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 Twenty Four – The Great Escape

The Farasan Islands, Jezen, Saudi Arabia

Angelo Dawkins pulled himself onto the land gasping for air after being dumped into the Red Sea.
He looked around at the sand and a solitary palm tree.

"What is this?" he said to himself. He couldn't see anyone and as he looked out over the water, he realised that he was on an island in the middle of nowhere. He knew for sure that he wasn't in America but he wasn't sure where he was now. He sat under the palm tree and prayed to God for help, instead he heard a loud growl and saw a huge Arabian Oryx that almost sent him back into the water.

Detention prison, Eritrea

Kofi Kingston looked up at the flashlight shining in his eyes and some man with a gun was yelling at him in a language he didn't understand. Eventually the men left to attend to some inmates that had reached the coast and illegally entered the country.

"Where the Hell am I?" Kofi asked himself and the man next to him turned to face him.

"You speak English?" he said and Kofi nodded. "Then pray that God will get you out of here,"

The sound of a man screaming pierced the air and the man nudged Kofi on the arm.

"Pray now or you'll be next!" he warned Kofi and the former WWE Champion prayed that God would rescue him from whatever prison he had been Transcended to.

Al Qatan, Yemen

It was raining and Carmella found herself under a huge army green sheet inside a jeep. She was surrounded by other women, some of them were related and it was clear that they were not supposed to be seen. The jeep suddenly stopped and Carmella tried to peek out of the huge green sheet to see what was happening. One of the women pushed her back and yelled at her in her native language. Obviously, the woman did not want Carmella to move lest they be seen.

"This is the only way to get in Saudi Arabia without getting caught," one of the English-speaking women said.

"What?!" Carmella said loudly. "I don't have to sneak into Saudi Arabia, I'm a WWE Superstar, we come to Saudi all the time and put on a great show. This is ridiculous I'm getting us out of here,"

"Be quiet you stupid American woman!" the English speaking woman yelled at Carmella.

"Settle down sister and let me show you what being an American is all about!" Carmella said and she yanked the huge sheet back revealing herself and the other illegally smuggled women and the men negotiating the terms of their entry into Saudi turned and looked back at them angrily.

"You!" one of the men said pointing at Carmella. "You can come in!"

Carmella looked at the man with disdain, "I don't need your permission to do anything now get out of the way. These women are coming with me,"

The men with guns pointed them at the women in the jeep and Carmella gasped in horror wondering what awful situation she had just been Transcended into.

Across the Saudi Arabian sky, Seth, Alexa and Bayley were flying on Shawl having already rescued the majority of the roster and taken them back to the royal palace in Riyadh. They were looking for the Superstars who were still missing and Seth was so thankful to God that they had found almost everyone. Alexa prayed for Seth's strength while Bayley smiled at them both amazed at their ability to hear from God who told them exactly where to find everyone. Apart from Bayley herself, most of the Superstars had been found in the most dangerous situations imaginable.

"Let's head that way Shawl," Seth said pointing down to the Farasan Island in Jizen, Saudi Arabia.

Bayley gasped as they drew closer to the island and saw Angelo Dawkins corned by an Arabian Oryx. Mostly protected and highly prized in Saudi, this Oryx seemed to have gotten out of preservation and was fully in the wild and about to do some serious damage to a perceived invader. As far as the Oryx was concerned, Dawkins was on its turf and it was time to say goodbye.

After getting close enough, Seth jumped off Shawl and landed in-between Dawkins and the Oryx.

"Here kitty kitty kitty," Seth said sweetly to the Oryx and the cheetah looking like predator purred like a cat and allowed Seth to stroke him. "Get on Shawl," he said to Angelo Dawkins who hurried onto Seth's flying prayer shawl while Seth petted the very dangerous animal.

"Aw, can we keep him?" Bayley said smiling down at the tamed beast.

"Yeah right, the fear of God will make the wildest creature seem approachable. That won't last once we get off this island," Seth said and he left the Oryx licking itself before jumping back onto Shawl, where he embraced a thankful Street Profit and headed off to find Kofi and Carmella.

Royal Palace, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Carmella exhaled deeply while Bayley comforted her, a cup of Marrakesh tea in her hands and the horror of what she had experienced way in the past.

