Chapter 7: The month of waiting, and what?
Author's notes: Sniffles... Thanks guys... GO CALLI AND MAEVE!!! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing A Battle With Evolution! Oh, I forgot to say earlier, that I created the character of Sharon Jacobs, so I have NO idea if she's actually real or not... Anyways, Here's chapter 7!
Callisto and Maeve went back to Taker's ranch, where they received a round of applause from their family members. Callisto smiled, and sat down, where Maeve looked around. "Where are John and Jeff?" Callisto looked around, realizing that the two were gone. "They've gone somewhere, didn't say where." Glenn said, eating his corn flakes. Callisto got up, to make herself some, but Glenn reached over and handed her a bowl. "I have a surprise for Ya, Calli." Callisto raised an eyebrow, and Glenn smirked. "We're moving."
Callisto's eyes widened, and Maeve looked over at her. One thing Maeve knew about Calli, was that she absolutely HATED moving. Callisto stormed off, and Glenn frowned. "Maeve, you go check on Callisto, I'll get the truck."
Maeve went outside, and saw Callisto sitting next to the pool, head buried into her knees. " I don't want to leave, Cuzzie... I don't want to leave all my friends again." Maeve sat down beside her and hugged her. "You're dad told me that he was going to take us to where you're moving to tonight. It can't be that far away then, maybe a couple hours, maybe— " Callisto heard a horn beeping from the other ranch, only a couple kilometers away. "Only two minutes by truck."
Callisto laughed as she saw her dad waving over from the other ranch, indicating that they were going to be neighbors with their family. Maeve smirked, and then both of them went to the front of the house, where they waited for Glenn, and when he came, Callisto enveloped him in a huge hug. Maeve smirked evilly, and when she noticed she had the camera in her pocket... FLASH! "It's a Kodak moment..." Maeve said, wiping a mock tear as Callisto and Glenn turned to her.
The next morning, Callisto and Maeve awoke at the same time, when they noticed a note on the fridge door. 'We'll be back later, went to go run some errands. –Glenn, Mark and Sara.' Maeve and Callisto went outside, where they decided it would be fun if they went to go see some movies, where Callisto wanted to go see Garfield again, as she had seen it twice already. After writing a note, they went to the local cinema, and watched three movies there. After that, they went to the mall where they saw Eddie, RVD, Charlie, Jeff, John, Glenn, Mark, Sara, and finally the McMahon's, all shopping in different stores. They soon realized that they were not the only ones there, as almost all of both rosters had come and go, as Callisto found out from some shop owners.
Callisto and Maeve decided to go up to there fathers, and ask what was going on. Glenn and Sara got away in time, but Maeve made sure her father did not move an inch. "What is going on?" Maeve yelled, knowing if she made the tiniest hint that she was mad, her father would crack like an egg. Mark flinched, and smiled. "We're going shopping for Sara's Birthday party! The decorations and stuff, no big deal." Maeve raised an eyebrow. "Right... Really, what are you doing here?" Fortunately and Miraculously for Mark, John wrapped his arm around Maeve. "Hey, Shadow lady." Maeve grinned. "Me and Jeff would like to take you two out for lunch. Want to come?" Callisto smiled. "Sure, Come on, Cuzzie..." Maeve hesitantly went along, and gave a death glare to her father before she left.
As they ate their lunches, Maeve decided to start a conversation. "So, what is everyone doing here?" John went silent for a moment, and Callisto noticed that Jeff face paled. "We guessed that everyone is doing some shopping before Summerslam. Me and Jeff were going to go to get some new CD's, and Jeff was going to browse at the Guitar store." Callisto smiled. "Oh, so that's it. We were just wondering cause we heard that a lot of Wrestlers were here today." Maeve was not going to go down so easy. "But why was everyone here on the same day?" Jeff shrugged. "If I knew, I'd tell you, Maeve." Maeve crossed her arms, and sighed angrily. Callisto couldn't help but wonder. 'What are they hiding?'
Jeff took Callisto over to the pet store, where she was ogling over at some cute Golden Retriever puppies. Meanwhile, John and Maeve were at the nearest clothes store, Maeve drowning in clothes she wanted. John happily took the load of clothes off Maeve, but then fell onto a chair as Maeve put on three more outfits. 'Now I know why her dad said to avoid the clothes stores...' John thought, and then whimpered as Maeve put three more outfits on the growing pile of clothes. John asked Maeve to cool it, as he had some explaining to do, and he needed her help with something. As Maeve heard his explanation, she happily agreed to his request. "So that's why Dad was so silent, huh."
Callisto smiled as she looked through the pet store, and she looked over to Jeff. "My Mom never let me have a pet, but Uncle Mark, man, he was sneaky. He tried to smuggle a cat into my luggage, but my Mom wouldn't let him, and then she made a law that any time I went over, any animals would not be allowed in a fifty foot radius." Jeff whistled in astonishment, and then smiled. "Hey Calli, look over here." Jeff said, as he noticed Glenn was coming into the pet shop, and quickly winked at him while Callisto was preoccupied with the hamsters. As Glenn came in, he was wandering around the shop frantically, that way Calli wouldn't see him. Jeff started whistling a tune, and then motioned with his head to the Puppy Callisto was looking at earlier. Glenn smiled gratefully, and whispered to the cashier that he wanted that one, without his daughter, who was five feet away from the dog, knowing.
