It was supposed to be their wedding anniversary.

It was a big deal. Every year Christina tried to make a big showy spectacle of it even though Seleana would have been happy just having dinner at home.

Not this year.

This year, Seleana had been home alone with the kids. Christina had been off making "appearances" with Mercedes Vargas and Alexandra had stormed out to look for her.

Seleana just sat with the children watching them play and pretending she didn't really want to scream her head off. Now she'd come back to where she and Alexandra had enjoyed dinner before she'd gone off looking for Christina to demand to know what the fuck she was doing.

Now it was just Seleana and the cake she had made herself to celebrate.

Seleana looks down at the slice of cake in front of her with the number seven candle on it. She lights the candle and nods while trying to hold back tears.

Seleana Zdunich: Grattis på årsdagen till mig.

She blows out the candle and nods as tears start to fall.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar dig Stjärna.

She looks down, unable to stop herself from  sobbing uncontrollably anymore.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag saknar dig.

She looks down and loses herself in her tears. As she starts to lose it funny, her phone rings. She picks it up and sees the name of her sister-in-law, Olive "Krigare" Zdunich. Nodding, she tries to pull herself together and paints on a smile.

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, Chickie, how's it?

Hearing the real emotion through the facade, Olive is taken aback.

Olive Zdunich: Sel, what's wrong? You sound like you've been sobbing hysterically.

Seleana bows her head, holding the phone as close as she can.

Seleana Zdunich: Idag är det vår bröllopsdag och Christina har inte kommit hem än. Alex gick bara ilsket för att leta efter henne.

Olive pauses for a second, tamping down her personal rage at this news. Olive had never really liked Christina and this was doing nothing to improve her opinion.

Olive Zdunich: Good on Alex.

She pauses again while Seleana tries not to just collapse back into tears.

Olive Zdunich: You're not gonna let this slide are you? I know the Zdunich sisters are forgiving to a fault BUT...

She pauses to take a deep breath.

Olive Zdunich: If you were to let this slide, I will fly down to SoCal personally, slap you silly to wake you up, then go hunting for Chrystalina and murder the bitch in cold blood myself!

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know what is happening. I am afraid she has fallen off the wagon on coke and drink and possibly cheating with Mercedes Vargas. Alex is looking but I do not know where she is supposed to be tonight.

She shakes her head again as the tears return.

Seleana Zdunich: I just wanted to have dinner. I make cake.

Seleana dissolves into sobs again.

Seleana Zdunich: What I do wrong?

The sobs come heavier and Olive's entire countenance changes.

Olive Zdunich: Sel, you did nothing wrong. Christina is just bound and determined, as always, to make everything about her.

Seleana just sits there sobbing.

Seleana Zdunich: Why she no come home? It anniversary and Friday the 13th. She love Friday 13th.

Olive sighs.

Olive Zdunich: There's no telling which brainie weasel is running things for her now but whichever one it is, it's not you. It's never been you, Sarabi. It's always her, it's always about her and it always will be if she doesn't change things.

She pauses, thinking things over again.

Olive Zdunich: And if your fears are founded, you can't fix her, Sel. She has to want to and if she doesn't there's nothing you can do but wait for that phone call.

Seleana shakes her head, trying to pull herself together to say something, anything to her sister-in-law.

Seleana Zdunich: I…Jag…

She tries toi stifle herself but she can't.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag svikit henne.

Olive audibly sits bolt upright at these words.

Olive Zdunich: You did not fail her, you did not let her down or any other permutation of that phrase. You've been a fucking saint to last as long as you have and this…

She motions at the phone knowing no one else can see it.

Olive Zdunich: This right here is why so many started using that hashtag against Crystalina so much.And do you know why it bothered her so much?

Seleana blinks through her tears.

Seleana Zdunich: No.

Olive Zdunich: Because she knows its true and it drives her fucking nuts!

Olive's voice gains in  both anger and intensity.

Olive Zdunich: She knows!

The anger turns cold.

Olive Zdunich: She knows she's doing wrong and it feeds on herself. The more she does wrong, the more she needs to medicate. The more she medicates, the more wrong she does and the worse it gets. It's her vicious cycle that she kickstarts and rides and the way she's going, she's gonna ride that cycle until it breaks and the crash will not be pretty.

She exhales heavily, her tone softening.

Olive Zdunich: You need to prepare yourself, Sel.

Seleana looks at her phone, worry mixing in with confusion and everything else.

Olive Zdunich: You need to prepare yourself that you might just need to run or to get that call that there is nothing to worry about anymore because the worst has already happened.

Her voice softens even more.

Olive Zdunich: You need to prepare yourself for either because no matter what, you're gonna be the one who has to tell Brit, Bray, Rori and E.   

Seleana shakes her head as she starts sobbing again with this new melancholy crashing into her existing despair. Seleana lets out a long, high-pitched wail and almost drops her phone just as Aledxandra comes back into the room. Alex rushes over and takes the Swedish woman into her arms, gently slipping the phone from her hand.

Olive Zdunich: Sarabi?

Alexandra nods, lifting the phone up to her face.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: I've got her.

Olive sighs, seemingly relieved.

Olive Zdunich: Thank God. I'm sorry this happened.

Alexandra nods sadly.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Me too.

She ends the call, sets the phone down and envelopes Seleana in an embrace to let the Swedish woman cry her eyes out.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: It's ok, I got you.

The camera opens on Seleana Zdunich sitting on the bed in the room she's sharing with her second wife and soon-to-be-tag-team-partner Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell, looking like she's almost rather be anywhere else but here right now.

Seleana Zdunich: So, here we are.

She looks around the room and nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Denver, Colorado.

She nods to the floor, visibly unhappy.

Seleana Zdunich: I cannot remember the last time I saw my wife.

She shakes her head, both in despair at the truth of that statement and the fact that she just said out loud to be heard by the general public.

Seleana Zdunich: Alex and I will be a team for the second time in the upcoming match here against Kayla Richards and her soon to be challenger, Frankie Holliday.

She smiles wryly to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: It is a match we will be underestimated and sold short in, ja?

Nodding affirmatively as if she knows the answer that will greet her on this, Seleana looks away for a second before looking back into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: I know.

She nods pointedly

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I know, this is Kayla so we have no chance because I am me and she is the Dream Killer, Ja?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I have heard this near every match I have ever had, so often that you are boring saying it again.

She shrugs as if it's nothing new at all.

Seleana Zdunich: I am certain Alex has heard this as well and I am certain you have said this and will say it many times to Frankie.

She manages a smile.

Seleana Zdunich: But as pointed out early here, we know each other while you are at cross purposes. I know Alex!

She nods pointely.

Seleana Zdunich: I know you, Alex. Who Dat Girl? Diamond Dat Girl!

Seleana nods as if Alexandra can hear her and is the only other person in the room.

Seleana Zdunich: You dat girl. You have been since before I met you and you will after we are all gone.

She almost spits in disgust.

Seleana Zdunich: Kayla can say whatever she wants. I know how she operate. I saw her before she came to SCW. She saw me get fired in Hybrid. I know she operates on lower level and play dirty.

Seleana glares into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: We are coming to show you that I am the Cat and Diamond is Dat Girl whether you like or not, Kayla.

She nods to the camera emphatically.

Seleana Zdunich: And you better be ready to work with Frankie or you will have a problem you never expected.

Seleana shrugs almost playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: You will lose to the one person you always thought beneath you and completely incapable of such things.

She points to herself in the chest.

Seleana Zdunich: You. the Dreamkiller Kayla Richards, the SCW World Bombshell Champion, will have lost to me because you were arrogant and stupid about things in this match.

Shaking her head, Seleana almost laughs.

Seleana Zdunich: How sad would that be for you?

Sitting on the bed in the bedroom she shares with her two wives, Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich and Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell, Seleana Zdunich scans over pictures of the family construction project. The rebuild of the Hollywood Hills house was proceeding smoothly. It would not be quick but it would return their home to its former glory proving that was what everyone wanted.

Most had agreed that was what was best, especially for the children.

Seleana and Alexandra were in agreement on the idea almost immediately. Christina had gone along with it once she'd made two other ideas known right away.

The first was just looking for another, bigger house to show off the combined star power of all three of them now. Both Seleana and Alexandra had thought about it knowing full well that Christina was likely to push for more and more because it was one of the things she tended to do. She liked to be flashy and make big, grandiose gestures for things. It was how both Seleana's vehicle and the zoo had happened.

The second was to build back but build it differently, bigger, more ostentatious, more grandiose, just more in general. Selena had smiled, shaking her head and almost laughing while Alexandra had done much the same. They had both known Christina would want to make a statement with the house.

A decision like this meant calls would need to be made and the children basically polled. Brittany and Brayden had both chimed in with ideas but had ultimately said they felt an attachment to the old house that overrode the family urge to make things bigger, better and crazier. Brittany's wife, Halo, had agreed with this sentiment. Brayden's new girlfriend, CRAVE, had as well since she had no real concept of what the house had really looked like anyway being relatively new to the area still. She really had no attachment one way or the other so anything was going to be bigger and better to her.

Aurora and Elijah had both been surprised to be consulted on anything, especially Elijah. This was a first for him. Before the adoption, Elijah had never had much of anything that was his, thus this had been an entirely new situation for him. Aurora had been poor, but her late birth mother had done her best to give her little girl what she could up until the day she rolled off this mortal coil. Both of them had voted for building it back as it had been because they had an intense emotional attachment to that house.

Seleana had simply smiled that the kids had just wanted their home back. Alexandra, too, had smiled at this idea. She knew what it was to have next to nothing and knew how much it meant to have something in that situation. Christina knew this herself as well and while she had been disappointed that no one wanted to go bigger, she had smiled in the end that her home had been so loved by those close to her.

As she looks at the pictures of the rubble being removed, Aurora and Elijah walk in and sit next to her on the bed.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy, is it really happening?   

Seleana nods and shows the pictures on her phone.

Seleana Zdunich:  They have started the work.

Elijah, still looking timidly cautious about everything, allows himself to be slightly excited.

Elijah Zdunich: Really?

Nodding, Seleana smiles and emphasizes the photographic evidence.

Seleana Zdunich:  They are not fake. I have been there on-location multiple times. Halo has gone by a few times as well. B-Brat has herself. Things are proceeding as we had hoped.

Elijah smiles widely and hugs his mother tightly, Aurora smiling as well in kind.

Aurora Zdunich: It'll be nice to be home again, won't it, E?

Elijah nods against his mother's chest. Seleana hugs him tightly as well, while Aurora joins into the embrace.

Aurora Zdunich: Come on, E, let's go blow some stuff up.

She grins as Elijah pulls back, excited all over again.

Aurora Zdunich: I love you, Mommy.

Elijah Zdunich: Love you, Mom.

Seleana smiles for then.

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja? I love you too.

She nuzzles both of them just before they take off running out the door, flying past Alexandra and almost running her over as they hurry to play together. She grins at them and steps into thr bedroom, sitting down next to Seleana.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: What's got them all revved up?.

Smiling, Seleana holds her phone forward.

Seleana Zdunich:  I show the pictures.

Alexndra smiles, nodding happily.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: The rebuild?

Seleana shows the photos in question.

Seleana Zdunich:  I not showing the kids other photos. They do not need to see you and Christina like that.

Smirking knowingly, Alexandra chuckles.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: No, we're not from Alabama like that.

Seleana snickers along with her.

Seleana Zdunich:  they will be excited enough seeing us as a team this weekend.

Alexandra's eyes flash.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: That's gonna be fun.

Seleana nods her agreement.

Seleana Zdunich:  They will bring the heat to us. Cassie will want to beat me in more ways than one. Harper will be right there with her friend. They will see what they are doing as going for justice.

Alexndra shrugs.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Let them.

Seleana leans in and kisses her passionately.

Seleana Zdunich:  Jag älskar dig!

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: I love you too!

Alexandra leans and they kiss again before going over the photos of the rebuild again.

Seleana Zdunich nods knowingly to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja, I know…

She continues nodding as she turns to the side.

Seleana Zdunich:  I know Cassie will be angry with me.

Almost snickering, Seleana

Seleana Zdunich:  She has been angry with me since Stockholm and I admit, a mistake was made…

She nods and points to herself.

Seleana Zdunich:  By me.

She nods to herself, shaking her head in shame and embarrassment

Seleana Zdunich:  For what it is worth, I am sorry I hit you. My intention and my target was not you. I was trying to hit Mercedes…

She shakes her head at herself.

Seleana Zdunich:  I should not have even done that.

She jabs her finger into her chest.

Seleana Zdunich:  Jag var domaren. Det var mitt jobb att döma.

Looking away, Seleana exhales heavily.

Seleana Zdunich:  Alexandra and I have never teamed before. We are no Angels.

She takes a deep breath and blows it out again.

Seleana Zdunich:  Christina and I have had a few matches as the Hollywood Angels. Christina and Alex had several matches as a team called Blackout. My sister had a team called the Fallen Angels with her wife and our cousin, Maja.

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich:  We are no Angels.

Seleana nods to herself and smiles.

Seleana Zdunich:  I am asked by many, how can I remain married to both Christina and Alex and i say, because I get to see Christiba and Alex…

She nods to her camera.

Seleana Zdunich:  You see Crystal and Diamond.

Shaking her head, Seleana glares into the camera. 

Seleana Zdunich:  They are not the same.

she cocks her head to the right, still glaring.

Seleana Zdunich:  I am not married to Crystal and Diamond.

She looks away, thinking about how many times she's already explained this knowing full well this will go in one ear and out the other on most people.

Seleana Zdunich:  But if you face them in the ring, you need to be ready for bad things.

