''I love you'' he said while he wrapped his arms around his mother. As he gathered his luggage, he looked his father in the eyes. The both of them knew what that meant, they don't need to say it, and needless to say; he knew every night they'll both be praying.

''Rollins!'' Hunter yelled and without turning around, he tossed his bags under the buss and took his seat next to Randy. Behind them his home disappeared and he sighed. Here we go again.

''I'm sorry baby but my name was called…'' Seth turned to see Cena on the phone. Douche.

''Dammit'' his gaze now faced Randy who gave Miz some bucks. Inquisitive he frowned and Miz chuckled.

''Bet; if Cena would have the balls to say it to her face this time, or not'' slowly Seth leaned his head backwards and his eyes shut. Morons, every single one of them.

''I swear, this is worse than the food'' Randy mumbled and they all agreed.

''Kevin Owens''

''Here we go'' Kevin breathed out as he left his seat to follow Beth Phoenix. As Kevin entered, Dean returned with a face expression that made them all laugh.

''How did it go Ambrose?'' Seth mocked his friend.

''Oww would you shut it'' he mumbled as he took his seat.

''Seth Rollins''

''Yes'' Seth rose with confidence and turned his gaze against the voice. The new girl, what a pleasure; not. While trying to ignore his wolf-whistling friends, he followed her in to a room.

''Take a seat'' she said as she grabbed his files. Discreet he observed her from top to toe while she read the document. True, she's pretty; but not his type. He's more into blonds, not brunettes; plus she looks so tiny.

''Okay'' she said eventually and placed down the files. They started off with the vision test, then his length, weight and pulse.

''Take your shirt off'' his gaze followed her while she casually placed her stethoscope in her ears. Without any objection, he obeyed and the shirt slipped off. She placed the cold metal part on his chest and started to count his heartbeats. Then she goes behind him and give him commandos:

''Breath out, in, out, deep, hold…out'' he does as she says.

''Well then'' she started to fold her stethoscope,

''Looks good, if you'll survive I'll see you out there'' he frowned and she made a facepalm.

''That came out all wrong! What I mean is… ehh'' she covered her blush of embarrassment and he couldn't help but smile.

''It's fine, I know what you mean… are we done?'' he tried to be polite and she bit her bottom lip before she nodded. They walked down the hallway and when they re-entered the waiting room, she stopped to yell Neville. He turned to look at her, but she was already leading Neville back to the health examination room. Well, she's okay; for being a brunette.

''Lucky bastard, did you make a move?'' Roman was the first one to break the stupid grin they all had on their lips.

''Not my type'' he replied cocky and Roman shook his head with a smile.

''Well, maybe it's because you're ugly'' Dean cracked and Seth gave him a punch while the other laughed.

Left, right, left, right, left, right. They marched thru the deserted village while the sun cooked them alive.

''Halt!'' they paused.

''Listen up soldiers! We're going to settle for the night; first watch is on 17C!'' Hunter roared while they held their positions.

''Understood?!''

''Yes sir!'' they echoed as a reply. Hunter gave away a nod and they were now allowed to leave their positions.

''Which unit are you in?'' John peeked over Roman's shoulder to make out the number on the paper.

''42B, you?''

''79E'' he groaned.

''42B'' Seth appeared and he and Roman connected fists.

''Fuck you all; 54A'' Dean joined them and they chuckled.

''Honestly, I can't wait until we hit the camp. The supplies there are the only thing that makes me keep moving'' Dean continued his whining and they all glared at him.

''What?'' he said. Such an idiot, they have a one day march ahead of them and knowing that just made the night appear even tougher then they prepared themselves for.

''Dude'' Seth groaned.

''Dude!'' he shoot his eyes open and stared at Dean.

''What?!'' he moaned as he went up to seated position.

''I can't sleep'' Seth stopped rubbing the back of his head and was now glaring at his moron to friend.

''You've got to be kidding me…'' he was about to snap when Dean continued.

''You think we'll survive this?'' Dean looked serious and Seth forgot about being upset.

''Who knows buddy, who knows'' Dean nodded slowly.

''It wouldn't be the first time tho'' he tried to cheer him up but Dean continued to nod.

''Now wake me one more time, and I will castrate you with my bare hands'' with those words he returned to his sleep while hearing Dean chuckle in the background. Lunatic.

Left, right, left, right, left, right. They paused.

''Did someone hear that?'' Dolph darted his eyes down the road. There it was again; the noise.

''Dismiss!'' and in a second, just as they were trained, the road was cleared. It was as they had disappeared in to thin air; as they weren't even there to begin with.

