It was a cold night in Hell.('s Kitchen NY) Twenty-five yaer old Marni was in deep birth, five miles away from the hospital. He boyfriend Rodger had left her with the baby on the way and she had no car so it was a long walk for her. It was so painful for her to endure walking the hard streets with no shoes on.
Finally she saw the hospital, it showed brightly through the smog and lights of the neighborhood. She took a short cut, through an allyway. She was halfway there when she had to stop due to pain. Once she stopped she was met by a group of thugs. They checked her for cash and found nothing. The leader grew angry and stabbed her in her inflated stomach. She screamed in pain as she hit the ground and bled out.
It was lucky she was so close to birth or they would have raped her until she died and after. She laid there and tried to get to the hospital but was loosing too much blood. She was found the next day by a nurse. She was half dead. The nurse rushed them to the hospital and closed the wound and gave her a blood transfusion. She was too weak to even contract. They posponed they birth until she was better. That took a week.
When she finally gave birth... Marni had an anurism and died. Daniel was born with a scar across his right eye.(the knife...) If it had not been for the extra week he would have lost that eye. Daniel was quickly sent to an orphanage but he escaped when he was five. After that he stole to get what he needed. He read the book Into the Inferno and loved it.
He renamed himself Dante in honor of the main character and it was symbolic for his trip through hell. he grew up a fighter, taking on gangs and what not. He was soon discover by Toa, a martial arts instructer. He was taken in and taught him in the way of the sword.
One day, Dante was sparring and was dis armed.... out of sheer will power her sommoned a sword of energy. He held it for only a second and then cried in pain. In that one moment Dante had recieve third degree burns. Toa saw an opertunity.
He trained Dante to an inch of his life every day from then on. He discovered that if he used a sword hilt, dante could wield it care free. and if it was out of his grasp, the weapon became a hilt once more. He also found out that Dante can trasnsfer energy to others as an attack but the back lash was very great.
Toa decided Dante was ready. He showed him the true face of his dojo. Toa was the leader of an elete terrorist syndicate. Dante couldn't except it. He was discusted with this and with the man who was his only family. He ran away from the dojo that night and vowed to return with enough forces to stop Toa's madness.
Dante was eventually met by a guy name Brian. Brian was unique in how fast and acrobatic he was. At the point Dante met him Brian wore a skii mask and climbing gear with a kavlar vest. They were an unbeatable team. Their determination matched only by there raw power and deadly accuracy. One day they went to investigate a bomb threat.
What they found there was astonding! there was an army of men guarding the building! They cut there way in and when they got to the top it was none other then Toa, holding the president of the credit card company hostage. They defeated Toa, more like he retreated. They untied the president and tried to get him out of the building but he refused to move.
He was standing on a pressure plate... if he moved... he died. "For the brotherhood! FOR THE BROTHERHOOD! He screamed over and over with a demented laugh. "Run!" They said in unison, jumping out the window into a building across the street as the president blew up his own building.
"This is too big for us Brian."
You're telling me!"
And thus, with the addition of five more members, F.A.W.S. was born!
