Randy was not looking forward to Raw that week. How could he after what had happened to Trish the prior week? The pain was still to raw and the betrayal cut too deep. He just couldn't believe that Hunter had done something so heinous to someone that Randy cared about, that Hunter knew he cared about. Maybe Hunter didn't know his exact feelings, maybe he didn't know every single detail, but he knew enough, he knew enough to know that this would hurt Randy.

And yet he went through it anyways, he went through with it. Maybe Molly was the one who was behind the entire thing, but it still didn't change the fact that Hunter had been a part of it. Thinking of him holding Trish back just set his blood to boil and didn't stop, and wouldn't stop. Not until he had his revenge. And his revenge would be beautifully planned and executed.

"Hi," Trish said, from where she was sitting next to him. They had been watching a movie in her hotel room and he had been quiet for a while.

Randy shook his head free of the thoughts that he had just been thinking and turned to her, "Hey. You liking the movie?"

"I would like it more if you were actually answering the questions that I was asking," Trish told him. "But I understand that you have a lot on your mind."

"I'm sorry, I'm here with you, I should pay attention to you."

"Yeah, but you have revenge on your mind, I can't expect you to be all about me when you have so much to think about. Think of anything good yet?" she asked, and she sounded almost anxious. But anyone would be if they had the purplish hue that Trish's face had at the moment.

"No, but I really do enjoy being with you Trish," Randy said. "I mean…I don't actually know what I mean."

"I'm glad, because I found that I enjoy being with you, which is a complete surprise to me because I hated you…a lot. But Stephanie and Chris were right about every group having one good guy wanting to break free, I guess in this case there was two, you and Dave," Trish said, not realizing that she had just said Chris and Stephanie in the same sentence AGAIN, which was like the fifteenth time that she had said it, which wouldn't be so bad if Chris and Stephanie were trying to keep themselves a secret.

"Chris and Stephanie? You sure seem to say there names together a lot," Randy said thoughtfully. Luckily for Trish, Randy wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer and these references kept going right over his head, not being able to put two and two together so to speak.

"Oh…um…yeah, it's just I hang out with them a lot. Cause you know, they're my friends," Trish tried to cover, rather pathetically.

"Oh," Randy said. "I thought Stephanie was fired, what's she doing around?"

"Um, well, I think that she's back on track with her parents," Trish explained. "I guess they're going to hire her back or something. But I don't think she and her father are fighting anymore."

"That's great!" Randy exclaimed. "She can help us!"

"What?" Trish asked, alarmed, already thinking of Stephanie working to get back at Hunter. It was probably something she had been waiting to do, or at least in the past had wanted to do. Maybe…she remembered Stephanie telling her that she was with Hunter for nothing but power and she had been sleeping with Chris the entire time.

"Well, she's the boss's daughter, that has to count for something. This is great, I can use her, and maybe we can actually fire Hunter or get him arrested, or you know, only give him matches with jobbers and no title shots."

"I don't know if she has that kind of power."

"But she might right?"

"She might," Trish conceded.

"Then she can help, she was married to the guy after all and then he dumped her."

"I don't think that's how it went," Trish said, knowing that was definitely not how it went. Hunter had found out about Chris and Stephanie and rather than Stephanie feel badly for it, she just flaunted Chris in front of his face, but all of this happened before Randy had come along so he wouldn't know about it.

"Oh, well still," Randy said excitedly. "Can we call Dave and Stephanie and get them over here and we can discuss a plan?"

"Randy, I don't think that Stephanie can come, I mean, I don't even know where she is," Trish said, not wanting to bring Stephanie into this. She'd rather keep her friends out of this. If this was going to be dangerous, she'd much rather just put herself on the line and not drag her friends into it.

"Well, you can ask right?"

"Um, I don't know," Trish said, her voice trailing off.

"Come on Trish," Randy pleaded. "We're going to need all the help that we can get, you know as much as I do that Hunter is a dangerous man."

