With sunglasses covering a large portion of her face and wearing a grey woolen cap, Alex Yin walked into the arena ahead of Queen Of The Ring rather distracted. No this wasn't the kind of distraction she experienced passing the window of a bakery or ironing whilst watching Labyrinth (which on four occasions has cost her a shirt) but actually a rather sad kind of distracted.
Perhaps even more conspicuous than Alex's down mood was the presence of a man at her side. Like Alex he was East-Asian in appearance, but at least a foot taller than her, with a slightly tanned complexion, square physique and expertly-styled hair, dressed in a stylish black suit with a turquoise tie. After a moment, the man turns to look at Alex.
Man: Alex-chan, I'm not quite sure why you need me here.
Alex: I told you, Junichiro. I need you for support. Bad things may go down, I consider you just an insurance policy.
Junichiro: If it's outside my father's territory this could get very risky. This Kymiku, does he have any real power in America?
Alex: Well, I don't really know. It's more the power over my friend I have trouble with. There's not going to be a gang war, I'd just like to meet with either Oni or Senji and try and get this settled. No violence.
Junichiro: Dating the son of a Yakuza boss hardly seems-
Alex: I was this close to dating, Ken, Junichiro. Y'know, all he wanted to do was work in his car wash.
Junichiro: Ken is far more involved in our business than you might think.
Alex: Didn't seem that way to me.
Junichiro: He's my brother, Alex-chan. Trust me. Still, if I am to be your bodyguard-

I walked into the arena, filled with purpose. I was ready for this fight…not match, but a fight! I had been completely focused on nothing but getting in the ring and winning back the LAW Championship…not so I could become a leader…but so I could become a tyrant!
As soon as I laid eyes on Alex, my thoughts turned to a nightmare I had earlier in the week. Alex, dear sweet Alex, was shot full of holes and left to bleed out on the carpet of my brother’s Great Room. My stomach turned at the thought, and I squeezed my eyes shut tight against the vision.
Truly I was happy to see her, but right now I needed to be focused on battle. I waved at her, only then noticing the man by her side. The hackles raised on the back of my neck, as it always was when we saw a rival clan. I stopped, staring at him, then to Alex. “Alex? Who is this?” Every muscle in my body was tensed and coiled, ready to strike…if this was some kind of Yakuza assassination attempt.
Looking at Alex, I gave a shake of my head. “It’s generally not the first thing mentioned…” I didn’t know what I found more surprising…that Alex had such familiarity with the Yakuza or that she had once dated men…both were actually mind-numbing. I gave Junichiro the slightest of bows, giving the Boss his deserved respect.
I turned back to Alex. “I don’t think you’ll be needing a bodyguard tonight…at least, not from me. That honor would be reserved for our Champion.
I dropped my bag as I gave Alex my full attention, despite my irritation at the distraction from what I had made my singular mission for tonight…spoil the night for everyone in the arena and everyone watching around the world. Alex was one of only three people that I would even consider making such a concession for. “What’s this all about?”
(OOC: Yes, Alex dates men. She's somewhere between bisexual and just...undefined. She's actually dating a guy in UXW, atm.)
Alex: What has the last couple of months been about, Oni? Senji! I'm determined to get to the bottom of this. I didn't exactly live in one of the nicer areas of Tokyo and the Yakuza had a lot of power in that section. You know how the Yakuza can be all "don't mess with us and we won't mess with you?" It's like that. But I was never involved with anything. Junichiro's nephew was a student of mine.
For a moment, Alex laughs and genuinely smiles.
Alex: I was an English teacher, Oni. Do you really see me getting directly associated with organised crime?
Alex's smile then vanishes as she bites her lip.
Alex: Not that...there's anything wrong with that...Oni. Or maybe there is...it's-it's a hard life...I'm gonna shut up.
I ran my fingers through my hair, really not wanting to deal with this right now. In a few hours I was stepping into the ring with the LAW Champion and if I was going to avoid a repeat of Validation, I was going to need complete and total concentration. I tried to keep any signs of irritation out of my voice, but I knew that a bit seeped through. Alex…now isn’t a good time. I know you really want to get to the bottom of this…but trust me when I say this…this is not something that is going to resolve itself in just a few minutes!” I walk over and put my hand on her shoulder. “We are going to resolve this together…the four of us; you, me, Song, and Ny. That is what we agreed on…but it happens AFTER Queen of the Ring!”
Alex didn’t know that I had brought us a few more days time…so it was understandable that she was chomping at the bit to get to the bottom things. “My brother is under the impression that the four of us will be coming to join him following QOTR.”

I shrugged, not really knowing the answer. I had told him what he wanted to hear and baited him with the promise of having four women at his beck and call. I smiled deviously at Alex, “Honestly…I have no idea, but if he seems on the fence about things…all you have to do is sleep with him. It’s always worked for me.”
I knew that I shouldn't have said it, especially in front of Junichiro Masushita. News like that could cause my brother to lose face, where his adversaries were concerned. With all-out war between rival families on the horizon in Japan, this was a dangerous time. My brother would be eager to show strength, but that no longer concerned me. After QOTR, I would deal with that little problem, once and for all.
I continued to grin sheepishly at her, “Sound like a plan to you?” I said, half joking…but only just barely.

I called after her, as she ran away, “DON’T BOTHER BRINGING CONDOMS…HE DOESN’T USE THEM!!”
I cocked my head to the side, watching her backside with a shake of my head. I sighed, speaking to myself. “He’d love you Alex…he always liked a girl with junk in the trunk.”
I slung my bag back over my shoulder. I knew that I should have felt bad, but this was for Alex’s own good…as well as my own. I needed to focus on regaining the LAW Championship…nothing else mattered until the final bell rang. After that, we would deal with the Senji situation.
