They soon pull apart and Liz stares up at Shane in confusion. She opens her mouth to speak, but he puts a finger to her lips to silence her. He gazes into the fire for a moment and then speaks.

"Lets go to the hotel," Shane states.

She nods and he wraps his arm around her shoulder. They walk past Randy and Shane nods at him. They gather their things and head back to the hotel. When they reach the hotel, Liz grabs both their bags and follows Shane to the room. He pushes the door open and allows her to go in. She sets their bags down and looks at Shane.

"Are you ok?" She asks quietly.

"Just a headache, nothing major," Shane answers.

She nods and puts their bags away. Shane walks in his room following Liz and he stands there watching her. Liz turns around and sees him standing there. He strides over to her and is extremely close to her. Liz looks up into his eyes and he leans closer to her face.

"Thank you," he whispers, giving her a quick, but sweet kiss on her lips.

He moves away and she leaves the room and heads to her own. As soon as she lies down, her cell phone rings. Liz groans and grabs it.

"Yeah?" Liz asks, lying back down.

"I'm not dead. I'm coming after you!" A deep, sadistic voice says before hanging up.

Liz bolts out of her room and straight into Shane's. She slams open the door causing Shane to sit up and stare at her. She runs to the bed and flings herself into his waiting arms.

"What's wrong?" He asks quietly.

"Glen's not dead. He said he's coming after me!" Liz cries into his body.

"But I kicked him in," Shane states.

"What are we going to do?" Liz asks, pulling away.

"I'll take care of it. The doors are locked, you're safe," Shane explains running his hand down her cheek, "go get some sleep."

Liz nods and heads back for her room, Shane sighs and lies back down. Soon he falls into a deep sleep. He starts to dream that he's outside a huge house and he hears a sharp scream. He runs into the house and finds himself in a dungeon like room. Shane sees Glen standing in front of someone. Glen moves back and Shane sees Liz chained to the wall, bleeding profusely. Suddenly, the shadows grab at him and Glen flashes a knife for Shane to see. Then he heads back to Liz. Shane struggles with the shadows as Glen swings the knife towards Liz as Shane finally gets away as Liz screams causing Shane to sit up, sweating.

"Holy shit," Shane states, getting out of bed and heading into his bathroom.

After he gets cleaned up, he glances at the clock.

"5:25, great," Shane mumbles, opening the door and heading out to the kitchen.

On the way, he stops by Liz's room. He sighs and continues his journey to the kitchen. He pours himself a glass of orange juice and sits down, sighing. He flips through the channels but turns it off after seeing nothing was on. He sighs and stands up.

"What am I going to do?" Shane mumbles to himself.

"About what?" Liz asks, causing Shane to look up.

"What are you doing awake? I thought you were sleeping," Shane says, walking over to her.

"I heard you out here," Liz replies, gazing into his eyes.

"Did I wake you up?" Shane asks, moving very close to her.

"It's alright, I don't mind," Liz whispers, not breaking her gaze.

"But I do," Shane states, as his arm slips around her waist.

Neither of them moves; they just stare into each other's eyes. Suddenly, the phone rings and Liz looks way. She silently moves to get the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey Grace!" Paul says, chuckling.

"Ugh! Shut it, Paul. You want to talk to Shane?"

"Yeah, If I could Grace."

Liz rolls her eyes and hands the phone to Shane.

"Hey Paul."

"Hey Shane. Did you hear?"

"Hear what?"

"Well when they put out the flames, Glen wasn't in there."

Shane goes wide-eyed and Liz shoots him a confused look.

"Shane, you there?"

"Huh? Yeah, sorry. Paul, I got to go."

"Sure, bye Shane."

Liz stands there staring at Shane. He looks up and forces a smile.

"Something wrong?" Liz asks.

"Nope," Shane lies, "come on, lets go get breakfast."

Liz shrugs and they go to change. When they're both ready, they head downstairs to get some food. Shane wraps an arm around Liz's waist protectively as soon as they step out of the elevator. They walk into the room to see very few wrestlers eating. They grab some food and sit down at one of the tables in the middle.

"What did Paul want?" Liz asks, taking a bite of her toast.

"Not much, just some business things," Shane states, not wanting to tell Liz what Paul really said.

"Oh, Ok," Liz says, knowing something was wrong.

They eat in silence until Liz sees the members of Evolution walk in. Randy notices the two and points it out to the rest. They walk over and join them. Paul sits down next to Shane and leans over.

"Did you tell her?" He whispers to him.

"I don't want her to worry," Shane whispers back.

Paul nods and glances at Liz, who's laughing at one of Randy's jokes.

"Looks like you've got competition," Paul states, nodding towards the duo.

Shane stares at them and Liz glances up and smiles. He returns it and continues to eat, but makes a mental note to watch Liz and Randy.

~Raw 9-1-03~

Shane and Liz walk into the arena in Lafayette, Louisiana, only to be stopped by Terri.

"Shane, the images at the end of last weeks show were disturbing. But when the flames were extinguished, Kane wasn't in the dumpster," Terri explains as Liz goes wide-eyed.

