Chapter Twelve – Insufficient Funds
Long Island, New York
Aurora was trying to use her bank card to withdraw some cash but she was having difficulty getting any money out.
"Oh come on," she snapped in agitation as the ATM machine rejected her card for the second time. Marion Cena watched as she inspected the card to see if there was anything wrong with it but it looked like it always did. He leaned over and inspected the card for himself to see if he noticed anything unusual.
"Let me see it," he said and when he took the card it stuck to his fingers because it was so cold. "Well there's your problem, your Gift from God has frozen your card and now it's too cold for you to use, that's why the ATM machine's rejecting it,"
Aurora laughed and shook her head, "I didn't even notice my weather powers were in active mode," she said. "If you rub my card in between your hands it should warm it up,"
"Okay let's give that a try," Marion said and he rubbed the bank card like he was making fire between his hands then Aurora tried the card again and it worked.
"Success! Thank you Marion, I don't know what I'd do without you here," Aurora said and she kissed Marion on the cheek giving him a little bit of an electric shock.
"Whoa," Marion said and he touched his hair which was standing on end. He tried to pat it down but he got a little shock when he touched it.
"You better give it a minute," Aurora said as she typed in her ATM code. "Its not gonna go down for awhile,"
"Come on weather girl my mom's waiting for us to do the new Hair from Heaven photo shoot," Marion said.
"You're doing the photo shoot I'm just going along for laughs," Aurora said, "It's a shame DX won't be there this time,"
"To me that's a relief, I don't need your father's affectionate admiration distracting me again, photo shoots are hard enough," Marion said and Aurora rolled her eyes.
"Yeah they're real hard, hard like a jelly donut," she replied sarcastically.
"Photo shoots are a work of art Aurora," Marion argued.
"No four tier wedding cakes are a work of art, modeling is just easy money," Aurora said and Marion dismissed her comments and resumed trying to flatten his electrified hair.
"Speaking of easy money haven't you drawn out that cash yet?" Marion asked Aurora.
"Oh my goodness, someone's stolen all my money!" Aurora said and Marion came over to her and looked at the message on the ATM screen, it said 'Cash cannot be withdrawn due to insufficient funds,' and the amount of money in Aurora's account was showing as zero.
"Let's go inside and ask one of the bank tellers what happened to all your money," Marion said.
"No I got a better idea," she said pulling out her cell-phone and she called RJ Orton who was in New York City waiting for her and Marion to arrive for the photo shoot. "Let's ask the junior prophet,"
Manhattan, NYC, NY
Rebecca Michelle sat outside a brownstone in Lower Manhattan with Maria Kanellis, Romeo Hennigan and Batista. They had just been informed by DX that the Hair from Heaven photo shoot had been cancelled and that for some reason DX were going to ask Judge T Hartmann to grant them permission to re-enter the United States. RJ knew the reason for this sudden need for DX to come back home but he was on the phone with Aurora and hadn't told any of those around him what the issue was.
"Kevin Nash was run over in San Antonio today and Tristen Nash is holding the WWE responsible for what happened, he thinks DX set up the hit and run," RJ told Aurora. "So now Shawn and Hunter want to visit Kevin Nash at the hospital. They're waiting for Judge Hartmann to get back to them to find out if DX can come home,"
"Dad would have to be really pissed at Uncle Nash to do something like that and Uncle Shawn certainly wouldn't agree to something so barbaric, so who was behind the hit and run?" Aurora asked RJ.
"If I tell you over the phone you're only going to have more questions so why don't you and Marion go to the Sandbox, that's where everyone's gonna be and I'll explain it all to you together," RJ said.
Aurora didn't like the sound of that, "RJ just tell me if DX were behind the hit and run," she asked.
"No they weren't," RJ replied and Aurora sighed in relief.
"Okay now tell me if what happened to Uncle Nash has anything to do with my money mysteriously disappearing from my account," Aurora asked.
"Yeah it does but I'll explain it all at the Sandbox," RJ said.
"Okay we'll see you there, thanks RJ you're the man," Aurora said and she hung up and RJ turned to Remi, Romeo and the others who were waiting for him to get off of the phone and tell them what on Earth was going on.
"What happened RJ why does daddy suddenly wanna come home?" Remi asked him.
"Kevin Nash was run over and DX are being accused of setting the whole thing up by Tristen Nash and the Kliq," RJ said and everyone gasped in horror.
"DX would never do that," Maria said appalled.
