●OUT OF CHARACTER● Good luck man, can't wait to read your stuff . PT I of II [as we agreed on a limit]
●NEXT MATCH● vs Artemis Kaiser
●You are who you are, right? A little thing that Tamara Marie Rose learnt last week, indeed the hard way. And although there were no hard feelings between herself and Shawna, she still had to realize one thing. She was not ready. While it was a fact that everyone could beat everyone on any given night, this was not her night. The current mSw Womens Champion, Shawna Martinez, once again showed that she was champion for a reason. It did not matter to her what the rest of the world might thought, it was her own truth. One way or another it was never healthy to remain in the past, especially not when the next show was already ahead of her. Artemis Kaiser. The little monster with the angry attitude and also the sister of none other than Peyton Von Licht. Did anyone ever bother finding out what Von Licht meant? Nope. Well Shawna did and it was really fitting pretty well, as the young boy was exactly that. Light. Someone that was able to set a whole arena on fire, with his talent and of course his attitude. Shame that his sister was so totally different from him, well maybe not totally. She had the talent. She had the spunk. But she definatley was lacking on a very important thing, manners. While having a decent showing previously, she was probably getting a bit too cocky. It was one thing to challenge the champion, but a complete different to back your words up. Now one had to wonder about several things, was Artemis really ready? Was she named after a cat from the Sailor Moon series? And on top of it, how tough are you when you can't fight your wars via Twitter anymore. Tick Tock. Tick Tock. Per il mio bene. For my own good.●

●Per il mio bene●
[official mSw promo]
Did you ever get tired of doing this? In the case of Shawna Martinez the answer was always the same, no. It did not matter how many weeks in a row they would put her on the card, she was willing to go for it. No matter if she was booked as an opener or in the Main Event, a match was a match. Especially when it meant to perform in front of the fans, her fans. She was willing to give her all, every night. Although the opponent was hard to understand, Artemis Kaiser. A young girl with heart and talent, but also a temper problem that did remind her on another person. No names needed. But then again maybe the girls temper was not the worst, what about the ego trip? While the fans would go down and admire her for what she was able to put up in the ring, her attitude screamed miles against the wind. Which only caused Shawna to think that, how sick must it make Artemis when people say the following line: Can't you be a little bit more like your brother? Well babydoll, can you?
Kicking against the machine several times before accepting reality, it was done. Broken. Ruined. The look on Shawna's face was hard to read, but it was easy to see that she was far from being pleased. Right next to her stood none other than Marie Porter, in her typical giggly way. Nothing could ever piss of that girl, thank god for that spirit. She was standing there for several moments letting her new found friend take some time, before raising her voice.
Marie Porter: ''You do realize that you broke it... .''
Shawna Martinez: ''I did not... .''
Marie Porter: ''Yes you did. Shawnzy you are in trouble when Danny finds out... .''
Shawna whirled around looking into the smiling face of Miss Porter, tempted to stick her tongue out. Whenever hanging around that girl, she could not believe how different they were. But somehow it worked. For a moment she though felt sad for Marie, thinking about her upcoming match. Teaming up with the scum called Kat Jones, which brought back bad memories. She did not want that for Marie, or anyone else.
Shawna Martinez: ''You ready for this week? I mean Tag Team action... .''
Marie Porter: ''Of course. I am always ready to fight. Wait for it... .''
Before Marie could do her usual Porter Experience whatever, Shawna was quick to put her hand over the girls mouth. She did not do that to be mean, but at points you had to draw a line. Marie was cute and all, but at points you guessed it right, a bit too much. When the Champion would remove her hand though, there was still a smile covering her lips. Marie indeed had a problem standing still, being all hyper and bubbly.
Marie Porter: ''What about you? Arty... Prince... no wait... .''
Shawna Martinez: ''Artemis Kaiser. The sister of the guy that has a huge crush on you... .''
