        "... and welcome to Monday Night Raw!" said someone over the speakers booming around Little Rock, Arkansas.

        The crowd cheered loudly as fireworks blasted front he stage in many colors of blue, red, white, purple, and green.

        I sat backstage, in a different outfit than I'm used to. Since today is the Valentine's Day, WWE has decided that a Diva's battle royal shall take place and the winner gets to be the Aphrodite of the Day and be the #1 Contender for the Diva's Championship. The only problem with that is that AJ Lee is the champion, and she's supposed to have befriended me.

        I sat next to Summer Rae, who was wearing a yellow miniskirt with red lining and a midriff showing part of her breast. We, including all of the other Divas, waited for our music to play to enter the ring.

        There were two other Divas in the corner that I didn't recognize, so I stood from the couch and walked to them. They each had a colorful Valentine's Day outfit and sparky crowns. When they saw me approaching, they paused their conversation and gave me a look of disgust, like a nerd walking up to a group of preps. As I walked closer to the group, I seemed to remember something about them, but their names were definitely at the tip of my tongue.

        "Um," I said quietly. I cleared my throat and tried again, "Hello! I'm Hannah, or, um, Beth..."

        "Yes, we know who you are," said one of the girls. She had dark skin and a curly afro. Her purple eye shadow matched that of her dress.

        "We know you from NXT," said the other snobbishly. "but I bet you don't remember us." This other girl had a paler complexion, but her light blue eye shadow also matched her gear.

        "Well, it's probably been a while, so, um, what are you names again?" I asked.

        "I'm Xania Wilbertson," said the darker skinned girl in the purple dress.

        "And I'm Angelina Pepper," said the other in the blue dress.

        Then, a lightbulb popped in my brain.

        "Oh! Xania and Angelina!" I realized, "Roxanne and Angel! Oh my gosh, you guys. I'm sorry I forgot." I would have pulled them in for a hug, but I rethought, remembering what they did to me in NXT. "But, wasn't there three of you?"

        "Who's this?" said an unidentified voice behind me. 

        I played a game with myself to figure out who it was.

        Let's see, I thought, the trio force of the Fates was Lahkesis, Clotho, and Atropos. Lahkesis was Xania, Clotho was Angelina, so that means the group leader and Atropos was...

        "Grace," I said as I turned around.

        "Oh, now you remember who we are," Xania said rudely.

        The girl I identified as Grace was wearing a green dress that was matching her eyeshadow as well. Her fiery red hair and pale skin, with her green dress, made me think of Ariel, so I smiled ever so slightly.

        "So, why are you all here?" I asked, watching Daniel Bryan and Kane walk past the group of Divas to start their match.

        "This is our debut match," Grace said snobbishly.

        "A battle royal?" I said confused. If their first match is a battle royal, you know they lose, I thought to myself.

        "Yes," Xania snapped back, "Why does that confuse you?"
