Esha Napoleon: Thank you! NeroAnne: Definitely. That guy had it coming. He was lucky he didn't get killed for those comments.

Sniffling and trembling while holding her cell phone in her hands, Tiffany stood in the doorway of Mindy's piano room saying nothing as the rockstar seemingly droned away hard at work on her grand piano James had bought her (it was more like what didn't he buy her?).

"No matter how many nights that you lie wide awake to the sound of the poison rain. Where did you go? Where did you go? Where did you go?" she sang in a tone that Tiffany realized really wasn't hers, so whatever was going to become of this strange project she knew she'd been working on was beyond her, "As days go by, the night's on fire"

"Loo?" Tiffany croaked a bit fearfully from the doorway, making the piano-playing cease and the singing be put on hold as Mindy whipped her head around to see Tiffany a complete shaking mess in the doorway.

"Taryn?" she gasped and immediately flopped off the bench to stumble her way towards her, "What is wrong, Taryn? TELL ME what happened what happened?" grabbing Tiffany's sculpted arms she shook her head and looked Tiffany over, "What happened to you? Did somebody hurt you? Did somebody hurt you, Taryn you look DEAD what is-"

"I'm fired" was all Tiffany could whimper out while looking her best friend in the eye. It took Mindy a moment to think that over before shaking her head in denial.

"What?"

"I'm FIRED from WWE, Loo Loo! I got called this morning I'm in the future endeavors club"

Even though Mindy seemed to be acting surprised, she totally saw that coming. Usually when one was taken off TV for stupid reasons such as this or that it was never good.

"Are you kidding?" Mindy snapped and shook her head with a bit of a scowl, "Why? What did you do wrong, that makes no SENSE you are supposed to be MY protégé its in your contract not to fire you unless you do something really stupid like rape a small child"

"I guess that hotel fight with Drew was enough to do it" Tiffany sniffled and looked at the tiny rockstar for a moment before throwing her arms around her and crying hysterically.

"Oh no no no ssssshhh…" Mindy HATED it when people cried it always made her cry too as a reflex, "It's okay…" she sniffled and nodded while running her fingers through Tiffany's long blonde hair, "It's okay, it's okay…"

"I messed up" Tiffany croaked while actually being held up by her petite best friend, which absolutely blew her away at how physically strong the schizophrenic truly was, "It's my fault, Loo I got arrested. I came out here because I kinda knew it was all over…" her blue eyes clouded and she started to cry harder, "even though I didn't want it to be, I just kind of knew."

"Well I do not want it to be, that's fucking bullshit!" Mindy hissed and ripped her cell phone out of her pocket, "I made an AGREEMENT with that son of a bitch to keep you, Barbie, and Miznark fucking employed that son of a bitch thinks he is going to get away with this?" she snorted and barred her teeth, "I will fucking kill him."

"No, Loo" she sniffled and held onto her when Mindy shook her head and squeezed Tiffany's hand tighter in hers.

"No, Taryn" Mindy corrected and held her hand while leading her out of the room, "I'll make Jamie fucking kill him who the FUCK does Big Mac think he is to fire you? The son of a BITCH" she hissed and shook her head while stomping into the kitchen and jumping on a countertop, "Did you tell Babs yet?"

"No…" Tiffany sniffled and shook her head, hugging Mindy and burying her face into Mindy's neck, "I just wanted to tell you so-"

"No" she waved her off and dug through her contacts before finding the combination of numbers she recognized, "He's fuckin' dead if I sick Jamie on him. Nobody fires my Taryn and lives to talk about it."

"But-"

Already Mindy was on the phone and began SCREAMING something so unintelligible it scared Tiffany stiff. The volatile young woman stamped about like an angry little soldier, barring her teeth and flipping her hair behind her every two seconds to the point that all the kids had run upstairs to watch the show. Kelly immediately ran to Tiffany and held her (she didn't know what was going on) as Mindy made a complete ass out of Vince McMahon and refused to let up.

"NO!" she growled like a wildcat into the phone and slapped a palm to the doorway to the point that it was scary, "YOU LISTEN TO ME! How DARE you terminate her contract when she has done NOTHING! I repeat! NOTHING to damage your company! How! DARE YOU keep Milena Roucka around when she can't wrestle for SHIT and she's ugly as fucking sin! How DARE you! I will NEVER! EVER! Endorse that scum you call a company ever again! I will NEVER make an appearance on your programming ever again! I want ALL my merchandise pulled! I want ALL my videos taken out of your god damn vault! I want OFF your website! And if I EVER EVER find out you are promoting me in ANY way I will slap a fucking lawsuit on you so fast you will be paying until you're DEAD and your grandkids pick up the difference! There will no longer BE a 'WWE' if you EVER utter my name in a show or ANYTHING like that! I OWN ME! I OWN MY NAME! You do not own SHIT Mindy Stratus was a name I created NOT you! NO! I don't CARE what the fuck sorry you are because I know from EXPERIENCE that you are most certainly NOT! FUCK you! FUCK your company! I've fucking had it! Taryn's going to TNA where she will kick ass BEYOND anything you have ever seen FUCK YOU!"

