“The wrestling business seems to have many angles that play a part in our decision making. For many years, I have entrusted myself to a very select few people, I do not give out my friendship very often, there are some who know me well, others who think. The fact of the matter is, what remains of my intentions are genuine though the forces of the SCW would rather turn them against me, all out of pure hate and jealousy.
When is it going to stop?
How much more of this must we handle? Go through when you know better than anyone that my spot here is now solidified and NO ONE can take that from me, just ask Kennedy Street who even in her little downward spiral is still considered one of the top and the best in the SCW. There are many who think I must surround myself with lemmings, boot-lickers and servants to stroke my ego, tell me I’m gorgeous, take my picture and exploit me to the world that so few like to indulge in as I share my beauty with everyone. You know who I am, there isn’t a single person walking this planet that has NEVER seen my face, body or likeness in the mall, the highway, a magazine, at the airport by the Duty-free Store….
I am everywhere.
This is the reason I have started to understand my role in this company, the modeling industry and most importantly, life itself. I exist to give you an escape. When you look at Cassidy Carter, do you think the same thoughts as me? No, unless you’re an Uber Driver. What about Syren? No, you are disgusted by her antics and lies, the little bit of beauty she had left has been smothered with her grotesque reality. The SCW in the last year has gone through a transformation, Past. Present. Future., were a group that became dominant and spread the message. Now that the Future is already here, the Past couldn’t handle it, the Present is testing my resolve, what I am now is a beacon of hope for I am not on any Drachewych side, I stand on my own with the Beauty Factory.
I am not trying to stir the pot or even garner any sort of sympathy for me, relationships come and go, I have been a slave before, the right people were there to help me become what I am today and now that I have surpassed them all including my two opponents at the “Making Things Right” PPV?
It has become quite apparent…
Jealousy and envy are destroying the ties I had left which still bind to this day.
2018 was my coming out party, the year of the Angel in the SCW. None of you predicted that. So now comes a moment of clarity, standing here in full transparency, with honesty and beauty, to share what you lack, and I promise that this New Year, I will fight for you, I will stand my ground, ascend into the Heavens of the SCW….
And shine my Light as your Greatest World Champion of ALL time at the expense of Syren and Cassidy Carter.”

THE IDES OF AN ANGEL: PART TWO
ON SHAKY GROUND
After finishing a successful 2018 Campaign where Sienna not only was World Champion for the second half of the year, she had also won numerous awards and was recognized as the Female Wrestler of the Year in 2018, it was onward to her biggest challenge in 2019, that beating Syren and Cassidy Carter. There was a Game of Thrones, a war of attrition happening. Sienna and the Beauty Factory had chosen no sides but their own, there was no one representing them like Dark Fantasy or even some of the others in the SCW who Sasha or even Mr. D, endorsed. Sienna was Champion, she didn’t care about being in anyone’s favorite lists, that didn’t matter, for her it was all about being the darling in the public eye, working toward fixing her own image and knowing that she could not be villainized by anyone one she had captured the hearts of the people outside the SCW….
For now, though that was not the case.
Sienna was the target, for months Katya had all intentions to give Syren the rematch she had been begging for a long time. It made Sienna and the Beauty factory laugh at the desperation of this woman and how far she had fallen in the SCW. The talent was always there, that was never the issue, Dark Fantasy had become a shell of itself over the years. Ravyn Taylor and Sienna’s best friend, Regan Street had a match for the Adrenaline Championship, things did not go in Regan’s favor as she had Ravyn beat but Xander Valentine who went to Dark Fantasy instead, leaving The Network decided to lay her out. Earlier in the night of the first Breakdown of 2019, Sienna had worked out a deal to send The Network out to attack none other than Datura and Alexis Quinne, two people that both ladies despised, that didn’t work out as well as Sienna had hoped. Now finding herself in a bit of a pickle, she had drawn the ire of Regan and anyone who did knew that wasn’t going to end pleasantly…
That was not all, after what had happened with Chris Cannon and his son, Christian, all that occurred in 2018 the usually somber Cannon had finally enough, Sienna struck back with the help from Jennifer Helms who unwillingly played along and broke up with the young man to protect him from the wrath of Sienna and the Beauty Factory if things were to get out of control. In the meantime, there was so much going on, Cassidy Carter was added to the World Title match which made Sienna grumble considering she didn’t even believe Carter should have had a match for any title to begin with. But it was just another plot twist in the saga that turning SCW into another season of Days of our Lives.
With Chris Cannon, Owen Cruze and a woman who was still a threat to the World Championship, Kennedy Street and a thorn in the side of The Beauty Factory, things were starting to become a bit muddled and Sienna loved it.
Breakdown
St. Louis, MO.
1.9.19
Sienna was wearing white pleather pants, black knee-high boots and a tight fitting black long sleeve top. Her nails were a glossy coat, long hair was straightened and down. She had the World Title sitting next to her while on the couch, watching the monitor in her dressing room. The Truelove Twins were also there, conversing with LEO, they wore black pants, boots and red halter tops, their hair hung down, nails polished black, LEO was in a black suit, white shirt with no tie. Laura sat next to Sienna in a black suit and red blouse, matching pumps….
It seemed like Sienna was trying to avoid outside contact from her dressing room until the show was over….
Laura: “LEO, watch the door, darling.”
LEO: “Yes, Ms. Steinbeck.”
Laura turned to Sienna who was admiring her nails…
Laura: “Sienna, you realize we can leave, you know? After what has been going on tonight, it is probably best that we do, you never know when anyone would want to take advantage of a situation. Syren is a desperate woman, she knows that her time is up, I would not be surprised if Katya tried anything to gain an advantage in the build up to your title defense.”
Sienna: “So what you’re saying is they think we are stupid?”
Laura: “What do you mean?”
Sienna: “This? It’s easy for people to claim that I am the favorite going in because I’m the World Champion but look what is going on here, Laura. Katya has Dark Fantasy in her back pocket, it is obvious that Sasha has Ace and Cassidy, Mr. D has his favorites wrestling right now, we have no one. There is no support, is this not troubling to you just a little? How this company could suddenly fall into a power struggle between three family members and WE, the Beauty Factory are stuck in the middle?”
Laura: “Darling, I am fully aware of what is happening. This might give them an advantage, yes, it’s also a distraction which benefits us.”
Sienna: “Distraction? You heard Katya, sweetie. The jealousy she has for Kelcey and Kennedy, how Mr. D treated them like daughters, hell sounds like he still does. People try to twist things around, we are starting to see some cracks here Laura. She is starting to lose it all and yet are we the ones that are going to suffer for it? US? We help Regan and suddenly she and I are at odds? After what has been going on the last month? Syren…. I hate her…..I hate her with a passion and I wish she would just disappear like the fossil she is becoming.”
The rage and the frustration were starting to finally show in Sienna. Those feelings were being brought up at the mere sight of Chris Cannon who was wrestling on her monitor. Sienna knew that her title was in jeopardy, a Triple Threat, anything could happen and if she didn’t watch her back, if she didn’t have the right frame of mind walking into “Making Things Right” then she would no longer be the World Champion and they would have to suffer and stomach once again another title reign by Syren or even see someone like Cassidy Carter who would embarrass herself as the World Champion….
Laura: “We can make that happen at the PPV, you walk out as World Champion and the rest is absolute history. You would erase the past which we have claimed. As for Regan, she may be a problem…”
Sienna: “Let’s not forget Carter, Cassidy wants to run her mouth, seek all this attention, I can’t and won’t allow someone like that to wear MY belt, this one I have brought so much pride and prestige to. This is a sad time right now Laura, a very sad time and I cannot see it changing, I just can’t and why would it?”
Laura: “You wouldn’t, we wouldn’t darling.”
Sienna: “You’re right but this entire company is against me, the fans are against me after everything I do for them, I’m the goddamn attraction, ME, not Syren. This is not 2012 anymore. As for Regan, she’s just a hot head that doesn’t listen when she’s upset.”
Laura: “Well, that’s also a problem because of Jennifer (Helms).”
Sienna: “You should have never signed her to a contract, Laura and I told you that! This is adding to it, you know.”
Laura: “She asked me out of her contract.”
Sienna’s eyes widen, slowly turning to Laura….
Sienna: “Wait… what?”
Laura: “She asked me out of the contract, I had in small print a buyout, it’s ten million.”
Sienna: “You are holding her hostage? Silas Mason did that kind of practice and you know how that turned out for him.”
Laura: “Darling, this is an ironclad contract, I didn’t have the kind of things Silas wrote in his. Relax. After Regan was attacked by The Network, she started to get a feel for the deal we had made, now she wants out and I can only imagine that after tonight, it will be more so.”
