Chapter 9- What now? Taker

We sat round until Hunter came too; he was groggy at first yet his eyes soon fully opened. "Good morning sleeping beauty," Kane teased as he looked over the couch.

Hunter just sat there. "I don't know what's more creepy right now, Kane doing that… or me," he muttered.

I paused for just a moment. "You remember what happened?" I asked.

"How the hell could I forget? You know that 'circus' owner that tried to buy one of your girls? And the big guy after? They are all from the same place, the same freaks that wanted to kill you two for your parts," he explained.

"You said you couldn't remember that" Kane spoke aloud.

Hunter nodded. "When I passed out, I remembered and saw it for the second time. You two are ok right?" he asked.

"Peachy" was my reply. "Yet Stephanie freaked out at us when we were carrying you back stage. Man, she would have skinned us alive if those freak weren't going to do so first!" I smirked.

Hunter sat up and walked about for a bit. "So, what did you do to them all?" Kane asked.

There was a grin on Triple H's face. "They used dragons for their power… I just allowed the dragons they killed to take it back"

Kane and I stood there, more perplexed than ever, I slapped Kane in the arm. "What the hell were you thinking to give Hunter that kind of power man! Hell, he's better off than we are!"

Hunter only smiled to us. "You do know… people don't think you REALLY turned into dragons. You are aware of that right?"

"That's a load, the fans that saw it live…"

"Thought it was a hell of a makeup job" Hunter said as Kane was speaking.

Kane and I stared at him once more as Hunter walked out of the room with a grin on his face. Kane turned to me. "Why do I have the strangest feeling Hunter did something to make it look like it was a 'hell of a makeup job' as he so kindly explained?" he asked of me.

"I don't know Kane, hell. I don't think I even wanna know. Let's just take it for what he says it is and leave it at that. Finally things can get back to normal around here!"

"Here's hoping" Kane grinned.
