So here's my first attempt at a fanfic. This is inspired by "It's Enough" by "ijnfleetadmiral" as well as the 11/13/06 episode of RAW, where DX helped Mickie win her match against Lita.

This story is somewhat AU – the events on-stage/on-air are considered real instead of scripted, I'll also take some liberties with the characters.

We start with a List of the big points that lead to the story as wells as a prologue:


-Vince McMahon tries to get Shawn Michaels to retire.
-Shawn gets introduced in the Vince McMahon-'kiss my ass club'.
-Wrestlemania 22:
-Shawn defeats Vince in a No Holds Barred match.
-Triple H loses to John Cena.
-Both Michaels and HHH perform crotch chops during their matches - first signs of DX returning.
-Backlash: Michaels (with 'God') loses to Vince and Shane McMahon in a 'tag team' match.
-The Spirit Squad injures Shawn's knee.
-During Triple H's gauntlet match against the Spirit Squad, Shawn steps in to save Triple H.
-DX returns and feuds against the McMahons and the Spirit Squad.
-DX defeats the Spirit Squad on Vengeance and Saturday Night Main Event.
-DX defeats the McMahons and Big Show on Hell in a Cell.
-DX loses to Rated RKO after being screwed by Eric Bischoff on Cyber Sunday.
-DX help Mickie James, whose legs were shackled together, win against Lita.
-Survivor Series:
-Mickie James defeats Lita and wins the WWE Women's Championship.
-Team DX (DX, The Hardys, CM Punk) defeat Team Rated-RKO (Rated-RKO, Johnny Nitro, Mike Knox, Gregory Helms)
-Story begins.


Prologue:

27th November, 2006 – just after RAW:

Shawn sighed deeply, thinking about the day's events – first he and Hunter got, along with their role model - Ric Flair, another go at the Spirits Squad and kicked their asses again, followed by the Hardys being denied their well deserved titles because Rated-RKO decided to play dirty just to get disqualified.

He was also concerned for Mickie, Hunter and him got to know her a little after they helped her win two weeks ago, who now had to face Victoria to defend her title. Shawn didn't know what it was but something told him Victoria was defiantly up to no good.

'Maybe DX should be in the audience again when the match starts', crossed his thoughts but that had time until January.

Shawn's thoughts were interrupted by someone knocking at the door of his hotel room,
"Shawn! Open up. It's me Hunter. Something has happened."

-DX-

"Wait, let me repeat that: Orton and Edge attacked the Hardys after the show and now they are in hospital. That's why Vince decided that we take their place at December to Dismember against MNM and to make it harder for us it's now a mixed gender tag team match and now we have to find a female team member so we don't embarrass ourselves with not being able to compete. Did I get this right?"

"Yeah, that's about it, Shawn", Hunter said, scratching the back of his head.

"Well, at least we don't have to fight the cheerleaders… Got any idea who could team up with us?"

"That's where you come into this whole mess. You know I just became a father and all so I thought you could do it", came Shawn's best friends answer.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot about it. But be careful your child may still have got a few genes from Satan himself. I still can't believe that you are the one that knocked Princess Stephanie up", laughter filled the room.

"Thanks man, I owe you. And listen – I know this whole marriage thing hasn't worked out for you but try to move on, ok pal? Just because it failed once doesn't mean you won't find someone."

"Really, Hunter? We're back at this again? I told you I'm fine", Shawn got up from his seat with his best friend in tow and opened the door.

"Now get to your little bastard and greet good ol' Vince when you meet him. I have to solve our little problem", and with that Shawn's mind returned to his previous thoughts until an idea hit him.

-DX-

Meanwhile the WWE Women's Champion, Mickie James, sat slightly depressed and confused on the couch of her hotel room. Ever since she got to know DX she couldn't help but think about them or most of the time - Shawn. There even was that photo where she hugged him from the side while he has his arm around her.

This had been the first time she really had anything to do with them. Sure, she saw some of their matches and skits backstage and she was there at Wrestlemania XIX and watched Shawn's epic match against Jericho, but at that time she was not that interested in him – she was still obsessed with Trish at that time.

Now she had to admit, she thought he was cute and he was sexy. He also got the looks that – just then she realized that she began humming his theme music and stopped her thoughts.

OK, so she was attracted to Shawn. But did she really want to go through the embarrassment following a possible rejection? Last time with Trish really hurt her and she didn't know if she could take this again. If she could at least spend some more time with him before she tries to open herself to anyone again.

While she began picturing herself with the Heartbreak Kid once more, someone knocked at her door.

"Wait a sec. I'm coming!" She called over and got up from the couch. When she opened the door she met with the one person she didn't expect – Shawn Michaels.

"Hey, Mickie", he said awkwardly, "I got a little proposal for you: How would you like to team up with DX?"

She didn't know how, but someone seemed to have answered to her whishes.

TBC….


So this is the prologue. I hope you liked it. Please tell me what you think about it and if I should continue.

Until then,
