Chapter 9
Note- It's twist time so review.
Jim Cornett was in the middle of the ring. He knew he had to get control back. "Alright ever since I took office this place has had its ups and its downs. But going back to Victory Road this place has been a mad house. Samoa Joe the world champion snapped and basically John Wayned, Booker T so bad that Booker thought he was still with WCW. You know I'm being honest only there could a guy win a title on a fall counted by his wife," Jim says with a quick joke.
"Anyway out comes Sting and he winds up taking Joe out leaving everyone to ask why? Next thing we know bats, bats, and more bats. We get Hard Justice and once again it's Booker and Joe only this time two Stings show up. You know what happened one was Jake Reed. And since than it's been a freaking nightmare and now well we got guitars showing up," Jim says as Jake's music starts to play.
"Well the guitars are showing and both times they have wound up hitting Jake Reed," Mike says. "And you Mike I'm glade to see it. This guy nearly has cost Samoa Joe the world title twice. Not to mention every all that he has done to AJ Styles," Don says. "You gonna get kabonged," Some very creative fans chant.
Jake was facing Jim but now turns to where the chant was coming from. "Tonight you are going to go home get on your computer… No I'm not going to do it. I have more important things to deal with. So Jim let's talk about guitars," Jake says. "Well I would think after the last two weeks where you got one wrapped around your head you want to come out here in a helmet," Jim says. "This isn't funny old man. I tend to remember I beat Jeff Jarrett in a match where he had to leave TNA forever," Jake says.
"Well Jake your right but forever is an awful long time. And there is always a loop hole and in this case in order to be reinstated all Jeff would have to do is pin a former TNA champion in a TNA ring," Jim says. "Well that isn't going to happen. Jarrett is dead the second I see…" The lights go out.
When the come back on Jeff stands behind Jake armed with a guitar. Jake turns around and like the fans said get kabonged. Jeff than picks Jake and hits the stroke and covers Jim gets down and counts 1 2 3. "The King of the Mountain is back," Don yells. The entire babyface roster comes out to celebrate even AJ and Joe show up to shake Jarrett's hand.
Backstage Angle and Booker walk up to Jake. "Jake the offer to work with us still stands," Kurt says. "Well than I am going to take it. You see with me and AJ it's a personal but if management wants to bring back that… Than they pushed me to do this," Jake says. "Tonight we celebrate," Booker says. "Dance puppets dance. It's all going according to plan," Jake thinks.
Jake followed Angle and Booker in a club. "Jacob my friend this is the finest club in Orlando," Booker says. "Yeah and the best part there is no way the marks could afford to get in here," Kurt says. "Sounds good to me. Just tell me is the whisky good?" Jake asks. "Buddy the whisky the have I here makes the best whisky you have ever had taste like crap," Kurt says.
The three walk into the club. Kurt brings them over to a roped off VIP room. "Devon just stuff some more in your pockets it all on Kurt's tab," Ray says as he stuffs shrimp into his pockets. "Hey guys," Kurt says. "Oh Kurt you here… Man you should complain to the manger look at how few shrimp they give us," Ray says. "Jake Reed it's good to see you," Devon says. "Yeah bro we love all the help," Ray says. "Guys I'll say it again I wasn't the one dropping those bats," Jake says.
"Of course your not," Sting says walking into the room. "If I were still a kid I would be heartbroken right now. But than again I'm not a kid," Jake says. "You know Jake some day the kids will understand why I did this. Me, Kurt, Booker, and 3D we built the business that AJ and Joe take for granted," Sting says.
"So everyone knows you get the title shot so what's the plan to make sure you win?" Jake asks. "Now Jake you just joined the club we can't give all the secrets away," Sting says. "I guess your right about that," Jake says.
Traci walked into her apartment. She put the mail on the kitchen table. "Bill, bill, what is this," Traci says as she picks up a letter the address was in Jake's handwriting. Traci opened it and started to read.
Dear Traci,
You have every right to be furious with me. But since your reading this I guess not all hope is lost. After our divorce I went through some really bad points. I relapsed because I stopped caring. Losing Brian, AJ, and most all you tore me apart. But than about four months ago before I wrote this I had this dream. I was getting drunk behind a shop of some kind when this guy showed. He just kept looking at me before saying "Doing this won't stop the pain and it won't bring me back," so than I took a good look at the guy.
And than it hit me it was Brian not my brother but what our son would like as a young man. When I woke up for the first time I actually cried for the first time I let myself feel the pain because the drinking was numbing me out. I finally got up and started to fight. I won't say it was easy but I got sober. If I have sent this letter you know the rest of the story. And why I acted like such a freaking jackass the last few months.
But Traci you have to understand I couldn't tell you what was going on. I had to make people think I hated you. Because if any one found out what you that are as you have always been my heart the other half of my soul it would have put you in danger. I couldn't let that happen.
I know you were trying to find me before I came back TNA. I hope and pray you still want to talk because Traci you are it for me. So please try to understand what is going on. I had to this to protect you and to protect the company so many people have built.
Love,
Jake
Traci was in shock. This letter almost made no sense. "Wait it like I missing part of the story. So far all I know is Jake came back there has to be something more," Traci thought.
Jake walked down below on his boat. "You did a good job," the person he was working with said. "You know it's rude to just come aboard with out the captain saying it's ok," Jake says. "Well I didn't want to risk calling you I figured if someone was with you I could just hit you again," the person says. "You know you took it a little too far. Angle and Booker are so stupid they would have bought it after the first," Jake says. "I had to make it effective so who else is working Angle and Booker?" The person asks.
Jake picks up a bottle of beer. "Want so non alcoholic beer in a regular bottle?" The guy just nods. "Well your right Sting is working them. Something about AJ and Joe taking advantage of what he built," Jake says. "Anyone else we don't have confirmed?" "No one else for sure but than again they don't trust me fully yet. But I got an idea Jeff!"
