So yeah now we get to see how Steph and Shane react plus much more.
Stephanie and Shane: Oh hi Mik.WHAT?!?!
Shane: What do you mean brother?!
Stephanie: What do you mean sister?!
Mikhaila: (breathes out) He's my father. Look, if it's any consolation, I only found out a week and a half ago.
Stephanie: (glares) Shut up. (wheels on her father) Explain. NOW.
Shane: (taps his foot and folds his arms, staring his father down) What the hell is going on.
Vince: Well, for about six months before I found out Linda was pregnant with you, Stephanie, we separated. We were going through a rough patch and just needed time off to see if divorce would be a good idea or if there was something left. Well, I went to Chicago for a few months, and almost immediately, I met Melissa, Mikhaila's mom. We started talking, and soon it lead to more. I was happy for the first time in years. (sighs) But I found out your mother was pregnant with you, Stephanie. I knew I still loved her on some level, and I had a responsibility to the family and my work. I had to leave Melissa.
Stephanie: (growls) So you left your whore after you found out your WIFE was pregnant?
Mikhaila: Now listen, bitch, my mother was NOT a whore. She was a good woman, and I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't speak ill of the dead. It's not polite.
Stephanie: Who gives a.
Vince: STOP! LET ME CONTINUE! (everyone quiets down) Whenever I was in Chicago, though, I would still go see her. I missed her terribly. And, as you have probably figured out, we did a bit more than talk. I guess when Melissa found out she was pregnant, she knew how torn I would be, so she cut off contact with me. I haven't heard from her since. (smiles) Then last week in Chicago Mikhaila found me and told me about what happened. And I fucked it up because I was scared of what you two would say.
Shane: One question: Do you even love Mom?
Vince: Yes, I do, but I also loved Melissa. I know you don't think it's possible to love two women, but it is. I'm just sorry I didn't get to see her before she died. I would've at least liked to see how her life was going.
Stephanie: (glaring at him) You sorry son of a bitch. You couldn't keep it in your pants for two fucking seconds could you?! You just ran away when things got rocky with mom and into the arms of some tart in Chicago! What were you thinking?! (wheels on Mikhaila) And you!!! What the hell are you doing? Do you even realize what your presence here is doing? What are you looking for? Money? A name? Why are you here?
Mikhaila: (trying to control her temper) I'm here to find out who I am. I've been asking my mother my whole life who my father was, but she wouldn't tell me until she thought I was ready, I was mature enough to understand the mechanics of what happened. I'm not saying it was the most noble thing to do, but fate led them to each other.
Shane: Fate's full of shit. I wondered where you were for those few months when I was little. If you were so concerned about your kids, why'd you leave me then?!
Vince: Like she said, it wasn't the most noble thing to do, but at the time I either had to leave or had to divorce. The time apart did both of us good. We understood each other better when we got back together. It was probably the best thing to happen.
Stephanie: How could you possibly think this is a good thing?! You've got a walking talking proof that you cheated on Mom!!! What the hell were you thinking!
Mikhaila: ALRIGHT! THAT'S IT! EVERYONE SHUT THE HELL UP! (everyone quiets and stares at her) Look, I didn't want to interrupt your fragile balance here. I haven't known for 24 fucking years who my father was, and I wanted to get to know him to see where I came from. You two are older than me. If my mother thought I could understand this and I'm younger, you two should have the good fucking sense to understand it as well, but apparently, you don't mature when you're spoiled for your entire childhood! Life isn't perfect and cheery. Get fucking used to it! You know where to find me. (turns and throws open the door, storming past someone she had seen earlier)
(Kat is wandering around backstage and sees Amy again)
Amy: Hey glad your still here. Come on I'll introduce you to all the divas, there are quite a few of us now.
Kat: It's about damn time.
Amy: Hey everyone this is Kat, Kat, this is Trish, Stacey, Gail, Nora and Torrie.
Trish: Hey are you new working here?
Kat: Me, no Amy didn't fully explain, I'm Kat Nash, I'm Kevin's daughter.
