Summary
Scott Essex believes he has no brother instead it was a trick his mind played him to be able to cope, that was at least what his father said. His father does not lie, he loves him. Being found by Sinister and raised as his son was not easy but Scott deals with it. His past before that being but an unimportant blur he has no access to. He is part of the Marauders and protecting his father's work from mutants such as the X-Men.
Alex Summers on the other hand still struggles with the loss of his older brother unsure if what he does is enough and what he wants to do. Is he just as much an amazing brother to Gabriel as Scott was to him? Everything changes though when he finds out that Scott was not dead but instead held by Sinister. What would happen if they were ever to cross paths with one another.This story tries to play with the question of what would happen had Sinister adopted Scott as his son instead of trying to manipulate him in the dark.
The title is a line from the song 'The Line' by Twenty One Pilots
