Champions? (o2 Flush, Stacie)

[Yuki Kenzo]

Royal Flush vs N.i.N…for the tag team title. A match that goes in as one of the best matches of this weeks Full Throttle Show. A lot of back and forward action happens during the bout. But in the end it was N.i.N who pulled out the victory…

Lana: What a match.

Luthor: Indeed, who would have thought that N.i.N do it again and pull out the victory over Royal Flush. I mean look at the facts…these are just girls and the Flush are two big tall and strong men. I mean who would have thought that they could lose again to N.i.N.

Lana: Luthor?

Luthor: Yes?

Lana: Shut the fuck up. Everybody has known that Misaki Yoshida and Yuki Kenzo are two of the best female wrestlers that APW has to offer. You just have to look at the facts. Yuki Kenzo…a former Rose champion, actually one of the best Rose champions we ever had here in APW. And then we got Misaki Yoshida, a very good submission wrestler and holder of many titles in her homeland Japan. She is also a very good wrestling teacher as you can see when you consider that her tag team partner is also one of her students.

Luthor: This might be true, but still Royal Flus…..

Lana: Don’t start with this whole mens are better then women bullshit or I have to teach you a lesson. Anyway…this match was very exciting…you just have to look at the finish.

Luthor: Yeah…that was not bad…Misaki locking in a nasty Bow and Arrow submission move on Dice while Yuki took care of Kasino who wanted to interupt and save his partner.

Lana: Exactly a very good match…I am really looking forward to the next match of this two teams.

Luthor: True…but the question at hand is who will be the next challenger for the APW Tag Team titles?

Lana: I don’t know… but look N.i.N have got some mics in their hands… maybe we find out more about this situation when they have spoken.

With this last words, the camera zooms back in the center of the ring where the current APW Tag Team champions are celebrating their win over Royal Flush. Both members of Flush are on their Feets again, Stacie Wilson the special referee in this tag team match is also still in the ring, while N.i.N is standing on the turnbuckle with the titles raised in the air. Yuki just jumps down from the turnbuckle and reach for the microphone that Stacie is offering her. Misaki does the same and both girls have now a mic in their hand. Yuki just wanted to say something as Misaki begins to talk first.

[Misaki Yoshida]

Now this was a very good match. I must say I am very impressed from you two and without a doubt I can understand now why Yuki is so much in love with you Dice. But non then less, you two have pushed us, N.i.N to the limits. Limits of course that I intent to break if we should ever face again this seasion here in APW. Of course it would be something that I am looking forward. Simple because I respec you two as the tag team you are.

The fans in the arena seam to be a bit confused. Misaki was the one who has talked so bad about Royal Flush and now she wants to show them that she respect the team of Dice and Kasino?

Yes…I respec them and it shouldn’t be a surprise for Joshi fans or fans of Japanese wrestling of course. Sure we might talk crap as well in the ring before the match starts…but in the end we respec it each other as we are all professional wrestler and wrestling is a sport…So of course we should show the same respect to everyone else as we want to get it back.

Non then less…Royal Flush…this was proberly you last chance to face us for the titles again…except of course if there is no team who wants to challenge us for the titles…then you two are more then welcomed to walk up and speak out a challenge. I want….

Misaki couldn’t finish her speech as she was interuped by Yuki.

[Yuki Kenzo]

Yuki wants to say something too…don’t interupt Yuki before she even starts to speak…Yuki don’t like that.

Yuki says and sticks out her tongue to Misaki. Then a serious but still happy look appears on her face as she turns her attention to her boyfriend and his tag team partner Kasino.

Yuki wants to say that this was a very nice match and Yuki still hopes that Dice and Yuki will have a long party today. But Yuki is also sad that match is over… she really has hoped that Dice will win…

Yuki makes a sad face while Misaki slaps herself on the forehead as if she wants to say…this girl will never learn it…Yuki looks with a really cut look on her face at Dice while she waits for an answer.

