A/N: Natia is Hero Is My King's character.

WWE Extreme Rules pay per view, Amanda's perspective…

Aw… damn it… damn Bray!

I don't know how I'm still standing but I feel my newly won Cruiserweight Championship fall out of my hand and turn around, a half broken kendo stick in Bray's hands and Finn immediately at my side, holding me up.

"What… the fuck?!" I ask, quickly escalating to shouting.

"Mandy… damn it, I'm so sorry!" Bray says in complete panic, Finn pulling me out of the way… and with good reason.

Seth's rage has taken control of him and he's started beating Bray up, my eyes closing and me burying my face into Finn's right shoulder as soon as I see blood pouring from Bray's head.

No… not again! It's not Bray I see on the ground, it's Alex!

"Seth, you're frightening her! Stop!" Finn shouts, the shouting muffled by him covering my ears as I try to stop myself from crying.

The next muffled shouting I hear is between Roman, Seth and Joe… I don't need to open my eyes to know that they pulled him off of Bray.

"Mandy?" Finn whispers, his arms around me and his right hand resting on my back.

"Is he… dead?" I manage to ask, my eyes still closed as tears streamed down my face like rain.

"He's unconscious… but he's still breathing. He'll be okay, love." Finn says quietly… but I can tell he's shaken up by this too.

Who wouldn't be?! Seth was on a damn murderous rage!

And it's far from the first time he's beaten someone into oblivion.

Natia's Perspective, Backstage…

"Is it over?" I ask quietly, my eyes snapped shut and me clinging onto Kurt's arm.

"It's over, kiddo…" Kurt says, my eyes opening as Joe and Finn help a traumatized Mandy through the curtain and we run to them.

Mandy lets out a shrill scream when she hears us though and backs away, her eyes still closed as Finn pulls her into his arms… Goddamn you Seth, do you see the terror you caused her?!

Her eyes eventually open, I can tell by her looking up at Finn as they hold onto each other… there's a red welt forming on the back of her right shoulder and neck.

I walk over, resting my hand on her right arm and she looks at me… an absolutely haunted look in her eyes.

"He's gonna be okay, Mandy." I say, Mandy letting a small nod out… she's reliving it again, Roman had told me what happened to Alex Riley when Alex had walked into the wrong room and passed out next to Mandy when she was asleep.

Joe walks over to us with an ice pack and some tape, us helping Mandy sit down and taping the ice to her back… but she's still so quiet.

I head off towards Seth's locker room, kicking the door open and making him jump back.

"Natia, it wasn't intentional-" Seth starts to say, me slamming my fist into his face after slamming and locking the door.

"She's never gonna forget what happened out there! Bray used too much force but unintentionally! You deliberately beat him into unconsciousness and traumatized Mandy!" I yell in between blows to his body until he's down on the ground.

Finn's Perspective…

I've rarely seen Mandy go this quiet over the time that we've known each other… damn it, no wonder she didn't want to tell Seth what was going on, it was that damn attack on Alex that left her basically scarred, no matter how much she tries to hide it.

We hear the stretcher nearby and Mandy stands up and runs to it, Bray stopping her as I catch up to them.

"How's… your back, kiddo?" Bray asks her, his on screen character long gone now. Mandy turns around, Bray seeing the ice pack taped to her before she turns back to him… and it hits him just how quiet she is. "It's happened again… Finn, stay by her side. She'll talk again." He says before lightly kissing Mandy's left hand and letting the paramedics wheel him away.

I remember it now… back when she and I were just friends, Mandy once said that she didn't talk for three weeks back in 2007, just after the double murder-suicide.

I pull Mandy into my arms again, her hanging onto me and the only sound from her mouth is her breathing…

Damn you Seth!

Natia walks over to us, her hands bruised and bleeding and Mandy looking at her.

"He's conscious… but he's gonna be hurting for a while." Natia says, Mandy nodding.

Silence from her is more eerie than the screaming.