She nods firmly.

Seleana Zdunich:  They will do anything and everything they deem necessary to win. They will do things I would not.

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich:  But they are not me.

She glares into the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich:  So we are no Angels.

She nods firmly.

Seleana Zdunich:  But we will see you on Sunday. We will bring everything we have.

She raises her right fist to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich:  You had better do the same.

Seleana Zdunich sighs heavily, looking down at her phone. Rewatching the moment with Cassie Wolfe and Mercedes Vargas had not helped anything. The moment on the following Climax Control had not helped things at all.

In fact, it had probably made them much, much worse.

Now they would both be a part of the Queen For A Day match along with Kat Jones, Alexandra Calaway, Julianna DiMaria and Seleana's wife…

Crystal.

The fact that Crystal had been hanging out a lot with the other person involved in the Cassie moment, Mercedes Vargas, calling the woman her best friend just seemed to make it even worse, at least to Seleana. She bows her head sadly again just in time for her other wife, Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell, to walk into the room and siut next to her.

ADC: Sel?

Seleana nods, looking up.

SZ: Ja?

ADC: What's wrong?

Seleana sits back, kicking herself for allowing her worry to show so much. She starts to answer, stops herself and then considers her words. Diamond just shakes her head at seeing the hesitation.

ADC: Seriously, what's wrong, Sel?

She nods, indicating the back of the room where the kids have been hanging a lot lately.

ADC: Rori and E have noticed too, Babe, what's wrong?

Seleana shakes her head sadly, visibly ashamed.

SZ: I try not to let bleed on them.

She inhales sharply, trying to convince herself it's ok to tell Alex. 

SZ: A few weeks ago, we were in Sweden, ja?

Diamond nods.

SZ: I was a special referee. I start the show and get crowd revved up. The match was between Cassie Wolfe and Mercedes Vargas. Cassie I have never had a problem with. Mercedes I have never not had a problem with. She is one of many that has never liked me, never respected me. During the match, Mercedes kept trying to bait me, to get me to do something stupid.

She shakes her head in both shame and despair.

SZ: She finally find right button. She press, i fire at her. I miss. Hit Cassie.

Diamond nods, understanding completely.

ADC: Like with me and Christina in WRR? 

Seleana nods, on the verge of tears.

SZ: Cassie did not deserve that at all. There are many in the company that would have deserved. Kat Jones, Julianna DiMaria, Mercedes, Kayla Richards…

She pauses to allow herself a nod of acknowledgement.

SZ: There is an argument that Christina has deserved before as well.

Seleana shakes her head.

SZ: Might be one that she deserves it now for spending so much time with Mercedes lately.

Diamond frowns.

ADC: Mercedes who never liked or respected you? That Mercedes?

Seleana nods and Diamond just shakes her in disbelief.

ADC: Christina really doesn't bother to read the room does she?

Seleana shrugs.

SZ: So now we fight again with Kat Jones, Alexandra Calaway, Julianna DiMaria and Cassie Wolfe in there with us.

She looks back down to the floor.

SZ: Kat, Julianna have never liked me. Alexandra is a tough, em, cookie? You remember her from NFW, ja?

Diamond nods as if the answer is she remembers this woman all too well.

ADC: Yeah.

SZ: Cassie is not happy with me at all now and Christina is…

She trails off as if she was about to say a bad word.

SZ: Again.

Diamond shakes her head and then embraces her wife.

ADC: Is this gonna start the #FreeSeleana stuff again?

Seleana shrugs.

SZ: I do not know.

She shakes her head.

SZ: I do not want to be "free." I want my wife to start acting like my wife.

She turns to better face Diamond.

SZ: Is too much to ask?

Diamond kisses her lovingly on the mouth.

ADC: No, it's not.

Seleana nods gratefully and Diamond kisses her again.

ADC: I love you, Sel.

SZ: I love you too.

Seleana Zdunich looks at her phone and scrolls a few things. As she goes along the list of things she tends to look at, her adopted children, Aurora and Elijah, walk into th room and sit down, both looking slightly worried.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy?

Seleana looks up, smiling brightly, happy to see them.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja?

Aurora sighs, sounding trepidatious while Elijah looks visibly apprehensive as well.

Aurora Zdunich: Are you really fighting Mommy Christina in your next match?

Seleana nods slowly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, we are both booked into it. There are six of us in the match. She and i are two along with Kat Jones, Alexandra Calaway, Juliana DiMaria and Cassie Wolfe.

Aurora's eyes go wide.

Aurora Zdunich: So it's you and Mommy against four people who don't like you much?

Seleana nods sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, Cassie is justified but the others are just…

She stops herself before saying the forbidden word out loud. She takes a deep breath and looks her children in the eyes.

Seleana Zdunich: Kat, Alexandra and Juliana tend to not be nice a lot.

Aurora frowns.

Aurora Zdunich: Why?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: They have always looked down upon me and Christina.

Aurora and Elijah both just blink at her in confusion.

Aurora: But why would they do that?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: They have never seen Christina as a colleague, always as less than them.

She pauses, nodding to herself more than anything else.

Seleana Zdunich: If they see Christina as less than, they see me as even beneath that because i admit wrestling was not my first love and passion professionally.

She nods again, clearly holding back her emotions.

Seleana Zdunich: I admit I got into wrestling because Christina ask me to follow her in LAW and as soon as I admit that, any respect I had accumulated vanish.

Aurora cocks her head, confused.

Aurora Zdunich: They look down on you because you admitted you listened to your wife?

Seleana starts to nod and then stops herself.

Seleana Zdunich: Not really. It was more that I did not love it as much as others. I had not put in as much work as others because they started young while I was at Orana Park in Christchurch. While they were building a career, I was raising Sarabi.

She motions with her hands.

Seleana Zdunich: To many, the two do not mix.

Aurora nods. Elijah just stares and then leans over to Aurora. He whispers something to her and Seleana smiles at their bond. Aurora nods to her brother and then looks up at Seleana.

Aurora Zdunich: So, what happens if Mercedes Vargas butts in?

Seleana sighs.

Seleana Zdunich: She already has.

She pauses as the kids just stare at her.

Seleana Zdunich: Christina sees her as her best friend. Mercedes has never liked me and she is who causes problems all around her.

She nods to herself.

SF: Her attitude is similar to Juliana and Kat. Alexandra's is not as poor an attitude as the other two. Christina's depends on her mood. Cassie's will depend on how bad she still clings to what happened with me. If she is hung up on that, it will be bad as. If she is not, she might just win it and become queen for a day.

Aurora frowns.

Aurora Zdunich: Why does Mommy's depend?

Seleana sighs.

Seleana Zdunich: Because her mood might change depending on what Mercedes says or what Kat or Alexandra or Julianna say. Or even Cassie.

She exhales slightly, just enough to make it sound like she's all but snorting in derision without actually doing so.

Seleana Zdunich: I could as well if she has her "gameface" on.

Nodding in  acknowledgement, Selena holds out her hands to her children.

Seleana Zdunich: Not intentionally, of course, but I cannot tell when the crowd inside her head might take flight. They have many times before and taken people by surprise every time. They are quite unpredictable, those crows.

Aurora nods while Elijah clutches at his sister more closely, almost as if he's hiding from something scary now.

Aurora Zdunich: What will you do if they take flight again?

Seleana sighs sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: I hope they do not but if that should happen?

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I will do my best to make sure they do not fly at you.

Seleana moves in and hugs the children.

Seleana Zdunich: I love you and I take it as my primary job to protect you.

Aurora Zdunich: I love you too, Mommy!

Elijah hugs his mother back harder.

Elijah Zdunich: i love you, Mama!

Sitting in the room after coming back from a short trip out  to see what Amsterdam has, Seleana Zdunich goes over when he has to go for any appearances or to the arena. As she does this, her adopted son, Elijah, comes into the room and sits down next to her, his adopted sister, Aurora. As usual, Elijah says very little but Seleana notices the look on his face and turns to face him.

Seleana Zdunich: Elijah? What is wrong, Älskling?

Elijah looks down in shame, Aurora sighs sadly.

Aurora Zdunich: He heard what that Cassie woman said on the last show. It scared him.

Seleana nods knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: Are you afraid they will take you away or that you ill be hit?

Elijh looks up at her, tears streaming down his face.

Elijah Zdunich: Why did you hit her?

Seleana looks at him in shocked silence. She looks down, the same way that he just did.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag…

She trails off, searching fir the words to explain things to her children.

Seleana Zdunich: I…

She continues searching for the right words to say and they refuse to find their way to the front of her mind. Aurora sits there looking on, almost seemingly to root her mother on while Elijah just sits where he is, looking afraid and almost horrified at having even asked the question. Seleana swallows hard and looks up.

Seleana Zdunich: The first time I hit Cassie, I did not mean to hit her. I was trying to hit Mercedes Vargas. This was an error as well even though I know some would say she deserved it, I should not have done that. I was wrong to do it.

She looks down again and nods to herself again before looking back up.

Seleana Zdunich: I know my job involves such things but when serving as the referee you are expected to refrain from that activity. I lost control and not only did I violate what a referee is supposed to do, I hit the wrong person who had done nothing to deserve it. I failed to do the job of referee and then I made it worse when I tried to explain what happened.

She exhales heavily again, a deep sadness exuding from every fiber of her being.

Seleana Zdunich: I know Cassie was upset. I know she was angry and I know I had done her wrong. I try not to let it…

She shakes her head, the shame washing over her in earnest.

Seleana Zdunich: I lost control again when she talk about you.

She bites her lip, trying to stop herself from just losing it completely

Seleana Zdunich: It was wrong  of me and now I have made it worse because I hurt her.

She lets out a breath and takes a deep one, allowing herself a few minutes to keep her composure. As she goes through everything, Seleana draws another sharp breath and nods to herself, another thought stepping into the conversation in her head.

Seleana Zdunich: It remind me of when Christina was the referee between Alexandra and I…

Elijah and Aurora both look on in shock, their eyes going wide and p;racticlly bugging out of their heads. Seeing this, Seleana nods. 

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I hit Christina trying to hit Alexandra.

She shakes her head again at the memory.

Seleana Zdunich: We were not together at the time. .

Knowing this sounds bad regardless, the Swedish woman takes a deep breath and looks into her children’s eyes.

Seleana Zdunich: Christina and I were married but we were not both with Alexandra yet. I have hit what I was aiming for before but that time, I did not. It was like this time with Cassie the first time.

Bth children stare at their mother in utter astonishment. Seleana nods to them again.

Seleana Zdunich: Alexandra was “the other woman” with Christina. They had not admitted this yet. The match was based on rumors that had been said by others. It was just supposed to be regular competition but I lost control and tried to hit Alexandra.

Her eyes moisten again and Selean tries to shake the tears away.

Seleana Zdunich: We have conversation and work out after.

She sniffles, her children nodding slightly.

Seleana Zdunich: I love Christina. I love Alexandra. I do not ever want to think of either of them like that again. I do not want to hurt either of them ever again.

She looks back to the children.

Seleana Zdunich: I love you both. I just want protect you. I never want enanger you. I…

She shakes her head and starts sobbing uncontrollably.

Seleana Zdunich: I fail you…   

Aurora grabs onto her mother, embracing her tightly, Elijah following suit immediately. Seleana hugs them both tightly.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar vår familj!

Aurora nods into her mother’s chest.

Aurora Zdunich: We love you too, Mommy!

Elijah hugs her tightly, crying as well.

Elijah Zdunich: I’m sorry!

Seleana shakes her head, wiping away the tears even as she tries to maintain the embrace oif her children.

Seleana Zdunich: No, you do nothing wrong, Elijah. You ask questions when something bother you. It is alright. I love you. You deserve better than what I give.

Aurora holds both of them as they cry anew

Seleana Zdunich: I never send you away. You are home with us.

Elijah clutches on even more fiercely.

Elijah Zdunich: I love you, Mom.   

Aurora smiles.

Aurora Zdunich: We love you, E.

The three sit there holding onto each other, letting the tears flow as they will knowing they’re needed.

The camera finds Seleana standing by herself near the water outside the hotel. Wearing an ensemble of an SCW t-shirt, blue jeans and Nikes, she nods as her long blonde hair casecades over her shoulders.

Seleana Zdunich: It has been an interesting few weeks, ja?

She nods slightly, looking out across the water.

Seleana Zdunich: Two weeks ago, we were in Stockholm and I was excited as for it. My home coun try, my family was to be there and while, I was not booked to wrestle on the show, I was entrusted with a surprise for it.

She almost laughs ironically at herself.

Seleana Zdunich: That went well, ja?

She looks back to the camera

Seleana Zdunich: I was appointed as special guest referee for Mercedes Vargas and Cassie Wolfe.

She exhales exasperatedly, quite visibly upset with herself.

Seleana Zdunich: This should have been an easy assignment. Cassie's matches have nothing from her that make them extra ordinary for the official. Mercedes is usually focused on winning even if she is a special word, it is a different kind of thing than…

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: It was an easy and simple assignment…

She looks back up to the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich: And I fuck up, ja?

She nods absently to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I let Mercedes get to me and when she say magic words, I try to punch her out for it.

Looking up to the sky, Seleana looks like she almost wants to slap herself. 

Seleana Zdunich: I should not have let that happen, but I did and that meant i punch out Cassie and not Mercedes because I fuck that up twice in one shot.

She closes her eyes, allowing thre shame to wash over her as she stands there with the camera capturing everything.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag sket i det blå skåpet.

She opens her eyes and looks into the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich: Then last week, we go to Copenhagen, Denmark. I start to explain myself.

