Chapter 3

People were still shocked by the time the
next Smackdown came round. Lita's reaction to her loss against Jazz on Raw sent shockwaves through the WWF. No-one had seen her behave in such a way before and they didn't particular want to see it
again.

Possibly the only person it hadn't shocked was Rob. He knew there had been something wrong and now he was beginning to wish he had stopped her from going out
there.

***Flasback***

One...

Two...

Three...

Silence engulfed Lita as the bell rang. Sure the crowd was loud enough but none of it was reaching her ears. All she knew
was she had lost. No wonder She hadn't been needed on TV. She was a failure!

The tears welled up again.

It was her fault the guys hadn't been on TV as well. They hadn't lost their title match at No Way Out because of their two month absence, they had lost because she was stood at ring side.

She was a failure!

The tears were no longer welled up in her
eyes, they were rolling down her cheeks taking her mascara with them. The crowd looked stunned as she sat in the ring shaking and crying. They could see her lips forming words but they were too quite for the ring mics to pick them up.

Despite the arena full of people Lita felt like the lonliest person in the world.

Rob sat with a group of other wrestlers, stage hands and technicians watching the events unfold in the ring. He could hear Matt and Jeff laughing behind him completely oblivious to the young woman slowly breaking down in the ring. If they
weren't going to help then it was down to
him.

Matt looked shocked as Rob rushed past him towards the ring. He was about to yell something towards the speeding blond until the monitor caught his eye.

To say he paid a moments notice to what was happening with Lita would have been an exaggeration. He turned his attention fully to Jeff as he took his brother's arm and dragged him to their locker room.
