"The whole story idea was given to me by Fan Fiction reader BearKat."
Chapter 1-
"Here is your winner and the number 1 contender for the world heavyweight championship Ted DiBiase."
Ted DiBiase. The son of WWE hall of famer Million Dollar man Ted DiBiase Sr. A third generation superstar with all the talent to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. Ted DiBiase was the star of the Marine 2. He was enlisted to follow in John Cenas footsteps in the WWE movie business.
He was popular in the locker room. He was well thought of in the writing team and most importantly he was extremely well thought of by WWE chairman Mr Vince McMahon and Chief Operating Officer Paul Levesque (AKA Triple H).
Ted walked back up the ramp. The WWE universe were starting to warm up to Ted. At Summerslam in Los Angeles California he will face captain charisma Christian for the World Heavyweight championship.
He posed one last time before walking back through the curtain.
No sooner as he had walked through a beautiful young women with long brunette hair ran towards Ted and hugged him tightly.
"Im so proud of you baby." Before Ted could say anything his gorgeous girlfriend Eve Torres passionately kissed him.
Ted's best friend Cody Rhodes came over laughing and said "Put him down Eve. He just had a match."
Cody Rhodes had known Ted since the day he came to the WWE. They were partners and tag champions in the team priceless. They were part of the very successful group Legacy and the two of them had rose to stardom at the side of Randy Orton.
Cody Rhodes didn't look at Ted as a friend. He looked at him as a brother. Cody and his actual brother Dustin Rhodes (AKA Goldust) didn't get along so Ted and Cody were very close.
Cody walked up to Ted and gave him a massive hug. "Im proud of you buddy."
"Thanks Cody. I haven't won anything yet though. Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves." Said Ted as he put his arm around the slender waist of Eve.
"I have every faith you will become the champion Ted." Answered Cody
Ted laughed as more superstars and divas came over to congratulate him. Cody stood back and watched as Ted shook hands and hugged everyone around him. All of a sudden he felt someone's hands go over his eyes.
"Now I wonder who that could be." Smiled Cody
"Someone who loves you." Answered a soft voice.
Cody turned around to see his beautiful and stunning girlfriend Layla stood there.
"Now there's a face im always happy to see." Replied Cody as he pulled Layla towards him for a soft kiss.
"Why aren't you over with Ted celebrating?" Asked Layla
"This is his moment im not going to muscle in on it." Replied Cody.
Cody suddenly paid more attention as he heard the voice of his mentor Randy Orton.
"Ted." Shouted Randy
"Randy." Answered Ted not sure what Randy was going to say.
"Congratulations boy. I knew that two members of Legacy would be world champion and let's face it, it was always going to be you." Randy said not knowing that is other prodigy was listening in.
Cody's smile was immediately removed from his face. Layla quickly kissed her boyfriend again and said "He didn't mean that Cody. He was just trying to big up Ted as much as he possibly could."
"Its fine Lay. Your right it didn't mean anything. I need to take a walk."
Cody softly kissed Layla again and walked down the corridor. Layla walked back to Ted and Eve.
Ted asked "Where did Cody go?"
Layla answered "He heard what Randy said."
Ted answered "Oh no. Il go find him."
Eve butted in "No Ted. He is just trying to get attention. Don't let him rain on your parade."
Layla snapped "Excuse me."
Ted quickly calmed the situation before the two legacy girlfriends started arguing.
"I will talk to him later." Said Ted.
…...
Cody slowly walked through the arena corridors. Ted's match was the main event so a lot of people had left or were celebrating with him.
He walked round the corner and saw Vince McMahon and Chief of talent relations John Lartuious stood talking.
Cody listened in to the whole conversation.
"So Mr McMahon. DiBiase will win the world title at Summerslam."
"That's excellent news John. We have John Cena as the face of Raw. I am looking to send Randy back to Raw and Ted will be the face of Smackdown."
"Well I was talking to the writers and they had a new storyline that we think could set the tone in main events for the next few months on Smackdown."
