0xea9e2c4: My predecessor...
0xea9e2e8: George Sears.
0xea9e308: That was the name the public came to know him by.
0xea9e38c: He was the third Snake, preceded by Solid and Liquid...
0xea9e402: project.
0xea9e41c: Neither Solid nor Liquid, he was a well-balanced masterpiece
0xea9e46c: that the Patriots saw fit to entrust with the Presidency.
0xea9e4b8: However, he fell out of grace with the organization four years ago
0xea9e510: when, acting on his own, he started an incident.
0xea9e554: Four years ago... Shadow Moses?
0xf533aa4: That's right...
0xf533ac4: Arsenal. We're talking about an impregnable fortress
0xf533b0c: carrying a load of over a couple of thousand missiles
0xf533b54: including nuclear warheads --
0xf533b84: all protected by a horde of mass-produced Metal Gear RAY units.
0xf533bd8: Mass-produced...?
0xf533bfc: The RAY unit was originally designed for the Marines
0xf533c44: to be used as a countermeasure
0xf533c74: against the Metal Gear variations throughout the world.
0xf533cc0: The Patriots had RAY redesigned to protect the new Arsenal Gear.
0xf533d14: So now anti-Metal Gears are guarding a Metal Gear?
0xf533d58: Ironic, isn't it?
0xf533d7c: That's not all.
0xf533da0: Arsenal Gear has full access to the Military's Tactical Network,
0xf533df4: giving it the ability to exercise absolute control over our nation's armed forces,
0xf533e58: not to mention our nuclear armament.
0xf533e90: In short, Arsenal was created to be the core of our country.
0xf533ee0: What kind of idiotic weapon --?
0xf533f10: Weapon? No. You're not seeing the full picture.
0xf533f68: Arsenal Gear is more than just a military tool...
0x10632254: This is no ordinary nuclear bomb.
0x10632288: This weapon is capable of heavy hydrogen nuclear fusion
0x106322d4: using lasers and magnetics to generate heat-insulated compression.
0x1063232c: It was a top secret project initiated by the current President...
0x10632380: and Solidus has no idea of its existence.
0x106323bc: The clean thermonuclear bomb is at an experimental stage
0x10632408: and is handled differently.
0x10632434: Specifically, it becomes launch-capable when Arsenal is activated.
0x1063248c: A nuclear threat still exists.
0x106324bc: Six months ago, we lost everything we believed in...
0x10632504: We were abandoned to take the fall in their cover up.
0x1063254c: We were labeled as killers responsible for the mass-murder of civilians
0x106325a8: as well as our own allies.
0x106325e4: believed every word,
0x1063260c: turning a deaf ear to whatever we had to say to the contrary.
0x1063265c: Our only goal is to wipe them from the face of the earth --
0x106326ac: and destroy this world of deceit they have created along with them.
0x10632704: You're insane.
0x10632724: Insane?
0x1063273c: We might be the only ones telling the truth...
0x11a74a84: I remembered my brother giving me a piggyback ride...
0x11a74acc: I was sleeping with my ear against his back...
0x11a74b0c: I could hear his heartbeat...
0x11a74b3c: Sounds like you were close.
0x11a74b68: We were... back then.
0x11a74b90: We were stepchildren in our parent's second marriages.
0x11a74bd8: Wherever my brother went, I used to tag along...
0x11a74c1c: My brother didn't have any close friends,
0x11a74c58: so he used to take care of me.
0x11a74c88: We both wanted to be loved so much...
0x11a74cc0: so much that we used to pretend...
0x11a74cf4: Pretend?
0x11a74d44: My brother was the husband and I was the wife.
0x11a74d84: But it was always just make believe... we were only kids.
0x11a74dd0: You know what I mean?
0x11a74df8: I never had a family... but I think I know what you mean.