"But I know who would, I know who was responsible for Kevin Nash being run over and that person is also the reason Aurora had all of her money stolen out of her account. I'll explain it all at the Sandbox, let's get going the ARK Angels of DX want us to be there when Shawn and Hunter come home," RJ said and Rebecca Michelle's face lit up.
"Daddy's coming home today? That's awesome! Although the reason for him coming home sucks," she said delighted and RJ nodded as they all got into his dad's Hummer and headed for the airport.
"Wait where are the A Twins?" Romeo said and everyone looked around for Angela and Angelo Jericho but they were nowhere to be found.
"The A Twins are in a lot of trouble," RJ replied as he drove to JFK with more information on the events of the day than an average person could handle. The Gift God had given him made him able to hold on and be strong and make sure that his friends were aware of how much their everyday lives were about to change.
Los Angeles county jail, Los Angeles, CA
Chyna laid on the uncomfortable bench of her jail cell feeling like it wouldn't be long before DX came up with some plan to get her out of jail. Hunter knew she would never do anything to hurt him, in his gut he had to know that and she was counting on his understanding to get her out of Los Angeles. Then of course there was still the issue of her daughter, LC was the reason she was in jail right now but she respected the Gift God had given her and LC would not tolerate infidelity in her family regardless of the reasons for it. LC didn't know that she was working against the Kliq and not with them; she like Amy was fed up with the bylaws and the regulations that came with being a Kliq wife and the only way she could and that was by pretending she was actually against DX instead of for them. If she told LC what her plan was Hunter would be suspicious of her because the only thing LC could not do was lie to her father. Deception was a Kliq wife skill and it was one that both Stephanie and Tamara had learned over the years, of course Rebecca didn't know anything about that, out of all the Kliq wives she was definitely the most virtuous. And then there was Amy who seemed to fit into the Kliq mould so perfectly until she finally realized like all eventually did that the Kliq was not all good, in fact the Kliq could be downright awful. It was time for a change and one way or another Chyna was going to make sure that the Kliq was over once and for all.
The guard came up to Joanie's cell and handed her a note through the bars.
"You've been released," he said as Joanie read the note and the guard opened up the cell door. The note was from LC, she knew the Truth about what Joanie had been doing with the Kliq and she wanted her to come to the Sandbox right away.
"Yes!" Joanie said jumping up in the air and she kissed the guard before fleeing the jail and heading to the airport to catch a flight to Connecticut and give her daughter a great big hug.
The Sandbox
Judge T Hartmann had granted DX permission to go and see Kevin Nash, while they flew to San Antonio, TX their family, friends and WWE roster had gathered in their living room at home in the Sandbox and were waiting for young RJ Orton to shed some light on what happened to Kevin Nash. LC and Cameron greeted Cheyenne as she arrived with Stephanie, the Undertaker and a furious Kelly Kelly.
Cameron hugged his sister," Are you okay?" he asked her and she nodded.
"I'm okay but I saw the hit and run, it was awful and that's coming from a girl who Power bombed Tristen Nash onto a television set," Cheyenne said.
Dolph Ziggler and Kofi Kingston watched as Kelly Kelly threw a tantrum, apparently she didn't want to be in Connecticut with her fellow WWE colleagues and she wanted to go back to Texas. Stephanie was not going to let that happen and she spoke to Kelly as if she were one of her own children throwing a tantrum.
"Kelly I told you Tristen has no legal right to use you on his program tonight because you are still under WWE contract, now stop all this noise and sit down with the rest of the locker room," Stephanie said.
"Thanks to you and DX there's not going to be a program tonight, you're all behind the hit and run, you sabotaged BTW to take them out before they took you out," Kelly Kelly said and Stephanie sighed in frustration while the WWE roster leaned in listening more closely, they didn't realize Kelly Kelly wanted to quit the WWE.
"Kelly I had absolutely nothing to do with what happened to Kevin Nash, the last thing I wanted was for anyone to get hurt, this was always about business to me, if anyone's making things personal it's you," Stephanie said pointing her finger at Kelly Kelly.
"Me?" Kelly Kelly said offended.
"Yes you, the only reason you joined up with Tristen and Garrett was to get back at Hunter for dumping you over the phone," Stephanie said and the WWE locker room gasped.
"You were with Triple H?" Eve said in disgust.
"He wanted to enhance our working relationship, how could I say no?" Kelly Kelly replied.
