Sorry this update has taken a while


Chapter 6

Later that day, Stephen walked into the arena, prepared for the Smackdown taping, even though his match had been a last minute add in. He dropped his duffel bag on the bench in his locker room and pulled out his ring attire. What was this match going to be anyway, no one had informed him?

~|x|~

It's a shameful thing, lost your head, a careless man. . .

Stephen and Cassidy walked down the ramp together, her arm laced through his, their belts tossed over their shoulders. Stephen noticed that Cassidy was as clueless as he was about what this match would be.

He didn't like being not being informed. He went through the ropes as Cassidy sat on them, than he stepped on them so she could go through. He held up his belt than wrapped his arm around Cassidy.

It's time to play the game. . .

Stephen watched as Paul, carrying a microphone, walked out and stood on the top of the ramp. Stephen looked out of the corner of his eye and noticed that Cassidy looked as shocked as he felt.

She really hadn't known that this was going to happen. . .

So what was Paul planning?

"Sheamus, no one, absolutely no one will take advantage of my daughter. I told you if you chose to stick around you would be sorry." Triple H walked down to the ring, dropping the microphone as he went.

The following is a no-disqualification, falls count anywhere match.

Sheamus helped Cassidy out of the ring and handed his belt over to the referee. He stood, staring at Paul; when the bell rang he didn't have much of a chance to react because Hunter was already tackling him and punching him.

Stephen had never seen Paul so angry, he shoved him off and kicked him out of the ring, staring at him shocked. Had his best friend completely lost his mind?

Hunter seized him by the boot and yanked him out of the ring and punched him in the jaw again, sending sharp pains through his already sore jaw. He could hear Cassidy yelling at her dad but he wasn't sure what she was saying. Sheamus kicked Paul in the stomach and then kneed him in the face. He went for the pin but Hunter kicked out. Sheamus sighed and ran his fingers through his red hair.

He couldn't believe this was happening; he never wanted to fight with his best friend. . .

But he wasn't about to give up Cassidy anyway.

He grabbed Hunter and pulled him up before shoving him into the steel post. When he went to clothesline Hunter, Hunter moved and Sheamus hit, and fell over the steel steps. He got up and Hunter clotheslined him into the barricades.

He held his side, and moved out of the way when Hunter tried to clothesline him again. He punched Hunter and Hunter punched him back. They battled their way up the ramp and out to the back. Stephen could still hear the fans screaming as he fought with Hunter.

He shoved Hunter into a table, which broke as Hunter fell over it. He pulled him off and went for the pin again but Hunter, again, kicked out.

He pulled Hunter up and was about to do a back breaker when Hunter shoved him back into the wall. He moved out of the way when Hunter went to punch him. He did the brogue kick, sending Hunter toppling over a stage cart.

Sheamus pinned Hunter for the three count and the win.

He looked down at Hunter; then, walked over to Cassidy who was running toward him. He caught her when she jumped into his arms and hugged her.

Then he sat her down and they both went to check on Paul.


Hope you liked it Whitney, and anyone/everyone else who is reading it :) ~Danie