[Dice Dillinger]

+He stood with his hands on his hips, staring at the canvas below in disbelief over the loss. Wasn't even about the belts really. They just didn't wanna lose to that oriental bitch Yuki was tagging up with. By this time, he realized that he was upset and disappointed but K Dog was more on the pissed side. Maybe with Stacie being the special ref did that. He wasn't sure as he glanced over seeing the big man with his back turned, facing out towards the crowd and shaking his head in disbelief as well. He reached over taking the microphone and raising it to his lips before speaking...+

Yea yea, you gals got our respect too. Ya' might be the toughest team we've faced all season with the exception of Pandora's Box. Far as I'm concerned? Ya' earned it. But ahh...As far as celebration goes?...

+He looked back over to his partner who had now turned back around, with his eyes locked intensely on Stacie. He raised an eyebrow at the big man before turning back and responding...+

Can't say for the big man right now. He looks majorly pissed so...Might just be me and you Yuki.

+Dice just shrugs it off, standing there waiting for a response from any one present in the ring.+

[Kasino Royale]

+He couldn't believe it. The loss? He could take that easily. Hell he could give a fuck about a loss really. But the fact Stacie was tied up in this N.I.N shit didn't sit well with him at all. The look on his face told it all. He wasn't happy in the least bit and he wasn't even sure if it was wise to even speak at the moment in time. He looked across the ring, staring a hole through Stacie it seemed, thinking of what to say or ever possibly what to do at this point. He knew it'd be better if he just took his leave. So he slowly raised his hands, nodding his head towards the new tag team champions before his massive frame stepped over the ring ropes, and in seconds landing to the arena floor, as the boos began to pour in from his reaction to the match. His steps began up the entrance ramp at a slow pace still shaking his head. He took a second to look back towards the ring, his eyes instantly locking with those of Stacie's seeing the reaction in her eyes. Choosing not to even concern himself with the matter, he kept on wanting to just get out of the arena at this moment in time before he did or said something he or others would regret.+

[Stacie Wilson]

Seeing Kasino stare angrily at her like that Stacie starts to feel a rush of conflicting emotions...shame & anger at herself for actually foolishly joining NiN...and accepting to be the special Referee. Anger at Yuki for turning her onto this. Anger at Misaki for not talking sense into her. Shame knowing Cynthia would disprove of this. Watching Kasino go Stacie starts to choke up...she wasn't gonna let him just walk out on her...she actually loved him...she hadn't verbalized it yet but she did...as she realizes this she turns angrily towards Yuki and shoots her a hateful look before quickly climbing out of the ring to chase after Kasino...maybe she would be able to make up for this huge mistake.

[Yuki Kenzo]

Hello what is happening?

Yuki makes a confused face as she notice how Kasino disappears followed by Stacie which starts to run after K-Dog. Yuki scratch her head and looks over to Misaki who just shrug with her shoulders.

[Kasino Royale]

+The big man could almost feel Stacie making her way up the ramp behind him as he kept on towards the entrance ramp. Before he knew it he was stepping through the curtain, now beginning the long trek through the backstage area of the arena. The look of anger and confusion still on his face, no words were spoken as he could hear right when Stacie stepped through the curtains herself. Knowing he couldn't avoid the coming discussion/confrontation, he stopped short, turning around to face her while shaking his head at her before speaking...+

Guess you're pretty proud of yourself for that bullshit out there tonight huh? What the hell were you thinkin' Stac?

[Stacie Wilson]

finally catching up to him Stacie sees him turn around and speak to her. Listening to his words Stacie keeps walking toward him until she is standing right in front of him. Looking up into his eyes Stacie doesn't hide the rush of emotions that were present in her gaze. Swallowing hard Stacie slowly stats to respond.

"Why...would...I be proud of myself for that? I just shamed myself in front of thousands of people. I don't know what I was thinking...I don't know why I did that tonight...I honestly don't now. I'm sorry Kev...I really am...because I just realized that...I...I...

Taking a deep breath Stacie tries to gather the courage to say what was on the tip of her tongue...to reveal her feelings for the big man before her. She didn't know if he would reject her for what she did tonight or embrace her after she said the words that she was quick to spit out at him.

...Kevin...I realized that I love you...and I'm sorry for what happened tonight...it won't happen again."

