Chapter 8- The challenge begins- Kane

Wrestlemaina of all places… don't ask me why, it was McMahon's idea. He wanted to televise this whole thing to the world at Wrestlemaina. I had talked to Sub-Zero about it, surprisingly enough. He was ok with it. It was about a week before Wrestlemaina when I talked to Randy, who just so happened to be calm and collected.

"Orton" I called out to him. He was just practicing some of his new moves it one of the locker rooms. He stopped and gives me his full attention. "Everything cool?" I asked him.

He nodded to me. "Fantastic Kane. I am feeling wonderful"

I could see that. Orton had this 'I got a plan' idea on his face. "You're plotting something aren't you?"

Randy smirked as he cleared the sweat from his face on a towel. "What makes you say that? Can you read minds now?"

"I can, yet I prefer not to. It's hard to stop. But that's not the point. I want to be sure you're ok with this. Before you said you weren't ready. Now. You look like you are. What gives?" I asked of him.

Orton looked to me as he tried to figure out the words, when they came to mind he looked me in the eyes. "It was what Taker told me, and I have figured out something about myself as well. But the question I am dealing with at the moment is how do I go about doing what needs to be done. The Lin Kuei are tough no doubt, but I have great confidence in myself I will win… you know I will right?" he asked with a grin.

"With what your eyes are telling me… you have that look" I smirked knowing something was afoot.

"Trust me Kane, this will make everyone happy!" he grinned. I left Orton; Kahn had been training the kid non-stop. As for me… I had to be sure that everything was according to the rules of this challenge. I am the judge of it, since Dragons are to be leaders and carry out justice. John, Dave, Taker, Sara and Rob will be too. We are on different parts of the island, and we will survey everything that happens in that time frame… question is. Will we be ready to see what happens to Randy?

Wrestlemaina

The Island would be the battleground. I was forced to bring the Coach with me for interviews and what not. I wonder if Vince knew that nothing worked on this island? Well, little did I know. Kahn let a signal go through so the people at home can watch the whole thing. He's gotten really good with technology ever since he came here, he has tripped video cameras all over the island that would be trigger by soul energy.

"How in God's name did you do that?" Taker demanded as we were waiting for the Lin Kuei. Shao explained he had too much free time on his hands so he developed a soul tracer.

Sara rolled her eyes. I was more focused on Orton who was wearing Scorpion's armor… for perhaps the last time.

The Lin Kuei arrived shortly afterwards, led my Sub-Zero. He stood before his chosen warriors who all had a look of greed and vengeance towards Randy. "I give you my chosen participants Kane. Each as a power of their own yet it will not be revealed until they are within the woods" He explained.

My eyes turned to Randy. "Is that cool?" I asked of him.

He nodded.

The cameras were no rolling, Coach took over. "I am the Coach and this is one of the strangest Wrestlemaina main events ever!" Before he could finish. Cena bumped him off and stood in his dragon form before the camera. "Never mind him. I am here to pass the mic over to Kane, he will explain the ground rules," he said.

I changed into my sorcerer outfit, for I would be better suited for this. "Thanks. The rules go as follow. The objective for the Lin Kuei team is to bring Randy Orton down. They are to make him surrender, quit, or knocked out. If any one of them dares try and take it farther than that, you will be dealt with by me!" I seethed to them all; the fear was there in their eyes, yet they hid it well. All wore black outfits much like the design of Sub-Zero's. "Any death moves or blows, I assure you… your punishment will be for me to do as you did. Yet I am much worst than what you could ever imagine doing!" I lowered my voice to the sadistic tone I could do. My attention was turned to Randy.

"Randy Orton. You are to defeat the five who are sent out to get you, if you can withstand them. By making them submit, surrender or knock out. Since Randy is alone. He must survive 30 minutes in the forest. If the can, he will be declared the winner. However Randy, if you kill one of them you will be dealt with by Sub-Zero" I warned him sternly.

Orton nodded to the rule.

"I accept," he said.

"Lin do you?" I asked of them. I didn't use their full name at the request of Sub Zero. They all nodded to me in agreement of the rule. "So be it. Randy you have a 20 second head start. GO!" I ordered. Orton teleported away just as the other dragons left to their posts, when the 20 seconds were up, the Lin Kuei stated to make their way into the forest. Their footsteps couldn't be heard by anyone or anything. This will be hard for Orton.

Coach brought in a computer to watch the action. I watched on as well seeing one of the Lin Kuei already use his powers. He was like Sub-Zero. Just not as strong with the ice blast yet. The camera caught him, and Orton was above him. The Camera couldn't catch any movement, you could hardly see their bodies move for they struck hard and fast. God, I wish I could see better as to what's going on.
