(A/N: I am SOOOOOO sorry about being almost, geez a month behind! Ah. But, you would not believe the amout of homework, whew. But hey, look, I updated. Aren't you proud of me? lol, well I was more focused on finishing my other story, and so now with that one ending now I can focus my time completely on this one. It's been a while, I almost forgot the storyline for this one, but don't worry, it's back up and hopefully I'll be able to update a lot more recently!)

Chris Jericho hovered in the air, his jaw dropped in awe. His eyebrows lowered slightly into almost a frown of confusion at The Rock's glance back. Jamie Noble growled, his fist clenched as he took a step forwards towards The Rock, "Now listen here you, I'm in charge of this operation here, so you obey my command! Got it?"

Rocky had heard just about enough, he turned back to the shorter man, "No. You listen here." Jamie took a step back as The Rock confronted him. "I'M the one in charge, I'M in command, and YOU obey me! GOT IT?"

Jamie tried desperately hard not to shake, "No, no I don't got it mate!"

Rock frowned, "Then it's time to re-educate you, in the manners of might makes right!" He raised a hand. "HA!" It glowed and he shot a blast. Jamie screamed as it hit him, blowing up and ending his life like that.

Chris gasped, "Oh whoa!"

Nidia hid behind The Big Show. Rocky looked at where Jamie Noble had once stood and smirked, nothing was left but a small smoking crater in the ground. Nidia looked out from behind Big Show and gasped when she saw nothing but a thin tail of smoke. Rock smirked, "Now, do YOU both got it?"

"You." Nidia was boiling with rage. "You, you killed him! You killed my fiance! Why you!" Rock frowned as Nidia ran at him screaming, he grabbed her by the head and picked her up as she flogged the air between them.

He brought her close to his face, "I guess I'll take pity on you, after all, I am a mercenary, and I'll grant you this, a soon to be reuniting between you and your boyfriend!"

"No, stop, please!" Nidia screamed.

"Your fight is with me Rocky, let the girl go!"

The Big Show looked up to see Chris Jericho powering up, growling yet panting because of the strain fighting was starting to bring on his illness. Rock looked over his shoulder again and saw Chris powering up a blast in his hand, "You again."

Chris clenched his teeth, "You're killing your own comrades."

"Comrade? Ha! More like traitors, they refuse to follow their leader."

Chris was confused, "Leader?"

"William Regal named me the leader of this operation, nobody knew of my alliance with them but himself... and maybe that weird little kid he kept around." Rock threw down Nidia, she cried out in pain.

Big Show ran over to her, "Nidia. Are you ok?"

Rock continued, "Nobody knew of my alliance, and nobody knew..." Waves of energy began to emit from him. "I too, possessed powers."

Chris's eyes shook with shock, "No."

"So, make your choice Chris. Run away like this is none of your business, and die an attempted hero just like these vile traitors." Rock scowled down at Nidia and Big Show.

Chris growled and began to power up, "The likes of you... is what makes me sick! HA!" Rocky furrowed his brow as he measured Chris's power level in his head. Chris got in the stances for the attack, "Ka, Me, Ha, Me...." He and Rocky stared each other dead in the eye. "HA!" Chris fired the beam. As it grew closer to Rocky, Nidia and Big Show's anticipation grew. It was about to hit when Rock lifted his hand and swatted it away as if it were a fly. Chris gasped. "No, no way!"

"Let me show you how it's done." Rock jumped back and got into a stance. "Kamehame- HA!" He shot a larger blast. Chris cried out as it hit him, exploding brightly. Nidia and Big Show had to shield their eyes. Rocky laughed as the smoke cleared. "Hm, haha... hu?" He growled when he saw Chris's body twitch on the ground.

"How, how could you... ah!" Chris groaned and Rock came over and looked down at him. "How could you know, the Kamehameha wave?"

Rocky smirked, "I've been watching you all, everyone. Not only do I know your and Edge's pathetic little move, but everybody else's as well."

"What? Ah!" Chris began to cough as his vision blurred.

"Hm." Rock turned to go. "Next time you want to pick a fight kid, make sure you're a hundred percent healthy." He stopped as he passed Nidia and Big Show. "This isn't over." He jumped up into the air and flew off.

Big Show stood up, "Don't worry Nidia, I'll get him." He looked down at her, she was still so crestfallen at the demise of her boyfriend. "Nidia, are you going to be ok?"

"He killed him Show" She sniffed. "He killed Jamie." She sobbed.

Chris struggled to keep conscious, he wanted to sit up but he was drained. Just then the trio could feel three power levels, two coming from one direction and one lone smaller one from another. Eddie Guerrero and Jeff Hardy were the duo and Crash was the one flying solo. Crash make it to the scene first, he jerked to a stop when he saw Chris and the two evil ones.

