Jericho had long since gone into his room and went immediately to bed,
feeling horrible. Benoit and Trish took their time getting back to their
room and were in the elevator talking.
"Well, what do we do?" Trish was asking.
"If you be quiet and let me think of something I'll tell you." Benoit said.
The door opened on a floor below them and a man got in. The door closed and began to go up to Benoit and Trish's floor.
"Hey Benoit, do you know what time it is?" Trish asked.
"Uh.." Benoit looked at his watch, it was a very expensive one at that.
"I do." The man's voice made the due turn. The elevator stopped on their floor but the man pushed the stop button, freezing all activities of the elevator. "Time for you to die." He pulled out a gun. Shocked and afraid, Benoit and Trish screamed. "You'd be quiet if you knew what's good for ya!" The man pointed it at them. "Well come on, let's have it. Empty out those pockets." Trish and Benoit gave him everything they had. "You two may have been able to foil my partner, but I'm here for revenge."
"Wait, aren't you." Trish stuttered, recognizing his face.
"Yes, that's right." The man smiled cruelly.
"But, we're not in Illinois!" Benoit cried.
"How gullible you are." The man laughed.
"Ah, help!" Trish and Benoit yelled. They opened the door with the emergency open button and ran down the hall.
"Hey, get back here!" The man chased them.
Benoit and Trish ran to their room and locked the door. Panting, they ran over to sleeping Jericho who was still in his shorts but now dry.
"Jericho, help us!" Benoit shook his friend awake.
"What's wrong?" Jericho sighed, groaning.
"That guys is trying to kill us, the jewel thief!" Trish whimpered.
"Nice try, but we're in Texas." Jericho smirked.
"He's here, don't you remember the newspaper?" Benoit showed him the morning paper.
"Well, I thought you said I sucked as a champ." Jericho was fully awake now.
"Uh, no I didn't." Benoit gulped.
"Oh yes you did, and you said it to Jericho." Trish pointed out and Jericho smiled.
"You're not helping." Benoit muttered to Trish.
"Hey, where'd you go?" The man's voice was heard outside.
"Oh please Jericho, I'm sorry! You have to save us, I mean, look at you, you're the Undisputed Champion!" Benoit was begging him now.
"It was early in the morning, he just wasn't thinking." Trish added.
"Yea, so go and get him." Benoit pulled Jericho.
"I don't know Benoit, I just don't think I have it in me." Jericho sighed.
"Oh this is useless, completely pointless!" Benoit was sick of Jericho being so stubborn.
"Here you are!" The man kicked down the door. Trish and Benoit screamed and hugged each other in fear. Jericho looked up, snapped out of his sullen state.
"Stop!"
Jericho's voice boomed. Trish and Benoit were shocked at this sudden change in Jericho. He jumped off of the bed and landed in front of his friends, facing the jewel thief. Trish and Benoit backed up, watching him, as Jericho posed and flexed at the criminal. Finally he dashed over and jumped on him, but the man moved aside and Jericho hit the wall and staggered back, falling on the floor.
"Come on champ, get him down for the count." Benoit pep talked Jericho.
"Go Jericho go!" Trish cheered.
The man turned to the two, but as he was distracted, it allowed Jericho to get up and attack the crook. As the two tussled and fought, the gun flew out of the man's hand and he was helpless in the hand-to-hand combat against the wrestler. Benoit and Trish backed up for safety and hid in the bathroom. Finally the noise died down and all was quiet. Benoit and Trish opened the door as Jericho walked over panting.
"Jericho, you did it!" They cried happily.
"You know what?" Jericho said between breaths. "I guess my instincts really did kick in."
"And not a moment too soon, you beat him." Benoit patted his back.
"Wow, the Undisputed Champion captures a notorious jewel thief." Trish smiled as she got her and Benoit's things back from the unconscious criminal.
"Well you'd better call the cops." Jericho added.
"Good idea." Benoit took his cell phone from Trish and did just that.
Later..
"Wow, you caught both the criminal and his partner. You must be a very talented champion." The officer was saying to Jericho.
"Bah, it was nothing. I couldn't have done it without my friends." Jericho smiled.
"Well, solo or not, you really saved the day for not only Texas but for the world. Who knows what this guy could've done, what he could've stolen." The cop replied.
"That's just our Chris." Trish hugged him. "He's a hero."
"Not just a hero, he's a champion." Benoit patted his friends back.
"That's Benoit, coming from you, that means a lot." Jericho smiled.
And so, mission accomplished for the WWE trio in Texas. They promoted WrestleMania at their news conference and captured the escaped criminal and his crook of a partner. Ironically, at WrestleMania, Jericho would have to fight Benoit in the main event title match. So let's flash forward, if you will, to when Trish, Jericho and Benoit return to Texas but not for a conference or hero mission, but for the grand daddy of them all, WrestleMania!
