Rebirth-Chapter Twenty Two-All Out War

BEEP! BEEP! BEE... the alarm died as Jason's fist crashed down on it.

"Shopping list, alarm clock" he muttered to himself looking at the shattered remains.

"Break another clock?" Asked Mara.

"Yup" replied the teen staggering out of the room, he went into the lounge and flipped on the TV, he dropped onto the sofa then jumped as it let out a yell.

"What the..." Jason then laughed as Sonjay sat up, along with Chris they hadn't gotten back from Japan until Wednesday, Jason had offered the two of them a place to stay for the night before Impact, Chris had won the battle for the spare room leaving Sonjay with the sofa.

"Good night's sleep Sonjay?"

"Can't complain" muttered Sonjay groggily. "What time is it?"

"Just gone ten".

Sonjay nodded and put his head back down, Jason turned back to the TV.

"Y'know" said Sonjay after a long pause. "The next time we go to Japan remind me not to have a room next to you and Mara".

"Excuse me?"

"Put it this way, the honeymoon couple above me and Chris made less noise than you two".

Jason laughed. "That loud huh?"

"Yup, Chris actually went looking for earplugs, where is he anyway?"

"Sleeping".

"Really" Sonjay got up and went to the kitchen, he came back in with two glasses of water and handed one to Jason with an evil grin on his face, the two snuck past Mara in the hallway and slipped into the spare room, Mara shrugged and went into the kitchen, seconds later she heard Chris screaming and Jason and Sonjay laughing their heads off.

That night the three X Division stars and Mara walked into the Impact zone, they all seemed to be in good spirits although Jason's desire to get a hold on AJ was slowly building, they dumped their bags in the locker room and went to check the card for the night, Sonjay got there first and winced when he saw it.

"What?" Demanded Jason, Sonjay just pointed, Jason followed it and saw written on the board 'AJ Styles and Rhino vs. Jason Cena and TBD'.

Jason smirked. "Alright, I get a piece of AJ tonight!"

"Uhh hello?" Interrupted Sonjay. "You're facing him and Rhino! And you don't have a partner!"

Before Jason could reply Chris grabbed a pen, he rubbed out TBD and wrote his name next to Jason's.

"Thanks man, you were saying Sonjay?"

"Your funeral" replied Sonjay with a shrug.

Jason and Chris just laughed and the three went back to the locker room, just outside the door Jason turned to talk to Chris but was tackled off his feet! He hit the ground hard and looked up to see AJ swinging at any part of him he could reach, he covered up to protect himself as Chris and Sonjay pulled AJ off him, he fought free and began hammering away on Jason again, Jerry and several other agents came sprinting over and dived between them, as they were pulling AJ away Jason jumped up and went for him but Chris and Sonjay grabbed him, Jerry left the agents with AJ and helped drag Jason into the locker room while the agents hauled AJ away.

Jason's anger following the fight had slowly built up through the night, now he was pacing up and down the locker room waiting to get out to the ring and face AJ, Chris was sitting in a corner with Jerry talking strategy, Jay and Sonjay were just sitting together watching Jason pace.

"Shall we ask him what he thinks?" Asked Chris.

"Do you wanna risk it?" Replied Jerry. "He's gonna tear someone apart, just make sure he doesn't get you DQ'ed and you're fine".

Chris nodded. "Hey kid! Five minutes!" Jason nodded and went back to pacing, Chris left the room to go wait alone, Jay flipped on the monitor just as AJ was giving an interview with JB, Jason stiffened up and Jay quickly flipped it back off, Jason seemed to calm down and walked out of the locker room, Jay shrugged at Sonjay and flipped the monitor back on, AJ was still talking to JB when Jason came out of nowhere and jumped him! he pummeled AJ with right hands then slammed him head first into a wall, AJ slumped to the ground and Jason stomped away at him until TNA security ran in and pulled him off, AJ staggered to his feet and tried to run after them but Rhino grabbed a hold of him.

"Save it for the ring AJ" AJ frowned and nodded before the two headed for the entranceway.

Chris's music hit to play him and Jason out to the ring, Chris led them out and went to pose but Jason just pushed past him and walked down towards the ring, Mara and Chris both tried to keep him focused but it didn't seem to be working, they got in the ring and Chris posed for the crowd while Jason just stared up at the tunnel AJ would be emerging from, sure enough the Phenominal One's music hit and he walked out onto the stage, Jason immediately began calling for AJ to come down to the ring, AJ just stared back at him before taking off his jacket and the X Division belt and dropped them on the stage, then Rhino's music hit and 'The War Machine' came out to join his partner, they exchanged a glance then sprinted down to the ring! Jason bailed and met AJ at the bottom of the ramp while Rhino dived into the ring to go at it with Chris.

