L.A 2

Alex and Martha entered into their shared room together which was a five star hotel. Which greatly shocking Martha at the luxury of the room.

"Wow, I never thought I would be able to stay in a place like this. " Said Martha as she looked at the large open room.

" Young, sir would you like me put your lagged in the room. " Asked the hotel steward.

" Yes, please thank you. " Replied Alex. Taking out a ten dollar tip from his pocket and handed over to the steward.

As Alex tip the steward, his mother who still in disbelief at the moment. Walking up and down looking everything the room had to offer.

Alex than went to the bedroom where their was a signal queen size bed. Laying down on the bed closing his eyes. As he took slow deep breathes to claim down his crazily beating heart turning his thoughts to his future plans.

This is what Alex had recently been doing to help calm himself down and it seemed to be working for him. As he thought went somewhere else.

With his parents sitting up Amazen this which in the future. help him move into the entertainment industry very easily in the future.

Amazen in the pervious timeline entered the streaming market in 2016 but, now Alex had already setup up Natflix within Amazen from the very beginning.

However, streaming movies and tv series online wouldn't be possible now. Alex still needed the internet to grow further. It had only been 8 years now since the internet was launched.

For now it would be best to set up a television channels under the name his parents finally choose. For live action and animated show hopefully before tv series like 'Friends.'

Began their production which was only four years away. He also had thoughts about entering the music industry as well later on as well.

"Huh.. there so much to do and so little time." Alex thought to himself. If one were to ask Alex if he flet any regrets about his actions now.

He would answer with a definite 'NO' as anyone in his position. Receiving the same amount of knowledge he did would certainly do something similar to what his doing. The only difference would be in how they want about it.

Alex would still help those he flet deserve it, while others he wouldn't even bother with them. For example Jeff Bezas, if one were to look into the working environment of employees at Amazen. Were treated like and not to mention his dealings with the government.

Alex had gained a lot of secrets information on certain individual and organization contained within the Apuls helmet. Which was slowly being turned into a weapon by the US government. By transferring certain information to others using the device.

Thankfully for Alex their main were focused on how much information and certain skills could be transferred into certain individual mind without breaking. Alex currently had knowledge on various fields of study and some memories of certain individual with personal experience.

For example he didn't have any personal experience in game creation just the information and skills required for it. While on the other hand it could be said that he had decades of personal experience in programming and engineering form it's creator.

"Alex.. honey are you a sleep?" Hearing his mother calling him.Alex open his eyes to his mother looking at him attentively.

"No, mother I've just been sorting out my thoughts. How about you enjoying all the room has to offer." Asked Alex

"Yes, I was just thinking about going out later and have a look around LA. I also think it's about time you get a haircut young man."

Said Martha as she gently touched Alex hair which was currently tied up into a ponytail. That reached all the way to the back of his neck.

"You really think so?" Asked Alex. He also began stroking his hair.

"Yes, I think it is time you have a haircut young man. I honestly wouldn't want you meeting Steven Spielberg with such an appreance." Berated Martha

"What did you just say Steven Spielberg going to be at the signing?" Asked Alex

"David just got off the phone and informed me that his personally wants to meet with you tomorrow." Answered Martha

After talking for a bit more Alex and Martha decided to go out together to see LA for themselves and do a bit of shopping.

David also tagged along with the mother and son duo to also get a haircut. Thankfully for the three of them they had been provided a chauffeur to take them where they needed.

Firstly Alex and David were both drop off near a Barbara shop in the middle of the city located near Hollywood Boulevard.

Hollywood Boulevard is a major east–west street in Los Angeles, California. It begins in the east at Sunset Boulevard in the Los Feliz district and proceeds to the west as a major thoroughfare.

Through Little Armenia and Thai Town, Hollywood. Parts of the boulevard are popular tourist destinations, primarily the fifteen blocks between Gower Street west. To La Brea Avenue where the Hollywood Walk of Fame is located.

After getting out of the car Alex and David could help but, looking around briefly in amazement. At the bustling beautiful scenery of LA.

"David place take care of Alex place while you're in there. I'll be at the salon just ." Asked Martha as she also wanted to get her hair and nails done.

"Don't worry nothing going to happen to Alex while I'm here. I am his godfather after all so be rest assured." Replied David

"Okey then the two of you have fun now and Alex be sure listen to David ok honey."

"Yes, mother you need to worry about anything." Replied Alex as he waved his mother good bye. As the chauffeur drove off to take his mother to a salon.

"So Alex do you have any future plans to move to Los Angeles." Asked David as he looked at Alex.

"Not really, it will be likely a place I may have to probably visit frequently." Replied Alex.

Who naturally new the darker side of fame and Hollywood in detail.

It wasn't a place where he would ever call home but, it would certainly be one of the places he would regularly spends most of his time.

"Huh.. really I didn't expect that answer? And I don't really understand what you mean by that but, anyway we should probably head in now."

