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 Twenty Two – The Joy Ride Part 2

BayRock, Malibu, California

The Rock held Bayley has they looked over the ocean, the water was gently moving across the horizon as the sun set on another beautiful evening in Southern California. Rocky rubbed his wife's back and kissed her on the head as she held onto his waist feeling his warm body support her as she thought about Sasha and Seth reuniting. For the first time in forever, Bayley was happy that Seth and Sasha were together again. Her born again spirit changed the way she felt about them, now instead of making her boil up with rage, knowing that the Rollins were reunited brought a smile to her face.

"I wish I could stay here with you forever," Bayley said as the Rock rubbed her gently across her back. "But I have to go to New York. Bianca's gone to Saudi Arabia with Alexa and Charlotte's still at the Ortons and we have a rule that no God Girl can be left alone,"

Rocky sighed, "Please stay here a little longer, I have a movie shoot with John Cena next week and I want some good memories to take to New Zealand with me," he said kissing Bayley's head lovingly.

Bayley swelled at the sensation of Rocky's kiss, "I shouldn't even be here DJ; Bianca told me to stay put and here I am cosying up to you like its spring break. I don't want to leave you either but I'm a God Girl in training and I have to do what I'm told," she said and Rocky gave another deep sigh before stepping back from Bayley and looking at her with a warm smile.

"Fine, I'll let you go, but first let's say goodbye the right way," he said and Bayley reached up and embraced the Rock who imitated the actions of the sun going down with his pretty little wife lighting up with the skyline against her.

"Wow, bad timing eh?" came the caustic voice of Stephanie McMahon who stood at the entrance of the bay window with her daughter Beth Hardy.

Bayley shot up at the sound of her voice, her mood immediately switching to the demeanour of an attack dog.

"What are you doing here?" Rocky asked Stephanie.

"Well that depends, are you still with me or have you decided to switch back to the DX side of this war?" Stephanie asked the Rock. "Be careful how you answer that question Rocky, your answer will determine what we do next,"

The Rock turned serious and Bayley noticed a change in his facial expression, "I need more time," he said and Bayley looked at him critically.

"What are you talking about?" she asked him.

"If I could have just a little more time I know I'll get through to her but please Stephanie, don't do anything until I get through to her," Rocky said and Bayley tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention.

"Baby, what are you talking about?" she asked him again.

"I'm talking about you," he replied. "I need you back on Stephanie's side. Seth and the God Girls have brainwashed you and unless I can convince you to part ways with them, I can't protect you from what's going to happen next,"

Bayley's face melted with shock, "Are you telling me you're with Stephanie McMahon? Do you know what she did to the roster? She used Beth Hardy to Transcend everyone of our friends out of the country,"

"And that's exactly what I'm going to have Beth do to you unless you switch back to my side Bayley Johnson," Stephanie said.

"You can't use Transcendence on God Girl," Bayley said avidly but she was mistaken.

"Newsflash Bayley big mouth, you're not a God Girl yet, you're a God Girl in training. Beth can Transcend you just like that," Stephanie said with a click of her fingers.

"Unless you stay on our side," Rocky told Bayley and the God Girl in training couldn't believe what she was hearing. She suddenly felt very alone in Malibu, standing in her beach house with the man of her dreams, wanting to be with her friends, particularly Charlotte Flair who was waiting for her in New York with the Ortons.

"I can't believe I'm hearing this, you're working against Seth. You're still mad at him aren't you? You think he's in love with me don't you?" Bayley said.

"I'm in love with you and I don't want to lose you to anyone. Why should I have to share you with the people God says you should spend time with? We should be together and Stephanie understands that, Seth and the God Girls will never understand that," Rocky said and Bayley refused to believe what she was hearing.

"You can't believe that anything good can come out of taking sides with Stephanie McMahon, not after everything she's done?" Bayley said.

"No that's where you're wrong Bayley," Stephanie said coming closer to Rocky's wife. "Only good things will come of taking sides with me. If you choose to stay on the God Girl path, your life will get considerably worse. Now make your choice, your husband already has, now its your turn,"

Bayley pushed Stephanie back aggressively before turning to her husband, "Don't do this, don't make a deal with this woman she can't be trusted and she will lose if she goes up against Seth and the God Girls. I don't want you to go down with her, please don't switch to her side baby!"

Rocky looked into the eyes of his beautiful wife and he turned to Stephanie with pleading eyes, "Please Stephanie, please give me more time. I know I can get through to her just give me a little more time!"

Stephanie's face hardened, "I'm sorry Rocky but her time is up," Stephanie said and she gave Beth Hardy a nod and within a flash, Bayley was Transcended out of the country.

"No!" Rocky said and he fell to his knees, "I just needed one more night Stephanie, why did you take my wife away from me?"

"Because I will stop at nothing to win this war against Seth and the God Girls. I'm sorry Rocky but she's just a casualty of this war and I haven't even gotten started yet. Now get off your knees, we've got work to do. Finn Balor and the two Kenny's are expecting us, they're waiting for us downtown, let's go," Stephanie said and the Rock got to his feet slowly and followed Stephanie and Beth to downtown Santa Monica. Unbeknownst to them, a certain God Girl was waiting for them with a plan of her own.

