Chapter 2- The title.
Stephanie went over the contract time and time again. No matter what Daniel Bryan did next, it would all work in her favor! He wouldn't be back in time to defend the title property, therefore after 30 days, the title is no longer his and is stripped! Stephanie was rather proud of herself, but she wasn't the only one pleased with the recent events. Lingering in the corner, stood Kane.
His arms crossed as the smile grew across his lips. "I told you, I would get it done." He said.
"I never doubted you the least bit. Now, all we need to do is make a match, if he doesn't show up…"
"I become your new champion." Said Kane.
Stephanie was about to correct him, however she only smiled and nodded. "And Daniel starts all over again right from the bottom!"
She went through the contract once more to ensure all the loop holes were covered. Pleased with herself, Stephanie decided to step out and make the announcement with Kane close to her side. They would stand in the middle of the ring of a sold out arena, all the people chanting for Bryan and yet she knew he would not appear tonight. She contented with the course of boos and screams from the displeased fans of the WWE Universe, however she soon got her words in and made the match official.
"Tonight will be day 30 for Daniel Bryan's opportunity to defend the title, if he does not do so, the title will be forfeited!" Stephanie announced.
The crowd booed and hissed loud enough to deafen her, but she enjoyed it.
Before either one could leave the ring, the lights on the ramp suddenly went out. Smoke began to billow up through the floor as the crowd assumed the return of the Undertaker was at hand.
Blue fire erupted from the ramp way, a single light came on and someone stood in the middle of the ramp, wearing the WWE titles on his shoulders. Stephanie's eyes squinted as she tried to see who was there, yet shook her head. It wasn't Bryan. He was far too big. Before she could demand that the stranger show himself, he began to speak.
"This ends, now!"
Stephanie froze as she turned towards Kane. There was no microphone in his hand, and yet the voice she heard, she swore was his. The light offered only an outline silhouette of the man, she could see no features of him. Only that he was tall and strong.
"Who, are you?" Stephanie said slowly.
The voice erupted into the same demonic laughter worthy of Kane. "Your worst nightmare. My name is Kaden. And I stand before you to represent my best friend, Daniel Bryan. I have come to end this madness you have set upon him, and rest assured, when I am through, it will end."
Stephanie turned to Kane who kept staring at the stranger on the ramp, he has yet to move, let alone blink at the sight of him. "That's so sweet of you, it is a shame that Daniel Bryan cannot fight his own battles." Said Stephanie.
The voice snickered. "That's so shallow of you Stephanie, considering you have never fought any of your own."
Her face flustered. "How dare you!"
"Indeed, I dare to say what no one else will. Now, about the matter at hand…"
"No, I refuse to speak another word to you until I see your face with my own eyes, who the hell do you think you are!"
The man named Kaden paused, he began to step forward and into the light, the crowd gasped in shock. "As I have said, I am your worst nightmare." His eye shifted and began to stare at Kane. "Hi Dad."
