Chapter 13- Kane's redemption.
Back in Detroit.
Kane had managed to follow the scent of the woman through the streets of Detroit. He could smell her through the population of millions as he recalled her smell from his first encounter with her. It wasn't long until he found her at an abandoned factory with the man who checked her out of the hospital, he had injected her arm and made her limp. "It will all be over soon! I promise" he whispered to her. "And for me"
Kane waited in the shadows as he watched the back doors open. Four men came into the building and surrounded the two. "I don't take kindly to little fuckers that get my men killed! You didn't have anything to do with that do you?" demanded the oldest of the four.
The one who stood by the wheelchair shook his head. "No, I swear! I mean you saw what happened. My own sister was nearly killed!"
Sister?
Kane felt nearly ill as he watched a brother betray his own flesh and blood and for what? To weasel out of a debt he knew he never should have taken? He felt his lip curl as the rage flowed through him, but he made sure to keep silent as the men continued on their conversation. "Well, she's all here for you. Drugged so she cannot resist… like you asked"
"Good. Rocko, take her over their and have her ready for me!" Kane began to stalk the man who wheeled the girl into the back room, none were aware of the hidden door it contained.
Rocko had thrown the woman onto the bed, her eyes moved about rapidly in her head as she tried with every ounce of strength to move. But he had other ideas in mind. Rocko wasn't going to wait his turn. He began to strip down then and there and reached for her blouse.
That was until a hand caught his wrist, Rocko came face to face with a very demonic looking Kane who smiled with wicked intent. His free hand clasped over his mouth as the Big Red Monster pinned his prey to the wall. He leaned in and whispered. "I won't let you harm her, I won't let you be tempted again" Without hesitation Kane tore into the man's neck and drained him dry of his blood. As he finished though, the crack of a gun was heard as a sharp pain ripped through his back.
Moving away from the wall, Kane saw the exit wound of a single bullet. He came face to face with the four remaining men who stared down at the corpse of their fallen bodyguard.
"You… It was you!" the brother of the woman demanded.
Kane knew he should be in more pain than what he felt, but for the moment, it felt like he was pinched in the back and then the front. "What man sells his own sister to pay off his debts?" Kane growled lowly.
The man smirked. "I would have done it myself, but they don't swing that way"
"You aren't leaving here alive…." Kane whispered below his breath.
"Strange, I was going to say the same thing to you" The men began to open fire. A barrage of bullets hit their mark as Kane felt his body burn. But he wasn't falling. In fact, he hardly felt the pain of his flesh being torn. He charged the men and took all of their blood without hesitation, however he spared the brother and waited for the woman to regain movement of her body. It wasn't long until she came too, at first confusion came over her until she saw Kane holding her brother by the neck. She screamed aloud as Kane released him, a moment of silence came over her as she looked between Kane and her brother.
"What I did to you a few days ago… there are no words as to how sorry I am, for what I've done. But, just so you know. Your brother sent you into that alley to be physically harmed, he nearly did so again"
She stared to her brother who tried to explain that he didn't have a choice. But the moment the words came past his lips, his sister moved away from him as quickly as possible. She stunned herself as she stood next to Kane who was riddled with bullet holes throughout his body. "You… sold me…" she whispered through her tears. "Not once, but twice!"
Kane stared down the selfish bastard and announced. "Don't make me hurt you. From here on, you leave her alone. And if you ever come near her again, I will be forced to take your life! Understood?" Kane roared aloud.
The man could only bring himself to nod his head, but his sister wasn't so forgiving. "He can't leave here, he had done this before. And to other women!" she protested.
"Stella, please…"
"No Rick. I am not going to cover for you anymore! And I know everything you had done. You never learn! Even when a loaded gun is aimed at your head, you will say anything to save your own hide! You told that to all the girls you called girlfriends, how come I read their obituaries in a matter of weeks after you were 'dating' them?"
She turned to Kane with a desperate plea in her eyes. "Please, he won't learn. I know he won't! Look what nearly happened to me!" she cried.
Somehow, for some reason, Kane could tell who spoke the truth, and who spoke a lie. He could hear the hidden agenda in the woman's voice as she begged him to kill her own brother. He knew the brother lied as well, yet what to do about it? Kane looked down at the woman and suggested she leave, she did so without hesitation, but he caught a look in her eyes, a glare with a sinister smirk as she walked out of his line of sight.
The brother, Rick shook fearfully before Kane. "Please… please!" he begged.
"First, you come clean right now, did what she say was true?" he asked.
Rick nodded his head that the women he dated here killed, but not at his hands. The men who lay dead at his feet were responsible, they wanted his sister for 'payment' because she too owed them money. "I swear to you it's the truth. They killed my girlfriends to send me a message!"
"Then why did you drug her?"
Rick couldn't give an answer. He was too frightened. Kane sneered down at the man and turned his back. "My warning stands as is. I strongly suggest you keep away from your sister for the rest of your life!" Kane ran out of the building and went back to the arena. He was a little slower as the bullet wounds worried him. He was struck everywhere, and yet he wasn't dead. He was getting concerned. As he found himself standing before the arena in Winnipeg, Kane went in through the back where he heard everyone running and screaming. The howling of a wolf gave him a good idea as to what had just occurred.
"If it's not one thing, it's another" he muttered lowly to himself.
