League of Heroes........Guardians of Earth (Darkkitten9389 & CrimsonMaster)

When Tristan blew past her ear after creating a blizzard and told herthat this was her chance to get Image back to the jet, Alexandria growled softly before lifting into the air with a hard thrust of her long wings, taking off swiftly with Image firmly in her grasp. Her form flew quickly through the air towards the jet and as she neared it, she began to shrink her form until she was just small enough to fit into the open hatch and she carefully deposited Image into a seat before she shifted back to her human form, already moving to the captains seat and getting them ready to leave. By the time Zandora and Dak were on board, she was ready to go and the moment they stepped on, she had the cloaking device activated and the hatch closing as they took off away from the area. She knew that Tristan would be able to catch up easily.

When he approached where she sat piloting the jet, her hands were gripping the steering controls tightly. She listened to him approach and begin to speak as she guided the jet. He was telling her that Raven keeps very good records on people with powers, whether they were human or mutant, and some of those people he'd never seen before. She nodded slightly, her teeth worrying her bottom lip as she thought to herself. "Oh, I'm positive that the government has been tinkering with things they shouldn't have and they will definitely be using them against us." she murmured. "And I believe I know one of the people behind the creation of these super powered people."

This wasn't the first time that she and Raven had run ins with such people. As she flew the jet, Alexandria's mind went to the one person that they had managed to rescue from the experiments that had been happening to create these special powered people. Whisper. The young woman, barely out of her teens and immensely powerful. She was still under the care of Dr. Simms after it was discovered that the girl was on the verge of suffering an annurism. If it hadn't been discovered, the girl would of died.

With a sigh, Alexandria guided the jet back to the Hall of Heroes to drop off Zandora, softly thanking the magik user and telling her that she owed the young woman one. After that, she took them home to Reed Manor. At home, she carefully but easily landed the jet before shutting it down.
 
Tristan raised an eyebrow when his mother spoke. It was possible that Alexandria knew at least one person behind the creation of the super powered people they faced. Tristan settled back into the other pilot's seat as his mother guided the jet back towards New York. Once they dropped off Zandora, the jet speeded towards home. Alexandria landed the jet, then everyone departed. Eric and the others were waiting for them. They had freed Dak, but there was a conflict. Something that Alexandria wanted to avoid, but it couldn't be helped. Eric had expected some trouble. They were freeing a prisoner after all. Had there been no trouble. Eric would feel a little wary of how easy everything went.

Image was carried from the jet. He was in good spirits, for an android without emotions. The metal supports in his legs and arms were already regenerating. It would be sometime before he was on his feet again. Everyone then settled down to talk over what they encountered. Eric leaned about the 'New People" who appeared at Area 51. Image was able to scan all those who faced the team. They now knew Gator, Twister and Humongous were working for the government. Eric was very interested in the others. As Tristan had said. Eric kept detailed files on everyone with superpowers. He believed that one day, even a friend could become an enemy. Eric wanted to be ready in case a hero went rogue. He then asked Alexandria for her thoughts and concerns? As the team leader. She'd studied each of their foes during the fight. Eric wanted her assessment of thie new people with powers.
 
Alexandria saw the look on Tristan's face when she said about believing that she knew one of the people behind the creation of the super powered people that they'd just faced. But she didn't expand on what she knew. Right now, she wanted to get her thoughts into order first. Tristan then settled into the co-pilots seat while she flew the jet back towards New York. After dropping off Zandora, Alexandria then guided the jet home where she landed with ease and they all departed the jet. The others were awaiting their arrival. Once home, they got out of the jet and filed off, helping Image off the jet.

Image would be incapacitated for a time, but he was already on the mend. They all settled down and sat down to talk about what had happened. Eric was told about the 'New People' that they had gone against and Alexandria sat back in her seat. She listened to the others talking for a while before she was asked for her thoughts and concerns. "I believe that the government has been experimenting on humans. Making their own soldiers with powers." she told Eric. "After all, many of those within power have stated their wishes to control people with powers of any kind. My concern, is how they are doing this and who is helping them." She told Eric that she believed that one of the people helping them was possibly the very same person who had helped to make the other super-powered team that they'd gone up against some time ago.
 
Eric understood who Alexandria was talking about. She didn't need to speak the name for him. However, the others weren't as clued in on who Alexandria was pointing a finger at. Eric saw the confused looks on everyone else. He announced that Alexander Wentworth was the person Alexandria spoke of. Some of the members of his former hero team, were now working with the government. This didn't mean Wentworth was working with, or even had any part in what the government was doing. Clearly the government was building it's own group of super powered people. Recently, so many things were happening which seemed connected, yet there was nothing to tie them together. Zorg making an appearance and trying to drawn Angel onto his side. The government trying to capture mutants like Cassy Marshal. Changeling & Kronos were clearly working together for some outside power. Eric didn't like go forward without a "Plan B". He asked Alexandria to make contact with her new friends. That team of heroes who helped her and Chip escape from the government forces. Blackbird, Danger Girl, Wasp Woman and Scarecrow. Eric wanted Alexandria to bring them on board as backup. He also suggested they contact Street Devil, Dark Justice and anyone else they can think of. If things turned against them. Eric wanted to make sure their asses were covered.

Eric then asked Dak what he remembered while being in custody of the government. Dak spoke of having been captured back in the mid 1960's. That made sense since that's where Eric & Image lost track of him. Dak had been using his powers to help people. The government caught wind of what Dak was doing. It didn't take them long before they knew he wasn't from Earth. The heroes of that time weren't seen as a threat by the government. However, an alien with the powers Dak possessed, was seen as a threat. The government sent a team out and captured Dak. He was then taken to Area 51, where Dak had been kept until freed by Alexandria's team. Dak did speak of hearing guards talk about a Project: Icarus. He had no idea what this project was, but it seemed important. Eric asked Alexandria to reach out to her contacts within the government. He wanted her to find out what this Project: Icarus was all about. Who was running it and where was it based. The government had used Dak like a lab rat. He spoke of how they experimented on him. How they took samples of his skin, and even of his sperm. There was no telling what the government used Dak's sperm for. But, clearly they weren't using it for anything good.

