5/23/14…
"Rollins, get your ass in here!" Amanda said loudly as her eyes remained glued to the Tv, Seth running in.
"Did I miss it, did they say who it is that signed with us?!" Seth asked, sitting next to Amanda.
"Not yet." Amanda responded, turning up the volume.
"In entertainment news, Prince Devitt has signed with WWE! The well known Irish wrestler previously worked for NWA and most recently, New Japan Pro Wrestling-"
Seth jumped out of his skin as Amanda screamed with joy, throwing her arms around him… not wanting her to suspect he was startled, he hugged her too.
"He's gonna have a hell of a career with WWE, Sethie. I can't wait!" Amanda replied after they let go and she smiled brightly.
"Damn right he is." Hunter responded, him and Amanda hugging and her heading out of the locker room.
"Hunter-" Seth started to respond.
"Bit of a shock, kid?" Hunter questioned.
"Damn right! What the hell, old man?!" Seth yelled, Hunter shushing him.
"Calm down, alright? Come on, we sign new people all the time, what's the worst that could happen?" Hunter responded, acting like a father calming his son.
"Yeah… yeah, you're right. Just reacting from the shock." Seth explained.
"Different reactions, yeah. I heard Mandy screaming happily a minutes ago, I can tell she's thrilled." Hunter replied before leaving.
Seth nodded… and felt the tension surface.
He didn't like this one bit…
Present time, 9/27/14…
"Blood pressure, temperature and pulse are good…" Yukie responded after checking Amanda's vitals… and Amanda looking at her phone before sending the caller to voicemail.
"He'll leave a message if it's important." Amanda replied as Yukie checked Amanda's eyes before Yukie looked at Finn.
"33, right?" Yukie asked.
"I guess you spoke to Corbin." Finn replied.
"Is that who he is? I barely speak to older men." Yukie responded.
"The guy calling is someone who doesn't take the hint that I need space." Amanda explained before her phone rang again and Finn picked it up.
"Seth Rollins, right?" Finn questioned, Seth taken aback by the unfamiliar voice.
"Who is this? Put Mandy on the phone!" Seth responded.
"She's in the middle of a checkup now, Seth." Finn replied, his left hand around Amanda's right hand as Yukie went to go find Dr. James.
And Amanda could tell Finn was showing a lot of restraint towards Seth right now.
"Look, if it's about those injuries she said I caused-" Seth responded.
"There's proof to back up that you caused them, that went beyond scripted and into personal. Honestly, I don't know what the beautiful lady ever did to deserve that. You show no restraint and even less respect for her and I hope one day, you'll regret chasing her away." Finn replied before he hung up and handed the phone to Amanda, who put it on sleep mode.
'Well so much for restraint.' Amanda thought… but she couldn't help but blush after Finn had called her beautiful.
Dr. James checked Amanda over and wrote down what she told him about the nightmares.
"You've been showing great progress on the medicine as far as the seizures go but yes, I think reducing the dosage will help make the side effects go away. So instead of one in the morning and two at night, it'll be one in the morning and one at night. And hopefully by the middle of next year, you can be cleared off of the Keppra." Dr. James responded, Amanda and Finn smiling before they hugged.
And at that moment, Yukie walked in.
"Good news?" Yukie asked.
Amanda nodded before she stood up and she and Yukie hugged.
"I've missed you, Yukie." Amanda responded as they let go.
"I've missed you too, Mandy." Yukie replied before Amanda and Finn left.
It was at the townhouse that Amanda had Blues Power by Albert King playing on the radio… at the same time that she heard a knock at the door.
Amanda adjusted her blush pink open back off shoulder top after she stood up and walked to the door, opening it and her eyes widening.
"How'd you find out where I live, are you stalking me like your old man stalks people?" Amanda questioned as Hiroki let himself in, Amanda closing the door.
"Yeah, probably, where's that little girl at?" Hiroki questioned.
"Yukie ain't here." Amanda responded as she sat back down, Hiroki seeing the nail polish bottles and remover nearby.
But he knew that Essie's Bahama Mama, which was what Amanda currently had on her nails, was one Yukie wouldn't wear as Yukie favored brighter colors.
"I know she was here, Mandy. Because she told me…" Hiroki retorted, before picking her up by her shirt. "Don't lie to me." He warned.
"Take your hands off of her!"
Hiroki barely had time to react before he was forced to let Amanda go, Hiroki seeing Finn.
"Well, look who came back into my life once again. Prince Devitt from New Japan." Hiroki responded.
"That was a lifetime ago, Hiroki. Don't ever put your hands on Mandy again." Finn replied as Amanda carefully moved her recently healed back.
"Devitt, I've known this little girl for the longest and she's playing the innocent card while fucking older men. If you don't tell me where my sister is in this house, the beating I'm about to put on you and... your whore will be indescribable." Hiroki explained, before grabbing Amanda by her hair.
But Hiroki was startled when Amanda dropkicked him, Hiroki coughing on the ground before Amanda jumped up and slammed her tiny feet into Hiroki's sternum… and Finn responded by pulling Hiroki up by his right ear, Hiroki yelling in pain after Finn repeatedly punched him.
"Don't ever! Disrespect her or put your hands! On her again! We clear?!" Finn growled threateningly, Hiroki nodding. "Good. Now Yukie doesn't live here and don't ever come back here!" He responded before he dragged Hiroki to the door, opened it and threw Hiroki at the Equinox.
Hiroki scrambled into his car and drove off as Finn slammed and locked the door before he pulled Amanda into his arms.
"Are you okay, lass?" Finn questioned as he cradled Amanda's face in his hands, Amanda nodding before Finn grabbed the paper that had been given to Amanda earlier and dialed Yukie's number.
"Yes?" Yukie asked.
"Well your brother showed up here and threatened Mandy. She kicked his ass." Finn explained as Amanda put her things away and walked back downstairs.
"What brother? I never had one." Yukie questioned as she was confused.
"Hiroki." Amanda responded. "Yukie, do you still have any pictures of us when we were younger?" She asked, Yukie finding a picture of the three as teenagers.
"Yeah, but no memory about the brother part. Did this man hurt you?" Yukie replied.
"Just grabbed my hair… wasn't exactly pleasant but it didn't hurt." Amanda responded.
"Are you sure? You don't need me to come over?" Yukie questioned.
"That's another reason I called, I'm worried she threw her back out." Finn responded as he got Amanda to sit down.
"I'm on my way." Yukie replied before they hung up.
Yukie had old pictures of her, Amanda and Hiroki as kids but had scattered memories of him.
And there was another reason she had left Ormond.