"I can't believe you saved me Seth," she said as Seth went around checking on everyone that had been rescued to make sure they were alright. Carmella and Kofi were the last two Superstars to be found and both, like everyone else on the roster, were extremely grateful to Seth for finding them.

When Seth found Carmella, she was about to experience human trafficking. When Seth found Kofi, he was minutes away from being tortured by local militants who had taken over that whole region in Eritrea. They, like everyone else, had been rescued just in time. The people left behind were not so lucky and as grateful as Seth was that he had completed the rescue mission for the Superstars, he was grieved by the fact that not everyone had that happy ending.

The Crown Prince had put on a feast for the Superstars and there was enough room in the palace to accommodate everyone until they were ready to go back to the United States. After talking to a few of the Superstars, it was clear to Seth that not everyone wanted to go back to America just yet.

"We need a guarantee that Stephanie has found her marbles before we go back," Damien Priest said. "Who's to say that this won't happen again when we go home? Why is she even doing this?"

The Superstars discussed the crazy events involving Stephanie and Beth Hardy amongst themselves and Seth tried his best to calm them all down, though he completely understood everybody's distress.

"Guys I'd love to assure you right now but I'm waiting on some information myself before I can tell you everything is alright. I'm so glad you're all here and safe and sound and that I don't have to call each of your loved ones and tell them I don't know what happened to you. The Prince has promised to look after you while Sasha and I are here. I really love you guys but now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to spend some time with my wife and family," Seth said with a tired smile and everyone applauded him.

"You're so much better at this God stuff then you are at being Stephanie's Executive Assistant," Carmella told him and Seth tried not to shudder at the mention of Stephanie's name.

"Drink your tea Carmella and try to stay warm, you were out in that rain for a long time. I'll see you guys later," Seth said before heading off to find his wife and Abiyah, both of whom he missed dearly.

Sasha was in her royal bedroom playing with Abiyah while Faith Star combed her hair. Seth's jaw dropped at the sight of Abiyah's hair.

"My God, Abi's hair looks like a fur coat!" Seth said picking up his son and falling back onto the bed before giving Abiyah a kiss.

"Daddy!" Abiyah cried jubilantly waving his little blue bear back and forth excitedly and Seth embraced his son while the Boss continued to have her hair combed.

"I know it's been growing non-stop. Our son is the female Rapunzel," Sasha said and Faith Star stopped combing Sasha's hair to take Abiyah from Seth.

"Let's go play in the nursery Abi, I'm sure your folks wanna reunite without you drooling all over them," Faith Star said but Seth wouldn't let his son go just yet.

"Actually Faith Star I wanted to talk to you, don't take Abi away just yet," Seth said sitting up and Sasha came over to Seth and caressed his back.

"Babe you look so tired," she said kissing Seth affectionately on the cheek and she squeezed his arm supportively.

"I've been flying around on Shawl rescuing the roster but I ain't complaining. I'm just glad they're all okay," Seth said and Faith Star smiled happy that everyone was okay. "Faith Star, I was wondering how you felt about being here with us. I know God assigned you to my son but with all you've done,
I think it would be best if you went home to your family when we return to the United States,"

Faith Star thought about it, her little blond curls sat neatly on top of her head as she contemplated going home to her folks that she hadn't really seen in months.

"I've seen some wild stuff since taking on this assignment Uncle Seth. I've seen giant blue bears and terrorist attacks and God's preserved me and Abiyah through it all. It would be crazy to go home and miss all this. My parents don't really get into these adventures anymore, it'll be hard to go back to normal," she said and Seth smiled at her even though he really felt like yawning.

"I'm sure you've also seen my wife cry because she misses me so much and I can't ignore how our separation might have affected you. I know you've been looking after Abiyah but seeing my wife ball her eyes out every night because of how much she misses me, I can see why that might be disturbing for a child so used to being around two loving parents," Seth said and Faith Star nodded.

"It's true, Aunt Sasha missed you a lot but she never thought it would last. She was sure you'd be back together soon and here you are, right next to her in Saudi Arabia just like you were supposed to be months ago. Even though the original plan was messed up by evil Aunt Steph, Sasha held her own and we took out those terrorists as a team; Sasha with her Blue Thunder and Abiyah with his Blue Bear. Now, here you are, rescuing the roster with Shawl, Alexa and Bayley. You still completed your agreement by helping the Saudi Prince like you said you would, even though you couldn't do it together, you still did it whether you were together or not. That's inspiration to me, even though you're parents you can still get the job done when you're not together, how awesome is that?" Faith Star said and Seth smiled and leaned over to Sasha to place a silent kiss on her cheek.

