Twin Snake

During the battle with Big Boss and Solid Snake back in Washington DC, in the distance, Liquid Snake was rushing through the rooftops with a sniper rifle in hand and a tactical ski mask.

"What's happening now, Ocelot?!" Liquid yelled into his microphone,

"According to the live feed, Big Boss and Solid Snake are still on the helicopter." Ocelot replied,

"I can't let this escape from me too! I won't let him do this to me again!" declared Liquid.

"Stay focused, kid." reassured Ocelot as Liquid arrived at the perfect sniping position, he took aim at the helicopter where he saw through his scope Big Boss dangling Solid Snake.

"Eli, there's an incoming blue line train on the uptown line." informed Ocelot, Liquid took a deep breath as he locked onto Big Boss's head but suddenly, his heart began to tighten and he could feel his body stiffen. Liquid knew this feeling and was trying to prevent it from happening,

"No!…not now!" Liquid grunted as he dug into his pocket for a syringe,

"Eli, your vitals, they're spiking!" Ocelot worriedly told him,

"I don't..care!" He replied as he jammed the syringe in his neck but then he saw Solid and Big Boss fall onto the train. Instantly he jumped off the roof and onto the street then quickly stole a nearby motorcycle and went on pursuit for the train. Liquid Snake adjusted the rifle so he could be as comfortable with holding the rifle while driving, he looked down at the scope and tried one more time locking onto Big Boss but his fight with Liquid's twin brother was making it hard for Liquid Snake to keep track of him. Suddenly, that surge came back once again, he misfired, shot the train link apart then swerved onto the bridge to Arlington National Cemetery, losing consciousness from the impact. Eventually, he woke up and felt around for the syringe,

" Last dosage for the day… " he thought to himself as he injected himself once more and his body found the strength to get himself up. Liquid noticed in the distance Solid Snake entering the cemetery and knew he had no time to lose.

"Eli! You're alive, thank god. What happened?" Ocelot asked,

"Damn these cursed genes…" Liquid replied as he ran into the cemetery,

"Raven and Octopus are on their way, just finish the mission and leave." ordered Ocelot, Liquid quickly hung up and walked into the graveyard, aiming his P90 SMG. Liquid then heard the distant battle of his brother and father and quickly rushed up only to stop once he saw his father get stabbed in the heart then brutalized. He watched in the shadows as his Solid Snake delivered the killing blow, the killing blow that Liquid wanted to deliver. As he watched his brother punch their garbage father, Liquid clenched his fists and was visibly shaking in anger, in envy, all towards his twin brother. Later that day, Liquid Snake arrived in his underground hideout where the mustached Revolver Ocelot was sitting in front of the monitors, also in the base were four other people. One was a blonde Kurdish woman who had a sniper rifle on her side, next to her were two wolves and on her chest was a newborn. The next person was a ginger Russian man in a trench coat but noticeably was his gas mask with orange lenses. Behind them was a tall strong Inuit man with a flock of ravens on his shoulder and finally a Mexican man with thin hair sitting on the couch. They looked at Liquid's angry face and immediately figured something was wrong,

"What happened?" asked the Kurdish woman,

"He's dead…my brother killed him…he stole my kill…" Liquid said in a very angry tone,

"If you're going to yell, don't do it in front of the infant." She sternly told him,

"He crossed the line, Wolf. He's crossed the damn line. That bastard deserved to die but he deserved to die by my hand, not his. He never experienced the hell that I went through because of him, the abuse, the nightmares, he knows nothing of that." ranted Liquid,

"Calm down, Eli. You're thinking irrational now-"

"No! I'm not, they'll send him after me just to get rid of us, I know they will. With him gone, we're wanted people who are on limited time, I don't know how long I can go on with these cursed genetics." He looked at the infant as she slept on Wolf's chest,

"We need to act soon, we need to act now before it's too late for me and baby Leah. I won't sit here and die just yet until I get what I want, until I watch them burn. I made a vow when we were young that I would kill all The Patriots, that I'd destroy their precious worlds until they regret ever subjecting me through this damnation!" declared Liquid, Ocelot then walked up to him with a file that was labeled " REX ".

"What the hell is this?" asked Liquid,

"A weapon to surpass Metal Gear…if you want to be at the center stage, best to wait. We have a long time to plan for this new era." explained Ocelot, Liquid opened and saw what was in the file, everything simply made him grin while the others were curious.

"Wolf, Mantis, Raven, Octopus, Ocelot, we got work to do…it's not over, not yet." He said to them as he put the file on the table and turned around,

" You hear that brother…one day I'll meet you….and we will settle this, the brother of light vs the brother of dark….this is far from over… "
