Author's note: You…you really care (sob) you actually love me (sob). You don't know how much this means to me. I thank you all very dearly for the reviews and Happy Birthdays. This chapter and the next are what I visualised when the idea for this came into my head so this is pretty important to the story. This would be longer but I'm slightly unsure about the ending now. Good always triumphs over evil but this IS a twisted universe. Anyhoo, this is it. As a sign of my maturity I have…wait for it…raised the rating! I'm joking, I just felt like swearing. So enjoy the chapter and REVIEW MY PEOPLE!

Sue started to sprint after her brother when the gap between them began to lengthen. Sue quickly closed the gap and overtook her brother. She stopped running right in front of him, forcing Johnny to come to a stop.

"What?" he asked impatiently.

"Why are you doing this?"

"I'm doing this because I don't want anything to happen to you Suzie. You'll thank me when you're a rich happy widow."

"Widow! How am I supposed to be happy if you're in jail?" Johnny sighed.

"I don't know. You'll get over it just the way you're gonna get over Victor."

"So what are you gonna do? Can you remember what happened the last time you tried to intimidate Victor and every other boyfriend I've had?"

Johnny cringed and ignored Sue's comment.

Heh heh.

What's so funny?

I'm just remembering the time Johnny tried to intimidate me. It was the first time we met.

FLASHBACK

"Sue what are you doing?" Johnny asked his sister impatiently.

"I need to be ready for Reed," she said as she reapplied her lip-gloss. The Storm family were having a barbeque to celebrate Sue's birthday and Sue had invited her new boyfriend, Ben and Alison.

"Everyone is downstairs waiting for you. I hate to admit it but it'd kinda be a lame party if you spend the whole evening locked up in your room," He added.

"I know but Reed will be here soon and I need to look my best," Sue said distractedly as she fixed her hair in the large mirror on the wall.

DING DONG

Sue jumped and ran over to her window, she peeked out and squealed.

"He's here!" She said excitedly. Sue looked in the mirror for the final time before running out her room. She was halfway down the stairs when Johnny pushed past her and ran to the door.

"What are you doing?" She asked angrily, Sue checked her hair while glaring at Johnny.

"I need to give this Reed guy 'the talk' ok? Dad always gave the others 'the talk' but he's not here so the duty has been past down to me, k? Anyway, you said I'd be able to pull this intimidating thing off."

"Alright then," Sue said reluctantly. Johnny smirked before puffing out his chest and opening the door.

"So, you must be-" Johnny tried to put on a deep voice but he trailed off when he came face to face with Ben's bulky physique.

"Your…your…your Reed? Oh shit," Johnny muttered nervously as he looked up at Ben's face. Ben smirked. Johnny turned to look at Sue and glared.

"You said I could scare him," the teenager wailed quietly. He stopped glaring when Sue began to laugh. He heard Ben snicker behind him.

"What? … What are you guys laughing at? Sue!" Ben stepped to the side to reveal a lanky boy and a short girl with wavy brown hair. Sue walked up to Reed and put her arms around him.

"This is Reed," she said with a small giggle.

"That's Ben and his girlfriend Alison," she gestured to the couple that were now holding hands.

"Guys this is my brother Johnny." Johnny pouted and stormed off towards the garden.

"He'll get over it," Sue said dismissively.

"He wanted to scare me?" Reed asked trying to hide the smirk that was creeping across his face.

"Johnny wanted to tell you all this stuff about respecting me and keeping your hands to yourself. Something my dad would've said. If he tries it just pretend to be scared. For his ego's sake, plus you really don't want to get on the bad side of a Storm."

"Really?"

"Oh yeah. We're a vengeful group."

Johnny watched Reed and Sue from the corner sulkily. He glared at Ben who was standing beside him.

"For the record I wasn't scared of you," Johnny lied.

"Sure you weren't" Ben replied sarcastically. "I'm sure it was all part of the tough guy act huh?"

"Damn right! You gotta let these guys get all cocky and then bring 'em down hard!" Johnny said enthusiastically. Ben raised one eyebrow and went to get another sausage. Johnny sighed and turned his attention back to his sister and her boyfriend. The teenager grinned when Sue left Reed to go and talk to her friend Joanne. He ambled over to where the student was standing.

"Reed," Johnny said as if it were hello.

"Oh, hi Johnny," Reed said without looking at the blonde boy. Johnny's eyes narrowed.

"I don't know what it is my sister sees in you but she sees something," Johnny paused and glared at Reed who was now in stitches.

"I'm sorry," he said through a fit of giggles, "carry on," he added.

"I know what's going on here. Sue's a pretty girl, she's young, flirty and let's face it…your kinda like…. Nerd of the year." Reed couldn't believe what he was hearing; he pressed his lips together to prevent any laughter from escaping.

"As in the nerd who isn't getting any. So keep your hands to yourself, okay?" Johnny turned to walk away triumphantly when he remembered something. He turned around and pointed at finger at Reed.

"You don't wanna know what happens if you don't. The Storms are vengeful people." Reed burst out laughing earning him a sour look from the teenager.

