"Guess who's......back." I looked around the empty Diva's locker room
and sighed. "Well, this isn't what I expected!" I placed my gear next to
Stacy's on the bench and left for one of the guy's locker rooms.
"I'm......what the hell!?" I exclaimed as I walked out of the locker room and towards the ring. That to was empty. There was no one in the arena, no one at all!
"Hey babes, what's up?" Jeff asked answering his cell phone.
"Well, I'm at the arena and I know I'm not in the wrong place cause everyone's stuff is here, but the owners of that stuff aren't!" I said.
"No one? Did you go down to the ring?"
"Yeah, I'm there now," I answered sitting in the middle of the ring.
"Let me guess, you're sitting inside the ring. Right in the middle with your knees brought up so you can rest your chin on them, right?" he guessed. I looked down at myself and smiled.
"No, what would make you think that?!" I said.
"Because I know you. So I know that that was a lie and you really are sitting like that," he laughed.
"Alright, so maybe I am! But what I wanna know is where is everyone?"
"Sorry, can't answer that. Have you called anyone?" Jeff asked.
"I called Trish before I got off the plane. I had to leave a voice mail."
"Maybe she hasn't heard it yet."
"But that doesn't tell me why there's no one around! Like there aren't even any tech people. No security guards. No nothing! I didn't even need to have anyone check my pass!"
"Just go wait in one of the locker rooms. I'm sure they'll show up sooner or later."
"I guess you're right. I'm goin," I laughed as I climbed out of the ring.
"How was the flight?"
"It was a little weird being on it by myself. No one to travel with. I've always been with either you, Shane, or Matt. This is bizarre!"
"I'm sure it was. I wish I could have gone. Just one more week and I'll be back," Jeff said happily.
"I know, but until then, I'll be kicking Amy's ass so that we can team up and get both of them!" I sat on the bench next to my stuff and crossed my legs.
"I gotta go. Dad wants me to go down to Matt's house to make sure that it's goin okay."
"Okay. Have fun."
"Hey, I'm sure that they'll show up soon. Don't worry."
"I love you Jeff."
"I love you too babe."
"Where the hell is everyone?!" I exclaimed to myself as I slipped my Disturbed cd into the boom box. An hour later and onto my Rob Zombie cd, there was still no one around.
"Casey?! Oh my God! You're back?!" Trish exclaimed running up to give me a hug.
"Yeah, I called and told you that I was coming in today. Where was everyone?"
"We all got here really early this morning then went to the theme park down the road. You should have been there. Andrew got sick on the roller coaster! He got such a ribbing from Sean," she laughed as Stacy and Victoria walked in.
"Casey! What are you doin back?" Stacy asked hugging me tightly.
"I'm cleared to wrestle tonite. I'm challenging Amy tonite."
"Who's challenging me?" She looked at me with her eyes wide and hugged me tightly. "I didn't know you were coming back today!"
"Yeah, neither did anyone else!" I said as we broke apart. "I would have thought you would have known, I mean, I am challenging you tonite."
"You are?! Are you sure Vince knows you're back tonite?" Amy asked.
"Well, with the way this nite is goin I wouldn't be surprised if he had forgotten," I said with a half-hearted chuckle. "Where's that lovely boyfriend of mine?"
"Shane's probably down at the ring goin over some stuff with some of the guys," Victoria answered.
"Thanks, guess I'll see ya'll later!" I said walking out of the room and goin towards the ring.
"Casey?!" Paul exclaimed sliding out of the ring.
"Hey," I said as he picked me up in his arms.
"What are you doin back here?" he asked.
"I'm starting to think that ya'll have forgotten about me," I said sadly.
"How could we forget about you?!" Rob asked taking his turn in the hug line.
"I don't know. You guys tell me!" I said rolling my eyes. "Hey Sean, I heard you were making fun of Andrew. Well done."
"Thanks kid. Welcome back. Things haven't been the same without you," he said lowering me down to the floor from his hug.
"Yeah, I'm sure," I said sarcastically.
"Case?! Angel! What are you doing here?" Shane exclaimed happily picking me up in his arms.
"You know what I'm doing here. I told you a week ago that I was gonna be here tonite! What the hell is wrong with ya'll? It's like you really forgot that I was even comin back!" I exclaimed.
"No baby. We didn't forget about you. I guess we just got used to you bein gone that you bein back tonite comes as a shock to us. How are you feeling?" Shane asked.
"I'm feeling fine. But I'm gonna go get ready for the show tonite. I'll see you later," I said with an aggravated tone.
"Oh man, she's pissed at you!" Andrew said.
"I know. I can't believe I forgot she was comin back tonite!" Shane replied.
"Don't let her know you forgot otherwise you'll be goin without IT for quite sometime there buddy," Andrew said hitting Shane's shoulder playfully before walking away.
When I got back to the locker room I pretty much ignored everyone. They all figured I was getting into my "zone", but I was just really pissed at everyone. No one even commented on my hair! I changed quickly into my newly designed baggy jeans and t-shirt. The shirt had Angel cut out on the back and was splattered with glow in the dark paint. The jeans were splattered in black, blue, purple, green, and silver paint with the back pockets cut off. I pulled on a painted bandana and put glitter all over my face. I pulled on my boots, grabbed my walkman and cds, and went to find a little corner in the hall to get away from it all. A half-hour into the show and I was called out to go to the ring to challenge Lita. "Halo" started and my pyro went off causing the arena to quake with cheering from the fans. I was back, I was home. I walked down the ramp waving to the people and flipped into the ring doin my normal entrance.
