Song for this chapter: Numb by Linkin Park.
"Dante my body is moving on it's own! I can't control myself!" Felicia felt a surge of dark memories flood her mind, she sees her dead husband in a pool of blood, shot by enforcers, she see Dante evilly smirking and his glowing a demonic red color and standing over the dead body of his father. She angrily clenched the knife and points at Dante she thinks that Dante had killed his own father.
Dante's assassin instincts kicked in full force he quickly goes to pull out a hidden combat dagger from his wrist, he was very skilled with bladed weapons, he knew how to use katana swords, knives, pocket knives, combat knives, daggers, throwing knife, Karambits, and many more bladed weapons like spears and axes. Dante didn't want to kill his mother, but she goes to attack kill him he of course will defend himself. Either way he will first stop her with force and his system without killing her.
"Stop it mother! You are hallucinating! Drop the knife!" Dante commands his mother whose body was now being over controlled by the insane amounts of Shimmer and Hextech injected into her body by Dante. "Shit, what did I do wrong? I thought I took out all of the toxic effects of shimmer chemicals and side effects and boost the super-human abilities but without all of the negatives. Should I go back in time with my Z-Drive Hexcore and find out my slight mistake and fix it to cure my mother entirely, but if I do that then who knows if I will be able to save my mother and bring her back to life again, I don't think it's worth the risk. I can't keep going back in time to fix my mistakes, it will only drain my mana more and risk me dying, " Dante thinks to himself as he holds his up golden pocket steampunk watch [A/N: picture here], inside of the pocket watch was a small hex core sphere floating around creating its own gravity.
Signed looks over to Dante, "You see now the curse of being a genius,. You have saved your mother from death but at what cost? Your advanced technology is too powerful for are young scientists like you to wield, or should I say a Mage, you have much to learn,"
"I already know way more things than you old man. So shut your fucking old mouth up before I slice it off," Dante angrily glares at Singed with his golden eyes which flickered with rage.
"Dante!" Felicia grips the knife tightly she was sweating and breathing heavily her blue eyes shaking in fear and confusion. Her now super-enhanced female body frame was exploding with power. She rushes towards at such a fast speed that she almost stabs Dante's neck, he quickly dodge her attack and grabs her arm. There was no fear seen in Dante's eyes after all he was the worlds most strongest assassin in his past life.
However he was shocked to see how fast she was, but he knew it was the power of the modified Hextech Shimmer he had given her. Dante quickly punches his mother in the stomach and knocks her out, he was very strong for his age, he even had slightly injected himself with Hextech Shimmer before using it on his own mother. So he himself was very faster, even faster than his mother and of course even stronger, for a measure of power he was around Vander's power level [strength wise] plus he had the body frame and strength of a Super Solider[Marvel verse].
"Rest for now mother and let me figure out what is wrong with you, but at least you alive," Dante holds her body and looks over at Singed. She was knocked out of air but still alive Dante didn't hit hard enough to kill her with a punch though if he wanted to punch someone to death he could.
"Did you do anything with the Shimmer you gave me and the one I injected into my mother? Also who did you call outside of my lab," Dante commanded Signed to ask his question with his sharp assassin instincts Dante was able to hear Singed call someone on his old steampunk phone device[handheld transceiver]Singed actually was afraid of Dante's powers and smarts, and the fact that he might be a mage, what Singed didn't know was that Dante was even more powerful than a Mage after all he had a Template System.
Signed sighs, "Dante you are too smart to be born from Zaun, you will become a Legend fast, but everyone in Zaun will want your power for themselves or hunt you down until you are dead and your entire family as well, they do will whatever it takes to take away your power Dante. But I am not like that, I once made the mistake of being a genius alchemist and I paid dearly for it by losing my daughter. That is why I will do whatever it takes to bring her back."
"Hurry up and answer my questions Doctor," Dante growled as he points a dagger at Singed and attack him he was so fast that his movements alone made a flash of golden sparks appear from his black combat boots and arms and around the knife he was holding. He was almost as fast as the speed of light. Blood leaks down from Singed's cheeks he was beyond shocked by Dante's super speed, even when he was holding his unconscious mother's body he was super fast. Dante was now holding a combat dagger at Singed neck ready to slit his throat at any moment if finds out that he betrayed him.
"To answer your first question, no I did not alter the shimmer I have given you. You probably would have noticed anyways, and the second question," Signed goes to answer Dante's question. Suddenly the lab door is knocked.
'Who can that be?' Dante thinks to himself. Signed is quite obviously hiding something, "It seems our time together as genius scientist and alchemist is over, it was nice meeting you Dante maybe in the future will meet again. Maybe you will change your mind about me and my dark 'methods' but I assure you I will do anything to push the limits of science. Especially to save the ones I love. I look forward to the creations you will build in the future. You can either use your power for Good or Evil it is your choice. I hope your mother recovers fast from the shimmer and escapes the curse of science. But a curse can also be a blessing," Signed wisely said as he packs his bags and walks outside, Dante stopped him, "You aren't going anywhere," His Assassin Mind can tell that Signed was lying to him, since someone was at the door.
Dante quickly opens the door and his golden eyes widened with killer instinct, it was the most dangerous person in Zaun.

Another cliffhanger lol. The next part will be the finale of the MC saving Vi and Jinx mom, so in short the MC is alive and saved but she basically has mixed of Jinx's powers and Hextech inside of her of course. But in the next chapter you will see that happen with Felicia's fate and the furtue of the MC. Short Time skip will be soon in the chapter after.