END OF FLASHBACK

Heh heh.

Sounds funny.

"I said what are you going to do?" Sue asked forcefully.

"I dunno… just threaten him, he's scared of me now," Johnny smirked.

"What?" Sue asked in disbelief. "Victor isn't scared of you,"

"I'm a criminal, I do bad stuff and as far as he knows I could be a murderer on the run from the police."

"So you're going to go and tell Victor you're a murderer? Have you even thought about proof? and no I will not slip you a kitchen knife when he's not looking."

"Sue!" Johnny said with mock shock, "how dare you. I'd never use such a cheap scam, I'll just tell him I've got a gun or something."

"He won't believe you unless he sees you with a gun and we both know you haven't got one," Johnny looked down guiltily. Sue's jaw dropped.

"No. No no no no no no NO! Oh god Johnny why?" Sue wailed.

"It's not mine I swear," Johnny said desperately.

"I…I don't care. The point is you're carrying a dangerous weapon!"

"Don't worry it's empty. I checked," Johnny, said before adding quickly, "but not because I wanted to use it!"

"So you won't kill him?" Sue asked hopefully.

"Oh hell yeah! I wanna choke that guy to death."

"Johnny!"

"Fine. You can do it,"

"JOHNNY!"

"I was joking, jeez. Look sis, someone needs to put that bastard back in his place and it looks like I'm the only one who's not too busy licking his ass!"

And with that Johnny continued his journey to Von Doom mansion.

Hmm. At least someone here has the sense to kill Victor.

What!

Well come on. Victor is wrecking havoc. Johnny's absolutely right … for once.

I guess…

I GUESS! DID YOU SEE WHAT HE DID TO HER?

Of course, but two wrongs don't make a right.

THUMP THUMP

"Open this god damn door now!" Johnny yelled as he proceeded to hit the door as hard as he could.

"Johnny stop before you break it! That door cost a fortune!" Sue berated. Johnny ignored her.

"OPEN THE FUCKING DO-" The door swung open and Johnny landed in a heap on the floor. He stood up immediately and glared at Leonard who was standing there with a smug smile on his face.

"Mr Storm," Johnny glared at Victor who stood at the base of the stairs with a smile matching Leonard's. Johnny approached him menacingly, not taking his eyes off Victor's face. Sue hung back and watched anxiously near Leonard.

"How dare you," Johnny muttered just loud enough for everyone to hear. "How could you lay a hand on her?" he asked angrily. Victor laughed and raised one eyebrow.

"Johnny Johnny Johnny. When will you learn."

"When you stop acting like an asshole."

"Oh come on Johnny. We all know the only 'asshole' around here is you." Johnny glared and lunged at Victor. Victor sidestepped but Johnny had been expecting that. Johnny mirrored his move and delivered a powerful punch to Victor's nose. The older man clutched his nose and stared at Johnny in shock.

"You bastard." He growled as he wiped the blood trickling steadily out his nose. Johnny grinned and punched him again, sending Victor flying into the stairs. Johnny connected his knee with Victor's stomach. Victor tried to fight back but the pain in his stomach was almost unbearable. Victor dropped to his knees and sat on the stairs with his eyes closed, he gulped loudly when he felt something cold touch his left temple. He slowly opened his eyes to see Sue and Leonard watching with worried looks on their faces.

"You're still an asshole." Victor said with a smirk. He felt what Johnny was holding press harder onto his head.

"Johnny don't do this," Sue begged. "Just put the gun down," Victor tensed. Johnny with a gun was one combination that didn't sound good.

"What, so this guy can come and try to kill me?"

"Then give the gun to me Johnny. Please."

"Sue look at yourself. Look at what this guy has done to you. D'ya honestly think he'd be all protective if you were him right now." Sue paused. Johnny had a good point but everything seemed so wrong.

"Johnny, please. It doesn't have to end like this. Me and you can just leave right now and never see Victor again."

"Sorry Sue but if I don't do this now we both know he'll kill you."

"Johnny don't say things like that,"

"I'm serious Sue. You'll be so god damn happy when this bastard is de-"

THUNK

Sue screamed as Johnny suddenly crumpled into a heap on the floor. Behind him stood Valeria holding the baseball bat her boyfriend had left at the house. Her facial expression was a mixture of horror, anger and fright. She looked down at her uncle and father worriedly. Victor stood up and patted his daughter on the back. He picked up the gun that was held loosely in Johnny's hand and looked at it.

"Hmm. Nice." He commented with a smirk.

Author's note: Something tells me this chapter ending would work a lot better in a film. Just picture it… okay, well…does it work? Now I bet everyone is wondering how the hell can you get arrested and walk in and out of the police station with a gun in your possession. Well, I decided that on his way out, Johnny saw a friend being taken in and they asked him to hold onto the gun because if they were found with it…well you can guess. And I chose Valeria to hit Johnny over the head because Leonard isn't behind them and how would you feel to hear all this yelling and see your uncle holding a gun to your dad's head. Now you're totally naive and are Daddy's little girl. Yeah, you would save your daddy, I know I would. :P

P.S. Johnny isn't dead
