(Note: I am writing in complete disregard of what has happened as of the season finale of season three. This will also prevent any spoilers from being revealed. Basically I'm changing what happened when Sylar found his real father, and thus changing what happened in Sylar's life afterwards. That episode is also where I derived the title from. Enjoy!)
Sylar drove into the dirt path leading to a shabby old trailer with one thing on his mind: vengeance. He opened the front door and was greeted by terrible wallpaper, a cracked ceiling, and an inordinate amount of dead stuffed animals. He remembered the sign outside Samson Gray's previous home reading that he was a taxidermist. That would explain the animals.
He made his way to a glass door in the back. A man sat at a desk working intently on some unseen project. Sylar knocked on the glass. "It's open," the man at the desk coughed. When he opened the door, Sylar was hit with a cloud of cigarette smoke. "Almost got the order ready. You have a lot of pickups today?"
"I'm not here for a pickup." Sylar responded.
"No?"
He shook his head. "It's me. Gabriel. Your son."
His father put down his tools. "Is that so?"
Sylar moved towards him. "That is so."
"What brings you all the way out here?"
"I had some questions about myself – who I am, where I came from. But then I remembered. You abandoned me. You killed my mother."
"So?" his father retorted. "What now?"
"Now?" Sylar smirked. "I kill you."
Samson Gray turned in his seat to face Sylar. "Go right ahead." He coughed, and Sylar saw the tube from the oxygen tank in his nose. Samson stood up. "You kill me, or the cancer does. Either way, I die." He paused, pulling a pack of smokes from his pocket. "I haven't got all day." He stuck a smoke in his mouth and lit it up.
(So this is a part of the season three episode "Shades of Gray" where Sylar meets his real father. So far everything has been written as it was in the episode. Things may change next chapter so stay tuned.)