Several days passed without any word of the raid on Area 51. The government wasn't going to openly admit to anything taking place in the desert. However, several UFO web sites posted stories and even blurry pictures taken of what looked like a battle between super powered beings happening on the base. The government dismissed the photos and stories as being hoaxed. Still, enough people were now talking about a possible war between super powered people. Several days afterwards, the government called for a meeting with the League of Heroes. The league agreed to meet with whomever the government sent. However, Eric & Alexandria weren't pleased. They could feel that something was up. Tristan, Adam & Image weren't league members. Eric & Alexandria wanted to keep them on the outside. Just in case of trouble. Eric, Alexandria & Tina would be attending the meeting.
 
Alexandria was reluctant to speak the name of Alexander Wentworth. The man had become an occasional lover since the fundraiser gala that she had fucked him at. She had advised him to be careful of dealing with the man who claimed to have figured out the serum that had created Cap. After that, they had even partnered up on several projects which had brought both their companies plenty of money. The two had even been seen together a couple of times. Usually having lunch or dinner while they discussed business. But tabloids being what they were, had started the rumor that the Queen of the elite in the city was being wooed by Wentworth. Her thoughts went to this briefly before she sighed and looked at Eric as he announced that Wentworth was the person that she spoke of. He had been the one who had created his own group of super powered people. However now, several members of that hero team were now working for the government. Alexandria didn't want to think he was working for the government by creating super-powered beings, the idea leaving a bad taste in her mouth, but she was aware that it was a possibility.

The government was trying to capture very strong mutants, such as Cassy Marshal, something that Alexandria had prevented. And then there was Changeling and Kronos who were working with an outside power, whom they didn't know much about as of yet. It was the same with Zorg trying to take Angel onto his side, the strange empathetic being refusing to work for him and returning to their home instead. Now she happily worked as a nanny, taking care of Eric and Alexandria's son and looking forward to the birth of the next little one that Alexandria was now carrying.

When Eric asked Alexandria to make contact with her new friends, she nodded. She knew that he was talking about the team of heroes who had helped her and Chip escape from the forces hunting Chip. Something she was very grateful for. The way the government was acting reminded her of why she disliked them in the first place. "Of course. I'll get in contact with them asap." she told Eric. After that, Eric began to question Dak about what he'd remembered while being in custody of the government. As he told them of what he'd been through and what they'd done, she frowned. What they had done was nothing new and didn't surprise her, but it still disgusted her. When Dak mentioned Project: Icarus, she looked up quickly. She'd heard of this project before, but she didn't know much about it. She nodded when asked to reach out to her contacts about it and she told him that if there was information to be found, she and her people would find it.

The days after that seemed to pass slowly, but they passed without mention of what had happened at Area 51. But despite no mention of it, she didn't let her guard down. But she did get on with her work. She contacted Blackbird, Danger Girl, Wasp Woman and Scarecrow, letting them know that she and Raven just might need their help soon because of trouble brewing. At the same time, she also remembered the extraordinary man who had interrupted the dealings that the Jester was having. He had been an extremely powerful man and with him in mind, she began to subtly ask questions about who he was, both asking the police and some of the underground people she knew. It wasn't long before she got a name. One Lincoln Rhodes. It was actually a name that was sort of familiar to her. She remembered reading it on an applicant who was requesting funds from the Reed Foundation to build a recreation building for the kids, something she actually whole heartedly supported. With this in mind, she asked Casey to schedule an appointment with the man so that she could see him. It would be at her private office that she usually worked out of instead of at Reed Foundations.

It wasn't long after that, that she was informed that the government was calling for a meeting with the League of Heroes and she made a face when Eric told her before sighing. She knew that they had to meet with them, but she told Eric that she could feel it in her bones that something was up and she didn't trust this. However, the league agreed to meet with whomever the government sent. So she and Eric both agreed to keep Tristan, Adam and Image out of this.
 
If Alexandria thought the governments actions with Dak, disgusted her. She would be even more disgusted once she found out what they did with the samples they took from him. Project: Icarus, was nothing short of the government playing God. One could even say they were creating abominations. But, not everything created by the government will be evil. Some would only be misguided and fooled into believing the government was working for the good of all people. Even in the government, not everyone was corrupted. Not everyone was apart of President Gates and his plans. Even those close to the president, didn't know who was really backing his rise to power.

Wasp Woman and her team, were pleased when Alexandria contacted them. They were also pleased to help out when she asked them to become back up for them. It would be a great honor to work with Raven & Scarlet Cat. It wouldn't be hard for Raven & Scarlet Cat to find the help they would need as things turned against them. The heroes would find out soon enough. The meeting with the government would be the beginning of a troubling time for the family of heroes. Tristan, Image and Adam were being held back. They would be needed as things turned badly. However, they weren't apart of the league and wouldn't be at the meeting.

The meeting with the government happened a few days later. All the league members were there, except for Thundra who was away visiting Asgard. Also, Zandora and her father Zandu just started their world tour and wouldn't be returning for sometime. Not unless they were needed for something special. The main meeting room of the Hall of Heroes, was filled with all members, both current and the older, original heroes, such as Black Tiger, Mr. Outrageous and Phantom Girl. Though, this Phantom Girl wasn't the original. She was the daughter of the original, but no one, expect for Alexandria & Eric knew this as fact.

