How Taking Down Legacy Failed

Mickie's P.O.V

We were at the arena, another day, another raw. Randy was going through his bag with his wrestling attire in it when he looked up and started to laugh, I followed his gaze to see Hayden next to Amelia's dolls. "Oh o babe, looks like we got a problem, Hayden's chilling out with the ladies, we have a little ladies man on our hands" Randy said making me laugh.

Hayden looked up at us causing us to laugh even more. "Just like his dad" I said, looking over at Randy.

"Mm but now there is only one lady in my life" He draped his arms around me and pulled me to lie down with him on the couch. "I'm going to miss you so much" Tomorrow I was going to my parents' because it was my dad's birthday, but Randy couldn't come as he has a match at the paper view TLC. "I know I keep saying it, but I will"

"I will too" I cuddled up next to him. "We aren't very good at being apart, are we?" I chuckled.

"Nope" He brushed some of the hair out of my face. "I don't know what I'm going to do without you and Hayden"

"It's only for a few days" I told him, looking up and kissing the tip of chin.

"That's forever in our being apart time!" Randy said nuzzling into my neck.

"You'll be fine without me" I replied, running my fingers over his abs.

"No I won't" He sighed. "I should be going with you"

"We'll do a video call every night, Ah, I'm so nervous." I said to him about my upcoming match. My first once since Hayden's birth.

"Relax" Randy told me. "You're going to do great" He put his hands on my hips and leaned in to kiss me. "And did I ever tell you how hot you look in your ring attire?"

"No, but feel free to boost my ego" I mocked what he had said before.

"I'll be here when you get back" He gave me a last kiss and let me go. I left the locker room and made my way to the ring, I was going up against Natalya. I flicked my hair over my shoulder and put my hat on when Layla blocked my path.

"Wow, back so soon?" She taunted, oh great. Back to the ring means also back to the bitchness with the divas. "I can't believe your still here"

"And I can't believe your still talking" I retorted.

"Mickie, you should really take my advice and just leave, go be the perfect little housewife, things have changed since when you last wrestled" I rolled my eyes at her. First day back and I've already found a new enemy.

I noticed the cameras were on us, I wonder if Randy was watching this. "You know what, I have a match next, so why don't you beat it scary spice?"

I started to walk away, but Layla yelled at me. "Scary spice? Mickie if you call me scary spice-"

"What are you going to do Layla?" I cut her off and yelled back at her. "Huh? Are you going to run and get Michelle?" She didn't reply. "Yeah, that's what I thought" I made my exit.

"Just remember, we warned you" She called after me.

I stood nervously at the gorilla position and when my music hit, I ran down the ramp, slapping hands as I did so, Natalya was already in the ring waiting for me. "Making her way to the ring from Richmond Virginia, Mickie Orton!" It felt so weird to the announcer saying Orton. I starred across at Natalya before the ring bell hit, we locked up, but I gained the upper hand straight away and throughout the match, I was dominating, I was so fired up, this was my first match back and I was giving it all I had.

I was going after Natalya again when she slid out the ring. The ref was yelling at her to get back in the ring but she wouldn't, this was not how my first match back was going to end, I slid out the ring, but because I was doing so, Natalya was able to take the advantage, she shoved me down and I slammed into the steel stair. Ouch. I heard the crowd let out a 'OHHH'

Natalya lifted me up by my roots and threw me back into the ring, she went for the cover but I kicked out. She argued with the ref, I started to build my strength whilst she did so and when she finally turned around I hit her with the RKO, my new move.

The crowd went wild for that, I was about to pin when I heard something up the ramp. It was Michelle and Layla and they had…..my clothes, my ring attires, I starred at them with disbelief, they weren't going to…..were they?

In their other hands they had scissors. They stretched my clothes out and Michelle held up the scissors and she cut it right down the middle. I went to chase them out when Natalya got me from behind, I heard the ref counting 1,2 3 and the match was over. I just lost my first match back because of Michelle and Layla. I looked up as they walked right up to the ring and continued to cut some of my favourite clothes. I groaned in pain from the move Natalya just did to me. They waved my ripped clothes around as they walked back up the ring, this meant war.

I walked backstage, angry, humiliated and upset. I was going to make them regret that. I walked into the locker room to be greeted by Randy, he put his arms around my waist. "I'm sorry Mickie, I knew how much that match meant to you" I gave him a small shrug. "They aren't going to get away with it" He told me.

"I know" I replied, hugging him back. "I can't believe they did that"

"I'll pay to get them fixed or to get some new ones"

"You don't have to Randy, it wasn't you that ruined them"

"But I want to" He emphasised. "You're my wife and I want to take care of you"

"They ruined my match" I leaned into him.

"On the bright side, you really nailed that RKO" He kissed my forehead. "You know, I could easily sort Layla and Michelle out….."

"It's my battle Randy, I have to deal with it on my own"

"Your battle is my battle" He told me sternly.

"Then you should let me help with the Miz" I said putting my hands on my hips.

"Hey, I didn't say my battle is your battle" He tapped my nose. "I just don't like seeing you get hurt….or upset especially as I can make the problem go away so easily"

"I need to face some things on my own, you won't be there always to fight my battles for me Randy"

"Well why not? I'm not going anywhere" I smiled at him. "So I have to go for my match"

"I thought you said you weren't going anywhere" I teased.

"I'll come back" He put his finger under my chin and kissed me. "Good luck kiss not that I will need it, it was just an excuse to get you to kiss me"

"I'll walk you down, Cody can you look after Hayden?" I asked him, he nodded and continued to play with Hayden who was on his lap. "Cheers!"

"I thought we were going to play moms and dads!" Ted protested.

