Page 9 in PITS #2 Project Lillypad

Below is a random page from "Psychosis in the System Part 2: Project Lillypad". Human emotions can overwhelm even stronger minds. Place this mind into an AI robot, who knows what will happen? Out in space, no one can hear the voices in your head. How long will it take before the voices become your own?
{Each vial was a different color, so about twenty different substances to find. The first five were low-grade sleepers, another five were low-grade poisons, and there were five vials of venoms from the most lethal reptiles possible. The sixteenth vial matched the substance that was injected into me earlier, it was a combustion of venom and poison.}
{The last four were high-grade blood pressure medications, each of which was triple the normal potency. Which means it would take one vial to kill twenty people, at least. Whatever Gaia was planning, she had to have help to do it. The sound of the radio picking up a single caught us off guard.}

[Major General Lampton] Staff Sergeant Lucky, are you there? This is Lampton on Mars, over.
[Lucky] We hear you, Major Lampton, over. Did you get my report on our surprise?
[Major General Lampton] I did, both Date and I are just as surprised as you. Did you find which vial Gaia used on Jupiter?
[Smith] Yes, we added that to the report notes. We’re not sure how an entire fishing box could be missed during checks. I was wondering if you could give us some clues, if possible.
[Major General Lampton] Date is working on that part as we speak, we don’t know either. It must have been someone that Gaia trusted above all else. As well as access to your spacecraft, is Jupiter awake?
[Jupiter] Yes, Major Lampton, sir. How may I help you?
[Major General Lampton] I am sending coordinates to your first scouting mission, set the coordinates and report back when you arrive outside the atmosphere of this planet. I’ll need an analysis of the atmosphere, we need to see if life is possible and if your radio will work once on the surface.
[Hawk] Is there life already there?
[Major General Lampton] We can’t say for sure, Date sent a group a few years back and they never returned as planned. These people may have bred with whatever life forms were there, so you might meet hybrid beings. So I took the liberty of making sure you have the weapons that will handle anything you find. Whether hostile or peaceful, please announce when you have the coordinates set Jupiter.
