Part Four
She stood frozen, looking up at the three men above her standing in the box. Their arms were folded, and Kaitlyn couldn't help but notice Seth Rollins' attention was fully on her, him having no problem with letting the diva notice the glare he was giving her. Next to him stood Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns at either side, their eyes scanned the arena, occasionally looking over at the younger man of the trio.
She had a feeling they'd show up at some point during the night - more so during her match later tonight - but not during her tag match, so why exactly were they here right now and what were their intentions? Right now wasn't the time to be thinking that through considering she was in the middle of match, which the diva quickly reminded herself about, turning around to face Eve, who had just about pulled herself up by the ropes. She'd noticed the Shield's appearance and how it had distracted Kaitlyn and aimed to take advantage, going for a roll-up pin on the other diva, though Kaitlyn managed to kick out after two.
"Jesus, that was close." Kaitlyn looked over to the woman who said that, her tag partner, Layla whoch had just gotten back onto the apron, evidently not noticing the Shield. She was right, it was close, too close. The Hybrid diva cursed as she shot a quick glance at the men still stood above her, the men that had almost cost her this match. She couldn't help but think that they would do this again during her other scheduled match tonight, show up purely to distract her, which didn't sound good, at all. It was clear that the match most likely had a stipulation engraved in it somewhere, she didn't know what it was, and right now she was trying her hardest to push it to the back of her mind, which was a little hard to do with them making an appearence here right now.
Kaitlyn quickly got to her feet, only just dodging a kick to the abdomnem from Eve and hitting the Divas champion with a German suplex. The diva went for the pin, only just getting the two count thanks to Aksana's interference of breaking it up. Before Kaitlyn had a chance to get one back at the black haired woman, Layla was heading down from the top rope with a crossbody to Aksana, then rolling her out of the ring so her partner could get the pin on Eve. Kaitlyn hooked her leg only just getting the three count before Aksana could break it up again.
The referee didn't really have chance to raise the blonde's arm because of the English woman near enough diving on her. "You did it, Kait, we won!" Of course, it would be Layla that was more enthusiastic about their win given the look on Kaitlyn's face, which the older woman quickly caught onto as she turned her gaze to just who it was that had Kaitlyn almost mesmerized, and her eyes widened at the sight. Dean and Roman had turned around and started to head off, though Seth stood there a few seconds longer, his eyes not leaving Kaitlyn's at all.
"What the hell are they doing here?" Layla asked, and Kaitlyn looked over at her worryingly. "I have no idea."
The two women stood in the ring still, both looking over to where they expected to see Seth Rollins standing, but he'd left.
"Are you ladies okay?" The voice came from the man that had refereed the match, Mike Chioda. The man was probably wondering why they were still stood in the ring, obviously not noticing why they looked so surprised.
"Uh, yeah...come on, Lay."
They exited the ring and walked down the ramp, Kaitlyn still cautious with her surroundings. As crazy as it sounded, she hoped The Shield didn't have anything else 'planned' for her, she didn't know what to expect from them, no one did. They came across as dark and secretive, like if they didn't want anyone finding out or knowing things, it would stay that way. Honestly, she wished she knew more about them, but at the same time wanted to keep as far away from them as possible. Truth being, they intrigued her. Ever since their episode at Survivor Series they'd immidiately caught her attention, they scared yet fascinated her. As worried as she was about what her friend had told her early in the night, she was also really curious about it and she wanted to know the reason behind it.
She tried to push the thoughts aside and headed through the curtain with Layla.
"I'll stay with you in the locker room until it's time for you match. It seems like the only 'safe' place to be right now what with those jerks creeping around." The older diva scowled as she said that, and Kaitlyn could tell that she was worried about her, or even angry about the situation herself. Nonetheless, Kaitlyn appreciated that Layla was there with her and really concerned.
"Thanks Lay, but you really don't have to spend your time doing that, I'm sure I'll be okay."
"Are you joking? After seeing them show up during our match? I don't trust them at all and neither should you."
"I don't, it's just-"
"Good. Which is why I'll be staying with you, that includes during this match tonight. God knows who they've chosen to be your opponent, but I'll be there at ringside whether you like it or not."