AJ and Jason were finally free to fight it out and they were taking full advantage of it, they were both exchanging right hands on the outside, neither one giving an inch, in the ring Rhino had backed Chris into a corner and was pounding away at him with punches, he pulled him out of the corner and whipped him only for Chris to come back with a headscissor takedown, Rhino bounced up and Chris quickly dropped him with a neckbreaker for a two-count, AJ had gained control over Jason and clotheslined him over the barrier into the crowd, he followed and went began hammering away on Jason with right hands then hit a big one to knock him down before grabbing a chair! He swung for Jason's head but the teen ducked then began hitting right hands on AJ. In the ring Chris was enjoying a spell of control over Rhino by using his pace to stay away from him, he hit Rhino with some right hands then hit an enziguri before dropping Rhino with a DDT for another two-count.

Chris continued to try and put Rhino down quickly, he suplexed 'The War Machine' then followed that with a backbreaker for another near fall, in the crowd Jason and AJ were still trying to beat each other to a pulp in the crowd, AJ had regained the advantage and was trying to pounding away on Jason, he went for a clothesline but Jason ducked, he set AJ up for an impaler but AJ backdropped out of it and went for a Styles Clash on the concrete floor! Jason countered by taking out his legs and catapulting him into a wall, he stomped on AJ a few times then finally started to head back to the ring. Meanwhile Chris was trying to pound Rhino down and went for a powerbomb but Rhino backdopped out of it, he grabbed Chris and set him up for the Rhino driver but Chris escaped and went for the Cradle Shock! Just before he could hit it Rhino slipped off his shoulders and pushed him away, Chris came back and charged him but Rhino hit a sidewalk slam for a two-count, he pulled Chris up and whipped him then caught him with a spinebuster, instead of covering he backed into a corner and called for the Gore! Chris climbed to his feet and Rhino charged only for Jason to come out of nowhere and almost take his head off with a clothesline.

Jason helped Chris up and the two began stomping away at Rhino, the referee managed to get Jason off and back to his corner then Chris brought Rhino over, he tagged Jason and whipped Rhino before catching him with a spinkick to the gut, Jason quickly followed up with a knee then they both hit the ropes and hit a double running senton, Jason covered but Rhino kicked out. Jason dragged him back to his corner and tagged Chris back in before slamming Rhino then using the ropes to slingshot his partner in on top of Rhino, Chris quickly made a cover but Rhino kicked out again, Chris hit a few right hands then picked Rhino up and threw him into his corner then hit a running big boot and tagged Jason. The teen came in and dragged Rhino out to the middle of the ring then whipped him and hit a powerslam for a two-count, Jason pulled Rhino back to the corner and tagged Chris before whipping Rhino, he lifted him up for a spinebuster and Chris added a missile dropkick to put Rhino down, Chris covered but AJ finally made it back to the ring to break it up.

AJ tried to take a shot at Jason but the referee stopped him, while they were arguing Jason came in and hit Rhino with a shining wizard, Chris covered but Rhino kicked out, Chris dragged him to a corner and hung him upside down, he choked Rhino with his boot then backed off and went for the hesitation dropkick but Rhino moved causing him to slide crotch-first into the ringpost! The whole arena winced and Rhino began crawling to the corner, just as he got to within arms reach of AJ Jason came in and pulled Rhino back, Chris limped over and tagged Jason in allowing the teen to come in and work Rhino over, he hit a suplex then stomped Rhino down before going to the top-rope, he waited for Rhino to stand then came down with a huge cross-body for a two-count, he pulled 'The War Machine' back to his corner and tagged Chris, he came in a little slowly which got a laugh out of Jason. Chris hit Rhino with some spinkicks to knock him back into the ropes then whipped him and went for an elbow, Rhino ducked, blind-tagged AJ, ducked another elbow and slid out of the ring while AJ hit Chris with a springboard forearm! He opened up on Chris with right hands then jumped up and decked Jason, he tried to follow but Chris grabbed him, he spun round and dropped him with a clothesline then set him up for a suplex, Chris tried to slip out but AJ held on and dropped him with a neckbreaker, he covered but only got a two-count.

Jason tried to jump back into the ring but AJ just sent him back to the outside, Chris got back up and AJ just sent him down with another clothesline before hitting a jumping kneedrop, he pulled Chris back up and hit a pumphandle gutbuster for another two-count, Jason again tried to come in but AJ just sent him back out again then grabbed Chris and hit a back-suplex for a two-count, he whipped Chris into a corner and charged him only to run into a boot, Chris tried a clothesline but AJ ducked and hit the Pele! He looked down at him then began climbing to the top-rope, Jason tried to stop him but got knocked to the floor, AJ stood up but Chris cut him off then took him down to the mat with a hurricanranna! He rolled into a cover but AJ kicked out at two, Chris crawled to a corner and tagged in Jason, the teen jumped in and began hammering away on AJ, he backed the Phenomenal One into a corner and began working him over with punches to the ribs and head before whipping him and hitting a powerslam for a two-count. Jason pulled AJ up and whipped him towards the corner but it was reversed, he hit the corner hard and AJ charged only for Jason to lift him up and drop him on the turnbuckle leaving him hanging upside down, Jason hit him with a kick to ribs then tagged Chris, they went to the opposite corner then Chris whipped Jason allowing him to hit a stinger splash! The teen then walked to the middle of the ring and dropped to his hands and knees, Chris ran forward and launched himself off Jason's back to hit the hesitation dropkick! AJ dropped to the mat allowing Jason and Chris to each grab a leg then hit a double wheelbarrow faceplant! Chris covered but AJ kicked out.

