11/2/15, 3:30 am…

In the bar at the hotel and drinking heavily, Seth found himself arguing with Baron.

"Why don't you just give the poor girl a break! It's just characters she and Finn play on Tv and even if they are together, what business is it of-" Baron shouted, cut off by Seth punching the self proclaimed lone wolf in the face… and Baron returning the favor with one of his own.

"You overgrown shitbird!" Seth shouted, tackling Baron to the floor at the same time that an exhausted Amanda was getting off of the elevator and heading towards the bar, a call from the bartender being the reason why.

"For fuck's sake, stop this fucking second!" Amanda screamed, the young diva running over and trying to pull the two apart… only to receive a strong punch in the face that threw her back first into the bar.

"Damn it…" Baron said quietly, him pulling Seth up and both walking towards Amanda, who backed away.

Amanda's instinct was to grab a Heineken bottle and smash it against the bar, aiming the jagged edges at the Architect and the Lone Wolf, both backing away in shock.

"Keep… your damn hands off me! Both of you!" Amanda hissed angrily, the small brunette dropping the bottle and heading back to the elevator.

Pressing the button that closed the doors, Amanda pressed the button that led to the fifth floor and closed her eyes.

She didn't know who had punched her… and at the moment, she was too angry to think straight and didn't care.

'Damn… why couldn't I have just stayed up in the room with Finn and slept?! Oh damn it, he's gonna lose it!' Amanda thought, blood trailing from the split in her lower lip as she got off the elevator and headed towards her room. Shaking, she put the keycard in the slot but the door wouldn't open when she pulled on the handle.

"We're a few rooms down the hall, my little…" Amanda heard, causing her to jump out of her skin and spin around… and Finn's blue eyes widened in shock when he saw her bruised right eye and bleeding lip.

"Mandy, what happened?!" Finn asked, his hands immediately on Amanda's shoulders.

They only played the Demon King and Demon Mistress characters on Tv but he cared about her too much and seeing her hurt, it angered him.

"Drunken fistfight between Seth and Baron… fucking idiots." Amanda answered, Finn helping her to their room and opening it with the keycard before the two walked in and he got her to sit down before he closed the door.

"Damn… whoever punched ya really put a lot of force into it. You're lucky to still be conscious, lass." Finn said, putting some ice in a plastic bag and pressing it to Amanda's bruised face.

"Strong enough to throw me back first into the bar." Amanda muttered quietly, Finn pulling the back of Amanda's hoodie and cami up and seeing the bruises forming.

"Fucking hell…" Finn growled under his breath, remembering that the last time he had seen bruises on her back, they had resulted from Kevin Owens's finisher as he noticed Amanda rubbing her right shoulder. "Hold still." He said, his accented voice returning to its gentleness as he unzipped Amanda's hoodie, pulled it off and examined her right shoulder.

There was no bruising… but he could tell that it hurt her. Setting the ice pack off of her face, he decided to bandage it to her shoulder instead and turned the Tv on.

'The things I do to try to help friends.' Amanda thought… and ironically, it was at the same time that the familiar pink dog she grew up watching on Tv said "The things I do for love.", Amanda chuckling at that and letting a small smile out, finding comfort in Finn helping her and in Courage talking.

"Watching this in my younger years, I sometimes got the feeling that it wasn't meant to be watched by anyone under 13." Amanda replied.

"Especially with the King Ramses and Freaky Fred episodes." Finn responded.

"Oh, King Ramses gave me nightmares as a child." Amanda said, her and Finn laughing.

"Return the slab… or suffer my curse." Finn responded, his impersonation of King Ramses making Amanda laugh again.

"What's yer offer?!" Amanda asked, mimicking Eustace and making Finn laugh.

Unwrapping the bandages from her after the next episode started, which in irony was King Ramses Curse, Finn helped Amanda lie down on the bed and pulled the covers over the pajama clad brunette before stretching out next to her.

Long days and nights travelling on the road weren't so crazy with the two helping each other take their minds off things...

Present time, 11/2/15, O2 Arena…

Finn walked around sometime after 9 at night, looking for Amanda after Enzo had informed him of what he described as "A hellcat fight between Liv and Mandy." had occurred because Liv just would not let her paranoia about Dianne drop… and it didn't take long for him to find her, Amanda's knees up to her body and her back against a production crate as her head rested on her knees.

Given that she had scratches on her arms and bruises on the knuckles of her right hand, Amanda had certainly taken the least amount of damage in the fight… while Amanda was one of the shortest wrestlers in the company, she was also one of the most dangerous when she felt backed into a corner and tended to turn catfights into brawls.

Judging from the bruises, Finn knew that a steel chair had been involved and knew how… so he walked over, crouched down and rested his hands on Amanda's legs, Amanda looking up.

"You punched a steel chair into Liv's face, didn't you?" Finn asked, Amanda nodding.

"She just won't back off of Dianne and Enzo's friendship and it's driving me nuts! All that fighting just..." Amanda responded, Finn lightly rubbing the 25 year old's injured hand before he pulled her into his lap.

"Makes you think back to you and your old friend Andre fighting during those last few days you two were around each other?" Finn asked, Amanda nodding.

"I just wanted him to understand why I was leaving… that town just held too many painful memories after..." Amanda responded quietly as she rested her head on Finn's right shoulder and his arms wrapped around her, tears on the edge of spilling over.

He knew what she had meant… the accident that had claimed Sachael's life when Sachael was 16 and Amanda was 14 and a reckless driver had crashed his car into both girls.

The most horrific part to Finn was that the girls were just walking home from school that afternoon when the driver had injured Amanda and killed Sachael… and that Amanda saw her surrogate sister's life slip away within seconds.
