Self Sacrifice

The Hardy Boyz' match had been on for less then a minute before Brock Lesnar was beating the shit out of them once again. Unfortunately for Matt and Jeff the match was scheduled and Brock and his Tag Team partner, Raven were making sure Matt and Jeff weren't going to win. Lita and Akasha watched nervously from backstage. Lita jumped with every harsh bump Matt and Jeff took. Each time they got the wind knocked out of them Akasha's anger grew. An unfair match up for sure and she wasn't going to be back stage for much longer if things kept up. She watched Jeff, literally flung across the ring, smashing through the ropes and slamming into the base of the ramp. Akasha snapped, grabbed the steel chair next to her and sprinted towards the ring. "Akasha!" Lita shouted as she ran off, "Ah, god damn it 'Kasha! Wait up!" Lita shouted as she grabbed her own chair and ran after her.

Lita caught up to Akasha just before she burst through the curtain. The crowd didn't see the two women straight away but once they did, every single one was on their feet. Akasha was slightly in front of Lita, chair in hand and ready to smack someone in the head. Raven was after Jeff who was almost unconscious at the bottom of the ramp. Akasha leapt over Jeff, smacking Raven right between the eyes with the chair. He stumbled back and hit the apron before toppling to the ground in pain. Akasha smacked it into him again and again, each time the crowd cheering louder and louder. None of them knew she wasn't supposed to be out there, none would have cared. Lita ran to the other side of Raven and both began to hit him hard with chairs and feet. King and J.R were astonished, "I have never seen Lita snap like this before!" J.R shouted to King, "Well I guess Brock pulled both Diva's last nerve for picking on people smaller then him." Matt tried to stop the enraged Brock but it was no use, he was flung aside and Brock made it to the edge of the ring where he reached out and reefed Akasha up by her hair. A scream of shock escaped her lips and Lita quickly jumped up on the apron and tried to hit Brock with the chair but he just pushed her hard with one hand and she smashed into the stairs. Matt scrambled towards her as Brock turned Akasha to face him, "Go join your man!!!" Brock shouted before he threw Akasha, still by her hair onto Jeff who was beginning to get up. He tried to catch her but had no strength. Both smashed to the ramp, Akasha knocked her head on the concrete and knocked herself out.

Ref's came down the ramp, almost half a dozen and ran towards the injured, the only one standing was Brock and Matt. Matt pulled Lita up and the crowd cheered for her efforts but Akasha lay knocked out, laid across the stunned Jeff who was gently beginning to move her. The Ref's debated whether they should call for a stretcher as they tried to make Akasha come to, pulling her off Jeff completely. Brock headed up the ramp, laughing at the scene he had made. A couple of Ref's helped Raven up and escorted him up the ramp. Lita and Matt went over to see Akasha, laying limp on the hard floor, blood dripping from the side of her head, dull in dark hair until it dripped to the floor, "She hit the concrete hard." The Ref said to another as the stretcher was called to the scene. "Akasha, come on girl." Lita said, fear in her voice. Jeff leaned over her, hair stuck to his face, more fear across it then hair, "Akasha. Come on, open your eyes." He said to her. Everyone paused as Akasha's eyes fluttered and slowly they opened. The camera had been right in on it and the crowd was showing much appreciation, "You're ok!" Lita said, relief now in her voice. Matt still held Lita up and his smile showed his own relief, "Did you guys win?" Akasha asked, rather groggy to Jeff's face over her, "No, but nobody did." He said with a slight laugh at her first question after regaining consciousness, "Good." She mumbled, anger in her voice. EMP's came down the ramp and placed a stretcher next to her, "I'm fine." She said, trying to get up. "Please ma'am." An EMP said, grabbing her arm to help her onto the stretcher, "No!" She shouted to the man, "It's ok, I'll help her." Jeff said to the man before taking Akasha's arm and helping her to her feet. "She's ok." J.R exhaled, clearly astounded with the actions from the match, "That was a hell of a hit she took for those reckless Hardy Boyz." King muttered to his partner in reply.

"You should go to the hospital, you could have a concussion." Jeff said as he and Akasha sat in the hallway backstage, "I'll see how it plays out." She replied, her head between her knees, "At least let the EMP's clean up your head." He said desperately. Akasha lifted her head up, confusion splashed across her face along with pain. Jeff reached out and pressed his fingers down on her scalp. She hissed out in pain, "It looks pretty bad." He told her as he lifted his fingers away, showing her the blood on them, "Ok." She mumbled sliding herself up the wall to stand. Jeff got up slowly as well, he too had been knocked stupid earlier. The two walked to the EMP's near by and they told Akasha she would need staples to close the wound. She was taken to the hospital, under protest and Jeff went to tell Matt and Lita.
