Chapter 1: Alex
Summer vacation had just arrived on California and Liv Rooney had already taken advantage of it along with her Family. They had already visited the beach, went to the movies a couple of times, and even went on vacation to Stevens Point to see her dad for a week. But today she enjoyed a relaxing day at home. It was 7:00 pm and she was sitting on the living room couch in comfortable clothes, eating popcorn and watching old "Sing It Loud" episodes. Suddenly, she heard steps coming down the stairs. It was her sister Maddie, and her brothers Joey and Parker. They were all dressed to go out for the night.
"Hey guys" said Liv.
"Oh, hey Liv" Maddie responded, "What are you doing?"
"Oh nothing, just watching some old episodes of Sing It Loooooouuuuuud" Said Liv as she sang that last part.
"Do you really have to do that every time?" asked Parker a little bit annoyed.
"Yes, yes I do" Liv responded. "Anyway, where are you guys going?" she asked.
"We're going to an wrestling show," Joey said.
"Yeah, we've been looking forward to this all week, It's gonna be Awesome!" said a very exited Parker.
"YEAH, NOTHING BUT PILEDRIVERS, BODYSLAMS, AND HEADLOCK!" said a hyped up Maddie as she put Joey in a headlock.
"OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, MADDIE YOURE HURTING ME" screamed Joey in pain before Maddie let him go.
"Oh, well have fun!" said Liv
"Why don't you come with us?" asked Parker
"Oh, thanks but wrestling isn't really my thing….or any sport for that matter" Liv answered.
"Come on Liv, it'll be fun" said Joey
"Sure Liv, why not? You might enjoy it" Maddie
"Oh, I don't know" Liv said
Liv stopped for a moment to think. She wasn't interested in going at first but then she thought that it could be very interesting experience and maybe could be fun.
"You know what? Why not" she said.
Maddie, Parker and Joey were happy when Liv said she would join them. Liv got up, went to her room to get changed and came back down so that they could leave for the wrestling show.
15 minutes later
The Rooney siblings arrived at the armory where wrestling show was taking place. The name of the promotion was "Extreme Wrestling Association(EWA)". Among all of the screaming fans, Liv stood out like a sore thumb; she was wearing a pretty dress in a building full of people wearing trucker hats, old hoodies and shirts, ripped jeans, and worn out sneakers. Two matches had already taken place and the next match was about to start, one of the wrestlers was already in the ring, he was wearing black boots, black wrestling singlets, and a black mask. Liv was shaking in her seat while her siblings were enjoying the show.
"Liv are you ok?" Maddie asked her sister.
"Yes I'm fine," she said with a little bit of nervous tone in her voice. "Its just that I've never seen someone get hit in the head with a light tube multiple times" she said as she laughed nervously.
"Don't worry about it, remember its all just a show" Maddie said.
"I know, it's just…" The ring announcer cut off Liv.
"And coming to the ring now, He is the "EWA" Jr. Heavyweight champion! Alex Jaeger!" the ring announcer screamed.
Alex (played by Leo Howard) came out of the entrance curtain with a lot of energy and the crowd went wild. This got Liv's attention, so much so that she stood up the moment Alex came out of the curtain He was wearing Black, Gray and Green wrestling trunks, black and white kick pads, white wrist tape, and had belt around his waist that read "EWA Jr. Heavyweight Champion"(for reference search "florida heritage title"). Once Liv saw him the expression on her face changed, she wasn't afraid, he intrigued her, he wasn't like the other wrestlers, he wasn't scary, as a matter of fact, she thought he was kinda handsome. As Alex got into the ring and climbed the ring corner, everyone started cheering, including Liv, which surprised Maddie, Parker, and Joey.
"Liv, are you ok?" asked Maddie with a surprised look on her face.
Liv realized how she was acting and quickly snapped out of it.
"Oh…. Yes yes, I'm fine…. jajaja" she laughed nervously as her siblings looked at her strangely.
After that strange little moment, all of them turned their attention back to the match. The bell rang and the match got underway. Alex and his opponent locked up and got the upper hand right away. He delivered three arm drags to his opponent and locked his arm tight. The fans started to cheer, especially Liv, which once again caught the attention of her siblings. However, this didn't last long as Alex's opponent got started to get up and raked him in the eyes and started to beat him down. The crowd started booing, including Liv, who even went as far as to talk smack to the referee.
"AW COME ON REF! THAT'S NOT ALLOWED!" Liv screamed, which caused her siblings to react with confusion once again.
Alex was being dominated for the majority of the match but he eventually regained control and was ready to end it. He picked up his opponent and got him into a fireman's carry position.
"Here it comes!" Parker said with excitement.
"The Prince's Throne! (Look it up on youtube)" Joey also said with excitement.
Alex lifted his opponent on his shoulders and dropped him on his stomach on top of his knees. Once this was done, he preceded to cover his opponent.
"1!...2!...3!" the referee counted and the fans began to cheer
"Here is your winner, and still EWA Jr. Heavyweight Champion, Alex Jaeger!" the announcer said as the crowd went wild. Liv was probably one of the loudest that were cheering. Maddie, Parker, and Joey didn't care about how she was acting anymore, they could see that she was having fun and they were happy about it.
After the show ended, they were all in line for Alex's autograph table. As the line was moving Liv, Parker, and Joey began to ask Liv some questions about her behavior.
