Had he done it? Had he finally gotten out of that grid nightmare? Sam looked around; it seemed to him that yes he had made it out alive. The arcade looked normal, so did he, but where was Quorra, had she made it? "I mean she was an ISO and had no real genetics or form before so it was possible that she hadn't made it. Sam walked out of his father's arcade shop to be greeted by Alan Bradley. "Am I really back?" Sam asked.

"From where? You went to the arcade only about 30 minutes ago I just came to check on you and see if you found Anything" Alan replied.

Sam was left speechless. Right before he had left the grid, he had talked with his father, and he had told Sam that he would have only been gone for about 15 to 20 minutes in the real world and that he needed to talk with Alan when they got back. Sam's concentration was broken suddenly when Quorra broke through the door and Sam rushed over with Alan not far behind him. Sam and Quorra had only been talking for about 30 seconds when Alan interrupted

"What in the world is going on here, Sam you never told me about she, who is she?"

Sam replied "look Alan we need to talk soon, I found my dad but he was left behind. Meet me at my place tomorrow morning and I will explain... I still need to find out what happened myself."

In the grid...

"What had happened?" Tron thought... then the answer hit him like a brick wall... He realized he had been Rinzler... he had been the destroyer of many programs... all because of CLU... his thoughts were in little bursts. CLU... CLU... CLU... It was CLU's turn; it was all his fault, now Tron was filled with anger for the first time. Then he looked up at the sky and it was filled with a burst of light... his senses told him that the creator was dead... nothing remaining mattered, Kevin was dead... all because what he did on the light jet was not good enough, all because of CLU... "NOOO!" this was not happening it was his entire fault. What happened to fighting for the users... suddenly his thoughts started fading... Tron realized the white sky was gone... but his vision was being replaced with darkness. He needed to get out of the water... back to the grid... or whatever was left... not much... probably.

After what seemed like many hours of struggling in the darkness. His vision left him but then he felt it... the grid and he pulled himself up... his vision returned, he was filled with energy and he rested. But it was not permanent. He would find the horror that awaited him later.

The next day, Sam woke up and prepared to face Alan, who had been his second dad sense that life changing day,... there was a knock at the door and Sam answered it. Everything was spinning, he was dreading this moment, and he took a breath.

"Kevin, I mean dad died in there."

"Where?" Alan replied

"in that... place"

"what place?"

"in the arcade I discovered a lab... and something happened... And then I was th-"

"tell me that there wasn't a lazer."

"actually there was." Sam said

Suddenly, Alan looked worse than ever. "your dad told me that he left that project when CLU destroyed the ISOs"

"actually he didn't destroy all the ISOs..."

"you don't really mean that..."

"yes, I do."

both were silent for almost 15 minutes, then Alan was the first to say something. "I remember when I was amazed when your dad told me about the first grid I thought it was spectacular, but I never thought it would be the end of him."

"Alan I want to see whats left of the grid and reconstruct it"

"Sam you have no clue what what you are saying I'm not going to stop you but I don't think that that's a very good idea, Sam" Alan said

"Alan yesterday I told you that I wanted to take over ENCOM, but I don't know that I'm ready."

"Sam you're going to need to get a real job and what better than to take over your dad's business, Sam it's what your dad wanted"

"I'm still not shore, Alan I'm going to need some time to think."

End of Line

It will pick up from here. The first three chapters are kind of quick, but the fourth chapter I will really go into detail, the first three were to get the balls rolling, so to speak.
