Chapter 9- A trap of our own- Glen

In recent weeks, Vince allowed Kratos and the family to stay with us back stage, I told him of a stalker coming after my family and he agreed to keep an eye on them. When I was on Raw one faithful night. I was cutting a promo in the ring, as Kratos came flying through the screen! I just caught him as he nearly hit the ring. Standing on the ramp was Aries, armed to the teeth with his blades. I stood prepared for the attack.

"Nice little plan you had there mortal. But not good enough!" He pulled his blades as the fans ducked and covered. If Matt had a plan… now would be the time to do it! Yet of all people to show up, it was the Deadman… Undertaker to be more specific.

He stood at the top of the ramp, with something behind his back. I couldn't make out what it was, yet Aries' attention soon turned to him. "What's this? A mortal? Hmmm, potential in this one" he muttered aloud. It was then Kratos realized the whole reason why Aries was here. He didn't want Kratos' old body… he wanted a new one… One of ours!

As he inched closer and closer to Taker, I grew worried. Should I strike him down? But if I do, he could hit Mark! Taker kept giving me the 'back off glare' he knew what he was doing… I hope.

Aries stood a mire foot from the Deadman, before he realized something was behind him. "What do you have there mortal?" he asked.

Taker pulled out a scythe… one glowing an odd ora. "Something I borrowed" The movement was so flawless and fluid, Aries was cut in half and vanished in smoldering black smoke!

Kratos and I stared at Taker for the longest time, not knowing what to make of this until he called us to the back. Once we got there, Matt was the first one to explain what occurred. "Ok, I can explain…. Sort of. When at the loom chamber we met this other guy who controls the place now."

"Death" Taker muttered.

"Death?" I asked.

"Yeah, who else carries a scythe around? The only thing that could bring down a fallen god or a fallen god in a warrior's body" he explained, as the weapon vanished from his hands.

"Anyway, what happen was since Aries had caused Death such a headache he wanted to be sure that Aries could never come back, since the fallen god of war knew what Death looked like, he didn't know a mortal could also wield the weapon of the grim reaper" Matt continued.

"Uh huh… so have we solved this… immortal problem yet?" I asked.

Matt made a weird face. "Uh… not really… no" he explained since the thread had been put on Kratos' and my thread of fate, it couldn't be removed. "Also the reaper seems to like you, you saved him a lot of work you do know that?"

"I am so confused" I muttered.

"I dealt with stranger things and I too am confused!" Kratos announced.

"Well, let me put it this way…" Taker grabbed the closest object and smashed it across my back. Nothing! I felt nothing!

"What did you use?!" I demanded of him.

"Sledgehammer" he replied bluntly.

This was going to take some getting use to! Just then Vince McMahon stormed out of his office, he stuttered on his words before he turned to Kratos. "Why do I have the feeling this involves you in some way or form?" he asked of him.

Kratos only shrugged his shoulders and offered the most innocent smile he could muster. I on the other hand had a new dilemma, immortality. Something tell me this is going to be a lot more than what I bargained for!

The End for now!
