Chapter 5: Announcement and Dates.
It had been a few weeks since the horrifying incidents, but Destiny hadn't told anyone about what happened. She wasn't sure why, but she didn't want to. Steph was making her return that night. Although the fans hated her on- screen character, they all hoped she was okay. It was time for Monday night Raw, and the show had just started. Vince walked down to the Ring to introduce Stephanie.
"I know everyone heard about the horrible accident that happened a few weeks ago to my daughter Stephanie, and I am happy to say that she survived, but unfortunately, she was paralysed. I would like everyone to please help me welcome back Stephanie." Vince said to the crowd. Everyone gave her a standing ovation as she was wheeled out onto the ramp. She was given a mic to talk to the crowd with.
"First of all, I want to thank everyone for being so supportive of my and for all of the get well soon cards everyone sent to me in the hospital. Next I would like to say, is because of the accident, I have to give up my Women's Championship. I have decided to have a tournament to see who will get it. The competitors will be announced later on tonight. Again, thank you everyone!" She said to the crowd, and then left.

Later that night all of the Divas were in a meeting to see who would be involved in the Women's Championship tournament, and who would win it.
"Okay, first of all, I want everyone to know how hard it was to pick only 8 of you to compete in this tourney, and even harder to pick the winner." Steph told them. "I'll star by telling you the competitors first, then I'll tell you the winners. Trish, Lita, Molly, Deja, Destiny, Jazz, Torrie, and Stacy, you will all be in the tournament, and now I will announce the winner." She said.
Lita couldn't wait, she knew she was going to win it. She had waited so long for her chance at the title, and now she would finally get it.
Stephanie continued with her announcement. "And the winner will be…Destiny." She announced. Lita could not believe what she was hearing. Everyone went to congratulate Destiny. Lita could feel tears forming in her eyes. "But… this isn't fair… it's supposed to be me…" she said to no one in particular. Molly overheard her, and went to comfort her friend, only to be pushed aside when Lita ran from the room. Destiny didn't pay any attention to what was happening. She was too happy.

Word had gotten around the locker room about Destiny winning the tournament, so everywhere she went, people congratulated her. She was on her way to her locker room to get ready for her match against Torrie, when Edge walked up to her.
"Hey Des, I heard about he tourney. Congrats! It should be a really sweet match!" he said to her.
"Thanks Edge, that's nice of you to say. So, you think it's going to reek of awesomeness?" she said laughing.
"Oh yeah, definitely!" he replied laughing with her. "I was wondering if you maybe wanted to go get something to eat with me sometime?" he asked her.
"I would like that." She replied. "I have to go get ready for my match now. I'll see you later okay," she told him.
"That would definitely be alright." He replied, checking her out as she walked away.

Destiny finished getting ready and still had some time to spare before her match started, so she decided to go see Steph. She knocked on her door, and walked in. She saw Stephanie sitting in the corner, so she went over to her.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" She asked her friend.
"I'm fine. I'm just trying to figure out what happened that night. Its just so confusing." She replied. "Anyway, how do you feel about the tournament?" she asked.
"I am so excited!" she replied. "Oh, guess what?" she asked, but before her friend could answer, she said "Edge just asked me out on a date. How cool is that?"
"What? Edge asked you out? You didn't say yes, did you?" Steph asked.
"What do you mean? Of course I said yes. Why wouldn't I say yes?" Destiny answered.
"Well, he's Lita's boyfriend. Or at least was her boyfriend until a couple of weeks ago when he dumped her. After 2 years too, can you believe it?" Steph replied.
"OMG. She's going to think he dumped her for me. It's bad enough she obviously hates me, this definitely should make the situation worse. What should I do?" Des asked.
"I don't know, he is VERY cute…" Steph replied with a smile.
