Keira is seen in the locker room, waiting on Roxi to come in. She was worried cause of what Kate did at the moment.
Roxi soon enough walked into the locker room, pushing the door open and causing it to slam against the wall. She walks in and sits down, obviously angry at the result.
Keira: Calm....
Roxi: Don't. Just don't. I am really not in the mood.
Keira: That's why I said calm. Don't let Kate fuel your anger. She's not worth it. She'll pay.
Roxi: I should have beaten her. Now I have to live with this for a while. It's going to bug me for a long time. I can't seem to win anymore, and even when I do it's tainted.
Keira goes over and begins to massage Roxi's shoulders
Keira: Babe. It's a slump. You've been in them before. You've fought back from them.
Keira looks down at Roxi
Keira: Remember what happens when you think all this...it led to Cyrus...
Roxi: ... I just need to think.
Keira: I know. I just don't want you going down that dark path again....
Keira sighs
Keira: I can't lose you again
Roxi: I made a promise to you, and to myself, but it's really, really difficult to think about a loss to someone like Kate, when I KNOW I should have beaten her.
Roxi slams her hand against the bench, and the wood buckles
Roxi: Oh... crap.
Keira: This is what I'm talking about....don't worry about Kate.
Keira goes over to a small bag and opens it. She pulls out a little case, looking like a contacts case as she says
Keira: She's mine now....
Roxi: Sigh. It shouldn't have been like this.
Keira: I know. I wanted a real challenge. Not some wannabe champion. That's why I challenged Candy. There's only a few people that give me a real match. You, Candy--
All of a sudden, Keira's phone gets a message. She holds the contacts case and picks up her phone. She sees the card for next week and smiles as she says
Keira: --And Seleana....
Roxi: Well... there's a challenge.
Keira: Yes. Least I can have a proper warm up for the next two weeks, before I rip Kate's spine out in front of everyone....
Keira does a little bit of a evil chuckle, which catches Roxi off guard.
Roxi: No. Don't talk like that.
Keira: Why not? Kate is nothing more than a little worm to me. A worm...I can squish....
Keira holds up the contacts case again as she says
Keira: At anytime....
Roxi: You know we don't do that, and you...
Roxi sees what Keira is doing
Roxi: Not this again...
Keira: You kinda suck at hiding them. I thought you had them destroyed.
Roxi: YOU were supposed to destroy them... not me.
Keira: I told you to do it. If I did, then it would never get done.
Roxi stands up, staring at Keira.
Roxi: I'm really not in the mood for this... Stop acting like this. It's not funny.
Keira: Who said it was funny? Kate needs to be taught a lesson. She will....soon.
Keira then puts up the contacts
Keira: Now, I want to put a smile on your face. How about you shower and I'll let Nate read you a bedtime story?
Roxi: That's not funny either. I'm going to shower, I need to get out of here as soon as possible.
Keira: Spoiled sport
Keira sits back down as she sits waits. After a good bit and a little nap, Keira feels something on her shoulder. She wakes and sees Roxi.
Roxi: You ready to go?
Keira: Yea. Are you feeling better?
Roxi: Only cleaner.
Keira nods as she holds Roxi. She places two fingers on her own forehead and transmits home. Once there, they see Elizabeth on the couch
Elizabeth: Welcome home.
Keira: Thanks. Glad it's normal around you.
Elizabeth: It's not. But there's scarier things out there.
Keira: Yea, Like Roxi's anger face....
Roxi shoots a glare at Keira.
Roxi: Still not in the mood.
Elizabeth: Roxi... Midnight rule.
Roxi stops and sighs.
Roxi: I know, I know.
Keira: Midnight rule? What?
Elizabeth: We have a rule about competitions. Once it's over, you can complain about it until midnight, and then... it's over.
Elizabeth checks her watch
Elizabeth: And it's after midnight. Let it go.
Roxi: You're right. I'm sorry.
Keira laughs at this
Keira: That...is so...CUTE!
Keira gets into a mocking position
Keira: I'm Roxi, I'm so grumpy cause of a wuss named Kate. I'm gonna vent for a bit.
Keira then snaps her fingers
Keira: Now I'm happy again!
Keira giggles
Keira: That...is just funny.
All of a sudden, Roxi slaps Keira upside her head
Keira: OW! Mrs. Johnson, Roxi's hitting me!
Roxi: It's. Not. Funny.
Roxi walks away towards her bedroom
Elizabeth: You know... I expected her to do worse.
Keira: Worse?
Keira looks at Elizabeth
Keira: What do you mean, worse?
