~Nothing Set In Stone~
Shotzi POV
My "conversation" with Team Kick was short lived mainly due to a loud sound interrupting our temporary argument. The door flung open, out came three people from the shining light that temporarily brightened the room.
Shotzi: "That must be him."
Dakota: "Which one?"
Shotzi: "What do you mean which o-."
I'm cut short by seeing the unknown wrestler. He looked almost like a hero from my dreams. It was a sight for sore eyes.
Shotzi: "U-Ummmmmm......."
My face burnt up, like a corpse inside of an incinerator. It was a little weird to say the least. I never have known this person before yet I feel oddly attached to him. But I know that I shake it off fairly quickly........yet I don't leave those feelings behind.
(M/n) POV
(M/n): "This the place Riley been saying is a nuthouse?"
Jeremy: "Did you actually call it a nuthouse?"
Riley: "Maybe I did. Maybe I didn't. Who's to say?"
My feet move along the hard cold floor and move just a few steps forward towards the three weird girls. They seemed to be giving me weird looks. Especially the punk looking one. Who I instantly knew to be Shotzi Blackheart.
From the green hair to the piercings, to her still somewhat unique outfit. It was really hard not to spot her because of how different she looks from the rest of the crowd. Even though the other two weren't no slouches themselves. For they were Team Kick, Tegan Nox and Dakota Kai.
However, to the normal eye, some would say they were nothing but foreigners walking amongst a sea of normies.
(M/n): "Greetings. I am (M/n) (L/n). And before you say anything, I know you as Shotzi Blackheart, and you as Dakota Kai and you as Tegan Nox. I know I don't have to pay myself on the back for that one."
Riley: "Guess what dummy. No one is impressed by your knowledge. Just weirded out."
(M/n): "You're one tough nut to crack you know that?"
Riley grumbles under her breath while I divert my attention back to the three who seemed fairly impressed that I knew. Well, all except Dakota, who just seemed bored and uninterested in what I had to say or why I was here.
Shotzi: "Nice one. For a rookie..."
Tegan: "Veteran..."
Shotzi: "ROOKIE!!!....You got a bigger noggin than I thought."
(M/n): "Uhhh.....was that an insult or?"
Shotzi: ".....No....Not it was not."
(M/n): "Pretty sure it sounded like one though."
Dakota: "It wasn't."
(M/n): "Ok. Just making sure is all."
Dakota just crossed her arms while smirking at me. She didn't seem like she hated me or even disliked me, but seemed more interested in me, this became more apparent the longer I spent with her, or any one of the three standing right before me.
Dakota: "You're quite an odd fellow aren't you?"
(M/n): "Odd? Oh please enlighten me captain."
Riley POV
(M/n) chatting it up with three of "NXT's finest wrestlers" as Paul would've said and acted almost like a child being educated on new tricks in math. Jeremy clearly was getting frustrated due to how long our guest spoke with our employees and it didn't help with him constantly tapping his watch.
Jeremy: "Does he always have to speak with people for this long?"
Riley: "He loves a good chat. What's wrong with that?"
Jeremy: "Nothing at all. Just informing you that we have less than ten minutes before the boss cancels the meeting!"
I roll my eyes before pulling on (M/n)'s ear which had him both saying "Ow" and giving me a confused look.
(M/n): "What? Can't you see that I'm in the middle of something?"
Riley: "I'm not blind. But I'm not stupid either. We brought you here for a reason. So I ask that you kindly end the conversation."
(M/n): "But I just started ha-."
Riley: "KINDLY!"
(M/n): "Alright I'll do it."
I push him back upwards as he ends the conversation with the women who looked a little miffed but could get over it.
Riley: "Oh how sad, oh well, you'll meet each other later if you sign this. Now, come with me."
??? POV
???: "Where is he?"
It has been a decent amount of time since I heard he had arrived, all that ballyhoo could be all for naught. Or, perhaps it wasn't.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
???: "Come in."
Jeremy: "Sir, he is here."
???: "Bring him in."
Jeremy twirls his fingers around as the door is now ajar and two more people come in. With Miss Brown coming in first and the man of the hour shows up next.
???: "You must be the one I have heard all about. Please have a seat why don't you?"
The young gentleman has a seat three before mine and looks around the room before changing his perspective to where I am in it.
???: "New guy, how well do you think he'll do Jeremy?"
Jeremy: "I think he'll do well here sir."
???: "And you Mrs Brown?"
Riley: "To be frank, I don't think he has a chance. He probably should have just gotten the last ticket back home."
???: "At least you're honest."
(M/n): "A little bit too honest."
???: "I heard that."
(M/n): "Whoops. My bad."
???: "Hmph. Are you happy to be here or are you immediately thinking of yourself as something huge?"
(M/n): "Happy to be here."
Riley: "I would've expected the latter."
(M/n): "I would never."
???: "Miss Brown is allowed to say as much as she wants. Sometimes to the detriment of herself and the people around her yet she is important because of her personality."
Riley: "Thank you sir."
???: "I didn't ask for your thanks."
Riley: "But you sai-."
???: "I know what I said. I just meant for in the moment or before the end of the quote."
Riley: "Understood."
(M/n): "Are you sure she ain't your lapdog or something?"
