Chapter 5- The message- Serpentine

The next week.

I waited for Stephanie and Hunter to enter the ring, they have just taken notice of Kane's absence and were demanding an explanation to it all. Randy Orton no doubt told them of my involvement, but now it is time to see their reaction to what will happen next. Stephanie called me out. "Look, freak, I don't care what you are or what you are going to Kane. You do not cross us, you do not threaten us, for we will never back down!" she said.

So, I came out slowly and bided my time.

I stared at the two in the ring. I only smiled. "It warms me to know how much you are truly concerned over your Director of Operations. Pity though that you do not express any worry over the matter."

"Cut the crap, what did you do with Kane?" demanded Triple H.

I smiled. "Nothing… yet." I went back through the curtain and began the first part of my plan. I pulled Kane out from the shadows and brought him on his keen before me. He face the ring, rather startled to my action, but it only got worst when my talons began to sink into his shoulder. He screamed aloud in pain as Stephanie and Triple H watched. "Now then, about what I am about to do to him, if you do not let me have what I desire. I want the Wyatts, I want to punish them my way and no interference!" I said to them.

The two exchanged an odd look. "And if we refuse?" asked Stephanie.

I clenched Kane's shoulder a little harder. He gave out another scream until I released him. His shoulder was black, the audience couldn't see the damage done. "Please, stop him! Stop his madness!" Kane called aloud.

Stephanie and Hunter didn't move, they didn't say a thing. "Or are you going to write this off as a business loss?" I asked of them.

It was time.

The Authority wouldn't lift a finger to help him, defend the man monster they themselves created. Pity. Reaching into my jacket I took the image I had. I went back to Kane but this time I drew blood from his shoulder and let it drop onto the photo. With a single drop of his blood, the image smoldered and spewed forth a thick smoke until he was engulfed in it.

Stepping off to the side, he unleashed another horrific scream, yet when the smoke cleared, Kane wasn't Kane anymore.

Long black hair covered his face as that itself changed to a younger Demeter. His lips curled to reveal fangs as his suit was no more. Thankfully though, his pants remained in tact. He began to stare at his hands that had long, sharp tips. Then his sights turned to the ring. Stephanie and Hunter appeared utterly terrified. He began to make his way down, slowly yet refusing to look away from the Authority. When he stood before the ring, his hands reached up for the rope.

I think they got my message. "Dante" I said aloud.

He froze to my voice and slowly turned to me. "In due time, dear friend. But now is not it."

He smiled to me and gave but a nod before making his way back up the ramp way, I watched him go into the back. Looking to Stephanie and Hunter, it was my turn to smile. "That makes two that you know of now, and three others you have yet to meet!" I dropped the mic and retreated to the back.

Dante was staring at those who lingered before the ramp way, he looked into each person's face. Assessing who each person, and no doubt judging them. He turned to me with crossed arms. "Serp, I am curious to these mortals. Why do they stand and do nothing?"

I only smiled. "I have much to explain to you, especially about the one you possessed. Come, we talk in a private room."

We walked unopposed down the hallway and into a locker room where no one was keeping their things. When I locked the door behind me, Dante froze still. He was listening no doubt. "Are you alright?"

"I am, but this host you have give me. He is rather verbal and wishes to speak with you. He is quite upset."

Figures.

"May I speak with him please?"

Just as CM Punk's head turned and contorted, so did Dante until Kane's eyes and face reemerged. He stared at me, shaking his head and trying to move his body. He couldn't. "What is going on? What have you done?" he demanded.

"I did what you wanted. Made the Authority believe I took you against your will. Quite frankly, I doubt you thought I was serious. My friend Dante has taken hold of your body and is within your mind. This is how it is going to go down Kane. You and I are on the same page from here on. We are going to make the Authority's life a living hell until Miss Lee is avenged or until they give me what I want, and that's the ability to punish the Wyatts for their actions!"

Kane stared at me oddly. "Is that all you want?"

"For now it is."
