~Next Monday at RAW~

"Nora, I hate to ask you, but have you seen Rob or Rene around?"

"Jameigh, don't you think if Rene was here I would be with him?"

Jameigh pretended to think about that for a second. "Oh, yeah, I guess you would. Heaven forbid he do so much as piss without you being there." Nora flicked her off and went back to her stretching. Jameigh tapped her on the shoulder and whispered in her ear. "It's called Buns of Steel, honey. You might want to try it sometime." Nora whirled around, and was about to jump on her, but Rene's voice stopped it.

"Nora, ignore her. Let someone else take out the trash. Didn't you want to talk to her Rob?" Jameigh sent him a scathing look and turned to Rob.

"I did want to talk to both of you, but if he needs to know anything, I guess you can tell him."

Rob sighed at the childishness. "I guess so. What's up?" She led him over to another bench and they sat down.

"Vince just told me that he wants the transition to happen tonight."

"Isn't that kind of soon?"

Jameigh shrugged and started biting her thumbnail. "I dunno. You know we built it up at the house shows. I'm filming a pretape in a little bit with the guys where I walk out on them. Then live I'm supposed to come to your dressing room and 'offer my services', if you will." Nora, who had just walked by with Rene, stopped when she heard that.

"Don't you offer your services every night?"

"Fuck off Nora. You are such a bitch." Jameigh looked at her in disgust and stood. "Just stay the hell away from me. We'll plan it out later Rob." Jameigh got away from the group as fast as she could and met up with her dad, Paul, and Randy. "Are we ready for the pretape?"

"In about five minutes," Randy answered, and peered at her closely. "You ok?"

"Fine, I just had a run-in with Molly the Bitch and her egotisitcal boyfriend. Typical occurance, you know."

"Of course." They stood around in a comfortable silence until the production crew had finished setting everything up for their scene. It only took one take to film, and the rest of the day went normally until the show started.

~during the broadcast~

"Alright folks, we're back here on RAW and I have just been informed that we have a tape of an incident that occured earlier today."

"That's right JR, it seems as though Evolution has lost a member. Let's roll the tape." The cameras panned away from the announce table and the video started.

"Dad, did you want me to come down to the ring with you tonight?" Jameigh asked her father as she walked into Evolution's dressing room.

"No, I don't think that's a good idea," Ric said, with an embarassed look in his face.

"Why not?" The three men looked at each other, but it was Randy who spoke.

"Because we don't like to associate with anyone outside of our group," he said smugly. The implicatin set in, but Jameigh still looked to the other two for clarification.

"What exactly is he talking about?"

Paul rooled his eyes at her before answering. "Look Jameigh, it's really quite simple. You cost Randy that match last week, and that's just not acceptable. Go find another group to latch onto." Jameigh, speechless by this point, looked to her dad, hoping he would do or say something, but he didn't.

"Et tu, Dad? I shouldn't be surprised. I don't know why I wasted my time with you anyway."

"Wasted your time?" Randy asked angrily. "If anything, being with us put you on the map."

"No Randy, if anything, it taught me that this is nothing but a dictatorship with Helmsley at the switch. You have a match against La Resistance tonight, right?"

"Yes, and thankfully you won't be there to mess it up."

She gave him a tight smile. "Don't count on it." The screen went to a live shot of Jameigh walking down the hall and being stopped by Terri.

"Jameigh, wait a second! Can you tell us your plan for tonight?" Jameigh smiled and nodded.

"I can tell you that I'll be out there for that match one way or another." They paused by a door, and Jameight turned back to Terri. "Thanks for the interview, but this is my stop." As she closed the door, the cameras focused on the sign, which of course said La Resistance. They went back to JR and King at the announce table.

"All I can say, King, is that the tag match tonight between La Resistance and Evolution is going to be mighty interesting."

~during the main event~

The match in front of Jameigh wasn't keeping her attention like it should be. She was more focused on what was supposed to happen after. Vince had decided just before show time that there wasn't much point in trying to turn La Resistance face, because it probably wouldn't work. He decided instead that Jameigh would manage the group, and start a romance with Rene, the reasoning for that completely beyond her grasp. She tried arguing for Rob, or even Sylvan when he came back, but her efforts were futile. Her attention was brought back to the present by the ringing of the bell. Rene had just gotten a clean pin on Randy. For a change, Evolution snuck quietly up the ramp while La Resistance started celebrating their win. Jameigh climbed into the ring and held up both of their hands. Rob pulled her into a hug before letting go, then Rene stepped closer and quickly kissed her, which surprisingly caused quite a reaction from the crowd. They walked to the back where they were met by a very unhappy Nora.

"Rene you never said you were going to kiss her!" Rob answered before Rene could.

"Get over it Nora, it's part of the job."

"And besides," Rene added as they started to walk away. "It's not like I wanted to."

"Jameigh just rolled her eyes at the pair and asked Rob," Why are they even together when all they do is argue?"

"They sat that tempers like that can equal the best passion." She eyed him skeptically. "Or maybe he just likes a...strong woman."

"That wouldn't surprise me." She started walking to the dressing room to change, but Rob's voice stopped her.

"Hey, Jameigh!"

"Yeah?" He suddenly looked nervous, which confused her a bit.

"I was just wondering if you wanted to travel with us? I mean, so we can work on things, maybe get to know each other a little better."

Jameigh smiled. "I'd like that. It can get boring traveling with my dad, so it would be a nice change. Thanks."

"No problem."

"One thing though. Does Rene know you were going to ask me?"

"Well, not exactly."

"I see. And doesn't Nora usually ride with you?"

"Unfortunately."

"Great. What am I getting myself into?"
