Nervously, Alex opened the door to the locker room and called in.
Alex: Chewie's coming in first!
Alex then let Chewie crawl through the partially-opened door. She figured that things would be less likely to kick off of Chewie was present. Alex then walked in the locker room, Mackenzie Roberts in tow, as Nyako, Oni, SoLo and Maleek, sat around in chairs.
Alex: Congratulations Oni, Nyako.
Alex then sat down on the chair left vacant for her, as Mackenzie took the next seat. Alex then lets out a deep breath.
Alex: Okay...I believe some of you have something to say concerning me and Mackenzie. Lets hear it.

My leg was killing me from the brutal match against Roberts, but I did my best not to show how badly she had hurt me. The truth of the matter was that Roberts was a whisper away from beating me…had the referee not gone down, there is no telling how this would have all ended…
…I hope that you aren’t seriously considering to pretend that was an accident are you; you saw that you were in trouble and you intentionally knocked that referee down…not that I am complaining…just saying, don’t lie to yourself…
Was I lying? Did I really do that on purpose? Maybe…I can’t even say for certain, but there was time enough to reflect on all of that later. Yin had summoned us all here for another purpose, and it was a welcome distraction from my inner thoughts and the pain that rifled through my leg.
“Yin…” I paused, finally feeling comfortable enough with the girl to call her by her first name… “…Alex, look…I am the queen of bad relationships. I don’t think that I have ever had a good one…but I recognize a dysfunctional one when I see it!” I glared at Mackenzie, “This…BITCH…is not the person you need to be associating with! She’s a user and a cheat!” I looked back at Alex, “If you don’t stay away from her…you WILL get hurt! I know that it’s your life and you have to live it…but I’m your friend and I can’t stand by and watch you make a rotten choice!”
I fixed my eyes back on Mackenzie, “It’s a know fact…laying down with dogs will surely get you fleas…and Roberts is one of the biggest bloodsuckers in LAW!”
Alex closes her eyes as she considers Oni's words. Alex knew that as harsh as it was, what Oni was saying was because she cared. The thing was, Alex was fairly receptive to the idea that her "sisters" probably did care about her more than Mackenzie did, but there were far more complicated things at play here.
Alex: Oni, thank you for looking out for me. I mean it. Thank you. But staying away from Mackenzie will get me hurt too. Since we...got together...I've seen another side to Mackenzie.
Alex winces slightly at her words. She was guessing that Mackenzie, not one to show a vulnerable side, was probably glaring at her...or probably trying really hard not to.
Alex: She often makes bad choices, and I'm the last one to condone them, but deep down they're coming not from malice or greed...but insecurity. Mackenzie gets her shots in first because she feels that if she doesn't care about anyone, no one can hurt her. You've seen Mackenzie around, fought her in the ring, watched her promos...but I've spend actual time with her. Not going to lie...there's a possibility that you are right.
Alex turns to Mackenzie and squeezes her shoulder reassuringly. They may not have been the most loving words (frankly, Mackenzie could've stormed off) but Alex needed to show that she knew what she was doing and that she wasn't just being overly-sentimental. Something that Maclenzie would probably appreciate just as much if not more than her "sisters".
Alex: But if I can't be with her, I will be hurt. I mean that. It already tears me apart that we can't all see eye-to-eye on this. But when I look at Mackenzie...I feel reassured. I know I'm a naive person, but I don't give up and you girls all know that.
Alex then turns and looks at Mackenzie as she talks.
Alex: On New Year's Eve we met for drinks....not a date, just drinks. That night, I told her that no matter how she felt about me, I was going to be her friend. I told her that because it's true. I can't brush people off. I've tried it, I can't. Even if it's for my own good. Mackenzie isn't some lost soul to be saved, but she's someone who likes me. And if she can like, the slushy, goofy, nerdy dork that I am, surely that's something.
Alex then turns and looks at Oni.
Alex: And what I said to Mackenzie applies to you all. I don't know how this is going to go down, but regardless, I wil ALWAYS have your backs.

