Ok. He starts from the slums. Lex has watched from his bedroom window as a child the most hopeless and pathetic human beings walking the streets...and looking up at the skies to something hopeful, imagining something far greater lies ahead for him. Vowing not to end up like those on the streets...Vowing not to end up like his abusive father and weak mother....those who did not care for - and those who would shatter his dreams of a better future. They remained a constant reminder to him, as his hate and disgust grew through the years while watching them all.
Lex, unwilling to associate himself with a society around him he deeply loathed, kept himself to himself...becoming a recluse. Unable to find and unwilling to make friends with the teens who had no desire in bettering themselves to leave the slums, the fools who had no piece of mind like his, Lex shunned their company and busied himself learning and researching. No interest in friendship, no desire for love, no concern for others...Lex spent most of his teen years working hard to escape the **** that surrounded him. For he would rather die than be a slave to the ills of society that smothered each and every one within it.
Eventually graduating from school with the highest marks for computer and sciences possible, Lex was immediately found with a problem...it takes money to make it in this world, and he had none - nor his useless parents.
Looking at that sky, and looking back down at the slums...taking the words of wise men of business, those who have made it in the world, Lex was to make sure nothing stopped him from obtaining his dreams, to do everything he could for them...And he knew what it was that could potentially stop him...a conscience. Because the only way he could obtain the money to obtain his dream, required him to completely wipe away the notion of a conscience. Why would he feel guilty for doing it to people who had no love for him? Why would he feel guilty to doing it the lowest forms of human being, which he depised? He had no reason to pull back...he had no good reason not to kill his parents...they hated him for existing and the feeling was mutual.
So taking out an insurance policy on his parents, taking up several low earning jobs around town, Lex paid his way for the next few years, til he could finally get his hands on that money.
Time passed and the money was good and waiting...Lex decided to treat his parents with a night out...loaning them the money and for once he thought, they actually seemed grateful with him...was it love he felt? Or was it just the fact that they were given money to enjoy themselves and the 'deceitful feeling' of love was simply because of that? Lex didn't care, it was too late for any of them to feel love...
Lex headed inside and went to his bedroom. Silently watching from his window, Lex saw his parents car pull away...seconds later, the sound of a terrible crash was heard down the street, flames consuming his parents car...Lex stood frozen...was he feeling guilt? Guilty for sabotaging the car earlier? No...Good, he thought...not weak. Peeling his eyes from the chaos, they were drew to that sky...the horizon was so full of promise and hope...He smiled, as a single and mysterious tear rolled down his cheek...the last and most honest tear he would ever shed.
As the years passed, Lex became one of the highest and most respected student at MIT. It was here Lex pretended to care about his surroundings. Why was it that he hated everything around him more than that of the slums? Life was better for him, he finally had gotten what he wanted...or so he thought. He found it hard to make friends with people who were actually like him...he hated, but respected them. He didn't know why exactly....but soon realized it was because he was jealous of them. He was jealous of them for being like him...he was jealous when they were praised and he wasn't...even when there was nothing for him to be praised for. He was better...he knew it.
Lex hated them for pretending to be things for which they were not...he knew that was the code however...he was good at lying through his teeth. He had enough practice, what with the police coming to interview him after his parents 'accident'.
He didn't like lying, but respected how it helpful it was. To be honest, he didn't know at times what was the truth and what was the lie. The lie became his truth, as far as others were concerned....and only til he was faced with what he had said, did he remember if it was truth or not...that was his skill, that's how slippery he was and nobody could see it.
His first real relationship...Lex wouldn't say it was his first 'love'...he didn't love her. He wanted her, because he could see how much the others wanted her. It was a case of beauty over brains with this girl, he often looked at her and thought of who she must have slept with in order to get here? Lex had to brush up his skills on how to entice winterest in sex...but it felt good to him...not in the way the others described their sordid detailsomen...but he thought she was only with him so quickly because of his popularity. Still, he made the others jealous..that was the goal in this game. There would be cold nights of the two lying in bed...her complaining of Lex being too rough...of being a different man...But, honestly, he had no real interest in sex...but it felt good to him...not in the way the others described their sordid details, which made him feel nothing but disgust. It made him feel in control over her...that she was relying him to make her feel good...he was in full control over her,
physically and mentally...also he knew, he liked to hurt her, and she couldn't do anything to stop him from doing that. The relationship ended after only 2 months...he didn’t care.
 
The professors at MIT were impressed and inspired by Lex as the years passed...Every course he took, he passed with flying colors - Computational and Systems Biology, Mechanical Engineering
, Biological Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, Business and Management. With AeroAstro, did Lex manage to pull the attention of some high power...Not long, he was working as a scientist for NASA. His skills as an enigneer and his wild theories on Astrobiology were met with great respect and but raised some difficult questions. Lex believed that more should be done to explore the Universe, which could and would benefit mankind...and adding his personal speech that when he was a boy, he would look to the skies for hope.
 
Believing his own words and hype, Lex became something of the entrepreneur. Proposing his ideas to several potential investors into his brand new NASA project, to fund the greatest voyage to space...to explore the possibilities of what we could learn and gain. Many were not enthusiastic about Lex’s dream, believing there was nothing out there that could benefit them.
So...with no other choice, Lex decided to start his own comapny. With his contacts, he resorted to starting up a company that could use all his skills, to help the Military and the general public...is this what people wanted to see from him...not his crackpot theories of Alien matter. But this only infuriated Lex inside...made him even more bitter. How dare they accuse his dreams of being insane...
 
Starting small, his company grew and grew...by age 40, Lex was CEO of Luthorcorp...A conglomerate which manufactured on the largest scale of technology and sciences to benefit mankind...but unknown to the public, unknown to anyone except a few...Lex had something hidden away...the very thing people would not invest in...his dreams of exploring the outer boundaries of exsistence. As money went into his secret - unethical projects, something else had caught his attention...something that they laughed at him about...the arrival of an Alien...could he be the answer Lex had been searching for? Could he be the one to bring him to that ultimate power which he desired?