20 minutes later, Glenn dashed out of the pet store, and Jeff and Callisto went out soon after, Callisto noticing that the puppy she thought was adorable was gone. "Oh well," She said. "I know a lucky kid will thank whoever bought them that puppy." Jeff smiled, oh so wishing he could tell Callisto how right she was.
As Callisto, Maeve, John and Jeff got back to the house, Mark and Sara were watching television, and Glenn was nowhere to be seen. Mark told them that Glenn had to be called in, as he was making some last minute arrangements for their new house. Jeff's eyes widened as he saw the numerous number of bags hanging off John as they entered the living room, and Mark snickered slightly. Mark sent him a look that plainly said, I told you so.
Glenn arrived soon later in the afternoon, asking if Callisto wanted to take a walk to the new house. She agreed without hesitation. Callisto wondered oddly, 'I KNOW Dad hates walking when he can drive there much quicker... what is wrong with this picture?'
As they got to the new house, Callisto noticed a couple cars that weren't her father's or hers. When she was about to ask whose cars they were, Glenn handed her a set of keys. "Welcome to you're new house, Callisto Jacobs." He opened the door, and the room was dark. Callisto went to the light switch, and as she turned it on, the words of around 50 people yelled, "SURPRISE!!! Happy Birthday Callie!"
Callisto was shocked, and her eyes widened. It was almost all of the rosters in the same place! She hugged her father furiously as she went and saw the place. The room was decorated in purple and blue, Callisto's favorite color, and the couches and coffee tables were covered in birthday presents. It was like entering a room on MTV'S Becoming! There were notes from some guys saying Happy Birthday and they were sorry that they couldn't come, but they gave presents anyways. She even noticed a present from Evolution, and of course, you have to remember, that Paul was still nice enough to get her a birthday present, and that they were really friends. The only times Callisto had ever seen any member of Evolution act like jerk-offs was when they were on television. Well, time for happiness, Callisto thought, as she hugged her dad, Maeve, Mark and Sara.
Callisto started opening up her gifts right away, with Maeve's help, of course. The two would put a present into their lap, then see who could tear off the paper first. Maeve usually won, but Callisto surprised her cousin a couple times. Callisto had been given movies, clothes, and anything electronic, when a larger gift that way laying down on the couch caught her eye. Jeff handed it to her, and Callisto noticed it was from him. She tore off the wrapping paper, and she was about to do back flips. It was an electric guitar, which looked pretty expensive. Glenn stared at Jeff for a moment, amazed, then smiled. By now, people were starting to leave, and Sara had already gone off to bed. Callisto decided to grab the present from Evolution next. She opened it to find sheet music, with her name on it, and the music was blank. A Post it note said, 'Hope you enjoy –From Evolution' Callisto smiled, and then noticed that only a few more guests remained. The McMahon's, and Eddie Guerrero. The McMahon's smiled, and Stephanie told her that she had a big surprise for her. They all went outside, and Jeff had his hands covering Callie's eyes. "Okay, you can open them now!" Jeff moved his hands, and Callisto brought her hands to her mouth in shock.
Stephanie, Shane and Linda had bought her a Dodge Viper! The car she always wanted! She had gotten things that she only dreamed of. Vince told Callisto that he needed to talk to Her and Maeve for a bit, and they all went back inside.
Vince smiled, as he told Callisto and Maeve to sit down for this. "I talked to the board of directors last week, and we figured out a new storyline for you two. After Summerslam, Stephanie's going to come out, saying that the women should have another thing to aspire when they come to Raw and Smackdown. She'll reveal something new, and then, you guys will be in front line for this new thing!" Maeve was beaming, and Callisto smiled. Now was the time to say it, she thought, and she looked over to her dad, who nodded, he knew what she was thinking. "Mr. McMahon, I'm sorry to say this, but I'm going to take a break from wrestling after Summerslam. Just a couple months, to get to know my cousin and my dad better. I just hope you understand." Maeve's eyes widened, as she never thought she'd ever hear that Callisto wanted a break from wrestling when she didn't have an injury. "What?" Vince said, looking amazed as well. "I just want a couple months off. Two, at the most. Then we can do this new storyline thing. Would that be okay?" Vince paused for a moment, then looked back at Callie and smiled. "That would be fine. You are very wise for a 22 year old."
Finally, all the waiting was finished. Summerslam had arrived.
Callisto, Maeve, John and Jeff arrived in the same car, and walked to the back. They walked into their locker room and got dressed, as they were all ready. Tonight, was a time for battle. And Kane's Battle with Evolution, was about to end. And it wasn't going to be easy. On Evolution, that is.