"What is that John?"
"Ted is World champion and his first opponent is none other than his former legacy partner Cody Rhodes. Cody beats DiBiase to become champion. In the mist of the feud Randy gets involved setting up a triple threat match at Survivor series. Wrestlemania 26 Legacy re match but for the World Heavyweight championship."
Cody couldn't believe his ears. He was actually being considered for a world championship run. He moved a little closer so he could hear clearly what they were saying.
"Cody Rhodes? You really think he is world championship material?"
"Yes sir I do and so do a lot of the writers. They have seen the work he has done delivering the dashing segments. Also his run against Rey Mystirio was a very high point for Smackdown this year."
Cody was very happy listening to what John Laryngitis was saying. He had worked very hard with his new character and his feud with Rey was the best of his singles career.
"Im Sorry John I don't think Cody is a good enough World champion."
Cody slowly and silently fell back towards the wall. The last thing any pro wrestler wants to hear is Vince McMahon saying that you're not good enough."
"With all due respect Mr McMahon the writers have thought long and hard about this. They think that it will bring in a lot of viewers."
"No John here's the thing. Randy makes money. Ted will make money. Cody will make nothing."
"Sir I really think this storyline will work. The writers have no other storyline. I have it here for you to read through completely and I think you will be pleased."
"Fine give it to me."
Cody had to put his hand across his mouth to stop himself from shouting. McMahon took the sheets of paper and ripped them into several little pieces.
"Now you can tell your writers that they can write a new one. They only way I want Cody Rhodes near the world title is as a bag carrier for Ted DiBiase do I make myself clear."
"Yes Sir."
Cody watched as McMahon and Laryngitis walked further down the corridor and out of sight.
Two single tears started to fall from Cody's eyes. He slowly slid down the wall and sat on the cold hard damp floor with his head in his hands.
In one split moment Vince McMahon had turned what could have been the greatest moment of his life into the worst, most soul shattering and emotion wrenching moments of his entire life.
All Cody ever wanted to do was wrestle. He wasn't interested in movies, or music all he ever dreamt of was emulating his hall of fame dad and becoming the world heavyweight champion.
He worked hard and gave 100% every time he came to work but it wasn't work it was his life his dream. He was living his dream. He loved his job and he loved Layla he couldn't be happier but now what was his place in the WWE worth because McMahon had made it perfectly clear that he will never be a major champion.
Cody Rhodes continued to sit there with his head in his hands and his eyes closed. Cody went to a whole different world inside his head.
…
Cody was sat in the middle of the ring in an empty arena. Still sat with his head in his hands.
All of a sudden the chairs started to come off as a tornado ripped apart the inside of the arena. The doors were all closed so the devastation went no further. The chairs span around as the arena floor continued to break apart.
Cody looked up as the tornado got faster and faster. As the damage increased it turned the tornado into circular fire circling around Cody getting closer and closer to him with every second.
The sound of burning mixed with the sound of the 500 mph winds echoed around Cody's ears.
Amongst the chaos Cody tried to cover his eyes but the area around the ring turned to volcanic lava bubbling and spitting out hot fire balls.
Cody got to his feet shouting "What's going on? What's going on?"
The volume of everything got louder and louder but all he heard was "You will never be champion. You're not good enough. It's never going to happen. Your not championship material. YOU'RE FIRED."
Cody grabbed his ears like a small child screaming "Stop I want this to stop. Please someone make this stop."
Cody rubbed his eyes from the blinding light. In the distance he saw a shadow rise up from the fire.
The shadow shouted "You must show anger. You must show hatred. Light the fire in your soul and you will fulfil your destiny. You can be champion and you will be champion. You must show no mercy show no regrets."
Cody shouted as the shadow disappeared from the fire "What is this? Get me out of here. Somebody save me."
"Cody"
"Cody"
"Cody"
"Cody"
"Cody"
Cody looked up as he realised his name was not being called inside his heard but from the outside. He looked up and saw a well dressed man stood over him.
"Hello Cody."
