Feuding between two superstars is one thing, being in the ring with them is tough enough, but refereeing a match between Batista and MVP would be almost impossible. Throughout the match, Adrian decided to stay outside of the match, letting the two at it. A false count though made MVP log a victory over Batista. The aftermath however wasn't pretty. Both MVP and Batista ganged up on Adrian, until Layla rushed out.
"Guys enough!" she yelled. "Please! This isn't working! Leave him alone!"
The two refused to listen and continued the brutal assault upon Sanchez.
"STOP IT RIGHT NOW!" Layla screamed. The screech had finally caught their attention. "How do you think this makes me feel huh? Knowing that you three are all trying to outmacho eachother for me. And don't tell me otherwise. Believe me: I know men and I know when they are trying to impress a woman.
"She sees right through them Cole!" laughed JBL.
"I can only think of one way to solve this. This Sunday at Judgment Day…you're all going to compete in a triple threat ladder match and I'll manage whoever wins. Whoever doesn't wins had better act like a gentleman about it…or I'll never speak to you again!" With that, she left, leaving a confused trio standing there.
It's gonna take more then that to outsmart him Adrian…tell me about it…nice moves…thanks, you're not too bad yourself…I'm Adrian…name's Nire…everybody calls me Noche…dude are you allright…street fighting…let go of me…help…PROJECT FALCON…aaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT THIS TIME!!!!!!!!" screamed Adrian, lashing out at invisible enemies. He could barley breath as his eyes soon turned black, screaming and writhing in pain.
"Adrian!" yelled a voice, who had turned the lights on and rushed to his side.
"Adrian! Wake up! ADRIAN!"
"Noo…..not this…not this time…" Adrian awoke, panting heavily. "What…what happened?"
"You started screaming and lashing out at things."
He sighed and lay on the bed. "Are you allright Layla?"
"I'm fine. You kinda woke me up."
"I can see…"
As usual, Adrian had no place to sleep. He had been sleeping in alleyways and other places seeing that he had no home. His past was shrouded in mystery, and not even Adrian could solve it. Layla had been kind enough to let Adrian sleep over with her.
"Good time you woke up. It's Saturday." Said Layla.
"I know…" yawned Adrian.
"Come on. I got some stuff I need to do." She kissed Adrian on the cheek, then left.
He smiled and went to grab more of his clothes, proceeding out the door and out the apartment.
"Come on!" She laughed, as she walked down the street. Adrian just smirked, catching right up to her in an instant. They walked down the streets to the arena where JUDGEMENT DAY would take place. All of the Smackdown superstars were there preparing. As they walked, Layla let her hand fall into Adrian's, holding it. Adrian blushed again.
"So Falcon…think you can help me train today?"
"Sure. You could use some training for your match against Kristal."
She giggled and ran towards her locker room while Adrian headed to his own. It was a good thing Adrian was trained by the best. Originally, he had been trained by John Cena but he learned a lot more from other stars. He learned how to experiment with moves thanks to Rob Van Dam. He had also learned a variety of submission moves from Angle, Flair, and Benoit.
"Come on, you ready yet Falcon?" asked Layla. Adrian looked her over. She wore a simple tube top with flame jean pants.
"Definitely." He said.
They both climbed into the ring and practiced. Adrian worked on his vast arsenal of moves and helped Layla create some of her own. By the end of the day, she was just as good as him.
"Great job!" smiled Adrian. "You learn quickly."
"I learn from the best, that's why." She giggled, running off yet again back to her apartment. Adrian too needed sleep so he could prepare. He climbed into bed only to find Layla scooching in with him.
"What are you doing?" asked Adrian.
"Just needed somebody to cuddle with. That's all."
Adrian smiled. "Allright." She cuddled up against Layla, who nuzzled her head into his chest.
"Night Falcon."
"Night Layla."
Meanwhile though, the man who had run down Teddy Long was watching.
"Yes boss…I'll make sure he doesn't interfere with our plans."
