Chapter 35: A Turn Around
It was the SmackDown after Extreme Rules and everyone was in the locker room. Angel's eyes were red and puffy. She had cried a lot in the last week. Not having her Dad and Lea around was harder on her then she thought it would be and if it wasn't for the fact that they called every day, it would have been more difficult. At the same time, she felt satisfied with what had happened at Extreme Rules. She had put Jennifer through hell and made her pay for what she had done to Kristy. She still thought that if Jennifer had really wanted revenge on Taker, she would have gone after her, not Kristy.
Angel sighed and put on her hooded overcoat. She was due to head to the ring for a promo. Out in the arena, it was plunged into darkness and a bell tolled. The Rest In Peace theme played and blue light and fog filled the arena. The fans were screaming. Angel smiled to herself. She walked to the ring slowly, donning a stoic expression.
"Extreme Rules was an insane night. We saw a side of the Dead Girl that we have never seen. And I hope we never see it again." Cole said.
"Jennifer deserved it. She got Barrett to hurt Angel's best friend and she's put Angel through hell for years." Booker said.
Josh didn't say anything. They watched as Angel walked up the ring steps and brought the lights back up. She stepped through the ropes and asked for a microphone.
"At Extreme Rules...I made Jennifer pay for getting that slime ball Wade Barrett to impregnate my best friend! I even drove her through the announce table to enforce the win. And if you missed it...well, roll the footage." Angel said.
The titan tron rolled the footage. Angel was smiling the whole time. She had enjoyed it simply because she had paid Jen back for every bit of hell she had ever been put through at Jen's hands. When the footage ended, Angel was smirking.
"Now that Jennifer is out of my way, it's time for me to defend my title at Over The Limit. I know for a fact that Beth Phoenix wants a rematch for the title, so I would be glad to give her the rematch, but I also want to warn her...this title is not leaving my waist willingly." Angel said.
She walked out of the ring and headed back to the backstage area. She was thinking about her Dad, Lea and Kristy and didn't look where she was going. She smacked into Randy Orton and Sara in the hallway.
"Oh, um...sorry, Randy." Angel said.
"Lots on your mind?" Randy asked.
"Yeah. Missing my Daddy and Lea. And worried about Kristy. She's in Calgary and I'm stuck here." Angel said.
"Kristy will be alright, Angel. You trust the Harts right?" Sara said.
"Some of them. It's the ones I don't trust that I'm worried about." Angel said.
"I can't say I blame you, but Martha will do what she can to protect her." Randy said.
Angel nodded. She said goodbye to Randy and Sara and wished them good luck. Then she left them and headed back to the locker room. She got there just in time to see Wade Barrett in the ring. It was then that she realized that David, Bret, Owen and the rest of the Harts were missing from the locker room. She smirked. David, Davey and Tyson were going first followed by Owen and Bret and then John. Then Barrett would have the inferno match with Kane next week.
She watched and cheered, making Kane laugh. Angel was acting like a fan rather then a Diva. She was yelling at the monitor too. It went on for awhile and when everyone came back, she hugged them all and congratulated them. She got up and flung her arms around David and kissed him. Then he walked with her to the curtain. Davey was smiling.
"What?" Kane asked.
"This is the first time they've actually really had a chance to interact with each other. David is scared that Taker is going to kill him if he does the wrong thing and Angel doesn't want to do anything that's going to jeopardize her friendship with Kristine. Without them around, they're getting a chance to be together." Davey said.
"You can't blame them. I mean, Angel values Kristy's friendship above anything else. And you know how Taker is when it comes to her. Of course David would be a little scared." Bret said.
"That's not my brother's fault. It's because of everything that Angel has been through." Kane said.
Everyone nodded. They knew that Taker's over protectiveness of not just Angel, but Lea as well, stemmed from Angel's abusive past and the fact that he couldn't be there to protect her when she was being hurt and the only reason that he allowed her to wrestle was because it was a relatively safe place and he could keep an eye on her and make sure she stayed safe.
They all sat down and watched the match. Angel was teaming with Rey Mysterio. Angel was honoured to be teaming with him. He was the biggest underdog in the WWE. He always faced opponents that were a lot bigger then he was. He had even had a few matches with her father and they were some of Angel's favourite Undertaker matches. Angel watched with a smile as Rey did his entrance and gave his cover mask to a lucky fan. Rey stood on the rope and crossed himself. He hopped down just as a bell tolled and the lights went out. A bell tolled and once again the arena was plunged into darkness and Angel came out.
She walked down the ramp and up the steps. She raised her arms, bringing the lights back up. She stepped through the ropes and undid her overcoat. She threw the hood back as lightning crashed overhead. Then she handed her title to the time keeper. Rey and Angel's opponents were revealed to be Alberto Del Rio and Michelle McCool. Angel rolled her eyes. God, it's just one problem after another. First Jen, now her. Angel thought. Someone always seemed to have bad blood with Angel in the WWE. She wondered if it was because she was the Undertaker's daughter, but she hoped not. Rey had been having problems with Del Rio. Because he was rich, he thought he was better then Rey and had even taken to calling him "a little chiuwawa".