Randy looked at me weirdly. "Long story" I told him. "I'll play when I get back" Randy put his arm around my waist and we walked to the gorilla position. He was going up against Courtney Cox's ex husband, David Arquette, who bravely challenged Randy to a match!

"I love you"

"I love you too, now go kick some ass" I slapped his ass as he started walking away. He turned around looking very amused. "What?" I said innocently. "I believe that's your music that just hit"

"You wait babe" He shook his head and walked down.

I laughed and turned around, but hit something hard. "I'm sorry, I-" I looked up to see Alex Riley and The Miz starring down at me. "Alright fellas?"

"Grab her" Miz told Alex.

"Grab who?" My question was answered as Alex lifted. "A-Riley man! What are you doing?" He lifted my into the air, over his shoulder. "I don't like to be lifted! A-Riley, we can work this out, man to man, you know?" No response. "Can I at least no where I am being taken to?"

"Don't worry, you will be reunited with your husband soon" Alex laughed cruelly.

"That's not really reassuring A-riley" I slapped his back. "You see….I made some plans with Ted and I can't really let him down, so if you'd kindly let me down that would be really appreciated"

He actually did! "Thank you my man A-Riley" I patted his chest. "I knew I always liked you" I turned to bump into Miz's chest. It was then I realised where we were, we were in the boiler room. "Couldn't you guys be a little more original?" I said as I looked around. A-Riley grabbed my arms and tied me to a chair. "Oh this is so cliché, are you serious bro?"

"We're ready" Miz told Alex.

"Ready for what?" They stuck something over my mouth. "Mmm! Mmm!" I tried to speak.

Some crew members came and faced the camera onto Miz, there was a second monitor that showed Randy in the ring. I think I know where this is going, haven't I been through enough today? "Randy…Oh Randy" Miz spoke into the camera. Randy stared up angrily at the monitor. "I wouldn't do that if I was you" Miz said, Randy was about to put David through a table. "You see Randy, you need to learn that your actions, have consequences" I wasn't in the shot so Randy couldn't see he had me, I looked at Alex Riley who was standing next to me.

He took the tape of my mouth. "A-Riley, I need to go to the bathroom""Well just hold it in!"

"I can't A-Riley! I'm a woman! Women have needs."

"Tough!"

"Where are Sam and Dean when you need them?" I muttered to myself.

"Supernatural?"

I looked up at Alex Riley in amazement. "You watch it A-Riley?"

"I love it, best program around"

"I know right! I love how much chemistry the brothers have, it's like…." I was cut off by Alex putting the tape back around my mouth. The camera was then put on me and Randy's face just dropped and he immediately let go of David.

"I have someone of interest to you" Miz said to Randy, running his fingers through my hair. "You wouldn't want your….beautiful wife to get hurt, would you Randy? You wouldn't want that on your conscience"

Randy didn't hang around anymore, he ran as fast as he could from the ring to try and save me, that made me smile, but I'm pretty sure he had no idea where I was. "Now we wait" A-Riley took the tape off my mouth.

"So as were saying, who do you prefer Sam or Dean?"

"What is she going on about?" Miz asked A-Riley.

"I have no idea" He lied.

I was about to accuse him of lying when someone cut me off. "There you are, you bitch! You promised to play moms and dads with me!" Ted charged up to me angrily.

"Ted….how did you know where I was?" I asked him.

A-Riley and Miz looked just as confused as I did. "I have been looking everywhere for you! How dare you ditch me for A-Riley!"

"I didn't ditch you! Look at me Ted!" I said, gesturing to the fact that I was tied up to a chair.

"What's going on?" Ted asked. "This all looks very…kinky…..can I have in on this?"

"Untie me you idiot!"

"Well you didn't have to be rude"

I brushed myself down as I stood up. "Well fellas, it's been nice, but I have to go"

"I don't think so" Miz said. "You're staying here"

"I have my backup now, my partner in crime, my Sam!" Miz looked confused at the last part. "A-Riley gets it"

"Look, there is only two of you and one of you is a girl" Miz pointed out.

"Yeah and the other one's Ted" A-Riley joked.

"LOLOLOLOL that's a good one A-Riley! Funny man!"

"Ouch" Ted said. "That hurt my feelings A-Riley"

"It's been fun, but in all seriousness, we have to go" I told them.

"Like I said, there is only two of you and-"

"Make that three" Randy stepped out of the shadows with a dangerous look on his face, Miz opened his mouth to speak, but Randy didn't waste anytime, he tackled him down to the ground and threw punches at him. A-Riley tried to tear him off Miz, but Ted knocked A-Riley down. I watched this fight going on, I felt really left out, so I grabbed the chair I was tied down to and decided to use it to help Ted. I lifted it up and smacked A-Riley down with it.

"That's for denying our friendship!" I yelled, I got on top of him and started doing a submission move. "TAP OUT A RILEY! TAP OUT!"

"Err…baby…he's unconscious"

"Oh"

"Yeah…" Ted said awkwardly.

"Randy" I called out. I turned to see he was beating the holy hell out of Miz. "Randy" I ran to him and tried to pull him off Miz. "Let him go"

He shrugged my off him. "I'm going to make sure this sorry son of a bitch never touches you again"

"Randy please, let's just go, I want to go home, I want to see Hayden, I want to see my baby" He froze and turned to me, he looked back at Miz and sighed.

"I can continued the beating if you want" Ted piped up.

"Please?" I said to Randy.

He nodded and stood up; he pulled me into a rough hug. "Did he hurt you?" I shook my head. He pulled me into a long hard kiss. "Let's go back to the hotel" I nodded in agreement.

"I'm fine here!" Ted said as he continued to punch Miz. "That's for call me a girl!"