Sienna: “You know if Regan finds out….”
Laura: “I don’t think Jennifer will dare tell her. For now, we are okay. I will treat her with kid gloves, you eliminated her relationship with the Cannon kid right, that is a start. We need to evolve her, you know, cultivate her into what the Beauty Factory believes.”
Sienna: “I need to talk to Regan, diffuse this a little because otherwise….”
Laura: “And then, what?”
Sienna: “… It doesn’t matter, I’ll handle it. Till then maybe we can at least eliminate that problem like we have done the Streets. I am sure that even after that whole debacle with Regan and Trinity from Bound by Blood, it has carried over. What we need, Laura, is a change in how the public looks at us.”
Laura: “What do you mean?”
She slowly turns her attention toward Laura while still keeping a close eye on the match playing on the monitor….
Sienna: “Do you like Gladiator movies?”
Laura: “I know I’m older than you but are you trying to be funny right now?”
Sienna: “I mean, seriously? Do you remember the movie Gladiator, with Russel Crowe?”
Laura: “Of course, it was a classic. What is the point here?”
Sienna: “Win the crowd and you will win your freedom. See Laura, right now we are seen as the enemy, they want to hate us out of pure jealousy and spite, we are the elite, the one or maybe two percent who they wish could be. We need to change that, make them aware that while we have the looks, the beauty, the money and the power? We are also contributors to society not just through fashion and allure, through being humanitarians. I watched an interview with Kelcey Wallace the other day….”
Before she could finish, suddenly Chris Cannon hits the C4 on both Kennedy and Owen Cruze, pinning the two of them. Sienna’s eyes widen, a bit surprised by the outcome of the match. Laura stands there with a smirk on her face….
Sienna: “Son of a bitch. Maybe I did light a fire under his ass…”
Laura: “That…. And my plan is working.”
Sienna: “Plan?”
Laura: “Kennedy, daring. Thank me later, you’re welcome.”
Sienna: “Wait… what plan?”
Laura: “Let’s just say she is distracted right now with filming in Hollywood, we ae keeping her busy….”
Laura looks over at LEO….
Laura: “LEO, darling, make sure we have a clear path to the car, London. Paris, stay with Sienna, once everything is clear we make our way out….”
Sienna: “Wait…. I need to see someone first.”
Laura: “You’re not going to talk to Regan? Not after what happened to her out there with Xander, darling? She will try to rip your head off.”
Sienna: “No, she won’t. Go, I’ll be right there shortly, just have LEO follow me.”
Laura: “Fine, LEO, follow Sienna.”
LEO: “Absolutely.”
Laura: “Just do me a favor, make sure there is no such physical altercation the last thing we need right now is to jeopardize our stance and what I have with Jennifer. Sienna, this conversation, we will continue. I agree one hundred percent and we need to start working on that now, I am open for any ideas.”
Sienna: “I already have one….”
Her blue eyes narrow, staring right at the camera where Chris Cannon’s arm is raised in victory. Trinity helps up her sister, Kennedy…..
Laura: “You, dirty little minx.”
Sienna: “I always have a plan…..”
She continues to stare at the camera, Laura and the Twins leave, all while she doesn’t take her eyes off Cannon. LEO waits and after a few moments, she finally steps back and heads out the door. Going down a few hallways, she finally arrives at Regan’s dressing room, knocking slowly, the door opens, Mikaela is sanding there….
Mikaela: “Now is NOT a good time.”
Sienna: “It never is with her, I need to talk to her Miks.”
Mikaela: “Sienna…..”
She can then hear Regan’s voice….
Regan: “Let her in.”
Mikaela: “Fine.”
She steps away from the door, LEO stands outside, Sienna walks in….
Sienna: “I need to talk to her, alone.”
Mikaela: “With that guy right here? Yeah, no.”
Regan: “It’s fine, Miks.”
Mikaela: “Alright, I’m going to catering, I’ll bring you back something.”
As Mikaela steps out, Sienna closes the door. Regan is still in her wrestling gear, a back of ice on her neck and shoulders, biting down on her jaw….
Sienna: “You were looking for me earlier what I did to Datura was for you.”
Regan: “I don’t need your help, I don’t want excuses.”
Sienna: “No? So, you would rather be pissed off at me and want to get angry with my actions when you should be Adrenaline Champion right now and instead you are not because Dark Fantasy completely denied you everything? So, we are going to fight one another and be at each other’s throats for what? Your hatred toward Laura? The Network? Damn it, Regan, you are MY BEST FRIEND!”
Regan: “And you crossed the line with me Sienna all for this Beauty Factory! I was laid out tonight because the numbers game is too much, and they are a bunch of fucking cowards!”
Sienna: “Yes, cowards, WE too have the numbers, we are your friends and allies, they are not! Yet you continue to refuse, for who? Your cousins? Kennedy can’t even win a fucking match anymore, Trinity can’t even control her own teammates, you almost fought against the Twins, yet they chose Dylan instead, what else do you need to prove, that Mr. D is your buddy now after everything he did to you and David!? US!? Datura is poison, that is it! Syren and Ravyn are poison, they are cancers to this sport and I hate them both as much as you do, and I wish they were fucking DEAD!”
Regan’s eyes widen, turning toward Sienna as she didn’t expect her to say those things realizing just how much Sienna hated them, knowing that Ravyn was the catalyst to Sienna’s success after the feud, it was she who elevated herself after that…..
Sienna: “What happened to you tonight, was wrong! Yet you continue to fight against me and resist my help. I messed up with Jennifer, I already apologized. I understand why you asked me to move out, I get that too now. We are friends, do not let Mr. D or any of these idiots get in the way of that. We are above this and you know it, Regan.”
Regan: “Are you done?”
Sienna: “Yeah…. I’m done.”
Regan: “Good. That’s my kid, Sienna and I don’t take what happens to her lightly, are we clear on that? I don’t care what Laura has planned, etc. I heard about her break up with Christian and I also know you were behind.”
Sienna: “I am just trying to protect her.”
Regan: “Yeah? If it wasn’t for that kid, Jennifer would probably be dead right now, so you were not trying to protect her, you were trying to get back at Chris. I don’t know what the fuck is going on with you, after I dispose of Datura and get the Adrenaline Championship?”
Sienna: “Don’t say it, don’t you dare say it.”
Regan: “Fine…. Goodnight Sienna.”
Regan slowly sits up and stares at the Angel who sighs, a bit flustered and angry, shaking her head, Sienna storms out of the room and slams the door. It takes a minute for her to get back composure. She glances over at LEO who nods….
LEO: “Are we done?”
Sienna: “Yeah, we’re done.”
Not another word is said, instead LEO leads the World Champion down the hall, she wants to turn around, go back into the room and fix it all now, she knows that Regan will have no listen after what happened earlier….
Sienna was not going to make another enemy….
Regan was her best friend, she wasn’t going to lose that, by hook or crook….
Things were going to work out.
ANGELIC INTENTIONS
Sienna had a full plate on her hand. After getting everything in motion at the AA venue in Santa Monica and promising to invest in innovations, Sienna had another plan on the books that she herself wanted to execute. This was all about Sienna and the way people saw her, a plan devised by the Angel to garner sympathy, get those by her side and most importantly, throw it back into Chris Cannon’s face. This was always about Chris Cannon with some other parts. It didn’t take long to realize and understand for Sienna that her friendship with Regan was starting to slowly fall apart, if she found out about the buyout of Jennifer’s contract or anything else that was going on, she knew that Regan would probably blame her and the friendship would be completely severed. For now, Sienna needed to concentrate on the important aspects of her personal life, that being her mother, sister, public image and most of all fashion career for if anything she needed to make sure everything was in order. Lancelot Crane had become difficult to work with, the contract with Vogue was still being litigated with lawyers, it was time that Sienna took control of everything herself and started to have dealing so that it was she who was in the driver’s seat. There was money, Sienna had been quite frugal for the last year or so, she didn’t want to spend anything, until recently finally starting to live the lifestyle that many would be envious of. Wrestling right now, was in the back of her mind. The good thing about all this….
Making Things Right was in Los Angeles.
Of course, Syren would try to make it sound like it was in front of her home town, newsflash, a lot of wrestles in the SCW live in LA, it’s not exclusive anymore. Sienna was finally moving into her new home, she had all the boxes, still most unpacked, she just didn’t have the time. New furniture was ordered, moving up into the Hollywood Hills, close to her parents and Laura, each house about ten to fifteen minutes away. She wanted privacy, a 5-bedroom house with gate, three car garage, pool, jacuzzi, tennis court and four thousand square feet of living space really fit Sienna’s needs and while she loved being close to the beach, the pool was a nice touch as Sienna wanted to be away from everything.
