Chapter 3- A plot in motion.
CM Punk was more than just bitter for losing his long locks of purity, he was down right angry to the notion that Kane took it upon himself to ensure he would be saved bald. Why? Who knows, but with the way he handed the Straight Edge society, Punk knew he had to get that kind of power on his side. An enforcer more intimidating than Luke Gallows! Punk and Kane did have a small history before he was called up to the main event, but that was the past. Punk was there for the future of the WWE, he had to save it before it destroyed itself!
He sat in his locker room, staring at the laptop. It was a constant stream video from the abandoned complex they left Kane. He watched with a contempt smile as Kane tried at the door. But it was iron latched from the other side and reinforced for security measures. He watched as Kane paced about like a caged animal and knew it would only be a matter of time before he cracked. Just because the man claimed he much rather be alone, doesn't mean he yurned for the company of his fellow man.
Luke Gallows watched from a distance as he sneered to the idea of Kane joining their organization. "He can't be controlled, I thought you knew that by now" Luke muttered.
Punk however heard every word of it, he turned and threw his chair to the far corner, just missing Serena. "You dare question me? Just wait, you will see for yourself. Once Kane welcomes straight edge into his life, he will be just as loyal as the rest of you!"
"But why Kane?" Serena asked. "He seems more trouble than what he's worth, and doesn't he have a brother?"
Punk smiled and nodded. "Exactly" he said in a sadistic tone. "Why else would I want him? It takes blood to reach out to blood, imagine Kane spreading the word of Straight Edge into the hearts of all he comes in contact with, especially his brother. The Undertaker will join us shortly after, then the sky is the limit! Do you see how?" Punk asked as he turned back to Luke. "You use the smaller fish, to get the bigger catch…"
"I wish I had your confidence, master. But I see your vision now, the great Undertaker, calling forth to his creatures of the night, all of them converted into Straight Edge followers!" Gallows said in utter amazement. "After the Undertaker, who else joins us?"
"Now, now Luke. One at a time, our word will spread, and the world will be there to listen! Patience is the key… We just need Kane to crack first…"

Mysterio was stunned to the fact that the Undertaker was stalking him, so much so he began to try and explain himself in fluent Spanish. Yet the Deadman couldn't make a lick of it. "Ray, slow down, and speak in English. I know a little Spanish, but I can't decrypt it that fast!" Taker said slowly and calmly.
Ray took in a deep breath and spoke slower. "Kane is missing, he's been gone for a few weeks, and ever since he helped me get my revenge on Punk. I have a feeling he is behind the disappearance"
Taker's head only nodded, but he also knew Kane liked to take his time off after doing something dastardly to another human being, what he helped do to Punk should have been no different. However, if a man like Mysterio… one of Kane's former targets became so concerned with the missing man, it would be reason for alarm. "We were to have a tag match against Punk and Gallows, but when no one could find him, Teddy cancelled it. I didn't know about the match until now, something has to be wrong! Kane would want to embarrass Punk. Human suffering and all that, you know?"
The logical reasoning made Taker agree with the concept. "But there is no proof, and Kane does tend to hide himself when he doesn't want to be found." Taker announced.
"What if he didn't want to go into hiding? We need to remember that too" Mysterio protested. "Please Deadman, trust me on this. I feel it, Punk is up to something… and he has Kane"
The Undertaker couldn't argue the logic any longer, he only gave a silent nod of his head to Mysterio. "Where do we start?"
