They stood in front of her, with their fist together waiting for her answer. As she looked at the three of them, tears threatening to come from her eyes, she didn't want to show weakness but it was slowly working. "Come on, Azrael, you know the truth, you know what we're saying is all true, do you want to stay a nobody forever", Dean asked. Her eyes darted between the three men, as Seth began to talk, she began to go back into her memories.
Flashback
"Mom, Dad, I'm leaving", She faced her parents, "Leaving...where are you going Wenonah", "I'm going to be a wrestler, I've been training and working really heard, they got me a spot in FCW", She said. Her mother Aiyanna, she laughed. "We wont allow it", "There's nothing for you to allow, I'm going it's already set up", "You're only sixteen Wenonah" "Sixteen, with my own job and money, I paid for it and they're giving me a shot, Dad, you know how much I love wrestling, I did everything right, I even graduated earlier in the year, I'll go to college and earn a degree, but wrestling is what I want to do", "And what are you going to do huh, what if you don't even make it like everybody else", "You're going to be a failure and a waste of space," "When we told you to go out and make something of yourself, we meant doing something useful, not leaving home for foolishness", Diane spat. Wenonah looked at her father for some type help. "Dad, really", "Diane maybe we should just let her go", "And make a fool of herself, what does wrestling do for you, all of it is fake, you want to be a faker for the rest of your life Wenonah, I...We didn't raise you that way," "Wrestling is like a circus, you're always making a fool of your self, entertaining people like your animals, hurting yourselves on purpose, you could get injured and can never return to wrestling again...what are you going to do then huh", She asked. "I'm going mom, I can't pass this up, I just can't", Wenonah replied. "Antonio tell our daughter no...", "Antonio...", "I can't do that, she's going to make mistakes, let her make them...", Her father replied. Her mother rolled her eyes and sighed. "If you go, don't come back...", Diane told her.
"So...You want Justice Or Nah", Dean asked. Some of the people in the crowd laugh, while others gave a mixture of booing and cheering. She stared at the three and walked towards the, turning around she dropped to the mat on her butt Indian style, and rose her fist up touching the center of the triangle that was made. A smirk set on the faces of three members as the theme played again. The fans couldn't believe it, couldn't believe what just happened. She couldn't believe that she actually took them up, but a small smirk graced her face, she wasn't going to be misused again, and failure, she was going forget that word and conquer.
"Are you seriously going to join up with them", Britani asked her as Wenonah packed her suitcase. She sniffed and turned around. "No offense Brit, but, you don't know what it feels like, and yes I am, what choice do I have...to stick it out", She asked putting the strap of her duffel bag around her shoulder. "You're making a huge mistake, they can't be trusted, you know what they're capable of", "Are you afraid of a little competition, you're a good friend to me Britani, but come on now, it's time for me to stop sitting in the shadows taking everything, everybody dishes out because the bosses says so, I'm not going to do that, I never will, ever again", She told her with some confidence.
"They brainwashed you good it's only been twenty minutes", "You don't know Britani, what I had to go through...what I went through everyday, you're living it up on the mainroster now, when you were here, you were NXT Women's Champion, How about I skip that and take that", She said touching the Divas Championship.
Britani took a couple of steps back. "Don't get cocky...", "It's not about being cocky Brit, it's about knowing that I can wipe the floor with everyone I lost to", She replied. "You'll figure that out soon enough", She added. "Wenonah, just stop for a second and rethink this...why would The Shield want you to join them," "Am I not good enough for the Shield now," "I'm not saying that Wennie and you know it, you're my best friend, but The Shield...Those three guys...will lie to you and then you'll be even more used", She replied.
Wenonah scoffed and looked at her. "Britani, I'm not about to be a failure for the rest of my life, I'm not going to be a waste of space, forever a jobber, you're doubting me as we speak, every since I started here, I've been a loser, I've done what's best for business, what was best for everybody else but myself, that stops here and now, Now I'm doing whats best for me, and what's best for the divas division, I'm taking what I deserve and that's greatness...I have to go, they're waiting for me", She said. "WENONAH", Britani called. She pushed the locker room door opened and hurried down the hall as Britani called and tried to follow after her.