Stacey: I never knew that Kevin had a fully grown kid.
Kat: Yep.
Nora: How old are you anyway.
Kat: 19.
Trish: I may sound really stupid saying this but damn you're tall.
Kat: (raises her arms and eye brows) Hello, Kevin Nash's daughter.
Stacey: Well (playfully) I was getting tired of being the only one not 5'8 or under. So how do you know Amy?
Kat: Well, my mom died about 5 years ago and I traveled with my dad for a while and the Hardys were around then and Matt knew Amy so she would come around some times.
Amy: Speaking of that why did you stop traveling around with us?
Kat: Well I didn't know Kevin that well, it was weird being around him all the time all of a sudden. Neither one of us knew how to handle it. And I was 14, I was in 8th grade I missed my friends and my school, I missed the rest of my family. And my mom had just died it was hard seeing everyone getting hurt all the time.
Amy: (puts her arm around her) Well, I'm glad your back. (knock at the door) Come in.
Jeff: Hey ya'll
Matt: Hey girls. Hey sweetie. (walks over and kisses Amy. Kats face fell but only for a second and she hoped no one had noticed.)
Amy: Hey babe.
Kat: So you to finally wised up.
Amy: What are you talking about Chica?
Kat: Hello, I was 14 and I saw the sparks between you guys.
Matt: So, um, Kat are you seeing anyone?
Kat: No, not at the moment. I'm in between ass holes. (locks eyes with Matt) Still looking for the right guy I guess.
Matt: We'll any guy who would let you go is really stupid.
Amy: Ahahem, (clearing her throat)
Matt: Oh sorry Ames. So the 4 of us need to catch up on old times we should do something tomorrow.
Amy: Um, Matt I'm headed back to Miami tomorrow because I have a few days off remember, I haven't been home in a few months.
Jeff: And Beth is coming in tomorrow I haven't scene her in a week so yeah.
Amy: You two go have fun though.
Kat: Aright, I better get going, I need to ok traveling with you guys with Vince and I'm meeting my dad for dinner. Um, exactly where would Vince's office be?
Matt: Oh, I guess I can show you.
Kat: Thanks. (Kat walks to the door opens it and Matt puts his hand on her back to lead her out. They walk through the hall and a group of people come from the other direction and Matt grabs Kat's hand to lead her through them and they get to Vince's office.)
Matt: Well here we are. (looks down and sees he is still holding Kats hand) Oh, I, I, I'm sorry about that.
Kat: (blushing) It's ok. I'm just gonna go talk to Vince now.
Matt: Wait, what about tomorrow.
Kat: Yeah we could go do something that would be fun. I'm in room 512 of the same hotel you guys are staying in.
Matt: Ok I'll come by at like noon or something.
Kat: Cool see you then. (she goes to knock on the door and it is pulled open with full force in the other direction and the same girl that Kat almost ran into earlier pushed passed her and Matt looking incredibly angry)
Matt: Who the hell is that?
Kat: I don't know but I saw her walking around hear earlier and I almost ran into her then too.
Shane: Shut the god damn door.
Stephanie: (she gets up and walks to the door not turning her eyes from her father and goes to shut the door and turns and jumps when she sees Matt and Kat standing there.) Matt, um what are you doing here? And who is the chick?
Kat: Um, Stephanie, I'm Kat Kevin's daughter, I don't know if you remember me or not.
Stephanie: Of course, what do you want?
Vince: For god sakes let her in. You haven't scene her in 4 years and that's how you treat her? I taught you better than that Steph.
Stephanie: Don't Steph me dad.
Vince: Kat come in please.
Kat: Hi Mr. McMahon. I am off from college for the summer and I was just wondering if it was ok with you if I traveled with you guys so I can be with my dad but if this is a bad time I can come back.
Shane and Stephanie: Yes!
Vince: Don't be silly child, yeah I'll fill out the necessary paper work and make sure you have the necessary passes but you'll have to take care of your own housing. And I told you when you met me 5 years ago to call me Vince.
