Chapter 3- Taking justice – Serpentine
"I thought you said we couldn't trust him?"
"Indeed, I thought so too, but quite frankly, this one has been listening to my warning. I have heard him speak with the authority and yet they don't listen. We do listen, and I think we could sway him."
"Interesting notion, how though?"
"Simple, we make him one of us, and yet knowing him he wants us to make it look like he was turned against his will."
"Serpentine, I am certain this idea will work, but what about the ones who hurt Miss Lee?"
"In due time Adrian, in due time. You and I know she is well protected now at the hospital, and if worst comes to worst. The authority will send the Wyatts or Shield to her hospital room and hold her hostage to convince us to back away…" I paused at the thought, yes. They would certainly do this. "But no one must tell them who waits at her bedside to wake. Nor tell who stands guard."
Silence fell between us, I turned to my friend who remained in the darkness. Adrian is a creature like me. Yet he is far different than I am. For two of his distinct features are not hard to miss. He has horns and demonic wings. Many call him a demon, but he is far from it.
"Mind yourself Adrian, and don't reveal yourself. At least, not yet"
He smiled to him. "I have no intention unless I must. For now. Keep yourself out of trouble."
I returned the smile. "I make no promises." I watched as he vanished into the darkness once more. My concern was now to the one who possessed a WWE superstar. It didn't take long to find him, and who he took as a host. In fact he walked right by me, but paused and stared into the shadow. His head tilted. "Serpentine I presume?"
Slowly, I came out of the shadows. "You must be CM Punk. At least, on the outside, am I right?"
Slowly. He smiled. "Oh, I suppose my unexpected summoning has something to do with what is going on. Hm, no one they stare at me oddly."
"Actually. Many know CM Punk well. You have serpent eyes. He does not."
His smile refused to vanish. "Ah" was all he could say. Despite the possession, he was rather cheerful.
"Tell me, how is he taking it?" I asked.
Suddenly, his neck turned and his head twisted oddly, the look in his eyes vanished as Punk's true eyes returned. He appeared rather breathless as he slowly looked up at me. "Wyatts, the Wyatts got her, they took Bryan too. I want revenge!"
"How do you feel about sharing a body?" I asked of him.
Punk smiled. "I like what he has to offer. He promised me revenge, I look forward to it."
"Very well then, I shall leave you both to it, just do not strike now. At least, not fully. Do enough to regain your friend, but the Wyatts must suffer for what has been done!"
Punk smiled as his eyes clouded and my fellow creature took hold again. "We promise" was all they said, oddly though, I heard two voice some out of the same mouth.
Curious…