"Hey Liv, what was that all about?" asked Joey.
"What was what all about?" asked Liv all confused.
"You know, all of the sudden you turned into a crazy wrestling fan" Parker said
"Oh that…..I…..really don't know" Liv answered.
"How can you not know" Maddie asked.
"I….can't explain it" Liv replied.
"Well that's odd" Maddie said.
They finally made it to the autograph table; on the table were t-shirts that Alex was selling. He was sitting on the other side of the table and was wearing one of his shirts.
"Hey guys" Alex greeted them nicely, "Did you enjoy the show?" he asked. Parker and Maddie were about to speak but Joey cut them off.
"Oh yes I did! You were AWESOME! Can I get your autograph? And a photo? And a T-shirt?" Joey asked in a very hyperactive manner. This creeped out Alex a little but decided to accept his request
"No problem" Alex said as he gave Joey and autograph, picture and t-shirt.
"Thank you!" Joey said with a big smile o his face.
"What about you guys?" Alex asked Maddie and Parker
"We just want a picture" Maddie answered
"Ok" Alex said as he took a selfie with Maddie and Parker.
Alex handed Maddie her cellphone back just as it was Liv's turn at the table
"Hello" Liv said
"Hey, what can I…" Alex stopped once he realized whom he was talking to."Whoa, you're Liv Rooney!" Alex exclaimed
"Oh!, you're a fan?" Liv asked a little surprised.
"Yeah, Voltage is my favorite show!" Alex answered
"Really? Well I'll be darned!" Liv said.
"Looks like you have fans in the strangest places" Maddie said.
"Yes Alex, I am the younger brother of Skyvolt" Joey said trying to act cool, "are you impressed?" he asked as he put his arm around Alex.
"Yeah I'm impressed, but take your arm off of me before I put you in a sleeper hold" Alex threatened Joey and he took his arm off Alex in the blink of an eye.
"Sorry" Joey apologized.
"Don't mind him, he's uncool like that" Parker said.
"Yeah I see that" Alex said as he looked at Joey then back at Parker.
"HEY!" Joey exclaimed.
"Sorry man, I call them like I see them" Alex said. Joey dropped his head in defeat as Maddie and Parker laughed. Alex then turned his attention back to Liv.
"Anyway, I know this is my table and all, but can I take a picture?" Alex asked Liv.
"Oh, of course!" Liv gladly accepted. Alex took out his phone and took a selfie with Liv. Alex continues to talk to Liv.
"So how did you like the show?" Alex asked.
"It was very exhilarating. Actually, this is my first time a wrestling show" Liv answered.
"Really? This was your first show?" Alex asked again. Liv answers by nodding "yes".
"Well I'm glad that you enjoyed it" Alex said.
"Thank you, and I'm glad that you liked Voltage" Liv replied.
"We should probably get going" said Maddie as she looked at the time.
"Oh, ok, it was nice meeting you" Liv said to Alex.
"Thanks, it was nice meeting you guys too, get home safe" Alex said as the Rooney's left.
5 days later
It was a beautiful summer day and Liv was spending with her mom, her aunt Dena, and her cousin Ruby walking around Los Angeles. When lunchtime came around they decided to stop and eat at a street side restaurant called "L.A. Boulevard". They sat down at an outdoor table. As they were talking, they asked Liv about the wrestling show and she started telling them about it and also told them about Alex.
"Jajaja yeah, I had a really fun time at the show" she said.
"You did?" aunt Dena asked.
"Mhm, it was a bit scary at first but once I saw Alex's match, I got over it" Liv said.
"Seems this Alex guy is quite the character" aunt Dena replied.
"Yeah, he doesn't sound at all what I thought a wrestler would be" Karen added.
"Yeah, he's a bit different".
As they keep talking, the waiter finally arrives.
"Welcome to L.A. Boulevard, can I start you of with some drinks?" he asked.
"Yeah, can get a…." Liv turns around and is surprised when she sees that the waiter is Alex. "Alex?!" she exclaimed.
"Liv?! Well this is a total surprise!" Alex replied.
"Its so nice to see you again! Guys this is Alex, the one I was telling you about" Liv said. "This is my mom, my aunt Dena, and my cousin Ruby," she added
"It's nice to meet you Alex" Liv's mom said.
"He's really cute" Ruby whispered on Liv's ear which makes he smile, luckily Alex dint hear it.
"So you work here?" Liv asked Alex.
"Yeah, my dad actually owns this place, I guess you can say this is my secret identity" Alex responded.
"I think it's nice that you are pitching in for them like this" aunt Dena said.
"Yeah, and I get some money out of it, lets just say that wrestling on small shows doesn't pay that much" Alex said.
"I see, so what's your goal?" Karen asked.
"I want to get signed by the biggest promotion in the world, World Wrestling Kingdom(WWK)" Alex answered.
"Well I do hope that your dream comes true some day" Karen said.
"Thank you so much" Alex said, "Anyway, can I get you started with some drinks? He asked.
"Yes, we'll have two iced tea's and two orange sodas please" aunt Dena said.
"Ok, I'll be right back with them so you can place your order, thanks guys" Alex said as he left and everyone thanked him.
"Well he seems like a really nice boy" Karen said.
"Told ya" Liv said.
