Alright, I apologize for not updating last week, but I had final exams to worry about. So, here I am with an update! I know that I am about three pay-per-views behind in this story, but the story is turning out pretty well and the storylines that I have come up with. It is not going to be like what you have seen in the Divas Division, so it is going to be a treat! You can consider this as a little Christmas present for those that celebrate Christmas and if you don't, this is a present to you anyway. Thank you for being so patient with me and I promise that this story is not going to disappoint you!


Quitters

At times, you got to pick a direction and stick with it, even though, it is not the direction you want to go in...


Monday Night RAW

Three Weeks Until Hell in a Cell

Chicago, Illinois

Daphne Consuelos and Phil Brooks walked inside the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois for Monday Night RAW. Their reasoning for being here was that Hunter Levesque had requested that Daphne come to the arena, so that they would be able to talk about her WWE contract, which expired at Hell in a Cell. After a week of phone calls, Daphne had agreed to see Hunter, but she was not happy about being back at the arena because she did not want to show herself. This would make the WWE Universe assume that she would be making a grand return back to the WWE, even though she was not doing that. The same reason was for Phil, in which the WWE Universe would not stop chanting his name—like that would bring him back to the company.

Daphne and Phil approached Hunter, who stood there with his wife, Stephanie McMahon-Levesque, "Daphne, it is nice that you could come to discuss your contract," he smiled at her as he shook her hand, while he looked at Phil, "It's nice for you to be seen backstage, Punk. I hope the nonworking life has been treating you well."

Phil moved his hands side-to-side in so-so, "Eh, it's alright. It has its perks, but on the other hand, it gets boring sometimes; but, it's better than being in the WWE." he was blunt and did not care what Hunter or Stephanie had to say about him. Phil knew what the two of them thought about him and that they were not happy that he quit the company. Stephanie was the one most upset about Phil "going home" and even her fake smile wasn't showing her displeasure for him leaving the company.

"Well, Punk, if you ever change your mind. I think, we can arrange you somewhere in the company. Perhaps, we can bring you back at Survivor Series or even in the number thirty spot in the Royal Rumble match—just a few things for you to take under consideration, while you're at your home doing whatever you do." Stephanie smiled, trying to convince him for going back to the WWE. However, the way that Stephanie was convincing him was the same way that Hunter was trying to convince Daphne. By promising all of these great things, but the question that everyone wondered would be if he would get the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, which was held by Brock Lesnar.

Phil shook his head no, "I feel like my time in the WWE is done for. I just do not have the heart to go on and get the treatment that I have received from the company. I work my ass off, but was I the top guy in the company? No, that spot belonged to John Cena, the golden boy of the WWE. I respect John, but there needs to be someone new as the leader of the WWE."

"Look, this is no time for your personal shit with the WWE," Daphne told Phil, so he knew that he needed to shut his mouth, "So Hunter," she said as she turned her back on Phil, "Are we going to discuss my contract or what?" she asked, feeling a bit impatient, but she was curious to know what Hunter had in mind for her. Their conversation could go in both directions: Hunter would get the stick out of his ass, see things from her eyes and give her what she wants or she would walk away from the WWE for a second time in a row with Phil. Daphne had no clue why Phil even wanted her to come talk to Hunter, when he was under the same predicament as her?

"Alright, you want to talk, let's go Ms. Consuelos," Hunter walked forward as Daphne followed him from behind, trying to catch up to one of her bosses. Obviously, he knew what kind of woman Daphne was when he signed her. He had begged Vince McMahon and the Board of Directors to give her a chance and see her for her talents and for not what comes out of her mouth. There was a lot of controversy when the IWC found out that the WWE signed Annalise Romanoff to a contract. They thought that the WWE was not going to let her be her blunt self, when she made it to the main roster and that all of her move set was going to be watered down, but the minute she stepped into solid, WWE ground, Hunter had protected her and made sure that she was not a victim of what occurred with Paige, Emma and Summer Rae.

Hunter was not going to let Daphne Anne be a victim of all of that.

Hunter's office was a place Daphne thought she was never going to see again. The white walls with a few pictures of Triple H with DX, Evolution and other championship accomplishments. She found herself sitting in the white leather chairs that were in front of his brown and wooden desk, she thought that she would never look into the eyes of Hunter Levesque again. She thought that she would never look at him, being that corporate sellout that Daphne thought he was. A minute passed and not a single word was said between them. The only thing that was heard was the loud ticking of the clock as Daphne kept looking at it. Her time was running out and she wondered if she would let it run out?

