I don't own any of the characters except Elizabeth. WWE owns everything, but I added in some of my own creations into the plot. I give 99.9% of the credit to WWE because without them, I wouldn't be writing this.
CH. 1
One doesn't know what they truly have until they don't have it anymore. Two people are understanding this concept, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns. 2 June, 2014, their world wasn't what they thought it was. Their youngest brother, Seth Rollins turned his back on the two of them. They never saw it coming. The hardest thing now was to explain this to Dean's four year old daughter, Elizabeth, about Uncle Seth.
"Daddy, Uncle Sef?" He knew she was watching, and it was hard for him to digest, let alone for his little girl to understand. Dean scooped her up and held her close as she cried into his shoulder. "Uncle Seth will always love you." Dean didn't know if it was true still or not, but he had to comfort his little angel. Still sniffling and tears falling from her eyes she said "Uncle Rowan okay daddy?" She didn't know why her Uncle Seth would hurt her daddy and Uncle Roman. "DADDY!" Dean turned around when his daughter called out to him. He pulled Elizabeth behind him when he saw Orton, Triple H and his so called "brother" Seth Rollins standing in front of him. "What do you want?" Dean said. He was worried what they would do with his daughter standing there. Surly Seth wouldn't allow anything to happen to his niece. "What do we have here? Surly this isn't a place for a child. We wouldn't want you to get hurt." Orton said to Dean and Elizabeth, looking between the two of them. Elizabeth again pulls back behind her dad because she was scared of the guys in front of her, including her Uncle Seth. Dean replied back to Orton "You hurt my daughter, that will be the last thing you do. No one hurts my daughter and walks away from it." When he said that, he wasn't just looking at Orton and Triple H, but he was also looking at Seth Rollins. Seth in reply only gave a smart ass smirk. Dean wasn't sure what happened to his brother, but he was gone now. Before Dean knew what was happening, he saw his daughter tugging on Triple H's jacket and the COO turned around along with Orton and they looked down at the little girl "What do you want?" Triple H asks the little four year old while Dean comes to stand by her and takes her hand. "Why wake Uncle Sef away from me, daddy and Uncle Rowan?" She looks up at both Authority members with a look that would make anyone's heartbreak, but the two just smirk and laugh at her, but Rollins stops and looks back at his niece with a hurtful expression on his face. He knows he made a huge mistake, but he has his reasons. She doesn't know that and neither does Dean and Roman. All she knows is that her Uncle Roman is hurt and upset, her daddy is upset and she doesn't have her Uncle Seth coming back with her and her family. With Dean not looking at Seth because he was too busy watching Triple H and Orton. Elizabeth is looking only at Seth. So he winks at her and waves after blowing a kiss and mouthing "I love you" to her. With that, the three men walk away.
Leaving the arena, Elizabeth had fallen asleep in the back car seat while Dean and Roman talked about what happened. The two were both angry, hurt and upset about the betrayal, but kept a hushed tone in order to not wake up the sleeping toddler. During the moment of silence, Dean's phone buzzed several times indicating that there was more than one text waiting for him. Five minutes later, Roman's phone mirrored Dean's just moments earlier. Once back at the hotel, they were suprised to read that they came from Seth. He said that he needed to talk to the both of them and asked if he could stop by tonight. Roman and Dean were hesitant but knew that he wouldn't do anything because of Elizabeth. They at least couldn't hate him in the fact that he still cared for her. Roman texted back that he could come over tonight to "explain" his reasonings behind his attack.
An hour later, there was a soft knock on the door, Seth knowing full well that his little niece was already sleeping. Dean left Seth in while Roman sat with ice packs littering his back. Seth just frowned at his brother's state of condition. "What do you want Seth?" Roman asked his brother. He wanted an explanation. The two Shield brothers glaring at the stray hound awaiting for a response. Seth just looked down and played with his hands, trying to think about where to begin his explanation. Roman knowing his youngest brother too well "why don't you start with why you did what you did." Dean sitting beside Roman was nodding his head in agreement with Roman. Seth lets out a heavy sigh and looks up at his brothers.
" I was walking backstage last night at Payback and I heard Evolution talking. They talked about hurting us (The Shield) in ways that would destroy us completely. That they would go after the one person the three of us would risk our lives for." With this, Dean's hands clenched into fists, wanting to hurt them just for even thinking of harming his daughter. Roman was getting furious. How dare they think about hurting his niece. "So during the match, I tried to hurt them enough to maybe stay clear of her and focus more on us three, and I thought it worked. At Raw tonight, after Batista quit, I heard them talking on the way back from the bathroom, that they were going to take Elizabeth while we were in the ring. So I went to them and told them I would join them, but they had to leave Elizabeth alone." He was looking at both Roman and Dean again. He was breaking and wanted to be done all this. To not say anything else. Dean was motioning for Seth to continue. "So Randy and Triple H told me to attack you both and cripple you. In the ring, I couldn't do no more damage, and I don't know if you knew or noticed, but I choked in the ring. That's when I gave Randy the chair. I couldn't even look at what was happening. I zoned out, I didn't want to hear the painful cries from both you. Backstage, what set me off was when Elizabeth asked Triple H why he took me away from you three. After I got back to the locker room, I fell to my knees crying. I've made a huge mistake. I can't...I'm so sorry." Roman and Dean sat there watching Seth Rollins cry like a little child. Dean got up, went to the kitchen to grab Seth a bottle of water and a box of tissues. After a minute or so, Seth gave a small smile and a quiet "thank you." Dean looked at Seth "Now what happens?" Seth looked down again and said "We destroy Evolution and the Authority. I came up with this after what Randy said to Elizabeth tonight." Before Seth could get any furthure, Roman said "How can we trust you again?" "Listen, I know you and Dean have every right to never trust me again, but they threatened my niece and I won't stand for that. I know for damn sure you two won't stand for that. So this is what I was thinking..." " Why should we believe you? Believe any of this? How could this possibly work?" Dean said. Seth looked at Roman and Roman had a look that he was agreeing with Dean. Seth looked defeated. "Well, if you're interested in any of this, come to my hotel room tomorrow night. If I don't hear or see you, then I know where we stand officially. " Seth stood up, and pulled out a stuffed unicorn from his back pocket. "Can you give this to Elizabeth in the morning? Say anything about where it came from. I saw it and knew instantly she would love it." He was waiting for Dean or Roman to take it, instead Roman said "Give it to her yourself. " " Yeah, what do you think we are?" Dean replied along with Roman. Seth had a smirk on his face and went into see Elizabeth who was sleeping in a double bed. He put it under her arm and she woke up briefly "I love you Uncle Sef." and with that, she went back to sleep. "I love you too sweetheart. Always will."
