(2007)
In the McMahon-Helmsley house, Hunter napped on the couch after having watched his sons for hours while his wife was at meetings. He heard shouting from above right before something landed right on top of him and he groaned while opening his eyes to see his middle son Seth laughing. The boy clearly had launched himself off the couch arm to land on his dad and seemed happy to have gotten the man's attention.
"Seth, what have I told you and Dean about jumping off things?" Hunter asked as he sat up with his son held close to his chest.
"Not to do it. Right daddy?" the eight year old beamed up with an innocent look.
"So why did you just do it?" Hunter asked to see his son's smile widen.
"I didn't jump. I dropped." Seth laughed and crawled off his dad to go locate his brothers.
"Wonderful. A too smart kid." Hunter sighed as he got up from the couch. "Roman? Dean?"
"Yeah, dad." the ten year old dark haired boy came from a doorway.
"Are you hungry?"
"Ice cream!"
Hunter saw that his twin sons had dressed themselves up to look the same and wore baseball caps backwards to cover up their hair. The man knew he should be concerned on this little fascination the twins had on looking alike and pretending to be each other, but it's probably something they will grow out of once closer to being in their teenager years. He guided his sons to the kitchen table with instructions that they shall eat their lunch before getting anything like ice cream. It looked like Stephanie had gotten lunch for their sons and he took chef Boyardee cans from the cabinet. One ordered of mini raviolis and two beefaronis were shouted at Hunter as he popped the food in bowels before heating them up slightly in the microwave. As Hunter was doing that, he asked his oldest son to get drinks for himself and his brothers that Roman nodded to. The boy opened the fridge door to see the juice boxes were on the top shelf and went behind it to start pushing the appliance over. Luckily Hunter had just turned then and quickly used his own strength to prevent a huge mess from happening.
"Rome, what did me and mom say about using your strength like this?" Hunter asked as he got the three juice boxes.
"I don't know." Roman shrugged and took the juice boxes back to the table for his brothers.
"I want the fruit punch." Seth said as he reached across the table trying to take it from his older brother.
"No. You said you wanted cherry." Roman told him as he guarded his picked juice box.
"Give me it!" Seth shouted like a spoiled brat.
"Seth, please don't shout." Hunter instructed as he went to grab a fruit punch from the fridge. "Here you go."
"No! I want the one Roman has." Seth sounded very much like a spoiled brat.
"Dad!" Roman looked annoyed at his little brother.
This has been an ongoing thing with Seth not getting what he wants and throwing tantrums. Like with the twin stuff, Hunter believes it will stop once the middle boy is eleven or twelve. Suddenly in a bolt of speed, Seth snatched the juice box from Roman to then be sitting in his seat with the juice box in front of him and then he saw the angry look his older brother had. Before he could react, Roman lifted the table with the juice box on it and this caused Seth to make a pouting looking expression as he's about to throw a tantrum. Really wishing Stephanie was here, Hunter set Dean's bowl of food down on the counter before guiding his oldest in putting the table back down. The fact his two older sons had hard times learning control of their powers was a struggle to Hunter while his wife just calm them with her own calming touch power. He separated Seth and Roman who fought the most with each other while Dean barely fought with them. It seemed that the youngest boy caught on to what his dad needed and his eyes focused on his two brothers.
"Rome, Seth; stop fighting and sit down." Dean used his own mental persuasion powers.
"Thank you, little lunatic." Hunter said as the three boys now were all eating their lunch with no more fighting.
As a father, Hunter had learned much with what it's like with young children with the fact you have to know the right way to do things. Seth and Dean like the same things which helps a little with getting them dressed or eating their meals. Though Seth was harder to get to do school work and their temperaments were total opposites. Seth had tantrums whenever not getting his way and Dean didn't really care. Roman being the oldest was helpful to keep an eye on the twins and hand full with as before him and Seth always fight with each other. Coughs from Dean had Hunter kneeling beside his son to rub his back since still the doctors had no idea why he keeps getting them. A knock on the door had Hunter excusing himself from the kitchen with instructions to his sons to be good. Once he was gone, the boy's cousin Finn popped into the kitchen to steal Seth's juice box and then teleport out right before Hunter came back.
"Finn, stole my juice." Seth told his dad who sighed.
