Chapter 55: Heartbreak: The connection

The same day, same hour, same second that Dantes was born

Sunset stopped pushing as she heard the sounds of a crying infant, Electro holding her hand the entire way through the painful process. Bass stood in the corner, hanging his head in shame as he knew that it should have been Treble there to help Sunset work through the pain. The doctor handed Sunset a small baby girl with the same colour of skin as her with a small layer of red hair with three yellow stripes along the top of the head.

The Château D'if

Dantes paused and looked out the barred window of his cell. "Sunchyme..."

As he said this, back in the hospital the baby ceased its crying as it heard the voice in her head.

"One day, we shall meet, and I will tell you the truth about those around you. Do not fall for Electros tricks, he is not who he says he is. One day, when we meet...he will pay for taking you and your mother from me...I will find you. My precious daughter..."

Of course, she couldn't understand what he was saying, but those words would be imprinted in the deepest parts of her mind for her entire life. She was greeted by the smiles of her mother and false father.

Dantes sat down in his cell and began to laugh...and laugh...and laugh...


One week later

Electro stood outside of Dantes' cell and looked him over. "What the hell happened to you Treble?" He asked as he saw his current state.

"I'm sorry...but Treble is no longer here." Dantes spoke darkly with a sadistic smile.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Dantes got to his feet and slowly walked towards Electro, who began to feel a great sense of fear as he got closer. "Oh, don't act like you don't know. The deep voice, the hair, how I'm SPEAKING, the change of personality...I am clearly no longer the one you know as Treble. No...you will refer to me as Dantes...the one who will avenge Treble...and the one, who's going, go break, you!" Dantes punched the cell door causing Electro to jump and yelp in fear, resulting in Dantes laughing like a lunatic.

Solid and Mist just watched in concern, having watched Treble change and suffer through the the eight months he had been imprisoned there.

Electro growled and held up a photo. "Here, I thought I'd at least show you what your kid looks like, or correction, what my kid looks like."

Dantes looked to the photo of the tiny Sunchyme and chuckled. "She's got her mother written all over her."

"I noticed." Electro tore the photo in half and threw it into the cell. "The guards have stated that you're becoming more of a danger to us, so, we're moving you and these two morons to a far more private location, sealed off from the rest of the world, no other inmates, just you three and twenty highly trained guards all armed to the teeth around a cell made of the strongest steel money can buy."

"My my, I'm almost flattered at how much trouble you'd go through just to make yourself feel safe." Dantes rolled his eyes. "Alright, I'll play your little game. So how does this work, are you going to drug me and drag me there or are you gonna get me there while I'm concious?"

Electro put on a gas mask and took a step back as sleep gas was poured into the room.

"Oh, so that's it..." Dantes stood still for about two minutes before the gas worked its way into his system and he fell unconscious.

"Get them out of here..." Electro spoke darkly as he passed the guards coming in to transport the three prisoners to another location.

"Patience is vital, your mind will soon become accustomed to the new being you have become, and your emotions shall stabilise. Do not let these unjust acts go unpunished. You are no longer the hero, but you are not the villian. You are merely the means of which justice shall be served to the sinners that you once called friends and family."


We're just gonna skip the process of Sunchyme growing up, that is for the Love Storyline to handle. We will be doing another time jump.


One year later

Deep in the underground cell, Dantes stood with his back against the wall by the door, waiting for a certain someone to walk up to deliver his meal. There was a nock on the hard steel door and a small hatch opened up where a plate of bread and mashed potatoes with a glas of water slid in from. Before the hatch could close Dantes slid a small container, about the size of a pill bottle, filled with white liquid through the hole. "Have you found a suitable candidate?" He asked in a hushed voice.

"Yes." A mature, feminine voice spoke back. "She has agreed to the contract and seems to have some emotional ties to you, she'll do nicely."

"Who is this woman?" Dantes asked.

"You'll see once the plan is put into action."

Dantes chuckled darkly and closed the hatch. "Very well...I'll see you in thirteen years."

The woman on the other side remained silent as she walked away.

"Ha...happy birthday to me...and you Sunchyme." Once again the infant heard the voice but didn't understand, as her family and friends stood around her while singing happy birthday to her.


13 years later

Hack, Eclipse, Onyx, Bass and Casino all sat around a table at a bar, all with tired faces and beers in their hands. "I'll tell ya...raising kids ain't easy..." Hack groaned as he took a large swing of his drink.

"Yeah...from keeping up with them, the sleepless nights and the money you have to spend on them...Pyra help us..." Eclipse said sadly.

"Pyra stopped listening to us long ago..." Hack mumbled. "With raising the triplets to all the bills coming round, I'm up to my top hay in debt..."

"Same..." The others groaned. This debt was not caused by their spending, but the doing of a certain company that had been set up two years beforehand.

"Excuse me, did I hear that you guys are strapped for cash?" They heard a deep voice ask from behind them.

"What's it to you mysterious stranger?" Hack grumbled as he sat up and turned around.

"Well, I've heard a few things about you guys from some thugs that met ya a little over a decade ago and I think me and my partner have a job for you that could sort out your financial trouble for life."

The group looked to each other and sighed. "Well, it's better than having to work overtime just to pay everything and become even more exhausted than before." Onyx admitted.

"Alright, what the hell. Care to give us your names?" Casino asked.

The man smiled and extended his hand in greeting. "The names Solid Will, and this is Mist Hunter, pleased to meet you."

Author's Notes:

Soon the acts of revenge shall begin. And yes, Hack gets triplets in both timelines, but you don't get to see them yet.

Also, that part after the 1 year skip is part of a thing I really should have thought of sooner, if you read a certain blog you'll know what I'm talking about. And you can probably guess what was in that little bottle.

Anyway, now we're getting closer and closer to the main event. I hope you are as excited as I am, because things are going to get...very bloody.
