Three weeks have passed since Hell In A Cell and Monday Night RAW has taken hold of Nashville that night. Many feuds have continued to build and develope towards something big, but there was one question: What about Y/N and Braun? After Braun's assault at the Pay-Per-View and the backstage attack by Murphy, Y/N had been off TV ever since. He gave a few updates on his social media to tell the world how he was doing. He really loved spending time with Alexa for so long as they webt out on dates, had virtual Meet&Greets with fans and helped their friends in any way they could in their current condition. Yes, the pregnancy was in the early stages, but the two didn't want to risk anything. Alexa still travelled with Y/N though, as seen tonight.

Alexa:" You're really excited to get back into it, huh?"

Y/N:" Definitly. The break to just stay home and be with the love of my life was amazing, but duty calls for me too."

Alexa:" I don't blame you. You've been going all crazy with the workouts and everything. You even got new gear made, right?"

Y/N:" Yup, I did. I'm all kitted out for the coming future."

Alexa:" You're adorable. But don't underestimate Braun. You may be friends, but that doesn't mean that he will hold back against you."

Y/N:" Neither will I. The guy is awesome, but he doesn't know my skills too well."

Alexa:" I wonder what you will do tonight though."

Y/N:" Just wait and see, love. I will remind everyone why I am me."

Alexa:" Fierce, just how I like it~."

Sharing a kiss, the two smiled and went their separate ways, because Y/N still had to change. He was ready to face the storm that was waiting for him. Yes, Braun was dangerous and for sure a force to be reckoned with, but Y/N wasn't going to let this stop him any time soon. Fans speculated what happened to him and why he wasn't around for a while, but he had to sell the beating somehow. Now with a fresh start, only time would tell what might unfold in this feud.
---------------------------------------------------------

About an hour into the show and it was time for Braun to come out and give everyone a piece of his mind. There was something that he needed to get out and he was done waiting as he marched down to the ring, got in and got himself a mic.

Braun:" I'm not going to beat around the bush. What I did at Hell In A Cell was to show that fool Y/N L/N that he's far from the top. He's a bug that I will crush with my boot! Where has he been the last three weeks? Living in pain and fear of getting these hands again!...I've been overlooked for too long while suddenly these new shiny toys get all the glory! Well, I won't let that stand anymore! I will claim my spot as the top contender, but Y/N, remember...I'm not finished with you!"

Those were strong words from the Monster Among Men. Braun was someone who didn't get his deserved time in the spotlight for very long and he wanted to change that. He was close to leaving when suddenly the titantron showed Y/N laughing.

Y/N:" Hey! You see me?...Do you believe in ghosts? Braun, I didn't stay out, because I was hurt. I used this time to re-focus and gather myself. And what? Should I be afraid of you? Haha of course NOT!"

The crowd watched everything in anticipation as Braun kept his eyes on his rival, who seemed to have gone through a change. Y/N didn't act like the entertaining face he was before, this was the more twisted side of him as he stared right at the camera.

Y/N:" I'm not afraid of you...In fact, I'm not even impressed by you! You beat up people that aren't your size. For what?...Let's face it: you were dodging me! Everyone else thinks you're so big and scary, but I see you...as prey. And I'll gladly go monster hunting!"

By the looks of things, Braun was getting very annoyed by what Y/N was getting at, but all of it served a purpose. This wasn't a do-over of a previous feud or a cheap copy of a movie. This was all real and original.

Braun:" You want hunting? Oh, then I will gladly join the hunt and find you!"

This caused Y/N to just laugh again for a few seconds. In reality, he knew what Braun was capable of and how much their friendship meant, but this was something different now. Everyone expected a great fallout, but not even their co-workers knew what they were in for as Y/N pushed the camera man into an unseen chair.

Y/N:" If you're so adament to find me, then try and find me, Braun! You say you're a monster? Then show me what you got! Show all of us!"

That was the final nail in the coffin for Braun as he got out of the ring again and headed backstage while Y/N was still laughing. So much for him being done with playing games. This was going to turn into an eventful show.
---------------------------------------------------------

The first part of the chase came in the form of Braun stomping his way around backstage after Ricochet had a match against R-Truth. He was still furious with Y/N and it didn't get better when was met with Matt Riddle.

Matt:" Eyy Braun, what's got you so mad?"

Braun:" In case you didn't watch earlier, I'm looking for Y/N."

Matt:" The dude with the hat? I think I saw him just down the hall and to the right, bro."

Braun:" Are you serious?"

Matt:" As serious as can be, man. Judt trust me."