The meeting started when Baxter Hansen, the Deputy Secretary of State, General Gordon Stockwell and some armed soldiers arrived at the hall. The sight of the armed soldiers didn't sit well with any of the heroes. Despite what they thought of the current government. However, General Stockwell assured them. The soldiers were just here for security means and nothing else. Hansen started the meeting by telling the heroes, they'd done some great work over the years. He raised them for saving New York City, the country and the world more times then anyone could count. Then came the however. Which didn't surprise Scarlet Cat, Raven, or Star girl. Hansen added that current events had colored the heroes, and people with powers in a bad light. He said they were heroes, then said some thought they were vigilantes, even more dangerous then the so called super villains. While speaking this way. Hansen was standing behind where Scarlet Cat, Raven and Stargirl were sitting. He pointed towards current events such as the trouble in Russian and the UFO flap which happened at Area 51. Hansen admitted it wasn't a UFO, but an attack on a government base by people with powers. Without coming out and saying it. Hansen was clearly singling out Scarlet Cat and her family.
 
The day of the meeting with the government, Alexandria showed up in her Scarlet Cat form. She was in her usual black leather body suit and corset with her boots. However, because of her condition, she had to adjust how she wore her tight clothing. Arriving at the Hall of Heroes, Scarlet Cat greeted her team mates before they head into the meeting room where they would be hosting their visitors. When Deputy Secretary of State Baxter Hansen and General Gordon Stockwell arrived with some armed soldiers, Scarlet Cat narrowed her eyes even while General Stockwell assured it was just for securtity measures and she made a soft sound in the back of her throat before leaning back in her seat.

The feral shapeshifter listened as Hansen began speaking of how the heroes had done great work over the years and he praised them for saving New York City, the country and the world plenty of times. Even as he was speaking, Scarlet Cat was waiting to hear the 'but' part of his pretty little speech, which was bound to come. And sure enough it came. He spoke of current events painting heroes and people with powers in a bad light. He spoke of how they were heroes yet some believed that they were vigilantes even more dangerous then the so called super villains. While he was speaking, Scarlet Cat was on high alert with him standing behind her and she was very tense. She kept her facial features carefully schooled to not show the aggravation she had with the man as he pointed out the trouble in Russian and the UFO flap which happened at Area 51.

After he admitted about it being not a UFO but an attack on a government base by people with powers, she finally turned her head and looked at the man from the corner of her eye. "We are all aware of the trouble raised with Russia." she said, her voice soft yet carried through the room. "However, could you elaborate about the attack on Area 51? Are you trying to say one of us were involved?" Alexandria turned her gaze away from Baxter and then looked at General Stockwell, her feline gaze watching him. Before the meeting, Alexandria and Raven had carefully constructed a solid alibi for the shifter in case the attack on Area 51 had been brought up and anyone was accused of the attack.
 
Hansen was about to answer Scarlet Cat. He was cut off when General Stockwell started talking. " The events at Area 51 are still being looked into.......However we have enough evidence which shows at least one shifter and maybe more then one was involved. " General Stockwell spoke while looking at Scarlet Cat. " No one is saying anyone in this room was involved.......However......Not everyone in this room has shifting powers......Do they Scarlet Cat? " Stockwell added, he then asked where Zandora was? He spoke of someone like her being caught on security cameras at the base. The government really wanted to speak with her. Protector said Zandora was away and wouldn't be back for sometime. Stockwell nodded his head. He started walking around the room. " Things are going to change from this point on........You superheroes are more trouble then you're worth......You fly around forcing your will on anyone you wish.......You cross boarders without permission......You take the law into your own hands......The governments of the world are no longer willing to just let you invade their lands whenever you wish. " Just as Stckwell finished speaking. Hansen tossed a thick, almost book like presidential order onto the table.

" From this moment on.......You'll be working for the United States and the United Nations.........You'll only take action if the president or the Secretary General of the United Nations deems action is needed.......Anyone who signs on will become special agents......Everyone else will retire or become outlaws. " Hansen spoke. His eyes shifting from Scarlet Cat, to Raven, to Stargirl. The teenager was glaring daggers at Hansen. Stockwell stated that anyone becoming an outlaw, would be hunted like the outlaws of the old west. He said they had prison cells which could hold anyone. No matter how strong they were. His words brought Stargirl to her feet. She was about to verbally rip into the general, but was stopped when Raven grabbed her arm. Everything said and done by the government so far, was expected by Raven. Despite what he and Alexandria came up with. They knew no alibi would be good enough for the government. Not during a time when most of the news outlets were working for them. Raven asked Stargirl to sit down. As she did so, he rose to his feet. " I can condone working for any one government.......Or governments as a whole.......That would keep us from acting and saving lives......If we don't act independently then people will suffer......We could be held back if needed.....Or sent somewhere else when troubles starts elsewhere.......I'll not become an agent for President Gates. " Raven spoke while moving away from the table. " I'll also not stop saving or helping those in need.......If you wish to tag me as an outlaw....Then an outlaw I'll become.....The rest of you can do what you think is best. " Raven's words were the line drawn in the sand. He stood with Scarlet Cat on his right and Stargirl now on his left.

Protector then stood. She said they shouldn't stand against the government. They should work with it. Clearly Raven & Protector were positioning themselves as leaders of separate factions. It was now time for the remainder of the league to decide where they would go. Black Tiger, Mr. Outrageous and Phantom Girl moved to join Raven. As did Captain Liberty, Psy Girl, Jinx, her brother Blur, Micro Man and Photon. Giganta said she couldn't pick sides, not now. She decided to retire. The rest, Crimson Archer, Lighting, Arachnia, Ice, Silver Streak and Ghost sided with Protector.

