This chapter will be in the P.O.V. of Jenny.


My arms hurt. My legs hurt. My head hurts. The last thing I remember is warning Zack and Phil about something. I so hope that was a dream - a really bad dream.

"Nice to see that you have finally awaken, Jennifer." That was Matt's voice. Why is he with me? I looked up to see the most terrifying sight.

Zack and Phil were tied to the pillars of, what seemed to be, an abandoned warehouse. They both hand their hands tied above their head, their feet were shackled together. It took me a while to realise that I was in the same position as them.

"Zack? Phil?" I called out, but my voice was barely audible.

"There's no point calling for them." AJ was stood with Matt. Wait, AJ? Why is AJ here? Were they getting serious?

"Zack!" I called out again, this time louder. "Phil!"

"I don't think they'll wake up any time soon." Matt stepped towards me.

"What do you want? What are you doing?" My voice came out in a whimper.

"I wanted you back, but I couldn't have you." His thumb brushed my cheek. "You made my life living hell by getting me fired. This is me getting revenge."

"All this is because I wouldn't take you back?" My head tried to jerk back at his touch but it was no use.

"One of the many reasons. It could be worse than this you know?" His lips curved into a menacing smile.

"What have Zack and Phil done to you? It's me you don't like. Please let them go." I pleaded. "Why is AJ here?"

"Because you're the golden child." AJ shook her head. "Sister of the hall of famer, friends with the best in the company and you don't even try."

"I don't even try?" I tried to laugh. "That's all I ever do. The only reason these people like me is because I was on tour with them. I went in ring and did the type of matches, as a teenager, that none of the divas with ever dare to do. I earned it."

"Have you heck." AJ really did lose her temper quickly. "You don't deserve anything." Her fist hit my exposed ribs causing me to cry out in pain.

"Why did you get me fired?" Matt stopped her before she could go any further. "This is the only thing I wanted to ask you." His voice was calmer now. "I don't want to hurt you, as hard as that may seem." He shrugged his shoulders. "But I knew you wouldn't speak to me in normal conditions, only if the people you loved lives were at stake."

"Please don't hurt them." I pleaded once again. My bottom lip starts to shake and I can feel the tears building up. "We'll talk."

"We're going to have some fun first." AJ's hand hit me once again.

"No." Matt realised the situation he had me in. "AJ, leave."

"What?" She shouted. "No. We had a deal!"

"You can take your anger out on someone else." He spun AJ around so she was facing the door. She didn't bother arguing again, all she did was stomp off. "There." He turned back to me.

"Will you take these off me?" I shook my feet and arms.

He hesitated for a minute. "Yeah." First he took off the shackles on my feet then the ones on my wrists.

"You dick." I didn't even hesitate for a moment before jumping on him.

Although my body was aching the anger I felt out powered it. His body fell on the floor with me on top of him. My fists met his face with fury. But my body could only hold this up for a moment before losing all the adrenaline. Matt stood up dragging me across to the floor by my hair. His foot kicked any part of me that it could find contact with. I spun around in pain hoping this torture would stop.

"You whore." He screamed causing Phil and Zack to stir. "I'm going to kill you." He hit me a few more times before running out of the building.

I took this opportunity to take the shackles off Phil and Zack. I shook their shoulders and pleaded them to wake up. The most I could get was a whimper.

"Who said you could take them down?" Matt was back and he was carrying a baseball bat.

"Leave them be." I dragged myself onto my feet. "Put the baseball bat down and fight like a man."

Just as I reached to get it he hit my bare ribs. My t-shirt had ripped and there was nothing there to soften the blow. Within milliseconds of my ribs getting hit, he did it again. This jolt sent me off my feet and onto the floor. My head hit the hard concrete before going into pitch blackness.


"How bad is she?" I hear Zack's voice. Was he okay? Who was he talking to? Why couldn't I bring myself to open my eyes? I tried to hold onto the light, but it wasn't working.


"I want to kill this guy." That was Phil. Was he okay too?

"He deserves whatever he gets." His voice was sterner than normal.


"She shall be awake any minute soon." I heard an unfamiliar voice. "I'll leave you with her." The person's footsteps trailed behind him.

"Jenny." That was Zack. He held my hand lightly.

"She's waking up. Go light on her." Phil said as my eyes fluttered.

"Zack." I whined. "It hurts."

"I know baby." His thumb brushed my cheek and his lips greeted my forehead. "I'll do my best to make it better."

"How are you feeling?" Phil crouched at my other side.

"Phil." I tried to reach my free hand to touch him.

"I'm here." His hand clasped on mine. "I'm not going anywhere."

"Are you two okay?" I asked.

"Yeah." Phil nodded.

"How are you feeling?" Zack said softly.

"I want to go home." I tried held back bottled up tears.

"You have to go home." Phil gave a sad smile.

"Don't worry." Zack tried to stay as close to me as possible. "Just close your eyes."


The next time I woke up I was back in North Carolina in my own bed at Adam's home. Please let that be a nightmare, I pleaded to my mind, that I set off for Wrestlemania now. Unfortunately it wasn't. Although my ribs were still hurting they were nowhere as bad as before. I looked out the window and it was dark, the only thing that could be seen was the glow of the moon. The floorboards creaked underneath the weight of my body. I went into Adam's room where he was sound asleep. Trying not to wake him up I slowly curled up beside him.

"You're safe now." He whispered in my ear before wrapping is arms around me. It was nice to be home, to be safe, to not worry.