"Well....I'm bbbbaaaaaaaaaacccccckkkkkk!" I said with a laugh. "That's right. I'm all healed up. True my shoulder is still sore, but that's to be expected from it being dislocated. But I'll live. I'll move on. But I'm here by myself tonite. My partner, my best friend, my BOY friend, is still at home. He's still trying to recover. He hopes to be back next Monday nite. I hope he comes back next Monday nite. Now, I don't remember much from our match at Wrestlemania. All I know is what I've watched on RAW. And I know that me and my partner were ambushed by our once best friends, Matt and Lita. I don't know why they did what they did and frankly, I don't care. But tonite, I plan on getting some revenge for what happened. I'm not stupid enough to take on both Matt and Lita by myself. But I am goin to challenge Lita to a match, tonite, right here on RAW. So, Lita, come on out here and tell me if you except!"
"Welcome back Angel! It's so good to see you all healed up!" Lita said walking onto the stage. "And I'm sorry that Jeff isn't back. But did I hear you right? Did you say that he's your boyfriend?"
"I don't see what that has to do with anything. But yes, I did say that."
"Well, congrats! I knew it would happen sooner or later. And just to let you know, your ex, the Hurricane, is still in love with you! Bet you didn't know that, did you?!"
"No, but that has nothing to do with anything!"
"Well, you see, it does. He's my friend. He's a very good friend. And you, Angel, hurt him. You hurt him so badly. He still defends you! But I'm going to give you something he should have done months ago. AN ASS KICKING!! I accept your challenge. Not because I want to wrestle you, but because I want to make your life a living hell by sending you back home with more injuries for what you did to my best friend! I'll see you later tonite, Angel!" She threw down the mic and walked away.
"Yeah, welcome back Angel," I said to myself before climbing out of the ring and retreating up the ramp. I went back to my little corner of the hall and began my stretching. Before the match, I ran back to the locker room and grabbed the Hardy Boyz necklace that Jeff had given me. I waited with Amy silently behind the curtain.
"Hey, I'm sorry that I forgot you were coming back," she apologized.
"Uh-huh," I said bending backwards to crack my back.
"I'm glad you're back. It really hasn't been the same without you," she said as my music went off.
"Yeah, uh-huh. Good luck out there," I said as she held out her fists for me to hit with mine, but I just walked past her and onto the stage.
"The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, the challenger from Cameron, North Carolina. MYSTIC ANGEL!!" I stood in the middle of the ring and waited for Lita's arrival. She slid in the ring and we had a stare off before she slapped me. I glared at her and pushed her down onto the mat. I picked her up into a suplex. I started to do a back flip onto her but she rolled out of the way. She pushed me into the ropes and brought me down into a bulldog.
"Whoa!! Stop you two!!" a voice echoed through the arena. Lita and I both stopped the match and looked up at the ramp where the Hurricane was standing. She helped me to my feet and we stared at him with our arms crossed. "Look at you two!! Lita before you left for Smackdown to be with Matt, you and Angel were best friends. And Angel, I'm not mad at you for being with Jeff. I'm the complete opposite! I think you two are great for each other! You make a much better pair than the two of us ever did! I wish you two the best of luck. And Lita, I appreciate what you were trying to do for me, but I don't need you fight my battles. Please just stop the fighting! You don't belong to be enemies. You belong to be friends like you used to be!"
Lita grabbed a mic from one of the techs and began to speak. "Angel, Hurricane's right. We shouldn't be fighting. I realized I did you and Jeff wrong for pushing the ladder over and I'm sorry. I got caught up in being with Matt again and the whole Mattitude deal. And I should have never butted into what is obviously none of my business between you and the Hurricane. I'm sorry Angel. If you can ever forgive me for what I did, I'd love to be friends with you again."
I took the mic from Lita and smiled. "Li, you know I'm not the kind of person to hold a grudge! Okay, so maybe sometimes I am. But with this, I think I'm willing to forgive and forget. I think it would be great to be friends again. Hurricane, why don't you come in here. I think we have some things to discuss."
"Angel, I really don't have anything to say to you. I said what I came to say and now I'm leaving," he responded.
"Hurricane, I said come in here. Please, get in this ring," I said forcefully. He sighed and did as I requested. He stood in front of me and without warning, I kissed his lips roughly. He gave me a look of bewilderment and I smiled playfully.
"What was that?!" he questioned.
"Truth is, Jeff and I really aren't together. I just wanted to get under some people's skins. I really wanna be with you and only you. I love you," I said taking his hand in mine. "Will you please take my stupid ass back?"
"Sorry Angel. I just can't do that. You truthfully hurt me too much. Although you didn't mean too and I probably put some of those emotions on myself, I just can't bare to go through all that again. You do belong with Jeff. It's obvious how well of a team you make. We never made a very good team. So, I think it's just best that we remain friends. I'm sorry," he said as he began walking away.
"Well, I can't say that I'm not upset about this, but you shouldn't be sorry. I'm the one that should be sorry. So I am. You deserve much better than me. And I'd feel privileged if we could be friends."
"Yeah, I'll have your back. If you have mine," he said. I smiled at him and smiled as Matt walked out clapping.
"This is all very sweet. But I see you all lack what I have. And that's Mattitude. You three have NONE!!! Lita, I'm surprised in you. I thought you'd be my follower. My number one follower. But I guess I was wrong. You're just as hopeless as these other losers around here."
"Matt, what's wrong with you!?" Amy exclaimed ripping the mic out of my hands.
"What's wrong with me?! I'm not the one who's lacking something important. I'm sorry, but Lita we're through and that is an unfortunate twist of fate!" Matt walked off and the three of us stood in the middle of the ring dumbfounded. Then I took the initiative and grabbed the mic back.
"Matthew Moore Hardy! Get your scrawny wimp ass back out here!" I yelled as Matt backed up and to the spot he was standing in before.
"Yes Angel?"
"I think I speak for all of us when I say we're all sick of your damn attitude! Or whatever it is you call it!"