Blaze and She Beast also decided to retire. Neither said they could fight against their friends. The battles lines had been drawn. Raven and those following him left the Hall of Heroes. Leaving the other behind. Once outside, Raven gave each of them a new communicator for their ears. He said they should lay low for a while. Raven told them, he or Scarlet Cat would contact them when needed. The group split up. Raven, Scarlet Cat and Stargirl returned to Reed Enterprises. Scarlet Cat had another meeting with Lincoln Rhodes that same day. She hoped to get his power on their side. Alexandria was informed that Mr. Rhodes was early for his meeting. He was eager to get funding for his project in Harlem from the Reed Family Foundations.
 
Scarlet Cat's attention was quickly drawn to General Stockwell when he spoke up and she looked at him again as he spoke about the events at Area 51 still being looked into. His comment about not everyone in the room having shifting powers made her tilt her head slightly while looking at the man. "This may be true. But I'm hardly the only one in the world with them." she told him before he asked where Zandora was. Protector answered that the girl was away and wouldn't be back for some time. After that, the conversation began to go down hill in Scarlet Cat's opinion. Stockwell spoke of them being more trouble then they were worth and Hansen tossed a thick presidential order upon the table. He told them that from that moment on, they would be working for the United States and the United Nations. That they would only be taking action if it was deemed necessary.

When he looked at the shifter, Scarlet Cat had a cold look in her eyes and she watched him shift his gaze from her to Raven and then Stargirl. He went on to state that any who chose to become outlaws would be hunted like the outlaws of the old west and that they had prison cells which could hold anyone, no matter how strong. These words caused her daughter to surge to her feet but Raven grabbed her arm and Scarlet Cat looked over at the teen without saying anything. Instead, Raven took to his feet after Stargirl sat once more. Instead he spoke to Hansen and General Stockwell, the red haired woman listening to him as he drew a clear line of where he stood and she nodded. She would stand with him, she didn't need to say anything for him to know this. Besides, she'd been an outlaw before. "I offered to work willingly for the United States government years back. And its men like you who spit in my face and said I wasn't useful because of my gender." she told the men. "And now they want to force me under their control."

After that, their teammates began to divide themselves into three groups. A group headed by Protector who said that they shouldn't stand against the government, a group headed by Raven as those going against what the government was demanding and then a group which decided to retire. It pained Scarlet Cat to see those she saw as friends and comrades divided, but what the government was demanding was wrong. When Giganta said she couldn't pick sides and when Blaze and She Beast said they couldn't fight their friends, Scarlet Cat told them that they would hold no ill will against them and she wished them all well. After that, Raven began to lead their group out and Scarlet Cat turned to the rest of the room. "I regrettably worked for people like you and your president before. A lot of people died because of them." she told Baxter before looking at the heroes who decided to work for the government. "I wonder when they'll decided to tattoo a number on your arms as well." This was all she said before turning and leaving the hall after her friends. Clearly her remark was comparing the president and his government to the Nazis that she'd worked with many years ago.

The woman was able to easily catch up to the others as Raven was handing out a new communicator for their ears and he said that they should lay low for a while. That he or Scarlet Cat would contact them when needed. Afterwards they all split up. Scarlet Cat and her family returned to Reed Enterprises where she had a meeting with Lincoln Rhodes that same day. With the way the meeting had gone with the government, she wanted to get his power onto their side. She would be contacting plenty of other friends later. But for now, she was informed that Mr. Rhodes was early for his meeting and Alexandria was pleased to hear this and she said to send him into her office.

By then, she was back in her Alexandria Reed form. She had long dark hair and was wearing a leather pencil skirt and a fitted black blouse with black stiletto heels. She was professional yet very sexy as she stood by the windows of her office behind her desk overlooking the city, waiting for Mr. Rhodes to be sent in.
 
Scarlet Cat's parting words weren't empty or lost on anyone. Hansen & Stockwell didn't like that she compared them Nazi Germany. She didn't understand what was being done here. It was better if the heroes had the backing of their government and other governments around the world. Such man didn't know the real power behind President Gates. If they did, they may not here right now. The remaining heroes were left wondering if they made the right choice. Ghost looked at her arm after Cat spoke of numbered tattoos. Protector was left feeling very empty at the moment. She'd fought beside Scarlet Cat & Raven the longest. Protector didn't support President Gates during his campaign, but he won and was the president. Protector felt it was the job of every good American to put aside their feelings and work towards making the country better for everyone. A tear ran down Samantha's face. She realized, the next time she saw her friends, they would be outlaws and she would have to fire on them. Because of her armor. No one could see her shedding a tear.


Lincoln Rhodes was just two years out of prison. He served almost 8 years for a murder he didn't commit. Linc, as he known to his friends, was framed by his former best friend. A man Linc had been trying to take down since he returned to Harlem. This man was Rico Jones. Jones had set himself up as a crime boss and controlled all of Harlem. This made Jones a target by street levels heroes like Dark Justice and Street Devil. They're goal was to take down the crimes bosses of the city. Linc had recently joined them on this quest. However, it was a massive job since men like Roman Tyco, Tony Paris and Cyrus Block wouldn't just roll over and give up.

Linc was shown into Alexandria's office. He'd seen her many times in newspapers and on television. But, that wasn't the same as seeing Alexandria in the flesh. She was regarded as one of the most beautfiful women in the world. Linc could see this was no news spin. Alexandria was stunning and looked very sexy as she stood near the window of her office. " Ahhhhh...........Thank you for meeting with me Ms. Reed...........I hope our meeting will end with both of us satisfied. " Linc spoke while holding out his hand towards Alexandria. He did stumble with his words in the beginning. Only because Alexandria was far more sexier then he could have guessed. The meeting started after they sat down. Alexandria had done a background check and knew all about Linc's past. Her connects told her he was framed, and yet served the time for murder. Linc was released early because he was a model prisoner. Her connects couldn't find out how he got his unbreakable skin and super strength. Even dressed in a suit. Lincoln Rhodes was quite a man. Built from top to bottom.
 
