Carrie-Anne Moss as Master Indara THE ACOLYTE | 1.01

[specshroom]

•The Queen of Curses•

Part 1 / Part 2

(Ok So think of this as like a Sukuna wins and everyone dies AU lol. True form! Sukuna. Added the cursed blood bath for no reason. Suggestive, titty stuff but that's it, MDNI, She/her reader, no use of Y/N)

Sukuna didn't rein over the Heian Era alone. It was always him and his lover, burning and slaughtering together. Their love for eachother was well known across the land. People knew not to be fooled by her less intimidating looks (in comparison to her husband) for she was just as brutal and heartless as he. 

All that changed when sorcerers from the era used all they're combined might to seal the Curse Queen inside a small cursed object, formed only from the combined sacrificed corpses of their comrades. 

They knew that the only way to defeat the King and Queen was to separate them and they succeeded. After hearing of the fate of his lover Sukuna flew into a blind rage leading to his own defeat at the hands of the same sorcerers.

One thousand years of relative peace passed with the two lovers separated but still yearning for each other. 

Luckily for the lovers, the ever devoted Uraume never stopped looking for a way to set their masters free. After centuries of searching and begrudgingly accepting a little help from Kenjaku, they finally found the cursed object that their Queen had been trapped in, a simple orb a little bigger than a tennis ball. It made Uraume's stomach turn thinking of such a powerful force being shoved into such a small thing. They carried the black orb with them everywhere while continuing the plot to releasing Sukuna. They found themselves whispering to it, compelled by the obsidian globe. They didn't know if their master could hear but they felt like it was right, like they could almost sense their masters overwhelming aura, compelling them to spill out everything they know. So Uraume spoke to it quite a lot, telling the dark orb and the beast inside about Sukuna's fate, about the new world, about Kenjaku and the plan to free her and her lover. 

The plan that finally comes to fruition. Sukuna is freed, his true form is restored in all its glory and hes wreaked havoc on most of Shibuya just as a warm up.  Uraume kneels before him.

"Master Sukuna."

 They say bowing their head.

 "Hmm?" 

Sukuna hums an acknowledgement, eyeing them with contempt. 

Uraume brings the dark crystal like ball out of their loose robes and holds it up, presenting it to their king. "Now, with your power fully restored we can release the Queen from her containment."

Sukuna stares at the ball in the sorcerers hand and gestures for Uraume to give it to him. He holds it as gently as his colossal hand is able to. It seems to get hotter in his hand, so hot it would surely sear the skin of a mortal. He pears into the orb only seeing his reflection in it, the Curse king nods to Uraume. He places it on the ground and they both step back, arms reaching out towards the orb on the ground.

In unison they both let out powerful blasts of cursed energy aiming right at the cursed seal. Strong streams of power, one white hot and the other pearcing cold, the orb starts to crack emitting a glowing white light. "It's breaking! Don't stop!" Sukuna orders and Uraume grunts but dutifully follows orders. The cracks grow wider and the light shines brighter before it's too blinding and they both cover their eyes as a powerful blast pierces the air.

In the settling dust stands a figure that's all too familiar to the both of them. They both watch as the figure shifts, leaning back and stretching their arms above their head, releasing a groan that is appropriate for someone who hasn't been able to move much in a thousand years. When the woman finally turns to Sukuna she sighs and smiles, letting out a relieved huff. Sukuna grins triumphantly and opens all four of his arms expecting a tide of thankful affection from his lover. When she takes the first few steps towards him her smile starts to waver until it's down to a grimace. Sukuna tenses as her eyes darken. He opens his mouth to ask what's the matter as she walks up to him and-

*SLAP*

Silence envelops the already desolate atmosphere. Sukuna's head is turned to the side, his eyes wide. He blinks before glaring at the offender with a look that could kill. She stares up at him with eyes just as deadly. 

"HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME IN THAT FUCKING BALL FOR SO LONG!!?"

Sukuna stares with his mouth open for a second genuinely shocked into silence until that second is over and he responds with equal vitriol. 

" HUH?! THAT WAS YOUR OWN FAULT WOMEN! DONT BE UNGRATEFUL!" 

The two fiery curses glare at each other with such violent intent, the very air around them heats up. 

"WHAT KIND OF SHITTY HUSBAND ALLOWS HIS OWN WIFE TO GET SEALED!"

"YOU CAN'T BLAME ME FOR THAT! DIDN'T I JUST SET YOU FREE?"

"DONT TAKE ALL THE CREDIT YOU BASTARD! URAUME'S THE ONE WHO-" 

As if the women just remembered that the other sorcerer exists, she turns around and there her loyal subject is, kneeling in her presence. 

" Welcome back master, it's good to see you" 

The woman's face brightens up immediately, "Uraume~" She sings running up to the sorcerer and lifting them into a bone crushing hug that would've killed a lesser being. "Oh, Thank you Uraume. My dutiful subject, you did so good." The Curse Queen coos at the sorcerer, squishing their face into her chest and stroking their duel coloured hair. Uraume doesn't hug back as to be respectful of their superior but they don't push back either, just letting their master man-handle (woman-handle?) them. 

Sukuna clicks his tongue at the show of affection and crosses two of his massive arms over his chest. No doubt in disbelief that HIS wife doesn't embrace HIM first after a thousand years spent apart.

The wife in question turns to him with Uraume still in her arms, an irritated look on her face. 

"What's your problem?" 

"My problem is that MY wife is being an ungrateful bitch." 

The benevolent woman stills and Uraume peers up at her from their place, nestled into the cleavage of her loose fitting kimono. The woman sets Uraume down onto the ground gently. She breathes a heavy sigh and in less that a second she's on Sukuna throwing a mass of red hot cursed energy right into his face. He blocks it in time and is able to keep blocking her continuous fast attacks. She gets frustrated and lets out a powerful blast that shakes the earth and forces him to jump back to avoid the blast.

She laughs with relief, finally being able to let out all that pent up cursed energy feels amazing. Her tattoos (similar to Sukuna's but not quite the same) almost seem to glow with the immense energy output being let off from her body. Only the tattoos on her face, neck and wrists are visible but Sukuna knows very well what the rest looks like, having traced every inch of ink with his fingers.

Sukuna takes the opportunity while she's distracted by the pure euphoria of letting her energy loose and comes barreling towards her, she can't react before he tackles her to the ground. He pins her hands down with two of his hands and another goes to roughly grab her jaw.

"Does it feel good to finally let off some steam, Baby?" 

The king of curses teasingly remarks from above her.

"Baby? That's new." She questions with a teasing grin. Her words are a bit slurred from the way her husband is holding her jaw.

"Might as well get with the times." He bites back with an even more cocksure grin. She scratches and kicks at him and bites at his hand. With all her concentration she channels the sheer amount of pent up cursed energy in her body and lets it burst out in a deafening blast that knocks Sukuna off of her. Static reverberates in the air.