Sienna’s New Home
Hollywood Hills
1.14.19
Her sister Sierra was there to help, even though her short term memory was still not coming back, the fact their relationship was stronger than ever was a plus. Sienna had no clue how the accident happened, but had she found out, it could change the face of the Beauty Factory all together. Ikiro Yoshida, her boyfriend was at her new house unpacking things, so was Amanda and Sierra. Sienna wore jeans, thong sandals and a Victoria Secret t-shirt, her nails a glossy coating and hair in a ponytail. Sierra was in jeans, sneakers and a Beauty Factory t-shirt, Ikiro was in the same except he had on some Anime tee. As for Amanda, she was in the bedroom unpacking Sienna’s things in jeans, button up shirt and slip-ons. Sienna had a meeting later to attend, she wanted to get everything settled before hand, she knew that there was going to be time needed to beauty herself up…..
Sienna: “This stuff here goes to the kitchen, sweetie.”
Ikiro: “Okay, EyeYoshi likes the kitchen, it is very big, may need to hire a Chef.”
Sienna: “I have one, you. I appreciate it. Sierra, those books go in the den.”
Sierra: “Okay, I figured they would just wanted to make sure.”
As Sienna continued to unpack, she walks into her bedroom and sees her mother looking through pictures while sitting at the edge of the bed. Sienna smiles and sits next to her, some of the pictures were pretty old….
Sienna: “Where did you find that?”
Amanda: “In this box, buried away. Oh sweetheart, the good old days when life was so much simpler.”
Sienna: “I know mum, it was easier back then then it is now, and I don’t know how to do it at times, I wish I could just turn back time, I can’t. With new ventures comes new responsibility. I have a meeting to get to soon. I just wanted to say thank you. Sierra and you, mum have been such a huge help and I couldn’t have done it without you. It’s been tough lately for me with my relationships, it’s good to know that I have you two in my life again even if I have made it difficult at times. I am trying to do better, I want people to see that I do care.”
Amanda: “I know you do.”
Sienna: “No mum, I mean in a different light. It is time that I give back to the community that has helped me so much in recent years. I want to make a difference and for you to be proud of me.”
Amanda: “Sienna no matter what people say I am proud, you are my daughter and couldn’t be anymore prouder. Look at what you have done for yourself, for this family. Steven may not be around as much as I would like but part of the reason is because you gave him the ability to start fresh again. I love you.”
Sienna: “I love you too mum.”
It was a nice moment for Sienna who had started to heavily lean toward her mother and sister, to have family again which to her was exciting and refreshing. Sierra is putting books away in the den, she sees some old magazines about modelling, opening one of them up and seeing a picture of Sienna with the Twins, suddenly something sparked in her brain, seeing the Twins, she dropped the magazine and stumbled back a little, Ikiro was able to catch her and immediately cry out to her sister…..
Ikiro: “Sienna!”
Sienna comes out of the bedroom and downstairs, she sees Sierra sitting down as Ikiro is giving her water and fanning her with a magazine, Amanda follows behind her eldest daughter….
Sienna: “What happened, are you okay?”
Sierra: “I was looking at a magazine, then I suddenly started to remember things I think and became dizzy, Ikiro here, helped break my fall, thank you…”
Ikiro: “Anytime, EyeYoshi also is a hero when he is not helping Angels move and kicking people in the face…”
Sienna glares at Ikiro who now holds his hands up innocently…
Sienna: “Thank you sweetie. What did you remember?”
Sierra: “I can’t remember now it was so fast. I’m sorry, I just need to lay down.”
Sienna: “It’s fine, love. Ikiro, have her go lay down in one of the spare bedrooms. Take a nap, stay here all day, I need to leave shortly for a meeting. Mum, please stay.”
Amanda: “Not a problem, when she’s ready we’ll head home.”
As Amanda starts to help Sierra to the room, Sienna turns toward Ikiro who watches on….
Sienna: “I need to get ready, can you stay and make sure they are okay?”
Ikiro: “Of course, EyeYoshi can.”
Sienna: “Thank you sweetie. She had a memory, that was a plus, I just wonder what triggered it?”
Ikiro picks up the magazine and sees the picture of Sienna and the Twins. His eyes narrow, fixated on the picture of the Twins….
Los Angeles, CA.
One Hour Later
Sienna Swann looked stunning in a cream-colored suit and skirt. She had on peep toe pumps, her nails polished a glossy color, hair slicked back in a ponytail, a white blouse. She was accompanied by Laura Steinbeck, LEO and the Twins. They were making their way up to the top floor in the elevator…
Laura: “You look absolutely stunning darling.”
Sienna: “Thanks, you were my inspiration of course.”
Laura: “Well…. I am glad that I inspired you in that way. How was the move?”
Sienna: “It went well, although Sierra seemed to have had a memory flashback today.”
The Twins eyes widen, looking at one another. Laura cleared her throat and glanced over at Sienna….
Laura: “She did? That is wonderful news, I am so happy that she is starting to come along. Isn’t that right, London and Paris?”
London: “We are very happy for her.”
Paris: “Speedy recovery… for sure.”
Sienna: “Thank you, all I want is for her memory to come back and that will make things so much better moving forward…..”
The elevator opens, Sienna walks out, Laura turns around quickly….
Laura: “Don’t think for one second that I don’t know what happened. We will discuss this later you two!”
The Twins both stood there in shock that Laura knew. They quickly walk out of the elevator and follow Laura and Sienna to the board room where they walk in. Steve Bain is there along with Lancelot Crane. Sienna sits across from Lancelot who is in a suit, no tie…
Lancelot: “Looking beautiful as ever.”
Sienna: “Don’t talk to me.”
Crane laughs looking at Sienna with unimpressed eyes…
Lancelot: “Isn’t that why we are all here? To clear the air? Make sure that we are all aware of what had happened for the Vogue Magazine cover shoot?”
Sienna: “Is that why you are here?”
Lancelot: “Would you think I was lying if I said I was here because I wanted to see you again?”
Sienna: “Yes, you’re a liar and a piece of shi-.”
Laura: “Sienna! That’s enough.”
He smirks. Laura sits down across from Steve Bain. She wore a black suit, red blouse and matching pumps, the Twins were also in blue suits and white blouses, LEO in his black suit. Steve didn’t offer anyone coffee or drinks, he was ready to get back to business….
Steve: “I don’t care what is going on here between all of you. All I care about is Vogue. It looks like there was a lot of misunderstandings here when it came to the expectations of the magazine. I had a vision, obviously Lancelot has another one, Sienna went with what Lancelot suggested, I acted way out of line….”
Sienna looks a bit surprised that Steve Bain took any responsibility whatsoever for the incident in Boston. Her eyes travel toward Laura who winks….
Steve: “After speaking with Laura, her lawyers, my lawyers, it is in the interest of Vogue and this publication that we continue to deal with The Beauty Factory as the contract states. Furthermore, I will be personally not involved anymore with these dealings, instead I have appointed a new person to take over and handle over this part of the business while I stay in my office taking care of the daily operations here in Vogue. Laura and I have had extended talks about this. I dropped the assault charges on Ikiro Yoshida too. I have learned that business needs to come first and I have shown to have had some very bad business practices and I apologize for that. Moving forward I will do a better job of treating the past, present and future members of this extended family and show the world what Vogue really is all about. With Sienna’s huge World Championship defense coming up here in Los Angeles, we have a huge campaign ready to be released. We are going to display almost every billboard with Sienna’s face on it. We will also feature, Jennifer Helms, Willow Wilkes, Jason King, Ricky Octavius and the Truelove Twins.”
Laura continues to listen, with a smile on her face, Crane just chuckles and sits back in his chair. Sienna still can’t believe the words coming out of Bain’s mouth. She again glances at Laura who winks one more time, Sienna smiles…..
Lancelot: “Right, are we done?”
Steve: “Not yet. We pay you a lot of money to take quality pictures of all our models and those supported by Vogue, we expect that you follow the details of our working contract with you Mr. Crane. You see, if you are in breach of that contract, you will pay us back for services rendered plus forty percent.”
Lancelot: “…Excuse me?”
Steve: “We understand that you were the cause behind the mix-up in the Vogue special anniversary edition and so as we had a deal to make sure that all pictures and shoots were to be followed with specific instructions, you chose to ignore that and so the next time you do? You’ll be fired.”
Lancelot: “Ha!”
Crane slammed the table and leaned back into his chair looking at all who looked at him…
Steve: “I didn’t make a joke Lancelot, I’m being serious.”
