Chapter 3- Vicky

Kane and Matt held her under the light within a dark locker room. She sat poised as she always did in her wheelchair, and just to humor her, Kane put the locks on the wheels. "No where to roll… nowhere to run… even though you could" he whispered evilly within her ear.

"What the hell is all this? What are you two doing! I am your General Manager!" she protested. As Kane dealt with Vicky, Matt was asking Teddy Long some questions. Matt was polite to Teddy, after all he had to deal with Vicky and Edge often.

Matt smiled as Kane interrogated Vicky. "So, do you know anything about the missing hat of the Undertaker?" he asked.

Teddy shook his head no. "Sorry player, if I did, you would be the first to know, I promise you that!"

"We have been told that Vicky was in the vicinity of the hat…"

"How can she be? I have to wheel her around all day in that damn chair, not once has she gotten out of it… unless it was for the bathroom. She made me stop there a few times… always by Taker's locker room door though…" he paused to the idea. "Perhaps there a Diva at work in this as well?" he questioned.

Matt wrote down the information, not knowing Kane was tuning Vicky out and listening in. Before Vicky could finish her ranting rampage, Kane got up and left the room, calling Matt to follow.

They closed the door and began to walk down to the women's bathroom. "What now Kane, what did Vicky say to you?"

"Nothing, she just kept bitching at me" he growled. "I was more interested in what Teddy told you. The women's washroom, there's one in the GM's office, why did Vicky go to the one by Taker's? As well, we haven't entertained the idea of a woman suspect"

"Who did you have in mind?" Matt asked.

"Taker was recently partnered with a Diva to keep her safe, she wanted to be by someone who knew would look out for her… Deadman was chosen. Or volunteered, I don't know now a days" Kane muttered. "Michelle McCool is the only Diva to get close enough to my brother. Perhaps, she has a hidden motive herself?" he asked.

Matt nodded in agreement. "Admit it, you read the Hardy Boys series!"

Kane didn't say anything; his face remained stern and serious as they approached the Undertaker's locker room door. Kane knocked. "GO AWAY! UNLESS YOU GOT MY HAT!"

"Take, it's Kane!"

"YOU GOT IT?"

"No, Taker, when was the last time you saw Michelle McCool?" he called to the door.

Kane was rather stunned to hear the door unlock and open just a crack. "Why? What are you getting at?"

"Just checking all the angles, when was the last time you saw Michelle?" Matt questioned.

"I dropped her off at the arena, that's all. She went to the bathroom as I went to talk to Vince"

Ah, a possible led! Kane nodded and thanked Taker. He continued to walk Matt down the hallway, away from the woman's washroom. "Kane, what does it mean?"

"It means, we are going to barge in on ladies in the bathroom." Kane said with a grin.

"What are we preschoolers?! I am no going into the woman's bathroom! No way!"

"Oh grow up Matt" Kane growled as he stormed back to the women's bathroom and just walked in fearlessly.

Screams were heard as the Divas came running out. Matt followed as he saw Kane staring at Michelle. She paid no mind to him as she put on her lipstick. "You aren't the first to barge into a woman's bathroom, you're not the last" McCool announced. She tuned to Kane who already asked the question Matt was going to about the Deadman's hat. "Taker's hat? Why would I take it?" she asked of Kane.

Kane at first stared down at the countertop noticing instantly something was off, but said nothing. "My brother has been a rather odd gentleman to you, and accompanied you to many places. You're the only one who could get close enough to the hat…"

"I didn't take it!" she snapped back. "Why the hell would I? I have no ill will towards the Deadman! Besides when Taker left to talk to Vince, I saw Batista go into his locker room…"

"Batista huh?" muttered Matt.

Michelle closed up her make-up bag and took her leave from the bathroom. Kane looked to Matt and nodded. "We go question an animal."

Matt Hardy felt like he was being led on a wild goose chase, nothing was adding up to anything or anywhere. Not to mention he still didn't know why Kane kept the sock that was on Edge's door knob?
