(3rd Person POV)

Finding Yourself

(XXXX)

Randy Orton stood in the middle of the wrestling ring staring into the sea of people with an angry smirk across his arrogant face. His protégés Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr. directly by his side waiting patiently for their boss to speak, the week before had been one that Legacy had deemed themselves proud of. Destroying Shawn Michaels, messing with Triple H's psyche, and toying with John Cena had proven to be a success from last week's attack on D-Generation X and the Champ John Cena.

But there was one thing that was alluding the master RKOer. And that was the prize he had found several months ago, his thoughts were plagued with her slapping him. He had come slow close to kissing her that night just to be slapped by a… girl… but not just any girl, the long lost daughter of Shawn Michaels.

To say Randy wanted this girl in Legacy was an understatement. He needed this girl in Legacy was more like it. If he could get her in, he would destroy his enemies from within no problem. But the night that he had RKOed Shawn's daughter had been the last he had saw of her. Louisa Donaldson had disappeared off the face of the earth after that night. Shawn had hidden his daughter from Randy very well. He hadn't seen her since then. And that's what had caused Randy to snap last week.

He wanted Louisa in Legacy's corner. He wanted to use her to get to his enemies but with Shawn having her in hiding there was nothing that he could to do to get her out except what he had done. Watching the replay from last week on the Titantron, Randy smiled at his work. Watching Shawn bleed profusely, Hunter's anger about not being able to do anything, and Cena being beaten to a pulp by his two protégés brought a smile to the Viper's face.

He knew if she had seen her father and his friends in a bloody pulp, she would come running faster than a roadrunner to help save them from her most hated enemy. Randy had laid the trap now all he had to do was wait for his prey to be caught.

The crowd booed Legacy with such viciousness that it was no wonder that the building was in a riot. Randy smiled the signature Orton smirk out at the crowd hoping no more than that Louisa would come running down the ramp just as he rose the microphone to his mouth. But Randy knew better that wasn't her style, her style was yet to be established, but if she was anything like her father Randy knew to not trust anything that he thought about a Michaels.

"Oh shut up," hissed Randy to the crowd, "Your just angry that your precious Champion and D-Generation X aren't here tonight to stand up to the Legacy. Cody, Ted, and I have become the most dominating forces in the WWE. No matter who you are, if you mess with us your screwed so word to the wise don't."

The crowd booed even more as the three villains in the ring smiled at each other.

"Randy's right mess with us, you will be in a world of pain." Ted reasoned. "Look what happened to Cena, just look at the beat down me and Cody laid on him. And the chumpain isn't even coming to tonight's show. Proves that he deserves nothing, Randy is the rightful champion."

Cody than grabbed a microphone to join in the beat down of their adversaries but before he could say anything the three men that Legacy had destroyed the previous week appeared on the screen.

The crowd erupted in cheers seeing their heroes. The three were standing by a garage door and looked like they were waiting for someone important to appear. It was right then that Randy realized she was going to make her return tonight.

"Oh guys look, the baby oil boys club has decided to join us." Cena said while the crowd jeered at Legacy. "While since you jerk faces did a number on us last week we have brought in the cavalry."

"And this person, you are quite familiar with Orton. You too DiBiase," Hunter said with a quick smirk. "And this time I'm pretty sure this person is going to kick your ass!"

Orton shook his head at the trio out in the parking lot.

"You three are just going to protect her like before aren't you?" he said with a cocky tone in his voice. But just as Randy finished uttering those words did the arena go pitch black.

A single spotlight shone upon the stage. The audience went silent as Ludacrisis and Taio Cruz filled the speakers. But when the lyrics "They call me heartbreaker" hit everyone knew what was going to happen next.

The long absent Louisa appeared on the stage. Lou raised her hands making the DX symbol held high over her head. She walked down the ramp toward Legacy ready for them to try anything to attack her. As Lou posed on the turnbuckles, Randy watched her. She was more beautiful than he remembered her but his plan had worked. She was right where he wanted her.

Lou stood in front of Legacy, toe to toe to the three men, not afraid.

Her long brunette hair fell over her shoulders. Her body fully toned from all the training she had done at FCW. Lou stood in a red tank top with a black cardigan covering her shoulders and upper body. Some ripped refuge denim jeans covered her legs. On her feet she wore a pair of Chuck Taylor's sneakers. No make-up adorned the girl's face, as Alex would always tell her she looked naturally beautiful without the stuff. So when the Divas tried to sweep her into the Make-up chair she delightfully declined.