Lancelot: “Really? Don’t you understand, you can’t fire me? I am Lancelot Crane, there is no other photographer in all this fucking city that can make these people in the room look 100 times better than they are already, every blemish gone. Besides, maybe Sienna should tell you that we were both in on the decision, or was that the cocaine, talking?”
Laura’s eyes widen, Sienna quickly rebuts….
Sienna: “I’m sorry what? I have no idea what you are talking about. You are a liar….”
Lancelot: “Really? I guess fucking while high is below your pay grade, right Angel? You may have this numbskull fooled but not me. See, this fight right here, you don’t want. I have creative control of what I take and who I shoot with, is that understood?”
Sienna: “You are a pompous ass.”
Lancelot: “Am I? Better than being a lying slut.”
Sienna stands up and slams the desk….
Steve: “Sienna, calm down!”
Laura: “Darling, please sit.”
Sienna: “Do you want to know what your problem is Lancelot? You think you’re untouchable because women flock to you sweetie when you are nothing more than an attention starved child looking for the next desperate woman to fall into the “Lancelot Crane Photo Shoot will make my career” nonsense.”
Lancelot: “Really? Is that why little Jenni came to me begging for more?”
Sienna: “You son of a bitch….”
She takes off her heel and throws it right at him, hitting Crane in the face cutting his cheek. He quickly stands up and realizes she cut his face….
Lancelot: “MY FUCKING FACE!?”
Sienna: “Wow look at that you bleed red, begun to think you might be the Lizard King!”
Bain looks to Laura a little confused about the Lizard King remark…
Laura: “It’s a wrestling thing darling, don’t worry about it.”
Bain throws his hands up and falls back into his chair watching Sienna and Lancelot go at it…
Lancelot: “You cut my fucking face!!!”
Sienna: “You like that asshole!?”
Sienna takes off her other heel and launches it at him again this time hitting his chest. Crane tries to get across the table, but LEO quickly grabs him from behind, the Twins on the other side of the table grab Sienna….
Sienna: “I will destroy you! Do you hear me you bastard!? I will destroy you for everything that you have done to manipulate woman and lying to them, you weasel, you slime ball! You’re just like so many men I’ve come across in my life you scum! At least Steve gets it now, you don’t!”
Steve: “I’m calling security and….
Laura grabs his hand and shakes her head….
Laura: “No, we will handle this. LEO… escort Mr. Crane out of here, please.”
LEO: “With pleasure.”
Lancelot: “Sienna…. You made the biggest and most fatal mistake of your fucking life!”
Sienna: “Is that a threat!?”
Lancelot: “NO! It’s a promise!”
LEO drags him out, Crane tries to break out of his grip but cannot. Sienna stares him down, as Crane seethes in anger, his cheek bleeding. He tries to break free again but to no avail as he is taken out of the room and the door is slammed shut…
Steve: “Well… That didn’t go as planned. That man is an obvious psycho. We will look to terminate his contract. That is all I have. Just make sure Sienna that you are ready for the next set of shoots for our Spring and Summer specials.”
Sienna: “Of course. Mr. Bain, why the new attitude?”
Steve: “Ask Laura.”
He grabs his things and walks out of the office. Paris picks up Sienna’s heels and hands them to her…
Sienna: “Thanks, love.”
Paris: “No problem.”
Sienna: “Laura?”
Laura: “Let’s just say sweetie, Steve Bain understands that we have the power now. I had to convince him after a certain recording of him trying to seduce me was threatened to be released and ruin his career and marriage.”
Sienna: “You, sneaky bitch.”
Laura: “You love me for it. Anyway, that was ugly. Sienna, I love you darling, but you cannot be burning bridges like that especially with someone like Lancelot Crane, he may be an eccentric asshole, but he is also a very talented man with a lot of pull.”
Sienna: “So am I. You remember what I told you after Breakdown.”
Laura: “Yes, I do.”
Sienna: “I need you to come with me, then.”
Laura: “Where are we going, darling?”
Sienna: “Cedar Sinai Hospital.”
Laura looks a bit confused….
Laura: “For what?”
Sienna: “Our public image, after this, I will be an Angel and nothing Dark Fantasy does or says, nothing Ace or Cassidy do, nothing Mr. D and his favorites say can change it.”
Laura: “Okay… I’m following you.”
Sienna picks up her cellphone and starts to dial….
Sienna: “Yes, Mr. Thomas? It’s Sienna Swann, we are on the way to discuss what we talked about previously….”
The gorgeous Angel walks out after putting on her heels again. Laura takes a deep breath, knowing that what happened in there could have been a lot worse. She turns to the Twins….
Laura: “I saw the security footage.”
Paris: “Laura, we can explain.”
Laura: “I’m tired of cleaning up your messes, get your shit together girls!”
She doesn’t say another word and storms out, London and Paris turn to face each other and let out a sigh of relief….
That Laura understands she will never allow for the Beauty Factory to implode from within, now the trick is to make sure that Sierra Swann….
Remembers nothing.
EPILOGUE: ALL THE BOYS LOVE SIENNA SWANN
After what many would consider a volatile yet productive meeting where Laura and Sienna not only stood their ground but positioned themselves to make a lot of money out of this, surprising Steve Bain and even Lancelot crane into building the ultimate Modeling facility within the factory and taking all the talent, suddenly Sienna felt much more comfortable about her future after modeling because it was not going to last forever….
Wrestling on the other hand, she had no intentions of ever leaving especially losing the World Championship. Sienna had plans in place, now that they were in the driver’s seat, it was only a matter of time before things turned out for the best. It was all about one thing that had caught Sienna Swann’s undivided attention…
That was the “Perfect Cure” press conference at Cedars Sinai hospital. Kelcey was no dummy, she had it aligned with SCW in town for Making Things Right. Mr. D was going to be there, several other superstars like Kennedy and Trinity Street, Jonathan Knots, Owen Cruze, Chris Cannon, Selena Frost, Peyton Rice, James Evans and others in support of her Charity and this exciting venture in which she has taken a year to create and very dear ad close to her heart. Sienna wasn’t going to miss it for the world, if anything, she would be there to see Kelcey’s dream come true.
Sienna Swann was going to walk into the PPV with all the momentum, Syren was her biggest challenge, Cassidy Carter was simply annoying and just there to interfere in Sienna’s grand plan. The Swann was at home, she put on a beautiful white cut off dress and peep toe pumps, her long hair was straightened and slicked back, her nails a glossy coating. The limousine is waiting outside….
Hollywood Hills, CA.
1.18.19
Sienna finishes putting on her lipstick when Jennifer Helms walks in, she too is wearing a black tight cropped dress, open toed heels with her long hair wavy and hanging down, nails polished a baby pink. She came in to grab Sienna as Laura, the Truelove Twins, Willow Wilkes, Jason King, Ricky Octavius, LEO and Ikiro Yoshida are waiting in the limo for her….
Jennifer: “Are you ready?”
Sienna: “Almost, pass me that eye liner, please, sweetie.”
Jennifer: “Here, why are we doing this?”
As Jennifer passes her the eye liner, it is obvious the young Helms is curious as to why they as in the Beauty Factory are all going to this event in the afternoon for the “Perfect cure” Foundation that Kelcey is starting up. She understands that SCW is involved as a proud sponsor, to help Kelcey get it off the ground. Jennifer though doesn’t see that as being the driving force behind Sienna going, it’s Chris Cannon….
Sienna: “It’s a good cause, besides, it will be great publicity for us going into the PPV this weekend. Look at it this way, it is an SCW sponsored event, sure it might be through invite but come on, sweetie, they will let ecstatic to see more talent show up, besides I have a huge surprise coming up….”
Jennifer: “Sienna, don’t.”
She stops putting on her lipstick, slowly turning around and making eye contact with the beautiful Helms daughter….
Sienna: “Don’t what?”
Jennifer: “This is about Chris again, isn’t it? This is a very important cause for Kelcey. Look, I am part of the Beauty Factory, yes, I know how hard she has worked to get this off the ground, if this is some trick…”
Sienna: “Really? How little you think of me. Tell me that you don’t believe I would go to this momentous occasion to ruin it for Kelcey over my petty differences with Chris? I am having issues with your mom, I hate that, I cry myself to sleep at night thinking how upset she is at me. I ask you not to judge me Jennifer and instead, have a little faith, yes?”
Jennifer: “Do you think they want us there especially after Christian? What about Chris call? What about the statement he made at Breakdown, it is obvious that he is solely focused on YOU and only YOU. All this will do is entice him further.”
Sienna: “You do know why, I am so angry with Chris, right?”
Jennifer: “He turned down your advances?”
