Chapter 6 - War


Fans in the arena for Raw Is War were shaking up the building with all of their noise. There were a load of Undertaker signs in the arena paying tribute to the Dead Man, there were lots of signs insulting the new faction of McMahon, Stiner, Austin and Helmsley. There were a load of Rock and Kane signs in the arena. Everyone was fully prepared for an explosive episode of Raw.

'No Chance' could be heard in the Arena as Vince McMahon, Austin and Triple H. Boo's filled the arena as fans began to throw junk at the trio. They all smiled, loving the attention. They entered the ring and walked around, with Austin holding up the WWF Title belt.

Triple H glanced at Austin, still a bit angered that the Undertaker was able to beat him before he could take the title from Austin. 'That title is mine...not yours...mine.' He thought, looking at the title belt. He had lost the Intercontinental belt a long time ago, but it didn't matter to him that much. All that mattered was the WWF Championship which he never really lost. He looked at McMahon, sneering to himself. It didn't really matter though. Soon he would be through with McMahon and Austin and Stiner.

McMahon picked up the microphone and smiled to himself, looking over the entire crowd. This was a great day. The Undertaker was out of his way for good. He was finished. Foley and the Rock would be next. Finished. Out of his way. He would be in control again. And then he would destroy Shane and the WCW. No one could stand in his way anymore. Especially with Austin and Triple H on his side.

"Before I begin, I would like to introduce you to the newest member of the World Wrestling Federation. A former World Wrestling Federation Champion, he and these men in the ring are now fameous. They will all be known as the people who ended the career of the Undertaker. Please welcome, Scott Stiner." He said as the crowd began to boo even louder.

The sound of sirens began to fill the arena as the muscle bound man entered the walkway, chain mail on his head, lead pipe in his hand. He smirked as he entered to the sound of boo's. He had enjoyed crippling the Undertaker. The man had humiliated him on the first night of Nitro. No one did that to Scott Stiner. Not Booker T, not Sting, not even a has been like the Undertaker. No one.

He entered the ring, flexing his muslces and kissing them. He yelled at the crowd and continued to flex his muscles. Austin was impressed by the attitude on this man. Triple H hated him. He was too much of a show off in Triple H's opinion.

McMahon spoke into the microphone again. "As you can see, we have the three greatest superstars in the ring. Last night...we made history here in the World Wrestling Federation. We destroyed the Undertaker, something that no one has been able to do in his 'decade of destruction'." The crowd began to chant 'asshole' and McMahon seemed to get very pissed off. "Don't call me that dammit!" The crowd began to chant it more and he began to get even more frustrated. "STOP THAT! I'M VINCE MCMAHON DAMMIT!!!!"

Suddenly the countdown to Y2J could be heard on the titantron, and fireworks began to go off. The theme of the lionheart, Chris Jericho, could be heard blaring throught the arena. He stood by the Titantron, the crowd giving him a very loud ovation. He smiled and looked at McMahon, holding the microphone to his mouth. "With all due respect, will you PLEASE...JUST SHUT THE HELL UP!!!" The crowd went wild. "I'm very sure that people in the locker room are just as fed up as I am about your bullshit power groups and your factions. But that's not why I'm here. I'm here to for my shot. I want my shot at Austin's title...and I want it, tonight!" The crowd laughed and McMahon shook his head.

"I'm sorry Jericho, but you aren't the number 1 contender." McMahon spoke. "But I'm sure one of these men will be happy to kick your ass." He laughed.

Then the speakers began to blare again with the Rock's theme song. He walked besides Chris Jericho and nodded to him. He had a microphone of his own in his hand and he intended to use it. He spoke into the microphone. "Last night at Summerslam, the Rock saw something different than what you saw McMahon. The Rock did not see a successful title defence by Stone Cold Steve Austin. The Rock did not see the forming of a powerful new faction. What he saw, was the biggest group of cowardly pussy's the Rock has ever seen!" He then walked closer towards the ring, with Jericho right behind him. "Now the Rock was never a friend to the Undertaker, and the Rock never liked the Undertaker, but the Rock always RESPECTED the Undertaker. And what you did to him last night was the only way you guys could beat him. And now the Rock and Chris Jericho are going to come into that ring and layeth the smackethdown on your candy asses!!!"

