To Kylie's shock, she managed to make it through the match she had against another Diva hopeful, and she got a spot on the list to be kept for the next round. This one, well, it made her nervous.

She had to sell a storyline that they gave her and a partner, one of the Superstars, at random and completely off the cuff. Thankfully, she'd taken a little bit of drama in high school, and did theater occasionally. She watched the various spins on romantic kayfabes she could be put in, and before she realized it, her time was there.

Paul looked at his daughter seriously, as he handed her the directions, and then tried to hide the smile of amusement. As a father, he didn't like the situation they were throwing her into, but at the same time, he had no doubt that she could and would sell it, as far as being convincing. Stephanie leaned in and then said "Shane put those two up to it, he's bored, wants to play cupid."

"Yeah, but as her daddy.. I'm having a hard time with this part of it all." Paul said as he turned his attention to the center of the ring, where supposedly, right now, Cody Rhodes and Daniel Bryan were having a "fight" over her. Cody was the "boyfriend" and Daniel was the pursuer.

Kylie stood in between the two males, and put her hands on both of their chests, firmly as her mind raced with reasons she'd egg on Daniel Bryan when she had Cody as a boyfriend, kayfabe..

Boredom, maybe?

No. Definitely the fact that he could be a jerk behind closed doors. He had that look about him. And the script specifically said that Daniel was supposed to be the one she "liked" more.

So, when Cody swung at Daniel, she shrieked, "No! Stop, damn it, Cody. If you want to hit someone, hit ME. I was the one knocking on his hotel room door late at night after we fought. I was the one who turned to him, to his arms when you treated me like crap. I.. I should have been a stronger woman, but.. I couldn't.."

She looked down, guilty.

Daniel studied the 5'2 blonde with heart shaped lips in fascination. Hell, he'd almost had to blink, that's how believable she'd made it sound. And she hadn't been that bad of a fighter either.

"Get out of the way, Kylie." Daniel muttered quietly, his voice coming out husky yet demanding.

"No. I'm not gonna let him hurt you for something I caused. Something I started."

Cody growled, menacingly as he said "Move it Ky, or I'll move you. Got it?"

"No, Cody. Don't do this. You've already lost, can't you see that?"

"But beating Bryan's face in will feel me so much better, babe. Or will you not want to fuck him anymore if I do that?"

"That's not fair, Cody. You fucked around on her the entire time, with half the females on the roster." Daniel said as he edged closer to Kylie now, drawn to her.

Kylie backed away from Cody who was stepping closer to her, arm reaching for her wrist.

Stephanie watched in amazement and a quick look at her fellow judges showed she wasn't the only one. Paul, while less than amused at the moment, was also shocked. It was almost like it was really happening, not just scripted.

Just as Cody's hand grazed her inner wrist, she smacked him. "Don't you dare touch me, Rhodes! You want to blame someone, blame yourself. You made me do this."

Daniel went with his first response which was to move his kayfabe 'affair' and punch Cody, shoving him down. "How's that feel you bastard?"

Cody sprang up, taking Daniel down as Kylie stood just out of the way, watching, biting her nails as she plotted her next "scripted" move.

When Cody tried to get Daniel into the move he was famous for, Kylie quickly grabbed a chair, and made it appear that she'd hit Cody with it.

Cody fell, as per script instructions, and Daniel picked up Kylie, carrying her out of the ring.

Paul stood and clapped, then yelled out to Daniel, "You. Bring my princess over here to me."

Daniel Bryan raised a brow, looked at the girl in his arms.

Why the fuck was his heart still pounding like a conga drum right now?

Cody watched her, smiling to himself. "If she makes it, I'd love to do a storyline with her, she's that damn good." he muttered before wandering over, and smiling as he said "That was awesome. I mean I was even having a hard time NOT believing it. If you don't get it.."

Kylie shrugged then smiling said "Thanks, Cody. I gotta go talk to my dad real quick, but maybe I'll run into you guys again soon.."

She felt eyes on her as Daniel and Cody stood there as she walked off.

"Kid.. That was amazing. I know you're my kid, and every bit your mother's daughter, and hell, Sable can pull off some major acting when she wants but damn..."

"Daaaad. I wasn't that good."

"Kid, every single Superstar judging was having a hard time deciding if that drama was real or fake just now. Even the way you pulled the strap on your tank top down, and made it look like Cody walked in on you and Daniel in the very beginning. That was really good, especially considering how little we wrote on your directions."

"Daaad."

Paul hugged his daughter and then said "I have a feeling you'll have to do another one with the rest of the ones we keep after this round."

Kylie smiled and bounced on her toes a little. That had been really exciting just now. She'd loved the whole spontaneous off the cuff crazy thing. And to hear her father say she was just as good as her mom at it when her mom had been so damn good at it when she was a diva..

She spotted her mother's caramel blonde hair as her mom came through the door and sat down.

Paul took out his phone and leaning in showed Sable a recording of moments before, and Sable smiled, shooting her daughter an enthusiastic thumbs up.

Kylie waited nervously, both fingers crossed, hoping she survived just one more round.
