Playing the Game
Bad Blood, Brooke's first pay-per-view, was starting and she was in her locker room…alone, when a knock came at the door and in walked Dave Batista. He sat down with a box of Band-Aids and smirked,
"Looks like you need some help." She smiled and grabbed a Band-Aid,
"Thanks." He nodded. After a few minutes of silence he said,
"You can talk to me ya know. I'm not with Evolution anymore."
She shrugged and said, "Yeah, well, I guess I'm not sure if I can trust you."
He raised an eyebrow and said, "Not trust me? The guy who didn't hit you with a chair…the guy who didn't-"
She started laughing and said, "I get it!"
Brooke checked the time then hurried and turned on the small TV to watch the recaps from last week. After they stopped playing she looked at Dave and said,
"Ouch…" He nodded and said,
"You should have watched the whole match."
She shrugged, "It wasn't too bad…plus you're giving me a massage after this show."
He smirked and said, "This to the guy you don't trust."
She shrugged, "Things change."
Triple H walked into Eric Bischoff's office with a cocky stride. He patted his title hanging on his shoulder and said,
"Bischoff…I have an idea for tonight."
Eric looked up and said in an exasperated tone, "What now Hunter?"
"I figure that there should be a title match," Hunter said while shrugging, "And I know who I want."
Eric shook his head and said, "He's already in a match tonight with Christian."
"I wasn't talking about Orton. I want to finish off Brooke James. And if you were smart…you'd give me that match and let me end her career." Eric rubbed the bridge of his nose, showing that he was getting a headache and said,
"You know what. I'll do it but don't count on it to happen again."
Brooke watched and grinned, Dave had left earlier, so, she walked out of her locker room and over to Bischoff's office. Once she was in, he growled and looked up,
"What?"
She smirked and said, "I decided to add to Hunter and my match."
"What do you want?"
"I want an anything goes match-Oh and still for the title." He rolled his eyes and said,
"I don't think so."
"Why, Hunter afraid of a challenge?" The door opened and in walked Triple H again,
"I'm not afraid of anything. Give her the match Bischoff…I'll show her who's king."
"Yeah, you will because you'll be the dead king and I'll be the new queen." She shot back. Eric rolled his eyes and said,
"Fine. Now get out of my office! I don't want to hear from you two for the rest of the night."
When Brooke reached her locker room, she had a huge grin playing on her face. Tonight would more then likely be her last chance for the title and it was going to be good. When she walked inside, Randy was standing there with a smirk and said,
"Look who's getting what she wants." She laughed and said,
"Ya know…I'll be out numbered out there." He nodded. "How about you have my back tonight. You don't have to come out with me but make sure Ric doesn't pull anything. I want this to be fair."
He chuckled and said, "I knew you'd learn to respect me." She rolled her eyes and said,
"Who said anything about respect?"
"Hey you're the one that said you know what you want. And we all know its me and the title."
"Who's we?" She asked while raising an eyebrow. He shook his head and said,
"Just wait…you'll see how irresistible I am." She laughed and started walking to the bathroom while saying,
"I already do." She shut the door and was going to change into a pair of tight faded jeans that had man made holes in them and a black halter top with a white skull on it. She walked back up and looked in the mirror to fix her hair and makeup. She sat down and Randy handed her a small box.
"What's this?" She asked. He shrugged and said,
"Just open it." She opened it and picked up a pair of brass knuckles. She laughed and said,
"Perfect." He nodded and said,
"I thought so too."
The time finally came for the main event of the night. Randy was just walking back from his match with Christian, which he won. He walked into Brooke's locker room and saw her pacing around.
"Don't worry so much." He said and put his arms around her. "You'll be fine." She nodded and said,
"Well, wish me luck." He gave her a kiss and said,
"Good luck." She walked out of the locker room and down the hall to meet her destiny.
Brooke headed out to the ring, first, on her theme song. She held the women's title up in the air proudly but had her standards set even higher. She gave the title to a stagehand and waited for Triple H to walk out with the title and Ric Flair.
Hunter made it into the ring and shoved the title in her face with a cocky smile playing on his lips. She rolled her eyes and mouthed, 'Mine.' The ref took the title and held it in the air as he had done the past three weeks. The ref rang the bell and the match started.
Ric got out of the ring and started chanting for The Game. Brooke and Hunter locked up for only a second before she grabbed the back of his neck and slammed his face to the mat for a Mat Slam. She then performed a leg drop to him and got back up. He was just barely getting up to his feet when she went right for a Neckbreaker Drop. Hunter was on the ground holding his neck when she taunted him with throwing her arms in the air for a crowd reaction. Ric got up on the apron and started yelling at her. She ran to him and clotheslined him off the apron but once she turned around Hunter was to his feet.
