Walking into his suite on the top floor of the building, Marshall Gordon took a deep breath. He took in the exquisite decorations in his suite, the plush green carpet, the lacquered oak desk and polished leather chair, accompanied with his state-of-the-art desktop computer. The thick, granite walls gave him the privacy he never got outside the room, and the personal washroom, kitchen and bedroom meant he could live in relative privacy when not taking on day-to-day activities.
He had no cameras or security installed in his room itself. It was a fortress, there was no need. There was only one way in, and that was through the locked, polished plywood covered titanium doors he had just entered though. The windows were constructed with reinforced framework and a new form of plastic glass that was both durable, and could withstand a missile blast. He intended to release it to the world eventually, but for the greatest profit, he needed other security companies to be knocked down slightly, and so, it wasn't yet a well-known development.
It had been a long day, and constant meetings with potential clients as well as updates on current projects had kept him up since 4am. It was now 8pm, and Marshall was drained, and needed a rest. He walked over to the bedroom, not bothering to take a peak into the washroom, where the tap began to pour water, the marble basin overflowing.

The puddle of water grew on the jade marble tiles in the washroom and eventually, the tap stopped running. The sink was dry and the pool of water seemed to all hold itself in one place rather than spread around.
A lump formed in the middle, and raised rather quickly, taking the shape of a head, followed by a neck, shoulders, arms and torso, hands and hips and finally legs and feet. A figure of a man, completely made of water, stood over where the puddle once was, the floor beneath his feet dry.
The features of the body began to look human, and after a few seconds, Blake stood, an elegant suit on and his hair well-groomed. He stepped forward, leaving the washroom and silently following his father.
Marshall, now in his bedroom, noticed in the mirror a figure behind him, emerging from the washroom. Shocked, he turned around and noticed his son standing across the room.
"Blake?" He stammered, surprised to see the man standing before him.
Blake smiled, a more eerie smile than a pleased one, "hello, father." He crossed the room quickly towards Marshall.
