Finding My Room (O2A)

[mswilliams]

After signing a contract with Chantell and recieving her key to her room, Kenisha stands inside of an elevator with her gym bag slung over her shoulder. She hums the tune of the music playing inside of the elevator as she awaits for it to reach her floor. She looks down at the watch on her wrist to check out what time it was before looking back up at the doors of the elevator. A few moments laters and... [glow=green,2,300]*DING* [/glow]the elevator reaches the floor that she thought her room could possibly be on. As the doors begin to slide open, Kenisha pushes herself off of the rail inside of the elevator and proceeded to step out. She looked down at the number on the keys in her hand. As she walked, she looked up at the numbers on the doors. She then stops infront of a door with the number "186" on it. She looks over at the door next to it that read "187". She thought to herself... "Could he be here too? I heard he was coming... but I wonder... I'll find out later." She then turns her attention back to the door with the number "186" on it and she brought the key up to the door hand. As she slid the key into the lock, she heard footsteps walking up behind her...

As Sarah made her way back from the lobby of the Towers, when she turned the corner of the corridor where her and Jason's room was located, she caught sight of a woman who looked vaguely familar. She thought long and hard about it for a few seconds before realizing it was a woman she had considered a friend of hers even though she'd only met her once. She was one of the one's who helped in keeping her and Jason together back in New York so she was always willing to speak with her and see how she's doing. She begins making her way down the hall toward her as she stands in front of the door, seeming to be fumbling her door keys a bit. Before she can get the key in the door Sarah calls out to her...

[shadow=purple,left,300]Kenisha?...Kenisha is that you?...[/shadow]

[mswilliams]

Kenisha stands straight up as she hears a voice behind her. Taking the key back out of the lock and holding it in her hand. It was a female voice. A voice she sort of remembers but can't quite put a face to it. A voice she remembers back in New York but still her memory of who it was didn't ring a bell. She then turned around to see who it was, and to her surprise it was Sarah. A smile came across her face as now recognized who it was. She didn't expect to see her again. She was happy though. Atleast she now knew she would have a friend in the business. With that smile on her face, Kenisha responded back...

Sarah...? It's you. Yeah, I'm Kenisha. Wow, it's been quite awhile. You're part of APW too?

[Sarah Andrews-Cross]

[shadow=purple,left,300]Yeah girl. Jason and I thought it would be good to get a change of scenery you know. Especially with all of the drama that went on back in New York. But it's good to see you again. I didn't expect to see you here Kenisha. What happened back in New York? You and Laura were the best managers on the roster? Why leave?[/shadow]

Sarah stands awaiting a response from the woman who had helped her and Jason reunite when she thought they were completely done. She wondered what could possibly make Kenisha leave New York and come here to manage. But by the looks of the kind of shape she was in now, she looked as if she was thinking of competing in the ring. Sarah waited with wide open eyes for a word from her old friend.

[mswilliams]

She begins to nod her head as she listens to Sarah speak before saying...

I'm pretty sure Laura probably left because of what happened with The Familia. I haven't spoken to that girl in so long. It's been quite awhile. I've just been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to catch up with anyone. As for myself, I didn't feel comfortable being in New York anymore after what had happened to the Familia. More importantly, what had happened with Ad...I mean 187.

She caught herself from saying 187's real name. She knew how he didn't let just anyone call him it. So she made sure she didn't let it out.

Since all of the people I knew had disappeared in New York, I just had to go. I didn't feel comfortable being there anymore. I could have stayed but I just couldn't do it. I also didn't feel like I was doing to the best of my abilities as a manager. My clients really never gave me any work. So I heard about this place up North from a few sources and heard some rumors. Got a call from one of the bosses I believe it was. And I was on my way here. I've already got my contract signed and everything done. This time I won't be a manager though. I'm going to take a chance and fulfilling my dreams of being an actual wrestler of the roster.

[Sarah Andrews-Cross]

Sarah cracks a smile at word of Kenisha joining her in the newly formed Rose division of the APW. A quick nudge to her arm as she comments...Then she realizes that she had just mentioned that word she hated to hear with every breath in her body...Familia...Her facial expression changes and she can tell Kenisha caught it...

[shadow=purple,left,300]Yeah...I heard about that too. Unfortunate...For some people anyway...[/shadow]

Not wanting to let on how she didn't want to speak on the Familia or their past, she quickly changes the subject to...