"How about because he's married," Alicia Fox said indignantly.
"In theory yes but in reality he kicked Joanie to the curb," Kelly Kelly replied.
"Technically Joanie kicked Hunter to the curb but before rumors start to fly let me just clarify that Hunter and Kelly weren't really dating despite what Kelly Kelly thinks. Hunter was just messing with her, he is still in love with Joanie and is not planning to leave her anytime soon," Stephanie said and LC smiled knowing that was the truth.
"So this so-called relationship with our boss was all in your head," Kofi said to Kelly who scowled at the multi-time Champion.
"Stay out of this Kofi, Hunter and I shared a moment. We could have had something really special," Kelly Kelly said and Stephanie laughed.
"And now you're trying to take down his company by working with one of our newest competitors, sounds like what you had with Hunter wasn't that special at all," Stephanie said.
"Hold up what company are you working with?" Dolph Ziggler asked Kelly Kelly.
"I'm trying to work for Best in the World down in Texas but Grandma over here won't let me," Kelly Kelly said nodding towards Stephanie.
"I'm not interested in losing talent to that no-good creep Tristen Nash and his black-hearted sidekick Garrett Calloway. Your place is here in the WWE," Stephanie said to Kelly Kelly.
"That's right if it wasn't for the WWE you wouldn't even have a career, working for Tristen Nash would be a mistake Kelly, you're place is here with us not down south with Tristen," Kofi said.
"No my place is wherever I want it to be and I don't want to work for a company where the co-owner plays a DX prank on me," Kelly Kelly said and Eve and Alicia laughed.
"Oh my goodness Kelly get a sense of humor! DX have ribbed me so many times I've lost count," Eve said and she turned to Stephanie. "Remember that time Hunter put vanilla milkshake in my sun-tan lotion bottle, I was so sticky I couldn't get the sand off and then the bees came and attacked me and I just kept on putting on more lotion because I didn't realize what Hunter had done,"
"I remember thinking why is Hunter ordering a vanilla milkshake?" Stephanie said chuckling.
"It doesn't mean they don't like you or want to hurt you, if anything it means they do like you otherwise why would they bother putting the effort into ribbing you?" Eve explained to Kelly.
"Unless you thought that you were such hot stuff that Hunter had to want you more than his own wife and if you did think that Kelly you got problems," Alicia added.
"No you got problems Fox," Kelly Kelly responded and she pushed Alicia back onto Eve, Kofi and Dolph and she headed towards the door only to open it and see Chyna standing there. "Hey Joanie, welcome home! I was just leaving," Kelly said nervously.
"Already? But I just got here," Joanie said and she backed Kelly into the house, "Hey kids I'm home!" she said to LC and Cameron.
"Joanie you're out of jail, we gotta talk a lot's happened since you were locked up," Stephanie said.
"Where are you taking Kelly Kelly?" LC asked her mom as the former Women's Champion led Kelly Kelly up the steps towards Cheyenne's old bedroom. Inside she found Cheyenne's toy chest and pulled out a plastic tiara.
"What are you doing?" Kelly Kelly said as Joanie placed the tiara on her head.
"I just got released from jail and this is my homecoming and it wouldn't be much of a homecoming without a homecoming queen," Chyna said and Kelly Kelly looked at her puzzled. "You should be honored Kelly, the last woman I complimented became a multiple Women's Champion,"
"Why are you complimenting me?" Kelly Kelly said and Joanie led her back down stairs and paraded Kelly around in front of everyone.
"Ladies and gentlemen I present to you the next in a long line of women that have been screwed over by the Kliq," she said and everyone applauded Kelly Kelly while laughing at the plastic tiara on her head. "Hunter broke your heart with a cruel DX prank, you should be happy you're in rarified air now so be glad you're not alone,"
"So are you mad at me or not?" Kelly Kelly said taking the tiara off her head but Joanie pulled it down so that Kelly couldn't take it off.
"Leave the tiara where I put it Kelly," Chyna said and Kelly Kelly gulped. "I have a proposition for you; stay with the WWE and let Stephanie mould you into the kind of woman that belongs on the arm of Kliq member, or leave and get Pile-drived into this hard wood floor. What's it gonna be?"
"Stephanie help me she's crazy!" Kelly Kelly said running over to the interim CEO of the WWE. Stephanie smiled as Kelly Kelly turned away from the intimidating Chyna, "Stephanie please give me another chance to be the greatest Diva the wrestling world has ever seen," Kelly Kelly said.
