Chapter 14- The wake

Bryan was pissed, to say the least.

When he recovered from the knock out, he woke in his old body. However he lucked out compared to Kane, he was banged up and bruised in areas he didn't he hit during his match with Daniel. Then again, he was told by Chris Jericho that no one caught Kane's falling body after the trigger word was said aloud. Daniel turned his rage towards the Undertaker who sat in wait for both of the men to wake. He stared the Deadman fearlessly in the eyes. "Who gave you the right to change me back? I didn't want to change back!"

Taker's face remained stoic as Bryan vented his frustrations out. He didn't move let alone blink during Daniel's rant. But when he finally silenced himself, Taker spoke. "You done?" he asked.

Daniel glared at him. "I'll take that as a yes. Now sit your ass down."

Bryan reluctantly sat down next to Kane, the two men glared at one another as Taker looked between the two. "Now then, we got the hot air out of him, let me tell you why the hell I agreed to do this in the first place. One, I needed a good laugh. Two, I didn't get my laugh at the start of it all. Three, it wasn't as funny as I thought it would be!"

Kane stared at his brother oddly. "You switched us because you thought it would be funny?"

"Hell yeah!" Taker said. "But you two were no fun what so ever! I got more chuckles out of Sandow than I did the two of you combined!... Oh yeah, I left him in the basement, remind me on that."

Bryan wasn't the least bit impressed to the Undertaker's words. "I wanted to be taller, I wanted to be stronger than anyone else in the locker room. I had that, and you took it from me!" Bryan stormed out of the room, he ran by someone rather abruptly. The person he cut off curiously peeked his head into the room. Kane at first couldn't believe it.

"Rob?"

The smile spread as Rob Van Dam came into the locker room. "Hey Kane! What up? Who was the goat?"

"My tag partner." He muttered.

Rob only smiled and nodded his head. "Cool, cool… You do know that he looks like a goat?"

"Well aware," Kane rose from the bench as he turned to the Deadman. "I know you did this as a favor to me. Next time, just tell him that."

Kane walked out to nurse his sore and battered body. Rob turned to the Undertaker with a wide grin. "Something tells me he needs a new tag partner!"

"Quite frankly, you would have been more of a help to them than that damn doctor they hired."

Rob smiled as his head nodded. "Yeah, but what can you do? Maybe I can work with them, who knows." Rob suddenly paused. "Do you know what that screaming was coming from the basement?"

Taker smiled. "Yeah…." But said nothing more.

Meanwhile, in the basement.

Sandow woke from the knock out he was given, he tried to move but found himself tied, not just his hands but his legs as well. Luckily for him, his hands weren't behind him. They were in front. He smiled to his luck and figured he could chew his way out of the rope, until he realized the rope was thick and chaffed his hands. "Who the hell puts someone's hands in the Gordian knot?" he looked down and noticed his feet were as well. "OH COME ON!" he growled.

He spent the better part of his night screaming for help. Unaware the superstars heard him loud and clear, but they wanted to enjoy the time without his company a while longer…

THE END.
