Introduction

A.N.: Ok. This story is inspired by the news that Grant Gustin (The actor who played Sebastian Smythe) got the role of Barry Allen, better known as The Flash in CW's TV show "Arrow". My mind just started spinning. So what if Sebastian, Hunter and Kurt are really superheroes? Why will Hunter and Kurt be in here? Well, I must admit that I'm a great fan to Kuntbastian bromance. Please note that there is a "B" in front of "romance". It will be a Kurtbastian story though, because it is currently my favourite couple besides Wert. The title is not yet confirmed and may change. One more thing, Kurt, Sebastian are in the same age this story while Hunter is one year older than the other two. And the old saying always rule: Don't like, don't read. So here we go.

Disclaimer: I own nothing other than the plot, maybe the OCs as well.


Night, this word has caused countless imagination for thousands of years. The blackness of night is the perfect camouflage. It is the perfect time for most of the crimes happened.

Eight years ago, a couple was killed on their way home from their family dinner. Their only son, only nine years old, was taken away and was thrown into a world of fear.

Eight years ago, a boy at the age of eight was dragged into a living nightmare when he and his dad were coming back from his lacrosse lesson. The father was killed on instant as the son was dragged away.

Eight years ago, another boy at the age of eight was kidnapped on his way home from school. His adopted parents and elder brother tried their best to find him but all in vain.

Eight years ago, the three kids were thrown into a room, not actually room room, it was a metal cell with just a small window with strengthened glass, with another group of kids, under the control of a group of crazy scientists aiming to build a troop of perfect soldiers. They were subjected to inhuman chemical, drug, radiation and biological tests. Death was no stranger here. Besides the deaths caused by the tests, bullying also contributed to the majorities of deaths of the kids here. Even in this world of total darkness and terror, bullying still existed.


Eight years later, on a moonless and cloudy night, one of the windows on the 20th floor started to melt under an unknown force. After a while, a hole large enough for two men to get through was formed. A minute later, a dark figure dashed through the window and he was on the floor the next second. He signalled at the room he just escaped and another dark figure, a bit shorter than the first figure peeped out of the gap. He looked around into the complete darkness and looked a bit worried and scared.

"Ba-" He began but was cut off when a larger hand clapped over his mouth.

"Keep quiet! You want to get caught and be executed?!" A third figure, and the second tallest among the three whispered.

"I just want to tell Bas to catch me. I don't want to die before I even freed myself!" The shortest figure whispered back and the second tallest figure rolled his eyes.

"Don't be silly. He will get you even without your consent. Besides," The figure whispered as he grabbed hold on the smaller figure. "Why will you fall to your death when I'm getting you?"

Then, before the small figure could reply, the figure jumped, taking the small figure with him. The figure yelped but no sound was heard ad the larger hand was still clapping on his mouth. The two free fell for a few seconds before the slowed down dramatically about two metres above the ground and landed safely. The tallest figure came forward to check on them as the shortest figure kept on glaring at the second tallest figure.

"Don't give me that look." The figure said but was a bit scared. Well, who can stand a chance when you were facing one of the most intense bitch-glares in the world? The tallest figure just shook his head.

"Come on, you guys got the money?" He asked.

The other two figures nodded.

"Kurt is a genius!" The second tallest figure beamed at the shortest figure who blushed.

"Thanks, Hunt." He replied and smiled.

"Alright, let's go." The tallest figure said.

The three got hold of each other and carefully walked. There were tens of thousands of mines and other weapons sensitive to pressure, human's infrared radiation and the electrical signals from heart beats and muscle contractions in this regions. They called this area "The Gate to Hell". Normally they would have been dead the moment they stepped onto the ground. But they were no ordinary humans. After all those years of tests, their genetic materials had changed so much that it had a significant impact on them. They all had superhuman endurance, strength and metabolic rate. Their senses were heightened and gained the ability to sense the danger coming. That's the common special ability for the three of them. Each of them had their own different specialities.

The tallest figure, Sebastian Smythe, had super speed, his speed limit can reach 10 times faster than the speed of light, he could change the structure of the molecules of his body (Self-molecular control) so he can phase through different objects. He could generate electricity, flash bomb, gales, even tornadoes and cyclones. He also had a very accurate aiming ability.

