Summer Wars is an anime movie that involves a computer-simulated virtual reality world. Many of its plots are very similar to Digimon: Our War Game, however, please don't post unless you seen the movie. I don't want to play ALL the Summer Wars characters.
Not for the first time, Koushiro 'Izzy' Izumi was worried.
He had bore witness to events merely a month ago. A rogue hacker AI called 'Love Machine' had torn through OZ, a social networking mainframe designed to replace the Internet. It had stolen millions of OZ accounts, and then launched the Arawashi, a probe satellite, at a nuclear power plant. It had given the time of its strike, and within that time, people around the world managed to stop Love Machine, seconds from disaster.
A perfect mirror of the events that the Chosen had dealt with Diaboromon.
Izzy had spotted the irony – OZ was designed to be virtually hacker-proof. Although the authorities had managed to contain the situation and dispel rumors, Izzy knew that the increased security around OZ was because the authorities did not want another Diaboromon on their hands. It was one of the reasons the DigiDestined didn't act to stop that AI. Their Digimon couldn't get through the OZ's defenses.
Its actions were what puzzled Koushiro. Why would an AI mimic the actions of a computer virus that existed four years before its own time?
The answer came from a student in Taiwan who had hacked the Pentagon. He had left the back door into the Pentagon's systems open during Diaboromon's attack, and it was he who had found out about the nuclear missile launched at Tokyo. He had re-entered the computers of the Pentagon and managed to procure the code of Love Machine's programming before the Pentagon tracked him down.
As of now, Izzy was staring hard at that code, comparing it with Diaboromon's coding.
"Izzy, please!" Tentomon, the bug on his bed, moaned. "Your eyes are going to square staring at the computer."
"That's not true." Koushiro replied, "That's a little kid's tale to get them to stop watching too much television."
Izzy had received the code and had been analyzing it for two weeks, isolated from everybody while he worked.
