Chapter Thirty Three - Stage Fright
Downtown Los Angeles, CA at 6pm:
"Johnny what do you think of this dress, does it say "I'm pregnant and I'm trying to hide it," or does it say "I'm the sexy mamacita you wish you had,"?" Melina asked her husband who was suddenly less vocal in giving his opinion of how she should dress during the final three months of her pregnancy, "Johnny?" Melina called looking around and she saw him staring outside the window of the boutique, "What are you staring at?" she asked putting the red dress back on the hanger and coming over to him.
"Everybody duck and cover there's an earthquake!" the store manager said and she pulled The Hennigans away from the window.
"Excuse me sweetie my baby's godmother is out there!" Melina said stepping over the store manager and running out of the boutique while the store manager frowned wondering what on Earth Melina was talking about.
"Here they come," Johnny said as Gash appeared in the distance and people started to scream as he drew closer.
"Whoa, Trish said he was big but I had no idea he was that big," Melina said as they moved through the screaming people heading in the opposite direction away from the 5k ft monster, "Its okay people he's not here for you!" Melina cried out to them but they didn't listen, Gash appearing on the horizon from the Hollywood sign was like something out of a 1950s horror movie. They didn't know that Gash was more like E.T than King Kong.
"Why are all these people running away from me, am I that ugly?" Gash asked the Anointed one.
"Yes," she replied and Gash pouted.
"Tell me what you really think Big Red," he said and reached down to Melina and Johnny who couldn't believe Amy's green meanie had come to life, "Greetings from the Kingdom of Heaven," Gash said.
"Greetings," Melina said back.
"I know, its hard to believe something so ugly could come from Heaven," Shawn said and Gash growled at him, "I wasn't done yet," Shawn said to Gash, "but Jesus said the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by force, and that's exactly what Gash is gonna help us do,"
"Yeah, we're gonna get LC back!" Cheyenne said and she kissed Gash on the head, "I think you're beautiful,"
"Thank you GPS," Gash said and Edge and Mysterio covered their ears.
"Dude use your indoor voice," Edge complained and Gash frowned.
"We're not indoors, what do you want me to do whisper? I'm a monster I'm over 5,000 ft tall I don't have an indoor voice Adam," Gash said and he turned to Amy, "No wonder you didn't marry this guy," he said and Adam scowled while Shawn and the Hardyz laughed.
"Yeah laugh it up V.1 she didn't marry you either," Edge said.
"Can we please focus on the task at hand people?" Joanie said.
"It would be so much easier if Trish and Randy were here, where do you think they could be?" Amy asked Shawn.
"You know who would know? Velvet let me call her again," Angelina Love said and she rang her best friend's cell phone one more time and once again it went straight to voicemail, "She doesn't have her phone on, that stupid Punk must have told her to turn it off," Angelina said angrily.
"Calm down Angelica we'll find them, won't we Lion of Judah?" Shawn said patting the huge lion next to him and The Hennigans frowned taking a closer look at the latest addition to the group not knowing that it was Triple H.
"Why do you guys have a lion with you?" Johnny asked.
"His eyes are almost human," Melina said reaching out to pet the lion and she laughed when she realized who it was, "Hunter?" she said.
"He can't talk but yeah its him," Shawn said, "the eyes are a dead giveaway, Jericho won't know what hit him,"
"I think we should be more concerned about what's going to hit us when Batista and Punk realize we're here," Mysterio said.
"Just be ready with that 619 power of yours," Amy said as they approached downtown L.A.
Punk looked out of the window of the hotel he and Batista had hijacked, the Beverly Wilshire - everyone there was asleep after running and screaming in fright from Batista and CM Punk, two people who looked nothing like they did on WWE TV. Punk looked like the Phantom of the Opera and Batista looked like a, well he didn't look like, he was a dragon. Together they took over the hotel helping themselves to whatever they wanted including a nice Penthouse suite on the top floor. Velvet Sky was there too, only Velvet Sky was not home; Punk had hypnotized her and she was under his total control.
