~With Anthony~

Well, it wasn't long before I thought was gonna happen happened: Eimi suffered a fractured wrist that she'll need surgery on her wrist, but she was gonna be in the hospital for some time.

So, I called Hunter and ask if I can stay in Japan to help Eimi with his wrist. And sure enough, he told me that I can stay there as long as I wanted because loved ones come first more than anything and I'm allowed to come back whenever I'm ready.

However, Eimi was really upset when she realized that her wrist was broken and she couldn't compete at the Hana Kimura Memorial show.

Not to mention that Eimi was gonna compete on the show and was going to face VENY, one of Hana's very close friends, and now I learned that Utami was going to face her, which isn't that much of a problem.

However, Aleki, Hana's former fiancé and Kyoko's son-in-law, had challenged me to a match at the show. And in short, Eimi and I had to talk about it, considering that it was a show she was looking forward to compete at, but Utami called me up and asked if she would be willing to take Eimi's place while we continued to talk about my potential match with Aleki.

So I pushed it through to Kyoko and asked if there was any way we can make it work, and sure enough, Eimi can host the show with her while Utami took her place and I was allowed to compete at this event thanks to Hunter allowing me to stay in Japan to help Eimi out with her injury.

I had my gear with me, just in case I was going to compete in Japan, and it worked.

I do know that Aleki had retired after Wrestlemania, thanks to a heart attack that completely altered his career, but he was willing to go through one more match, even though he already had one the night prior with the Texas Deathmatch with Rock, and that being with me at the next Hana Kimura memorial in a few days.

And to be honest, I thought Aleki taking on Rock was very good and it really brought me back to the old days of ECW with Cactus Jack, Terry Funk, Bubba Ray Dudley, Sabu, Sandman, and many other ECW wrestlers were killing themselves to entertain the fans.

I considered it my match of the weekend, and I know a lot of people would disagree with me on that, considering that I was a part of it on Night 2, but I can't say that Sunday is my favorite because the others deserve their flowers more than me.

I was honored to do it, but I want to put Aleki over because he loved Hana so much, so I knew how much this show means to him.

Also, Eimi probably knew how upset I was when she got hurt, because she stripped down to let me to fuck her however I wanted as she was in the gorgeous lingerie I've ever seen and she basically showed off her ass to me.

As everyone can probably guess, I fucked her goddamn brains out, and she was enjoying it too.

I mean, Eimi didn't have to do that for me, but she insisted that I do this. She eventually convinced me and that told me I had gotten with the most beautiful girl on the face of the earth and I'm happy I'm with her.

Anyway, we arrived at the show, provided by me driving Eimi and I to the event, we met up with Kyoko and Aleki, who was very excited to meet me.

Me: Hey, Aleki!

Aleki: Hey, Tony!

We shook hands as I hugged Kyoko while Eimi hugged Aleki and Kyoko as well.

Kyoko: ちょうどいいタイミングでした。そして、えいみちゃん、まだ立っていてくれて本当によかったです。 (Just in time. And Eimi-chan, I'm really glad to see you still standing.)

Eimi: ハナは私にとってとても大切な存在だったので、これを逃したくありませんでした。 (Hana meant a lot to me, and I didn't want to miss this.)

Kyoko: ここに来てくれてありがとう。あなたには分からないでしょうね。 (I appreciate you coming here. You have no idea.)

Me: Aleki, just know that whatever you wanna do, I'm all for it. You want this match, I'm gonna bring it to you, and in return, you bring it.

Aleki: Hey, if you're wanting me to bring it, then you're gonna need to beg me to take it back.

We both laughed and bro hugged as Eimi giggled a bit from the joke. Kyoko, being Aleki's mom-in-law, she could definitely tell that Aleki is hurting and checked on him.

I could tell he was too. I can just tell that Aleki still misses Hana and wishes she was still here, even though it's been four years later.

I heard he and Yuria got together a few months ago, so that was awesome to know that he found love again, but I hope he's in the right state of mind when our match happens.

Kyoko: Sweetie, you can go on ahead. I will get you when it time.

Aleki: Okay. Love you, mom.

Kyoko: I love you too, son.

They both hugged as Aleki shook my hand, hugged Eimi, and walked away.

