Summary: Sequel to The Heartbreakers. Alexis Michaels is off WWE and on TNA. She seems to get along fine, but the Knockouts and Immortal don't like her and someone is still following her. And it's the last person she'd expect.

Alexis walked backstage at the Impact Zone in jeans and an old black and white shirt from when she was in OMEGA with Matt and Jeff. The Hardyz necklace Jeff had given her was still around her neck as well as her silver cross necklace, her hair at its natural color and messily kept back with a lot of black and neon green clips. It was the night she was going to sign her contract live on the show, both members of the Motor City Machine Guns going to be coming out with her.

Time has come and gone for words
A thousand threats I've heard before
But words are cheap, but lies are meant to kill
Time has come and gone—

"Hey, Jeff," she said with a smile as she answered her phone. "What's up?"

"Please come back," Jeff begged. Alexis just laughed. "I'm serious, Lex! I'm so bored without you! There's nothing to do anymore during shows!"

"You realize that I see you usually once a week, we talk and text all the time, and we webchat a lot, right?" the blonde asked. "Besides, don't you have Matty to keep you entertained?"

"He's been disappearing with Evan a lot," the slightly older said. Alexis could practically hear the pout in his voice. "And he can't make fun of Hunter like you can anyway."

"Hey, Lex!" Chris waved at her from down the hall. "Come on! We're gonna be late!"

"Who was that?" Jeff asked.

"Chris, I need to go. Hey, is Shawn around?"

"Um…just a sec." Alexis caught up with Chris as she waited, walking with him.

"Jeff?" Sabin asked.

"Now it's Shawn," she replied.

"Alexis?" Shawn's voice came through the phone, making her smile. "How are you?"

"Tired," she admitted with a small laugh. "Flying from San Antonio to Wallingford, Connecticut is not what I love doing. You gonna watch the show tonight?"

"Turn around."

"Um…what?"

"Alexis Shawn, just turn around." Alexis did as she was told; Shawn used her middle name when he wanted her to do something and not use her full name to get her mad. She smiled immediately and flipped her phone shut.

"Shawn!" she exclaimed happily, running into a hug from her brother.

The Heartbreak Kid grinned. Hunter and Mark were behind him; Jeff had actually been in Cameron and had just transferred the call to Shawn. "You really think I'd miss my little sister getting a contract?" he teased. "And because I apparently can't be trusted alone, Hunter and Mark came along."

"Because your brother is crazy, sweets," Hunter teased with a grin.

"Lex, we really gotta go now," Chris said, looking at the time. "We're gonna be late."

"We promise to keep him out of trouble," Hunter promised with a small laugh as he looked at Shawn. "Have fun."

"I'll be back soon, Shay-Shay," Alexis said, kissing her brother's cheek before running off with Chris to find Alex.

"Shay-Shay?" Sabin asked as they ran.

"Hey, I was 6," the blonde defended. "It's what I liked to call him."

"You're such a dork."

The Immortal music played, Hulk Hogan walking out with a microphone in his hand. The ring was empty save for a table covered in black fabric, a clipboard resting in the middle and a bucket of ice with champagne and four glasses sitting next to it. Hulk climbed into the ring and looked around through his black sunglasses. "Ladies and gentlemen, we have a contract signing." The crowd cheered and clapped. "Now technically, she could be a Knockout, but she's better than that. Miss Alexis Michaels!"

Alexis walked out on the stage, smiling as she waved at the crowd. Chris and Alex were behind her as she walked down the ramp, both in jeans and matching Motor City Machine Guns shirts. When she had been fired as a result of her match with DiBiase, she was stripped of her Intercontinental Championship title, so that had stayed with the WWE. They climbed into the ring together, Hulk on one side of the table and Alexis on the other with Chris and Alex leaning back against the ropes. She picked up a microphone.

"What's up, Wallingford?" she asked, smiling as she looked around at the cheering crowd. "You know, when I left my old job, I didn't really know what I was going to do. There's not many good jobs you can get when all the experience you have is a year and a half as a busboy at the Hard Rock Cafe in San Antonio, wrestling in OMEGA, appearances in WCW and the WWF, and about a year's worth of employment at in the WWE." She laughed. "But then I remembered that I could always come here."

"Now, Alexis, this is a two-year contract in my company," Hogan said, pushing the clipboard toward her.

Alexis skimmed over the contract, setting down her microphone and picking up the pen on the table. She set the tip of the pen down on the dotted line but at the last second picked it back up. She looked around at the crowd, silently asking their opinion whether she should sign or not.

"Hey, if you sign it, you could be on the show with us all the time," Chris bargained with a grin.

Alex slapped his arm with a grin of his own. "We're trying to make her sign, not scare her away," he teased.

Alexis laughed at them. She set the tip of the pen back on the dotted line but didn't sign. "Sign and we'll let you join the Motor City Machine Guns," Chris said.

"Dude, you already promised that." Alexis signed her name with a flourish and threw the pen down on the table when she was done. The crowd cheered, Alex opening up the bottle of champagne and pouring out the four glasses that were sitting on the table. Chris, Alex, Alexis, and Hulk all grabbed a glass, and held them up with a grin.

"Congratulations, Alexis," Hulk said. "You are now part of the TNA company."

"And I'm going to kick ass," Alexis joked with a smile.
