Foreword; there is a bang sound every time something whole passes through the portal. Towards the end of this chapter everything is put to a schedule the phrase '… minutes/hours later' will be a common occurrence. I was trying to fit a lot into this chapter and I didn't want to make it any longer than 7 written pages so things are pretty cramped towards the end. I tried you have been warned.

**Story starts here! **

Everyone looked at each other.

"Him on the stairs."

All eyes turned towards the heavens. There he was sitting on the staircase. His brown hair pulled back from his face neatly. His long black pants sharply contrasting his white poets' shirt. He walked slowly down the stairs, confidently through the group of men he had come to know as a result of being in the house. He walked over to Mongrelle but Raven stood in his way.

"How dare you, for what sadistic purpose could you wish to harm her?"

The stranger looked at Raven with eyes filled with sadness, "because I love her."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." The Rock stepped from the group and paced in front of Him. "You hurt and almost killed her because you love her. Isn't that a little, just a little, screwed up?"

"Oddly enough, no." the handsome youth continue, "if I rendered her helpless, when she got back to our dimension she may realize how much I actually do care."

Tye slapped him across the back of his head, "that's pretty fucked up, Damien."

"DAMIEN?" the wwf superstars yelled as one voice (as they only could in a story written by a freak).

"I came through the portal to make sure you guys were okay. And that she was okay. Because she's fed off me so often that we share a mental bond, I could feel her heart speeding up, I thought she was scared. So I stuck my head through the portal and what did I find."

"What did you find?" Jeff asked innocently.

Damien looked at Mongrelle, she couldn't meet his eyes. "I found my girlfriend and soul mate screwing that dirty pathetic creep."

Everyone looked at Mongrelle.

"Oh oh." she still couldn't look at him.

Damein sat next to her on the table, he pulled her onto the table next to him. "But that was just the first time I put my head through to see what was going on. I also looked a couple of other times. The second time I looked, I heard her telling everyone that Raven was better in the sack than me."

Raven had a big smile on his face and the older guys were patting him on the back.

Damien scowled at him, "then I heard her discussing how to make sure the girls could stay longer. No doubt to get in some really cheap shagging. About 10 minutes after I made her pay the price of pleasure I look through again. And she's feeding off that bastard," he stood and walked towards Raven, "and now I'm gonna kill you like I should of done her."

The male wrestlers looked at Raven, the amazons looked at Mongrelle and Mongrelle looked at Damien. She stood and caught him by the throat.

"You may want to run that by me again."

Damien turned and looked her dead in the eye, "I should have killed you when I had the chance."

Mongrelle's grip tightened, "that's what I thought you said. You see I cheated because you're not good enough. Not only in the sack but also as a human being. You make me sick, in our dimension you're a wuss. In this dimension you spied on me then you tried to kill me. I'm afraid it doesn't work like that."

She pounded him to a pulp. Waiting until he passed out before icing her knuckles (putting ice on knuckles after beating up someone reduces the swelling), then reviving him to beat him down again. By the time Mongrelle was tired of pounding her slimy boyfriend, it was midnight. The amazons put Damien in the straight jacket and left him in the girl's room next to the explosives. Everyone lined up behind the line that Raven had drawn on the floor except Mongrelle, Undertaker, the Rock and Damien.

The house was silent, then **BANG! ** A tear opened up in the wall beside the beds. Great swirling colors filled the room.

The Undertaker and the Rock took an involuntary step backwards. They were holding Damien between them.

The Rock looked at Mongrelle, "did you want to say anything to him?"

She smiled, "yeah… don't wait up."

Taker and Rock threw Damien into the chasm that was growing larger. Raven lit the explosives and everyone ducked.

***BOOM! ***

There was a second bang louder than anything they had ever heard before (due to both Damien and the explosives passing through the portal plus the explosives exploding, of course).

When the smoke (from the explosives) had cleared, all of the alcohol left in the house was opened, there was much cheering and drinking of beer. While the majority of housemates were partying in the back yard Mongrelle and Raven were sitting on the roof looking at the full moon.

"So what's going to happen to him when you get back?" Raven asked when Mongrelle laid her head on his shoulder.

She shrugged, "I don't know but it won't be pretty. I'll probably just beat him until he's almost expired and he'll recant on his death bed and say things like, 'I had the most awful dream, it was that I lost trust in you'."

Raven moved back and looked at her, "how do you know that?"

"I don't."

He nodded and looked at the guttering. She couldn't resist.

"But that's what happened last time."