In the few seconds it takes for him to recover she takes the opportunity to pounce on him pinning him to the ground. Grinning from her place above him her heavy breaths and beating heart match his. Her crazy, alert eyes meet four others with the same sentiment.

"I missed you so fucking much." Sukuna says before he pulls her by her robes into a deep kiss. The kiss is somehow aggressive and sensual.

Two of Sukuna's massive hands go to her waist and thigh holding her body to his as he sits up. The third hand is on the floor for balance and the last is tangled in her hair pressing her further into the kiss, as if that's even possible. Both Cursed beings are glad that they don't need to breath or else they surely would have suffocated each other by now. 

The queen of curses has never been more pleased by the fact that her husband doesn't seem to know what a shirt is. Sukuna has voiced many times that he wished his wife shared the same sentiments only for her to scoff at the suggestion, although, now she thinks the idea is one of the best he's ever had.

They fight for dominance with their tongues. Still locked in the passionate sloppy kiss the woman unlatches her hands from his hair to slip off the robes she was wearing over a loose fitting kimono. She unwraps the black accented white Kimono, rather slowly in sukunas opinion to let her breasts fall free to the warm air. 

Sukuna releases his mouth from hers, licking his spit slicked lips to stare down at his beautiful wife's beautiful tits.

"Yeah, remember these are mine. Only mine." Sukuna grumbles lowly before smooshing his face right between them, sighing deeply like a thousand year old itch has finally been scratched.

"Aww, is Ryō a little jealous?" The woman preens in a patronising manner while lightly stroking his fluffy hair.

"Poor baby~" She coos, repeating the pet name he used for her. Her teasing only gets a glare and a growl from the beast of a man currently buried in her tits, holding her impossibly closer to his face.

She chuckles down at him, a loving yet menacing look in her eyes.

"Well maybe I should let Uraume- where did they go?"

She looks around the scorched city landscape looking for her white haired subordinate and as if they heard her words summoning them they appear with a respectful bow.

"I have made the preparations for your bath."

"Thank you, Uraume~"

The woman beams and turns to the man who is still occupied with her tits, he's now picked a tit to suckle on, fondling the other in his rough hand.

"come now Ryo, it's time for our bath." She says curtly and the man groans with his mouth full, absolutely dreading even the idea of his tongue leaving the hardened nipple he's been sucking on. If the two objects poking her ass are any indication if it was up to him they would never get to the blood bath Uraume so kindly set up for them.

She tries standing up and pulling away but the man is latched on tightly, all four arms clutching around her as if they never want to be an inch apart from her again. The more she struggles the bigger the two chubs in his pants grow. She sighs and struggles once more.

"Uraume planned this out very nicely for us, Ryomen. Just do what I say Damnit!"

She pulls at his hair and he bites down on her tit in response, earning a yelp and a harsh smack on the head from her. He laughs, not with the mouth on her tit but with the mouth on his stomach. She peers down at it, as if she just remembered it's there. Without wasting more time she grabs the large tongue crushing it with her grip and tugging on it hard.

Sukuna releases her tit to yell out in pain.

"OW, WOMAN! You should be grateful for every ounce of attention I give you! OW!"

As Sukuna rages, she snorts and jumps out of his now loosened arms. Turning her back to him, she approaches the other sorcerer who's head is still bowed.

"Uraume, would you kindly show me to my bath?"

"Of course, Master"

Uraume stands and bows their head. Holding out their arm for their Queen.

She holds onto Uraume's arm, purposely squishing her still exposed breasts into the sorcerer's side as she smiles down at them.

"I guess we'll have the bath all to ourselves then, Uraume~"

Uraume closes their eyes with a knowing smile and nods in response, very accustomed to the games the two lovers would play with each other, often forcing them right in the middle. Their Queen would often promise that she'd one day make Uraume flustered, something that to this day has yet to occur.

The sorcerer doesn't even flinch at their powerful master fawning over them, stroking their arm and pressing her now marked up tits closer into them as the two walk off towards the bath Uraume prepared.

"HEY!! WHAT THE HELL!?? URAUME!"

Sukuna sits in disbelief at his wife's antics. As if he's only now remembering what a tease she is and has always been.

His wife looks back at him over her shoulder, she shrugs her kimono off her shoulder, exposing her tattooed shoulder to him before turning back to Uraume snickering.

Sukuna huffs and grins, shaking his head. He's so fucking happy to have his wife back.

(AN: I was originally planning to make this smut but... It just got away from me😭😭 sooo... Maybe in a part two? 👀👀)

Tears of Themis and why you should play it

Tears of Themis is a mobile otome game from the company HoYoverse/MiHoYo who brought us the games many know and love: Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, Honkai Impact 3rd and Zenless Zone Zero.

Tears of Themis was released in China in 2020. The game has 4 male leads. The game is a romance game with crime solving elements and is set in the fictional city Stellis in the year 2030. You play as a junior attorney MC who has the code name Rosa (her real name is customisable) and with the MLs you work together to solve crimes and mysteries.

Both the story and characters are extremely well written and it’s a breath of fresh air compared to other otome games. The story is fun, romantic and thrilling. There are times where you will kick your feet in excitement, gripping your phone in suspense and other times where you will shed tears. The game explores multiple romantic genres/tropes and its psychological elements are interesting. It’s a game for both experienced otome players and those who are new to the genre. It is free to play and it’s rather easy to obtain the story cards you want.

The MC is kind, empathetic, stubborn and intelligent, in other words quite likeable. She is a true girlboss.

The first male lead/love interest you met is Artem Wing, a 29 year old senior lawyer and MC’s partner. He is a calm man who works hard towards his goals. The media calls him an emotional less robot, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. With his sometimes awkward demeanour when it comes to his crush (MC) is rather charming.

The second male lead/love interest you met is Luke Pearce, a 24 year old private detective and the owner of an antique shop. He is what one could call a golden retriever with his playful personality and his overprotectiveness over the MC who is his childhood best friend. His enthusiasm is a very likeable trait and it’s easy to get attached to him.

The third male lead/love interest you met is Vyn Richter, the 27 year old famed psychiatrist with two doctor grades and a mysterious past. His intelligence is remarkable and he is a master with his words. Vyn is man of many talents and he is always looking for a way to impress MC. He is rather cunning and has an enigmatic aura which draws you in.

The fourth and last male lead/love interest you met is Marius Von Hagen, the 21 year old heir of a multibillion company and an art student. He is what you may call a playboy with his teasing personality and his charming appearance. He is as all the other love interests extremely intelligent. He loves teasing the MC and it’s hard to say no to his puppy eyes.

The game play

The game consists of a main story with multiple chapters and side stories with the different characters. There are also events.