"Seth, your cousin isn't in the country. Now what did you do with it?" Hunter asked as he looked around the kitchen.
"Finn took it." Seth shouted with his pouting look now on his face.
"Enough. Now go play boys." Hunter said as he began cleaning up.
"I'm running away!" Seth announced over the fact his dad won't get his juice box back from Finn. "Grandpa Vince and Grandma Linda will treat me right."
"Go right ahead." Hunter didn't think his son would do it.
Close to an hour later, Hunter heard his oldest calling him and he looked to Roman as the boy entered the kitchen. When Roman told him that Seth had packed a bag with clothes and bolted out with Dean, the wrestler's eyes widened in shock. He knew Stephanie would kill him if he let Seth and Dean leave the house without him. Quickly grabbing his car keys, Hunter rushed out of the house to go look for his twin sons. Unaware he was though that the twins hadn't actually left since Dean made Seth let him go and now were playing in their room after Seth had a tantrum on not leaving his twin behind.
(2015)
A little over a month after Wrestlemania 31, much had happened for the Helmsley family in that time. Seth had gotten a little more like a spoiled child with using his place in the Authority to have other interfere in his matches with the excuse that he wants to be a champion just like his dad. It got Hunter being a little more okay with his son doing what he wants. One upside had been Seth gotten much better control over his speed powers that his family was a little happier with. Still Seth and Roman liked to do promos together with the older loving getting the pouting look on Seth's face. Due to his strength, Roman loved to do matches against strong opponents and his favorite is Big Show since the giant man tested his strength. It also had brought Hunter and Roman closer with this one thing that they could bond over just the two of them. Roman had to show his Samoan heritage gotten the tribal tattoos like Dwyane and Usos have that he had going down his whole right arm like the fake tattoo had been. With Dean, the boy still kept himself covered up when not wrestling and continued working with Regal on his powers' control. He had gotten so much control in the month with actually able to go a whole match without get sucked into his opponents' memories or passing on one of his to them. It was the unity too that the brothers had that was making things so great for them each day.
Except a week ago, three new surprises came for the family with each boy getting a new extension to their powers. Roman had found himself working out in the gym when he clapped his hands after a good work out to create a shockwave that made some equipment topple over. Seth found himself able to phase through things without even having to be moving after going through a chair he had been sitting in. Dean during a nightmare had realized his powers extension was able to move things with his mind that at first freaked him out when he woke up to things floating around his bedroom. Luckily all three boys seemed to easily have control over the extensions and worked on them along with their original parts of their powers. It was the unity too that the brothers had that was making things so great for them each day.
"I'm going to kick your ass!" Roman's shout had his parents turning from where they had been watching Dean wrestle Harper in a street fight match.
"Have to catch me first." Seth smirked and then bolted out of sight and reach to the oldest including through a wall.
"What did Seth do now?" Hunter asked his oldest as they saw Dean and Harper fighting backstage.
"The skunk head let his dog go to the bathroom on my favorite shirt."
"Okay. I'll have a talk with him on keeping Kevin away from your stuff." Stephanie assured before she had to leave the promo office.
"Oh my god." Roman sounded in shock.
On the screen was Dean jumping through the open window of a car to maul Harper and then the car sped right out of the arena. This so wasn't good and Dean was no longer in his family's heads since he liked to have some alone time in certain matches. Hunter instructed his oldest to go get Kane and have him come to the office. As Hunter waited for Kane to arrive, he got a text from Stephanie wanting to know why their youngest son jumped into a moving car and now is missing. Finally Kane arrived and Hunter sent a quick text he'd handle it before putting his attention to the director of operations.
"Kane. Kane."
"You wanted to see me." Kane kind of had an idea on what the Game wanted him to do.
"Yeah. Listen, I need you to go find Harper and Ambrose. Track down where they went. I don't know those two crazy guys." Hunter really couldn't under how this even happened. "What are they gonna do in the streets of Chicago, right? Find them."
When Seth walked into the office, Hunter really didn't need his middle son causing issues when he now has one loose in the city possibly brawling with Harper inside a car. He gave a warning to both Seth and Kane, but mostly it was for Seth since the boy needed it. Right now Seth needed to act professional and not like a little kid expecting to get whatever he wanted from his parents. Of course Seth threw the fact Kane let Roman spear him into the man's face questioning why he let it happen.
