Sometimes LAW management struck Shimmerlace as a bit daft. Where the fuck do you blighters suppose, on a Thursday morning, I'm going to find a carrier for a 185 pound cat?
But needs must, and Shimmerlace in full gear heaved across the Osaka LAW complex. Behind her ran a 6’x2’5”x2'5" portable kennel on a trolley. The kennel itself was light plastic, but when you added together everything inside it—30 cans of Friskies White Ocean Whitefish Tuna Shreds, plus the collar and leash, then the rabies vaccine, the few ounces of catnip, and don’t forget the squirt bottle and anti-flea shampoo—it made a mighty burden.
Many a head turned at Shimmerlace sweating and huffing to the secondary heavy-weight ring, in the door, past the ticket queue, and the attention only got more fierce when she had to ask some of the good folks there to hold the backstage access door.
(Should she have been worried she was out of her weight class and out of her home Lioness division?
Should she fuck. Today was for nothing but excitement: she'd soon be welcoming home a furry new member of her family.)
At the curtain just outside the ring, the backstage manager wore the usual headset and I dream nightly of death expression. That last bit might have been part of her gimmick; the green highlight and nose ring suggested a goth persona.
“Glad you decided to show up, Charlotte. Your manager wouldn’t have been happy if we’d needed to sub someone in. You're on after Cassandra in five—Are those...” she glanced warily at the trolley, “for the match…?” She turned to her clipboard, thumbing through the pages with a growing air of managerial concern.
Daft fucking management.
But Shimmer sucked it up and offered the girl her hand in a spirit of fraternal camaraderie. "Ma'am, I think we're off on the wrong foot. My name's Shimmerlace, and I'm here about an adoption.”
