This is the story of James, the father of Blake (Shrunk with your Girlfriend/GTS main character)

CHAPTER 3: THE END OF ALL JAMES' HOPES...

After the incident of their parents' death, there elapsed a year... Steven was still in grief and rage for the one who killed them, James felt angry too but he tried to understand what Bruce told him.

One day, after school, Steven arrived with James and said

-"I got it!! The damned who killed mom and dad was a second lieutenant who betrayed dad!! His name is Jack Santos..."- James only nodded and reflectioned about Bruce's last words.

-"Let's get him and make that monster pay for his sins!!"- Steven said, and James answered

-"Maybe we shouldn't...I mean...I'm not a coward, you know it...but if we better try to forget this and continue our lives?...We can't live in past all the time...we'll have to manage to live with this at some point"-

Steven looked at him with some anger, maybe he was thinking that beause they weren't his true parents James wasn't that angry. James felt this and added

-"I'm sad about them too, but it's just that..."- Steven was leaving and said angerly

-"Well are you coming or not?"- James sighed and went following Steven, he understood that Steven was in pain but trying to avenge Bruce maybe would bring them out more problems...

They arrived to a low latino neighborhood, a strange place lo live for a militar officer, then they saw many latin guys but Steven looked directly to one. James got that he was the one...

Steven and James approached to him and he didn't even run away, he knew why would they come... and decided to confront it. Steven started asking very angry

-"So...you liked to kill my family, huh?"- Jack just laughed and said

-"Business are business...then, if you want to avenge your father, I'm in here. C'mon. I know that you fight since your childhood"- Steven didn't doubt about it in any moment, he immediately punched him in the face, James didn't intervene because he and Steven both preferred to fight one vs one.

But Jack was a better fighter they thought (By the way, Jack's physical appearance was: Short straight black hair, rude eyes, thin but strong and tall, latin. Scars in his arms, shoulders, on his left cheek, and one on his eyelid.

He had some tattoos also. He was like 38 years old). The fight between Steven and Jack was very fierce, and they were practically at the same level. After 20 minutes Jack said

"Uh...I know why you were unbeatable in school...but you're just a crybaby for me!!"- And Jack started to fight seriously, Steven wasn't able to stand up a chance this time...He was losing and Jack showed to be faster and stronger than they thought, after all, he defeated Bruce, who was a really though one...

After some fists and kicks flying in between they both, Jack hit Steven in stomach with his knee and then punched him several times, throwing him to the ground... Steven hadn't such a hard fight. Before he could get up, Jack kicked him and punched his face, then a very strong fist hit him in face and a kick in stomach, James decided to intervene

-"Let my brother go...This will be between you...and ME..."- Steven said

-"...I have to do this..."-

-"Let me take this one, bro...I'll do it"- James smiled to him and then turned to Jack

-"Heh...YOU called him BROTHER?! HAH!!"- Jack laughed about it and James answered .

-"Maybe I was adopted but they're the ones who raised me and taught me to live...and if you have a problem with that let's fight"-

-"Hehehe, I will anyways...but you're an idiot calling him 'brother'...You don't even know where's your family, James..."-

-"How the hell do you know my name!!"- James was now disconcerted, he never met him, so there was no way he knew his name, and he wasn't a Bruce's friend...

-"I know a lot more things about you James...things that you don't even imagine"-

James thought...and despite his memories were vague, now it seemed that he was the one who killed his parents many years ago...a time which he doesn't remember.

-"So...you killed my parents...then...you killed my new family..."- Jack laughed and James didn't hesitate and the fight started, despite the battle with Steven, Jack was not tired.

The punches and kicks flew quickly, James was a better fighter than Steven, since he grew up by doing this, now it was more appreciable to notice his skills, James was able to stand up the fight against him...

And could hit him many times, the combat lasted about 15 minutes and then Jack said

-"I know you'd be this strong...You're different James...You aren't like those American pigs...like that Bruce or that blond crybaby who you dare to call brother..."-

-"Shut up!!"- James answered angerly

-"Heh...you're blind for now, James, but you'll understand it"- Then they fought again more fiercely than before. They both were almost at the same level, even when Jack was fighting with his full strength and skills.

After almost half of an hour of fierce battling...James could do a decisive hit punching him in stomach and hitting him furiously in the face, finally with a kick he made Jack fall and hurl against a wall...

-"Dammit...maybe I was wrong...maybe you'll never understand...You've become like them James...I thought you'd be different, in fact you are, but you don't want to see your reality"-

-"Maybe you're right, but even if I'm a latin raised by americans I don't care, those were my family and no one else!!"- James answered and Steven thought all it was over, James would finish him off...but he didn't think so

"Now leave...go away...and never return...I don't want to see you ever again or I won't spare your life next time..."-

Steven opened wide his eyes, James was letting him to go!! He wasn't happy with that and said furiously

-"I see James...You don't care them since we're not your true family, aren't we?"-

-"What?"- James asked surprised by this question and before he could answer Steven hit Jack furiously and then he stopped, and just said some pain sounds and fell down backward...

Jack stabbed him with a knife, and it seemed to be the same which he used to stab Bruce. James now felt how something inside him crashed into thousands of pieces...

James became furious and then he got off the knife from him and threw it away, then he hit him furiously many times, letting him pretty bad, and despite Jack tried to defend himself, he was too damaged and tired to. James was about finishing him off, as Steven thought he should have done before

-"You...you killed...my parents...my family...Steven..."- Then he hit him again sending him to the street and then he said

-"You are a monster who does not deserve to live"-

-"You...you are wrong about one thing...I didn't kill your parents...your original parents"- James was disconcerted but furious and then he said

-"Then, what the hell did you do to them?"- Jack laughed as crazy and said

-"Don't you notice something?"- James remained silent, and then Jack continued

-"Latin...fighter...different to everyone else...You're like me"- James now seemed to have gotten the point and Jack concluded

-"I'm your father, James..."- James felt strange for a moment, he wanted to know what happened to his parents some day, but now, knowing that his father was a damned monster... and he answered

-"...Maybe...maybe we both are father and son...But I never will be like you!!"-

And before he did anything else, a shot sounded and Jack fell...dead... then he looked around but there was no one...someone killed Jack by shooting at him but he didn't show himself, James thought 'well...it's over...I found my past...by losing what mattered for me' Then he went with Steven, and he said

-"cough...James...ugh...you...you were right...we should have never come here...cough...now...I get it...I get why you spared Jack's life...I was a foolish...I'm sorry for blaming you and saying that you didn't care about mom and dad..."-

Then he closed his eyes, which would never open again. James said after he passed out

-"Goodbye bro, rest in peace..."- As he left, walking in streets, beginning again...remaining as the beginning, maybe worse...after losing everything what he cared about and loved...now he was alone...without anything but himself...knowing even his horrible origins...it was truly, the end of all hope for him...
