"Me and your mum want to tell you three something" spoke Ricky as the family sat around the dinning table, the normal family dinner being loud with silence, the only sound being cutlery clinking off plates. The odd sound of someone drinking from their glass or cup. The father of three soon looked around the table, the sight of his only daughter staring back at him, along with his oldest son with the knowing look. Zak on the other hand with a curious look, wonder clear to see in his eyes as waited to hear what his parents had to tell them. "We've made the decision to move to Florida, the wrestling camp would do a lot better over there, your uncle Johnny will be running things from this end" finished the father of three as he once again looked around the table this time his gaze landing on his wife, the concern in her eyes on how her teenagers were going to respond to such a life changing move. Roy had taken to it, after some convincing but he had pointed out both Zak and Paige were still in education and would have to uproot everything they knew.
"We've been thinking about it for sometime" added Saraya, she knew for sometime her only daughter had suspected something, yet they had refused to tell her. She almost felt guilt when she watched as Paige stood and walked from the room, shaking her head as she did so. Zack looking as if he was unsure how to take the news, especially when he was in his first year of college and would have to leave his girlfriend in Gemma behind. "I'll go talk to her" added the mother of three, she was at least thankful two of those she called her children had stayed to hear their father out, yet both she and Ricky knew it would be the hardest on their youngest, she was after all just finding a small group of friends outside the group of boys who accepted her for who she was. "Paige" called the red head as she bung on the teenager's bedroom door, she soon entered to see the raven haired girl lying on the bed with her back to the door, clearly not wanting to talk. Saraya soon got hold of the leaflets for both schools both she and Ricky had come to the decision would be good for their daughter, although the disagreed on which would be best for her.
"We'll be moving once the school year is over" spoke Ricky downstairs revealing to his two sons, the family of five would be moving during the summer holidays, so Zak would be starting his second year in college at his chosen one in Florida much like Paige would be starting an entirely news school for her senior year. "From this time until then we'll be getting ready to go. Paige will be reviewing two potential schools and will have to choose by the time we go. Zak you will have to choose a college or university you want to attend to finish your course. Roy will be helping me and your mum with setting everything up and moving everything over" explained the patriarch of the small family, he knew his three kids wanted to following in his and Saraya's footsteps, by becoming professional wrestlers, he knew moving to the heart of it would be their best chance of that happening. Just as he knew Paige would struggle the most, senior year was always the toughest yet both he and her mother were asking her to move to an entirely different school and country, making it all that more harder for her.
Over at in Florida, the group known as the misfits were hiding in their tree house, the sound of Cena's voice clear to hear as he hunted for the place they went to hang out together besides the little park near by. Of course he had called the rest of the so called jocks in order to help him find it. Punk had pulled up the ladder to the wooden hideaway, watching as the group of teenage boys come stomping past as if they searching for a hidden storm shelter door amongst the fallen leaves and twigs. Layla, Summer and AJ, watching as the group of six appeared from the trees, looking around them. Dean carefully taking hold of a water balloon he had prepared earlier one, water and glitter with a bit of food colouring. He soon passed one over to Seth and another to Punk, Roman and Randy, Justin almost guarding the girls with the help of Adam and Sheamus. Randy soon began to silently count down from three with his fingers. Once he had reached zero, each of the four boys took aim at those who were amongst the Jocks hunting for them.
"What the Fuck!" shouted Hunter, as he was doused in cold water with a tinge of purple food colouring in, the glitter already sticking in his hair and clothes as if they had already been there before. He soon heard the shouts of Cena, Miz and Batista as they too were hit and drenched with similar things. The only difference being the colour of the water used, Cena appeared significantly more red than he had before with his white top now a pale red and glittery from the balloon hitting him, just as Miz appeared to be wiping away some blue water and Batista doing the same with the green he had been hit with. Both Swagger and Sandow laughing at the sight until they too were hit with the balloons, Cena getting hit again from those who were throwing them.
