Hunting The Shield// Dean Ambrose

Hidden Away

The fans were left shocked. But it wasn't the fact that Ana was just attacked by the Wyatt Family. But the fact that the shield, her teammates were nowhere in sight. Not during the attack and not after. Ana was leaning against the barricade trying to relieve the pain in her body. Tear were rolling down her face, not just from pain but hurt. She had one major question. Where were the guys? Why didn't they help her? She felt betrayed, hung out to dry.

Maybe the guys did see her as the weakest link and this was their way of getting rid of her. The Bellas noticed Ana and rushed over to her.

"Ana? Sweety. We need to get you to the trainers."

When Ana didn't move or say anything the twins looked at each other. They needed to be careful with her shoulder so they gently pulled her up and helped her slowly walk up the ramp. They were barely half way when Randy ran out wrapping her good arm around his neck helping her to the trainers room.

The doc had them wait outside and they were all fuming. Nikki was probably the angriest out of them all.

"Where the hell were the guys?! Ana was just assaulted and they are nowhere to be seen?!"

John ran up to them out of breath. "How is she?"

"We don't know yet. Do you know where the guys are?"

"Haven't seen them."

About fifteen minutes went by when the door opened. Walking into the room the group was shocked by the sight. Almost all of Ana's midsection was bruised on one side. She had bruises on her shoulder and a few on her face.

"She ok tom?"

"Nothing is broken, nothing is torn and she doesn't have a concussion. By some miracle she walked out of that with bruises and maybe bruised ribs."

The doc left them alone but all Ana did was stare into space. She felt numb. Brie slowly walked over to her careful not to startle her.

"Sweety we need to go get you changed and to the hotel. You need rest."

The guys helped get her off the table. The girls thanked them as they led her to the shield locker room. Once they got there the door was shut and locked. This put Ana on alert since they only lock the door when Mox comes out but Roman and Seth aren't out here.

Unlocking the door Ana slowly started to open it. What she saw made her freeze on the spot. The locker room was a disaster. The guys were all laid out not moving. They didn't come to her rescue because of this. Tons of feelings rushed through Ana. She felt guilty, ashamed and stupid for thinking the guys abandoned her.

Ana went to Dean while the twins went to the other two. Pushing the hair out of his face she tried to assess the situation. He looked like he was beat to hell. Sighing a breath of relief Ana watched as he slowly started to wake up.

"Easy Dean. I'm here."

Groaning Dean slowly opened his eyes. Things were still a little fuzzy as he grabbed Ana by the arms flipping them so she was pinned beneath him.

"Dean. Its me. Its Ana."

When he didn't answer Ana knew exactly why. "Moxley. Please. Its me. Its ok."

"Ana?"

"Yeah Mox its me."

"Did i do this?"

"No you didn't. Someone attacked you guys and locked the door. Are you ok?"

Moxley took taken back. No one has ever asked him if he was ok. He wasn't quite sure if he was.

"I don't know."

"Thats ok. Just take some deep breaths ok? Can you do that for me?"

Moxley nodded and helped Ana up this helped him get a better view of her. But instead of getting mad he was worried.

"Are you Alright?"

"Yeah. Just bruised and sore. Can you tell me what happened?"

"We were sitting here watching your match then we got attacked from behind. Don't know who."

"Ok. Mox can you let Dean Come back?"

Mox shook his head and it confused Ana. "Can you tell me why?"

"He's hurting to much."

"Are you willing to go see the trainer? I'll go with you."

Agreeing Ana made sure the twins were gonna stay with the other two. Mox was a little nervous about seeing the trainer. He stiffened when Ana took his hand. He wasn't used to this type of affection.

Walking into the trainers room Tom smiled sadly. "Mr. Ambrose. Take a seat and lets see what's wrong with you."

Ana gave Mox an encouraging nod. Sighing he sat on the table and groaned. Ana watched as Tom checked his vitals and his main concern was his shoulder and arm.

"Alright Mr. Ambrose. It seems like you have bruised ribs. You and Miss. Calaway have a few weeks off. Go and relax."

Tom gave him some pain medicine and sent them on their way. Ana was worried about having Mox out. She didn't know if he would go into his old ways or how long he'd be out. Plus she didn't know what Dean is going through.

Getting back to the locker room the guys were up and packing. They just wanted to rest. Noticing Ana and Mox walk in they had to make sure they were ok.

"Are you Alright baby girl?"

"Yeah just some bruises. Dean has bruised ribs though."

"You should change before we head out Ana."

Changing felt like a great idea. Grabbing her bag she went into the bathroom and changed. While she did that she checked out all the bruises and sighed. She hated looking like this. She understood it comes with the job but when its this bad people who don't know who she is and what she does speculate.

"Ana?"

Ana jumped and spun around. That scared the shit out of her. "Jesus Mox. You can't do that."

"Are you Alright?"

"Yeah. Why wouldn't i be?"

"You were staring at yourself in the mirror. You do that a lot when you have a lot on your mind."

Sighing Ana lowered her head. "Just hate the bruises."

Stepping a little closer Mox was trying to be cautious since this is new to him. Ana needed him right now because Dean was hidden away.
