[b][color=cornflowerblue]"We’re talking about bringing an end to climate change. That’s the future of our [i]entire[/i] planet, Sue. What kind of simple mind would choose to place profit over that?"[/color][/b]

Sue smiled softly but kept her eyes locked on Lex.

[b][color=paleturquoise]"I’m not accusing anyone of anything, Reed, I just need to hear from the horse’s mouth that this isn’t going to become something… something [i]ugly[/i]…"[/color][/b]

Lex locked eyes with Sue and made a grimace. He was upset. He clenched his hands into fists trying to calm himself for a response. The other two scientists merely stared at the trio standing next to the generator in silence. Not twenty minutes ago they had witnessed Lex fire a man for tripping over a piece of equipment that wouldn't even fit inside the machine. Lex looked at his project and gave the metal hulk a pat. 

[color=39b54a]"You are a very intelligent woman Susan and I respect you fiance as a scientific mind equal to my own so I won't lie to you."[/color] Lex paused and cleared his throat. He was still calming himself down. [color=39b54a]"My government contracts require me to inform our military and scientific leaders whenever I come across a break through on this scale. A colleague of mine, a general by the name of Ross, approached me to create experimental weapons for his troops based on this technology to be tested on a... certain problem he is having." [/color]

Lex walked over to his desk and placed his notebook back into its drawer. The lights flickered once again and he made another grimace. Reed had a distraught look on his face while Sue remained composed. He clenched his fist again under the desk so that they wouldn't notice.

[color=39b54a]"I told him no with a few added choice words. If this technology is successful.... no WHEN this technology is successful it will be for the betterment of the human race. This is my technology, mine. I will not allow it to be weaponised in any form."[/color] He leaned back in his chair and let out a sigh. He looked across the room at his unfinished equation. 

He looked at his watch as if he were checking the time. His fun was over, it was time to get back to work. He forced a smile and let out his most convincing fake laugh. Standing he walked back to the couple.

[color=39b54a]"Well it was good to see you again Reed but I really must get back to work. I want to get this whole building running off this generator by the end of the week.[/color] He smiled and shook each of their hands again. [color=39b54a]"I'll give you a call sometime and we can compare notes in a less formal setting. My receptionist will show you out, and don't hesitate to ask for anything. They have been told to make your visit as welcoming as possible."[/color]
