What's up, everyone? I'm back with chapter two of this heartwarming story!

Date: September 27, 2005

Previously on Chapter one:

Amy blushed. "Thank you very much. Listen, would you like to stay with me for a while? I don't want your father coming after you while you're in the hospital."

"I would like that very much. Are you gonna be my new mother?" Alicia laid her head against her shoulder.

Tears fell from her eyes. "Of course, baby."

Here's Chapter two.

"Doctor, what can you tell me about Alicia's condition?" Amy asked. She escorted Alicia to the hospital so she could get some treatment.

"This girl has been more abused than anyone else. Her back is covered with scars and bruises and her father even took a knife and split her back open with it. It took three major surgeries to put it back together," Doctor Taylor said.

She covered her mouth with her hand and cried. Poor Alicia. How could her father do this to her? She didn't deserve what her father did to her.

"Miss Dumas, you came at the right time and came to her rescue. Otherwise, Drew would've killed her." she shook her head.

"Doctor, I would love to adopt this girl. Who do I have to talk to about that process?" Amy said as she looked over and saw Alicia sleeping peacefully in her bed.

"All you gotta do is go to Social Services and fill out some forms. And, if I were you, I do it tomorrow at the latest. I must say, you're doing the right thing in taking care of this girl." Taylor placed her hand on her shoulder.

Amy smiled weakly. "Alicia deserves to have someone who loves her. I deserve to have a child in my life."

"Why? You can't have children?" Taylor was confused.

"I lost my unborn son through a miscarriage. I was in a bad marriage with a man who didn't wanna have anything to do with our baby. My son was the only salvation I had but he had to suffer the consequences," Amy cried.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, Miss Dumas. You didn't deserve to lose your son like that. I hope Alicia could bring some closure to your life." Doctor Taylor said with a smile.

Amy looked at a sleeping Alicia and smiled. "I hope so, too."

Drew Denton had to bail himself out of jail this time. He was furious! This redheaded bitch stuck her nose in his business where it didn't belong and it pissed him off! Alicia was his daughter, for crying out loud!

He walked out of the police station and headed for his car when he saw one on the social workers approaching him. Drew held in his breath as she came his way.

"Mr. Denton, I need for you to sign this for me, please," Nina Simon said as she shoved the papers in his face.

He snatched the papers away from her. "What kind of papers are these?"

"I need you to sign over your rights as a father. You have been deemed as an unfit parent," Nina said firmly.

Drew ripped the papers apart and threw them up in the air. "I'm not giving up my daughter! She's mine! Alicia has nowhere else to go!"

"Mr. Denton..." Nina tried to say.

"I'm not giving her up for you! I'm gonna fight you on this matter! Alicia deserves to be at home with me where she belongs!" Drew yelled before he stormed off.

"You're gonna regrets this for the rest of your life, Mr. Denton!" Nina yelled behind him.

"Okay, Amy. You can sign these release forms and then Alicia can go with you," Taylor said as she handed her the forms.

"No problem." Amy smiled. After signing each document, she handed the forms back over to Taylor and got up from her seat.

"Well, that's it. Alicia's now in your hands. I wish you nothing but the best being her mother," Taylor said as she escorted Amy to the door.

"Angela, I wanna thank you for everything you have done for me. You've already been such a good friend to me," Amy said as she hugged her.

"You don't have to thank me, honey. I'm a mother myself. No child should ever have to take that kind of abuse." Angela smiled.

Amy opened the door and saw Alicia standing there, wearing a lopsided grin on her face. She took her soon-to-be daughter in her arms and held her close.

"Are you ready to go, sweetheart?" Amy asked as they pulled apart.

"I'm ready if you're ready, Mommy," Alicia said with a smile.

Amy loved this sweet little girl already.

Trish was in her locker room, preparing for her comeback when there was a knock on the door. Curious, she went towards the door and opened it, only to find Amy standing there with Alicia in her arms.

"What's going on with you, Ames? And what's with the little girl in your arms?" Trish asked, looking concerned.

"Remember what you said that I need to let go of the bitterness building up inside of me? Well, I've finally taken your advice," Amy said with a small smile.

"Really?" Trish was surprised.

"Yes, really. I found Alicia out in the alley. She was being beaten by her father so I couldn't just stand there and let it happen. Ever since then, she's been in my care," Amy explained.

"I'm so happy for you, Ames. Maybe you can be the mother you'd always wanted to be." Trish hugged her best friend and Alicia.

"I'm happy, too." Amy cried.

"Amy, I commend you for taking care of this girl. No child deserves to be abused like that," chairman Vince McMahon said when she came into his office.

"Thank you, Vince. I hope having Alicia around won't be a problem for you," Amy said.

"It's not a problem. In case you have a match, I'll have security watch over Alicia until you get back. And, don't worry about Drew. I'll personally see to it he won't get to you or Alicia," Vince declared, lifting the McMahon chin.

She got up from her seat. "Thank you so much, Vince. That means so much to me."

He winked at her and smiled. "Go be with her, Ames. I'll see you later."

She walked out of his office with a huge smile on her face. Things were definitely looking up for her. Alicia was in her life, she got her friends back and the bitterness she held inside slowly began to disappear.

Amy walked around the corner and headed back to her locker room when she heard Alicia scream. Desperate, she ran down the hall just as the screams got louder. By the time she got out to the parking lot, Alicia was being dragged away by Drew.

"You're coming home with me, you little bitch! You had no business leaving me like that!" Drew said as he pulled her towards his car.

"Hey! Leave her alone! She's not your child anymore!" Amy yelled as she grabbed Alicia's arm.

"You stay out of this, lady. This has nothing to do with you! Alicia's my daughter and she's coming home with me!" Drew yelled.

Just then, two security guards came out and tackled Drew to the ground. Alicia ran in Amy's arms and cried her eyes out. She pulled her inside, grabbed a tissue and began wiping the tears away from her face.

"Are you all right, baby?" Amy asked softly.

"Daddy said he was gonna make my pay for leaving him. I was so scared!" Alicia cried.

Amy hugged her tightly. "Don't worry, baby. I won't let him hurt you again. I rather die than to live without you!"

Things are already heating up for our girl! Stay tuned in Chapter three because Alicia will form a bond with Triple H!