In order to unlock the different episodes you battle with cards which you can obtain by “pulling”. The SR and SSR cards each have their own stories. The card battles are easy to get the hang of.

So do like our girl Pela and play Tears of Themis<3

Druitt POV

–Week before SummerSlam–

I walked up to the interview area, the buzzing energy of the arena already a familiar hum in my ears. Cathy Kelley was waiting for me, her microphone poised, a professional smile on her face. I stood off to the side, letting her introduce me, then stepped into the bright glare of the camera.

"Rhyan, with SummerSlam just around the corner, what are you looking forward to most?" she asked, her voice bright and engaging.

I smiled, a calculated, confident smirk that I’d perfected over years. But before I could even open my mouth to speak, a sudden, jarring impact slammed into the back of my head. The world tilted, and I stumbled, falling hard to the concrete floor. Pain exploded, but adrenaline quickly followed, sharpening my senses. Punches rained down on me, a flurry of rapid blows, followed by multiple, sharp kicks. I gritted my teeth, reaching out, blindly grabbing a leg. I pulled with all my might, bringing my assailant crashing down. My eyes snapped open, a snarl forming on my lips, to see Zelina, her eyes blazing with a feral intensity.

We traded blows, a chaotic, desperate struggle on the cold floor. Zelina, fueled by pure fury, found an opening. She grabbed me by the shoulders, her grip surprisingly strong, and with a vicious surge, she spun and slung me, shoulder-first, into a heavy production crate. A sharp groan of pain escaped my lips as my right shoulder screamed in protest. Just as I braced myself for more, security swarmed us, pulling us apart, their bodies forming a human barrier between us as we shouted at each other. They quickly escorted me towards the medical room.

After the segment was over, I sat on the examination table in the medical room, the air thick with the antiseptic smell. The trainer, calm and efficient, was gently probing my shoulder. It throbbed, a dull ache that promised a nasty bruise, but nothing felt dislocated. Just as she confirmed it was only a contusion, the door opened, and Josh walked in, his eyes immediately finding mine, concern etched on his face.

I smiled, a genuine one this time, as he approached, leaning down to give me a soft kiss on the forehead. "Hey, main event," I murmured.

"Hey, you good?" he asked, his thumb gently stroking my cheek.

I nodded, glancing at my shoulder, already feeling the beginnings of a deep bruise forming. "Yeah, I'm good, just a bump for storyline purposes." The pain was real, but I could work through it. This was part of the game.

The trainer finished up, carefully wrapping my shoulder with an elastic bandage, securing it tightly. Josh squeezed my hand once more before he had to leave, his own match drawing closer. Moments later, Pearce entered the room, his face a mixture of concern and exasperation. The cameras, of course, were rolling, capturing every beat of the drama.

I quickly snapped back into character, my features hardening into a scowl as Pearce approached. "Pearce," I spat, my voice laced with a cold anger, "if you're not coming in here to tell me that our match at SummerSlam is official, I don't want to hear it."

Pearce sighed, running a hand over his bald head. "Rhyan, you know I just can't do that. You're not even medically cleared, not officially." He gestured vaguely at my wrapped shoulder.

I stood up, closing the distance between us, my face inches from his. "Pearce, I don't give a damn if my arm was pulled out of its socket! I'll fight Zelina either way!" I turned, grabbing my championship title from the table, its weight a comforting, powerful presence in my hand. "Either make it official, or I will!" My voice rose, cutting through the quiet medical room.

I gave him one last defiant look, my eyes narrowing, before spinning on my heel and stalking out of the medical room, the cameras dutifully following. Once the segment was over, Adam walked up to me, a smile replacing his exasperated on-screen persona. "Great job, Rhyan. You're still on for your final segment tonight."

I nodded, acknowledging his words, but my mind was already elsewhere. I just wanted to get to my locker room, to have a moment of peace before the next burst of chaos. Once I was inside, I kicked off my boots and collapsed onto the couch, pulling out my phone. Deciding to call my mother was always a good way to ground myself.

After a few rings, she finally answered, her warm, familiar voice a balm to my frayed nerves. "Hey, baby girl, how are you? You doing okay? I was just watching the show with your brother and his girlfriend."

"Girlfriend?!" I blurted, sitting up straighter. "Since when did Ken get a girlfriend?" My brother was notoriously private about his relationships.

She chuckled a little, a soft, knowing sound. "Oh, they've been dating a few months now. She's a sweet girl, really. You should meet her soon."

A small smile touched my lips. "I'll be home tomorrow for a few days. I can meet her then. But I'm okay. My shoulder is bruised, but I'll be fine." We talked for a few more moments, the comfortable rhythm of our conversation easing the tension in my shoulders. After we hung up, I made sure to call and check in on Jeyce, my voice softening as I spoke to him. With Jeyce checked in on, I slipped my boots back on, heading out to do my final segment for the night.

I paced back and forth in Gorilla, the backstage area a hive of activity, waiting for my cue to go out and interrupt Zelina's promo. I watched the monitor, Zelina's face appearing on the screen, her voice dripping with self-satisfaction. The moment my music hit, a guttural, aggressive beat, I waited a for my cue, letting the anticipation build. Zelina and the rest of the LWO stood in the ring, their eyes fixed on the stage, expecting me to emerge from the main ramp. That was their first mistake.

A stagehand gave me the cue, guiding me through the back of the crowd, the murmuring turning to a roar as I made my way to my designated spot. I quickly scaled the barricade, the cheers from the crowd growing louder, and slid into the ring, a coiled viper striking.

I clocked the back of Zelina’s head with the title, the satisfying thud echoing through the arena as she dropped to the canvas. I didn't give her a moment to recover, immediately raining down a flurry of blows, my anger a raw, primal force. She tried to fight back, a desperate clawing, but I was on her, relentless. Soon, Joaquin Wilde, one of her stablemates, grabbed a hold of me, pulling me off her. I didn't hesitate, sending a sharp, unexpected elbow straight to his face. He yelped, quickly releasing his grip.

I turned towards Zelina, who was being helped up by Cruz Del Toro. She was dazed, struggling to regain her footing. Without a second thought, I jumped over Rey Mysterio, who was trying to intervene, and sent another elbow, this one even harder, straight to Zelina's jaw. Her head snapped back, and she and Cruz quickly rolled out of the ring, Rey scrambling after them, a look of shocked disbelief on his face.

I grabbed the mic, my chest heaving, the adrenaline coursing through my veins. As they retreated backward up the ramp, I screamed, my voice raw and amplified by the speakers, "You want your match at SummerSlam? YOU GOT IT!" The crowd erupted into a deafening roar of cheers, the energy of the arena electric. I brought the mic down, still screaming towards Zelina, holding up my title, its gleaming gold reflecting the arena lights. Zelina, holding her jaw, scowled at me, her eyes burning with a hatred that mirrored my own.

