Chapter 47: Wrestlemania 21
The crowd roared as the Animal made his appearance on the ramp. Lauren left his side for only moments and walked ahead to allow him to do his entrance. HHH and Flair were already in the ring, waiting for them to approach. Batista kept his arm wrapped around Lauren's waist as they walked together to the ring. They stood in front of the ring, and stared down both Flair and HHH. Batista lifted Lauren up and placed her on the apron, while jumping up to join her. Lauren held the ropes for him, as he slipped through. Lauren joined him and stood beside him to show that they weren't afraid or intimidated. The referee took the title from HHH and held it high in the air. Everyone looked up at what was at stake, what the two men were fighting for. Batista took one last look down at Lauren and simply nodded. Lauren kissed him on the cheek and slipped out of the ring. Batista watched her and winked at her with a smile. Lauren smiled in return and heard the bell echo through the ring. This is it. Lauren thought and waited for the match to start.
It was the middle of the match, and by the looks of it, both men weren't giving up any time soon. HHH had just gone for a Pedigree, only to be thrown off by Batista. Both men exchanged punches and chops. Batista tried charging HHH, only to be thrown over the top rope. Flair tried going after him, only to be shoved from behind by Lauren. Lauren started backing away from him to keep him away from Batista, when she felt something behind her. She quickly turned to see HHH smirking down at her. Lauren simply shoved him away and ran to the other side of the ring. Flair turned to get Batista again, only to find him up and about. He grabbed Flair by his shirt and threw him into the guard rail. Lauren was coming around the other side of the ring being chased by HHH. Batista ran and got Lauren behind him before HHH could get his hands on her. Batista charged HHH and clothes-lined him against the floor. He quickly hauled HHH up and tossed him into the ring.
The fight continued on, with HHH seeming to have the upper hand. He had Batista on the mat, and was choking him on the ropes. As the referee was getting HHH off and being distracted, Flair started choking Batista as well. Lauren had grabbed the title, snuck up behind him, and smacked him in the back with it. Flair went crawling away in pain as Lauren put the title back like nothing happened. She turned to see that Triple H had Batista in the middle of the ring, giving him a vertical suplex. Lauren ran back to the apron and watched as HHH ran to the ropes to use them to give him extra force for his next move. However, Lauren tripped his foot as soon as he touched the ropes. HHH fell flat on his face, only to jump right back up and turn towards Lauren. Without even blinking, HHH grabbed Lauren by the hair and hauled her onto the apron. Lauren did her best to fight him off of her, only to have him bring her over the top rope into the ring. He started yelling in her face, when Lauren gave him a low-blow with her foot. HHH instantly let go and fell to the mat groaning. She ran over to Batista to see him just getting up. Batista asked how she got in the ring, when she simply pushed him over to HHH so he'd get on with his match. Lauren slipped back out of the ring, only to feel someone grab her leg from behind and yank her off of the apron. Lauren fell hard to the ground to see that it had been none other than Gene Snitsky. No! Lauren begged in her mind. Snitsky bent down and grabbed her wrist, hauling her to her feet. Lauren looked to see Batista trying to get to her, but HHH getting in the way.
Snitsky had started pulling Lauren across the area with steel chairs. She grabbed a microphone and whacked him in the head with it. Snitsky felt her hand slip out of his, and was met with a steel chair to the head as soon as he turned around. Lauren continued to hit him until he stayed down. She threw the chair on him and looked at the match still taking place. Batista was on his feet throwing HHH against the turnbuckles. He charged him and drove his arm across his throat. HHH went to his knees, coughing from the harsh impact. As soon as Batista turned his back, HHH come up and went for a Pedigree. Batista dropped himself out of it, just before HHH could finish the move. Lauren's heart was pounding like crazy, wondering how much longer Batista could take this. HHH kept attacking, then covering, only to have Batista power out at 2. Lauren swore that each time it happened it took a year off her life. She watched as they both ended up outside the ring, with Batista throwing HHH into the steel steps multiple times, causing a wound to bust open on his head. Batista used it to his advantage as he clubbed the wound continuously.
HHH started running away, to try and get a moment's rest, as Batista slowly went after him. He didn't realize Flair was coming up behind him with a steel chair. Batista turned just in time to see Flair about to bring the chair on his head. However, Flair failed to see Lauren behind him as she grabbed the chair out of his hands before he could attack Batista. Batista then took Flair and threw him over the guardrail. He turned his attention back to HHH, who had gotten back in the ring. Flair came back and looked for the title belt, seeing that Lauren had grabbed it before he could. He grasped it in his hands, and shoved Lauren into the apron. Flair slid into the ring, and tried to hit Batista with the belt, only to get a spinebuster from him. But as Batista turned around, he was met by HHH giving him a cheap shot to the head with the title. Miraculously, he only got a 2 count. Lauren had slowly gotten back up to see Batista kick out. HHH gave the Animal a low-blow, and tried to go for the Pedigree. Batista didn't allow it, and gave the thumbs up-thumbs down signal. Batista finally nailed a Power Bomb! He covered HHH with 1...2...3! He won the match! He was now the World Heavyweight Champion!
HHH, Flair, and Snitsky walked up the ramp to the back. Lauren couldn't believe the moment was actually happening. As soon as the referee had given Batista the title, she fell to her knees and cried. She thanked God for giving him the title, and couldn't be happier. Tears of joy spilled down her face as fireworks filled the arena. She got up and slipped into the ring to see Batista still on his knees, holding the title close to him. He looked to see Lauren standing in the corner crying with him. She walked up to him, and felt him wrap his arms around her waist as he held his head against her stomach. Lauren wrapped her arms around his neck as they stood in the ring. Batista lifted Lauren up as he stood on his feet and looked up at her with a huge smile on his face. "I did it baby!" he told her.
"I know you did!" she cried. Batista put her down and just continued to hold her against him. She pulled back and motioned for him the celebrate with the fans. Batista kissed her on the forehead, and got up on the ring posts to show the arena he was now the World Heavyweight Champion he deserved to be. The crowd was going wild for the Animal, with cheers of praise. Lauren slipped through the ropes and started walking up the ramp with a smile on her face. Batista jumped down from the ring post and called out to her. She turned, still smiling, and yelled "This is your time!" Batista smiled at his woman, knowing she was doing it for him. Lauren disappeared through the curtain backstage. Batista held the title high, showing the world what he had accomplished that night. He stepped through the ropes with his new title on his broad shoulder, and walked up the ramp. Batista planned on seeing the one person who really made it all possible. His angel, his Vixen.
