Chapter 7: Fight With Melina

Christina returned to work three weeks later and she was having her first number one contenders match for the WWE Women's championship against Melina to go up against Candice Michelle. She had a rabid tank top on that was specially made for her and a pair of wrestling pants that were her fathers. She strapped her wrestling boots on and fixed her brown hair into a ponytail. She began her exercises that she normally did before a match. One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, and one hundred pull-ups. She was ready to go for her match the first time in a long time.

There was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

"Miss Benoit it is time for your match."

"Thank you." She said opening the door and heading towards the ring.

-Ringside-

"Christina Benoit's first match in three weeks since her father's death and I am surprised that this young diva is coming back out into the public and continuing on the wrestling career of the Benoit family." Said Jerry.

Melina's theme song rang through out the arena.

"This match is scheduled for one fall and it is for the number one contenders spot for the WWE Women's championship. Making her way to the ring from Los Angeles California Melina!"

Melina came out and got into the ring doing her normal split getting into the ring.

Chris' old theme song rang through out the arena.

"And her opponent from Atlanta Georgia Christina Benoit."

Christina came out and cracked her neck like her dad always did. She headed down towards the ring.

"She looks like her dad when she does that cracking of her neck. I think this WWE Diva can beat Melina tonight for the number one contenders spot for the WWE Women's championship." Said Jr.

Candice's theme rang through out the arena. Candice came out and got towards them at ringside.

"Welcome to the announcement table Candice." said Jerry.

"It is good to be here Jerry and Jr." Said Candice smiling as she held onto the WWE Women's championship belt.

"So Candice who do you think is going to win this match?" Asked JR.

"I think that young diva Christina Benoit is going to win this match because she has Canadian in her blood and she is much like the Canadian Clipper Cross Face. So she is going to teach Melina a few things that she never would have thought would happen in a WWE ring."

"Christina Benoit going for the sharpshooter. Can she lock it on Melina? Yes the sharpshooter is locked into place. Come on Christina win this shot!" Yelled Jerry excited for what was going on in the ring.

Melina tapped out.

Christina's theme song rang through out the arena.

"Here's your winner and the number one contender for the WWE Women's Championship Christina Benoit!"

Christina held her hand up in victory and looked down at Melina. She had a sad expression on her face as she got out of the ring and walked up the ramp to get away from what was bothering her.

-Backstage-

Maria ran up to her. "Do you think I can get an interview with you in a few moments?"

Christina looked at her. Maria's green eyes clashing with Christina's blue eyes. "I don't see why not." She said softly.

"Alright thank you. I'll let you go and change."

Christina nodded her head and went to her locker room to go and change her clothes. She changed quickly and met up with Maria outside of her locker room.

"Maria here with the number one contender Christina Benoit. So Christina how does it feel to be the number one contender for the WWE Women's Championship?"

Christina looked at the camera. "It feels great to be part of this WWE Women's championship match next week on Raw. I am always making promises to myself to keep myself on top of this thing. So I will become the next WWE Women's champion. I will become one of the greats in the women's division. Just like Chris Benoit my father who was one of the greats in the men's division." She walked away leaving Maria baffled about the whole thing. She left the arena and met up with Adam who was sitting outside waiting for her.

"Chrissy."

She turned and faced him. "Yes Adam?"

"Hey you ready to go?"

"Aren't you supposed to be at a SmackDown arena?"

Adam shook his head. "No I took the day off."

"Why?"

"I am still worried about you."

"Adam why are you worried about me?"

"Because Chris wouldn't be none too happy if you hardly eat anything."

Christina sighed. "Please Adam you may have been my dad's best friend and all besides Eddie, but please. I know what I am doing."

"Do you know what some people say about you Christina?"

"What do they say about me?"

"They say that you are so much like your father. You should begin to act like it more instead of starving yourself."

She looked at him. "Why do you of all people care so much huh? I am nothing but a diva and that's all I am."

