Masked
Chapter 2
The masked woman just barely escaped from RAW that night, managing to evade the hungry hands reaching to rip her mask for a chance at the Heavyweight title. When she came into the Staples Arena in Detroit, Michigan, she had purposely come with only a few seconds to spare before her match with Molly Holly. Carefully avoiding the wrestlers scouring the premises for a sign of her telltale leather mask, she darted near the curtains, where she faced another problem that she had well prepared herself for. HHH, Randy Orton, and Rick Flair stood, blocking the way to the curtain. The woman waited quietly, her back pressed up against the wall, stealing glances their way when they weren't looking. Finally, Molly Holly appeared. She passed a wary glance at Evolution.
"Has she come yet?" Rick demanded to know.
Molly shrugged, "The cameras in the back didn't see anyone… Doesn't mean she didn't get in another way, though," Molly shifted her weight onto her other foot, "Or she didn't have the guts to."
Rick didn't say anything, though he knew that Molly was wrong. She would show – a career in the WWE was dependant on that. But where the hell was she?
The woman took a glance around the corner sharply, just avoiding a look from Rick. She took a quick, deep breath, gripping her Singapore cane tightly in her hand. When Evolution parted, she sprang forward at a full sprint. By the time Evolution saw her, she leapt to the floor, avoiding their hands. Her momentum was still going strong as she reached the stairs. The woman turned her momentum to her wrists, flipping her body up and onto the first stair, her back to Evolution. She jumped up the first three stairs. Randy grabbed her boot, but she slapped the cane on his forearm. When he didn't let go, she held her weight up with the railings, and kicked him in the jaw. He tumbled down a few steps, slowing HHH and Rick a little. Quickly, she bounded up the stairs, and into the small room enclosed by curtains. She screeched to a stop, finding Rodney Mack and Theodore Long blocking her way to the ramp. Molly Holly appeared behind the woman, sneered at her, and walked past the two. She stepped back, sighing heavily. She heard the heavy steps of Evolution coming to her right.
"You're on!" shouted a member of the sound crew. Rodney took a step forward. Theodore stayed where he was. The masked woman looked longingly at the ramp.
"You're not going anywhere," Rodney hissed.
"Sure looks like it, doesn't it?" she replied, her blue eyes matching her icy words. Rodney stepped closer to her, obviously enjoying the fact that he was going to unmask her and get a spot in the Fatal Four Way. As his hands darted around to grapple, she leapt back and slid through his open legs. Stumbling upward, she hurdled toward the entrance to the ramp, when Theodore grabbed her from behind, his arms around her neck. As much as his grip would allow, she head butted him and broke away. Rodney ran forward, determined to get her before she went to the ring. Turning, she lobbed the cane like a javelin into his face, temporarily stunning him. Evolution broke through the curtains. After a mocking wave, she turned tail and sprinted to the ring, enjoying the furious look on Molly's face.
As she got into the ring, Molly launched at her, not waiting for the bell. Molly tackled her to the mat, bashing her head against it. The woman brought her arms back and shoved Molly enough to get the brunette off of her. At that point, the ref leapt between them. As soon as the bell rang, Molly and the woman grappled. Molly turned it into a headlock, which the woman easily reversed, sending Molly into the ropes. Molly ran straight into a spinning heel kick. The woman lifted Molly up by her hair, much to the disdain of the referee, and threw a few right hooks. Molly responded with a few punches, but the masked woman got the upper hand. She grabbed Molly's arm, placed her own arm in the small of Molly's back, and shoved Molly into the turnbuckle front-first. Molly stumbled backward, dazed. The woman climbed up the turnbuckle and waited for Molly to face her. When Molly did, she leapt off the turnbuckle, wrapped her legs around Molly's neck, and swung down and to the left, sending Molly into a full back flip, skidding across the ring. The woman wasted no time. She walked forward quickly, grabbing Molly's hair and pulling her to her feet once more. She hit a solid knee in her stomach, wrapped her arm around Molly's neck, and was about to deliver a DDT when Molly hooked her arm around the woman's neck and tried to turn it into a suplex. She pulled it off, just barely, but it was weak. Molly dragged her to her feet and delivered a backbreaker that the woman almost countered, but couldn't. This time as she forced the woman to her feet, she shoved her into the turnbuckle, and lifted her up onto it. Molly stood on the second rope, getting ready to deliver her move, when the woman's hands shot out and pushed her off of the ropes. Molly landed awkwardly on her neck. The woman climbed to the top rope and crouched as Molly stood up, clutching at her neck. The masked woman leapt forward, hooking her arm around Molly's neck and delivering a swinging DDT (Downward Spiral). She followed quickly with a moonsault from the ropes and pinned Molly.
"1…2…" the ref shouted. His arm raised for the three count, but Molly kicked out. The woman clenched her teeth and jerked Molly to her feet, and delivered a neck breaker. She forced Molly to a sitting position and grabbed her arms, pulling backward as she put the sole of her boot on Molly's neck, pushing with her leg, and kneeling on Molly's calves as she continued the hold. Molly screamed with pain as the woman's gaze looked up towards the ramp. Evolution strolled down it, grinning at her. She scowled and pushed harder with her leg and leaning back further, getting a fresh yelp of pain from Molly. Molly finally gave up. As the bell rang, Evolution slipped into the ring. The masked woman slipped out of the ring quickly, but Rick Flair still blocked her way up the ramp. After a quick debate, she leapt over the barrier and made her way through the crowd quickly. Fingers brushed by her as she finally reached the top. She sprinted around the hallway, to the exit, in case any wrestlers were up there. As the door thudded against the frame, she halted abruptly. Theodore Long, Rodney Mack, Chris Jericho, and Christian wandered through the parking lot. They all turned at the sound of the door slapping in its frame. Meanwhile, Evolution slowly made their way up to the hallway via the crowd. Chris Jericho ran towards her. She stared at him, and the others behind him, for a spilt second, before taking off in a full speed sprint. Christian managed to grab her leg near the end of the parking lot, sending her skidding across the pavement. Once she was down, he launched himself on her, ripping at the mask. Jericho reached her second, tossing Christian out of the way. Christian rebounded quickly and they started a fistfight of their own. The woman looked, and saw a fire extinguisher hanging near the end. She summed up her energy, forced herself to her feet, and grabbed it to defend herself. She sprayed the area with it. As Rodney Mack approached, blinded by the fog-like gas, she threw the extinguisher as hard as she possibly could at Rodney Mack, driving him backward. She turned tail and ran away, onto the street in front of the arena, quickly getting into a cab and driving away.