"I was protecting you, Seth. It's not my fault that you can't take care of yourself." Kane snapped at the boy who tried to talk over him.
More words were exchanged between the two as Hunter just listened trying to not lose his temper over what has just transpired within the half hour. He has one son fighting a swamp guy in a car somewhere in Chicago, another acting like a spoiled brat, and his oldest being the only one actually not causing any real problems.
"You've been acting like nothing more than an ungrateful little punk ever since you got that title." Kane told Seth who made his pouting face over not like being told that.
"All right. Guys, calm down." Hunter instructed since this isn't what needs to be happening at this time.
After Hunter had taken Seth's side, Kane left the office to see if he could locate Ambrose and Harper before the end of Extreme Rules. Seth was proud at his dad taking his side and was about to leave when he felt the hand on his back grip his T-shirt to prevent him from doing just that.
"Not so fast, my architect."
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know where Dean is?" Hunter asked looking Seth in the eyes that were too much like Stephanie's own.
"No. He's not in my head or anything since he wanted us out during his match." Seth explained like his dad should have already known that.
"Okay. Also after tonight, you lose your phone privileges until Raw is over tomorrow night."
"What!" Seth exclaimed. "This is so not fair since I haven't done anything wrong!"
"Seth Rollins Helmsley-McMahon. I know you are lying on that since we both know Kane was right on how you've been acting. Now either except your punishment or we're going be having a new champion tonight since I'll tell Kane to not let you leave the cage."
"But dad-"
"No buts. Am I understood?"
"Yes." Seth sighed knowing he had no choice.
"Also go clean up after your dog since he's your responsibility."
"Wonderful. Just great. I get shit duty." Seth mumbled and realized it hadn't been in his head.
"Make that a week." Hunter then nudge his son out of the office. "Now I just have to locate Dean before the cops are involved."
The man called his son's cellphone in hopes that it might actually be on him and when it picked up, relief filled him. He began telling his son that he wanted him to get back to the arena right this second or else he'd be grounded.
"Dad?" Roman's voice came over.
"Rome, why are you answering Dean's phone?"
"I'm in the locker room and heard his phone vibrating. He hasn't put your number back in the phone yet after Finn sitting on it and deleting all his contacts."
"Great. Please let me know if he pops in your head at all and give him the message I just gave you."
"Will do."
A sigh left Hunter as he watched New Day just win their match and then they were being interviewed by Renee Young. Then a horn blaring interrupted the interview and the car Harper and Dean had been fighting inside of crashed into some trash cans. Out of the backseats came Harper, tumbling to the floor and Hunter groaned over what it meant with who was behind the wheel.
"You're still getting beat up." Woods teased at Luke with a laugh.
Next the camera showed Dean standing on top of the car's roof and the boy launched himself off to take New Day to the floor. The boy was then chasing after Harper again for Luke to go through the curtain and Dean disappeared to reappear with himself in the air tackling the man. Both of them finally got back into the ring and a Dirty Deeds on a pile of metal folding chairs secured Dean the victory. Though the boy only got a few minutes to celebrate since he got snatched off the apron by his dad to be thrown over his shoulder.
"Looks like Ambrose is in trouble with his father." Cole said shaking his head.
"Triple H needs to put his son in time out or something since that boy is a degenerate." JBL claimed for Jerry to laugh.
"Like father, like son."
"What is that supposed to mean?" JBL asked as Hunter carried Dean up the ramp still over his shoulder.
"Triple H is a founding member of DX. Remember all the crazy stuff he did."
"Whatever."
Once the father and son got backstage, Hunter continued down the hallways for a few minutes with Dean still over his shoulder. He then set the boy down outside the door of the family's locker room for Dean to turn about to head in when he received a hard swat on his rear end.
"Ow!"
"That's for what you just did. "Do you have any idea how worried I was about you, Dean Ambrose Helmsley-McMahon?" Hunter looked his son in the eyes. "It was stupid to jump into that car and not think of the possibilities of what could happen. What if it had been a trap to capture you or worse?"
"Dad, I'm-"
"No. I know you may have forgotten what's been done to you, but I haven't." Hunter needed his son to understand. "I can't get another phone call with you crying for me to help you or see the state that you were in when I got there."