Kat: Thank you uh, Vince. I appreciate this very much. Um, who was that girl that left here just now, I know I haven't been around in a while but she looked familiar, now I think I figured out why. She's a McMahon isn't she? (Looks around to see that Stephanie and Shane are glaring at her) What? What did I say?
Vince: Nothing, you may just be a little too perceptive for your own good.
Kat: I'm sorry I didn't mean to.
Vince: It's ok Kat she is a McMahon.
Shane: She is not dad!
Kat: I'm just gonna go.
Vince: Kat there is just one more thing, we have a photo shoot in two days, under current circumstances we have some family issues to deal with and so I don't think Stephanie being gone for a couple of days is a very good idea at this point so we'll need some one to take her place. You can do it. Go shopping tomorrow and pick out some bathing suits and meet up at (writes on a piece of paper) this address at 9.
Kat: Vince I don't know anything about modeling! And I am not even a WWE diva why would you want me to take Stephanie's place.
Vince: I've already paid for 12 spots and I would be wasting a lot of money if I didn't have 12 girls there. And who knows your Nash's daughter maybe we can use you while you're here.
Kat: But I don't know anything about wrestling really.
Vince: Would you stop arguing with me! You will do this and I don't want any more discussion about it.
Kat: Yes sir, sorry sir. (gets up and leaves she is walking through the halls and happens to find Matt there. He sees the troubled look on her face.)
Matt: What? Did he say you couldn't come with us, that cold hearted.
Kat: No, no he didn't say I couldn't come with you guys. Apparently I am needed in a photo shoot for a couple of days starting in two days. I feel bad but were gonna need to do some shopping tomorrow Matt.
Matt: Oh I don't care, I go with Amy for these things all the time. What kind of a shoot is it.
Kat: Well, it's bathing suits.
Matt: (swallows the lump in his throat) Oh, ok.
Kat: I didn't really want to but Vince insisted. Bathing suits for my first shoot god how degrading. I guess it could be worse it could be lingerie.
Matt: Now that would be where I would have drawn the line with shopping.
Kat: Yeah we probably would have had a hard time explaining that one to Amy huh?
Matt: Weren't you supposed to meet Kevin?
Kat: Oh yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.
Matt: Bye.
Chapter something
(Mikhaila storms down the hallway, watching as people part for her. She finds a small offshoot hallway with a door and leans up against the wall, grumbling under her breath. She's about to pound the wall when someone walks up and grabs her arm)
Adam: Hey killer, what's going on?
Mikhaila: (turns and glares at him) What do you want?
Adam: (backs off) Whoa whoa whoa. I'm not here to judge or criticize. I'm just wondering what's up with you. You look beyond pissed.
Mikhaila: You could say that. (sighs and slides down the wall) What am I gonna do? I've probably just ruined the lives of, oh, 4 or 5 people. And all because I just wanted to find my father.
Adam: (sits down next to her, putting his arm around her shoulders) You didn't ruin their lives. You just shook them up a bit. You can't blame anything they're doing on yourself.
Mikhaila: (turns to him) How can I not? Before I came they were fine. Nobody cheated on anyone, no illegitimate children. Life was perfect. But I waltz on in and suddenly it's out that he cheated and I'm his daughter. How can this NOT be my fault?!
Adam: (sighs) Mikhaila, first, calm down. Letting all this get to you isn't going to help the problem. Second, please, stop blaming yourself. Vince wouldn't want you to blame yourself. He cares enough to have you come all the way out here. And third, Stephanie and Shane have always been a bit off about things. They've been spoiled, and they think the world's perfect. When shit happens to shake it, they're not exactly what I'd call polite or, you know, sane.
Mikhaila: Right. So my brother and sister hate me now because I interrupted their lives. Wonderful way to introduce me to the family. 'Hey guys, guess what? I'm your illegitimate sister! Group hug!'
Adam: (laughing) At least you've still got a sense of humor about it.
Mikhaila: (chuckling) It's better than being depressed or bitchy.
Adam: (nods) True true. Dear god, I've seen Stephanie on bad days. If you're anything like her, warn me beforehand not to move wrong.
