On with the show.
Ms. X office Girmov headquarters
X after recovering and snapping back to reality had opened the door's of the headquarters and allowed both her current and perhaps new employees in, the former to train and making plans later in order to be back on air and the latter for interview's, now she's interviewing the Chinese wrestler 'Mei ling' and her agent Nabiki Tendou, she's looking at the papers that Nabiki handed to her regarding her client history and wrestling experience with a calculative look in her eyes as her brain is working like a supercomputer making sure there aren't any lies here that'll only pile up more problems for their program.
In front of her office 'Mei' and Nabiki are seated, the former is literally sweating bullets and chewing her lips in fear 'She must had found out I'm faking being a wrestler, I mean she was a high ranking member in a huge company and properly saw better fake papers than these.'
Before 'Mei' could shake more than she already did, someone elbow's her being her agent "Stop trembling you'll just give us away" Nabiki scolded in an angry yet whispered tone.
"But she found out already, I mean she's a pro" 'Mei' told her agent in a scared whispered tone.
Before the whispered conversations could continue any further X coughed gaining both of their attention "After looking through this I have to say I'm impressed" hearing this had somehow calmed 'Mei' a little but not enough, X then opens her eyes having a friendly look to them "This here is creditable effort, I'm rather impressed by your success despite being of such a young age Mei."
'Mei' let out a sigh of relief "Thanks Ms. X I have been trained in martial arts since a young age and just picked up wrestling a few years ago" she said while scratching the back of her head nervously.
"Now don't sell yourself short it isn't tolerated in this company" X said in a friendly tone but Ranma being a trained martial artist since a young age had felt the cold aura in that statement, seeing X's fights he knows he could take her on and win, but battle's aren't just fought by muscles but by minds as well, Ranma can tell that X is a powerful mind player and makes a note for himself not to be left alone with her.
Nabiki then wrapped her arms around her client's shoulders and had a big grin on her face "Well of course she's good, otherwise I wouldn't be her agent" she then gets up and hugs her client strongly "She's my favourite and believe me out of every sports person I promoted Mei here is the best and anyone not seeing that is a failure businessman."
X nods as this isn't new since a lot of promoters keep doing this with their superstars "Very well congrats Mei welcome to Girmov" Nabiki's smile gets even wider and hugs 'Mei' to the point that the girl is suffocating "Ahem, after seeing how you do in the ring I'll either say that or the opposite."
Nabiki shakes her index finger with an arrogant look on her face "Don't worry my girl never disappoints anyone, I guarantee she'll do the best match you'll ever see and increase your sells."
"We'll hopefully see that" X tells the passionate promoter.
The two leave the office and once out they let out a sigh of relief "Oh god I thought we were exposed" Ranma tells Nabiki.
Nabiki laughs "Of course we fooled her, who do you take me for? And besides if she even rejects us, I still have my guys who can dig dirt on her."
X smirks to herself seeing this interaction via the security camera "Stupid girl, who do you take me for? I wasn't a member of GWM for nothing" Lady enters.
"So Ms. X are you sure to let 'Mei' in?" Lady asked concerned "I mean this could lead to problems later."
X nods "Yes, I'm aware that Nabiki is the notorious ice queen of Nerima and most likely has ways within our company and until we close them up, we'll either keep 'Mei' or not based on her performance, and I can sniff out a good talent when I see one and 'Mei' is one" before Lady could argue a possibility about this not being the case "One thing is clear about 'Mei' is that she's a real martial artist regardless of who she might really be."
Lady nods "Very well the next wrestler is Clementine Cirrus."
X nods and let's her in the large cowboy woman takes her seat in front of X's office "Hello welcome to Girmov I'm Ms. X the founder and CEO" she looks towards her in the eyes "What can you give the company?"
Clementine averts her gaze and shifts uneasily in her seat a little since this's what most wrestling companies asked her and had her booted for one reason or another 'No it'll not be like the last times' she takes a deep breath and looks back in the eyes "I have been a good wrestler since a young age if I say so myself."
X nods and reads through a piece of paper "hmm yes I see you have a good background , you were the champion of the junior Texas tournament three times and you actually out bested both Tina Armstrong and Dixie Clements in a triple threat match and won the NXT women's championship" she looks up towards her curious "If I'm allowed to ask, why did you come to our promotion?" it isn't that X didn't want her here its simply questionable to come to her promotion instead of far more higher ones, Clementine sighs angrily as the question opens up some old wounds that are annoying to bear and fears if she spoke her reasons while being rejected it would only worsen her situation as other corporations would hear of her words and not as mush allow her 10 feet's within their range. X had seemingly caught on this and decides to reassure her "Don't fear anything, speak bluntly I assure you nothing that is said in this room will go out of it, so speak your mind."