"MATTITUDE!!"
"WHATEVA!" I replied. "Anyways, I'm challenging you to a match at Backlash. But not any old singles match. It's gonna be a tag team match, if you can get some partners that is."
"Of course I can find a partner."
"I said SOME PARTNERS!! Plural, not singular. It'll be me, Jeff, Lita, and the Hurricane against you and whoever may be stupid enough to be partnered with you!"
"Wait! Angel, you can add one more to that list. This light heavyweight champion wants in!" Shannon announced standing next to Matt. "After all the crap you've done to me. I want a chance to get back at you!"
"Fine, we'd be glad to have you on board! So that means, Matt that you have to find four partners for Backlash. Think you can do it?" I questioned.
"I know I can do it! Who wouldn't want a chance to be partnered up with Mattitude himself. Version One, Matt Hardy!" He turned towards a smiling Shannon and walked off towards the back. Shannon smiled up at us and we smiled back before getting out of the ring and leaving.
"That was great Case. You haven't lost a thing!" Amy said.
"Yeah, right, whateva!" I said as I walked by them.
"Oh, she's still pissed," Matt said.
"Yeah she is. Do you think she'll ever get over it?" Shane asked.
"Eventually," Matt answered.
"Ya know, I remembered she was coming back tonite," Shannon said proudly.
"Well, then she can stay with YOU tonite!" Shane laughed.
"I don't want the moody one!" Shannon complained.
"Hey, if you remembered than she shouldn't be mad at you, right?" Amy pointed out.
"But she'll be mad at me cause I went with ya'll to that theme park!" Shannon said.
"Sucks to be you tonite then, don't it?!" Matt laughed as he, Amy, and Shane walked off.
"Oh come on guys! Please!! Don't do this to me!" Shannon whined as they stopped and turned back towards him.
"GOTCHA!" they yelled as they ran back to him and pig piled him.
"Don't you guys EVER do that to me again!" he said with a laugh.
"Ya know, you guys don't have to wait till I'm gone to rag on me. You can do it while I'm right with you!" I yelled with a pout and crossing my arms across my chest.
"Awe, come here baby!" Shane said as he opened his arms to me. I walked into them as they closed around me. "I missed you so much."
"Well, it's about time ya'll showed that!" I cried.
"WE LOVE YOU CASEY!!" they announced they wrapped me into a big group hug.
"Aight, aight! Enough of this sappy stuff!" I said pushing them away with a laugh.
"Come on girl, lets go get ready to leave this place! Maybe we can talk our boys into taking us out tonite to party!" Amy hinted. I laughed as she put her arm around my shoulders and led me off to the locker room.
"So they were all at a theme park?!" Jeff asked with a laugh.
"Yeah, they got to the arena early to drop off their gear and all went to the park. Can you believe that?!" I exclaimed as Shane and I walked through the airport hand in hand.
"So, they didn't forget about you?" Jeff asked.
"No, they did forget about me," I laughed.
"Ya know, if I was there, I wouldn't have forgotten about you!" Jeff said.
"Who are you kidding! Yes you would have!" I said.
"Okay, so maybe if I was near a theme park like that then I probably would have. But I would have felt massively sorry about it afterwards," he said.
"Yeah and so did everyone else!" I laughed.
"How's your shoulder doin?" he asked.
"It's sore, but I think it'll be alright. I put my arm in the sling whenever it's bothering me. In fact it's in it right now," I answered.
"Well, rest it!"
"I try! How are you doin?"
"Alright. I can't wait to get into that ring next week. And then the match at Backlash should be interesting!"
"I know, I can't wait for that either."
"Flight 316 for San Francisco is now boarding. Please have your tickets ready."
"Well, that's us. I'll talk to ya later babe!" I said as I held my ticket firmly in my hand.
"Alright. Rest that shoulder of yours and be careful in the ring. Love you!"
"Love you too!" I said as we hung up and Shane and I boarded our plane. We sat across the aisle from Shannon and Sean O'Haire and in front of Matt and Amy. Andrew and Stacy sat in front of us.
"Hey Case, if you weren't dating Shane, which one of the guys would you go out with? You could have anyone in the business. None of them would be married or dating anyone. Totally single and in the palm of your hands. Who would it be?" Stacy asked leaning over the seat.
"Oh I don't think I wanna hear this!" Shane said plug his ears and humming away.
"You really want me to choose ONE person?" I asked.
"Well, if you can't choose one, give me a list of like five. The first being the one you'd want most."
"Are you sure?" I asked.
"Yeah, Case. I'm kinda interested too!" Amy said.
"Alright. Well, I suppose the first would be.....Sean."
"Micheals?!" Matt exclaimed.
"No dipwad! O'Haire!"
"Me?! You'd choose me first?" he asked skeptically.
"Yeah, sure."
"Wow, thanks!"
"Okay, whose second?" Stacy asked curiously.
"Shannon."
"ME?! Why me?!"
"Cause you're so damn adorable!"
"Are you done yet?" Shane asked unplugging his ears.
"No, she has three more to go," Amy said happily. "So, continue.
"Okay, third I'd pick.....Andrew."
"You'd pick MY boyfriend? Wow, I kinda feel threatened," Stacy said as Andrew peeked around the chair.
"Well, if I knew you felt that way....."
"Whatever! On to number four.....Probably Rey."
"AWE!! That's so cute!!" Amy exclaimed.
"Number five has to be Jeff, right?!" Shannon said.
"Nope, actually, Jeff's not on my list. He would have if we weren't so tight as brother and sister. Hell, he probably would have been number one, but he's not on my list anymore," I said with a smile.
"So, whose number five then?" Sean asked curiously.
"Hmmmmm.....John."
"John who?" Matt asked.
"Cena," I said.
