Divas Prison Ch20

Days had passed since Becky had made the 'deal with the devil' as Paige would always refer to it, and there had been no signs of any kind of progress. The only thing that had happened was they had somehow got Lita to agree to let them proceed, as long as it remained non-violent and got Natalya back. Lita had respect for the Hart family and wanted to do right for Natalya, as well as keeping her and the family happy. Lita knew that anything against Natalya could come back on her. What wasn't helping was that Sasha hadn't made any attempt to tell them what was going on. "So much so the so-called Boss, I knew she couldn't get Nattie back. All talk, what a surprise." Paige had been ranting about it off and on since the offer was made.

"Look, if it will make you feel better, I'll go talk to her." Becky suggested.

"Fine, lets go" Paige got up but Becky got in her way.

"You know that's a bad idea, she said she wanted to deal with me over it, plus if you go over there like this it's not going to help anything." Paige flopped back down on her bunk, arms folded, sulking.

"Fine, but if you come back with even a scratch..." Becky tried to calm her down with a kiss on the cheek, which turned the pout into a smile but Paige still didn't like her going alone.

Becky found Sasha in her cell with Naomi. She knocked on the door to get attention.

"Well well, what a surprise. What do I owe the pleasure to?

"Sasha please, I just want to know what's going on with Natalya, it's been days and we haven't heard anything from you." Sasha just smiled and walked up to her.

"I like that you think I'm able to do so much, so fast, maybe you're going soft on me. These things take time, it's all in hand. Ok?"

Becky shrugged. "Ok, just work fast, alright?

"You got it." Sasha tapped Becky on the arm and went back to what she was doing. Becky took the hint and went back to Paige.

"So what is taking so long with those twins? It's not like you to not be able to get a response out of somebody, whatever that response may be!" Naomi asked Sasha, laughing slightly.

"I know, but I think the problem is that I haven't been to talk to them yet. Just my first little bit of payback to them, but if they're getting ants in their pants over this, maybe it's time."

Sasha decided to go and see them after lunch, but kept an eye on them as much as she could until that point. She watched the whole time they were eating and didn't see anything specific, except for the fact that they didn't really seem to be saying much to each other. She kept that in mind in case it helped. When lunch was over, they both returned to their cell. Sasha took Naomi with her and put her outside the door, just as she did before, ready to give her backup if necessary, and keep any unwanteds out, which was of course, everyone.

She found the twins on their bunks. One was reading and the other was just lying there. Neither of them spotted her and both jumped more than expected at a simple "Hi" from Sasha. They both were quickly on the defensive.

"What do you want?" One of them asked, clearly uncomfortable with her being there.

"Hey, don't worry, I'm not here to give a beating, I just want to say hi, get to know you maybe. You're a bit of a novelty you know, twins in here together."

"Well excuse us if we don't want to be a circus act for you. The only welcome we've had was a sneak attack and a week in hospital. Why would we want to get to know anyone?"

"I get that you didn't get much of a welcome, but now you've had a bit of time, I wanted to try and make a better impression than she did."

One scoffed but the other thought about it more. "I guess so, we can't keep to ourselves forever. Look, my name's Brie, that's Nicole."

"Brie, don't talk to her, you don't know what she's up to, you want to go back to hospital?"

"Wow, she's moody, if I wanted to put you in the hospital, you'd be there by now. Well it's nice to meet you, call me Sasha." Brie got up and shook her hand.

"Look, don't mind my sister, she's been like this for weeks now, pretty much since we got locked up. She's got a real problem admitting when I was right and she wasn't." That immediately got a reaction from her sister, who spun around and went overboard.

"Oh my god, Brie, will you stop getting all high and mighty over me! Just because you got proven right doesn't mean you know everything! It was a ten million dollar deal I was trying to save! Don't you act like you were going to let it go!

Sasha backed up a step, not scared, but surprised at the outburst. "Okaaay, someone needs a whole lot of calming down. Gotta say though, ten million sounds like something I'd want to save too."

That gained her some ground with the other twin. "See, she gets it!"

"Yeah, but her desperation for this deal is what got us where we are now. She got us caught in one of those 'entrapment' things. Ruined our business."

'Business' was always a word that appealed to Sasha, who always liked to make some money, the easier the better of course. "So what business are, or were, you in exactly."

