Alexander King
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Alexander King." says the news host as the news show that was appearing on Television after Oberon's announcement of the Arc system. The man in the suit at on a chair he then says with his smooth voice, "Thanks for having me, Bob." The man then says, "First Oberon Price, and now Alexander King. You are the weirdest story that has developed over the last few years. Taking over Midland circle after its fall and you turned it completely around. Not only did you change it to Midland Security, but it went from a multimillion-dollar thing to a multibillion-dollar corporation. How do you do it?"
Alexander adjusts himself and then says smoothly, "Its simple. I shot, killed and bullied my way to the top and hostility to take over everything to put Midland Security back into its current glory days." He pauses then says, "That's a joke by the way. I'm not that kind of guy. We had to go through tons of restructuring, and we had to fix all things that went wrong the first time. When the main building was demolished by explosives a few years ago. Many believed it was impossible but look where we are. On an early morning show with everyone wondering how one guy turned it all around."
The journalist then says, "Restructuring? Many people might believe your early joke especially with all those accidents your company was having early on when you took over. But with all the good you have put into New York. Opening homes for homeless and trouble teens. Offering your security firms services around the city to protect those who can afford it. You seem to really care about New York, but the big news is what you have talked about earlier before we went on air."
With a smile the suit wearing man says, "The current active use of my security firm within New York, to aid the New York city police in matters they have failed to deal with. Dealing with the weird incidents that have happened all too much lately. I am meaning the arrival of super powered and others of that nature that have been in this city. The police as on top of things as they have been aren't a match for the new threats that seems to be plaguing our city. Only last night we had another incident when a fundraiser was attacked by masked intruders. Some people are saying, and I quote ninjas attacked, but they were combated by people with powers. Some of these so called ninjas were killed. Now while they were a threat to those in who attended that fundraiser who gives the rights to those with special abilities to attack and act as vigilantes. They take lives of people, and damage property and do whatever they want. This night they were on the side of the those who were unfortunately caught in the crossfire were saved, but what about next time? What if next time an incident occurs those with powers and special abilities are the ones attacking? They could overpower the NYPD and do whatever they want because who can even stand up to them? If they have abilities like the big green man or have special armored suits like Stark had. Who can stop them? How could they be held accountable for their actions? So I have proposed a plan of action to the mayor. Allow my firm my security to assist the police in dealing with these matters."
The newsman, "Is that necessary? The Gala incident was unfortunate but..." Alexander interrupts, "Unfortunate is one word but it should be an eye-opening moment. This city isn't safe. You have Mister Price converting Stark's defense system to protect our world. But who is going to protect this city from the people with powers who are already here? The people of New York need a shield to defend them now Midland security can be the shield. We can be better than Shield. We can actually get the job done and protect the people. But that's enough of the policing issues. The mayor shot us down for now. But Midland security is here, and we are offering our services to deal with those the police cannot."
With the Alexander excuses himself off the set and leaves. As he leaves a woman his secretary meets up with him as he leaves and gets into his limo. He then says, "Hopefully that went over well. Did we ever find out whose ninjas those were?" The woman answers, "No sir..." Alexander's tone shift, "We need to find out if they were ours. Also give the order to execute those who were captured. Prison executions, poisonings. Don't care. These men if they are agents of the hand they need to be dealt with. We might be benefitting from their blunder, but we don't need any side factions acting independently anymore. The Gaos and other leaders all had their own agendas and look how things turned out. Its best to knock down this side faction and stop whatever their agenda is. Last thing we need is too much attention drawn the ninja aspect and less on the superpowered people. It might end up with enemies like the devil of hell's kitchen and our immortal enemies forming back up."
The answer was plain and simple, "Very well sir. Are there any plans with the failure to acquire the stark business that Mister Price just took?" Alexander pours himself a drink in his limo some fancy scotch he then says, "Nah, while it would have been nice to have Stark's technology working for us. We don't need it at this time. Right now, it only puts Mister Price in the spotlight allowing us to get our other ventures into works. Purchasing the docks, and warehouses so we can import and export our assets. Turn warehouses into recruitment centers, disguised as housing for the homeless and homes for troubled teens. We need to recruit and build ourselves back up from the failures of our leaders of the past. Midland circle was a disgrace. Focus so much on traditions and fables of the Black Sky. When we should have focused on our secrecy. Now, I for the last few months have revived the Hand to its rightful glory. Putting us in a position where the Hand can work in the open without needing to hide. This rogue group is aiding us to become the power we are meant to be. position blame and the spotlight on the people with abilities and let them hang themselves with their own antics and then we can come in and be protect them from their fears." The lady comments, "Seems like you have everything planned. Is there anything you want me to do sir?"
Thinking over for a moment, "Yeah send Mister Price's fundraiser last night a last-minute donation. Got to keep up appearances, a five hundred thousand dollar donation should be enough. Also prob around for information about those special people who appeared at the Gala last night. Some of them could prove to be useful. Best to keep as much information as possible. Should they be potential allies or enemies we might either need to recruit a few of them or permanently silence them. Oh and do me a favor and schedule a meeting with the board of directors of Midland security. We need to get everyone together and see how things are going. Hopefully we can get through a meeting without having to silence one or two of them at the meeting." The secretary, "Very well sir. I will schedule that meeting as soon as possible and send Mister Price that sizeable donation.
The limo speeds off ended back to Midland Circle tower as Alexander King plots from within. His goals to control the city and bring the Hand to center focus. His news appearance live to all to see sending a message to those who watched that a new group is about to enter New York to deal with those with special abilities.