Sienna: “And never showed up for my AA meeting as my sponsor after helping me out for a few months and I was doing so well. It broke me, Jennifer, he broke me down and I fell off the wagon. You remember the day you saw me like that at the old house?”
Jennifer: “It was scary.”
Sienna: “And I am forever indebted to you for it. All I ask is that you give me a chance, that is it. Can you do that, please? All I am asking is you trust me.”
Jennifer knew that was going to be hard to do after what had happened with Christian and how she was basically forced to break up with him due to her locked in to the contract by Laura Steinbeck. Nothing she could have done would have shielded or prevented him from being a focus for the Beauty Factory. Trust was not the first thing on her mind but for the sake of argument and transparency, Jennifer nodded….
Sienna: “Thank you. Look, I know it was hard for you to do that, maybe you can still talk to him, be cordial or friendly….”
Jennifer: “He left.”
Sienna: “What do you mean, he left?”
Jennifer: “He’s gone. He went overseas, England to get away from things. I’ll see you outside, hurry up.”
Sienna: “Yeah…. I’ll be there in a sec sweetie.”
As Jennifer left the room, Sienna turned back to the mirror and cracked a smile. It was then she realized that part of her plan was working and if Chris wanted to pursue this with her, she would do everything in her power to make sure that he’d regret ever breaking his promise. She finished applying her makeup, eyeliner and grabbed her purse, heading out to the car….
Already in a good mood.
About Fifteen Minutes into the drive, Sienna sits snugly by Ikiro, holding his hand. Willow has her hand Jason’s leg, staring at her, cracking a smile, glancing over at Jennifer who is comfortably sitting next to Ricky, she is showing him some pics on her phone, they are laughing together a little, that made Laura happy to see Jenni interact with him. The Twins were basically groping LEO, trying to fight over the talented and handsome muscle. Laura leans into Sienna….
Laura: “I am risking a lot here, are you sure about this?”
Sienna: “Positive. I know what I am doing, Laura, this time, let me handle this. After tonight, they will look at us all in a totally different light. I realized that it’s time I do something else besides be World Champion or the Face of Fashion.”
Laura: “Your sincerity is awe-inspiring.”
Sienna: “Good one.”
Laura: “Ikiro?”
Ikiro turns to look over at Laura….
Ikiro: “Hai?”
Laura: “What is your trainers name again, darling?”
Sienna’s eyes widen….
Ikiro: “Hiroshi Kajima.”
Laura: “Is he really that scary?”
Ikiro: “Very scary but gentle on beautiful woman like yourself.”
Sienna: “You aren’t serious?”
Laura: “Darling, a woman has needs and I have them at my ripe age. Maybe after a couple of more glasses of wine, he may look like Tom Selleck….”
Willow starts to laugh….
Laura: “What is so funny?”
Willow: “Tom Selleck? You are so old.”
Laura: “Shut up.”
That only erupts more laughter from Willow, Jason, Ricky and Jennifer. They continue to head toward Cedars Sinai, Laura is getting nervous, Sienna can see it, her toes are curling, she keeps rubbing her palms….
Ikiro: “You need to get… laid?”
Laura: “For the love of God…. No….. I mean…. This conversation ends now. I’m just a little nervous.”
Ikiro: “I call Hiroshi.”
Laura: “No….”
Ikiro: “Yes?”
Laura: “N…. yes, damn it.”
Ikiro: “Call now.”
Sienna: “See, that was simple, and I told you, don’t worry about it, okay?”
Laura: “I trust you.”
Willow: “Is there food and drinks at this?”
Laura: “Oh darling, the SCW would probably pull a Trump and cater McDonalds. We have dinner reservations in Beverly Hills, don’t worry about that. Only the best for the Beauty Factory which reminds me, after this weekend when Sienna successfully defends her World Championship and we stuff it back in the face of Katya and Dark Fantasy. What is going to happen here tonight will be momentous, it will bring us the attention and the press we need. Sienna?”
The Angel smiles….
Sienna: “I am glad to share this afternoon and evening with all of you. I hope that after tonight, you see exactly what I am doing and have planned moving forward for all of us. The Beauty Factory will be at the forefront from this day on and 2019 will be OUR year. See, Dark Fantasy and Mr. D’s favorites like to invoke their abuse of power. Do you see anyone in our corner? Sasha? Katya? Mr. D himself? No, we do not. We stand strong and tall on our own two feet. From SCW to EMERGE, this company will soon belong to all of us. Cheers…”
All of them raise their glasses and toast, they drink, though Sienna has cider, she glances over at Laura and winks. Ikiro shows Laura the text he sent Hiroshi….
Laura: “He calls me a Queen?”
Ikiro: “Hai, you are beautiful Queen to Hiroshi.”
Laura: “Darling, where has he been all my life.”
Sienna lets out a giggle and turns to kiss Ikiro….
Cedar Sinai Hospital
Los Angeles, CA.
Thirty Minutes Later
Chris Cannon in a black suit and white shirt, no tie is helping Kelcey Wallace in this beautiful black dress, showing off her baby bump, Michael Thomas, the President of the hospital is talking to a few people including Mr. D as a few superstars of the SCW visited earlier. They are there waiting for the press conference in support. Kennedy is seen with her daughter, Sonia and Jonathan Knots, Chris is compelled to go speak with her before Kelcey grabs his arm…
Kelcey: “Don’t.”
Chris: “I want to get past this issue between us. I know she is upset that I pinned her and Owen, I get that.”
Kelcey: “She’s upset because you hurt her ribs and she can’t compete at the PPV. We both know it was an accident love, just let her cool down. Kennedy is a smart woman, she will come around. Maybe after the press conference?”
Chris: “Yeah…. Maybe you’re right. I just hate this. We must be on the same page when it comes to Katya and Dark Fantasy. I didn’t mean to hurt her.”
Kelcey: “Just relax, I need you to stay focused on me right now because I’m super nervous and excited, I really need you to support me, okay?”
Chris: “You know I will, always.”
As they continue to talk, Mr. D walks up, he hugs Kelcey and shakes Chris hand…
Kelcey: “Thank you so much for being here, you do not know how much this means and considering your current situation with Katya….”
Mr. D: “I am confident that everything will work out in the end, right now its tough and she has a lot of anger built up. I wanted to apologize for the things she has said about you, about Kennedy….”
Kelcey: “No, you never have to apologize to me for what she said. Uncalled for, sure but it’s fine, I take it with a grain of salt. She is your daughter, I’m not going to egg her on, I cannot say the same for Kennedy who is pretty hot at a lot of things right now.”
Mr. D: “I know, I will take care of Kennedy, she is upset, it happens but she’s a good woman that has changed. Today is about you, Kelcey. I know how hard you have worked to get this off the ground and the SCW is honored to be partnered up with the “Perfect Cure” and this tremendous organization you are starting. Just don’t keep this guy running around too much, I need him healthy and alert on Sunday.”
Kelcey and Chris both laugh a little….
Chris: “I won’t, promise.”
Mr. D: “How’s your son?”
Kelcey sighs, Chris tries to compose himself before answering…
Chris: “He left for England, taking a little break. He needs to go back and visit his friends and such.”
Mr. D: “This didn’t have anything to do with anyone on the roster, did it?”
Chris wanted to mention that it was Sienna Swann and Jennifer Helms but opted not to when he felt Kelcey’s hand grab his. He turned to his wife and nodded, then back to Mr. D….
Chris: “No, it’s good for him to visit other family.”
Mr. D: “Of course. Well, I look forward to the speech and good luck.”
Kelcey: “Thank you.”
As Mr. D walks off to talk over with Kennedy, Trinity, Lucas Knight, Jonathan Knots and Peyton Rice with Owen Cruze, the President of Cedar Sinai approaches and shakes Chris hand before Kelcey’s…
Michael: “I am so excited in this partnership and we have a huge surprise for you as well.”
Kelcey: “Surprise? Really?”
Michael: “Yes, I can’t wait until we announce this. We are starting soon, I will call you up shortly, are you ready?”
Kelcey: “Of course!”
As Michael Thomas walks to the podium and stage, Kelcey turns to Chris both surprised and intrigued at the same time. Chris shrugs his shoulders…..
Kelcey: “What surprise, did you know about this?”
Chris: “Honestly I had no clue. I guess we will see right? I wish Christian was here.”
Kelcey: “I’m not going to jump into any conclusions yet until I talk to her if I can ever get some private time. I wish he was here too, but he isn’t. It’s okay, Chris, the time away will do him some good until this all blows over, love.”
Chris: “You’re right, it is for the best. Well, it’s time.”
