Chapter XII – Betrayals
For Cleo, the two following weeks were spent training hard. On that week's Raw Dave and Randy had tag team match, and they won, but nothing else very important happened. Ric Flair wasn't making her train easy, he was very demanding with her.
"After all" he said, "we want you to become champion as soon as possible."
The only good thing about that was that, even though Ric was the one training her wrestling skills, Dave was the one who trained her for resistance. They spent lots of time together, so the affection between both of them grew. She was starting to like Ric too, he was a good teacher and fun to be with.
On Friday, when Cleo arrived her training, Ric welcomed her with a smile as usually.
"Honey, I've been thinking, and I know just how to get you to be more a part of Evolution!" Oh, great. "Really? How?" she asked. "I wanna teach you our finishing moves!" "Finishing moves?" she smiled, their finishing moves were great. "You wanna teach me the Pedigree, RKO, Batista Bomb and Figure Four?" "Well, actually I wanna teach you the Double underhook facebuster, Diamond Cutter, Powerslam and Figure Four Leglock." She raised her eyebrows. "If you're gonna start calling them that, no one's gonna get it." He sighed. "Let's start with the Figure Four then. I'll have to ask the others to teach you their own moves."

Monday night. Evolution's limo arrived to the arena, with the cameras following the members till the locker room. Once everybody was inside, Hunter closed the doors abruptly.
"Ok. Tonight Randy will have a match for the Intercontinental Championship, and we're all gonna be there." He said.
"That's ok, I don't need you to be there. I can handle myself!" Randy answered. H was about to reply but Randy didn't let him. "Come on! You know I can do this by myself! And Stacy will be there... if I happen to need any help." Cleo gave a little sarcastic laugh.
"Do you have something against it?" he asked violently.
She kept chewing a piece of gum, and looked at him with a beautiful smile on her lips. "Nothing at all." She stood up from the couch she was sitting on and went to the door. "I'm gonna get dressed. As you might have thought, I'm not gonna change here." She started to exit, but just before leaving, she turned back. "Trish's got a match today, I'ma show up. Just so you know." And, without anybody else noticing, she winked at Dave and left.
"Did you just see that?" Randy yelled at Hunter. "She acts like she's queen of the world! She needs to be tought a lesson, that little-"
"Watch it Orton." Dave told him. He glared at Randy, who glared back. Hunter saw it. "Hey, watch it you two..."
"Besides, she should act like she's queen of the world." Ric said. "She's a member of Evolution. I wouldn't expect any less."

Cleo waked through the hall heading Christy's dressing room. She could hear Randy yelling inside the locker room she just left from. She smiled. The madder the better. That was the plan proposed by Christy. Annoy Randy untill he just can't stand her no more. Dave would stick with her; so would Ric. Hunter would probably go along.
Now to worry about other things. Like Trish. She was gonna have a non-title match against Michelle McCool. Cleo wanted to show up just to give her a piece of her mind. And to show what I have learned! She got to Christy's dressing room and opened the door. As soon as she looked inside her mouth dropped. Chris Benoit was lying on the floor and Christy was on top of him. Even more to her shock, he was in his wrestling outfit, barechested, and her skirt was totally torn to the wrong side. "I'm sorry, I'll just..." and she left closing the door. Once outside, she gasped smiling and covered her mouth with her hands. Christy and Uncle Chris? I would have never... I mean, it's so cute! At that instant the door suddenly opened and Chris came out very embaraced, for what it seamed.
"Cleo, that was not what you are thinking!" he said very fast. "We-"
"That's ok, you don't have to explain to me!" she said grinning. He opened his mouth to answer but at that instant Christy pulled her inside abruptly. "Bye." She said to Chris. "Bye."
"What the hell was that about?" Cleo asked when she closed the door and got back in.
"You weren't seaming to be coming in any time soon-"
"Not that!" she pointed to the place where they were lying when she opened the door. "That!"
"Don't be all hysterical!" she went to sit on the couch facing back Cleo. "We just fell." She said calmly. Cleo gasped. "Hum hum." Christy turned arround to answer but her friend had alredy disapeared into the bathroom.

Cleo came back to Evolution's locker room to watch the show from there. She was wearing a really short layered red skirt with a black tankini top with knee length leather boots.
"You look lovely honey. But maybe you should've worn pants today." Ric said.
"Oh, don't worry. The skirt's short enough." She said, turning the TV on.
"Short enough for what?" Dave asked, coming out of the bathroom. She smiled. "You'll see."
Just then, Randy came in. He looked at her from top to bottom, and smirked, but didn't say anything. She just glarted at him with a deadly look.
They all watched the show untill it was time for Trish's match, then Cleo left to go to the ring entrance. Trish won, much for Cleo's dissatisfaction. But when Trish was celebrating with her title in the middle of the ring, Cleo's theme sounded at the arena. The fans cheered for her, and she held her hand up to greet them. She asked for a mic and entered the ring.
"Congratulations Trish!" she said. "You beat Michelle McCool. Just like you beat me." The croud started insulting Trish. "As much as I agree with that, she did." Trish took the mic off her hands. "Yeah, that's right. I beat you. And you know why? Because I am the best woman wrestler in this business." Cleo listened with a bored face. "You can't even wrestle, I mean-" but Cleo took the mic. Where have I seen this before? Oh well. "I can't wrestle? Actually that's exactly the reason I'm here: to show you what I've learned." She turned arround to the fans. "Do you guys wanna see it?" they cheered. "Ok." She suddenly turned to Trish and gave her a blow in the stomach with her knee, causing her to bend over. Then she pulled her placing Trish's head between her legs and hoking her arms behind her back. She droped to her knees, forcing Trish's face into the mat in an unmistakable Pedigree. Trish just lyed there. Cleo picked up the Woman's Championship and held it up, being cheered by the croud.
"Did you just see that, JR?" King said. "That was the Pedrigree, the Game's Pedigree!"
"Yeah," JR answered, "it seams Evolution are teaching this girl all of their tricks."

"You were brilliant, I didn't think you would do it that good!" Hunter said, when she arrived the locker room. "Thanks." She answered.
"You don't know the best: Bischoff was just here, he wants you and Trish in a match at No Way Out for the championship!" Dave told her.
"Really? That's wonderful!" she said smiling. "I can't wait to get her."
"Look, Randy's match is starting!" Ric said.
-+-
Randy's match was against Chris Jericho. He controled at first, but then Jericho got an opening and started to control. As Randy had said, Stacy was there, cheering for him. At some point, Randy asked for Stacy to get him a chair. She went to get it, but at the last minute, she gave Chris the chair instead of Randy. She distracted the referee so Jericho could use it. He did and he won. Randy just stood there looking at Stacy while the champion celebrated and left. Stacy went up to the ring with a mic.
"Randy, you were a lousy boyfriend and you only made suffer. I'm sick of it. It was time for payback." She droped the mic and was about to leave, when he picked. "Stacy!" she turned to see him alredy up. "It's good you think that way. I couldn't stand you anymore neither. And you know something else? You're gonna help me one last time." And to everybody's shock, he delievered an RKO on her.
"That son of a-" Cleo yelled, but she was interrupted by Ric. "Shh."
"Hey Hunter, did you see that?" he said, looking at the camera. "I hope you did, because that is what's gonna happen to you at No Way Out, when I become World Heavyweight Champion!" he droped the mic and held his arms up in his cocky way.
In the Evolution locker room, everybody stood quiet in complete shock, with their mouths droped.
