Chapter 21 : Mexico
On The Plane to Mexico
" What are you laughing at Andy ? " Grace asked looking at her traveling companion laughing at how much she was holding on to the seat during take off .
" You white knuckling it over there , I ' m surprised that you are afraid of flying . " Andy holding his ribs .
" I ' m not afraid of flying , Vampire Lord , it ' s the taking off and landing I have a problem with . " Grace said calming down once the plane levelled out .
" Didn ' t you go to Puerto Rico with Chase ? " Andy asked .
" And Derrick , they laughed at me too . " Grace said .
" I bet , " Andy chuckled .
" I ' m good now , " Grace shook her head .
" You don ' t look worried today . " Andy said .
" I ' m not , I ' m excited . " Grace said realizing that this tournament in Mexico was a big opportunity for her to show how far she had come in her wrestling career .
" About the tournament ? " Andy asked .
" Yes , this is when I get see how far I ' ve come since dad and Cowboy trained me . " Grace said .
" Just remember to do your best and everything will be fine , Grace . " Andy said .
Grace looked at Andy with confidence before looking out the window next to her wondering what it would be like to hold a championship belt .
Chase and Traci ' s House
" So you finally got to meet Angela ' s parents , Little Natural ? " Chase asked as Andy Jr. was helping him put the crib together for the coming addition to the Stevens ' family .
" Yes , it wasn ' t as bad as I thought it would be , " Andy Jr. said as he looked at Talia looking at Traci eating pickles and ice cream like it was gross .
" How do you eat that stuff ? " Talia asked curiously .
" It ' s called cravings , Talia . " Traci said .
" You can call it whatever you want , but I ' m calling it yucky . Uncle Chase are you eating this stuff too ? " Talia asked as Katie was laughing at the look the little one gave Chase .
" No , definitely not , Princess Talia . So , why did you think Angela ' s parents were going to be bad to meet ? " Chase chuckled at Talia before looking back at Andy Jr. to continue their conversation .
" Her dad is in the military and I was afraid if he didn ' t like me then I would get shot or something . " Andy Jr. whispered to Chase .
" Oh , yeah , that ' s true , but as long as you remain yourself and be good to Angela they will love you no matter what , Little A . " Chase said .
" Even that grumpy aunt of her ' s that seems content with making Angela miserable ? " Andy Jr. asked .
" You can ' t please everyone , but you still need to show that you will be a gentleman to Angela and that you will take care of her . " Chase explained .
" Yes sir , " Andy Jr . said .
" So , where is Angela ' s mother ? " Chase asked .
" She ' s there with them at the house , but she was in a car wreck when Angela was little and hasn ' t been able to walk since then , so , Angela ' s aunt stays with them to tend to Angela ' s mom and be there when Angela gets home from school . But , she ' s not very nice to Angela , always complaining about her and calling her brat . I don ' t get it , when dad ' s gone you don ' t do that to me or Talia , so , why does this lady feel like she has the right to be mean to Angela ? " Andy Jr. asked looking at Talia .
" Some people just have a chip on their shoulder and feel it ' s best to make others miserable so they don ' t feel as bad or something like that , it maybe that Angela ' s aunt resents something or something tramatic happened to her , I don ' t know , but all you can do is be there for Angela and maybe that will help the both of you . " Chase said .
" Do you talk to your parents about this stuff , Fangs ? " Traci asked .
" I do , Aunt Traci , but sometimes it ' s good to get a different opinion than mom and dad ' s especially when I need to see things from every side of the same coin , I ask Pops hard questions too . " Andy Jr . said .
" Speaking of Franchise , when are you going out there to him ? " Chase asked .
" I ' m already going out there on weekends with Dakota , on some Saturday afternoons he has us working with Coach D ' Amore though and Petey has been out there as well . " Andy Jr . said .
" So , you two are really being trained . " Chase said .
" Yes , Pops said something about having one of the tag teams within the family come out to help us . " Andy Jr. said .
" Really ? " Chase asked .
" Of course , he also said that he wouldn ' t take you and dad from your busy schedules this time with you on the road and dad managing Grace . " Andy Jr. said .
" I see , " Chase realizing what Shane was doing .
" Chris is coming upon his last week of therapy , " Traci said .
" Yeah , which is good as we need him on the frontlines to help deal with KHAOS . " Chase said .
Talia started yawning like she was sleepy .