"I should have known! Ya know, he has such a crush on you," Stacy laughed.
"He does not," I said with a laugh.
"Yeah he does. He's always talking about how much he misses you. Or at least he used to," Shannon said.
"Well, I'm with Shane, so it doesn't matter! I love my Sugar," I said kissing his cheek.
"Yeah, you'd better say that after the list you just gave!" he said as I laughed.
"Oh come on! Give me a list. If I wasn't around and all the Diva's were single. Who would be your top five?" I asked.
He took a deep breath as if to show that he was thinking, but I knew he didn't have to think to hard. "Okay, number one, Ames."
"I knew you'd pick her! You always had a crush on her in Omega!" Matt laughed hitting Shane's arm playfully.
"Number two?" I questioned.
"Stacy."
"Thank you Shane!" she said with a bubbly tone.
"Number three?"
"Dawn Marie."
"Seriously?! She just doesn't seem like your type!" I said. He just shrugged and continued.
"Number four would be Torrie."
"Now her I could see!" I laughed.
"And number five would be...."
"Nora!" I interrupted.
"You would think so because of how we used to, well, be kinda together during the whole Mighty Molly, Hurricane Helms deal. But no. Number five would be Trish."
"Well, that's not that bad," I said settling into my seat. "Ames, how about you?"
"Oh no! This could get me into some trouble!" she laughed as I leaned over the seat.
"Come on! I gave you my list!" I said giving her the puppy dog look.
"Alright. Five, huh?" she asked. I nodded as she started. "Okay, number one would have to be Jeff. Without a doubt."
"You'd pick my brother?!" Matt exclaimed sounding a bit wigged out.
"Yeah, Matt. I would," she said kissing his cheek softly.
"Continue!" I said with a smile.
"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" she laughed. I shook my head and she continued. "Two would be......Adam. Three probably, Chris."
"Benoit?!" I exclaimed.
"OH GOD NO!! Not that he isn't good looking, cause I'm mean there is just something about that man!" she said.
"Yeah there is," Stacy and I said in agreement.
"I meant Irvine. Number four would be Shane. And my last pick would be...Rey, I suppose. He's just so adorable!" she laughed. "Stacy, now don't think you're gonna get out of this!! Your turn!"
"Okay, first would be Randy Orton. I mean we did have that little thing goin when he first came to WWE. Second would be Peter. Number three would be.....probably Paul. Four would be....Adam. And last would be my Andrew!" she answered.
"Ummmm...no. You can't pick Andrew!" I laughed.
"Fine, it would be Billy," she replied.
"You girls are so amazing. Seriously, you would sit here and pick guys that you would have the hots for if it wasn't for the fact that they were either taken or the fact that you guys weren't taken. And you do this right in front of your boyfriends!" Shannon laughed.
"It's okay, really. I mean, I know that she's never gonna actually go for them!" Andrew said.
"It's just some little thing. Whatever, ya know? They can think of these guys, but they can't have em," Matt laughed.
"Yeah, it's just a little game. Just to see who's hot and who's not!" Amy said.
"Matt, why don't you give us your list? Shane gave us one, we want one from you!" I said.
"Yeah, honey. I'm curious as to who you'd pick!" Amy said. Matt sat silently thinking to himself.
"Okay, Stacy, Trish, Torrie, Victoria, and Dawn Marie," he answered.
"Now I could see YOU picking Dawn Marie, but not Shane!" I laughed.
"Andrew?" Stacy said.
"Do you really want me to give you one?" he asked. We all nodded and waited for him to answer. "Torrie, Dawn Marie, Victoria, Amy, and Trish."
"Too bad my baby brother wasn't here. We could get his choices!" Matt said.
"Oh I can give you his choices," Shannon said with an evil smile that he only shows off when his head is reeling.
"Go for it!" Sean said intrigued.
"Alright. His list would go like this. Casey, Trish, Stacy, Amy, and Torrie. Simple as that!" Shannon said.
"He wouldn't choose me!" I laughed.
"RIGHT! You just keep telling yourself that dear," Andrew laughed. I just rolled my eyes and brought my headphones over my ears.
'Would he really pick me? Now I'm curious! We'll have to bring this game back up when he's around!' I thought to myself as I smiled while listening to my Fozzy cd.
A/N: Hey ya'll! Just wanted to give a little note!! What did ya'll think of the lists I made?! Do ya think they'd fit each person or what?! Well, I couldn't really think of many to put with Stacy, but I thought that was fun, ya know? Anyways, thanks for the reviews!! And for your reward you shall receive two chapters in one nite! Isn't that sweet?! Lol Anyways, I hope you enjoyed em! I'm gonna try and get up a few more before I have to go back to school. This story is goin along faster than I truly planned it too! I figured it'd take me forever to do! But it's really not! Anyways! Until next time!!! LATA!!!! (
A/N: Well, damn ff.net is screwin up again!! UGH!! This has gotten into thinking about maybe getting my own website. But the thing is that they're too expensive for this college student's budget. So, if that does happen, I'll let ya'll know a head of time. I may also see if someone might be interested in putting this on they're site. It that happens, again, I'll let ya'll know. I may even continue posting on here anyways, but if the thing ever goes wacky again (which I'd bet money it will) you'd be able to go to the website it'll be on for the updates until ff.net becomes normal again! And on a little side note, I realized that there are now two Sean's on RAW. Sean O' Haire and Sean Morely. So, if I just start talking about Sean (like I had been in this chapter) I'm talking about O'Haire. If I talk about the other Sean, I'll add Morely to it. I know that all can be confusing. I mean, even I get confused with this thing at times! Lol But I thought I'd just make it clearer that I'll normally be talking bout O'Haire. There is just something about that man! HOT!!! Lol And on another little side note, did ya'll realize that including this chapter you have read a total of 512 pages?! Long, huh?!