She shakes her head in disapproval and disappointment with herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I should know it would go bad and stop, ja?

Her hand balls into a fist and she pounds it against her thigh in frustration.

Seleana Zdunich: Cassie comes out and I let her get to me as well.

She shakes her head again.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag sket i det blå skåpet igen.

She looks away from the camera, and exhales heavily.

Seleana Zdunich: I let it go too far and punch Cassie again.

she looks down and then back into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: Now there is no making that right, ja?

She nods, her eyes flashing knowingly, sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: Who know what will happen now?

She shakes her head at herself.

Seleana Zdunich: So I am scheduled for the show in the Ziggo Dome against Candy and normally I would be excited because of the kind of person Candy is.

She nods sadly, almost like she's afraid of what might be coming. 

Seleana Zdunich: Candy is nice, I do not want to hurt her like I do Cassie.

She nods and turns around, clearly still upset with herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not want to hurt anyone but, I have shown lately that I am capable of horrible things.

Taking a deep breath, she looks back into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: Candy, we will fight and I can only hope it goes like it should. We tear the house down and show the world how we do with no more added.

She nods.

Seleana Zdunich: I will see you there, ja?

Seleana Zdunich had been trying to make her children, Aurora and Elijah, feel more secure since the destruction of the family home in the Hollywood Hills. She knew Aurora would likely be alright because she’d seen the apartment in Las Vegas as her home for longer because it was where she’d been for her cancer treatments.

Elijah was a different story entirely and she knew it.

Elijah had never really had any stability until his adoption and now that had gone away as well. Seleana knew this was an important time with Elijah. As she packs for her coming flight, she nods to him.

Seleana Zdunich: This trip will be exciting, ja?

Elijah barely shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: We will enjoy Iceland, I am certain.

Elijah looks up with shock in his eyes.

Elijah Zdunich: We will?

Seleana nods happily.

Seleana Zdunich: You and Aurora are coming as well. Since we started homeschooling you for right now, there is no reason you should not come on this tour. We will be going many places with backgrounds that match mine. We will probably even see my parents in Sweden.

Elijah’s eyes go wide with excitement.

Elijah Zdunich: We’re gonna see Grandma and Grandpa?

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, they are excited to see you and Aurora.

Elijah almost starts shaking where he stands.

Elijah Zdunich: Does she know?

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: You can tell her if you like, ja?

Elijah scampers away excitedly.

Elijah Zdunich: Rori!  Rori!

Seleana smiles as Elijah disappears looking for his sister. The two kids come back into the room a few seconds later.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy, is this true?

Seleana looks at her daughter.

Seleana Zdunich: Is what true?

Aurora points at Elijah.

Aurora Zdunich: E says we’re going on this trip with you and we’re gonna see Grandma and Grandpa?

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, it is the truth.

Aurora light up and starts jumping excitedly with Elijah.

Aurora Zdunich: We’re going with Mommy! We’re going with Mommy! We’re going with Mommy!

Elijah Zdunich: We’re going with Mommy! We’re going with Mommy! We’re going with Mommy!

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja and we will enjoy this.

Seleana Zdunich: Reykjavík, Iceland

She nods happily.

Seleana Zdunich: Laugardalshöll Arena.

She nods again.

Seleana Zdunich: Bella Madison and I will meet in the ring with Fenris as the special referee.

She smiles just at the thought of this visual.

Seleana Zdunich: So we start the Viking Tour with the two vikings both in the ring.

Shrugging slightly, Seleana

Seleana Zdunich: Granted, Fenris will get a bigger reaction than either Bella or I will in this location.

She nods in acknowledgment.

Seleana Zdunich: You deserve it, ja?

She smiles and nods again.

Seleana Zdunich: Bella and I have met before. She is a great champion and I will enjoy meeting her in the ring again.


She nods off screen.

Seleana Zdunich: I am bringing my children on this tour and they will be there to see us show the world how this should be. I look forward to competing with you, Bella. I look forward to how this will likely go. 

Two voices come from just off-camera.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy’s gonna be great because she is and that’s just how it’s gonna be!

Elijah Zdunich: Is it always  good shoes?

Aurora Zdunich: Always.

Elijah Zdunich: Go, Mommy, go!

Seleana can’t help but smile.

Seleana Zdunich: I am so going to enjoy this trip.

She nods to the kids off-camera.

Seleana Zdunich: It will be glorious.

Seleana Zdunich had calls to make. She knew things with her ten-year-old son,  Elijah, would anger several. Her sisters would both be disturbed by the news of what had happened to him. One sister-in-law, Linnéa, would worry thi would knock a lot of family members in recovery off the wagon again. Another, Adrianna would probably think about things in her house and worry about how they would go while the final one, Olive, would be the one to worry about given her usual violent tendencies and MC connections. Her daughter-in-law, Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis, had many of the same tendencies and connections.   

SZ: Kattunge, jag måste berätta för dig vad vi kom fram till om Elijah.

Katra nods to the phone, even as she’s unable to hide the worry in her tone of voice.

KZ: Ja…

Seleana proceeds to tell Katra everything and Katra stands there in shock, her mouth falling open as her horror starts to take over.

KZ: Ta hand om honom, Sarabi. Jag älskar dig.
 
The call ends and Katra stands there for a second before she bursts into tears. Olive runs over to her, immediately trying to comfort the weeping Swede as their daughters, Emileigh, Iris, Violet and family friend Angelia Lee watch on wondering what could have said to cause this reaction. Third wife, Adrianna, motions to the daughters to follow her into the kitchen, sensing this is not a conversation everyone else needs to hear. 

Olive: Vad är det som är fel, Nala?

Katra exhales heavily as she tries to pull herself together.

KZ: They... find... history... Elijah... three... offices.... abuse ... him... it start... here.

Olive: Girls, leave the room.

Emileigh, Iris, Violet and Angelia finally do as they’ve been told. Olive turns to Katra and nod grimly, an entirely different expression coming over the diminutive woman’s face as if she just became someone else completely.

Olive: Tell me what Sel told you, and I'll get to the bottom of it.

KZ: Hans moster sålde honom.

Olive considers putting a hand through a wall then reconsiders

Olive: I will call Topino in the morning, find out all I can about this situation, and everyone involved will pay for what they've done. At least he is safe now. That poor child.

Standing outside the door of the apartment building, Seleana looks at her daughter-in-law, Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis, and nods.

Sz: Do I make this call or do you, Chickie?

Halo shrugs.

Halo: could be either os us really, but it’s probably better if I do.

Seleana nods and hands her the phone. Halo dial the number and waits.

Halo: Aunt Olive…

Hlo pauses, nodding to herself apologetically as if Olive Zdunich could see her.

Halo: Can Krigare speak right now?

She pauses again, ashamed she just said that aloud.

Halo: Tanya and Vanya have us working in the little guy’s shit. They’re not pleased that one of the offices of Douchebag, Inc is as close as it is.

Olive: Krigare here, you have my attention.

Halo: I’m assuming Mama Sel told Aunt Nala all about it and she told you and now Topino’s looking into shit?

Olive: Seeing that woman cry told me enough. I called Topino right away and wanted as much dirt on this place I can find. I'm also hunting the aunt down.

Halo nods.

Halo: The place I can’t help you with much yet but the aunt, I can tell you all about. Her name’s Vera White. The birth mother was her little sister. There was a third sister who wanted him because she was barren, but the poor woman died in a car crash on the way to pick him up as a one year-old. Vera didn’t want him because she had the same drug history as her baby sister and thought he was just a reminder and didn’t want that. So she sold him and promptly used the money to move away from here. She lives in Atlantic city and supposedly has multiple habits to feed.

Olive: I see. And hang on, I just got a text from Topino. The place is a warehouse outside Keasbey, just off the 440 into Long Island. Apparently NJSP and NYSP both dropped the ball due to whose jurisdiction it'd be. We're going to spend a welcoming party out there and see what we can find.

Halo:Gotta love that kind of wang waving don't ya?

Olive: I have my issues with State. A couple of them roughed up a couple of my girls not long ago. Funnily enough, nobody's taking responsibility for it but I didn't expect much. Once I know who did it, I'll arrange a meeting here where they have no power.

Halo: Sucks to be them. I don't wanna know what Tanya and Vany are gonna do to these people here but I know it ain'tt gonna be pretty. Them Russians ain't usually known for bein' genteel like.

Olive: If they need bail money, let me know. As for this place, they won't be getting Krigare. I mean, I can sic Dvorak and Sully on them but that still doesn't feel like it's enough. They might need someone more... unstable.

Halo: I mean if they wanna meet Mrs Mayhem, more power to them...shit's gonna go bad for them.

Olive: I have been known to have Ash question my sanity on occasion, I take that as a badge of honor.

Halo: I'm workin' on findin' me a pic of the good aunt. I wanna let Little Man know his whole family wasn;t a bunch of turd goblins.

Olive: I think that'd be sweet, but he's still young. I think him seeing the family he has now working to protect and love him is what he needs most right now. Once we get shit settled here, the brood and I are going to come down and visit. I can pull the girls out of school, this is a little more important. Olive: Man I'm going to have to plan for, what, seven, eight of us now? Motherhood is a bitch, let me tell you.

Halo laughs.

Halo: I wouldn't know, I didn't marry the twin who was blessed like that already.

Olive: It's coming, Haylie Jo. The motherhood bug will bite you too.

Halo: I hope if it does, I'm better at it than my parents were. I wanna teach my kids to do more than snort drugs.

Olive: I am completely unworried about you. You've lived your shit and you've come out of it in a better light. Plus, you know, you have members of the family who didn't grow up angels either who've smartened up too. As much as I'm not a fan of Christina, she's come a long way and I hope she continues that path. And from what I hear, B-Brat is doing well as well so you're in good hands and so would your children.

Halo: I'd have my hands full just with Ames and Goldie!

She laughs again

Olive: Like that's a bad thing!

Halo: Naw, just cute.

The call ends and Halo hands the phone back to her mother-in-law.

Halo: She’s working on shit.

Pausing, a small smirk comes to her face.

Halo: Aunt Olive thinks I’d be a good mother.


Seleana smiles brightly.

SZ: I agree, it’s the truth, Chickie.

Halo shrugs.

Halo: I don’t know bout all that….

Seleana socks her head inquisitively.

SZ: Why not?

Halo shakes her head uneasily.

Halo: I just..

As Halo trails off, Seleana nods to her.

SZ: HayJo, are… you.. Afraid… of kids?

Halo looks away in shame.

Halo: I… I don’t…

She looks and ashamedly wipes away a tear.

Halo: I don’t wanna be my mother.

Seleana just looks at her while Halo tries not to lose it completely.

Halo: All she ever did was teach Ames and me how to get high.

She shakes her head.

Halo: I don’t ever wanna pass that on to anyone.

Seleana: Älskling, that is not who you are.

Seleana steps in closer and hugs Halo.

Seleana: You are so much more. Olive is absolutely right.  You will be a great mother because of what you fear. You know what not to do and you will be wonderful at it.

Halo just nodds and hugs Seleana back, sobbing uncontrollably.

Halo: Thank you, Mama Sel.
   
SZ: Jag älskar dig, HayJo.

Seleana Zdunich sits in her second home, watching her children, thirteen-year-oldAurora and ten-year-old Elijah, playing a video game. Having not been allowed such things before his adoption, Elijah had very timidly asked permission to play, visibly waiting to be yelled at for even having the temerity to ask. He was moved to tears when Aurora held out the controller to him and asked if he knew how or if he needed help. Aurora had hugged him and reassured him that it was ok and he was really allowed to play too.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: How long have they been going now?

Seleana smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: An hour’s time. I think Elijah expects there to be rigidity in how long he’s allowed tp ply but Rori’s having fun teaching him and watching him.

Diamond nods.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Did he ask his usual way?

Seleana Zdunich: Worse, he expected to be reprimanded for asking permission,

Diamonds shakes her head in disgusted disbelief.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: What did these fucking people do to him?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know but it was not good. He is like a beaten puppy that still expects to get kicked every time he speaks.

Diamond shakes her head, her disgust growing into outrage.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: If we ever run into these people, I’m gonna wanna smack them until my hand hurts and then keep smacking them for making my hand hurt.

Seleana nods her agreement.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I am the same. Christina is looking to find them.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Did she tell her friends here in Vegas?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know but it would not shock me if the answer is yes. I already had the discussion with her about trying to spoil him.

Diamond almost snickers. The idea of Christina not spending money on him was absurd in more ways than one and they both knew it.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: How did she take that?

Seleana Zdunich: I try to explain that Elijah will noit take well to cvertain kinds of gifts at first. He will think he has done something wrong and is in trouble. He might even think we are angry with him and will send him away.

She nods to the video game.

Seleana Zdunich: Like he was earlier with the game and Rori.

Diamond exhales heavily.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: The poor kid.

Seleana nods again.

Seleana Zdunich: He is terrified he will not be good enough and we will send him away. He is terrified we will send him back to the other place.

Diamond looks away, glaring abject hatred.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Fucking hell!

Just as the two react to this thought, they are joined by their wife, Cjristina “Crystal Hilton” Zdunich.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: I found the office.

She pauses and then nods.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: Well, technically I found three offices. The one in Los Angeles that we’ve already seen. There’s also one in Florida that’s the same type of deal and then there’s one in New Jersey.

She holds out her tablet with the information. Diamond scans it and then hands it to Seleans.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: That one Jersey looks sketchy as fuck.

Seleana scans the information and nods in agreement.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, it does. You think it mill?

Christina shrugs.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: I don’t know but that’s where it starts.

Seleana nods and looks back to the information.

