A/N: This is my first attempt at writing a wrestling story and I can't guarantee that you will enjoy all parts of it. Most of this is going by what I have gotten from the shows, Wikipedia, and my dad. I'm still learning the names of things, but I know most of the stars from Smackdown and some from Raw, so please bear with me in this learning process.

Also, some of the characters might seem out of character but that's because this is my story and I have the creative license to do what I want with them. And I know that what the OC in here does will probably never be allowed in real wrestling, but this is again another creative license.

I hope there are those among you who will continue to read this even if you find that this story is a little weird. That's all I have to say for now...so enjoy this story!

OOOOOOOOOO

The Big Red Monster didn't have a clue why Vince McMahon wanted to have him come to the arena so early in the morning. He stifled a yawn and took a sip of his coffee. It was black and bitter, just like his ringside character. It had just the jolt to wake him up a little.

The silver haired chairman was standing just inside the arena when Glenn entered it. There was a satisfied smile on the older man's face and Glenn wasn't sure he should feel comfortable with that. Something was up.

"Glenn, it's good to see you're up and about so early in the morning when most of the others are catching up on their beauty rest," Vince said with that cocky smile. "Though you look like you could use another few hours."

Glenn ignored the jab at his looks, knowing that he wasn't really a looker. He was content with that. "It's fine."

"Good because you're going to be up for a good long time," Vince stated, getting straight to the point now that he didn't have to exchange anymore 'pleasantries'. "I have someone I want you to meet." The chairman started walking into the arena. "Do you remember how we're giving superstars some rookies to mentor and train?"

"Yes. What of it?" Glenn asked, following him.

"I've found you a rookie to mentor, but I'll warn you that this is no ordinary rookie."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, take a look for yourself."

They had made it close enough to the ring that Glenn could see that there were two people sparring in the ring. One was obviously Drew McIntyre, but the other he didn't know. And what he didn't get was why Drew was fighting a girl.

"That's your rookie," Vince announced. "Fresh out of Japan and eager to get her hands dirty."

Glenn shook his head and moved closer to the ring. The girl was moving around so much and Drew kept getting in the way, but he could tell that the girl had purple hair streaked with black. Obviously thinking that he had Glenn intrigued by this rookie, Vince called out to the two sparring wrestlers and they stopped fighting, their chests rising and falling as they fought to catch their breath.

"Thea, come over here for a minute," Vince commanded, motioning her forward.

The purple haired girl looked at Drew like she wanted to get back to wrestling, but he whispered something to her that made her walk over to the side of the ring closest to the two men. The way she moved reminded Glenn of a cat. "What's up Mr. McMahon?" She glanced at Glenn. "Whatcha doing with the Big Red Monster?"

"Glenn meet Thea Andrews. Your new rookie trainee," Vince said, looking between the two of them.

Glenn stared up at Thea. Surprise was in her ice blue eyes and a black ring glistened on her bottom lip. Her slim body was shown off by her tied gray and black tiger-striped midriff shirt and matching tight tiger-striped pants. Fingerless gloves were on her hands, matching the purple of her hair perfectly. She did not look Japanese and even her name wasn't Japanese.

"Vince, are you sure you want me to train with this guy?" Thea asked, frowning as she looked over Glenn. "I mean, I really don't want to have to act like one of his 'zombies' or anything. I'm not that into the Brothers of Destruction. I thought you'd give me to someone cooler. Or someone scarier."

"Are you kidding?" Drew asked, coming over to the side of the ring to put his own two cents in. "Glenn is scary even when he's not in character. He could break you like a twig, Thea."

Glenn couldn't help but smirk. He knew about his reputation on and off the series and he was proud that it made everyone think twice about coming after him.

Thea on the other hand didn't look impressed as she flipped over the ropes and jumped down to stand in front of him. She was tall, but her head only came up to the top of his chest. She cocked her head to one side, studying him.