"I'm......what the hell!?" I exclaimed as I walked out of the locker room and towards the ring. That to was empty. There was no one in the arena, no one at all!
"Hey babes, what's up?" Jeff asked answering his cell phone.
"Well, I'm at the arena and I know I'm not in the wrong place cause everyone's stuff is here, but the owners of that stuff aren't!" I said.
"No one? Did you go down to the ring?"
"Yeah, I'm there now," I answered sitting in the middle of the ring.
"Let me guess, you're sitting inside the ring. Right in the middle with your knees brought up so you can rest your chin on them, right?" he guessed. I looked down at myself and smiled.
"No, what would make you think that?!" I said.
"Because I know you. So I know that that was a lie and you really are sitting like that," he laughed.
"Alright, so maybe I am! But what I wanna know is where is everyone?"
"Sorry, can't answer that. Have you called anyone?" Jeff asked.
"I called Trish before I got off the plane. I had to leave a voice mail."
"Maybe she hasn't heard it yet."
"But that doesn't tell me why there's no one around! Like there aren't even any tech people. No security guards. No nothing! I didn't even need to have anyone check my pass!"
"Just go wait in one of the locker rooms. I'm sure they'll show up sooner or later."
"I guess you're right. I'm goin," I laughed as I climbed out of the ring.
"How was the flight?"
"It was a little weird being on it by myself. No one to travel with. I've always been with either you, Shane, or Matt. This is bizarre!"
"I'm sure it was. I wish I could have gone. Just one more week and I'll be back," Jeff said happily.
"I know, but until then, I'll be kicking Amy's ass so that we can team up and get both of them!" I sat on the bench next to my stuff and crossed my legs.
"I gotta go. Dad wants me to go down to Matt's house to make sure that it's goin okay."
"Okay. Have fun."
"Hey, I'm sure that they'll show up soon. Don't worry."
"I love you Jeff."
"I love you too babe."
"Where the hell is everyone?!" I exclaimed to myself as I slipped my Disturbed cd into the boom box. An hour later and onto my Rob Zombie cd, there was still no one around.
"Casey?! Oh my God! You're back?!" Trish exclaimed running up to give me a hug.
"Yeah, I called and told you that I was coming in today. Where was everyone?"
"We all got here really early this morning then went to the theme park down the road. You should have been there. Andrew got sick on the roller coaster! He got such a ribbing from Sean," she laughed as Stacy and Victoria walked in.
"Casey! What are you doin back?" Stacy asked hugging me tightly.
"I'm cleared to wrestle tonite. I'm challenging Amy tonite."
"Who's challenging me?" She looked at me with her eyes wide and hugged me tightly. "I didn't know you were coming back today!"
"Yeah, neither did anyone else!" I said as we broke apart. "I would have thought you would have known, I mean, I am challenging you tonite."
"You are?! Are you sure Vince knows you're back tonite?" Amy asked.
"Well, with the way this nite is goin I wouldn't be surprised if he had forgotten," I said with a half-hearted chuckle. "Where's that lovely boyfriend of mine?"
"Shane's probably down at the ring goin over some stuff with some of the guys," Victoria answered.
"Thanks, guess I'll see ya'll later!" I said walking out of the room and goin towards the ring.
"Casey?!" Paul exclaimed sliding out of the ring.
"Hey," I said as he picked me up in his arms.
"What are you doin back here?" he asked.
"I'm starting to think that ya'll have forgotten about me," I said sadly.
"How could we forget about you?!" Rob asked taking his turn in the hug line.
"I don't know. You guys tell me!" I said rolling my eyes. "Hey Sean, I heard you were making fun of Andrew. Well done."
"Thanks kid. Welcome back. Things haven't been the same without you," he said lowering me down to the floor from his hug.
"Yeah, I'm sure," I said sarcastically.
"Case?! Angel! What are you doing here?" Shane exclaimed happily picking me up in his arms.
"You know what I'm doing here. I told you a week ago that I was gonna be here tonite! What the hell is wrong with ya'll? It's like you really forgot that I was even comin back!" I exclaimed.
"No baby. We didn't forget about you. I guess we just got used to you bein gone that you bein back tonite comes as a shock to us. How are you feeling?" Shane asked.
"I'm feeling fine. But I'm gonna go get ready for the show tonite. I'll see you later," I said with an aggravated tone.
"Oh man, she's pissed at you!" Andrew said.
"I know. I can't believe I forgot she was comin back tonite!" Shane replied.
"Don't let her know you forgot otherwise you'll be goin without IT for quite sometime there buddy," Andrew said hitting Shane's shoulder playfully before walking away.
When I got back to the locker room I pretty much ignored everyone. They all figured I was getting into my "zone", but I was just really pissed at everyone. No one even commented on my hair! I changed quickly into my newly designed baggy jeans and t-shirt. The shirt had Angel cut out on the back and was splattered with glow in the dark paint. The jeans were splattered in black, blue, purple, green, and silver paint with the back pockets cut off. I pulled on a painted bandana and put glitter all over my face. I pulled on my boots, grabbed my walkman and cds, and went to find a little corner in the hall to get away from it all. A half-hour into the show and I was called out to go to the ring to challenge Lita. "Halo" started and my pyro went off causing the arena to quake with cheering from the fans. I was back, I was home. I walked down the ramp waving to the people and flipped into the ring doin my normal entrance.