Even though it hadn't shown on her impassive face when she left them, Scarlet Cat was hurt just like some of those she'd left behind, if not more so because of her feline nature. Her being was driven by the want for a family. Of a pride. And her comrades were all a part of that pride. To be forced to fight against them like this caused the feline side of her to become angry. But not at her friends. But at the president and at those working for him. If she was forced to hurt those she cared about, there would be no way for those like Hansen and Stockwall, to survive this unscathed.

After asking for Linc to be shown in, Alexandria listened to the door open and she heard the mans footsteps. Turning her head, she looked at Linc from over her shoulder as he moved further into her office. She glanced past him for a moment to see the door closing, knowing that Casey would make sure that she was uninterrupted while she had her meeting. Unless there was some kind of emergency of course. As Linc began speaking, Alexandria turned to face him the rest of the way as he thanked her for meeting with him and she smiled gently, her face filling with warmth as she moved towards him and she placed her hand into his. Her handshake was firm and strong, telling of the confidence she had in herself. "You're welcome. When I read the file, I became very interested." she told him as she released his hand and motioned for him to sit. "And I'm sure our meeting will end in mutual satisfaction." She moved over to the chair behind her desk and sat down.

The woman had noticed his stumbled words at first, but she made no mention of it. Once seated, Alexandria began speaking about his request. "I've received many different requests for funding of many projects. But this is one of the few that really speaks to me." she told Linc, folding her hands and placing them on top of the file in front of her. "However, I would like to hear more from you about you and what you wish to do. After all, a piece of paper only conveys so much about a person and their wishes."
 
Linc took the seat that was offered him. He wasn't a man of wealth. His suit cost less then Alexandria spends on lunch on a typical day. However, he was a proud man, but even a proud man needs help now and then. This was the reason why he was here. He wanted money to build a decent recreation center for the kids in Harlem. He hoped by giving them a nice place to go and hang out. That would keep them away from the gangs, drugs and men like Rico Jones. Linc explained this after Alexandria asked for him to speak more about why he was here. " Ms. Reed.......I've spent time in prison......I've seen many horrible things happen to good young people.......Men like Rico Jones.......Tony Paris........Roman Tyco and Cyrus Block are like a pledge sucking the life out of our youth.......This center I wish to open will give the kids of Harlem a safe place to go......I also hope the center can expand into other areas of New York......Serving people of all colors. " Linc spoke from the heart, with plenty of passion. He knew he had only one chance to speak with Alexandria on this subject. If he was rejected. There would be no other meetings.

" I've read how you care for people.....How your family has helped many acrossed the city and even in other states and countries.....I came to you because I need help......Helping those around me........I've made mistakes in the past......But I assure you.......I'm not a criminal as one might think because I have a police record. " Linc knew he had to lay all his cards on the table. He had one shot at impressing Alexandria Reed. She would decide whether his project ended here, or whether they would be opening a new center in Harlem together. Linc then went silent. He wasn't sure what else Alexandria wanted to hear from him.
 
Upon asking for Linc to tell her more about both himself and what his goal was, she waited and listened attentively as he put all his cards on the table, as it were. He didn't try to hide anything from her and he spoke honestly and from the heart along with plenty of passion. The things he told her weren't things she didn't already know. After all, her contacts had dug up as much information about the man as they possibly could. The mention of how he'd read about how she cared for people made the woman dip her head slightly and she smiled a little more. Finally he finished speaking, the office became quiet while she gazed at the man sitting across from her. "I'm pleased with how honest you are with me, Mr. Rhodes. I agree whole heartedly about the likes of Rico Jones, Tony Paris, Roman Tyco and Cyrus Block. I'm friends with the chief of police and I've spent time with our men and women in blue. I've heard and seen the results of their influence on the streets of the city." she told him gently. "Children should be protected and cared for, as they are truly our greatest treasure. It's a shame how many of their lives end up."

It was known that Alexandria had been working to better the lives of children in the city. She'd been funding schools, had made a program to help the impoverished children get clothing and school supplies at the beginning of the school year. "I love my city. From the upper echelon to the lowest and darkest corners. If I can help, I try." she said before sitting back in her chair. "I like you, Mr. Rhodes. And I really like your idea for a recreational center for the children. This could also be expanded on later as well. I have different ideas beginning to form just from what you want to do for your community."

She once again leaned forward and she opened his file. Inside sat a contract for the funding for the center as well as the paper work that was needed. All of it was filled out already and all that was needed were dates and signatures. "I'm am more then ready and willing to fund your project, Mr. Rhodes. All the paperwork is drawn up and all it requires is my sign off. However, all I need is one thing from you." she told him. "I would like you to meet someone."
 
Linc was nervous when Alexandria started to speak. She was a powerful woman in this city. Hell, Alexandria Reed was a powerful woman where ever she went in the world. Linc didn't know the woman behind the desk. He'd read a lot about her, but that didn't mean he knew who she really was. This was the first time they'd met face t face. All the stories of Alexandria being an attractive woman, weren't wrong. Alexandria was one of the prettiest women Linc ever saw. He sat while Alexandria spoke. Everything she said, made it seem like Linc would get the money he requested. She spoke of caring for the city and the children who lived in it. Alexandria also spoke of knowing the criminal types. She'd once worked for Roman Tyco. That was years ago, when Alexandria was doing such things. Her split with Tyco wasn't pleasant since she killed his son.

Linc watched as Alexandria opened a folder on her desk. She said all the paperwork was ready. All she needed to do was sign it. Alexandria did have one request. She asked Linc to meet with one of her contacts. It was a simple request. Just a meeting and nothing more. Linc thought for a moment, he then said he would meet her contact anytime and anywhere she wanted. It was the least he could do since Alexandria was giving him money to build his project. Besides, Linc did wonder just who a woman like Alexandria Reed used for a contact. Linc was from the streets and didn't know anyone connected to the Reed Family. However, judging from how well informed Alexandra was. This person must know the streets pretty damn well.
 
