![]() ![]() But their relationship became strained as he's teenage rebellion lead him to becoming impatient with David who would continually have criminals incarcerated only for them to escape and kill more innocents - just like his father. The two had soon begun to work in near-perfect synchrony - David had missed the days of having a partner. With reluctance, Bates agreed and so after years of training and travelling on "fishing trips with Uncle David" he was schooled in the many martial arts that added up to becoming a vigilante such as Cold Steel and though Bates was opposed to firearms and deemed them unnecessary force, he recognised the importance of being able to use one in an emergency and so taught Tommy how to wield one.Īnd so around three years after his father's death (which he understood and reassured Bates was not Cold Steel's fault) Tommy took up the name Red Wonder, partially in memorial of his father.Īged 19, Tommy had served as Cold Steel's sidekick for three years now. Fending off each of the criminals with minimal difficulty, Tommy was amazed and before long his natural intelligence lead to the seemingly obvious deduction of the identity of his guardian angel - the two men that always looked over him seems to have similar voices as well as chins.Īnd so Tommy confronted Bates and demanded that he would be taught in Cold Steel's ways. Sensing the danger, Bates intervened as they demanded more and more of he. He was not a fighter and so struggled to defend himself from the knife-wielding thieves. On his way home from school, Tommy was attacked by muggers at dusk. He tried his hardest but he could not make it to the warehouse quick enough to help Red Fire and the building was set aflame with both Red Fire and Greed inside.Įver since, David Bates (Cold Steel's true identity) couldn't help but feel personally responsible and would so look over Tommy and his family both as Bates and as Steel.īut before his fourteenth birthday, Steel had to make his presence known. But as Cold Steel arrived at the factory in which Pain was waiting, he found that Pain was alone - he had sent all his men to the warehouse where Red Fire was headed. The two split up to cover both positions of the two criminals, as both had laid bombs to start a terrorist frenzy. Fire and Steel would sweep the streets at night, dissolving gangs and putting madmen behind bars a true example of fear.īut one night, a duo of criminal psychopaths known only as Pain and Greed escaped from confinement and as Fire and Steel went to face the madmen they were all too prepared for them. When he was very young, unbeknownst to anyone his father John Drake secretly engaged in crimefighting by night as Red Fire, partner and equal (not a sidekick) to Cold Steel operating in Scarlet City.