"Well....I'm bbbbaaaaaaaaaacccccckkkkkk!" I said with a laugh. "That's right. I'm all healed up. True my shoulder is still sore, but that's to be expected from it being dislocated. But I'll live. I'll move on. But I'm here by myself tonite. My partner, my best friend, my BOY friend, is still at home. He's still trying to recover. He hopes to be back next Monday nite. I hope he comes back next Monday nite. Now, I don't remember much from our match at Wrestlemania. All I know is what I've watched on RAW. And I know that me and my partner were ambushed by our once best friends, Matt and Lita. I don't know why they did what they did and frankly, I don't care. But tonite, I plan on getting some revenge for what happened. I'm not stupid enough to take on both Matt and Lita by myself. But I am goin to challenge Lita to a match, tonite, right here on RAW. So, Lita, come on out here and tell me if you except!"
"Welcome back Angel! It's so good to see you all healed up!" Lita said walking onto the stage. "And I'm sorry that Jeff isn't back. But did I hear you right? Did you say that he's your boyfriend?"
"I don't see what that has to do with anything. But yes, I did say that."
"Well, congrats! I knew it would happen sooner or later. And just to let you know, your ex, the Hurricane, is still in love with you! Bet you didn't know that, did you?!"
"No, but that has nothing to do with anything!"
"Well, you see, it does. He's my friend. He's a very good friend. And you, Angel, hurt him. You hurt him so badly. He still defends you! But I'm going to give you something he should have done months ago. AN ASS KICKING!! I accept your challenge. Not because I want to wrestle you, but because I want to make your life a living hell by sending you back home with more injuries for what you did to my best friend! I'll see you later tonite, Angel!" She threw down the mic and walked away.
"Yeah, welcome back Angel," I said to myself before climbing out of the ring and retreating up the ramp. I went back to my little corner of the hall and began my stretching. Before the match, I ran back to the locker room and grabbed the Hardy Boyz necklace that Jeff had given me. I waited with Amy silently behind the curtain.
"Hey, I'm sorry that I forgot you were coming back," she apologized.
"Uh-huh," I said bending backwards to crack my back.
"I'm glad you're back. It really hasn't been the same without you," she said as my music went off.
"Yeah, uh-huh. Good luck out there," I said as she held out her fists for me to hit with mine, but I just walked past her and onto the stage.
"The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, the challenger from Cameron, North Carolina. MYSTIC ANGEL!!" I stood in the middle of the ring and waited for Lita's arrival. She slid in the ring and we had a stare off before she slapped me. I glared at her and pushed her down onto the mat. I picked her up into a suplex. I started to do a back flip onto her but she rolled out of the way. She pushed me into the ropes and brought me down into a bulldog.
"Whoa!! Stop you two!!" a voice echoed through the arena. Lita and I both stopped the match and looked up at the ramp where the Hurricane was standing. She helped me to my feet and we stared at him with our arms crossed. "Look at you two!! Lita before you left for Smackdown to be with Matt, you and Angel were best friends. And Angel, I'm not mad at you for being with Jeff. I'm the complete opposite! I think you two are great for each other! You make a much better pair than the two of us ever did! I wish you two the best of luck. And Lita, I appreciate what you were trying to do for me, but I don't need you fight my battles. Please just stop the fighting! You don't belong to be enemies. You belong to be friends like you used to be!"
Lita grabbed a mic from one of the techs and began to speak. "Angel, Hurricane's right. We shouldn't be fighting. I realized I did you and Jeff wrong for pushing the ladder over and I'm sorry. I got caught up in being with Matt again and the whole Mattitude deal. And I should have never butted into what is obviously none of my business between you and the Hurricane. I'm sorry Angel. If you can ever forgive me for what I did, I'd love to be friends with you again."
I took the mic from Lita and smiled. "Li, you know I'm not the kind of person to hold a grudge! Okay, so maybe sometimes I am. But with this, I think I'm willing to forgive and forget. I think it would be great to be friends again. Hurricane, why don't you come in here. I think we have some things to discuss."
"Angel, I really don't have anything to say to you. I said what I came to say and now I'm leaving," he responded.
"Hurricane, I said come in here. Please, get in this ring," I said forcefully. He sighed and did as I requested. He stood in front of me and without warning, I kissed his lips roughly. He gave me a look of bewilderment and I smiled playfully.
"What was that?!" he questioned.
"Truth is, Jeff and I really aren't together. I just wanted to get under some people's skins. I really wanna be with you and only you. I love you," I said taking his hand in mine. "Will you please take my stupid ass back?"
"Sorry Angel. I just can't do that. You truthfully hurt me too much. Although you didn't mean too and I probably put some of those emotions on myself, I just can't bare to go through all that again. You do belong with Jeff. It's obvious how well of a team you make. We never made a very good team. So, I think it's just best that we remain friends. I'm sorry," he said as he began walking away.
"Well, I can't say that I'm not upset about this, but you shouldn't be sorry. I'm the one that should be sorry. So I am. You deserve much better than me. And I'd feel privileged if we could be friends."
"Yeah, I'll have your back. If you have mine," he said. I smiled at him and smiled as Matt walked out clapping.
"This is all very sweet. But I see you all lack what I have. And that's Mattitude. You three have NONE!!! Lita, I'm surprised in you. I thought you'd be my follower. My number one follower. But I guess I was wrong. You're just as hopeless as these other losers around here."
"Matt, what's wrong with you!?" Amy exclaimed ripping the mic out of my hands.
"What's wrong with me?! I'm not the one who's lacking something important. I'm sorry, but Lita we're through and that is an unfortunate twist of fate!" Matt walked off and the three of us stood in the middle of the ring dumbfounded. Then I took the initiative and grabbed the mic back.
"Matthew Moore Hardy! Get your scrawny wimp ass back out here!" I yelled as Matt backed up and to the spot he was standing in before.
"Yes Angel?"
"I think I speak for all of us when I say we're all sick of your damn attitude! Or whatever it is you call it!"
"MATTITUDE!!"