Now Dean regretted jumping through that window and he looked down, hating that he had caused his dad so much worry. He really wished he had thought it over before doing what he did and wouldn't blame his dad for grounding him for a month or year even. Instead he got yanked into a hug with his dad careful of any exposed skin as a hand then went into his hair.
"I love you and your brothers more than anything. You three are my world since the days you were born. I can't lose you again." Hunter didn't realize he'd brushed his thumb on Dean's neck to transfer a memory.
Hunter with his hair a mess and sweat soaked stood in a gym punching with all his strength a bag that suddenly snapped off the chain to slam into a wall. Tears slid down the man's face as he sunk to his knees and broke down with pain and guilt over something. He couldn't even look at his wife without seeing the pain he caused her after what he'd done to their family. Never could he forgive himself for letting this happen to those he had promised to care for and protect.
Snapping out of the memory with no reaction for his dad to not notice, Dean couldn't believe what he'd seen. His dad had been suffering in pain over allowing something to happen, but Dean doesn't remember a time his parents hadn't seemed all close and loving. The boy stepped back once his dad released him to still be feeling the swirling emotions of guilt, anger, and heartache that were inside the memory. He went into the locker room to see Seth there with a pouting look clearly still upset at his dad taking away his phone privileges. Seth watched Dean slip his sweat jacket on after making it float over to him and put the sleeve's thumb holes on to basically have most of himself covered. Seth felt a little bad for his twin always feeling like he had to do that and decided to go as his twin didn't seem to be in the talking mood. The memory was starting fade in Dean's head, but left so many questions. He wished to know why his dad felt guilty or what it had to do with him and his brothers. For what felt like hours, Dean just sat on the bench thinking, but really not much time had passed. Enough time spent in the locker room, Dean left in search of Seth. Dean found his twin talking to J & J security while out in the ring was Roman wrestling Big Show. Only now the oldest boy had just speared Big Show through an announce table from running across the other.
"He doesn't know his own strength." Seth sighed as Dean took the spot to stand next to him.
"Yep." his twin agreed.
"Now he's lifting an announce table to put on top of the giant." Seth shook his head and then heard Roman's music play after the ref reached ten. "He buried Show to win."
Both waited by the curtain for Roman to come through and give his brothers a flash of deep sky blue eyes signaling his amusement at what happened in his match. Roman walked with them in the direction of their locker room for him to realize Dean hadn't reconnected their minds yet since getting back to the arena. Not going to mention it since he knew possibly their dad had punished Dean for leaving and didn't want to share what it was.
"Want to twin trick?" Seth asked Dean who shook his head.
"You okay?" Roman asked concerned that Luke had possibly done something to his baby brother.
"I'm fine. Just feel bad on how worried I made dad."
"Don't worry on it. He can be so overprotective sometimes." Seth said not noticing the frown deepening on his twin's face. "Now go change into my extra gear and help me out in the ring."
A no thanks came from Dean as he walked out of the locker room needing some time to himself. Roman shook his head at what Seth just had done and it confused the skunk haired boy on what his older brother was disappointed with him about now. Before the two brothers could talk, Seth knew it was time for his match and bolted out of the locker room. Snatching a change of clothes from his bag, Roman was about to change into the shorts and shirt when he heard the door open. The boy heard someone walk in to start searching through things and he turned to see Dean bent over Seth's bag.
"Sticking a stink bomb in there?" Roman asked.
"No. I think Seth took my glasses and just getting them back."
"That's odd." Roman said as he watched Dean continue to search through Seth's bag.
"Why is that?" Dean asked curious.
"Because you were wearing your glasses when you walked out before." Roman saw the younger tense up and then snatch the bag to try running. "Not happening."
One of Roman's hands grabbed the strap and gave a strong tug to yank the bag out of the fake Dean's hands. He watched the person look nervous and eyes kept going to the bag now in Roman's possession. In a blink, the fake Dean rushed forward to tackle him down to the floor. Strikes were thrown between them and Roman quickly got his knee up shoving the fake off him. Getting to his feet, Roman saw the fake's face get a liquid like look to it as they seemed to be thinking.
"Who are you?" Roman asked in a tone that sounded like his dad when wanting the truth from him or his brothers.
"Everyone. Anyone."
