ATM: Seth and the God Girls – A Whole New World
Bianca Belair and the God Girls have a hard time convincing Becky Lynch to stay after hearing that her plans to marry Finn Balor might be put on hold until Bayley brings Sasha Banks back from Saudi Arabia.
Chapter Nineteen – The Impatient Prince
BayRock's beach house, Malibu, California
After celebrating with DX at the Sandbox, the entire WWE and NXT roster headed to the West Coast for the Rock's party in Malibu, California. As excited as everyone was to hang out with the Rock all night, the wrestlers were still digesting the bombshell dropped on them by Professor Kendrick Alexander. That news being that Sasha Banks, was in fact, a McMahon.
Sasha was actually the daughter of Shane McMahon but it had been kept a secret for over 30 years. While this news was great for everyone else, it was turbulent for Seth Rollins, who was not sure of how his wife was going to react to the news that her father was not who she thought he was. The God Girls believed that this was the breakthrough that Seth and Sasha needed in order to be reunited. But the leader of the God Girls insisted that they be cautious and reserve any complete declaration of victory until after Shane had spoken to Sasha himself.
Roman Reigns couldn't believe it when Seth told him that Sasha Banks was a McMahon and Seth had no problem telling Roman that he wasn't sure how to feel about it himself.
"What kind of man hides the fact that he's the father of Sasha Banks from the world? If Sasha was my daughter I'd be shouting it from the housetop!" Seth asked Roman as they walked down towards the BayRock beach house together. The roster had changed into much cooler clothes because Southern California was very hot, though nothing was hotter than the news about Sasha right now.
"Its complicated Seth, this is amazing news," Roman said. "I'm sure Shane didn't want anything making him look bad to get out in public. He's a public figure and that's why he probably didn't want to bring any attention to the fact that he had an outside kid,"
"Unlike you," Seth said cheekily and Roman nodded with a smile.
"Hey I'm proud of my outside kid. Abiyah is the man and you and Sasha are doing a great job raising him," Roman said.
"See that's my point, you're proud of your son, why couldn't Shane tell Sasha that he was proud of her?" Seth said as Roman adjusted a bunch of Seth's bigger curls with his hand.
"I mean, look at everything she's accomplished? She was the Boss before she even knew she was the Boss. Maybe this is the source of our problems Roman."
Roman came closer to Seth as they walked to the BayRock beach house with the rest of the roster, "What do you mean?" he asked Seth still fixing his best friend's curls.
"She's so scared she's going to lose me and maybe that's because she never had a real connection to her father," Seth said and he touched his heart feeling his wife's pain. "I love my wife so much, if she accepts this as good news, we could finally be reunited! But if she doesn't, the pain will keep going and the cycle will continue over and over again. I pray that she will not be the thick headed, stubborn pain-in-the-butt that she can be so we can all move on together,"
"Amen!" Roman said. "Stubborn Sasha ain't good for anyone,"
"Still," Seth said cautiously, "I understand if she rejects Shane's connection to her. It will be hard but whatever she decides to do, we'll get through it together,"
"Amen and Amen!" Roman said. "And I'll be there for all of you,"
"Thanks brother," Seth said to Roman and he hugged him as they entered the BayRock beach house.
"Anytime," Roman replied with a smile and he kissed Seth on the top of his head before patting down some of Seth's rogue curls that were twisting in the wrong direction. "That's better, now you look perfect,"
Just behind them, the God Girls spoke amongst each other, dressed in cool linen with Miss Alexander right by them. ATM had told the God Girls to watch Miss Alexander like a hawk, as now that she was on their side, she was open to attack. The God Girls were now closer that they had ever expected to getting Seth and Sasha back together but it was going to be a fight once the news got out that the secret that the McMahon family had been hiding about Sasha for years, there was going to be trouble.
"Guys we got trouble!" The Rock said coming out to greet everyone as they arrived.
"What's wrong baby?" Bayley asked her husband kissing his cheek.
"Man you look hot," Rock said to Bayley. "My problems just shrank now that I've seen your beautiful face,"
An entourage of men walked behind the Rock wearing Royal Saudi head dress and soon after emerged, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.
"I've come to see Seth Rollins," the Crown Prince said and Seth came forward with a smile. "There's my Royal Counsel. Please tell me why you were not in Riyadh with your wife last week? I expected you to guard the Royal Palace together, please explain your absence?"
"He won't let me start the party," The Rock said to Bayley. "Dude just walks into our beach house and starts acting like he owns the place!"
Seth explained to the Prince why he had been in the States while Sasha was in Riyadh with Abiyah and Faith Star and Queen Melina and Bayley.
"So, Stephanie McMahon is causing trouble for me now too," the Prince said to Seth. "First, she steals your property, now she's interfering in official Saudi business by separating a husband from his wife. The time has come for me to do something about this Mr Rollins. I expected you and your wife to be there and you were not. That makes me look incompetent, this woman has embarrassed my family and it will not happen again,"
"What are you saying Prince?" Seth asked for clarity and Hunter leaned into Seth.