Elizabeth: Roxi is very competitive, I'm surprised you never noticed. She can take things very hard. I'm just saying I don't put it past her to be very angry, especially if you keep pushing. You should know that given the superhero stuff you both do how much she wants to succeed.
Keira: I'm usually the one that's competitive, to be honest.
Elizabeth: She wants what's best for you too. But, it's in her blood to want to win badly.
Keira: Damn. I-I'm sorry...
Elizabeth: I don't think I'm the one you should be apologizing to.
Keira sighs and nods. She turns and goes to the bedroom as she sees Roxi laying down. Keira goes to the bed and sits on it, putting her hand on Roxi's shoulder
Roxi: Still not done? Go ahead... keep making fun of me.
Keira: Roxi, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. I didn't know it meant that much to you and I'm sorry for making fun of it.
Roxi: A little late for that, don't you think?
Keira: I know. I wish I had known sooner and I'm sorry.
Roxi: Known? Known that I wanted to win? Well jeez, I'm glad you noticed! Thank you so much for taking a bit of interest! No, don't you worry about it anymore. I'm fine. It's after midnight, I'm done now.
Keira: Damn it, Roxi!
Keira goes over and slams the door hard, breaking a few pieces of the wood, making Roxi sit up
Keira: I'm trying to apologize for being such a ass to you, yet you're being one yourself!
Roxi: ...
Roxi starts to just chuckle.
Roxi: I would have NEVER said anything like that to you. I never do when you lose, do I? I tell you I'm proud of you, I tell you you did a good job. But me? Nah, I don't get that. Roxi doesn't need that. She'll get over it. And now... you're sitting here, telling me I'm acting like an ass? Okay Keira, Okay.
Roxi stands up and takes a pillow from the bed.
Roxi: I'll just stay in the loser's circle in the living room. Good night.
Roxi walks past Keira and walk back to the living room and begins to take out the bed out of the fold out couch.
Keira: .....Fuck this.
Keira goes into the closet and shuts it. She comes back out, wearing her Lady Kat outfit. She opens the window and flies off.
-----------------------------------------
Moments later, Keira is seen looking over the city, seeing if there's anything going on. She was still mad over Roxi acting like this as she uses the communicator.
Keira: Got anything, V?
Vision: No such luck Keira. It's pretty quiet out there.
Keira: Great...picked a night where Roxi's mad at me. I try to apologize and I make it worse.....
Vision: Oh... I mean, it's really none of my business, I'll let you know if anything comes up, but... in my experience, cooler heads usually prevail.
Keira: That's what I was trying to do. But Roxi wants to be such an total ASS about it!
Vision: I really shouldn't get into the middle of this.
Keira: Either her, or Heather acting weird...or that Warren guy....
Vision: It's a weird time, Keira. Unlike anything
Keira: I know. God I know...I guess I'm still thinking about that last project too.
Keira lowers her head
Keira: A bot...that can copy everything. Moves, techniques, the works....
Vision: Sounds... horrifying.
Keira: It sounds good at the same time, V. But in the hands of Heather. It's a nightmare.
Vision: I guess we have a difference of opinion.
Keira: You're right. Guess that's one of the reasons that makes me and Roxi different, yet closer. She gives me encouragement. I give her harsh reality. But she knows I love her.
Vision: I think they call in yin and yang? But... I think if you just give her time, she'll be okay.
Keira: Yea. This is why I went out. I wanted to p--
All of a sudden, a alarm is heard
Keira: Let me guess, Bank Robbery?
Vision: Yeeeep.
Keira: Need to play the lottery. I'm off!
Keira flies off toward the bank. As she does, she lands and looks at the outside. Despite the alarm going off, the front door doesn't look touched at all
Keira: What the....
Keira gets on the comm
Keira: V, you sure there's a robbery?
Vision: Yea. I'm sure of it. It's at your location, too.
Keira: Weird. Look, I know she's still upset, but you better get Roxi down here. Sounds like it's something that she's encountered before.
Vision: I'll call. Not sure how thrilled she's gonna be.
Keira: Thanks, V.
Moments later, Keira stands on the same spot still. She looks up, seeing Roxi come down in her Lady Bedlam costume as she looks at her.
Keira: Hey, thanks for coming.
Roxi: Yeah.
Keira: Vision told me there was a robbery here. Thing is, me and him heard the alarm, but, the door isn't open...at all.
Keira looks at Roxi
Keira: Didn't you tell me that someone stole money from another bank, but there was no trace?