As Raheem sat there listening to what Oni and then Alex had to say, he couldn’t help but to be taken by how much this all seemed like what was going on between him and Nyako. He wasn’t one to easily catch feelings…but he knew that he had it bad this time. Crystal had come at him with the full course press this past weekend…and he had managed to say no to her. He never said no…EVER! Especially to Crystal…a woman he had been with for years before and had even considered making it official with. He still loved Crystal…but he knew that the both of them loved themselves more. I wouldn’t last between them…that was just the way it went.
He turned and looked at Alex and Mackenzie. He still didn’t care for the way that she treated Alex, but at the end of the day, who was he to step in on her behalf. He was no better than Mackenzie…and that was saying a lot.
Raheem sighed as he spoke up. “Look…I know yall’ aint really tryin’ to hear what I got to say on this, but since Alex asked me to speak on it…I’m gonna do just that. First thang, I don’t like it…I don’t think Mack gives a fuck bout’ you. You can do a lot better…but maybe there is somethin’ here that none of th’ rest of us see.”
He paused, thinking of his relationship with Nyako…if you could call it that. “Look…I am just sayin’ that maybe…sometimes, th’ people you don’t expect end up bein’ th’ people you are happy wit’.” He glanced over at Nyako, but quickly looked away to prevent anyone from suspecting that they were together. “Runnin’ round’ hidin’ and shit probably aint’ th’ best thang for yall. If this is what you want Alex…no one here can stop you…” he looked at Mackenzie, “…but Mack…if you are really gonna be wit’ our girl…you need to stop fuckin’ around. Stop treatin’ her like shit and own up to it! No good can come from you actin’ like you don’t care…if you really do.”
He sat back, hazarding another glance in Nyako’s direction. He hoped that she got his meaning. While what he said applied to Alex and Mackenzie, it was really all about him and Nyako. He had strong feelings for her and they scared him at first, but now he was ready to tell her how he felt…this way was easier…especially if she didn’t feel the same way.
Nyako noticed Maleek stealing glances in her direction as he stated his stance on the issue of not only Alex and Mackenzie but also between him and her. She didn’t know how to feel about what he said. Part of her thought it was a big mistake even starting to get involved with him, but part of it was like Yin, you can’t help how you feel.
Nyako cleared her throat, getting everyone’s attention. “I’m not going to pretend I don’t think this is something that can bite you in the ass sooner or later, but it’s your life and I have no say in it. I’ve made my thoughts on the matter clear before and I stand by what I said, if Roberts hurts you in anyway I will end her. Point blank. I don’t trust her and I think she’s just using you until she gets bored. She proved in her last two matches she will do what ever it takes to get what she wants no matter what effect if might have on those that are in her corner.”
Nyako shot a quick glance at Maleek before looking at Yin and Roberts. “She knows of the relationship you have with us yet she still was willing to to be underhanded and cheat to win tonight. Tell me if that’s a person worth fighting for. I don’t think she’s insecure in the slightest. I think she’s a sociopath who knows how to play people to get what they want and damn anyone who gets in her way.”
Nyako looked in Maleek’s direction. “Maybe she can prove us all wrong and prove that she really does care about you, but I haven’t seen any evidence of it yet. Maybe you can melt that tough exterior of her and break down that wall she put up to keep everyone at a distance, but I won’t hold my breath. It’s hard for a leopard o shange it’s spots might not be impossible but close to it.”
Nyako looked Back to Yin. She had hoped she got her point across to Maleek. It wasn’t that she didn’t think he couldn’t change but it was hard to believe he would, even for her. His rep had been built over a long period of time and even when it seemed he was ‘trying’ to be someone else he always went back to who he really was. Why would he be any different with her. She wanted to shield herself before she got hurt.
“But like I said, I won’t stop you from making your choice on what to do. I’m not the one starting a relationship with her. I just hope you realize you got people who care for you deeply and don’t want to see you get hurt. I hope if I was ever in the same predicament I have people I know were trying to look out for my best interest too but let me stumble on my own also. 'Love who you love' like the saying goes.”

