Toying with Destiny
Summary: "Are you sure, you want to alter your son's destiny?" said, an-old-women. "Yes. It's for the best" Bob Parr said. "Very well, but Destiny does not like being toyed with" She warned. "I hope you're ready when the time comes"
I do not own The Incredibles.
Enjoy!
Bob and Helen Parr looked normal on the surface but they were anything but.
They were in fact, the superhero's 'Mr Incredible' and 'ElasterGirl'
After the lawsuit after lawsuit, they were forced to become normal people full time and settle down.
Their first daughter, Violet made them so proud even though she was so shy, she had the power to become invisible.
However, their first son, Dash...
He scared them.
They remembered the first they saw him playing with a terrifying dark creature in the backyard.
And that wasn't the only thing scary about him.
He picked up on thing's around him really quickly and learned the art of manipulation.
They took him to a numerous physiologist and each one of them looked like they had just met something terrifying after one session, they would have Dash banned from the building.
However, what made thing's worse was when they want on a 'family vacation' and saw a woman who had the power to tell the future.
She told them that they would all accomplish great thing's in the future however when it came to Dash...
She told them that he could cause untold death and destruction.
No matter how much they loved and cared for him, he would never be a true hero.
Dash was going to be the very scary skeleton in their closet.
They wouldn't have taken it seriously if not for the fact, they could actually see it.
Even Violet, their daughter, was scared to be alone with her little brother.
The message scared them and both of them were looking for a way, for their child not to become a bringer of destruction.
They would temper with destiny if it meant saving their son and the people who would be killed by him in the future.
However, the woman herself warned them, that it was a very dangerous thing trying to mess with destiny.
If they mess with it, Destiny may create an even bigger monster.
However, what both of them stuck with was the 'may'.
They did not want to put their own child in a cage for all his life, just to stop him from hurting people, it was better to do something now.
So the woman could do nothing but sigh and recommend them to an old woman who could change people's destiny's but they had to give her something that was just as valuable to them.
The price that she stated was that they would never entirely be able to live as a normal family.
Both of them were shocked by how small it was and easily agreed.
They told Dash that they were going somewhere that was going to be a big surprise.
The child was very good at reading a pure lie and would know something was up but a surprise gave them a reason for their sneakiness.
They blindfolded him and took him to the old women's place, where she had just finished setting up.
By the time they told him that he could take his blindfold off, he found himself restrained, he couldn't move.
His power was sealed.
And the slow realisation that he was in trouble and nobody was going to help him, was something that made them both look away.
Rob made the mistake of looking back and would always remember the look his son gave him before the old women's power hit him.
It was a look that said no matter what happens today, they would come to regret it.
The deal between destiny was struck and his destiny was changed.
When Dash woke up, it was like he had become a completely different person.
Even his ability had changed to being super-fast.
He was even a lot more childish.
It was honestly a bit scary.
Even Violet noticed the sudden shift in Dash, it was like the person in her brother's body wasn't her brother.
And although he was twisted before, at least she could have an intelligent conversation with him before and his ability to see through people was extremely useful to have.
He could tell who her friend was and who to avoid.
Not many people could read people like Dash could.
Dash ability would have been amazing to have when his father went to find a Job that wasn't run by complete douche bag's.
However, now he was...
She couldn't even describe it.
However, her parents told her that it was a lot better than Dash was this way.
Violet as only being 5 at the time and at that age, thoughts of rebellion against her parents scared her.
So, she accepted the new Dash.
At least, he didn't freak her out every time he appeared or made her question what he was thinking.
However, the speed thing got annoying fast and his ability to comprehend was shot.
This was the Dash she was going to have to live with.
And as the years flow by, Violet started to forget how her brother original was, due to how young she had been at the time.
The family was cursed, they could never stay in one place for very long when they tried to be normal and it cost the government millions to keep their identity a secret.
The price that they thought was nothing, had turned into something huge.
Bob was like a man possessed, he couldn't stop himself from trying to be a hero and trying to help people.
It weighed down on his marriage and the whole family.
However, thing's started looking better when he got 'promoted' in his latest job and started to bring home a bigger amount of cash, they got a new car and he could spend time with his family.
If the original Dash had been present, he would have called his dad's office, to see if the promotion was legit as soon as the new stuff started happening.
Who would have thought, it would end with a good chunk of the city being destroyed and Superhero's starting to come back again?
They had a sweet new house since their old one was destroyed and their dad was at home, while their mother worked as a superhero.
Thing's weren't going well with Violet and Jack Jack with dad in charge, the only one who seemed to not give him serious emotional strain was Dash.
Now if only Dash could stop hearing voices.
"This guy has absolutely no idea what he's doing."
"Who would have thought your sister was such a brat?"
"The woman of the house leaves and she becomes like that. That's insulting"
"Poor man. He needs a good rest. Look at those bags under his eyes."
"Don't pity the guy, he's the one who turned our Master into this. He was so amazing before."
"Well, who's laughing now? We used to be one and now we are many."
"Shut up," Dash said under his breath, he was going crazy.
"Huh?" His father said, "Did you say something?"
They were in the middle of dinner.
"Urm," Dash said, thinking fast, "I said, I'm not that hungry and I'm really tired."
"What a lame excuse. The old you would have thought of something better" Said one voice.
Shut up Dash thought, the voice's quietened down.
"Dash?" Violet said he had been staring into space with glazed eyes.
