Chapter 1: First Day as a Knockout!
Kelly was about to be the newest TNA knockout, and one of many people who had made the shift from WWE to TNA, it was supposed to be scary, but knowing she had a friend to help her get used to it made it seem a whole lot easier.
She hadn't even made a step out of the airport before she was pulled into a huge hug by one of her best friends, Taryn Terrell. The girls were both screaming, similar to high school girls, but it had been nearly a year since they last saw each other. Behind Taryn was one of friends from TNA, Velvet Sky.
Velvet: You must be Kelly; I've not seen Taryn so excited about someone so much before
Velvet said, pulling Kelly into a hug, Kelly couldn't help but laugh,
Velvet: Lemme get your bags
She added before helping Kelly and Tiffany take the luggage over to the limo Taryn had hired for her and her two best friends to take them to the hotel and then the impact zone. The drive wasn't long, but gave them all enough time to have a talk about going out for drinks after the show. Kelly checked in and threw her bags into her room, quickly changed into an outfit, appropriate for the Arizona weather and grabbed her handbag filled with documents and contracts and all her identification to finalize all the details for making the switch to TNA.
When they finally arrived at the impact zone, which was buzzing with fans, the three girls got out of the limo and walked into the parking lot, Velvet and Taryn said hello casually to all the people Kelly had been researching for weeks after being contacted about signing a contract with TNA, people like Aj Styles, Beer Money inc., Matt Morgan, Sting and everyone else, as she walked through the corridors to the stage manager.
Kelly: Hey, I'm Kelly; I'm here to talk to Dixie Carter
She said with a smile, the lady who was the stage manager smiled and said
Stage manager: Mrs Carter is just in a meeting, but you're more than welcome to hang around the knockouts locker room and I'll leave her a message where to find you".
Kelly thanked her and walked to the locker room with Taryn and Velvet.
In the locker room, she was greeted by the rest of the TNA knockouts, including Mickie James, Christy Hemme, Gail Kim, Angelina Love, Cookie, Sarita, Rosita, Brooke Tessmacher, Madison Rayne, Wynter, SoCal Val, Tara and ODB. With the exception of Cookie, Rosita, Sarita and Wynter, the rest of the knockouts were more than welcome the new girl to their division. Some of them were even familiar to Kelly, seeing as some of them had been in WWE, even being close friends with her on screen like Gail, Brooke and Mickie. The socialising was then interrupted by Dixie Carter, the chairwoman of TNA. Kelly was suddenly overcome with nerves at the sight of her new boss.
Dixie: Hi girls, I was told that our newest knockout would be in here and I was told right! Would you like to come with me to my office Kelly?"
Kelly followed Dixie to her office and walked in to see another lady sitting at the desk, she got up to give Kelly a handshake and they all sat down at Dixie's desk and began their meeting about adding Kelly to the roster.
Dixie: So Kelly, after seeing a lot of your work in other companies, I am sure you will definitely be a fan favourite in this company! I'd also like to introduce you to Miss Traci Brooks; she is the president of the Knockouts division
Traci: fan favourite? Dixie, the fans are going to love her, she's beautiful and talented! No chance that she's going to have the guys fighting over her after seeing her perform
Kelly laughed, it was so different here, in WWE she hardly ever heard anything positive about her, and here in TNA, she'd hardly been there half an hour and she was being showered with compliments by the president of the company and her division.
Kelly: I have no idea what to say, but I honestly cannot wait to get in the ring and prove myself here!
Dixie: That is what I wanna hear! Now for the boring stuff, the contracts and all the legal stuff, so have you bought all the papers we sent you?
Kelly pulled out a small file containing all the legal documents and her passport.
Traci: I don't think I have ever seen someone so organised
She laughed, as she flicked through the file, occasionally signing documents. Before looking and Dixie and nodding
Dixie: Well I guess it is official, Miss Kelly Blank, I welcome you to TNA wrestling, if you have any problems feel free to give me a call or email me, or go to Traci, and just to let you know you will be debuting tonight, nothing big, but Myself or Traci will find you to tell you what's going to happen, and unless you have any more questions, you are free to go!
Kelly: Thank you so much
She thanked as she walked out, closing the door behind her and made her way back to the locker room which now only had Velvet, Madison, Brooke, Taryn, Gail and Mickie. She walked in and sat down with the girls who were all talking about their upcoming matches that night.
