"Seduction is often difficult to distinguish from rape. In seduction, the rapist often bothers to buy a bottle of wine."
Kevin noticed the blood before he noticed anything else. There was so much blood he didn't know how to describe what he was seeing but it looked like a crime scene. And the crime scene was his best friends locker room and the victim was his best friend Shawn Michaels. Shawn was unconscious when he found him laying in a puddle of water mixed with blood and semen...all signs of him being assaulted. The more he thought about it the more he realized just who the perpetrator was. The cologne so evident on the scene of the crime was very expensive and only one person wore that sort of Adidas cologne, Hunter... But why would Hunter hurt Shawn like this? What was the reasoning behind it? What had little Shawny boy done to deserve this? His thoughts were interrupted by the stirring man in his arms. Kevin consoled him as he laid him in the bed of their hotel room. Kevin looked down on him filled with regret. He should have never left him alone. It was his job to protect Shawn, he had always been the bodyguard, the big brother...he was supposed to stay with him despite everything. That was the way things worked.
"Kev?" He heard the hoarse voice and looked down on his friend, his broken battered friend. Shawn's eye lid was bruised and he looked like a shell of himself, but still he was innocent little Shawn his best friend, his brother, his partner in crime. Kevin would do anything for him no matter what.
"Shawny?" He asked quietly as the man stirred and rolled over in the bed. He didn't need to say a word Kevin knew what he wanted. He wanted to be held. He climbed into bed with his friend and smiled. Shawn looked up at him his eyes tortured by the pain of all the events that had been taking place as of recently. He was sure Shawn didn't want to talk. But they needed too and he'd do whatever it took to get Shawn to talk, that was just his way.
"It was Hunter wasn't it? He raped you." It was more of a statement of fact that a question. Shawn could sense how sure of himself he was as he said it. And he was right but Shawn couldn't give up Hunter not this way. No he didn't even know why Hunter had done it. Maybe...Maybe he just couldn't handle his feelings, the guy was always reserved Shawn never knew what he was thinking.
"Kev...it wasn't like that...Even as it was happening I wanted it, I liked it. Sure it hurt like hell, sure I fought him but you know how I feel about Hunter..." Kevin knew exactly what Shawn meant, the former leader of DX had always harbored a crush on his blonde muscular counterpart. Shawn was so desperate for Hunter to love him back that he would do anything, even protect him now. Kevin knew there would be no fighting with him. Not now at least. Kevin said nothing but in his mind he envisioned confronting Hunter, facing him and destroying for hurting Shawn. But he couldn't do it. Hunter had been his friend too. Hunter may have his flaws but the Kliq had honor, they had their ways of doing things. That's why no cops would be called, no hospital would be informed. That night Kevin called in a private doctor to treat Shawn's external and internal wounds. As for Shawn's emotional wounds only time would tell that story. He watched as Shawn tossed in his sleep crying out Hunter's name repeatedly. Kevin didn't know what he should do so he called his own lover, Chico.

"Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing."
Scott was there to answer the phone because that was what friends did, they risked it all for each other and they always picked up the phone when you called. Scott wasn't just a friend to Kevin he was his lover, that was why when Kev left for WCW Hall followed. He picked up the phone cautiously immediately sensing the depravity in Kev's voice, something was seriously wrong. Kevin looked at Shawn and immediately started to explain what he had witness, it did little to absolve Hall's fears about the situation something was seriously wrong in Hunter's head right now. This wasn't the man he had known.
"Is Shawny gonna be okay?" He asked worriedly. What more could he do? He wasn't there to see the shape he was in and from what Kevin said it wasn't good. He couldn't help but be protective of his little friend. Shawn may have been an elder to Hunter and kid but he was still a little guy, Shawn had always been a little guy. Every guy in their group felt protective of Shawn it was like an instinct. You either loved Shawn or you protected him, anyone who had the heart to hurt Shawn had some serious issues. Kevin sighed heavily looking at the beautiful Texan laying on his bed brokenly.
"I don't think so Chico, you know how attached Shawn is to Hunter. He tries so hard to get people to like him for the man he loves to have done this to him I don't even know where his head is at right now." Shawn's head was lost in translation, lost in a realm of darkness and deceit. He wasn't even sure where he began or ended. It was like he was stuck in hell repeating the final moments of his life in some sort of circuitous cycle of never ending despair. As he could see was Hunters face as he slammed into him panting and grunting enjoying himself in Shawn's pain. Shawn suddenly seemed to open up to the world as he heard Kev speaking to Scott.
"Is that Chico?" He asked softly somewhat excitedly but also relieved; if Scott was on the line he could have someone to talk to who wouldn't be forceful like Kevin was. He didn't need force now, not after what Hunter had done. Kevin nodded handing him the phone. For a moment all that could be heard was Shawn's heavy breathing before a soft whisper escaped.
"Hunter hates me." He whispered as unshed tears glistened in his eyes. Scott could hear him choke up and in that moment all he wanted to do was console him. Just to listen and reassure the broken man on the other line.
