Trigger warnings are always applied!

Note(s): I took this chapter in a different direction, but I wanted to clarify the Thunderman's existence in this fic so here it is. Next chapter I'll continue with Henry's storyline, promise. I've been debating on starting a new Thundermans fic, but I won't start on it until I finish this one, and I'm planning on giving this fic a good 10 - 15 chapters before I'm through with it. Also, the only thing I've used to edit chapters is Grammarly's free account so, sorry if I missed errors.

HENRY DANGER

Six Months Ago...

(Post - Secret Revealed and Banished)

Phoebe and Max knew their father was watching them train as he usually did. Ever since they developed their telepathy powers the twins have been using it as a means of communication more often than not. Max ducked as Phoebe threw a kick at his ribs, close one Pheebs, Max thought.

What's been going on? Max frowned then tried to freeze her with his freeze breath, but she used her own fire breath to turn his attack into a mist.

Nothing, promise. He saw her narrow her eyes then she landed a blow to his ribs using her bow staff. He retreated back instinctively covering the part of his ribs she hit. Max cartwheeled out of the way of another attack then swiped his leg taking hers out from behind her knees. She hit the floor and Max rolled on the floor moving then came up holding her in a headlock. Phoebe tapped the floor signaling her surrender. Max released his twin then said, "I'm fine, promise." Suddenly Nora came running outside,

"Max your emergency alarms are going off!" Max ran into his house then activated the and he stared at the notification that took over his screen...

(Flashback)

Max sat at his desk going through his computer software. Give the fact his parents were understandably against his villainous activity so they refused to fund him in any way shape or form. He created his computer systems from scratch, going dumpster diving in the dark for hours on end trying to find salvageable equipment. "God, why does this have to be so difficult?" He wondered out loud as he continued to try to download the Hero and Villan League's database (which he hacked into) onto his own processors. Even though he was technically a superhero now the other members of the Hero League would sneer at him whenever he would walk into HQ with his sister. Max was determined to make a name for himself in whichever side of the war he ended up on, but he wanted to do it by himself.

"Max Thunderman?" A distorted voice said through his computer speakers. Suddenly static showed on every single computer screen.

"No, no, no no no!" Max muttered he quickly hit the emergency lockdown button before turning to his computers. He began to type in commands in hopes of saving his projects, but thanks to his luck nothing happened.

With is room on emergency lockdown Max didn't have to worry about the threat escaping to his house and attacking his family, unless if it already did... Whoever hacked into his computers laughed then he spoke, "relax Maximus, I will not harm your siblings or your parents for that matter. I am here as a courtesy, I know you are well informed of Kid Danger's death, I want you to know that I killed him." The entire room powered down when the emergency lights turned on there was a man standing in the middle of Max's room, a man the superhero had never seen before.

"Stay where you are!" Max shouted he tried to use his freeze breath to capture the intruder, but the guy was well trained. He tucked and jumped out of the way, landing on the pile of rocks that served as a secret exit out of the house. The unknown vigilante grabbed something out of his utility belt and fired it at Max's direction, just barely missing his head. "What the hell dude?!" Max asked, if this guy was the person who killed Henry Hart then he needed to be careful. It seemed to Max the vigilante wouldn't flinch if he had to cap off someone else. Once it was clear they were at a stalemate and Max wasn't going to try to capture the guy anymore he did a cartwheel off of the rock he was on and landed on his feet.
