To my dear lovely readers, the amount of votes that came in to decide the final three was phenomenal! You guys broke records for this chapter. Also to those who sent in their votes via PM, they were counted and I really appreciate that you guys cared so much to submit them that way. I have to say the end results were shocking. Also, sorry it ended up being such a late post! WWE owns all you know, and the authors own their OC's. Enjoy!
The next day the four remaining couples were called into the entertainment room. Inside there was a console set up and there were four remote controls. Triple H stood in front, minus his other two group members.
"Where's the rest of the goon squad?" Phil asked, smirking.
"There was some important business that needed to be handled in Stamford. They will not be here this week but they send their best." He said, ignoring Phil's comment.
"Not important enough to be included?" Phil antagonized the COO again.
"Watch it Brooks." Triple H said sternly. Jessica elbowed Phil in the ribs, silently telling him to shut up.
"Your next and last reward challenge is one I'm sure you'll all enjoy. You all get to play WWE 2k14. Eliminate the other couples and you win the reward. Up for grabs is a romantic rooftop dinner under the stars. Because there aren't many of you there will be no elimination challenge advantage. You have made it this far, you don't need that anymore." He said, "On TV 1, its Orton v Orton. TV 2, Cena v Ziggler. You must select Mixed tag and yourself. Lelia and Payton, we had custom characters created for you. The winners from each match will face off. Have fun!"
The couples all selected themselves and the matches begun. Of course there was some trash talking.
"Ew, Randy what was that? Did your character just spaz? I always knew you had a couple of screws loose." Jessica said, taunting her older brother.
"It's my taunt, way better than your dumb little hip shake."
"You're just jealous because my character is good looking." She fought back.
"HA. Good looking? They made you look like an over done up hooker." Randy said, turning to smirk coldly at his sister.
"RANDY!" Payton yelled, but it was too late. Phil had pinned Randy and his character was too beat up to kick out. The ref counted and the bell was heard.
"Jess and Phil you move on, Randy and Payton, better luck next time." Triple H said.
"Awe look, virtual Cena has the five moves of doom too!" Dolph said laughing.
"Listen these five moves of doom are going to whoop your ass." John said in retaliation.
"Melissa it's a shame that you're character is prettier than you." Lelia said smirking as she connected another cheap shot to Melissa's character.
"Excuse me?" Melissa asked side glancing at the model.
"I mean, my character is spot on. Gorgeous just like me." Lelia said smiling, "Yours looks like a man, but then again…" she said trailing off.
"That's it, I'm kicking your ass in real life forget the game." Melissa threw the remote just as Lelia pinned her.
"CENA." Triple H growled as John quickly slipped an arm around his fiancés waist, holding her back from destroying the model. "OUT." He said again, as the couple left the room.
"Phil, Jessica, you're up against Dolph and Lelia."
The match went back and forth for a bit before Dolph picked up the pin over Phil.
"Dolph and Lelia, you will be picked up promptly at 7, enjoy your dinner." With that the COO left room. Jessica looked up and smiled sadly at Phil, they were so close to winning three reward challenges in a row.
Dolph and Lelia on the other hand were ecstatic. They had gotten their groove back and picked up another reward win.
7 rolled around and the couple walked out of the house feeling and looking like a million bucks. They rode in a limo all the way there while cuddling in the back. Dolph couldn't stop smiling. They shared small talk over dinner, all while keeping their hands interlocked over the table.
"See what we can do when we are on the same page babe?" Dolph asked her.
"I know. We can't keep losing sight of what's important. Us and winning." Lelia told him. All Dolph did was smile and lean forward kissing her sweetly.
"Let's kick some ass." He said smiling.
The next day the four couples were called back to the beach, where the first challenge had taken place. Triple H again stood solely infront.
"Welcome to the relay race! You will have to swim run and solve your way to the finish line. Think of it as a combination of most of the challenges you have competed in. Also, once this is over, one of you will be eliminated on the spot. Since it's just me, I really don't have to refer to anyone." He said laughing.
"Are you ready?" he asked, much like he would with Shawn, "GO!" Immediately the men ran forward and swam out to the poles. On four of them were bags of puzzle pieces. Phil and John had retrieved their bags first with Dolph and Randy hot on their heels. They ran back to the girls and threw them the bags. Jessica immediately got to work, on the puzzle while Phil dropped to his knees to catch his breath. Dolph was next to get to Lelia, as he outran Cena and Orton. The girls worked as fast as they could, Jessica was the first to get the puzzle correctly followed by Melissa. Once the puzzle was together it unlocked a box that contained a rope. The couples ran to the four walls set up, from the second week. They were to use the rope to get over the wall and then cross the finished line.
Phil and Jessica were the first to lasso their rope, climb up and over the wall, and crossed the finish line. Followed by them were John and Melissa. Dolph and Lelia came in third, while Triple H stopped after them. He walked over to Randy and Payton who were still trying to finish the puzzle.
"Guys, stop. It's done. I'm sorry but Randy and Payton, you have been eliminated." Triple H said with a straight face.
Randy couldn't believe it. Him and Payton didn't even get a chance to defend themselves. They weren't going to the finals, and the worst part was, that his sister is in the final three. She beat him.
"Please leave." Triple H said.
"Hunter…" Randy started.
"Leave." He said sternly.
Payton looked at Randy as a tear slipped down her cheek. This was her fault, they were doing so well and then she had to mess up with the puzzle and now they lost.
"Pay…" Randy said, seeing her upset, "I don't even want you to think what you're thinking. It's not and that's all you need to know." He grabbed her hand and led her to their room, to gather their stuff and leave.
Triple H walked over to the three couples. All were catching their breath while an onsite doctor wrapped Phil's knee.
"Congratulations guys! You are in the finals. One of you guys will win this whole thing. Expect you to be tried. There are no more cushy reward challenges. You need to prove to myself as well as Vince and Stephanie that you should win this. However there are other people you need to prove yourselves too as well," he said, "fourteen other people." He said smiling.
I know it was a little short, but with less people there are less things to include.
Thank you to Illest Bitch for submitting Randy and Payton. They kicked some serious ass in this competition!
So as stated in the chapter, there is NO REWARD CHALLENGE. Just who you want and who you don't.
I need:
Who you WANT to WIN the WHOLE COMPETITION
Who you DO NOT WANT to WIN
Thanks and see you next week with the winner!