* * *

It was a hot evening and all the couples (except Mongrelle and Raven) were lazing by the pool. Not in the pool, mind you, but just outside the fence. Vixen reached for another beer, Austin had tipped his cooler full of ice on the lawn turning the lawn into a cooler, sort of.

"I think you've had too many, we don't want anything weird to happen." Matt cautioned.

"I think you should mind your own business. I have a high alcohol tolerance." Vix assured him.

"Bull shit," Edge laughed breaking away from Tye's kiss. "Girl's don't have high tolerance of anything."

Tye pushed him into the pool. "Really well seeing as you think so, perhaps you'd like to make a little wager."

"Sure what did you have in mind?" Edge jumped out of the pool and gave her a big hug causing her to squeal, he was soaking wet and now so was she.

"Children, please." Lore sat up (Lore and Jeff had been lying on the ground looking at the stars), "let's have a drinking contest in teams. Amazons vs. superstars. Last one under the table gets waited on hand and foot until we leave."

Vix looked at Matt, "you game?"

Triple H staggered forward drunkenly, "no I'm the game are you drunk already?" he turned around on the spot confused, "what? What's everyone laughing at?"

"Isn't that a little one-sided?" Jeff pulled Lore back to the ground.

She sat up again," yeah! We're going to kick your ass!"

"That's not what he meant and you know it." Said the Undertaker releasing Vixen from Matt's grasp and sitting between them. "There are 11 of us and 4 of you."

"Technically no!" Vix left her father's side and sat on Matt's lap. "Raven isn't going to leave Mongrelle's side and Mongrelle doesn't drink."

"Anything besides blood. " Jeff laughed.

Lore poked him, "you'll regret that! She's a little touchy."

"Not according to Raven," Jeff smirked, "and it's not like she can hear me."

A book flew out of nowhere and hit him right between the eyes.

"Come up here and say that, cream puff!"

Raven looked at Mongrelle, "cream puff?"

She nodded, "little blob-shaped white heads straight for your hips."

"OK?"

Lore rubbed Jeff's forehead, a big blue bruise was forming. Matt and Vixen were making out again. The Undertaker couldn't stand it anymore.

"You know if I had it my way, you'd be taken into that shed and damn well hung."

"I don't know dad. He looks pretty well hung from where I am." Vixen jested. Matt was frantically making cut signs at her.

"VIXEN CALLOWAY, YOU GET YOUR HANDS OFF-A HIM NOW! Wow, that felt so natural" Taker stopped yelling to comment to the Rock, "that must mean I'm destined to have a girl and call her Vixen."

Austin stepped into the conversation, " you may have a girl and call her Vixen but will your wife have a daughter?"

Austin had barely finished his sentence when Taker blind-sided him, knocking him out cold. Triple H was still staggering around trying to get his bearings.

"What? I don't get it." He picked up the cooler filled it with ice and grass, "stop laughing", and tipped it down Lore's back. Then he shrieked and tried to run but Lore was too fast. She kicked the legs out from under him. Unfortunately hunter had the heart of a coward and he passed out before Lore could hit him even once. Lore was very pissed off, Jeff was rubbing his bruise. He looked at Lore with puppy-dog eyes, "will you kiss it better?"

She looked troubled, "I don't know that could take a lot of kissing."

Jeff perked up immediately, "that's okay I don't mind."

"Don't you guys have any shame?" asked Tye while she was taking off her wet shirt. Randy and Maven flocked to her side.

"Hi, I'm Randy."

"I'm Maven."

Edge put his arms behind him and grabbed Tye's wet shirt in one hand and his own in the other. He whipped the shirts around and smacked both Randy and Maven in the side of the head while Tye ducked into his chest, "sorry boys but she enjoys life on the Edge!"

Maven and Randy sat next to the Rock who was pissing himself laughing. Vixen spoke up when she stopped laughing herself, "if we're going to have a drinking contest, shouldn't we have some alcohol left?"

This decided all available alcohol was stowed under the ring and locked in the shed. The key was placed in the Undertaker's keep and everyone retired, (went to bed, I mean it was 4:30am). Vixen slept in 'bummer' with Matt, Lore slept in the girls' room with Jeff, Tye and Edge were sleeping on the sofa downstairs. Raven and Mongrelle slept in the attic on sheets taken from Raven's room. Kurt moved into alpha for the morning.

Everyone slept soundly until about one o'clock that afternoon what I mean to say is no one stirred until Kurt angle started sleep walking and fell down the stairs.