"I think he's saying he hates Stephanie as much as we do," Hunter said.
"What I'm saying Mr Helmsley, is that I will not be prevented from doing what's right for my country by your ex-wife. I did my research, I know all about the McMahon-Helmsley era and the problems between you and your ex-wife are now affecting Mr Rollins and his family. As my Royal Counsel, I cannot have Seth Rollins running after this woman like some starving raccoon. Might I suggest you make your claim to take ownership of the WWE again, so that Seth and Sasha can return to Saudi Arabia to fulfil their royal function as per our agreement?"
"But your Highness, this has nothing to do with DX. Seth and Sasha are separated because if they are seen together, an evil child will use her Gift from God to keep them separated. By working for Stephanie McMahon, Seth is keeping his wife safe and in the States where we can keep an eye on her," Bianca Belair explained. "Seth and Sasha cannot return to your country until we have stopped this child from using her Gift of God against Sasha Rollins,"
"Once again, you are letting this evil woman control your lives and it is interfering in my business. This is not how we do things in my country," the Prince said to Bianca Belair and he looked at Seth Rollins. "You know how we do things in my country Seth Rollins,"
Seth gulped, "Yes your Highness, I am fully aware. If Stephanie McMahon were to do what she's done here on Saudi soil she's be stoned to death," he said.
"That right and since she is messing up my plans, I will find a way to have her stoned, outside of my country," the Prince said and DX and the God Girls gasped at his words.
The Prince turned to Triple H, "I would warn your ex-wife that her days are numbered so when you visit her and tell her your intention to take back the WWE, let her know that I told you to your face, that her days are numbered," he said before turning back to Seth with a smile. "I expect to see you and your beautiful wife and son back in Saudi very soon. I must repay you for what you have done for me as a family. I cannot honour your amazing wife for what she did without you by her side,"
Seth nodded though his stomach was twisted with concern for Stephanie McMahon.
"Your Highness, as a Christian, my job is preach the saving love of Jesus Christ and it was never my Saviour's will, that any man should perish, but that all would come to the saving grace of our God. As evil and as wicked and cruel as Stephanie McMahon is, stoning her is not an option. I will not stand for such actions, we will continue to do things our way, in a way that is pleasing to our God. I hope you understand," Seth said.
"Your friends can save me the trouble of having to take matters into my own hands if they get through to her. I will not suffer anymore delay and I will see you and your wife and family in Saudi Arabia very soon," the Prince replied with a smile. "See you soon Seth Rollins,"
The Prince waved goodbye to a nervous roster and he left with his entourage and Seth turned to his entourage.
"The only thing that will change Stephanie's mind is the DX jewels and she ain't getting them," Seth said to the God Girls.
"That's right, so let's go party. Her fate is sealed and there's nothing we can do about it," Hunter said coming over to Seth and the God Girls.
"Maybe there's nothing we can do about it but there might be something Beth Hardy can do about it. If she realises her mother's life is in danger-" Becky started but Hunter cut her off.
"Let me stop you right there Becky. Beth Hardy will not get through to her mother. I know my ex-wife and I'm telling you she's done for. I will go see her at the Prince's request but I'm going to start planning for her funeral. The Prince of Saudi Arabia takes himself very seriously and now that he knows what she's doing, he will execute her whether we like it or not.
He's on a whole other level of authority and Stephanie will not acknowledge it until she gets those jewels," Hunter said.
"You do your part Hunter and we'll do ours," Seth said and he turned back to the God Girls. "Keep me informed about Shane and Sasha, if that conversation goes well, we might be able to expedite this whole thing without getting Beth Hardy involved. I'll keep you all covered in prayer and Miss Alexander as-well. Let's do this thing girls, there are a lot of lives at stake,"
"Yes Seth," the God Girls said together and Seth reached out to Bianca.
"How's the baby?" he asked her warmly squeezing her hand.
"My baby's fine Seth, we just want you to be with yours," she said and the God Girls nodded.
"Thank you Bianca, I know my baby girl is safe in her mother's womb as long as Faith Star and Abiyah are with her. This separation is killing us both but we'll get through this, we can get through anything Stephanie throws at us," Seth declared and the God Girls nodded in agreement while Roman listened on close by.
"God I hope Hunter gets through to Stephanie. She has a Royal hit out on her now. How can one women have so many enemies?" Roman said and the Rock shrugged.
"Because you're not doing anything worth knowing until your enemies outnumber your friends," the Rock responded and he walked away from Roman, leaving the Tribal Chief with a very uneasy feeling which he promptly told Seth Rollins about. He thought that his cousin might have an ulterior motive for inviting the entire roster to the beach house. After speaking with Roman, Seth stuck to the God Girls like glue and Bayley found herself torn between two men, and for the first time, she hated it.
