How Taking Down Legacy Failed

No not Randy, no. I was too scared to open my eyes. "We did it" I heard his gentle voice. My eyes felt so heavy, I opened them up slowly to see Randy holding me, starring down at me. "I got you baby, I got you" I looked around the room to see Sam on the ground, being held down by a policemen, Ted and Cody came into view.

"Baby?" Ted stopped when he saw me.

"Teddy?" I barely got out and the rest I saw black.

Three days later

"She's waking up! Cody!" I heard John's voice yell out. Only, it wasn't John's it was, Ted? My eyes shot open hearing his voice. I tried to get up. "Baby! No!" Ted's stern voice said pushing me back down. I looked around. This wasn't the same room I had been stuck in, there was no John, I was safe. I nodded my head trying to prevent the tears, but I was just so damn happy. I was safe, I was… Oh no Randy.

"Randy" I crocked. Only Ted was in the room, he was stroking my head.

"Shh baby, Randy is fine, he has just gone home to get some sleep, he hasn't left your side for the past three days, but it's my turn now to be on Mickie watch" Ted's jokes! Ted's wonderful jokes! I stretched my arms out.

"Cuddle!" I asked.

"Cuddle" Ted smiled and hugged me. I then saw Cody appear at the door.

"Hey you" I then stretched my arms out to him.

"Codykins" I never thought I would see his face again. I had to pinch myself, it didn't feel real, I felt any moment I would just wake up to find myself back in that room. "When can I go home?" I asked them, I was desperate to just be back at the hotel and just hang out with my boys!

"In the next few days I suppose" Ted pinched at my cheeks; I stuck my tongue out at him. I no longer felt dizzy or tired, but being near Ted and Cody brought my energy back.

"I want to go home Teddy" I pouted at him. "What happened to John and Sam?" Cody and Ted shared a look between themselves. Oh god, this does not sound good.

"Well, Sam got arrested" Cody told me. I smiled, but then I realised they hadn't mentioned John.

"What about John?" I asked them.

"Who wants soup? I want soup!" Ted said trying to change the subject.

"What happened to John?" I repeated, they both sighed.

"You see baby, when they found John, he denied everything" Ted told me, what does he mean, denied everything? A murderer isn't exactly going to admit to murder, they still have to arrest them right. "And the evidence doesn't support that he was there" Ted gulped.

"The evidence? I saw him, Sam saw him" I said as if stating the obvious.

"They searched the cabin and didn't find his finger prints" I shook my head they had to, they just had…

"Sam dusted right before it all kind of blew up" Ted and Cody shared another look. "What about Sam? She isn't going to take the blame for herself"

"Sam has told the police she kidnapped you alone and that John played no involvement" Cody said sitting by myself. I shook my head, why was she lying?

"I saw him!" I protested, I was nearly in tears again.

"They found drugs in your system baby and they don't think your in the right space on mine so they won't go on with your statement" I can't believe I was hearing this.

"I'm not crazy"

"Oh baby, don't cry" Ted hugged me and kissed my forehead. "We know you're not crazy"

"He drugged me" It only hit me what they said. No wonder I was feeling so weak that day and so dizzy. "What about me being at his place last?"

"He told the police that he told you it was over and you left crying and vowing for revenge" I would never go there pleading to get back with that bastard. How could the police believe anything he is saying?

"Please tell me I'm dreaming, what alibi does he have?" I asked them, how could John explain where he was! Bet the police didn't think of that!

"His girlfriend has claimed they were together all that week" Girlfriend? "Her name is Liz" They even had me doubting myself, but it's impossible, I know what I saw and it was John, I am not crazy.

"Phone call?"

"He said Sam had told him to pick some stuff up for her and she confirmed this"

"This just doesn't make sense" I cried. "So that is it? He is just going to get away with it?" Both Ted and Cody came in to hug me, I needed it.

"He has an answer to everything baby, I'm so sorry"

"He can't have, there is too much, I know too much…"

Three days later

I was allowed home! I was still a bit soar, but at least I was coming home! I have spoken to the police quite a few times, it was like they wanted me to slip up in my story, they thought that this was a perfect opportunity for me to get John into trouble, John is hasn't been arrested, he has been let free, after everything he isn't going to get punished. I may even have to see him tomorrow for Raw, Vince gave me the day off, but I just wanted to get back to normal.