Lou lifted the microphone that she had grabbed while entering the ring to her mouth but before she could say anything, the crowd erupted with excitement. Their favorite wrestling announcer was back. And this time they all knew who she was. She was Carson Louisa Rebecca Michaels, daughter of the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels, almost a niece to Triple H, and John Cena's right hand Chain Gang girl.

Ok, so maybe while Lou was gone D-Generation X had decided it was time for the world to know why Legacy had gone after the amazing young woman that had done nothing to Legacy at the time while other Super Kick Ted but that was very little. But with what had happened four months ago was not going unnoticed in the WWE Universe. It was decided that the long lost daughter of the Heart Break Kid was to be revealed.

So the WWE Universe was going insane for the long lost daughter of the Heart Break Kid.

"Hello WWE Universe," screamed Lou once the crowd calmed down. "For those of you who have forgotten who I am or do not know, I am Carson Louisa Rebecca Michaels… or Lou for short."

"Oh look who decided to join the party boys," Randy said with a smirk, "You look beautiful as always Louisa. So what decided to make you come out of hiding?"

"Whoever said I was in hiding Orton?" questioned Lou angrily.

"Then enlighten us Louisa, where have you been the last several months? We all know you're a Michael's so dear old Daddy send you away? Or were you just too afraid to stick around?" Randy said inching closer and closer toward her. But instead of Lou running away like Orton expected, she stood her ground and went noise to noise with Randy. The two were touching and it was insane. You could feel the anger and fury coming off of the two.

"How about instead of talking about it, I'll just show you." And with that Lou pushed Orton and his goons into each other. Cody and Ted being the idiots that they are, fell to the ground pulling Randy with them. It was then that Lou climbed the turnbuckle, raising her hand to the sky in honor of Rebecca, and then she hit the first ever 450 splash that the WWE Universe had seen her perform, but it would most certainly not be the last night.

And Lou dusted herself off and dove out of the ring. She backed away up the ramp, a giant smile across her face, greatly satisfied with what she had just done to The Legacy.

But Lou knew this was just a battle in the war against Legacy. But she had won it by herself.

"Louisa, Louisa! Can I get a quick word about what happened out there?" shouted Josh Matthews as he chased after the new diva. She turned in Josh's direction and nodded her head stopping her strut to the combined Cena and DX locker rooms. Lou smiled as Josh as they waited to come back from commercial.

"Nice job out there by the way," Josh whispered to her as the cameraman gave him the signal they were back from the commercial break.

"I'm here with the just recently returned Carson Louisa Rebecca Michaels and as we all say, Legacy just saw something that they did not expect, Louisa do you care to comment on what happened out there?"

"Absolutely Josh, and it's just Lou." Lou responded while smiling at the interviewer and then turning and taking a more serious tone. Her eyes narrowed and smile faded. Practically snarling Lou spit out her thoughts, "What Legacy saw out there was four months of pent up rage for doing what they did all those months ago to me. It's my turn to show them what I'm made of and I'm not afraid of any of those baboons. To quote some of my favorite superstars, I came to the play the game but you won't be able to see me because I'll still be kicking your teeth down your throat. Word Life. Oh, and everything is going to be alright thanks to A-Ry."

And with that Lou walked off.

"While folks, you heard it here first. Lou Michaels is hunting Legacy and she isn't afraid anymore. And who is A-Ry?" Josh Matthews said with a smile shaking his head after the girl that had just left the set.

That was the question everyone in the WWE Universe was asking now. But Alex was sitting there watching his television smiling directly at the diva that he had trained. She was turning out to be everything that he had imagined. But one thing was missing from that equation. And that was him.

"That's my girl!" screamed John as he grabbed Lou and raised her into the air smiling at the little brunette. "That was so awesome! You 450ed Legacy! Who taught you how to do that?"

"Oh, just a friend of mine," Lou reasoned with the WWE Champion sneakily smiling as he set her down.

"Well kiddo, you certainly do know how to honor the Michaels name don't you?" said Shawn while messing up his daughter's hair. Lou shook her head and smiled at her father.

"She's like a mini version of you, Shawn, what do you expect?" Hunter questioned of his niece.

"While with that promo she just cut she sounded like all three of us." John said while laughing at Lou. "Word Life, really you had to use that?"

"Well as you introduced yourself to me when we first met you were the Doctor of Thuganomics weren't you?" Lou said causing John to smack his hand to his head. "So technically, it was your own fault I said it."

