The story begins...
Jamie stood in front of the burnt out shell, that was once her laboratory. The picturesque buildings of Charlestone University stood around it like mourners at a funeral.
All her work was gone, all the time, the research, lost. The fire had interrupted the backup to Cloud storage, and all that was left was one back up disc she had taken home by chance one night months ago before the Cloud storage was set up.
Clicking off her torch, Jamie trudged across campus to her temporary office, she only had two weeks, two weeks to put together all the information she had lost before she had to stand up in front of the World University Conference and deliver her speech.
Jamie flicked on the light and sat heavily in her chair as her laptop whirled to life. She flinched as a sharp knock at the door echoed through the empty room, “Come in,” Jamie droned.
Sitting, defeated by the monstrous task ahead of her Jamie wondered who could it be...
“Hi, I’m Jack the university sent me to help you?”
“Hi, I’m Kate the university sent me to help with your research”
“Hi, I’m Ferdinand the university sent me to help you.”
