Target.EXE

The screen flickered constantly, but I had no time for that, as I tried to remember my programming skills from 25 years ago. Because of course the computer controlling the nuclear missile heading towards New York was that old.


I suddenly hit a roadblock, and closed my eyes as I tried to remember how to instigate a cache clear, when I heard the computer switch off.


I opened my eyes to see the idiot private turning the computer back on.


"Screen was buggy, just resetting it."


I went to scream when the screen came on and requested new target data.