"Come here you!" John yelled but as Lou ran out of the champion's grasp the door to the locker room swung open.

"MICHAELS!" yelled the Raw GM, Mike Adamle, he was furious about what had transpired earlier in the evening. His number one contender had just gotten demolished by a girl.

"Yea," Lou and Shawn both responded at the same time causing the two to smile at each other.

"Not you Shawn, you Louisa." Adamle snarled. "What makes you think you can go around hurting my number one contender?"

"Let's see, maybe when he attacked me four months ago." Lou roared as she got closer to the jerk general manager. "He deserved it anyway."

Lou turned her back and walked away. Adamle snarled again watching the daughter of a legend walk away from him. He was the general manager damn it, and he was going to teach this girl who was boss.

"Michaels, you got yourself a match tonight! You hear me!" Adamle yelled as Lou grabbed her gear and headed to change.

"I hear you loud and clear, boss." Lou said sarcastically, "And who's my opponent?"

Adamle smiled at her.

"Lou, your first match will be against… the Glamazon Beth Phoenix. You all have a good rest of the evening. Oh and Miss Michaels, good luck."

"Adamle, I don't need to luck. I can handle this without luck. So bring it on!"

Lou paced back and forth in the gorilla. The click of her wrestling boots could be heard throughout the back. Was she scared? No. Was she nervous? Hell yea. She was going up against the Woman's Champion, Beth freaking Phoenix. The woman was undefeated in the Divas division. Lou was in a game of David and Goliath, Lou being David in this situation. Lou continued her pacing and freaking out.

Shawn watched his daughter pace back and forth. He sighed shaking his head remembering his first match and now he had the pleasure of watching his daughter face her first opponent. But he knew the nerves that were going through her at that very moment. He went through it every time before all his matches. But this time it wasn't him stepping out there, it was his daughter.

"Lou," said Shawn placing his hand on her shoulder causing the girl to look up into her father's eyes. "I know your probably freaking out right now, but take a deep breath."

Lou inhaled and then exhaled before turning and looking back at her father.

"Listen to my voice," Shawn said as Lou closed her eyes, "Don't let this freak you out because you can beat it and I know it. Alex trained you better than this and we both know it. When you go out there know that you got everyone in your corner. Me, Uncle Hunter, John, the WWE Universe, and I'm sure Alex too." Shawn whispered lowly so she couldn't hear him but he sighed and shook his head before continuing. "Go to a place where you know you're happy."

Lou found herself in a dark meadow staring up at the stars. She was laying between and Shawn and Rebecca as if nothing had ever happened. Lou smiled as the hot summer wind swept her hair.

"When you're in that place, you're at you're center. Find your center, find yourself."

Lou felt at peace with herself for the first time in months. None of her adversaries could hurt her. Here, she was invincible and no one could defeat her.

"Lou, Lou, Lou," Shawn whispered. "It's time to come back sweetie."

Lou's eyes snapped open and she was back to the gorilla, which meant she was back in reality which also meant that it was time for her to face the Woman's Champion.

Lou sighed and shook her head.

"Hey, look at me," Shawn said raising his daughters head, "Who are you?"

"Shawn," Lou sighed.

"No, I'm Shawn. Who are you?" Shawn practically shouted.

"I'm Louisa Michaels." Lou said quietly.

"Where's the enthusiasm? I'll ask again who are you?" shouted Shawn.

"I'm Louisa Michaels!" Lou shouted.

"SO WHO ARE YOU?" Shawn shouted.

"I'M LOUISA MICHAELS! AND I'M GOING TO KICK BETH PHONEIX'S ASS!" Lou shouted just as the Glamazon walked by raising her eyebrow at the brunette. "Uh, sorry Beth."

"Don't worry about it, kid. Good luck out there." And with that Beth left as her music hit the arena.

Ludacrisis voice filled the arena and Shawn nodded at Lou. It was time for her to prove to the world that she was really his daughter and that she was going to break a lot of hearts.

"Go get 'em, Car." Shawn whispered her as she stood on her tip toes and kissed his cheek.

"Thanks Daddy, for everything."

And with that Shawn watched his little girl run off into the WWE Universe.

"They grow up fast, don't they?" Hunter sighed shaking his head his best friend. Shawn smiled before responding to his tag team partner. Hunter and him then started to walk toward the monitor to watch Lou's first match.

"They sure do Hunter, they sure do."
