Chapter 15:
Saturday Night's Main Event
Anastacia was tired she had been up all morning training for her match against Sharmell. She and Rey were ready for their match. In the last minute Vince seemed to have a brilliant idea and made the 6-man tag team match, an 8-man inter-gender tag team match. On one team was Batista, Rey, Finlay, and Princess Anastacia while on the other was King Booker, Sharmell, Finlay, and William Regal.
"70." Anastacia huffed as she came up for her 70th sit-up. Rey had already went to their room to get ready for Saturday Night's Main Event while Anastacia stayed in the gym to tune up her enthusiasm for tonight's match. The woman stood up and walked over to a bench where a white cotton towel and bottle of water were waiting. She uncapped the bottle, drank some, and then poured the rest on her body. While she wiped the sweat off her face she heard someone speak.
"You don't have to make such a show you're already sexy."
Anastacia turned to see Ken Kennedy smiling at her and the woman rolled her eyes getting up.
A confidence sparked in her as she smiled and said.
"I appreciate the flattery but I've already got a man."
She tried walking past him but only managed to get half way before he grabbed her wrist and forced her to face him.
"You don't want to leave without giving me a good-bye kiss do you darling?" he smirked at her and tried kissing her before a voice spoke out.
Matt Hardy had been making his way with Ashley from their lunch when he decided to check out how Anastacia was doing in the gym.
"Hey man you don't want to do that." He warned and Mr. Kennedy's head snapped to glare at Matt Hardy.
"And what you going to do about it?" he asked.
"Nothing, but I know she will." Ashley came from behind Kennedy and hit him with a kick to his family jewels.
Kennedy immediately crouched in a fetal position on the floor and Anastacia stepped away.
Ashley looked up at her and smiled.
"Steel toe boots a man's worst enemy." The woman laughed before leaving Kennedy in the gym.
"You want me to get him for you next week?" Matt asked Anastacia as he and Ashley led her to the room she shared with Rey.
The woman smiled, "I think Ashley made him pay enough but if you want to add a little payback in there you're free to do so."
Anastacia then hugged Matt and Ashley before entering the room.

Princess Anastacia emerged from the woman's locker room. Her attire was the same as before but this time in the colors of yellow, red, and blue. Waiting beside the door was Lashley, Rey, and Batista, when she saw the men she couldn't help but smile. These men were some of the best in the business and she… once just a hairstylist, was going to be in a match with them. Anastacia was also happy to see Chavo who was beside Rey smiling at her.

They were the first match and Anastacia, Lashley, Batista, and Rey all came out at the sound of their respective theme songs.
"Look she's afraid of you." Batista smiled at Anastacia as he pointed at Sharmell who indeed had a look of fear on her face. Anastacia couldn't wait to get her hands around the woman's neck and nearly pummel her. The Cuban had an inner anger that no amount of exercise, sparring, or training could help out Sharmell was going to be the instrument to vent her anger into.
Her cool exterior disappeared when Mark Henry came down the ramp. She looked up at Batista whose expression had changed into one of serious anguish. Anastacia also looked to Lashley who was glaring at Finlay. The woman regretted not having been at his side during his match with Finlay. Maybe if she was there Lashley would have had the chance at securing his hold on the United States Championship; however, despite all she wished it was still around the waist of the Irishman, Finlay.
The men agreed that Anastacia was to start the match but Sharmell refused to start off. The former Miss Black America thought of a plan as she finally agreed and stood in her corner when the bell rang signaling the start of the match she turned to tag Booker. Anastacia managed to grab the woman by her ponytail and hurled her away from her husband who held a look of surprise on his face.
Anastacia watched as Sharmell struggled to stand up and immediately hit her with a clothes line.
The woman then managed to fling Sharmell into Sharmell's corner and in the face of her team managed to pummel Sharmell with a few quick jabs at the face the followed with a drop kick to the chest. While in the corner Anastacia also managed to hit Booker in his face causing the King to nearly fall from the apron.
She smiled and then threw Sharmell diagonally into Rey's corner. Anastacia smiled foolishly turning her back on Booker only to have herself but thrown down to the mat by Finlay. The referee warned Finlay as he looked over Anastacia who now had her hands on her head rolling from the pain the impact on the mat caused her. Sharmell slowly regained her strength and ran toward Anastacia hitting her with a boot to the face. Booker grabbed Anastacia by her hair and Rey rushed out to help her. While the referee was distracted with Rey Finlay handed Sharmell his shillelagh and the Queen managed to strike Anastacia in the mid-section with it before throwing it outside the ring.
Sharmell then through Anastacia to the center of the ring and pinned her for a 2 count. Sharmell tried again getting the same results as before.
The Queen gripped Anastacia by her hair and made her get up only to be kicked in the mid-section. Anastacia managed to throw Sharmell back into her corner of the ring before collapsing on one knee because of the strength she used. Meanwhile, the woman didn't notice that Booker had been tagged into the match by Sharmell and was ready to attack her with a scissors kick. Fate was on the Cuban's side as she glimpsed Booker stocking her on the Titan-tron and managed to crawl under his legs and tag in Rey.

Anastacia didn't pay much attention as the match pursued the only thing she knew for sure was the outcome and her being picked up and put on the shoulders of Batista and Lashley as the 4 celebrated in victory. Whatever occurred she didn't really care at the moment. They had won the match and she was looking forward to getting her paycheck for the match and taking a good night's sleep.
Arieru: I hope you liked it and I know it was short but I promise it'll get better. I am definitely looking forward to writing the chapter during The Great American Bash and things following but we have one more chapter until then. R&R!