I walked around the ring, visibly fuming, my movements sharp and agitated. "But I don't want no regular match," I yelled, my voice ringing with defiance. "It's me and you... in a No DQ match!"

The crowd's cheers intensified, a tidal wave of sound. Zelina's shocked expression was priceless, her mouth agape. I dropped the mic on the canvas, keeping unwavering eye contact with her as she and the rest of the LWO retreated to the back, their stunned silence a victory in itself.

I grabbed my title, and made my way up the ramp, slapping hands with a few eager fans, their shouts of my name filled my ears. Once I made it backstage, the roar of the crowd fading to a dull murmur, I saw Josh waiting for me by my dressing room, leaning against the wall, a knowing smirk playing on his lips.

"You just love having these dangerous matches, don't you?" he teased, pulling me into a deep, lingering kiss that made my heart flutter.

I smiled against his lips. "They don't call me the Dangerous One for no reason." As I pulled back slightly, my eyes caught Jackie's down the hall. She was watching us, a sour expression on her face. A wave of mischievous pettiness washed over me. I leaned back into Josh, giving him an even longer, more drawn-out kiss, making sure Jackie saw every second. I stifled a low laugh to myself, a small, victorious sound.

"Now what was that for?" Josh quizzed, pulling back, one eyebrow playfully raised.

I smirked, wrapping my arm around his waist as we walked into the locker room. "Oh, nothing." The innocent tone in my voice was completely undermined by the wicked glint in my eye.

Once back in my locker room, he gave me one last quick kiss before heading off, his match being the main event. I quickly changed into a comfortable pair of leggings and a soft sweatshirt, eager to shed the sweaty gear. There was a gentle knock at the door. I opened it to see Jade and Bianca, standing there, their faces a mixture of exhaustion and excitement. I stepped aside, letting them in.

"How are my favorite tag team champions?" I asked, a genuine smile on my face.

Bianca sighed dramatically, collapsing onto the small couch. "Whew, child, tired. Everybody wants to come after us."

I nodded in agreement, leaning against the doorframe. "Tell me about it. Zelina wants her shot, and now she's got it."

"Zoey and Shayna want their shot," Jade added, shaking her head. "But we'll see about that."

We chilled in the room, talking amongst ourselves and watching the rest of the show on the monitor. Josh's match, the main event, was brutal, and hard-hitting, but he pulled out the win. Once it ended, the girls said their goodbyes. Josh and I, tired but satisfied, hit the road back home.

The next afternoon, the scent of my mom's cooking filled the air as I walked into her kitchen, Josh right behind me. Ken was already there, perched on a stool, and next to him, a smiling woman I hadn't met before. She had bright, kind eyes and a nervous but excited energy about her.

"Rhyan, Josh, I’m so happy to see y’all" my mom exclaimed, pulling me into a tight hug. "I hope y'all hungry"

"Always, Mama," he chuckled, heading straight to the kitchen.

"Rhyan, this is Amara," Ken said, a proud smile on his face as he gestured to his girlfriend.

Amara immediately stood up, her cheeks flushing slightly. "It's so good to finally meet you. I'm a huge fan." She practically bounced on the balls of her feet, her eyes wide with admiration.

I couldn't help but grin, the warmth of her genuine excitement a pleasant surprise. "It's great to meet you too, Amara. I appreciate that." We chatted for a few minutes, her fangirling making me laugh, before my mom called us to the table for dinner.

The evening was perfect. We ate, laughed, and caught up, and it was clear Amara fit right in with my chaotic family. Josh, ever the charmer, had everyone laughing. I leaned into him, feeling utterly content.

Later that night, after we'd finally made it back to Josh's place, the house quiet and still around us, we were lying in his bed, tangled in the sheets, just enjoying the comfortable silence. My head was resting on his chest, the faint thrum of his heartbeat a soothing rhythm.

"Baby," he murmured, his fingers gently playing with a strand of my hair. "You remember we talked bout goin' on vacation after SummerSlam?"

I hummed, tilting my head to look up at him. "Yeah, I remember. Somewhere chill, right?"

He grinned, that mischievous glint back in his eyes. "What bout going to the D.R.?"

My eyes widened slightly, a pleasant surprise blooming in my chest. "The Dominican Republic?" I asked, a smile slowly spreading across my face. "Seriously?"

He chuckled softly, tightening his arm around me. "I already booked it. All-inclusive private villa, right on the beach. We leave right after SummerSlam." He leaned down, his lips brushing my ear. "Just you and me. What'chu say?"

I laughed, a warm blush creeping up my neck. "Oh, really now?" I looking up at him slightly, meeting his gaze, a playful challenge in my eyes. "Well, in that case, absolutely yes." I grinned, then pulled him into a deep, lingering kiss. As the kiss deepened, I settled back down, cuddling into his side, already dreaming of the sun and the D.R.

Another filler chapter, I will be updating again tomorrow <3 It's about to get spicy 🤭

[lesmisagain]

so this is my first tumblr post so I’m not quite sure how to format it but I just had to get on here and give props to all of Kyle Adams roles in the US national tour of Les Mis because he truly puts his soul into every character that he plays. I mean obviously his Grantaire is amazing and the way he interacts with every student is phenomenal, but him as major domo and in master of the house is so good as well. I saw the show 4 times in Detroit and once in Lansing and my eyes were on him the entire time due to how much he is in character the whole time, I got the chance to meet him at the stage door and he was so nice and I wish I could express to him just how great of a job he does and how much we all love his Grantiare. Truly the best Grantaire I have ever seen.

(I also have to give Nick Rehbergers Javert and Lindsay Heather Pearces Fantine a shout out because they were absolutely amazing every single time I saw them)

Note: holy shit guys, I know it's been A LONG TIME but I'm 2 weeks away from finishing grad school!!

HELLO?!?! how'd that happen omg I cannot thank y'all enough for the love and support on my works. I love you all so so much. I hope you enjoyed this work and the person who requested it I hope I did it justice!

------------------------------

“Hey, Natasha! Over here!” shouted the familiar voice the moment Phoenix stepped into The Barnyard country bar & grill, flanked by her fellow Navy pilots who joined her on the trip to Nashville, Tennessee following another successful mission. The voice belonged to her best friend since high school, up and coming country music sensation, Y/n L/n. Donning her usually boot cut denim jeans, white tank with a weathered flannel tied around her waist and sparkly boots. Her cream colored Stetson hat topped her head. 

A beaming smile on her face, Natasha embraced Y/n, her hat slightly tipping back causing the woman to reach for it before it fell. “Been a long time, cowgirl.”

“A long time indeed, citygirl,” she laughed, pulling away with a grin. “And I see you brought some friends too. How you doin’ boys--ah!” a squeal ignites when Y/n’s swept off her feet by none other than Rooster. Spinning her around once before setting her back. “Nice to see y’all missed me after all.”

