Chapter 204: Evil Corporations
"Should I eat the door?" Gali asked.
"No! I\'ll tell Glanpa. He should know what to do." Amy said and went to find Alexander.
Alexander was in his workshop designing the new space station.
"Glanpa, Berry has locked himself in his room and is crying," Amy told him.
"He must be watching a movie." Alexander guessed.
"No, he\'s been like this for the past 3 days. He hasn\'t even eaten anything." Amy revealed.
Alexander was truly worried for him now, "Let\'s go and see what\'s the problem."
Alexander just used magic to unlock the door and entered. The room was very untidy and dark. Amy went and opened the curtain while he went to Berry in bed.He stroked his fluffy head, "Hey, Berry. What happened? Why are you locked in here?"
Berry looked up at Alexander with teary eyes and quickly jumped into his arms. Alexander hugged him and heard all his problems.
For Amy, it was just random chirping but for him, it was meaningful words. Alexander had given him the ability to speak but he was deliberately not using it.
"She...She came out of nowhere and took over my people. I am the king of all Phoenix, you know. I tried to fight her but she\'s too strong. I don\'t know what to do, dad." Berry said.
Alexander had a small idea of who this new female phoenix was.
"Alright, let\'s go and see who she is." Alexander got up.
"NO! That would make me look weak. I must deal with her myself." Berry stopped him.
"Hmmm... Okay, then I will make you powerful." Alexander snapped his finger and did just that.
Berry felt the changes and gained some confidence. "Yes, now I will go and beat her."
Alexander secretly followed him as he was worried. Once in his small Phoenix village in the jungle. Alexander saw this new Phoenix. It was none other than the Phoenix living in Jean, now named Red.
He had put the white-hot room in Phixheim so Red could move freely about in Phixheim.
"Huh, you have returned ha? I will make you run away just like before." Red said.
"I am not the same as I was back then," Berry confidently claimed.
A moment later they started fighting each other. Red wasn\'t using her primordial powers as she knew she would get reprimanded by Alexander. Still, her physical strength was also quite high. But to her surprise, Berry was able to keep up with her.
Soon their fight took an ugly turn and they started pecking each other with their beaks. Alexander had to step in.
He grabbed both of them from the back of their necks. "Stop this nonsensical fight. Look around you, your people are worried. You two are above all this petty fighting. Now shake hands or I will punish."
He released them. Both of them huffed and shook each other\'s claws. "Now, why don\'t you just marry each other and become king and queen of all the phoenixes."
Berry and Red looked at each other for a second.
"Hmph," they quickly looked away.
"Alright, I won\'t force you but no more fights okay." He said that and flew away. In a way, the whole scenario was a bit funny. He was mediating in a fight between two immortal birds.
"Boss, Odin, and Frigga have arrived in the Universe Tower." Ghost notified him.
"Alright, give them some drinks, I will come with Olivia in a sec." He instructed.
Alexander went into his castle and informed Olivia. They both dressed up. Phixheim was a bit empty right now. As most of the people were somewhat out. Hela was in space, Rina was somewhere with Gali. Amy just left to shoot her movie. Leonidas was with Natasha on a mission.
Edward and Hermione had already toured Phixheim and liked it a lot. Alexander gave them a way to come back anytime. Currently, the two were busy exploring the world as there was a lot to see. Edward was more excited because it was the Marvel world.
"Let\'s go, Olivia." Alexander grabbed his wife\'s hand and appeared in Universe Tower.
"Hahaha... How are you, my friend?" Odin came to him and gave him a bear hug.
"Never been better, Odin. What about you? Still getting those nightmares?" Alexander asked.
"No, instead I see visions in which you snap your fingers, and Ragnarok vanishes," Odin said.
"Hey, what did I do?" Another voice came. It was Ragnarok with a Firewhisky bottle in hand.
"Haha... I wasn\'t talking about you, my friend." Odin corrected.
They all went to the living area and sat down. They drank and ate some snacks. "So, what is the reason you invited me and my queen to Midgard?"
"Odin, we have both seen how close Loki has been with Medusa all these years. I think it\'s time we make them an official couple. I think they were probably holding it till now in fear of me. I\'m a bit too protective of my children." Alexander stated.
Odin had a happy smile on his face, "What can be better than this, Alex. Our friendship will become kinship now. It\'s a moment worth celebrating. I am sure Loki and Medusa will love this news."
"Yes, Loki has already told me once that he would only marry Medusa. He seriously loves her. Even more so after he felt the positive changes in himself. " Frigga added. Loki was always much closer to his mother.
"Then let\'s call in the couple. They are probably being lovy dovy somewhere." Olivia said and looked in her locket that Leonidas had gifted her. It showed where Medusa was.
She then called them back. Medusa apparated with Loki. "What happened, Grandma?"
But Medusa shockingly looked at the people present. "Did I miss something important?"
Alexander walked up to her with a warm smile and caressed her head. "No, my lovely child. I was just talking with Odin about you and Loki\'s marriage."
"Oh... I thought I forgot some important mee..." Then she realized.
"WHAAAAT!... REALLY GRANDPA?" She loudly exclaimed.
"Haha... Yes. Who do you think your Grandpa is? My happiness lies in your happiness so of course I would agree. Loki has also shown that he truly loves you so there is no harm." He admitted.
Suddenly Medusa hugged him tightly, "Thank you, Grandpa"
After that, it was all about deciding when to hold the wedding. Earth would give too much attention to him so he decided to do it in Asgard. The date was fixed for a month from now. Medusa was too excited and went away to tell her sisters. First, she went to Hela as she was her favorite sister.
Odin and Frigga had decided to stay the night and enjoy the Earth\'s hospitality. It was like their own small vacation.
"Boss, I have compiled all the important data needed relating to the NASA launch incident." Ghost told him.
Alexander got to work and looked into the file. Easy to say, all the Oil and Energy companies were too much involved in the political world. Alone in the United States, they supported many candidates in their election and lobby many bills that mostly profited them.
But Alexander\'s eyes fell on a name he thought he had heard, "Ghost, who is this Stanley Allen Meyer?"
"Sir, he is the man who built a water-powered engine. He gained quite a popularity back then but he died suddenly on March 20, 1998, while dining at a restaurant. His brother claimed that during a meeting with two Belgian investors in a restaurant, Meyer suddenly ran outside, saying \'They poisoned me\'. Meyer\'s patents have expired. His inventions are now in the public domain, available for all to use without restriction or royalty payment." Ghost reported.
"Woah, so the man had really made a water power efficient engine. And these companies got him assassinated. Ghost, buy the patent at all costs. Also, look for any other research material about him that may have gotten stolen. There must be a reason why no one has made a water-powered engine from his public patents yet." Alexander instructed.
"Also call the Attorney General to come to me. He\'s going to be busy soon." He added.
~Let\'s see how much I can squeeze these companies dry.~