"Hello?" Punk said answering his cell-phone and the highly agitated voice of Chris Jericho came through the receiver.
"Look out the window!" he yelled and Punk moved over to the veranda and looked outside. He had ignored the sound of people screaming simply because it was like music to his ears these days but what he couldn't ignore was the tremors shaking the whole of Los Angeles caused by the 5k ft green monster towering over the city.
"Batista look at this, its that monster from New York City!" Punk said calling over to his scaly muscle and Batista looked came out beside him and stared up at the giant green monster.
"Do you know whose monster that is?" Chris Jericho asked, he obviously did which is why he was so nervous, "Its Amy's shoulder tattoo come to life!"
"You mean that green monster - is from Heaven?" Punk said in shock.
"Yes and its here for the both of you, go stop it now!" Jericho ordered Punk who was trembling.
"I can't stop that thing!" he said looking up at Gash nervously but Batista smirked, he liked the challenge.
"I bet I can," he said and rolled his shoulders then he flew out of the window completely in dragon form up into the sky towards Gash.
"I'm coming up with LC, I want Velvet to keep an eye on her while we take care of this," Jericho said and Punk gulped nervously.
"Take care of it?" Punk said hesitantly.
"Yes take care of it, Amy and her angelic army of annoying assholes are not gonna stop me from spending time with my daughter!" Jericho insisted coming up the elevator to the penthouse suite with LC who was struggling to get away from him.
He knocked on the door and Punk opened it and Jericho brought LC over to Velvet and left with Punk.
"Make sure she doesn't leave," Punk said to Velvet before slamming the door behind him and Velvet looked over at the blond haired warrior princess with the tears in her eyes. LC quickly made a run for it and jumped out of the penthouse window but Velvet quickly pulled her back inside.
"You can't leave," Velvet said robotically pulling LC back inside and LC looked at her angrily, her cheeks were puffed out with rage and her fists were clenched tight.
"Yes I can and you're coming with me," LC replied and she pushed Velvet back out to the veranda over the top and they fell from over ten storeys in the air towards the ground.
"Look its LC!" Jeff Hardy said seeing LC and Velvet falling in the distance.
"And that's Velvet!" Angelina Love cried out and Jeff jumped off Gash with Aurora strapped to him and they flew speedily towards the falling females. Jeff caught Velvet and LC grabbed onto his leg before they hit the floor.
"Phew that was a close one," Jeff said descending to the ground.
"Look out!" Angelina Love said as a furious Jericho approached Jeff and gave him and enziguri to the back of the head. He fell back on Angelina Love and Jericho grabbed LC and jumped into his car with CM Punk who grabbed Velvet taking her with them.
"LC!" Cameron screamed, "Gash move they're getting away!"
Hunter roared at Cameron and the Amazing one realized what he was saying, "Okay let's do it, Gash can you put us down?" Cameron asked the green meanie and he put Hunter and Cameron on the ground where Cameron jumped on Hunter's back with Cheyenne and he ran in lion form after Jericho's car while Gash prepared for combat with the Dragon Batista.
"This is going to get ugly, you guys stay up here while I take care of his demonic creature," Gash said and he put Anointed Amy, Shawn St. Michaels, Melina the Miraculous, Matt, Edge, John Morrison and Rey Mysterio on the roof of the Grand Wilshire hotel a few thousand feet below where they looked down at Jeff Hardy, Aurora and Angelina Love.
"Velvet!" Angelina screamed pushing Jeff Hardy up to a sitting position but he was unconscious. She shook him but it was no use he was knocked out from Jericho's running enziguri, "Come on Jeff we have to follow Hunter, Cam and Chey!"
She shook him again but he still wouldn't stir, "Let me try," came a vaguely familiar voice and Angelina Love turned to see a very familiar face looking at her.
"Brie?" Angelina Love said in shock and Jericho's former employee approached the TNA Knockout with desperation.
"I can help Jeff," Brie said but Angelina stood in front of Jeff protectively.
"How do I know I can trust you after the stunt you and the late Brianna pulled on my WWE friends?" Angelina asked defiantly.
