Following the second episode of 'The Hot Seat' featuring Nyako, Trisha VanReardon strolled through the halls of CTN with a broad smile across her face. She was enormously pleased with herself after the new Marquee Champion stormed off the show. This show was sure to garner her ratings through controversy and she loved both of those things. Who would be next in line to sit in 'The Hot Seat' and who would be up to the challenge? There was so much to do…so many plans to make. Her show had scored two ratings successes and she was eager to continue.
Trisha smiled broadly as she saw Nyako’s manager, Syn heading her way. She stopped and held her arms out. “Well! Are you coming here to congratulate me? I know that y…”
Before she could finish, her field of vision exploded into a bright flash of stars. Her head whipped violently to the side and her cheeks burned from the incredibly hard slap she received. Trisha staggered back, holding her face in a mixture of shock and rage. Her bew bodyguard, Afrikka rushed over to intervene, but Trisha grabbed the large black woman and gestured for her to stand down.
Trisha narrowed her eyes, “YOU CRAZY BITCH!! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING?!!”
I stood there fuming over the hatchet job she had done to Nyako during her ‘Hot Seat’ appearance. I was proud of the fact Nyako didn’t sink to the level that I’m sure Trisha was hoping she would so she could brag that she got both Shinsuzuki sisters to show their true colors. I know there were plenty of times during the interview if that’s what you want to call it, that Nyako wanted to get her hands on VanReardon, but she practice restraint and did not sink to her level. Sadly though I couldn’t follow the same advice I had given my client.
My hand stung from my slap but the pain was a welcomed trade off for the action. I stared hotly at Trisha, not giving her massive bodyguard any mind as I knew Boris wasn’t far behind me just in case things got hairy. I wanted to tear the little witch limb from limb for what she did and especially with that last questioned she pulled. I do not know where she got that information from but I sure as hell was willing to beat it out of her to find out. I may not be much of a fighter myself but I could be as nasty as the best of them when motivated.
“I do not what makes you think you have the right to invade people’s personal issues and bring them to a public forum VanReardon but what you did tonight crossed a line. I thought what you did with Kymiku Shinsuzuki was bad enough but seeing as she isn’t my client, I had no standing in telling you off. When you go after one of my own, especially when they are signed to the same company you work for. That’s just asking for repercussions.”
I notice her bodyguard tense up as Boris stops behind me. “Ms. Syn, is there a problem here?” He asks as I’m sure as he is taking measure of the Amazon. He would never strike a woman but at the same time he wouldn’t let anything happen to me either.
“Yes, I’m trying to figure out what gives VanReardon the right to assassinate my client and dig up personal trauma about her also.” I stare at her intently. “Who told you about these things?” I have my suspicions but I needed confirmation, although I was sure Trisha would do her damnedest to keep her source close to the vest.

Trisha pulled her hand away from her burning cheek, even as her blue eyes blazed with anger. She stepped right up to Syn, getting right in the woman’s face to show that she had no fear as well. She wasn’t a fighter at all…but she had the full force of CTN Corporate behind her…one high-powered executive in particular that would have been happy to crucify Syn.
“Look here…I was kind enough to warn you before I broke the story on Oni. That was professional courtesy! Maybe you think that you and your client are so special that I have to clear EVERYTHING with you…but I don’t! I was being nice out there tonight…trust me…I know enough dirt to make your little carpet rat want to strangle her delinquent sister!”
Seeing the look on Syn’s face brought a smile to Trisha’s. “Yeah…you’d love to know what I know and how I know it…but I don’t reveal my sources to ANYONE! You might think I don’t have a code of ethics…but I do…BITCH!”
“Ethics my ass. You’re a gun for hire just like Freakzilla there.” I say nodding in Affrika’s direction, feeling her glowering at me but I go on. “Only difference is you do it with words and what you pass off as journalism, while she just beats people.”
I step back a bit, not liking the fact Trisha got up in my face like she did. “I’m pretty sure not all the execs are happy with what you are doing. I’m pretty sure they all aren’t keen on the fact you trying to bury the horse they through CTN backing behind. I’m sure if I went to Cat she’d have something to say about this. Shut down you and your puppeteer.”
As I said, I had a feeling of who was behind this and was curious how they got the information. I couldn’t be for certain though. I had to dig deeper to see if I could make her spill or reveal her hand. Maybe the threat of Catherine getting involved may make her slip. I know she wasn’t easily intimidated but everyone had someone they were afraid of. Plus this would also tell me if my hunch was wrong and it was someone like Cat who approved of this tact.

