Wow! I didn't think that I would get many follows for the last chapter seeing that it was so short. Maybe I'm just underestimating myself. But thanks to all of you who followed, favorited, and/or reviewed on the last chapter.

Disclaimer:I still don't own anything in the WWE. If I did, The Shield wouldn't have broken up in the first place... but then my story wouldn't even exist. I don't think I thought that through... Also, just to let you guys know; In this story, CM Punk and Jeff Hardy are STILL in the WWE. Anyway, enjoy the chapter!


Alex woke up at 10 o'clock the next morning with a splitting headache, cursing the fact that daylight exist. She pulled the covers over her head and groaned.

"It's about time that you woke up." Cassinae said from her bed.

"I'm not in the mood for your wisecracks Cassinae."

"Do I have to call Phil about converting you to the Straight Edge lifestyle?"

"I don't need to be Straight Edge." Alex said glaring.

"Your hangover says differently."

"You're not even Straight Edge!"

"And I don't want to be. But I know how to drink and handle my alcohol intake." Cassinae said.

"I know how to handle my alcohol intake. You know this Browning." Alex said groaning as she got up before going to the bathroom. There was a knock at the door and Cassinae went and answered it.

"Morning Cassie."

"Sup Roman. You here to check on Alex?"

"Yeah, she was hitting the drinks pretty hard last night. How is she?"

They heard the sounds of Alex throwing up, causing them both to cringe.

"Does that answer your question?" Cassinae said.

"She should learn how to handle her alcohol." Dean said.

"Where did you even come from?"

"Well. One day 28 years ago, my parents were kinda in the mood for some excitement. So..."

"I didn't mean that Dean! God!" Cassinae said slapping him on the arm.

"Do you mind keeping it down!? Massive headache going on here." Alex said walking to the couch.

"Holy shit! It's The Walking Dead!" Dean said laughing at Alex's pale looking state.

"Fuck off Jonathan!"

Roman walked into the living room with a glass of water and some Tylenol.

"Here Alex. This should help with the headache."

"Thanks Roman." Alex said taking the Tylenol and water. "So, is there anything planned for you guys on Smackdown?"

"No. I guess they want to save an intense promo for RAW." Dean said.

"I have a match against Natalie tonight. A win over her might get me higher in the ranks a bit."

"I have full faith in you Cassinae. If you get put into the Sharpshooter then... I'll hope for the best."

"Really feeling the love Lexi." Cassinae deadpanned.

"Well I think I'm gonna hit the gym. Join me if y'all want." Cassinae said grabbing her gym clothes she was going to change into.


There were very few superstars and divas in the gym that morning. But Cassinae did noticed that her mentor was there, sitting on a work bench.

"Too much Pepsi Phil?" Cassinae said walking over to him.

"Ahh well, you know I'm addicted to it." Punk said chuckling.

"You had to have something to be addicted to huh?"

"You're just as bad as I am! So how's my rookie doing?" Punk asked.

"I haven't been a 'rookie' in 2 years." Cassinae said frowning. "But I'm good nonetheless."

"In the eyes of the 'Best in the World', you'll ALWAYS be a rookie. So your Shield buddies and Alex didn't follow you here?" Punk said looking around.

"Alex got drunk off her ass last night. But I bet if Roman comes here, she will too."

Punk raised an eyebrow. "Do I have to make her follow the Straight Edge lifestyle?"

"You know, I said the same thing this morning. But no you don't. Alex knows how to drink responsibly, she just overdid it that one time last night."

"You two are so mean to me." Alex said pouting as she came into the gym. "Roman! They're being mean to me. That's an injustice. Get Cassinae first."

"I got you Alex." Roman said picking Cassinae up and placing her over his shoulder.

"Ahh! Roman! Put me down!" Cassinae said hitting his back as he took her to the ring.

"Hmm let me think about that... nope. I'm just following Alex's orders, no hard feelings Cassie."

"Phil help me!" Cassinae said as Roman climbed the steel steps.

"That's not in my jurisdiction kiddo." Punk said.

"Some mentor you are! Seriously Roman, put me down!"

Roman chuckled and sat her down on the top turnbuckle. Cassinae folded her arms across her chest.

"That wasn't funny Roman."

"It kinda was Cassie." Dean said.

"Nobody asked you Ambrose." Cassinae said getting down. "I hate you for that Alex."

Alex smiled innocently. "I know. Come on, let's lock up."


They were in the locker room watching Dolph Ziggler fighting and defeating Fandango after Summer Rae came out and distracted him.

"This is why you don't mess with two girls at once." Dean said.

"Like you haven't done that before Ambrose." Alex said causing Dean to smirk.

"It's his own fault for rebounding so fast." Cassinae said putting on her gloves and lacing up her sneakers.

"You want me to come out with you? You know to pump up the crowd?"

"If you want to play cheerleader Alex, then by all means go for it." Cassinae said.

"What you need is a good looking guy out there with you." Dean said.

"Hmm... naw I'm good. Unless you know someone." Cassinae said.

"HEY! What's that supposed to mean?!" Dean said while Cassinae and Alex high-fived.

"See ya later Jonathan." Alex said as she and Cassinae left.


Next chapter we've got Natalya vs Cassinae. See ya in the next chapter everyone.
