Scene fades in on Mindy De Santiago wearing a black baby tee and some jeans standing in front of a camera; recording her as is indicated by the red blinking record light.
“I didn't except to be where I am at today but here I am in my very first L.A.W. Match and I am gonna make the most of it you can bet on that. I may not the tallest nor the meanest but I have the heart no one has. I am willing to risk it all for just one night and this fatal four-way match may not be up my alley, but I am gonna give my all.”
Sighing a bit as Mindy knows it's gonna be a fight and even though she enjoys wrestling she don't like fighting much but she won't backdown for anything or anyone.
“You know...Ummm... I am kinda nervous as heck about this match!! I mean anything can happen and I could lose even if I am not pinned, unless it's elimination then oh, joy! No seriously I am facing Alexis Blake, Orchid, and Kayla Winters. Wow!! That was a mouth full there.”
Mindy says with a nervous chuckle as she stares at the camera blinking her soft brown eyes softly.
“I wanna say thank you to you three ladies. Why? Because you are facing me in my very first L.A.W. Match. I know...I know that is unheard of these days for an opponent to thank their opponent but that's me. I am thank anyone that gives me an opportunity. As I know you three could've just brushed me off and refused to face me but you didn't. No, you choose to accept me as part of the roster and hence why I thank you. “
Mindy has a habit of overthinking and over-explaining things. Mindy's whole thin is she just wants to be accepted and not upset anyone. She knows wrestling is a cut throat business but why can't people be nice and respectful? After all it's all in the spirit of competition; right?
“Now, don't mistake my niceness as a sign of weakness ladies because I am not weak. No,wait I am but I am not..Urghh...you know what I mean? Darn it!! **Stomps her foot** Sorry I got a little carried away. Look, I am just gonna do the best I can do out there at Validation and at the end of the match I will have validated myself as a true competitor of L.A.W. and you three will move on to bigger and better things and I wish you all the best. No, truly I do.”
Mindy smiled as she walked over to a black sofa and sat down crossing her right keg over her left one as she interlaced her hands and placed them on her knee.
“Now, I addressed everyone as a whole but that's not enough. No, I need to address each lady and tell them how I feel or atleast try to. No, I am not gonna flip and start cursing them out. No, I am gonna just address them in a sporting manor. Who should I start with first?”
Mindy places her right index finger to her chin as she tilts her head slightly. Before she sighs and then answers her own question.
“I am gonna start with Orichd. You have accomplished a lot outside of wrestling and you seem to beable to adapt no matter the situation but is that really true? I mean if you have spent your whole life studying Kung Fu how can you adapt to wrestling? Are you some kinda of magical person that no matter what fighting style you just adapt because you're an adapter? Honestly I think what you have done in your profile is blown it up so that it seems you have no weaknesses; but the fact of the matter is we all have weaknesses. That's what keeps us balanced and you of all people should understand about balance. You know Ying and Yang? I can't believe L.A.W. hired you when nothing you put in your profile is realistic. I dunno what to even say about you as you seem like a liar and yes I said that. Sorry not sorry for saying that, but I live in a world we call reality and you seem to live in some fantasy world of Orchid is the best no matter what and no one can beat her. Heck, you even said heavier people you'll use your ground game. Thing is you can be versed in anything you wanna say but in that ring you are just another opponent and you better start studying whom the heck you are facing because you won't last two second here in L.A.W. if you think you are unbeatable. Don't get me wrong it's good to think that way but come on? You know you can't adapt to everyone and beat them?
The reality is you are a child trapped in a woman's body and honey I am gonna enjoy facing you and proving you wrong. Yes, my mission is to prove to you that you can't adapt to this. ** Unlaces her hands as she points at herself with her right index finger.** I am sorry honey did I bruise your ego? Yeah, cause you have a huge one. I know I am not the best but I try my best and I don't need to pad my stats to look good. I let my actions speak for themselves and one thing you don't have that you can't adapt to or account for is heart. You don't have the heart I have honey and in this fatal four-way you're gonna find out why I am Mindy De Santiago and you are just Orchid.”
Mindy recomposes herself as she got a little too hot under the collar talking about Orchid and now she uncrosses her legs and places her hands on her lap. Smiling at the camera.
“I am sorry but it erks me to o to a wrestling website and see the profiles of people and see unrealistic profiles. If you are so versed in something other then wrestling then why would you become a wrestler? Unrealistic people set me off for real and it upsets me because wrestling is not fake and for them to blatantly try and pass it off that way just...yeah...Sorry but Orchid needs to rethink her status in this business. I know I spent a bit on her but I am sure you guys can understand why? I love this business and for someone to really try and make a mockery of it by pretty much saying they can't be beat is stupid. Anyone and everyone can be beaten. Now moving on to Kayla Winters.”
Mindy says with a smile as she calms herself down. This is something Mindy does every now and then. She gets upset but it's more she is showing her passion for the business.