"WHATEVA!" I replied. "Anyways, I'm challenging you to a match at Backlash. But not any old singles match. It's gonna be a tag team match, if you can get some partners that is."
"Of course I can find a partner."
"I said SOME PARTNERS!! Plural, not singular. It'll be me, Jeff, Lita, and the Hurricane against you and whoever may be stupid enough to be partnered with you!"
"Wait! Angel, you can add one more to that list. This light heavyweight champion wants in!" Shannon announced standing next to Matt. "After all the crap you've done to me. I want a chance to get back at you!"
"Fine, we'd be glad to have you on board! So that means, Matt that you have to find four partners for Backlash. Think you can do it?" I questioned.
"I know I can do it! Who wouldn't want a chance to be partnered up with Mattitude himself. Version One, Matt Hardy!" He turned towards a smiling Shannon and walked off towards the back. Shannon smiled up at us and we smiled back before getting out of the ring and leaving.
"That was great Case. You haven't lost a thing!" Amy said.
"Yeah, right, whateva!" I said as I walked by them.
"Oh, she's still pissed," Matt said.
"Yeah she is. Do you think she'll ever get over it?" Shane asked.
"Eventually," Matt answered.
"Ya know, I remembered she was coming back tonite," Shannon said proudly.
"Well, then she can stay with YOU tonite!" Shane laughed.
"I don't want the moody one!" Shannon complained.
"Hey, if you remembered than she shouldn't be mad at you, right?" Amy pointed out.
"But she'll be mad at me cause I went with ya'll to that theme park!" Shannon said.
"Sucks to be you tonite then, don't it?!" Matt laughed as he, Amy, and Shane walked off.
"Oh come on guys! Please!! Don't do this to me!" Shannon whined as they stopped and turned back towards him.
"GOTCHA!" they yelled as they ran back to him and pig piled him.
"Don't you guys EVER do that to me again!" he said with a laugh.
"Ya know, you guys don't have to wait till I'm gone to rag on me. You can do it while I'm right with you!" I yelled with a pout and crossing my arms across my chest.
"Awe, come here baby!" Shane said as he opened his arms to me. I walked into them as they closed around me. "I missed you so much."
"Well, it's about time ya'll showed that!" I cried.
"WE LOVE YOU CASEY!!" they announced they wrapped me into a big group hug.
"Aight, aight! Enough of this sappy stuff!" I said pushing them away with a laugh.
"Come on girl, lets go get ready to leave this place! Maybe we can talk our boys into taking us out tonite to party!" Amy hinted. I laughed as she put her arm around my shoulders and led me off to the locker room.
"So they were all at a theme park?!" Jeff asked with a laugh.
"Yeah, they got to the arena early to drop off their gear and all went to the park. Can you believe that?!" I exclaimed as Shane and I walked through the airport hand in hand.
"So, they didn't forget about you?" Jeff asked.
"No, they did forget about me," I laughed.
"Ya know, if I was there, I wouldn't have forgotten about you!" Jeff said.
"Who are you kidding! Yes you would have!" I said.
"Okay, so maybe if I was near a theme park like that then I probably would have. But I would have felt massively sorry about it afterwards," he said.
"Yeah and so did everyone else!" I laughed.
"How's your shoulder doin?" he asked.
"It's sore, but I think it'll be alright. I put my arm in the sling whenever it's bothering me. In fact it's in it right now," I answered.
"Well, rest it!"
"I try! How are you doin?"
"Alright. I can't wait to get into that ring next week. And then the match at Backlash should be interesting!"
"I know, I can't wait for that either."
"Flight 316 for San Francisco is now boarding. Please have your tickets ready."
"Well, that's us. I'll talk to ya later babe!" I said as I held my ticket firmly in my hand.
"Alright. Rest that shoulder of yours and be careful in the ring. Love you!"
"Love you too!" I said as we hung up and Shane and I boarded our plane. We sat across the aisle from Shannon and Sean O'Haire and in front of Matt and Amy. Andrew and Stacy sat in front of us.
"Hey Case, if you weren't dating Shane, which one of the guys would you go out with? You could have anyone in the business. None of them would be married or dating anyone. Totally single and in the palm of your hands. Who would it be?" Stacy asked leaning over the seat.
"Oh I don't think I wanna hear this!" Shane said plug his ears and humming away.
"You really want me to choose ONE person?" I asked.
"Well, if you can't choose one, give me a list of like five. The first being the one you'd want most."
"Are you sure?" I asked.
"Yeah, Case. I'm kinda interested too!" Amy said.
"Alright. Well, I suppose the first would be.....Sean."
"Micheals?!" Matt exclaimed.
"No dipwad! O'Haire!"
"Me?! You'd choose me first?" he asked skeptically.
"Yeah, sure."
"Wow, thanks!"
"Okay, whose second?" Stacy asked curiously.
"Shannon."
"ME?! Why me?!"
"Cause you're so damn adorable!"
"Are you done yet?" Shane asked unplugging his ears.
"No, she has three more to go," Amy said happily. "So, continue.
"Okay, third I'd pick.....Andrew."
"You'd pick MY boyfriend? Wow, I kinda feel threatened," Stacy said as Andrew peeked around the chair.
"Well, if I knew you felt that way....."
"Whatever! On to number four.....Probably Rey."
"AWE!! That's so cute!!" Amy exclaimed.
"Number five has to be Jeff, right?!" Shannon said.
"Nope, actually, Jeff's not on my list. He would have if we weren't so tight as brother and sister. Hell, he probably would have been number one, but he's not on my list anymore," I said with a smile.
"So, whose number five then?" Sean asked curiously.
"Hmmmmm.....John."
"John who?" Matt asked.
"Cena," I said.
"I should have known! Ya know, he has such a crush on you," Stacy laughed.
"He does not," I said with a laugh.