Shane just walks off and Liz stumbles after him. They walk in silence until Liz speaks up.

"Shane?" Liz states.

"Yeah Lizzie?" Shane replies.

"Did you know about Glen?" She asks quietly.

"Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Liz demands softly.

"So you wouldn't worry about it."

Liz nods and they arrive at the locker room.

"Stay here, I'll be right back," Shane says, opening the door.

Shane leaves and Liz sits down on the couch. She opens her laptop and decides to check her e-mail. As she's checking it, the door flings open. She looks up startled, and sees the members of Evolution strut in. She rolls her eyes and shuts her laptop, standing up.

"You guys scared the shit out of me, Liz states, putting her hands on her hips.

"Sorry. We just wanted to see our favorite assistant," Paul states, shrugging.

"Paul, I'm not even your assistant," Liz replies, giggling.

"Are you suggesting something?" Paul raises an eyebrow.

"No, of course not. Just that you're an idiot," Liz says innocently.

"That's it! Get her!" Paul yells at the guys.

She laughs and suddenly stops when she sees the guys surrounding her. Paul smirks and shoots a look at Randy and Dave. Dave moves behind her and Randy grabs her and flings her over his shoulder. She squeals and pounds on his back lightly.

"Put me down, Randy Keith Orton!" Liz screams.

"Naw, I like the view to much," he chuckles, letting his hand rest on her butt.

Shane opens to door and Liz looks up. Shane stares at them, not moving.

"Shane! Help me!" Liz pleads.

Shane chuckles and walks over to Randy.

"Alright, let her down," Shane says as Randy slides Liz off his shoulder.

"Thanks Shane," Liz states, straightening her clothes.

"No problem," he replies, turning away.

Suddenly, he whirls around and throws Liz over his shoulder. He spins around and Liz squeals. He laughs and sets her down. Liz punches him lightly and sticks her tongue out at him. He makes a face at her as Paul chuckles.

"Alright children, break it up," Paul states.

"Fine," Liz says.

"Listen, tonight something's going down, and I want you all here with her, alright?" Shane states, changing the subject.

"Don't worry Shane, we'll be here," Ric pipes in.

"Thanks, well, I gotta go, thanks for watching her. I know she's trouble," Shane smirks, as she sticks her tongue out at him.

"Bye Shane. Be careful, please," Liz pleads, placing her hands on his cheeks.

"I can't promise you anything," Shane replies, leaning down and giving her a kiss on the cheek, "bye."

"Bye," she whispers as he turns and leaves.

They turn on the TV to see Shane and Vince talking. Vince goes to hug Shane, but Shane shoves him away and heads to the ring.

"If something bad is going to happen, let it happen right here, right now," Shane demands, looking around, but nothing's happening.

Eric Bischoff's music plays, and Shane rolls his eyes and shakes his head. Eric comes strutting out and stops at the top of the ramp.

"Eric, if you the 'bad thing that's going to happen tonight', I'm not scared," Shane spits out.

Suddenly, Kane's pyros go off and the lights go out. Shane looks around for Glen, and Glen attacks him from behind. He throws Shane into the turnbuckle and then out of the ring, onto the floor below. Glen slams him into the steel steps and the handcuffs Shane to the ring post. Liz flies up and runs out the door, with Evolution following. Back in the ring, Glen has Shane trapped in the ring steps and he grabs a bottle from under the ring. He pours it all over Shane and pulls out jumper cables and a car battery. Liz stops to look at the screen and gasps. Glen has attached the jumper cables to Shane's crotch, and is shocking him. Paul runs up to Liz and tries to pull her away from the monitor. She shoves him away and continues to run down the hall. She sees Rob run up the stairs and through the curtain and stops. She turns to the monitor they have and sees Rob hit Glen with a chair. He tries to free Shane but sees Glen getting back up, so he gives him a Van Daminator with the chair. They head to commercial, so Liz runs down to the ring. She sees Shane trying to struggle with the handcuffs and she stops next to Rob.

"Liz, get out of here!" Shane states in pain.

"No! I'm here to help you," Liz replies, helping Rob with the handcuffs.

They finally get him free and a stretcher comes out and lays him down. Liz walks beside him, holding his hand. They get him to the back and put him in the ambulance. Liz stands by watching, and she feels like someone's behind her. Liz turns around and sees Glen standing right behind her chuckling. He grabs her and she lets out a little scream.

"He won't be doing anything for a while," he states with a smirk.

"You bastard!" Liz spits out, struggling in his grip.

Glen brings his lips crushing down on hers and then shoves her away. He walks away laughing as she scrambles to get in the ambulance with Shane.

"Oh Shane," Liz says softly, placing her hand on top of his.

"Don't worry about me Lizzie, I'm fine," he winces as he tries to move.

"Mr. McMahon, it'd be best if you didn't move," the EMT states.

Liz smiles weakly and places a kiss on Shane's lips.

"You're not leaving me are you Liz?" Shane asks, closing his eyes.

"Nope, I'll be by your side," Liz replies, looking out of the window in the ambulance, sighing.

'You'll pay Glen,' she promises herself as the ambulance rides away.