He grabbed her hair and slammed her face to the mat. He yelled at Ric to grab a chair, deciding that she had had enough fun. Once he grabbed the chair from Ric, Brooke got up and performed a bulldog causing Hunter's face to land on the chair. Ric was now upset with this and Brooke rolled him over and grabbed the chair. She threw it out of the ring and turned around to Hunter. She went to the top turnbuckle and waited for him to start getting to his feet before performing Dragonrana pin, She jumped off the top rope and while in the flip she grabbed the back of his neck and flipped him into a pin. He kicked out on a 2 count.
Brooke stood up and watched him stumble around, that chair shot he had taken was impairing him. She tried a rolling clutch pin but he kicked out after 2 again. Getting frustrated, she looked at the crowd. Hunter got to his feet quickly and threw her to the ropes. But she didn't rebound back to him and when he was coming for her, she turned around and grabbed the top rope and jumped up in the air and grabbed his neck, with her legs, to slam him to the mat for the Head Scissors Takedown. She turned back around and leg dropped to his neck. She turned around, again, to see Ric on the apron. She was about to clothesline him off but he ducked and opened the rope so she would land on the black top outside the ring.
Ric started stomping on her and the ref was trying to get him away from her but Hunter threw him out of the ring. Brooke was now in danger of both men coming after her. She rolled out of the way of a chair shot and ran to slide into the ring. She looked at the two and yelled,
"What? Can't take me one on one Hunter?" He growled and climbed into the ring. She had him set up for a cross body slam, she ran to him and slammed him to the mat with her whole body. She went for a cover but the ref wasn't in the ring. He was recovering outside the ring. Brooke growled and climbed out of the ring and slid the ref into the ring again. She was walking back to Hunter when he punched her in the stomach. He then grabbed her head and was forcing her into a Pedigree, She was trying to get out of it but couldn't. So, finally, she thrusted her head up to knock into his goods before he could finish the move.
Hunter fell to the ground while holding himself and she kicked him in the chest. She hurried and grabbed his hair and slam his head to the mat. She then grabbed his shoulders and set him up for a Surfboard, she grabbed his arms while jamming her knee into the middle of his back. She watched his face turn to pain on the screen. A new ref had now walked over and asked Hunter if he was okay. After a couple minutes of this move, Brooke let go and got to her feet. She watched him get to his feet with help from the ropes. Ric slid him the title and he turned around to slam it into Brooke but she saw it coming and ducked it. She kicked him in the stomach and grabbed it. She slammed it into his face and dropped it as he did to the mat. She went for a cover when she knew he was out.
The ref was about to go to the 3 count when Ric broke the count. By this time, Randy was now heading to the ring. He tossed Ric out of the ring and they started fighting as the ref went back to the count. 1...2...Hunter kicked out. She groaned and saw him reaching for the title again. She kicked it away from him and grabbed it. She turned around and looked at him and the title. She dropped it and watched blood fall from his face. She shook her head and grabbed his hair again and slammed him to the mat with a DDT. She knew he couldn't take much more of this and put him into a sleeper hold. Just as the ref was about to finish the match, Hunter started to regain his momentum so she let go of him.
When Brooke wasn't watching him, he grabbed the title and was about to turn around and hit her with it, again. But she dropkicked him just in time. The title had knocked back and he fell to the ground, no longer moving. She went for a cover, 1...2...3. Her face dropped in shock.
"Your winner and New World Heavyweight Champion…Brooke James!" Lillian yelled into the microphone. She took the title from the ref and held it to her chest. She couldn't believe what she had achieved.
"She did it JR! I cant believe this! We have a women for our Champion!"
"We have a woman for two titles King. This is going to be an interesting rein."
She turned to see Randy getting into the ring. He smirked and clapped at the same time. She smiled back and then turned back to Hunter. After a long look at him, she turned back to Randy, he prepped her up for the RKO. Dave ran into the ring and speared Randy just in time. Brooke stumbled away and watched Batista perform his finisher, The Batista Bomb.
Brooke backed away some more and realized what had just happened. She was being betrayed by the one person she thought she could trust. Dave was now getting out of the ring. She was just turning around to leave as well but stopped and turned back to Randy. She pulled out the brass knuckles Randy had given her before her match and laid them on his chest. She got out of the ring to hold up the her new title when everything was becoming clear, trust no one in the WWE and take everything.
A/N: The end. A woman finally achieved winning the World Heavyweight Championship but at a cost and sadly, when you become a champion like that…you truly can trust no one. So what did you think? A shock or were you expecting it?