&$%*&# CRASH! BANG! THUD! #&*%$&!

The sound of his hollow head hitting the dining table echoed sharply in the open hall. Kurt lay on the ground still half-asleep waiting for everyone to rush down the stairs and check if he was okay. Instead he heard Maven yell, "don't worry everyone it's just Kurt."

'The cheek!' thought angle.

Austin walked down the stairs.

Kurt sat up, "at least you cared enough to come and see that I wasn't dead." He remarked to Austin. The rattlesnake almost jumped out of his skin.

"What? How long have you been there you yellow-bellied, lily-livered…"

Edge spoke up, "keep it down over there some of us are trying to sleep."

Tye sat up, "oh I don't know there didn't there didn't seem to be much sleeping where I was."

Austin continued to walk to the fridge, "aaargh! There's no beer." He shouted almost passing out.

People began to drip down the stairs slowly. At 2:30(p.m.) everyone had congregated downstairs, after eating breakfast/lunch.

"So what do we do now? Cos I'm pretty darn bored."

Everyone looked at Kurt Triple H smacked him across the back of his head, "dumbshit!"

Mongrelle stood up, "we could play grid iron."

Vixen stood up, "we could watch scary movies."

Tye stood up, "we could screw - around and do nothing?" she quickly changed her sentence when she noticed the looks she was getting from Lore and Vixen.

Lore stood up, "we could go for a swim." Randy sidled over to her, "do you want to borrow one of my bathing suits?" Maven tackled him out of the way. "No she wants to borrow one of mine," he looked at Tye, "or you could I really don't mind." Vixen laughed when the Undertaker stood up and dared anyone to give his daughter the opportunity to swim topless.

"Sit down dad! I don't know if anyone noticed but we weren't wearing pajamas when we came through the portal even though it was the middle of the night. We were wearing normal clothes with bikinis underneath."

Edge's hand shot into the air, "I noticed, I noticed!"

Raven looked at Mongrelle, "you weren't wearing a bikini."

She shook her head, "no I'm not the swim and lie in the sun type. The sun doesn't do wonders for my skin."

Triple h was again checking out the girls in his crusty way, "yes, I think that a afternoon in the pool is exactly what we're looking for."

10 minutes later.

Everyone was in the pool, splashing around, having fun. Except Mongrelle (don't get me wrong she was having fun she just wasn't in the pool) who was sitting in the kitchen in the shade. Something had been bothering her, she wandered into the living room with Raven's chart, a calculator and a pen.

**Outside**

The Undertaker was trying to cover up Vixen with a towel and she was trying to slap him.

"I'm not a little girl anymore. Fuck off!"

She was very relieved when the Rock tackled the Undertaker into the pool fence.

"Undertaker, the Rock says when you have a daughter her age you got to leave her to her own devices and don't smother her."

Taker pushed him away, "how would you know? Your daughter isn't more than 3."

The Rock looked defeated, "my wife told me."

Lore sat on Kurt's shoulders pounding his head while Jeff held him under the water. Lore laughed, "we should do things together more often." Jeff agreed.

Tye was sitting in Edge's lap on the pool steps and was mercilessly flirting with both Randy and Maven. Triple H and stone cold were debating the presence of god with Raven. Raven it seems had some twisted point of view and was insisting that god was a woman and that she was sitting in the kitchen as he spoke.

Vixen was mocking the Undertaker by making out with Matt directly in front of him. Matt was trying to subtly move away from the Undertaker who was at this moment glaring at him and making 'I'm going to kill you, boy' gestures. Finally unable to control his anger, the Undertaker went inside to brood and sulk.

At about 6:30, the house mates trudged inside for dinner. The Undertaker was talking to Mongrelle, Mongrelle was attempting to ignore him.

"Go away, I have problems of my own you know."

"Fine!" the Undertaker growled and walked to the dinner table.

By 7:30 all the superstars had eaten their fill of roast chicken and salad and were ready for the drinking contest. The Undertaker, the Rock stone Cold Steve Austin and Matt Hardy went outside to recover the rest of the alcohol (crates of beer and bottles of whiskey and vodka).

Mongrelle and Raven retired to the attic.

The amazons sat at the head of the table and the 10 superstars sat on the remaining sides. 13 glasses sat in front of the competitors, the battle and cans were open ready for consumption.

Triple H took a bottle of whiskey, he held it in the air, "let the drinking, gorging and puking begin!"