Madison: So now you're officially one of us, BUT we still need to initiate you into the locker room
The girls are echoed with ooh's as they looked at each other.
Brooke: I got it! You have to go to the catering area before the show tonight and randomly sit down with a bunch of the guys and join in their conversation
The girls all looked her and laughed.
Mickie: Didn't we make Gail do something like that?
Taryn: Yeah and she did it to Matt! It took her weeks to make him realize she wasn't some weirdo who randomly sits there staring at him for 10 minutes.
They all laughed
Gail: Not cool guys! But if we wanna initiate Kelly before the show tonight we better go now!
The girls all got up and left, with Madison and Velvet leading the way and when they got to the catering area, they saw there was about 6 guy's altogether. Kelly had no idea where to look.
Velvet: For a bunch of guys, you'd think they'd get to food earlier
She joked before adding,
Velvet: Now who have we got? There's Jeff Jarrett, Eric Young, Matt Morgan, Robbie E and the Guns
She continued as she scanned the room. Before the girls managed to start arguing who she should go to
Madison: OMG! Please can we send her to Eric! That would be hilarious!
Brooke: No! We gotta send her to Jarrett!
Gail: No! It's gotta be Matt Morgan! He won't know what's going on cuz she'll actually talk to him this time!
Taryn: I don't think we get to choose guys!
She said as she looked over towards the Motor City Machine Guns
Taryn: I mean Shelley hasn't stopped looking at her since we walked in
Mickie: I've got it! She can go over to them and be a bitch to them and then be nice and just confuse the hell out of them
Kelly was quiet the entire time, but it wasn't out of nerves, it was the excitement of not knowing what the hell could happen after she completes her task.
Kelly: I'll do it!
She said as she walked over to the guns, the rest of the girls watched in awe, not expecting such confidence from her
Mickie: I never saw her so upfront, not even in WWE!
Brooke: Me neither! She's gonna fit right in here with us!
They all laughed as they carried on watching. Kelly walked over to the table and leaned on it; with a stern look on her face she began her rant at them
Kelly: Can I help you? It's just that I've seen you staring at me since I walked in, and you're freaking me out, but you are cute, but still weird, so either stop or do something about the staring…Bye
She said waving goodbye to them, as she turned she looked like she was gonna throw up. She hurried back to the rest of the knockouts who were all smiles and laughs. Velvet and Taryn then walked over to them, brushing shoulders with Kelly, giving her a wink and a smile. Kelly ran to the group and hid behind Mickie and Gail,
Velvet: Sorry about that, she wasn't being seriously; it was her initiation as the newest knockout
Alex: She's new?
Chris: Where have I seen her before? She looks really familiar…
Taryn: She used to be in WWE, her names Kelly, but she's in TNA now so you guys might wanna ease up on the staring, especially you Alex
He laughed at the accusing joke.
Alex: I was not staring; I was just admiring how pretty she was
Chris: Dude! Go talk to her! You've been miserable since you broke up with Taylor
Velvet: Shit Alex! Didn't know you guys broke up...
Alex: yeah, about 4 months ago…but I dunno, I mean; she's really pretty
He turned and looked at the girls
Alex: Please don't say anything about what I just said about her being pretty guys!
Taryn: don't worry, our lips are sealed, but get to know her before anything, She's really cool, I mean that's a little biased with her being my best friend and all but she is awesome, you guys might actually get along great! But anyways, we're going out for drinks later, you guys should come, bring some other guys too!
Velvet made a zipping motion over her lips when Tiffany told Alex that they wouldn't say anything, and they were being honest. Velvet and Taryn actually had a really good friendship with the guns, and often trained with them as well as some of the rest of the roster, and they often had a lot of fun on nights out after shows
Velvet: Oh and our friend Naya, she's coming out too, so if you guys do come out, bring that guy…what's his name…Dean Norton?
Chris: Do you mean Pete Morton?
He said with a smile to which Velvet nodded and said yes
Chris: What do you say Alex? I don't have anything planned and I'm sure Pete, Aj and some other guys are free tomorrow so we can go out tonight
Alex looked at his best friend and smiled
Chris: We'll be there!
