3/9/16, NXT, Amanda Cena vs Adrian Neville, 20 minutes ago…

"Cena going-no wait, Neville reversing the inverted Mistress Chamber!" Tom Phillips exclaimed, jumping back in fright when Adrian slammed Amanda into the top turnbuckle and she lost her grip on him and fell.

It wasn't hard to tell that her shoulder was out of its socket… Amanda pulled herself up so she was propped up against the lower and middle turnbuckles and felt hands on her arm but then Finn turned to Adrian in anger.

Amanda took advantage of that and relocated her left shoulder, Finn turning back to her and keeping her from getting up.

"I've got a match to get back to!" Amanda said quietly.

"You've got a shoulder that needs to be fixed, the match can happen another time." Finn responded as he picked Amanda up into his arms and took her out of there…

Present time...

Adrian didn't attempt to find them just yet… he was kicking a crate in the backstage area before he was suddenly grabbed by Natasha and thrown into the wall.

"How does that feel, huh, being thrown with too much force?!" Natasha growled.

"It wasn't intentional, I know my limits with someone that small!" Adrian said defensively but Natasha could tell he was half lying.

"You do but you tossed them out the window tonight!" Natasha said.

"I got moved up to the main roster last year after three years of busting my ass here in NXT! But they keep dragging me back here and not putting me in the contention I've worked so hard for! Finn shows up and before I know it, I'm sitting back while he's getting opportunities and championships… more screen time than me and others all because he's banging the sister of one of the top guys in this company!" Adrian responded, getting angrier with every second… but he wasn't the only one.

From the trainer's office on the other side of the building, Amanda and Finn jumped out of their skin when they heard the scream and the wall break into pieces… Amanda started to stand up as flashbacks of Brock Lesnar throwing Matt Hardy through a wall nearly 14 years ago resurfaced but Finn got her to sit back down as her left shoulder had an ice pack taped to it.

"You don't think that was caused by Nikki's friend Natasha, do you?" Amanda asked, Nikki Cross having not yet introduced them to Natasha but had told them about her.

"It sounds like she's giving Adrian the beating he deserves." Finn answered as Amanda rubbed her now numb shoulder.

"You know it was an accident out there, we've both known him for years." Amanda said.

"Yeah… what was also an accident was Vlad the Impalor ordering the deaths of over 10,000 people, apparently he coughed and asked for water in his language but instead accidentally said 'kill everyone'." Finn responded, having been reading a few historical books lately out of an unknown sparked interest.

"The one part of History class I did really well in…" Amanda responded, the door flying open and then slamming shut as a frightened Bayley ran in. "How bad is it getting?" She asked.

"She's trying to murder him!" Bayley answered before the screaming suddenly stopped.

Natasha was pulled off of a bruised and bleeding Adrian, turned and saw Nikki.

"Natasha, it's over! It's done, he got the beating he deserved!" Nikki said.

"He deserves to burn in the dungeons!" Natasha growled, currently lost in her powers as her eyes were glowing red and her shoulders flickering with tiny fires around the outline of the pentagram scarred into her skin.

"Put those away before you traumatize everyone!" Nikki whispered, Natasha forcing herself back to her human form.

"Damn it, where did… ouch…" Natasha hissed after a moment, getting a deep set migraine as she sometimes did when she forced herself to change, as it put major strain on her to focus enough to do it. Otherwise it could take up to weeks for her to change back from even a half converted form.

Nikki led her to the trainer's office, Natasha seeing Bayley hiding under the table and walked over to her, Amanda and Finn.

"Is it over?" Bayley asked shakily.

"It's over… sorry about that." Natasha answered, helping Bayley up to her feet and glancing at Amanda.

"I don't want to… hear what he said, do I?" Amanda asked, knowing from the look in Natasha's eyes that Adrian had provoked her but not with anything he thought of Natasha.

"No, you don't. You also… don't want to know what I wanted to do back there." Natasha responded, Amanda swearing that when Natasha turned her head, when the light gave a side-on reflection to her eyes, they were almost tinted red like ruby crystals.

Amanda nodded and started removing the tape and ice pack from her shoulder, setting both aside… and Finn rested his left hand on the back of her neck, lightly rubbing it as he knew she had been fighting her suspicions that Adrian had started becoming unhappy with the direction things were going.

"He should've had the damn nerve to say it to us." Amanda muttered.

"Would it really make a difference? You'd still call out inseparable and he'd still be just as, if not even more angry… on things like this when they won't back off and agree that it's a solid thing, it's just inevitable." Natasha said in response.

Amanda nodded and headed off to get cleaned up after she and Finn hugged… when she was and after she was in normal clothes, her arm was placed into a sling and she saw Bayley take Finn's duffel bag before Bayley grabbed Amanda's and decided to let them talk.

"She's not angry… she's usually screaming when she is." Bayley said as Natasha took one of the duffel bags.

"She's hurt and betrayed, I know that feeling." Natasha replied.

"I hope that beating knocked some sense into him." Bayley responded as they put the duffel bags in the car.

Back in the locker room, Finn was sitting next to Amanda, who had her eyes closed for a few seconds as his hand lightly ran up and down her back.

"I feel so stupid for trusting him… first this whole thing with Seth, then the majority of the NXT locker room gets set off… why are people jumping off the damn rails?" Amanda said quietly.

"It's just different… people are naturally scared of the unknown, sometimes they come to hate it." Finn responded, his other hand lightly closing its fingers around her arm, the fingers slowly trailing around a bit.

"Well I hope at some point, they calm down… but that might not happen for a while." Amanda said, Finn helping her stand up and her rubbing her injured shoulder when pain jarred through it.

The two met up with Bayley, Natasha and Nikki, deciding on heading back to the hotel.
