Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't updated recently- I had finals and in about 2 weeks I'm going to Washington D.C. with my family, so I've been preparing for that as well. I actually re-watched Tron Legacy the other day and realized I hadn't updated in a while. I also watched The Next Day thing to help me with this chapter. Anyways, I decided to do this in Alan's POV to mix things up a bit. I hope you enjoy!
Please read, follow, and review! :)

Sam had known that when his father disappeared, Alan took over ENCOM. What he didn't know was that the company was slipping through his fingers. The year was 1990. Alan was losing to Dillinger Systems.
Dillinger. A name that stuck like glue in Alan's mind. Edward Dillinger was the CEO before Flynn and Alan, and was like a mini dictator. He controlled what went on in the real world, and on The Grid. He had a program as well, but he was controlled by the Master Control Program, or MCP for short. Once Flynn came back to ENCOM after Dillinger "resigned", he had everything become free and open. Alan wanted that to stay with the company, but with Dillinger breathing down his neck once again, he just couldn't. As much as he didn't want to, he had to give the company up. As Alan was explaining this to Sam, he got a page from Dillinger himself, or so he presumed. He told Sam that he would be back in a minute or two, and went and stopped by a mini-mart to use the payphone, as he didn't own a cellphone. Dillinger picked up.
"You're no longer the CEO of ENCOM."
Alan knew this was coming sooner or later, but he wanted to act surprised.
"What?"
Dillinger laughed. "Don't act so surprised. You knew this was coming." He hung up.
As Alan walked out, he didn't know what to say to Sam.
Flynn…
What do I do now?
He must have had a look of shock on his face when he got back to the car, because Sam asked what was wrong.
"I wish your dad was here. He was better at being a CEO of a company better than I was," he chuckled nervously.
Sam looked him straight in the eye and said:
"Damn straight."
