♧ Peter Scanavino as Aleksandr "Alec" Fyodorovich Mikhailov ♧

◇Chris Hemsworth as Konstantin  "Tino" Fyodorovich Mikhailov◇

Alec and Tino have never gotten along. Some might say it's because they are too different. Others will call it "sibling rivaly".
This story starts at the very beginning.

-----------------------

5th of June. Alec, age 7. Tino, age 0

"It looks like a potato" Alec frowned as he looked at the little baby wrapped up in his arms. "What is this?" Some might describe his facial expression as confused or even disgusted.

"That is your little brother, Aleksandr. His name is Konstantin"

Alec looked up at his father, the always serious man was carrying a smile on his lips. This was good day, right?

"You told me i would get someone to play with. Not some weird little monkey. He looks all squished" he huffed as he stared down at the baby again. Little Tino has opened his eyes and looked at his big brother in amazement. But since he only got a glare back, he started crying.

"It's so loud. Make it stop!" Alec complained as he handed the baby back to his mother and then left the room.

"He will grow into it, right?"

"Of course he will"

------------------------------

16th of January Alec, age 11. Tino, age 4

"Al, Al. play with me"

Alec looked down to see his brother tug at his sleeve. He rolled his eyes slightly. "Go away, Tino. Father said he would show me the company today" he said. Well Aleksandr had always been their dads favourite. Oldest son. Heir of the company.

Tino on the other hand liked being around their mom more. Cooking, taking care of the garden, all that kind of stuff.

The only thing these two boys had in common was probably their stubborness.

"But i wanna play now! You never play with me"

"Well because you are small and slow. I don't even know what we could play" Alec mumbled and shook his head. But then he got an idea. "Okay fine. Lets play hide and seek. You hide and i count"

"Really? Yay!" And with that, Tino happily ran off to hide somewhere. Finally his brother played with him. Right?

Well....no. Alec waited for their father and then left without even thinking twice about Tino anymore.

"Al? Im here! Was i so hard to find? Al?"

----------------------------

6th of October Alec, age 13. Tino, age 6

"When you become the big boss of the mafia, can i be your right hand man?" With that question, Tino had pushed open the door to Alec's room without knocking. He smiled as he jumped onto Alec's bed. "Then we can lead dad's mafia together!"

Alec put his book down and groaned. God. This kid was annoying. "Listen, i don't know about you, but i would like our dad to stay alive for a lot longer. I will be the boss once it's time for him to retire. Not earlier. And dad does a great job as the boss at the moment"

"But can i be your right hand then?? Pleaseeeeeeee" Tino looked at his brother with big puppy eyes. "That would be so cool!"

"Can you name one way to naturally dispose a body without a trace? Come on. How do i do that?"

Tino looked confused for a few seconds. How was he supposed to know that. "I....i...i dont know? But you could teach me! Please"

"Pigs" Alec opened his book again. "They eat everything except for the teeth and nails. Remove those and there will be no trace" he just mumbled more to himself than to his brother.

"Oh okay. Pigs. Got it. See? Im a quick learner. I will remember everything you teach me. I swear"

"No, Tino"

"Pleaseeee. please please please please please"

"....fine. Now leave me alone"

----------------------------

29th of march Alec, age 15. Tino age 8

"Shhhh you are gonna wake up the baby" Alec mumbled and huffed slightly.

"What baby??" Tino looked around in confusion. Their mom's best friend was here. He now only noticed the baby carrier. "I didn't know she was pregnant" he slowly said and frowned. Why was Alec acting so caring for this strange baby? He had never been like that with him.

"This is Nestor. Hes gonna be my right hand man someday" Alec grinned widely. This was all in the far future, right?

Tino could feel his eyes burning as he stared at his brother. "What? Why?" he took a deep breath. Okay. Calm down. No crying in front of everyone. "But...you said...i could be that someday" he said and shook his head. "Why would you do that??"

"When did i ever say that? Do you got any prove?"

This was the moment where Tino decided to never ask his brother for anything ever again.

--------------------------

14th of August Alec, age 20. Tino, age 13

It had been a typical day in the summer. Up until Alec came back from a trip with their father. Carrying no other than their dad's body. "Mama, help" he shouted as he put the body down. But he could already tell that it was too late. Their father had lost too much blood.

"What happened?" Tino was almost scared to ask. He looked his brother up and down for a second.

"Don't ask stupid questions and help me take care of his injuries!" Alec just scoffed, his bloody hands pressing onto the gun wound. "Help me, Tino!"

Tino looked for any sign of life in their father and then slowly shook his head. "There's...nothing we can do for him anymore" he whispered.

"NO!" Alec took a step back. Tears started streaming down his face. "No! If i had just ran here faster...if i had just reacted quicker! He would still be alive!"

"I...this is not your fault, Alec" Tino mumbled as he slowly stepped closer to pet his brother's shoulder. "None of this is your fault. Really"

This was the moment Alec snapped. All the emotions broke out of him at the same time. He pushed his brother away harshly. "DON'T TOUCH ME! I don't need your comfort! LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!"

Tino stumbled backwards and landed on the floor. He just stared up at his brother and didn't say anything for a few seconds. "I wish you would have gotten shot instead of dad!" he then shouted before running off to his room.

----------------------------

3rd of July Alec, age 25. Tino age 18

Tino came downstairs for breakfast and frowned when he saw his brother looking mad. He sighed slightly. "Did something happen?" he slowly asked.

"The police academy? REALLY?" Alec waved around with a piece of paper. "If dad would know about this, he would turn in his grave!" he shouted and glared at his brother. "You are a dishonor to your family!"

"Why did you look through my mail?!" Tino grabbed the letter from Alec and read over it. Looked like he had been accepted! Yay. Right? "I can do anything i want with my life, Alec. I don't want to be part of your mafia. I want to fight crimes, not commit them"

Alec's anger suddenly disappeared and his face got cold. "If you go through with this, then i won't see you as my brother any longer" he said and got up. Then he turned around to leave.

"Well fine! You never saw me as that anyways! Fuck you, Aleksandr!"

"Fuck you too, Konstantin!"
