Hi! Nice to see ya again! So where were we? Oh yeah, Jason went one-on-one with Shawn, lost, and almost lost the friendship as well. Then, to cap it all off, he went out and accidentally cost John the WWE title. What's going to happen? Let's find out!
Here We Go!
Brotherly Hate-Chapter TwentyThe two Cena's arrived at the arena for Smackdown in silence, in truth there had been very little talk between the two since Summerslam. John had refused to speak to Jason after the match until the teen had cornered him at home and ordered his brother to hit him.
"Let's finish this now and get back to business!" He had said, John had refused to hit his brother but told him that the two would talk when he had cooled down, which still hadn't happened by the time the two went to the final Smackdown to take place on Thursday night. Once they arrived John walked off without a word, Jason went into the main locker room where the other guys were and sat down in a corner, Shawn came over to talk.
"Well, well, well, decided to come mix with the mortals did ya?" Jason gave him a look and didn't reply, Shawn instantly took it to mean something was wrong.
"Kid, you alright? Ya seem a little down".
"It's John, he's still pissed about the title match at Summerslam, can't blame him really, I'm surprised he didn't beat the shit outta me".
"C'mon you really think your own brother would do that to you? I can't fault him for being angry, but he'll come round eventually, just give him time".
Jason didn't reply, before Shawn could continue John came into the locker room and headed straight for Jason.
"Bro' a word please" he said going into the shower area, Jason followed in confusion, when they were out of earshot of everyone else John spoke again.
"Kid listen, I just spoke to Teddy and he's granted me a rematch with JBL for the title… "
"Cool, things'll be back to normal sooner than I thought".
"Yeah sure they will, but listen. The match is gonna be a Chicago street fight so the cabinet are gonna get involved right?"
"Yeah… so?"
"So, and don't take this the wrong way, but I want you to promise me you won't get involved in the match".
"Wait, the cabinet are gonna get involved so you DON'T want me out there?"
"Yes".
"If this is about Summerslam…"
"Kid, I know what happened was an accident but I can't afford another one tonight, if I lose then who knows when a might get another shot".
"Well, if it's what you want…"
"It is, and when it's over we'll go out and party the night away!"
"Alright, does JBL know?"
"No, I was gonna surprise him during his celebration".
"Cool, well, good luck".
"Where are you going?"
"Since you don't need me tonight I'll go hang out with some of the guys".
"Jason, c'mon kid don't take it personal".
Jason ignored him and walked straight out of the locker room, John considered following him but instead pulled out his phone, which had been n throughout the whole conversation.
"This better work man, I hate treating the kid like this!"
"Look" said the voice on the other end. "You're just doing what you gotta do to get your title back!"
"But at what cost? My relationship with my brother? It probably seems to him that I'm choosing the title over him!"
"You mean you're not?"
"What did you say? You lousy piece of…"
"Listen! What id I tell you earlier? Family only holds you back, you keep playing happy family's and you will NEVER see that belt again!"
"I'll take my chances" John hung up the phone and sighed, there was no point in telling Jason he could get involved now, JBL's music hit signalling the celebration was about to begin. He sighed and walked off making a silent promise.
"Kid, I'll make this up to you when I get the title back, I swear it!"
JBL stood in the ring surrounded by confetti, balloons, a table of Champaign and his cabinet with the old-style WWE title belt on his shoulder (he had returned the spinner belt to the office earlier that night) he took in the boo's that were raining down on him before speaking.
"Thank you, thank you. Ladies and gentlemen… the champ is here! I stand here before you as a two-time WWE champion, I beat John Cena to regain the title that he STOLE from me at Wrestlemania twenty-one! Before I go on, I'd like to thank a few people. Firstly, my cabinet, without whose support I would not be where I am today. Secondly, you people, cause love me or hate me you still chant my name". Boo's rained down on him again, he continued without acknowledging them. "Thirdly, and most importantly, I'd like to thank Jason Cena! Without your help kid, even I admit it, I wouldn't have beaten your brother. In fact, to thank you properly I have a video that I'd like to show everyone, roll the footage!"
A video package showing Jason superkick John from different angles played while JBL's music played. When it finished, JBL went to speak but John's music hit, JBL panicked and sent Doug, Danny and Orlando to block the aisle, however John came charging through the crowd and jumped him from behind, he pounded on JBL and threw him to the outside on top of the cabinet. He then grabbed a mic and addressed the fallen champion.
"Wow JBL your party sure died didn't it?" He walked over to the champaign. "Better put this stuff back on ice cause you ain't gonna have that belt long enough! Tonight I get my rematch! In a Chicago street fight!"
John dropped the mic and left through the crowd again while JBL threw a fit with his cabinet.
Throughout the show Jason had wandered aimlessly throughout the arena, his cell phone kept going off, it was probably Mara, but he didn't feel like answering. "Why me? Why is it always me who messes up? I don't blame John for being mad but… Why is he putting the title first rather than clear up this mess we're in? His thoughts were interrupted as he bumped into a pissed off JBL, the cabinet leader had been on a wrecking spree since Teddy Long had told him that the match would stand.