Clementine adopts a much calmer expression and starts talking "Well at first considerin that I won the NXT women's championship I thought like many others that Vince would welcome me with open arms but no Dixie and Tina were much more hotter and easier to market, then I went to Ring of honor and they told me that they already had Dixie who joined them over Vince already has the cowgirl act, after that I went to TNA and they told me to change my act and that cowgirls are overused" she sighs a little in anger "After that I decided to try minor promotions like IWF and they told I'm not bringing anything new to the table."
X see's the frustration and nods "So you saw us and came, right?" the cowgirl nods "Well I have to say this's quite a waste of letting go of you" Clementine looks surprised at what X is saying "Like I understand why Vince wouldn't hire you after all he likes 'certain' types of women as for the others I'm baffled you have a lot of potential in the ring and marketing seeing you're the daughter of Lex Cirrus the western sheriff."
Clementine got up immediately from her chair the speed and power of her act had caused the chair to fall on the floor "You know my pops?" she asked surprised.
X is taken back by this "Yeah I mean every hardcore wrestling fan and professional promoters know him, right?"
Clementine shakes her head "Well it's not everybody seein how much I was rejected" she says with another sigh "Most people immediately link me to little sis."
X nods in understanding "Yes, I see your little sister happens to be Melina Cirrus a pro Keijo player whom is the current prize queen of the US as well as it's representative in Keijo" Clementine nods in conformation "I see so her success had overshadowed her father's."
"Yeah its hell did."
X couldn't help but fathom at the goldmine that came to her, she definitely would thank the stupid promotions that didn't take advantage of Clementine not that she would do that since she had turned that page of her life behind, she smiles towards Clementine "Well welcome to the company I'm looking forward to working with you."
Clementine looks towards X with tears in her eyes "Really? I aint dreaming, am I?" X nods, she explodes in happiness and shakes X's hand non-stop "Oh thank ya thank ya so much I won't disappoint ya boss" and gets out of the office.
Lady comes in "Next is Jessie Ellis better from Wales of the UK."
X nods and the English secret agent enters and takes her seat after picking up the chair that Clementine made fall, after doing that she sits on it "Hello I'm Ms. X founder and CEO of Girmov" she looks her in the eyes "What can you bring to the company?"
Celestia breathes in and then out, she hardens her look X is already impressed seeing her being more determined and confident than the last two entries "I'm Jessie Ellis I hail from Wales I graduated the rookie phase 2 years ago and I'm currently a third class pro" she said without taking a single breathe.
X nods "Yes, I see you made it to the top of the UK circuit in a matter of weeks."
"Yes, I was approached by wrestling promotions there like Bellatrix, but I turned them down."
X seems to be suspicious of something and asks, "Why did you turn them down?"
Celestia closes her eyes 'This isn't good she's suspicious of me I need to be more careful with her' she opens back her eyes that somehow had tears in them "My coach died and I was broken, I needed time for myself to get over it so I turned them down and after help from family and friends I got over his death and pursued wrestling again" she says as she wipes the tears from her eyes.
"I'm sorry for your loss I shouldn't have asked" X said in a regretful tone.
"Nah it's alright" Celestia answers in comfort even though there's still hint of sadness in her voice "I came to your promotion because I saw an opportunity to be a superstar that made it famous, I've been in the business for a long time and I can smell that your corporation would skyrocket ratings."
X accepts the answer "Alright welcome to Girmov I look forward to working with you."
"Me as well, if you'll excuse me" Celestia says kneeling.
X nods and gestures for her to go Celestia leaves through the door and Lady comes in "Next is La Calavera."
The Spanish woman enters wearing her sugar skull mask and takes her seat in front of the boss "Hello welcome to Girmov I'm the founder and CEO Ms. X, what can you get for the company?"
The Spanish luchador grins massively "I can get you not only fans with my performance, I can also start feuds with Maria again after all" she looks towards the eyes of Ms. X "You once approached us back in GWM but we refused and you were furious" X nods in acknowledgement remembering how angry she was that day "It doesn't have to be Maria precisely but I suggest we do it for the time being" her eyes now have a calculative look "And most importantly as a respected high member of the wrestling business I can get you back on air, not only that but also recruit more famous wrestlers with this brand" she smiles as she rests her elbows on X's office "It's not a bad deal, is it?"
