I own none of the people in the WWE, though Tourniquet is mine. The song for her entrance is also not mine. That is called 4 A.M. Forever by the Lostprophets. This story spawned from a dream I had once.


"I'd like to introduce to you, my newest talent. She's been working with me since about a year ago, and I haven't seen a talent as ranged as hers since.... Since I can remember. We call her... Tourniquet!" A blond, brown eyed man stood in the ring, gesturing toward the entrance to the arena.

The song blasting from the speakers spoke wonders. "Why don't you hear me when I'm calling out to you? Why don't you listen when I try to make it through?" A girl walked out slowly, nervously, to the surprise of the crowd.

Her red-blond hair was held up a bit, in a wavy ponytail. The girl's make up was only some eyeliner and a gray shadow. She wore a black tank top and large black jeans, topped with a chain for a belt. She had men's ring boots on her feet. But what stood out about her was her eyes. Instead of having uncovered brown eyes, she wore glasses. Thin framed, thick lensed, glasses. Few wrestlers ever came out in glasses, let alone a diva. But, Jeff hadn't called her a diva. Under the glasses, her deep brown eyes showed a mix of nerves and gratitude previously unseen from anyone. She was happy just to be walking in.

Upon reaching the ring, Tourniquet smiled at Jeff, a sweet smile, and took the microphone from him. "Thanks Jeff. Hey there everyone! I just gotta say, I'm glad to be here. I can't wait for my first match, and I hope you like me!" She handed the microphone back to her trainer and waved out at the crowd, first with a real wave, and then with the signature Hardy motion.

The crowd went wild. This girl, Tourniquet, would certainly be something.

Placing an ice pack on her knee, Jeff sat next to Tourniquet. "Kae, you're gonna kill that knee if you're not careful."

The girl, Kae as Jeff called her, sighed. "I know. But what can I do? I just got the chance to start a couple of weeks ago. I can't just not do it."

"Brace it when you wrestle. I have to. You know that." He sighed as well. "I don't want you to get hurt before you get your career really under way. You've been training for over a year now. Is it worth it to get hurt?"

The red-blond girl shook her head. "No, I guess not. I just hate bracing my knee. I had to do it almost every few weeks in high school. It sucked majorly."

Jeff nodded. "I know. But it'll get you out of an injury again." He put an arm over her shoulders, hugging her tight. "You did really well tonight, by the way. Being in the ring with Randy isn't easy. You lost gracefully."

Kae laughed. "Graceful loss? Didn't know there was such a thing."

The brown-eyed boy shrugged. "Hey, if you can get Randy to shake your hand after a match, in front of the crowd, and it wasn't scripted, I commend your efforts. That pretty much means he thinks you have a chance."

She looked at Jeff seriously for a moment. "Like your ladder match with the Undertaker?"

He nodded, thinking back. "That was a tough match. I had problems with my knee for a month after that. But Mark wasn't actually supposed to shake my hand. He was supposed to keep attacking. I mean, he'd been in the company for over a decade. No point in respecting a small fry like I was." He smiled. "But he decided I'd done well enough that I shouldn't be attacked anymore. He raised my hand, even though I lost. I never forgot that day. I grew so much, professionally and personally, that day. I gained a new respect for the people that were trying like I was."

Kae smiled at him. "And I learn another thing today." She closed her eyes comfortably, resting her hand on the arm he had draped over her shoulders. "I guess my match, to finally prove myself, would be against you, huh? My mentor?"

He nodded again, looking at her. "Yeah, I suppose so."

She sighed contently. "I can't wait for that day. The day I prove myself, to everyone. To you"


So... what do you think? Kae is pronounced like the letter K, and is her real name, to clear up any confusion that caused. But, back to the story. Let me know what you think.

Will Kae actually face Jeff?

What is up with Kae, anyway? Why did Jeff train her?

Will the people continue to like Kae, or is she a one match wonder?

What about storylines? What do Kae and Jeff have in store for them?