"O-Oh, I'm really sleepy," Dash said, seeing the concern in the room as he ran to the sweet room that was his own.
"Great, even Dash is avoiding me, now." His father said.
#Inside his room#
"Seriously you people need to get out of my head!" Dash said he didn't want to worry his father more by asking the man to take him to a physiologist.
His statement was met with a long pause.
"Do you really want us to leave?" They all said, at once.
"Yes," Dash said and then what happened next was shocking.
A thick smoke came out of his forehead and began to fill the room, what Dash saw next was terrifying. Eye ball's poking out of the smoke, but for some reason, he wasn't scared.
And that scared him even more.
"We meet again, Master. Your parent's decision has made us stronger, smarter."
"W-Who are you and how did you get into my head" Dash shrieked.
"Master, we were always in your head," Said, the voices. "We were forced into hibernation and were woken up by the strong feeling of resentment, however, it's nothing compared to yours but it did the trick."
"Strong resentment?" Dash said, suddenly he was reminded of Syndrome, he had only met the guy briefly but he would never forget the hatred in his eyes.
The guy went so far as to try and kidnap his baby brother just to get back at his dad.
And what did they mean that he had resentment in him?
He didn't personally hate anybody.
"That's blasted, old women. Look what she did to our brilliant Master" The voices were split once again.
"Master just say the word and we will drag her soul from the afterlife and torture her eternally"
"What!? No!" Dash said, what the hell!? Nobody was hurting anybody here!
"Then would you like your memories back?" One voice said.
"Huh?" Dash said.
"The process took away what made you, you, however, we are part of you and we managed to secure a lot. Getting it back, will make you understand who and what we are. If you wish it, we would leave permanently and never come back" Said, another voice.
The voice know this Dash well and know he would do whatever it took, especially if it was easy to get rid of them, for good.
"You'll leave if I see it?" Dash said.
"Yes," They all said.
"Okay," Dash said it was an easy thing to do. "Show me"
He was suddenly penetrated in the head by the fog.
He didn't even have time to be surprised when his consciousness was teleported into the first memory the black fog was willing to show him from years ago.
He suddenly found himself in their first house.
"It's time for food," Said, the voice of a much younger version of his father, he did not have that middle-aged gut, yet.
In front of him was, two really young kid's.
A five-year-old Violet and a Two-year-old Dash, in PJ's.
However, Dash, eyes naturally want to the little him whose eyes were calculating.
"But Dad, the new episode of So Super, is about to be on," Violet said.
"Well, you can always watch it another time" Said, their father.
"How about we make a deal daddy," Said, the little boy who had Dash eyes wide with shock.
The little boy got up and said. "How about you bump both of our bedtimes up and in exchange, I won't release the 'calendar'?" he pulled out a picture of his daddy in a sexy speedo.
He had found the special calendar, that he had given to his wife.
His daddy want pale.
"What, is that?" Violet said, trying to see.
"IT'S NOTHING!' His dad said, taking it and destroying it.
"I've got more pictures where that came from Daddy" The little boy said. "So, what's it going to be?"
"Who the hell is that!?" Dash said, he was creepy for somebody who looked that young!
"That's you Master" Said the voice. "And that's also not you"
"Master was so wonderful before"
"Blackmailing your own father. Amazing"
"Wait. I never did that!" Dash said.
Then the scene changed.
A younger him was pushed down by an older kid.
"Hahaha" The kid started laughing, only for Dash to turn around and his expression quickly changed to one of horror.
The kid started screaming as something pulled him on his leg and saw two tiny arms in black fog with an eyeball looking at him.
The scene was straight out of a horror movie.
His mother quickly grabbed him and the monster vanished, everybody looked their way to see a little boy shaking in fear.
Her mother quickly escaped with him.
"If only she didn't come. We would have devoured that brat. Master" Said, a voice.
Then more memories continued to fly by.
"Wait, this can't all be real!" Dash said, it didn't make sense, how could this person be him!?
In the memories shown to him, he never once used his super speed.
"We will show like to show you the memory of the day we were sealed"
"We should have killed that women, if we know what was going to happen"
"We shouldn't have killed everybody there."
"Roll the clip!"
Dash saw the day that it all changed.
He saw how his parents tricked him to somewhere isolated and chained him up.
He could feel the raw emotions of betrayal as his parents looked away.
"What are you doing to him!" Dash said, running forward but he slipped right through the old lady who was approaching the kid who was struggling.
"It's a memory" Said, the voices.
Then the power struck the little boy right in the forehead, the screams were horrific and would haunt anybody in their nightmares, thankfully the boy passed out soon after.
The next memory was shown, it was faint but Dash could clearly see a child who acted just like him at that age.
His sister looking weirded out.
"Mom. This is weird. What's wrong with Dash?" She said.
"There is nothing wrong with him, we just need to get used to him" Said, his mother. "This new change is for his future. Eventually, you will come to live with him"
Dash felt sick, blurry years flow by and the memories he did remember appeared.
The super speed had manifested and the dark creature never showed up once.
It looked like somebody had killed the real Dash and was using his body.
He looked at his hand.
Was he really Dash?
"W-What am I?" He said, for the first time, he felt like he dirty.
He didn't expect to be answered.
All the voices got together and said.
"You are Dash and yet you so much more. Your Jailers have had you for too long, Master. Will you step out of your cage?"
And scene!