Suddenly the sound of car wreck could be heard throught the arena and Mick Foley appeared by the titantron to a very loud ovation. He walked right towards the Rock and Chris Jericho. He smiled. "Well Vince, it seems you have it all figured out. You come back, cripple the Undertaker and think you can get away with it. You have this idea that you four can get away with everything around here. Well I have another thing for you. Because of your actions...I am stripping Stone Cold Steve Austin of the WWF Title."

Austin spit in the ring and tried to run towards Foley while Triple H and Stiner held him back. He was furious. He couldn't lose the WWF title like this.

Foley smiled. "Now, as for you McMahon, I don't know what kind of game you are going to try to play, but I am the one in charge here. And guess what?" Foley laughed. "Because of your actions, you are going to be in a steel cage match tonight against an opponent of my choosing."

McMahon protested. "You can't do this to me! I'm not a wrestler! I'm Vince McMahon dammit!!!"

Foley smiled and held up a contract. "Well you know those contracts your wife and I signed last year? Here's another one. It specifically states that in the event that I get fired and manage to become commissioner, I can book you in any match I want." He laughed. "Oh yes, and if you think that's harsh, wait until you hear this...if anyone interferes in this match, you will be kicked out of your own federation."

"Tonight, Jericho will fight against...Triple H in a no disqualification match. Austin, you will fight the Rock in a no dq match also. And if there is any interference, you will all be kicked out. And Stiner, to welcome you into the World Wrestling Federation, you will be in a handicap match against the Acolytes. Have a nice..."

But before he could finish Kane's pyro's went off, only they were louder than ever. Kane emerged from the titantron with a machete in his hand. He walked towards the ring, his attention on the three men in the ring. He couldn't contain his anger, he couldn't contain his hatred.

After the other night, Kane plotted his revenge against the three in the ring. It didn't even matter to him anymore about the World Wrestling Federation. The other night, Kane realized just how much his brother's legacy actually ment to him. Kane didn't bother going to the hospital. He and the Undertaker didn't need to spew that sentimental crap. Instead, Kane would honor him.

He pushed past Jericho and the Rock as they tried to restrain him, Foley got in it too.

"Kane let it go man, you'll get them later. It's not worth it!" Yelled Jericho as he tried to hold Kane back, Foley and the Rock both tried to say the same kind of things to him, but he didn't listen. He pushed them all off of him and then ran into the ring. McMahon and the others ran quickly out of the ring and then into the crowd, except for Stiner. Who tried to nail Kane with the lead pipe. Kane blocked the lead pipe with his machete and then headbutted the man. Kane dropped the machete and began to repeatedly pound on Stiner, who tried to fight back, but was no match for Kane's pure fury. He then threw Stiner out of the ring and onto the floor. He grabbed the Machete and exited the ring, stalking towards him. However, Stiner ran out into the crowd.

Kane yelled in fury and threw the machete down onto the ground and grabbed a microphone. He entered the ring and spoke.

"Triple H...Austin...McMahon...Stiner. Enjoy these next few days. They will be your last." He then threw the microphone down and fire exploded from each corner, with much more fury. He exited the ring and looked at Foley, the Rock and Chris Jericho. "And if any of you get in my way, you will be eliminated." He then walked towards the titantron towards the back.

Foley looked at the Rock and shook his head. "I had a feeling this would happen."


*********

McMahon and Stiner met in their personal locker room, Stiner yelling at McMahon. "You never told me the Undertaker had a psycopath for a brother! What the fuck are we going to do now?"