Rey and Del Rio started off the match. Del Rio was aggressive, but Rey did his best and eventually wound up fighting his way out of the predicament. He countered and hit a DDT. Then he walked over to Angel and tagged her in. Del Rio tagged in Michelle. Angel rolled her eyes, but she was shocked when Michelle went all out on her. She wasn't even giving Angel chances to counter attack. She eventually got Angel down.
"The Dead Girl seems surprised by Michelle's onslaught." Josh said.
"Yeah, but now Michelle's wasting valuable time by taunting her." Booker said.
That was indeed what was happening. Michelle was knelt down next to Angel, taunting her. Suddenly, Angel reached up and grabbed Michelle by the throat. She stood up and went for the chokeslam. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Del Rio coming at her, so she dropped Michelle and clotheslined Del Rio. It almost took his head off.
Michelle took advantage of the distraction and locked Angel in the Faithbreaker. Angel wiggled her way out it and scooped Michelle up for the Tombstone Pile driver. Then she dropped her on her head and pinned her for the three count. Rey climbed into the ring and the referee raised both their hands. Then Angel shook hands with Rey and the two hugged each other. Then Angel took her title and headed back to the back. David was waiting for her there. He kissed her.
Then they headed back to the locker room to watch Randy Orton take on R-Truth. They sat down and watched as Randy beat R-Truth. Just as the match was finishing up, someone's Cell Phone rang. Everyone reacted, trying to figure out who's it was. It was Owen's that had gone off. Everyone listened to his tone. It went from happy to worried in a few minutes. Then he seemed relieved. When he hung up, he didn't look happy.
"What's the matter, Owen? Was that Martha? Is Kristy alright?" Angel asked.
"That was Martha. Kristy's only been home for about a week and a half and Martha has to send her to your Dad's, Angel." Owen said.
"What happened?" David and Angel asked at the same time.
"You name it, it happened. Martha took Kristy to a doctors appointment and the rest of them showed up there. They started yelling at Kristy. Telling her to abort the baby and everything. Kristy fought tooth and nail. She even said that the only family she had left was all of us, Martha, Julie, and the kids. After that, Martha got worried that something was going to happen so she sent Kristy to your Dad. Taker said it was fine. She would be safe there and he'd watch her." Owen said.
"God damn it!" Angel snapped, making the lights flash.
"Take it easy, Little Angel. Nothing actually happened to her." Kane said.
"It doesn't matter! She could have been hurt! And so could the baby! Kristy doesn't want anything to happen to that baby!" Angel said.
"It's alright, Angel. Just calm down. Martha did the right thing. Kristy is safe and so is the baby. Your Dad's not going to let anything happen to either one." Davey said.
"Still, I'm worried about her. This stress can't be good for her." Owen said.
Angel nodded. She pulled out her cell phone and called down to Houston. She felt worried and scared. When the line connected, a smile crossed Angel's face. Her Dad had answered.
"Hi, baby girl." Taker said.
"Hi, Daddy. Martha just called. Is Kristy alright?" Angel asked.
"She's...resting right now. And she's more then a little scared. She...asked me when you're coming back." Taker said.
"Me? How come?" Angel asked.
"She's really spooked. I think they did something more then what Martha told you guys." Taker said.
"OK. I know she's resting, but put her on the phone." Angel said.
"I'll try." Taker said.
Angel waited. It seemed to take a long time before Kristysaid hello and when she did, she was quiet and evidentally very afraid of who was on the phone for her.
"Krissy, it's just me. It's Ang. It's alright. I know you're spooked and you want me to come back, but I can't just yet." Angel said.
"Hey...Ang...I know...I'll be alright..." Kristy said.
"Look, you call me any time. Day, night, whatever. You need to talk, you call." Angel said.
"Ang..." Kristy said.
"Don't fight me on this, alright? If I can't be there physically I'm going to be a phone call away." Angel said.
"Ang..." Kristy said again.
"Kristy...did something else happen?" Angel asked.
"Tell...John...I'm sorry..." Kristy said.
"Kristy...he isn't talking to any of us. But if I can tell him I will. Now, what has you spooked? If something else happened that you didn't tell Martha, then you've gotta tell me." Angel said.
"My Mom...she threatened to kill the baby." Kristy said.
"Oh, god. Look, Kristy. You have to tell my Dad. He's worried. And so are the rest of us." Angel said.
"I...can't..." Kristy whispered.
"Then put him back on the phone so I can." Angel said.
"You...would do that?" Kristy asked.
"I'd rather have him blow up and spook me, then blow up and scare you half to death...again..." Angel said.
"OK. And Ang...thanks...for being such a good friend." Kristy said.
"It's what I do, girl." Angel said.
Kristy laughed for the first time and then said goodbye. Then she must have handed the phone back to Taker and left the room because Angel heard a door close in the background.