Chris dragged AJ back to his corner and tagged in Jason, the teen came in and they whipped AJ and went for a double elbow but AJ ducked, jumped the middle-rope, backflipped behind them and dropped them both with a reverse DDT! Rhino began screaming for a tag and AJ began crawling to his corner... and got the tag! 'The War Machine' began running through both Jason and Chris with clotheslines before grabbing the teen and dropping him with a powerbomb, before he could cover Chris jumped him, he hit hino with some right hands then backed off and charged but got hit with a sidewalk slam, Jason got up and hit Rhino with some right hands then whipped him, it was reversed then Rhino caught the teen with a huge spinebuster! He covered but Chris broke it up, Rhino decked Chris then picked him up and hit a running powerslam, Jason staggered to his feet then Rhino grabbed him and went for another running powerslam but Jason slipped out then spun him round and dropped him with the impaler! He covered but AJ broke it up.

AJ began hammering away on Jason and backed him up against the ropes, he charged but Jason ducked and backdropped him to the outside, he went to follow him but Chris stopped him and told him to go after Rhino before diving through the ropes himself and taking out AJ, Rhino had pulled himself up in a corner and Jason went for the stinger splash but Rhino moved! Jason hit the turnbuckle hard and staggered back while Rhino hit the ropes and went for the Gore but Jason leapfrogged it and hit a huge superkick! He crawled into a cover but Rhino kicked out. They pulled themselves up and Jason tried a whip, Rhino reversed it and sent Jason to the corner, the teen tried to go up and over but Rhino grabbed his legs and hit an Alabama slam! He then backed away and called for the Gore! He started forward towards Jason but at the last second Chris pushed the teen out of the way and took it himself! He rolled to the outside while Jason suddenly rolled Rhino up into a pin! The referee counted... and Jason got the three!

Normally Jason would have gone nuts after pinning someone as high on TNA food chain as Rhino but instead he was already outside the ring going after AJ, he clotheslined the Phenomenal One into the crowd and followed, the two exchanged punches while TNA security came running down but instead of pulling the two apart just positioned themselves between the fighters and the crowd leaving them free to fight, not that Jason or AJ noticed, they were too focused on beating the hell out of each other. They brawled through the crowd and out a side exit that had them out in the parking lot, AJ took control and slammed Jason's head into the side of an ambulance then hit him with a trash can, he stomped Jason down then whipped him towards the side of a truck but Jason reversed it then clotheslined AJ to the ground, he dragged AJ around then pushed him up against the side of a car and hit some right hands, he then grabbed a scaffolding pipe and swung for AJ's head, the Phenominal One ducked and the pipe shattered the window of the car he'd been leaning on, AJ decked Jason to knock the pipe out of his hands then threw him on the hood of another car and began pounding away with right hands until Jason rolled to the floor to escape.

AJ chased after the teen and continued to beat on him through the parking lot hitting him with whatever he could grab, at some point in the fight Jason had been busted open and blood was now pouring out of his head. They were now fighting right next to TNA production truck and Jason hit a kick below the belt to take the advantage, he grabbed some electrical cable and wrapped it around AJ's neck, he choked away at AJ for a while then let him go and threw him into the side of the truck, he then grabbed a chair and swung for AJ but only got the side of the truck allowing AJ to knock him down and whip him with the length of wire. AJ pulled the teen to his feet and dragged him towards a table which had food and drink for the production staff laid out on it, he swept them all to the floor and turned back to Jason only to be met with a shot to the stomach and get slammed through the table!

Jason still didn't let up and began dragging AJ back to the arena, stopping every now and then to bounce AJ's head off whatever he walked past, they were now back inside the arena fighting in front of a concession stand, Jason grabbed AJ's head and slammed it into the glass casing around the popcorn before knocking him to the ground, he then grabbed a drink and took a big gulp before spitting the rest in AJ's face, he turned to pose to the crowd and when he turned back AJ sprayed mustard in his face then put his head through the glass! Popcorn poured to the ground while AJ dragged Jason back through the crowd towards the ring. AJ grabbed a chair and clubbed Jason across the back with it before chaging him only for Jason to backdrop him over the rail, the teen then threw AJ in the ring and began pounding away at him when Jim Cornette appeared on one of the ramps waving frantically, suddenly the locker room emptied as wrestlers and agents sprinted down to the ring, despite the number of people trying to get between them AJ and Jason continued to fight it out. Finally the two were pulled apart as Lance Hoyt, the Naturals and the James Gang held AJ back in a corner while Chris, Jay, Sonjay, Jerry and Shark Boy all piled on top of Jason to keep him down, AJ was bodily dragged out of the ring and up the ramp while Jason was kept in the ring, the teen raised a hand to his head and stared at the blood as though noticing it for the first time, he turned his eyes back to AJ and his face slowly cracked into a grin.
