Post Trauma 199 10:30 PM
A unusually quiet Alexa sits pensively in her chair her mind sifting through her mind the events of the evening that had just followed and what chaos she had been able to cause during the night. She may not have been booked to wrestle but she didn't care. She could show up anyways and do what she wanted to
because they were not able to do a damn thing about it.
She knew from working there for two years which PCAS officers were susceptible to bribes and which ones were easily intimidated. She knew how to work and manipulate the system to her advantage. She had been doing this for all her life and it just came naturally to her now. It shocked her that PCW still hadn't caught on to this and tired to prevent this corruption from happening. Still it wasn't her problem anyway so she didn't care.
A flashback plays in her mind from earlier that night.
Pre Trauma 199, PCW Arena 6:00 PM
Two large security guards stand like statues outside the back entrance to the arena their arms crossed and their eyes scanning around for any hint of trouble.
The first guard is a large African American man. His black PCAS t-shirt is stretched right over his bulging muscles that looks like he has grapefruits stuffed up his shirt sleeves and a keg under his shirt. He is wearing black jeans and black dress shoes.
The other is a slightly smaller Caucasian man who is dressed similarly to his partner but is not as built. His tussle of blonde hair is gelled up and his face is weary.
"Keep an eye out Marty. Mr Wryght said to make sure that no trouble is happening tonight. These last few shows have been crazy man. Shit being set on fire people being brutally attacked and left severely beaten. I am actually glad I'm not an active wrestler here. There are some fucked up people who come through and I swear it's getting worse every week." The African American man states with a sigh.
"I know Mike. Between MURDOC Anarchy and Seromine we have been kept ridiculously busy. We sure as hell have earned a pay check from just dealing with that shit.
I wouldn't want Mr Wryght's job for all the money in the world. He actually has to try to keep everything together and I don't know how he does it." Marty replies nodding his head.
Nearby a large black SUV pulls up into the parking lot and comes to a halt in a parking space before the headlights fade and the engine dies.
The doors open and from the SUV Alexa exits from the back and The Shaw's from the front before all the doors slam shut and the car chirps to signify it's locked .
The trio crosses the parking lot in silence moving as one towards the arena and the back door guarded by the two PCAS staff.
Stepping forward towards the two security officers Alexa smiles and tries to walk past but they stop her from entering and stand fast where they are.
"Oh no you don't your not going in there. You need to leave now. I'm not loosing my job because you go in there and cause trouble. Go on leave here now!" Mike speaks firmly and without hesitation to Alexa who frowns and takes a step back before reaching into her coat pocket and pulling out two big wads of cash.
"Ok gentleman I have here a little gift from me that I think may get you to change your minds about letting me in. This is $1000. It's a nice bonus and think of what you could do with that extra money... It sure would be handy wouldn't it?" Alexa motions to the money and both men look at it for a moment.
"It would be good I mean I've got some bills and things I need to settle and that money would go well towards it..." Marty says thoughtfully.
"Hey man you know we can't we would loose our jobs." Mike reminds him.
"Ok ok you drive a hard bargain but I'll play along...$2000 then."
She reaches in again and pulls out another two wads of bills and places them on top of the first one.
"Fuck it . It's not like this jobs pays that well. Ok you can go in but make it quick I can't be seen letting you in." Mike pushes open the door and the trio quickly head in through the door and into the arena before slamming the door shut behind them as the two guards step back into place but with much fatter wallets.
We come back to Alexa who is still sitting in her chair with a beer bottle in hand as the Shaw's arrive and join her. Her loyal and constant companions they could tell that she wasn't herself.
Alexa was caught by surprise by the announcement from PCW President "Mr Showtime" Michael Wryght regarding Trauma 200 and the huge match that he was booking putting her the Dillinger Brothers MURDOC and her ally Seromine against Nathan Kelli Dan Fierce Rick Majors and someone who was yet to be determined.
It was unlikely that it would be Brenna,her injury seemed serious and would keep her out of the match but on the other hand it could be anyone. NCM could be coming back for revenge , Whitey Ford could show up and make a surprise appearance. Corey or Jury or whatever the fuck he calls himself these days might return. It was that unknown that worried her a little.
Usually a chaotic and care free spirit she knew this time she would not be knowing what was coming and that her opposition had many reasons to take her out.
Shifting in her chair she puts her head in her hands and sighs.
"So even when I win at Deadly Intentions I will still be banged up going into that huge match on Trauma... It's fucked but there isn't anything I can do.
Ok we will deal with that when it happens but right now we have something else to take care of. Come on boys it's time to complete my return to power and then I will show them all what true fear is!"
She rises from the chair and throws the bottle across the room smashing it into glass pieces that littler the floor and make a mess everywhere as all three exit the locker room and make their way to the parking lot.
