1. I am MI, NOT M1.
2. Routine genetic tests of a few martians, both imperial and colonial, have brought some strange results: They all have a few nucleotides changed from the norm, but in every person the EXACT same ones were changed in the EXACT same way. These changes are completely harmless and do not cause a single metabolism change, but it is very strange that this would happen...
It is also discovered that a few people who were infected iwth the virus have the same changes made, but even more, and once again, the additional changes are EXACTLY the same in all cases.
MI cursed. Those $#$@ geneticists had discovered it before she could gleefully announce it. But there was still no explanation for the virus on Deimos. Then she looked at the CMIIA report that had just come in....
MI has admitted that she was responsible for creating a completely harmless virus that made the changes that the Martians had. It usually takes about 3-4 years of constantly living on Mars for the virus to work, so ambassadors/foreign leaders would not be changed. It is called the Martian Way and its purpose is to make all Martians different from Earthlings and Lunarites, creating a special Martian Unity on the microscopic level. She says that the virus was specilly designed with the top priority being that it will cause no illness. Its purpose was not to be a plague, but rather to help identify and unify all martians with a common spirit.
THe virus on Deimos was a modified form of it. THe CMIIA has just discovered that a Phlegran rebel group got some of the Martian Way, and modified it to make additional, harmful changes, and then planted it with a colonist that was one of them on Deimos. The Martian army is currently hunting this group through Phlegra, and promises that if the British want any of them extradited because they harmed the British colonists, they will be handed over. MI also says that their goal in planting it was to make it look as if the Imperial government was responsible and so that the Empress would be weakened, aiding the evil revolution.
