A/N I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS. WWE DOES.

It has been three years since Dean and his younger brother Seth have joined TNA. It wasn't what they thought it was going to be, but this was just a stepping stone for them. Their ultimate goal was to go to WWE. The one thing that they didn't like was the fact that they kept getting told that teaming up wouldn't work for them. So they could only pursue singles careers. To them, it was a job that offered them decent pay and great exposure.

Even though the brothers loved doing the pay per view events and all the shows, they didn't really have time to to talk to their older brother. Honestly, they couldn't even recall what he was up too these past three years. They may have spoken to Roman a handful of times in these past years. It's very sad because they were really close. He did/sacrificed so much for the two of them and they can't even call him.

"Seth, what's wrong?" One minute Seth was okay, now Dean sees him sitting on his bed, knees pulled to his chest crying. Dean goes into Seth's room, sits on the bed beside his younger sibling and pulls him in close. Seth shrugs his shoulders. "I know when something is wrong. You know you can tell me." Dean would sit there as long as his brother needed until he wanted to talk.

"I miss Rome." It was all Seth said. It was all he had to say.

Once Dean heard Seth, he immediately pulled out his phone, dialing his older brother's number. After minutes of only ringing, Dean hung up.

About two weeks after Seth's meltdown, they were in the gym working out when Seth recieved a phone call. "Yes sir. Yes we are both interested. Thank you. Yes we can come by Thursday and have a sit down meeting. Yes sir. Thank you so much sir. Bye." Seth was shocked about the call he just revieved when Dean walked up to him.

"Who was that?" Dean asked Seth. It had to have been a suprise due to the expression on his younger brother's face.

Looking up at his brother, Seth said "We have a sit down meeting Thursday at the Performance Centre at Full Sail University with WWE officials. " Even repeating it, he still couldn't believe that it was true.

The look on Dean's face mirrored Seth's own shocked expression. Both Dean and Seth finished out their training session. Thursday, not coming soon enough for the brothers.

Arriving half an hour early, both Seth and Dean walked into the performance centre and were looking around the impressive training complex. This is way better then where they were at now. They only wish Roman was here with them. "Impressive isn't it?" A voice startled the two brothers. Turning around, they saw the COO Hunter Hurst-Hemsley along with his wife Stephanie McMahon. The shocked faces of both Dean and Seth made the WWE power couple laugh. "Hello, I'm Hunter, the COO of this amazing company, and this is my lovely wife Stephanie, who is partial owner of all this." With that, Hunter stretched out his hand to the two brothers. Both brothers shook hands with the couple in front of them.

The four went into an office to have their sit down meeting. The went on for roughly two hours. Some of the time spent was negotiating things, the other time was spent talking about random things. At the end, Hunter slid two contracts across the table to Dean and Seth. "You two have a lot of talent and we would like to showcase your talent here in the WWE." Stephanie really wanted these two boys in her company as much, if not more than Hunter.

The power couple give the two younger gentlemen tkme to read over their contracts that have been given to them. Inside those contracts it stated that they will start at the performance centre on NXT and eventually work up to the main roster. They also read over the little things that were expected of them. Then came the last thing, salary. At the same time the brothers on que said "DAMN!" Hunter and Stephanie both had to laugh at their reactions.

"We aren't rushing you two into anything. You have time to think and talk this over." Stephanie said to the brothers. Secretly, she wanted them to sign right away, but she knew she had to give them time, and that's what she would do.

As the meeting came to an end, all four got up from the table they were sitting around. They shook hands and what was very unusual was, that Hunter and Stephanie walked to the front doors of the performance centre with the brothers. It was weird, but they made them feel appreciated and welcome. The two brothers now had a lot of thinking to do.

A/N I didn't know what to put as Hunter's last name so I hyphenated his ring name. I know no creativity.
