(3rd Person POV)

The Road to Wrestlemania Part I

(XXXX)

"Give me the damn match, Steph!" Louisa Michaels shouted at her father's best friend's wife. Monday Night Raw had started and it had definetly started out with a bang. Lou was pleading her case for a match at Wrestlemania but against who? Randy Orton? Cody Rhodes? The WWE Champion, Triple H? Who was it? The audience had no idea.

"Lou, you may be Shawn's daughter, but I'm not willingly giving you THAT match." Steph said with just as much animosity as Lou had. Lou narrowed her eyes and the two then had a stare down.

Whispers swirled around as the crowd waited for the Heartbreaker to tell everyone who this match was against. But Lou broke away with a cheesy grin etched across her face.

"If you won't give me the match then I'll just have to take my case to the people." With that Lou stormed out of Steph's office and headed straight for the stage.

The red, white, and silver spotlights hit the stage as the words "You know I'm only going to break your heart" filled the speakers. The camera ran up the ramp and showed a very exuberant Louisa Michaels.

"They call me Heartbreaker for a reason, kids!" Lou shouted at the camera as she sprinted down to the ring and started dancing to her ring music. She was having a good time even though the last few weeks had been a living hell for her.

Shortly after Shawn and her had returned from San Francisco, Shawn had issued his challenge to the Deadman. The challenge had consumed Shawn from the inside out. Everything was Undertaker that or Undertaker this. Lou was worried about him and she didn't know what to do.

And then there was the issue of the WWE Championship match. A triple threat between John Cena, Triple H, and Randy Orton, John and Hunter were at each other's throats as Randy was clearly taking advantage of them. Lou hated it. Her family was clearly becoming torn apart.

But there was still a positive through all this and that glowing light at the end of the tunnel was the one the only, Alex Riley. He was Lou's rock through all of this. She had wasted her last few pay checks on going to FCW to just get away from the living hell that had become her life in the WWE. But in the back of her mind was how she had promised Shawn she wouldn't let a wrestler break her. None the less, she wanted to go back to FCW and not be here in the WWE with her family being destroyed from the inside out. That's why she needed this match. She needed to get this out of her system.

Lou picked up the mike ready to plead her case to the WWE Universe.

"What is up WWE Universe?" Lou screamed as the overwhelming response of cheers flooded her. "Ah, I take everyone is happy to see me then?"

Another crazy amount of cheering as Lou smiled at the crowd.

"Now I came out here for a reason. And that reason is I want a match at Wrestlemania seeing as the rest of my family has matches on the grandest stage of them all. Now some may say I'm too young to have a match but I'm twenty-one I don't think that's too young do you guys think that?"

A round of booing echoed through the arena as Lou laughed.

"See that's what I thought. Now you're all probably like who's she challenging? Who does she want to face? Who? Who? WHO?" Lou asked getting a little too into the whole situation. Taking a deep breath and recomposing herself to get back on track. "We'll I'll tell you guys who-"

Right as the words were about to leave her mouth did a certain wrestler's music cut her off.

"I hear voices in my head, they talk to me, they understand…"

Randy Orton and his Legacy goons plus Michael Cole appeared on top of the ramp and stalked down to the ring. Lou once again held her ground. She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms in front of her chest not in the least amused with the little group's entrance.

"Ugh, what do you four want?" Lou spit out angrily as she leaned against the ropes annoyed.

"Oh Louisa, you look beautiful." Cody said as Lou smiled a fake smile and turned her back to the group of second generation stars. Cody was right she did look pretty. Her hair was done in curls as it fell over her shoulders. She wore a purple top with embroidered shoulders that had a spectacular bead pattern. She had on jeans and some amazing high heel boots that if she used them to kick any member she would probably puncture his jugular.

"Bite me, Rhodes." Lou spit back as she jumped and sat on the turnbuckle waiting for the groups reasoning of them coming out here and interrupting her.

"Oh I would if I could," Cody responded as Ted smacked him upside the head.

"I repeat my earlier question, what do you four want?" Lou said a bit annoyed.

"While you were talking about how young you were and it reminded me of something very important." Randy said coyly as he approached her. She continued to sit upon the turnbuckle and pointed at her boot.

"I will kick you if I have too, Orton. I'm sure Dibiase and Rhodes wouldn't want to clean up their bosses internal organs off the ring. So back off, but what's this thing I reminded you of?" Lou bit back.

"Oh someone's a little feisty tonight aren't we?" Randy bit back.

"You're point Orton?" Lou responded while rolling her eyes.

