Jayden called the number on the paper, and arranged to sign up for the class that evening. She finished her paperwork in her room and after Lita left to go to dinner she changed into some sweats and got in her car to head to the Downtown Gym where the class was being held.

"First off I want to start by saying you are the victim, and everyone thinks that just because your the victim you can't handle yourself. Just because your a victim doesn't mean you can't get back in control. Does anyone wanna share a story with the class before we get into defenses?"

A short blonde girl stood up " I was attacked by my bestfriend. He thought we were meant to each other but I told him I didn't see him that way. Next thing I know I'm in a hospital and two weeks later I'm pregnant. When he found out he and some friends beat me up so bad that I lost the baby. All I feel now is anger. He's free, and yet I feel like I'm the one in prison. "

A tall thin brown haired girl stood next " I was attacked by a guy from highschool. He said I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He beat me up, and then left me for dead. Now I'm just relieved I didn't get raped. I went to counseling and it really helpped me work through my greif and guilt over me feeling like it was my fault it being my fault. I was able to stand up in court, and now he's doing ten years."

Jayden decided that these girls were sorta like her only with different stories. She stood up " I dated a guy for 4 years. He beat me all the time, but I was to scared to leave...One day when I did try...he hit me with a bat, and... he raped... me. I never told anyone because I thought it was my fault. I wanted to be okay after that but I'm not. He started the attacks again recently, and I feel like I'm never gonna be free. I'm scared of my new relationship..."

''Did you ever go to counseling?" The blonde asked.

Jayden shook her head no and then the defense intructor handed her a card with a 800 number to get a counsel near her since she traveled all the time.

" The first step is to get it out in the open, and then take control. You will get your life back, just let your friends help." The instructor said before starting on defense moves.

Jayden got back to the hotel late, noone seemed to be in the lobby. She got on the elevator and just as the door was about to shut a hand stopped it and a guy stepped on to the elevator. She got a weird feeling but didn't pay it any mind. When the elevator started to move up she took a glance at the guy. Something seemed farmiliar about him but she couldn't place it.

"Nice night huh?"

Jayden's eyes widened a little but she tried to keep her cool. It was the voice of her attacker "Yeah pretty good." She took out her cell phone and pretended to answer a call that was on vibrate.

"I guess I forgot to put my ring off Vibrate."

She put up her contacts and hit Dave's number while pressing send quickly " Hi baby. I'm on my way up to the room right now."

" Jayden whats up, where are you?"Dave asked when he answered the phone seeing her cell number on his caller id.

"I'm sorry my phone must've been breaking up. I'm on my way up in the elevator right now. Do you want to meet me at the elevator doors and then we can walk to Adam's room together?"

"Babe are you okay? You sound weird. Is something wrong?"

" Yes."

" Is someone with you?"

"Yeah, he is. Maybe we need to all have a long talk later about that though."

Jayden heard a cracking before her phone cut off and saw that she was almost to the 9th floor.She closed her phone.The elevator just hit the 8th floor when the guy standing by her hit the stop button and placed a hand over her mouth pushing her into the wall at the same time.

"Call the cops off if you know what's good for you." He said pulling a knife out of his pocket and putting it to her throat.

Jayden nodded yes and as he was putting the knife away. She reached into her pocket and pulled out a can of pepper spray hitting him right in the face with it.

He screamed out in pain covering his eyes and falling to the floor. Jayden hit the go button and pounded on the door as it reached the 9th floor, The doors openned causing her to fall out into the arms of Dave. The police were there and apprehended the suspect on the floor.

"Are you okay?" Dave asked as she scrambled to get away.

"It's him. He's the one who attacked me. He threatened me with a knife if I didn't call the cops off."

When the cops brought him out of the elevator Dave ran passed Jayden and grabbed the guy by the collar slamming him up against the wall.

"Come near here again, and I'll kill you! Understand!"

"Dave man back off." John said as he and Randy pulled him from the attacker " Jayden doesn't need you to go to jail too for assault or murder. "

"Yeah man, let it go" Randy said then he looked at the guy " Next time you'll have more than just Dave to fend off. Tell your man to back down."

The guy smirked and then glared at Jayden as Lita put an arm of comfort around her whil the cops led him away.

Dave cooled off a little and walked back over to Jayden "Did he hurt you?"

Jayden shook her head " I think I got him more than he got me this time. He's not gonna be able to see for a while."

Dave smiled " I feel so bad about that..not."

"Where were you tonight?" Randy asked.

" I went to a self defense class. I wanted to try to learn how to protect myself without getting in between your schedules."

"I don't care if I have to put off matches to help you learn to defend yourself. If it'll help you feel a little safer than I'm there."

Jayden smiled a little before doing something she hadn't done yet. She pulled Dave down to her and kissed him. Dave couldn't help but smile, and neither could Jayden.

Dave kissed her again then took her to her and Lita's room where he stayed that night along with John, Randy, Adam, and Rey.
