From: Alan Rikkin September 7, 6:47 Additional subjects Warren: If this kid isn’t going to get us what we need, it’s time to start looking elsewhere. I’ve cc’d David from our acquisition department. He may be able to provide you with a couple of additional test subjects should Desmond be retired. In case you need reminding, WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME. This crap with the fluoride enhancement is going to put us under a LOT of scrutiny. We need to launch on the 21st. If we any longer we risk everything being frozen during the investigation. I have a feeling that none of our friends in D.C. are going to do us any favor on this one. We’ll deal with them come election time. We’ve cleaned up the mess at DIA, but I’m hearing some jackass baggage handler trolling newsgroups and nut-job websites with his tales of mass murder and corporate cover-ups. Where’s he even getting his information from? Your report said the project lead killed everyone down there before our cleanup crew arrived. I still don’t understand how they manage to botch that so badly. Anyway, we’re trying to figure out who the hell he is so that we can shut him up. But it’s proving difficult. I’m beginning to wonder if he doesn’t have help. Seems there are some assassin bastards running loose. It only takes one. You already knew that. Makes me wonder if the fluoride leak was internal after all? And if it was; are we dealing with the whistle blower or something worse? I’m about ready to pull the plugs on your subject seventeen. So either get me results or get another person into that animus. -Alan

From: Alan Rikkin September 7, 8:00 Analysis Warren: The other and I have finished reviewing the animus recordings from subjects 12-16. While the piece of Eden remains our priority, we must all continue working to locate and understand the remaining artifacts. I am sure you can understand our reasoning behind this. Although the satellite is intended to accomplish a fair portion of the work for us, we will certainly need to deal with those who are either immune to - or protected from – its effects. Please take a moment to look over our findings and get back to me with any feedback you may have. I will summarize below: Piece of Eden (no. 3) – We applaud your continued efforts to locate an alternative artifact following the loss of no. 2 in the DIA satellite accident. We understand subject seventeen is having trouble interfacing the animus, leading to delays. As a result, we estimate another 24 hours before your next critical update. In the meantime, we’ll prepare an extraction team and set them to stand by. We’re relying on you to obtain additional information we require. He knows where the objects are – even if he doesn’t realize it. You MUST unlock that final memory or all of this will have been for nothing. Philadelphia project – Data provided from animus subject twelve indicates that the ship briefly manifested in a future state for approximately 18 minutes minutes. It is unclear whether the timeline is consistent with or parallel to our own. Although we have recovered enough data to reconstruct and repair the original artifact used in the experiment, administration has refused to move forward on the project, citing paradox concerns. Corporate policy remains in place: any objects found to interfere with or manipulate time must be contained. Artifacts will be moved to secure storage. Tunguska incident – Now believed to be a direct result of assault by assassins. Research station destroyed as was artifact. Alternative wave generation devices have been located in the storage, but we have insufficient data at the moment to initiate research. The risk of accident is too high. Lineage discovery and acquisition division should attempt to locate any descendants of any attack survivors (either the assassins or brotherhood) in order to continue research. Resurrecting this particular type of technology will aid us greatly in any holdouts following the satellite’s activation. We’re putting together a team to push research in this area. Grail – We are removing the Grail from our list of objectives. There is insufficient evidence to confirm its existence. Current examination of subject seventeen indicates that aside from Piece of Eden, all other artifacts related to Christ-figure are literary devices (or derived from Piece of Eden) and not actual objects. Even if the object is real, its use to us at this stage is negligible. Our resources are better used elsewhere. Mitchell-Hedges Communicators – Analysis of the objects is complete. The good news is that they work. As a result, we have a safe and secure communication channel for use after the launch. However, they are severely limited in number, and so we will be providing them to our most essential facilities. You will obviously retain possession of the one you have. Warren, I can’t stress how important that you wrap things with subject seventeen and soon as possible. We’re obviously relieved that you seem to be closing in onto the targeted memory, but you need to step it up. Everything we’re working towards depends on your retrieving those locations. Without them, we’ve got nothing. May The Father of Understanding guide you to success. A.R.

From: Abstergo_News_Wire_Services September 8, 15:37 Daily headlines Talks continues regarding aftermath of L-11 outbreak: Nearly six years later, little progress has been made in dealing with the repercussions of what history books now refer to as “The Second Plague” With nearly 96% of its population decimated over a 3-months period, the continent of Africa is now virtually uninhabited.

From: Lucy Stillman September 8, 3:13 Subject No. 16 Warren: I’ve finished my report on subject sixteen. You should take a look when you have some time as I believe it validates my belief that we should be treating them with great care. Failure to do so will only result in further breakdowns. I’ll summarize things for now since I realize you’re probably pretty busy. Prolonged exposure to the animus caused a “bleeding effect” Within Subject Sixteen’s genetic structure. The result was a blending of genetic and real-time memory. He became unable to distinguish his own life from those of his ancestors, as witnessed with the incident in his room. I believe this effect is similar to certain forms of multiple personality and delusional disorders. People who claim to be experiencing the past life or the presence of other minds within their own are quite possibly experiencing a naturally occurring version of this bleeding effect. Though the specific symptoms may vary from subject to subject, the end result is the same: They lose their minds. This is what I believe happened to subject sixteen, one of his ancestors seems to have been involved in an important event in the ancient Far East. The wall writings he left us defy any conventional explanation, though I’m not ready to dismiss them just yet, per your request, I’ve asked for a linguist and historians to research them further in case there is some significance. I’ll let you know if they come back to us with anything. I’ll get you a full copy of the report so that you can review my findings when you have the time. I know this is not that important to you Warren, but it would mean a lot to me if you’d just take a look and think about it. We don’t need to push them so hard. We don’t need to kill them. From a practical perspective, there’s no point in destroying the subjects anymore. Once they are dead, their knowledge is lost to us forever. And we both know how dangerous that can be. Thanks for your time! -Lucy
