I answered the phone unsure what to say to the woman I thought was my mother for so many years until I turned 15. I hadn't realized how exhausted I was with being toyed with until I almost about broke down hearing MY Mama's voice. The only mama I remembered.

"Hey Matt." She said softly in a comforting tone. Her southern accent always found a way to sooth my racing thoughts no matter what emotion filled them.

"Mama." I sobbed out desperately trying to keep quiet. I couldn't believe I was breaking down over this. But wouldn't you to if you didn't know your left from your right? Who's for you or against you, I knew just about nothing of myself. I was tired of being lied to. More importantly I was in dangerous territory, I had no clue what Mark, Kane, and their mom was up to. Ruling WWF of course but by what means exactly. 

"It's okay baby this is what I was trying to protect you from ok. You follow along to everything they tell you, you understand me, don't be aggressive." She said comfortingly.

"They're trying to change me into him. They dyed my hair black like his." I told her.

"I know. Their hope is we won't be able to tell the difference between you two, but I'll know okay." Her voice said. I nodded like she could see me, of course she’d  know I nodded. She's been my mother ever since I remembered. She knew I heard her and was just in shock.

"Matt one more important thing, don't fall for their mind games. Think with your head, be smart about what you say to them. Mark especially will try to mold you. He wants you to follow him like a lost puppy, and you follow his every word until we find you, okay?" She asked.

"Yes Ma'am." I responded. 

"There's someone else who wants to hear from you." She said, and I heard movement on the phone.

"Hey Baby." I heard Eliza's voice say on the other end. 

"Hey!" I said happy to hear her voice again.

"Are you alright?" She asked nervously. I wouldn't dare disappoint her with bad news.

"Yes, Im perfectly fine I can do this Eliza. Have a little more faith in me." I said jokingly to which she chuckled. 

"There's one more person who wants to talk to you." She said, and I once again heard movement on the phone. 

"Hi Daddy!" I heard Evelyn's little voice whisper.

"Hey sweet girl, you alright?" I said softly. I just wanted to hold her in my arms and hear her sing about chicken nuggets again. I smiled at the thought. 

"Yes, I miss you." She said sniffling.

"Hey baby don't cry, I'll be back in no time I promise." I said wiping the my own tears from earlier and trying to keep the new ones down. I just wanted to hold my girls again.

"Okay, I love you daddy, see you in no time." She said sadly. 

"I love you too honey. Tell your mama and grandma I love them to okay? Daddies gotta go, bye I love you guys." I said quickly as I heard footsteps. I hated to rush off the phone but I didn't want anyone hearing me talk to them.

"Hey mom told me to tell you dinners ready." Kane said before walking off. I got up and followed behind him to the dining room. I sat down at the dining table quietly keeping my eyes glued in front of me. Before I knew it, a plate was sat in front of me and everyone was sat down around the table. I stared down at the food skeptically, unsure whether to eat it or not. 

Mark smirked at me from across the table not saying a word about my skeptical state of the food. I stared at him almost asking if they had done anything to it. He ignored me and ate his food nonchalantly. Meanwhile Kane watched the whole thing unfold from next to us at the end of the table with his arms crossed as he leaned back in his chair. I looked at him begging for honesty suddenly I heard a voice in my head.