"No he doesn't Shawn, Hunter just isn't in the right frame of mind right now. He's too controlled by his lust for gold and power. He'll come around." Even as Scott said it he wasn't sure of it and he couldn't even be sure, Hunter had changed alot. Still, Scott Hall had a needy hurting friend on the other line and even though Shawn would know he wasn't being exactly truthful he knew this was exactly what Shawn needed.
"Lie to me." Shawn whispered softly. The world was conspiring against him and he was lost in it's hurricane. This terrible weather was a storm he was in no condition of fighting off but he knew maybe a few lies could get him through another minute. In the long run Shawn couldn't focus on days or even weeks, all he could do was live minute to minute hoping he'd have some way of living through it all. He needed a simple lie.
"Shawn...the world is a perfect place and friends never betray other friends, the night never falls it's always daylight and hope never fades away. Nothing is grey everything is black and white and you always know who the knight in shining armor is and who the angel of death is. You never feel pain and love is always easy." He spent his whole night lying to Shawn comforting him in ways only he could as a friend of so many years. In actuality all he was doing was prolonging Shawn's pain for as long as he could forcing some life back into the broken man's body. Scott felt some hope when a smart ass yet tired Shawn finally replied in his Texan Accent.
"Chico?" Scott gave him his classic 'Huh?' as Shawn continued and said snarkily. "You're a god damned liar."

"One should rather die than be betrayed. There is no deceit in death. It delivers precisely what it has promised. Betrayal, though ... betrayal is the willful slaughter of hope."
Hunter was having a very rough night. After his ravaging of his former best friend he had crashed at his hotel for an hour or so drinking some booze so very uncharacteristic of him when an idea popped into his head. If he wanted to break Shawn to his will he had to do something drastic and break off his friendships. He had to destroy the Kliq. His first choice would have to be Kid. Kid was the most vulnerable member of the Kliq, his drug addiction had put a wedge between his relationship with Kev and Chico but not Shawn. Kid would be the first link of the chain around Shawn that he had to destroy. The only question in Hunter's obsessed mind was how to destroy him without making it noticable that he had done so. Sean Waltman was supposed to come back to the WWE as X-Pac and he couldn't allow that to happen. Kid had been clean for a while now a couple weeks so he could pass his piss test, Hunter had to sabotage it. So had it really come down to this? Was Hunter really the saboteur in this all? It seemed he had no choice if he wanted Shawn completely his. To destroy the Icon.
Hunter walked into Sean Waltman's hotel room. It had been easy enough to convince the party happy man to get some drinks flowing. Once this little Kliq past time routine starter Hunter called in the Evolution girls, the ring rats, to occupy Sean's time. While this happened he put blow, coke, in his Sean's Jack Daniels. It was easy enough it even dissolved into the drink. Sean was non the wiser as Hunter continued to pour drinks. Hunter smirked as the younger man passed out. No Sean would not be passing his drug test tomorrow. Phase One Complete, his next target would be another attempt at Shawn and getting in his pants again this time with seduction. Then Hunter would have to take out the friendly giant, the big bear of the house, Kevin Nash. That was going to prove to be difficult. Most likely Kevin would get in his face and a fight would insue. Hunter would have to forcibly take him out. But then another plan sprang into his head entirely. Randy Orton liked to take people out all he had to do was simple. He would send the younger member of Evolution to take out Kevin Nash's knee and put him out permanently. Hmm apparently Hunter was still just that damn good!!
It had been simple, he had taken the youngest Orton aside and taken him to horse races and let him use some of his money to bet on the horses. They had drank, slept with a few willing females and then discussed business over a dinner. Evolution always did things big, they enjoyed the finer things in life. That was Hunter gave up a little information to his willful assassin.
"I need Kevin out of the way so I can destroy Shawn, make him feel what betrayal is like. Show him I am not the lackey anymore. I'd send Ric or Dave to do this but Ric is too old for this sorta thing and Dave isn't all that subtle. I fingered taking people out would be the future Legend Killers area of expertise. I can't get my hands dirty for obvious reasons." Boosting Orton's ego proved to be the sealing of the deal. The young boy, eager to prove himself went about preparing for the plan. And Hunter started to focus on his next task getting close to Shawn to get in his pants. Shawn was his obsession and he would do anything to get to him. He spent the night contemplating before a few days later showing up at the heartbreaker's door step. The fiery texan was all too eager to let him inside. Hunter had put up a front of apologetic behavior and started his plan of coaxing the blonde to let him in his bed. The Road to Destroying Shawn seemed like an all too easy one. If only he had known how stubborn the Texan was or how malicious the road would be on both parties.
"You start living for the obsession alone ... You want to arrive somewhere regardless of whether you're enjoying the road or not."
Whew this was a rough chapter to write. A lot of things going on at once, plus I love the Kliq so much that doing that to them all was a bit hard. Plus in rl my mom has skin cancer so updating was a bit hard. As such I would REALLY APPRECIATE REVIEWS. I need the encouragement right now about now. So please if you like this story and want an update REVIEW!!!