"Answer me." Roman ordered with a slight growl.
The fake just smirked for a second before rushing out of the room and Roman chased after through the hallways. None of his thoughts seemed to be going to Dean as the youngest must still not have reestablished their mental connection. On his own with catching the fake, Roman pushed himself to run as fast he could while not losing sight of his target. He saw the person turn a corner and luckily noticed the liquid like look on a Wade Barrett to know it was the fake. The two rushed through the hallways for them to end up in the storage room where they kept all crates and extra equipment. Roman took a deep breath as he tried to figure out where the fake had gone when he heard someone come up behind him.
"Hey Roman." Jimmy said with a worried look at his cousin. "I saw you rushing around in the hall and came to check on you. You okay?"
"Yeah. I was just handling someone trying to steal something from Seth's bag." Roman answered as he turned to walk past his cousin.
"Maybe security can help." Jimmy suggested about to turn around when a strong fist almost slammed into his jaw.
"Or I can just handle you myself." Roman said with deep sky blue eyes.
"Can't easily fool you, I see." the fake sounded impressed.
"I know my cousins and you clearly don't."
When Roman threw a second punch, he got his arm grabbed and the fake tossed him into the wall for him to prevent connecting his face with it by using his other hand to brace himself. He turned for a chain to wrap around his arms making him struggle to get free as the fake smirked at having the oldest boy trapped. The end of the chain was attached to a metal shelf cemented into the floor as Roman was prevented from using any form of his powers due to the restraint.
"I wonder if your brothers won't be so easily fooled." the fake said as their appearance changed from Jimmy to Roman.
He left the storage room with Roman still struggling to get free of the chains and made their way down the hallway. In the Authority's office, Hunter was looking at a photo of his family with guilt in his eyes. All three of his sons were smiling as they just finished celebrating the twin's ninth birthday. For over a year, his family didn't seem as happy after that day and he knew it was his fault for that happening.
"Thinking of the past isn't always wise."
"Get the hell out of here, Bischoff. You were told a long time ago to stay the hell away from WWE by Vince." Hunter didn't even look at the man.
"Yes, big, tough Vince did tell me to stay away, but let's just say I have some unfinished business to deal with tonight." Bischoff told him as he took a step closer to the Game and both then heard Seth's music playing. "Looks like one of your twins just won his match."
"Stay the hell away from my family!"
"Temper Hunter. I'd hate to see it cost you again." Bischoff warned with an amused look. "Last time I believe it cost you your sons."
"What do you want?" Hunter asked as his chair's arm crushed in his grip.
"You'll see very soon, but first we need all the invited guests." Bischoff said as he took a seat on the couch casually.
Just having gotten backstage after his match, Seth saw Roman waiting for him and wondered if he should bolt or not. His older brother hadn't exactly been pleased with him when he left the locker room for his match. Only something didn't seem right with how calm and relaxed his older brother was.
"Nice win."
"Thanks. Have you seen Dean?"
"No. He's got to be here though."
"Yeah." Seth nodded and he tried to figure out what didn't feel right.
As the two brothers walked down the hallway, Seth began taking his gloves off as the fake Roman slipped a syringe from his pants pocket. Slowly to keep the boy from noticing, he took a step behind him about to use the syringe when Dean's voice was heard. Then a pressure filled the fake's head as Dean stepped out from behind a corner with deep sky blue eyes.
"Rome?" Seth looked shocked at who he thought was his older brother.
"It's not Roman." Dean told his twin without breaking focus with his powers.
"Smart boy. Did you need to get in my head to find out?"
"No. I saw you earlier sneaking in as myself to the locker room."
"Dean, what is going on?" Seth asked wanting answers as the syringe floated sharp out of the fake's hand to smash into a wall.
"I don't know, but this fake is going to tell us." Dean slipped up one of his sleeves.
"Dean, it's dangerous." Seth sounded concerned.
"Doesn't matter. We need answers." Dean said and took a step forward.
"Touch me and your dear dad gets hurt."
That made Dean stop stepping closer and he can tell the fake isn't lying about somehow their dad getting hurt. He then stopped the pressure in the fake's head who shook it for a second before smirking to the twins.
"Now be good boys and follow me." the fake instructed for them to walk ahead of him through the hallways.