Adam kissed her to shut her up. He pulled away from her. "Don't you see Chrissy I care for you more then you think. You're father knew that and so did Eddie."

"You kissed me though."

"Because you won't listen to me."

"Come on Adam. If my father was still alive he would probably kick your ass for kissing me."

"You are a good person Chrissy. Everyone knows that. You just have to understand that. Just let someone get close to you."

"That's not the point Adam. I can't get close to anyone I hope you understand that Adam. I just can't get close to you or any one else until I am ready to."

"Alright."

"I should go now." She said leaving Adam standing there to think about what he had done to her. He had kissed her and she couldn't accept that maybe he truly did love her more then she thought.

Chris watched his daughter leave Adam alone. He just plain and simply shook his head.

"Chris Holmes what's wrong?"

Chris looked at Eddie. "Man I am not sure about this whole being dead thing. I mean I love hanging out with you and all, but seeing Chrissy act like this it's heart breaking."

Eddie put his hand on his friend's shoulder. "She'll be fine Holmes. She just needs time to grow up more."

"Grow up? She's is all grown up Eddie. She's an adult. She has coped with death so much."

Eddie shook his head. "Listen to yourself man. You sound like a broken record."

Chris looked at Eddie with a stern look on his face. "I don't sound like a broken record." He mumbled.

"Yes you do Esse. She can handle things on her own. You'll see."

"Uh huh sure."

"Come on Esse let's go."

-Christina's Hotel Room-

Christina tossed her rental car keys on the nightstand that was next to her bed. She felt dirty in a way she thought she never would feel. She had let Adam kiss her and that was the mistake that she didn't want to make again. She changed her clothes into a pair of night shorts and a tank top that said 'Benoit for life'. She took a deep breath and crawled into her bed to finally go to sleep dreaming again about the life she wanted to have. She rolled over and closed her eyes.

-Dream-

"Chrissy honey wake up." Said Chris in a soft voice.

Christina woke up and looked up into Chris' blue eyes. "Dad what is it?"

"I think I know who killed me."

"You do? How why?"

"I watched carefully. I saw Kevin Sullivan."

"Kevin Sullivan isn't that the guy that made Nancy have an affair with you?"

Chris nodded his head.

Christina sat up. "Where was he?"

"He was at the show tonight. He is the only one that knows that you lived with us. He's going to come after you."

"No he possibly couldn't."

Chris ran a hand through his hair. "Honey I know it is hard to believe and all, but please listen to me. Kevin Sullivan is going to come after you. He knew that you supported me and Nancy when we got married. So he knows that you know that I didn't kill my family."

"Well dad. What can I do?"

"I want you to stay close to Adam."

"Why Dad? I can't stay near Adam."

"Why can't you Christina?"

"Because dad. Adam kissed me today."

"So what if he kissed you honey. He loves you and I knew that for a long time. I want you to be safe. The only way that you can be safe is if he stays with you are all times."

"What am I supposed to tell Vince then. Tell him that I should be moved to SmackDown in order to be with him and stay there. I can't dad. I am going to be WWE Women's champion soon."

"WWE Women's champion. Maybe you'll be able to get Vince to agree to letting Adam move to Raw then."

"Dad I don't know what to do." she said running a hand through her hair.

"Honey try to keep yourself close to someone and never go any where alone."

"I'll try dad."

"Don't try please do."

Christina nodded her head. "Alright dad."

"I will see you soon honey."

-End of Dream-

Christina shot up out of bed again. She bit her lip and knew that she had to do something really important and do something right and that was to take care of what her father had given to her in information. She knew that she had to tell Vince the horrible truth that he didn't know. No one, but her knew and she knew that she was going to have to do something that she would regret later in trying to put Kevin Sullivan behind bars for what he had done to Nancy, Danial, and her father.

DXDXDXDXDX

That is the end of Chapter 6. I hope you enjoy it. I put Kevin Sullivan in it because of the fact being is that I read up about him and found out that he threatened Chris Benoit after he married Nancy and had his son Danial. He will be the bad guy in this story.