By the end of an hour, Kurt angle was under the table unconscious and half an hour later Jeff and Tye joined him. The Undertaker was hugging his daughter and telling Matt to be gentle with her. Edge was carefully poking Tye's drunken form with his foot. Lore was threatening to shove an empty bottle up Randy's … sleeping bag. Maven was hugging Triple H and Austin was having a little nap face down in a glass of beer. The Rock had walked up the stairs singing 'smackdown hotel'.

*2 hours later*

The only people still conscious were Vixen, Lore, Triple H and Austin. Everyone else in the first storey of the house was 'absolutely plastered'. After Tye and Jeff, Maven and Randy dropped out. Maven went outside to throw up and Randy threw the washing basket into the pool and slept in it. Matt was the next to go, only Vixen noticed him sliding under the table and not resurfacing.

Half an hour later

Edge and the Undertaker and anyone I haven't noticed sank to the depths of blind drunkenness. Edge was sinking like the Titanic humming 'oh Canada' again.

By the time Triple H and Austin were annihilated as well, Mongrelle and Raven were getting suspicious of the silence and they walked downstairs.

"What occasion have we to blame for this array of beings?" Raven proclaimed upon entering the room.

Lore and Vixen looked at each other and then at Raven just like in their dimension they didn't have a f-ing clue what he was talking about. They must have been just getting tipsy enough to show emotion because Raven corrected himself.

"What happened here?"

Mongrelle had stopped in the hall to look at the chart. 'Something's not right why and what?'

Back in the kitchen Vixen kicked at the bodies on the floor all 9 of them. Raven looked at Lore, "upon which lonely threshold has Randy stumbled?"

Lore look at him funny.

"He wants to know where Randy is and if you've disposed of his corpse in a nasty manner." Mongrelle walked in she looked confused although her conviction in her words did not falter.

"I don't know where he is and more importantly I don't care."

Vix however did care, sort of, "he's in the pool in a washing basket and Maven is outside too lying in a pile of his own puke."

Raven kissed Mongrelle's forehead, "I plan to retire. Will you join me?"

She nodded, "yeah I'll be up in a little while." Raven couldn't help but notice how preoccupied she was when he walked away. He got to the top of the stairs and paused.

"Raven, upon what hour does the hand appear?"

He smiled his vocabulary was rubbing off on her.

"It's almost midnight" he laughed before he ascended the attic stairs.

Randy staggered inside and collapsed on the body of Edge in a comical manner.

Vixen was looking out the back window at Maven making sure that he didn't roll out of his vomit and into the pool. Mongrelle walked back into the living room to the charts.

"What's wrong with you? You're running around like your ass is on fire." Lore had followed her in.

Mongrelle pointed to the chart, "there's something wrong with this and I can't pick it. You were always better at maths than me what's wrong with the following equation."

Lore looked at the equation and gave up puzzled, "I don't know. VIX! Maybe Vix knows."

But as it turned out Vixen didn't know either, "I'm bamboozled. There are too many pro-numerals to keep track of."

"No there are too many places in the answer."

Mongrelle, Lore and Vixen spun in shock. The kitchen was empty of intelligent life and the voice had come from nowhere.

"Down here."

Randy was lying on the floor looking up at the chart and the amazons. "There are too many spaces in the final pro-numeral"

Vixen scowled down at him, "you sneaky little bastard how do you know that?"

"Are you kidding?" Randy struggled to get to his feet but didn't succeed, "I live to prove Maven wrong."

"Touché." Lore voiced before kicking Randy in the head,"so does that change anything."

Mongrelle had a calculator in one hand and a pen in the other.

"Considerably. We have two minutes. Get Tye we have to go now!"

Lore and Vixen retrieved Tye from the kitchen and ran up the stairs. The lines that Raven had drawn were still there so they stood on the threshold, waiting.

"You have 45 seconds. If I'm not back when the portal opens leave without me." Mongrelle ordered before running off almost knocking Randy over on the way out. Mongrelle sped to the attic where Raven lay sleeping. She tore 2 pages from his book. One she quickly folded into an origami rose, she was coloring the petals black when Vix started yelling.

"HURRY UP. MONGRELLE THE PORTALS OPEN!"

There was the massive bang as the three amazons passed through the whirling colors. Randy began to whimper. Mongrelle hurried to finish what she had started. The other page was now a letter,

Dearest Raven,

I hurry to write this now, as the portal is open. Everyone is asleep so they will not remember us or the trouble we have caused. I will treasure your memory always. Do not forget me, my love.

