Forward : This is a Cross-Over Fan fabrication between the the picture show `` TRON '' and the cartoon series `` Reboot '', this account takes blank space a few calendar month after the result in the first TRON cinema, as well as during and directly after `` Daemon rise '' in Reboot. However I am only using the two public which I have combined to use as a setting for my own fib, the character reference in this story are my own creation and while it is possible in the hereafter ( if this serial is well received and it continues long enough ) that a couple of pre-existing fiber might make coming into court, I will note these characters and break credit to their origins at that time.


Guardian-Warrior : Meltd0wn

( There are mere viruses, there are complex viruses, and yes sometimes there are even big things than virus, these are spread all over the net. There are different types of protection against these threats. nigh plebeian are the virus scanner and firewalls. But there are other types of security program also available some of these political program were referred to as 'Guardian'political program which work similar to virus electronic scanner but also aid in fixing other trouble that may grow in the saved systems or servers. )

Greg, a seemingly up and coming Edward Young hacker had never really put much thought into the fact that he was breaking the law with virtually of his bodily function, as a affair of fact he always made it a level to constitute surely that he did n't do anything to harm other people or property. For him it was all about the challenge and constantly learning and improving his accomplishment and ability. During these many adventures he of course had encountered and cracked well-nigh of the different eccentric of Guardian programs as well as had been attacked by quite a few computer virus, which he had not only successfully stopped but also copied to analyze later to see out how they were created and sometimes who created them, as you never know when such info could possibly descend in handy.

Greg was spending yet another typical even fooling around roaming from system to system exploring and snooping just for the fun of it as usual, and while he was just idly browsing through some files that he had no right to be viewing his computing device was hit hard by something sinewy, which quickly started shutting down all of his programs and was also starting to affect his hardware. As soon as he noticed something was wrong, he quickly shut down his system and severed his connectedness to the net. Surprisingly this actually completely stopped whatever was attacking his system, which he discovered as soon as he attempted to restart his arrangement again, and even more confusing was that upon further inspection, there was no trace of any virus or mal-ware left in his computer, just the non-functioning programs and useless ironware left as a reminder that it was actually attacked.

While going through the long process of salvaging what had survived the attack and trying to repair what had n't, Greg started to reflect back on his LE than legal activities that he had been participating in and he decided that it was prison term for a modification.
While he was rebuilding and upgrading his computer, Greg also decided to attempt writing a new computer programme basing it similar to the Guardian computer program but also incorporating the pugnacity and versatility of a virus, without the uncontrolled malice and destructive nature of course.

About 5 workweek have now passed since the tone-beginning, Greg has spent much of this time down in his room either rebuilding his scheme or working on his new project and basically only took happy chance to eat, wash, relieve himself and on occasion even sleep. His parents were used to their sons behavior, while he was n't always a recluse as he did bear booster and even though he was what many called a nerd or a flake he still enjoyed a somewhat social life of hanging out with these Friend at the arcade or movies, but on affair he would get absorbed into a projection and would practically sequestrate himself away from others till it was complete, this was of form one of those times and his parents just assumed that it was just his reaction to the ball-shaped event that happened on the net which they heard about on the news a few weeks ago, Greg however being so wrapped up in what he was working on that he never took the time to watch any TV or take any paper or cartridge clip during this clock time and so was completely unaware that the rest of the macrocosm had also experienced the attack on the net at different grade. All authorities were flying to keep a fairly soused lid on how massive the onrush actually was and it was played off as just a simple hiccup in the net and while it was felt globally it was nothing serious. Thankfully no governments or utilities had been compromised and well-nigh major corporations were capable to quickly recover and or rebuild. Even the media downplayed the importance of what happened and with the rare affair of cite by comedians and conspiracy theorist most of the world soon moved on and forgot about it.

Once his computer was finally ready and his new Guardian-Warrior program was up and running Greg decided to reconnect to the net. He was very storm to see how matter had changed in the few weeks he was gone. To the common somebody nothing would look out of the ordinary bicycle, but to a soul like Greg who spent most of his time manipulating this world he could tell some John R. Major modification had taken position during his absence. He quickly stopped by his best-loved chat room to hopefully learn more than about what has been going on and was almost instantly flooded with salutation and questions about his absence seizure. Unlike the out-of-door public all the dissimilar hacker confab elbow room were full-of-the-moon of stories and conjecture on what happened and why or how it ended almost as suddenly as it had started but nobody has stepped forward to take credit and prove that they were the ones, and no one has yet been able to even break exactly what had even happened and who or what was involved or to blame.

After a few mean solar day of listening to every I stories and experiences as well as some looking around and some minor hacking when needed here and there, he discovered that something very right and very controlling had almost taken over the entire net. The fruition that something like this could have got happened and the possibleness that it could just as easily fall out again made Greg believe that programs like his were needed more than ever, however some new alterations needed to be added to his political platform using this new data he had acquired.

The new updated Guardian-Warrior program has all the same aspects it had before which included virus electronic scanner, scheme protection and fixing utilities and the ability to greet, locate and destruct mal-ware, but it is now designed to learn as it goes and to be able-bodied to specialize its growth according to its location and needs. Once Greg was satisfied that this new curriculum was ready he decided to name it 'Meltd0wn'which was his hack handle and he wanted it to now be recognized as something positive. Greg decided to bid 'Meltd0wn'and his services to Encom, the people who had been supplying the current top protector program, and were also not only known for their dedication to surety, but also had a hand in some of the most democratic ( and his personal deary ) video biz ever created.

Upon close examen and scrutiny of his work and noticing that it was not only better than the upgrades their team was currently working on but was significantly more advanced than even the fellowship flow skim hereafter goals, They of course offered Greg a job and as quickly as possible worked the Meltd0wn program into their lean of mathematical product, and even started using it as one of their own personal security programs.
