Origin of the Gunslinger (Chapter 9)
The Gunslinger stalked the streets one day and zeroed in one a criminal most famous for drugs, and lots of them. He cornered the man in an alley way and grabbed his chain whip.
"Like you're going to kill me you ass" he said
"Let's see how snarky you are with your voice box hanging out" the Gunslinger threatened
The man smirked and just stood there as the Gunslinger stepped forward
"They're coming for you, you son of a bitch. All these different bad guys want to be the person to kill you. I'm just the first of many to fall but I know that SOMEDAY you'll be dead and bleeding in a fucking sewer
The Gunslinger's face twisted in rage and he dropped the chain whip, pulling out a buff gun and shooting the man in the chest, leaving a huge hole. The man got to his knees and smiled
"The first…of…many…"
With that, he fell on his face. The Gunslinger bent over and picked up his chain whip and put that and the gun away. He looked up and climbed to the top of the building to watch the upcoming damage

He watched as the police took the body away. He smiled at seeing the reaction to the carnage he'd given. Then, he heard someone say
"Don't move. Turn around slowly"
He smiled slyly, put up his hands and slowly turned around and saw a boy in a black outfit and a girl in a purple one.
"So" the Gunslinger said "I finally get to meet you two"
"Um…who are you" the boy in black asked
"…Really? You don't know who I AM? I'm the Gunslinger, smart guy"
"Oooooh…never heard of you"
The Gunslinger face palmed himself. Why this guy was a super hero, he'll NEVER know
"So, YOU'RE the one who's been killing all these people" the girl in purple asked
"Guilty as charged" he said, taking a bow
"You're a nut job you know that"
"I'm going to call that a compliment and just forget it"
"Yea, do that" the boy in black said
"Well…not that this isn't 'fun' but…"
And with that the Gunslinger whipped out the chain and whipped away. He looked back after the two heroes and smiled smugly. He pulled out a large gun and pretended to shoot the two of them. He saw the girl in purple fighting back anger and the boy in black frowning at him. He twirled the gun and put it away. Then, he whipped out of sight.

The Gunslinger walked through the city one day as he walked from a fresh kill. He cleaned a dagger when he heard
"Still killing the wrong way I see"
His eyes widened in shock and he dropped the dagger. He turned and saw a boy about his age standing there. He had brown hair and golden-brown eyes. He also had a scar across his face. He had long range weapons on his body. He wore black clothes over his white skin. He wore a smug smile as the Gunslinger frowned angrily.
"Obsidian" he growled "What the hell are you doing here?"
"Someone needs to do this job right and lord knows that's not you"
"Oh like YOU can. I've seen old women do more damage than you"
"Oh is your granny in town?" he said sarcastically
The Gunslinger's fist clenched in anger. He hated Obsidian with a passion. There was only room for one vigilante in the town and people were divided about who they wanted. After he'd come to the town, he'd become the Gunslinger's rival and the two always tried to show up each other when they kill.
"Well I have things to do, other than talking to a wanna be version of me"
He picked up the dagger and put it away. Obsidian scowled at the Gunslinger as he walked away. He was tempted to use on of his weapons against him but he knew the Gunslinger would hear it a mile away. He also knew that the Gunslinger was considered a hero and he only killed criminals. He crossed his arms as he turned away and started walking. He knew he would run into him again very soon.

In an underground lab, an evil scientist had an evil plan against the Gunslinger. He had a corpse laying on a steel table with tubes flowing liquid into the body. Then, black hair began to slowly grow on his bald head. The teeth grew out and became sharp. His eyes shot open and became red. The eyes darted over to the scientist and he looked confused, yet grateful. The scientist smiled evilly
"Would you like to go see the Gunslinger?"
The man smiled and nodded slowly, his heart beginning to beat again