Mongrelle

She hastened to finish the letter and left it by the gently snoring Raven's side. There was another bang and the sound of Randy running. Mongrelle bolted through the portal punching Molly in the face while running past for good measure. The portal boomed again and there was silence. The portal closed forever.

Molly and Lita had met the nicest guys on the other side, then one had disappeared and reappeared battered and bruised in a straight jacket. He had after much coaxing told them about the portal and the way it worked. They had just laid their heads on their pillows when Randy ran through the house screaming something unintelligible. All the guys slightly conscious ran (to the best of their ability) up the stairs. They locked Randy in the bathroom until morning.

Later that morning everyone in 'better' were woken by the ringing of the cell phone. Being severely hung over it took everyone a while to find the actual phone. Raven walked out of the attic and into 'better'. He walked over to the bed triple h was lying on and shoved him onto the floor. He picked up the phone and pressed the center button.

"Good morning, Australia's favorite mad house -oh greetings Vincent."

The Rock and the Undertaker were struggling to get the phone out of Raven's hand and simultaneously keep their bloodshot eyes open. Austin was asleep in the closet and was snoring loudly (somewhat resembling the sound of a chain saw, a broken chain saw).

"What the hell has been happening there? We haven't been able to get through on the phone and don't get me started on the cameras. And when we finally do get this problem cleared up we find Randy Orton in the bathroom rocking back and forth and looking like he's seen a ghost. Stone Cold Steve Austin appears to be missing. You emerge out of the attic slyly. You guys look like shit! What the fuck happened in that house for the last two days?"

Finally Vince paused for breath so Raven butted in.

"I cannot remember, I…"

The Undertaker snatched the cell phone from Raven's grasp. "Don't ask questions you don't want the answers to. We need someone to come and get Randy he appears to have a screw loose."

A voice called out of the closet, "and there's no more beer, do something about that you son of a bitch."

With that the Undertaker hung up on Vince and aimed his middle finger towards the cameras in the room. At 8 o'clock Triple H woke up and directed everyone downstairs to discuss what had happened that had erased their memories of the last 2 days. The Hardyz and Kurt walked down the stairs slowly, following at a snail's pace were room 'alpha' minus Randy of course. Behind them was the Undertaker, the Rock and Austin. And bringing up the rear but complaining loudly that they should be at the front and what ever happened to chivalry was Lita and Molly. Both of whom looked rested and refreshed (despite molly's busted lip). Randy was jumping up and down and causing a ruckus and Raven was sitting in the attic brooding but apart from that everyone was seated in the living room. Lita on Matt's lap and Molly in Kurt's arms. The Rock walked into the kitchen to call Kevin Kelly and work out what was happening with Randy.

Triple H addressed the group, "does anyone know what happened last night? Even the faintest idea?"

Lita put her hand up. Triple H nodded in her direction. She stood up and turned to face everyone with a big smile.

"You guys were completely wasted last night. Molly and me locked the door and left you to your own devices. Completely wasted!"

Molly stood up too. "Absolutely trashed!"

The Rock walked in. "they're sending men in white coats with a padded truck for Mr. Sanity."

"How long will they be?" asked Edge he was mildly hung over and desperate to use the bathroom.

"'Bout an hour? Maybe a little more. The Rock isn't certain."

Austin stood in front of everyone and tried to look better than he felt.

"shAddup! I'm going back to bed anyone makes any noise, the end of the world will come early."

Taker walked to the stairs, "that goes double for me any noise and it's all over!"

With that most people went back to bed and the other's spent the rest of the morning waiting for the men to come and get Randy.

Raven was sitting on the roof. He had been for a while, just thinking. Something weird had happened that night, it was one of those feelings that the smallest shred of evidence could bring barreling back to reality and he had that evidence in his hand. A letter and a black paper rose. On a hunch Raven sniffed the paper the rose was folded with.

'Mmm…raspberry.' A slight memory came to him suddenly it turned into a brilliant vision, her hair had smelt like raspberries. As soon as he smelt it, he could almost see her. She had blonde hair with black and blue streaks and red eyes. Raven looked at the folded letter.

'Do I dare read this? Is my heart strong enough?'

Raven sighed and threw the letter into the air before him. He watched holding his breath as a gust of wind carried it away beyond reach and then beyond sight.

Below him the men in white coats took Randy away to a place they said the 'strange women whose bodies had twisted and distorted when they disappeared through the inter-dimensional portal' couldn't hurt him. But he knew they were wrong.

And a dimension away a red-eyed girl wiped away a tear filled with blood. A red tear for a Raven with ruffled feathers.

And then there were 12…
