Author's Note: Athena and Devon Sawyer are one of the few newest Knockouts. They came with their brother. What they hadn't expected when they signed on was to be offering Velvet Sky a spot on their team nor their brother falling hard for a woman. Or catching the eye of two very different wrestlers. Check my profile for Athena, Devon, and Colton's information/looks.
Disclaimer: I only own Athena, Devon, Colton, and the various other OCs that wonder about. Otherwise TNA has rights to their wrestlers and the wrestlers own themselves.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Thursday March 24th, 2011 TNA Impact Hallway (Athena's POV)~~~~~~~~~~~~
I couldn't believe my luck. Mikaela Jones. She had been one of my few inspirations to switching from a model into a wrestler. The other was the death of my sister Chloe. I walked toward the locker room I shared with my sister and brother. My brown hair hid my smile. I didn't notice the people checking me out as I walked. It came with the territory of wearing a pair of boy shorts and a white blouse that the edge reached my shorts. I had on four inch stiletto heels and it made me six feet tall in the heels. I was sort of short my sister topped me in height.
I walked into the locker room and couldn't help the little bounce I did.
"Thena don't do that." Colton scolded. His grey eyes flecked with blue had a smile in them.
"You're not going to believe who I just ran into." I said clasping my hands in front of my chest.
"Who?" Devon asked. Her blonde hair framed her face. I had a more olive tone to my skin then my brother and sister. Devon's hazel eyes held the same luster as mine did.
"Mikaela Jones." I gushed. Devon's eyes widened.
"Okay, ladies before you have a group screaming match can I get ready for my match?" Colton asked. I stuck my tongue out at my older brother.
"Who are you wrestling against again?" I asked.
"Douglas Williams if you'd pay attention." Colton said. I rolled my eyes.
"We still your valets?" Devon asked. Colton nodded his head. We did everything together. Most of the time. We watched the show and Devon and I exchanged looks after Velvet got attacked. Colton caught the look and shook his head. He grabbed our hands and led us out of the locker room. See that was Colton's mistake. He wasn't watching where he was leading me and I ran into a very hard male body and for the second time that day was on my butt.
"Colton Joshua Sawyer!" I snapped. A hand wrapped around my wrist and pulled me up. I looked up at the masculine face.
"I'm sorry about that my brother is impatient." I said.
"You're new. I haven't seen you around before." He said.
"I just got signed. I'm Athena Sawyer." I said.
"Tommy Mercer but out there I'm Crimson." He said.
"Nice to meet you. I've got to go my brother needs his other valet." I said with a smile before I went to catch up with my brother and sister. I smack Colton upside the head.
"Ow what was that for?" Colton asked.
"For running me into Tommy and not waiting for me." I answered.
"You're really touchy today." Colton mumbled. I glared at my brother and listened to "Hell Yeah" by Rev Theory play.
"From Sterling Height, Michigan being accompanied by Devon and Athena Sawyer standing at 6'5'' Colton Sawyer." JB said. I looked at Douglas and looked at Devon out of the corner of my eyes. Devon was hiding something. I don't focus on that but watching out brother wrestler. We had gotten into the business for Chloe. I absently rubbed the back of my neck where her tattoo would forever grace my skin. When Colton hit his Face Breaker he picked up the victory. Devon and I got into the ring and celebrated with him. Devon and I would have our first match next week. We just didn't know that the lady that hired us would through a wrench in our plans. I walked with my siblings to the back.
"You should go walk around and see who you can find." I said. Devon looked at me weird.
"Are you serious?" Devon asked.
"Yeah. Maybe scope out the tag champs because you and I both know we want them." I replied. Devon laughed. I smiled and I walked with Colton back to our locker room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Devon's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I watched my sister walk away with Colton. Something was up. Athena was the only person I knew who over analyzed things. I didn't know if it was the shift from being a model to a wrestler or Chloe's death. My thin four inch heels clicked on the tile. I had on a pair of dark blue skinny jeans and a black blouse. It was interesting to walk around and listen to everything.