I stared at everyone sitting there, wondering if I was the only person who was sane…well…with the exception of Roberts, who had remained silent. The sad thing was that she was probably the only other person here with some common sense. I looked at each of them in turn. “WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!” Everyone seemed shocked by my outburst, except for Roberts. Her mocking grin made my blood boil.
“I can’t be the only one who has seen what a dirty, rotten cheat she is!” I stared at Nyako and then at Alex. “This piece of shit came to jail to mock me! Who does that?!” I wasn’t sure if they knew it or not, but I was happy to blow up her spot if they didn’t. “Allying herself with Steele…screwing over Camacho…trying to screw me?! Wake up people…once a dog…” this time I looked at Raheem, just so he knew that I was talking about him as well. “…always a fucking dog!”
I turned back to Alex, “I love you…but I am NOT going to stand by and watch this bullshit go down! You are chasing after a cheap trill…I just got done with that and look what it got me!! Learn from my mistakes instead of making more of them yourself!”
I turned my wrath on Raheem, “As for you…I have NO idea what you are doing here! You aren’t a friend to anyone here but your fucking self! You need to run back to CTN and see how much of yourself you can finish stuffing up VanReardon’s ass!” I got up, glaring at him, “YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS HERE NEAR MY SISTERS…NONE AT ALL!!”
“Kymiku!” Nyako yelled as she jumped out of her seat trying to bar her sister from doing something rash.
Her words struck a chord inside of Nyako and almost echoed the same things she herself was thinking. At the same time she also felt she was in the same situation Alex was in. Catching feelings for a person you know is more than likely not good for you but still drawn to them anyway, despite how it would make others feel. As much as she wanted to tell Oni about Maleek now wasn’t the best time to deal with that, especially since it seemed her sister was on the warpath of not only wanting to hurt Roberts, but also seemed ready to gun for Maleek too.
She put a hand on her sister’s shoulder to try to calm her down somewhat. “This isn’t about Maleek, this is about Yin and Roberts and he has as much right to this conversation as any of us despite what you think. He has a bond with Alex just like the rest of us do and has her best interest at hand.”
She looked over in his direction, still with a reassuring hand on her sister’s shoulder. “We both read her the riot acted a while ago and told her our thoughts on how bad of a mistake this was, but just as true to form as a sister of USA she’s stubborn and wants to decide on her own.”
She looked back at Oni. “I’m not happy about any of this. I know what Roberts is and capable of. I’ve seen all the shady things she’s done. If I had known about the stunt she played when you were in police custody I’d be in jail right now for murder cause I would have ended the bitch.” She shot a glare at Roberts.
Again she returned her focus back to her sister. “But we can’t dictate what Alex does. We can only be there for her. We all let her know how we feel about this ‘relationship’ she’s determined to have wit that snake in the grass but she also knows none of us, not me, not you, not Song, not even Maleek are going to stand idly by and watch Roberts hurt her in any way.”
Nyako walked over to Roberts and could feel the tension rise in the room. She got right into the woman’s face to make her point clear. “Make no mistake, if Alex wasn’t here right now, I would put your ass six feet under right now. That shit you pulled at the police Station, and the shit you tried to pull tonight with your buddies Drew and Steele? You do not fuck with what’s mine bitch. That means Song, Alex and Oni. If I even catch you looking cross eyed at anyone of them I won’t hesitate to beat that shit eating smirk off your face.”
Nyako took a step back from Roberts, seeing the woman seemed unfazed but her comment. “I know you’ll just brush what I said off and not take it for what it’s worth. But that’s your mistake. In the end you cross me and you’ll see how real it is.”
