It was a breakthrough when Delta and Sigma had teamed up. Their plan to become like full AIs seemed strong, and an alliance with Maine and Tex meant bringing Church in to provide a complete code for them was the final step.
But things had gone sideways when the final plan was executed. Church and Tex had been incapacitated, and though Maine held the line, York was captured. Their plan had been foiled and York is immediately taken to the lab to have Delta forcibly removed. He puts up a fight, tries to prevent the inevitable, but they subdue him and take the AI from him.
The last thing York remembers is being taken to the brig on the Mother of Invention. This wasn't supposed to happen; instead of finding himself in the holding cell he'd seen through the doorway, he's in this place of blinding whiteness instead.
He peers through the doorways, tries passing through them once or twice. Nothing works, and eventually he settles for leaning his hip against one of them, arms crossed, trying to figure out what kind of hallucination this is. Had they drugged him when they took D away? He can't remember.
