Geneva 2019 Mission

== Background ==
In December 2019, while accompanying Sarah Cunnington to Geneva for tests, Ethan Taylor secretly installed a remote uplink program under orders from Brent Hall, unaware (for the most part) of the extent of Hall's corrupt machinations. This program allowed Hall to access all data from the Eye without anyone knowing.
Following Hall's expulsion from the QIA in May 2020, he arranged for three files to be stolen from the London Hub's network. One of these files, omega.exe, allowed Hall to continue accessing the Eye.
In September 2020, Erik Draper, suspecting Hall had infiltrated the very highest levels of the Echelon, discovered that the former Director was still accessing the remote uplink program, and had Anna Vogel fabricate a mission so that Sarah and Anna could Jump back to Geneva and modify the program at its inception in 2019.
== Infraction ==
No infraction was involved initially, although technically Sarah and Anna's presence in 2019 caused an infraction.
== Mission Outline ==
Sarah Jumped with Anna to her suite in Geneva on 10th December 2019, then headed to the Orbit where the Cray supercomputers are stored, in a refrigerated unit. While Anna accomplished this with relative ease, she explained that she might need to reboot her subroutine after Ethan installed his program, meaning they had to go to the Cortex on the 11th December, just after Ethan had installed his software and then gone to rescue Sarah from Jonas Gessner's tests. However, once she had done so and they were making good their escape, they were interrupted by Marjorie MacFarland, who alerted the Erik of 2019 to their presence. Following a brief - and dangerous - conversation with Erik, he agreed to let them return to their own time. 
== Repercussions ==
While the subroutine was successful, and despite Erik already having known this would all happen (in a form of predestination paradox), the mission was ultimately unsuccessful at first as Anna came to realise that Hall's program required specific biometric protocols accessible only to either Hall or Ethan, and since Erik still did not fully trust Ethan yet, he refused - at first - to tell him about the mission.
