7 Future Plans...

July 3, 2006 Eric's apartment

Eric POV

"Athena, I've been thinking" I look at Athena who's been busy quite lately, she even ask for a room on the basement for her own projects and of course being the good father that I am I accepted with the condition that she don't become Skynet, (the response that I got is both funny and Horrifying, she said "why would I enslave humanity? Humans require too much maintenance if ever I would just nuke every human but that would be too inefficient instead what I'll do is create worker drones, then create spaceships, worker would then mine asteroid then create more drones and lastly with enough resources I would be able to create my own empire in space") yeah that conversation was very awkward

Athena then replied "Of what father?"

"Of the plan you said the other night" I said

"Enslaving humankind?" she quip

"What!? No!? I mean the Asteroid Mining part, I mean I can create any materials but it would be too inefficient" I said as I draft a plan on a space ship "and the worker drones are good ideas too"

"hmm.. it's possible but getting into the industry would be really hard and Elon Musk would be a tough opponent" Athena said which is mostly true, Elon Musk is a Genius but most of all his a survivor but I just got the perfect plan to deal with Elon Musk so I replied "don't worry about Musk because I'll handle him,

Athena looks at me in the eyes with a look that says " you're going to do something idiotic again " and says to me "we can just barge in to any spaceX office and say "WE WANT YOUR COMPANY".

"Wait! We can't? I was just about to do just that" I said to sighing Athena

"Sigh… I have downloaded so many things in your brain father and not one of them gave you common sense." Athena said to me "I'm going to directly contact Elon Musk and propose a deal that we are going to buy 50 percent of the company and use the Project Atlas as a leverage but to do that we need money so either I hack the world bank or you create something to sell so what is it"

"hmm… okay sell the diamonds to our previous contact and be sure that you delete any trail you left behind" I said to her as stand up from were I am sitting the proceeded to open the door I then added "but first activate the 3D printer and print the parts needed for the worker drone"

"and you Father what are you going to do?" she ask and I look at her then said "Me? I'm going to take a walk"

*********

Wondering the streets at night I can't help but notice my Cliché sense is tingling; I don't know how I obtain this power but it just kind of pop up a while back, and maybe this is the fabled cosmic awareness?

Sure thing though taking a corner I heard a scream in an alley way

"Help me please!"

"Sigh… My conscience will kill me if I don't do something about this" I may have said that I won't become hero but for my comrades, I'll do this just this once.

Unknown girl's POV

'Maybe I should have think this through, I shouldn't have run away from orphanage,

But even then something bad would have happened ' I said but when I turned to a corner I saw someone being assaulted by five thugs 'oh shit I'm so screwed what should I do save the woman? Call the police or..or...-' but before I can finish my word something happened a stone hit the lights making it flicker on and off, the thugs turn around and pointed a gun at a silhoutte of a person who appeared below the lamp post it was too dark to make out his face but again the lights flickered out and the silhouette vanish along with the thug closest to him

The thugs began to panic

"What the Fuck! Eddie where are you!" Thug boss

"Shit bos-" thug number 2 didn't get to finish his word as a hand reach out from the dark choking him while dragging him to the shadows same with the other 2 a hand shot up from the dark and knock them both out

"Brock! Greg! Fred! Shit!" The boss shouted as he then pointed his gun to a corner where he heard a noise and out of panic he emptied a full clip into the shadows

Click!

Click!

"Shit!" The boss slowly step back as he drop his gun and pulled out a knife "where are you!" He shouted

Someone then answered from his back "Here" a punch sailed through from the dark knocking out the thug boss, soon after the boss was down steps echoed throughout the alley as a man with dark hair and piercing blue eyes slowly walks out of the dark towards the woman he then lend down a hand he said "are you okay?"

The woman timidly accepted his hands and nod she meekly said "Thank you for saving me, if not for you this pieces of scum would have rape me"

"It's nothing just doing what a good citizen would do, next time try and stay home at night okay? He said as he turns around my direction "well anyways I've gotta go"

The guy started walking in my direction but then the woman grab his hand she said "wait can I know your name?"

"Ahh my name is Eric miss..."

"Darcy...my name is Darcy" the girl said and then kiss the guy on the cheek "Thank you again for everything and call me" she added while also slipping a calling card on his pocket shen then turned around and proceeded to walk towards the open street

The guy seems to smile then look at were I'm hiding "you can come out now"

'Shit he knows!'

I slowly walk out towards the light as the man walk and came to a stop infront of me

"So who are you?" He said with a raise eyebrow

"I...I'm Ann- I mean my name is Annie Cable " I said as the man's eye widened as one word came out from his mouth
