Day 1: 12:13 p.m.
"Ok where are you, you little bastard." Vince McMahon mumbled searching the crowd that was all staring at the leaving Bullet Club only to find nothing. He spun around in the chair getting on his computer. He went to click on the Shield logo which would call them but he stopped realizing they didn't have their gear on since they were helping muttered some curse words to himself wanting, no not wanting, needing to find Steve Austin.
"I'll find him if it's the last thing I do." He meant it. He'd find that Rattlesnake and make him pay for disrespecting the camp. He'd never actually kick the kid out since it was all fun and games, but at that moment. It wasn't a game. McMahon wasn't truly angry at the kid, he enjoyed the fun but it was the first day of camp.
Usually on the first day that prank would happen and it would become a game of who can find Stone Cold Steve Austin. Usually Vince would just have his lap dogs, the Shield go hunt him out but they were busy so he was on his own. Besides it would give Vince an excuse to not have to work but instead have some fun.
He stood up examining the camp before him unable to see the teenager. He would have to go detective mode. The chairman made his way out of the office and down the grand staircase out onto the campus. He recognized a lot of kids there but he couldn't stop and talk. He was on a mission, to hunt a snake like a dog.
He stopped on the road that led to the cabins seeing the three NJPW kids making their way down the road but something in the corner of Vince's eye made him stop. Next to the big house some trees were rustling and there wasn't really any wind. Meaning there was only one reason that the trees were rustling.
The chairman began to make his way towards the trees slowly and cautiously. When dealing with a Rattlesnake you can never be too careful. They're always trying to sneak up on ya or trick you. Well no Rattlesnake could beat Vincent Kennedy McMahon.
Without making a single sound Vince snuck up on the tree suspecting that Steve Austin was somewhere behind it. He slowly and quietly went around the tree only to see absolutely nothing. Vince frowned confused and continued searching around the trees. After a couple of minutes he gave up knowing that Steve wasn't there.
He left the trees alone and made his way back to the road looking around. Where would Stone Cold Steve Austin hide? He could easily hide in the deep parts of the woods but he hardly ever made it that complicated. Usually it was hard to find him but with enough time and effort you'd find him.
He stood there for a minute thinking of where Austin had hid in the past since he wouldn't do the same place twice. He had done the school, the cabins, Shield Island, and the Performance Center so those were off the list of possibilities. The amphitheater was the first thing that came to mind is Vince began making his way towards the large space.
It was in the open so if Austin was there, he'd be easy to find. Which is why Vince doubted Austin would be stupid enough to hide there. It didn't matter though, a lead was a lead and he would check them all.
As the chairman began making his way towards the amphitheater the Bullet Club had begun searching for the Rattlesnake to help Mr. McMahon. Their actions didn't go unnoticed by the Shield who wanted to talk with them, in private. Minutes later Vince stood in the center of the amphitheater not seeing a Texan Rattlesnake anywhere.
There was nowhere to hide since there were only bleachers going in a circle and a fire pit in the middle. "Ok where are ya?" The man asked as he continued his journey looking around him. The docks on the lake were good places to hide, especially in the boats which would make this a long search.
There were at least a dozen boats on the big dock and they were all pretty big. It was times like these that Vince wished he could fly, or have super speed. Either one would be really useful. As Vince walked past the campus he stopped looking at all of the campers. He could utilize them and have everyone search the camp.
That would be too easy and where was the fun in that? If a camper happened to volunteer and help him search then Vince would be grateful, but he wouldn't ask anyone to help. Vince McMahon continued his journey down to the lake to continue his harrowing search.
For half an hour he continued his search only to come up short against the teenage Rattlesnake. Vince had to admit defeat, he lost to a teenager. He sighed feeling ashamed but there was nowhere Steve could be. He made his way back to the big house and back to his office.
As he opened the door he saw an interesting sight. It was the four NJPW boys and they had a nice little gift with them. Stone Cold Steve Austin sat on the couch clearly knocked out making Vince at a loss for words. It was the nicest thing anyone had done from him so he had to reward these boys.
Vince looked at Finn whose neck was red meaning he got hit by the famous Stone Cold Stunner. Hopefully he got a couple of shots in before he was struck by the devastating move. "Very good," he looked at AJ smiling knowing these boys could be useful, "where'd you find him?" AJ sighed hating the long story.
"Long story short, he was going around the cabins." The Texan boy had a bruise on the left side of his jaw and the side of his head. Vince nodded, "good. I'll get in contact with you about a reward, but for now good job."
