"Good luck." Gracie said standing in the Gorilla in Seth's arms.
"Thanks." Rhea said bumping her fist.
"Have fun." She said and Xia bumped her fist next fallowed by Alexa, Nikki and Bianca.
"Be good for daddy." Becky said.
"Always." Gracie said as Becky and Charlotte went out.
The other team was already in the ring sprouting off and Becky rolled her eyes matching Charlotte.
"Okay ladies let's show these girls why we're better then them." Becky said and they walked to the ring making the other girls scatter.
After getting everyone in order Becky and Charlotte stood in their corner watching the fight. So far everyone was playing fairly and Rhea managed to eliminate Sonya and Mandy who were forced to the back.
Xia tagged in taking in Ruby. When Sarah snuck in they managed to elminate her but Bianca was quick in the payback eliminating Ruby and Alexa and Nikki took out Sarah with some creative offense. All that was left on their side was Tamina and Rhea went back in. It was a hard fought one but Rhea managed to eliminate her wig help from her side and it left Sasha fuming.
"And this is how it ends, with out team standing as the victors while you team limps to the back." Becky said.
"We'll see you two tomorrow on Smackdown and we'll remind you why we are the Champions and you two are the losers." Charlotte said.
Her music hit and the crowd cheered as they celebrated in the ring.
"I am so sorry." Xia said.
"They cheated." Gracie said from Charlotte's hip. "It's wasn't a clean elimination like Stephanie said.
"She's right." Charlotte said. "You did a good job out there, they cheated because they knew they couldn't beat us."
"I made them pay for that." Bianca said.
"We all did." Alexa said.
"Don't worry on it, Sunday is where it's going to count and you are going to show them the kick ass dragon you are." Becky said.
"Down please." Gracie said and Charlotte sat her down.
She walked over and hugged Xia making her smile.
"Come on, let's go raid the grape station." Gracie said. "I'm starving."
"Me too." Xia said.
"Have fun, I'll be in catering in a minute." Becky said and Xia left with Gracie.
"Becky, this is Bruno Mars, he's the PI Hunter has." Seth said.
"Hello." Becky said shaking his hand.
"First I am a huge fan so I am happy I can be here to help, second I am digging into these people and so far from what I can tell Arnold Sullivan is a man who likes to control everything and everyone. He's also hired some PI's to look into you two and so I have brought in my security team since we're dealing with a young child." Bruno said. "This is Frank, he will be with you at all times except when you are in your hotel room or at home."
"Frank Colt." A man said.
"I would like you to introduce him to Gracie so she doesn't worry why he's there." Bruno said.
"I have two girls of my own and I have worked me countless others and I have found letting them know I am a body guard there just to keep an extra eye on them helps calm them." Frank said.
"With kids I take no chances, right now they do not seem a threat, but to be precautious he will coordinate a team to just make sure it stays that way." Bruno said.

"It's cool, we travel quite a bit." Seth said.
"We are aware and we will fallow in a car with a second car when need be." Frank said. "I understand you are meeting them tomorrow."
"Yes, at a diner." Becky said.
"I will have a team inside and I will be in the booth right behind you." Frank said.
"Okay." Becky said.
"Mommy, mommy?" Gracie called as Charlotte and Andrade came around the corner with her.
"Hi my sweet luv." Becky said picking her up.
"Baby this is Frank, he's going to be our body guard for awhile." Seth said.
"Like security?" Gracie asked.
"Yep, my job is to keep an extra eye or two on you." Frank said.
"It's a good thing you have two then." Gracie said.
"It is." Frank said.
"I will leave you all to settle in and I will let you know when I know more." Bruno said.
Seth shook his hand and he left.
"Thanks for watching her." Becky said.
"Anytime." Charlotte said.
"I helped Aunty Charlotte pick out the colors for her TLC outfit." Gracie said.
"She did, she's a very creative little girl." Charlotte said.
"And smart." Andrade said.
