All-Star Roxi Issue #87: No More
« on: August 10, 2023, 07:50:34 AM »
{The scene opens up in Roxi and Keira’s home gym, where Roxi is once again working out in preparation for her match against Krystal Wolfe/Sin. Roxi’s workout is rather instense as she is drenched in sweat breathing heavily, leaning against the wall to catch her breath. After a few seconds, she picks her head up, breathing in through her nose and out her mouth to speed up the process. After relaxing her breathing, she sits down, in a meditative pose to collect herself. She can then hear Keira’s footsteps as she heads down the stairs from the first floor. This doesn’t stop Roxi from continuing to maintaining her focus, until Keira is at the base of the training mats, and Roxi can simply feel her wife staring at her.}

 

Roxi – Yes?

 

{Roxi says without opening her eyes which takes Keira aback for just a moment before Keira clears her throat.}

 

Keira – I was just wondering how training was coming along.

 

Roxi – It's at its usual pace. But that’s not why you’re down here.

 

Keira – You know you didn’t have to do this.

 

{Roxi opens her eyes and looks at her wife, before sighing.}

 

Roxi – Yes, I did, and yes, I do.

 

Keira – I know that it’s not great, given all that’s happened. 

 

Roxi – That's why I’m doing this.

 

Keira – But you don’t have to, that’s my point. I’m going to finish this once and for all at Violent Conduct. You don’t need to get your hands dirty. This is MY fight.

 

Roxi – It was. But people are getting broken bones and attacked. Even you. I know how badly you want to finish this, trust me, I do. But the fact remains that I cannot simply sit back and let someone else get hurt because this is different than last time.

Keira – It's still Sin. And nobody knows Sin better than me.

 

{Roxi stares at Keira intensely.}

 

Keira – Not much better than you, but still, she was in MY body.

 

Roxi – And I drove her out. But it’s not about you this time. Not entirely. That’s why you’ve been attacked, it’s why she’s seemingly a step ahead all the time. At the end of the day, this is as much for you as it is for everyone else. Myself included.

 

Keira – But you know what Sin is capable of. You know that it was far worse outside of SCW. Now that you’re taking up the fight, it could end up being that bad.

 

Roxi – And there’s no one else, I’d rather have in that position. I will take care of this situation and nobody else will get hurt between now and Violent Conduct.

 

Keira – I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Krystal can be dangerous in her own right, and Sin is only ramping up that level of violence. She could attack at any time. 

 

Roxi – Not while the big prize is sitting in front of her.

 

Keira – Don't talk like that. 

 

Roxi – Don’t you trust me?

 

{Keira goes to answer, but stops.}

 

Keira – Of course I trust you.

 

Roxi – Then let me do what I need to do. I will take care of this. You just need to be ready when your time comes.

 

Keira – I'm not going to sit back and watch her try and hurt you!

 

Roxi – I don’t either, because that’s not what’s going to happen. When you time comes, I know you’ll be ready. Until then, I’ve got this.

 

{Keira goes to speak again, but stops and thinks, before looking at Roxi and nodding.}

 

Keira – Fine. I will get ready, and I will be ready.

 

{Roxi nods.}

 

Roxi – Thank you.

 

{Keira nods and then she leaves as Roxi continues to meditate and the scene fades.}

Hello, SCW.

 

I wish I could be doing this under different circumstances, but alas, here we are. 

When this whole thing with Krystal Wolfe kicked off, I was a bit indifferent about it. Krystal was known to say things like the things she said about me, and about everyone else and I wasn’t too bothered. Although I am not one to back down from any challenge, it appeared that Krystal made herself public enemy number one and as such, it was going to be a while before this really got to where I was going to have to step in. Krystal didn’t seem to be in too big of a hurry either.

And then, Krystal started trying to hurt people, and that is when Keira stepped in. 

So, I didn’t believe at that point that I needed to also step in. Keira was quite happy with retirement at that time. So, for her to step back into the ring and deal with Krystal meant a lot to Keira. Because Krystal was a friend. A rival, an opponent to test herself with. And now that had gone downhill fast. But again, that was Keira’s fight. I wasn’t going to step in and spoil my wife coming back to the ring. She made that decision, and it didn’t need me to do anything. 

But now, things are obviously different.

I don’t know how or why Sin decided to come back and crawl out from under the rock she was banished to, but she did. I thought Keira and I had finally rid both SCW and the world of that monster a long time ago. I have had my fill of dealing with Sin and I just maybe just a tad hopeful that that was going to be the end of it. Keira put that to rest. It caused enough problems for everyone and it didn’t need to be drug up again. It should have died last year. It was over.

But, I suppose that evil doesn’t really die. It simply changes shape.

And now, Sin has taken the shape of Krystal Wolfe.

If this was just Krystal Wolfe, then I wouldn’t be standing here in front of you. I wouldn’t be preparing to deal with this problem. I’d be focusing on other things and letting Keira handle it. But since Sin wishes to continue to not just try and hurt people, but to injure and break bones, that is a line I’m not allowing her to cross again. 

That is why I stepped in. Nobody else, is going to get hurt after this. If Sin wishes to hurt somebody, then she is more than welcome to try and hurt me. She couldn’t get the job done before, and this time will be no different. Because I know Sin, better than everyone except my wife. I’m the one who released her in the first place. I’m the one who stood up when no one else would. I’m the one who outsmarted her before. I’m one of the reasons that she took so long to come back.

 
So, I hope that Sin is ready to get right back into the ground and remember to stay away from this world from now on. Better men, better women better monsters have threatened me and I am still here. If Sin thinks that this is just going to be me taking bullets, she is sadly mistaken. I may end up apologizing to my wife, because after Sunday, Sin may not be in any shape to make it to Violent Conduct.   

 
I’m going to put an end to this, or at the very least, I’m going to make sure Sin understands what she has gotten herself into.

And if Krystal is in there, this isn’t going to count, but there will be time for that later. More important to me, is that Sin suffers. 

And I’m going to take great joy in making her suffer.


Because I'm not trapped in a match with her.

She's trapped in a match, with me.
 

See you in Rio.