"My point is that I was the youngest World Champion in WWE history, you want to be the youngest to wrestle at Wrestlemania." Randy reasoned as the crowd booed him exuberantly. Lou mad a hand motion for him to get on with it. "My point Michaels is that why are you associating yourself with dead beats like your father, Triple H, and Cena when you could be with us?"

Lou bit her tongue and narrowed her eyes. Immediately, Randy realized that he had hit a nerve just like he wanted to do especially with her.

"You're a real piece of work, you know that Orton? There are reasons I'm not with your little Legacy group and would you all like to know why?" Lou asked the audience as they screamed back at her with enthusiasm. "While reason number one, I don't deal with boys who rub baby oil all over themselves. That's just downright gross and disgusting. Ewww… Reason number two, there isn't enough testerone to go around for you three… so one of you has to be a girl." Lou reasoned while looking towards Cody as Randy and Ted exchanged a look and Cody started to yell.

"Oh ladies and gents, it sounds like somebody has some confessions to do a little later after the show. And drum roll for reason number three, I just really don't like any of you and that leads me to what I came out here to say. I want a match with you, Michael Cole!"

Randy, Ted, and Cody all burst out laughing at her request, but Cole looked like a deer in head lights.

"You've got to be kidding me? You're challenging an announcer?" Randy asked with a raised eyebrow and continued laughter. "And here I thought you were the daughter of Shawn Michaels, but you're asking a lowly announcer for a match?"

Lou's eyes again narrowed as she glowered at Randy and the rest of Legacy. She wished Shawn, John, Uncle Hunter, or even Beth was here with her so she could attack, but sadly she couldn't. If she did then it would just amount in a four on one mauling. Lou sighed and directed her gaze told Cole. This was between her and him. She wanted revenge for the attack that made her life hell so long ago.

"Cole, I believe that I owe you a kick or two because you were one the that mugged me that night during the John Cena's and Triple H's match igniting this whole little feud. I want you to suffer Michael Cole not just for your sucky commentator skills, but also because you're a little weasel who will take advantage of anyone whenever given the chance. You suck!" Lou said igniting a 'You Suck' chant throughout the entire arena.

Legacy stopped their laughing as Lou inched closer and closer toward Cole as he walked backwards into the ropes.

"Oh Michael Cole, are you afraid of little old me?" Lou said watching her prey squirm as she played up the cute little innocent announcer girl act. "I'm not as defenseless as I once was and I think it's time everyone sees that!"

In a flash, Lou had kicked Michael Cole knocking him unconscious. Before Legacy could grab her to get back for what she had done to their ally she jumped out of the ring and walked backwards up the ramp. She shrugged her shoulders and looked the three men tending to the down trodden announcer.

"What? I warned you I was a Heartbreaker, but you didn't listen." Lou yelled at the ring as she walked away.

"That girl," sighed Shawn as he watched her from the monitor backstage and shaking his head.

"I wonder where she gets it from?" questioned a female voice as Shawn turned around to find Stephanie standing beside him. "She certainly reminds me of someone, actually scratch that two people."

"Let me guess, me and Hunter?" Shawn asked with a roll of his eyes. Stephanie shook her head and smiled at the legendary wrestler that was her husband's best friend.

"You and Rebecca, back when you both started in the business. Lou has your attitude and sarcasm and she's got Rebecca's moves and speed." Steph reasoned as Shawn was about to speak she raised a hand to stop him, "Don't object because you know as well as I do that it is true. She also reminds me of when I was younger. If she ever needs a woman in her life just tell her to come to talk to me. I know she is friends with Beth which must not have been an easy task, but if she ever needs anything tell her to see me. Lord, knows what you, Hunter, and John must put that child through."

"Thanks Steph, I think that would be good for her." Shawn said meekly looking at his daughter still gloating over her trodden down victims. "I'm worried about her with all this Legacy business. I think once Wrestlemania is over Hunter and I reform DX. I know Car thinks she can do this on her own, but she's going to need all the help she can get."

"I agree with that. Just be careful with what you and Hunter do to help her. This is her battle not yours. Let her deal with her own feuds before you two get involved." Steph reasoned as she began to walk away. "And Shawn?"

"Yea, Steph?"

"I'm giving her the match."

"I never thought you wouldn't Steph." Shawn responded with a smile seeing his daughter round the curtain as Steph nodded and walked away. His little girl certainly was the Heartbreaker he always knew she would be.

"Are you sure about this, Louisa?"