Seleana Zdunich: Were you able to confirm what we know about his parents?

Christina nods sadly.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: It’s worse than we thought. They’re both dead. Father was a gangbanger who tried a little too hard to get the big boys to notice him. They did… with a bullet to the dome.

Seleana and Diamond allow their heds to droop sadly at the acknowledgement of the father’s fate.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: Mother was underage and addicted and finally succeeded in smoking her life away when he was a baby.

Seleana shakes her head sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: Never had a chance, ja?

Diamond shakes her head.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: And someone took advantage?

Christina nods.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: An aunt sold him.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: Fuck!

Seleana Zdunich: Poor kid, ja?

Christina nods as does Diamond.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell: We’ll fix that.

Christina "Crystal" Zdunich: Fuckin’ right we will!

Seleana smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: It’s what we do, ja?

All three nod in agreement as they turn back to the kids playing happily together, /aurora seemingly enjoying herself even more than when she was playing herself while Elijah experiences this for the first time.

Seleana Zdunich: It is beautiful.

She nods, ready to go on a second’s notice.

Seleana Zdunich: A supercard for SCW and this time we’ll be in Sin City itself, Las Vegas at the MGM Grand which would make this a substantial show.

She nods in acknowledgement while smoking playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: I would also call it substantial because I was added despite not initially being on it. They added me with Harper Mason, the Slaytanic avenger which…

She smirks.

Seleana Zdunich: Means Harper has the same taste in music as my sister, Katra.

She plays air guitar like Bill & Ted.

Seleana Zdunich: Very metal.

Pulling her arms back she turns to more proper;ly face the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: You would also be a woman that could be seen as a “poor kid” that would desperately need a victory here and I would represent an opportunity for you.

She pauses and nods to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I am a former champion twice here.

She pauses again to point to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: That means if you want to get into that area of a career, you need to beat me.

Seleana nods and spreads her arms wide and inviting.

Seleana Zdunich: So this is your chance, Harper. Hit that opening note and crank it.If you win, you get to say you’ve defeated a former champion and just might push yourself into position to cash in yourself.

She nods and waves at the camera to bring it on.

The night before a trip is always a big thing regardless of how long the trip is. In this case, Seleana Zdunich was getting ready to go back overseas for the next SCW Supercard in London, England. As she gets ready, her thirteen-year-old daughter, Aurora, walks into the room.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy, what's wrong?

Seleana shakes her head sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: Nothing, Älskling. I’m just disappointed that Song had to change out of the match next weekend.

Aurora frowns.

Aurora Zdunich: Why did she have to do that?

Seleana sighs.

Seleana Zdunich: It is not my place to say. Personal reasons precluded her from being there.

Aurora nods, visibly disappointed.

Aurora Zdunich: So who do you get instead?

Seleana shakes her head to correct her daughter.

Seleana Zdunich: Not instead, the same three others I was to get anyway, Casie Wolfe, Luna Pasilno and Alexandra Calaway.

Aurora’s eyes light up at the list of talents.

Aurora Zdunich: Oh, nice group!

Seleana almost laughs at her daughter’s sudden change in enthusiasm for the match.

Seleana Zdunich: It is a tables match for a title shot.

Frowning again, Aurora lets her confusion and  curiosity get the better of her again.

Aurora Zdunich: Why is it a tables match?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: Because it is a hardcore show and the audience always loves tables.

Aurora just states at her mother and Seleana smirks playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know, Älskling. I do not ask such things when booking happens. I know it happen and my job is to make best of no matter what match is.

Aurora nods as her newly adopted ten-year-old brother, Elijah, arrives in the doorway. He sees what Seleana is doing and his head droops. Aurora sees him and walks over to him.

Aurora Zdunich: It’s alright, E, she’s not leaving forever. She might even take us with her sometimes.

He looks up into his sister’s eyes, all but begging her for the right answer here. Aurora smiles.

Aurora Zdunich: Sometimes, she does and sometimes we get to watch with Mommy Alex, Freja and Lucy. Sometimes, ok a lot of the time, Hayjo even comes over with Brit and we watch together with them too!

Elijah looks back in astonishment.

Elijah Zdunich: We…. we do? 

Aurora nods.

Aurora Zdunich: Brayden might even come over too just to watch Mommy wrestle.

Elijah looks at his sister cautiously optimistic.

Elijah Zdunich: We get to do this?

Aurora nods and then Seleana smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: Freja and Lucy are already coming. Hayjo is as well. Brayden will try. It will be a big family party, ja?

Seleana walks over to her children and takes them both into her arms.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar er mina älsklingar!

Aurora hugs her mother back, making sure her brother is included in the embrace.

Aurora Zdunich: I love you too, Mommy! I love you E!

Elijah buries himself in his new family’s arms.

Elijah Zdunich: I love you!

Seleana Zdunich: It is not often that a show comes to Sweden so they felt they needed to come especially since I was bringing you and Elijah with me. 

Aurora nods happily.

Aurora Zdunich: Can I call him my brother yet?

She pauses as she notices the young boy in the doorway to the room. Seleana looks and smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: It is alright, Elijah. You can come in.

The boy does as he’s bidden. Seleana sits on the bed and asks both children to join her. Aurora bounds up immediately while Elijah waits a second before climbing up as well.

Seleana Zdunich: To answer your question, yes, you can call him your brother. The Agency expedited things. The paper work has already started and I will be notified when it is completed.

Seleana puts her arms out to him.

Seleana Zdunich: You have a family now.

Elijah looks at her and blinks several times. Aurora smiles wide and Seleana nods. Elijah jumps into her arms. Aurora adds to the new family embrace.

Elijah: Thank you!

Seleana hugs him to her and kisses his head.

Seleana Zdunich: I love you, Älskling.

Aurora smiles brightly and squeals excitedly. .

Aurora Zdunich: I get to be a big sister!!!!

Elijah looks at Aurora and smiles excitedly just as she did a second earlier.

Elijah: I’ve never had a sister before!

Aurora giggles.

Aurora Zdunich: Well now, you have two and a brother!

Seleana nods to him to reinforce the truth of the matter.

Seleana Zdunich: Aurora, Brittany and Brayden.

It had been over a month since Seleana Zdunich had encountered the small boy at the zoo that had openly spoken about his home life. Seleana had spoken to her wives about it and had it looked into. Now she was following up with the agency via zoom call.

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, Emily, how’s it?

Agent Emily Hodge smiles at Seleana

Agent Emily Hodge: Hey, Seleana. I’m pulling every string I can think of to try and help that poor baby. Everyone I’ve talked to would be happy with the move. It’s just a matter of the legal red tape. The fact that there are many adults that would be involved in this child’s life and how well you have done with Aurora, are check marks in your favor.

Seleana nods as if she knows bad news is coming.

Seleana Zdunich: What is against us?

The agent sighs.

Agent Emily Hodge: I won’t lie, your wife’s substance use history is troubling. It raises several questions with her since it’s happened more than once and with more than one substance. I think it should be in her favor that she has overcome that and that you and Alexandra do not have that history at all is a major plus.

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: What more must we do?

Agent Hodge shrugs.

Agent Emily Hodge: Christina will probably have to pass drug tests.

She nods pointedly.

Agent Emily Hodge: Plural.

Seleana nods quietly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, we knew that would be coming. Alexandra and I have volunteered to prove we are clean as well.

Agent Hodge nods brightly.

Agent Emily Hodge: That’s good, it’ll score you points. I think what else will score you points is both your financial situation and the fact that the birth parents and in fact, the birth family is not involved at all. We’ve had investigators looking for them all over. So far, everything we’ve found has either said they were dead or not in  position to be eligible to stand in your way. This honestly looks like it’s a formality aside from the drug tests.

Seleana nods slowly.

Seleana Zdunich: Christina has been diligent in her care program. My sister is her sponsor. She and her wife work with many people to help them.

The agent nods in happy agreement.

Agent Emily Hodge: They have children as well, right?

Seleana nods affirmatively.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, they have four.

Seleana can’t help but smile brightly at the thought of her small nieces.

Seleana Zdunich: They are so cute. They will turn one in October.

The Agent nods in kind.

Agent Emily Hodge: Aw!  They must be adorable!

Seleana nods again.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, this is the truth. It is beautiful watching them put everything aside for them. Zenna only wrestles in one company. Linnea works only as a counselor. Alissa and Kelly even did the same. They have cousins who came in to make sure they were not overwhelmed with the four.

Agent Hodge nods, visibly impressed.

Agent Emily Hodge: The band?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: They found they can work around the schedule, especially since Katra has her own in-home studio in New jersey. She has three adopted children now as well, all teenagers. They are wonderful girls as well. They were all at risk and went through a program to help them. I’m so proud of them. Emileigh plays beautiful piano. Violet sings and Iris plays back-up to her to help her confidence.

Agent Hodge nods again.

ARH: That family track record should help you as well. If it was just up to me, you’d have him right now.

Seleana smiles warmly.

Seleana Zdunich: Thank you, Emily. I hope to help in any way I can even on this tour.

The agent can’t help but smile.

Agent Emily Hodge: You’re a good one, Seleana,  I will help you in any way I can.

Seleana Zdunich: Tack, Emily.

The call ends and Seleana stares at her phone with a photo of Aurora and Elijah together.

Seleana Zdunich: Snart, små. Vi ska bli en familj.

Hotel
Bangkok, Thailand
4:07 PM Local Time





The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing in the main hallway of her hotel in Bangkok, Thailand, dressed in jeans, a black American Murder Log t-shirt with the first album cover with the shot of a group of hungry alligators on it. 

Seleana Zdunich: Kayla Richards…

She looks off to the right.

Seleana Zdunich: The Dreamkiller…

She snickers to herself as if she knows that’s not just a cool nickname.

Seleana Zdunich: Holder of Two Titles in SCW…

She nods slowly before looking back to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: So many nicknames it is like a rerun of Star Trek TNG…

She shrugs playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: Or just keeping track of how many last names my wife has used, ja? 

Looking straight on, Seleana moves so that she’s staring the lens dead on.

Seleana Zdunich: But you are the current SCW Bombshell World Champion and have been for a good long while. In five months’ time, you have successfully eradicated the idea that anyone else can be a top champion here unless you say so, ja?

She waves her hand through the shot.

Seleana Zdunich: Add that to the eleven months you have been Mixed Tag Team Champion and it means you have owned things in SCW. There are no hens to be made out of feathers with you and your championships and your reigns. They are real and they stack up to allow you to say you are number one and number two is far beneath you that there really is no number two, just everyone else.

She nods slowly, pointing to herself she does so. .

Seleana Zdunich: And I am not too proud to admit I am of that number.

She cocks her head as if to reinforce a point.

Seleana Zdunich: The last time anyone could truly say they were better than you was a year ago when you lost the Women’s Internet Championship on your second reign and if we’re honest, it should really be seen as one long reign because you were only not champion for three weeks. For all to see, it would appear you lost and simply moved on because you decided the Internet Championship had outlived its usefulness to you.

Shaking her head sadly, Seleana looks down slightly.

Seleana Zdunich: You had established your name in SCW as it had been in every other company you had been with previously and now it was time to add to it. Now it was time to show everyone the Dreamkiller. Show everyone that their dreams of being number one, their dreams of being the top woman in SCW, their dream of being a champion… are dead…

She looks back up into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: Not only are they dead, but you killed them, ja?

She nods, conceding the point.

Seleana Zdunich: So you have lived up to the hype. You have lived up to who you said you were. I remember you said it years ago in Hybrid Wrestling and you would laugh because of how we both ended up there. You were World Champion and I got fired for telling the boss I would not do something.

She smirks knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: You were the Dreamkiller and I was…

Seleana shrugs as if the next point is obvious and common knowledge.

Seleana Zdunich: Ingenting…

She grins before translating the word.

Seleana Zdunich: Nothing. 

She nods as if she knows something everyone watching does not, or at least does not want to admit.

Seleana Zdunich: But here is the upside to my being nothing Kayla.

She grins wickedly.

Seleana Zdunich: You cannot be the Dreammkiller for me.

She nods, pointing to herself again.

Seleana Zdunich: I have been a champion in SCW. I have been the Bombshell World Champion. You cannot kill any of my dreams because they have already happened.

She shrugs, still pointing to herself in the chest.

Seleana Zdunich: I am nothing so I have nothing for you to kill, Kayla. If you win, you will have killed no dreams. You will still be a champion but you will not add me as a notch on your Dreamkiller belt because you can’t kill me. You never could and you never will.

He nods again, reinforcing the point yet again.

Seleana Zdunich: I have been champion, Kayla and I have told you before that I was coming for you. My dream is still and has always been to get my hands on you. This Sunday in Bangkok, my dream comes true and you cannot kill that.

She smiles sweetly, genuinely.

Seleana Zdunich: That is all I want for this trip to Bangkok and I get it no matter what I do and no matter what you do. We walk to that ring and my dream comes true.

She pumps her fist in celebration.

Seleana Zdunich: Sweet as!

The smile only grows in intensity as she cocks her head to the left.

Seleana Zdunich: So what will you do, Dreammkiller, when you cannot be the Dreamkiller with me?

Her hands come together as if begging for an actual answer to the question.

Seleana Zdunich: What will you do when what you love most cannot happen with me?

She smirks, knowing full well there really is no answer.

Seleana Zdunich: Välkommen till djungeln!

Zdunich Cabin
Onboard ship
8:04 AM  PDT





Inside the cabin she’s sharing with her wives, Christina “Crystal Hilton” Zdunich and Alexandra “Diamond” Caldwell along with their thirteen year-old daughter, Aurora Zdunich, Seleana Zdunich smiles as she watches Aurora getting ready to enjoy her day on ship.   