Trish had a hard time saying no to him. He was just so charming sometimes, and he had this excited, little boy look in his eye, like he had just received the best present in the entire world. Trish really wanted to help him with his plan, to help him break free from Evolution, but dragging people who potentially didn't want to be involved, she wasn't sure if she could do that.

"I guess I can give her a call," Trish said softly, trying to sound upbeat, but failing miserably. "I'll call her right now."

"Great!" Randy exclaimed, rubbing his hands together in glee. "This'll be great. Hunter, Flair, and Molly are never going to know what hit them. I'm glad that Molly will be going down too, I think that we should set up a match between you two so that you can win the Women's Title. Molly keeps dodging all your challenges, and I think it's time for her to step up."

"I do like that," Trish said enthusiastically, reaching up to kiss his cheek. She felt a little bit better about calling Stephanie. She needed to reassure herself a little bit more so she repeated, "I'll go call her now."

Trish got up, to the excited grin of Randy, and walked into the bedroom, sitting on her bed and picking up the hotel phone. If Stephanie wasn't in her room, she could probably call her cell phone. She dialed the numbers to her room, wondering what she was going to say. This shouldn't be so hard though, Stephanie was her friend, and friends helped each other out.

"Who is calling me on the hotel phone?" Chris's voice answered. Trish smiled a little.

"Hey Chris, it's Trish."

"Oh hey beautiful," Chris said. "What's up? And if you want a little loving, I'm going to have to decline, my girlfriend is right here."

"Actually she's the one I wanted to talk to."

"Ok, that's cool," Chris said, handing the phone over to Stephanie. "Trish wanted to talk to you. I'm not good enough anymore."

Stephanie took the phone, "What's up Trish?"

"Well, I was wondering if you could come down to my room. Um…Randy's here and he's calling Dave, and you see…um, we have this plan, or we're going to have this plan to bring down Hunter, and um…well, Randy wanted to get you involved since your family kind of runs the company…you don't have to, really, but he just wanted me to ask."

"Oh, it's fine," Stephanie said happily. "If you need help, I'm willing."

"Really?" Trish asked hopefully. "Cause you really don't have to."

"It's cool, how about I round up Christian and Lita, who are making out on our couch right now with no regard to OTHER PEOPLE," Stephanie said loudly and away from the phone, obviously directing that statement at Christian and Lita, who took no note of what she was saying.

"But Steph, you and Chris…" Trish said.

"It's cool, we told my parents this morning, they're fine with it. I mean they were concerned since things didn't end so well with Chris before, but they understood that we needed the time apart to really understand what we wanted," Stephanie said, getting serious for a moment. "So it's cool, we'll all help."

"You guys really don't have to…"

"We WANT to Trish, I think I can speak for all of us when we say that. After what they did to you, we want to get back at them."

"Thanks Steph," Trish said genuinely. "You guys know where I'm at then?"

"Yeah, we know, we'll be by in a few minutes."

"Thanks again, see you in a few."

"You will, bye."

Trish went back out to where Randy was just finishing up his phone call with Dave. She sat down next to him and he wrapped his arm around her. She smiled up at him, not sure if she was going to speak first or if he was. They both opened their mouths to speak and laughed because they were going to talk at the same moment and break the silence they had been in for the past few minutes.

"You first," Randy told her.

"Well, I called Stephanie, and she's going to bring Chris, Christian, and Lita with her, and they are all willing to help us," Trish said with a happy smile. "And Stephanie is…"

"Willing to help, great," Randy said, nodding, not realizing that Trish was going to tell him about Stephanie and Chris to prepare him, not that Randy needed "preparing," but he might like to know beforehand that if he asked Stephanie to do something dangerous that he would have to deal with Chris.

"Well, yeah," she said, and before she could get another word in, he leaned over and kissed her. It was still a tiny bit awkward; they were just starting out together and it was bound to be a little bit awkward right now. But she let herself into the kiss and responded pretty eagerly. It was nice to not be the only one in her immediate group of friends with nobody.