Brie spoke in a very innocent tone. "We ran a simple supply service for pharmaceuticals. There was a lot of demand for certain products and we filled it, for a reasonable charge. Problem was the authorities weren't fans of our operation."

Sasha tiled her head in disbelief. "So you're drug dealers?" Brie brushed her off. "Please, a drug dealer is some loser on a street corner with a bag of pot for $20. We dealt in quality products for real money. We made deals for hundreds of thousands at a time. We had the whole thing down, no risk, maximum reward. We lived like queens. Then somebody got greedy."

Nikki butted in and started raving again."They offered enough product that we could retire on the profit. A one time deal. I wasn't about to pass up the chance to be able to live in luxury and neither were you. I'd make the same choice every time."

"Yeah, and we would get caught every time, wouldn't we!" Brie snapped back, silencing her sister. Recomposing herself, she turned back to Sasha. "Sorry about Nikki. You see, she enjoyed the money we made, designer clothes, expensive shoes, you know the type. So when the chance to make that much money came about, she went mad. I thought it was too good to be true and it was. I tried to talk her out of it but she convinced me. Problem was, the cops had gotten to one of our contacts, who helped trap us. He offered us the deal, but said we had to be there ourselves, which we never did. That's why I wasn't as sure about it as she was, I wanted to back out but I let her talk me into it." Nicole went to interrupt again but was stopped before she could. "Just don't, Nikki. We were set up. As soon as they arrived with the goods, there were cops everywhere. That's when I knew we were set up, the timing was too good. That's why I couldn't stop screaming at you, you got us arrested and you just can't admit it. Everything worked so well for so long, they never could connect us to anything, the product or the money. Thanks to you they caught us with both!"

"Oh moan moan moan, I've had enough of it!" Nikki now got up from her bunk. "I'm sorry about her Sasha. She's not normally like this, but I've been having to put up with it for weeks constantly. She was screaming at me while we were arrested. She just kept going on and on. I'm sitting in the back of a cop car, handcuffed, and she's screaming so much the cops are laughing at us. We got into a fight in the jail cell that night because I couldn't put up with any more."

Sasha couldn't take any more, she's tried so hard not to laugh but she lost it and suddenly both twins were looking at her in a united display of anger, which stopped the laughter. "Hey don't get mad at me. In here that's a funny story. If it wasn't for the obvious, anyone could tell you're related. Now just chill for a second. I'm glad you were able to share your life story, but I'm more interested in slightly more recent events."

"So you want to know about the other fight." Nikki said. "How is that your business?"

"None of what you've told me is my business, but it doesn't mean that we can't help each other in some way because of it." Sasha said in a way that really seemed to get Brie interested. "Ok, but it goes back further than anything. When we got started, we looked to the Harts for a partnership to get things started quicker. We offered her a great deal but she passed on it. She brushed us off like we were scum for spotting a market and wanting to take advantage. So we swore we'd get her back. It took months to make any kind of progress here but with our help from overseas, we got her. We tipped off the police that she was a big drug dealer and got her busted with a ton of our stuff. We lost the product but it was worth it, from then on we met no opposition from the street dealers and made our fortune. I guess she never let it go."

"No kidding she never let it go, I've never seen her open up on anyone like that." Sasha said, but I've made arrangements to make sure that you will never have to worry about her again." Brie frowned "Why do we need to worry about her now? They took her away didn't they?"

"They can't keep her in solitary forever, eventually they have to let her out and she'll find her way back here somehow, with her connections." Sasha had no idea if she could, but certainly had the twins convinced. "However, if you tell the warden you don't want to pursue any complaint or charge against her, I can guarantee your safety."

"Yeah, sure you can, but I bet you want something in return." Nikki said, with more attitude than she planned. Sasha didn't like that but carried on. "Yes I can, and yes I do. I have already taken the steps needed to make sure that you have nothing to fear from her, or her friends in here, in any way. I can get one of them to back me up on that as well if you want me to. All I'm asking in return is a business arrangement. I had other ideas but from what you've told me, I think that we could make a good team. You said you're business women right."

Brie's ego swelled at this. "Yes I am a business woman. I don't consider myself a criminal and I never will. So what is this arrangement you have in mind?"

