Bloodline Divine 2-The Rise to Fall

Chapter 58

Hello SmackDown

2/2/24

We arrived to the arena in Brimingham and I was slightly on edge. This was different then doing RAW on Monday just because there I was a visitor but now, we were at SmackDown. My home, the place I'm supposed to be running as an individual and with my family The Bloodline so the pressure was on more. I was coming home to face the past where it all went wrong and to assure the past and the world that I was back and better than ever.

After dinner that evening Roman wanted to go over The Bloodline plans for SmackDown, I wasn't going to be involved with any Bloodline stuff this week I had my own agenda going on and Roman had Cody to deal with. So, while they gathered around the table I decided to take Sergeant outside to use the bathroom.

"Please don't go to far," Roman pleaded with me.

"I'm just taken Sergeant out, what trouble can I get into?" I asked, Jimmy snickered, and Solo and Roman both gave me a sour look. "Hey I never intentionally go looking for trouble most of the time it finds me then what do you expect me to do ignore it?" I asked and Roman continued to glare. "Fine if trouble comes, I'll just stand there and take it how's that?" I asked and Roman growled.

"Ummmm.... why don't I go with you," Naomi suggested quickly coming over from the lounge and grabbing my elbow. "I could use some fresh air and less ego," she said. I stared at Roman another second and decided it wasn't best to push my luck on the comments anymore and I followed Naomi out with Sergeant behind me. Naomi and I were silent until we got a fair distance from the bus to the nearest exit to the outside.

"I can't believe you challenged him like that, I've never seen anyone do that, girl you have some guts."

"Yeah, some guts," I sighed.

"What is it?" she asked. We reached the end of the entrance ramp and leaned against one of the barricades as we watched Sergeant sniff around a grassy area.

"I don't know, part of me wonders why I do stuff like that. I just think back before The Bloodline I'd never have said anything like that, hell a few weeks after joining The Bloodline no chance in hell would I have had the guts, let alone the nerve, to say something like that to Roman."

"I think your over thinking things. Jimmy told me about how you aren't used to certain things that you didn't have what a normal person would have gotten growing up. It was just playful banter between you and Roman that's what people do when they get comfortable with each other. And I didn't mean anything by my statement other then I don't see anyone act around Roman in the same way you do."

"I'm sure your right, but sometimes though I wonder if I understand what my limits are."

"I'm fairly sure Roman would tell you if you went too far with something."

"Yeah, I know your right, this is just me lost in my thoughts again. But you know what I'm supposed to be the bravest, gutsiest, chaotic person on the roaster but I assure you I'm also the most afraid person on the roaster. On the outside, in the ring, when that camera is on, I'm untouchable but then when I'm alone with my own mind I know that the thing that scares me the most is myself. Because even I'm not exactly sure what I'm capable of doing, how far I'm willing to go, the depth of the risks I'm willing to take. Joining The Bloodline has been both a blessing and a curse for me. A blessing because it set me free, it gave me Roman, and it a loud me to find happiness both personally and professionally. A curse because it set me free, it released the limits of myself that no one not even me knows what that could mean. I didn't fight for what I should have just because it was a safety net but that's all changed there's no net waiting there for me if I fall," I babbled on.
