AN: After seeing John wick: the second chapter. I thought... with people always coming for him... and the fact that john would never be killed. What would happen on the day he's killed everyone who dared go for the contract? Would they ever take it down? I imagine so, hence where this story comes in. Enjoy maybe? I know from experience first attempts never end well... usually. So here's hoping. See you.

Chapter 1: Winston's remorse
"John Wick... you always were something else." He muttered, sitting in his high class chair sipping his drink of wine. He thought on the John Wick incident, as everyone now called it. When Johnathon Wick broke the rules of Continental in front of the manager himself... it's been two years since then, and now Winston faced the choice, keep Wick excommunicated or drop it. All of the new members of the continental thought on taking on the infamous John Wick. None have succeeded, only resulting in 'Missing' members. John had managed to make his own empire, just for him... people who feared him and didn't dare defy him. Wick had yet to kill anyone who denied but he was terrifying in nature. He had reputation, so when he came knocking no one dared refuse... minus those who didn't know the legend. He was tempted, oh so tempted to let them stay excommunicated. But to do that was to doom more members to die in an attempt to make a name for themselves. Only two people remained who still knew of John Wick, they had chosen not to go after them. One of them still held a knife wound in his chest from where Wick stabbed him. He let them live, and they recovered. The second was a woman who was mute, spoke only in sign language and was near dead when continental staff found her. Wick had done a number on them, but thanks to the fact that he had stabbed her hand before stabbing her in the trachea. She lived, so now that left him this difficult choice... he could take off Wick's excommunicated status. He could do nothing on the now 22 million dollar contract made by the high table. But if he took that route, he would be breaking the rules of continental for Wick. No one could touch him, he was the manager after all. But he knew he would end up with more rule breakers... it took him so long just to consider this, but he would forever have a net loss in terms of members. He has been hiding the actual numbers for a while. In an attempt to prevent a hostile takeover by the high table or any other criminal organization... but having Wick... the legend... the myth... the boogeyman... having them in his arsenal, being able to call him a member of the continental again... it would be the greatest weapon he could have. But could he do it... could he live with making an exception to the supposedly rigid system of the continental? Only two would know of Wick being given the status he was given. He could always 'convince' them... but again... what should he do here?
AU: yeah that's all. I'm still debating on whether to make this a full story or not... I'm still not sure to be honest. Even less sure someone will see this.
