Too Far Apart

Chapter 8

For the rest of the day Blake and I hung out then he had to go home.

*The next day*
I woke up and decided to go to the gym. I got ready let my mom know where I was going and left. I stopped at Starbucks first then went to the gym.

After the gym I decided I wanted a change so I went to the hair salon. "Hey do you guys take walk ins?" I asked. "Yeah and we are very slow today so we can help you, what were you thinking about doing today?" The lady asked.

"I want to take like an inch and a half off, and I want to dye it red." I said. "Ooo ok, have you ever dyed it before?" She asked. "No I haven't, this will be my first time." I said. "Ok, fallow me." She said, and I did.

She combed out my hair then started trimming it. Once she did that she got the dye ready and started applying it to my snow blonde hair.

And when she was doing that I got a call from Tony. "Hello?" I answered. "Hey, I need you to fly out to London as soon as possible, Britt got injured and can't make the four way against Skye Blue, Riho, and Toni, we need you to take her spot, just do not tell anyone, it's going to be a surprise to everyone even the girls." He said. "Oh shit ok, yeah, I'm getting my hair done now, then as soon I am done I will go home, pack, and head to the airport." I said. "Thank you, I already bought your ticket, I will email it to you." He said.

"Ok, bye Tony, see you in London." I said then hung up. Today is Friday, so I have less than 2 days to get out to London for All In.

Once she was done she let the dye sit in my hair for like 30 minutes then she rinsed it out and did everything that she needed to do. When that was done I paid her and left.

Damn red hair is definitely different. I went home and showed my mom my hair "Ooo I like it." She said "Thank you, I'm going to London, I'm wrestling on all in, but Tony doesn't want anyone to know, so don't say anything to anyone." I said. "Ok, your secret is safe with me." She said.

Then I packed my clothes, a few pairs of gear then had my mom drive me to the airport. I went through security the boarded the plane.

The flight was like 12 hours, and when I got there Tony already had a driver waiting for me.

He drove me to my hotel, then I called Tony to let him know that I was in London.

It was already like 12 pm on Saturday so I had a day to rest before the show tomorrow. I went over all of the gear I packed and picked a white and red gear to match my hair. For the rest of the day I worked on my abs and my strength.

Then I went on social media and saw that people were thinking that I was Britts replacement so I replied to them and said "No, AEW and I are currently working out a deal for my future, I will not be at All in, I'm not even in London, I'm laying down at home resting." So that shut them up quickly.

Then Tony called me "Hello?" I answered. "You're lying to fans?" He laughed. "Yeah I am, it needs to be a surprise, and it will keep them on their feet." I said. "Yeah you are right, are you sure you're ready to wrestle tomorrow?" He asked "Yeah I'm positive, I need to get back in the ring." I said. "Alright, well get rest, you will need it. So far the ticket sales are good 90,226 people have bought tickets so far." He said. "Shit that's crazy, well I'm going to go to bed, I will see you tomorrow, what time should I get there?" I asked. "I need you there before anyone else so come at like 12 PM." He said. "Ok, will do, bye Tony." I said then hung up.

Soon after that I fell asleep, it was already like 10 pm at this point.

*The next day*
I got to Wembley stadium at like 11:45 and they snuck me in. Tony had me get dressed in a private room and I got my hair and makeup done in there. Tony said that my match is like the 4th on the main card.

I look so different. I laid on the couch till it was time. Tony had everyone make their entrance first then he had security sneak me to the gorilla, but of course Jay was right there. "Chloe?" He asked. "Yea?" I asked. "What did you do to your hair?" He asked. "I needed a change." I said. "So you're the replacement?" He asked. "Yeah, now if you will excuse me, I have a match I need to do." I said.

The crowd was silent and the lights went black, then they turned on when my music hit, a bunch of fireworks went off as I walked out.

The crowd went insane when they saw me. Toni, Riho, and Skyes jaws were on the floor. I waved at them as I walked down to the ring.

I stood on the top rope and looked at all 90 thousand people. I jumped down and took my jacket off and handed it to the time keeper.

"This match is set for one fall." Justin Roberts said. "And it is for the AEW Women's world championship. Introducing the challengers first. From Chicago Illinois, Skye Blue, the next challenger from Auckland New Zealand, Toni Storm. The final challenger, making her in ring return, from Seattle Washington, Chloe Campbell." He said.

"Now the champion, she is from Shinagawa City, Tokyo Japan, she is Riho." He said again. Riho handed her belt to the ref who then raised the belt in the air.

Once that bell Rio went after Skye blue.

"I haven't forgotten bitch." I said as I slammed her into the barricade. "Remember February 19th when I told the world what happened and you had the fucking nerve to bump into me knowing I couldn't lay a finger on you? Well now I can, and now I'm going to fuck you up." I said as I stomped on her. Then I grabbed a kendo stick since I couldn't get disqualified.

I beat her badly with it, the went in the ring and broke up the pin. I threw Riho out of the ring and continued to attack Toni.

"I'm back." I whispered and she smiled quickly. I got her to her knees so I gave her a running knee. This match was incredibly fun, Toni and I went back and forth, then Riho and I went back and forth, then Skye and I went back and forth. While Riho and Toni were fighting in the crowd I hit Skye with a knee, the my finisher and pinned her. The bell rang and my music played. I repeated asked the ref if I won and the answer was the same every time. I cried as I was handed the belt. I raised the belt high in the air and looked at Riho and Toni cry as they couldn't stop the pin.

I made my way to the back and raised the belt one more time, the crowd was chanting my name as I walked behind the curtain.

When I got to the back Nick was there. He picked me up and gave me a hug. "I'm so proud of you, I had no idea you were the replacement, and your hair, it looks so good." He said. I cried some more then I heard Toni.

"Oh my gosh. Clo, I'm so happy for you, you deserve this more than anyone, your hair looks amazing on you." She said. I gave her a hug and said "Thank you guys."

"I'm so tired." I fell on the floor and just laid there. "You okay?" Jay asked me. "Yeah, just tired." I smiled and hugged my belt.

"Chloe, you looked amazing out there." Tony Khan said. "Thank you Tony." I smiled.

This feels so surreal.