For a moment it looked like Marie was blushing, but that never happened as a nearby mobile phone rang. Shawna's. With a sorry smile she left her friend behind, picking up the call. Damn it. With all this babbling she had forgotten that there was still an appointment in front of her, a signing at a nearby Music Store. After hanging up she was quick to get her things, about rushing out.- as she noticed the bitter look on Marie's face. Like a sweet, lost puppy outside a shopping mall.
Shawna Martinez: ''WHAT?!''
Marie Porter: ''You did not hug me... but i forgive you and... .''
A moment later Marie was hanging on her like a monkey, squeezing out the love she wanted. Shawna did silently let it happen before shoving her off gentle. Little later she was on her way out, mumbling something like 'For God's sake'. Well you could not choose your friends, oh wait.- you could. But then again life was so much more colourful if you decided to allow all kind of people in it.
30 Minutes later....
It was unbelievable how many people were standing in line, but then again Wrestling was something that reached all different kind of people. Young and old. No matter what race or gender. She had seen a lot of things during her career, but this never failed to amaze her. The door had only been opened a little while ago and it made her lightly nervous to be surrounded by so many strangers. It would never get old, not for her. Of course there were other superstars that did work way better with this kind of fame, taking a bath in the so called spotlight. Well others were not Shawna Martinez, a grounded and down to earth person. Believe it or not.
It felt like she had been sitting here for hours, without ever taking notice of the mSw camera team that was filming this whole scenario. Yeah. Sure they did, it was always good promotion to have the Champion close to the fans. They would slowly come closer, which caused her to look up.
Camera Guy: ''How you feeling today Shawna?''
Shawna Martinez: ''Pretty good, thank you. But you sure this is why Danny sent ya after my ass, apart from the obvious of course. Yeah. I got here in one piece and the Belt is well... .''
A dry laughter came from her end, causing the guy to smile. She was maybe blonde, but not that blonde at the end of the day. While she would still sign pictures and all else, she was well prepared that this was getting taped for Missouri State Wrestling.
Shawna Martinez: ''Spit it out already... .''
Camera Guy: ''They want you to speak about your match at Unstoppable and since you were not willing to get into another interview this week... .''
Shawna Martinez: ''Clever. The old man really knows what he is doing, so yeah for the benefit of him having those massive balls. It is right that i said that already last week, no more Interviews. At least not during this week, as I wanna be able to concentrate on my match. But maybe that is my biggest weakness, I am too nice. Ever did consider that? Not sure if my opponent has any idea what it means to be nice, since she tries to waltz through everything in hardcore style. No big deal seriously, but it left me wondering. So why didn't anyone tell me it was this easy to get what you desire? All you gotta do is flip out via Twitter, threaten the Champion and you get a match? Bravo you little monster. You got what you thought is the thing you desire, we will talk about it again once the match is over. What i find even more funny is the fact that everyone and i mean everyone knows this, I do not have Twitter. Or Facebook. Or Instagram. Or whatever else is existing. So I did not even know that Artemis Kaiser wants to meet me in the ring, so badly. No wait, she mentioned something like she is going to end me... becoming Champion for life,'' A small laughter. ''Favour me though babe, do not start to bite your nails cause you get excited. That is really not looking all too fancy on girls. But we obviously have a problem, you and me. Months before i became Champion I said the same thing, over and over again. If you want something from me, my door is always open. All you gotta do is knock, cause that is the amount of manners I do expect. So why didn't you go down that way? Get in my face, instead of hiding behind social media like a scared little girl?''
For a moment she was pausing to take a picture with a little girl, wearing a Frank Washington shirt. Yeah. Fangirling was awesome, ask every girl about it. When speaking again she could not hide her amusment, or maybe did not see a reason for it.
