Chapter 2: Chapter Two: Hero assistant
Luke walked into a large office type building. The entire first floor was empty. Luke went into the elevator. He clicked the button that said basement. The elevator closed. The elevator went down then it stopped. The doors open to a long hallway.
Calm down Luke this is just safely measures. There is nothing to worry about. Luke thought as he walked through the hallway. He came to a large metal door. He went to a pad putting in a code, then a scanner scanned his finger and then his eye. The door started to open to find more hallway. Luke walked through the hallway to a door. He opened it to see a dark room with a lot of tables and chairs with incomplete tech on them. A someone was at a large computer writing code.
" Excuse me. I am a new researcher assistant. Are you the one I spoke to on the phone." Luke said hesitantly.
The person stopped tying for a minute glancing at Luke then continued to write the code. "Will, I guess I need to introduce myself. My name is Eley Sten. I'm the lead researcher. So I didn't catch your name on the phone. " A feminine voice said.
" My name is Luke. So Ms. Sten what is you working on right now." Luke said curiously walking to the computer.
" This is an A.I program that I'm working on. It is supposed to search for superhuman phenomenons around the world with the use of a satellite. The satellite isn't complete yet so I'm going to need you to finish the satellite." Ms. Sten said pointing to a door that said " Control environment.
" Wait, I thought entire teams work on one satellite for years. How am I going to finish the satellite?" Luke said concerned.
" Well, that's why I choose you as my assistant because you are the smartest person in the world so they say. You can figure it out you have three months to create a faster way to build a satellite and complete them both. Good luck." Ms. Sten said smirk.
" Well, whatever. I'm going home so I can think of a way to do this. " Luke said walking to the exit.
" Oh yeah, I need a progress report every week. You will be paid every other week. " Ms. Sten said.
" Thank you for your kindness in hiring me," Luke said bowing to Ms. Sten. Luke going up the elevator.
Well, I'm pretty sure we have a lot of funding from lots of sources. So we basically have unlimited money. So I have to think of a way to make the building process faster. I may have to look through my notebook. Luke thought walking out of the elevator towards the door. Three men walked into the building. One was wearing a weird looking hazmat suit on. It had tubes going in and out of the suit most to a pack. The two men next to the man were wearing a black and white suit. The two men looked at Luke as he went past them.
An hour later or so at Luke's house. Luke walked into the house as two kids ran past the door. Luke went into the dining room to the left of the door. He saw papers on the table. Luke glanced at the paper. There was the word "Late notice on them" in all caps and red ink. Luke away trying to forget what he saw. He went into the living room to see that a man was sitting on the couch with a beer watching to tv. The man looked at Luke disgustedly. Luke walked past the tv going to a doorway on the other side of the room.
" What took you so long to come home today. It's not like you have a superpower to be a hero." The man said mimicking Luke taking a drink of his beer. Luke just ignored him and continued to walk to the doorway. Behind the doorway was a flight of stairs. Luke went up the stairs to the second floor of the house. To his room.
Luke opened the door to his room. There were a desk and a chair and a bed in the room. On the desk was a laptop. Luke sat down at the desk. He opened a drawer in the desk to find several magazines that had an indecent woman on them each of them. He closed that drawer and then opened another drawer to find a notebook that said " ideas" in the writing of a four-year-old or something. Luke grabbed the notebook putting it on the desk. He opened the notebook the first page was a drawing of a man with some type of gloves on with writing around the drawing. Luke started to flip toward the notebook. Ideas filled all of the pages the drawing became more complex with each page. Luke smiled reminiscing on these memories. Then he stopped on a page a few 100 pages in.
The page said "nanofly" with an extremely describe drawing of this "fly". Its wings were triangle shape, it only had four legs, and the mouth had four rods with the note saying " Drills and constructor". Luke smiled. "This could work," Luke said putting a book tab on the page putting the book back in the drawer.
Luke looked at his phone seeing it was 7:59 pm. " Guess its time," Luke said opening his laptop. The display had a lot of windows opened some were camera video. One of the tabs said " Assistant request from Neo"
" I've never help Neo before. I thought she was the lone wolf type. Well, it time to start." Luke said putting on a headset.
During the day the city of Hawks may seem dead but, during the night the city truly comes alive. The neon lights turn on. People go to the city's clubs. Most of the crime happens. So you can see more heroes. People in this city live double lives. The averages of people could become valiant of superheroes. People you know could be totally different doing the night. This is why Luke, Alexis, and many others want to help people get through a night.
