SmackDown! backstage area
Stacy walked through the halls looking for Torrie; she knew Torrie couldn't be in a good state as of right now; since she just signed the divorce papers over the weekend. She made her way past all the other superstars' room and stopped at Torrie's room before knocking on the door.
There was no reply. Stacy looked around the hall, where else could Torrie be?
Stacy turned around to leave and gasped loudly from fear when she saw Torrie standing right behind her. She could tell her eyes were slightly red and swollen from crying.
"Sorry." Torrie apologized softly.
"For what?"
"Scaring you." Torrie replied.
"No, it's not your fault… are you alright, with the… divorce?" Stacy asked with concern, right after asking the question, she wanted to slap herself for her stupidity, of course Torrie wasn't alright, anyone could tell just by her swollen eyes.
Torrie looked back at her in silence.
"Y-you don't have to answer if you don't want to…" Stacy stuttered.
"I'll be fine." Torrie managed to whisper.
"Awww, come here," Stacy brought Torrie into her arms and embraced her tightly.
They stayed in the hug for a short moment before Torrie felt someone push her from behind making her face crash into Stacy's. Immediately they looked to see Dawn Marie standing besides them with a smirk on her face.
"What the hell is your problem?" Stacy asked angrily while rubbing her chin in pain.
Dawn turned to Torrie completely ignoring Stacy and eyed her up and down, "How's your leg? Your marriage?"
"Shut your mouth." Stacy yelled and pushed her away.
Dawn went forward to slap Stacy but she moved away quickly, and instead, Dawn had swung her hand against Torrie's cheek.
Torrie held her face in shock. Stacy turned to her in distress, "Oh my gosh! Are you okay?!"
Dawn took the opportunity to push Stacy against the wall; she started punching at her midsection repeatedly.
Torrie stopped Dawn by prying her away from Stacy.
Nidia ran into the scene with a steel pipe in her hand and smacked it against Torrie's bandaged leg.
Torrie screamed in pain and fell with her back against the wall. Stacy got up to her feet and tackled Nidia to the ground viciously.
The general manager, Kurt Angle, with a few other workers, ran to where they were and pried Stacy away from Nidia.
"What is going on here?!" Kurt yelled.
"Torrie and Stacy attacked us out of nowhere." Dawn lied.
"Bullshit!" Stacy screamed still held by the worker. "Dawn attacked us first!"
"Liar!" Dawn shouted.
"You slapped Torrie, you bitch!" Stacy screamed at Dawn in frustration.
"Alright, the both of you just shut up!" Kurt yelled and held his hand up for them to keep quiet. "The four of you will end it all by having a tag team match next."
"What?! Torrie's leg is hurt." Stacy argued.
"So?" Dawn asked.
"Fine, then you all have the match next week." Kurt reasoned.
"Her leg can't recover that quickly, Nidia just attacked it again." Stacy said and turned back to glare at Nidia.
"You are all having the match next week." Kurt emphasized without a care in the world.
Dawn and Nidia both smirked at Stacy.
Kurt turned to Nidia and Dawn, "You two, go already." They nodded and left with satisfaction. Kurt looked at Torrie and Stacy with a sigh before leaving with the workers.
Stacy turned to Torrie whose cheek was a bright shade of red from the slap, "I'll go get ice for you."
