Chapter 2- The deed.
Within the next three hours, Kane was in search of Daniel. He found him pacing back and forth in the locker room. He watched him walk back and forth without pause, his head didn't even lift as Kane walked into the room. "Daniel" Kane said aloud. No response came. "Daniel" Kane said a little louder. Still nothing.
"GOAT!"
Instantly he got his attention. "I knew it! You still don't see me as a tag team partner!"
"You didn't hear me call your name, you only seem to respond to negative words. Not good"
"Since when the hell did you become Dr. Shelby?!"
"I didn't, I just don't want to go back into anger management" Kane snapped back. "I want you to stop thinking about this weak link crap. Let's talk about this."
"We already talked, it's easy for you to say what you want since you are seven feet tall. Me, I am not. So don't your dare talk to me about being the smaller man in the fight!"
"I have been. I faced the Great Khali and Big show, both bigger than me. You also weren't here when my brother decided to teach me a lesson in picking on those smaller than me."
"I don't believe a word of it." Bryan snapped back. "Besides, everyone is smaller than you!"
Kane rolled his eyes. "Fine, you think size is everything. Come talk to me tomorrow then, it's put up or shut up."
"What the hell does that suppose to mean?" Daniel demanded.
Kane stood before him, staring down his tag team partner and looking him dead in the eyes. "I will prove to you, once and for all. Size isn't everything."
He walked out of the locker room then and there. When he went into the hallway, he found Chris Jericho there. "Let me guess, you overheard the Deadman and I?"
Jericho shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe, but let me say this… Wow" Jericho stepped off the wall as he looked to Kane. "You got my respect from here on. If I can help you…"
"Last time you tried to help, you wanted to be sure that I didn't return to my normal self again and forever be trapped in Rey's body. Sorry Chris, I don't forget things like that."
"Fair enough. But, what if Shield gets wind of this?"
Kane looked down the hallway. "They already have." Something moved from the far end of the hall and he could hear the squeaking of heavy boots. "I doubt they really know what's going on."
"Will it make a difference? I mean, how?"
"I don't even know if this is going to work Chris. All I know is I need to try, besides, I always enjoy it when I prove my point and was right all along."
