Chapter 36: Love: Brotherhood

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

As everyone left their home, Sunset and Treble sat on their couch, Trebles head resting on Sunsets lap as he pressed his ear to her stomach. "You're not gonna hear or feel anything silly, it's way too early for that." Sunset joked.

Treble just smiled and shrugged.

"You just wanna be close to it don't you?"

"Aye." Oh, look at that, haven't heard him say that in a while have we?

Sunset chuckled and leaned back in her seat, just soaking in the peace as she held her lovers head on her lap as the two began to fall into a peaceful sleep...

Which was interrupted by a knock at the door. Treble sat up and raised a brow, wondering if one of his friends had come back for something. Getting up and opening the front door he was pleasantly surprised by who was standing there. "Bass?"

"Hey big bro, how's it-" Bass was cut off as Treble brought him into a bone crushing hug.

"Missed you!" Treble exclaimed as he hugged his half brother tightly.

"Can't...breathe..."

Treble heard this and set Bass down who then began to catch his breath. "Heheh, sorry."

"Treble! Who's at the door?" Sunset called.

"Come here!" He called back.

Sunset walked into the front hall and stood beside her lover before looking at Bass. "Who's this hon?"

Bass cleared his throat and extended his hand. "I am Bass, Treble is my older half brother."

Sunset took his hand and shook. "I didn't know Treble had a brother, it's nice to meet you Bass, I'm Sunset Shimmer, Trebles girlfriend." She then turned to Treble. "Why didn't you tell me you had a brother?" He just gave her a deadpan look. "Oh...right." She said sheepishly having forgotten about his speech problems for a second.

"Um, is it alright if I come in? I have something very important that I need to tell Treble." Bass asked with worry evident in his voice.

"Of course, come in. I'll make us all a cup of tea." Sunset answered as the trio then walked into the living room.

Bass began to tell the two everything. Electros plan, X's location, everything that he could remember he told them. Sunset was shocked to learn that it was Trebles father that had been sending the thugs after them, and even more surprised to find that Treble had not managed to hunt him down yet, although he wasn't for a lack of trying mind you.

He continued by telling them of what Electro hoped to gain from the plan, what was offered and what would come as a bonus. Sunset just held her hands to get mouth in shock as she listened, Treble only keeping a straight face while listening carefully, now having yet another enemy to put down.

"That's everything I know, I'm sorry I don't know anything else." Bass said as he sighed.

"Thank you." Treble said quietly as he got up and walked into the kitchen with Scary scuttling after him. Frightening climbed up the couch and rested on Sunsets shoulder as she looked over to Bass who was hanging his head.

"Electro had planned to kill Treble and take me for himself?" Sunset asked disgusted.

"Exactly...Electro can do anything as long as things go to plan, but without me there and my sudden disappearance from the group he will be confused and unable to plan. We need to strike now while he's unable to recover or he'll just think of a new plan." Bass turned to look at Treble who had his hands on the kitchen counter as he stared at the ground, rage emitting off of him like smoke. "Treble...you know what needs to happen."

Treble remained still as he sighed. "I do." He spoke in a hushed voice. "Stay here." He said softly as he walked past his brother and cupped Sunsets cheek. "Love you." With that he slipped his red brass knuckles into his new jacket and walked out the door, ready to hunt down Electro before he could ruin anyone's life.

He took out his phone and texted three of his friends, having to leave out Casino as he was visiting family after the party.


Two hours later

At the bar Electro and Chord were sitting in trying to form a new plan everything went silent as loud noises were heard from the outside. There was the sound of a shotgun firing and four sets of footsteps approaching the door.

"So how much C4 is this gonna take?" Onyx asked.

"Dude, fuck math, just use all of it." Eclipse said, none of the guys inside could actually hear them it was just murmurs to them.

After a few seconds of beeping the entrance exploded, the metal door being thrown across the room. Treble, Hack, Eclipse and Onyx all jumped out from the dust cloud. "What's up bitcheeeeeeesssss!" Hack yelled as he cocked his shotgun cane, yes it's a thing now. "Good news! All we want is the two assholes in the corner! Bad news! We're all gonna die someday!" Eclipse cocked his own shotgun, Onyx spun his nunchucks and Treble bashed his brass knuckles together. "And be te dubs, if anyone gets in our way you die!"

The thugs that had gotten up to defend themselves backed away, some having had this asses handed to them by Treble before. Electro tried to make a break for it but Treble punched him in the jaw and kicked him into the alley. A few of Electros hired guards began to rush Treble but were counted by his friends. "We'll deal with these assholes, you get Electro." Onyx said, receiving a nod in response before Teeble began rushing after the fleeing Electro.

Hack knocked his opponent away and turned around, coming face to face with Chord. "So, you wanna fight or somethin?" Chord asked.

Hack shrugged. "Eh, I could go for a quick brawl." The two jumped at each other and began to throw punches, Hack spinning his cane before bringing it down on Chords head. Chord spun on the floor and knocked off his feet.

As Electro looked back he saw Treble gaining on him. He eventually reached a bridge that stood over a train track. Looking down the way he saw that a train was about to pass under him. As Treble was about to catch him he jumped over the railing and landed on a train car. Treble jumped after him and landed on the edge of the very last car before he began to make his way up to Electro.

A fight on the top of a speeding train huh? And here I thought this story was about slice of life and romance.

Author's Notes:

I am pretty much the master of cliffhangers at this point.