He seemed to be not arrogant but looked like he could have an attitude behind him. So, like all people of authority, you must show him your place.
???: "Miss Brown. You are free to smack him upside the head."
Riley: "Will do sir."
*SMACK*
(M/n): "Owie! What was that for?"
???: "To tell you that this won't be easy, and I won't make it easy. You will be the only one to know if it's easy or if it's hard."
(M/n): "How will I know?"
???: "You'll know. By if you sign this or not, and you can have as much time as you'd like."
(M/n) POV
At this point, you'd probably know that I shouldn't have signed this deal, not because of the people in charge, just because of the events after that. However, I can't change the past, and instead I have to say that, all I saw was a sheet of paper with a blank to put my name. An ink pen was tossed to me as I thought very long and hard over this.
One the one hand, I would get some decent pay and be put on a big stage. On the other, was the events playing in front of my eyes. Despite this, I knew if I didn't sign this, I would just be sent back to Japan.
Riley: "Join us.....Join me."
I nod before taking the pen and signing my name. At first it was in ink, now I see it to be in blood.
Riley: "That's what I like to see. Welcome."
I slide the sheet of paper down to the man in the high chair as he looks at it and smiles to himself before extending his hand out to me. As I calmly shake it in order to provide a good image.
???: "Welcome to the WWE."
(M/n): "Happy to be aboard."
Riley pats me on the back as I stand up and was about to walk out but get interrupted by my new boss.
???: "Hang on just a second there ace. What size do you wear?"
(M/n): "Why exactly?"
Riley: "Just say it."
(M/n): "I can wear a medium but my mom just wants me to wear a lar-."
My speech is short lived due to there now being a t shirt now on my face. I hear my red haired associate giggle, a rare one from her that she may later deny as I pull it off my face and see the words in black on a gray shirt.
'PROPERTY OF WWE EST. 2013 WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT.'
(M/n): "Yep. That looks about right."
???: "Ha! Yep! That's exactly what it is. Now go give me some publicity shots."
Jeremy: "Whew boy! You must be so excited huh sir?"
???: "Absolutely Jeremy! Go get Paul he has got to see this!"
Riley: How happy must you be to be around a new family like this?"
(M/n): "The words I'm looking for I can't say, we're in a children's company."
Riley: "Getting kinda tense aren't ya?"
Her brown eyes reflected with mine as I ruffled up her hair while leaving her as a furious little woman.
Riley POV
Riley: "I-Ah-Did you?-Dah!!!"
???: "I told you you could smack him. I never said anything about stopping."
My lips form into a devilish grin while tapping my fingers against each other as I chop (M/n) in the head and he rubs it in pain.
(M/n): "Ow seriously?"
Riley: "Absolutely now change!"
Jeremy: "Yes please change! We need this photo as soon as humanly possible!"
(M/n): "Calm down you two! I'll be done in just a few seconds."
He goes into the nearest bathroom as we wait for him.
(M/n) POV
You thought that was a weird scenario. Wait, till you hear what I have in store. Like, how this happened.....
(M/n): "Now I can finally rela.............."
I have my shirt almost half way off when I see someone standing in front of me. It was Kacy Catanzaro. She just gave me a blank stare. Didn't say a word. My hands pull down my shirt onto my head as my face is now beat red from embarrassment.
(M/n): "I am very sorry miss Catanzaro. I didn't see you there."
Kacy: "It's quite alright. At least I wasn't on the toilet. Or pulling down my pants, then I would have to smack you."
She starts chuckling like I said a funny joke so I just of along with it. She moves her hair back while washing her hands.
(M/n): "Why aren't you screaming?"
Kacy: "Do you want me to scream? I could but you didn't walk in on me doing anything inappropriate so I think it's ok. As long as it's not a long string of occurrences and if you don't do it on purpose. It's ok. Just some random moment that occurred."
Kacy acted sweet to me, I mean, yeah she was short and still is, however, I knew something was off with her. I just didn't know what. Despite this, she left while telling me one thing as she opened the door.
Kacy:"Welcome to your new home by the way."
The tone in her voice made that sound very threatening like she was gonna have a hit man come after me and choke me with some piano wire. But I shrugged it off and changed shirts, with the two waiting outside and now a cameraman was there.
Riley: "Ya ready?"
(M/n): "Absolutely."
I was the only one who had this shirt but I got it on for a reason and had a few shots snapped and spread out across the globe for the internet to eat up.
(M/n): "Look at me in that shirt. Do you think I'll make it big."
Riley: "That's all up to you."
(M/n): "Then I'll see what I can do here."
Shotzi: "Aww, look at how cute you look in that shirt! I remember getting a shirt just like that in fact I still have it."
The punk woman had a bit more spunk and energy behind her voice this time. It was intriguing to me just how much it felt like she changed, I just met her not an hour ago and now she is treating me like her new best friend? I thought I could've gotten used to it.
However, I got shifted elsewhere, mainly by the one and only Triple H. You know, for him being in his fifties he still looks like he can go.
Paul: "Ay there kid. Welcome to the WWE. In fact, how about I get you into a little program called NXT? In fact, let's do it now."
He asks me to walk with him, but Riley asks him a question.
Riley: "What about dinner?"
He walks back as he addresses her simple question.
Paul: "We do this, in five hours."