" Are you tired little one ? " Traci asked .
" A little , " Talia said .
" It is about time for your nap , " Andy Jr. said .
" Nap , only babies take naps and I ' m not a baby . " Talia said .
" Here we go with you getting fussy again . " Andy Jr. said once the crib was put together .
" I ' m not fussy , bubba , " Talia said as Andy Jr. picked her up and sat in the rocking chair in Chase ' s living room with his sister .
Chase watched as Andy Jr. got Talia to go to sleep as he rocked her .
" Hmm , I may need to hire you as babysitter some nights , buddy . " Chase said .
" Dad says I have the magic touch . " Andy Jr. said quietly as he laid Talia on the couch letting her sleep .
Harris House
" Almost there , " Chris sighed relieved he only had a few more therapy sessions left before he could start getting back in shape to wrestle and to help the family combat KHAOS .
" Good , I need my other partner back in action . " Storm said drinking on a beer as the Wildcat ' s cell phone rang .
" Hello , " Chris answered the phone .
" Bet it ' s Grace . " Rosie said walking into the room .
" So , you guys landed in Mexico , okay , good that means you two won ' t have to deal with any members of KHAOS alone if they show up . " Chris said .
" Maybe she will bring home the belt . " James whispered to Rosie .
" Okay , be careful both of you , " Chris said before he ended the conversation and hung up the phone .
" Grace and Andy landed in Mexico ? " James asked .
" Yeah , they were at the first event when she called . " Chris said .
" Wrestlers have to fight even after they take a long flight to where ever they are going ? " Rosie asked .
" All the time , " Chris said .
" So , what was the first event ? " Storm asked .
" Battle Royal , they wanted to get down to the final eight out of fifteen or something like that . " Chris explained .
" So , the final eight would make up the rest of the tournament meaning she has to go through three more matches to get the championship . " Storm said .
" Who was with Grace and Andy ? " Rosie asked .
" Konnan and Homicide , " Chris said .
" Meaning they have back up if KHAOS wants to pull something , " Storm said .
" Yeah , " Chris said .
" Good , " Storm said as Jessie walked in the door with the twins .
" Hey , " Jessie said .
" Hey , Grace called to let me know they landed . " Chris said .
" Which means you are not worrying yourself to death . " Jessie said making James and Rosie laugh .
" Oh , my lady is being sarcastic . " Chris sighed .
" She ' s a Harris too , dad . " Rosie said .
" Exactly baby , " Jessie said kissing Rosie on the forehead making CJ and RJ laugh .
Mexico
After the first match in the tournament , Grace and Andy finally got to their hotel with Grace on a high after she made it through the Battle Royal as one of the final eight in the match meaning she advanced to the next stage of the tournament for the AAA Title .
" Final three in the match isn ' t a bad place to end up in a Battle Royal , " Andy said .
" It ' s even better knowing I secured a spot in the rest of the tournament . " Grace walked into the room with Andy after getting cleaned up .
" Are you worried ? " Andy asked her .
" No , I ' m actually excited and exhausted from the match tonight . " Grace said as Andy noticed that she did look tired .
" Long flight and a match afterwards , I ' m surprised you handled it so well . " Andy said .
" Your partner told me one time while going to Puerto Rico that I would have days where I will have to wrestle even when I feel like I ' m about to fall over . " Grace said as a knock came at the door .
Andy checked the door seeing Konnan and Homicide outside letting them into the room .
" Hey , guys , " Grace said .
" Are you two going out ? " Homicide asked .
" To celebrate ? " Andy asked .
" Yeah , " Konnan said .
" I ' m not allowed to drink , " Grace said .
" The age limit is different here , Grace , " Homicide said .
" I ' m aware , but I promised my parents that I wouldn ' t until I was 21 , so , I ' m not drinking . " Grace said .
" Andy ? " Homicide asked .
" I may stay here with Grace , but where can we get something to eat ? " Andy asked .
Konnan and Homicide gave them a few places before saying their goodbyes for the night then leaving .
" Did I say something wrong ? " Grace asked Andy .
" No , you are just different than most of the people that are apart of the business . " Andy said .
" By not drinking ? " Grace asked .
" By keeping a promise to your parents and not endangering your honor . " Andy said .
" Oh , okay , let ' s go and get some food , " Grace said .
Andy and Grace went to eat before coming back to the hotel and going to bed to be ready for the next day and the next stage of the tournament .
