Chapter 56: Love: The final straw

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Treble and the rest of the guys all ran over to Onyx's house after being called there for something just before X had sprung his trap on the girls and Sunset. Onyx opened the door and lead them down into his basement where he had a few computers set up. "Alright guys, if we're going to do this, we do it now. X has, for once, outsmarted us." He said darkly, trying his best to keep calm when in truth he was filled to the brim with rage.

"What's happened?" Oceanic asked while he placed a hand on his friends shoulder.

Onyx took in a breath and sighed. "X wasn't in the compound while Roden was there investigating, so I had called you here to be ready for when he returned...however, it turns out that he was on the school grounds..." The group looked to each other uneasily.

"What did he do?" Sparkjump asked with worry.

"He took them, he took them all. He has the girls trapped in the main building of The Black Ca-"

*crack*

All of them heard glass shatter, cutting him off before he could finish. They all turned to Treble who had his sunglasses in his closed hand, crushed as he gripped them in anger. It seemed as if shadows had washed over him as his body appeared black as one eye glowed red in absolute rage. He threw the broken glasses down and began walking up the stairs towards the front door of the house. Hack growled and gripped his cane, Casino gritted his teeth as he pulled out his razor sharp cards, Eclipse pumped a shotgun, Sparkjump and Oceanic grabbed some baseball bats that were sitting in the basement, Silver cracked his knuckles, Bass cocked a revolver and Onyx swung his nunchucks.

Treble, who was walking down the pathway, pulled out his brass knuckles and pounded them together furiously. He was done playing games, he was through with showing remorse. X could mess with him, he could mess with his friends, he could mess with the innocent people of the city...but he could never, EVER, mess with his family. He was going to show that bastard what fear really was, who was running this town and who was stronger.

But he was going to show him something better, he was going to give him a reason to never come back. He pulled out his phone and sent a text to a particular relative, one that could help him do some damage. He got an instant reply, one which made him grin like a madman.

Word to the wise of any villians, crooks or anyone who tries to cross him, you need to head these words very, very carefully.

You don't, fuck, with Treble Clef.


Meanwhile

X sat down in his throne-like chair and watched the door patiently, his eyes narrow as he kept his hand on a large knife hidden under his coat. All the girls where cuffed and chained to the wall, all sitting down glaring at the man, except for Fluttershy who was shivering in fear. "I expected some kind of disturbance by now..." He said quietly.

"You'll regret this you know?" X looked over to see Sunset glaring at him. "You know full well what's going to happen."

"That I do my dear, Treble will burst through that door and we will have our showdown. The winner of this battle in unclear, but it will settle a score that has lasted a very long time. This is the final act, and the winner shall bring the final curtain call." He said as he got out of his seat and walked towards her.

"Treble will win for sure, and I'm not just saying that it of hope or ignorance. No, I'm saying that because he has a very, very important reason for winning, something that will drive him to new heights just to rescue me and beat your sorry ass." Sunset continued with a smirk.

"My my, my son really knows how to pick 'em. So much strength, so much spirit, so much willpower. No wonder he fell for you. Alright, tell me, what is the reason that he will win?" He asked while kneeling down in front of her.

"Come closer." Sunset said. X did as he was told and moved closer, when she whispered into his ear. "I'm pregnant with his child."

X's eyes went wide in horror as he pulled away and stared at her. He noticed the small bump on her stomach and backed away. He knew all too well what happens when Treble was angered to an almost life threatening state. "Oh you have to be fucking kidding me!" He threw his arms up in the air and grabbed his phone. "Jegger, make sure this entire place is locked down! Now!"

"Sorry boss, but I'm afraid I'll have to ignore you. I quit, I'm not getting caught in the spiderweb of that kids anger with you. You did this to yourself, so face the consequences of your actions."

With that Jegger hung up and drove off far away from the main building, passing a large black truck on the highway that was driving top speed towards the front entrance of the building with a large black armoured vehicle following close behind at a slowe speed. The driver of the truck caught sight of the entrance and narrowed his crimsion eyes. He didn't slow down, even with the huge tank of oil attached to the back of the truck, he kept going. As he grew closer one of his red eyes gleamed in the dark before the truck reached the main gate.

It burst through the metal bars and rammed it's way through multiple cars blocking the way until finally, it rushed the entrance.

*BOOM!!!*

A huge explosion shook the ground as the front area of the compound was completely decimated. The other vehicle pulled up and all the guys except Treble jumped out with various weapons in their hands. They all looked to the large field of fire and saw a figure stand up from the wreckage of the truck. It looked back to them before fading away, walking into the now open building.

"How the hell did he survive that?" Oceanic asked in disbelief. "I know the guy is tough and hard to kill but seriously..."

"Think about it later Ocean..." Hack said as he pumped his shotgun cane and looked around at all the soldiers moving in around them. "...we've got other things to worry about." All of them raised there weapons and formed a circle, ready to take on their foes.


In the main building

Dust fell from the ceiling as the shockwave washed over the area. Sunset and the girls all smiled, knowing who had caused it. X, meanwhile, was clenching his fists in anger. He stopped as he heard screams from down the hall and then silence. After a few moments the door exploded, leaving a large hole in the wall, allowing light to enter the room.