"Please Angelina you're running out of time, let me help him while I still can," Brie said.
"No!" Angelina Love said adamantly but Brie grabbed Jeff and pulled him close.
"Stay awake," she whispered in his ear and Jeff Hardy's green eyes popped open and he looked at the unfamiliar face staring back at him then he realized who it was and he recoiled in horror.
"Get away from me!" he said holding onto Aurora and grabbing Angelina Love, "come on let's go they're getting away!"
"Wait," Angelina said and she looked at Brie curiously, "You concocted the spell that gave Punk his sleep-inducing power didn't you?"
"Yes I did and I'm sorry I did, I hope you can forgive me," Brie said.
"I'm not interested in your guilt Brie, I need you to come with us to save Velvet, she's under Punk's hypnotic power and I want you to undo it so she doesn't hurt Hunter's little girl," Angelina said.
"What are you insane? She's a witch we can't trust her!" Jeff Hardy said disdainfully, "We do this God's way!"
"I want to do it God's way too!" Brie cried out, "I've been going to church, I was so messed up about Brianna and when Shawn Michaels told me to stop sinning I decided to use my powers for good. I can make it so Punk's powers have no effect, if you just give me a chance to redeem myself,"
"We're wasting time, Aqua Libre doesn't work with the devil's tools," Jeff Hardy said and Angelina shook her head at Brie.
"Its too late for redemption Brie, you screwed up royal and I will never forgive you for what you did to my best friend," Angelina said and she jumped on Jeff Hardy's back and he jumped up on a bus and launched himself into the air in the direction that Jericho went with LC.
Brie cried into her hands as they left and a warm hand touched her shoulder and she looked into the warm eyes of the Anointed Couple who were both smiling at her.
"It's never too late for redemption," Shawn said and before Brie could say anything Shawn spat on her forehead.
"Ew gross!" Brie complained crumpling up her face in disgust and she went to wipe the spit off but Shawn stopped her.
"Its not gross its good, besides I don't have any water," Shawn said and Brie felt a tingling sensation where Shawn's saliva began to release its spirit purifying power then Amy anointed her head with Anointing oil. Melina the Miraculous laid hands on her and passed on the Gift of Discernment, a gift from God that would allow Brie to filter out evil thoughts from the minds of those oppressed by demonic spirits, i.e. CM Punk and Velvet Sky.
"Open your eyes child of God," she said and Brie opened her eyes, "You now are permitted by God to do His work here on Earth, go because you have been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb who washes all sin away and makes the old things brand new,"
Brie felt the spirit of God rise up in her body and her eyes grew bright and she ran behind Jeff, Aurora and Angelina encouraged to do good works thanks to Amy, Shawn and Melina.
"Shouldn't we go with her?" Melina asked the Anointed Couple who were looking up at Gash who was about to evict the demon residing in Batista.
"After the match," Shawn replied and they all went back up to the roof of the Grand Wilshire to watch the explosive action with Edge, Matt Hardy and Rey Mysterio.
"Is Jeff okay?" Matt asked Amy.
"He's fine as always, come on Gash knock that demon out!" Amy yelled at her green meanie cheering him on and people below had stopped running to see what was gonna happen between the humongous monster and the dragon. The media were taping the whole thing and they informed the nation that the dragon was the same dragon that had been causing havoc up and down America for the past two weeks. They said they had no idea who the green monster was.
"Maybe we should ask that red-head that was sitting on him," one of the journalists said to their colleague.
"That's Lita, my God she's gotten so fat! Let's go talk to her," the reporter said, it was Anita Wong one of L.A's most notorious journalists recognizing the notorious ex-WWE Diva and she headed towards the Grand Wilshire to ask the former Women's Champion some questions about her big green friend and also to recommend a good gym.
