Even after my tantrum at the arena yesterday, I was unable to calm down. Sure Lance said he was going to step into the ring against Tyler, and I was set to be the special guest referee, but I was still not happy about the bullshit from Warzone. Maybe if I had broken something of Tylers, and not everything of my own, it would have made me calm down faster, sadly.. everything I had from him was not here with me now. Sure most people get rid of things from their ex after they split, but me… I put it all away in the back of my closet. Truth be told… if I was home right  now, and not here at the hotel, I might wind up regretting if I broke anything later down the line. At this moment… the only thing I am regretting is tossing the laptop through the television. Now not only was I needing to buy a new laptop, but there was a mess around the hotel room that I was not going to clean up… but I was surely going to have to pay for.

Sitting here on the couch trying to convince the hotel manager that I would take care of things… was costing me greatly.

“Ms. Evans, I am sure you understand that I can not let you continue to stay here after damaging hotel property.”

Honestly… at this moment, I didn’t give a shit. I stared at him and his security guard behind him and all I seen in his place was Tyler Brooks with Rain standing behind him. What I wanted to do was get off the couch and beat his face in… restraining myself was not easy.

“Look. I am replacing the damaged property. All you have to do is walk out of here and let me get myself together so I can go shop for the shit that needs replacing.”

“I need you to pack your things and take your leave before you do any more damage.”

I closed my eyes trying to get the image of Brooks and Rain out of my head before I did something I would pay for even more so.

“My things will be packed once you get off my case. What you need to worry about is the dumbass fucks who don’t know how to mind their own business and decided to call you in the first place. Now, either you back off and let me do what I have to do… and get some upgraded shit in this room, or you stand there longer and waste both of our times.”

I opened my eyes looking up at them just to see the security guard stepping closer to me. All I could see was Rain’s face once more and I jumped off the couch and flew rights and lefts at him knocking him on his back raining down a parade. Hearing the manager calling for backup got me to my feet and going at him as well. Hell… Brooks had it coming to him! Next thing I know… More security is coming in and restraining me while waiting for the police so the manager and security guard could press charges. Fucking hell… I thought the Syndicate was now down to two.  Where did these fuckers come from?

 

Hours later I found myself standing inside a stink ass cell waiting to have my damn phone call. Stupid fucks were making this more difficult than it had to be. Finally they allowed me the time to make a call and the first person to pop into my head was Chase.

Ring. Ring. Ring. I grew impatient waiting for him to answer his phone and my hand clenched around the phone in my hand as his machine picked up.

“God damn it Chase! Get your dick out of whatever bitch you grabbed for the hour and get down here and bail me out of jail!”

I slammed the phone down more irritated now than I was before, if that was possible. What in the hell was I thinking having Chase be my only phone call?!

 

Back in the cell again I refused to sit down. Instead I paced back and forth, glancing at the clock here and there watching as the time went by.

“Hell, I guess I should be stoked that I am going against someone I have faced in the ring before. Not in IWF of course, however… Deruty has not changed too much. Sure he went from a baby face poster boy to a fuck face who stood by and helped set me up for Rain… but that doesn’t change the fact that we were once tight… does it? Fucking right it does!

Donald Deruty. You know better then to screw me over. You have seen what I do to anyone who gets in my way many times before, and this time… you are stepping into the ring against me not as a friend… but as an enemy. The poster boy I was once tight with is long gone… whether you want to admit it or not.”

I shook my head thinking about the Ultimate Showdown event where I was in the ring with 5 men. Three titles on the line including my own Television title. I was one of the last three standing… that was accomplishment enough for me. I walked out with the title I walked into the match. That worked well for me. Hell, Deruty was the one that pinned me even… and he was a gentlemen after the fact and helped me off the mat before getting pinned himself. That man is no longer the one I see when I look at the one I am facing in the ring this week.

“We were always able to put things aside and step into the ring against one another. I came to you for advice even many times… you gave it too. What you didn’t notice however, was that every time you helped me out… you let me in a little deeper to who you are, and how to tick you off. So you are now an asshole… big deal. I have been one my whole life, so welcome aboard. I know how to deal with assholes just the same. That doesn’t help you out at all buddy. Nope, it just makes you that much easier for me to beat.”