Seeing the fire lit in my sister fueled my rage even more. The smugness and the silence from Roberts was infuriating. I knew that Yin cared for her, but if this is the way that things were going to go, so be it…I’d make thing plain for everyone here, by splitting her face in two…
…now you’re talking; its about time you woke up…
Alex was going to hate me for knocking Roberts’ teeth down her throat, but she’d thank me later when she saw that little troll for what she was. I let my anger guide me and I moved to go after Roberts, brushing my sister’s hand away. “I’M GOING TO END THIS RIGHT NOW!” Before I could reach her, she got the last laugh, yet again. Pain rocketed through my left leg and it gave out completely. I hit the floor, and despite my desire not to show how much damage Roberts had actually done to me, I grabbed at my injured leg.
Raheem was up and beside me so quickly that I hardly had time to process it as he tried to help me up. I whirled on him, punching him right in the face. “DON’T YOU TOUCH ME, BASTARD!! I DON’T KNOW WHERE YOUR FILTHY HANDS HAVE BEEN!”
He let me go as he wiped at the trickle of blood running from his busted lip. I knew he was just trying to help me, but I didn’t want his help…I knew that there was always a cost with dealing with CTN and it’s employees. I glared at him in a rage, “You stay away from me…you stay away from my sisters! WE DON’T WANT YOU AROUND US…DO YOU HERE ME?!!”
Raheem looked at me and then Alex and Nyako. Finally, he held up his hands and walked out. That was one problem solved, I turned to Roberts as I pulled myself up to my feet, “AND YOU!!”
Alex and Nyako had their hands on me, even as my leg gave way again and I started to fall.
Alex struggled and was partly rather thankfful that Nyako was around. Oni may not be quicker than Alex, but she was certainly a hell of a lot stronger.
"Oni! Please!" Alex grunted, tears running down her face. She predicted it would go badly, but this was beyond even Alex's worst predictions. Seeing Chewie scramble around, having no idea what was happening, Alex reached for the chinchilla to try and protect him, in that split second not thinking about Oni's strong and flailing arm that she was holding on to.
WHAM!
Alex collided full force with one of the benches, the mere couple of inches of distance that she travelled did more harm than good.
Alex: Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!
The cry was almost deafening as Alex held her back that in only a couple of seconds had started to bruise very badly. In a rare moment of incidental unity, Oni, Nyako and Mackenzie cautiously approached Alex with concern as she now sobbed and cried with pain.

‘What did I just do?’ I rushed to Alex’s side, as best as I could with my injured leg…
…this isn’t your fault, this is Mackenzie’s fault…look at the shit eating look on her face…you should knock it off…
I bared my teeth like a wild animal as I went after Roberts, intent on getting my hands around her neck. “BITCH!! LOOK WHAT YOU DID!! I’M GOING TO RIP YOUR GODDAMN HEAD OFF!!" I dove for Roberts, but Nyako was fast and she caught me before I could get my hands on Roberts. I knew that she wasn’t saving Roberts so much as she was saving Alex and everyone else from my actions.
I stumbled back, instantly ashamed of myself for what I had just done. I had blamed Roberts, but I was the one who had turned her well-intentioned meeting into a free-for-all. I ran my fingers through my hair as I watched Roberts and Nyako tend to Alex.
Seeing Chewie running around frantically, I bent down and picked him up… “OUCH!!!” I screamed as Chewie bit down hard on my hand, prompting me to drop him as I felt back, holding my hand. I watched as Chewie scurried around in a panic…which was one of my own making…
…it’s just a stupid rat, what does it know; you did the right thing, Alex and Nyako will realize it soon enough…
I backed out of the room, watching the scene that I had caused as I ran my hands down the sides of my face. I backed up until I ran right into someone standing behind me, I turned and found myself face to face with Nicky Silver.
She eyed me with suspicion and then looked into the room. She whirled on me, anger blazing in her eyes. “WHAT HAVE YOU DONE THIS TIME? WHOELSE HAVE YOU HURT?!!”
I shook my head, backing away from her, as she continued to follow me, still screaming at me. I turned and limped off…not sure of where I was going, but I had to get away from this place before I did hurt someone else. Throngs of people were around, some reaching out to congratulate me on winning the title, but I pushed my way through them…not wanting to stop. I just needed to find SoLo and get out of here before I did something else that I would regret.
