Krys hanging up the phone sat on the edge of the sofa thinking. What could she get a hold of hopefully without him getting suspicious. Then it hit her, his chain. He has it like it is fused to him except during his matches. Now the problem was getting it & how long would Jade need it for whatever she had planned? She hoped not to long, luckily John had a match the next night. She would wait for her opening then. Laying down on the sofa she pulled the sheet over her closing her eyes.

The next day she called Jade to work out the plans. Luckily Jade gave her an idea of where to put the chain so she could get it quickly during John's match, if quick enough maybe even get it back to Krys before the match was even over. Working out the details they both cleared off the phone to deal with what they needed to for that night.

At the arena it was getting closer to bell time & Krys could almost feel the shift in John, unnerving was an understatement. She really wished she didn't have to get this close, but she was his manager & she also had to do it to pull off Jade's plan. Just had to pray it would work. Walking with him to the ring & both sliding it. She reached to take the chain from him, a chill swept her body starting from where his hand touched hers. Once outside most expected her to place the chain in the corner on just hold it, but it looked as though it was accidentally dropped. Her foot Lazily pushing it under the apron.

It was getting close to the finish & faint worry was hitting her as she ha not received the signal she was waiting for. Just as John hit the F-U she felt a faint tap on her foot. Bending down as though to check her shoes she felt the chain. Picking it up she could feel a faint warmth to it that then faded. A paper folded on it. 'not till the locker room' Nodding she placed the paper in her pocket just in time to slide in the ring to celebrate his win. She then slid out & at the base of the ramp before he had a chance to call for the chain.
He motioned for it & she shook her head. He almost glared at her, a look in his eyes she never seen before as he slid out & began to follow after her. Turning she tried to stay a few steps ahead till they reached to room. Krys came in first & John fast on her heels, neither one spotting Jade in the corner at first.

"WHAT WAS THAT?" He snapped at her
"Nothing…"
"Way didn't you give me the chain?"
"Maybe cause I am sick of seeing you hit people with it after you already won."
"That none of your business."
"I'm your manager that makes it my business….HERE." She tosses him the chain as she does Jade crosses her fingers hoping it doesn't react too soon. John catching it slips it around his neck.
"You just better be lucky I don't ever use it on you." He sneered in her direction.
Kry almost with a growl. "I'll like to see you try…then love to watch the DRS. try to remove it from your throat. "
He takes a step as though about to carry his threat when a wave of dizziness hits him. A burning warmth starting from his neck…no from the chain. A deep almost primal snarl forms from his lips as he lowers to a knee. His face a wicked contortion.
"Why you….BITCH…."
"Well close" Came Jade's voice from the corner steeping into the light her shades covering her eyes. "Witch is more like it…in my case anyways."

His body jerked forward as though a bolt of energy stuck him from behind. Almost on instinct even though she didn't know if it was safe Krys moved forward to catch him. He was out cold. The two of them carefully moved to lay him down on the bench.
"What you do to him?"
"Him nothing…that thing in him…shackled him for a time."
"How long is for a time."
"Until someone is dumb enough to remove the chain, I hope. I never did one before, he shouldn't be able do it himself. When does he have time off?"
"Two days."
"Ok you might want to somehow warn his family about it."
"How?"
"Well…um…tell his brothers & cuz it is a bet you 2 have…or something."
"ok..so how long is he out for?"
"Not sure. But since I should still be in Philly I better get going. Try to find out from him the last clear memory he has, it may give us a clue how it got here."
"Ok I will." Jade was getting ready to turn to leave the way she came. "Wait Jade?"
"Yea?"
"His Cuz mentioned an old child hood fort."
"Ok we can check into it when you get off the road with him." They both nodded as Jade vanished into the darkness.