I found myself smirking while speaking aloud. Who knew one could find something to smile about while in a bitch of a place like this.

“You see Deruty, while you were playing poster boy over there still… I was over here working my ass off even still. Sure I left that place, but as you seen… I never stopped wrestling. I was one of the top competitors over there… and I knew it was my time to go. The competition just wasn’t right for me. I even came back once more to try again… but things were different for me. I couldn’t find myself enjoying things anymore there… while having the competition of a lifetime here in the IWF. I have had to up my game… you can see how much harder it is here. The competition is just that much better. That much stronger… yet… here I am.

Sure my record might not be great, but that never bothered me. I take each match as a learning experience. Always have… always will. This week, you will see another side of me. No… I will still be the bitch I have always been… but when I step in the ring against you, you will see that I have grown in the ring greatly. I have learned so much more… and that might just be your downfall.”

I stopped pacing and groaned looking at the clock once more. How the hell long was it going to take for Chase to look at the damn phone? Stupid question. He would have to be sober enough, and awake long enough no inside someones…. ugh. Can’t even think about it. Why the fuck didn’t I call someone else?

“Even though you are no longer with The Syndicate Deruty… it won’t save you. You already crossed the line with me. You set me up. You did someone elses dirty work, and now is my chance to thank you for it all. I will be thanking you by shoving my foot so far up your ass you will see just how tight we really are. Not only did you do that and have to pay for it… but you are getting me in the ring just one week shy of me stepping into the ring against Tyler Brooks. One week after that same man costing me a match. No, I am not saying I would have pinned Mez… but he made sure I didn’t have the chance either. Since I have to wait to get my hands on him… You will have to do.”

I clenched my fists thinking about the shit Brooks pulled this past week. I wanted to hurt him… kill him even. He was becoming a thorn in my side and it was digging harder and harder and becoming that much more difficult to just avoid.

“That brings me back to the opportunity I have been given by Lance Norman. Tyler Brooks… I never would have thought things would come to this… but they have. Instead of just letting things be as they were… you decided to make things more difficult, and after hearing I wanted you in the ring… you decided to be a bitch and show me you were ready. Kudos to you for interrupting my match and taking me out. Good job coming down and catching me while I was already beaten down by someone else already. You must think you’re a god. At one time I might have agreed with you… but now, you are anything but that. Right now it is you who should be worried. Not me. You see… You should be wondering if I will call things straight down the line or not. I have never claimed I played by the rules. With that being said… knowing I am going to be the special enforcer for your match against Lance Norman… do you really think you have a shot in hell? Do you think for one second that I can just let everything go and play by the rules calling it straight down the line?

For you… I would have done anything… and you had better hope that still stands. Otherwise… you might find yourself on the wrong end of the deal. After all… there will be no one there to help you. It will be you… all alone in the ring… with Lance Norman and myself. NO ONE will be coming to your aid this week Brooks. No one will be allowed to come out to the ring. I call the shots in your match this week Brooks… and you should expect hell.

This week is about me making a statement.. Not only while reffing the match between Norman and Brooks… but while in the ring against Deruty as well. I am done playing games. I am sick of the shit… and its time to do something about it.”

Hearing movement I turned and looked as a guard was heading towards the cell.

“Ms. Evans. You’re free to go.”

Finally! Chase must have gotten the call after all. I moved to head out of the cell to get my things at the desk. Not seeing Chase I raised a brow. Shaking it off I grabbed my things after signing for them and headed outside. Fresh air. I could finally breath again without smelling the foul stench of urine. Hearing someone clear their throat had me turning to the side only to freeze.

“Wait… you did this? How did you… Why did you.. thanks.”

I stated before giving up trying to figure anything else out. I had too much going on to worry about the small things right now. I was out… and thats what mattered the most to me at the moment. Now… I had a match to prepare for… and it was going to be a pleasure to step into the ring with Deruty and make a statement to anyone who dares cross me in the future.