"Alex, I'm absolutely positive. I wouldn't have issued the challenge otherwise." Lou answered as she lay on top of Alex in his apartment in Tampa. "Cole deserves a beat down. I mean, come on, the guy did practically mug me four months ago!"

"Lou," Alex tried to reason, "You need to let that go."

Lou had gone to Florida to see Alex win his championship back at the upcoming promotion at FCW. Alex had requested her to be there because he was going to win the title back from Wade Barrett (or at least he hoped he would), who had been a rampage since Lou had left FCW. Super kicks, they never do any good for some people, Lou thought to herself after Alex had told her this.

The brunette sighed as she lay across Alex's chest. There was another reason she had escaped from FCW and that had to do with the whole Shawn Michaels and Undertaker feud. Lou hated it. Why she had agreed to let her father travel down that path was beyond her?

Shawn had walked to the ring the other night in a pure white outfit. And now he was in the midst of planning the Undertaker's streaks funeral. He was being consumed from the inside out by this match and Lou despised seeing it.

She couldn't talk to Shawn about it because he would have just told her that this match was his way of getting revenge in a way, but that was totally irrelevant. She could go to John, but he was too busy trying to hold off Randy and Triple H. There was one person who felt the same way she did and that was Hunter Hearst Helmsley.

He had listened to Lou's worries because he too was worried about his best friend. He even tried to confront Shawn about it, but had ended in exactly the same way as Lou had thought it would. Shawn saying that this was his decision and he was going to go through with it and destroy the streak if it was the last thing he did.

"Louisa!" Lou looked up to the big chocolate brown eyes that were staring at her. Alex sat there looking down at her with a worried expression on his face.

"You okay?" Alex asked nervously.

"Just thinking, that's all." Lou reasoned taking a handful of popcorn.

"A penny for your thoughts?" Alex again asked trying to get her to open up. She sighed. If there was one person that knew her to well it was Alex Riley. The boy could just peg whatever emotion she was having.

"I'm worried about Shawn is all," she sighed and shook her head, "I can't wait until Wrestlemania is over and this whole Undertaker streak thing will rest in peace for another year."

Alex laughed at what she said.

"What?" Lou asked confused.

"Rest in peace, that's Taker's move and you said it in a sentence. It was funny." Alex continued to laugh as Lou rolled her eyes and smacked the FCW star. "Enough of this serious talk, what movie do you want to watch? Rocky I, II, or III?"

"All you have is Rocky?" Lou asked while raising an eyebrow.

"I believe it can inspire one to win a major match that they have coming up in their career." Alex reasoned.

"Please tell me you're not serious?" Lou said while shaking her head.

"Oh, but I am. And since you're being picky we're watching the first one. I believe that will inspire the two of us." Alex said popping in the DVD and wrapping an arm around Louisa as the film started.

"So when you're in your match against Barrett, Mr. Underdog, are you going to yell Adrian, Adrian!" Lou teased as a warm smile spread across Alex's face.

"No, I'm going to be yelling Louisa, Louisa."

Lou smiled at Alex. Maybe that dream about Alex was just a dream and would not even come into play. Maybe everything would turn out okay for everyone. Alex would win his match and become champion again. Lou would win hers and solidify her spot as a commentator and maybe even a wrestler. Shawn would go back to acting normal after his match with the Undertaker. And John and Hunter would stop wanting to kill each other.

It would all be over soon. And everything would be back to normal. Or at least that's what she hoped. And that's all she had right now.

Hope.

There you have it, another chapter in the books! ^.^ I hope you all liked it since were getting close to the end, but I already have a sequel in the works and the title along with the prologue will be posted in this story after I finish writing this baby.

By the way this is now an Alex Riley certified story… Okay, not really, but I did get a retweet from him and it was amazing because I started screaming and dancing around my dorm room. My roommate was really freaked out, but that's another story for another time. And speaking of Mr. Riley, I was doing some research and found that "Rocky" is one of his favorite movies so what I wrote up above works so well!

Anyways, you guys came out of the wood work last chapter so shout outs to my home slices: Brittney of Angels, WhiteAsukalover (I promise to get around to PMing you, I'm just really swamped with stuff right now), therealchamps, and huge props to LevesqueFan1 (Your reviews are amazing! Thank you!)

So this is Part I of this chapter because I feel like I couldn't cover everything I wanted to leading up to Lou's match at Wrestlmania. So Part II is on its way just be patient! ;)

So until next time, listen to Daylight by Matt and Kim (the most happy go lucky-cheer you up when your down song ever!), go to the Mall of America, and just continue to be awesome!

~always with much love ~L.

See you next time! Review?