“Kayla Winters the heirs with the heart of gold. It's nice and refreshing to hear that and I truly hope that you do have a heart of gold but really how far is that gonna get you in this business? I mean really? Will your heart of gold make you better then me? Will it make you the best L.A.W. has ever seen? Nope all it does is mean you give to charities or you are nice to people and I commend that as I am nice to people to but in this ring I am totally different. I turn into a little heartless monster and what that means. Is I will do whatever it takes to get that win and if it means I have to hurt you..then that's exactly what I'll do. I am not afraid of some jacked looking chick who thinks she has what it takes to stand toe-to-toe with me. Wait, you might be able to do that but you sure as heck are gonna know you had a fight when we are done fighting. And yes this is gonna be a fight because I was a bit nervous and honestly I am nervous about our match, but I am confident in what I bring to the table as I clicked last night through L.A.W.'s roster and none of you impress me. Nope, not one bit. I hope you don't take it personal though. Because that would make me sad and you don't wanna make me sad. Why? Because I can get crazy when I am sad. No, actually I just don;t wanna be sad. That would be just plain mean for you to break my heart that way.”
Mindy smiles and then shakes her head as she blinks her eyes softly **SMACKING!!** her lips a bit as she smiles softly.
“I am gonna move on now to Alexis Blake. Whoahhh!!! This chick is a second generation wrestler so maybe I should be shaking in my boots right? I mean after all I can't possibly win against her because I am a first genertaion wrestler and us first gens are not as refined as second generations right? No, wait she wrestled in her parents promotion? Oh, I get it they told everyone to laydown for her to make her think she was good and it got to her head and now she is in L.A.W. running her mouth like she's done something great. Me, I am just Mindy De Santiago a woman that has had to fight and claw for everything she has and never once did I have it handed it to me. Be it a meal, or a match. I didn't have mommy and daddy holding my hand in the ring. No, I have to earn each and every win and loss. That's right folks I earned losses because I gave nothing but best and just on those nights someone was better then me. Honey don;t let my size and the fact I am a first generation wrestler fool ya. I have faced men and beaten them n the past. I have faced monster women and beaten them and on the other hand I have lost to them as well; but I gained their respect. I know I sound disrespectful and for that I apologies.”
Mindy gives a sincere apology to the camera.
“ I am not trying to disrespect what you have done or the fact you are a second generation wrestler. After all that's not your fault your parents paid others to put you over and you can deny it but honey then why say your parents own a small promotion if you didn't start there? You know I can talk all night about how you are this and that but that wouldn't validate me at all. No, what is gonna validate me is when I win our match and that will be the night I get my validation. You might be bigger but there's an old saying the bigger they are the harder they fall. So, get ready Alexis Blake because this little rookie is gonna beat the grizzled veteran and show everyone that she belongs here in L.A.W.”
Mindy blows a kiss to the camera as she leans forward giving the camera a great view of her chest as she turns the record button off and the scene fades out.

Mindy as sitting down on the wooden floor of her training room smiling as she shook her head as she laid back and started doing sit-ups.
“I can't stop training I need to make them proud..... I need to make them both proud... I need to show them I am no a failure...they wrote me off long ago...but I refuse to accept....arghh....cruuuudeee!!!”
Mindy stops as she sits up and drapes her arms over her knees as she catches her breath.
“Why do they not accept me for whom I am? Why do they want me to marry Blake? I don't love him. As a matter of fact I don't like men much at all. I wish they understood that. I wish they understood me better...”
Mindy's eyes starting tearing up a bit as it hurt her for her parents not to accept her for whom she is. Mindy had a rough bring up but about two years ago her parents ran into some money and made the right investments and they started hanging out with the upper class people. This wasn't Mindy's scene and neither was the fact they tried to set her up with more guys then she can count. Lucas was nice but he was too demanding t times and this drove Mindy away from him.
Mindy tried dating guys but it just never seemed to work for her. She didn't understand why? Until she started thinking back when she was much younger. Growing up Mindy always felt she was different and not like all the other girls. Sure she liked the girly stuff but she didn't like boys at all. She preferred girls to be around her and not in the typical fashion. Her first experience with a girl was with Tammy in sixth grade.
Mindy meet Tammy when she went to Garfield Middle school and they became friends rather quickly. After about three months of school Tammy started flirting with Mindy and Mindy flirted back. They did this for about a month and then one day after school Tammy invited Mindy over to her house as usual. And while in her room she kissed Mindy. Mindy sat on the edge of the bed in shock at first and then kissed Tammy back. This led them into a make-out session Mindy wouldn't soon forget.
Over the years Tammy and Mindy became an item and lasted till they graduated high school but then they went their separate ways Mindy's heart was broken and she thought it would never mend but it did. Just not right away.
Mindy smiled as she recalled her past but at the sametime those tears rushed down her face because her parents were not accepting of her. This is what caused Mindy to drink a lot at times and even dabble into drugs at one points. As she sat in the room she started with her sit-ups again. And as she sat-up and then went back down those tears left her. All that remained where the stains upon her cheeks. She kept doing her sit-ups and when she did her last one and sat there that's when she came into the room and all of Mindy's problems seemed to leave her. She looked up at the tall blonde woman in front of her and just smiled.
“I didn't except to be where I am at today but here I am in my very first L.A.W. Match and I am gonna make the most of it you can bet on that.