"Fine. I'll be his rookie, but there are some things I want to get cleared up with him first," she said after a moment. She looked him dead in the eye with a serious expression on her face. "I will not be a zombie. I will not tolerate being treated as weaker than I really am. I will not get you coffee at any time of the day or night unless I want coffee myself and you ask me nicely. I am not going to be an errand girl as long as you have working legs and can do things on your own. Do not underestimate me and do not make me mad or..." She glanced down and back up with an evil smirk. "You'll be singing soprano."

"Is that all?" Glenn asked, glaring down at her.

A sweet smile replaced the smirk. "Yes."

Vince smiled at the two of them with that cocky smile that irritated Glenn so much. "I can tell that you two are going to hit it off nicely. And Glenn, she's going to debut with you tonight during your match against Dolph Ziggler. She'll be ringside of course. Not fighting and not interfering."

Thea looked put out as she leaned against the side of the ring. "I don't see why you won't let me wrestle any of the guys yet, Vince. I can take them."

"That's a given," Drew mumbled, rolling his shoulder where Glenn could see a rather large bruise developing.

Thea glanced up at him and smiled playfully. "It was your fault that you got hurt. You grabbed my ass."

"By accident."

"If you say so."

"If I'm going to train you, you're going to have to stop acting like a child," Glenn told her bluntly. "I won't tolerate it during training sessions – mine or yours – so grow up and act like a professional."

Thea's ice blue eyes found his again and she frowned, but didn't say anything about it. Vince clapped her on the shoulder and wished her good luck before walking off. Drew asked if Thea would like to come back up and spar with him again.

"I have to ask and see if Kane will let me," Thea said with a sarcastic edge.

"Spar if you want," Glenn said, walking off to sit on a chair. "Let's see your form."

OOOOOOOOOO

Thea didn't pay much attention to Glenn as she circled Drew, looking for an opening while blocking the Scottish man's attacks. She caught him across the throat and sent him crashing to the ground. He rolled out of the way of her stomp which would have hit him on the head. He tried to knock her feet out from under her with a fast sweep of his arm, but she jumped over it with ease.

"Drew, Drew, Drew," she purred, slamming her knee into his back once. Twice. Three times. "I thought you were supposed to be a real tough guy with an undefeated streak...or the happy memories of one..."

"Ah lass, you're aiming for my pride now? What have I done to deserve that?" Drew asked, getting to his feet gingerly.

"Um...how about leaving me in the rain two weeks ago?" Thea ducked under his arm as he came charging at her. "I didn't like that very much."

"I said I was sorry earlier," Drew reminded her, lunging at her again, his fist connecting with her stomach but the blow didn't seem to faze her as much as he had intended it to. "I gave you a bear and a box of chocolate as part of the apology."

"Oh. That's right." Thea pulled him into a submission hold that she knew Glenn had never seen implemented before and hoped he would never be able to counter if he was placed in it. "Welcome to the Viper Pit anyway."

She caught Glenn leaning forward to study the move better out of the corner of her eye. Drew was fighting to find a way out of the submission hold, but as far as Thea knew, no one could get out of it once she had a good hold on them. Once it was locked in, there were only two ways out: tap out or grab the bottom rope. And since they were so far away from the ropes and there was no way Drew could make them get any closer, that left him with only one option.

"All right! All right!" Drew exclaimed, tapping out as hard and as fast as he could when the pressure grew too much to bear. "I give!"

Thea smiled and unwrapped herself from around him, releasing the areas where the most pressure was put on him first so he wouldn't be permanently damaged. "Now you are completely forgiven Drew."

She got to her feet and offered him a hand up. A warning look was earned when Drew grabbed her by the forearm, quickly ending the thoughts of retribution even if they were playful. Somehow, they both ended up smiling and laughing.

"It's good to have you in this brand instead of on Raw," Drew said, holding the ropes up for her to slip through. "We can't have Stephen hogging you to himself."

"As Sheamus, that man scares the crap out of me." She glanced over at Glenn who was standing now. "Unlike Glenn."

"Thea, that man is a scary man in and out of the ring. Me, I pride myself in being a confident man, but between you and me, that man scares the hell out of me," Drew admitted with a cautious glance in Glenn's direction to make sure the man wasn't any closer. "I didn't think anyone could be scarier than you...on that one time a month..."