Soon they arrived at the storage room where Roman was still trapped by the chain and the twins went to move forward for the fake to order them not to. A meeting of eyes between Dean and Roman told the youngest what his brother wanted him to do. The mental connection reopened between the three for them to figure out what to do.
'The chain is too tough to break.' Roman informed the twins.
'We can't stay here. Dad, is possibly in danger.' Seth said to see Roman look down.
'Seth, take Dean and get yourselves out of here.' Roman ordered his little brother.
'No!' Dean snapped clearly not going to let the oldest get left behind.
'We have no other option. Now get out of here.' Roman looked the twins in the eyes.
"Get on your knees both of you." the fake ordered as two men came into the room. "Cuff the blonde streak one with the special ones designed just for him. The other gets the collar."
One man snapped a pair of cuffs on Seth's wrist and ankles making it hard for him to bolt with how they absorbed his speed. The other man gripped Dean's hair to tilt the boy's head back so his neck was exposed and a strange collar was snapped on his neck. A cry of pain came from Dean as the connection between him and his brothers became blocked and his powers suppressed.
"Hurts?" the fake asked Dean. "We know how to keep that mind of yours under control."
"What do you want with us?" Roman asked in anger at the fact they were hurting his baby brother.
"You're about to find out." the fake informed and gave a motion to the men.
From the appearance of Roman, the fake changed to that of Garrett Bischoff confusing the three boys since they still had no clue who he was. The men made the twins get to their feet and Roman was led by the chain as if it was leash in Garrett's hands. Now that Extreme Rules was over, there was no one around to see them and all the equipment would be taken down in the morning. Still up was the cage that had something attached to it and the boys were shoved inside to have the door locked on them. They saw their dad being led in by Eric Bischoff for Hunter's eyes to widen in fear and anger.
"If you have hurt them in-"
"Don't make any threats or they shall be hurt." Eric warned.
Hunter's eyes flash deep sky blue as he then looked to his sons with worry on what Bischoff wanted to do with them. The boys watched as Eric unfolded a chair and instructed their dad to sit in it before he put some zip ties around Hunter's wrist to retrained him behind his back. A glance then went to the boys as Eric took a step closer to the cage and Seth made a mistake when he touched it for a shock to hit him forcing him back in pain.
"No! Seth!" Hunter was scared for his middle son.
"Easy. Those little things on the cage are producing currents so the three of you will have to stay inside." Eric explained and then looked to his son. "Bring me the one with mental powers."
"On it." Garrett used a key to unlock the cage with the electric not effective there. "Come here, boy."
"No!" Seth shouted at him wanting Dean.
"Don't touch him!" Roman ordered as the man came in the cage.
He grabbed Dean by the hair to force him to walk out of the cage and the boy was forced to his knees on the steps. Eric grabbed Dean's hair from his son to be looking the boy in the eyes and saw so much of his father in him.
"This collar will be deactivated, but you are going to stay out of our minds." Eric told Dean and tugged the hair. "Am I clear?"
"Yes." Dean winced from the pain.
"Good boy. Now Hunter, I think it's time your sons find out exactly why they were separated years ago." Eric then gave a nod to his son who pressed something on a remote.
A video began playing on the big screen and the boys saw it was of them when they were little kids. Only none of them could remember what day it was from and then they saw something horrible.
"Dean!" a young Seth yelled as he bolted towards his twin.
"Stay back!" a man ordered as Dean was being restrained by a second.
Vince held Seth close to him as Dwayne was doing the same with Roman to keep the two boys back from the men. Both saw Hunter standing a few feet away with clear guilt on his face at what was happening. He couldn't look at his two older sons begging for him to stop the men from taking the youngest.
"Dad!" Dean cried while reaching a hand out with coughs shaking through him too.
"Please don't." Hunter whispered in a hurt tone.
"Your son is too uncontrollable. He needs to be kept locked away for others' safety." a man told Hunter. "Now get him in the van."
"Dad! Help me! Please don't let them take me!" Dean continued to cry and cough as tears tracks ran down his face. "I'm sorry."
"Enough!" Hunter couldn't take hearing the video anymore.
"You just stood there. Dean's powers were out of control and you were angry over that so had him be locked away." Eric could tell he was getting to the Game. "He was a scared little kid and you locked him in a mental asylum for over a year."