"You got it Your Majesty," Stephanie said. "Although I have to say I like the idea of you two in a match,"
Kelly Kelly balked in shock, "What? You can't put me in the ring with her!" Kelly cried in fear.
"You wanna be a top Diva you'll have to beat one, I'm booking the match for Summerslam so that gives you six months to prepare while I prepare the build up with the creative writing team," Stephanie said.
"Fine I'll do it," Kelly Kelly said and she ripped the plastic tiara off her head and threw it at Joanie, "I'm gonna beat you and when I do you're gonna be sorry you didn't take me more seriously,"
"Boo!" Joanie said and Kelly Kelly screamed.
"Arghh!" she cried out jumping on Stephanie's back in fright.
"Quit scaring her Joanie she just saw a man get run over," Stephanie said and Chyna frowned.
"Who got run over?" she said confused.
"Kevin Nash got run over," LC said. "That' why we're all here,"
Joanie couldn't believe it, "Someone tried to take out Big Sexy?" she said in shock and Stephanie nodded.
"What we're hoping to find out is who did it and why they did it so we can clear DX, Tristen Nash is accusing Shawn and Hunter of attempted murder. He thinks DX setup the hit and run," Stephanie explained.
Joanie raked her hair back in agitation, "This is such a mess. I had a plan to take down the Kliq and now this has completely messed everything up. I gotta see Kevin, what hospital is he at?" she asked.
"He's in San Antonio, DX are on their way there to see him," LC said.
"What!" Chyna cried. "We can't let them go down there alone, especially if Tristen thinks they're behind the hit and run, that's like going into battle without any armor!"
"And I suppose you can protect them from the big bad wolfpac?" Dolph Ziggler said sarcastically and Chyna scowled at them.
"I did a pretty good job of protecting Shawn and Hunter back in the day, a better job than Vicky Guerrero did protecting you," Chyna said and Vicky Guerrero didn't like the sound of that.
"Excuse me?" she said offended but Stephanie hushed her.
"Please Vicky now is not the time, Joanie you've got nothing to worry about. Judge T. Hartmann has provided an escort to take Shawn and Hunter to the hospital, they have all the protection they need okay?" Stephanie said and Joanie sighed in relief.
"Okay I'll settle for that. LC did you call your father and tell him that I'm here?" Chyna asked her daughter who nodded.
"Yeah mom I told him and he told me to tell you to 'SUCK IT'," LC replied. "Then I explained what you were trying to do down in Florida and he said he loves you and he'll see you later,"
Chyna smiled while the last of the guests arrived. The ARK Angels of DX welcomed Aurora and Marion into the Sandbox and given Aurora's chilly exterior RJ decided that now was the right time for everyone to know who was behind the hit and run and Aurora's bank account being cleared out.
"Aurora you're freezing," Stephanie said hugging her daughter, she knew Aurora only got cold when she was distressed and there was enough stress going around for her to start a blizzard in Connecticut right now.
"Marion you can let go of me now," Aurora said to Cena's firstborn son.
"I can't my jacket's stuck to your arm," Marion said and he pulled himself out of the jacket to get free but the jacket was still stuck to Aurora.
"Sweetie you need to warm up I don't want you having a temperature tantrum in this beautiful place," Stephanie said knowing what happened when her daughter got upset. The front door opened again and Aurora turned to see Jeff Hardy with a very special guest.
"I brought somebody who might be able to warm you up Ro-Ro," Jeff said and he had brought Steve Borden II with him. Aurora's face lit up and Marion's jacket dropped off her now much warmer body as she ran over to Steve and gave him a big hug followed by a big kiss.
"Steven I'm so glad you're here, I got a feeling things are about to get crazy in my family again, seeing you makes me feel a lot better," Aurora said.
"That's why I brought him," Jeff said and Aurora hugged him too.
"Okay guys we're all here now let's find out what's going on with the Kliq," LC said and Stephanie looked around for the rest of her children.
"Jeff where's Beth and the A Twins?" she asked her husband.
"Beth is in Florida with the Copelands," Jeff replied.
"And where are Angelo and Angela?" Stephanie asked and Aurora's face tightened at the mention of her twin brother and sister.
"They're with Garrett Calloway," Jeff answered.
"Which means they're up to no good," Stephanie realized and it was clear from Aurora's demeanor that she knew what RJ was about to tell everyone; business was about to get personal.
