Chapter 2

Trish stared at the man in front of her for a few seconds-the look of confusion on her face. What was he doing in here?

"This couldn't wait until tomorrow or say until I was.clothed? And you do know this is a WOMAN'S dressing room, right?"

"Of course I know and well it could have, but I have such great news for you that I didn't want you to have to wait to find out." Eric said with a smirk while Trish gave him a questioning look.

"Mr. Bischoff, what is this about?"

"Well, Trish, you don't think I gave you a title shot for nothing, do you? Everything around here comes for a price---especially when you win a title."

"What are you talking about?"

"The title shot tonight, it was planned for a reason. Congratulations for the win tonight by the way, Trish, we knew you had it in you."

"Mr. Bischoff, what are you talking about?" Trish asked repeating herself--- her nervousness slowly disappearing and anger forming in its place. She knew something bad was coming, whenever Bischoff was around, something bad was sure to come her way. Plus it didn't help her mood that she was now cold, uncomfortable, and wanted some real clothes on.

A huge grin appeared across Bischoff's face as he finally made his announcement, "You're right, to the point! Congratulations for a second thing tonight, Trish, you are now the fifth member of Evolution!"

"Excuse me?!" Trish yelled another unhappy and confused look appearing on her face. If there was one group of men in the WWE Trish did not want to get mixed up with it was Evolution. They had never been necessarily kind to her. They somehow always seemed to find a way to interfere in her matches. Trish began to recall a match from a few weeks ago. She rubbed along underneath her chin where there was now a tiny scar from the incident.

It had been her and RVD against Randy Orton and Molly Holly. It was her chance to get a shot at the Woman's Title and RVD for the IC title. Everything was already in chaos, and she was just about to go for the win when the rest of Evolution flooded the ring. She watched as Ric Flair tossed Randy his title belt. Randy proceeded to knock RVD out cold while Ric and Batista distracted the ref. They dragged the ref out of the ring and began pushing him around. Trish was shocked to see the actions before her. When she finally snapped out of her shock she noticed Molly Holly getting up from the floor. Trish jumped off the turnbuckle bringing down Molly with her. Trish tried to roll Molly up for a three count but then remembered the referee was busy with Ric and Batista. She got up to go help him out when she felt HHH grab her from behind and throw her out of the ring. She landed on the stairs below her, which knocked her out instantly. Needless to say, RVD and herself suffered their chances for title shots-or atleast so she had thought at the time.

"I knew you'd be excited. Hey, come on in guys, she's all for it!" Just as Bischoff finished his sentence, the door to the dressing room swung opened revealing all four members of evolution. Trish's eyes grew enormous and her face red at the site in front of her.

"What?! No! Get out of here!" Trish screamed at the men as they all walked in smirking and looking over her barely covered body.

"Yah know, Bischoff, I think you were right, she's perfect," A sly grin appeared on Randy's face as he began to study Trish. He laughed a little at Trish's expression and then continued, "for evolution that is."

"Isn't she just?" Eric said laughing.

"No! I don't know what happened, but this is not happening! I am not part of evolution and you all need to leave! NOW!" Trish was now furious from all the looks the men had been giving her. She tried to cover herself up more using her hands, but her attempt seemed useless. Whatever part Trish tried to cover up, the men would just find another to ogle at much to her disappointment.

"Trish, I wish it was that simple, but you see as I was saying earlier, I didn't give you that title shot for nothing. Your part of the deal for winning your title is that you are now a member of Evolution."

"No, you never said anything about a deal!"

"I don't really have to tell you any of my ideas, or deals, or whatever I come up with. If you haven't noticed, Trish, I'm the General Manager. I can do whatever I want and make whomever I want do what I want. It's a great job." Trish began to back away from the group of men. Nervousness and insecurities began taking her over once more. Trish needed to collect herself, and all these men were in her space.

"Now, don't worry, Trish, you will make a great member to Evolution You have some very vital parts that are really going to take Evolution far." Ric Flair said laughing.

"Yeah, like your great assets," Batista said finishing what Ric had started; the rest of Evolution began to laugh even harder causing Trish to only glare. She placed her arms across her chest in an attempt to cover her 'assets.'

"No, no deal." Trish said as determined as possible to stand her ground.

"There really isn't any discussing this, these guys are your new family," Eric said with another grin putting his arms around HHH and Batista. Randy and Ric had both sat down on a nearby couch, both smirking at Eric's comment.

"I don't see how you can do this," Trish blurted out.

"Trish, do you recall that contract I asked you to sign earlier today? Remember the one I said you had to sign in order to be eligible to participate tonight." Eric waited a moment for Trish to collect her thoughts. He watched as her eyes widened in horror and then continued he, "Well, obviously you didn't read the fine print too well, because as you see, not only did you sign for a chance at the Women's Title, but you also signed in agreement that if you won it, you would become part of Evolution."

"What?!"

"Look, its all right here," Eric said holding up the contract. Trish watched in confusion and anger as the contract unfolded to reveal an extra couple of paragraphs, "Didn't anyone tell you to read the fine print?"