"You used Blue Thunder?" he said quietly and Sasha blushed.

"Can we talk about that later? Faith Star is giving us the toast of a lifetime," Sasha said knowing how Seth felt about her unauthorised Gift from God.

Seth turned back to Faith Star, "I know you've been having the time of your life with this assignment Faith Star but I do think the right thing for you to do is go home to your parents. I love your parents for being obedient to God and letting you be by my son's side all this time but I also know, as a parent myself, that they must miss you like crazy," Seth said and he ruffled Faith Star's curls just the way Shawn Michaels used to ruffle his son Cameron's years before Faith Star was even born. "So, you're going home kid,"

Faith Star sighed, "Fine Uncle Seth, I'll go home," she said and she smiled at Abiyah, "Its been fun Abi and something tells me its going to be even more fun for you without me watching over you every second," she said and she hugged Abiyah who sensed that something was happening but he wasn't sure what.

A loud growl suddenly got Abiyah's attention and Sasha furrowed her brow.

"What was that Seth?" she said and Alexa Bliss knocked at the door.

"Come in," Seth said and Alexa opened up to show an Arabian Oryx, in fact it was the Arabian Oryx that tried to attack Angelo Dawkins on the Farasan Islands.

"I'm sorry Seth, I couldn't get him to stop clawing at the furniture," Alexa said.

"That's okay Lexi," Seth said and he patted the bed and the Oryx jumped up next to Seth much to the delight of both Abiyah and Sasha. "I thought I'd have to leave him behind but God said Abiyah could handle him. Honey, I got us a pet,"

"Oh he's beautiful! What's his name?" Sasha asked Seth delighted.

"Ra-Ra!" Abiyah said making a big cat noise.

"Ra-Ra, his name is Ra-Ra," Seth said. "at least that's what Abi's calls him, I'll refer to him as our pet cat,"

"Man you go big or go home don't you baby?" Sasha said petting Ra-Ra along with Abiyah and Faith Star.

"Uncle Seth, I changed my mind, I wanna stay with you and play with the kitty," Faith Star said and Seth furrowed his brow.

"Kitty? He's an Arabian Oryx, not an ordinary kitty," Seth said.

"I know, that's why I wanna play with him!" Faith Star said.

"You're going home kid, LC and Cameron can get you a pet cat of their own, this one's ours. Speaking of things that are ours," Seth said. "We can officially move into the Sandbox thanks to the Royal Decree that the Saudi Prince issued on my behalf. Whenever we're done here wrapping up things with the Prince, we can go home babe,"

Sasha smiled, "The Prince did that for you, how awesome is that?" Sasha said and Seth nodded while caressing his wife's pregnant stomach, something he hadn't done in months.

"Being a servant of God comes with its benefits and Royal Decrees just so happen to be one of them," Seth said and he laid back and gave a huge yawn before Ra-Ra licked his face. "Ew, yuck!"

"Ha-ha!" Abiyah and Faith Star laughed as they played around with Ra-Ra who was completely smitten with them both and Sasha watched the children play with the Oryx in amazement.

"Man, this is just like Aladdin," Alexa said and Sasha nodded that it was, "I mean, Ra-Ra might as-well be Jasmine's pet tiger Asa!"

"Please Lexi give me a break. You're gonna stand there and compare our Arabian Oryx to that two bit tiger from a Disney movie?" Seth said with disdain and Alexa chuffed.

"How many white tigers have you owned Seth?" Alexa said and Seth waved her away.

"Bye Alexa," he said from the bed as Alexa left.

"Bye Seth, welcome home Boss, or is that Miss McMahon?" Alexa teased Sasha before she left and Sasha looked down at Seth who had fallen asleep and she stroked his big black curls backwards out of his face lovingly.

"Its Rollins," she replied and she lay next to her husband and hugged him as he slept, not soon after, she was asleep too. Seth and Sasha were reunited and for the first time in a long time, nobody was trying to split them up and it felt pretty good, almost too good for the Boss to believe it would last much longer.
