hello boys and gurls! well, this is it. Wrestlemania 19. of course, we all know what happened, but this is my little spin on it. Have fun! oh and Mel performs the WM theme "Crack Addict" with limp Bizkit. agian, my little spin. Again, i don't own the wrestlers or the song Crack Addict. that belongs to Limp Bizkit (who i still love by the way) i originally had the lyrics in a diff color, but of course, FF won't do that, so i put the lyrics in bold. this chapter has also been altered to fit the new title of the story.


Chapter 20

The Showcase of the Immortals

Millions of people were watching at home, 54,097 people filled the arena; hundreds of WWE personnel were making sure everything was running smoothly, the lights, the fireworks and the sound. 25 WWE superstars were about to prove why they were here, in this business. It was the culmination of everything they had ever worked for. And although the building itself was packed, there was an eerie silence that fell upon the superstars backstage. Because each and every one of them knew that they're childhood dreams were about to come true. Wrestlemania was their chance to live…forever.

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe that Ric Flair gave up stripping to become a wrestler!" Stephanie McMahon said out loud. Melanie looked up from lacing up her boots.

" Same job, different outfit." She said. Stephanie laughed.

"Are you ready for tonight?" She asked. Melanie sighed.

"No, but do I really have a choice?" She looked down at her new boots. They were the ones Brock had given to her with the symbol on the side. She admired them for a moment and continued to tie her boot. Brock came into the room.

"Hey Mel." He said calmly. She nodded and looked at Stephanie.

"Ok, fine. I'll leave. But don't take too long." She said. Stephanie closed the door behind her and left the two alone.

"Nervous?" Melanie asked.

"Yeah." Brock said quietly.

"Scared?"

"A little."

"Constipated?"

"Ye- no. Well, a little." Brock said. Melanie nodded in agreement.

"I think it comes with the nerves." She said light-heartedly. Brock smiled.

"You're gonna do just fine Mel. Just remember the training and…and you'll do just fine." He said nervously. Melanie exhaled and took Brock's hand in her own.

" So will you. Kurt's gonna pay. You got this one." She said confidently. "You'll set a higher standard for Wrestlemania, being the main event and all. It's gonna be a classic." Brock smiled sadly.

"Maybe."


Melanie had never seen so many people in her life. There were several levels that seemed to go up infinitely. They were all on their feet, chanting and screaming. It was almost deafening. Melanie clutched the microphone in her hand for dear life. For a second time, the spotlight was on her. How was she supposed to wrestle when she couldn't even muster up the courage to sing? Melanie looked down the ramp. It was about 10 times longer than it normally was on Smackdown, or Raw. The band behind her was setting up. What was she supposed to do until they were ready? She inhaled deeply and congregated a smile. The crowd cheered at her modesty as the lead singer of the band tapped her on the shoulder.

"We're ready to rock when you are." He said. Melanie nodded and faced the crowd again. The music started.

3... 2... 1!

Here we go again

Right now

Let's go

Me and you

Toe to toe

So we can rock

We can roll

You see its one for the trouble

And two for the time

One for the trouble

And two for the time

Come on y'all and let's rock

Now I'm gonna full up my lungs with some butane

Turn the mic into a flame

Damn that shit's hot. Melanie gasped. She forgot that there was cursing in the song. But the people didn't care. They were throwing their hands in the air and singing along to the official theme song of Wrestlemania 19. Melanie shrugged and continued.

Super heavy

Build like a Chevy

And I ain't really mad at the hey hey

Round two

You ready for a break

You keep on talking I'm gonna

Break you up something like this

Full throttle

Better be prepared

Coming with the kick and the snare

Apocalypse now

Whose talking shit now?

Gimmie the countdown

3… 2… 1!

Here we go again

Right now

Let's go

Me and you

Toe to toe

So we can rock

We can roll Melanie and Fred Durst's voice echoed through out the arena. Fred took the microphone out of the stand and went over to one side of the crowd.

"Wrestlmania…are you ready?" He asked. The fans cheered. Melanie came up behind him.

"Wrestlemania?" She asked. She looked at Fred as he nodded. They spoke in unison.

" ARE YOU REDEHHHH!"

I want to throw you

A tainted face right now

Not really sure that

Not really sure I know how

Gonna try

Gonna try

Give you piece of my mind

Gonna try

Gonna try

And I hope you don't mind

I'm a crack addict

That's right I'm a crack addict

You heard me I'm a crack addict

I'm addicted to crack it must cause static. Melanie lost control of herself. She jumped around, microphone in hand to the rhythm of the song.

It's time to panic

I'm addicted to crack it must cause static

It's time to panic

I'm addicted to crack it must cause static

Here we go again

Right now

Let's go

Me and you

Toe to toe

So we can rock

We can roll

The guitar's last chords echoed through out the arena as Melanie and Limp Bizkit took a bow and left the stage as the next match was announced.

"That was great Melanie." Brock said after she came back into the locker room. He had just finished doing some push ups and was getting psyched for his match. Melanie nodded and took a seat on the other side of the room. Brock looked up from his exercise to find Melanie staring at him.

"What?" He asked. Melanie shrugged.

"Nothing, just thinking." She said simply. Brock nodded. He really didn't mind her looking at him. Brock could stare at her all day. She was the only reason he wanted to get up in the morning. She had made things so much better for him, opened up a new door. Since they started going out, things were different, better even. The sun shined just a little brighter, and Brock felt happier more often. Nothing could ever change his mind about how he felt about her. She could have given up on him several times, but she never left him…not once.

Never knew I could feel like this

Like I've never seen the sky before

Want to vanish inside your kiss

Every day I love you more and more

Seasons may change, winter to spring

But I love you until the end of time

As Brock continued with his pre match workout, Mel suddenly felt exhausted and overwhelmed. She was thinking about the past several months of her life. Getting a new job, finding love, finding herself…it just all seemed to build up to this one event. She looked at Brock, trying to imagine life without him. She failed. It scared her too much to think about it. Melanie knew that there wasn't anything their love couldn't do. There wasn't a thing that Brock could do to her that would make her change her mind. Now that he was in her life, everything else just seemed, irrelevant. For the first time, Mel's life was so close to perfect.

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace

Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste

It all revolves around you

Storm clouds may gather,

And stars may collide

But I love you

Until the end of time

"Mel?" Brock asked. She looked up. Melanie had been lost in a daze for several minutes.

"Yeah Brock?" She asked. He smiled.

"You're everything to me. You're the only thing I need right now. And…even if I don't win the title tonight, I can still walk away from that ring knowing that you'll be here when I get back." He said. Melanie gave a sad smile.

"You will win tonight. I'm so proud of you Brock." Melanie said. Brock made his way over to her and kissed her lips. Mel broke the kiss and looked at the time. Her match was up next.

"Good luck. I love you." Brock said quietly. Melanie nodded and headed toward the gorilla position.