The people start to gather around, there must be at least over one hundred in attendance including some huge News Outlets, local TV and even TMZ. Mr. D sits in the front along with the Streets, their spouses and other SCW superstars like Selena Frost who is super excited to be there for her friend. Michael Thomas stands at the podium….
Michael: “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming. Usually I find myself always finding the right words to say and how honored and privileged I am to be working with such an extraordinary woman in Kelcey Wallace and the Supreme Championship Wrestling who gives so much back to the community. About a year ago, Kelcey approached me with an idea to start the “Perfect Cure”, an organization that will be global and work hard to find a cure for Parkinson’s Disease and coming from a woman who has it, I could see the emotion and passion she has. After figuring some things out, we had elected to partner up with Kelcey and the SCW to launch this special program here at the hospital. With some of the stars here in attendance, it is my honor to introduce to you Kelcey Wallace. After she is done, we have a special presentation just for her, a surprise. Kelcey Wallace, everyone.”
The crowd starts to clap and cheer, she smiles and makes her way up the ramp way and on to the podium where she looks out at her family, friends and others covering this occasion….
Kelcey: “This is pretty amazing to say the least. When I….”
She pauses for a second as the limo pulls up, suddenly all the members of the Beauty Factory step out with Sienna being the last, Chris turns, he sees this and quickly is about to react when Kelcey shakes her head and instead continues to speak, he slowly calms himself down and turns back to his wife who speaks….
Kelcey: “When I was planning this a year ago, I had a dream that one day we would find a cure. It is so important to donate, to give a little for us to fund such a huge endeavor. I loved my job, wrestling for the SCW, they called me the Perfect Ten, I lived that moniker, ask Kennedy, Trinity and Selena, Peyton, Owen and my husband, Chris. I believed in Perfection, it was a state you were comfortable with. Well now, I focus on finding a Perfect Cure. I can physically no longer do so and have a child on my way, I promised my father and mother that no matter what, I would live the Perfect life. I’m there now.”
She stops and smiles, her blue eyes turn to Sienna who just stares her down…..
Kelcey: “I am proud to be partnering with Cedars Sinai Hospital. This chance to work with such top-notch professionals has really allowed for this dream to come true. With some funding and a lot of help through donations I am now challenged with the getting this off the ground. I want to thank SCW and Mr. D for being so supportive as both a father figure and my boss. For him to be here means the world to me. I am glad all of you came out, Parkinson’s is a very dangerous disease and together we could….. Sienna?”
Kelcey stops in the middle of her speech, seeing Sienna Swann step forward, Michael Thomas walks up to the podium, there are a few people bringing something over that is covered up. Chris is about to stand up when Selena grabs his hand and pulls him back down ….
Michael: “Kelcey, this was the surprise I was talking about. Ladies and gentlemen, the Perfect Cure Foundation was going to partner with Cedars by running special programs here to those that qualified in the trials. Now we are able to not only have trials for those who qualify, we are now opening a new Wing in the Hospital called the KELCEY WALLACE “PERFECT CURE” WING FOR RESEARCH IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE….”
They take off the cover and reveal the sign, her eyes widen, stunned, he then looks over at Sienna and nods as the Angel starts to make her way toward the podium, she turns to Chris and smirks before looking back at Kelcey…..
Michael: “Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce to you, the woman that donated 5 million dollars to the Perfect Cure, Sienna Swann!”
A huge ovation occurs, Mr. D claps but turns to Laura who winks, Chris stands there staring at Sienna, biting her bottom lip and seeing Kelcey surprised and astonished she would do that….
Sienna: “I’m not here to take Kelcey’s thunder. She is a woman that I respect and admire, I have for years. For me, Kelcey has been my inspiration, we have been friends, competitors and now that she can no longer be a part of the SCW, I wanted to show her the appreciation I have for her by giving her this donation so she may have the wing at the Hospital and guarantee the foundation has the funding it needs for such a great cause. In the ring we may have been adversaries…. But here, it is about saving lives. Thank you Kelcey and I am sorry for ever hurting you.”
The crowd cheers and claps, Kelcey doesn’t know what to do so she says “Thank You” before the two hugs, Chris can only look on, not much else that can happen from there. Jennifer leans in to Laura…
Jennifer: “What the hell….”
Laura: “I know darling, it’s great!”
As Sienna steps down, reporters start asking her questions, Chris turns right to Laura and Jennifer as they spoke…
Chris: “You think this is funny?”
Laura: “Actually no, it’s inspiring. You should be thankful to Sienna, Chris. She just helped your wife get her charity off the ground.”
Chris: “You a part of this too Jenni?”
Jennifer: “I…. Mr. Cannon…. N…”
Laura cuts her off….
Laura: “She doesn’t have to answer you, Chris. Why don’t you show her, me and the rest of the Beauty Factory, we saved your wife’s dream. Be a little more appreciative.”
Chris: “Jennifer….”
Jennifer: “I’m sorry…. Mr. Cannon.”
She quickly turns around and walks away, that prompts him to look right at Laura with narrowed eyes….
Chris: “What have you done Jennifer?”
Laura: “Made her into a woman. Now go and get a photo=op with Sienna, be a good husband and shoo.”
Chris: “I swear Laura….”
Laura: “Don’t.”
Chris wants to say more, he doesn’t, instead he moves toward his wife who is talking to Michael and Sienna. Chris shakes Michael’s and, then checks on Kelcey who nods. He turns to Sienna who stares right at him with her bright blue eyes….
Sienna: “Chis! Sweetie, so good to see you, he is such a great guy, Mr. Thomas.”
Michael: “Oh we know.”
Sienna: “These two are made for one another.”
Chris: “Can I speak with you for a second?”
Sienna: “Sure, Kelcey, seriously, it’s an honor.”
Kelcey: “Thank you, I mean that.”
Sienna: “I know.”
As Sienna is ready to walk away, Chris grabs her by the wrist and pulls her to the side….
Sienna: “I like it rough…..”
Chris: “Stop, what the bloody hell is?”
Sienna: “A donation.”
Chris: “Why!?”
Sienna: “To help Kelcey because you cannot financially, I can. Face it, Chris, the minute turned your back on me, broke promises and hung up on me, that sent me the clear message, you were not going to accept me or this we have between us. So, I decided to take a different approach.”
She tries to walk away but Chris grabs her arm again…..
Sienna: “You’re hurting me, and I will scream, so that all these cameras will be pointing right at you. What would that do to Kelcey, sweetie?”
As Chris reluctantly let’s go, a few photographers, ask for pictures, Sienna quickly poses with Cannon who can’t do anything but accept it, he stands there, as they disappear, he tuns back to Sienna who smirks and leans into his ear….
Sienna: “I took your son away, now I have your wife. Your move, sweetie.”
She smiles, running her fingers across his chest before walking off to where the reporters were. Sienna was looking for attention, she found it and now after tonight, it was one step closer to get what she wanted……
Power.
Enough positive publicity that anyone who opposes her, is an instant enemy in the public eye and she becomes what she’s truly transformed into….
A REAL Angel.
Los Angeles, CA.
Lancelot Crane Home
The eccentric photographer sits in his dark room, wearing leather pants, no shirt on and barefoot. Lancelot Crane has a bandage over his cheek where Sienna cut him. A small TV sits in the corner where the Press Conference is on, he just watched Sienna donate 5 million to the new Wing in Cedars Sinai. He grabs his glass of Scotch and sips it, looking down at a few pictures he had developed….
A picture of Jennifer Helms, Bree Lancaster and then an old one of Rebecca Williams, the late sister of Jennifer. He runs his fingers down the face of Jennifer, grabbing hers and placing it with Rebecca….
Lancelot: “I guess now I have the little sister, huh Rebecca? How I missed you. Now….for you….”
He lifts Sienna’s picture, it is one that he took of her sleeping naked on the bed when she had come over that day and they slept together. Trembling a little, he touches the cut on his face which may leave a scar. He slowly starts to cut the picture only showing the head of Sienna, staring at it, nostrils flaring…..
Placing it in his mouth and chewing on it before swallowing.
SCENE FADES
“What I have done should be of no surprise. I care about the human race; our environment and I think it is about time that I started to give back to those who have taken their time to help me throughout my life with both my struggles and victories. I have a voice, a very powerful one that unlike Syren or Cassidy Carter, I can se to my advantage. There will never be anyone that will attest to the power I hold, more than anyone in the SCW, even your precious legends who carry themselves as nothing more than spotlight hogs, whoring all the attention while I demand it but also receive it without even lifting a finger. In my life, there are very few things I have not done though I think you all know by now that Sienna Swann doesn’t like to lose at anything, she is involved with….