"Anyone else get the feeling the Misfits just don't like Cena?" questioned Miz noticing how the teenager who always fought for leadership of the small group had been hit with three different colour water bombs where as the rest only got one each. The pink and yellow showing through far more than the red was now. "Maybe they just want revenge for all the tormenting he's done on them this year alone. I would if I was them" added the man who had proclaimed himself as a future A-lister before walking away, having spotted where the group considered to be rivals were but said nothing, if only to show them he wasn't personally interested in any war with them. Batista on the other hand could only chuckle to himself as he watched Cena once again be hit with several balloons, giving his once white t-shirt a glittery rainbow effect.
"There they are" shouted Swagger as he looked up to see Punk holding another balloon ready to launch it at his next chosen target. Cena and Hunter soon looked up where as Batista and Sandow opted to follow Miz and leave the area. Hunter too soon decided to do the same, almost as if he was silently offering peace or given his permission for those hidden in the wooden box to continue throwing the water bombs they had been armed with. "Just wait until we get up there you little brats" continued the tall blond as he looked around the tree for something to climb up, seeing only the tire swing, Cena too soon began to look for some way to get inside the wooden hideout, only to come up empty handed, the ladder had clearly been pulled up and the closest tree would require some balancing and little weight to get to it.
"We don't come raid your back alley parking lot, so why hunt us?" asked Summer her voice filled with annoyance although the two boys couldn't actually see her. Dean on the other hand looked back to the girl he had called girlfriend for two years, seeing the mischief in her eyes suggesting she was up to something. Justin soon climbed from the tree house without the use of the ladder, catching the water bombs as they were gently dropped down although few burst. Something he wasn't sure if intentional or not due to Layla being the ones who dropped those who burst. The African native teen soon looked around at the much bigger and muscular teenagers, almost fearless as he stood before them, refusing to move and allow them to destroy what they seen as something against their cause. He almost found amusement in it, how two of the so called toughest boys in the school could feel so scared of something that couldn't do anything physically to them.
"Its just a tree house. Made of wood. I promise its not going to hurt you" uttered Justin as he tossed a water bomb over to Jack, watching as the teenager easily dodged it, although he did pick up a twig from the now wet, muddy and slightly glittery leaf covered ground. Almost as he was prepared to bat any future water bombs away. The menacing look almost glowing on his features suggested he was intended to pursue revenge for the many balloons thrown at him, as Cena was also likely to do. No doubt in a way that would humiliate those he chose as his targets in front of as many people as possible. School hours being the best bet.
Back over in England, Saraya entered her daughter's bedroom, the leaflets for the two schools in hand, seeing the teenager hadn't moved an inch and still had her back towards the door and head buried in the cushions. Her favourite white teddy bear in her arms for comfort. The mother of three soon climbed onto her daughters bed, laying down behind her and placing an arm around her as she had once done when Paige was a small child. She felt for her only daughter but also knew it was for the best, as it would allow her and both her sons to follow their dreams of becoming well known professional wrestlers. The red haired woman soon held out the leaflets for her daughter to look at, watching as she slowly took hold of them, scanning over them and taking noticing of the different styles and layouts used for each. Both with bold letters at the top with the name of the school they were advertising and informing the reader about. TNA Academy and WWE High.
"I don't want to go" whispered Paige not bothering to turn around and face her mother, instead she stared straight at the wall in front of her, holding the bear she had named Holly as a child in her arms a little tighter, as if it was going to disappear too. "I don't want to leave my friends behind plus its senior year soon" she continued, the same monotone whispering tone as her mother stroked her silky black hair in an attempt to comfort her from the bombshell both she and her father had dropped. "Can't I stay with uncle Ricky until I finish school then join you?" asked the raven haired teenager as she turned to face the red head behind her, the hope in her eyes suggesting she was serious about the question asked. Saraya on the other hand felt her heart sink upon hearing the question and knew her response wasn't going to help the situation, she could see her daughter felt as if she was being torn away from everything she knew and as if she didn't have control of her own life. Hence why both Ricky and herself had decided to allow their only daughter to choose the school she would be attending. Saraya could only shake her head in response of the teenagers question.