“Are you kidding,” Rooster scoffs, moving aside to allow the others to greet her. “We’ve been counting down the days before you finally decide to move back out west. The Hard Deck ain’t as popping anymore without your shows.”

“Yeah, Y/n, when are you gonna change the mountains back to the beach?” Coyote jokes.

  “I don’t know,” Jake muses, glancing around the packed house, being not so subtle in his checking out of the ladies. “I quite like the scenery.” Fanboy and Payback exchange a look. 

“Yeah. Scenery.”

“Awe y’all too sweet,” Y/n takes the small bag Bob hands her, “What’s this?”

“A little gift from all of us,” he replies, watching with a smile as she removes the tissue paper followed by a growler of Penny’s famous draft beer straight from the Hard Deck. 

“Ah!” she gasps, inspecting the bottle with joy. “You brought me Penny’s IPA?! Y’all don’t know how long I’ve been thinkin’ about this. Ugh! I can already taste it.” 

“Penny and Mav send their helloes,” Payback tells her, “they wanted to come but with the Hard Deck being renovated they unfortunately could not.”

“Oh I understand. I can’t wait to see what the place looks like next time I visit. Penny told me how she’s extending the back patio to have an outdoor bar.” Y/n places the growler back in the bag, moving to hug them all again while saying thanks. “C’mon now, I got y’all a spot up front with some cold ones ready.”

Jake claps his hands, “That’s what I like to hear.”

They follow Y/n and settle down at the large round table next to the stage. It was still a couple hours till the show, and the band had already set up leaving them plenty of time to catch up on all things new while also playing darts since the board was beside the table. 

After a few minutes, Natasha glances around with a curious frown on her face, “Where’s Klein?”

The glass of whiskey in Y/n’s hand pauses mid-air, her smile dropping to something strained, “yeah….he’s not coming tonight. Or ever again.” The table quiets, Mickey, Javy, and Jake stop throwing darts. Licking her lips, Y/n places her glass down, “I meant to tell you on our last phone call the other day, but felt it was better to tell you in person since I know he was your friend too.” 

Klein and Y/n had been together for what felt like forever but really their relationship had been five years. They met in college, became friends and then a couple years after graduation the two decided to pursue a relationship. It was bliss in the beginning. Full of romance and the things one sees in the movies. Yet, once the honeymoon phase wore off a year in, things went sour. Klein went to grad school for business and Y/n started her journey in country music and from there the couple’s problems began. 

They say that when you’re happy and having fun, time flies. But when you’re miserable….it’s dragged out until you’re drained and on the verge of losing it. That was the best description of their relationship. Miserable and dragged out. Both parties were aware they were not going to last and just kept it going for the sake of company and having someone. Leaving them resentful and doing or saying things that hurt the other. 

They barely saw each other with Y/n playing gigs with her band and Klein working long hours at the office. She was becoming a household name in the South and Midwest. Her TikTok where she posted short clips of her shows and songs went viral, followed by reaching three million subscribers on YouTube. Then when Y/n decided to move to San Diego with Natasha for a year, the two fought over the decision and actually broke up for a period of time. A decision that only lasted three weeks. 

They flew out to see each other, facetimed every other day, texted consistently. Tried desperately to make it work. Thinking back to their friendship before dating and how happy they were that first year. But still, they knew it was to no avail and their relationship was crumbling. They accused the other of cheating, they hung up during phone arguments. Klien forgot their anniversary. Y/n missed his birthday.

It was a disaster. And it finally came to a climax a month ago when the two broke things off for good. 

The dagger squad knew Klein, and Natasha knew him even longer having been best friends with Y/n. She supported her friend, and was there as her shoulder to cry on. Though she disapproved of their relationship with how toxic it had gotten, Natasha never interfered unless it got bad. Then again, Y/n resorted to keeping her and Klein’s problems private roughly two years after they started dating. 

“You broke up,” Nat stated for her. Y/n’s face telling her all she needed to know. 

“Yeah,” a nod confirmed for the rest of the table, the singer’s eyes drawn to the half drunk glass of whiskey. “It was inevitable. You know that.”

Nat tightened her lips, falling into the back of her seat with a sigh, “I hoped otherwise. But yes, I had a feeling when you didn’t mention him the past several calls we’ve had.” her voice softened, a wave of sadness for her friend consuming the pilot. 

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I had a lot going on between him moving out and meeting with the producer on my EP.” After reaching five million followers on TikTok and returning to Nashville, a producer from Warner Music Nashville, label for names like Kenny Chesney and the Zac Brown Band, messaged the singer about setting up a meeting. “I lost track of everything else.” 

Nat patted her shoulder, rubbing it softly, “You’ve got nothing to apologize for, Y/n. Breakups are hard and there’s nothing wrong with taking a little time for yourself before having to face the world. I’m just glad you’re telling me now so I can be there for you from here on.” 

“Us,” Rooster corrects with sass, “Thank you for telling us, so that we can be here for you.”

“My bad,” Nat rolls her eyes, but her smile says she’s not really annoyed. “Us. We’re here for you, Y/n, and whether it’s to listen or offer advice, we got your back.”

“Thank you,” Y/n taps her fingers against the glass, her face expressing gratitude. “I really appreciate that and it’s comforting knowing I have you guys,” she meets each of their eyes, “I’ll be fine. I always am when something doesn’t go as planned, but it’ll take some time.”

“Of course,” Nat assures with a smile. “Take all the time you need.”

“I can’t lie though,” Y/n pauses to down the rest of her whiskey, “it’s been a great help with songwriting lately. Been pouring out my feelings into the work like I’m writing a diary.”

Nat raises a brow, intrigued, “well that’s something good to come out of it. When will we get to hear it?” a smirk graces Y/n’s lip, mischief in her eyes. “Sooner than you think.”

“Alright ladies and gents, theys and thems, listen up!” booms the bartender who’s taken the stage the moment the clock struck 9. Everyone’s attention turns to them, the once vibrating chatter of conversations seizing. “It’s my honor to introduce tonight’s entertainment. She’s a local gal on her way to becoming a country music sensation. You might know her from YouTube and TikTok, or seen her performance with Laney Wilson this past spring.” Few people, including the Dagger Squad, begin clapping and cheering. “Give it up for Nashville’s own, Y/n L/n and the Barnyard’s beloved The Barrels!!”

Whistles break out and hollers from every corner of the Barnyard. People snapping photos and ready to video record as Y/n waves to the crowd, walking up the steps to the stage and approaching the mic. The Barrels taking their places by their instruments.

“Howdy folks!” a chorus of “heeeyyyys,” follow the greeting. “How we doin’ tonight?” she waits for the audience to respond, slinging the guitar--her most precious possession--over her shoulder. 

