A Reckoning
Posted: Sun Aug 26, 2018 4:29 am
Jessica had grown up around wrestling. It was in her blood. She remembered when she was still seven years old, when her parents were still together, when she saw her dad wrestle someone who looked like a giant and improbably came out on top. She remembered when her oldest brother got in his first match when he was only 16 years old, and he lost but looked good in the defeat. She remembered her first match in a tiny gym in Iowa, where she learned the ropes the hard way. But she had never had to endure anything like that. Jessica thought she knew what she was getting into when she decided to fight up a weight class, but the stark reality of the situation was far different. Not only had she gotten beaten, the way she lost was humiliating. She had been downright manhandled by the larger, stronger Lilliana. Jessica was stripped naked, and had all of her body put on display for the world to see. And finally, she was sent through a table in a brutal knockout. The Violent Violet knew that she needed to bounce back from that. No, she needed more than a return. She needed a reckoning.
So Jessica donned her new gear, black and gold, and left the locker room. It had been a while since she was in her match, and she needed the time off. To hone her skills. To sharpen up. To prepare herself, emotionally and physically, for the long road back to success. She grew her hair out and practiced harder than she had ever in her life. No more cheeseburgers, no more beer. Just nothing but lifting weights, sparring, and doing everything that she could to get back on the saddle. It was going to be difficult, but Jessica thought she was ready. She grabbed a mic, and then entered into the arena.
When she first appeared, the crowd jeered her. They had known her for being squashed and humiliated. It was going to take a lot to win them back. With a deep breath, she began.
"Fuck you guys, I don't give a fuck what you think." Jessica began. She started walking down to the ring, flipping them off as she went. "Fuck you," she pointed at an individual fan, "and you," another, "and you too, dipshit." She had finally arrived at the ring, and slid under the bottom rope. Her purple eyes flashed with anger as she surveyed the arena around her.
"You guys don't know me. I promise you that. For these past few weeks, no one has worked harder, learned more, and improved more than me. You guys are not going to fucking believe what you see in the ring. The next person to walk down that ramp is going to be leaving this arena in a stretcher. If they don't leave in a fucking coffin. That is not a threat, it is a promise. And I am a woman of my word." Jessica was all but snarling into the mic, letting her frustration and determination and flair fly.
"But here is the fucking deal. Talk is cheap. I can tell you what I am going to do all day, but it is much more fun to show you. Next woman to come down that ramp is going to get a taste of what it is like to go against a future champ. Next woman to come down that ramp is going to get turned black and blue. Next woman to come down that ramp is going to get their ass kicked." Jessica pointed to emphasize how serious she was. Even as she quietly prayed that it was not Lilliana again.
"So who the fuck is up?" She asked as she spread her arms wide.