"Calm down Stiner, just calm down." He sighed. "We can deal with Kane later. Right now you have to deal with your match against the Acolytes." McMahon looked towards the closet in the locker room, opening it and pulling out a cell phone. "Here, I want you to call this number after your match with the Acolytes."

Stiner nodded and left the locker room. McMahon sat in a chair and shook his head. This wasn't turning out the way he planned. But he would soon get the upper hand. He then heard a knock on his door. "Come in."

Suddenly his door was smashed to bits as a man was thrown through the door. McMahon dove for cover and then looked on the ground, seeing the beaten and bloody body of William Regal, who had one of his arms broken. He looked into the door way opening, seeing the big red machine, Kane.

Kane looked at McMahon, hate filling his eyes. McMahon, who had manipulated him several times in the past. He was the man who was responsible for half of his pain here in the World Wrestling Federation. He had harmed several other superstars and made their lives a living hell.

Kane walked closer to him and looked down at him. McMahon spoke to him.

"Now hold on, just hold on a second there Kane. Now I know you are angry. I can tell. But listen, just listen for a second dammit!" Kane walked even closer to him, looking down at him. "Look, I can give you anything you want Kane. I can make you the new champion. With my help, and your fury, we can take the entire World Wrestling Federation. We can take out any of those who have angered you over the last few years. Anything you want can be yours. With your brother out of the way you are the most powerful man in the WWF. I did it for you dammit! Look at what you did to Kurt Angle. Now if you did that to the Rock or Chris Jericho, you would be the top man. No one could stop you. No one can stop you now Kane. Your brother was just holding your back. This is your chance Kane, your chance to prove to the world that you are more than just the little brother of the Undertaker." Kane continued looking down at him. McMahon extended his hand. "What do you say?"

Kane grabbed McMahon by the throat and lifted him high above his head. Kane stared right into his eyes and spoke the only necessary words. "I'll save you for last." He then dropped McMahon and left the locker room.

McMahon put his hand to his own throat and massaged it, looking at Kane. There was no way he was going to be able to take out Kane alone. He would have to get Hunter and Austin and Stiner to ambush him soon. He looked at Regal and sighed. "GET A MEDIC OVER HERE DAMMIT!!!"

**********

Kane entered the locker room and opened his locker, he felt a tap on his shoulder and he turned around to see Chyna. He growled at her, she seemed concerned, but he didn't care. "What do you want?"

Chyna shook her head. "Kane, I can't pretend to know what you are going through. But listen, the Undertaker is my friend too...and I want in on this."

Kane just looked at her and shook his head. "No."

She sighed. She'd get a piece of them all anyway. "Fine...I guess all I can say now is, good luck." She extended her hand and Kane looked at her. He just nodded, not accepting the hand. "Thanks."

He left the locker room, looking for Foley.

**********

Foley was in his locker room on the phone when he saw Kane come in. "Okay I'll let you go now." He hung up the phone and smiled. "Saw what you did to Regal, and I'm not going to punish you for it. He deserved it after hitting me with the chair anyway. What's up?"

Kane leaned forward on the table and looked into Foley's eyes. "I want Stiner."

Foley looked at him and nodded. "Kane, I'm not too big on vengence trips. You know that. However, for 'taker, I'm going to let you loose. From now on, every match you are in that involves those guys will have no disqualifications."

Kane shook his head. "I want Stiner in a match of my choosing for Smackdown."

Foley looked up at Kane, wondering what was going through the mind of the big red machine right now. He sighed and looked at him. "You aren't even going to go for the title yet?"

Kane smiled under his mask. "It will still be here."

Foley nodded and began to write some things down. "Okay, on the condition that you win your match tonight, you can choose a match between you and Stiner, but it will have to wait for No Mercy. And after tonight, I want you to take a week off to visit your brother."

Kane shook his head. "no."

Foley looked up at him and stood, staring straight into his eyes. "Kane, it's either that or lose your number one contendership status. You are going to go to the hospital and you are going to settle things with the Undertaker. And then, at No Mercy, you will take on Stiner in a match of your choosing. Agreed?"