I was already tall. I was a decent 6 feet even and my heels added four more inches to that. Not only that but most of my height had to do with my long legs. I heard the occasional whistle but I ignored it. I was used to it from being a model. I mean I had loved my job but this was something so much more fun. I was walking around and wondered into the Knockout's locker room. I saw Velvet sitting in a corner and I went over to talk to her.
"Hi Ms. Sky I'm Devon Sawyer and I wanted to introduce myself." I said. Velvet glared at me for two seconds.
"Wait are you one of those girls who want the tag titles?" Velvet asked.
"Yes, my sister and I want them." I answered.
"Which means you want Sarita and Rosita right?" She asked.
"I think so." I said. Velvet smiled and stood up. She shook my hand.
"Nice to meet you Devon. You ever need backup let me know." Velvet said. I nodded my head before I left the locker room. I just wondered around. I hadn't expected anything to happen but then I found Matt Morgan. I wasn't going to say anything. I was actually going to just walk away but clicking heels normally gives a girl away and he looked at me. No use trying to be invisible now. I walked over to introduce myself. What I hadn't bargained for was how easy it was to talk to him. I actually lost track of time. We had just found a place in the back and started talking. I noticed the looks but I didn't really care.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Athena's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was time to go and we hadn't seen Devon in a while. I had Colton taking the bags to the car. He had made me put on jeans so I slipped on skinny jeans and went to search for my sister. Now where was my sister? I checked a few locker rooms and I actually ran into Tommy again. I had also exchanged my heels for a pair of sneakers.
"Who are you looking for?" He asked.
"My sister. I haven't seen her since I told her to go exploring." I answered as I put my hands in my back pockets.
"You want help?" He asked. I smiled at him.
"Sure." I replied. We continued on our way to find Devon.
"You seem shorter." He said.
"I am. I was wearing four inch heels. I'm now my normal height of 5'6''. I got the short end of the height stick. My siblings got all the height. My brother is 6'5'' and my sister is 6 feet even." I said.
"You did get the short end of the stick there." Tommy said. I nodded my head.
"I don't want to sound forward but can I take you out to dinner sometime?" Tommy asked. I looked at him and blinked my grey eyes that were flaked with cerulean blue.
"I'd like that." I said. He smiled at me and I looked to the side and saw my sister.
"Found her. She's talking to a guy." I said.
"Matt Morgan to be specific." Tommy said. I held up one finger.
"Oi Devon, Colton wants to go home and you know how he gets." I said. Devon's head jerked up and she nodded. She said something before she joined us.
"I'll see you next week." I said. I started to walk away but stopped. I looked around and found a random pen and paper around and I wrote down my phone number. I handed it to him.
"In case you want to talk to me before we go out." I said as I left with my sister.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Crimson's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every since she'd run into me I had been curious what the brown haired grey eyed woman was doing around here. She didn't look like she was built for this business. I had taken some time and asked around and she wasn't but she wasn't going to let that stop her. When I got the chance to spend just a little bit more time with her looking for her sister I didn't mind. What shocked me was that she gave me her phone number. I hadn't expected that. She was going to be a weird one. Matt walked over to me.
"What do you think of the Sawyer girls?" Matt asked.
"They'll keep us on their toes." I said. Matt nodded his head. There was something about those girls that would shock all of us. Then again they weren't like normal people.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Matt Morgan's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hadn't expected it to be so easy to talk too. I don't know if it was her personality or what. She seemed like she wasn't used to the world we lived in. Yet she knew what she wanted. She made everything seem so easy. Though the Sawyer family was hiding something and no one knew what exactly. I had heard that Devon and her sister Athena had been models but how they got into the wrestling business was a mystery to all of us.
We didn't need to worry because Phoenix had brought them in. We always trusted Phoenix's judgment most of the time. I agreed with Crimson about the girls. They'd keep us on our toes. I said my goodbyes and went to get my stuff so I could go back to the hotel. It had been a long day and I was wondering how long Mikaela would be in her state. We were all worried about her.