The phone was hung up so fast Mindy almost threw it before taking a few heated breaths and realizing she had an audience, who all started applauding and she just shook her head with a dramatic roll of her eyes before stamping right back into the kitchen and hugging both Taryn and Kelly.

"I love you ladies" she smiled a bit and reached up to move hair out of Taryn's face, "I'ma make a call to some friends in TNA for you, okay?"

"Why, what happened?" Kelly frowned and looked to Tiffany worriedly, "Babe, what happened?"

Tiffany could only shake her head and just watch as Mindy whipped her magic phone out yet again and make some calls to friends of hers. Tears sprang to her eyes and she could think whatever she wanted of Mindy and James, but when the chips were down that girl had her back in ways she couldn't even begin to think about. She was relentless.

"What-up, Easy E?" that was clearly Eric Bischoff she was negotiating with, "I'm meh, not for me I am calling about the most beautiful and amazing person I know who was just fired by your best friend…yes…" she nodded and tried not to go off on a tangent, "I want you to hire her and I want you to hire her NOW. She's hot, she's sexy, she's talented, she's not afraid to take her clothes off…yeah" she nodded and tucked some hair behind her ear, "Yeah I'll bring her in, I don't care what I gotta do I'll just tag along with Jeffrey Nero for the next taping and I will bring her backstage. No, I do not want her near Velvet I fuckin' hate her…Madison is annoying too I do not want her being a bitch to my Taryn…Daffney's a fuckin' weirdo I'll kick her ass…I only want Lisa and Christy around her if I see another one of those bitches I will have a fucking conniption. YES I have that much faith in her, she was not given a fair break fuck, I'LL wrestle her if you would like to see what she can do. I taught her everything she knows I will come to shit with her, but my husband may have to come with me if that is okay with…" she smirked a moment and nodded, "Yes…James…No, I promise he will be on his best behavior he is such a good boy, Easy E. He is not as much trouble as you think he is. I am just not allowed to travel without my guardian and I could not possibly leave him behind he will get so sad, Mr. Bischoff…you understand…So I'll ahhh…" she shrugged and slapped her thigh, "I will most definitely tell Taryn to pack her things" she turned to Taryn and gave her a wink, "and we will see you next week for the screen test! Thank you for your understanding…bye bye!"

She didn't even get to hang up properly because Tiffany's arms were around her and all she did was cry. She didn't thank her; she didn't really say a damn thing because it wasn't necessary. She was never so in love with her best friend despite all the horrible things she'd said about her husband and her relationship with him, there she was getting her another job and daring to chew her old boss out. It didn't get much more dedicated than that, and James walked into the room holding both Elizabeth and Chelsea to see the two women embracing each other without a word.

"Baby Doll?" his instincts of course made him panic and immediately his wife shot out a hand and took his tightly, "Baby Doll, what's wrong? Are you alright? What's the matter?"

"I am okay" Mindy frowned and kissed his fingers individually before nuzzling his hand and snuggling into Tiffany, "But Big Mac fired Taryn and that is NOT cool at ALL!"

"Why?" James frowned and shook his head at Tiffany, "What'd you do?"

"NOTHING!" Mindy shouted at no one in particular and clenched her teeth, "But I wanna fuckin' kill in a way you have never seen I cannot fucking stand that son of a bitch for even THINKING it was cool to let her go!"

"She got him good, Daddy" Tryg marveled his mother's angry phone call with a smile, "She was all stompin' around like this" he mimicked the very way she was holding the phone, pacing about, making the angry face that was too cute to be angry, and flipping the hair he didn't have over his head, "It was AWESOME!"

"She is making Aunt Taryn go to TNA now" Amber said while approaching Tiffany and running her fingers through her hair, "You are coming with her, Daddy, I think."

"Am I?" he asked Mindy hopefully and she nodded silently, kissing his fingers more and dragging him closer by his arm so she could cuddle it.

"So let me get this straight…" James smiled fondly while lying propped on his elbows over Mindy in their bed that night, "My favorite peroxide blonde was fired…"

"Yes" she nodded and gave his nose a kiss as a reward.

"You called your old boss up and ripped him a new one…"

"Yes" she nodded and kissed his nose sweetly once more.

"THEN you proceeded to call up your old general manager and instruct him to place her on his show…?"

"Yes again, my love" she kissed his nose and giggled as he leaned down to kiss her on the lips as long as she'd allow it.

