Chapter 5- Champions!
The feud built up for weeks. Lee had feuded with the likes of Cody Rhodes who was attempting to put the moves on her. Yet time and time again she turned him down until he grew a little too aggressive towards her. It was one night on Raw when he hit her firmly in the backside. Lee in return slapped the taste out of his mouth. "I thought a legend such as your father would have raised a better son than that!" she announced.
Hardcore Holly soon intervened. "What the hell is going on here?"
"Tell your partner to learn to take NO for an answer!" Lee announced in a pissed tone. "Next time he touches me there will be hell to pay!"
Hardcore Holly looked between Lee and Cody. "Really? Hell to pay? I would like to see what a girl like you could do to tag team champions. Besides, shouldn't you be with the girls and getting beauty tips so you don't have to wear a mask anymore?"
The crowd was into this big time, they "Oooo'ed" to Holly's comment. Lee grinned and announced to the men. "If you got the balls to put the titles on the line, I'll show you what damage I can do to you in the ring… and your egos!" Lee stormed off as the two stared at one another and laughed aloud to her threat.
"She's going to get her dollies probably" smirked Cody.
The official match was made for the next Pay Per View. Judgment Day, the champions were introduced first and then Lee with her "mystery partner" Kane had already worked a match earlier in the night, but the tag match was going to be a squash one.
It stared when the arena went dark, all of a sudden black fire burst from the ramp as slow chemical blared through the arena. Lee came out along with Kane at her side. Yet the arena went dark very suddenly once more. No one noticed Lee move about the darkness, when the lights came on, she hit the 'rise of the dragon' on Holly, leaving Cody confused and alone to deal with Kane's wrath. A quick choke slam ended the match, leaving Lee stunned to say the least as a title belt was placed in her hands.
Kane stared at his for a moment as a small smirk came over his face; he placed it over his shoulder before walking out of the ring. Lee was quick to follow him to the back.
She drifted on cloud nine for weeks then months on end as a tag champion, the first woman to ever do so! She began going to the bars with the guys, as of late, Kane hadn't been in his best of moods, he was more depressed than anything.
One night she sat next to him and asked what was wrong. "I don't think one should suffer in silences" she said.
Kane turned to her and let out a sigh. "My wife wants a divorce" he said. Lee spat out her drink in shock.
"Are you serious? Why the hell would she want that?"
"I'm not around as often as she likes, I am a champion and she doesn't understand the responsibility I have! I asked McMahon to get the belt off me. I don't mind being tag champions with you, but the heavyweight title… it's starting to get heavy."
Lee couldn't bring herself to words. "She's nuts if she is willing to give you up"
"Really? I mean I am not that good looking…"
"Looks, people are so high on looks; I think it should be a crime to judge someone like that without knowing the real person within. Let's say you and I join Jericho over there in his little game of truth or dare?" she asked.
Lee didn't realize it but she was getting hammered! Kane was quite intoxicated as well, but they figured they could play some games with the boys. They lasted one round of truth or dare before Jericho cut them off.
"Ok I'll take you two back to the hotel" he announced. He chose to stay sober so he could enjoy everyone's drunken truths or dares! He drove them back to the hotel and got some guys to help him get Kane to his room.
"Oh just bring him into mine!" Lee slurred. "No one else is there!"
Figuring there was no harm in it; they brought the two to Lee's room and placed them in separate beds. Lying awake, neither slept as they stared at the roof. "You think I'll find the right person?" Lee asked out of the blue.
"Why do you ask that?" Kane questioned.
"Hell I have had such bad luck with guys! Most of them are jerks! Not one has liked me for who I was!"
"I like you. What's not to like about you? I like you" Kane replied in a slurred tone. "You got nothing to worry about, me… I got to find another woman… You think I can? I am not getting any younger"
Lee slipped beside Kane on the other bed. Her arms went around his shoulders and said "If the Deadman could marry someone my age at his age… why can't you?" before breaking into fits of giggles and laughter. It was soon contagious as Kane too began to lose it laughing aloud. The two found themselves staring one another in the eyes… before reaching over for a kiss….