X massages her temples and then looks back in the eyes of La "If you this confident in the wrestling business then why didn't you start your own promotion? After all you come from a rich bloodline whom have the ties you spoke of."
La chuckles "This's good it seems you weren't completely mellowed down and still able to see in a business perspective" she continues to smile "I only hated you because of GWM and now seeing you cut ties with them after their loss while excepting said loss unlike them, so to answer your question I think you're a better business woman than me, I'm more of a fighter than a manager and I don't even want to imagine the amount of stress a CEO is feeling, so like I said I'm giving you a good offer I'll bring people to your company, help clear your name much faster and all what I want in return is to sign up part-time."
X had her eyes closed the entire time absorbing the emotions behind La's words and check if there are any lies or ulterior motives, but she found none and it'll be a lot of help to clear their names faster rather than just sit around and do nothing while employee's well demand payment she lets out a sigh and opens her eyes "Very well this's a good offer welcome to Girmov I'm looking forward to working with you" X says while offering a handshake which La excepts.
"Me as well" La says as she breaks the handshake and leaves.
"This's indeed a good offer but we should keep on our guard, right Ms. X?" Lady asks for a confirmation from her boss whom nods her head "Very well, next up is Starla & Isabella."
X nods and team spirit enters taking their seats in front of the office, X drinks a glass of water to rejuvenate her voice after 4 interviews and puts it down after finishing "Hello welcome to Girmov I'm Ms. X founder and CEO, what can you give the company?"
The teenage girls start doing poses while getting up from their seats which fall down from the intensity of getting up, Starla raises her right knee and bent her left arm horizontally in front of her chest while pulling her right arm at her side, while Isabella with her left leg slightly in front of but close with her right, bent and contract her right arm at her side then spreads her right hand in front of her face(Joseph and Cesar pose in battle tendency).
'What's happening they know this's an interview, right?' X thought while her eyes bug out from their sockets.
"We are team spirit" Starla says while taking on a new pose, raising her arms upwards as if they were wings while raising her left leg to the knee level and stands on her right toes.
"Indeed we came here to save your spiritual brand from the clutches of evil corporations and ensure the safety of women's wrestling future" Isabella says while also changing her posse as she got down on knee level and spread her arms horizontally on her shoulders level.
"um…. This's nice and all but I think you got the address wrong, this isn't a movie company" X said sweating bullets from the sheer awkwardness of the situation she's in.
"No we didn't get the address wrong this's indeed Girmov which is threatened by the evil forces of Tigress" Starla says while adopting a new posse as she points her index right finger at X and covers her mouth with her left arm.
"Yes, as long as evil forces are out there threatening this spiritual brand then we can not rest for our blood will not forgive us" Isabella says while changing her pose by getting up and leans backwards pointing her index finger at X and rests her left hand on her hip.
'Are they still in their chuunibyou phase' X thought with a sweat drop and a forceful smile, she picks up the papers and checks their history despite their personalities they are competent being crowned the best tag team of their age and many gyms including Berserk and Miyabi approached them for recruitment but they turned them down saying their not spiritual 'Why am I not surprised' she thought with a sigh "Alright welcome to Girmov I'm looking forward to working with you."
"We as well almighty CEO" they said as they bowed dramatically and backflipped out of the office.
"Alright that was weird" Lady says with a nervous emotion in her voice which X caught on despite her deadpan tone "Next is Kyoko Natsumi."
X nods letting her in and taking her seat "Hello welcome to Girmov I'm Ms. X founder and CEO, what can you give the company?"
Kyoko takes a deep breath "I'm a professional Kabuki actor whom was acting since childhood and I have been practicing wrestling for almost 9 years now."
X nods "I see so will you say your better at the former or the latter?"
"The former."
"I see then why you came?"
"Because of Tigress I'm certain that by beating her I'll be rewarded by either you, the government or sports companies and use that money to save my family business."
"Is your family business in trouble? I remember attending a few times there and I didn't really appreciate it since I was in a foul mode, don't get me wrong their great."
"Yes, thanks and once I save it make sure to come there, and that's why I'm here."
X doesn't like this since it'll be the second coming of Sakura Hagiwara and its already bad enough having one but two will just be play 'in sad "Kyoto have you heard of Sakura Hagiwara?"
