Chapter 2

"What the hell is wrong with you" Samaire yelled as she returned to the back.

"There is nothing wrong with me" Stacy screamed back as tears began forming in her eyes.

"Oh don't you dare start with the tears, it's your fault the match was messed up" Samaire warned.

Stacy began to whimper some more as she noticed people gathering around. The match had been a complete joke, with Stacy completely forgetting her moves mid match. Samaire had tried to salvage the match but it was obvious to the crowd what had happened. They had looked like complete idiots at one of the biggest pay per views of the year – Summerslam.

As Samaire continued to glare at Stacy she noticed Corey McMahon making his way over to the gathered crowd which surrounded them. Stacy had obviously noticed him as well, because as if on cue she crumpled to the ground and began crying.

As he approached Samaire could see him fuming. Corey McMahon was the co-owner of the WWE with his father Vince. Corey held much of the control concerning the day-to-day operations. Samaire could tell by the expression on his face that he was clearly not impressed with what had just transpired in the ring.

"WHAT THE HELL TO YOU TWO CALL THAT!" he yelled towards Samaire and Stacy.

"Oh god Mr McMahon I'm so sorry" sobbed Stacy. "Samaire made the match so complicated that I couldn't really follow and well you know I'm still learning and…….." Stacy broke off and started crying again. Samaire glared at her.

"Is this true Samaire?" Corey asked his dark eyes intensely focused on hers.

"Of course not Corey, I made sure that……."

"You made sure I'd look bad, that's what you did" Stacy interrupted as she got up to her feet.

"You want to look all perfect, you think you are above everyone else and you will stop at nothing to destroy everyone else to get what you want" she continued, aware that more people were gathering around.

Samaire had had enough. She looked at Corey, who was still watching her reactions. She then turned to Stacy who was smirking at her. Samaire paused before using all her force and slapped Stacy as hard as she could.

The gathered crowd gasped as they watched Stacy fall to the ground. Samaire looked over at Corey who was staring at her in shock before she proceeded to walk off to her dressing room without another word.

"You did what?" as Trish as Samaire told her what had transpired earlier. "Not that the bitch didn't deserve it, but did you have to smack her in front of Corey? You could be fired for this Sam!"

Samaire sighed as she once again studied her reflection in the mirror. With her long black hair pulled away from her face she noticed dark circles under her eyes. She was tired of worrying about her future and dealing with people like Stacy Keibler.

"Maybe being fired would be the best thing for me" she said sadly.

Trish looked at Samaire in shock. She watched as Samaire sank down into the couch. Trish studied her friend carefully. Her normally beautiful and bright friend looked sad and tired.

"What do you mean – what about all your friends here who love you, especially Adam?"

Before Samaire had a chance to respond there was a loud knock on the door. As Trish opened the door Corey's face appeared.

"Hi sweetie" Trish said, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "What's up?" she asked, knowing why he was here.

"Hi honey, could you give me and Samaire a minute please" he said walking into the room.

Trish looked at Samaire nervously.

"I'll meet you at the club, ok Sam" she said, giving Samaire a quick hug before leaving the room.

"You know why I'm here right" Corey asked as he joined Samaire on the couch. Samaire nodded in reply.

"Well Stacy isn't going to press charges, but we are going to have to make some storyline changes".

"Like what?" Samaire inquired, "Will I be feuding with someone else?"

"Actually not quite Sam" Corey said uneasily. "Stacy will be. You are being taken off the active roster for a while" he continued, watching Samaire's face turn red with anger, "You will be put into a manager's role for now".

Samaire jumped off the couch. "WHAT!" she yelled. "I'm getting punished because that stupid bitch can't remember some basic bloody moves"

"Samaire calm down, your lucky Vince didn't decide to fire you for this"

Samaire turned around and faced Corey. "Vince is here, in this building" she asked calmly.

Corey looked at her with a worried expression. He couldn't tell where this was going.

"Yeah why……………Sam what are you doing?"

Samaire walked out the door and down the hall. Corey tried to follow her. "Sam think about this" he yelled after her, but to no effect.

Samaire walked straight into Vince's office where he was deep in conversation with his daughter Stephanie.

"What the hell do you think you are doing in here" Vince bellowed at Samaire.

She looked at him calmly.

"I'm giving you my resignation" she replied.
