I'd like to state that I have played all 3 Metal Gear games, so if any of the facts are slightly off, it's because I made them that way for the sake of the story, I know what happened and all that.
Woo, two chapters in one night, I'm doing pretty good for coming out of a VERY VERY long slump.
It's about 22:02 at the time of writing, gonna be up all night writing and such.
This is going to be a long fic and one hell of a night.

Hal woke in the morning, warm and content. He reached an arm out towards where David was only to find it empty and cooling. Opening his eyes, he sighed, only to be surprised by the delicious smell of breakfast in the air.
With a soft groan, he sat up and slid from the warm bed, shivering slightly when the cool air hit his bare skin. He grabbed David's bathrobe that the man rarely ever wore and slid it on before heading downstairs towards the kitchen.

"What the hell are you doing here?" David growled when he entered the kitchen to find a very familiar face leaning casually against the island counter.
The man just smirked and put his cigar out in one of the many ashtrays Hal had put around in a vain attempt to stop having David put them out on the tables or anywhere else. "Now, is that anyway to greet your father?"
"You're not my father. Liquid told me everything, I'm your clone, the perfect solider," David said spitefully and pulled out his Solcom from his waistband. Just as he got it aimed on John, he had a Patriot aimed on him.
At that time, Hal entered the kitchen and stopped dead. His best friend and love of his life recently turned lover was locked in a dead draw with a man who looked identical to said man only several years his senior and an eye patch.
John rolled his eye as he and David circled each other. "You are too my damn son! You think a clone could be as good as you are? Only a flesh and blood son could inherit the right genes and personality traits to surpass the father. The only surviving clones were Liquid and Solidus, now they're dead."
"If you're really my father, then who is my mother?" David growled suspiciously, glaring daggers at his "father".
"I'll tell you when you put the damn gun down, I'm too old for this," John growled, just as deep and gruffly as David. He smirked when David lowered his gun, lowering his as well. "You, my son, are the result of a very very drunken night with Para-Medic, I have no idea what her name was, I really don't care, I only stayed around until you were born, then I took you home and me and Adam took care of you until I ended up in a coma."
"Who the hell is Adam?" David growled, still wary.
"It's Adamska, boy," a very familiar voice said, followed by the sound of spurs against hardwood. "And before you ask, I am your step-father, if I wasn't, you wouldn't be alive."
David's eyes were wide, almost mechanically he walked over to a chair at the table and sat down. "I'm related to Revolver Ocelot," he murmured quietly, stunned.
"He raised you for the first six years of your life before the government got a hold of you while I was in a coma," John said, lighting a new cigar only to have Adam pluck it from his lips and staunch it out on the floor with the heel of his boot. "Come on, it's only my first!"
Adam cocked a brow, look pointedly at John, then at the still smoking cigar stubbed, and finally back at John who laughed hesitantly before reaching into his coat and handling over his cigar case. He sighed deeply when Adam looked at him pointedly again, he pulled the cigar out from his gun holster.
Unable to hold it back, Hal sneezed, snapping everyone's attention on him. "Um, hi?" He said meekly, avoiding all eye contact.
"You're that mangy little coward of a scientist who created the first Metal Gear," Adam growled in slight disbelief. "I thought you died when Shadow Moses was bombed."
"I got him out," David growled, taking a protective stance just in front of Hal. "And he's not a coward, he has more guts than you."
John glared at both Adam and David. "Adam, that's no way to talk about your step-son's boyfriend and David, that's no way to talk to your step-father. I don't care what happened between you two while I was underground so to speak, but deal with it and move on. There are bigger things going down right now than a petty step-son step-father feud."
Both David and Adam were thrown off by the commanding tone in John's words. David was amazed by his father's ability to take command of any situation, even an argument between himself and Adam.
"Russia has gotten their hands on the plans for Metal Gear, and I mean Russia, not just a little extremist group either," when John said this, he looked pointedly at Adam who rolled his eyes. "This all goes back to what happened over forty years ago with the Philosopher's Legacy. China managed to procure the real Legacy on one of it's over-seas trips. They're going to use it against the Russia who will then use their new Metal Gear against not only America, but China as well. Creating the next World War. We need your help to stop this."
David sighed and looked over to see Hal with his head hung in shame, blaming himself for everything. "It's not your fault, you had no idea that this was going to happen," he murmured to the scientist reassuringly, a loving hand on the other man's scrawny shoulder.
"He's right kid," John said, lighting a cigar he had pulled out of nowhere, dodging Adam when the gunslinger had tried to grab it. "There's no way you could have known this was going to happen. So stop beating yourself up over it. If you're looking for redemption, join us, this is the last Metal Gear in production, we've destroyed all the other schematics for it, newest models, etcetera."
Hal looked at David longingly, knowing that the man was reluctant to accept his father's proposal.
"Fine, I'll do it," David said firmly, his heart being torn to shreds by the unshed tears of self-hatred glistening in Hal's eyes. "But don't expect me to join you after this is done. Once the last Metal Gear is finished, Hal and I are coming back here and staying."
John nodded, dodging another attempt at his cigar by Adam. "Come on! This is only my second one!"
"Second one in perhaps an hour," Adam growled and sighed, he supposed he could let this one slip.

