A FEW DAYS LATER
STAMFORD, CT
Dean and Roman stared up at the golden plate upon the oak wood door. They tilted their heads slowly to the left then slowly to the right. The plate said: VINCE MCMAHON.
"Have you-uh- ever been called to the boss's office before?" Dean asked, hands on his hips as he looked at Roman. Dean adjusted his navy blue jeans a little. Roman licked his teeth which made a clicking sound before shaking his head. "Nope…" Dean nodded. Roman crossed his arms.
"We're probably gonna get fired, aren't we?" Roman asked.
"Yep." Dean said bluntly with a smile. "I've always wanted to flip burgers…" Roman and Dean looked at each other before laughing hysterically.
"GET IN HERE!"
Roman and Dean jumped. They looked at each other, frightened before opening the door and walking in.
Roman and Dean had their hands folded on the desk as they stared at the other end of the table. There sat Vince McMahon, with a small smile on his face. He had on a light yellow suit and a red tie. To his left sat Stephanie McMahon who looked pissed for a lack of a better word (hence the shouting for them to get into the office) and to his right was Triple H who was on his phone most likely not wanting to be there. Dean and Roman glanced at each other in fear.
Seth came limping into the room, his face cringing in pain from each step. Stephanie's face softened a little as she got up and pulled a chair out for him. Seth gave her a little smile as he hobbled over to the chair and sat down, He breathed out a sigh of relief from getting off his feet. Roman and Dean exchanged a smirk. Stephanie sat back down and flipped her hair off her shoulder.
Vince cleared his throat. "Thank you boys for coming."
"Anytime, Mr. McMahon." Dean said, letting one of his arms dangle behind the chair.
"Your performance on Raw was really pushing the boundaries on the PG ratings. Now, I understand when you want to portray a certain, uh, passion or emotion during your part but that was...a bit too far in my opinion. So...what exactly happened?"
"That's a question for your son-in-law." Roman started. "He's the one who didn't talk to us about Seth breaking up the Shield." Triple H looked up from his phone before sliding it into his suit pocket. "Alright guys, Seth and I came up with a plan that would help kickstart your singles career. The reason we didn't tell you guys is because we have been discussing breaking up the Shield for, what, two months now? You should have been able to 'sense the situation' that me and Randy were portraying!"
"You can't just spring the break-up on us, Paul!" Dean spat. "We know that we have been discussing the break-up for a while but when it's gonna actually happen, you have to let US know, not just Seth! We are a TEAM!"
"It's not just Seth's career that's riding on this, but our's too!" Roman added.
"But that doesn't mean you have to 'Hulk-out' and beat the crap out of him! I mean look what you did to Seth! The man can barely walk without feeling pain!Don't you guys think you went too far? " Stephanie asked.
Roman and Dean leaned forward in their seats.
"Nah, we're just getting started, Steph." Roman snarled.
"Alright, everyone just calm down." Vince started. "This is what we're going to do, no 'ifs, ands, or buts' about it."
MONDAY NIGHT RAW
CLEVELAND, OHIO
"Welcome everyone to Monday Night Raw! We're here in Cleveland, Ohio and the place is JUMPING!" Michael Cole announced. "We'll take you back two weeks ago on RAW where it seemed that Seth Rollins attempted to break up the Shield at the command of Triple H."
"Yes he did, but things didn't go well when Dean and Roman Reigns got a hold of him!" Jerry added.
"They were acting like complete animals, attacking Seth Rollins like that! They should be fired!" JBL said.
Michael Cole shook his head at JBL. "Since that incident, we have not seen the Shield and it makes me wonder, was that the last of the Shield?" he asked his table mates.
"I hope they weren't fired, the WWE Universe loves 'em!" Jerry said.
"The WWE does not want people like that who defy the Authority! They are their bosses and they should respect their decisions!" JBL said.
"So if Triple H told someone to hit you with a chair, you would let them, JBL?" Cole asked. "If that's what the Authority wanted, then yes."
"No you wouldn't." Jerry added.
"JBL you won't even let me-" Michael Cole began.
~SIERRA. HOTEL. INDIA. ECHO. LIMA. DELTA.~SHIELD.
"Uh-oh!" Cole shouted. The crowd went berserk, screaming "YES!" and jumping up and down.
"They're back!" Jerry exclaimed.
It was strange though for no Shield members started to come down the stairs. Instead, Seth Rollins came limping out from backstage in an all black suit with a black tie and black button down. His hair was tied back in a ponytail and his face scrunched every time his right leg moved. The applause quickly turned to boos.
"It's Seth!"
"He's alive!" Jerry said.
"Seth Rollins is starting off RAW tonight, still feeling the effects of Dean and Roman's attack. His right leg seems to be bothering him a lot." Michael Cole reported.
As Seth Rollins made his way to the ring, a cameraman handed him a microphone. Seth Rollins limped up the stairs and went into the ring. The chants began.
ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE!
Seth looked around at the WWE Universe before raising the mic to his lips. "Alright, alright, alright, settle down now. I get it, you guys are pretty mad at me but let me explain myself alright? You see-"
"Hang on, hang on! I gotta hear this!" said Dean's voice on a mic. The crowd started cheering again as Dean and Roman descended the stairs. "I gotta hear this. I need a good laugh!"
"This can't be good…" Cole said.
"Better get security out here." JBL added.
Roman went to the time keeper's area and grabbed two chairs. He threw them into the ring and rolled in along with Dean.
"No no no no no no no!" Seth shouted, fumbling back into a corner. "Stay away from me!"
"Calm down, Seth. We're not gonna do anything." Roman began on his mic, opening the chair. "...At least not yet," he finished, sitting down.
Dean sat down and leaned forward in his chair, holding the mic in his unique way. "Now talk."
Seth continued to "hug" the corner, not saying a word. Dean got fed up and kicked the chair he was sitting in over. "Talk dammit!" he shouted, getting close to Seth. Seth was shaking slightly, looking all over Dean's face in fear.
"Calm down, Dean!" Jerry advised. Roman leaned to his left and moved his jaw around as he glared at Seth. Seth looked into his eyes before looking back at Dean.
Dean jumped up on the second rope and looked down at Seth. "I SAID 'TALK' YOU SON OF A BITCH!" he shouted in his face. Seth's eyes widened in fear.
"Come on, Dean. Back off." Roman motioned with his hand for Dean to come to him. "You're about to make him piss his pants. Come on." Dean continued to glare at Seth before sticking his tongue to the side, smiling, and hopping down. Dean stood next to Roman and started pacing back and forth. Roman shook his head and said 'What's wrong with you?' off mic with a smirk. Roman gestured for Seth to talk, relaxing in the chair.
"T-The Authority was threatening me…" Seth began, mumbling in the mic. Roman leaned forward in his chair. "T-T-They said that if I didn't betray you guys, they would fire me! A-And believe me I tried to resist them but...they brought Mr. McMahon in and...I had to do it, okay!?"
"Triple H couldn't handle the fact that we destroyed Evolution. Cause at Payback and Extreme Rules, we kicked their asses!" Roman Reigns smirked at that and nodded. Dean rolled his shoulders as he hopped up and down next to Roman. "Triple H said that I was the smartest one in the Shield so…"
Roman leaned back in his chair in disbelief as the WWE Universe booed loudly. "He said that since I'm the smartest, it would make sense that-"
"Woah, woah, WOAH, WOAH, WOAH!" Dean yelled, getting progressively louder as he motioned with his hand. Seth went clammering back to the corner. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! That's what Triple H said, not me!"
"How is he the smartest one?" Dean asked Roman, who only shrugged. The crowd laughed at this.
"That's all he got from that?!" Jerry asked with a laugh. "What's there to get? Seth Rollins IS the smartest one." JBL added.
"I mean personally, I think that I'm the smartest one." Dean said, wiggling his fingers on his chest with a smile. Roman chuckled to himself before looking at Dean. "You're not the smartest. Dude, you dropped outta high school."
Dean thought to himself, waivering. "Okay, I'm street smart." Roman laughed some more along with the crowd. He walked past Dean over to Seth, putting a hand on his shoulder and squeezing it. "I get it. I get it. You had to do what you had to do. I respect that." Roman informed, patting and shaking Seth by the shoulder. Seth nodded repeatedly and smiled, saying 'Thank you, man.'
"But that doesn't mean that I'm just gonna forget what you did." Seth's face fell. "L-Look, I didn't want to do this! Triple H made me-!"
"Shut up!" Roman commanded. "You tried to end my career. You tried to end Dean's career." Dean put his right arm around Roman's shoulder, laughing and using his thumb to play with his bottom lip. "You think that you can betray the Hounds of Justice just like that and bygones will be bygones, Seth? That what you think?"
Dean laughed into the mic. "You know Roman, I think we should give him another chance. I think Seth Rollins should prove that he's still loyal to the Shield…" Dean placed his right hand on top of Roman's head. "We need to test him." The crowd applauded.
"Test him? What does that mean?" Michael Cole asked.
"I-I'll do anything! I'm loyal to the Shield, I LIVE for the Shield! Please, I'll do ANYTHING!" Seth pleaded.
"You know, I agree, Dean." Roman said, nodding. Dean pulled Roman's head close to his and whispered in his ear. A great big smile came across Roman's lips as he chuckled, nodding in agreement.
Roman patted Dean on the back as he laughed. He got really close to Seth, looking down at him.
"You are to do exactly as we say." Roman informed, gesturing to him and Dean with his thumb.
"From now on, you're gonna be the Shield's BITCH!"
Seth Rollins paled as his eyes widened.
"YES! YES! YES!"