Gash zoned in on the dragon and bore his gruesome teeth, "You have a chance to get out of this demon but you're not taking Dave Batista with you," Gash warned the demon but Batista struck Gash hard across the face with his tail and Gash grew angry, "Fine, we'll do this your way," he snarled and he swiped at Batista with his huge hand and Batista evaded him circling the skyscrapers and he came back for another attack. As he flew towards Gash the green monster opened his mouth and Batista flew right into it. Gash chewed him a little then spat him out onto the Hollywood sign. Batista struggled to get airborne with all the celestial saliva reducing his demonic power; he was being transformed by the cleansing substance currently dripping from every part of him. The dragon cried out because it knew it was done for but Batista couldn't be more relieved. He felt the demonic spirit leaving him and he started to turn back into himself.
"No, this isn't over yet!" the demon said and Batista quickly turned back into a dragon and grew to about 4k ft.
"I was expecting this," Gash said to Anointed Amy and he punched the dragon back into the Hollywood sign destroying it on impact.
"I'll pay for that," Amy said to some Hollywood executives who were watching from their offices nearby looking at all the damage the two monsters were causing.
Batista hit Gash with his wing knocking the side of a building down as he did so, Gash speared him to the ground and they crushed some buildings as they fell. Fortunately most people were watching the action on from the other side so no-one was hurt, yet.
"Excuse me Lita, can I ask you some questions!" Miss. Wong said coming towards Anointed Amy, "Wait you're not fat you're pregnant!"
Amy rolled her eyes and Shawn shooed Miss. Wong and her colleague away, "Shoo!" he said batting the annoying journalist away like a fly.
"It's Anita Wong!" John Morrison said recognizing her from a press release party MNM went to last year and Melina immediately struck a pose.
"Which side do I look more pregnant from?" she asked Anita.
"You look fat from all angles," Anita replied and Melina gasped at how she just got disrespected in front of her peers by this abrasive journalist who was obviously more interested in Amy than her. "Who's the father?" she asked Amy who had heard enough of Miss. Wong for one lifetime.
"This isn't really the time," Amy said but Anita persisted.
"Is it Matt Hardy or is it Edge?" she pressed and Amy could feel her Righteous Indignation about to surface.
"619!" Rey Mysterio said holding onto Anita Wong and her camera man and he took them both back to San Diego with him.
"Thank you Rey!" Amy called in the direction of San Diego while the battle between Gash and Batista raged on. Batista took to the air intending the dive down on Gash from thousands of miles up above. Gash pounded his fist against the ground and created a huge crater, he then jumped up and hit Batista with an Xtreme Impaler DDT, the kind Lita used to finish off her opponents in the ring and it was just as effective here as Batista was completely immobilized by it.
"Have you had enough, do you want to do things my way now?" Gash asked the demon and the dragon tried to get up but when he cried out Gash knew Batista was crying out for deliverance, "Let's set you free Big Dave," Gash said and he picked the dragon up by the neck, stood it on its feet and then executed a Twist of Fate right into the crater. The whole of Los Angeles shook from the impact as the dragon plunged into the Earth under the surface of the city into the dark hot depths below.
Matt Hardy and Edge covered their mouths thinking that Batista was dead but Amy, Shawn and Melina knew better and the Superstars watched in relief as the sore and slightly banged up form of Dave Batista climbed out of the crater and Gash lifted him up and put him on top of the Grand Wilshire next to his friends who were glad that he was alive.
"I feel like I've been in the battle of my life," Dave said to Shawn who quickly rubbed him with the Balm of Gilead and healed up all his bruises, "That's better, where have you been I could have used you," Dave said and Shawn put his arm around Big Dave.
"I've been right here Dave, I never left you for a second. Now let's go friend the other half of DX and let him know that his old friend is back,"
"Come on Gash, its time to go home," Amy said holding out her arm and Gash waved goodbye to her dear friends.
"Bye Gash!" they all said as the big green meanie shrunk into a little green meanie and jumped back into Amy's arm.
"I think we'll be just in time for Jericho's gig," Edge said looking at his watch.
"It'll be his last," Melina said as they headed towards the House of Blues where Jericho was planning on putting on the show of the year, he didn't know that the show was about to turn into a horror movie and Hunter was in the starring role.
