Chapter 8 Kane under pressure

As the next contest began to start for the second elimination, Vince had allowed the first place team decides when they wanted to dance. Kelly wanted to go first as usual. Kane however wanted to go last. "We went first last time" he muttered.

"We're going first!" Kelly snapped back. "Come on, we got to get ready" She dragged Kane to the change room once more as all the men looked on.

"Damn, I can't believe I am saying this but… Poor Kane!" announced Morrison.

Taker agreed. He had never seen Kane so miserable before, but a part of his brother must be enjoying it. After all, he is kicking ass in a new way!

As the hours ticked by until the contest was to be started. The men were preparing for their dance. Taker had managed to get Lillian to teach him the dance they were to do, as well as convinced the Deadman to dress up as one of the characters from the movie to set the mood.

As Vince called for the contest to start, no one had seen Kelly or Kane until show time. Vince went out to introduced the show and as he welcomed the first place winners of last week out onto the stage. The lights were dimmed as the other teams rushed to the back to watch. The started off dark, as Kelly Kelly wore regular looking clothing. The song was Everything Burns from the Fantastic Four sound track. Kelly danced alone until the chores came. Kane then appeared out of the darkness, he was shirtless as he took hold of Kelly and began to spin her around the dance floor in a rather aggressive manner. Yet it changed when it came to the next verse of the song. The dance switched and became calm as he took her into his arms gently in a slow dance motion. Yet as the song grew more aggressive, so did their dancing. Kelly was dipped, spun and lifted into the air as the two managed to stay synchronized. When the song ended. Kelly teased a kiss to Kane as the light went down, they were engulfed in shadows and vanished from sight.

"Damn it all to hell!" cursed Matt Hardy. "We're going to have to break his legs"

"Where the bat?" questioned Jeff.

"Hey, were dancing here. Not figure skating!" snapped back the Undertaker. "Besides, you've see Kane. He's miserable, so back off"

The Hardys growled lowly to themselves as Kane came to the back. Kelly was ripping him a new one sort of speak. "You were going too fast! The timing was all wrong Kane, how many times did we rehearse this!?"

"I'm sorry, nerves got the best of me!" he snapped back. "You can't expect to get lemonade aid out of oranges" he growled as he stormed away from Kelly.

Kane paused as the guys stared at him. "So who wants to switch partners?" he asked aloud.

No man said a word as Taker learned he was going up next. "What!" he demanded.

"Yeah, you. Next" Vince announced.

Taker rose from his chair and warned the boys. "He who laughs first, dies last and the slowest!"
