September 1st 2015…
At the American Airlines Arena, a black Kia Soul decided to parked alongside the others as the NXT and main roster wrestlers were walking into the building with their luggages. Yukie Shriabuki climbed out of her compact car, as she pulled the keys from the ignition before looking back inside of the car to see her 14 year old sister, Chihiro listening to vocaloid music.
Yukie slammed her hand on the horn, Chihiro jumped before removing her headphones and looked at her sister.
"Come on, I've got a big night ahead of me." Yukie explained before Chihiro rolled her eyes and climbed out of the car, and headed to the trunk to grabbed her oldest sister's luggage. "Here, hold Pepper for me." She stated, before placing her miniature schnauzer in Chihiro's arms.
"Why did you have to bring the damn dog anyway, sis?" Chihiro questioned, before Pepper started growling as Yukie grabbed a dog carrying purse from the backseat.
"You were supposed to be at my place, watching him but you've decided to follow me. All you're going to do is run around and harass people at my new career." Yukie explained, before Pepper climbed in and the raven haired with blue streaks zip up the bag halfway.
"Since when did wrestling become a career anyway?" Chihiro questioned.
"A long time ago but it didn't take a crazy turn until the 90's!" Yukie answered, after rolling her eyes. "After tonight, I'm taking you home and don't expect me to let you back into my apartment, cause I'll be gone on the road next week." She explained, before Chihiro pulled up the suitcase handle and Yukie held onto Pepper.
"I just can't wait to see who will you fighting tonight on your first day. I bet she's gonna slap the taste out of your mouth." Chihiro responded.
"I'll do that to you, if you don't hush the smart mouth. No wander Daddy kicked your ass out of his house." Yukie warned, before she and Chihiro started walking towards the entrance and into the building.
Dark hazel eyes scanned the arena, Amanda having read the script.
'She made it into the business…' Amanda thought with a smile.
"You know her, Darlin'?" Finn asked.
"Yukie and I grew up together… but I haven't seen her in 10 years. I tried calling after I got onto the road but Hiro hung up on me." Amanda responded, absentmindedly playing with her Balor Club hoodie.
"Let's go find her, I'm sure she's around here somewhere." Finn replied before they left.
"Look, I'm sorry that my pig of a sister took all the cupcakes. She's crazy like that even if it comes to sweets." Yukie explained as she apologized to Roman, before she walked off to get herself a bottle of water.
"Look, I'd advise keeping your distance from her."
"Oh come on, you must've seen her walk off somewhere. She's about 5'6", long raven hair and grayish blue eyes. So stop holding out on me, Thomas."
Yukie's head snapped up after hearing that, seeing Baron, Amanda and Finn… but she didn't recognise Amanda at all.
To her, it was like she had never known the 25 year old.
"Fine then… she's over there." Baron responded, pointing towards Yukie before she covered her head with the red hoodie and walked off.
"That's an odd reaction." Amanda replied. "Hey, Yukie!" She called out, taking off from the guys and reaching Yukie.
"Uh… I'm not Yukie." She responded, as she tried to leave once more.
"That's not gonna work on me because the two of us grew up together." Amanda replied, Yukie turning around.
"I don't know who you are. Or what mind games you're trying to play with me, but I do have a match tonight and it doesn't mean I can't knock you out backstage." Yukie explained.
"What the hell happened to you to make you not remember me?! It's Mandy! You and me grew up together running around arenas like this all hyped up on sugar!" Amanda responded.
"Like I said, I don't know you. Now, if you excuse me, I have a match tonight with this so called… Demon Mistress." Yukie responded, before walking back towards her locker room.
"Well that didn't go well." Amanda muttered before she felt a hand on her shoulder… she turned to see Finn and he pulled her into his arms, the two holding each other.
Neither had any idea how much had changed…
Present time, October 19th 2015…
Shattered (Turn The Car Around) by O.A.R played through Amanda's earbuds as she finished applying her white shimmer lip gloss before closing the little tube… she was in a black and silver crisscrossed halter top and black and silver shorts with lace on her hips after readjusting her silver kickpads on her black ring boots.
And heard a knock at the door before stopping the music and pulling Finn's Balor Club leather jacket on her after setting her phone and earbuds aside and going to answer it… only to find Seth in his old Shield outfit and him holding hers.
"If this is some kind of twisted joke, it's not funny." Amanda responded as Seth noticed her ring outfit and thought that it showed a little more than he thought was appropriate… and he handed the black outfit to her.
"We have a match tonight. As a team." Seth responded… before Amanda threw the outfit back at him and Seth stumbled but regained his balance.
"Hell no! You three have a match against the Wyatts, I have my own match tonight!" Amanda replied.
"With who? You better tell the manager to cancel it, because we need our Shield Sister." Seth explained.
"Now you know damn well Hunter won't do that. It's a mixed tag match." Amanda replied before she stepped into the hallway and closed the door behind her before going to find Finn… but Seth stopped her. "You're gonna lose that arm if you don't let go, boy! Who I team up with is none of your business!" She responded.
"Fine then, since you want to act all grown. Is it Yang again? You two don't know when to stop fighting. You two... it seems like you're old friends." Seth replied, letting go of Amanda's arm.
"She's one of the opponents." Amanda replied.
"And your outfit is near stripper territory. Your breasts are swollen and nearly falling out of your top." Seth muttered, Amanda slapping him hard across the face.
"Fucking perv!" Amanda responded before she walked off, Seth rubbing his sore face.
"Save that slap for your friend. Don't use it on me." Seth replied.
But Amanda couldn't hear him.