Seleana Zdunich: You have everything that is needed, ja?

Aurora nods.

Aurora Zdunich: I do, I’m ready for a fun day!

Seleana smiles at her daughter.

Seleana Zdunich: You will stay in certain areas?

Aurora nods obediently.

Aurora Zdunich: I know where to stay. Juliet and I really enjoyed the arcade. We’re probably going back there.

She pauses before grinning.

Aurora Zdunich: Probably more than one. 

Seleana snickers knowing this is the absolute truth.

Seleana Zdunich: They have good games?

Aurora nods excitedly.

Aurora Zdunich: They have some old ones, some not and then a couple of like riding ones. Juliet tried to get me to do the hammer game a couple of times but it usually has a line. 

Seleana’s smile widens even further.

Seleana Zdunich: You enjoy it, ja?

Auror can’t nod fast or excitedly enough.

Aurora Zdunich: I saw Nurse Loti at the dance class so we might try that too. It looks fun.

Seleana smirks playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: It is not just that Dance game you used to play a lot?

Aurora shakes her head.

Aurora Zdunich: No but they have that game too. It still has a line though you can tell how old the people are by who wants to play it still.

Seleana smirks amusedly.

Seleana Zdunich: You do not?

Aurora starts to answer but stops herself as her mother just gives

Aurora Zdunich: I didn’t say that, just that the first ones in the line are usually old people that remember when it first came out.

Her amusement growing exponentially by the second, Seleana tries hard not to laugh.

Seleana Zdunich: So what do you like to play?

Aurora shrugs as if the answer is the most obvious answer to ever answer.

Aurora Zdunich: Whatever has the shortest line, especially if I get to play it with Juliet.

Again, Seleana has to try hard not to laugh.

Seleana Zdunich: She is your best friend, ja?

Aurora nods happily.

Aurora Zdunich: Bestest ever!

Just then, a knock on the door gets their attention. Aurora runs over and opens it find the aforementioned Juliet standing there.

Aurora Zdunich: Juliet’s here, Mommy!

Seleana nods approvingly.

Seleana Zdunich: Okej, you have everything you might need, ja?

Aurora nods.

Aurora Zdunich: Yes…

Knowing her daughter is actually annoyed and exasperated but suppressing it, Seleana smiles and nods to her.

Seleana Zdunich: Have fun. 

Aurora and Juliet both squeal excitedly.

Aurora Zdunich: Tack, Mamma!

The two thirteen-year-olds run off happily, anticipation on both faces as they go. Just then, Diamond comes back from the gym while Christina comes out of the bathroom.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: The girls look happy.

Seleana snickers.

Seleana Zdunich: They’re going to the arcade again.

Crystal grins.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: I mean, of course they are. Aurora is going to dominate that like we do everything else! She’s our daughter, she can’t help it. It just happens!

Diamond and Seleana both just look at each other knowingly.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: They’re so cute together. God help us later when the boys start coming by trying to get with them and hit it.

Crystal smirks as only she can.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: Again, of course, she IS our daughter. Look at us and look at her already. They will be stunning!

Selena nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Remind me to look up mace and tasers, ja? 

Diamond laughs.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: We’re gonna teach them how to use those right?

Seleana nods affirmatively without hesitation.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, show them how to keep safe.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: You know price is no barrier.

Seleana nods again.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, we will look into things before we buy.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Damn right.

Crystal nods.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: So, what plans today?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I have none. I would look around ship first.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Me either.

Crystal smirks lasciviously.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: Well, I know some…

Diamond smiles.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Yeah?

Crystal nods and they look at Seleana.

Seleana Zdunich: Let us enjoy ourselves, ja?

The three step together and kiss, knowing full well they’re about to do just that.

Poolside
Onboard ship

4:04 PM PDT





The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich sitting on a deckchair in a pink bikini, holding a drink with a little umbrella in it.

Seleana Zdunich: It is that time, ja?

She nods and sets her drink down on a nearby table.

Seleana Zdunich: We come to this ship to enjoy ourselves and cruise away the time for Summer XXXTreme XII! I have been coming for six years’ time and it does not feel like it has been that long at all.

She nods, looking around the pool area of the ship.

Seleana Zdunich: However, here we are.

She snickers to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: At least I do not have to worry about falling into the pool during Ultimate X this time. I have done that before and it sounds fun, it is fun until you are the one paddling your way across the pool to climb out because somebody else will be winning it this year.

She shrugs, smiling but with a hand up to stop a response from coming at her.

Seleana Zdunich: Do not get me wrong, it is better than landing on the hard mat in the ring but losing still sucks even if it means you just did a cannonball into a pool instead of getting dropped on your head in the ring.

She nods to the pool as a child executes a perfect cannonball to make a big splash.

Seleana Zdunich: So this year, I do not need to worry about getting my gear dipped into chlorine-infested waters..

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: No, I simply have to worry about a bog standard wrestling match that my opponent does not care for and while I am disappointed, I cannot say I am that surprised.

Seleana glares into the camera as if she kne this would happen.

Seleana Zdunich: Eiley is a woman who has made her way to championship standing before so right thre, I am held in her contempt as I always am with others of her ilk but she won a championship i have not yet managed to attain.

She shrugs slightly.

Seleana Zdunich: While it is true that I have not managed that because I have not yet had a mixed tag team here to compete for it, that would not stop anyone from trying to use it as a cudgel on me.

Shaking her head, Seleana allows her annoyance to shine through.

Seleana Zdunich: They would simply say it is because I am neither good enough, nor talented enough to warrant anyone taking that chance with me and further they would say that no one would have me as a partner anyway. 

Again, she shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: Perhaps this is true, perhaps it is not but this match does not hinge on that so it does not matter if that is true. All that matters is that when the bell rings, I am in the ring with somebody that won championship status previously and thus is a threat to take whatever I have from me.

She glares straight into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: Eiley, as I said, I am disappointed that you did not use this opportunity to let me hav it with both barrels. Perhaps you will give me one, perhaps you will give me none. I do not know and I do not care. When we get in that ring, I am bringing everything I have with me and you had better do the same or I will show you what happens when a cat is handed something and does not want to just play with it.

A slight smirk forms.

Seleana Zdunich: Du kommer att ha gjort ett misstag som kräver åtgärd.

She nods pointedly.

Seleana Zdunich: Välkommen till djunglen!

Griffith Park
Los Angeles, CA
8:01 AM  PDT





Sitting on the grass in Griffith Park was always a different experience in the middle of the concrete jungle that was Los Angeles. Seleana looks around the area, smiling as she does, enjoying the feel of the grass on her legs as she lets them shine on through via the cut-off shorts she was rocking today with her black AML t-shirt and sandals. As she watches the other people milling about, Seleana can’t help but enjoy the whole experience. After about twenty minutes, a young woman with long dark hair dressed in a red crop top, black shorts and a pair of Nikes sits down next to her. The woman, an old friend of Seleana’s named Patricia Rousseau nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, Ru, how’s it?

The dark haired woman nods to her friend.

Patricia Rousseau: Sel…

Seleana glances around the area.

Seleana Zdunich: I love this place. It is so beautiful, ja?

Ru nods her agreement.

Patricia Rousseau: Yeah, I used to get high near here. Thi was like that place you went to when you wanted to day dream about better things, or just forget whatever was really on your mind that day.

Seleana takes hold of her hand encouragingly.

Seleana Zdunich: You found your better things.

Ru manages a small smile.

Patricia Rousseau: Yeah, I did. Halo’s new place is gonna give me the chance to help others get there.

Seleana Zdunich: You hear what she will call it, ja?

Ru nods.

Patricia Rousseau: The Church?  Yeah, I heard.

She sighs heavily.

Patricia Rousseau: I admit, at first the name was off-putting to me. I’ve been to the old one, even called it home for a minute.

Pausing, she shrugs almost apologetically as if calling the place home is both the wrong way to put it and yet somehow disrespectful to its memory to not call it that.

Patricia Rousseau: Well, as much as you could call it home anyway.

Seleana smiles encouragingly.

Seleana Zdunich: You will do brilliantly there.

Ru shrugs, visibly unsure of herself on that score.

Patricia Rousseau: I can try, can’t promise anything.

She pulls her phone out and flips a page.

Patricia Rousseau: I found what you were looking for.

Seleana’s eyes light up happily.

Seleana Zdunich: You did? What did you find?

Ru looks at her phone and starts reading the information off.

Patricia Rousseau: His name is Elijah Alexander Williams. He’s ten years old. He was born here in Los Angeles. His father bailed out of his life before he was born and, in fact, died attempting to rob a liquor store when the boy was six months old. His mother bailed on him when he was a year old and overdosed two weeks later. Kid’s been in the system pretty much since then. He’s never been tested for anything but something has to be up that he’s never been adopted or fostered much. He lives at a group home that calling it a shithole would be demeaning to fecal matter. If it were me, I'd be trying to find excuses not to come home too.   

Seleana shakes her head in dismay and disbelief.

Seleana Zdunich: I wish I was not getting on a boat soon now. Hopefully my phone will still work on there so I can try to keep things moving.

Ru almost laughs.

Patricia Rousseau: Knowing things like cruise ships, they’ll pull out all the stops to make sure everything works perfectly and this comes off like Vegas trying to make an impression to keep this business opportunity going.

Seleana Zdunich: It would be nice. I do not want to leave him in that situation any longer than is necessary and I know HayJo will be dealing with things with her facility.

Ru nods.

Patricia Rousseau: The kid’s not going anywhere. Hell, they might jump for joy the second they hear you wanna take him off their hands.

Seleana smiles though clearly she does not completely share Ru’s thoughts there.

Seleana Zdunich: I hope so. I tell Christina and Alexandra about him and they agree. I did not tell Aurora or Brittany or Brayden. I did not want to get Aurora's hopes up. I do not know how Brittany or Brayden will take it.

She pauses, momentarily afraid of a bad reaction.

Seleana Zdunich: I tell Chavy if he comes in to make sure they let him stay. She and Razorback say they will make sure he is always safe there. It is a nice change for him, ja?

Ru nods sadly.

Patricia Rousseau: Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if that place is awash in shit that’d keep Halo in business for a while. I don’t know that any of the people there are actually on anything, but some of them just kinda…

She pauses, gritting her teeth.

Patricia Rousseau: Stink of it.

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: He sounds like he is living in vicious cycle…

Ru looks away and then nods.

Patricia Rousseau: That’s one way to put it. Another is that if something doesn’t change, he’s not gonna have a good ending. Either he’s gonna end up on shit or he’s gonna get beat to shit by somebody who is…

Seleana’s head droops.

Seleana Zdunich: This is one of the times I wish I was more like Olive, she help so many…

Ru shrugs.

Patricia Rousseau: Hey, your way is working just fine.

Seleana nods to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I just hope I am not too late…

Ru puts her hand on Seleana’s back.

Patricia Rousseau: As long as he’s breathing, it’s not too late.

Seleana nods, a glimmer of light in her voice.

Seleana Zdunich: I hope this is so.

Office of Seleana Zdunich
Zdunich Zoological Gardens
Los Angeles, CA
8:14 AM  PDT





Sitting at her desk on a Friday morning was nothing new for the owner and director of Zdunich Zoological Gardens. It happened quite often, especially the Friday before an SCW show where she was booked to have a match as she was this week. As she looks at paperwork before her, Seleana Zdunich looks up to see her best friend and head veterinarian, Dr. Michelle “Chavy” Chavez, walk into the room, causing Seleana to smile brightly.   

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, Chavy, how’s it?

Dr. Chavez can’t help but only half smile, a bit of melancholy shining through.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Situation normal…

Seleana nods knowingly as Dr. Chavez continues with her explanation.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Marlene was fussy this morning. She never likes it when I leave and I think she knows Teddy has to take her for a check-up today and was putting in her protest.

Seleana almost snickers at the thought of the nine-month-old Marlene putting her little foot down on going to the doctor’s office.

Seleana Zdunich: Aw, pobrecita…

Dr. Chavez nods, smiling in kind.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: King Louie’s having his check today. He’s been grumpy too, as he usually is. Thank God he’s used to Dr. Florian or this could go south in a hurry.

Seleana’s smile brightens even more.

Seleana Zdunich: We were lucky to get him on our team so I am glad even Louie has taken to him, ja?

Dr. Chavez nods her agreement.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Yeah, we were. He’s been great.

As she trails off, Seleana frowns in confusion and concern.

Seleana Zdunich: Chavy, what is it?

Dr. Chavez nods to the door.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Elijah’s sitting in front of the snake case again on the little bench he likes there. There’s no group scheduled for today and he doesn’t talk to many people here. He just sits there watching Nagini sit there in her favorite place.

Seleana’s concern only grows.

Seleana Zdunich: Who has tried?

Sighing heavily, Dr. Chavez just shrugs slightly.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Razorback gave it a shot and so did Joe.

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Nothing?

Dr. Chavez shakes her head.

Dr. Michelle "Chavy" Chavez: Nope.

Seleana sighs, slides back from her desk and stands.

Seleana Zdunich: I will talk with him.

Dr. Chavez nods happily and the two women exit the office heaving in opposite directions. Seleana walks over to where the small boy is sitting and sits next to him.

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, Elijah, how’s it?

The young boy just nods to her.

Elijah: Hi.

Seleana smiles sweetly for him.

Seleana Zdunich: You like it here, ja?

Elijah nods.

Elijah: It’s nice and quiet here.

Not expecting this answer, Seleana’s mouth almost falls agape.

Seleana Zdunich: It is not elsewhere?