Suddenly Braun grabbed Matt by his throat and choked him a bit to get his point across right there.

Braun:" If this is a lie, I will hurt you even more than what I'll do now!"

The key to that was a Chokeslam on top of a spare commentary table as everyone around looked at the scene, both in confusion and shock. Braun hated lies and being lead down the wrong path.

Taking a deep breath, Braun decided to follow Matt's directions and try to actually find Y/N. This was already like a wild goose chase and Braun got angrier with every second.
---------------------------------------------------------

Part Two had Braun in a less crowded part of the arena after a promo by Seth Rollins and a match between Billie Kay and Lana. He still looked extremely ticked off, but a clue to salvation got his attention when he found himself in front of an old, chained up door.

Braun:" What kind of arena still has a door like that?"

It felt odd to have this thing there to be honest. Everything else was modern and looked the part, but this door was totally out of place. Why was it chained up anyways? Braun looked at the door for a few seconds. He figured bolt cutters might do the trick, but he didn't have the time to search for any. Instead, he took a step back and kicked the door down.

Braun:" Y/N! Wherever you are, you will get these hands! Show yourself!"

Braun walked over the busted door and looked around. He was sure this would be where Y/N was, but there was no sign of the younger man. Throwing around any object that was present relieved some anger, but it didn't end the hunt at all. This was more about psychological warfare than anything else. Sure, Braun has dealt with different things before and handled them in a variety of ways, but he had no idea how to go on about this. Fans and viewers were just as clueless as zu what was going on when suddenly there was static and the TV in the room turned on, showing Y/N again.

Y/N:" You didn't think I would make things easy for you, did you? Come on, you're smarter than this most of the time! It can't be that hard to find me!"

Braun:" You're a rat, Y/N. You had me run around the arena and you're not even here!"

Y/N:" Are you sure I'm not? Maybe you're just at the wrong place at the wrong time! Listen, you and I are civilized people...I think. Next week, no more games, no more hiding. We will be in that ring, whether you like it or not."

Braun:" Hahaha you think you're funny now? I will make you regret picking a fight with me!"

Y/N:" I have enough regrets, but my biggest regret is...not putting you down sooner!"

Without warning, Y/N appeared from behind and attacked Braun. There certainly was no love lost between them and this surely fueled the fire even more. In terms of power, Y/N wasn't really on par with Braun, but his quick thinking evened that out. Few things had both men so rampant as Braun pushed Y/N away and did his best to get up, but Y/N came prepared. He grabbed a steel chair and waited until Braun was up before hitting him in the back with full force.

Things really took a turn since the start of the whole event, but both men were resilient in every way. Braun could take a lot of damage while Y/N had a 'Never Say Die' attitude. Two very dangerous traits as a whole and it got even harder than that. This fire in them was taking in everything, burning with an unmatched hatred. For wrestling fans, this was usual business, but for outsiders it was a different story alltogether. Everyone knew Braun and Y/N as those two joking, challenging friends whenever they were at the gym or something similar. But now, everything was just violence and it shook the people awake. There was one more step though and Y/N didn't hesitate to put it into action as he climbed up a wooden ladder with the chair in hand. He looked down at Braun who layed on his back, cringing from the pain he just received.

Y/N:" And now for the grand finale!"

Y/N jumped off the highest point and landed with the chair crashing into Braun's upper chest and face, putting an end to his resistance for the night. This entire exchange was a lot to handle as Y/N shifted away from his rival, sitting against a nearby locker.

Y/N:" There's just one thing, man. One thing! You're in my world now! Don't you dare...forget that!"
---------------------------------------------------------

With the chase down and both men having been checked over by the doctors, it was time to relax. The show itself went great this far, thanks to everyone who was booked that night and how the matches and promos were handled.

(Something the real life product lacks)

This definitly served to make things even more interesting down the line. Y/N was currently chuckling as he rested his hands on Alexa's waist and kissed her forehead.

Y/N:" So you think I look scruffy in this?"

Alexa:" A little. I'm not used to you having longer hair, but I dig the facial hair."

Y/N:" What about the coat and the hat?"

Alexa:" They're good and fitting for the new direction. You're not going right with them on though, right?"

Y/N:" Right. No coat, hat or sun glasses during matches. Tonight's brawl was an exception."

Alexa:" I believe that, Mr Scruffs."

Y/N:" Is that my new nickname?"

Alexa:" Yes and you're not getting rid of that any time soon hehehe."

The two shared a laugh and sat down to watch the rest of the show. Two matches and another promo were left, so they had a good bit of entertainment to get through, apart from Alexa poking some fun at Y/N's new gear.
