Joining the enemy
"You're turning Heel"? Mickie asked in surprise. Melina closed her eyes for a couple of seconds before answering. "I was told that I will be aligning myself with the Bellas. I can do whatever else, but not that." Melina put both hands on her forehead. "Relax Mel, besides you're a wonderful heel. People prefer that side of you." Now it was Mickie who had to cheer Melina in this case. Melina viewed the time on her phone; 5:30. "What time is the Battle Royal scheduled"? Mickie asked. "Mid-card, 7:15 it's going to be about 6 minutes long. Shoot, when was the last time I was in the ring for over 10 minutes? Yes, I remember, 3 years ago." Both Melina and Mickie shared an unpleasant look. "Well you got to do what you're told to do, and there's nothing you or I can do about it." Mickie said. "You're right, but hey it's time for me go are you staying at the arena or are you going back to the hotel"? Mickie and Melina stood up from the table at the same time. "I'll be in the locker room watching your match, don't worry. I can't miss your heel turn, girl." Melina and Mickie walk out of Starbucks and walk towards the arena.
Melina walked towards the Woman's locker room and Mickie decided to take a walk towards the male's locker room, in this case she wanted to talk to a special friend of hers, John Cena. John Cena was everyone's friend backstage. He had a pretty awesome personality and great charisma. She needed to laugh and have a good time to keep her mind busy and letting her troubles behind. She passed the locker rooms of Randy Orton, Kofi, and Santino, and there it was; John Cena's. She knocked on the door. A few seconds later, the door opens and John Cena steps out. "Hey, Mickie! How's it going"? John says as soon as she sees Mickie on the door step. "I'm ok, John thanks, hm… may I talk to you for a bit if you don't mind or are you going to the ring a few?"Mickie didn't wanted to distract John Cena from his in ring duties, but deep inside her, she knew she was distracting him some way. "Oh no, chill out Mickie, I'm off for an hour, sure come in. What is it that you need to talk about"? Mickie stepped inside and stood at the door. "Well, I don't want to take much of your time, but I really wanted to talk to you about a certain dilemma happening around me… I'm actually considering… well… retirement." Mickie dropped her head and shoulders after expressing those words. "You're not serious right"? John asked. "I'm very serious. These couples of months haven't been the best for me and I'm just getting tired dealing with all this crap I hear backstage. Gossip, rumors, lies…" It was then that Mickie broke down into tears. "I can't do this any much longer…" John approached Mickie and gave her hug. "Mickie, this is the second time I see you like this and it breaks my heart dearly. I've told you not to listen. Backstage rumors and politics are our everyday bread, you shouldn't eat it. You gotta fight. "And Vince wants to talk to Bryan and myself tomorrow morning. I already know or at least I have a clue on what he wants to talk about, but I will let him know how I feel." Mickie wiped some of her tears. "Leaving is not the answer. It will lead to even more problems and talk. You don't want that. John handed her some toilet paper which he found in his locker room. "Always there when you need them." He refereed the the paper. Mickie finally smiled. "True… well I better get going and thanks for your words. You're truly an awesome friend John." Mickie gave him a hug and walked out of the locker room.
7:10 The Battle Royal was about to being in a couple of minutes and Mickie was alone in the locker room. She wished she had her own locker room just like the guys, but they had the girls all together. The LCD television screen showed the last commercial which were about car insurance than the show was back on the USA channel. Lillian Garcia, stood inside the ring when the bell rang. "The following match is a diva over the top Battle Royal and it will determine who will be competing for the Divas Championship at Wrestlemania!" Nikki and Brie come out first to view the match, they didn't get a major pop like Melina, Kelly Kelly, or Beth Phoenix. It was strange because all the divas came out at the same time. What a great way to save time right? Mickie didn't appreciate that. Thank God she wasn't in it. Mickie watched as all the divas fought with all their might for a chance at the Divas Championship. Rosa didn't last even 2 minutes, she was the first person eliminated. Alicia Fox got eliminated by the dominant Beth Phoenix a few minutes later. There were 6 competitors total. Melina, Natalya, Kelly Kelly, Beth Phoenix, Eve Torres, and Aksana. Aksana lasted more than Alicia Fox but got eliminated by Eve Torres. Now it was Eve, Melina, Kelly, Beth, and Natalya left in the ring. It was good competition and well worth for the fans. To Beth surprise, All the other divas joined forces to eliminate her being the most powerful one. As Natalya, Beth former friend waved good bye to her, Eve Torres didn't wait any longer to eliminate Natayla who was distracted with Beth. Melina, Eve, and Kelly were left in the ring. 8 minutes into the match, it was long compared to other 3 minute matches. Nikki and Brie talked about how good they were in the ring and being the number one reason why men went to see WWE. Mickie thought it was a joke. The Bella twins were a joke. Eve being the heel, Melina and Kelly looked at each other and aligned to try to take out Eve. They accomplished the goal. Now it was Melina and Kelly left in the ring. This only made Mickie wonder how it was that Melina will turn heel. Melina made the crowd cheer like never before and all of a sudden, She eliminates herself out the match. Thus, leaving Kelly in the ring puzzled. The bell rings for the second time and Lillian announces Kelly Kelly as the winner. Everyone looks in shock as to why Melina eliminated herself. In that moment, The Bella twins enter the ring and meet Kelly Kelly. They start bashing on her before hurting her physically. As Melina watches she runs back to the ring. As Melina enters the ring, the Bellas step out shouting "Do what you have to do!" Melina helps Kelly Kelly back to her feet seconds later, she tumbles and hits Kelly Kelly unmercifully.