Elijah shakes his head.

Elijah: No.

Seleana cocks her head slightly, interrogatively.

Seleana Zdunich: It is not at home?

Elijah shakes his head.

Elijah: No.

For Selean, this begs a seemingly obvious question.

Seleana Zdunich: Your mom…

Elijah cuts her off abruptly.

Elijah: I don’t have a mom.

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: My mistake, ja? Your dad…

Again, the small boy cuts her off.

Elijah: I don’t have a dad.   

Seleana frowns.

Seleana Zdunich: You do not?

He shakes his head.

Seleana Zdunich: Where do you live?

Elijah shrugs as if the answer should be obvious.

Elijah: At the home.

Seleana nods, taking it all in.

Seleana Zdunich: You do not like this?

He shakes his head emphatically.

Elijah: No!

Taken aback, Seleana just stares back in shock.

Seleana Zdunich: Why not?

Elijah bows his head in sadness and shame.

Elijah: They hate me.

Seleana can’t believe her ears.

Seleana Zdunich: And school…

Elijah shakes his head, tears starting to form in his eyes.

Elijah: They’re mean. They hit.

Seleana nods understandingly.

Seleana Zdunich: So you feel safe here, ja?

Elijah nods and Seleana holds out a hand to him.

Seleana Zdunich: Can I sit with you then?

For the first time, Elijah smiles as he accepts the hand. Seleana smiles back at him and starts answering his questions about the snakes and eventually, the other animals. The whole time they sit there, Seleana has one thought floating through her head…

“I must look into this story. It cannot be true, ja?”

The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich sitting on a wooden folding chair in the garage near an open space away from the vehicles.

Seleana Zdunich: Andrea Hernandez has returned, ja?

She nods disgustedly.

Seleana Zdunich: It was only a few years’ time ago that she was a fanny to everyone. She was obsessed with my wife and used me to anger her. She was a complete fitta to me and everyone else and did not care who she did anything to as long it benefitted her in the way she wished it to….

Seleana stares into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: So why are we supposed to just accept you now?

She shrugs, anger radiating off of her.

Seleana Zdunich: Because you ask?

Seleana scoffs at the notion.

Seleana Zdunich: If that does not work for anyone else, why should it work for you?

She nods, pointing into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: If you want redemption, you need to start with all those you wronged, ja?

Seleana stands up, visibly not happy to even have to address this.

Seleana Zdunich: If you have apologized to people, even insincerely, I have not received one yet.

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know if you have started making the rounds yet or not. Even if you have, I will be last because I am the one you will see as least important and so nothing will have changed at all…

She points into the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich: You have to prove there has been a change made and not just once or because you say there has been. You must show it and you must show it again. You must show it repeatedly until none can question the change anymore outside of the ons who will never not question simply because they are contrarian fannies themselves.

She shakes her head sadly.

Seleana Zdunich: If you do not, all you prove is the suggestion of a change as a lie meant for you to put one over on everyone one more time. You were the same as always, doing something because there was something in it for you just as you were before.

She nods pointedly.

Seleana Zdunich: I will see you in the ring where you have the chance to prove this change and I sincerely hope there is a change to be found in you. I am tired of shuddering with disgust at the mere mention of your name. I do not like holding onto dislike but until you give a reason, I am forced to, ja?

She moves in closer to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: I hope we see I no longer need to and can put that baggage down. I am tired of carrying it for you. 

She turns and walks off as the camera fades out.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Got a few?

Seleana looks up and smiles brightly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja…

Diamond grins.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: How many?

Seleana frowns and then looks back at the list of them again.

Seleana Zdunich: Kattunge, Olive, Adri, Shenzi, Li, Chavy, Lis, Jenni, Emi, Violet, Iris, Stacy, Kelly, Storm, Varghona, Priest, Little Scarlett, Amber, JSP, EIP, EDP, Raevyn, Monster Scarlett, Bethy, Ash, Nik, Jezzy…

Diamond nods, interrupting her.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: So, a few…

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja. 

Diamond smiles, walks over and kisses her wife.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Happy birthday, Baby. I love you.

Seleana smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: I love you, too.

She stands up and heads to the shower while Diamond retrieves what she came into the room for and takes her leave. Fifteen minutes later, Seleana comes downstairs where her daughter, thirteen-year-old Aurora, runs over to her and clasps onto the Swedish woman as if she’s never going to let go.

Aurora Zdunich: I love you, Mommy, happy birthday!

Seleana hugs her back, kissing the top of her head.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar dig älskling!

Diamond and Christina both come walking over and join in the family hug.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: I love you, Babe! Happy birthday!

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Happy birthday again. I love you!

Seleana stands there loving the feeling of being in the familial embrace and taking in all  the love.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar er alla så mycket!

She pauses as the feelings wash over her.

Seleana Zdunich: I love you all!

The four of them stand there for a second before the silence is finally broken by Aurora.

Aurora Zdunich: So what are we doing for your birthday?

Seleana opens her eyes and smiles, seeing them here together making her feel so happy she really has no answer.

Seleana Zdunich: I…

Aurora giggles.

Aurora Zdunich: HayJo and Brit’ll be here soon, should we ask them?

Seleana’s smile somehow brightens even more than it already was.

Seleana Zdunich: Christina has no plans?

Diamond can’t help but smirk as Christina starts to hem and haw.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: I... I… was going to but we all decided it would be better to have you decide.

Seleana looks at Christina, touched and impressed.

Seleana Zdunich: Really?

Christina nods and Seleana stands there for a second in shock.

Seleana Zdunich: I am… surprised.

Just then, the aforementioned Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis and her wife, Brittany Williams, walk into the room.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Mama Chrys has her moments like that.

Halo leans in and hugs Seleana.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Love you, Mama Sel, happy birthday!

Seleana smiles as Brittany does the same.

Brittany Williams: Happy birthday, Mama!

Seleana beams with loving pride.

Seleana Zdunich: Tack… I love you both!

Halo grins.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Come, y’all, let's go make Mama Sel breakfast and then she can figure out what she wants to do for her day. 

Brittany and Aurora nod and follow Halo into the kitchen while Seleana, Diamond and Christina sit down on the couch.

Seleana Zdunich: Everybody being here is already the best present.

Diamond and Christina both smile back and hug her again.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: We love you, Baby. We had to find you something special.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: You know us.

Seleana nods happily.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I do.

She sits back with her wives, excited for what the day will bring.

The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich sitting on a wooden folding chair in the garage near an open space away from the vehicles.

Seleana Zdunich: It is my birthday and I am getting ready to go out for dinner with my family before we have to go to our respective work commitments.

She nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Halo has to go to the South somewhere. Diamond is required in Chicago. Christina is required in Chicago and then Colorado Springs…

She pauses, looking down at her feet.

Seleana Zdunich: It is funny, ja? Colorado Springs means I will face somebody I have faced several times before.

She nods to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: Someone that I have gone to war against for the biggest prize in SCW multiple times. Someone I had earned the respect of…

She sighs heavily.

Seleana Zdunich: Then this match was announced and…

Pausing again, seleana

Seleana Zdunich: Alicia Lukas is a woman who has earned her place in the conversation for greatest female competitor in SCW history. When she first arrived here, she was unstoppable. She was the lioness who could rightfully call herself the Queen of the Kill. No one stood her equal for a very long time…

She looks up into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: And I defeated her for the SCW Bombshells World Championship.

Looking back down for a moment, Seleana nods to herself in acknowledgement before looking back into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: When I lost it back to her, I came back again…

She nod more forcefully again.

Seleana Zdunich: And again.

She nods and points to herself in the chest.

Seleana Zdunich: She beat me and the whole world hoped that would be the end of me and yet, it was not my one and only moment of note, ja?

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: I kept coming back until I got another opportunity and I cash that in as well.

Glaring harshly into the camera, Seleana cocks her head to the left ever so slightly,

Seleana Zdunich: Now, some still think I should be done and I am nothing and easily dismissed.

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I will just have to show you all again…

She nods and looks back to the floor.

Seleana Zdunich: But Alicia Lukas lost the championship and then took some time off.

Seleana nods to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: When this match was announced she called me a shell of my former self…

She shrugs and looks up into the camera once again.

Seleana Zdunich: I am still here, taking my lumps and moving forward.

She nods and then points accusingly.

Seleana Zdunich: You, on the other hand, took some lumps and instead of using it for your tea, took your ball and went home because you were the shell of your former self.

Seleana stares into the camera disappointment, sadness and a hint of disgust in her eyes.

Seleana Zdunich: You were the unstoppable force that no one could hang with. You were the top of the food chain, the Lioness that ruled whatever place you chose to call home. When I won our match, you came back in the next one and took it back.

She cocks her head again.

Seleana Zdunich: Then you lose and…

She shakes her head.   

Seleana Zdunich: You were shook as over it. You take ball and go home and now you call ME the shell of former self?

She grits her teeth in a seething anger.

Seleana Zdunich: I have taken lumps that would make you quit, retire and be ashamed to show your face but I am still here. Today is my birthday and I am now at an age where others will tell me I should go home. I had a better run that I had any right to expat, ja?

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: I am not going anywhere. I will celebrate my birthday weekend with a match with you and I will keep coming back after no matter what. I will come back again… and again… and again…

She stands up.

Seleana Zdunich: I will keep coming back until I make you all sick of me and then I will come back again!

She nods angrily into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: And I ask you, Alicia, if I am a shell, what does that make you if you lose to me?

She shrugs almost nonchalantly.

Seleana Zdunich: Win, great, you beat nothing and you won nothing. You prove nothing. Lose…

Seleana almost laughs.

Seleana Zdunich: Then we compare our shells together, ja?

Seleana Zdunich waits patiently, yet excitedly for the plane to land. After having been in Honolulu to do press and promotional duties for the coming SCW Supercard for four days, she was finally going to see some of her family. Walking up to the terminal, Seleana nods to herself tentatively. As people start streaming through the gate as they come off the plane, Seleana spots who she’s looking for, her wife, Alexandra “Diamond” Caldwell and daughter, Aurora Zdunich. Seleana smiles brightly as the two see her and come hurrying over to her. She wraps her arms around the thirteen-year-old and hugs her tightly.

Aurora Zdunich: Mommy!

Seleana kisses the top of her head.

Seleana Zdunich: Jag älskar dig älskling

Diamond walks over and hugs Seleana as well, the two sharing a passionate kiss.

Seleana Zdunich: Mmm, jag älskar dig så mycket! 

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: I love you too.

Seleana motions at them to follow her to baggage claim.

Seleana Zdunich: How was flight?

Diamond shrugs.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Nice, who decided to spring for the good shit?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: I always do when Aurora flies. Christinal always says only the best but she actually needs it with her health questions, ja?

Diamond smiles.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Yeah, I suppose that’s true.

At the mention of their third wife’s name, Aurora pipes up.

Aurora Zdunich: When is Mommy getting here?

Diamond frowns.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: She has a match right?

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, in Chicago the night before the one here. We will have to ask her if she will join us and then fly back and forth or just wait until show day.

Aurora frowns sadly.

Aurora Zdunich: I hope she doesn’t wait.

Seleana nods at the frowning teenager.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, that is me as well.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Me too. Together time as a family in Hawaii?  Come on!

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: We will give her a ring later today and ask her of her plans.

Aurora grins.

Aurora Zdunich: She better not just stay!

Seleana and Diamond both grin at each other.

Seleana Zdunich: Go see if you can find the bags, ja?

Aurora nods and hurries off as Seleana and Diamond watch on after her.

Seleana Zdunich: She will stay on Christina until Christina cannot stand it, ja?

Diamond chuckles.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Rori’s learned well from her, hasn’t she?

Seleana chuckles along with her.

Seleana Zdunich: Rori did not take much teaching. She has always been strong-willed like that.

Diamond nods in agreement.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: I love her so much.

Seleana nods in agreement.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, that is me as well. I cannot imagine my life without her.

She turns to face Diamond.

Seleana Zdunich: Tack for coming and bringing her.

Diamond nods.

Alexandra "Diamond" Caldwell-Zdunich: Thank you for making sure we were invited.

The two women kiss and then look as their grinning daughter comes over with the bags.

Aurora Zdunich: Got ‘em!

Seleana nods and motions towards the door.

Seleana Zdunich: Let us go to the hotel, ja?

Diamond and Aurora both nod and follow her out, ready to enjoy this impromptu family vacation.

The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing on the beach in a pair of cutoff short, sandals and a white t-shirt that reads

Seleana Zdunich: So, here we are, just two days’ time until we go to battle in Pearl Harbor, ja?

She nods, visibly not as annoyed as last time the camera found her on the beach.

Seleana Zdunich: Two days until Bobbie Dahl, Diamond Steele, Harper Mason, Eiley, Victoria Lyons and I try to climb the ladder to become Queen For A Day…

She nods to herself as if a larger thought was crashing into her mind.

Seleana Zdunich: Two days…

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: Is Diamond Steele even trying anymore?

She looks down at her feet and shakes her head sadly before looking back up into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: Bobbie was just a champion. Harper, Eiley and Victoria all see a great opportunity here and Diamond…

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: I knew you would be the great question mark, Kate. You always seem more bothered by irrelevant skit that does not matter.

She shakes her head sadly again.

Seleana Zdunich: I was almost looking forward to this because of you. I knew Harper, Eiley and Victoria would want to use this set themselves up with momentum.

She nods in acknowledgment.

Seleana Zdunich: Bobbie too…

She starts to go on almost sounding annoyed.

Seleana Zdunich: I was hoping…

Sighing, Seleana trails off letting that thought just hang there in the air.

