Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Accident

Soon the president was in front of Dexter on the stage, he put out his hand for a handshake as he said,

"Hello Dexter nice to meet you."

Dexter didn't know what was happening and just put out his hand and shook him.

"Nice to meet you too." Dexter said with a smile.

"I would love to ask you a few questions." The president said.

"I would love to answer you but can it wait after the presentation."

The president was surprised, he thought that exposing Andrew was the whole presentation but it seemed he was wrong.

"Ok then, I will be on my seat." And the president went back to his seat.

There was pin drop silence as the president walked up the aisle, no one wanted to make a sound now that they knew the president was around.

Dexter saw how quiet everyone was and wondered who he was to make everyone quieten like this.

After the president sat down Dexter wasted no more time and started his presentation.

"Ok everyone, sorry for that initial disturbance, now to business." Dexter paused and cleared his throat.

"I was involved in a bet to create laser tech before a week and now I want to present to you the first ever weapon made laser tech."

After Dexter said that, everyone was hoping to see the entry of someone holding a device or something but nothing happened.

Then the nanotech suit immediately covered Dexter's body.

"I thought he was showing us his laser tech, why did he suddenly wear his suit?"

"I don't know let's watch and find out."

The president on the other hand had a different thought going through his mind,

"That suit kinda look like that red suit, they both have the same design."

Though Dexter changed the look of the suit the time he went to Iran, he couldn't change the design of the nanotech, so if someone looked closely they would see a similarity.

After Dexter made his suit, he then raised his hand, the nanotech in his hand morphed and changed and then a handgun was seen in his hands.

Elizabeth wasn't idol either and had already brought a practice dummy to the stage.

Dexter raised the handgun in his hands and then shot at the practice dummy.

It all happened in a flash, they saw a flash of light leave the nuzzle of the gun and then head towards the dummy.

Before they knew what was happening they saw a hole in the chest of the dummy.

Everyone was stunned and then there was a round of applause.

Even the president stood up to clap, "I must get this guy," He thought.

After the applause died down Dexter went on to say,

"This is our latest invention, Laser gun." Dexter said and pointed to the at the gun in his hands.

There was another round of applause after he said that.

After the presentation, Dexter left the hall and was stopped by the middle aged man he saw earlier that shook his hand on the stage.

"Hey Dexter I said I would like to have a word with you, can I have that word now?" The president asked.

Dexter nodded and led the president to his temporary office.

Dexter sat down and gestured for the president to sit down as well.

"So how may I help you sir?" Dexter asked.

"You were the one that attacked those terrorists in Iran right?" The president asked.

He wasn't hundred percent sure but he had a hunch that it was him who attack.

Dexter didn't seem to hid anything and just nodded then said, "It was me."

The president was surprised that he just exposed himself so blatantly.

"Aren't you worried I might do something?"

"No, for you to be here it means you have something else you want to ask me and not just that." Dexter said with a smile.

"Very perceptive of you, I do want to ask you something else, I just hope you would honor my wish."

"Depends on what you ask?" Dexter grinned.

The president wasted no more time and asked,

"I would love for you to create more suits like yours for the country, so I ask, can you do it?"

"For the country!?" Dexter thought, which person would have enough power to make him create enough suits for the whole country, then it hit him, he looked at the man in front of him in shock and asked,

"Are you the president?"

"Glad you finally noticed," The president answered smiling.

"Well in that case I accept your offer." Dexter said and shook the president's hand.

After a few more details Dexter left the office with the president.

"I hope we can work well together." The president said and patted him on the shoulder before he left.

Elizabeth walked to Dexter and asked,

"What did the president talk to you about?"

"Just some collaboration no biggie." Dexter answered.

"Hey, Elizabeth!" Dexter said and she turned to face him, "Did you know he was the president all along?"

"Yes of course." Elizabeth seemed to notice were the question was heading and asked,

"You didn't?" Dexter just rubbed the back of his head and blushed, it was kind of embarrassing to not have recognized your president.

Elizabeth seeing his blushing face felt kind of happy in her heart that she couldn't explain, she was happy to see the side of Dexter that he barely showed as he always acted calm and casual.

"Hey have you had lunch, I know a good place nearby." Elizabeth offered.

"Yeah sure."

************

As they both walked down the street they heard the sound of an engine behind them.

Dexter turned to have a look and saw a car speeding towards them, instinctively he shielded Elizabeth with his body and took the brunt of the car collision.

Elizabeth screamed and rushed to the semi conscious Dexter.

"Where am I?" That was the last thing he said before his eyes closed.
