Chapter Three
* As I have sat here for the last couple of hours watching over my brother as he finally sleeps with his head in my lap. A sleep that I hoped would be peaceful but isn't as it is still full of demons and monsters for him. I come to realize that no matter how hard I tried to keep this darkness from him that it was always meant to be. I have let my mind wander to the darkness trying to figure out what I did wrong? Or maybe what I should have done differently? How I could have protected him differently? When it finally comes to me that there was nothing that I could have done for it has finally sunken into my thick skull that it was there not to claim Kane but to draw me back in to it's folds. It folds of evil so that it could finish the job it started so long ago when I was so young. Sure it wanted Kane too but it was there for me because it knew that I would come once more to try and save him. Just like I knew that the evil would come for me once more to see if it could turn me so that I would lead the others. For what choices did I have? Could I have turned my back on him? Let it drive him in to the darkness and madness till he finally became the monster he could be. No I couldn't do that because that was never even a choice and now I know that the darkness knew that before even I did. For Kane is just about the only other person that I have ever loved. Other then them when I was small. Too young to know just how evil that they truly were. That evil that our parents where made of I can tell still runs through both Kane and myself. Even though his good heart has kept it at bay for so long along with my will power to stay on the right side. I think some where in the back of our minds we knew that we would be here again one day. So now the trouble is what do we do to stop it? Is it even worth the trouble this time? I know that I am tried for since we won so many years ago I knew that to fight the darkness and evil was the right thing to do. But here I sit in my brother's bedroom holding his head in my lap and willing the darkness to just take us both and end this battle before it even starts. A battle that I'm not even sure that we can win... FUCK... Oh shit I guess that I must have said that out loud because Kane just almost jumped out of my arms. He sits up and looks me in the face almost as if he is searching for some type of answer. So what can I do but say the two words that I seem to always be saying to him. Not that I don't mean them when I say them it just that well I'm not even sure if he believes me. *
Taker : Sorry Bro.
* And now that I have said them to him once more he say's the three words that he all ways seems to say also. *
Kane : It's all right.
* It seems at time that those are the only words that we ever say to each other. I mean that sure we say more then that but some how we always seem to end back up on those words. They do always seem to be there too just like old friends. We never seem to say what we really want to say to each other. I mean it's not that he doesn't already know in his heart that I love him but damn it I just can't seem to say it to him. I remember a time when he could say it to me but then I would just roll my eyes and walk away from him so after awhile he too just quit saying it. I mean I do know that he loves me but I guess that I miss him saying it too. Dumb I know and because of me that he has stopped saying it out loud. And now that we once again will be facing the darkness I need to hear it even more then I ever did. I also need to say it but ...Crazy! But then I guess that is just the way that it was meant to be too. So now I look into his eyes and can tell that he isn't sure weather to lay back down or weather to just remove him self to the other side of the bed and away from me. I also know that I really need to go down and talk to Vince who I can feel is prancing up a storm down in the front room. Hell Vince will just have to wait till morning to talk. Which I do realize is just a few hours away if even that. But with just one quick look in to Kanes face and I can tell that the evil is once again already trying to take over his mind so that it can drive him back into the darkness. Back to his fears and his nightmares is where this evil wants him. I won't leave him now because I know if I do then the darkness will take a little more of him. So for now I quickly reach out and pull my brother once more closer to me before he can move away. But this time he lay's his head on my chest just above where my heart beats. And as I wrap my arms around him to hold him tightly I do something that I haven't done in more years then I can count. I whisper to him... *
Taker : Kane I love you Bro and I'm here for you all ways.
* Damn I guess that I must have been holding my breath because all of a sudden I feel as if I can't breath. But Kane... Well what can I say he is still my little brother? And he always seems to know what it is that I am in need of too. Because he responds just the way that my mind... no I mean my heart was hoping he would. *
Kane : I love you too Bro.
* Then as he wraps his arms around my waist he takes a deep breath and relaxes starting to drift back to sleep but a peaceful one I can sense. Just before he is out he talks once more and damn nears makes me fall off the bed. Because once again I was thinking the same thing at the same time that he said it. Hell I was even thinking the exact same words. *
Kane & Taker : Evil you may have come for the Brothers of Destruction thinking that you could take us easily but only in hell in the last fight will you be able to take us. And Evil even then not without the fight of your life.
* I can't help it I laugh as if the darkness has claimed my soul. I laugh with a maddening laugh that if they can hear me down stairs will surely make them think that I too am crossing over to the side of evil. Kane glances up and then joins in the laughter as once again he knows what is in my mind as well as I know what is in his. Because of the bonds that even the most evil form of darkness can not break. After our laugh he laid his head back down and is asleep in a peaceful dreamless sleep like he hasn't had since Vince called the monster back. I know that at least for the next couple of hours he will get the much needed rest that he needs. I lean back and know that I too will be asleep shortly myself. And that for the first time in weeks my sleep will also be peaceful and dreamless. Something I too haven't had since the darkness has called my brother back to its side. For see he isn't the only one that the darkness has been calling in the night. I figure that when I wake up I will talk to Vince even though he will be pissed. And then with Kane we will figure out which of our friends to go to for help because I do know that without some of our friends we will never beat the darkness once again. I just hope that they are willing to help and that they are strong enough to fight the darkness once more too. Because if not then the WWE and all of it's wrestlers might find themselves in Hell soon. *
