A/N: I still don't own any of these WWE characters in this story.

Lanay sat at the table drinking her morning glass of tea; it was better than the coffee she recently gave up. The weather in Florida was cooler than normal or maybe she was just feeling the tremors of her new mission. Her loyalty to The Authority knew no bounds, they took her in when she was only 16 years old and trained her. .

Corbin was a fool of a man and too easy to take down a thrill was one she needed significantly. The thought of seeing her old friends gave an adrenaline rush she was longing for.

The last time she felt this excited was after killing her brother only in spirit Mattias, a name she remembered but he now went by Tyler Breeze. It was such a fitting name for a narcissistic asshole. He tormented her growing up and she wasn't shocked he grew into torturing other kids that were brought into his mother's home. She looked forward to the day her blood would spill and only hoped it would be on her hands. Tyler's kill was a birthday gift from The Authority, they gave her his name wrapped with a single gold bow she still kept in her dresser affectionately.

Hunter and Stephanie have been good to me. Lanay thought finishing her tea and looked around the studio apartment that held only a small table, a small fridge, and a small moveable closet, of course the modest small bathroom tucked in the corner. It was perfect in case a quick getaway was needed.

The shower last night did satisfy getting the dirt she felt Corbin left on her. He could've been a beautiful man in a different life but he would never know that now.

"Time to get ready Nay, got an important day." She spoke to herself.

Lanay went through her dresser trying to find something fitting for the day. She wanted to observe Sami first get a feel of his routine, she also had to know the roles of the men that followed him.

"Skirt or slacks? Skirt or slacks?" Lanay repeated to herself. "Slacks. Plain. Black. A skirt will bring more attention to you since men only cared about what you could offer to them."

Lanay picked out simple black business suit she would wear under a high button gold shirt. Hunter always complimented the way the gold shined against her dark skin. It was a backwards compliment, one to get under the skin of his wife. She never understood their marriage or maybe business deal. Stephanie allowed him to cheat and he gave her the same accommodation. It was odd but after never having a relationship who was she to judge them.

The woman quickly got dressed she wanted to be at her destination before business started to get a feel of the area first. "Downtown Orlando, how I loathe you. Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Your life will come to an end Sami and if your friends get involved, I have full disclosure to bring theirs as well." The emotion that hit her was one she hadn't felt in a long time. "Let's do this".

Morning

The morning rush of seeing professionals with their lattes and dark coffee bustled around her head. The small café she sat at gave her a perfect view whenever Sami came into play. The people around her paid no attention to the notebook and pen as she jotted down the environment around her. In her line of work most wouldn't sit in the open but she was damn good at her job and keeping obscurity and staying under the radar.

"Bingo."

Lanay watched as Callihan finally arrived to his office "Callihan Enterprises" flanked by the men from her past.

"My, my my, you guys sure have grown up." Lanay murmured taking in their suits some fancy designer if she could guess by the material Brioni. The small smile hit her lips automatically.

The men didn't walk in after him which threw her off for a moment, expecting them to follow after Sami. "Interesting"

She kept watching them as they stood outside the building seemingly laughing at each other and she caught the shorter of the trio eyes they held a glimmer in them and she remembered that look. "No, No No, Fuck. This can't be happening." Lanay groaned to herself.

This wasn't an average task and the feeling of Hunter testing her was not far from the mark. She hated when he did this to her, testing her strengths and even her weaknesses. It was like he wanted to push her limits and when she saw the pictures she should've known the rumors of them leaving the work were false. Why didn't I put two and two together? Why would I assume they would just pop back in my life for some unknown reason, especially him?

"Foolish idiots. Why are you showing your faces so openly?" Lanay couldn't stop talking to herself smiling at the couple across the table that looked over warily. She ignored their glances instead choosing to focus on her task. It was inevitable their paths would cross again.

Lanay continued watching them talk outside and had a sense something wasn't right. She couldn't put her finger on it not from this distance. It was a feeling and she trusted those more than anything. She had to continue monitor Sami however, he was the target. The feeling she filed away taking her eyes off the men and writing in her notebook everything she found out just from the morning.

If they are involved getting to Sami may be harder than I originally thought but I love a challenge.

The men laughed amongst themselves but not before one turned in her direction. Lanay chose to pick up her cup of tea sipping it and closing her eyes to savor the liquid running down her throat. The small purse on the chair next to her only held one other item, a habit she still couldn't break as she pulled out the pack of cigarettes drawing one and lighting it.

It was a horrible habit she wanted to break but so freeing at the same time. The look finally left her face and the men walked inside of the building finally.

She took her phone out immediately calling Hunter. "What is this about?"

"What do you mean?" Hunter's voice held sarcasm. He knew the reason for the call and was shocked she was just now putting it together.

"Do they have any involvement?"

"Not that I'm aware of but we're still fact checking."

"They're on the job as well, they're still in business."

"Interesting."

"You knew this already didn't you?"

"What I know isn't always best for you to know. I trust you to take care of what you need to and come back home soon."

"Don't I always dad?" She threw the term of endearment out, he was like her father figure.

"That's my girl." Hunter couldn't help but let the proudness drip from his voice. "Anything else?"

There was plenty more she wanted to ask and say trying to put together what was going on but not now. "I'll be by the club later."

"I expect it. I'll fill you in more when you get here."

"I'll leave you to do work. Could you ask Stephanie to come? I need to speak with her."

"Of course. I have some things to take care of here. I'll leave you to it." Hunter hung up always having to get the last word. She used to defy him at all costs but he did always look out for her best interests.

She put the phone away and decided to make the use of her time as she surveyed the surroundings and did some digging on Mr. Callihan.

Afternoon

Lanay did some light shopping not wanting to patronize the café too long so they wouldn't recognize her face. She checked her watch making it back to his place of business noting it was 11:30AM. The man himself walked out and this time alone.

"Introduction time." Lanay smiled grabbing her things and throwing her shades back on.

He walked past her quickly bumping into her as she dropped all of her things.

"Watch where you're going" His voice was grave as he looked down, his spiky hair was neat as he righted his tie.

"How about an apology." Lanay kept her voice low pretending to grumble putting her objects back in her purse.

"Me? Apologize?" The laugh was curt and very unpleasant to her ears.

It's going to be fun to kill you asshole. She kept her eyes down quickly. He was taller than her but not by much, about 5'10" that was 4 inches above her.

He stepped over as she stood up watching him walk off smiling. I may have to get to you quicker in three days.

"You should be careful." A familiar voice said to her back. "Don't want you tripping up do we?"

Lanay turned around seeing the bane of her existence and one of the three men she was avoiding.

"Rollins."

"Lanay."

"Don't fuck with me on this."

"No. You don't fuck with us on this. We also have a job to do."

"Don't get in my way Rollins."

Rollins grabbed her hand. "You don't know what you're dealing with." She looked around him and saw the other two coming towards him and she pulled away quickly. "I have a job to do, just don't get in my way or you'll be a casualty as well."

"You can't."

"I'm not the same girl I was before. I will." Brown eyes stared into hers and he knew her words were serious. She wouldn't hesitate to finish the job, his hand instinctively went to his abdomen rubbing it.

She quickly walked away from him as the other two men walked up to him.

"Was that?" The brunette spoke up in his raspy voice.

"Yeah."

The third man looked over at Lanay's retreating figure. "We can't let her get to him first."

"I know." Rollins spoke up clearing his throat. "I know."

A/N: This is going to be a fun journey we're on. Thanks everyone for reading/reviewing. I'll say again this is new territory for me and a chance to explore a different universe. I appreciate anyone that wants to take the ride with me.