Vince has some nerve himself, if this case continues he is hiring John the best lawyers to defend him as he doesn't want to loose his best superstar. I was going right to see him tomorrow. I wasn't going to give up, I'm also going to see Sam later on today and ask her why isn't she telling the truth, I've never been to visit anyone in prison and it will be weird looking into the eyes of someone who had tried to kill me.

As for Randy, I am laying in his arms as we speak. We didn't speak, we just stayed there, I didn't move from his arms and he pulled me close. I couldn't stop smelling him, I know that sounds weird, but I just missed his smell. I didn't want to leg go in case I lost him again. We hadn't spoken about anything like getting together, I wanted him to bring it up, but he hadn't which made me wonder if he wanted to be with me.

"I can't believe what he put you through" Randy mumbled into my hair.

"I can't believe he is going to get away with it"

"The important thing is, you're safe" He told me, I snuggled up closer to him. "Seemed like Sam saw right through me"

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, don't worry" He smiled.

"You can't do that"

"Oh yes I can, I'm the Ranster"

"Wasn't it the Ortonator?"

"Hush woman! You need to rest"

"I've just been in a hospital bed resting for three days, I do not need more rest"

"You will rest, I have to go" He sent me an apologetic smile.

"Where are you going?" I asked him. He kissed me, I had missed him so much, I just wanted to grab him and never let him go.

"To see my solicitor" He told me, I smiled at him, he was divorcing Sam! Eep! He stood up and gave me a smirk before he left. Ahh faint.

"So baby" Ted then replaced where he was, I cuddled up next to him instead. Five minutes later he got up and went to a cupboard, I watched him, he looked in the cupboard and then looked at me confused. "Hey baby, do you know where my cookies have gone?"

"Well, me and Randy kind of ate them" I told him innocently, he starred at me and started laughing.

"Good joke baby, now where are they?" He asked again, I gave him a guilty look to show I was serious, his face dropped.

It was my first day back and I received a half an hour lecture for taking his cookies.

"Here you go Micks" Cody said coming in handing me my blankie. He then looked at Ted. "She wanted me to wait till Randy was gone to give it to her" Ted's eyes hovered over my blankie, he then left the room for a moment, I sent Cody a look, he just shrugged.

Five minutes later Ted walked back in holding a blankie. "I thought I was the only one! Here's mine, his name is George!" Cody gave us a look of disgust, I smiled and looked at Ted.

"This is why we are friends!"

"Ted, post" Cody said throwing Ted his post, I looked up at Cody. "Nothing for you my dear"

"Dammit owned" Cody smirked, for some reason he liked it when I said that. "What did you get?" I asked Ted.

"My credit card bill, nosy baby" I looked over his shoulder to look, but he pushed me away, I then saw his eyes widened and he grabbed the phone.

"What? What?" I tried to climb over him to see, but once again he pushed me away. "I want to see!" He held the letter out of my reach. "Teddy" I whined. "I want to see the letter!"

"Hello? I have an unauthorized charge on my account" Ted said into the phone.

"Oh that's boring" I said stopping from climbing on him. "Put it on loud speaker" I told Ted.

"Which charge is it?" The company person asked Ted, he looked back at the letter.

"The one from The Golden Crown" He told the man. "That was a Sunday, I would never go there on a Sunday! Someone must have stolen my card. This is so insulting, to have this charge on there, I declare that you have to remove it immediately" I shook my head and laughed at Ted, maybe he should of let Cody do the talking.

I HAD FRICKEN MISSED THIS!

"Sir, the date on your account summary is the date the charge cleared your account. The actual date of the transaction at the establishment was two days before, on Friday" The man told Ted, the anger on Ted's face cleared and was replaced with realisation.

"Oh…then that was me" Cody threw something at the back of Ted's hair for his idiotic behaviour. "They should make that clear! I should phone them back and make a suggestion"

"Wow, you've changed" I said to him sadly, he looked at me confused and a little hurt. "Before you would of written a strongly worded letter" I grinned at him.

