(Marvel's The Punisher Fanfiction) The question: to what extent will one go for their family? When news spreads to New York of a source with incriminating evidence to take down a powerful sector of the Triad, Pete Castiglione laughs at the Justice System's attempt to attack a vigorous crime organization through the law. However, when the identity of the source is revealed, Pete doesn't hesitate to rush out from the shadows to not only resume his title as the Punisher but as a father too: a role he thought was out of his reach entirely.

Alex McKinley, sometimes known as Olivia Anderson (it's complicated) is an ex-SHIELD officer. Instead of retiring her skills, she put them to use and became an assassin. She runs into Frank Castle on a mission one evening. When she returns to New York, she searches for Frank, who's supposedly dead. She helps him finally finish the mission he started. They find that they're much more similar than they're willing to admit. The realization leads to much more violence, cursing and a complicated friendship (if that's what you want to call it). *I don't own Marvel's Punisher.
