Secrets And Lies
Evolution and Brooklyn stepped out of the limo and walked up to the hotel. Many thoughts were running through Brooklyn's mind. What if Dave and Randy had a serious falling out? What would this mean for her? The two teammates hadn't said two words to each other since the incident in the locker room. The only things they'd said was an agreement to what Ric or Triple H was saying. She ran her fingers through her hair uneasily. Well, at least she knew what was on Randy's mind now. But what if …
Her cell phone rang. "Hello?" she said. "Where the hell are you?" the familiar voice of Undertaker, her oldest brother who also wrestled, rang throughout her ears. The house show! She'd been so wrapped up in the whole Randy-Dave thing, she'd forgotten. "We need you in Hershey in an hour. Where are you now?" he asked, an anger in his voice. "I'm in Pittsburg. If I start driving now I can make it there in about 45 minutes." Brooklyn said. What would 'Taker say when she gave him her excuse? Would she have to tell him what she knew? And if she did, then what would he do...
"Well, get driving." he said. Brooklyn called Randy to let him know where she was going.
45 minutes later, she walked into an arena in Hershey, where she went straight to 'Taker's locker room. Inside was 'Taker, John Cena ('Taker's tag team partner for that night; she needed to be at ringside), Chavo Guerrero and Paul London. "Where the hell were you?" 'Taker asked impatiently. Brooklyn swore he was getting stroppier these days. "I was just hanging out with Evolution." she said. What a pathetic excuse, she thought. "Can I ask why?" 'Taker asked impatiently. "Ummm…Randy...asked...me…" Her voice trailed away. 'Taker hadn't been totally peachy about her and Randy's relationship since day one. "Urrgh, Randy Orton. I can see myself getting into a fight with him one of these days." John said deliberately. "Wanna say that to my face!" Brooklyn said, edging towards him angrily. 'Taker broke them up. "Hey, hey hey. Don't get angry. John, you'll get your chance to let off steam when we tag up against JBL and Orlando in a minute." 'Taker said, gesturing them out through the curtain. Brooklyn didn't know whether to tell Undertaker or not.
As they were on the way out to the ring, Undertaker whispered in Brooklyn's ear. "Ok, so the truth. Where were you?" he asked. "I was hanging out with Evolution, like I said. I was getting out of the limo to go to the hotel in Pittsburg, when you called. So then I told Randy where I was going and headed over here, to Hershey." she said. "You're hiding something." Undertaker said as they were getting in the ring.
"Good match." John said to Undertaker backstage. 'Taker turned his head towards Brooklyn. "Tell me." "Tell you what?" Brooklyn asked. "Whatever it is you're hiding." Undertaker said. Damn, he knows I'm hiding something, Brooklyn thought. She pondered telling him. "Nothing. I've got nothing to hide." she said. Undertaker gave her an "are you sure?" look. "Would I lie to you?" she asked. 'Taker shook his head and left.