"Chris!" Jumping to the conclusion that the two had attacked him, he rushed to his aid. "Don't worry buddy, I'm here for you." He glared over at Nidia and Big Show.

"No wait, Crash don't..." Chris struggled to talk, his eyes shut in pain.

Crash looked down at him cockeyed, "Chris, are you sure you don't have a fever or something?" He felt his forehead. "You just told me to not waste these two."

"No, no, I know what I said man. Yes, leave them. It was, The Rock."

"Rocky?" Now Crash was even more confused.

"So."

"Hu?" Crash and Chris turned at the voice.

Eddie stood with his arms folded, "Mr. Hollywood finally comes a crawling home."

"I knew it." They turned to Jeff. Jeff looked over at Big Show. "Show, tell me. What happened to Jamie and Rocky?"

"They got into a scuffle and Rocky annihilated him like that." Show snapped his fingers.

Nidia sobbed, "Please, please kill him, he has to pay for what he's done."

Crash looked softly at her, "I'm so sorry, he was your boyfriend wasn't he?"

She sniffed and nodded, "Uh hu."

Crash growled, "How dare he do such a thing, don't worry Nidia, we'll take care of The Rock."

"No, you don't understand!" Jeff cried. "Rocky is more powerful than any and all of us, we'd need some sort of super awesome power in order to take him out."

"And I don't suppose that power would be me, would it?"

Everyone froze and turned towards this new voice. Eddie frowned and turned around. Edge stood dramatically on a rock, the wind blowing through his hair. "Edge?"

He smirked, "Hi."

"Edge, is back?" Crash was overjoyed, he rushed over to him. "Edge! Hey man, it's been so long, how are you?"

"Yes, it has been a long time hasn't it, we'll it's good to be back." Edge looked over at Chris who wanted very much to get up and rush over to him but was too weak and battered to even sit up. Edge's face softened as he left Crash's side and walked over to his best friend. He bent down. "Hey."

Chris was smiling, "Hey. Edge. Haha. Ugh..."

"What happened to you?" He looked him up and down and frowned. "The Chris Jericho I knew wouldn't get beat up so badly."

Chris coughed, "The Chris Jericho you knew would also get sick so badly."

Edge frowned and brushed the bangs off of his friend's forehead, "You're in very bad shape my friend, why did you not recover before coming into battle?"

"Because, Edge... because that's, what you would've done." Chris closed his eyes. Edge blinked down at him.

Crash became nervous, "Edge, is he...?"

"He's ok, he's just exhausted. Get him back to the hotel." Edge stood up.

"Actually." Jeff spoke up. "He came from the hospital."

"The hospital!" Edge whirled around and froze in shock. "Wait a sec... you're, aren't you Jeff Hardy?"

Jeff smirked, "I'm glad you seem to remember me."

Edge shook his head then rubbed his shaggy hair, "Wow, I really have missed a lot."

"Well come on, I'll fill you in while we fly."

"While WE, fly?" Edge blinked. Soon they were all flying and Edge had been completely filled in about all that had gone on during his absence. "Wow, I took one hell of a time to take a vacation!"

"Don't worry about it Edge." Jeff replied.

Edge looked over at Chris in Crash's arms, "I feel bad not being there for him when he needed it."

"Don't be. Chris should be dead by now, but he's a tough guy, a true fighter, he's got a power deep within him and it's keeping him going through this all."

"Hey Jeff." Edge wanted something cleared up. "If Nidia and Big Show are the bad guys, then why did we let them go?"

"According to my sight, they were to be killed along with Rocky, but they weren't."

"So?"

"So, the future has changed so much from the one I first saw, we can't jump to any sort of conclusion or take any risk that might jeopardize our well being."

"We should've killed them then." They all turned to Eddie. "Why risk it, we could kill them no problem, but no, the kitty cat kid over there had to go cough up a fur ball and now we have to rush him back to the vet for a suppository."

Crash gave him one weird look, "Kitty cat kid? What the HELL are you talking about!"

"No, for once I have to agree with Eddie. We should've killed them, who knows who they might go after next." Edge stooped when Jeff's phone rang.

Jeff pulled it out of his pocket and answered it, "Kurt, what's up?"

"Chris is gone, is he with you?"

"Yea, we got him."

Kurt sighed with relief, "Oh man, that's such great news, he had us so worried."

"Kurt, are you and Dan still over at the hospital."

"Yes."

"Ok, change of plans, go back to the hotel."

"The hotel?" Crash overheard. "But what about Chris?"

"He'll do fine, we need to come up with a new game plan."

Edge nodded, "I agree."

"Whoa, whoa!" Jeff turned back to the phone at Kurt's voice. "Was that Edge I just heard?"

Jeff smirked, "Yup. Don't worry guys, come back to the hotel and we'll explain everything." He closed the cell phone as they all headed back to the hotel.