Roxi: The bank I went to everything was taken, and everything was open. Maybe this one was a false alarm.
Keira: You're normally right. But something doesn't feel right. Something's off, LB...
Roxi: Well, only one way to find out.
Keira: We got to break in?
Roxi shakes her head and points to the rooftop
Keira: Oh...the sneak way. Been too long
The two fly up and see a open window on top of the roof. They enter and slowly land to make sure they don't hit anything. Keira looks and does notice the safe
Keira: And there it is.
Keira goes and looks at the safe, but notices something odd
Keira: Ok? No sign of a break in with the safe....
Roxi: So... looks like a false alarm.
Keira: Then why is it open?
Roxi: It could have come loose. It is an old safe. Is this really why you wanted me out here?
Keira sighs a bit. She goes to slowly open the safe. As she does, it looks cleaned out
Keira: Could have come loose?
Roxi: Do we know if there was ever anything in it? I'm just saying that's a possibility that it came ope, and there wasn't anything weird going on. We need something concrete.
Keira: You just want to be right SOOO bad!
Keira growls a bit as she goes and looks around, making sure that nothing was wrong
Keira: An alarm doesn't go off like that, especially in the middle of the night....
Roxi: False alarms happen. I'm trying not to rush to a conclusion that a bank was robbed based on an alarm. But what do I know? You're on it.
Keira: Oh here we go again. Roxi Johnson, not letting shit go again. Even when I apologize cause I knew it was my fault, you drag it along. I'm sorry you lost. I'm sorry I don't tell you, "I'm proud of you, Roxi. Good job!" I'm not like you! I can't be like you! I can't be po-WOAH!
Keira trips quickly over something and lands on her knee. She grunts in pain a bit
Keira: Ow....fuck...
Keira opens her eyes and notices what she tripped over. She sees a arm, but not a normal arm at that. She goes to touch it and it feels cold. She keeps looking, noticing a shine(edited)
Keira: Um....LB?
Roxi: That shouldn't be here. Question is... how did it get in here, and who's the owner?
Keira: I don't know. There's only one person that can answer that and she's either A. Asleep or B. Drunk.
Roxi: I know you hate her, but that's a bold accusation.
Keira: I don't hate her. I just see her as my food rival. Big difference.
Keira looks at her
Keira: But this IS her we're talking about....that and I want to smack her every time she tries to have Nate blow shit up....
Roxi: I doubt she's going to know about an arm. Is it bleeding? I don't see blood anywhere.
Keira: No. Not bleeding. Just metal. From a closer look, it's not prosthetic either
Keira goes to pick it up. As she does, it feels heavier than what it should be
Keira: Jeez...what kind of arm is this!? Adamantium?
Keira slowly hands it to Roxi
Roxi: Hmm... This is... military grade. Someone paid a lot of money for this arm. We should get this to AJ.
Keira: Right. Would be best. You can go. If I go, I'll be arguing with her over stuff that isn't the topic on hand. Plus, you're better at gathering info than I am. That's why you're the brains, my love.
Roxi: ... Yeah.
Keira places a hand on Roxi's shoulder
Keira: I'm proud of you, Roxi. No matter what, win or lose.
Roxi nods, and goes to leave.
Roxi: Well... see what else you can find.
Keira: Got it. I'll update you if I find anything
Roxi heads off, arm in hand.
As soon as Roxi leaves, Keira keeps looking around. She does notices like the other bank in the report. The vault, safe and others were cleaned out, looking like a clean theft, almost no trace. Keira grabs her camera to take pictures to send to Vision. She turns and notices something as well. A piece of metal, the same one from the arm. She grabs a ziploc and places it in it for safekeeping. After getting evidence, Keira flies off, back to her house, the scene fading
----------------------------------------------
The scene opens up in the basement/base of Keira and Roxi's home. Keira is seen looking at the computer, looking at the metal as she sighs.
Keira: This is puzzling...too damn puzzling....
After a moment, Roxi returns with the arm and she places it on the table.
Keira: Hey, Red. Anything on that arm?
Roxi: The metal is a mix. Titanium & Tungsten. Military grade. But, like I said, the owner of this arm could have smashed through the door if they wanted to, but that now begs the question why the arm was even there...
Keira: It couldn't have been put there as false evidence. That much is for sure. A Military Grade arm like that you don't put down for funsies.
Keira looks at the arm for a moment as she says
Keira: Now I'm more curious. But it could be my paranoia acting up again.
Roxi: I don't know, there's a lot we have to think about here. I mean.. the inside of this looks like it fits into a robot or something. Like it fell off or something. But even still, the owner was never spotted.
