History
My Firefly
The Pinehearst Company is the enemy of the Company. The war between the two companies results in the deaths of Noah and Sandra Bennet.
Volume One: Cataclysm
Pinehearst represents one of three factions at war. Their interests include producing and selling the Evolution shot for profit. Unfortunately, the Formula diagram which is essentially the "recipe" for their flagship product was stolen by Hiro Nakamura sometime in 2011, resulting in a major price spike for the shot. Arthur Petrelli, the company's President, spends much of his time directing the activities of his Martial Division. His alpha team is led by Claire Bennet. After the Costa Verde Disaster kills Knox and fatally injures Daphne Parkman, Matt Parkman is recruited for her. He immediately betrays her. Claire begins searching for Matt after he escapes with Peter Petrelli's body. Arthur sends User:CreedogV/The World Entire/Ando Masahashi after the Formula diagram. He succeeds in getting half of the diagram, but at the cost of his former best friend. Arthur uses Flint Gordon to deal with the returning Matt, who easily outsmarts him. He then sends Barbara Zimmerman after the other half of the diagram, which he realizes must be with Peter.
Pinehearst plans an all-out attack on the Company, but despite being the stronger foe, they are easily defeated due to a number of factors. Gabriel is able to cure Claire's analgesia, causing her to have an emotional breakdown and desert her team. The Haitian, loyal to Angela Petrelli from the start, double-crosses and lobotomizes Arthur. Without any leadership, the rest of the Pinehearst agents flee. Unfortunately, since all of the martial division was part of the Offensive, they left the Pinehearst Building unprotected. Meredith Gordon burned down the headquarters, effectively shutting down Pinehearst.