"Daddy...it was Diana. Diana threatened to kill the baby. That's why she's so spooked. She was too scared to tell Martha about it." Angel said.
"Oh dear God." Taker said.
"Daddy...please don't let anything happen." Angel said.
"I won't." Taker said.
"Alright. I have to let you go. There's a room full of people staring at me waiting for news. I'll talk to you later, Daddy." Angel said.
"Alright, baby girl. I love you. And I'm proud of you. And I'll see you soon." Taker said.
"I love you too, Daddy. Give Lea a hug and a kiss for me and tell her I love her. Bye." Angel said.
"Will do, baby girl. Bye." Taker said.
Angel sighed and hung up her phone. She put it away. She went to speak, but Owen cut her off before she could get a word out. She hadn't seen him look this upset before.
"Did I hear you right? Diana threatened to kill the baby?!" he asked.
"Yeah, Owen you heard me right." Angel said.
"Are you OK, sweetheart?" David asked.
"No. I'm not. I want to do one of two things...get on a plane and go to Calgary and kill Kristy's Mom. Or get on a plane, go home and be there for my best friend like I should be!" Angel said.
"Well, the first one isn't an option, Angel." Bret said.
"Neither is the second one. I'm stuck here for another few weeks. I never thought I would feel like I'm stuck on the road." Angel said.
"I bet Kristy never thought she'd be stuck at home." Davey said.
"It should have been me! Jennifer wanted revenge on my Daddy, not you, Davey. Why didn't she sick Barrett on me?" Angel whispered.
"Because your Daddy loves Kristy just as much as he does you and Lea and Jen knows it. Besides, Barrett is the type that wants to hurt anyone and everyone." Owen said.
"Barrett knew he'd get me too, Angel. He's jealous because I'm more loved in England then he is." Davey said.
"Well, I wonder why! My point is that the roles should be flipped. I should be the one at home! Kristy should be here. At least she'd feel better...and I don't mind being at home so much." Angel said.
"True. But you would not only have your Dad and Lea with you. David would be there too." Kane said.
"Yeah and I wouldn't act like a jerk the way Cena is." David said.
"Speaking of Cena, I need to go find him. Kristy wants me to tell him she's sorry." Angel said.
"Sorry? For what?" Davey asked.
"She didn't say. She just asked me to tell him she's sorry." Angel said.
"You can look for him later, Little Angel." Kane said.
"It's probably because of the whole Eve thing. Cena has been acting differently since Kristy broke up with him." Davey said.
"I've got to go find him." Angel said.
Before anyone could stop her, she stood up and left the locker room. She walked around for a good hour or so. She rounded the corner into the parking lot and stopped dead in her tracks. She saw John hugging AJ. She was about to blow up and yell at him when she realized that AJ was upset. She sighed, thinking that she had almost lost her temper for no reason. She wondered if she was feeling the stress of being on the road. As soon as AJ saw Angel, she let go of John.
"John...could I have a word with you?" Angel asked.
"What's the matter?" John asked.
"Kristy...asked me to...she asked me to tell you...well, I talked to her earlier and she said "Tell John I'm sorry". So I'm doing what she asked." Angel said.
"She said that?" John asked.
"Yeah. She did. She misses you. Even though she says she doesn't, I know she does." Angel said.
"I miss her too. A lot." John said.
"Well, fix it. She's with my Dad in Houston." Angel said.
"Did something happen?" John asked.
Angel sighed. She explained about what had happened in Calgary when Martha had taken her to the doctor's. She hesitated for a long time before she told him about Diana's threat. Angel watched as John's expression changed rapidly. When she finished, he was pale.
"I...Angel, I think I'm going to need your help. I want to fix things with her, but I don't want to do it if it's going to cause her stress. She doesn't need it and neither does the baby." John said.
"I think I could do that. Do you think we could stop fighting?" Angel asked.
"About that...you're right. I shouldn't have blamed you for what happened. I...saw the security footage from that night. Sorry I didn't believe you." John said.
"There was a camera in the hallway?" Angel asked.
"Yep. And everything that happened before Barrett dragged Kristy off got recorded." John said.
"Well, then...apology accepted." Angel told him.
"Good. Because I hated fighting with my kid sister." John said.
Angel smiled. John told AJ that he had to go and left with her. They went back to the locker room. Everyone was shocked when Angel walked in with John. Then they all looked angry. Angel sighed and spoke up before the yelling could start.
"Before you all jump all over him, he wants to fix things with Kristy. And he already said sorry to me." Angel said.
"Yeah. And I want to say sorry to everyone." John said.
"Cena, if you ever hurt Angel or Kristy again I will beat you to within an inch of your life. And I probably won't be alone." David said.
"You're forgiven. Just fix things with Kristy, John." Bret said.
John nodded. Angel sighed in relief. Then they headed back to the hotel. Angel left a message for Kristy to call her. Then she got ready and headed off to bed. Things were looking up.
Alright, that's it for this chapter of DoD. It's coming to an end Wahhh! Alright, I will see you all later. Please Read/Review