[Kasino Royale]

+Complete and utter shock...That was the last thing he thought he'd hear from her mouth when she stepped through the curtains a few moments ago. He knew this day would come sooner or later where that line between just "friends with benefits" and "lovers" would be crossed. He couldn't help but stare down at her as she looked up to his, locked as she awaited a response of some kind from him. He was still in shock over hearing those three words "I Love You"...Wasn't that he didn't feel the exact same way, because actually he had felt that way for a good long while now. There was no way he could express how much. He didn't even know if he was going to be able to return the gesture, though he knew she deserved to hear it from him. it surely took a lot of courage for her to say that at a time like this. +

+With the look of shock still on his face, his hand found it's way to hers, slowly guiding a few feet towards the nearest wall of the corridor. Placing himself against the wall, her standing directly in front of him, as the battle against himself began knowing what he needed to do. They made eye contact once again, just as he could hear Dice stepping through the curtains speaking something to Yuki and Misaki. Then completely out of character and something he swore he'd never do again, he spoke...+

I...I...Love you too...

+He could feel Dice's eyes burning a hole through him at the end of the corridor. He had sworn a million times not to ever get to this point with another woman after his piece of shit marriage. But it looks as if he was at that point again, still staring down into her eyes as the others approached, him not even caring if they heard his words to Stacie or not he continued on...+

I just don't understand what you're doin'...This whole...Whateva' that group is called...I ain't feelin' it too much baby girl. It ain't lookin' like it's gonna help things between us either so...I mean...How would YOU feel if the roles were reversed Stacie? I don't think you'd be too understanding either.

[Stacie Wilson]

Not even having second thoughts Stacie quickly responds sating what was in her heart..

"I'll quit then, it's not that bigga deal...I can make it on my own in singles competition. If it will hurt our relationship I won't do it...you mean to much to me to keep doing something like that."

Tightening her grip around his hand Stacie continues to look into his eyes while continuing.

"I wouldn't like to see you walk around naked in public, so I shouldn't do it to you then, and I won't...not again."

[Kasino Royale]

+That was music to his ears to hear. No man wanted to see his lady running around naked like she was Amber Gianni all the fuckin' time. He didn't understand how Dice did it everyday seeing Yuki do it over and over. Probably being drunk all the time. Alcoholic ass. He just shrugged it off, a grin coming to his face as he pulled her closer to him, as he could hear the footsteps approaching. He knew he'd hear it from the boys later on but he didn't really care too much. He quickly glanced over, seeing the look on Yuki's face. A long sigh escaped his lips before turning back to Stacie...+

Oh you know I'll be happy 'bout that but...Looks like you got two more people to tell it to. I'm sure they'll be cool with it though. Gotta be some other broads willing to run around naked with em' in the ring. Or dudes for that matter. Long as it ain't those damn Youngblood bastards.

[Stacie Wilson]

Looking up at him and smiling Stacie turns towards Yuki and Misaki and holds onto K's hand and keeps ahold of it as she walks slowly letting go when she had to. Walking over to Yuki Stacie gets right to the point...she didn't feel like beating around the bush.

"Sorry Yuki, but I got to quit NiN...it's either you two or him...and as much as I consider you two friends...I love Kasino...and I don't want to damage what we got between me and him...I hope you two understand Yuki."

[Misaki Yoshida]

Dice, Yuki and Misaki have just entered the backstage area as suddenly Kasino and Stacie came back. Stacie looks a bit concernt and after she has spoken out what she wanted to say, Misaki knows that she was right about it.

That is no problem…I am also not really a friend of this whole Naked is Nice idea from Yuki… but unlike you I can’t quit that easily…

[Yuki Kenzo]

Wha? Stacie wants to quit N.i.N?…Oh no….Now Yuki is sad …And what you mean you want to quit too?

[Misaki Yoshida]

Like I said I am not a fan to show of my tattoo in puplic. You know how I am thinking about that…but you are my aunt, my student and most important the leader of our family…so I got not many options left….Oh and Stacie if you want to come back…the door is always open…

[Stacie Wilson]

"Thank you 'saki...I'm glad you understand."

[Misaki Yoshida]

Sure no problem. Now lets get back to your friend and have some fun…Yuki and I have to talk about something important now under 4 eyes…you know.

[Yuki Kenzo]

Misaki needs to talk to Yuki?...Oh...kay....By by Stacie and good luck with whatever you doing now.