David opened the door for Alex after the two of them entered into the shop. They were greeted of a black and white chessboard floor. Multiple leather chairs facing several mirrors in a straight line.

All of the seats were taken up by other customers, while others set right behind them. David and Alex quickly found seats and set together as many of the customers and barbers stared at the two of them curiously.

As the two of them weren't regular customers here and because of Alex appearance. Which anyone could tell was mixed from his light brown skin and long curly black hair that was tied in a ponytail.

What caught their attention even more was Alex bright hazel eyes which none of them had ever seen.

Alex wasn't too bothered by the odd stares he received from others especially his hazel eyes. It's natural eye color and there was nothing to be ashamed of.

David didn't say anything about the stairs Alex is getting after seeing Alex wasn't too concerned about it. Seeing same magazine and comic books on a stand near the entrance of the shop. David got up and walked towards the stand grabbed two magazines and a few comic books. Then walked back to his seat and handed Alex the comics.

"We might be here for a while so you can read this comics to pass the time." After saying that David opened up one of the magazines and began reading it quietly. Leaving Alex to star down at his hands looking at the comics he was handed.

Which were The Amazing Spider-Man issue 12, Batman issue 16, X-Men issue 23 and She hulk issue 6. Alex wasn't too into reading comics books but, decided to read them any now too pass the time. Right now Marvel comics still had most of the flim rights to most of their characters.

"Godfather what do you think about Universal Studios giving up the right to the tv series right to The Incredible Hulk. If I were to buy Marvel and offer up a good deal. Said Alex as he opened up the issue of She-Hulk and began reading.

"Do you mean CBS?" Asked David as he turned away from his magazine and asked Alex

Alex: "CBS?"

David: "Yes, if I remember correctly I've seen it aired on played on CBS several years ago?"

Thinking for a bit Alex quickly want through the information and memories he had on the current ownership of live action series of hulk.

The series aired on the CBS television network and starred Bill Bixby as Dr. David Banner, Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk, and Jack Colvin as Jack McGee.The series' 80 episodes were originally broadcast by CBS over five seasons from 1978 to 1982.

In 1988, the filming rights were purchased from MCA/Universal by New World Television for a series of TV movies to conclude the series' story line. The broadcast rights were, in turn, transferred to rival NBC. New World (which at one point owned Marvel) produced three television films:

The Incredible Hulk Returns (directed by Nicholas J. Corea), The Trial of the Incredible Hulk, and The Death of the Incredible Hulk (both directed by Bill Bixby). Since its debut, The Incredible Hulk has garnered a worldwide fan base.

Alex reaffirming that his information wasn't wrong about the current ownership of the hulk, became revealed. Basically Marvel Comics still owned the rights to the character but, simply had a deal with MCA.

Alex: "Actually I heard Universal Studios just made a deal with the right to continue to make more hulk tv series.

David: "Really?..I didn't know about but, anyway why asking me about this I'm not too deep in this sort of things? Alex... And did you say you had plans to buy Marvel?

Alex:"Not at the moment but, in the near future when I have the capital to do so."

David: "If it's in the future then why are you asking now?"

Alex: "Plans can change at any time, I want to be prepared for those changes. That I be able to take serious action if anything unexpected happens."

Alex wasn't lying as two days just before they left for LA Castle Wolfenstein 3D had officially been launched by his company and Atari. And could be bought and downloaded online and physical in game stores all across the United States.

Blue Star Interactive received 60 percent of the sell from the hard copies sells and 75 percent from the from online sells for the PC market.

The hard copy were all split between Atari and Blue Star Interactive, Blue Star Interactive wasn't own by Atari. And they were using the own online website to sell the game so they only need to negotiate with Apple and Microsoft for a split.

After that they would need to pay taxes, and their stuff who worked on the games than other expenses occurred in the process the rest being pure profit. His company planned to use the ability to update and add new content to improve gameplay.

When players who downloaded the full game online would noticed this difference between the two versions of the game would naturally increase the purchases of the online version.

Since people who bought the game online needed to create an personal account on their website would receive news updates in their emails or when they revisited the account.

Blue Star Interactive and Atari already signed a five year contract that could only be renegotiated on the fourth year before the contract expiration. By that time Alex already planned launched his own gaming console and set up his own distribution channels.

Which probably wouldn't be needed with his parents were sitting up Amazon delivery but, many people still wouldn't be obsessed with ordering everything online.

Also his book Jurassic Park was also going to be published and sold in various book stores by the end of this week. So now the butterfly effect was going to go into full effect and Alex would start to lose his advantage of knowing everything that was going to happen.

The only question was when and where those changes were going to take place like certain people never being born, people who where never famous becoming famous, movie come out earlier or later then excepted.

Basically now Alex couldn't be sure of how major event would take place and in the sequences leading to them.

Actually from the moment Alex came out of his coma things had already begun to change. And Alex knew that from the very first beginning. It was just that he had no idea what changed were already taking place by now across the world.

Hence his recent behavior as now big change that he himself would personally notice would begin to occur.