Because of her own special abilities, Alexandria could sense the nervousness building in Linc as she spoke. Alexandria Reed was one of the most powerful women in this city as well as all over the world. If she went completely evil like the alternative version of herself that she'd met, she could ruin the lives of countless people. But with her family at her side, the woman strived to better herself and the lives of the people who relied upon her. The people in the city said plenty about her and knew only what she and Eric wanted them to know. Such as Alexandria Reed's history of having come from a very poor background, born to a single mother who had at one time had a fling with Erics father. This was nothing when compared to the truth of who she was and very few people knew that truth.

After asking Linc to meet with one of her contacts, she became quiet and waited for his reply, watching as he thought for a moment before agreeing to meet her contact anytime and anywhere. This made her smile brightly, making her look all the more beautiful. "That's what I wanted to hear." she told him before plucking a pen from the desk and she began writing on the papers. She dated them and then with a slight flourish, signed her name in an elegant scrawl before turning the folder and sliding it and the pen across towards him to sign. "I will have one of my families construction companies contracted to take care of the construction of the recreation center. Everything will be new and it will be fully equipped. I will leave you in charge of this project, however. Just let me know what you need, and I will see it done." She was offering to have all new sport equipment and anything and everything else that Linc could think of for this center. After all, it was for the children.

After he signed the papers as well, she closed the folder and placed it aside. "Now, about my contact." she started. "She has seen the dirty, seedy underbelly of this city and she knows much of what goes on. As a matter of fact, she even told be a bit about you. I'm quite curious about something. How did you come to have your powers?" She sat there completely relaxed, her hands folded before her. "She's told me that you are quite impressive when fighting." As she spoke to him, there was no hint of dislike for people with powers and abilities. Besides, she was a well known advocate for mutants and those with powers.

"The reason I ask, is because of a discussion that my contact and I had recently. It turns out that despite all my arguing with congress and with the president himself, they are making a move against those with powers." she explained. "They are planning on searching out all those with powers and forcing them to work for the government. Or go to prison. My contact is.... quite adamant about not working for them. But at the same time, she's not keen on prison either."
 
Linc was grateful when Alexandria signed the paperwork. He wasted no time in putting his name down with hers. His project would now move forward. Thanks to Alexandria Reed and the money of her family's foundations. The kids in Harlem would be the first to benefit from this type of center. Linc didn't want to stop there. He knew such centers would work all over the city and benefit everyone. Harlem would be the starting point for these centers. Once the paperwork was signed. Linc relaxed a bit. Alexandria began speaking of her contact again. Saying this person knew the streets. This made sense since Alexandria was so well informed about places she normally wouldn't go. Linc wondered just who this person was.

Alexandria brought the conversation back around. She spoke of her contact telling her about him. She spoke of some of things he could do. Alexandria then asked how he got his powers. Normally, this was a subject Linc wouldn't openly talk about. However, he was aware that Alexandria was a champion of mutants and people with powers. This made him trust her more then someone else. Linc said it happened while he was serving time in prison. He spoke of the government using prisoners as test subjects for some project they were working on. Linc said he never knew what project it was. He said everyone else tested by the government, died during the testing. He was the only one who survived. Linc said there was some kind of accident while he was under going the testing. They injected him with some kind of drug. He was then placed inside a machine which exposed him to some energy he wasn't sure what type it was. Linc said, while inside the machine. Something went wrong and the machine exploded. He was injured, but the only one who survived. The doctor in charge of the project was killed. This caused the government to stop the testing. Linc said he recovered in the prison hospital. He then spoke of noticing a change in his body a short time later. His skin was stronger then metal. His strength was beyond anything Linc had expected. He spoke of being able to stop a bus traveling at 40 miles an hour.
 
Eventually Alexandria would tell him who her contact was. For now though, she wanted to know about how he had come to have his powers. She hoped that since she was known for standing in the defense of mutants and others with powers, that he would trust her enough to tell her. It seemed like luck was on her side as he began to tell her the story of how it had happened. It turned out that the government was testing on prisoners as well and he was the only one to survive some kind of accident while they were putting him through tests. He told her that there had been an explosion of some sort after something went wrong and he had been injured but survived. And he was the only survivor. Even the doctor in charge had been killed. So the government stopped the testing.

He told her that he had then recovered in the infirmary of the hospital and after that he began to notice changes in his body. Such as his skin becoming stronger and his strength becoming beyond anything he'd expected. She was impressed to hear that he had been able to stop a bus traveling at 40 miles an hour. When he finished speaking, she shook her head with a soft huff. "So the government is still up to their testing." she said, clearly unhappy with how the man had received his powers. It was inhumane in her opinion. "They've been experimenting on people for a long time and despite so many failed and tragic outcomes from some of the things they've done, they still persist."

She shook her head again and sighed before looking at him again and she slowly stood up, moving around the desk and leaning against it while gazing at the man. "My contact, she goes by the name of Scarlet Cat." she told him. "She'll certainly be interested in learning about how you came into your powers. She's very passionate when it comes to people doing scientific testing on others." She gently grasped the edge of the desk on either side of her. "Do you have any questions?" she asked him gently.
 
Linc had been hurt during the explosion. But, whatever that doctor did to him, saved his life. His body healed and became better. The government never checked on Linc to see if there were any changes to his body. They shut the project down, fearing public backlash for running tests on prisoners. The prisoners weren't doing this out of the goodness of their hearts. Some were promised better living conditions. Others, like Linc, got time taken off their original sentence. Linc was the only one who lived to enjoy what was promised. He now used his powers to fight against those within the world of crime. Linc went up against other people with powers, once in a while. Only when the crime bosses hired such people to take down the street level heroes.

