Jade & Kevin walked into the meeting room. Jade took a seat near the back while Kevin headed to where the NWO & Shawn were sitting. She was looking around taking in different faces, some she knew either from TV or in her time working with WCW or ECW. She then thought she saw someone but wasn't sure. Standing up she walked over to get a closer look. What is she doing here? Her voice a questioned tone hopping she wouldn't look or feel stupid.

"Krys?"

A young lady in a red tank top & blue jeans turned her head from where she sitting talking to a taller short almost buzz cut blonde man in a white shirt & jeans. The girl just faintly smiled seeing Jade she stood giving her a hug.

"Hey Jadie."

"Hey sis...what you doing here?"

"Same as you...Job." Jade Faintly jabbed her in the ribs. " Hey, what's that for?"

"One for not telling me, & two for getting on my case 'cause I didn't warn you."

"Turn around is fair play I guess."

"Yea I guess...So who's the guy?"

Krys looks over her shoulder with a faint shrug. "oh him...no one."

The guy quickly stands up behind Krys. "What? Me a No one?"

"Sheesh just kidding. Calm down before you jump out of your shoes John. Jade, this is John. Someone I been well...corresponding with the last few months. Jo..." Before hse could continue.

"Just corresponding with Krys? Why so shy?" Jade was now getting sick of this having a good idea of the hint.

"I get the point...John Right?"

"Yea Right & you are?"

"If you had let her finished she would of gotten my name. Krys I liked Juvi better...oh well, catch you later."

With that Jade turned returning to her seat. She stopped for only a second seeing a dark skinned girl in a deep blue suit & matching pumps. Her hair straitened only slightly pulled back with a barrette. It wasn't the outfit, the hair, or her skin that caught her eye. What caught her attention was the fact the girl was a bit on the heavy side. Something she knows from being in the company is a rarity, or like a miracle to see. The girl looked back at her with what Jade couldn't read as curiosity or a sneer of some sort of contentment. She gave a brief chuckle to herself before Jade continued back to her seat.

As she sat there she saw various people looking over at her, some she recognized from WCW or ECW. Some when she nodded or waved they did the same, while other ignore her. Oh well no big deal to her. What was odd these two sets of guys, or more like a guy from each group she could tell keep looking over at her. You know the when you look, they look away. At least some of the time. One of the guys she knew was Undertaker, someone she personally wished to know more about, but at the same time something told her to keep her distance from him. The other was one of two long haired blonds, something about him seemed familiar but she couldn't place her finger on what it was. You know the you should know them from somewhere but where feeling?

This happened for about 5-10 minutes when Bischoff walked in & up to the front of the room.

"Ok now, everyone quite down so we can get this wrapped up."

The room filled with groans for a few moments before it finally got quite. The normal boring announcement lasted for about 15-20 minutes before he got to the announcement of new staff.

"Ok last order. We have 6 new people, but only 5 could make this meeting. First off from OVW we picked up the talents of two of their wrestlers along with their managers. First, Randy Orton & his manager Alisha. I know quite a few of you know the Orton name, from his dad & Grandfather."

This caused quite a few groans from the room as Randy & the woman Jade took note of earlier just faintly waived. A conceded air to them both was an understatement. Once the room quieted again he continued.

"Next we have John Cena & his manager Krystle." John stood up a wave before sitting, while Krys just sat there, not really to be one who liked the center of attention. She finally did stand up briefly only after John nearly pulled her out of the chair. After the 'show' was over Bischoff continued.

"Both ladies are starting in manager roles, but later may move into a role of one of our Divas. Lastly we acquired a wrestler I had known to a point a WCW. A bit of a mystery to everyone & I guess it was that sense of mystery that made this wrestler feared & respected. I know he may be hard to approach to give a warm welcome I know you all will give him. The wrestler I speak of is The Shadow."

Before he could continue there was a wave of mumbles through the crowd. Jade could read it as a mix of skepticism, curiosity, & fear. Seemed The Shadow's reputation continued to spread even after 'he' vanished. Bischoff motioned & waited for it to quite before he continued.

"While he could not make it here today his...liaison is, some on you from WCW may remember her. Even a few from ECW may as she was trained as a rigger at the ECW arena. Her name is JadeRose. She isn't an on camera personality, but acts as the Shadows eyes, ears & voice at meetings."

Jade briefly raised her hand jus to show people who she was.

"Ok meeting dismissed. Grab your assignment list on the way out."

The room was filled with movement as some couldn't wait to leave.