Trisha didn’t appreciate the fact that Syn had threatened to sic Cat on her…but it only showed how serious she was if she was willing to get a co-owner involved. It unsettled me…but only a little, Cat might have gotten pissed, but Cat knew about business and ‘The Hot Seat’ was making money right now…she might have moral qualms over the way Trisha did business, but the bottom line is what mattered.
Trisha smirked, “You wanna run off and tell Mommy on me? GO AHEAD! Just know this…if I don’t get fired, you are going to beg to quit when I am done with you and your client!”
Trisha stood back, smoothing her attire. “You think I am the enemy…but I am not…I made people interested in your boring ass client! Raheem has people wanting to pin pictures of her on their walls…this all means success and money for everyone, but instead of doing your goddamn job and capitalizing on it…you are here getting in my face, trying to be a white fucking knight!”
Trisha narrowed her eyes at Syn. “Are the two of you scissoring each other after hours?! Is that why you are suddenly so protective?!”
Before I can smack her again Boris gets between us, to stop what I was about to do. I stare daggers at him. “WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!” I yell at his hulking mass standing before me, blocking my path toward Trisha.
“I’m saving you from doing something you will regret Ms. Syn.” He says o me in his think Russian accent.
I look around him still fuming from him getting in the way but also relieved as both Trisha and Afrikka look willing and able to throw down this time. I look back at him. “You are damn lucky good drivers are hard to find Boris or you would be collecting your last paycheck soon.” I tried to hide my relief for his interjection, but I know he can tell he saved me from making a massive mistake.
He placates me and steps aside once he is sure I will not jump on Trisha and I turn my focus back on her. “Your mouth will get you in a world of trouble VanReardon. You keep threatening people with lawsuits if they attack you, at until you mouth off to the wrong person who either won’t care or sues you for slander.” I try to calm down a bit as I try to get a more business tone in my voice. “I’m not doing anything of a sexual nature with my client. What I am doing is sticking up for her when people like you are trying to assassinate her character. You say this is bringing her the spotlight and getting her name out there, you also try to claim this is the same thing Maleek is doing? I beg to differ. My client want the facts about her known, not what you try to portray as the facts according to you. She wants the respect of her competitors and for them to thin she’ll stab them in the back when their backs are turned. She and her sister are doing everything to repair the image that had been tarnished in the past but you are doing everything in your power to counteract that. It’s one thing for that delusional, egotistical, self-centered, self appointed protector, Evelyn Taylor to do something like that. But for someone who is supposed to be on her side or at least claims to be fair? Yes Maleek has made her show a side of her that she may not have wanted to in the past but has grudgingly embraced, but you are determined to make her show one she doesn’t want to see the light of day at all.”

Trisha smirked at Syn. “What happened to you? You’re like a tiger with no teeth or claws. The Syn I knew wasn’t caught up with touchy feely bullshit! She built empires for CTN…” she looked the woman up and down, “…I don’t even recognize who you are!”
Trisha sighed, “Such a loss to the cause…but make no mistake, I’ll still do my part.” She grinned, “And as for my sources…how I know what I know…that is for me to know and you to find out!” Trisha laughed, “But you won’t!”
Trisha brushed past Syn, and glanced up at Boris, winking at the mountain of a man. “You’re too cute to be keeping company with the likes of her…you need to think about the future. CTN is a dog eat dog company…”
She didn’t wait for a response, just continued walking…ignoring the office workers that stuck their heads out of their doors.
I watched as she and her bodyguard walk away smug. I know she thought I lost a step as I’m sure most of those in CTN felt I have, but unlike them I evolved. I haven’t forgotten my roots of using those around me to get ahead, but I have learned that I won’t sacrifice thpse I’m supposed to be helping to do so because as fun as it may b on the way up. IT sure as hell will end badly on the way back down.
“Boris, I have a new job for you among your other responsibilities.” I say to him as I watch Trisha disappear.
“What is it Ms. Syn?”
“Find out who her source is. I think it will be in our best interest if it dries up quickly and soon. I want to wipe that smug look of that tarts face and also send a message to whomever is backing her.” She thought the bitch in me was gone and replaced by a soft heart? No, fact of the matter the bitch decided to change the game and just decided to switch the focus. The tiger just changed her stripes and VanReardon and who master will see soon enough.