"She is." Seth agreed. "How about we go get some lunch I am starving."
"Me too." Gracie said.
"We'll see you later to get ready for tonight." Charlotte said.
Becky nodded and they walked to catering and got some food and walked back to their dressing room.
"Daddy, why is Frank here?" Gracie asked.
"He is here to just watch out for us." Seth said. "I want to make sure you and mommy are safe."
"Is it because of mama's parents?" Gracie asked.
"No my sweet girl, I am going to meet them tomorrow and let them know you aren't ready to meet them." Becky said.
"Okay." Gracie said.
"Do you know how much fun we're going to have this week?" Seth asked.
"Day with the Deadboys?" Gracie asked.
"Yes, Uncle Josh will be here tomorrow, but there are lots of fun things to do here in Chicago." Seth said.
"Like what?" Gracie asked.
"We are going to explore the Winter Wonderland at Navy Peir, they have all kinds of fun things to do, rides, games, activities, lots of decorated trees to see and even ice skating." Becky said.
"I no know how to skate." Gracie said.
"Do you wanna learn?" Seth asked.
"Yes." Gracie said.
"Well then you can take a lesson." Becky said.
"What else?" Gracie asked.
"ZooLights at Lincoln Park and we'll go see the big tree at Millennium Park and have cocoa and candy candies and even seen Santa." Becky said.
"Wow." Gracie said.
"It's going to be fun." Seth said. "And we have to find you an elf outfit."
"Knock, knock." Lexi said.
"Hey come on in." Becky said.
"So, yesterday when you told us what you were doing to raise money I thought that was amazing so I know some people and they loved it too, so what they want to do if make sure each kid at the hospital either as a patient or a family member visiting them gets a brand new holiday bear." Lexi said showing them the bear. "This one is yours."
"Wow." Gracie said. "Tank you."
"You are most welcome." Lexi said.
"Sorry I am late." Nikki said coming in with a garment bag. "I forgot this in the car."

"What is it?" Gracie asked.
"It's the second part of our surprise." Lexi said.
Nikki opening the bag and pulled out the elf costume.
"Wow." Gracie said seeing the green and red dress.
"Do you like it?" Nikki asked.
"I love it." Gracie said. "Can I try it on?"
"We also got these legging to go with it." Lexi said pulling the red and white stripes leggings out of her bag. "And this cool jacket to wear over it."
"Girls these are amazing." Becky said. "Come on let's go put these on."
She took Gracie into the bathroom and changed her.
"Oh my." Seth said seeing her come out with her hair up in pig tails and her outfit on.
"Do I look like an elf?" Gracie asked.
"Very much." Seth said. "Do you like it?"
"Yes, thank you." She said rushing over and hugging Lexi and Nikki.
"You are welcome." Both said.
"I also got you this." Nikki said handing Becky a package.
"Elf ears." Becky said smiling,
"You can glue them on and they come off with some soap and water." Nikki said.
"This is awesome." Becky said. "Thank you."
She took Gracie to change back.
"Finish eating now." Becky said to Gracie and she went back to eating.
"This is amazing." Becky said.
"We were walking down town and I saw it in a window and just knew I had to get it for her." Nikki said.
"It's one thing off our list." Becky said. "And the Bear thing is amazing as well."
"I just need a number for the bears, where to send them and to who." Lexi said.
"I will call Addison and ask her." Becky said.
"Addison?" Gracie said.
"Yes, she took over helping me organize the gift giving after Katie had her baby early." Becky said.
"Wow." Gracie said. "I miss her."
"I know, we'll see her soon." Becky said.
Becky called her and relayed Lexi gift and she said she'd get her a number tomorrow and information on where to send things.
"Just let me know and we'll hook the kids up." Lexi said.
"Will do." Becky said and they headed out and Becky sat down with Seth.
"Our daughter is a very loved little girl and she is spreading that love." Seth said.