Seeing this mother and son relationship really makes me smile, but also emotional. They really have a special bond and I'm sure Hana's passing brought them closer together.

Aleki's a good kid, and he's always loved Hana to where he was gonna marry her and give her the world, but now she's not here anymore. It's just not fair. It's not right.

I think I'm gonna let him pin me for the win because he deserves that more than anyone than I've ever known. I wanna give him some of my own closure by letting him win the match.

With Kyoko, however, she started to get a bit emotional from Aleki stepping away for a moment.

Me: Are you okay?

Kyoko: I am. I just love that boy.

Eimi: そうです。彼はとても優しい人ですが、悪いことがいくつか起こりました。 (Yeah, he is. He's a very sweet guy who had some bad things happen to him.)

Me: あなたは間違っていません。 (You ain't wrong.)

Kyoko: 右。 (Right.)

Me: さて、映美ちゃん、今夜の試合はメインイベントなので、詩美ちゃんやVENYちゃんから話があると思います。 (Now, Eimi-chan, I'm sure Utami-chan and VENY-chan might need to talk to you about the match tonight, as it's the main event.)

Eimi: 何ですか？いいえ、違います。 (What? No, they don't.)

Me: 確かにそうですね。 (Sure they do.)

I then looked at Kyoko with my eyeballs moving and then Eimi had an idea of what I was talking about, nodded, and started walking away as I had to talk to Kyoko in private, about having Aleki win the match instead of me.

Kyoko: What that about?

Me: I want to know if you can change the booking of me not winning the match against Aleki. I want to put him over.

Kyoko: Nani?

Me: I can tell how much Hana means to him, and how much he cared and loved her, and I can just tell that his eyes are displaying the pain whenever he's talking about her. I'm telling you, I feel really sorry for him, and I wanna put him over.

Kyoko: If that what you want, you got it.

We hugged as I had to get ready for the match, but before I did, I pulled out at least ¥500,000 yen ($3,400 USD) and put it in Kyoko's hand, as she was shocked by what I was doing.

Kyoko was numb as she saw the money in her hand as she tried to talk me out of giving her the money...

Kyoko: Anthony-kun, no, it too much.

Me: Hey...

I closed up her hand and said with a smile...

Me: I'm the one who's wrestling on your show. And the charity needs it more than I do .

Kyoko was feeling touched by my donation and I held her hand, just to let her know that I'm always gonna support Remember Hana no matter what.

I then left to get into my gear as Aleki and I said a prayer, just for not only comfort for Hana's soul, but for a great match tonight.

If we can somehow surpass VENY vs Utami, I think this would make this not only match of the night, but match of the year. That's what I'm hoping for, but we'll have to see how we go.

~Two Hours Later~

When Aleki and I met up and he went out first to his music.

He didn't do his "Let's go, you assholes" bit, well, mainly due to his heart and he can't really do that anymore, but he hyped up the crowd nonetheless and when Eimi saw him, she smiled and opened the ropes for him.

I could tell that she was trying not to cry, and I don't blame her.

And before Aleki entered the ring, they both hugged. It really told me that they really have a deep friendship and Hana's passing really brought them closer.

To my knowledge, they didn't like each other, but after Hana died, they both asked for forgiveness for each other's hate and that's how they became really good friends and I'm all for it.

Once Aleki was done making his entrance, I went out to my music playing and when I entered everyone had popped for me.

I was all for being given a chance to wrestle here as I saw Eimi opening the ropes for me. So I went up, hugged her, and went between the ropes to finish my entrance.

When my music was finished, I took off my jacket and looked to get started on wrestling Aleki, and he seems to be ready for the fight.

Before the bell rang, we walked up to each other and shook hands, letting everyone know that this is a friendly competition for both of us and not a hard hitting rival vs rival match.

Aleki: You ready for a fight?

Me: Not the first time I've been in one. May the best wrestler win.

Aleki: Same to you. Let's do it for her.

Me: Let's do this.

We nodded, let go, let go and got back to our corners as the ref looked at us, asking if we're ready. Once we nodded, he signalled for the bell, and it was rung, while the fans in attendance clapped in a rhythm.

Let's go, Aleki.

(A/N: Happy early birthday Hana! Rest in peace!)
