Harpin’ On With Harper, Harper’s Suite, Tucson, Arizona

*on camera, start vlog, promo part one*
It’s late at night in Tucson and we see Harper, still a bit tired from wrestling two matches on the High Stakes card, getting ready to film her vlog.
”I don’t normally do a vlog in the early hours of the morning but here I am, doing just that! What can I say? Tonight’s show has left me with a lot on my mind.” Harper sighs as she brushes some hair over her shoulder. ”On one hand I won my match with Bobbie, took me long enough to win a match with the Fragile Wings, right? But on the other hand? Cassie eliminated me from the Rumble.
Look, I may be young but I’m not naïve, I knew heading into the match that is was going to be every woman for themselves and hell, my elimination wasn’t even the worst, looking at you Dawn Warren, but it still stung to be eliminated like that by someone I consider a friend.”
Harper lets out a deep breath.
”I’m not going to confront her over that fact tonight, we’re both tired and we just want to get some sleep before we head back to Vegas tomorrow, but there is one outcome I’m hoping for when we do have that talk.” Harper leans forward and thinks about what she’s going to say. ”In some way, I hope that Young Justice finally debuts in SCW as a result of this, why you ask? Even if we make amends, there’s still gonna be some bad blood between us, and reminding everyone of what a team of friends can do would be a great way to do that.
Off course, the question then becomes: who will be our opponents? London Underground’s members haven’t been seen in ages, I’d rather not wrestle the Zdunichs again so soon and the Go Sisters were never really a thing even when Krystal and Ariana were on the roster, either way though? Me and Cass have shirt to sort out.”

Jessie’s Home, Las Vegas, Nevada
Wednesday the 4th of December 2024, 13:00pm
It’s the day after the incident at Josh’s gym and Harper has just relayed what happened to Jessie.
”So a smoking hot redhead entered Josh’s gym through the emergency exit, left before any questions could be asked and was possibly seen leaving on a motorbike?” Jessie surmised and Harper nodded in response to the question. ”Kid, if that girl was a wrestling trainee then that doesn’t narrow things down, we’re in a business that has just as many smoking hot babes as it does brooding guys!”
”Jess, I’ve been wrestling for over a year now, I’ve noticed.” Harper responded simply as she shook her head. ”I almost blew it off until this Brooke Shields person showed up on my Twitter timeline.”
”The tattooed redhead who says she’s a Go Gym Graduate from LA? Yeah, I’ve seen her.” Jessie nodded as she realized who Harper was talking about. ”Where you able to confirm that?”
”Don’t know why you’d lie about graduating from such a successful gym but Kelly and Hayley confirmed that she graduated during the post High Stakes week alongside her boyfriend Logan.” Harper added before shrugging. ”All they told me otherwise is that she’s talented but is content with being Logan’s manager for now, apparently they signed their SCW contracts too late for Logan to have his debut match this Sunday.”
”That could’ve happened for any number of reasons, I know from speaking to Krystal that Gabriel can be a tough negotiator when it comes to getting his students signed.” Jessie responded with a neutral expression on her face. ”As for the manager thing? Who knows? I know SCW’s a bit low on male talent right now.”
”True, and whatever the case is? Right now my focus is on the tag team match.” Harper responded before stretching her arms a bit. ”What’s your take on it?”
”Surprised on two fronts, that Crystal was able to talk Mackenzie Page into it and that she’s hanging out with London Underground at all.” Jessie responded with a scoff as she shook her head. ”Charlotte and Mackenzie are two of the most vicious bitches I’ve ever wrestled, they alone would be good opposition for you and Cassie but Mackenzie and Crystal? Two completely different personalities and wrestlers.”
”Yeah but doesn’t that describe me and Cassie?” Harper asked as she folded her arms. ”She’s a high flyer, I’m more of an all-rounder, she’s a sassy girl with a wicked sense of humour and, for lack of a better term, I’m more straight laced and straight forward.”
”In a way but beneath all of that you and Cass still bright, intelligent girls, Crystal seems to have turned over a new leaf but who knows if it’ll stick and Mackenzie, well she’s the opposite of you two.” Jessie responded as she shook her head. ”Either way, they will be one hell of a fight for you and Cass, I suggest we get to training down in the home gym.”
”Are you okay to train me? It’s coming up to a year since the health scare that revealed your pregnancy and I’d rather not have a repeat of how I felt at that time.” Harper asked and Jessie turned to her. ”Just saying.”
”Relax, aside from the problems related to my past drug use I haven’t had any major health scares since I started training with Keira.” Jessie assured her as she shook her head and Harper nodded. ”And even those only really manifest as the occasional heart palpitation.”
”That’s good to know, though I’m still going to worry about you.” Harper responded as she shook her head. ”And if that does happen I’ll have the most morbid “I Told You So” moment ever.”
”That’s the spirit!” Jessie joked before leading Harper down to the home gym.