"Yeah he does. He's always talking about how much he misses you. Or at least he used to," Shannon said.
"Well, I'm with Shane, so it doesn't matter! I love my Sugar," I said kissing his cheek.
"Yeah, you'd better say that after the list you just gave!" he said as I laughed.
"Oh come on! Give me a list. If I wasn't around and all the Diva's were single. Who would be your top five?" I asked.
He took a deep breath as if to show that he was thinking, but I knew he didn't have to think to hard. "Okay, number one, Ames."
"I knew you'd pick her! You always had a crush on her in Omega!" Matt laughed hitting Shane's arm playfully.
"Number two?" I questioned.
"Stacy."
"Thank you Shane!" she said with a bubbly tone.
"Number three?"
"Dawn Marie."
"Seriously?! She just doesn't seem like your type!" I said. He just shrugged and continued.
"Number four would be Torrie."
"Now her I could see!" I laughed.
"And number five would be...."
"Nora!" I interrupted.
"You would think so because of how we used to, well, be kinda together during the whole Mighty Molly, Hurricane Helms deal. But no. Number five would be Trish."
"Well, that's not that bad," I said settling into my seat. "Ames, how about you?"
"Oh no! This could get me into some trouble!" she laughed as I leaned over the seat.
"Come on! I gave you my list!" I said giving her the puppy dog look.
"Alright. Five, huh?" she asked. I nodded as she started. "Okay, number one would have to be Jeff. Without a doubt."
"You'd pick my brother?!" Matt exclaimed sounding a bit wigged out.
"Yeah, Matt. I would," she said kissing his cheek softly.
"Continue!" I said with a smile.
"You're enjoying this, aren't you?" she laughed. I shook my head and she continued. "Two would be......Adam. Three probably, Chris."
"Benoit?!" I exclaimed.
"OH GOD NO!! Not that he isn't good looking, cause I'm mean there is just something about that man!" she said.
"Yeah there is," Stacy and I said in agreement.
"I meant Irvine. Number four would be Shane. And my last pick would be...Rey, I suppose. He's just so adorable!" she laughed. "Stacy, now don't think you're gonna get out of this!! Your turn!"
"Okay, first would be Randy Orton. I mean we did have that little thing goin when he first came to WWE. Second would be Peter. Number three would be.....probably Paul. Four would be....Adam. And last would be my Andrew!" she answered.
"Ummmm...no. You can't pick Andrew!" I laughed.
"Fine, it would be Billy," she replied.
"You girls are so amazing. Seriously, you would sit here and pick guys that you would have the hots for if it wasn't for the fact that they were either taken or the fact that you guys weren't taken. And you do this right in front of your boyfriends!" Shannon laughed.
"It's okay, really. I mean, I know that she's never gonna actually go for them!" Andrew said.
"It's just some little thing. Whatever, ya know? They can think of these guys, but they can't have em," Matt laughed.
"Yeah, it's just a little game. Just to see who's hot and who's not!" Amy said.
"Matt, why don't you give us your list? Shane gave us one, we want one from you!" I said.
"Yeah, honey. I'm curious as to who you'd pick!" Amy said. Matt sat silently thinking to himself.
"Okay, Stacy, Trish, Torrie, Victoria, and Dawn Marie," he answered.
"Now I could see YOU picking Dawn Marie, but not Shane!" I laughed.
"Andrew?" Stacy said.
"Do you really want me to give you one?" he asked. We all nodded and waited for him to answer. "Torrie, Dawn Marie, Victoria, Amy, and Trish."
"Too bad my baby brother wasn't here. We could get his choices!" Matt said.
"Oh I can give you his choices," Shannon said with an evil smile that he only shows off when his head is reeling.
"Go for it!" Sean said intrigued.
"Alright. His list would go like this. Casey, Trish, Stacy, Amy, and Torrie. Simple as that!" Shannon said.
"He wouldn't choose me!" I laughed.
"RIGHT! You just keep telling yourself that dear," Andrew laughed. I just rolled my eyes and brought my headphones over my ears.
'Would he really pick me? Now I'm curious! We'll have to bring this game back up when he's around!' I thought to myself as I smiled while listening to my Fozzy cd.
A/N: Hey ya'll! Just wanted to give a little note!! What did ya'll think of the lists I made?! Do ya think they'd fit each person or what?! Well, I couldn't really think of many to put with Stacy, but I thought that was fun, ya know? Anyways, thanks for the reviews!! And for your reward you shall receive two chapters in one nite! Isn't that sweet?! Lol Anyways, I hope you enjoyed em! I'm gonna try and get up a few more before I have to go back to school. This story is goin along faster than I truly planned it too! I figured it'd take me forever to do! But it's really not! Anyways! Until next time!!! LATA!!!! (
A/N: Well, damn ff.net is screwin up again!! UGH!! This has gotten into thinking about maybe getting my own website. But the thing is that they're too expensive for this college student's budget. So, if that does happen, I'll let ya'll know a head of time. I may also see if someone might be interested in putting this on they're site. It that happens, again, I'll let ya'll know. I may even continue posting on here anyways, but if the thing ever goes wacky again (which I'd bet money it will) you'd be able to go to the website it'll be on for the updates until ff.net becomes normal again! And on a little side note, I realized that there are now two Sean's on RAW. Sean O' Haire and Sean Morely. So, if I just start talking about Sean (like I had been in this chapter) I'm talking about O'Haire. If I talk about the other Sean, I'll add Morely to it. I know that all can be confusing. I mean, even I get confused with this thing at times! Lol But I thought I'd just make it clearer that I'll normally be talking bout O'Haire. There is just something about that man! HOT!!! Lol And on another little side note, did ya'll realize that including this chapter you have read a total of 512 pages?! Long, huh?!