"Yes" Kyoto answered determined knowing where X is going with this.
"Good so I'll be giving you the short version, she's a talented idol who thought she can wrestle but surprise just because your good at one thing that brings audience that doesn't mean your good at all of them, I fear you'll be the same."
Kyoto shakes her head "No, I won't I assure you look at my papers" X does as she's told and is rather surprised at what she see's "Yes, I have been wrestling since the start of middle school and I have been both a middle and a high school champion I was also considered one of the best bachelor college wrestlers even though I didn't win titles" Kyoto says with a confident smirk "I was approached by gyms like Berserk and Miyabi and even promoters who wanted me to join NJPW and other promotions but I turned them down since wrestling was just a hobby and acting Kabuki is my job" she looks down in sadness "But now since my family's Kabuki is in danger I'll use everything I have to save it including my hobby in wrestling."
X seems to impressed 'Will it seems it won't be the second coming of the idol girl after all, she got talent but she only see's it as a hobby rather than a profession but now she's backed into a corner and thus would gamble anything' she exhales and look's toward Kyoto in the eyes "Are you sure about this? You can still leave if you have cold feet."
Kyoto shakes her head while having a smirk "I won't back down not now not ever."
"Alright welcome to Girmov I'll be looking forward to working with you" X says while leaning her hand in a handshake which Kyoto excepts.
"Me as well" and she leaves.
"Alright last interview Ca- "Lady was going to say before X cut her off.
"No, we're done tell Carly to go back home."
Before Lady could argue the door is slammed open by a pissed off Carly "You'll interview me mom."
X let's out a sigh "Just leave I'm not allowing you in this business especially with our current problems."
"Will if you need to know I'm already in this business long ago" Carly fires back which gets X of guard.
X shots a serious look towards her estranged daughter "Really?" to which Carly nods, X points to a seat "Sit down now" she ordered which Carly have excepted "When did you become a wrestler? And what happened to soccer?"
Carly nods in acknowledgement of the question "I took up wrestling during middle school and as for soccer I did make a good impression and was even approached by promoters but I turned them down in favour of wrestling" she takes a breather "It wasn't easy but I became the best wrestler in the state and was recognized by NXT I joined them and was considered a good performer and joined WWE proper but I didn't like the way Vinny wanted to do things so I went off script and got fired."
X sighs and shakes her head "You always been arrogant and rude so anyone wouldn't like you in their promotions let alone Vince that man is as bothersome as a never-ending maze made out of cactus."
Carly snorts "You got that right."
X sighs again "Why did you leave soccer? From what I remember, and you told me you had a bright future in it."
"I did it so I can follow you and reconnect with you" Carly answered honestly.
X is taken back "W-w-what?"
"You heard me I did it because we were estranged we were more of strangers than a family and so I tried to follow you by entering GWM which is the only reason I tolerated Vinny as long as I did but this's even better you started your own business" Carly adopts a troll face "And said business is in trouble, so what better way for us to reconnect than me saving your company?"
X sighs and massages her temples 'Well unfortunately she's right and I'm part of or rather the whole reason she got into wrestling, besides I have turned in a new leaf thanks to Haruna and Naoto maybe it's time to mend our relationship' she looks towards her daughter "Well there's no choice welcome to Girmov I look forward to working with you."
Carly raises from her seat with a confident cocky smirk "You won't regret this."
Hinata city
In the suburb peaceful city the beauty of nature glows just like stars and almost all the citizens know each other's, at first glance many people would consider this paradise as the second coming of the garden of Eden but just like that heavenly garden there's a demonic serpent that slithers around.
"Alright one green tea and one Browne coming up" said the waiter being a young tall woman with short brown hair and light brown eyes dressed in a black t-shirt and light brown shorts having an apron on them that has 'Hinata café' written on it as she wrote the order and went to make it, after finishing she got them to the desired table "Thank you for waiting" then the doors of the café were slammed open revealing a biker gang, the woman sighed and gestured to the gang to a back table were they usually sit "Wait for a while to bring the money" she said in a tired tone.
The leader came in front being an above average build man with shoulder length white hair and green eyes dressed in biker clothes and has a shovel in his arms "Good it's really refreshing to see that some people can pay their protection fee's on time" he said with a huge grin in his face.
The woman coughed gaining the leader's attention "So what can I get you guys?"
The leader laughs "The usual we'll be out once we get payed."