"A light this world needs." Becky said smiling down at Gracie who had pasta sauce in her face. "I need to go meet up with Charlotte and go over a plan for tonight."
"Okay." Seth said. "I will clean this one up and she can nap with her new bear."
"Sweet nap dreams." Becky said.
"Thank you mommy." Gracie said.
"Seth is putting Gracie down for a nap and I am going into a meeting with Charlotte." Becky told Frank.
"We're secure here in the building, the WWE security has been altered to the situation as well." Frank said.
"Okay." Becky said.
"Gracie asked us if you had anything to do with McKenna's parents and we told her no. I am not sure why they effect her so." Becky said. "But we don't want to worry her."
"I understand and sometimes kids feel things differently then we do." Frank said. "She might not understand why she feels how she does, she just knows she feels it."
"I think that is it." Becky said. "So for now we're just going to let it go and reassure her things are okay."
"Okay." Frank said.
Becky walked down to the women's locker room and found the girls looking over things.
"Hey." Becky said.
"Hey, how are things?" Charlotte asked.
"Good, Gracie is napping" Becky said. "With her new bear."
"I am glad she likes it." Lexi said.
"So let's go over tonight." Becky said.
Everyone agreed and they came together and went over a plan of action.
"I am sure knowing Sasha she's going to play dirty so I want us to just be aware." Becky said.
"We got you two covered tonight and Sunday we'll show all why we are in top." Rhea said.
"I owe them a good kicking." Xia said.
"And you'll collect that debt." Becky said.
"It's crazy to think this is all over Sunday." Bianca said. "I kinda like the traveling."
"Well there is a draft coming you could end up on the same brand as your man." Charlotte said.
"Killian likes being down at NXT but I like being in Raw." Nikki said.
"If you can make it work go for it." Becky said.
"Montez and I make it work." Bianca said. "It's about the effort you put in."
"It is." Nikki said. "All relationships need effort or they won't work."
"Very true." Charlotte said.
"Is it easier to date someone in the industry?" Xia asked.
"I really think it depends on each person." Charlotte said. "Speaking as a two time divorced women, what matters is the connection you have with the person. You need to be happy because only then will a relationship work."
"How did you and Seth get together after years of being friends?" Xia asked. "If you din't mind me asking."
"We've always had a connection but we've always been involved with others. Finally this February we were both single and we just let the connection grow and let it see where it would go." Becky said.
"As someone who has seen her in past relationships I have to say this relationship is so different." Charlotte said. "It feels forever."
"It is." Becky said. "He's everything I want and need in my life. He makes me so happy, more then I ever thought I could be. And now that we've added Gracie to the mix it's perfect."
"She is a very special girl." Xia said.
"She is." Becky said. "I need to go warm up and start getting ready, it's takes a while for this." She gestured to her face. "Ready to hit the ring."
"Go on." Bianca said as they all laughed.
Becky headed back to her dressing room.
"See, she's right here." Seth said.
"Mommy." Gracie cried.
"What's wrong?" Becky asked as she took Gracie into her arms.
"She had a bad dream." Seth said.
"I was just talking with the girls about the plan for tonight's match." Becky said sitting down. "Can you tell me about your dream?"
"I was lost." Gracie said. "I couldn't find you or daddy."
"My poor luv." Becky said. "That is never going to happen you know why?"
"Why?" Gracie asked.
"Because daddy and I will never leave you and we will always know who you are with and where you are." Becky said.
"Okay." Gracie said.
"Can I tell you a secret?" Becky asked.
"Yeah." Gracie said.
"You know that teddy bear charm you wear?" Becky asked.
"Yes." Gracie said. "Hidden inside is a secret chip that connects to my phone and lets daddy and I track you no matter where you are."
"Welly?" Gracie asked.
"Yep." Becky said. "It's to make sure when we are apart I can always look at my phone and find you."
"Okay." Gracie said putting her head on Becky's heart and listening to it.
"My sweet girl you are so very loved." Becky said.