"Aw..." Thea hugged him around the waist. "I'll protect you from the big scary Big Red Monster, Drew." She made a face. "Ew! You stink. Go take a shower."
Drew sniffed himself. "A shower would be a good idea, I suppose." He sniffed her hair. "You don't need one...yet. So, how about we meet up in about a couple hours and go find some breakfast."

"All right but you're buying."

"Fine."

Thea watched Drew walk up the ramp and disappear backstage. She then turned to find herself looking at Glenn's chest. Thankfully it was covered or she knew that she would be staring at something that could have poked her eye out. She took a step back and looked up at him.

"Can I help you?" she asked.

"Where did you learn that submission hold?" Glenn demanded.

"Um...I invented it back in tenth grade," Thea told him simply. "It's helped me win a boatload of matches and it's going to keep helping me win until someone finds a way to get out of it. And that's probably not going to happen."

"Is it a legal move?"

"Of course it's legal. Vince convinced the right people and made my move legal. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here and instead I would be frying hamburgers at the nearest Burger King and kicking people's asses if they looked at me the wrong way."

"You shouldn't use a move like that too often. People might consider you predictable."

"Hon, if I was so predictable, I wouldn't be lined up to kick some big boys' butts in a few weeks. And I wouldn't be winning against all the other rookies they line me up against. So predictable is not in my job description."

Glenn looked down at her with what Thea knew was obvious doubt mixed with distaste. She wasn't really bothered by that because she had seen that look before.

"Listen," she began. "You may not like this situation that we are in, with you being my mentor and all, but that's the hand that we were dealt by Vince. He makes the rules and we have to live by them. Personally, I'd rather have Paul Levesque as my mentor or someone closer to my age, but I can understand why Vince didn't see it my way. He didn't need a romance to bloom between me and someone. Now, I'm not saying that you're not an attractive man, you're just not my kind of attractive." She took a step back. "I'm just asking for you to help me make my name known in this sport. In a good way. Do you think you can help me with that?"

Glenn stared down at her for a moment. Thea didn't try to give him her best pleading eyes or smile encouragingly. She knew there was no way that he was going to be moved by those kinds of things. Not if he was as bad as Drew made him out to be.

"I don't have much of a choice," Glenn said finally. "But you better not disappoint me. Understand?"
Thea nodded once before Glenn turned his back on her. "I wouldn't dream of it, coach."

OOOOOOOOOO

Thea watched the TV backstage, smirking as Dolph Ziggler paraded about in that pleather outfit of his. She never understood that man or his choices especially to go after Kane. She had to wonder if the man had any braincells in that overly large head of his or ones that actually functioned.

She glanced to her left when she heard someone move. Kane was standing there, decked out in his famous black wrestling tights with the red designs on them. His eyes were narrowed as he watched the screen displaying what was happening out in the ring.

"Hey," she said, getting his attention. "You'll kick his ass."

Kane glanced at her and then turned as his intro music blared. "Come."

Thea followed him as he exited through the gorilla entrance. She glanced around at all the screaming people and saw some of them look confused at her presence. She could even hear the commentators having trouble understanding what she was doing there. Why was a girl hanging out with the Big Red Monster was what they wanted to know. She'd let them draw their own conclusions before her big reveal in a few weeks. As long as they didn't think she was his mysterious new girlfriend she was fine with what they could come up with to explain her presence there.

She admired the way her skin looked when the flames shot up in the air from the posts of the ring upon Kane's cue. Obviously Dolph did too because once he was back in the ring he looked at her and offered her a cheesy grin.

"Hi there, precious," he said loud enough only for her, the ref, and Kane to hear. "Come to cheer for me?"

Thea shook her head and looked at Kane as the ref started the match. And so her lessons began...

OOOOOOOOOO

A/N: See? I told you that something was going to be absolutely weird about the OC in this story. She wrestles boys and if you can't handle that, then I suggest you only stick around for the other parts to this story that will come to light in a few chapters or so.

Please review to let me know how I'm doing so far. (And yes, I know this chapter is short, but this is only the introduction of the OC.) So, I'll see you again when it comes time to update!
