It took some time, even with her muse to to help, to undo the encryption but it wasn't a quantum encryption which meant that whoever put it in the archive expected no one that didn't have authorization to ever get access to it. The file finally 'popped' open after a few lucky tricks worked, but it was clear that the encryption would be much more complicated and time consuming with the files as she worked on the rest.<br/><br/>The data in the file confirmed that Akiko was DEFINITELY the person she was sent after, a sentinel that went by the name 'Cheshire'. The problem was that for all intents and purposes, unless they kept a fork of him for back up somewhere, Cheshire was almost completely gone. They had 'redacted' a lot of her past, wiping it clean from her mind along with extensive 'persona rebuilding' over an epic number of psycho-surgery sessions. Her async abilities were credited with her ability to recover from the more than two dozen 'adjustment sessions' that she had undergone. It was clear though that some points had been kept, like her async abilities and computer skills, but what she might have known was gone most likely.<br/><br/>For all intents and purposes Akiko was a distinct individual from the man who had entered the program, but there were enough hints in her psych profile to hint that if Cheshire had 'hidden' data like he was reputed to have done in the past, she'd be the only one who could find them. Her personality kept his impish sense of humor, outlook that transhumanity needed both the Inner and Outer system to perform their roles (though he pushed for a LOT more Inner system reform than Akiko had) and gift for programing things on the fly. They had make Akiko out of Cheshire, but how much of Cheshire remained in the woman who was 'training' her now.
