<<<<<< AFTERLIFE

SILICON VALLEY, CALIFORNIA, USA - QUANTUM LEAP

As William and Jane's company began to gain traction, so too did the attention of unwanted forces. The US military, intrigued by the potential implications of their technology, deployed a covert operation to infiltrate their research. Government agents, skilled in the art of surveillance, bugged their home, tapped their phones, and even hacked into their computers and smart devices.

Corporate espionage was also rampant. Rival tech companies, fearing the disruption their technology could cause, resorted to underhanded tactics. Hackers, sponsored by these corporations, launched cyberattacks, attempting to steal their intellectual property.

To counter these threats, William and Jane had to become increasingly secretive. They limited their digital footprint, avoiding the internet whenever possible. Sensitive discussions were held in person, and crucial documents were stored in physical safes. They installed advanced security systems, including motion sensors and hidden cameras, to deter intruders.

The initial euphoria of securing funding soon gave way to a harsh reality. As word of William's groundbreaking research spread, so too did the interest of less benevolent forces. Corporate espionage, government surveillance, and cyberattacks became a constant threat, an everyday occurrence.

The once peaceful home of William and Jane transformed into a fortress. Every electronic device, every line of code, became a potential vulnerability. They were forced to adopt extreme measures to protect their secrets.

With the divine guidance of Anubis, William and Jane devised a cunning plan. They set up decoy computers, infected with malicious software, to lure and trap their adversaries. These computers would not only expose the intruders but also cripple their systems.

The daring duo initiated an audacious counteroffensive, launching cyber attacks against their adversaries. Decoy computers, infected with malicious code, were deployed to lure and ensnare their attackers. As their enemies scrambled to contain the damage, William and Jane worked tirelessly to advance their research. These excursions into the world of espionage helped William to write some of the most advanced software. Software to take on and defeat military grade hackers, reliant on super nano computer speeds to unravel, thus beyond the capabilities of Chinese, Russian and US agencies, including the NSA and GCHQ, in the UK.

Anubis, ever watchful, observed the growing hostility of the spymasters, as each of their moves were anticipated and blocked. He saw the potential for a global conflict, a battle between technology and ethics. To protect William and Jane, he subtly influenced the minds of their adversaries, sowing discord and confusion within their ranks. He also empowered William and Jane, granting them the knowledge and skills to defend themselves.

Ever the strategist, the protector of the dead, ensured that the most persistent threats were met with swift and decisive retribution. He would subtly influence the minds of those who dared to cross William, leading them down paths of self-destruction.

The ever watchful Anubis, observed the growing threat. He saw the malicious intent of those who sought to hinder William's progress, no matter it was illegal. 

"Their greed will be their downfall," he declared to Isis. 

"We must guide William to counter their attacks."

Isis smiled knowingly. She would play her part.

In response to the escalating attacks, William and Jane established a clandestine facility, a hidden sanctuary where they could work undisturbed. They established a secret, heavily fortified facility, a hidden sanctuary for their most critical research. This clandestine location would be their last line of defense against those who would seek to steal their secrets.

This facility was equipped with state-of-the-art security measures, designed to thwart even the most sophisticated intrusions.

As a final act of defiance, they launched a series of cyber attacks against their adversaries. They developed sophisticated malware, capable of infiltrating the most secure networks. These attacks were designed to disrupt their operations, expose their malicious intentions, and deter future aggression.

This would have been illegal, had it not been a counter to the state sponsored mayhem. But, as a self-defense strategy, it was perfectly acceptable. The agencies in their quest to discredit 'The Kid,' would trip over their own dicks. Then get their privates caught in a mangle. Since, the tactics the agencies used were illegal and unconstitutional. Meaning, they could never admit that such devices were used against legitimate members of society.

It took a while, but their efforts paid dividends. Soon, would be attackers, became the attacked, their own secrets and illegal activities being exposed, much to the embarrassment of the US military. With DARPA's efforts being made public, the intrusions waned and finally stopped as Congress debated the ethics of such attacks. Jane though, was more distrusting. It was at her behest, that Will devised an exit strategy. Knowing that without a foolproof plan, they did not stand a chance. As the technology stakes increased, William and Jane found themselves in a high-risk game of cat and mouse.

They knew the agencies would eliminate them, given the chance.

OMEGA 1600 TC1 TIME COMPUTER LED 1973 - Omega "Time Computer I" aka TC1 is the first LED watch ever available for sales in Europe. Omega did not enter into the research field of digital watches, but subcontracted design of this LED watch to fill the gap in their portfolio. Omega TC's are based on Pulsar technology and contain late P2 modules that can be transplanted from corresponding Pulsars and Hamiltons.
