Roxi- Well, last week went awful. My partner just let me down, and then retired. Chris couldn't have done it at a worse time. It's not just the fact that we lost. But the fact that Bloodhound can now gloat about a victory over me.
[ She of course, is talking to Herman, her favorite gargoyle. ]
Roxi- I know right, like he could ever beat me. But still, I owe him for jumping me from behind because he's a sore loser. That's just too bad. And yet, there he was gloating about how he beat me up, after I beat him.
[ She pauses, as if listening to the statue. ]
Roxi- You're right, some people just can't stand losing. But still, you don't just attack people for no reason. I'm sure that somewhere down the line, I'm get the chance to humilate him again. But you know what really sucks?
[ She looks at the statue. ]
Roxi- Exactly, Now he's the referee for my match this week against Jason X.
[ She stares blankly. ]
Roxi- Jason X? you mean you've never heard of him? Well.. let me tell you all about him...
[ She stares blankly. ]
Roxi- Well...he beat the entire step-up roster. I don't know if that's much of an accomplishment, but it's still...a thing.
[ She shrugs. ]
Roxi- But it seems the deck is clearly stacked against me. But that's not going to change any time soon. You know that, so do I. Being a world class athlete, great wrestler and a superhero to the stars is well, challenging.
[ She turns and looks out at the city. ]
Roxi- But, it's my gift, and my curse. I know what I'm up against. Jason X is going to be tough, but I know I can beat him. However...Bloodhound is the wild card. I know he hates me. I know he's not happy about me beating him, and I'm sure that he'd love to cost me this match. But it's not going to happen. It's going to be a big boost to beat Jason X, and an even better feeling to make Bloodhound count the pin when I do it.
[ Her wrist communicator goes off. ]
Roxi- Go ahead guild base.
Guild Base - Lady Bedlam, you're presence in requested at the Guild for you psychological evaluation.
Roxi- Be there in a flash.
Guild Base - Roger.
[ She turns back to Herman. ]
Roxi- Well, duty call Herman.
[ She bounds off. ]
Well, it's comes down to me and Jason X. I love the challenge of facing someone who has his talent level. But, it doesn't matter, I need to come out on top. Regain the edge over Bloodhound.
Jason says I'm the villain though. Which was...offputting. I guess he considers himself a hero. That's cool and everything, but, I guess I need to clarify something to him: I'm the only hero in MPW, and I'll prove that this week.
Doctor - Welcome Lady Bedlam, please have a seat.
Roxi- Sure.
Doctor - Don't be nervous, this is just a basic eval.
Roxi- Okay.
Doctor - I'm just going to ask some basic questions and you just answer them truthfully.
Roxi- Gotcha.
Doctor - Now, when you think of a hero, what's the first word that pops in your head?
Roxi- Me.
Doctor - Okay...When you think of a villain, what do you think of?
Roxi- Hannibal Lecter
Doctor - Hmmm...
Roxi- What?
Doctor - Nothing. Moving on, when do you think you should use lethal force?
Roxi- When my life, or someone else's life is in danger.
Doctor - Very good. Now, I want you to picture a bank robber.
Roxi- Okay.
Doctor - Now, I have this pen and paper, and I want you to draw that villain.
Roxi- Okay.
[ After a few moments, she finishes. ]
Doctor - Done?
Roxi- Yup.
Doctor - Let's see it.
Roxi- Here.
Doctor - You...you drew the Hamburglar.
Roxi- Yes.
Doctor - Right...
Roxi- He's a thief.
Doctor - I suppose.
Roxi- Hey, the man is a danger. I always wondered why Ronald associated with a guy like that.
Doctor - Uh-huh
Roxi- Can you imagine if he was successful? That would be a crime.
Doctor - Alright, one last question: Is there any situation where you would ....
Roxi- No..
Doctor - I didn't finish.
Roxi- It's obviously something sexual.
Doctor - No.
Roxi- Well, in that case...yes.
Doctor - So, you would destroy a town if it meant you could save Alf?
Roxi- ....Yes.
[ She gets up and storms out. ]