Mikhaila: (laughs) Thanks for the mental note. So what're you doing down this hallway anyway? It's not like it's out where a lot of people would be.
Adam: (shrugs) I was walking by the office when you stormed out and I followed you here.
Mikhaila: Well thanks for following me. It's good to have a friend around here.
Adam: You're welcome. No how about you go introduce yourself to the rest of the divas?
Mikhaila: (smirks) Adam, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you were enjoying this bit of a turn up in the family. Seriously though, I don't want to tell this story a million times. I'd rather just get it out once and let it be. And I sure as HELL am not doing this alone.
Adam: Agreed. Probably not the easiest thing to explain. (stands up)
Mikhaila: (stands up with him) You'll be there right?
Adam: Of course. Why wouldn't I? (puts his hands on her shoulders and smiles) You'll need to see one friendly face won't you? (grabs her and messes with her hair) Besides, I need someone to mess with!
Mikhaila: (laughs and pushes back off him) Great. Now I'm a victim! If you're not careful I'll tell my dad! (giggles)
Adam: (scared) Um, let's not, please? I enjoy my job! Please!
Mikhaila: Oh dear god Adam, you're the only friend I have here. I wouldn't do something like that to you.
Adam: (grins) It must be because I'm so damn irresistible!
Mikhaila: (blushes and laughs nervously) Right.
Kat: (walks down toward where her fathers locker room is and sees that same girl again talking to Adam Copland. He was always really nice she remembered him from when she toured with the WWE before. She walked up to the two and threw her arms around Adam) Adam hi! It's been so long.
Adam: (shocked at the girl hugging him, he pushes away from her a little then realizes who it is) Kat! Oh my god what are you doing here?
Kat: Well I'm off for the summer and I thought I would take the time to travel with Kevin, I don't ever get to see him.
Adam: Sorry I didn't recognize you at first, last time I saw you, you had braces and acne and wore pony tails. (notices her pony tails and grabs one and tugs at it) I see some things don't change much.
Kat: (Now turning her attention to the girl standing next to Adam.) Hi, we keep running into each other around here. I'm Kat.
Mikhaila: Hi I'm Mikhalia. You know Adam?
Kat: Yeah, Kevin Nash is my father and I traveled with him for a while after my mom died a few years ago. It was fun but I missed my regular life and my dad and I didn't know each other very well so yeah it was more than a little weird.
Mikhaila: How ironic.
Kat: Oh yeah well I'm sure that you know all about how that can be having Vince as a father and all.
Mikhaila: (a look between shock and anger came over the young woman's face) How did you.
Kat: It's the eyes, you have Vince's eyes. And you actually do bear a striking resemblance to Stephanine. What? God that's the same look I got in Vince's office earlier today.
Mikhaila: Adam, I need to talk to her I'll see you later ok. (grabbing Kat's arm and pulling her to the nearest exit and sitting her quite forcefully down on the step) Where do you get off huh? Don't you know when to keep your mouth shut?
Kat: I should have known better than to mention that by the way Vince and Shane and Stephanie were acting, gods knows I know by now I don't want to piss of a McMahon.
Mikhaila: (dips her head down and lifts it running her hands through her hair) I am NOT a McMahon!
Kat: Well you sure sound like one.
Mikhalia: (sighs) Can I ask you something?
Kat: Sure.
Mikhalia: When your mom died, how did you get over it?
Kat: Well quite honestly I don't know if I am over it even know, I mean it's easier now of course but.why?
Mikhalia: Well, my mom died just not long ago and it seems like it turned my whole world upside down.
Kat: And let me guess, you finding out that Viney Mac is your dad is part of that.
Mikhalia: Yeah. He's fine but Shane and Stephanie, they didn't take it so well.
Kat: Well that's understandable.
Mikhalia: I don't know, as much as I'm glad I found him I have this feeling it's gonna be more trouble than it's worth.
