The next morning, the broken window at the Tempest has already been fixed. In front of the building a press conference is being held. There are a group of people on a stage and a man speaking behind a podium. Hundreds of people and aliens gather around to hear his speech.
“We will all work together, so that humans and all alien species can live together in harmony,” says the man.
At the back of the crowd, Eve Starling holds the hand of her six year old son. Eve is in her mid twenties and is considered to be a little person, standing just over five foot with a very thin figure. She has long blonde wavy hair and bright blue eyes. Her son looks up towards her.
“Mummy, what’s he saying?”
“He’s going to change the world honey,” she replies.
As the man on the stage finishes his speech, the crowd applauds.
“He’s finished, I want to see Daddy now,” the boy says excited, with one hand pulling his mother’s arm and the other pointing at the stage.
“Daddy’s busy Maddy, we’ll see him later.”
The man on the stage smiles at the crowd then turns around to consult the people standing behind him, two men and a woman. One of the men is large and muscular while the other is blonde and lanky. The woman is slender and tanned with long straight brown hair.
“Nicely said Mayor Jones,” the lanky blonde man states.
“Thank you Liam,” replies the Mayor. The Mayor walks off the stage with the other man and the woman while Liam stares into the crowd. He sees Eve and her son Maddy and acknowledges them by nodding his head. He then follows the other three off the stage to and onto a helicopter.