"Look," Hunter began as Daphne looked at him, her legs crossed on top of one another, "I should have fought for you the night April returned to the company. I should have said something to management that would make your position in the WWE better than it was. I didn't because you need to realize something: I do not have the final say to anything. Vince has the final say. I could come up with the best script, but if Vince finds a flaw and he demands change. As long as Vince is still Chairman of the Board, your position in the WWE might not go higher than that. Right now, I am fighting for your ass to stay in the company, while Vince wants to release you because quitters like you and Punk, should not have a place in WWE history. The reason he hasn't is because of Total Divas. Are you going to do a fifth season or do you want someone to take your place because the last episode of season four was the highest rated episode in the past few seasons. Vince might want to keep you for ratings because they want to know what Daphne Anne does next." he explained to her as Daphne's eyes dropped down to the floor in thought. Should she do the season or not?

"That depends; I heard a rumor from Trinity a few days ago. She called me in tears because she thought that she was never going to have a chance to be Divas Champion? The question is: why would Trinity be calling me about never going to have a chance to become Divas Champion? The rumor I heard was that Total Divas are not allowed to become Divas Champion, now is that true or was she just making up shit to get me pissed off and angry?" she questioned Hunter, who remained quiet as she stood up and with her fist, banged on his desk as she got closer to his face, "IS IT TRUE HUNTER?" she yelled, almost on the verge of snapping.

"YES, IT'S TRUE, DAPHNE!" Hunter stood up and yelled at her face, "Vince, does not want Total Divas to hold the title because that would be a bad marketing move with E! See things from the viewer perspective. You want an episode of Total Divas and see that Nikki Bella is champion, but tune into RAW the next night and Nikki is not holding the belt, but Brie. Do you know how confused the viewers would get? This is why Total Divas cannot be champion because it will confuse people with the current storylines that are going on." he explained to her in a calmer manner, but his voice still sounded angry as Daphne rolled her eyes.

"There is a way to work with the rule. You can have a Total Diva champion until the season is over and the filming has not begun yet. You can declare a new champion at the times, when we are not being filmed and Total Divas is not on the air. There are ways to work with this rule, but you just need to think about it," Daphne explained, trying to reason with her boss, "But, if you don't want to, good luck with your division because I see no reason to be part of it," she said as she turned around to find Colby Lopez, her boyfriend opening the door, "Colby!" she ran and gave him a huge embrace, "I missed you so much!" she muffled under his ring gear as he embraced her with all of his life.

"Daphne," Colby released the hug as he took her hands and got a good look at her, "You look good. You look healthy and that you have been getting enough sleep. I'm glad that things are working out well from you, but I have been missing you like hell. Are you considering renewing your contract and getting back to the ring?" he asked her, assuming that this was the reason that Daphne was in Hunter's office.

Daphne looked back at Hunter, before looking back at her boyfriend, "Colby," she gave a small smile as she combed through his two-toned hair, "From how my conversation with Hunter went, I do not think that I am going back to work. I feel like I need more time to recover and for me to get my thoughts in order. I feel like Hunter and I see things quite differently, so until one of us gets the stick out of the ass, things are not going to get better anytime soon.

"Daphne," Colby began, "I know that you are difficult to compromise with, but you really need to see things from Hunter's perspective. He wishes that he can give you the whole world, but you have to get a little to gain a little. I know, it's not everything that you want, but he is willing to make a few promises for yourself to make sure that things are not only better for you, but the Divas Division. So, be the mature person that I know you are and please renew your WWE contract." he pleaded with her as Hunter was focused looking at the television as AJ Lee and Emma were facing Paige and Alicia Fox. AJ decided to walk out of the match because she was embarrassed of Emma and thought that she did not have any friends. So, Daphne watched the whole thing transpire as she smirked and ran out the door.

Daphne ran out of the curtain to the ramp, where AJ was stood and attacked her from behind as AJ fell face first, like she did at SummerSlam. The whole thing, once again was not scripted and she knew that she was going to be in some serious hot water with the WWE. Daphne grabbed AJ by her hair and threw her over the ramp and into the sides of the stage as she fell down a several feet. Daphne watched AJ, not moving as she was obviously hurt from the impact, but people wondered what kind of message she was sending and what she wanted. Daphne noticed the Divas Championship still on the ramp as she picked it up. The WWE Universe began to chant "YES! YES! YES!" as she raised the title up above her head in pride.

Daphne obviously wanted the Divas Championship.


Do you think that Daphne was way out of line for attacking April in a non-script way? Or do you see it as a way for Hunter, Vince and everyone to know that Daphne wants the Divas Championship? What about the thing about Total Divas not being allowed to compete for the title? Is there still resentment between Phil and the WWE? Just to tell you, I have been inspired by things like the Colt Cabana Podcast with Punk and I will use that in a future chapter and the thing with Total Divas not being allowed the title, I know that the rumor was bull, but I might use a little thing about it in this story. Thank you for all of the love and please favorite, follow and review! :)
