[The holodeck seems to be a little like that one toy you get at Christmas which every kid wants to have a go at playing with, and if the surroundings visible through the sphere when it starts broadcasting are any indication, Lyle is no exception to the rule.

He must have been there for a few minutes because the thing's already been set to look like a pretty normal street, with the sun's shining on it. There's a young woman standing in the middle of this setting. Even if she wasn't pretty - which she is - she wouldn't be the sort of person you'd easily miss in a crowd, with her unusual colouring - light purple hair and red eyes aren't common even in Lyle's universe.

So where's Lyle in all this? He's standing off to one side with an odd smile on his face, not really doing anything other than watching.

Oh, and he hasn't realised that his sphere's on either. :D]

There was a group called Celestial Being that showed up and declared that its objective was to get rid of war. The idea was that they intervened in conflicts with these cutting-edge mobile suits. [shrugs again] Well, it worked in a way. The Union, the HRL and the AEU banded together to defeat them. Then the Earth Sphere Federation was formed to unite the world as one.

Or that was the theory, anyway.

[scratches his head] Yeah, worked in one way...

But that theory didn't exactly work, did it? This...Celestial Being didn't actually achieve it's correct objective, did it? I mean, you wouldn't be here talking to me about classified material otherwise, would you?

[shakes his head] Well, there weren't any more wars... at least, not officially. But the Federation's corrupt right down to the heart of it. It's the A-Laws that really have the power now, even if they say otherwise. Any countries that aren't in the Federation don't stand a chance anymore, and all the information is suppressed, but no one seems to want to know.

[sighs] At this rate, Doctor, we're heading for a world-wide dictatorship.