"Stop it!" Hunter snapped. "I had no choice, but to let them take him."
"It was your choice though to send your two other sons away, but not have them be together so they couldn't become strong enough to break the youngest out. You knew together your sons' powers were dangerous and made them unstoppable." Eric grabbed Hunter's face to be looking him in the eyes. "Look at your sons and tell me if they still hold the same view of you now after hearing what you did."
The Game looked at his three sons with Seth and Roman in shock as they stood still restrained in the cage, but the worst to look at was Dean who closed his eyes unable to look at his dad. Seeing that hurt Hunter so bad since all he's ever wanted was to keep his sons safe and he knew he failed that day when Dean was taken, but tried so hard once the boys were back together to do that. He saw Dean's hands clenching into fist as tears slipped off his chin to land on the steps he's kneeled on. No voice was in his head and Hunter knew why Bischoff had turned off the collar so that Dean's powers would go out of control on his dad. Only they didn't and that seemed to anger the man who grabbed the boy's arm to toss him back in the cage slamming the door shut. Garrett pressed the button on the remote to turn the collar back on and it was like Dean just didn't want to use his powers as no cry came from him at them restrained.
"How does it feel to know you lost your sons again?" Eric asked Hunter with an amused tone. "Perhaps we should locate your dear, lovely wife to see if she ever did truly forgive you."
"You leave my wife alone." Hunter ordered for a punch to connect with his stomach.
"I don't do what you say anymore. Now let's hope Princess Stephanie comes nicely."
At hearing someone walking down the ramp, Eric turned to see one of his employees alone with a distant look in his eyes. He then began trying to attack Eric who knew right away Stephanie had used her powers on him. Eric attempted to avoid each hit causing him to be distracted as Stephanie rushed in from the seats to start trying to get her husband free.
"Get the boys." Hunter told her in a whisper.
"Okay." she agreed and moved over to the cage.
Stephanie knew she could not touch the cage unless she wanted herself to be shocked and then thought of a different way to get them out. Without being caught, she slipped underneath the ring about to put a hole through the mat when her leg was snatched to drag her out.
"Hello there, Stephanie. Long time no see since your old man fired me." Eric said and she just kicked him in the leg to knock him away.
"You forget I've learned a few things from my own wrestling career." Stephanie spun to deliver a knee into his face happy to see his mouth now was bleeding. "Now release my sons and husband or else getting fired been the best thing to happen to you."
"I'm so afraid." Eric laughed and then lunged for her.
Like before Stephanie used moves she learned from both her husband and father to keep Bischoff from touching her. She landed a superkick taught to her by Shawn to force him back into a barricade and he seemed to be hurt by it. Again she went to kick him only to have her leg snatched and she was slammed back first into the barricade to be dazed.
"Mom!" Roman and Seth yelled in complete worry for her.
"Steph." Hunter couldn't get the ties off as he wanted to save his wife.
"Please get up." Seth begged as he feared her getting hurt.
"Leave her alone!" Roman ordered as his eyes changed to deep sky blue.
At seeing Bischoff about to hurt his mom, he slammed his foot down onto the mat for a shockwave to come off and begin shaking the floor. It caused Bischoff to be unbalanced and the man's son fell for him to accidently press a button on the remote that turned off the devices.
"Now's our chance." Roman told Seth who nodded.
He made his wrist shake for them to phase through the cuffs along with the same on his ankles. Together Roman and Seth climbed the cage to the top when they saw Dean hadn't followed. Before they could call to him, they saw Garrett about to turn the devices back on and knew they had to get off the cage. A launch from Roman had the boy landing in a crouch with him slamming a punch in the floor making a shockwave happen to crash into some of Bischoff's men. Seth bolted at some other men connecting strikes that were a blur to the men's eyes before they all laid out cold on the floor.
"New powers." Eric said as he watched Roman and Seth look to ready to defend their mom.
"And we know how to use them to kick your ass." Seth smirked.
"We'll see about that." Eric looked to his son who rushed for the boys.
A roll came from Seth who then tried a sling blade to be tossed a few feet by Garrett and Roman went for a superman punch to get ducked. Together the boys fought against the two Bischoffs and any of their employees who tried to join them. Inside the cage, Dean sat on the mat with closed eyes as he thought of every time he put his trust in his dad and believed him to be the one person who would always be there to help him. Now he didn't know what to think about his dad or if he could ever see him as his hero again.