Keira: No. I wish we had the camera footage, though.
Roxi: AJ's working on that too.
Keira lowers her head, sighing a bit
Keira: I got to worry about Selena this week coming. Now this thing....it has to be her. It has to be.
Keira lowers her head, sighing a bit
Keira: It has to be Heather. There's no one else. That little thing her and Warren said. It has to be lies....
Roxi: I don't know. I mean... he destroyed that thing right in front of us. I know it seems too good to be true. I don't trust it either. But, they haven't done anything outwardly hostile.
Keira: Hell, did we even try to get a piece of that copybot?
Roxi: No... I was...I wasn't even thinking about it.
Keira: Same. This is driving me insane
Roxi: It's very confusing. We have two very similar bank robberies, with no sign of forced entry or tampering with any locks. And then this...
Keira: There has to be some way they're getting in
Keira lays her head back, sighing. She then feels Roxi coming from behind and holding her
Roxi: We'll figure it out.
Keira: I know.
Keira nuzzles her face into Roxi's neck
Keira: I'm sorry for making it worse last night. I am proud of you
Roxi: I'm over it.
Keira: How about I do something nice. I'll take Nate to the store while you and your mom spend time together?
Keira smiles
Roxi: You don't have to do that.
Keira: I want to. It's either that or I post big butt pics on Twitter
Roxi: Fine. But you really shouldn't take Nate outside. At least not very far. His immune system makes him vulnerable.
Keira: I wasn't. It's just to the store and back
Keira thinks for a moment
Keira: Waaaaait. Can't Nate use the camera while I go to the store? He'd be out without being out
Roxi: I guess. If you want to do that, then it's fine.
Keira: It's either that or we take him out. Being honest, I don't want him in any danger
Roxi: He just needs to stay inside, or at least limit him in public. He can still go outside.
Keira: For now, tablet camera. I will get him a new car, though
Roxi: Fine.
Keira nods, the scene fading
----------------------------------------
Keira is seen in a Walmart, rolling a cart around, getting a few things. As she does, she gets bumped by a female.
Keira: Sorry
The person turns and scowls at her as she keeps going
Keira: Ok?
Keira turns and looks at the tablet
Keira: You awake, you monster?
Nate: Mama!
Keira: I'm going to the toys now. What do you want me to get for you?
Nate: Um... I don't know.... Maybe legos? I like Legos.
Keira: Ok. I'll find some Legos, sweetie
Keira turns and sees some Legos, a huge set and it was the last one. She grabs it and puts it in the cart. As she begins to go, a voice is heard
???: Excuse me...
Keira turns and notices that it was the same lady from before
Woman: Watch where you're going ya bimbo!
Keira: Bimbo...what?
All of a sudden, the woman quickly snatches the Lego set from Keira's cart
Keira: Hey! I just got that!
Woman: I don't care! There's plenty! Now get outta here! Stop wasting everyone's space!
Keira: That was the last one, miss. Considering the crisis that's going on. We don't know when they'll bring in any others.
Keira points to the shelf, being fully empty
Woman: I don't care! This one is mine now! Go find something else!
Keira: See? I just want to give that to my son at home. He can't get out cause of this. I can find you something else.
Keira slowly goes to take back the set. As she does, she gets punched hard in the face. She falls, holding her face
Keira: Jeez!
Woman: Take that!
Keira: Lady, all I wanted back was the set that you stole.
Woman: My child needs this! This is ridiculous. I can't believe you just won't find something else!
Keira: But that doesn't mean you can take it from someone else's cart. You know that, it's common sense.
Woman: Just leave me alone! Stop harassing me!
All of a sudden, a guy gets in front of the woman
Guy: Lady, give the woman back the Lego set. She got it fair and square!
Woman: Oh my god! This is such harassment! I need to speak to the manager!
Guy: Funny you should ask that. Considering I AM the manager....
Keira looks up, seeing all this go down. She slowly stands and heads to her tablet
Keira: Nate, go get Mommy real quick. Do that and I'll get you a car.
Nate: Okay.
Keira smiles as she sees the manager and the woman argue. She turns to see Roxi on the tablet
Keira: About time, Red. I got a problem over here.
Roxi: What now?
Keira: I was trying to get Legos for Nate, then a woman showed up and took them from my cart
Roxi: Okay....
Keira: One thing led to another...and...
Keira turns her tablet to the woman and the manager, arguing
Roxi: So... what's going on?
