Operation Skuld

In order to reach Steins;Gate, save Shiina Mayuri and Makise Kurisu, and escape the Alpha/Beta Attractor Fields, Okabe Rintarou realised he needed three things- First, the motivation to get back on his feet in his darkest hour; Second, a plan to deceive time; Third, a way to convey that plan to his past self.

Re-Awaken
Awakening once more to his Hououin Kyouma persona, Okabe began creating the plan to deceive time with the help of Hashida Itaru and Hiyajo Maho. Working tirelessly through the Nuclear War, the trio began the project to search for the workaround for the Alpha/Beta Attractor field. To do this, they had to determine the key principles that governed each Attractor Field-


 * The first DMail sent undoes the death of Makise Kurisu, leading to her joining the Future Gadet Lab in July 2010, resulting in an Alpha worldline.
 * The death of Makise Kurisu, and the subsequent theft of her thesis and it's arrival in Russia in July 2010 results in a Beta Worldline.

With the core tenets of each Attractor Field discovered, they started work on a plan, realising the principles that needed to be fulfilled.


 * 1) Under no circumstances must Makise Kurisu or Shiina Mayuri come to harm
 * 2) Okabe Rintarou finds Makise Kurisu lying face down in a pool of blood
 * 3) The Time Travel Thesis must not fall into the hands of any government

Finally, Okabe must be primed to take the machine. In order to achieve Steins;Gate, Okabe must create a worldline based on these three principles in order to escape the doom on the Alpha and Beta lines.

The Plan
The first step is to get Okabe on his feet and primed for one more attempt- to do so, Shiina Mayuri must be allowed to travel in FG204 with Amane Suzuha, and deliver a message to her past self. In the message, she would prepare herself to get Okabe back on his feet following the first aborted attempt at achieving Steins;Gate.

Next, a message must be sent to Okabe, to be received the day of the plan. This message would decode only when the correct Beta Variant worldline was attained- inside would be a video containing the plan, explained by the only person who can be reliably called upon to rise to any challenge- Hououin Kyouma.

Third, Okabe must use the remaining fuel to jump once more back in time, to moments before his previous arrival, to achieve the three principles that will cause the shift to Steins;Gate.