Kat: Just give it some time, you did a pretty good job of turning their world upside down too. It's like it was with my dad. My mom left him when I was 5 because it was too hard on her to have him away all the time and he was hurt so bad he didn't want anything to do with her. I came to see him a few times but he would just cry and drink a lot, eventually I realized it was because of me so I stopped asking to see him and never bothered to call us because of mom so imagine his surprise when I show up at a show 9 years later and say hey dad mom died can I stay with you? Oh god it was a disaster. He was trying to make up for 14 years of parenting and went way overboard, at 15 you don't really need a father that's that part of you life where you transition into being friends and that's really hard to do when you don't know each other at all. After a year I went back and lived in my mothers house and he would come home when ever he could. And we get along pretty well now.
Mikhaila: You lived there by yourself?
Kat: Yeah for usually about 5 days a week. But my grandparents and a aunt and uncle lived in the same town so they kept an eye on me.
Mikhaila: Wow.
Kat: Yeah I got into a lot of shit that I probably shouldn't have, they don't call me the queen of mischief for nothing.
Mikhaila: I can only imagine. Our stories are remarkably similar.
Kat: It's pretty weird huh?
Mikhaila: It's getting kind of late so I'm gonna go, but I'm sure I'll be seeing you around. And no one else knows about me and Vince so please keep it quite.
Kat: Oh totally. Us motherless children have to stick together dude. (The two walk back inside and down the hall and Kat finally found her dads locker room. She knocks and opens it) Dad are you ready to.(walks in to find Kevin and Trish laying on the couch making out) I'll just be waiting for you in the parking lot.
Kevin: Kathryn it's not what it looks like.
Kat: (raises eye brow) So you weren't just making out with her?
Kevin: Ok, maybe it is what it looks like.
Kat: (now notices her dad has no shirt on and Trish's shirt is partially unbuttoned) Yeah I didn't mean to interrupt anything, dad if you wanna go out to dinner some other time I'll understand.
Kevin: No don't be silly.
Kat: Trish you are welcome to join us if you want.
Trish: I think we've had enough awkward moments for one day thanks. Another time ok.
Kat: Sure, Kevin I'll wait outside. (she leaves)
Kevin: Oh my god, that was probably the most embarrassing thing ever. (Puts his hand over his face)
Trish: You're not ashamed that you're with me are you.
Kevin: Oh honey of course not, that's just not something you want your kid to see ever.
Trish: (helps him put back on his shirt) You better go.
Kevin: I'll see you later ok. (kisses her softly on the lips) (Kevin leaves and finds Kat in the parking lot)
Kat: Sorry about that.
Kevin: No, I'm the sorry one.
Kat: So there's a restaurant right across the street do you want to go there?
Kevin: Sure. (They walk across the street and enter a restaurant with a very fancy Hawaiian décor) This is pretty cool.
Kat: Yep. (The hostess seats them after a while) So how have you been lately I haven't talked to you for a while?
Kevin: After what you just saw that's the only thing you can think of to ask me?
Kat: Kevin, dad, you don't owe me any explanation; I don't expect to have to answer to you for anything I do.
Kevin: But I want to.
Kat: I think it's a little late for the birds and bees talk dad.
Kevin: I wasn't going to talk about that.wait it is? No don't answer that. I was going to explain about Trish and I.
Kat: Don't, you are finally able to date again and I'm happy for you. Besides Trish seems like a nice person.
Kevin: (sighs) She's incredible. I don't know what I did with out her in my life.
Kat: Aaaawww dad that's so sweet. You sound like you really love her.
Kevin: I really do, which is why I think, I, may, ask her to marry me.
Kat: Wow. Well this presents a little bit of a problem.

*ears evil music* Oh another cliffhanger, aren't I the evil one. Consider this payback for all you other people who write clifehangers. Sorry Cat Lea Takersdarkone, I just had to do it because we have a lot more of the story written and I won't be doing it again for a while. Shout out also to xtremediva and youllneverknowme for reviewing. *hugs* I love you guys.
Stephanie and Shane: Oh hi Mik.WHAT?!?!
Shane: What do you mean brother?!
Stephanie: What do you mean sister?!