"You had me worried for a minute baby, don't ever do that again"

"I'm sorry Teddy" I kissed his cheek.

"So, you and Randy ay" Ted said to me wiggling his brows, I slapped his arms.

"Nothing Ted, there is nothing to say, I guess I had to high of hopes for us" I replied. I thought that as soon as we got home, we would talk about our relationship and where to go on from then, but nothing, he didn't mention it like I wanted him to.

"I'm sure he will talk about it soon" Ted said trying to encourage me, I just shook my head. I had a bad feeling nothing was going to happen.

Three hours later

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Randy asked me as we sat in the car, in the car park of the prison Sam was being kept in.

"Yeah" I replied. "I need to know why she isn't telling the police what really happened, I can't let John get away with this"

"Do you want me to come with you?" I can't believe I was sitting here with Randy, he had started the proceedings of his divorce, it was only a matter of time before he was a free man again!

"No, it's ok, I think I need to do this by myself" I told him, he nodded and kissed my cheek, I smiled at him and got out of the car. I took a deep breath, I know I needed to do this. As I walked n I couldn't help, but think this is where John belongs. He should be here. I had rang up earlier to say that I was coming to visit. I was surprised that they were letting me. I had to wait for ten minutes before I was finally let in to see her.

A lot of people were visiting. There were a lot of tables and chairs set out, a lot of guards on duty too. I saw Sam, she wore a big scowl. I walked over to her, her arms were crossed, she looked up at me. I took a seat.

"What do you want?" She snapped at me.

"I want to talk" I replied calmly. She leant back and waited for me to go on. "About John" She rolled her eyes as if she was expecting me to say that. "Why are you protecting him?" I asked.

"I'm surprised you haven't figured it out" She scoffed. I didn't say anything. "It's pretty obvious Mickie, he is the father of my baby"

"What does that have to do with…?" She cut me off.

"Ok, just shut up and listen. John is the father of my baby. I've spoken to my lawyers, there is so much evidence against me that even with the top lawyers, I won't get out of here, so I've faced it. The only reliable evidence against John could be me, but without me, he won't get put away because there isn't any evidence against him due to the fact I so happened to of cleaned before hand and his precious girlfriend is being his alibi" She rolled her eyes at that, I opened my mouth to say something, but she cut me off. "I'm not finished. So there is no chance for me, but there is for him. Without him, my baby is going to go to a foster family, I don't want my daughter to feel abandoned. I may be selfish Mickie, but there isn't a thing I wouldn't do for that little girl" I had to admire that in her. "So by letting John be free, he can raise my baby, at least she will know her father, I don't want to take that away from her and if that means I have to take the blame for myself, then so be it. Don't even try to persuade me to take back my statement because I won't" She said sternly, before getting up and making her way to one of the guards.

"At least I know this wasn't all in my head" I muttered. I had to respect Sam in a way that she was giving up so much so that her daughter will have a good life.

Ted's P.O.V

"So when are you going to tell her?" Cody asked me.

"About what?"

"Melina"

I scratched the back of my head. I didn't know the answer to that. I was scared to how she would take it. "I think I should wait awhile, at least till Mickie is better" I told him.

"The longer you drag it out dude the more she is going to be upset" Cody replied.

"I know, I know, but I can't, not yet, especially as I don't know where things will go with her" I had forgotten all about the matter of Melina. "You won't say anything, will you?"

"I'll leave it to you to tell her"

Mickie's P.O.V

Randy took me back to the hotel. "What happened?" Ted asked me as I walked through the door, Randy following close behind.

"She doesn't want her baby without a father, that is why she isn't giving up John, without her there is no case"

"Don't worry baby, this time, I swear to protect you"

I smiled at him and put my bag down. "Well I should get going" Randy said. Did he have to? I felt bad, last week he had a wife and kid to go home to, but now he had nothing. "I'll see you tomorrow night"

"What's tomorrow night?" I asked him confused.

"Oh, our date" He said winking at me, before leaving.

"OOOOO YOU'VE GONE RED" Ted pointed out, I punched him before swooning into my bed room where I squealed into my pillow. I had missed this feeling.

Randy survived!
How do you think Mickie will react to Ted & Melina?
