Chapter 7- The attack.

The weeks passed as all grew quite around the locker room, The Nexus learned many secrets from the others, as Kane later confessed to them that the Undertaker wasn't the only half immortal of the locker room, he was too. Both he and the Deadman had to fend off the craving, yet learned from John as to how to feed without taking a life. Kane showed them one night as Cena kept to himself backstage at a Smackdown event. He sat near the ramp way as the Undertaker went out for his match. They watched as a mist came through the curtain and onto John's skin, in aw, they stared as he breathed in the mist as his body took in everything it had. When it vanished. Cena became bright eyed and bushy tailed, he smiled to Kane and announced he was good for the next while.

"Wait, what is he feeding off of?" Wade asked.

John smiled. "The crowd. They willingly give off so much energy, I can harness it and sustain myself. No one get harmed from it, no one gets killed. It's free flowing and I found means of taking it as my own. Every cheer and boo there is, I can use that to fuel my body" he explained. "Wrestlemania can nourish me for three months"

Nexus didn't know what to think or make of it, yet Kane assured them that the process was completely harmless. "Think of it, over twenty four thousand people, screaming aloud and chanting our names, booing us. All that energy is put out, and now with a place to go." He explained. "Since Taker and I are half immortal, we only need to do this once a year, sometimes more. But that's what Wrestlemania is for"

"So, you don't drink blood?" asked Slater.

John fell silent to his question. "I won't lie to you, I have before. I still do, only if I can't get the energy I need"

Nexus fell still to the answer, yet Kane was quick to break the silence. "That's behind us now, ok. Now you boys know about this, you cannot tell a soul! As well, be on high alter, the bounty hunters will be back, they have been known to regroup and counter attack"

"So, what do we do now?" asked Wade.

Kane shrugged his shoulders. "Hell if I know, just try and not to think about it" he explained as the crooked smile came over him. He left Nexus and Cena to go out to do his match against the Undertaker. Nexus turned to John who tried to offer the most innocent smile he had. "Yeah, sorry to drag you into this" he said.

Before they could say a thing, a woman approached John with tears in her eyes. "Mr. Cena! Mr. Cena! My son is missing!" she cried.

Nexus was worried as security approached Cena and explained a group of men came in and took the child. Three of the guards were sent to hospital with serious wounds, but the child was gone. "What would they want my son for!" shouted the father. "He need to have his medication with him at all times!"

Wade saw it from the corner of his eyes as John's eyes turned crimson red. His lip curled as an inhuman noise came past his lips. It was the first time he saw them, Cena's fangs.

John however calmed himself down long enough to get a few details. Security took him to the room where the child was staying for the show. John walked about the room. Nexus noticed how he began to take in deep breaths of air. He not only picked up on the child's scent, but also his kidnappers. "Call the police immediately" Cena ordered. "Nexus, with me"

They followed John out of the room as he announced he was off to get the child back. Wade however tried to stop him. "This is out of our hands, it's a trap isn't it… you know it too don't you?" he asked.

John however hissed deeply towards Wade. "I don't care anymore!" he roared in anger. "A boy is put in danger because of me! A child that looked up to ME is now in trouble. I got him into this, I will get him out!"

"Not alone!" Gabriel announced. "John, you cannot do this alone"

"I have to." Cena growled.

"No, and I am going with you. Let me go with you just so you have backup" begged Wade.

At first, John was about to argue, but knew it was a waste of time. He nodded and took Wade by the shoulder. "Hang on tight" the two men vanished in the blink of an eye.

None of Nexus knew what just happened. However they knew Cena was going into a trap with Barrett at his side. Neither knew where they were going, or what would happen to them. But they had to tell someone, anything! "We got to tell the Undertaker," whispered Tarver.

"What? Why the Undertaker?" demanded Slater.

"Because, he is half vampire, he can find Cena" said Otunga. "But, who tell him?"

Nexus spent the better part of the night trying to decide who would tell the Deadman what just happened…