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Seth and Sasha flew across the sky with Faith Star and Abiyah, looking down at the crowds gathering around what appeared to be two people holding their Bibles up like shields around a frightened young woman.

"There they are!" Seth called out pointing down at Pastor Mac and Miss Glee. "Shawl, touch down now!"

Seth's prayer shawl glided down to where the African American Christians were protecting MacKenzie Helmsley from the people about to stone them for proselytising in a public place. Mac was surrounded by her father and Miss Glee but she was trying to get out from under them so she could protect them from being stoned.

"Dad, you get under me," MacKenzie cried out but her father wouldn't move.

"You just stay put right here Missy, if anyone's going to take the hit for Jesus its me, the Senior Pastor of Clearwater Baptist Church, not you and not Miss Glee," Pastor Mac said.

"I don't want to see you get hurt!" Mac argued with her father and Miss Glee took off her hat and buried MacKenzie under it.

"You take shelter under this, we'll show these heathens what it means to be a Christian. The best that we can hope for is that they spare you like they did Abraham's wife because she was so beautiful," Miss Glee said. "I've never heard of a beautiful woman being stoned to death,"

"Then you've never been on my wife's Instagram page," Seth said surprising the MacKenzie's and Miss Glee.

Mac's face lit up like a Christmas tree when she saw Seth, "Seth, you're here!" she gasped hugging Seth and then she saw Sasha waving at her from Shawl with Alexa Bliss.

"Get on, come on we'll get you back to the royal palace. The Prince is expecting you," Seth said and the MacKenzie's and Miss Glee climbed onto Shawl and hugged Sasha, Abiyah and Faith Star.

"Wait, Seth," Pastor Mac said. "Aren't you coming with us?"

Alexa jumped down off of Shawl, "No, we've got work to do here. We'll see you back at the palace later," Seth said and Sasha opened her arms and Seth came over to her so she could close her arms around him.

"I love you so much, you're my hero Seth Rollins," Sasha said affectionately and they kissed each other sweetly before parting. As Shawl ascended, Mac felt tears rolling down her eyes as she thought of her husband that Stephanie had so cruelly separated her from. Sasha hugged her as she cried on their way to the safety of the Royal Palace, leaving Alexa and Seth to find someone else who had been cruelly separated from her love by Stephanie McMahon.

"Bayley's around here somewhere," Seth said standing back to back with Alexa as the men holding stones dropped their weapons of judgement and backed off. One of the men didn't think much of Alexa's skinny jeans and he threw a stone at her before running away.

"Ow!" Alexa cried out clutching her leg and Seth quickly attended to her.

"Lexi, are you alright?" he asked her concerned as Alexa winced in pain.

"No that really hurt, those stones are huge!" Alexa said and Seth picked her up in his arms and carried her away from the town centre. The bruise on Alexa's leg was spreading and Seth needed to put healing balm on her leg.

Riyadh Zoo

They left the Al Zahara district and headed to a place where they could apply the balm without being conspicuous. As foreigners, the last thing Seth and Alexa wanted to do was draw attention to themselves. Alexa looked up at the monkeys swinging around and realised where they were.

"The zoo Seth, really?" Alexa said as Seth laid her down behind the monkey enclave.

"Take your jeans off," Seth said and Alexa moaned in agony as she slid her jeans off so Seth could apply the healing balm to her severely bruised upper thigh.

"Oh, that's so much better," Alexa said pulling her jeans back up and Seth pocketed the balm and helped Alexa to her feet.

"Wow, I guess it was only a matter of time before Seth got in your pants, eh Lexi?" came the sweet voice of Bayley who was inside the zoo with the monkeys.

"Will you get out of there?" Seth said coming over to her as Bayley fed the monkeys.

"I'm having a good time right now Seth, I just lost my husband and these monkeys are making me feel better," Bayley said and Seth jumped into the enclave and hauled Bayley out.

"I'm sorry about Dwayne, but we've got work to do. Thank God we found you here, we've got to find the roster now," he said and the monkeys protested as Bayley walked away from them. "Great, now they like you. That's the effect you have on God's creatures,"

"It was pretty nice of Beth Hardy to Transcend you to a place you wouldn't get hurt, she obviously didn't want to do this," Alexa said and Bayley nodded.

"I don't hate Beth for Transcending me away from DJ, I blame Stephanie for this," Bayley said.

"Don't blame Stephanie, blame the devil inside of her, that's who we have to get rid of," Seth said as the monkeys yelled at him for taking Bayley out of the enclave.

Bayley gave Seth a hug and waved goodbye to the monkeys before walking over to Alexa.

Seth looked back at the monkeys who seconds later after missing Bayley's presence, started to play happily amongst themselves.

Alexa and Bayley noticed him staring at the monkeys and they came over to him.

"Something wrong Seth?" Alexa asked him.

"No, its just looking at all these monkeys makes me think about the locker room. Let's go find our friends and bring them back to safety," Seth said and they walked out of the zoo, united in their cause relying solely on the Holy Spirit to find their friends and get them out of whatever place Beth Hardy had Transcended them to. Hopefully they'd find them all in a happy place but something told them that the rest of the locker room wouldn't get the God Girl in training treatment that Bayley had gotten. The sooner they found their friends the better and there was no more time for monkey business.