"Its either WWE High or TNA Academy" responded Saraya as she once again picked up the leaflets to give to her daughter to look through properly. "Your choice but we are moving to America" continued the mother of three as she placed as soft kiss on her daughter's temple and left the room, allowing her to sulk for the time being before she would have to be serious about the situation. Paige soon picked up her phone, sending the group of boys who had befriended her and almost protected her in a way a message along with Tammy, Allen and Nicole asking them to meet her in their normal spot at school the following day as she had some major news for them. She knew it would likely be heartbreaking for Allen as he had called her his best friend on several occasions, much like she knew it would be a similar situation for Tammy although she suspected Karris would rejoice about hearing she would be leaving after the school year ended.
The next day at WWE High, Vince McMahon sat in his office planning some trips and the normal senior year trip for the students. He knew the wrestling team were keeping their guard up when it come to the ongoing tournament, especially when TNA Academy were hot on their heels for wins and were showing they were real contenders for winning. He was soon alerted to a new email when a jingle from his computer sounded, the headmaster of the school looked up to see it was from Mrs Knight, the woman he had been in conversation with for the previous months about sending her teenager daughter there for her final year. A small grin come to his lips upon seeing the attached photo of the teenager who could be a potential student, especially when he knew which group would likely befriend her, just as he could already see her as a member of the following years wrestling team.
"Linda" called Vince, his deputy head being his wife, something he had decided when they set the school up decades before hand. The woman he had married so many years prior come in with a smile on her lips, as she always did. No doubt proud of something one of the many students had achieved, she was the mother of the school as the students called her. "Would you show Miss Knight around the school when she comes for a tour next week?" asked Vince turning the screen around to show his wife and deputy head the picture of the teenager in question, he knew she could teach a fair few students wrestling moves, just as his previous emails informed him, the teenager in question was already classed as a professional wrestler under the name Britani Knight.
"Of course" responded Linda, leaving the room after kissing her husband on the cheek. Quickly returning to her own office next door, knowing Vince would send the information on the teenager over so she could create the necessary file and plan for the tour. She like Vince could see the teenage girl was going to throw a spanner in the works for several students, including her own daughter in Stephanie. She also began to make preparations in case the teenager did choose to attend the school, the announcement her husband would make and the small advertisements on the electronic screens around the building. She knew the other schools the raven hair teenager would be visiting would also be preparing for the day, in an attempt to sway her to attend their school instead of another.
With the Misfits, they sat happily in the sports stands watching as Cena circled the area sending furious looks their way every now and again along with a few scowls. His t-shirt still stained with the rainbow colours and glitter although Nikki Bella had turned it into a dress, one she proudly wore around the school, paired with a light jacket and heeled shoes. For the most part the Misfits were content on ignoring the teenager circling around waiting for his opportunity to once again make them suffer in an attempt to satisfy his need for vengeance while over looking they had done as they did in retaliation for his tormenting throughout the year.
"Are you going to keep going around or actually do something?" asked Sheamus as he looked over to the teenager who proclaimed he was the best wrestler in the school, something that had ticked off several senior year students and teachers. Cena soon stopped in his tracks a little unsure as he had assumed none of them were paying attention to what he was doing, yet they had proven otherwise or at least the Irish native had. He soon noticed Stephanie storming his way, shortly followed by the line of Popular Girls and scattered Jocks, Stephanie looking as if she was in a rush as she stormed towards him and the misfits as she looked over to them while trying to avoid the heel of her sandals sinking into the grass of the pitch.
"We have to be on our best behaviour next month" called Stephanie making sure her friends could hear her and that her voice echoed so the group at the bleachers could hear her too. "Dad said there is a potential new student coming to visit and look around" continued the high class teenager as she turned on her heels and walked away, all but dragging Cena along by the collar so he couldn't cause any more trouble with those who sat talking amongst themselves on the bleachers. Although she didn't see eye to eye with them and felt as if there was a rivalry there, she also knew they were just as important to the school as other groups were. Plus she wouldn't admit it aloud but she did kind of envy them for the popularity they had with the younger years and their almost fearless group persona.
