Our story begins in a town of planet Earth, which used to be a quiet place, until recently, when Taopai arrived and forced the residents to become his slaves. Right now, he's in the most luxurious room of the town's hotel, where he stays for free of course, packing his things. The door knocks. Tao opens and a woman enters. She's a local resident and Tao's sweetheart. From the first moment she laid eyes on him, she was attracted by his badassery. Not that Tao couldn't have just raped her, like he usually does. But, just that once, he decided to play his cards differently, for that woman's genuine interest satisfied his vanity.
The woman notices Tao's suitcase.
-''Huh? What's wrong honey?'' she curiously asks.
-''Are you fucking blind?'' the assassin yells. ''I'm bored of this quiet place. I'm outta here''.
-''But...but what about us?'' she asks in shock and, holding her belly, she continues: ''What about our child?''
-''I told you i don't want any children'' Tao abruptly answers. ''Get rid of it''.
-''But, you said you love me'' she protests.
-''Oh, come on'' Tao insensitively says. ''When a man wants to get laid, he can say anything''.
-''How can you be so cynical?'' the woman asks in tears.
-''Hello? I'm the world's greatest assassin. How can i NOT be cynical? Har, har'' the murderer laughs.
The crying woman starts hitting him.
-''You asshole, sucker, motherfucker...'' she screams.
Tao presses her against the wall, holding her from the neck.
-''Enough of your silly games'' he calmly says. ''Now, to make sure you won't give birth to that bastard...''
He starts hitting her at stomach. Finally, he lets go of her neck and she falls on the floor, coughing blood. Tao takes his suitcase and walks away.
-''See ya'' he mocks.
The baby miraculously survived though. Only, because of his father's ''strokes'', it was born with a chromosomal abnormality, which resulted in it having three eyes. And that baby's name was Tenshinhan!
Many years later...
The teen Tien violently opens and closes the door as he enters the house. He has some bruises. However, the kids he got in a fight with are now in a much worse condition. It took many of them just to give Tien a few bruises. Maybe his unusual strength is also a result of his chromosomal abnormality or it is because he's Tao's son or both.
-''What's wrong Tien?'' his freaked out mother asks. ''Did you get in a fight at school again?''
-''LEAVE ME ALONE'' the boy screams.
Tien goes to his room slamming the door behind him. His classmates often mock him for looking like a monster, that's why he gets into so many fights. Later, his mom has entered his room trying to calm him down.
-''Mom, why has dad never returned?'' he asks while his mother is stroking him.
-''Don't start again Tien'' she sighs. ''Your father is rotten to the core and you know it''.
Tien's mother has told him everything about how he was born and how his father is responsible for his monstrous face. Tien knows the story since he was very little. Maybe it was a mistake of his mom having told him, but she's so mad about the past that she couldn't keep it a secret. The only thing she hasn't revealed to Tien is his father's identity.
That night, Tien makes a decision. He's been thinking of it for a long time. He can't stay in this miserable town anymore. It's time to begin a journey. A journey to find his father, but, most importantly, to find his own self. He leaves a note and, without waking his mom, abandons his house forever.
