Chapter 4- Last Goodbyes

Kaitlyn

"Alex please calm down!"

Kaitlyn watched as her friend flipped over a table in rage, his face full of anger. Before Kaitlyn was to be sent to the Training Centre before being placed in the arena, she was to say goodbye to everyone she cared about. All that was left now was to say goodbye to her close friends in the wrestling industry. Including Alex, who didn't seem to be taking it well. Even her best friend Aj Lee took it better then Alex:

Aj Lee walked into the room where Kaitlyn had to stay until called to the Jet that'd take her to the training centre. Immediately she hugged Kaitlyn tightly, tears streaming down her face. Seeing Aj cry brought tears to Kaitlyn too.

"It should be me!" She kept repeating over and over.

"No it shouldn't have!"

"But my name was called!"

Kaitlyn let go of her friend, watching as Aj wiped her tears.

"I don't want you to do this! I'll take my place back!"

"No Aj! I won't let you do that!"

"But you could die!"

This made Kaitlyn speechless. Sure she knew this already, but hearing it being said made her really believe it.

They only had a couple minutes before the guards would come in and take Aj away from her. Forever.

"Aj you're the best friend I could ever ask for.."

"No please Kaitlyn.."

"Just listen Aj! I know I won't make it-"

"Please try!" Aj whined, her eyes filling with tears again. "Try your best! For me?"

Kaitlyn let out a long sigh and half smiled. "Okay fine. I'll try my best. For you. And Alex."

This seemed to cheer Aj up a tiny bit.

"Aj Lee. Times up." A security guard dressed in a black suit stood at the open door, his eyes on Aj.

Kaitlyn gave her friend one last hug before waving her goodbye.

However when Alex came in he immediately slammed the door shut and punched at the wall.

She only had 3 minutes left with him and they barely even spoke yet.

"Alex we don't have long..."

Alex looked down at the now turned over table, clearly thinking something over.

"What's wrong?" Kaitlyn could see Alex wanted to tell her something.

Finally Alex brought his attention to her, his eyes gazing into hers.

"I... I just don't want you to do this. I can't imagine what it'd be like without you.. You have to win this."

"Aj made me promise the same thing.." Kaitlyn frowned at the thought of her crying best friend.

"Well then you can't break a promise made to both your best friends right?"

"Guess not.." She sounded doubtful.

"You can win this Kaitlyn. You're smarter then everyone else. Even the ones smarter then you, you can leave to the stronger ones. Try hide like Ashley did during her time in the arena! Do everything it takes to win!"

Alex's words brought some confidence to Kaitlyn. She was starting to think, no believe she could win this but there was only one problem.

"What about sponsors?"

A grimace appeared on Alex's face. He obviously had forgotten about sponsors as well.

"I guess your interview before you compete will determine that. You gotta make an impact!"

"I'll try."

"Not just try. Succeed!" Alex placed his hands on her shoulders, his eyes still locked onto hers. "And please stay away from Rhodes okay? I have a really bad feeling about him. Also, if you're choosing an Ally, choose wisely and don't get to close. Oh and one more thing.. There's something I've been meaning to tell you. I know now is a really bad time, but I can't let you go without you knowing how I feel. Kaitlyn I-"

His words were interrupted by a knock on the door and the same security guard leaning against the doorframe. "Times up."

"One minute!" Alex snapped at the guard, still not taking his eyes off Kaitlyn."

"No, your time is up." The guard repeated, making his way over to Alex to pull him away.

Alex hit the guards hands away and with an annoyed grunt he walked past the guard and out the door, before stopping at the doorframe and turning back to Kaitlyn.

"Good luck.." And with that, he was gone.

Kaitlyn turned her attention off the now empty doorway to the security guard.

"Is that everyone?" She said with a sigh.

Her question was answered when three people entered the room.

"We wouldn't forget to say goodbye to you silly!" Even in this situation, A.J Kirsch was as goofy as ever. His arm was wrapped tightly around the waist of a girl, who seemed to be in her late teens. Seeing the way AJ was holding her, Kaitlyn knew this must be his girlfriend. Behind the couple, looking away from everyone else in the room, eyes full of hurt, was Ted DiBiase.

'He must've just said his goodbyes to Kelly Kelly.' Kaitlyn thought to herself, feeling sorry for him.

The goodbye to the trio didn't take too long as she just hugged all three and they wished her good luck. Before they left, Kaitlyn put her hand on Ted's shoulder. She looked into his eyes, uncertain what to say but wanting to comfort him.

"If she has to die, please make sure it's not slow and painful. Please make her your ally? Even if it's just for a little while.. I talked to her and she's okay with being your ally if you are." Ted said as if he could tell what she was thinking. "I know that you both can't win.. And it'd be selfish of me to ask you to sacrifice your life for hers."

Kaitlyn looked away, it was true it'd be selfish. But she wasn't going to give up the idea completely. As she was considering this, she had a flashback of her promise to both Alex and Aj. No she had to win this, no matter what.

She responded to Ted with a slight nod and gave him a quick hug before he walked out the door.

That was everyone.

"It's time." The guard said as he held the door opening, gesturing for Kaitlyn to follow him.

It was time. Time to go to the jet. Where all other competitors would be. Thinking back to her promise, she now thought of the competitors as obstacles.

One way or another she'd have to get past these obstacles .

It was now kill or be killed.