Kat: Hi Mr. McMahon. I am off from college for the summer and I was just wondering if it was ok with you if I traveled with you guys so I can be with my dad but if this is a bad time I can come back.
Shane and Stephanie: Yes!
Vince: Don't be silly child, yeah I'll fill out the necessary paper work and make sure you have the necessary passes but you'll have to take care of your own housing. And I told you when you met me 5 years ago to call me Vince.
Kat: Thank you uh, Vince. I appreciate this very much. Um, who was that girl that left here just now, I know I haven't been around in a while but she looked familiar, now I think I figured out why. She's a McMahon isn't she? (Looks around to see that Stephanie and Shane are glaring at her) What? What did I say?
Vince: Nothing, you may just be a little too perceptive for your own good.
Kat: I'm sorry I didn't mean to.
Vince: It's ok Kat she is a McMahon.
Shane: She is not dad!
Kat: I'm just gonna go.
Vince: Kat there is just one more thing, we have a photo shoot in two days, under current circumstances we have some family issues to deal with and so I don't think Stephanie being gone for a couple of days is a very good idea at this point so we'll need some one to take her place. You can do it. Go shopping tomorrow and pick out some bathing suits and meet up at (writes on a piece of paper) this address at 9.
Kat: Vince I don't know anything about modeling! And I am not even a WWE diva why would you want me to take Stephanie's place.
Vince: I've already paid for 12 spots and I would be wasting a lot of money if I didn't have 12 girls there. And who knows your Nash's daughter maybe we can use you while you're here.
Kat: But I don't know anything about wrestling really.
Vince: Would you stop arguing with me! You will do this and I don't want any more discussion about it.
Kat: Yes sir, sorry sir. (gets up and leaves she is walking through the halls and happens to find Matt there. He sees the troubled look on her face.)
Matt: What? Did he say you couldn't come with us, that cold hearted.
Kat: No, no he didn't say I couldn't come with you guys. Apparently I am needed in a photo shoot for a couple of days starting in two days. I feel bad but were gonna need to do some shopping tomorrow Matt.
Matt: Oh I don't care, I go with Amy for these things all the time. What kind of a shoot is it.
Kat: Well, it's bathing suits.
Matt: (swallows the lump in his throat) Oh, ok.
Kat: I didn't really want to but Vince insisted. Bathing suits for my first shoot god how degrading. I guess it could be worse it could be lingerie.
Matt: Now that would be where I would have drawn the line with shopping.
Kat: Yeah we probably would have had a hard time explaining that one to Amy huh?
Matt: Weren't you supposed to meet Kevin?
Kat: Oh yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.
Matt: Bye.
Chapter something
(Mikhaila storms down the hallway, watching as people part for her. She finds a small offshoot hallway with a door and leans up against the wall, grumbling under her breath. She's about to pound the wall when someone walks up and grabs her arm)
Adam: Hey killer, what's going on?
Mikhaila: (turns and glares at him) What do you want?
Adam: (backs off) Whoa whoa whoa. I'm not here to judge or criticize. I'm just wondering what's up with you. You look beyond pissed.
Mikhaila: You could say that. (sighs and slides down the wall) What am I gonna do? I've probably just ruined the lives of, oh, 4 or 5 people. And all because I just wanted to find my father.
Adam: (sits down next to her, putting his arm around her shoulders) You didn't ruin their lives. You just shook them up a bit. You can't blame anything they're doing on yourself.
Mikhaila: (turns to him) How can I not? Before I came they were fine. Nobody cheated on anyone, no illegitimate children. Life was perfect. But I waltz on in and suddenly it's out that he cheated and I'm his daughter. How can this NOT be my fault?!
Adam: (sighs) Mikhaila, first, calm down. Letting all this get to you isn't going to help the problem. Second, please, stop blaming yourself. Vince wouldn't want you to blame yourself. He cares enough to have you come all the way out here. And third, Stephanie and Shane have always been a bit off about things. They've been spoiled, and they think the world's perfect. When shit happens to shake it, they're not exactly what I'd call polite or, you know, sane.