We see Harper leaning against the ring ropes as she prepares to cut her second vlog for the tag match.
”Ever look at a match and wonder “how did that wrestler get roped into this?” Harper asked as she folded her arms. ”That’s what I’m wondering about Mackenzie’s partnership with Crystal, Cassie joked about blackmail material when we did our promo together but I’m not joking this time, I am legit wondering how Crystal got Mackenzie out of retirement to answer me and Cassie’s open challenge!”
Seriously.
”I’m familiar with the members of London Underground off course, I’ve trained at the Go Gym, with Charlotte and Mackenzie on occasion and off course, I know them from their legendary SCW run with the Bombshell and Mixed Tag Team Titles.” Harper added as she started to pace around. ”But that was years ago! I was in my early teens when they were active, are they back to the standards they had back then? The last time they wrestled as a team they lost to Krystal and Alexandra after last year’s Into the Void.
Not exactly an ideal return, is it?”
Harper shakes her head.
”And then we have Crystal, possibly the most controversial SCW Hall of Famer of all time and all because of her various antics over the years, La Rosa Ardiente anyone?” Harper joked as she smirked. ”And beyond that she’s easily the Bombshell I’ve wrestled the most this year! I wrestled her at the start of the year, in the first match of the SCW Callender no less, I got my win back against her sometime later, then I faced her and Seleana in a Tag Team Match with Bobbie and off course, the open invite rumble at High Stakes.
Off those matches Crystal has only beaten me once, I don’t count the rumble since neither of us won that match and she was eliminated before me anyway! Will this be any different for her?
Nope!”

Visiting a local record store, Las Vegas, Nevada
Thursday the 5th of December 2024, 13:00pm
We see Harper going over records at a local store with Josh nearby.
”Didn’t even know places like this still existed.” Harper commented to Josh as she looked over the records in the metal section. ”Makes a change from going through Bandcamp.”
“I thought you’d like this place me and Jessie discovered it years ago when she was going through her “Jessie Deserves Better” phase.” Josh explained and Harper nodded while instinctively rubbing the cheek Jessie slapped. “Still feeling that slap?”
”How can I forget?” Harper responded as she shook her head before looking through the records again. ”And it’s a good break from training with the holidays coming up.”
“Exactly.” Josh responded before spotting someone out of the corner of his eye and frowning. “She’s here too.”
”Huh?” Harper asked before she looked up and saw the same red haired tattooed woman who had visited the gym the other day, she was listening to music though and Harper shook her head. ”Not like it’s a private shop or anything, besides she’s probably just here to check it out like we are.”
“True.” Josh admitted with a nod before he turned his attention away from her. “Have you and Cass thought of what you want for Christmas yet?”
”Haven’t burned through my inheritance yet so it’s not like I need money.” Harper responded with a shrug and Josh nodded. ”And I haven’t spoken to Cass since we filmed that promo at her place either.”
“Fair, I’ll make sure to ask her when I pick Cass up for training later.” Josh nodded in response and Harper grinned. “And don’t worry, I’ll think of something.”
”Good to know.” Harper responded before she resumed her browsing, neither of them noticing the red head leaving the shop and driving off on her motorcycle as they did.
Harpin’ on with Harper, Harper’s loft, Las Vegas, Nevada
Thursday the 5th of December 2024, 17:00pm
*on camera, start vlog, final promo part*
We cut to Harper in her loft and she looks determined.
”Last cycle I only lost one match, the High Stakes Rumble, and since then? I’ve had one thing on my mind, keeping that momentum going.” Harper stated as she folded her arms. ”I know beating Mackenzie and Crystal won’t be easy by any means but that doesn’t mean I won’t give this match my all! Hell, when I have I been known to half ass any of my matches since arriving in SCW?
Don’t answer that, I’m sure some smart asses have their own answers!”
Yep.
”But here’s the thing that I don’t think Crystal and Mackenzie realize, me and Cass? We’ve teamed before, not in SCW but elsewhere in the wresting world, and guess what?” Harper asked as she looked at her nails playfully. ”We know each other’s styles and we trust each other; can Crystal and Mackenzie say the same when they step into the ring with us on Sunday? One way to find out.”
It's that simple.
”Sure, those two have the general wrestling experience on their side but when has that stopped me or Cass from kicking ass in the ring?” Harper asked as she brushed some hair over her shoulder. ”The answer off course is never and this match won’t be any different, and you know what else? We won’t need Josh’s help to win like Christian thinks we do! I mean honestly, when have I needed his help in that way?”
And with that Harper decided to wrap things up.
”Never but that hasn’t stopped Christian from adding Daniel J. Morgan as the opposing team’s manager to keep things even.” Harper added as she shook her head. ”But I guess I’ll have to prove myself in the ring, won’t I, just like I did against Bobbie, same goes with Cass but once we do? Maybe then Christian will see how impartial a manager like Josh after we win because the world needs a new hero and her name is “The Slaytanic Avenger” Harper Mason! Who is not so secretly hoping to fast forward to the new year!”
Harper turned off her webcam as the scene fades.