Seleana Zdunich: So, the battle will have six bodies but only five who care.

She shakes her head disgustedly.

Seleana Zdunich: Shitty as…

She looks back up to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: So now we come to a battlefield, this time it’s on a battleship. Harper, Eiley, Victoria, Bobbie, Kate and I will all try to climb that ladder, grab the prize and become Queen for a Day and I would say some should hope I do not get it because they will not like it if I do but…

She shrugs, almost snickering as she does.

Seleana Zdunich: I do not know what I will do if it’s me aside from I will not give myself or anyone related to me a championship opportunity. Anything else…?

A giggle escapes her lips.

Seleana Zdunich: It might be on the table, it might not. It depends on if I want to mess with someone or if I just decide not to because they are not worth the bother to do so.

She smirks playfully.

Seleana Zdunich: I know some who would be insulted by that if it came to pass. There is no way they aren’t worth the energy…

She nods, now almost full on laughing.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja I know…

She looks away for a second before smirking playfully into the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich: There is no way those cannot be worth it…

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: We will see, ja?

The smile only intensifies.

Seleana Zdunich: That ladder is calling and we see who can climb it and who will die trying.

She nods happily.

Seleana Zdunich: See you all Sunday.

The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing on the beach barefoot and dressed in a pink bikini. She glares at the camera for the intrusion before nodding slightly as if she knew this would happen but thought she’d have more time to prepare.

Seleana Zdunich: Here we are, ja?

She nods grimly.

Seleana Zdunich: We will fight in paradise to see who gets to be Queen For A Day in SCW between me, Eiley, Victoria Lyons, Harper Mason, Bobbie Dahl and Diamond Steele. 

She pauses, the annoyance softening slightly.

Seleana Zdunich: It is billed as a ladder match between six SCW Bombshells as if we are all equal but…

She snickers, knowing how that will be received.

Seleana Zdunich: I know firsthand that this prize is used as a cudgel to beat others over the head if they are given something by the so-called Queen that others believe is undeserved or unearned. .

She nods again, knowing how this has gone in the past.

Seleana Zdunich: Or even if it just seems like they were given something even if it was just an opportunity.

She nods, pointing at herself in the chest.

Seleana Zdunich: I was afforded an opportunity by somebody who was the Queen and just because of who it was, it had never mattered that I capitalized on that opportunity or turned away others both in the process and after the fact. It is a cudgel that is used against me to this day.

Glaring into the camera, Seleana’s anger starts to bubble up. 

Seleana Zdunich: I say the same thing every time it is brought up, you no like, do something about. Stop the Queen from winning, we never have this problem. Stop me from capitalizing, we never have this problem. Stop me from defending so it doesn’t come off like a fluke, we never have this problem.

She shakes her head as she glares accusingly into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: But all of you involved at the time could not so here we sit, broken hearted. Paid my dime and only…

She nods knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: So we have Eiley and Victoria Lyons who will inevitably complain about being forced into this match with those of us who are beneath them as if they should simply be handed the crown rather than be forced to cimb over us and up the ladder to take their…

Making air quotes with her fingers, Seleana

Seleana Zdunich: “Rightful place” because it’s just that clear that they should be afforded things.

Annoyance enters her eyes.

Seleana Zdunich: There are so many entitled…

She shakes her head, stopping herself from what she was going to say.

Seleana Zdunich: No, they do not deserve that word… 

Now looking almost angry with herself for getting so close to letting that word fly out of her mouth, Seleana all but slaps herself.

Seleana Zdunich: Neither of them have done anything enough to be bestowed with such a word on them. It would mean they have power over others when they do not.

A look of revulsion comes across her face.

Seleana Zdunich: Such a waste of talent…

Again, she shakes her head, this time in disgust.

Seleana Zdunich: Harper Mason and Bobbie Dahl have been the opposite. They have simply been looking for an opportunity and now they find themselves with one.

She nods approvingly.

Seleana Zdunich: They can go out there and show everyone who they are on this kind of stage and make everyone take notice that they are both not to be trifled with or simply discarded because they are not the loudest or the squeakiest wheel. They did not require speaking something into existence just to make it so.

The harsh glare of her gaze returns.

Seleana Zdunich: They are who they are and now they get a chance to prove that to everyone and allow them all to take notice.

She shakes her head, looking away.

Seleana Zdunich: I wish I can say I am surprised but I am not.

Her gaze moves back to the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: It is the usual M.O. for many to dismiss because they cannot stand to admit someone else has any talent at all much less in the same stratosphere as them. Many of them almost sound if they are delusional…

She nods slowly.

Seleana Zdunich: Which we must wonder if we will hear delusional in this match, ja?

She nods grimly.

Seleana Zdunich: Not from Eiley or Victoria. Not from Harper or Bobbie.

Seleana shakes her head almost sadly. 

Seleana Zdunich:  It is sad.  We are friends.

She pauses, and nods in acknowledgement.

Seleana Zdunich: Sometimes.

She takes a deep breath, looking down at her feet.

Seleana Zdunich: Our daughters are best friends. They do everything together.

She nods to herself as she looks back up.

Seleana Zdunich: We are family.

Looking the camera dead in the eye, Seleana all but pleads.

Seleana Zdunich: That is why it hurts to ask, who are we actually getting at Into The Void?

She points at her hand as if there is a list to go down written on it.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the Jem and the Holograms knock-off who half the time never remembers to tap her earring and say, “Show’s over, Synergy?”

Seleabna scratches her head as if this is painful just to go down the list.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the girl who thinks she’s the punker chick that should actually be called the Misfit?

She cocks her head to the right.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the sweet English girl who can be a wonderful person to everyone and especially her daughter?

She moves her head so it's cocked to the left instead.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the woman who calls herself Diamond because she thinks she’s “God’s Gift” to everything?

She sighs heavily.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the woman who cannot decide if that is actually true?

She nods slowly.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting Kate?

Seleana sighs again.

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting Kath-Lyn?

She raises her right hand, palm up like she’s weighing one side of the argument..

Seleana Zdunich: Are we getting the woman who is our family friend?

Her right hand goes down and the left hand goes up in its place.

Seleana Zdunich: Or are we getting the woman who tried to destroy our family? 

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: We shall see…

She nods again, her focus coming on stronger. 

Seleana Zdunich: We shall see who takes the prize, who climbs the ladder and who will be Queen. There are six of us in this match and we are all capable of great things. We shall see who stalks the prize and takes it all!

Seleana Zdunich sits next to her wife, Christina Zdunich, on the train as her phone chimes at her. Seleana glances over at it and smiles at the photos just sent to her by their daughter-in-law, Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis despite the fact that it's midnight where she is in California.

Seleana Zdunich: HayJo sent us photos…

Chistina glances over and scans them quickly. She nods to four faces she doesn’t recognize.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: Who are they?

Seleana shrugs and sends the message asking. Almost immediately, the answer comes back. Seleana stares at it in disbelief.

Seleana Zdunich: För fan i helvete!

Christina frowns both in confusion and slight alarm.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: Sel?

Seleana nos.

Seleana Zdunich: She say… they are her sister…

Christina stares at her wife in disbelief.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: I thought she only had the one twin?

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja…

She sends back the question again. The answer comes back in the form of an e-mail a few minutes later.

Seleana Zdunich: Weird as…

Seleana opens the message and nods as she starts reading.

Seleana Zdunich: She say, “Have you ever heard the siong “Papa Was A Rolling Stone?” Well, our daddy didn’t die and leave us alone, he left us to talk to each other when we bumped into each other and found out the whole bunch of us existed. He used to go to other towns like Shelbyville, Normandy and Lynchburg because he knew of games there and apparently found somebody in each place he could buy drinks and whatever else they liked and get in their pants. So Daddy didn't have “three other kids and another wife”, he had three other baby mamas and four kids. The two with darker hair are from Shelbyville, called “Mockey” and “Tequila” Their mama named them after things to do with “To Kill A Mockingbird” Then there’s the third one, called “Minnie.” Daddy quit talking to her when he found out her mama was part latina despite passing for white. She’s from Normandy.  The last one’s called “C.R.A.V.E.” Those are her initials and she’s from Lynchburg which means the family really has a thing for Jack Daniel’s.”

As Seleana and Christina both stare at the phone, another chime signals them to another message coming in.

Seleana Zdunich: Skit också!

The new message opens.

Seleana Zdunich: She say they are the new people she was trying to get jobs at the zoo.

Nodding to herself, Seleana almost slaps herself, placing her hand over her eye.

Seleana Zdunich: That’s why she no tell me who they are. She did not want to be asking for that kind of favor…

Christina shrugs.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: They might have had habits of some sort too. Maybe she didn’t want to push it. What jobs did she ask for?

Seleana Zdunich: The kind that pay the least. She say if I find they qualified for other work, sweet as but she would only ask for low jobs.

Seleana sighs heavily.

Seleana Zdunich: I hope Alex is having a better time home with Aurora, ja?

Christina smiles.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: They seemed so excited!

Seleana nods knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: Alex get to be “Mommy” and Aurora gets to have her undivided attention. They looked happy when I talked to them before they went to bed, or at least, before Aurora did.

She pauses and smiles.

Seleana Zdunich: I am happy to be on this trip with you, Estrellita.

Christina smiles back and kisses her wife.

Christina "Crystal Hilton" Zdunich-Caldwell: I love you.

Seleana kisses her back.

Seleana Zdunich: Julianna DiMaria…

A look of disgust comes across Seleana’s face at the very thought of the woman that carries this name.

Seleana Zdunich: So now we get round two, ja?

She nods, knowing very well what the answer will be in response.

Seleana Zdunich: So how will you rather hyporcritically dismiss this match this time? 

Seleana nos a if it’s a foregone conclusion this will happen.

Seleana Zdunich: It is what you do best and most often, ja? Even as much as you detest when it is done to you?

Glaring into the camera mockingly, Seleana allow her incredulousness to show ever so slightly

Seleana Zdunich: All those things you have called me and others since your arrival, you got called by others and you did not like it, did you?

Seleana shakes her head as if she knew this would happen.

Seleana Zdunich: Still making hens out of feathers despite all you have achieved because it is still not enough, ja?

She nod pointedly, full to the brim with contempt.

Seleana Zdunich: And it never will be, because no matter who you choose to blame for it so you don’t have to admit it is your fault and who you are, nothing will ever be good enough for you. You came into SCW talking as if one little win meant you were in the conversation for greatest ever despite the fact that Roxi Johnson, Mercedes Vargas, my wife, Mikah, Alicia Lukas and others all still exist.

Seleana pauses to allow the momentary response to build that she knows is coming all too well.

Seleana Zdunich: I will not act as if that is an exhaustive list because I have not been here since the beginning of the company and do not possess the direct knowledge to name everyone but since you dismiss multiple people on that list, what difference does it make. You could not keep your mouth shut and simply accomplish your goal.

She shakes her head angrily.

Seleana Zdunich: No, you had to whine and complain and moan and bitch about everything including those you would use as the very bricks to build your own monument to yourself! “Message bitch,” “Stepping stone,” “Chapter in someone else’s stupid story,” “A last win before retirement,” “Nostalgia act…”

Seleana cocks her head knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: So you can call others that but when you are called that, it is a “How dare you?”

Glaring into the camera, Seleana

Seleana Zdunich: I am one of those very bricks you chose to step on when you did not even need to. You started saying my name, Mercedes’ name, other names and you were booked or programmed with none of us at the time. You could have gone your entire life without saying any of our names and who would have known the difference?

She nods, glaring disgustedly as she points to the ground beneath her feet.

Seleana Zdunich: You chose this battleground, Julianna.

Again, he nods and points into the camera accusingly.

Seleana Zdunich: You picked this fight and many others for no other reason than you thought we are all beneath you and just hear to service you and now all you can do is whine when we get the call to come take you up on the fight you asked for!

Her hand falls away out of the shot but her contempt does not.

Seleana Zdunich: För fan i helvete! Din jävla idiot!

The hatred in her eyes intensifies like a storm building up for making landfall.

Seleana Zdunich: I have waited for this and I will welcome you to the jungle you freely walked into. Whine all you want about how much it’s a waste of your time, it’s all your fault. You called my name repeatedly almost like a lost lover begging for more when you know you cannot handle it. The battleground awaits, let us not keep it waiting, ja?

Seleana Zdunich looks around the room and shakes her head at how empty the clubhouse seems to be. As she frowns in confusion, her daughter-in-law, Charter Vice President Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis appears and smiles at her mother-in-law. Seleana smiles and waves a hand to indicate all the space around them.

Seleana Zdunich:  Where is this lot? They are usually crawling, ja?

Halo nods in agreement if not a little amusement.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Doc is at work at her clinic gig. She took one of the prospects with her to provide a little security, pretty sure it was Lassindra. I think Tory went with them too. Rocket and DeeKay are downstairs looking at stuff for upcoming fight nights.

Halo allows herself a momentary snicker.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Knowing Rocket, she's probably trying to think of ways of talking Mei fighting or at least helping with the talent. Woman loves watching Mei work.

Another smile crosses Halo’s face as she thinks of how Rocket looks at Mei, amused at how touching it is and how visibly apparent the love between them is. 

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Tanya, Maria and Katya are with Stoyo at the tat studio, I think they were meeting somebody there but, no big deal. The Warbirds, Cuervo, Jane and Chi Chi have the other prospects down in the gym. Chi Chi likes running through training just to fuck with B-Brat and D-Dub because they both tend to annoy her.

She pauses, smirking playfully.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Mostly B-Brat, D-Dub is really just to make it look like Cheech isn’t singling anybody out. Lucy and Key have been catching up some because of residual heat left over from Coneja. 