Keira: The woman basically tried to steal the lego set and the manager's trying to stop her. Cops are about to called soon. I know you don't like the idea....but....can you come by as LB and...scare the...what do you call them....Kates? Kims?
Roxi: A Karen?
Keira: YES! That's it! Please? Otherwise, I'll never get the fuck out of here! I don't want the food I got from the deli getting cold! Do you know how cold 300 Wings get!?
Roxi: ... Really?
Keira: I'm hungry too! Sorry!
Roxi: Sounds like the manager is handling it
Keira: I know...but this is embarrassing....
Roxi: I think this is your fight Keira. You got this.
Keira: Right. Time for me to get back Nate's Legos!
As the two argue, Keira goes over to the Lego Set the woman put down. Keira nods to the manager which he gives a nod back. Keira grabs the set and puts it back in her cart. The woman notices after Keira puts it back, now mad as all Hell.
Keira: Sorry, but you stole this, Ma'am. Now if he calls the cops, I WILL press charges!
Woman: What?! I didn't steal anything! She's stealing from me!
Guy: You're the one that stole from her. You're causing a disturbance. I must ask you now to leave the store cause you caused this lady too much trouble and are disturbing the other customers
Keira: Can I go now? I need to get home to my son and my wife
As soon as Keira said wife, the lady goes all kinds of insane
Woman: HOW DARE YOU! YOU FREAK! YOU ARE A DISGRACE--
Guy: Yea, I'm calling the cops. Miss, go ahead, take your Legos and go ahead.
Keira nods and finally walks away. A hour later, Keira returns home, sitting the stuff down in the living room. She goes over and lays on the couch
Keira: What....a...day....
Roxi: You get that all taken care of?
Keira: Put it this way. Facing Seleana this week coming will be better than that. I like Seleana, too!
Roxi: If you say so.
Keira looks up at Roxi
Keira: Why do people like Karens exist?
Roxi: That's a good question. I don't really have an answer for that. I guess... for stories like that.
Keira looks up at Roxi
Keira: ....Does this mean I got to make a Reddit now?
Keira sits up even more
Keira: That's what the kids call them, right?
Keira sighs a bit
Keira: I shouldn't be focusing on that. I got a title match in a few weeks. This week, I got Seleana. I know she'll give me a huge challenge.
Roxi: She will. She's going to really stop your momentum. You can pick it back up.
Keira: I will. I came too far to go down now. I will focus my heart and my spirit. Seleana will give me a good fight.
Keira smiles
Keira: Just another chapter between me and Seleana, waiting to be written!
Roxi: I'll be pulling for you.
Keira nods, the scene fading
=============================
Man, it's been a long few weeks. I'm talking SUPER LONG too. I lost to Crystal. But I will admit, it was a great fight. But in terms of overall battles between me and her. I still got a good few wins over her. Honestly, I can't wait for the next encounter.
Funny enough, I don't have to wait long for the next challenger.
Now last week, I challenged a good friend of mine, Candy to a match. She accepted. But that will be next week. Cause the bosses at SCW threw me a curveball. Which to be honest, I'm glad I did. I hate getting ring rust, especially before a title match.
Now, I brought up Crystal for a reason. I'm fighting her wife, Seleana again.
BUT! This won't be us in a Triple Threat. this won't be us in a Fatal Four Way, either. This is a straight up, one on one match. Which is fine with me.
Now Seleana, we've had our battles before. We've fought so many times, you know my moves so well and in return, I know your moves TOO well. But this is a rare time we have went one on one as well.
Now, as much as I love fighting you and I could fight you all day and night if the bosses could. From what I can remember, especially our last few battles we had. Even though we bring out the best of each other....
....You haven't beat me.
I could be wrong and can't remember to be quite honest. But, especially in the last few encounters, I've been the one to beat you. Sure, a few weren't you being pinned to the mat. But it does count as a loss on your end.
But at the same time. You're a World Champion. A accomplishment I haven't got yet. Something I want and hopefully soon, I'll get. Yet, I don't remember you ever getting a win off of me. Especially since I returned to SCW.
If it sounds like a total insult, putting you down and all. I do apologize for it. But at the same time, you and I know it's the truth. I do want you to bring your best this Sunday at Climax Control. I want you to go all out, make sure you come at me full force!
Cause if you don't. You know what will happen and I mean this with all the love and respect for you. If you catch yourself off guard even once in this....I will....
BREAK A BITCH!
So bring me your best, Seleana. Don't hold back. Give me a good challenge before my title match in a few weeks. I can't wait for this. See you soon!