“Thank y’all for coming tonight, it’s always a grand time playing here at The Barnyard, seeing all you fresh and friendly faces. Much thanks and appreciation for the wonderful staff and owners for letting us grace this stage,” raising her whiskey, the crowd follows suit and cheers for the staff. The head bartender/owner sent a salute her way. 

“Thank you to the lovely musicians behind me,” she turns to raise her glass to the band, “The Barrels, who’ve allowed me to join them and be a part of their expedition to this crazy world we’ve sold our soul too.” They all laugh, tipping their beers and glasses to the singer. The crowd whistled. 

Taking a large gulp, Y/n hands the drink to Natasha, and adjusts her guitar. “We’ve put together a great show for you tonight. First a few covers of Country’s best and then some originals I’m honored to share with you after much anticipation.”

“Yeah let’s go,” Jake shouts, clapping with the rest of the daggers. 

“You got this, Y/n!” 

“Show them how it’s done!”

Y/n’s angelic voice carries through the establishment. Singing along to “Ain't in Kansas Anymore,” By Miranda Lambert from the Twisters soundtrack. Followed by “Bless the Broken Road,” by Rascal Flatts. That had Nat and Bob tearing up, as well as Jake though he’s never admitted it. 

They covered “Jesus, Take the Wheel,” by Carrie Underwood, had a few couples slow dance to “Tennessee Whiskey,” by Chris Stapleton, and had the crowd hype to “Man! I feel like a Woman,” by Shania Twain. 

Then they began to perform the songs Y/n had spent countless time and energy writing. Pouring her heart and soul into the words on the paper. The memories surfacing, the smell of grass and liquor. Block parties on a Friday night. Line dancing and barrel racing. Sun beating down and rain pelting from the sky. The love and heartbreak coming together as a symphony. 

“This last song,” she spoke into the mic, having just sang the more upbeat and happy songs for the crowd. Waiting for the right time to introduce the piece she was most anxious about. Y/n wrote it fresh off the breakup following two pints of ice cream and a bottle of Riesling. It took only two hours, and she felt so confident in how raw the lyrics that she hardly made any corrections. 

It was her most intimate song ever. 

“Is a personal one. One that really had me searching into the deep parts of my soul. It’s a song I feel many of you will relate to if you’ve experienced a great love that became a great loss.” Faces in the crowd shift, mirroring her own to signify they understood the meaning behind her words. “Sometimes to move forward in the future, you have to let go of the past. And this song is just that. I hope you like it.”

Silence filled the bar, Y/n taking a deep breath and glancing at Nat, who raised her thumb and mouthed, “You got this.” Exhaling, the woman started strumming, letting the melody flow into the air. 

“Everybody's asking what the hell happened

Wondering why it all went wrong

Mama always said, "If you can't say something nice

Then don't say anything at all"

I've got my side of the story and he's got his side, too

So I ain't gonna go and tell you what he did

But I'll tell you what he didn't do”

Nat perched her elbows onto the table, letting chin drop on her hands as she listened intently to her best friend’s voice. The words cutting deep and letting Nat feel all the emotion Y/n was releasing after keeping it bottled in for so long. 

“Treat me right, put me first, be a man of his word

Stay home 'cause he wanted to

Always fight for my love, hold on tight like it's something

That he couldn't stand to lose

The devil's in the details

I won't tell the hell that he put me through

All I know is in the еnd, it wasn't what he did, no

It was what he didn't do

“I'm already halfway ovеr him and I ain't taking time to turn around

So I'mma take the high road, even though we both know

I could run him out of this town”

Y/n strummed the guitar, keeping her eyes closed the entire time to hold back the tears threatening to escape. The music guided her, a comforting blanket like the hug of a loved one.

“That's just dirty laundry, I don't need to wear the truth

So I ain't gonna tell you everything he did

But I'll tell you what he didn't do

“Treat me right, put me first, be a man of his word

Stay home 'cause he wanted to

Always fight for my love, hold on tight like it's something

That he couldn't stand to lose

The devil's in the details

I won't tell the hell that he put me through

All I know is in the end, it wasn't what he did, no

It was what he didn't do

I ain't met the right one yet, but I know when I do

Coming up to the final verse, Y/n unleashed everything. Belting out the lyrics and giving it everything. The moment signifying not only the end of her and Klein for good, but the beginning of a new era in her life. 

“He'll treat me right, put me first, be a man of his word

Stay home 'cause he wanted to

Always fight for my love, hold on tight like it's something

That he can't stand to lose

The devil's in the details

I won't tell the hell that he put me through

All I know is in the end, it wasn't what he did, no

It was what he didn't do

All I know is in the end, it wasn't what he did, no

It was what he didn't do”

As her fingers brushed over the strings one last time, Y/n opened her eyes right as the crowd exploded into elation. Whistles and hollers at every corner, louder than anything she’d heard before when playing at the bar. Igniting a wide smile on her face and the tears she’d been holding back to finally fall. 

The loudest of course were the dagger squad. The guys all pounding their fists on the table while shouting, Nat jumping up and down with her own face caked in tears. 

“Thank you everyone!” Y/n waved, removing her guitar before embracing the members of the band. “Thank you for having us and we hope to see you next Friday! Be on the lookout for our debut EP dropping Christmas Day!” The audience released another wave of loud cheers, excited by the news. The owner saluted Y/n again when she threw up a two-finger salute of her own. A moment later, a staff member was bringing over a bottle of Whiskey and glasses to the table, “Courtesy of the owner.” 

“I’d like to propose a toast,” Rooster held up his glass after pouring everyone theirs. They all stood, Natasha’s arm around Y/n’s and Mickey on the singer's other side. “To friendship. You clowns are by far the most annoying assholes I’ve ever met, but there’s no one else on this goddamn planet I trust more with my life. You’re more than friends, you’re family and I know like the wingman you are in the sky, you’ll always have my back.” 

“Here, here!” the table echoes. But none raise the glasses to their lips yet as Rooster continues, “And to Y/n, our darling, country belle, you’re going grab the industry by the balls and make it your bitch,” the two women break into belly laughs, nearly spilling the alcohol on each other. Y/n tips her glass with a look reading, “You know it, baby.” 

“Best wishes and good luck to you on this next chapter in life. You are going to do wonders in the world, and we are all honored to be here to witness it unfold. We love you, darlin’.”

“Here, here!!” 

“I love you guys so much!!” she shouts in unison with the clinking of the glasses. Throwing back the whiskey in one gulp. 

Y/n may have lost a piece of herself in the many years spent with Klien. The endless hours of crying, wondering where it all went wrong. Anxiety piling up like a volcano just waiting to explode so the steaming lava flowed out. The years with Klein were an integral part of her 20s going into 30s. And he was a constant figure in many milestones she achieved. 