So, take this with a grain of salt or don’t it doesn’t matter, the truth is….
I’m the ONLY Angel you have….
It’s time to live the part.”
ANGELIC ADDRESS
MAKING THINGS PERMANENT
The Scene Opens….
The Hollywood Sign, formerly the Hollywoodland Sign is an American landmark and cultural icon overlooking Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. It is situated on Mount Lee, in the Hollywood Hills area of the Santa Monica Mountains.
“HOLLYWOOD” is spelled out in 45-foot tall white capital letters and is 352 feet long. The sign was originally created in 1923 as an advertisement for a local Real estate development, but due to increasing recognition, the sign was left up. The sign has been a frequent target of pranks and vandalism across the decades, but it has since undergone restoration, including the installation of a security system to deter vandalism. The sign is protected and promoted by The Hollywood Sign Trust, a nonprofit organization, while its site and the surrounding land are part of Griffith Park.
The sign makes frequent appearances in Popular culture, particularly in “Establishing Shots” for films and television programs set in or around Hollywood. Signs of similar style, but spelling different words, are frequently seen as parodies. The sign was erected in 1923 and originally read “HOLLYWOODLAND.” Its purpose was to advertise the name of a new segregated, whites-only housing development in the hills above the Hollywood district of Los Angeles. H. J. Whitley had already used a sign to advertise his development Whitley Heights, which was located between Highland Avenue and Vine Street. He suggested to his friend Harry Chandler, the owner of the Los Angeles newspaper, that the land syndicate in which he was involved make a similar sign to advertise their land. Real estate developers Woodruff and Shoults called their development “Hollywoodland” and advertised it as a “superb environment without excessive cost on the Hollywood side of the hills”. Here is where we find Sienna Swann, the World Champion and the Iron Angel of the SCW. The gorgeous South African along with her Beauty Factory members of the Truelove Twins and Network member, LEO stand behind her. Laura is in the distance with a camera crew, they used their passes to be allowed in the sign area as Sienna prepares to shoot her promotional video. This is the match she has been waiting for since before Rise to Greatness, unfortunately for Sienna, Cassidy Carter had somehow able to inject herself in the match with the blessing of Mr. D when he returned at the first Breakdown of 2019. Sienna doesn’t really care, she has been challenging Syren for months after months and now that she is World Champion and threatening Syren’s record for longest reigning, the woman had to not only take out the claws, she now has Katya, Mr. D’s daughter doing her all the favors.
Sienna finds this funny as she has NO ONE on the Drachewych clan that likes or defends her, Sienna, the Beauty Factory and The Network are all on their own.
The Beautiful Angel is more than just a World Champion though, the 2018 Wrestler of the Year and now looks to continue that momentum against two of the toughest challengers she has faced, one that continues to be a burden and the other a nuisance.
Wearing white pleather jeans, gold open toed heels, a matching halter top with her hair straightened and hanging down, nails a glossy finish, with he world Championship hanging over her shoulder, she turns toward Laura who nods and instructs the cameraman to begin the recording…
REC:
Sienna takes a second to look out into the LA Basin, the place she calls him as does Syren, though this time, the former World Champion doesn’t have what many call, the “Home Field Advantage” as she would think. The Twins in jeans, black halter tops and boots, stand behind her with LEO in a black suit and white shirt. Sienna starts to speak in her South African accent…
“Hollywood, Tinseltown. There was a time when Syren would boast about having a World Championship match in Los Angeles, claiming to have home field advantage. I live fifteen minutes up the road, half the superstars call this place home so it was rather comforting to know that after I defend my title successfully at “Making Things Right”, I will be able to sleep in my own bed like a baby. How long have I waited for this match? How long have I screamed, cried, yelled and begged for Syren to be in the ring with me one on one after the debacle of two years ago with her wife and then again Xander Valentine helping her with the battle royal with the number 40 wasted, after I wrestled for SEVENTY MINUTES and was tossed out by her thanks to a robbery I suffered weeks prior?
It seems like Syren always gets her way doesn’t it, isn’t that why she has a title match again when she’s never done anything to deserve it? I remember a time when she would call out Regan Street when she too demanded rematches, telling her that she would have to wait in line as no one was ever guaranteed anything. I imagine that if by some chance in Hell one of these two imbecils walk out with MY title, I will never see a rematch considering this could determine who is in charge and since Katya hasn’t come up for air yet with her head buried so far up Syren’s ass, I would think it’s a moot point to even consider it. The question of course though is do I care? The answer of course is no, because for me I won’t need a rematch. Let’s be honest here since Syren is a hypocrite, she loves to call others out for the same things she’s been doing the last year, so desperate looking for a chance to be Champion again, I took from Kennedy Street what you could not retain. See, for the last two years, since my little unfortunate accident with Blake Mason, it opened my eyes, I started to see the masks worn by others. It was then I began to stake my claim in this business and worked to be where I am today. Syren, you have had a great career, one that has spanned for ten years just in SCW alone. I’m a realist, I know that I only hope to have half the accolades you’ve garnered throughout my tenure, the only difference I will not do it at the sacrifice of my integrity and skills inside that ring….
Unlike you, unlike Cassidy Carter?
I don’t need anyone in management to endorse or grant me any favors, I earn them.
You won’t like hearing that and I understand, why would you? You’re Zoe Sperling, The Real Syren! One of the very best in SCW!!! You can argue Syren until turning blue in the face with what I said and yet the same answers to the same questions are either ignored or changed at your discretion because that’s what you do now, bend words to suit your whim. The Irony isn’t lost on me though either. I see that there is a pattern of behavior here, it’s simple isn’t it, you don’t want to lose your spot. You will honestly stand there in front of your camera or laying on your bed on YouTube or whatever it is you do these days to be hip with the in crowd. When you do it, you’re thinking that you’re better than me just like Ravyn does, just like Cassidy does and everyone else who has issue with me. But you know what while It is true, Ravyn had my number in the ring I had her number outside it and when I beat her at her own game? It changed her stance didn’t it? The rules of engagement began to change, and she started to realize that this little charade, the act you two have been playing for years was finally up and the REAL face of this company was ready to take her place amongst the Elite. It’s been tough, hasn’t Syren?
To finally accept you’re beneath me…
Oh, I know that you never say that, at least publicly but then you didn’t have to really. The minute Katya had to take a stance for you and gift the World Championship match is proof enough and why did she do this? Not because of you deserve it, not because it’s the right thing to do for SCW? No, it’s because of fear, your fear of the realization that I can take it all away, what is that you ask? I’ll explain shortly. But I want to ask a question first, did you look in the mirror and finally realize that this career you are so proud of, still young and vibrant, still can wrestle in the ring but when the people stopped caring about you, when your wife and CHBK planned this ruse on Kennedy Street, you could have easily looked them right in the eyes and told them… No, right?
That didn’t happen and why?
You had already accepted defeat.
I never have, matter of fact I used the feud with Ravyn to give me that resolve. I didn’t cry or whine and complain to anyone that would hear my pleas. I didn’t allow for the boss’s daughter to take a hold of my path and weaponize me for someone else’s gain or petty revenge on good old daddy? No, no one controls Sienna Swann and those I have standing behind me are the ones who believe in my ability to lead the SCW into the next decade as it’s World Champion. I already made it Syren and it bothers you that a woman with your name, one so used to the marquee, the flashing lights, the standard bearer in the SCW is no longer the talk of the town anymore….
I AM.”
A small smirk comes across the face of Sienna, staring into the camera with her icy blue eyes. She knows just how tough this match will be, Cassidy Carter adds a new wrinkle that will also put a hinderance on her way to victory over Syren. Sienna hates Dark Fantasy, she wishes they would just disappear and never be seen again but there is a respect for Syren, if anything for her accomplishments, she could care less about the person, herself. She looks back at the camera and continues to speak….
“Unfortunately, in your mind, you don’t see the underlining truth, Syren. I’ve watched your wars with Regan Street, Selena Frost, Amy Chastaine and others. I see your bloodbaths with Rachel Tatum Lee formerly Frost so I know how hard you fight. Hell I remember the time when you and I stepped in the ring in front of my home country, in MY hometown of Johannesburg, South Africa where family, friends, people that I brought to the arena came and watched me and you put on a hell of a match that in the end you may have won on that night but I was still proud of, knowing that I was not only ready to compete with the likes of you but I showed that I was close and in only a matter of time, I could one day be World Champion. It was an honor to wrestle you Syren because on that night….
You proved to me that you’re the measuring stick in the SCW.