The second tallest figure, Hunter Clarington, controlled electricity, magnetism, force and light with his mind. He could even change the direction of the gravity so that explained the reason why he and Kurt decelerate in the middle of their fall, and why they didn't trigger the mines to go off: Hunter had casted a shield over the three of them which absorbed all the electric currents, radiation and magnetism from their bodies. He also had the ability to extract those energies from the surrounding environment.

The shortest one, Kurt Hummel, controlled fire and ice. He had the ability to communicate with animals and mimicked their behaviour. He could also read a person's mind with eye-contact. He was also a genius plus an inventor.

They had just leave the minefield as they heard a scream coming from the building, the next moment, there was a loud boom and a fire ball erupted from another room. An explosion occurred, shattering countless windows. The three looked at each other.

"What happened?" Kurt asked.

"I don't know." Sebastian replied.

"Run!" Hunter said and the trio broke into a run. They ran and ran, and crossed a river about 20 metres wide. As they crossed the river, their heightened hearing captured the firing shot of a gun, a few screams and soon another larger explosion occurred and it triggered the minefield to explode as well. The whole area was engulfed in a sea of flames and the building was soon burnt to the ground in a few minutes. The cause of the explosion was due to a kid in another cell gone crazy and started to throw fireballs in all directions. One of them hit the town gas supply and initiated the first explosion. Seeing the opportunity to free, the kids started a riot and the security guards tried to stop them. One of them fired a gun and the sparks ignited the town gas again and triggered the second explosion. Some of them managed to escape but most of them, including those crazy scientists were trapped inside and killed as the building succumbed to the fire.


But this was not what the trio cared about right now. They just kept on running until they crossed a hilly region and saw the lights of the nearest city, Columbus. For the first time ever, the trio smiled. They were now free. Their nightmares finally ended. And they were happy. The wind of the night was blowing and they were now riding on the breeze, to freedom.

"We made it." Sebastian said as the three stood on the hill and looked over to the bright light emitting from the city. For years, they had been called by numbers rather than names. Luckily, they still remembered their name and didn't lose their self-consciousness.

"So what are we going to do now?" Kurt panted from the run.

"I don't know." Sebastian said and the other two looked at him.

"You don't know?" Kurt asked in disbelief.

"No idea." Sebastian admitted. "I know that my mom and older sister are still out there, and alive. But…"

Sebastian trailed off as he gazed over the glittering city shinning in the night. Kurt came forward and took Sebastian's hand. He knew what the tallest boy was thinking. They had shared something about their own families when they were locked back in the cell.

"Hey, I know what you're thinking. My family is out there too. But we can't go back to them now. Hunter?" Kurt gently said and turned to look at him, but the said teen was just gazing over the brightly illuminated city. His eyes were dull and lonely, with a thick sense of sadness. Kurt and Sebastian then remembered that Hunter lost both of his parents before he was dragged into this nightmare. He witnessed his parents' deaths right in front of his eyes. While Sebastian and Kurt still had their families and possibly still had them to turn their feelings to, for Hunter, there was none. Sebastian and Kurt came forward and gently, they pulled the oldest boy into their arms.

"Hey, you know, you still have us, right?" Kurt said.

"Yeah. Just talk to us whenever you want. We will always be there. For you." Sebastian said.

Hunter looked at them, their eyes had nothing else but sincerity and care. He smiled and hugged them back.

"Thanks, guys." He said. "It's just I think I still have my apartment and maybe we can stay there."

"Good. Come on, let's go. It's almost six. We can stop by and get some breakfast. None of us have eaten by the way." Sebastian said and they headed to the city until they were bathed in the lights of the street lamps and they could see the eastern sky was starting to brighten, showing that a new day had begun.

TBC…?


A.N.: The test thing is inspired by 'V for Vendetta'. Poor Hunter, poor Sebastian and poor Kurt. :'(

Reviews are loved.

P.S.: And uhm… Should I continue? Maybe I should just delete it because it sucks so much. This is my first time to write something related to superheroes. :S