Badwater Basin,Death Valley National Park,Death Valley,California
Thursday 2:30 AM
"Would you look at this place?" Alexander whistlers.
Looking around he can see where the repeated freeze and thaw have morphed the thin salt crust into hexagonal honeycomb shapes.
The salt flats stretch as far as the eye can see surrounded by cliffs and large pools filled with undrinkable salt water. It isn't the sort of place where most people would come willingly, but some do.
"So why the hell are we here?" Freddie growls
Alexa looks at him with an annoyed expression and tells him plainly
"This is where HE is.. The secret keeper he holds the key to where the crystal containing my powers is. And we are going to get that information then we will be one step closer to my return to glory. And oh how I have missed it. Living life as a mortal being is fucking boring. You can't begin to imagine.
Let's go."
The trio track across the treacherous salt flats for what seems like an hour before they come to a pool that looks no different than the others and they stand in front of it.
"This is it. We have to go through here"
"What?" Alexander exclaims somewhat confused by this.
"Trust me. Just jump in."
She leaps in with a splash and disappears beneath the water and seconds later the Shaw's join her
The water swirls and rushes around them spinning in a blur before they land with a thump on the floor on a big cave. The cave is vast and expansive with stalactites and stalagmites aplenty.
"What in the fuck? How the hell did we get here? And more to the point where exactly is here?"
Alexander isn't quite sure what's going on. Usually calm and collected he is a bit ruffled by the goings on and isn't amused that Alexa didn't tell him what the plan was.
"Here.... Is the Cave Of Wisdom home to the Secret Keeper. The one individual who keeps both the secrets of Heaven and Hell under lock and key. No mortal knows of this place but then again I'm no mortal." Alexa explains
"For millennia this place has existed undisturbed and invisible to all but those who know where it is. And trust me when I say that list is microscopically short
But that's enough time wasted blabbing we need to get a move on."
But first we need some light. She walks over to the nearby wall and grabs a pitch covered torch and lights it before walking ahead followed closely by the Shaw's.
The deeper they go the darker and more dank it becomes until they finally reach the main chamber.
A huge cavern lit by many torches it isn't exactly awe inspiring save for the large statue that stands against the far wall.
A golden Bhodi Tree towers toward the ceiling spreading it's branches like a spiders web. It is a magnificent sight.
Stepping forward they approach the tree but before they can reach it there is an almighty flash followed by a powerful gust that blows them back like leaves in the wind. Shocked and stunned Alexa and her cohorts stumble back to their feet and scan around to see what happened.
Suddenly a robed figure appears before them and they cautiously approach.
"You shouldn't be here Alexandra Black. Your wicked presence defiles this place.
I know what you seek and you will not have it. Your power was taken from you with good reason and I have been told to stop you where you stand should you seek to continue on your quest."
The voice is not one Alexa was expecting and she is taken aback.
"Wait a minute..the secret keeper is...
The robed figure removes her hood and a swirl of flame red hair frames the slender face of a woman whose emerald green eyes stare directly at Alexa who stares back.
"Yes. She is a woman just like you." The soft but firm voice finishes her sentence. "I am Razi. The secret keeper for the past century. And the one who will stop you."
"That is irrelevant. I will have what I want and I will do whatever it take to get it."
Alexa steps forward menacingly but the robed lady simply waves get hand and sends them flying again.
"YOU WILL NOT WIN!" The voice is now booming and echoing through the cave.
Razi grabs Alexa by the throat and lifts her off the ground in a shocking display of strength.
Raising her hand it becomes a brilliant white ball of energy swirling and crackling as she brings it closer to Alexa. But before she can strike the fatal blow a flash of silver a scream and then silence.
Looking down Razi sees a huge blade with sigils on it impaled through her chest.
With a gasp her chest becomes crimson and then pools around her feet.
"Luckily for me I didn't come alone. Sucks to be you bitch!"
Alexa pushes the fallen Razi away and she crumples to the ground lifeless.
"I knew this would come in handy."
Alexander smiles happily and wipes the bloody blade on the secret keepers robe.
"And this is mine!"
Alexa grabs the key around Razi's neck triumphantly and puts it around her own.
"Oh I forgot to mention I got your match details from management.
Your match is against Crazy Boy for your North American Championship." Alexander informs Alexa.
"Him? What's to say? I'm not going to go over the history because that's past and doesn't matter. All that matters is that I'm going in champion and I'm leaving champion.
And nothing that miserable little peon can do will change that. My power has been growing within PCW and soon I will be unstoppable.That championship says I am the best wrestler in North America
That's where you and I are opposites Tyrone. You have everything to gain and nothing to loose. I have something to loose and nothing to gain except making you suffer once again and giving you a humiliating defeat.
But that works out ok for me...
Enjoy your time you have. Because come Sunday I have nothing but deadly intentions."
She turns and walks away followed by the Shaw's back out of the cave and the camera goes black.