That is why I challenged you last year, Syren! Did you think that I did it just to blow smoke up your ass? Placate your ego? You think I did it to make myself look good and put me in a prime spot? After all this time, I wasn’t ever good enough to challenge you, so obsessed with wrestling Kennedy Street, it was about the title, always the title. See, I think you were afraid that the same results wouldn’t repeat themselves from 2016. The reason I challenged you was more than just to “Erase the Past”. I know better than anyone that I can never erase what you’ve accomplished, the tales of Syren, the lore of “So Totally Awesome” will forever be etched in the history books of this company, I cannot change that…..
What I can do though?
Erase a part of your legacy.
The whole reason you’re even in this match, why this PPV was called “Making Things Right”, properly named by that little trollop who has serious daddy issues, can be hidden behind this whole idea of you deserving a shot thanks to Katya. But it runs deeper than that doesn’t it, Syren? Because with the moments drawing closer you realize more and more that after 30 minutes, I stand to erase a part of your legacy. After tomorrow night, when I leave the winner, I become the LONGEST reigning SCW World champion of ALL time. What then? Is this the reason behind your pathetic desperation? I didn’t challenge you for anything other than picking the absolute best wrestler I knew on the roster so that I may prove for the final time, once and for all that I had arrived, and the FUTURE WAS NOW. That wasn’t good enough for you, was it, Syren? Wrestling Sienna Swann at RTG XV, the Past, the Future, something had to give and yes, it did….
Your fragile ego, it shattered.
Why? Because once upon a time people asked if I was the next Kelcey Wallace or the next Syren. When I first joined SCW I thought about it, but deep down I knew I wasn’t a clone of either of you. Who would really want that? No, you see when I look in the mirror, I know I am Sienna Swann and neither of you are in my league now. While you pull strings behind the scenes, I wanted to face the very best, that is how I came to prominence and it’s how I will stay here.
Did I ever back down from any fight? No.
Do I choose my battles? No.
Do I tend to skip matches and only wrestle when I feel like it? No.
I show up every day as a fighting Champion and you of all people want to criticize me for taking a day off here or there to pursue my other career as being the most sought out woman who you should be thanking. I open doors for women like you in an industry that wouldn’t even think twice, I am the reason everything you wear looks sexy on you… All the talk about rematches, maybe you should not have played those games with Street, then? Easier said than done, your ignorance is bliss but here is some cliff notes. You gave her resolve, you gave her a purpose and just like that I took it from her and now she is on a downward spiral, completely out of the picture thanks to me and you have the audacity to make demands?
You’re always wanting to cry foul until someone finally listened like a spoiled little child who can’t get her way. So, listen Syren, you can chow down on those sour grapes because things aren’t going to get any easier from here on out even with Katya in your back pocket. After tomorrow night, you will have to look in the mirror and start asking yourself some seriously hard questions about where you want to go from here on out because changes are ever fluid and they are changing as a new breed is forging here in SCW. I know it because I’m ahead of the curve, you’re still stuck in a time when you were relevant and to think I put you on a pedestal, I thought that you were a larger than life character whose whole game was to be a role model. Secretly I admired that about you when I came to the SCW, you stuck to your guns through think and thing. Fought against all odds at times if you could believe that. While at Ante Up I knew kids, who wanted to be just like you, now I can imagine they want to take you out of the picture when they progress to your level so that you may wallow back in your own little world. You can then tell your wife that you couldn’t do what she did two years ago and that I welcome her to try again.
But of course, your true colors have shown haven’t they now? Those that supported you now boo you like they do me but for two very different reasons. For you it’s disappointment because that’s what your M.O is these days, for me it’s out of jealousy for having what they don’t. The Looks, the money, the blossoming careers, I could go on but why should I have all the fun. When this isn’t about fun, tomorrow is about this title and the hope it brings to SCW. What hope would you give us should you leave as champion Syren? I wouldn’t feel hopeful I know that much. Me? I gave these people hope when I walked away from a career ending injury, when spread my wings and made the promise that I would ascend into the Main Event and your territory. I’ve done more than that, Syren, by taking it over.
You all doubted me, matter of fact, you paid Sienna Swann no attention until I won the World Championship and then suddenly, you started calling me out for a match that you refused when I asked? Another display of how far the mighty have fallen. You do understand that this won’t last forever. Sooner rather than later, that question will be present itself. How much more do you have? Let me guess, beating records like Jason Zero? Is that why you still do this? Are you that big of a megalomaniac to be the center of everyone’s attention and top of all the stats in this company?
When this is all over and they look back to this very moment, Syren? Like Cassidy Carter who I haven’t even mentioned for I see her as a roach when the lights come on ready to squash? It will be then….
They all speak and say….
This was the night everything was Made Right….
As Sienna Swann is now the NEW standard, the NEW brand and the NEW face of the SCW while I take apart bit by bit pieces of your legacy, such as the length of your reign and then the combined title reigns… Oh what fun THAT will be.”
Biting down on her jaw, Sienna has a serious tone, ready to do battle with Syren and Cassidy Carter. She stands by the Hollywood sign, the Twins behind her both looking on, LEO in the distance, Laura off camera. Sienna will look to break Syren’s record of longest reigning World Champion and will come one step closer to that by denying Syren and Cassidy. She looks back and talks into the camera….
“Do you know what scares you, Syren? CHBK, Ravyn, Katya? Even Cassidy? That 2018 was only the beginning of Sienna Swann, it was my coming of age party, for I brought SCW to prominence once again. SCW fans wanted something new, something fresh. Their wish was granted the day I walked into this company though most will want to refute that, and claim I was just some hot model trying to take the place of a real athlete?
I am not only a real athlete, I am the most pure and greatest athlete this company has seen. I have broken bones, I have broken hearts, I have broken records and now I am going to break YOU. What you’ve done Syren then and now means nothing to me. We all see the REAL you now and I must admit it’s comical, sad but comical. You and Cassidy have absolutely no idea what I am capable of and knowing that there is no D. in my corner and this little battle of power has affected all of us that could mean Katya may be in charge for at least a small period of time….
Then I will cripple her authority by making sure you, Syren are not World Champion. Insult me by turning down my challenge and then expect me to accept with open arms when I hold the World Title I won after beating you and two other former World Champions at RTG XV? No, I don’t give a damn about being Totally Jealous, look at me bitch, there is nothing that I want from you….
In fact, you are JEALOUS of me, how quaint that the tables have turned. I am the Future, the Present and everything that comes with responsibility of being the greatest World Champion of all time. I made an impact from day ONE. Sure, I know I was with that scoundrel, Silas Mason as a replacement for Kelcey Wallace, but I always knew deep down I was more. 2018 I proved that with the fans voting for me as your Female Wrestler of the Year. The Match of the Year with Selena Frost when I outlasted her and became the Iron Angel. Stable of the Year where I came to fruition and watched the past fizzle away without even a whimper and will your Ballad be played next Syren?
Tomorrow night I’ll prove why those votes weren’t wasted on me and the Beauty Factory. For I provide a service, one the fans can finally have a reason to tune in and enjoy and not the same drab, catchphrases and broken records supplied by Syren. No more lame jokes and shenanigans that are simply garbage on Television thanks to Cassidy Carter. At the last Breakdown I watched you two beat each other up, it was amusing but trust me when I tell you that tomorrow night here in Los Angeles, where the stars come out at night, where they look at Sienna Swann as a celebrity bigger than anything the SCW has had or ever will have?
On my own Red-Carpet Premiere.
Where they will all witness not just an evolution, they will be a part of progress and the changing of the guard for no little girl with some abuse of power will have a say in it. Triple Threat rules means no rules, do as your must Syren, bring the whole group of them, I will bring mine. As for Cassidy, you are simply here for one reason…..
To give Syren a chance.
And now Katya, I want to say something to you.
Jump off now….
Dark Fantasy is sinking faster than the Titanic, sweetie.”
The Truelove Twins crack up a little laughing, LEO nods in approval while Sienna holds her World Championship over her shoulder, lifting it up and showing off the gold. She is a proud Champion and looks to continue that momentum moving forward. She turns again toward the camera and speaks….
“I will continue to rise and now, after tomorrow night, I will rightfully take my spot at the top of this company without any doubt or lack of respect. I will beat the greatest woman wrestler in the world today not named Regan Street. I will shut the whorish mouth of the most vile, disgusting and unworthy tramp to ever challenge for a World Championship in Cassidy Carter…..
Continuing to give you the gift, yes the gift of Beauty.
Not with one…
But TWO Kisses….
As they both will sleep soundly….
In the CITY OF ANGELS.”
Sienna holds up the World Championship and smirks. The Twins and LEO both nod as Swann winks and spreads her arms facing the City of Los Angeles…..
FADE TO BLACK