They were predictably interrupted by a rapping on the door and Trish reluctantly broke away. She gave Randy a shy smile, still reveling in this new and strange relationship. She was glad that she opened the proverbial door to him, and realized he was nothing like most of his Evolution cohorts, or his former cohorts, save for Dave. She got up and went to the door, seeing Dave on the other side.

"Dave, hi, glad you could come," Trish said, like she was the hostess for some kind of party.

"Thanks," Dave said, standing there awkwardly. Trish shook her head and laughed at herself as she stepped aside to let Dave in. He walked in and she was about to close the door when she saw Christian's head stick in from the side.

"Hey Trish, we're here," Christian said. "Did we just see Dave Batista walk in here?"

"Yeah, now get your asses in here," Trish told them, actually physically pulling Christian into the room.

"Hey, hey, hey, watch the arm," Christian told her. "I have to wrestle with this arm, and I'd like to keep in intact."

"Sorry, I just don't want Hunter or any of the others to see you guys," Trish said, sticking her head out the door to look both ways. "You never know when they're spying."

"Ok, geez," Christian said, pulling Lita into the room. Chris and Stephanie followed, giving Trish a smile.

"So we're ready for anything," Chris said. "I'm ready to kick ass. You want me to go after Hunter, I'm going after Hunter. I mean, he took out my ex-girlfriend, and to me that's unforgivable, especially because I still care about you."

"Oh yeah, that's just what I want to hear my boyfriend say," Stephanie said, rolling her eyes as she walked into the main room with her hand in Chris's.

"Like you're jealous," Chris scoffed. "You don't even care. We weren't even together then."

"But we are now."

"And I get what you're saying loud and clear," Chris told her. Trish ushered them inside as they looked around for seats that were currently occupied by someone or another. There was only one chair left and Chris shrugged, sitting down and pulling Stephanie into his lap.

"So we called you here to discuss something important," Trish said, going to take her spot on the couch. "Something about Hunter and Evolution."

"We figured that," Christian said. "So you might want to get to the point, which is probably why we're all here."

"I know that's why I'm here," Chris said.

"That and his ever-growing need to just kick someone's ass," Stephanie said sarcastically. "Which in this situation, I'll say it's pretty much deserved. I know how Hunter can be, and it's not pretty."

"Yeah, we thought you'd be invaluable," Randy said, eyeing Chris and Stephanie, because this was certainly news to him even though they looked like they were an old married couple or something. He glanced at Trish, but she was looking at Stephanie, and she must've knew because she was so calm. He wondered if she could possibly be jealous because after all, Chris was her ex-boyfriend.

"Well, I think I know him pretty well," Stephanie said. "Not to mention I still have his house keys, if that's anything that would help. I mean, if you were planning on breaking and entering, now you don't have to because we can just walk right in."

Trish laughed, "Well, I don't know if that's what we had in mind."

"Oh, but Hunter has plenty, PLENTY of embarrassing things in his house that you could exploit. So if you're going for total humiliation, then I think that could be the way to go, but that's just a suggestion."

"What kind of embarrassing stuff?" Chris inquired.

"Oh, you don't even want to know," Stephanie laughed. "Let me just say that it would humiliate him. I'm so glad my marriage to him was not real. I might've died if I actually had to be with him. He's just so gross and smarmy, I was glad to let him go off and sleep with any skank he wanted."

"That's cause half the time you were at Chris's house anyways," Trish said, rolling her eyes. "But Stephanie, if there really is incriminating stuff, we can definitely use that. So thanks."

"Anything to help bring Hunter down, he was the cause of two year of misery for me."

"Me too," Dave spoke up quietly, everyone turning their heads towards the largest man in the room by far. He looked up at them. "He was an asshole. I thought we were friends, but come on…he kept me in the dark about a lot of things."

"Which makes this plan even more necessary," Randy said.

"I would do it on what he did to Trish alone," Christian said. "I know there are a lot more reasons, but honestly, for that, he should pay."

"He will," Randy said, a hard edge to his voice as he looked over at Trish."

"Ok then, here's what we have to do…"