Mourning the end of their relationship was not only the loss of a lover, but also a friend. 

But Y/n looked forward to the next chapter in her life. Knowing she wasn’t alone in her endeavors, there was the ever lasting support of her friends and family. Visible by the group of naval pilots surrounding the table. Her career looked promising, an EP done and about to release. The power of social media gifting her opportunities she’d dreamed of years ago. 

As the whiskey flowed and the jukebox played, “Mississippi Girl,” by Faith Hill, Y/n leaned into the warmth of her best friend Natasha. Ready to barrel race her way to the top of the Country music charts.

Master Notes:

Decent capture of this show. Whenever Terry Mann is on stage it's a fancam. The first 20 minutes are completely blindly filmed so i defaulted to wideshotting most of it. Due to usher activity a lot of the show is shot this way, whenever he left i could zoom and such, second big issue with this video is the obstruction. The people in front of me never stopped moving and they kept getting into my shot constantly so there is a lot of obstruction that i try my absolute best to avoid.Some washout, shakiness and readjusting throughout.

✩ ‧₊˚ ✩𝐬𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬 ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

✧·˚feat: kayson mayer, jonah, xanthus claiborne, andrew marston, issac rhoades, elias, zaros athat'lin, luca pearce, rowan

✧·˚summary: this is basically just my headcanons of what kind of music each character listens to and their favorite albums since saku only really listens to soundtracks and can’t really tell what they would like (that is a joke btw i know you also listen to some kpop)

✧·˚a/n: music is a very important thing to me so i hope i did everyone justice and feel free to add your opinions as well!

kayson mayer ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

you never walk alone - bts . fine line - harry styles . hard to imagine the neighborhood ever changing - the neighborhood

okay hear me out, i definitely think kayson would be a kpop fan, not like a kpop stan more of a “i enjoy their music” more than anything. i feel like kayson isn’t huge on music but he love the slower stuff when he’s not at practice or trying to get pumped up for volleyball. he seems to have more of a moody taste in music in contrast to his more up beat personality, but i mean we all gotta cry over something.

jonah ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

HIT ME HARD AND SOFT - billie eilish . currents - tame impala . brat - charli xcx

this bitch definitely loves billie eilish. only man i know that definitely cries to ‘what was i made for?’ besides kayson maybe. he fucks heavy with tame impala, but not in the master manipulator why that other man fuck with it. he loves having them on in the background of streams mostly. hyper pop king, loves charli xcx and he is having a brat summer. he is definitely on tiktok so much and is very much influenced by what’s trending on the app.

xanthus claiborne ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT - taylor swift . firebird suite - igor stravinsky . preacher’s daughter - ethel cain

LISTEN OKAY xanthus is the kind to never admit that he would listen to taylor swift but god damn it he loves her new album and her slower stuff she is his guilty pleasure artist for sure. okay he loves classical music but like classical music don’t really have ‘albums’ per say so i chose his favorite piece. firebird suite is something that he has adored the story that is told through the music, same with ethel cain’s preachers daughter. he loves how the music is telling a story more than anything.

andrew marston ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

something to give each other - troye sivan . being funny in a foreign language - the 1975 . harry styles - harry styles

do you feel the rush andrew? sorry. i think honestly he has always loved troye sivan, might be the repressed gay in him but who knows. a full really fond of being funny in a foreign language, loves how raw the whole album is and enjoys the slower ballads. loves the debut album of harry styles, it’s just so soft and sweet he really likes listening to it.

issac rhoades ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

cry - cigarettes after sex . laurel hell - mitski . did you know that there’s a tunnel under ocean blvd - lana del ray

bro is depressed. like i don’t know what you were expecting with him. he knows that most of the songs on the cry album are very sad but some are very sweet and he like the mix of the two. mommy issues up the wazoo so of course he listens to mitski. lana del ray is new and a bit more positive of a listen, it’s almost like someone special came into his life and change the outlook of it a bit.

elias ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

who really cares - tv girl . star boy - the weeknd . positions - ariana grande

something about this tv girl album just screams elias to me and i think he would really enjoy this album the most out of the others. of course he loves the weeknd just look at him, he is a starboy and a party monster on the weekends. this bitch loves ariana grande’s positions album so much he created a stan twitter just to defend it against the haters.

zaros athat'lin ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

the rise and fall of a midwest princess - chappell roan . MEGAN - megan thee stallion . GUTS (spilled) - olivia rodrigo

was it casual when you fought my claim? he loves chappell roan and will definitely tell you he listened to her before she blew up which in his defense he did but he doesn’t need to keep telling people that. loves megan thee stallion her new album is what he listens too before he insults the fuck outta earis. loves the range of emotions he feels when listening to olivia rodrigo, i’m convinced he’s just a teenage girl.

luca pearce ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

songs - adrianne lenker . teenage dream - katy perry . MAP OF THE SOUL : PERSONA - bts

soft baby child loves soft songs that can put his ass to sleep in less than fifteen minutes. katy perry is his favorite, teenage dream got him through college and continues to make him romanticize the crap out of his relationship, as he should! he loves kpop, i just feel it in my bones that he loves persona and how happy the album is.

rowan ✧·˚ ༘ * ༄

favorite albums:

louder than bombs - the smiths . AM - arctic monkeys . the game - queen

he loves music that you could find in an old vinyl record store and these albums capture his taste perfectly in my opinion. a bit of indie here and alt rock there and you’ve got a rowan playlist that he will put on anytime he drives you anywhere.

MTA OC WARDROBE:

Pearce – Virtual Adept

Before the general data I'll explain more about the clothes my man here usually wears – This ended being longer than expected so is a presentation as well.

BTW, someone asked me the Mage the ascension ways. I'm aware of your question, and I'm working on the answer, but please be patient because Mage is a complex game and I want to give you and everyone who want to play Mage a good explanation. Now, lets gooo!

Tradition: Virtual Adept

Rank: Master

Areté: 5

Favorite magik sphere: Correspondence/Data

About Pearce:

He is a computer engineer and a hacker technomage that focusses on getting information for other Mages and sometimes for other supernatural clients if he thinks they won't cause trouble and have good intentions.

He spend most of his time in the attic of the house the Virtual Adepts and the Society of Ether share in the great Shelter because he has his setting there and he can connect with other Virtual Adepts online.

Sometimes he has to go outside to obtain information and, in specific situations he even has to fight Pentex guards so he is trained and carries equipment for melee and range combat.

He loves riding his motorbike btw.

About his clothing:

From top right to bottom left we have:

1.- The electronic maks he uses, with it he can see more elements like night vision, electronic connections, comunicate, record and is a good helmet for the motorbike, he wears the same base and changes the front masks usually.

2.- The techwear clothes he wears when he has an infiltration mission that requiere brute force, usually to Pentex industries.

3.- Stealth sneakers to infiltrate.