'Thank god' thought to herself "Alright I'll be back with both the order and the money so sit tight."
The gang find their seats on their usual reserved table "Will today is mostly great, right boss?" the only female member asks her boss.
"Indeed it is, Haruka Urashima is a loyal client that pay's on time and get us nice coffee along with donuts" the boss answers liking the café, but it seems one member is distracted looking somewhere "Hey Jirobo what are looking at?"
"Boss isn't that the American gaijin that said he didn't have a job?" Jirobo asks while pointing at said person.
The leader follow's the direction of the pointed finger and it's indeed the guy "Alright Jirobo and Kidomaru let's go teach him a lesson, Tayuya and Sakon you collect the money and orders from Haruka."
"Yessir" they answered simultaneously, as the leader along with Jirobo and Kidomaru got up and walked towards the designed location.
Meanwhile in another table a group of males were having their orders taken by a male American waiter having spiky short black hair (think Gut's from Berserk hair), onyx eyes, and a scar across his nose along with a nice muscular build that has tattoo's all over his arms, his right has a skull on the shoulder, his bicep has a chimera (Greek myth), his elbow has the King cards in their Paris pattern along with a red rose and his forearm has a falchion that extends to the hand while his left has a heart on the shoulder with grandma written on it, his bicep has a lamassu(Mesopotamia myth), his elbow has the Jack cards also with Paris pattern and his forearm has a rapier that extends to the hand, and the Queen cards on his chest also in Paris pattern, he's dressed in a red t-shirt along with blue jeans and has an apron on them "Alright I'll be back with your orders just sit tight."
"Alright so these are your orders, did I get anything wrong?" the waiter asks.
"Nope there right" said a young male with fair skin an 'X' shaped scar between his eyes along with three additional scars in the left side of his jaw, he had jet black hair with a right bang covering his eye and was dressed in a grey tank-top with tribal-like markings in the shape of a wolf's head along with a black vest over it and his pants were black and grey with white shoes.
"Yep Derrick Ichiro is right" said another male to the waiter being a pretty tall young man with long spiky dark brown hair that reached to the middle of his shoulder blades, his eyes were amber, his left ear had a notch on it he was dressed in an black tank-top with orange like slashes on the sides and black pants with black and orange shoes. Beneath his shirt are three scars that start on his left chest and go downward diagonally to his mid-section.
"Yeah both Ichiro and Kenji are right" said Yoshi.
"Okay it seems one thing is missing" Derek said getting the groups attention.
"What is it?" Yoshi decides to ask.
"You still refuse to join the Animal squadron's" Derek said which both Ichiro and Kenji nod to, Yoshi sighs ever since his first friend Ichiro took him to his gym he was recognized by the coach Kamogawa Kenji, assistant coach Katsu and manager Yagi with all other members including the ace Hanzo. Ever since then he was approached by his new friends in the gym to join up with them but thankfully most had stopped like Kisuke whom see's him as a weakling and the coach who said that nervous idiots like Yoshi had no place in wrestling but his close friends didn't give him a break.
Before they could continue a voice called "Hey American gaijin" which got Derek off guard and sent chills down his spine as he recognized the voice he turns around and see's the three bikers.
"Hey, Mizuki what's up?" Derek says in a nervous tone "What brings you guys here?"
Mizuki chuckles as rests the iron part of the shovel on Derek's cheek "Will this happens to be our favourite café" he then hardens his look "What are doing here? Dressed like an employee, I remember you told me your out of work but it seems you work here not only that but according to these guys" he points the shovel at the trio "You're a wrestler in the Animal squadron" he rests the iron part of the shovel on Derek's cheek while glaring at the teen "So I'll ask nicely: Derek Newman where's our money?"
A/N: Done this was quiet the chapter if I say so myself, in this chapter we had interviews with the new characters and builded up things for them. Once again thanks to foxboy 614 to allow me to use his characters the ones introduced here Ichiro and Kenji along with mentions of Katsu and Kisuke are his along with the Animal squadron's. I also introduced Derek Newman here an OC by me whom is a high member of the squadron's and hopefully will have a large role in future arcs. Obliviously I don't own the biker gang they are the sound four from Naruto along with Mizuki while Haruka is from Love Hina. I wanted to do more in this chapter, but I decided to do them the next one just for future reference things will get weird just throwing that out there. I'll be taking a page from Kistune no ken by Neon Majestic. Thanks for reading have a nice day.
