It was dark, the way he liked it. You could hardly see him as he sat forward, the manila folder still laying beside him. In his hands were a pair of pictures, pictures that he could hardly bare to look at but pictures the demanded he study every last detail.
”Betrayed…”
It was the only word he could utter at the moment, his eyes still locked on the photographs before him. His breathing was heavy, filled with anger and contempt but his poster denoted one of calm. Even in this darkness his calmness unnerved you. Anyone else would be raging but this man only looked over the pair of photos as if there were something more hidden within them.
”Betrayed by my own weakness… My own human desires…”
If he were still capable of such a thing he would cry but tears were not going to fall now or ever again. He’d cried everything he had in him when his first love left him, now all that was left was an empty well, a well just deep enough for two bodies to be lost forever.
”In the beginning you were nothing more than order, Mr Laszlo, a command for me to follow through on. You posed a possible threat to his Empire and for that reason alone you must be dispatched.”
Cable sighs as he gently lowers the photos, his eyes still locked onto them both.
”However things changed, you showed me something, something that really resonated with me. Your love for Alexis hit me right at home, it showed me how weak and feeble you really are but more than that it showed me how weak any of us could become.”
His hand shook a little as it glided over the top of the pictures.
”Your love for that woman, your blind obedience to her while your career circled the drain, your inability to put aside your feelings long enough to make a run in IWF, all sicken me. You’re incredibly weak, incredibly foolish and incredibly stupid. For weeks now I have gone behind your back and man handled your woman, I have taken her from right under your nose, I have choked her, tormented her, I have scarred her for the rest of her life and your only recourse was what? A sneak attack? A street fight? Words!? YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING!”
Cable’s head turns slightly so now his eyes are locked solely on you.
”You have done nothing to defend her honor, nothing to defend your own. You’re a fool, Mr Laszlo, a damn idiot for demanding a match with me. Do you not understand? I am in this to destroy you. This isn’t about wins or losses for me, this is about tearing you down to your very foundations and utterly annihilating you. This is about ending the career of Mike Laszlo once and for all. You failed to keep me from your woman, failed to stop me from taking her whenever I so chose, failed to use your love to protect her and now this coming pay per view there will be no rules, no limits, I will be able to do whatever I like to you, hurt you however badly I wish, the arena will be my playground and your nightmare and you think you stand a chance? Mr Laszlo, you do not know who it is you are dealing with…”
Flashes of Monday night demand your attention, Xavier Cross seemingly dead in the middle of the ring, Ryan Blade laid out and the entirety of the Rebellion left unable to assist.
”You are dealing the Empire of the God of Xtreme. You are dealing with his heralds, his army, his mass murdering marauders as they lay waste to whomever be foolish enough to stand in our way. Ryan Blade put his pride before the Empire and he paid the price, Xavier Cross would not stand down when given a free pass and he was made into a sacrifice. You have but one chance to retreat to safety, to take the love of your life and hide yourselves away before I find you and end you.”
His eyes never left yours even though you swore you could still see the bleeding image of Xavier Cross behind his.
”I do not make idle threats, Mr Laszlo, I’ve simply been toying with you, pushing you, testing your limits to see how much is too much. You’ve passed Mr Laszlo, you are seemingly a man of honor… Unfortunately your honor has lead you to an impasse with the Empire, with myself. For when I look at you I see the weakness in myself. I see the love I could be capable of. I see the woman I could love. I see the family I could have and it makes me sick. It makes me wish to do away with this match entirely and just render you absolutely useless from the neck down as I crush the bones in your neck with my bare hands.”
His voice is steady, cold, sincere and it scares you.
”You had your chance to end this nightmare, you had four weeks to do with me as you please and you failed at every turn to end me. Now it is my turn, now I will have my way with you, now you will see the error of your ways, you will see you feelings for Alexis to be your greatest weakness but it will be too late to feel anything else but regret. Regret that you didn’t kill me when you had the chance. I will have no regrets come the following morning, only a renewed sense of purpose knowing I fulfilled my Lords wishes and brought a swift but painful end to one of his adversaries. I will have no regrets knowing I killed in you what I hate most about myself.”
Cable stood from his seat and brushed past the us on his way out. Curiosity gets the better of us as we lean in to see what it is Cable was looking at when we found him. There before us are two photos, both of them depict different images of the same thing…
Amber Richards and Gjenrei…
Together….
”He knows…”
Amber sat huddled in her hotel room wearing nothing more than a tank top and some jeans, her phone pressed against her ear.
”What makes you say that?”
The voice on the other end was familiar to us and none too surprising with the images of those pictures still in our minds.
”I can feel it… Where are you?”
”Not far.”
”Come and get me.”
Amber’s voice was filled with fear as she hung up, praying that her other lover in a mask would reach her before Cable did.
*Knock*
The knock startled her to the point that she nearly yelped, but she held it in.
”AMBER!!!!”
A fist suddenly came flying through the door sending splinters of wood everywhere, Amber jumped up from where she was seated at the back of the bed and quickly pressed herself up against the wall. Cable’s fist pulled back and then came through a second time, widening the first hole, he reached for the door and unlocked it.
”Cable… Please…”
”Please what!?”
He snapped as he stepped into the hotel room. Amber was backed into a corner and had no where to go, no way to get past him.
”Don’t’ do this…”
”Don’t do what?”
”I DON’T KNOW!!! DON’T HURT ME!!!”
Cable slowly closed the gap between them as Amber pressed herself as hard against the wall as she could, praying that she would become a part of the plaster. Cable stood before her now, towering over her as his breathing became more and more labored as he felt himself losing control to his rage.
”Don’t hurt you? DON’T HURT YOU!? YOU MEAN LIKE YOU HURT ME!!??”
”Cable!”
”SAY YOU FUCKED HIM! SAY YOU FUCKED GJENREI!!!”
Cable’s hand shot out without him even thinking, his hand cracked against her soft flesh and Amber fell to the floor, clutching herself as Cable just looked down on her with disgust.
”Say you fucked him.”
Something suddenly changed in Amber as she looked up at Cable, her whole demeanor changed as she stood back up and gone was the sobbing fearful woman from before, replaced with someone much stronger.
”You’re damn right I did and I liked it too. Sometimes, after you’d fall asleep, I’d sneak into his hotel room just to suck him off with your stink still on me. I fucking loved it.”
Amber seductively placed her hand on Cable’s chest as brushed up against him.
”You’re not even half the man he is. Literally.”
You could almost feel Cable’s rage.
”SHUT UP!!!”
He reached for her again but she easily slipped past him in his blind rage and ran quickly to the door. Cable turned and glared at her, imagining what her last breath would feel like.
”Amber, I am going to ki-“
”GJENREI!”
Suddenly the other half of Honorbound stepped into the door frame and Amber fell against him, the tears came fast and hard and Gjenrei could od nothing but hold her against himself as he and Cable just stared at each other.
”So here we are with everything finally laid out before us.”
”So it would seem.”
”I hate you both.”
”I know.”
Gjenrei quickly ushers Amber out of the door but before they are gone she smiles one last time at Cable. He’s unsure how long he stands until he falls, how long he kneels before he drops, how long he holds the pain back before relishing in it… How long before he kills them all.
”Betrayed…”
It was the only word he could utter at the moment, his eyes still locked on the photographs before him. His breathing was heavy, filled with anger and contempt but his poster denoted one of calm.
