Almost a year had gone by after the Dark Knight movie. Disney had scheduled three movies at the end of the year. So there was a lot of work for John in the following months.
In the mean time Tony with the help of Pepper had already bought a big island in the Caribbean Sea and made sure no country nearby could touch his property. Of course John too invested money in it. It was an easy cash grab anyway. Soon the first movie of the three was released in late October. It was a space sci-fi movie.
In a futuristic world where mankind has conquered the known universe, it was ruled by an Emperor and had various houses spread across the universe helping the emperor maintain peace and order. Mankind used a thing called 'spices' to travel across galaxies and this spice was only available in a single planet. Before, the planet was under a different house and suddenly the emperor decided to change the house. Basically it was a political plot. John shot this movie for it's shield technology. Apparently any thing with high velocity couldn't penetrate the shield, be it a bullet or a missile. Yes. The movie was 'Dune'.
John wanted this technology for protection from possible assassinations later. Much later he might even think of bringing out their spaceships by spending fan values. The movie premiered and people loved the movie. American people had a deep love for drama and political plots and this movie basically had everything.
[Ding
total fan value : 1.2 billion.
Fan value required to bring House of Atreides to life - 1 billion
Fan value required to bring House of Harkonnen to life - 1 billion
Fan value required for shielding technology - 400 million.]
"Thank god there is a shielding technology otherwise I would have to spend a billion for a stupid technology. Still it's 400 million. One year of savings will be gone. Well I hope it will be worth it. Extract the shielding technology" John said after seeing his panel. "Jurassic Park world will cost me another 100 million. Sigh! If this goes on I will be broke soon."
After the movie John followed Tony to Stark Tower. He needed Tony to research on shielding technology. Bruce has a home now in New York, thanks to his shares of Stark Industries that John shared with him. Bruce who came to the movie also came to Stark Tower with them as John asked for it. John after reaching to Tony's place said while bringing out a memory stick.
"I have the shielding technology in this stick. I want both of you to research but on conditions." John said. Tony almost jumped in his seat when he heard it. Bruce too had a rare interested face when he heard it.
"What condition? I can give away half my shares if you give me this stick." Tony said with excitement. John shrugged his head and the said
"No. I want only you both to research on it. Nothing of the data will be placed in a server which can be accessed by internet. Even Jarvis can't get access to the data. All the shielding equipment will not be mass produced until I say so." John said.
"Huh? No access. You think somebody will hack into Jarvis and steal it again?" Tony asked. John didn't say anything and looked at him.
"Ok fine I accept the proposal. Now give it to me. It will be weird going old school on such a high technology. Bruce this will need your help." Tony said.
"By the way the Jurassic World is coming soon. Next month I will guide them to the island from my dreams. You will have to take care of the rest. Are all the cages and personnel ready?" John asked.
"Yes. You can send them. I won't be attending the premiere for the Jurassic Park movie. I will be there on Jurassic Park to see first hand the dinosaurs. I hope they won't be late after the movie is released as I have work to do." Tony said as he too named his island as Jurassic Park.
"Sure. Even I won't be there in the premiere. I will travel to London next month." John said as he promised to be there for the premiere do Deathly Hollows. He was excited to see her again after a long time.
Soon Tony and Bruce started working on the shielding technology. And John left for his home and gave the other two space to work on the new technology.
After a couple of weeks John got ready to go to London. As be landed on the airport from his private plane he saw Emma waiting for him. He was delighted to see her. He came down and hugged her saying
"You look as lovely as ever."
"Thank you. You look great too. How was the flight?" Emma asked.
"It was fine. Slept all the way. Let's go to the hotel." John said. After they went to the hotel, John freshened up and was ready to go out. Emma had decided to go for a small tour around London showing him this historic city. John too followed her. They had a great time together and the tour ended with a fine dinner in a restaurant.
This was their first official date and John had booked a great restaurant which had privacy. Even though he was sure he had been taken pictures of during his tour of the city, he still wanted privacy when it came to the date.