There was a knock on the door so Seth pulled it open and took the shirt from the producer.
"What's that?" Becky asked.
"A surprise for Gracie." Seth said.
"Me?" Gracie asked looking over still snuggled into Becky.
"Yes, it's a new shirt they came out with for Survivor Series." Seth said holding it up.
"The Man and The Queen's Dream Team." Becky said.
"Wow." Gracie said.
"And." Seth said turning it over.
"Alexa Bliss, Nikki Cross, Xia Li, Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley." Becky said.
"Do you like it?" Seth asked.
"Yep." Gracie said smiling. "Can I wear it now?"
"Of course you can." Becky said helping her slip it on and then taking a picture of the front and back posting tagging the other girls who quickly liked alone with other stars.
"Are you feeling better?" Becky asked.
"Yeah." Gracie said.
"Good because it's time to hit the gym." Becky said and Gracie cheered.
When they walked in Gracie saw Cesaro working out.
"Hey buttercup." Tony said.
"Hi." Gracie said.
"Back at your old stomping grounds." Tony said.
"Gotta beat up Sasha and Bayley tonight." Becky said.
"They need it." Tony said. They got to work working out.
"Kettle bells are to heavy for me." Gracie said.
"They are." Tony said. "But I have something you can use."
"What's that?" Gracie said and Tony fished out the kids kettlebell.
"This." Tony said showing her.
"For me?" Gracie asked.
"Yes." Tony said. "Your very own kettlebell."
"Wow, thank you." Gracie said hugging him.
"Dude that's awesome." Seth said.
"I saw it while shopping and I've had it so when I saw you guys this Sunday, but since you are here she can put it to work." Tony said. "Come on I will show you how to do this."
Gracie listened and fallowed what he said and soon she was doing kettlebell swings.
"Good job, now do a small set to start, you don't want to hurt your arms." Tony said.
Gracie smiled and did ten before taking a break.
"Hard work huh." Becky said sitting down and drinking some water.
"Yep." Gracie said. "But fun too."
"That it is." Becky said.
After working out they all showered and Becky got ready for the night. Gracie proudly wore her shirt when each girl signed for her.
"She's our team's mascot." Lexi said.
"So what are your plans while you're in town?" Nikki asked.
"I am going to go ice skating." Gracie said.
"Wow." Nikki said.
"Navy Pair is doing the winter wonderland so we going to do that." Becky said. "And ZooLights and of course we'll even visit Santa."
"Wow, sounds like fun." Lexi said.
"And we have Day with the Deadboys Chicago on Saturday fallowed by NXT WarGames and then Survivor Series on Sunday." Gracie said.
"Yes and we have press galore to do to." Becky said. "Uncle Josh is making some plan for him and Gracie for those mornings."
"Yay." Gracie cheered.
"Are you doing Thanksgiving?" Lexi asked.
"Yes, Seth's family is coming to our place and we're doing to spend the day cooking and watching football." Becky said.
"The Bears are playing the Lions and they are going to win." Gracie said.
"That's my girl." Seth said. "You ready to go watch?"
"Yep." Gracie said. "Good luck mommy. Good luck Aunty Charlotte."
"Thank you." Becky said kissing her and setting her down.
"Thank you." Charlotte said hugging her.
Gracie walked over to Seth who picked her up and carried her out to watch the show.

Music was his escape, now it will be his weapon.(undergoing a rewrite because fuck this particular version)
8 128GOJO : A SORCERER IN THE SOUL SOCIETY
Short version: Gojo dies and gets bleached. Serious version: After an epic fight against Sukuna at full power. Gojo sacrifices himself to protect his students, Yuji and Megumi. What he didn't expect was that he would wake up in the afterlife. NB: This is set 55 years before the start of canon. For the fan of Bleach, 110 BC, 55 BC, and 20 BC are very important milestones. I choose 55 because it would help me make an interesting story. Disclaimer: Neither the cover nor bleach and Jujutsu belong to me.