What did she know, she knew nothing. "What's the frown for", Seth had asked her as she approached them, she fixed her face. 'Right, I really have to stop thinking hard'. "What", Dean said looking at her with his eye brow raised. 'Did I say that out loud", "Who are you talking to", 'Yes I did'. "Oh, nobody, sorry, I was zoned out, I'm...Wenonah", She introduced herself.
They nodded. "I'm Colby", "Jon", "Joe", "Colby, Jon and Joe, Nice to meet you three", She said. "Same here ,sweet heart", "Now it's time to get down to business, put your things in the back, you're going to be disappear for a while", Jon told her. The trunk door was open, she threw her duffel bag inside and Joe closed it. "Let's roll", "Can I get a clue as to where we're going", "A private training place," "We're starting tonight, I mean it's late", Wenonah stated. "We're not sleepy, and you're not either", "But I...", "Do you want to get stronger", Joe asked. "Yes I do", "Then it shouldn't be a problem, it's just the first night...besides it's not going to be late like this all the time", He assured her with a small smile.
They pulled up to a large garage, the door open, lights were on, one ring, and one person standing inside. As they got out and walked closer, she realized that it was one of the head NXT Trainers, Bill Demott. "So, you took them up on the offer, Glad you did, get in the ring", Bill told her. "I can't change...", "You'll change after I talk to you", He replied. She climbed into the ring and stood in front of him. "Let's sit down now", He added as he dropped to the mat, she followed after him. "Listen, you were pick from the start, why, because you had heart, you had passion and determination", Bill told her. "You were quick to learn and even when you're hurt, you continued to go on because this...is what you wanted to do," "When we first met, you were fifteen, in one year, you learned quickly, when we didn't let you in, what did you do, you stood outside each time we had a class, just to wait...until they left," "That showed me that you would do anything, even in the cold, so I let you into the classes and you did what you had to do, you wouldn't be ignored...", "So tell me one thing...what changed", Bill asked.
She really had to think, what did change, the fact that they didn't see her as mainstream material or the lies that were told. "When, I got called up, most of the divas never talked to me and if they did, the whole newbie thing would come about, lies were being told and they would ask me to loose week in and week out because, the divas were complaining about me all the time, I guess they didn't like the fact that I was getting better than them, which I was, I never let up on my training, you know that", She replied, anger was starting to get to her. He nodded. "Every time I would try and talk to them about pushing me, because I've done everything I could and every time I talked to them about winning, they'd cut me off with not now..",
"Bill, it's been not now for eight years, I'm twenty three years old now, and they made me an offer, that I couldn't turn down", "They...were my only way out", She explained. "I mean they ignored my every plea, like I didn't matter to the division anymore, they kicked me to the curb, to be forever a jobber, the friendships I had, are now over and I'm done being everybody's push over, it's time for me to take what I want and if this is the only way, then who's going to stop me", She stated. "Are you ready to work", Bill asked with a smile. "What do I have to work on..." "You're personality...you can be a great baby face, but these three for now are the good guys in this situation, you have to develop a face persona and heel persona, and judging the way you are, you'll be excellent for the job, you're going to be on the main roster now, so you have one thing that you have to do", He told her. "And what's that...", "Convince The Fans and yourself, you think you can do that", He asked. "Yeah", She replied. "Then lets get to work go change, the bathroom is right over there", He told her pointing towards the other side of the room.
She looked at herself in the mirror after she changed. "Things are going to be different now", "Nobody is going to hold me back, I'm not going to be a stepping stone anymore, and Nobody is going to prove...me...wrong", She told her self. She opened the door to the bathroom a determined look on her face, when she returned to the ring...She was going to be brand new.
