Please, read and review, it motivates me a lot :3

Now without further wait, please enjoy ;)


"1, 2, 3." Jack was pinned, Curtis Axel on top of him.

"Here are your winners, Rybaxel!" Justin announced. The bearded man just jumped on Ryback's back and was as happy as a dog with a ball. This was ridicoulous, for Zeb, for Toni, and especially for Jack. They have jobbed so much that they were done; they had argued with everyone, but no one seemed to appreciate how the real americans could be the most dominant tag team right now.

Jack was furiously walking back to the locker room before Zeb pulled him to Vince's office. He was about to punch whoever stood in his way. Antonio was no difference, however, he wasn't all red and could perfectly mask the anger he had. The boss lifted his butt off of the chair and began talking.

"You're not doing any good to me together. I'm gonna disband you." Both the real americans' eyes grew wide while Zeb looked too serene for well...being Zeb.

"You can't do this!" Antonio jumped.

"We're an excellent tag team. You see how much reaction we get from fans!" Jack added as he stopped resting against a wall.

"No, you're excellent jobbers," Vince replied.

"But your creative keeps us from winning!" Jack growled back. Toni was analyzing how Zeb hadn't said a word the whole time.

"Jack, I've received demands because of Zeb's flames and your gimmick." The boss pointed to everyone with the last sentence.

"And you're disbanding us because of that?" Antonio replied with an annoyed tone.

"Yes," Vince replied coldly.

"But you could-" Antonio was cut short by Zeb's hand on his shoulder.

"Enough, Toni," Zeb said. "Vince had made a decision we can't reverse, so I'm afraid this was our last show together...Let's go; there's nothing else to do here." Zeb lowered his sight. Jack quickly stormed off, angry.

"Big Hoss, wait..." Antonio said, leaving before the "Don't call me that!" resounded off the walls. Toni sighed, and when he and Zeb started to walk, they were stopped again.

"Zeb," Vince's voice called. "I need to speak with you further. Please stay."

Zeb sighed and smiled at Toni before asking him to go back to the locker room and look for Jack.

Zeb came back and sat in front of Vince, who sat back down and interlaced his hands. He looked at the bearded man and sighed, adopting a serious look.

"You know what this is for, right?"

Zeb shook his head, not because he didn't know, but because he was upset. "You didn't have to punish them. I was the one who did something; I'm the one who deserve it." Vince narrowed his eyes and then rested his head on his fist.

"Your punishment indirectly affects them," Vince blurted. Zeb understood everything-his eyes started to shine, and he was really upset, but he knew that whatever he would do, he would lose.

"I'm sorry Zeb," Vince finally said with a tone that actually sounded like it hurt to say it.

The bearded man stood up, and before leaving through the door frame he said, "Thanks Vince."

When Antonio finally found Jack, the blonde was punching a wall repeatedly with rage tears running down his cheeks.

"Jack...Jack stop..." Toni neared him and grabbed his arms from behind to stop him. Jack fought back, but eventually cried away in Toni's chest repeating "I'm gonna sink" with sorrow and fear.

The next morning, a letter was in the respective floor of Jack and Antonio's rooms.

"Dear Jack & Toni:

I write this last letter as a goodbye to you two. I didn't want you to know it, but...I was released. Vince had a problem with me and he thought it was best to get rid of me. I enjoyed this time with you a lot. Thanks for being such excellent guys to manage, and thanks for all the laughs and good times. I will miss you two a lot more than anyone on the roster.

You both have infinite talent; you two are perfectly capable of winning things by yourselves and make it through the WWE without a stinky old man like me. I really believe you can do it. Believe in yourselves. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't. The true wrestling fans would agree with me.

And remember, Antonio will always be the diplomat, Jack will always be the patriot, and I will always be the founding member.

~Zeb"

Toni fell to the bathroom tiled floor with a hand resting on his head, not believing what he had just read.

Jack screamed like a lunatic and ripped the letter until it was in a lot of little pieces around him. Afterwards, he stayed silent and sat in the chair of the dining room.

Antonio did his best to get back up and take a long cold shower to wash away the sadness he was feeling, and tried to think of how he could be stronger for Jack because he knew that this would be really hard for him. After the shower, he took his phone and sent a message to his friend.

In Jack's room, nothing had moved. The all-american american had his knees hugged against his chest, sitting on the leather chair.

Zeb was something more than his manager to him-he was like a father. He always loved his original parents, but not being able to see them made him look for advice in someone else, and only Zeb had enough wisdom. He became a father figure, and now that he was gone, he wouldn't have anyone to help him, and even if he had a few friends, none of them knew how to make him feel better and understand things like Zeb did. He was wrecked and undone. He was going to be like that for a long time. Suddenly, his phone sounded with a text.

"Meet me in the cafeteria. We need to talk.

-Toni"

Though he never understood why Antonio kept his phone number secret to everyone, he respected it; that, and he already knew it was because he was the only one Toni sent texts to. Jack reunited enough will to take a shower and dress properly. He had a harder time not leaving Antonio waiting in the cafeteria, but after a few minutes, he started to walk to the rendezvous point.
