*The scene opens.
Backstage moments after their match at Aftershock. Phoenix Rising push through
the curtain to the backstage area, Aeryn strides through first, the tag title
draped over her shoulder a triumphant look on her face after the defeat of
Valentina Madison and Christian Carter to retain the belts. Soul Shadow follows
behind her moving slightly gingerly, the skin on his torso already turning a
deeper shade of red from the shots taken to his ribs.
As the duo progress towards their individual locker rooms Soul calls out to his
partner making her pull up short, his tone has a slight edge to it, almost
parental like she's about to be reprimanded for neglecting her chores. She turns
towards him, spinning on her heels an innocent smile playing on her lips.*
Aeryn: Yes Soul?
Soul: What was that out there?
Aeryn: What was what?... We just defended our titles... did you take a knock to
the head? *She smiles playfully at him, he in turn still wears a slight frown.*
Soul: You know what i mean. We could have had them finished in five minuets if
you had just pinned Carter, instead you hand him back and INVITE Valentina into
the match... we came ... *Soul holds him hand up, his thumb and fore finger
almost touching* ... that close to losing to them tonight. If it hadn't been for
Carters arrogance, we may not be champions right now...
*Aeryn raises her eyebrow to his line of questioning, although her face never
loses its cheery expression.*
Aeryn: May haves and maybes. Come on Soul, we defended, were ok, still
champions... see...*She places her hand on the face plate of her belt.*
Soul: Yeah i see, but that's not the point. Allowing Valentina into the match
like that was reckless, Carter was done, all we had to do was keep her out until
the 3 count...
Aeryn: Ok...i get it, I'm sorry it was the heat of the moment, it wont happen
again with out consulting you first, i promise... * She puts her finger to her
chest and crosses her heart*… I had my reasons though i assure you.
*Soul looks at her curiously.*
Aeryn: Look you said it yourself we could have beat Carter in five minutes, we
did beat Carter in five minutes. But really, is that the way you want to play
it? I know a wins a win, but winning our first title defence by pinning a drunk
really is taking the easy way out! Especially when the real talent, the real test is outside on
the apron being excluded by that idiot. I wanted her to have the shot that she
deserved, she talked her way into this match, volunteering to partner him for
some god unknown reason. I just wanted to see what Valentina Madison was all
about ... wanted to give her the chance in the match that Carter was trying so desperately trying to sabotage with this ego.
Soul: That's commendable hun, but it's a decision that almost cost us. Remember
we worked hard for these to, i for one would like to keep them a little while. *He smiles at her.*
Aeryn: Me to...we do make them look really good! *She laughs. Looking down she
notice his ribs, an edge of concern creeps into her voice.* … that looks sore hun, are
you ok?
*Soul follows her gaze down.*
Soul: I'm ok, just another bruise to add to the ever growing collection.
Aeryn: If your sure... *She begins to walk off slowly backwards down the corridor* ... I'm going to get changed...
*Soul nods*
Soul: Oh one more thing ...
*Aeryn stops and looks at him*
Aeryn: Yeah?
Soul: *Smiling*... Kiss me like that again out there and the fans may get a little more action than they bargained for ...
*Aeryn blushes as she turns away, the satisfied smile returning to her lips as she walks off towards her locker room.*
*The scene opens. Two days before Reloaded.*
Rue: ... So then I told him he really had to leave, couldn't have you coming home and walking in on that ...
*Aeryn sits across the table from her friend and room mate. Having gone out to a bar for the evening to catch up, they had made themselves comfortable in a secluded booth. It was there that Rue had begun to tell her tale of debauchery in Aeryn's absence from their shared accommodation. Aeryn sips at her drink as she listens to her friend.*
Aeryn: Well that is disgusting ...*She laughs* ... My god I hope you wiped down those surfaces ...
Rue: *Laughing* Of course! I'm not an animal *She raises an eyebrow* ... well not always...
Aeryn: Eww ... remind me again, why do I live with you? *She smiles*
Rue: Because I am your best friend and the only one that will put up with your crazy life?! ... Ya know, just for starters
Aeryn: And I love you for it ... *She holds her glass up to Rue who returns her salute.*
Rue: Speaking of love ... I watched Aftershock. Did I hear Soul correctly?
*Aeryn smiles and nods but stays quiet.*
Rue: Oh come on Aeryn the man says he loves you and your not going to say anything?
Aeryn: Not yet i'm not. *Aeryn runs a finger around the top of her glass.* I was as surprised as anyone else to hear him say it, I know it took a lot for him to say it. He blushes just holding my hand so for that to come out on camera of all things was something of a surprise ... to both of us I think.
Rue: But you feel the same way right? I mean that kiss you gave him in the ring could have melted that gold you were holding. *Rue smiles*
Aeryn: Oh yeah, I love him ... I even love his kid, how crazy is that.
Rue: Woah, miss I dont do children ...
Aeryn: I know, I know! ... It scares me! I can go face to face with the biggest, baddest guys in wrestling and not bat an eye but this ... this is frightening.
Rue: In a good way?
Aeryn: In the best way ... I don't want to rush him though, he's been though a lot and had to deal with a lot by himself since his wife died. So I let him take things at his own speed, im in no rush. Plus its kind of nice just enjoying his company with out the extra stuff getting in the way ...
Rue: *Looking at her with an enquiring look* ... So you haven't? ...
Aeryn: ... Not that its any of your business, but no ... were not all “animals” like you *Aeryn smiles as she dodges a soft swipe from Rue.*
Rue: So what has the MPW got planned for you this week? Please don't tell me its another one of those crazy matches, I don't think I can stand seeing you limping around any more.
Aeryn: Your concern is touching... it really is...No this week I have Valentina Madison one on one, and unless she wants to take it there I don't think we'll be getting hardcore. Quite the contrary actually. From what I witnessed last week in out tag match this young lady can go. I'm really looking forward to testing out her technical skills.
Rue: Is that the one that teamed up with the booze hound?
Aeryn: Christian Carter...yes that's her, although I still dont have a clue as to why. As far as I could see Christian was already fighting that match on his own terms even before she accepted to partner him, and he certainly wasnt going to let her take any of the glory. Even though she had me down for the three he wouldnt let her be the one to take the pin. It saved me and cost them in the end for which I am grateful, but it doesn't change the fact the she had me beat.
Rue: Arent you concerned, I mean if shes had you down once she can do it again right?
Aeryn: Im wary. Of course I would be a fool not to be on my guard. But it really comes down to a case of the have and the have not.
Rue: What do you mean?
Aeryn: Well I HAVE the experience over her, she is good...very good for the level of training that she has had, but I have had a decade to learn this business. It doesn't make me perfect by any means but it gives me an advantage. Those years of experience have afforded me the foresight to scout an opponent, pick a weakness, avoid their strength and get myself into the best position possible to pick up the victory. I admit I was reckless at Aftershock and probably underestimated Valentina more than I should have and her skill actually caught me by surprise to a point that I am lucky to still be a tag team champion this week. That was her one shot though, I wont be making the same mistakes again. I am a tag team champion for a reason, I am the Roll of the Dice briefcase winner for a reason! I have the skill take on the best and emerge victorious. Valentina, you have not yet managed to do that, you have not managed to emerge from any of your main event matches against the best talent the the MPW has to offer victorious. You HAVE NOT before and you WILL NOT this week. Last week you and Carter went down in flames this week the only thing I have to say it ...This is Gonna Hurt.
