Chapter 6- The rescue

The men were about ready to move the unconscious Barrett, that was until they heard a thick battle cry break through the darkness. Sheamus came running at them with a blunt object, followed by the Nexus. The men ran as fast as they could, as Sheamus was sure they were chased off and not coming back. He turned to stare at the fallen Barrett. "Shit" he growled lowly.

Reaching into his pocket, the Celtic Warrior pulled out a cellphone. "We've got a problem" was all he said before hanging up.

Nexus however was more concerned with Wade as he slowly came too. When he was starting to regain control over his body, his eyes came upon Sheamus. "Wha… what just happened?" he asked.

Sheamus at first said nothing, he went to Wade's side and pulled him up onto his feet and began to walk him out. "For the moment, I cannot say a word, not yet at least. We're taking you back to the hotel"

There was a car in the distance, waiting for them. Sheamus loaded Nexus in as he took the front seat. None of them could see the driver for the moment, yet once they came to the hotel, they were stunned to see Kane come from the driver's seat. "Not a word, follow me" he said lowly.

Kane led them through the hotel lobby and into a meeting room, awaiting them was the Undertaker, Edge and Jericho. Nexus was seated, they sat in silence until the Deadman spoke. "Do you know who those men were that attacked you Barrett?" questioned the Deadman.

Wade was silent, he shrugged his shoulders and confessed he didn't know them. "All they said was that I was a hunter, and I had to bring John to meet the others…"

Taker scratched him beard in worry as he turned to Kane who swore under his breath. "Shit, I thought we hid him well enough," muttered Sheamus.

Edge began to look concerned as he stared between Nexus and the Deadman. "What now?"

"Wait, what the blood hell is going on!" demanded Gabriel. "You haven't told us jack as to what you are hiding or what those guys want, what the hell is going on!"

Taker looked about the room as the veterans gave a solemn nod to him. He nodded back as he took a deep breath. "The men who attacked Barrett are a group who have been on our case for many, many years. They are called Hunters, men able to sense the supernatural and can do battle with them too. You see, Kane and I were Hunters. We battled the supernatural, and yet you see us in the ring as wrestlers. But for a reason, we learned many years ago of an immortal. We were ordered to slay him, yet found him to be harmless. He wanted a simple, mortal life, and could sustain himself without harming others. Just as long as he kept himself fed…"

"John Cena" Kane announced. "He is the immortal we were sent to kill, yet he has proven himself to be a great asset to not only the WWE, but to the world and those he is around. Especially the make a wish children"

"Wait, Cena is a vampire?" asked Skip.

"Yes, a powerful one at that." Edge stated. "You see, recently, another hunter had been sent to kill him. Another had joined the cause. That is the Celtic Warrior in the room"

All eyes turned to Sheamus who smiled. "It's not every day you learn of a creature who was designed to kill, doing good for those he is suppose to feed off of." He announced. Sheamus began to walk around Nexus. "The men you saw were hunters, bounty hunters. They have been after John since he first débuted in the WWE, relentless pissers they are"

"Why John?" asked Slater.

"Because, John is the only one that has a bounty on his head by his fellow immortals. They don't like the fact that he has found a new method of feeding, he has tried to share the secret with others with little success. So, they are out to eliminate him. To keep the old ways" said Kane. "Problem is, they have to deal with us. The Deadman is not just a hunter… he part supernatural"

All eyes turned to the Undertaker, who simply nodded his head. "I'm half vampire, but don't need to feed. I have their strength, yet a few weaknesses. I can't be in the sun too long unless I got strong sun block."

"Wait, I've seen John in the sun! He doesn't burn," announced Wade.

"Or sparkle" smirked Jericho.

"Same thing, sun block and lots of it" explained Kane. "But, since you boys know of the secret now, you are now part of the order established in the WWE. You help us keep John safe from those hunters."

"Wait, how do we do that?" asked Skip.

"Nexus style!" Tarver said with a grin.