"And you conned him into agreeing and now want to somehow get her on the show meaning she'd be travelling with them and no longer living with us?"

"Correct" she nodded and kissed him on the lips, gently pulling his lower lip into her mouth and sucking on it, "She must miss Avatar anyway she has not seen him in so long, so she can see him maybe on her off days and come up to see us every now and then…?"

"And we're going to a taping together because…?" he nipped at her lips now and brushed some hair out of her face.

"Taryn needs all the help she can get and I want to help her" she nodded and kissed him, "I am giving her pretty much a screen test and we will see where that goes. Most likely they will take her because when we rehearse the planned match I will make her look very very good"

"Wait wait wait a minute…" he frowned and gently trailed a finger down her chest before closing his hand over one of her breasts, "you're actually wrestling a match? Darling, it's been almost five years"

"I do not care" she shrugged and kissed him, "YOU just have to be a good good boy backstage and promise me not to torment anyone while I am making Taryn look good."

"I can always watch, right?" he asked hopefully and she nodded with a bit of a smirk.

"Depends on how good you fuck me tonight" she smirked while lifting a leg and hooking it around his waist, digging her nails into his back and lightly whispering into his ear, "I love you…"

"I love you more" he corrected and drove himself inside her as hard as he could, making her inhale sharply and cry out happily. Her head threw back to where his hand was supporting it from hitting the pillow and she moaned with every thrust coming from his hips.

"Jamie…!" she whimpered and held him close, making James smile and nestle into the crook of her neck.

"I would love to wrestle you on a mat"

"Ooo, Jamie!" she giggled and kissed him hard, "Ask and ye shall receive."

"Cooper! Cooper!" Taylor gasped after they'd run off and threw him against a brick wall in an alley, "Are you KIDDING? Did you see what"

"He called her a whore!" he shrieked and started to seethe, running a hand through his hair and shaking his head at her drearily, "He called her a whore! He called her whore I ought to have fucking killed him he fucking called her a god damn whore that's my mother! That's my fucking mother you don't call her a fucking whore I should have fucking killed him!"

"You did do a nice number" she nodded admittedly and ran a hand over his arm kindly, "I thought they were gonna arrest you"

"For fucking killing him?" his voice spiked back up and he hissed, "Fucking yeah I'll fucking kill him next time I swear I'll do it, I'll do it you don't call her a whore that's my god damn mother that's my best friend you don't her a-"

"Ssssh…rich boy!" she shouted and placed both her hands on a side of his face, "RELAX, babe! You did it, you beat him up! It's over now!"

"NO IT ISN'T!" Cooper shrieked at her and shook his head frantically, "He's gonna go tell everyone that my mother's a whore because I let him LIVE and get away with it! He thinks its okay because I let him live so he can tell everyone! He doesn't have any fucking idea who she is and what I will fucking do to anyone who even thinks its okay to use her and that word in a god damn sentence!"

"And I get that!" she nodded quickly and petted his arm, "Really rich boy, I do! But" she grabbed his arm as he started to bolt off, "It's really better if you just keep yourself on the d-l for a little bit so nobody like, comes the hell after you for killing camera men, you know? Mommy got away with it because she's a celebrity…but they put celebrity kids on trial all the fucking time, its suicide to go back after him!"

"I don't care" Cooper growled and shook his head, "I want to die anyway"

"No you don't" she shook her head as he started to storm out of the alley, really confusing him and making him stop in his tracks.

"What did you say?"

She stood firm and folded her arms across her chest, "I don't think you truly want to die. If you honestly wanted to do it you would have done it already and NOT by fucking drugs, that's to make you feel better. You want someone to come after you, you want that 'special someone' to pull you out of this slump and make everything better…" she shook her head, "but because your people skills are so fabulous you know that's not happening. I tried to help you but obviously I'm not the answer. Whoever you want is out there still and no, Cooper, you're not helping your cause one bit. You want attention and because you're no longer getting it you'll find reasons to make people pay attention to you. Maybe Mommy will see how well you stood up for her and come after you to make you all better like a little baby? Who knows with you at this point, honestly" she shrugged and folded her arms across her chest, "In the end whatever comes, only YOU can help you. You don't need anything but yourself to determine happiness and look at what a job you've done! The self-destruction is a cry for help, not an attempt on your life. You're just waiting for someone to come along, feel so terrible for you that they take you off the streets, and force themselves through a shitload of trials and tribulations to make YOU feel better about yourself and making their lives a living hell paying for something that YOU caused upon YOURSELF! You are NOT punishing YOU like you claim you are…you're punishing Mommy and Daddy and all the other little kids and I find it disgusting" she backed off and shook her head at him, "You're not who I thought you were, rich boy." She backed away and shook her head, "I thought you were someone who was misunderstood…not histrionic."
