Fire (Undertaker x reader)

- 9 -

This is the week. The week of Wrestlemania.

With six days to go you try not to think about the past few months.  

Last week Undertaker delivered a message to Kane. A message that could be understood by all. 

Kane went out twice last week, but only one attack was successful.

The second time he went out Sable was in the ring, injured, but Kane didn't seem to care.

You had been troubled by this, you understood when it was you. You had stood your ground agaisnt him, you were, and still are an ally to his enemy. An enemy of his yourself.
His future sister in law.
But Sable had none of those reasons to be attacked.

Kane had raised his hand.
Taken a step towards Sable.

But the sudden darkness had stopped him.
The bell tolled and you followed Undertaker into position. 

"Kane" a spotlight flooded only where the two of you stood, atop the titantron. 

"Wrestlemania 14 I will strike down upon thee with anger and furious vengeance. I will deliver you to the fiery pits of eternal damnation! You will know my name as the Lord of Darkness. Little brother. I've felt your wrath. You've felt Y/n's wrath. Now you're gonna feel mine"

Paul and Kane had stared up at the two of you, and you had stared right back down.
"It's too late to turn back. The only thing that you can do now is rest in peace!" 

With the final word a single bolt of lightening had travelled from the ceiling to the stage, opening the box positioned in the center.

It was dark inside at first, until it had set ablaze, revealing Kane.
It had been a short and simple message, and it had been delivered perfectly.

Now you sit with him, wearing a similar outfit to normal, just a little more formal given the circumstances.
He had asked you to be with him for this.

Although he had spoken to his parents and given them comfort while he was visiting the darkness he felt it was not enough.

The cameras had yet to start rolling, and for some time the two of you had just been sat in silence at the place they were buried.

"I'm ready" he sighs, and you reach turn on the camera, hitting record and moving to sit at his side.

"Mother, Father. I've done some things in my life of which I'm not very proud. And I'm sure there's been occasions where I haven't lived up to your expectations of me. I can only hope that now you understand that I've come to my crossroads" 

You squeeze his hand. You know how hard this is for him.

"The devil himself stands before me, in the form of my own flesh and blood. Of my own brother. Kane. Mother, please forgive me for the sin which I'm about to commit. A sin so heinous, but it's something that must be done. And in the end I only hope that together, as one, that we can rest in peace. A family once again." He looks to you, and you nod, accepting the offer to join the family regardless of the outcome of WrestleMania.

"And if such is not the case. I alone am willing to serve my penance. I am willing to burn in my own damnation. I am willing to look my destiny in the eye and go where the reaper leads me."