Mikhaila: Right. So my brother and sister hate me now because I interrupted their lives. Wonderful way to introduce me to the family. 'Hey guys, guess what? I'm your illegitimate sister! Group hug!'
Adam: (laughing) At least you've still got a sense of humor about it.
Mikhaila: (chuckling) It's better than being depressed or bitchy.
Adam: (nods) True true. Dear god, I've seen Stephanie on bad days. If you're anything like her, warn me beforehand not to move wrong.
Mikhaila: (laughs) Thanks for the mental note. So what're you doing down this hallway anyway? It's not like it's out where a lot of people would be.
Adam: (shrugs) I was walking by the office when you stormed out and I followed you here.
Mikhaila: Well thanks for following me. It's good to have a friend around here.
Adam: You're welcome. No how about you go introduce yourself to the rest of the divas?
Mikhaila: (smirks) Adam, if I didn't know any better, I'd say you were enjoying this bit of a turn up in the family. Seriously though, I don't want to tell this story a million times. I'd rather just get it out once and let it be. And I sure as HELL am not doing this alone.
Adam: Agreed. Probably not the easiest thing to explain. (stands up)
Mikhaila: (stands up with him) You'll be there right?
Adam: Of course. Why wouldn't I? (puts his hands on her shoulders and smiles) You'll need to see one friendly face won't you? (grabs her and messes with her hair) Besides, I need someone to mess with!
Mikhaila: (laughs and pushes back off him) Great. Now I'm a victim! If you're not careful I'll tell my dad! (giggles)
Adam: (scared) Um, let's not, please? I enjoy my job! Please!
Mikhaila: Oh dear god Adam, you're the only friend I have here. I wouldn't do something like that to you.
Adam: (grins) It must be because I'm so damn irresistible!
Mikhaila: (blushes and laughs nervously) Right.
Kat: (walks down toward where her fathers locker room is and sees that same girl again talking to Adam Copland. He was always really nice she remembered him from when she toured with the WWE before. She walked up to the two and threw her arms around Adam) Adam hi! It's been so long.
Adam: (shocked at the girl hugging him, he pushes away from her a little then realizes who it is) Kat! Oh my god what are you doing here?
Kat: Well I'm off for the summer and I thought I would take the time to travel with Kevin, I don't ever get to see him.
Adam: Sorry I didn't recognize you at first, last time I saw you, you had braces and acne and wore pony tails. (notices her pony tails and grabs one and tugs at it) I see some things don't change much.
Kat: (Now turning her attention to the girl standing next to Adam.) Hi, we keep running into each other around here. I'm Kat.
Mikhaila: Hi I'm Mikhalia. You know Adam?
Kat: Yeah, Kevin Nash is my father and I traveled with him for a while after my mom died a few years ago. It was fun but I missed my regular life and my dad and I didn't know each other very well so yeah it was more than a little weird.
Mikhaila: How ironic.
Kat: Oh yeah well I'm sure that you know all about how that can be having Vince as a father and all.
Mikhaila: (a look between shock and anger came over the young woman's face) How did you.
Kat: It's the eyes, you have Vince's eyes. And you actually do bear a striking resemblance to Stephanine. What? God that's the same look I got in Vince's office earlier today.
Mikhaila: Adam, I need to talk to her I'll see you later ok. (grabbing Kat's arm and pulling her to the nearest exit and sitting her quite forcefully down on the step) Where do you get off huh? Don't you know when to keep your mouth shut?
Kat: I should have known better than to mention that by the way Vince and Shane and Stephanie were acting, gods knows I know by now I don't want to piss of a McMahon.
Mikhaila: (dips her head down and lifts it running her hands through her hair) I am NOT a McMahon!
Kat: Well you sure sound like one.
Mikhalia: (sighs) Can I ask you something?
Kat: Sure.
Mikhalia: When your mom died, how did you get over it?
Kat: Well quite honestly I don't know if I am over it even know, I mean it's easier now of course but.why?
Mikhalia: Well, my mom died just not long ago and it seems like it turned my whole world upside down.