Treble stood silhouetted in the doorway, his red eyes the only things visible as he tore off the burned juggernaut armour and threw an empty grenade launcher down. He and X stared each other down before rushing forward with their fist at the ready. Their fists collided but they fund not struggle against each other, X was pushed back as his hand was filled with pain. He looked go see Treble wearing his brass knuckles, only to have a punch thrown right in his face.

He cried out in pain before jumping backwards and pulling out a pistol. He began to rapidly fire at his son, on,t to have him dodge the bullets due to his speed and his own faulty aim. When Treble tried to kick the gun out of his hand, X pulled out his knife and swung it forward, grazing Trebles leg. Treble was put on the defensive as he used his brass knuckles to block the rapid attacks, his fathers speed rivalling his own. After punching the knife a few times to block the blows, he used both kunckles to trap the knife between them, then headbutting X right in the face before he could react.

X quickly let go of the knife and kicked Treble upside the jaw and spin kicked him into the ground face first. He stood on Trebles back with one foot and aimed the gun right at his head. Before he could pull the trigger Treble bit into his leg with his sharp teeth, causing him to stagger and fall on his ass and drop his weapons. Treble got up, grabbed the fallen knife and raised it high in the air, only for it to be shot out of his hand.

"Don't worry sir! I've got him!" A soldier yelled as he aimed his rifle as Treble, only to be kicked in the back of the head by Synthesia.

"Don't you dare lay a hand on my son!" She yelled as he grabbed the gun and smacked him in the head with it.

While Treble was distracted X kicked him in the shin, bringing him to his knees. He picked himself up before grabbing the pistol and firing it at his ex-wife, hitting her in the shoulder.

"MOM!!!" Treble yelled in worry and anger, while Vinyl tried to cry out but was unable to. Trebles eye only glowed brighter as he reached up, grabbed X by the neck and held him up in the air before grabbing one of his legs in the other hand and bringing his back down on his knee. X cried out in pain as Treble almost broke his back.

The others ran through the hole in the wall and Bass ran to Synthesia's side while Hack and the others rushed to their girlfriends. Treble didn't let them distract him, instead he grabbed X by the neck again and held him up to his face. He stared him deep in the eye before raising his fist and punching him in the side of the neck.

X grabbed Trebles wrist and bent it backwards, causing Treble to grunt in pain and stagger back, letting go of his enemy. X grabbed Treble by the arm and threw him over his shoulder right into the back of his throne. Treble grunted as his back hit the metal chair as he slid down to the ground on his hands and knees.

X walked up to his wounded son with ragged breath. "You know...through this fight...I have to say I'm proud of you...you're strong...a real fighter...it's a shame you chose the wrong side." He aimed the pistol as Trebles head and pulled the trigger. Treble had managed to duck his head before the pulled could hit, having it just graze the side of his face. He jumped to his feet and kicked the gun out of X's hand before raising his fists.

One after another Treble threw full force attacks at X's chest. X was about to fall to the ground when Treble grabbed his shoulder and punched him right in the middle of the chest, shattering his ribcage. X was let go and he fell face first towards the ground, unable to speak as he coughed up blood.

Treble stood over the fallen man, breathing heavil and holding his now broken wrist after dealing the final blow. They all heard the sirens finally ringing out as the police finally decided to do something.

Treble kicked the mans hat off to reveal his true face. His hair spiky and black, his skin a bluish green. He looked his father in the eye, ashamed of the man and what he was about to do. Treble picked up the knife and was ready to deliver the final blow that would end his fathers life...but he stopped. He dropped the knife as he felt the hand of the one he loved touch his shoulder. "Forget it Treble, the police are here, he's not worth it." She spoke softly as she hugged him from behind, kissing his neck lightly and sighing. "Thank you for saving me again..."

Treble sighed and turned to his lover. "Ok..." He hugged her and the two walked away from the fallen villain. Synthesia walked up to him while holding her shoulder, glaring at him.

"You know Neon, we could have raised them together, but you were so caught up in your own fantasy and dreams to see what was important. You treated me, our kids, and yourself like trash. And look where that got you, beaten down by the one you wanted to succeed you." She spat on his and kicked him in the face. "Rot in hell, Neon Lights."

With that, she walked away. She walked towards Treble and Vinyl where she pulled them into a loving, motherly embrace. Hack, Bass and Casino glared at the man before heading for the exit with everyone else.

Sunset and Treble where behind everyone, happy to be able to live without the threat of The Black Cats anymore. The couple smiled and shared a soft kiss on the lips. Synthesia called Sunset over to have a little walk and talk. Treble shrugged and watched his lover walk over to-

BANG!!!

Treble stood there, everything around him stops as he feels a sharp pain in his chest. His friends all turn around and gaze in horror as they look to him. Sunsets eyes go wide and she immediately rushes towards him. Vinyl and Octavia scream out in pain as they begin to rush to his side. All he hears is a ringing in his ears, all of his senses start to dwindle as he feels himself being lost in the intense pain.

He looks down at his chest and places a hand on it. His hand is then covered in blood. His eyes slowly fall closed as he falls to his knees. Neon is sitting up with the pistols barrel smoking from the gunshot, laughing madly before he himself is shot in the head by Hacks cane.

Sunset catches the bleeding Treble in her arms and keeps telling him that it will be ok. He smiled at her before whispering his last words of love before falling unconscious, a bullet through his chest...and a dagger through the heart of the one he loves.