[shadow=purple,left,300]But...That's good news to hear...Good for you Kenisha. No need to sit on the sidelines girl. Come on out there with me and get a little aggressive with the rest of us girls. And maybe some of the boys too... Tee Hee...It's just such a shame that you couldn't find some clients that would utilize your talents back there...I know they must be really hurting in the manager department with you gone...And Laura too...But we all need to get together sometime...Just us girls y'know...We said we were going to back in New York but never got the chance to...What do ya' say? When we catch up with her we go out one night?...Sound good?[/shadow]

[mswilliams]

I've been doing a lot of training recently so I think I might be pretty ready to step into the ring with some of APW's women. I have had a pretty good couple of matches back in New York. I'm not sure if you caught them but I had a pretty good match with Kim Hunter back when they had the Diva Search Contest. Then I think I did pretty good against Brent Starr, even though I was just managing in the match, I did do pretty good at getting some shots in on him. Other than that, I've been working out really. Keeping in shape. Trying to keep my in-ring skills pretty good. I'm hoping to do pretty good in the season.

A smile comes to her face as she puts two and two together with what Sarah is saying. She figured with the rumors of the Familia coming to APW, Laura wouldn't be too far behind. Kenisha nods her head at Sarah's offer and says...

To spend a night with you and Laura? Of course I will. I would love to spend some time and catch up with you and Laura. It's been awhile since we've all had the chance to hang out. I think it will be good if we do some catching up with each other.

[Sarah Andrews-Cross]

[shadow=purple,left,300]Great! We can make it a tradition for us three gals. None of us really know anybody else here in Toronto so we'll always have SOMETHING to do in our spare time when not out on the road y'know?...But...Are you going to try to get in contact with your friend 187? I know he must be worried about you by now. You should at least call him if you can. Don't have the man worried like that. From what I hear, he loves you like a sister.[/shadow]

[mswilliams]

Yeah, me and him are pretty close girl. A lot of people get the wrong idea about us when they see us together but it's not a relationship thing. That's where people get things confused. They believe me and 187 are an item, but that's not true. We're just close friends. He said if I needed him, he would be there. If I needed protection, he would be there. As I'm sure you might have heard the whole incident in the cafe in New York. That was the topic in the locker room for quite awhile. I think he might have overreacted with using an unloaded pistol to beat on someone. But I know he did it for good reason and with good intentions.

Kenisha began to nod with that smile on her face as she remembered the times in New York.

I've got to get in contact with him as soon as I can find a way to see him again. After New York, we kind of lost touch somehow. I don't really know what happened. He went up to California without saying anything, so I figured he wasn't coming back. He didn't mention anything about leaving, so I just don't know what happened there. I felt uncomfortable with him being gone, so I decided that I couldn't be in New York anymore. Not sure if he ever came back from that trip to California. After a week, I thought he wasn't coming back. So I just didn't feel comfortable girl.

[Sarah Andrews-Cross]

[shadow=purple,left,300]I see. That's weird. But I've heard rumors of him being here so hopefully you two can reunite soon Kenisha. I really hope so...But...[/shadow]

Sarah pauses as she realizes she's been speaking with Kenisha for a good while now and Jason was waiting for her. She knew he'd be steaming mad about being forgotten about over some girl talk.

[shadow=purple,left,300]...But Kenisha, it's REALLY good to see you and all but I've gotta get going okay? Jason is a monster when he gets impatient while waiting for me so...I better go...[/shadow]

She then steps toward Kenisha, arms open and the two women share a small sisterly hug and a quick smile between them. Sarah then turns and begins heading back down the corridor the same way she came.

[mswilliams]

See ya around Sarah. Don't forget about our girls night out.

After sharing a hug with Sarah before she went on her way to go see her husband Jason Cross, Kenisha turns back around to her door and puts the key into the lock. Then she turned the key and unlocked the door. She then enters the room with the gym bag over her shoulder still. A smile comes across her face as she looks around at what she will be staying in while she's here in APW. She then closes the door behind her and drops her gym bag off on the floor. She then headed toward the bathroom of the place and closed the door behind her. She felt a shower was definitely needed right now. It's been a long trip up here and she needed to take a load off her feet. She had the rest of the day to see if she could catch up with the others if they were around. But for now, she needs a little rest and relaxation for a little bit.