Kat: And let me guess, you finding out that Viney Mac is your dad is part of that.
Mikhalia: Yeah. He's fine but Shane and Stephanie, they didn't take it so well.
Kat: Well that's understandable.
Mikhalia: I don't know, as much as I'm glad I found him I have this feeling it's gonna be more trouble than it's worth.
Kat: Just give it some time, you did a pretty good job of turning their world upside down too. It's like it was with my dad. My mom left him when I was 5 because it was too hard on her to have him away all the time and he was hurt so bad he didn't want anything to do with her. I came to see him a few times but he would just cry and drink a lot, eventually I realized it was because of me so I stopped asking to see him and never bothered to call us because of mom so imagine his surprise when I show up at a show 9 years later and say hey dad mom died can I stay with you? Oh god it was a disaster. He was trying to make up for 14 years of parenting and went way overboard, at 15 you don't really need a father that's that part of you life where you transition into being friends and that's really hard to do when you don't know each other at all. After a year I went back and lived in my mothers house and he would come home when ever he could. And we get along pretty well now.
Mikhaila: You lived there by yourself?
Kat: Yeah for usually about 5 days a week. But my grandparents and a aunt and uncle lived in the same town so they kept an eye on me.
Mikhaila: Wow.
Kat: Yeah I got into a lot of shit that I probably shouldn't have, they don't call me the queen of mischief for nothing.
Mikhaila: I can only imagine. Our stories are remarkably similar.
Kat: It's pretty weird huh?
Mikhaila: It's getting kind of late so I'm gonna go, but I'm sure I'll be seeing you around. And no one else knows about me and Vince so please keep it quite.
Kat: Oh totally. Us motherless children have to stick together dude. (The two walk back inside and down the hall and Kat finally found her dads locker room. She knocks and opens it) Dad are you ready to.(walks in to find Kevin and Trish laying on the couch making out) I'll just be waiting for you in the parking lot.
Kevin: Kathryn it's not what it looks like.
Kat: (raises eye brow) So you weren't just making out with her?
Kevin: Ok, maybe it is what it looks like.
Kat: (now notices her dad has no shirt on and Trish's shirt is partially unbuttoned) Yeah I didn't mean to interrupt anything, dad if you wanna go out to dinner some other time I'll understand.
Kevin: No don't be silly.
Kat: Trish you are welcome to join us if you want.
Trish: I think we've had enough awkward moments for one day thanks. Another time ok.
Kat: Sure, Kevin I'll wait outside. (she leaves)
Kevin: Oh my god, that was probably the most embarrassing thing ever. (Puts his hand over his face)
Trish: You're not ashamed that you're with me are you.
Kevin: Oh honey of course not, that's just not something you want your kid to see ever.
Trish: (helps him put back on his shirt) You better go.
Kevin: I'll see you later ok. (kisses her softly on the lips) (Kevin leaves and finds Kat in the parking lot)
Kat: Sorry about that.
Kevin: No, I'm the sorry one.
Kat: So there's a restaurant right across the street do you want to go there?
Kevin: Sure. (They walk across the street and enter a restaurant with a very fancy Hawaiian décor) This is pretty cool.
Kat: Yep. (The hostess seats them after a while) So how have you been lately I haven't talked to you for a while?
Kevin: After what you just saw that's the only thing you can think of to ask me?
Kat: Kevin, dad, you don't owe me any explanation; I don't expect to have to answer to you for anything I do.
Kevin: But I want to.
Kat: I think it's a little late for the birds and bees talk dad.
Kevin: I wasn't going to talk about that.wait it is? No don't answer that. I was going to explain about Trish and I.
Kat: Don't, you are finally able to date again and I'm happy for you. Besides Trish seems like a nice person.
Kevin: (sighs) She's incredible. I don't know what I did with out her in my life.
Kat: Aaaawww dad that's so sweet. You sound like you really love her.
Kevin: I really do, which is why I think, I, may, ask her to marry me.
Kat: Wow. Well this presents a little bit of a problem.
