Chapter 5- truth exposed.

It would be just over a week later when Snitsky returned to action, he vowed he would never drink again. Kane however was suspicious. He heard everyone say they never drank a beer that night, only water. Kane knew it was Triple H's doing. Kane was about to confront Hunter when he learned McMahon was calling him into his office. Kane went of course and was shocked to see the Undertaker standing there.

"Taker?" Kane asked.

Vince looked to the men and offered them a seat. "Please, sit down" Vince stated. Kane and Taker did. McMahon kept a stern look to them when he spoke. "You two… notice something odd going on?" he asked.

Kane and Taker looked to one another. "Odd as in?" quizzed the Deadman.

"Odd markings on your neck… blood on your sheets when you wake in the morning?"

Kane's mouth dropped. "You knew about it!"

"I'm not saying I do… I'm just saying… do you know about any of that?"

Taker didn't like the way this was going. Nor did Kane. They stood up to leave, yet felt something force them right back down onto their seats. Kane and Taker couldn't move.

"What the hell?" growled Taker.

Vince rose from his seat. He had a TV in his room that showed Taker's family and Kane's family bounded in a room. "Sara"

"No… what the hell do you want from us!" Kane demanded.

Vince looked to them. "Please, it's nothing personal… I just want to get Stephanie back…"

Kane and Taker felt a blindfold come over their eyes as a sharp piercing entered their neck, their strength was taken from them instantly as the blood flowed out of their bodies. Kane and Taker felt a cold liquid forced into their mouths, causing their bodies to ache in pain.

They screamed in agony as their strength grew stronger and a thirst became more powerful. Kane and Taker broke free of their invisible bonds and tore the bind fold off. Vince was saddened with what had happened. Kane's eyes stared down at his hands… he became fascinated.

'Why are my hands so interesting?' he asked himself.

Taker's eyes darted towards the ground; he saw Triple H and Stephanie lay there. They had an undead look to them, yet it quickly vanished.

"What the hell just happened McMahon?" Taker demanded of him.

Vince looked to the both of them and sighed. "It's… a vampire curse they put on Stephanie and Hunter. They said if I didn't give them you… they would kill them!" he cried.

"So we're just PAWNS!" Taker roared. "What the hell do you take us for McMahon! And why the hell do you have my family captured and Kane's!"

Vince looked to Taker. "You had to become what you are now…. If you want them back"

Kane looked to the Undertaker, seeing a pale look on his face. "We're dead, aren't we?" Kane whispered.

"No not really. Look at Hunter and Stephanie…" Vince pointed out. They were coming too and recovering. "You need to slay the leader of the vampire, the one who started the curse" Vince explained.

"And who is that?" Kane demanded.

"Cindy… she's the one"

"I knew it," growled Taker.

Kane felt sick to his stomach as it moaned. "I'm so hungry"

Vince didn't like where it was going. "You need blood? Now?" he asked.

Kane let a low growl leave his mouth, an animalistic notice. Taker too felt the hunger in him grow.

"I need to" Kane moaned as he tried to resist the urge pulsing through his body. He began to understand what Hunter was doing. When he was a vampire he took a little bit from every wrestler so none would be seriously harmed in his feeding habits. He probably went over board with Snitsky.

"Kane… Taker… you can go out to feed if you want. I tried to order blood packs but I couldn't get any…"

Taker raised his hand. "It's ok… We'll take our hunger out on Cindy" Taker growled. He turned to Kane. "You ready?" he asked.

Kane nodded. "Let's go"

The two men were about to leave, yet Taker felt someone grasp onto his foot. He looked down, seeing Triple H holding onto his ankle. "No… I'm going with you" he said.

Taker pulled out of Hunter's grasp.

"You can't come… besides, you've done enough harm" Taker hissed back at him.

Hunter slowly got to his feet. "You… don't understand… Cindy… she was going to go after you first… she was going to kill your family… but I made a deal with her… Taker please!" he begged.

Kane looked to the Undertaker. "Mark… listen to what he's saying, you and I both hear the truth in his words. He's not lying to us"

Taker looked down at Triple H. He pulled Hunter fully to his feet. "You can come, yet get in our way… I will not be responsible for what happens to you"

Hunter nodded. "I must repay my debt to you Deadman, you too Kane. I'm sorry"

They could smell the salty tears from Hunter's eyes; he meant ever word of what he spoke. Kane looked to Taker.

"We got a curse to break…"
