Chapter 23

Jordan stood in the corner of the ring and winced as she watched Jeff's attack be fended off by the Big Red Machine. Kane seemed to be unfazed by the blows Jeff was attempting to deliver which worried Jordan to no end. Jordan winced as she watched Jeff's body hit the mat hard and flop as if it were nothing but dead weight. She bit her bottom lip nervously, knowing that soon he was going to have to tag her in so he could get a chance to catch his breath. She watched as Jeff stubbornly got to his feet and went after Kane again and winced once more as he went flying again. There had to be something they could do to bring down their opponents.

Jeff was really feeling the pain as his body slammed once more into the mat. He knew that if he was 100 he might have had a shot at defeating Kane but since both he and Jordan were still recovering they were most likely not going to have a chance at a win here. That is unless they found a way to win by DQ. Jeff glanced behind him in time to see Jordan push a chair into the ring almost as if she had read his mind. Jeff had to find a way to get Kane to use the chair.

"You know you really are a freak of nature." Jeff said sarcastically as he kicked the chair into the ring at Kane's feet. Pretending he didn't realize what he had done Jeff turned as if he was going to make a tag and Kane slammed the chair into his skull. Jeff was out cold.

Shawn was sitting with his sister in the trainer's room watching as they attempted to bring Jeff Hardy back around. It was really getting on his nerves that everything that seemed to be happening lately was because of him. He looked at his little sister's pale and drawn face and knew that it was time to take matters into his own hands. He was going to have to make sure that Vince McMahon realized he was messing with the wrong family and he was going to make him pay for it.

"You know that if you keep looking at me like that I am going to start thinking you are really on Vince's side after all." Jordan said with a sigh.

"Haha, that's extremely funny." Shawn said sarcastically.

"Well it's the truth." Jordan said shrugging her shoulders.

"Look I am just trying to think of a way to get even with McMahon, Chyna and Kane. Those three don't know who they are messing with and I think it's time they found out." Shawn said with a smirk on his face.

"Really?" Jordan asked arching an eyebrow.

"Yeah. Look I gotta make a couple of phone calls and get some old friends back together. I think it's time we do a full DX reunion and I also think it's time we add some new friends." Shawn said getting to his feet. He left the trainer's room feeling his little sister's eyes on his back the whole time.

Vince was grinning as he sat in his office with Chyna and Kane, his two new alliance members. He knew that there were a lot of wrestlers who were starting to feel the heat of the new alliance and were getting nervous about the possibility that they would be next on the list. Vince was thinking of reassuring them that it had nothing to do with them but that it had everything to do with Team Extreme. The Hardy brothers and the newest member of Team Extreme Jordan Michaels were the only targets he had in mind at the moment.

"Look Jordan didn't enter the ring which means she has no new wounds." Vince said with a pointed glance at his two new team members. "I want Jordan lying beside Jeff Hardy as soon as possible. Matt Hardy is going to be out of the picture for a while, Lita is no longer a member of Team Extreme since she is now with Edge. What I need is an assurance from you two that this team is going to be torn apart." Vince said with his evil smirk.

"You know they will be." Kane said with his evil grin.

Vince nodded his head and started laughing. He could already tell he was going to enjoy the next few weeks of torture that the two standing members of Team Extreme were going to suffer.

Jordan jumped to her feet when she noticed Jeff was awake and trying to sit up. She placed her hands on his shoulders and forced him back onto the trainers table with a sigh.

"You need your rest." Jordan said simply.

"What happened?" Jeff asked with a small groan.

"You got nailed in the head by Kane with a steel chair." Jordan responded wincing for him.

"Well I guess that means we won the match." Jeff said with a sigh. "You have any problems after I went out?"

"Nah, you should be more worried about yourself right now." Jordan said with a sigh. "I think Shawn plans on getting revenge for you so you can rest easily."

"Your brother wants to get revenge on my behalf? Okay why is that?" Jeff asked confused.

"Because you were the only one that I let anywhere near me enough to keep me safe so Shawn figures they went through you to get to me to get even with him, if that makes any sense to you at all." Jordan said with a frown.

"Yeah I think it does." Jeff said thinking about it.

Jordan and Jeff had no idea how big a target they had become or how much Vince seemed to hate them. Little did they know that Vince had big plans for their career's to end but the way he planned to do it could cause more problems outside the ring as well as inside.

Vince, Kane and Chyna all laughed as they finalized their upcoming plan of attack. No one could believe what was going to happen next.
