Twas the night before Illumination...

[OrochiGeese]

*We fade into the Orochi-O's Inc training facility. Holly, Sandy Morton and Linda Parker are gathered around a ring all wearing workout gear: Which for them, from Holly to Linda to Sandy, is in increasing order of sluttyness. It's to the point it's less workout gear, more "scraps of sport". Sandy and Linda roll into the ring, Sandy trying her best to really grind into the mat, eliciting a laugh from Linda and an eye roll from Holly.*

[Holly:] "Listen, I've been there, ok? I was the "joke slut" on the PW-W roster. I turned some heads, dropped some pants, and got the cheap thrills. But you know what I learned?"

*Sandy opens her eyes wide in fear*

[Sandy:] "Math?"

[Linda:] "I HATE math!"

[Sandy:] "Numbers make me feel dirty. And not in a good wa-"

[Holly:] "I SAID DO YOU KNOW WHAT I FUCKIN LEARNED!?"

*Sandy and Linda nod*

[Holly:] "That the less serious I was, the more serious my opponents seemed to be. Whether it was a Dod or a FREAKING BEAR. Who here, in this room right now, almost got eaten by a bear?"

[Linda:] "Almost? You poor thing. See, Sands..and then mine...and then Sands again boyfriend was nicknamed Bear. So like, both of us. Multiple times."

[Sandy:] "Sometimes at the same multiple times."

[Holly:] "You called me up at 4am last night drunk, Sandy. You said - "OMG HOLLS IM SO F'n WASTED BUT DONT WE HAVE TO WRESTLE LIKE TOMORROW OR SOMETHING? IM SCARED" Then you cried until you forgot why you were crying. Don't give me a reason to make you remember."

[Linda:] "Ouch."

[Sandy:] "So like, that professor doctor or something, she got fired. And I think she's gonna be angry at me, like I had something to do with it."

[Holly:] "You did. You had everything to do with it. You caused it. We planned it. You were there."

*Sandy gives a blank look and shrugs her shoulders*

[Holly:] "Fine, so that's it for your motivation. Linda, you at least have Juli on your side."

[Linda:] "Ugh, fashion disaster!!"

[Holly:] "Riiight. You've got your priorities all right. So I don't know exactly how to put this, I'm just gonna come out and say it. There's a good to great chance you're not gonna survive that match."

*Linda's face registers the shock and immediately she pulls out her blackberry. Yeah, out of her workout gear. She has a pouch.*

[Holly:] "Did you hear what I just said!?"

[Linda:] "Uh yeah...posting."

*Sandy pulls out her cell phone and is wide-eyed.*

[Sandy:] "OMG! DISLIKE!! But you're gonna get so many posts on facebook now!"

[Holly:] "Do you even care to know why you may be ring mat sludge?"

[Linda:] "Did you forget I knew Alicia Gordon?"

[Holly:] "Did not forget that, thanks though."

[Linda:] "And that Hilly Cany-"

[Holly:] "Do NOT steal my nicknames for opponents. That is not tolerated."

[Linda:] "She doesn't like kill people."

[Holly:] "Krieger does. You cop that attitude with her, you do anything in that ring other then wrestle your hardest, and I swear she will beat you before your opponents ever get to the ring. Do not waste her time."

[Sandy:] "She's pretty serious, Linds."

[Linda:] "And I guess she's gonna be like...wanting real bad to get to dinner?"

[Holly:] "What?"

[Linda:] "I mean, look at her! She looks like she'll EAT Alicia and Haley!"

[Sandy:] "Juli's a lesbian?"

[Linda:] "I meant like, food and stuff. But you know what, she IS totally butch and stuff."

[Sandy:] "Yeah, but don't say that around her or she might try to break your neck."

[Linda:] "Wait, she can understand English?"

[Sandy:] "...Actually I don't know. I think she might be Mexican or something."

*Holly has been watching them wide-eyed for the last few seconds until she lets out a weak groan.*

[Holly:] "She's GERMAN, not Mexican!"

[Sandy:] "Same thing!"

[Linda:] "Ok Carlos Mencia."

[Holly:] "Good luck girls."

*Holly turns around and starts walking away.*

[Sandy:] "But...but Holls?"

[Holly:] "You don't think I have my own training to do? One of us has a Title shot in two days and it sure as hell isn't either of you. It probably never will be, and I'm not saying that to motivate you. I've been busting my ass trying to find any time I have to train, any time when I'm not being HUNTED, or re-orienting Geese to reality, or stopping my brother from getting arrested. So I take a few minutes out of my schedule to help you two and for what!? All I hear are two little girls who have no perspective. And I'm sick of it."

*Sandy looks a bit upset now*

[Holly:] "You two either both put on something resembling a match at Illumination, or I'm cutting you both loose. I have a willing student in Inza G. that would kill to get on that PPV and after all the work I did to get you two to this point, this is what I see. Just forget it. Wrestle or get the fuck out of my life. I have no patience for baggage like you two anymore. Make your choice."

*Holly picks up her towel and walks out of the room. After a few seconds...*

[Linda:] "Epic PMS."

[Sandy:] "At least we know she and Geese are using protection."

[Linda:] "So...bar next door?"

[Sandy:] "Shouldn't we like...train?"

[Linda:] "Like that girl is serious. She needs all the help she can get and she threatens us with walking away? Whatevs, Sands. She's not going anywhere. But you and I, we are going places. Right to the top."

[Sandy:] "Really? You think?"

[Linda:] "Yeah, I'm tired of having the paper bag on my head with the face painted on the back."

[Sandy:] "Sooo true, so true."

*The two of them walk out of the ring and go to the showers as this abomination of a dialogue ends*
