Sam's POV

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::

A few hours before Loki and Clu accessed the portal...

It was wierd being back especially after what happened on the grid. I was still trying to process everything. Should I tell Alan about the grid? Naw I don't think he would believe me. I mean he doesn't even know about Quorra, well actually nobody knows about Quorra except for me. I sighed as these thoughts raced through my head. I sped off on my motorcycle towards Encom tower. I was finally taking the company back I parked my motorcycle in the garage.

"Damn I'm going to be late and it's my first day." I mumbled this to myself as I ran towards the elevator.

I started pressing the button for the elevator to open several times.

"Come on, come on open." I pleaded as I waited for the elevator to open.

The elevator door chimed signaling it was going to open. "Finally. That took long enough." I said this relieved.

The elevator brought me up to the 30th floor where all the board members were going to have their meeting. I ran towards the meeting room. I opened the door, everyone just stared and waited for me to take my seat.

"Sam. It's good too see you." Alan said as I took the seat next to him.

"It's good to see you too, Alan." I said

The meeting lasted for at least two hours. I was so bored. How could dad sit through these? I thought this to myself. I could tell that Dillenger still had a grudge with me. It was pretty awkward being in the same room as him. The meeting was finally over.

"Thank god. It's finally over." I said this to myself.

Alan approached me. "So how was your first day at work?"

"Good but a little boring. Alan I kinda need to go." I said.

"Ok see you tomorrow Sam." Alan said and then waved good bye.

I couldn't wait to go home and see Quorra. I ran towards my bike and sped off towards my apartment. Luckily traffic wasn't to bad and I finally made it home.

"Quorra I'm home. I brought some takeout food for dinner." I said.

Quorra came from the back room holding Marv.

"Sam, you're finally home. I missed you. Oh and I think I might have broken your toaster oven." Quorra said this with a sheepish smile.

"Oh don't worry about that, Quorra. I'll just get a new one. Hey how are you liking the real world?" I said.

"It's amazing. Though somethings are really confusing and hard to get used too." Quorra said.

"You'll get used to the routine in time. You've only been here less than a few days. Come on Quorra let's have some dinner I'm starving." I said as I took the food out of the bag.

Quorra and I sat down to eat, we had a view to the water front and the city.

"It's beautiful." Quorra said this in an awed voice.

"I'm glad you think so." I said.

Quorra and I talked for what seemed like more than an hour. We sat on the couch and relaxed and enjoyed our view of the city. A few moments later I saw a huge beam of light that was not there before. I got up and started walking towards the opening of the garage so I could get a closer look.

"What's wrong Sam?" Quorra said seeming confused.

I just stared ahead, I could then see a huge ship coming out of the beam of light. That's impossible, It looks exactly like the ship Clu had built. But that's crazy, Clu's ship was destroyed, and Clu was derezzed when dad reintegrated with him. I stared at the ship terrified, Quorra got up to stand beside me. Once she saw the ship she looked 10 times more horrified than I did.

"That's Clu's ship. No wait I can see two ships now." Quorra said.

"What the hell! That's impossible! How could have Clu even survived the reintegration?! Not to mention he now has more than one ship!" I said this in an outraged and terrified tone.