Linc listened as Alexandria continued to speak. She had a good heart, and obviously cared, even about prisoners. It was clear that Alexandria had a problem with the government as well. What the problem was, or why she had one, wasn't clear. But, it was clear enough that Alexandria spoke with plenty of passion while going over the things done by the government. Linc then watched as Alexandria stood, and moved around her desk. She then leaned against her desk. This gave Linc a great view of Alexandria's legs. God, did she had great looking legs. Going up to an even better looking body. Linc's attention was drawn away from Alexandria's body when she spoke the name Scarlet Cat. This brought a surprised look to Linc's face. He never expected Alexandria's contact to be one of the city's superheroes. Linc knew of Scarlet Cat, but they never met. " I have no questions Ms. Reed. " Linc replied to her question.
 
Alexandria hated that the government experimented on people. Many who were targeted were the poor and those who lived on the streets, as well as those who were in situations like Linc had been. In prison or in some other bad situation. It was part of the reason why she helped those with powers and she did so passionately, whether in her hero form or in her Reed form. As she moved and leaned against her desk in front of him, it didn't escape the womans notice that his gaze quickly went to her long legs. This made the her smile widen a little more and she tilted her head slightly as she began to speak again, some of her long dark hair falling over one of her shoulders.

After mentioning the name of her contact, she saw the surprise on his face and she couldn't help but to chuckle. Very few knew that she had direct contact with the sexy, red headed hero and when someone did somehow learn this, they were always surprised. Linc told her that he had no questions and she nodded. "Scarlet will be happy to hear that you agreed to see her." she told him. "She's very passionate about what she does." She leaned back a little, causing her skirt to shift up just a little and her blouse to become a little snug with her position while she gazed at the man. "Now then. Now that we have all this seriousness out of the way." she slowly said. "How about we... seal the deal?" The womans voice became huskier and the way she looked at him spoke loud and clear about what she was looking for. The fact that she was slowly beginning to run the toe of her shoe along his calf just made it more obvious.
 
Linc came here looking for money for his project. Funding so he could open up that center in Harlem and hoped Alexandria would back him in opening more places for kids and teenagers to go. Linc got what he wanted and all Alexandria requested in return. He would met with Scarlet Cat. The time and place wasn't revealed yet. Alexandria would share this information, in time. At the moment, Alexandria had something else in mind. Linc was a well built man. She knew it would be a shame if he left without them having some fun. Besides, after the day she had dealing with the government flunkies. Alexandria could use a nice hard cock at the moment. She was sure a man like Linc was packing quite a bit in his pants.

Linc wasn't expecting anything more then either money, or to hear Alexandria turn him down. He was very shocked when she started coming on to him. Linc would never have dreamed a woman like Alexandria Reed would be interested in a guy like him. A common man from the streets. However, Alexandria found lovers in many places. She had one hell of a threesome with two NYPD officers at Reed Manor, sometime ago. The officers even used a baton on Alexandria while they fucked her. Filling all her open holes. Alexandria had very fond memories of those officers. She hoped to see them at the up coming Police Officer's Ball. The Reed family would be there, along with two sizeable checks for the Police Officer's retirement fund and for the Widows & Orphans fund. Alexandria had something to look forwards too. Right now, she was focused on Linc and the growing wad in his pants. And this wad wasn't any cash he may have.

Once Alexandria started teasing Linc with her foot. He understood what she wanted after spoke of them "sealing the deal". Linc placed his right hand onto Alexandria's right leg. His hand slowly worked it's way up under her skirt until he reached the warmth of her pussy. He could feel how wet she was. " You have an odd way of sealing deals Ms. Reed........I sure do like it though. " Linc spoke as his large fingers began rubbing between her legs. Rubbing her clit through her lacy panties. His middle finger then pushed passed her panties and sank deep into her pussy. He remarked about how tight and wet she was. It was obvious, Alexandria enjoyed sex. Linc just didn't know it was apart of who she really was. It was in her DNA to enjoy sex.
 
Though she put on a calm and happy front while meeting with Linc, she still had that tension and pent up anger from dealing with the idiots from the government. So she could really go for a good fucking fight now and she was sure that Linc had a lot to offer a horny woman. As she slowly ran her foot along his calf up to his knee, she watched him through her long, thick eyelashes. The lovers that the shifter had were many and came from all over the world and from every walk of life. She even had been with two fine officers from the local police force at her home after a break in. They had certainly given her a good time and it made her look forward to the up coming Police Officer's Ball. For now, however, she was focused on the man in front of her and the growing bulge in his lap.

She felt his hand come to touch her right leg and she smiled wider as his hand slowly slid higher. Her skin was warm and extremely soft, and as his hand slid up under her snug leather skirt and between her thighs, it got warmer and as he touched her, he'd feel how wet her panties were already. "I only for certain people." she breathed as his large fingers rubbed between her legs. As his fingers rubbed her clit, she began to breath heavier and already her nipples were beginning to harden. He would be able to see them through her black blouse. When he pushed his finger past her panties and deep into her pussy, she closed her eyes with a soft gasp and a gentle mewl of pleasure before hearing him remark on how wet and tight she was. "Mm, just think of how tight and wet I'll feel around another part of you." she said while parting her legs a little further for him.

However, she could only part them so far because of her skirt. So she knew that it would have to go and soon. Because she was getting worked up and she wanted to be fucked soon.
 
Linc enjoyed the feel of Alexandria's pussy. It was so tight around his middle finger, and so very wet. He could only imagine at the moment, how it would feel wrapped around his cock. His wait wouldn't be long though. Alexandria was very horny and needed a hard cock right now. And, Alexandria always got what she wanted when it came to sex. The sex would help her relax after having such a shitty day dealing with the government. Linc finger fucked Alexandria for a few minutes. He loved the sounds she made as he fucked her. Plus, Alexandria was looking sexier and sexier. As he arousal grew. Alexandria took on a more exotic look. It was nothing anyone would noticed. However, her eyes seemed to grow darker as her need for sex grew.