"Dad!"
"Please don't."
"I'm sorry."
"Dean!"
"Dad, I'm sorry."
"I love you and your brothers more than anything. You three are my world since the days you were born. I can't lose you again."
The memories hurt so much and them being his own meant he couldn't file them away to escape them. He looked at his dad to see him still restrained in the chair and their eyes met for something to just snap inside Dean. Light blue eyes changed to dark sky blue before a cry left the boy from the collar sending shocks into him. Only those did not stop him and the cage began to shake crazily to go up a little bit. Blood slid from Dean's nose as his focus then went on the zip ties around his dad's wrist to have them begin straining from the mental pull. Suddenly the ties snapped and Hunter moved from the chair as Dean fell on his stomach still trapped in the cage.
"Dean!" Hunter's voice was full of concern as he without any care of his own safety punched the devices on the cage door before ripping it off.
He rushed inside to his youngest son's side and broke the collar off him for a surge of thoughts to fill his head. The boy's powers now no longer restrained allowed him to absorb some strength from his dad who hated seeing him hurt. Dean didn't look at his dad as he pushed himself to his feet still a little out as Garrett Bischoff rushed in to try attacking the boy. Only a strong snatch of his shirt had him slammed into the electric cage wall by Hunter after everything the young Bischoff had helped his father do. After a few seconds, Hunter released Garrett to watch him fall to the mat out cold and Dean saw Seth and Roman chasing after a fleeing Eric.
"Stop." Dean ordered with his powers.
Bischoff was unable to resist as he stood unmoving with the older boys stepping closer and Dean leaving the cage. Deep sky blue eyes in three pairs looked at the man who seemed afraid of the boys.
"I just revealed the truth to you three. It's your father who should feel the true power of the hounds, not me."
"You harmed us." Roman said as he grabbed the man by the shirt with barely restrained strength the could easily tear the fabric.
"Time we paid you back first." Seth bolted to put the cuffs on Eric's hands and ankles.
"We know just how to do that." Dean slid one of his sleeves off his hand to then set it on Bischoff's face.
Bischoff stood with a smirk as he walked towards a mental asylum to change his form to that of Hunter's before entering. He began talking to some of the men who ran the asylum telling them how uncontrolled Dean was and how he wanted for others safety, the boy to be locked up.
"Our dad didn't send Dean away." Seth had the memory shared with himself and Roman.
"You made it appear with your own powers that he demanded what happened." Roman looked enraged. "Tell us the truth. Why did our dad not use his powers to stop the men?"
"They told him that if he tried to stop them, they'd just kill his son instead of keeping him locked up. I believed your brother would be locked up for the rest of his life to cause your dad pain, but over a year after, he, Michaels, your mom, and Dwayne broke Dean out."
"I want you to leave here. Never come near our family again without permission from someone in it." Dean ordered with his powers. "If you ever come near us or anyone we care about again, you'll be very sorry."
Backing up his claim, Dean made the chair his dad once sat in begin to float and then slam right into the cell making it break. Fear gripped the man at the full power of the brothers and quickly rushed out at a stumbling pace from the cuffs. Hunter kneeled beside his downed wife checking on her as she watched the boys with worry and relief. She saw the three turn to them and Hunter looked down in guilt. Before either of the two knew it, their sons were hugging them tight and both returned them with relief. Together they shall get though whatever comes for their family.
Eric Bischoff walked up to a car and got in the passenger's seat without a look to the person in the backseat. He could hear the person shift in the back as if they were leaning themselves forward.
"I thought you were going to rip them apart." Jason Jordan said clearly not pleased.
"I tried to do that with making the three think their dad had hurt them, but the youngest got the truth with his memories absorption powers."
"You wanted the revenge Hunter took from you when he got Dean back and I gave you a chance at it. Instead of succeeding, you fail and I don't like failures. Stay far away from WWE and I'll get someone else to do what you couldn't." Jason told the man and then got out of the car.
Thinking Bischoff would actually do something right in causing Dean pain had been a mistake, but Jason knew some others who could put the cracks in the family that he wants. All he needs to do is make a few phone calls and his plans of years' work can keep moving forward like he wants.