"Watch where you're going! Oh… it's you, actually I gotta talk to you. Yeah I do" he added as Jason looked confused. "Actually it's more of a question. How does it feel knowing that the reason I'm walking round with this belt is cause you couldn't stop yourself from interfering in your brothers life? Better yet, how does feel knowing that he hates you because of it?"
"Why you.." Jason dived at JBL only for the cabinet to cut him off and hold him back, JBL continued.
"It's all your fault I've got this title, and Johnny boy ain't never gonna give the chance to make it up to him!"
Jason was shaking his head trying to block out what JBL was saying, but he couldn't help but feel JBL had a point, JBL tried to carry on but Shawn Michaels interrupted.
"Hey! Leave the kid alone!"
JBL smirked and he and the cabinet left, Jason slumped to the floor head in his hands, Shawn came over and sat next to him.
"Don't listen kid, he's just trying to mess with your head".
"No…" came Jason's weak reply. "No he's right, he's right".
"No kid, he's wrong. Listen John's gonna win the title tonight and everything will be back to normal".
"Maybe… maybe" Jason got up and walked away head slumped towards the ground.
The Chicago street fight was in full swing and John had the advantage, he had dominated from the moment the bell rang despite the fact that JBL had brought his cabinet to ringside. The older Cena was taking all his frustration from the past week out on the champion and it only seemed a matter of time until he won it back. Doug, Danny and Orlando were hanging around the ringside area watching the match, even though JBL was getting destroyed they hadn't yet got involved in the match, they seemed to be waiting for something. That something turned out to be when John tried the F-U and all three men jumped in the ring and beat him down before leaving him to JBL, the cabinet leader then proceeded to punish John with every weapon he could get his hands on and soon the ring was stained with the challenger's blood.
Suddenly the crowds, and JBL's, attention was drawn to the aisleway where Jason was stood, he was just standing there watching the match, obviously torn up about whether or not to break his promise to John and get involved in the match. JBL laughed as he realised that Jason wasn't going to come down and help, he called the cabinet into the ring and grabbed a mic as the other three put the boots to John.
"C'mon kid, aren't you gonna come help your brother? Not sure? Guy's, help him make up his mind!"
Doug and Danny held John up while Orlando began to open up with punches, Jason stood firm but was clearly fighting to keep himself from coming down.
"Not gonna help? Very well kid, this is on your conscience!"
JBL spun round and began to lay in punches and kicks to John while the older Cena screamed in pain, Jason looked away, then came charging down to the ring! Doug and Danny met him outside but he beat both of them down, JBL told Orlando to get a chair so that he could end it quickly, Orlando went out of the ring and JBL went to pick John up, only for the older Cena to hit a low blow and a DDT! Orlando grabbed a chair and went to get in the ring but Jason came round and grabbed it. The two each began pulling at the chair but Orlando noticed John leaning on the ropes as he tried to get up, he smirked, then let go of the chair causing Jason to fall backwards nailing John in the head as he did! John rebounded back up, right into the Clothesline-From-Hell! JBL pinned as Orlando held Jason back, three seconds later JBL had retained his title!
Jason put his head in his hands as he realised that he'd done it again, he'd cost his brother the title again! Orlando was standing next to him laughing and the next thing he knew he had nailed him in the face knocking him down with one punch. He grabbed the chair off the floor and jumped in the ring; he came up behind the celebrating JBL and nailed him right in the back with the chair! JBL crumpled to the floor and Jason went to hit him again but Doug came into the ring, one chair-shot later he was down, Danny came in and got the same treatment, as did Orlando. JBL had rolled out of the ring and was heading for high ground with the belt, Jason went to follow, but was stopped by the referee, Jason pushed him away and nailed him with the chair as well! He stood over the fallen referee and turned round to find John right up in his face; he instinctively took a step back and stared at his brother. John was extremely pissed as he stared from Jason to the chair that the teen held, Jason dropped the chair and backed away, John looked like he was going to say something then shook his head and went to walk away. Jason followed and put his hand on John's shoulder, then found himself down on the mat holding his face where John had nailed him! He looked up at his brother, now standing over him, he went to speak but John cut him off.
"All I ask you to do is one simple thing, but you just can't help fucking things up for me can you?"
"John… I…"
"Save it for someone who gives a crap! You can make your own way home; because I don't want to see you anywhere near me right now!"
With that John left, Jason lay down in the ring for a moment before following, when he got to the locker room John wasn't there, neither was his bag, he headed to the parking lot meeting Mara on the way.
"Jason, where have you been all night? I've been looking…"
"Mara, where's John?"
"I saw him heading for the parking lot, he seemed real mad, Jason, what's happened?"
Jason didn't answer, he ran to the parking lot just in time to see Johns car gunning it for the exit, once again he put his head in his hands and slumped to the ground.
John gunned the car out of the arena, almost running down Shawn Michaels as he did so, he didn't slow the car down until he was on the freeway back to Boston. His cell phone went off, he looked at caller ID, if it was Jason he was gonna ignore it; it wasn't so he answered to hear the same guy he talked to earlier taunting him in a sing-song voice.
"I told you so!"
Well… not the best chapter I've ever written, but oh well. Wow! He's gone and done it now hasn't he? Poor Jason, also, who is it who keeps calling John? I'm just gonna leave it here so see ya 'til next time!
R&R (Tell me how bad it is!)
HOO-RAH!
