Like Killer, Like Son

Living is Easy Alex, Dying is Harder

~Alex~

Holy crap I'm dead, at least I think I am. It's kinda...

Complicated

I'm back at my old house in the Caribbean before anything bad happened. I look out the window and everything looks normal, I guess. No one to kill but its still a nice area. I walk outside so i can try to comprehend whats going on.

Hm, maybe death isnt so bad- shit i just saw burr.

"Alexander" he calls while walking towards me.

"Aaron Burr, sir..." I growl.

"...Glad to see you can no longer hurt anyone else"

"Hey you're dead too so shut up!"

"Yeah im dead... Wait why are you so calm about this? I would think youd be afraid of death"

"What?! The only thing to fear is fear itself and i fear nothing. And why would a sociopathic murderer be afraid of death? Idiot."

"Asshole"

"I'm afraid of nothing and no one so you can once again shut up-"

"Alexander!"

I recognize that voice. I turn to see angelica running towards me with a baseball bat. I actually dont know what to do

"...Hey angelica! Hows it going-" I fall to the ground as she starts hitting me with the bat. "What the heck is wrong with you?! Whered you get that?"

"You killed my sister! You took away so many lives!" She yells while hitting me again. I can hear burr laughing.

I kick her away and grab the bat, breaking it over my knee. I throw the pieces to the side.

"So what i killed Eliza? Youre dead too so you can spend the rest of eternity with her" I growl.

"Thats not the point" Burr says. "We still have family. The people you killed had family."

There's pain in my chest AGAIN. Not from guilt or being attacked. I think... I think im being revived.

Wow, I'm truly not allowded to die and stay dead.

I take the opportunity to make a new promise.

"Hey angelica, I do recall you having another sister. Peggy being her name" i say.

"What are you getting at?" She snaps.

"It'd be my pleasure to give you a family reunion"

"Stay away from Peggy!"

"Same thing goes for you too burr! I heard you got married to a miss Theodosia AND you have a daughter"

"You stay away from them" he takes a step towards me.

"Ah too bad you can't stop me. See ya! Wouldn't want to be ya!"

I wake up on the hospital floor. Theres at least three doctors and only one of them i know.

Usnavi and John staring at me with tears in their eyes.

Pip looked like he had just seen a ghost

The other two doctors looked like they couldnt decide on wheter to run or get help.

The room is quiet though.

"Well good sirs, what'd i miss?" I say.

Everyone, including the doctors, rushed over and hugged me.

"Ok yes im alive, now get off me before i paint this room red." They all back off almost immediately. Smart people- no, smart idiots.

"I t-thought you were dead" john said through tears. "I swear you're going to indirectly murder me."

"And I'll make an appearance at your funeral!" He laughs a little.

"Shut up you sociopath"

"Ah, but I'm your sociopath" I smirk then look towards Philip.

"Hey pip, you up for a little murder road trip?"

He laughs and gives a thumbs up. Usnavi looks down at the ground.

"You can come too Usnavi. I know you're not a killer like me but you're still family." I say. He smiles and wipes away his tears.

"Well Mr Laurens, looks like you just can't get rid of me." There's a slight fear in his eyes that reminds me of when we first met.

"Whats wrong John? Can't handle a bit of formality?"

He never did give me a proper answer. I guess today was the day.

"I can handle formality. The true question is if you can handle a bit of insanity" he says.

"I believe you know the answer"

He kisses me and I have never been more happy in my life. Im happier than i an when i kill.

John, Philip, Usnavi. They're my family no matter what.

"Alex? Are you crying?" John asks.

"What? No, definitely not!" I wipe my eyes.

"You totally are! You're crying!"

"Fuck you"

We all laugh as the doctors leave, looking both confused and concerned.

Yep, we're family. And I might end up back on the list of America's most wanted. Philip too.

Yeah, like killer, like son
