"You know, I don't think "humble" even begins to describe the beginnings..."
Her words are what opened the scene. The camera flares to life, with Crymson sitting on her bench in the locker room. She's taping her wrists, preparing to fasten her wrist bands.
"My start? Yeah, everyone's heard the story. Broken, young girl... stranded in the streets with no idea how to feed herself. Where her next meal would be stolen from. How much longer she could live this life. A picked pocket gave me the money to catch a bus, following hot on the trail of an old flyer I had seen. A chance to make it big, to be a star. By fighting. What I had done every day of my life until then, from the time that I was fifteen. Over two years... fending for myself in the streets.
Then, it happened. I did make it big. I did make the money to sustain myself. To not have to fight, beg, steal... It all, however... came at a price. Lessien Melwasul... my first "performance review." My first dark chapter in what was becoming a storybook tale. Granted, I was hardly the part of Alice in that "Wonder-land..." but it was my first encounter with the Red Queen."
She chops her wrist into the palm of her other hand, hearing the satisfying "Thwack!".
"Blood was spilt. Injuries occurred. Violence was a livelihood... only for then? For it to seemingly be all gone. For me to not have to care about it. Granted, we did have a future run in, but for what? A few matches? Nothing more, while I was away from my former home. But now...
Now I have a new home. And now, once again, we have the same roof over our head. Only now, we know that it just can't be big enough for the two of us, Lessien. Say that I've done all of this work... I've only put you right where I've wanted you as much as I've moved into the position that you've wanted me. I don't want you to disappear fast, disappear distracted. No, I want your full attention. I want 100% of Lessien Melwasul. I want to beat it down, batter it, pin it, and watch as she makes her final walk up the ramp, and out of my life. And then? Then, Jennifer Drew.... I'm going to take your championship. And I'm going to carry it to the final hours of GCW, doing what nobody else in that locker room seems to be able to do. Beat you for your championship.
This is more than my comeback. This is my final hours, that I can cement my own legacy in. I'm bound and determined, and I guarantee you both, Lessien and Jennifer... Twilight will be far more than name-appropriate for the financial unraveling of this company. Twilight will indeed set in, on your career and your title reign!"
The final words are spoken from Crymson as she makes her vows. The time draws near for her to put Lessien out of her misery, to follow through and win the Top Debutante Championship.
And she could never be more ready...