Shawna Martinez: ''I know what they say about you, how you are rough and tough. Awesome. At least something I can work with, but we gotta make sure that you understand what you have gotten yourself into. You wanted my attention, mia bella? You were so eager for it that you tried it every way possible, well consider me your good Fairy. Cause that wish is granted, you got it all.- maybe more than you wanted. Is that the future you paint for yourself? Pulling a tantrum? Trying to talk down people that can not defend themselves in that very moment, awesome. Not what i expect from someone coming out of the Von Licht family, but then again i only had the pleasure of meeting your brother. Someone that will in time rule this company, someone that has everything you need to be the face of a company. Do you have that potential? Or you only think you got it, cause it got to your mind I might would have been bored this week? Either way Arty, you don't mind calling me that... oh well you probably do but then again life is tough. I am not going to threaten you or lecture about what you should do, cause in life you have to make your own mistakes. But that also means you gotta live with the consequences. My decisions are my own, there is no one in the backround that tells me what to do. What about you? And baby that does not even have to be a real person, can also be a bitter voice in the back of your head. Telling you this, I want what she has. If i do not get it, i am gonna flip out. We can not all be champions, well we maybe could but there is always someone that is just that tiny bit better. I tell you the same that I told Marie, Tamara and whoever else that came for me. I am here. I am ready. And you might be my downfall at the end of all times, but that does not mean it will happen now. And above all this, it does not mean you will have the chance to enjoy it.''
There were still people pressing against her table, while she already felt the effect of being kinda locked in this place. The shop manager stood not too far, all proud and happy. A deep sigh did escape her, while her pen still went over more pictures.
Shawna Martinez: ''So you tell me this Artemis, how does it feel to get one step closer to your goal?''
A soprano like laughter escaped her mouth and for the first time she would look right into the camera. Her pearlwhite teeth smiling only for them, or so it seemed.
Shawna Martinez: ''I assume your answer is easy, fantastic. But then again maybe not, you are do not seem like the excited type of person. I mean look at good ol' Bonecrusher, I am not sure he is back to normal. Well as normal as he can he, of course. Why? You have been awfully rude towards him, scared the big bad man. It will take tons of cookies to get him back to our sphere, seriously. You wanna crash Marie, you wanna crash Me... means you will have a few busy months in front of you. I am not sure if anyone told you about it just yet, but even though we seem like the most friendly girls in the world.- there is a side of us you have not seen yet. Or maybe you have seen it, but i should better say not felt it yet. My petit ange, that will change once the bell rings. I do not need fancy outfits or thousands standing behind me, all I need is myself. You will try to label me, but that is nothing new to me. Shawna the muscle girl, Shawna the tough one, Shawna the bla bla... make sure you find something new. The problem is after a while you have heard it all, so unless you can curse me in three different languages.- you wont find me impressed. And maybe not even then. Cause in the end all that matters is, what happens in that ring. And i got the prove lying here in front of me...,'' She was running her fingers of the title. ''...that I am the damn best at what I do. And that has nothing to do with being cocky, but check back what happened since i entered Missouri State Wrestling. What is that I do better than anyone else.''
The small girl in front of her raised her hand, as if they were inside a classroom. Shawna was raising her brow, nodding into her direction.
Little Girl: ''Kick Ass?''
Shawna Martinez: ''Yeah that too, well done cutie pie. You want it Artemis, you want it so badly that it nearly drives you insane? Well get a ticket, cause we have lost some other females to the insane side already. It is getting lame, seriously. So when they come to you and offer you a spot at the darkside, refuse. Sure they have cookies, but you will not get happy. But in all seriousness, I really look forward to our match. I have seen you in the gym, yeah I was the one that talked with your brother. I also was the one that wondered why you didn't make it to Marie's party, oh wait... you wanted to crash her. That is why. Either way I am sure I will hear from you, and just incase you plan on telling me again that you will end the legacy of Bella Mafia... I got that one already on tape. Heard it. Noted it. Laughed my ass off. I see you Arty and darling... do not forget to smile... my evil LITTLE empress.''
With that she turned completly away from the camera team, putting her attention on the fans again. That was what she came here for. Business was a tricky bitch, but that only applied if you did not know how to handle it.
