The First Age - Sphinx Control the Towers

The last final task was not something Sage enjoyed doing, but he said he would. Hijacking a completely network for someone else was not a talent Sage wanted to possess. He could, and he did, but he didn't like it. And whenever he was tasked with a job he always sent it to 5ph1nx. He was better at it than he was. And Sphinx enjoyed the work.

But Sage didn't like talking to him either. He was thankful he'd never met the person behind the avatar, his personality was grating on Sage.

Ph453r: Got a job for you?

5ph1nx: AGAIN?

Ph453r: I need you to capture the airwaves of Africa. Anything and everything. Control is to go to Legion Premiere.

5ph1nx: I CAN'T KEEP IT?

Ph453r: No.

5ph1nx: COME ON, JUST ONE?

Ph453r: No

5ph1nx: FINE!

Sage sighed and let it go. He had agreed and now Sage could get back to his normal routine. He had promised and he would deliver. It might be a while, but he would.

Hacking into another country was never an easy task but when Phaser provided the security anything was possible. He had a reputation for a reason - he was faster than most hackers out there. A mere thought away. His buddy allowed him access to the server, it was a protected tunnel in but he knew the hacker would be watching his every move. There was no way he could do anything else except capture the Sierra Leone comms towers without Phaser knowing it. Trying would mean being banned from the den and the collective and that was not a possibility. Sage distrusted him because of what he specialized in, but Sage gave him legit work. It might not be legal, but it was going to pay well and probably keep him out of jail.

A map on the server served as a status for Phaser's knowledge. The red dots would start lighting up the moment the towers were captured. Everything inside Freetown was now property of Legion Premiere. There was little resistance in removal security and implementing his own to maintain the connection.

Traffic wasn't restricted yet, but with a few keystrokes it could all come crashing down. The thought had crossed his mind. But Phaser would be angry. He'd rather not face his ire.

The rest of the country would be the Legions in two days at this rate. There were plenty of towers to grab and reconfigure. Two days for Sierra Leone. He couldn't wait to get to the rest of Africa.