Sasha now spoke quietly, wanting to make sure nobody heard what she had to say. "You've got the connections outside that I need to get the drug trade going again in here, the guards and Warden both managed to get it wiped out here over a year ago and Lita hasn't allowed any of it since. If you can get it in, I've got the means of distributing it to people here. Nobody's going to trust you after what they saw Natalya do to you so you need me as much as I need you. We work together and split all profits down the middle. Best of all, no interference from your enemy or any of mine."

"And what good is money to us while they've got us locked up, when we don't belong here at all and if they get their way, we may never see the outside again. All I want to do is get out of here. I bet you can't make that happen can you." Nikki said.

"If I had a way out of here, do you really think I would be here talking to you right now? Sasha answered back, getting little more than a shrug of the shoulders in response. "However, a quote I've always loved is true here, "You gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power.."

"Then when you get the power, you get the woman. I know Tony Montana." Nikki said, but I'm not after the woman, can't say the same for her always of course but that's a different story."

Brie went a little red and slapped her sister. "This isn't the time Nikki. But she's right, how does this help us?"

Sasha sighed. "You two really haven't been to prison before have you? This is my third time and probably my last, short of a severely ignorant parole board, so I know what I'm talking about. You get the power and you get ahead. With guards, other prisoners, whatever. If we get on top, we can use that power any way we want. If that's to find a way to escape then that's up to you. But it won't be quick and certainly won't be easy. And it won't happen at all if you don't take me up on it, I don't see how you can pass me up. Unless you just want to be another criminal that got caught."

"Don't call us that. Ever." Nikki got in Sasha's face but was pulled back by her sister.

"Nikki don't. Sasha, she's right, don't call us that word, I told you we aren't criminals, we are business women. And as such, I'm interested in your proposal. You get us the affirmation that we will be able to operate without interference and it's a deal."

Sasha smiled. "Smart girl. I'll arrange a meeting between four of us tomorrow. We will have to do it out there of course so be discreet."

"Not a problem, we've had to do that for years to stay on top."

"Right, well that's all for now, you start making calls/plans/whatever you need to do, I don't want to hang about on this and I doubt you do either. Be ready tomorrow during yard time." Sasha got nods from both twins and left it at that." She went back to her cell and saw Naomi. "Ok, I need you to run interference tomorrow so I can get everyone talking." Naomi nodded her agreement. "It went well then?"

"Better than hoped. They're connected. I can become the most popular woman here. Thanks to them, I can reestablish the pipeline." Naomi knew what she meant and was shocked. "Really, I thought you were looking for more support, not a supplier."

"I was, but it's amazing how people can surprise you. Those two are my ticket back to the top."

"So am I taking orders from them now?" Naomi sounded less than thrilled at the idea.

"Hell no, you work for me, and so do they. If, or should I say when, they use up their usefulness, they're done, one way or another."

Back in their cell, the twins were also discussing their agreement. "Do you think we can trust her?" Nikki asked.

"Of course not" was her answer. "She's no good criminal scum. We need to find out more about her, but there's no harm working with her while we need to. Plus we get to stand tall above the Hart family. Once we get that power, we won't have need for her, so we use that power to get rid of her. I don't care which side of the wall we are on. If she can't help us, we drop her. Agreed?"

"Agreed." Nikki said with a grin.

A/N: Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Everyone's got an angle on this deal, but can they work together to get what they want? Becky and Paige will be back next chapter.

I never thought I'd reach 20 chapters of this. The only reason is you all. I know I say it after every chapter, but I'd have never got this far without your support. The reviews I received have been wonderful and have meant the world to me. I hope you continue to do so, plus anyone else who would like to.

Hugely disappointed in the Divas result at the rumble. I really wanted Becky to take it. I saw a fan picture of her looking distraught sitting by the announce table after the match. I just wanted to give her a hug! I guess Sasha is next in line which makes sense and she looked great last night. More like she did in NXT which is the way to go. Hopefully this Team Bad stuff is over now. I'm hoping for a Fatal 4 way at Wrestlemania with Charlotte, Sasha, Becky and Paige. Will be a classic if it happens.

Saw HHH winning a mile away, as I bet many of you did. It was probably a good call and his match with Roman at WM will be awesome I'm sure. We all know it's coming. One of the better rumble matches for a while. Great to see AJ Styles in WWE finally.

Enough of my rambling. Please follow/favourite. I'm open to predictions, suggestions and requests if you have them.
