Author's Note: Short chapter. Athena and Devon work the Knockout match. Athena confronts the woman who pissed her off last week. What will happen? Who walks away with the belt? Thanks to coolchic79260 for reviewing.

~~~~~~~~~Sunday July 10th, 2011 Sawyer's Locker room (Athena's POV)~~~~~~~
Our match was on fourth right before the Ultimate X match. Everyone was at home besides Devon and I. I was wearing Daisy Duke Shorts in dark blue and a crimson tank top. This would allow enough room to move hopefully. I wasn't sure what this match would involve. My hair was pulled into a ponytail to keep it out of my way. Devon was almost a mirror of my gear. Only her shorts were light blue and her tank top was white. We had taped each other's wrists and now sat waiting. I closed my eyes briefly. I looked at my sister and offered her a smile. Tommy knew how to make anything better. We were going separately. We wouldn't be introduced until we were all in the ring. Finally I stood. It was time to go. I was glad that Kazarian, Douglas Williams, and Eric Young and Shark Boy had won. I walked out to I Got It From My Mamma. I looked at the ring and saw Brooke Jarrett, Star Jarrett, Lust, Rosita, and Tori were already in the ring. I got into the ring and my music was cut off for "Let the Bodies Hit The Floor". Eve walked out and got into the ring. Her music cut off and was replaced by "Drop Dead Beautiful". Devon walked out. Once we were all in the ring Christy started introductions.
"The following contest is an Ultimate X match to determine the first Knockout X Division Champion. The Knockout who grabs the X between the cables is the winner." Christy said.
"First from Baton Rouge, Louisiana Star Jarrett." Christy said. Star stepped forward and waved her hand.
"Next from Baton Rouge, Louisiana Brooke Jarrett." Christy said. Brooke barely moved. I was worried about her.
"Next from Brooklyn, New York Lust." Christy said. Lust smiled at me and pointed at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Next from Mexico Rosita." Christy said. It was weird to see Rosita without Sarita.
"Next from Atlantic City, New Jersey Tori Spiro." Christy announced. Tori smiled and waved not that anyone was cheering her.
"Next from Sterling Heights, Michigan she is one half of the Knockout Tag Team Champions Athena Sawyer." Christy announced. I took a small bow as everyone yelled my name.
"Next from Los Angeles, California Eve Kendrick." Christy announced. Eve winked at the fans.
"Finally from Sterling Heights, Michigan she is the other half of the Knockout Tag Team Champions Devon Sawyer." Christy announced as she got out of the ring. None of us had seen the belt yet but we could see where it sat. Phoenix was sitting by it. The match started and I walked toward Lust. We locked up.
"Why did you smack me on Impact?" I asked.
"I saw him first." She hissed.
"What?" I asked.
"I saw Tommy first." She replied.
"No, you didn't. I did. He's mine." I hissed.
"For now." She said as she pushed me back. I growled before I leveled her with a Spear. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Brooke and Star Jarrett double teaming Tori Spiro. It lucked like something the Motor City Machine Guns would do. Devon was tangled up with Rosita and Eve. I decided to continue on with Lust. I started pummeling her with left and rights. I pulled back to see Devon had come over and was pulling me up.
"No more." She said.
"Let's nail this." I said.
"With what?" She asked.
"Fatale Attraction." I answered. Devon shook her head before we nailed it on Lust. We turned back for Rosita and Tori to nail us each respectively. Tori nailed me with a wicked jumping reverse Bulldog after she had gotten behind me. Rosita had nailed Devon with something. I was holding my head. Rosita was just getting up. I could see Eve nailed Rosita with a Corkscrew neckbreaker. If I looked up I could see Brooke and Star Jarrett battling it out at the top of the cables. I was tempted to shake my head when Tori pulled Star off of the ropes and it actually backfired on Tori because after Star's head hit the mat Star staggered to her feet and nailed Tori with a back flip kick. Before any of us could get up and try to get Brooke from the cables she dropped down with the X in her hand. The bell rang. Christ stayed silent.
"The winner of the match and new Knockout X Division Champion Brooke Jarrett." Phoenix said as she got into the ring. I looked at the belt. The leather was blue green and the design for the entire belt reminded me of what the WWE's Women's Title had looked like. The X was a soft rose petal pink. Brooke held the belt to her chest.
I saw Devon's hand as she pulled me up. I went over to Brooke and offered her my hand.
"Congratulations." I said.
"Thank you." She whispered. I saw something flash in her eyes. I took the time to look at the side plates. That was an awesome belt. Devon smiled at Brooke before we left. We all did. Except for Brooke and Star. We walked into our locker room and sat down. We would stay for the rest of the show.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Devon's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I didn't care we lost. I watched as the Ultimate X match started. Alex had gotten a kiss from Star which had me wondering about their relationship status.
"Hey why did Portia attack you?" I asked.
"Tommy." Athena answered. My head snapped toward my sister.
"What?" I asked.
"She apparently wants him." Athena replied. I shook my head and we continued watching the match. When Alex picked up the win it was impressive. My eyes widened when Chris Sabin walked out. He held the X with Alex once before he turned to Brooke and kissed her.
"Hm. That's why she wasn't up to speed at the beginning." Athena said.
"Yeah. Well she'll have to be back every thirty days now." I said with a smile. Athena shrugged. We watched RVD pick up the victory and then Austin Aries land a contract.
"I think they should sign them all." I said.
"I agree with you." Athena said. We watched as Brian Kendrick started his match with Abyss. I didn't expect Brian to win. I was shocked when Bischoff came out. I was my jaw hit the floor when Kendrick punched him in the face. I shook my head when Immortal came out but the entire X Division came out to fight them back. Luckily the ref saw Brian pinning Abyss and counted to three. They put Brian on his shoulders and Eve was coming down the ramp with a smile on her face.
"That's sweet his sister is coming to congratulate him." I said.
"I don't think they're brother and sister." Athena said a moment later. She was right. Brian was outside the ring and Eve had hugged him only to kiss him on the lips.
"Want to wager they're married?" Athena asked.
"No." I said with a smile. We stayed glued to the seats as we watched A.J. Styles versus Daniels. I didn't know who to root for. This match was one that I would forever remember. It was such a back and forth action. My breath lodged in my throat at the thought of Daniels turning against A.J. after the belt. Luckily they hugged.
"Let's go home." I said.
"Yes. I need to have a conversation with Tommy." Athena said. We grabbed our bags without bothering to change and headed for our separate cars. We had different destinations. I would be glad to see my sister on Thursday and hoped that she and Tommy could work this out.