"Wonder what this one will be like?" questioned Roman to no one in-particular, his amusement only grew when he realised the previous two transfer students had been been blond females. Emma and Summer. "Maybe this one will carry on the trend and be a blond female" continued the Samoan as he looked around seeing the way the others looked at him in a questioning way, although Justin appeared to have realised what he was referring to, as evident by his grin and the chuckle to escape him. Dean soon looked to Emma walking past with Sami and Adrian then to his own girlfriend, a smile coming to his lips as he let the sigh escape him, he wondered why so many of the transfers were girls although he didn't mind all that much as he liked the idea of them being serious about the sport as so many guys were. To him it was a nice change and breath of fresh air.
"Doesn't matter, male or female. They'll be an individual all we can do is make the transition a little better, be the helping hand if they need it" responded Layla, her English ascent once again making itself known to those around her. Although she wondered like everyone else did, she also knew the likelihood of them actually getting to see the mysterious student on the day they come to visit would be low. If they chose to attend the school then they would meet them when they returned following the summer holidays. "Plus the odds of us actually seeing this person on the tour day is likely to be zilch. Just after hope whomever it is chooses to attend here instead of one of the other schools" continued the teenager, showing she was mature for her age, yet her smile suggested she could still have fun when she wanted to.
Over in England, Paige looked at the approaching school gates with dread. The announcement her parents had told her and her brothers the night before playing on repeat in her mind. She wondered what those she called friends react like when she told them the big news. Would they think she was joking? Would they take it seriously? She hoped they would understand she didn't have a choice in the matter, much like she knew her mum had likely informed the school she wouldn't be returning for senior year. Paige smiled sadly as she walked through the black peeling painted gates, the hood of her jacket up despite it being a sunny day and her earphones into help drown out the gossip and uninteresting conversations about make up and the latest boy band crushes.
"Hey P" called Lenny as he seen her walking towards them, his voice filled with concern on what she had to tell them, although he could see whatever it was, was bothering her. Despite her being a few feet away. Hissy soon jogged over to her when the raven haired teenager suddenly stopped, the tears in her eyes worrying him as the last time he had seen her like this was when Chloe made her secrets public knowledge. The blond soon linked arms with her, acting like a gentlemen he rarely showed as he attempted to cheer her up with jokes and other silly antics on the short walk to the group. Although she noticed only the group of senior boys were there, Allen, Tammy and Nicole yet to arrive at the school.
"Don't tell me your sad because we're leaving this year" commented Michael Hancox as he looked over to raven haired girl he had known for so long, the memory of when Aiden first introduced them to her coming to mind. He had know her since junior school and had often attended the classes her parents ran as all of them had gone on to do. Yet none of them seen a future with such a sport although they enjoyed going to the classes and shows put on by the teenagers family. Like the others he spotted within seconds something was bothering her, the seriousness of the situation taking over as he looked to the other around, noticing Danny look on concerned as he seen the younger teenage girl as a sister rather than a friend.
"I will be too" mumbled Paige as she moved some of her raven locks from her face, seeing the confusion on the features of those who surrounded her. "Mum and Dad said we'll be moving to Florida during the holidays. I'll be attending another school for senior year" explained the teenager, revealing what was bothering her and what she had meant by her previous remark. "One of these two" she added retrieving the leaflets her mum had given her the night before from her school bag, seeing the way the group of boys looked at them and then to her, yet it wasn't in sadness as at least one of them had noticed what one of the schools was.
"P. You do realise these are schools that specialise in wrestling right?" asked Lenny, as he looked closely at the WWE High one, quickly pulling out his phone to put a search in for the school. He knew her parents would do what was best for her, just as he knew how much she wanted to become a WWE Superstar. "WWE High is in the top ten best wrestling schools in the world" continued the dark haired teenager as he showed the raven haired girl the list of schools he found and where one of the schools her parents had chosen resided on the list. He wondered which one she would pick and how she was going to break the news to the remaining three, something he figured he would find out soon considering the trio were just walking around the corner from the staff car park.