4.- When he goes to a more casual mission where the previous clothes can call attention, he wears dark but common clothes so people thinks is just another random person.

5.- Pearce wearing one of his electronic masks 😄

6.- He always wears a mask to hide his face, he also has the Arcane background so people usually don't remember him. His hairstyle is pretty similar too so the group think he looks like Chisaki.

7.- He also wears anti AI clothes so cameras fail when trying to identify him.

8.- When at home he wears the most comfortable clothes possible (which is like 90% of the time).

9.- Yep, he is a system engineer after all, so he wears a protogen mask when he is alone at home. The characters haven't seen him wearing it but I told the players and now they want to see him wearing it so maybe soon?

I'm tagging @golcorneta because we all want them uploading more content e-e

And @sweetened-condensed-rage because the Mage bingos were a cool interaction, thank you for that idea 😄

Story Master List

Druitt POV

*Week before the Royal Rumble*

Tonight I didn't have any matches, but I did have a contract signing segment with Liv later.

Tonight I let Jade and Bi dress me, and I must say they did a pretty good job.

(Minus the purse)

For hair I just had my hair in a neat ponytail with a natural glam. (like picture above)

After I was done I went to gorilla just as I heard Liv's music phase out and my song started to play.

I walked keeping eye contacting with Liv the entire time, smirking as I got in the ring. I looked at Pearce and the influx of security that was around the ring.

Pearce raised the mic to his mouth "Ladies, lets keep this contract signing for your match at Royal Rumble at a civil level" he held out the contract with a pen and slid it in front of me.

I picked up the mic and looked at Liv "Liv, this is your last chance. Cause once you sign this contract, you are signing away your life, so are you sure you want to do this?"

She smiled at me as she raised up her mic "awe what is it Rhyan? are you scared that I could take your title from you?" she leaned forward a little "or are you scared because you know that I am way better than you"

"You see Liv, I am not afraid of anything, especially you" I laid the title on the table and leaned forward myself "I am not the one who snuck somebody from behind instead of facing me dead on, cause you know you can't beat me one on one"

Her face held a scowl as I leaned back and smiled I took the contract and signed it, and Pearce passed it to Liv and she signed it "Rhyan, next Saturday I will take everything you love, starting with taking that title, then sending you back to .... Main Event where you belong " she started laughing as I was now scowling at her. "and all you can do .... is watch me"

I stood up and act like I was about to exit the ring, when I quickly dropped the title and turn and launched myself over the table at her. Once I had her in my grip I started throwing jabs any and every where I could.

Before she could even get the upper hand security had separated us. I smiled as Liv was trying to fight through security to get to me, so I blew her a kiss as I was handed my title and walked through gorilla.

*Royal Rumble Day*

It was finally Royal Rumble day and the anticipation was rising. I was in the back as I was completely ready for the night.

I was watching the monitor in the back as the Women Royal Rumble was set to start. Bianca and Jade was watching with me in the back.

As Samantha was announcing the start of the match, Natalya made her entrance.

I went over to Bi and Jade "who is going to be number 2?"

Bianca shrugged her shoulders "I have no idea, they said it was a surprise entrant"

As soon as she said that the lights cut out, lasers started going, and that familiar song started to play. I didn't have to look over at Bi and Jade to know that they had the same look of shock as me.

"She didn't tell me she was going to be here!" I was shocked as I watch Trinity make her surprise return back to WWE. She smiled as I could see the emotions run through her as the WWE universe welcomed her back with a standing ovation.

I continued to watch the match, as Bi and Jade both made their way out at their call time.

*1 hour later*

It was the end of the rumble, and Bayley was celebrating her huge win. With my match being next, I made my way towards gorilla, where I saw Trin talking with Bi and Jade.

"Now do we need to fight now or later" I said as I walked up to the group.

"How about never and give me a hug" she pulled me into a hug as I hugged her tighter.

"Does this mean that you're back?" I pulled back looking at her.

"yes I am back!" We all cheered as we pulled her into a group hug. Then when Bayley walked out we congratulated her.

"Congrats Pam! Maybe we will meet at WrestleMania"

"Maybe we will, I love working with you" I smiled as I said bye to the girls and went into gorilla, getting into the zone.

Once my music hit I got into character, coming out to a bunch more cheers than boos tonight. Liv was already in the ring waiting on me, and we kept eye contact the entire time.

Soon as the bell rang, we started going for blood.

I got the upper hand and swung her into the turnbuckle, stunning her a bit as I ran and landed a big boot to the side of her face and she dropped.

I quickly dropped with her and the ref started the count.

1..

2..

And a kick out right before 3. I pulled her up and as I did she quickly sent a few blows to my head and one to my mid section making me bend over and caught me with a DDT.

She quickly pinned me as I laid there

1..

2..

I kicked out right before 3, cradling my mid section. I saw Liv quickly roll out the ring and grabbed an item. Whatever she grabbed made the crowd get hyped.

I leaned up, and as soon as I did I felt the impact of the chair on my back.

"Ah!" I fell over and Liv kept hitting me over and over again. I finally built enough strength and took my leg and swept it under her to make her fall to the mat.

*15 minutes later*

Liv laid out on the outside of the ring. I rolled on the outside and went under the ring, and grabbed a table and the crowd cheered even louder.

I set up the table and went to grab Liv. Before I could pick her up she swung me right into the post, then right into the ring.

I leaned up and grabbed the ropes and as I turned Liv hit me with obLIVion and went for the pin, but I kicked out at 2.

She got up to get on the top rope which gave me time to recover. I moved out the way as Liv dived at me and she rolled. I decided to pay a little subtle tribute to the twins and as Liv turned towards me I sent a super kick to her, dropping her.

I quickly picked her up and sent her through the table on the outside, the crowd on their feet cheering "THIS IS AWESOME"

I grabbed Liv and threw her back in the ring. I went for the 3 count, quickly getting it.

I smiled as the ref handed me my title and I celebrated on the top rope as Liv walked to the back.

*Few moments later*

It was finally time to for the men's royal rumble match. The twins will start as this will begin their feud for WrestleMania.

Currently I was in my dressing room, dressed in a two-piece travel set while Jey was finishing wrapping his hand.

I walked over finishing for him and made sure his gear was together.

"Good luck out there, remember that tonight you are making history" I looked into his eyes as he leaned down for a quick kiss.

"thank you ma, after tonight we deserve a vacation" I nodded in agreement.

"We definitely do" soon a knock came to the door and it was time for Jey to go. We did our handshake before he left, soon Trin came and joined me as we sat and enjoyed the rest of the show together.

The whole match had us on the edge of our seats, it ending with Cody winning.

After the night, we all gathered our things and decided to just hang out in Jey's and I hotel room for the night. We ended up ordering pizza and watching a movie until we all fell asleep.