"I'm pretty sure that I really don't want to know this, but, how did you two end up getting married?" David asked in a pained voice, knowing that his curiosity would most likely leave him very scarred.
John just smirked, making himself comfortable on the couch, and began to tell the story.
John sat on the branch at the top of the tree, over looking where The Boss's body had lain not moments ago before being removed. Tears stained his face as he took a long drag on his cigar, slowly letting the smoke curl over his lips and float away. He had refused to go with EVA, The Boss had been his mentor, his mother, he had shared a deep bond with her that he had never shared with anyone else, he couldn't just leave her here alone.
He closed his eyes and let his head fall back against the tree, sighing softly as more tears fell. "If you're going to kill me, do it now, I'm not going to fight you again," he murmured softly when he felt a human presence climb onto the branch beside him.
"You know, she's going to go down in history as a traitor to her country. But she sacrificed everything for it. Her real story is going to live in your heart, and the hearts of all those who fought beside her, myself included," Ocelot said quietly, making himself comfortable next to John. "I really have no intention of killing you, I made a promise that I intend to keep."
John cracked his eye open to look at the blonde Major only to be completely stunned. The one ray of sun that broke the thick canopy shined directly on Ocelot, causing the man to glow and making him realize that Major Ocelot, no, Adamska was indeed one of the most beautiful creatures he had ever seen. Slowly, he reached out, and gently ran the tips of his fingers along Adam's defined jaw line, brushing his thumb across those soft lips.
Slowly, Adam began to lean forward until his lips hovered just above John's. His eyes closed as John leaned forward, their lips pressing together in a slow, soft kiss. A moan slipped from his lips as the kiss began to deepen. His moan seemed to encourage John, the man slipped his tongue into his mouth, another moan slipping forth.
The branch they were on was large enough for John to sprawl out on, so he had no problem dragging Adam into his lap, thrusting up against the blonde's crotch, groaning at the friction it caused on his already throbbing cock, it had been way too long since he had last done anything like this.
"John," Adam moaned as the agent attacked his neck, leaving a trail of messy red love bites from his jaw line down to his collar. He cried out softly as a hand found it's way between his legs.
"Okay, that's enough, I don't need to know anymore," David said quickly, not wanting to hear the rest of the story, he did not need to know about his father and Ocelot having sex.
John smirked and propped his boots up on the coffee table, much to Hal's dismay. "Fine, I'll skip over that part, but shut up and let me finish the story."
"Will you marry me?" John asked, stopping Adam mid-rant.
"You cheat on me with a woman who's name you don't even know, while we are together, and you expect me to marry you?" Adam asked in disbelief, the look on his face clearing stating "You really are insane".
"Well, I don't expect you to, but I want you to," John said, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "I love you more than anything, of course I want you to marry me."
Adam was well and truly stunned. Staring at John, the look of disbelief on his face still plain, he nodded slowly, wondering how in the hell he managed to fall in love with someone so reckless, so careless, so completely insane, and yet, so perfect.
John literally swept Adam off his feet in a passionate kiss. "By the way, Para-Medic is pregnant," he added quickly before cutting off Adam's reply with another passionate kiss.
"And here I thought my relationship was strange," David said off handedly, surprised by how alike he and his father were.