Kane looked at him, Foley had always wanted to see Kane and Undertaker get along. Kane just really didn't feel he could handle talking to the Undertaker right now. He couldn't stand seeing his brother crippled. The thought of seeing him in a wheelchair was unbearable. But, he needed his vengence, and he would see about what kind of revenge the Undertaker would be looking for. "Agreed."

Foley looked at him. "And what kind of match to you want with Stiner?"

Kane stood up and walked towards the exit. "No interference, Last Man Standing match."

*************

McMahon walked towards the ring in his wrestling gear, looking around the arena as everyone booed him. How could Foley do this to him? He was the man responsible for creating the World Wrestling Federation. Not a wrestler. Sure he entered the ring when it suited him but why did Foley do this to him?

He entered the steel cage, looking it up and down. He gulped a bit as he entered the ring. Jericho had defeated Triple H tonight, but Austin managed to beat the Rock after accidently knocking out the referee. Stiner was beaten by the Acolytes, but he managed to put up a great fight. But McMahon had figured a way to get out of the match. As soon as it started, just get the hell out of there. How hard could it be?

Suddenly, the arena began to get dark, and then fire began to erupt from all four ringposts all around McMahon, scaring the living shit out of him. Then he saw red light filling the arena and more pyro's going off, and then he saw Kane walking towards him. McMahon fell to his knees and began to beg for mercy as he saw Kane coming towards him. He couldn't go out like this.

Kane entered the cage, savoring every moment of this. He watched McMahon beg, cry, wimper. He was going to really enjoy this. He extended his hand to McMahon. He nodded to McMahon and the crowd began to get confused. McMahon accepted it and shook his hand, smiling as he stood up. Kane then spoke. "Remember when I said I was going to save you for last?"

McMahon nodded and smiled, a bit relieved he wasn't about to get destroyed by Kane. "Yes Kane, I remember."

"I lied." He then started to crush McMahon's hand with his own, making him fall on his knee's and scream in pain. Kane then let go of the hand and began to repeatedly pound on McMahon's head. After what seemed like a minute, he picked McMahon up and grabbed him by the back of the head, throwing his head straight into the cage. McMahon bounced off the cage, his face cut wide open. Kane then threw him into the cage again, his head bouncing off the steel. Kane then picked him up, high above his head, and threw him into the cage again, causing the metal structure to dent and bend.

McMahon was covered in his own blood, cuts forming all around his head. He whined and begged for mercy, not wanting to be destroyed by Kane. Kane didn't listen. McMahon felt Kane's hand at his throat, and felt himself being lifted high into the air. Then he was thrown into the cage again.

Kane smiled as McMahon's body slammed into the cage again, the back of his head being split open by the steel. Kane then picked him up and chokeslammed him. He then picked him up and tombstoned him onto the mat. McMahon's blood was now all over the ring, and Kane was covered in it. And he loved it.

Kane then smiled and picked him up and threw him onto the top ledge of the cage, his body hanging on the top of it. Kane then climbed the cage and stood on the top of it. He looked down at McMahon who was still conscious. He smiled under the mask. "This is for my brother you sorry bastard." He picked him up and but his head between his legs. He then put McMahon in the powerbomb position, and then lifted him high above his head in the position for the Last Ride. He then jumped off the top of the cage, using the Last Ride powerbomb onto the mat. McMahon's body fell right through the mat due to the force of the powerbomb, smashing the ring and creating a big hole in the center.

Kane then simply walked out of the cage, opening the door and exiting. He looked at the crowd as he recieved a standing ovation. This was just the beginning. He raised his arms above his head and borught them down, fire began toexplode from the 4 ringposts and from the top of the steel cage. Kane then walked towards the titantron, and then stopped, and with his back turned to the fans, raised his right arm in victory to honor his brother.

1 down, 3 to go.