Seleana nods understandingly. “Coneja” was her other daughter-in-law, Sofia Hilton, wife of Brayden Hilton, the twin brother of the woman married to Halo, Brittany “B-Brat” Williams. She had spent time as a prospect in the San Clemente charter right next to her own sister, Ravenna “Cuervo” Rojas, as well as B-Brat, and it had not ended well. Sofia had not taken well to the MC’s hierarchy and how she was not near the top and she did not take well to being given orders to follow feeling the menial tasks were beneath her. Sofia saw herself as different and above and thus had departed the MC to take spots elsewhere with what she saw as greater chances of advancement to being a shotcaller, something she knew was not likely to happen with the Shieldmaidens and definitely not in San Clemente.

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja, she was too close to T-Will’s vision of things, I think. That would not mesh well with the Maidens, ja.

Halo can’t nod her agreement fast enough. 

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: The drug empire was seemingly calling to her.

She pauses and looks down in shame.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if she was the one…

Trailing off, Halo looks away. Seleana

Seleana Zdunich:  If she was the one?

Halo nods almost absently.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: That was supplying Mama Chrys.

Halo looks back at her mother-in-law.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I didn’t ask B-Brat about it because I know she and Sofia don’t get along and…

She trails off, uncertain where her thought really was going. Seleana shrugs almost nonchalantly.

Seleana Zdunich:  She would not have believed. Brittany would never have believed her brother capable of such things even if presented with clear evidence.

Halo frowns.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Sofia…

Seleana nods slowly.

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja, but neither Sofia nor Christina are that good at hiding things for long periods of time. Brayden would have known early so either he would have been required to be in on it with his wife or he would have had to overlook such things intentionally. Brittany would never have believed him capable of either where their mother is concerned.

Halo almost laughs.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Even though he has done things to ehr own mother for money before herself?

Seleana nods sadly.

Seleana Zdunich:  Brittany always changes her mind in time. Brayden does as well. Sofia has no attachment to her that way. All she sees is a woman that enjoys money and a grandchild. Brittany would have jumped to conclusions no matter where it led her.

Halo stares at Seleana in shock.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: You say this like you already thought she did this…

Seleana shrugs as if the answer is obvious.

Seleana Zdunich:  Christina’s relapse coincided with Sofia and Brayden being brought into T-Will’s business world. It would make sense to try her hand at it with somebody she sees as often as she saw Christina at the time. The only surprise would be if she did not discuss it with others she thought could help her with that business. She was not upset at being asked to leave the Shieldmaidens the way someone usually is. I would hypothesize that she already knew she would leave because she believed she would get more in T-Will’s world than yours, especially given how unpopular she became.

Halo shrugs.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: This is true, personally, professionally in wrestling, in football, in the Maidens…

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja and now?

She shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich:  Who knows what she will do to achieve whatever it is she think she deserves.     

Halo nods slightly.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: This means it’s fuckin good she ain’t goin’ to Normandy with you, right?

Seleana nods, chuckling to herself.

Seleana Zdunich:  There are enough things to not look forward to encountering in Normandy without adding her to the list. I have to fight Krystal Wolfe again there…

Halo smirks.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Have fun stormin’ the beaches.

Seleana smirks playfully back at her daughter-in-law.

Seleana Zdunich:  Ja, sweet as.

Beaches
Normandy, France
3:24 PM  Local Time





The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing along the beach, staring out into the water. 

Seleana Zdunich:  We are ready, ja?

She looks over to the camera and smiles.

Seleana Zdunich:  We come to a place that should be considered holy ground. The beaches of Normandy have seen such things that we should all consider ourselves fortunate to be allowed to walk amongst the sands that remain.

She looks back out over the waters again and takes in the scene before her.

Seleana Zdunich:  Krystal Wolfe and I will engage in a struggle and I will…

She trails off still looking out over the water.

Seleana Zdunich:  I will wonder…

Shaking her head in disgust, Seleana sighs heavily.

Seleana Zdunich:  I will wonder why everyone else, including Krystal, seems to bent on playing the victim so much?

She looks back into the camera, still shaking her head at the thought.

Seleana Zdunich:  Why do they all whine no matter what they have accomplished? 

Looking back at the water, Seleana’s face becomes almost impassive.

Seleana Zdunich:  Krystal whined before she made a fitta of herself. She whined after and she whined after she tried to claim redemption for making  fitta of herself.

She looks down, allowing her gaze to drift to the sand beneath her feet.

Seleana Zdunich:  Whiny and entitled…

Her gaze drifts back up to the water.

Seleana Zdunich:  So many, including and especially Krystal  seem to think that just because they draw breath that everything should automatically be handed to them.

Seleana turns to glare into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich:  You make such hens out of feathers!

She turns to swing her hands to the right.

Seleana Zdunich:  I win this championship but not this championship.

She swings back the other way.

Seleana Zdunich:  I get this opportunity but not this opportunity.

Looking back into the camera, Seleana points to herself.

Seleana Zdunich:  I do not want to hear it anymore. All you all ever do is whine that you get no recognition or you are kept from what you deserve but almost none of you give anyone else any yourself. Well, if you are not willing to give to anyone else, why should anyone give any to you?

The point moves but the glare does not.

Seleana Zdunich:  Din jävla idiot!

She looks away, shaking her head in disgust again.

Seleana Zdunich:  I hate when hens are made of feathers! 

She looks back into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich:  We storm the beaches of Normandy and yet you show such blatant disrespect! If you continue this, you will not deserve to be allowed into the ring!

Looking away, Seleana starts to walk out of the shot.

Seleana Zdunich:  Skit också!

Zdunich Zoological Gardens
Los Angeles, California
9:01 AM  PDT





Inside the office, Seleana is getting ready to head out when her daughter-in-law, Haylie Jo “halo” Annis, comes walking into the room.

Seleana Zdunich: Heya, HayJo, how’s it?

Halo smiles at her mother-in-law.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Hey, Mama Sel, how’s it goin’?

Seleana nods at the few papers left on the desk.

Seleana Zdunich: I am almost ready to head to Flagstaff for Blaze of Glory.

Halo nods her head understandingly.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Yeah, I remember how big a deal that was when I worked for SCU.

She shakes her head sadly.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I miss that place. I never got to team with Jane and Cheech there. I dunno why, you’d think with all the GRIME stuff that having a three person team would have been a good idea but it just never happened. Gutter Ballet never got to see the light of day there.

Seleana almost laughs.

Seleana Zdunich: It is like the mWo with Zenna, Eavan and I, ja?

Halo nods her agreement.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: That never did really happen, did it?

Seleana shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: No.

Halo shrugs.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Guess that runs in the family.   

The two share a laugh.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja.

Halo shrugs.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: So, how do you see this match y’all gonna have, Mama Sel?

Seleana takes the moment in and sighs.

Seleana Zdunich: I have heard it called things that are not what you wish your match to be called.

Halo frowns.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: You ain’t serious.

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: We have been declared an afterthought at best and the pissbreak at worst.

Halo folds her arms in disgust.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Y’all ain’t no pissbreak, Mama Sel. Who the hell are you in there with then, Philo and Gunge?

Seleana smirks at the Fraggle Rock reference.

Seleana Zdunich: Ariana Angelos and Georgie Robertson.

Halo just stares at her mother-in-law as if she just sprouted a second and third head.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: But, thoe are both championship type competitors. Ain’t Ariana won a couple too?

Seleana nods matter-of-factly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, she has.

Halo nods in acknowledgement.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: And Georgie’s been in competition for them?

Again, Seleana nods matter-of-factly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, she has.

Halo nods and then points at Seleana.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: And I know you done won a couple yourself.

Seleana nods matter-of-factly one more time.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I have.

Halo looks away, shaking her head before looking back.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Then what in the unholy fuck is this afterthought bullshit?

Seleana shrugs.

Seleana Zdunich: Some of us are not well thought of lately and this match has no direct championship stakes.

Halo just stares back looking almost ready to explode.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Well who gives a rat’s free fuckin’ ass if the jack-me-off-and-show-it-to-everyone championship is on the line or not? Y’all have all been in the mix before, ain’t nobody should be blowin’ this off like it’s the chance to walk off and piss the beer out!

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, that is me as well but I cannot help if others see things differently. All I can do is go into the match and ork to change minds there.   

Halo nods in both agreement and understanding at her mother-in-law’s plight.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Give ‘em hell, Mama Sel.

Seleana smiles and embraces her daughter-in-law.

Seleana Zdunich: I will. I will not allow this thought to top me, especially when I know Aurora will be watching.   

Halo smiles with pride.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: That little girl ain’t lettin’ any of us give up, is she?

Seleana glows with the same pride.

Seleana Zdunich: No, she had faith in all of us.

Halo smiles gratefully. .

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: Bless her heart.

Seleana nods.

Seleana Zdunich: She loves us and we her. I love you, HayJo. 

Halo smiles and hugs her mother-in-law again.

Haylie Jo "Halo" Annis: I love you too, Mama Sel. Knock ‘em dead!

Seleana Zdunich: Ja, I will.

Random Building
Flagstaff, Arizona
3:24 PM  MST





The camera opens upon Seleana Zdunich standing outside a building with a giant Historic Route 66 sign outside of it built into the wall. Seleana looks around, nodding to herself at the surrounding area.

Seleana Zdunich: This is poetic for this match, ja?

Shrugging, she looks around her again.

Seleana Zdunich: Many people would look at Ariana, Georgie and I and say we are little more than afterthoughts that used to be something or should have been but got supplanted by better things.

A grin comes to her face as she looks at the sign behind her. 

Seleana Zdunich: This city is full of such things. It started with the railroad and then had Route 66 come in. They fight until the interstate highway system take over.

She nods and pats the sign.

Seleana Zdunich: And think of what they both used to be.

Turning to look into the camera again, Seleana

Seleana Zdunich: The railroad usd to dominate travel in this country. It ruled the country and was the way goods and people moved great distances for a long time. Nothing could compete with it and it was able to lay claim to be the greatest champion in the land.

She spreads her arms wide to encompass everything that can be seen.

Seleana Zdunich: Whole cities grew around it, taking their place as great centers of everything and making the railroad even more powerful as they did.

She shakes her fist.

Seleana Zdunich: Nothing could challenge it.

She sighs heavily. 

Seleana Zdunich: Then Route 66 came about and the automobile rose up. The very things that had once given it power now cast the railroad aside because Route 66 was much faster and easier. More towns grew into cities because of being with Route 66. Songs were written for it and it usurped the railroad's place and the railroad quickly became…

She nods sadly in acknowledgement.

Seleana Zdunich: An afterthought.

She glances back at the sign.

Seleana Zdunich: Route 66 became the king of everything for a time as well. People worshiped it like a god.

She nods almost sadly at the sign.

Seleana Zdunich: And then the interstate system came into being. Airplanes came to help challenge as well. Buses and cars that had once stuck to roads like route 66 abandoned it for the interstates. Towns that had been growing were suddenly left behind as others grew and prospered near the interstates.

She reaches up and places her hand on the sign.

Seleana Zdunich: Route 66, that had once been the champion of champions that had dethroned the previous champion, was now an afterthought as well.

Seleana nods dolefully at the sign.

Seleana Zdunich: Ariana, Georgie and I have been looked at like this as well.

She turns to face the camera again.

Seleana Zdunich: We have all been on the rise and touted as things that should take over only to have others come along usurp that position out from under us.

She nods pointedly.

Seleana Zdunich: Ja?

She nods, a small smile coming to her face.

Seleana Zdunich: So now we stand in this match that others will dub the “pissbreak match”

Seleana shakes her head in disgust.

Seleana Zdunich: They make hens out of feathers.

She turns and points to the sign behind her.

Seleana Zdunich: People call us afterthoughts but this is an opportunity to rise again in a different way just like Route 66 and the railroad have.

She steps back from the sign and nods to it knowingly.

Seleana Zdunich: Now, they are tourist attractions here in Flagstaff. The old depot is still a train station but it is also now the welcome center and visitor center. Route 66 is plastered all over town and the songs have given it new life to attract people to come see why they were written to begin with. They were given an opportunity for new life…

Seleana turns and looks gravely into the camera.

Seleana Zdunich: As are we.

She nods.

Seleana Zdunich: Ariana, Georgie, we can look at this as a waste of time and a waste of our talents. We can see it as a nothing match with nothing at stake. You are welcome to that opinion if you wish it, but I…

Shaking her head, Seleana points to herself in the chest.   

Seleana Zdunich: I refuse to see it that way.

She points again into her chest.

Seleana Zdunich: I see this as an opportunity to put everyone else on notice. This is our chance, my chance to steal this show and remind people what we were and what we can be again!

She nods, her hand balling into a fist.

Seleana Zdunich: This is it, Ariana and Georgie. This is our opportunity to show the world, to show the roster, to show the company that we are not just warm bodies to take up space and keep the ring in use while those that actually matter wait their turn.

She shakes her head.

Seleana Zdunich: No! This is my chance to remind everyone of why I am here. This is your chance to do the same. Call it an afterthought, call it what you want, but I do not see it that way. 

She points first to herself.

Seleana Zdunich: I am not an afterthought.

Then to the camera

Seleana Zdunich:  And neither are either of you.

She nods and then slaps the sign behind her.

Seleana Zdunich: We are attractions that people pay to see and it is time we remind everyone else of this. If we are to go down, then it will be in such a Blaze of Glory as to make others stand up and take notice!

She pounds her fist into her other hand.

Seleana Zdunich: Välkommen till djungeln. I will see you there and I will make certain this is not an afterthought match!
