'''OpAphid''' is the codename of an operative who has done work for both [[the Order]] and [[TAAG]]. She once ran the [[OpAPHID|Operation APHID]] division of the Order, using forceful tactics, drugs, and deception to work against [[Bree|Bree Avery]]'s wishes. Sometime after Bree's death via [[Ceremony]], OpAphid discovered the truth that the Order had betrayed her, and began working against them with [[Brother]].<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
===Watch Your Step===<br />
[[Image:OpAphid.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Operation APHID's logo, which appears at the end of most videos.]]<br />
OpAphid can be traced back to her first appearance, the video [[You Made the Right Choice, Bree!]], in response to Bree's [[My Difficult Decision]] video. OpAphid has since posted comments and videos to [[Bree]], [[Daniel]], and [[Cassieiswatching]]. These are generally warnings, some of them nicer than others, that insinuate that OpAphid is connected to Bree's religion, and that [[Cassie]] and Daniel should watch their step carefully.<br />
<br />
Along with warning Cassie and Daniel about watching their step, OpAphid seemed to be documenting her battles with Resistance operative [[Tachyon]] and Tachyon's partner, Brother. At some point, Tachyon broke into one of Operation APHID's storage departments. OpAphid was outraged at this, and decided to go after her, taking use of her cell phone and other things. Even later, OpAphid hired [[the Cowboy]] to kidnap Daniel, whom she then [[Miss Me?|drugged]].<br />
<br />
===Missing or Not?===<br />
Later, [[Nikki Bower]] reported that OpAphid was missing, along with Tachyon and Brother. Fans believed Nikki, but OpAphid logged into her [[YouTube]] account on May 24th, 2007, leaving this message:<br />
{{Quote|OpAphid|right there above you<br />
right there above you<br />
<br />
right there above you<br />
<br />
Oh dear.<br />
<br />
--<br />
<br />
Rumors of MY death have been greatly exaggerated...<br />
<br />
Some things are secret for a reason. There are people whose lives are dedicated to keeping<br />
<br />
them that way.}}<br />
Fans have speculated many meanings to the message, including [[Gemma]] still being alive, or the message being a Cassie-esque sign-off.<br />
<br />
===New Agenda===<br />
[[Image:Remember Me.jpg|thumb|right|200px|OpAphid remembers her childhood.]]<br />
More recently, OpAphid has been seen in the [[Redearth88]] storyline. She sent out her agent, [[War Pylol]], to kidnap [[Maddison Atkins]], but he was killed trying. OpAphid herself then [[Worth The Wait?|kidnapped]] [[Linc]] and [[Rachel]]. Linc was never seen again, but Rachel was set free sometime later. Sometime later, OpAphid discovered the truth - that the Order had ruined her life, her childhood, and her family. She posts a [[Remember Me?|video]] telling her "former associates" they should have killed her when they had the chance.<br />
<br />
Brother has left messages on his YouTube account confirming OpAphid's departure from the Order, even saying that they are "married." Tachyon has said that Brother is crazy for working with OpAphid, and obviously doesn't believe she's changed. Tachyon has since gone undercover as [[Aly Zarin]] rooming with Rachel. As Aly, Tachyon has said that she used to live with her [[Aly's brother|brother]] (obviously referring to Brother) and [[Aly's sister-in-law|sister-in-law]] (which some think refers to OpAphid, since the two call themselves "married").<br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
*While [[Glenn Rubenstein]] still worked on [[lonelygirl15]], there was discussion that OpAphid would end up being [[Elizabeth Avery|Bree's mother]]. Similarities between the two remain to this day, including their [[Bree Phone Home|insane tempers]], their [[Mystery Movies|dislike of the relationship]] between Bree and her father, [[Drew Avery|Drew]], and their former/present [[Hiding In The Bathroom|high ranks]] in [[the Order]].<ref>[http://lg15today.blogspot.com/2008/01/what-time-is-itcoverage-of-glenn-on_16.html LG15 Today: WHAT TIME IS IT?...Coverage of Glenn on BreeFM]</ref><br />