"We're throwing you a going away party" casually spoke Danny as he looked from the leaflet to WWE High, seeing the confusion of Allen when the missing three finally reached the group. Tammy and Nicole on the other hand looked at each other with the same unmoved smile, clearly excited to have each other back despite the bitterness that was once between them. "Give you the send off you deserved, especially if we're not going to get to see you as often as we want to. Although we will be stalking your social media to keep up to date on what's going on" commented Danny as he continued on as if the trio of Allen, Tammy and Nicole knew what he was referring to, almost as if he was ignoring Nicole and Tammy's confused look.
"Wait what's going on?" asked Nicole as she watched Allen be greeted by the group of boys as if he was a brother return to them from a long trip away. The bro hugs and cheeky comments making feel as if they were family rather than a group of friends. Paige in the middle as if she was a precious jewel they were protecting. Tammy looked over to Lenny and Hissy silently wishing one of them would answer the question. Although she could see something was bothering Paige too, her smile not quite reaching her eyes as it would normally do and wasn't lighting up the day of one of them around her. Instead it appeared as if the raven haired teenager was pretending to be happy, like she was silently suffering but didn't want to tell anyone else about it.
"Our Warrior Princess is leaving at the end of the year" responded Jordan C, answering the question asked, the sadness in his tone suggesting he wasn't playing a prank on them. Just as Paige nodding to confirm only brought the reality of it to the trio. Nicole and Tammy once again looked at each other, knowing if Karris found out she would all but celebrate the teenager she seen as her mortal enemy was leaving and not likely to be coming back. Celebrating that she had finally won although unlikely to realise the raven haired girl was likely to have won considering she would have finally escaped the endless torment.
"Mum and dad told us last night. Its what they had been hiding" whispered Paige as it hit her, she was unlikely to see those around her in a person again for a long time. She hoped if she was ever lucky enough to be reunited with them, they would have grown as people and finally found who they truly were, as well as found their dreams. "Promise we'll all stay in contact" she spoke, the emotions she felt clear to see in her eyes, as it dawned on the Allen and Tammy they wouldn't just be losing the group of boys when summer came around but Paige too. Nicole on the other hand appeared unsure how to feel, for so long she had been at odds with the raven haired girl, is she was told the same news last year she would have rejoiced and celebrated, now she felt unsure, sad even.
"We'll be stalking your social media and sending you fan mail" replied Hissy with a cheeky grin, watching as a small smile appeared on Paige's lips and a chuckle escaped her. He quickly changed the conversation when Karris rounded the corner, Chloe nowhere in sight neither was any of the boys who had once followed her every step. Instead she appeared as if she was looking for what was now lost to her. She already knew there was a high chance she would be alone throughout the remaining few months of the school year.
"Nicole" called Karris when she spotted the now confident teenager, the same one who used to be her loyal and almost mindless slave. The purple haired teen only turning her head to face the controlling and sadistic blond, an unamused expression placed firmly on her features shortly replaced with a disinterested one. "We have work to do. You don't belong with those losers" continued the bleach blond as she stormed over to the group, a little fearful upon noticing one of the senior year boys begin to move between her and the teenager she was making a b-line for. "Just come back already. We have a lot of work to be getting on with" finished the bleach blond when she finally realised the older teenager wasn't going to move nor was she going to get past him.
"We have nothing to do" replied Nicole as she turned her entire body to look at the girl she had been a slave to since they became friends. "I'm done being your puppet, I'm done with this stupid friendship, I'm done denying who I am to make you happy and most of all. I'm done with you" she continued as she waved goodbye at the end and turned back around to face those around her, yet still unable to shake the feeling of sadness that hit her when she seen the raven haired girl, almost like it would be the last time she would ever see her again. Yet she knew they still had a few months before the end of school and Paige was taken away from them along with the group of protective yet humorous boys.
A/N – Hey Pumpkin's sorry for my absence on here as of late. Started a new job and was trying to adjust to it, as well as trying to get over my writers block. With luck will be back to normal soon. Thank you for baring with me.