Linc pulled his finger from her pussy. He suggested Alexandria lose some clothing. Linc was pretty sure Alexandria could be a wild fuck, just from looking at her. " I never thought we'd have sex to close our deal........You are so rich and powerful......You must have guys throwing themselves at your feet. " Linc spoke as he stood. He started to undress. Showing off every inch of his body to Alexandria. Linc was in great shape, just as Alexandria thought. She was also right about his cock. His coat, shirt, shoes and pants were soon gone, laying on the chair. Linc then stripped off his underwear, revealing a very hard, thick, black and beautiful monster cock. It's just what Alexandria needed at the moment. A large cock to pound her pussy into an orgasm. Linc waited until Alexandria was down stripping. He then moved closer. His long cock rubbed against her legs before they engaged in a deep and passionate kiss.
 
Though she was eager and a little impatient for him to fuck her, Alexandria did enjoy the feeling of him finger fucking her, the woman softly moaning as he did so. She gripped the edge of her desk firmly and her full lips parted as such sexy and erotic sounds came from her. As she got more and more aroused, her body was showing that arousal in different ways. Her pussy was getting wetter, her nipples were almost painfully stiff and her face was beginning to take on a flushed look. Her cheeks becoming a fetching shade of pink and her glittering eyes becoming darker with her lust.

When he removed his hand from between her legs, Alexandria swallowed softly while he told her to lose some clothing. As he spoke, she chuckled gently while watching him begin to undress. "I do get many men vying for my attention. But not many receive it." she softly said while he undressed, biting her bottom lip as more of his body became exposed to her. Normally she didn't care too much about a persons looks, but right now, the sight of his fit, strong body was really exciting her. After a couple of moments of admiring him, she pushed away from the desk and stood up.

Reaching behind her, she unzipped her leather skirt and let it slip down over her legs before she stepped out of it. Her blouse was soon to follow as she quickly unbuttoned it and slipped it down off her shoulders. When she opened it, she revealed that she'd actually not been wearing anything beneath the bra, her breasts full and perky. She was then left in just her lacy panties and her shoes, both of which were shed and left her standing there in all her sexual glory. As he moved closer to her, she reached out and ran her hands over his hard chest before their lips met in a deep and passionate kiss. Alexandria moaned into his mouth as she pressed herself against him, feeling his hard cock rubbing against her legs.
 
Linc listened as Alexandria spoke of the men vying for my attention. She said that not many receive it. This made Linc feel honored. A rich and powerful woman like Alexandria Reed, wanted him to be with her. A common man from the mean streets of Harlem. Getting the chance to fuck one of the most powerful women in New York City. Linc couldn't believe this was going to happen. Yet, Alexandria never stopped him. Soon, they embraced each other. Their lips locked in a deep and passionate kiss. The kiss grew even deeper as their tongues began to dance. Linc's hard cock rubbed against Alexandria's leg. It soon slipped between her legs and started rubbing against her dripping wet pussy. The wetness and warmth coming from Alexandria's pussy brought a deep moan from Linc. He knew no one would ever believe that he fucked Alexandria Reed, in her officer, after their meeting was over.

Linc wrapped one arm around Alexandria's waist. He easily lifted her off the floor with one arm. Showing no signs of any strain from holding her. once Alexandria lifted her legs. Linc positioned her over his cock. Using his free hand. Linc lowered Alexandria down into his thick monster cock. The huge black snake pushed into her tight pussy. Making Linc's moans even deeper. It must have been 10 inches, maybe 11 or 12 inches long. It was incredibly thick. Stretching Alexandria's pussy. Linc then began thrusting his cock up into Alexandria. Still holding her with one arm. Their bodies pressing together as their kiss continued. Linc was trying to be easy with Alexandria. Since he didn't know she was Scarlet Cat, someone who could take whatever he threw at her. Linc was trying to keep from hurting Alexandria. However, her pussy clamped down around his cock. Almost urging him to fuck her like a $2 dollar whore.
 
As they kissed, Alexandria could feel his hard body pressed against hers and her hands stroked over his skin while they kissed deeply. The feeling of his cock rubbing against her legs made her squirm just a little before she parted them just enough to let his cock slip between her soft thighs. A moan escaped her lips, swallowed by their kiss, as his cock rubbed against her hot, wet pussy. She wanted him badly and the way she kissed, touched and moved against him made that clear. She knew that no one would ever believe that she'd fucked him in her office. Other then her family, that is. But the rest of the public would call him a liar. Just as they would call the officers who had fucked her liars. Her reputation and how untouchable she seemed to the public would make them say this.

When Linc wrapped his arm around her waist, Alexandria broke the kiss with a gasp and her arms went around his broad shoulders as she was lifted off her feet. She could see that he was able to hold her with no problem and she smiled with a chuckle before wrapping her legs loosely around his waist as he began to position her over his cock. Soon she felt the tip of his cock pressing against her pussy and as he lowered her down onto it, Alexandria gasped again. This time louder as he began stretching her open as he went deeper and deeper. It had honestly been quite some time since she'd been with a man that had a cock as long and thick as the one Linc had.

Alexandria knew that she'd made a very good decision to fuck him. As he began thrusting up into her, she made a soft but high pitched sound as his monster of a cock thrust deep inside of her. "Oh god!" she gasped before kissing him again. Her pussy clamped down tightly around his cock, her breath quickening as she ran one of her hands over his chest and the other came to rest upon his back. Her breasts were pressed firmly against his chest, her hard nipples rubbing against his chest. Each time his hips thrust up, she would make a sound of pleasure and she would moan, her hips beginning to move against his when he pushed deep inside of her.
