Adrian Kytes Vs. Taylor Parker: Contract Signing!

"Come on, we both agreed that your not my type." Adrian responded as she scribbled down her signature on the dotted line. No mess, no fuss, rare for an in-ring contract signing to go so peacefully.

Lukretia watched the girls both sign and then tilted her head. "I vill make preparations for ze obstacle course. I assure you it vill be quite excellent. In ze mean time, ready yourselves for some arm wrestling, ladies. I am quite looking forvard to it. Und, for now, I think zat I vill keep ze prize a secret. It vill give you something to think about. Guten Abend."

Lukretia reached down and closed the binder and tucked it under her arm. Her music began to play and she left the two alone as Mercy walked behind her dutifully.

"See ya, Mercy." Taylor watched the two corporate types leave, and then directed her attention at Adrian. "So arm wrestling, an obstacle course, and boxing, and then a match. I get to kick your ass at all kinds of stuff!" She laughed.

She rose from her seat and turned a slow, neat cartwheel toward the ropes. She sat down on the middle one, and pried the top rope up onto her shoulder. "After you, Hotshot."

"Yeah yeah, keep laughing." Adrian shot back at Taylor as the blonde laughed her off "Makes it all the better when I beat you. In everything." the former cosplayer boasted as she stepped away from the table, breathing in a sigh of relief as Lukretia finally left without placing down another trap or devious bombshell or something that she was probably plotting, she was gone and Adrian could breathe easy for now, even with Taylor showing off. Well, maybe because Taylor was showing off, it encouraged her to do the same.

Eschewing the propped open ropes, Adrian went for a spot a little further down, close to one of the corners, gripped the top rope and with a pull and a leap, launched herself over the top, landing both feet on the floor. It was all she could do to resist saying a little "Ta-da"

Taylor stayed seated on the rope while she watched Adrian's display, and only stood at the end as if shocked and amazed by Adrian's dramatic landing. She put a hand over her mouth and looked around at the crowd, and pointed down at Adrian as if to ask "did you see that?"

Then she held up a finger to get everyone's attention. She limbered up and wiped her feet on the mat, and then approached the ropes in a half crouch. Slowly, she lowered herself down until she was on her hands and knees, and stepped one leg over the bottom rope, then one hand. She crawled onto the ring apron and stood up to receive applause, but again she raised a finger. There was more!

She bent down and put her hands on the apron, like a toddler, and then knelt down and carefully, like she was testing how deep water was, put one leg down on the floor, and then the other. She breathed an exaggerated sigh of relief and wiped imaginary sweat off her brow, and then threw her arms up in the air and pranced around in a ridiculous, over-the-top celebration of her incredible feat.

She stomped around in a circle until she was facing Adrian again, and then pointed both index fingers straight at the girl. With an intense look on her face, she slowly drew her thumb across her throat, and then flicked her fingers at the floor.

Imaginary blood. Gross. She reached for Adrian to wipe it on her.

Adrian added to Taylor's over-dramatic exit from the ring with some sarcastic clapping. "Hooray! You managed to make yourself look only 70% like an idiot, keep working and maybe it'll be down to 65% by the time we fight." she said before brushing the blonde's attempt to wipe her hand off on her, unfazed by the melodramatic throat-slit mime. "See you in the ring, don't break your wrist doing... whatever it is you do in your spare time other than Johnny." she said, and with that she was off. Things to do, places to be , like the gym: while she had managed to keep a straight face throughout she would really need a boot-camp level fitness drive for the challenges. She'd left the obstacle course up to Lukretia, so she had to prepare for the worst possible thing that the German could come up with, and that was a scary prospect.

"Then you'll only be sixty-five percent humiliated when I beat you!" Taylor said cheerfully.

She just couldn't understand why people liked to talk about her having sex with Johnny like it was a bad thing. Oh yeah? Well you have sex with your husband! Fuckin' right, she did. And?

She put her pockets and casually strolled back up the entrance ramp while Adrian more briskly made her exit. "Hey!" She called after her. "Who are you gonna get to help you train for this one! 'Cause, like, I'm gonna be busy, so..."

She watched Adrian disappear, and then took time to visit with the fans on her way out. She stood at the barricade and asked a group who they thought was going to win, and got a mix of answers. She insisted that they feel her bicep, and then laughed with them and shook hands and high fived her way out of the arena.