Trish walked forward ripping the contract from Bischoff's hand and began reading. She remembered signing the contract earlier that day. Everything she had read on it had seemed to be fine, but now there was this extra paragraph. She couldn't figure out how she overlooked it. She must have been setup and in the hurry of everything she must have lost her good sense.

It was a last minute thing, Bischoff had called both her and Molly Holly into the room right before their already scheduled non-title match. He explained to them how he wanted it to be a title match, but the only way he would allow it is if they signed these basic contracts. Something about the WWE deciding that that you could only have title matches now with the contracts for legal matters. Trish had thought it to be strange, but overlooked it when she and Molly Holly began to have some words towards each other. They both signed their contracts each in a fit of rage and stormed out the room to get ready for their match.

Trish raised a hand to her forehead as she bit her lip. She had just made it to the part which talked about her becoming part of Evolution. Trish was obviously in a lot of distress when she finally looked up to meet the men's eyes in front of her, "This isn't fair."

"Who's talking about fair?" Eric asked laughing. Trish was really getting sick of his laughter.

"There's got to be a way around this," Trish said mumbling to herself reading the contract over again.

"What was that, a way around this? Why, Trish, you are correct! This is me after all, I always have options and for you, I have two choices!," Eric began as he walked over to Trish pointing to the paragraph about her choices. He smiled wickedly as he continued, "Choice #1, Join Evolution or Choice #2, you can be removed from the WWE."

Trish's heart sank as she heard this. She looked around the room for help, but instead was met with evil leers. The blonde did for a second think she saw some concern in Randy's eyes, but decided she must have been mistaken for what she thought she saw was soon replaced with a smirk like the rest of Evolution.

Trish breathed hard. She didn't know what to do and just as she was about to sit down to think she heard a knock. Everyone in the room turned their attention toward the door.

"Trish, hey are you in there? The door is locked! Trish?" Trish heard her redheaded friend yell from outside the door.

"Yeah, I'm in here, Lita."

"Trish, it's been 30 minutes, are you ready yet? And why is the door locked?" Lita questioned playing with the doorknob. Trish looked up to meet Bischoff's eyes. He was just smirking.

"I."

"Trish, are you okay? Open the door!"

"Well go on, Trish, open the door," Bischoff said with a chuckle in his voice. Trish walked to the door, unlocking it and allowing Lita into the room.

"Trish, what have you been doing? You're still in your towel?" Lita questioned unaware of Evolution and Bischoff. She finally looked away from Trish and around the room. She jumped backwards as she noticed the five men in the room.

"Well hello, Lita, so glad you could join us," Eric said with another chuckle in his voice.

"What's going on in here?!" Lita demanded obviously worried for her friend. Lita looked over to her friend once more and noticed her distressed state and that she was staring at something in her hand. The redhead quickly walked over to Trish, took the piece of paper from her hand, and began reading. A shocked expression appeared on Lita's face as she continued to read the piece of paper.

"So what do you think, Lita?" Bischoff asked a smirk appearing on his face.

"What is this, Bischoff?" Lita demanded once more walking up in front of him. She dangled the contract in front of his face. Trish looked up as she heard Evolution's laughter behind Bischoff.

"I think you know very well what that is."

"What are you playing now, Bischoff?"

"I'm not playing anything."

"Bullshit."

"Lita, if anything, you shouldn't be in my face, you should be worrying about yourself.I mean your friend," Bischoff said laughing as his phone began to ring. He answered it and then turned back towards Trish, "You have until tomorrow morning at 10 to make your decision. Have a nice night, ladies!"

And with that Bischoff left leaving Evolution with an angry Lita and upset Trish. Randy and Ric stood up from the couch they had been sitting on the entire duration of the conversation while Batista walked towards the door.

"Don't worry, Trish, we're going to take good care of you," HHH said walking up to Trish and smirking.

"We know how to take care of the ladies," Batista said from over at the door laughing. Trish didn't say anything, she only watched as Evolution finally disappeared from the room. She sighed, slowly sitting down on the bench behind her and placed her head in her hands. Lita walked behind her placing a hand on her back, "It'll be okay, Trish."

"What am I going to do, Lita? I can't be with Evolution. I can't stand them- but I can't lose my job. I love my job, this is my life!" Trish looked up into her friend's eyes. Lita sighed as she sat down on the bench next to Trish.

"Bischoff." Lita mumbled letting out a breath and shaking her head.

Trish jumped from the bench stalking around the room, "He wants me gone. That's what this is about, he's always wanted me gone. Now that Stone Cold's gone this is his perfect opportunity. How could I have been so stupid and signed that contract! How did I not see that stupid paragraph! And how the hell did I not think something was fishy when Bischoff offered me, ME!! A title shot!"

"I'll admit, it was stupid, but don't blame yourself! We are talking about Bischoff here. He would have figured a way to put you in this position contract or not. You now just need to decide which is worse, Evolution or losing your job?" Lita brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and then continued, "Why don't you go get dressed, we'll go back to the hotel, order in something to eat, and talk this over."

"Good idea," Trish replied sighing as she went behind a wall to change. She returned a few seconds later in a pair of black workout pants, a blue baby- t, a pair of tennis shoes, and with her hair up.

"Lita, I think I know my decision."