The jeeps rolled past them and Roman peeked up to confirm.

'Enemies' he gestured and everyone took a tight grip around their weapon.

'Hold back' Hunter commanded and they obeyed. Not that they had much of a choice. Sitting there, barely breathing, Dean heard something wired. Slowly he turned to find Kofi sitting there, rocking back and forth, mumbling a prayer in to his pooled palms. The other seemed to have noticed as well and observed him as he continued. Some followed his steps by beginning their own prayers.

''Clear'' Punk interrupted the moment and head after head started to appear.

''Positions'' Hunter refrained from yelling considering the situation and the men took their positions.

Left, right, left, right, left, right.

'Run you idiot, run!'' Seth dragged Dean in tow as they ran. He tried to keep his gaze focused on the big Samoan's back. It appeared that it wasn't as clear as they thought. The enemies had followed them after their little collide back at the road. The troupe had obviously split up, just as they're supposed to do, and the boys had locked gazes just before the split.

''Schh'' they pressed their selves against a big rock; awaited footsteps. None appeared and slowly, but surely; they began to breath again.

''We need to get to the camp'' Dean whispered.

''Have you lost your mind?! Never risk exposing your base to the enemies, you know they can follow us'' Roman snapped.

''So we should just sit around and await our doom?!''

''Shut up, we'll make it to the camp. However, we'll take the way around'' Seth darted his gaze on the two men and they nodded. God bless them.

Dean hated this. The only reason they were fleeing from NXT was because they were in their zone; this was enemy territory. Just wait until they'll get to the camp; from there it's WWE territory.

Hunter, Miz, John, Alex, Kofi, Dolph, Swagger, Wade, Dean, Seth and Roman made their way towards the camp; tried to locate themselves while being alert.

''You're bleeding'' Seth looked down at his chest when Wade spoke the words. His ribs were bleeding*.

''It's just a scratch… thanks to the moron over there'' he nodded towards Dean.

''Excuse you, I told you to leave me behind but did you listen; no''

''You know damn right that if I'd left you; Paige would have had me hanged'' they laughed, which made Seth grab his stomach in pain; Okay, maybe it wasn't just a scratch.

''You okay buddy?'' Roman noticed.

''I'm fine'' he replied, making a smile, trying to act as convincing as possible. Hunter seemed to have paid attention.

''For fuck sake, Rollins strip'' he made a gesture with his hand; aiming him to lift his uniform up. With a sigh, he obeyed.

He groaned as his clothes separated from the open wound on his ribs.

''Fine huh, you've been hit you asshole; didn't I tell you all to wear vests?!'' he darted his frustrated eyes on the squad and they looked away in shame.

''Come on boss, you know we never listen'' Dean tried to joke but Hunter wasn't in the mood.

''Let's just make it to the fucking camp before that gets infected'' he nodded towards Seth before tuning to observe his compass. Bullshit, they already knew it had been infected by now; he was worried.

''Stay down!'' Hunter hissed and they stayed pressed to the ground. A crack-noise appeared and Roman frowned.

''Can it be…?'' Roman lifted his head some inches.

''One for all'' he said,

''And everyone else for themselves'' the reply made them smirk and they started to peek up.

''I knew it was your elephant steps, Batista'' Roman chuckled at the soldier who gave him the middle finger.

''Wait, if you're here… that means the camp must be near?'' Dean widened his eyes in hope.

''Yeah, it's just around the bend and then a quick walk…'' Batista began but Dean was already headed against the given direction.

''We were sent to find Hunter, but I guess Steph will be pleased to know you're alive as well'' Edge shook his head as he watched Dean disappear around a rock.

''Yeah, I can't imagine what it would be like without Ambrose'' Batista said sarcastically.

''Quiet'' Roman replied while they followed the lunatic toward the camp. Seth once again remembered his injury as the pain shoot through his body. Okay Rollins, fifteen minutes and you'll hit the camp; stop whining.

I know, I know, it's very ''jumpy'' atm but I promise that when they arrive at the camp; the story is going to get in to details! I wanted to include the goodbyes and the road to the camp, but I than realized that it would take at least 5 chapters to just make it to the camp if I would get in to details already.

Knowing that, I'll make some things clearer: the divas are nurses, the males are soldiers and Elena (''the new girl'') is the new arrived diva aka nurse. NXT is the enemies and this story will focus on the former Shield members Seth, Dean and Roman. Got it? Any more uncertainty; feel free to ask! But like I said; ''the story will soon begin'' and a proper flow will initiate.
