Silver, Gold & Green

This was the moment, the one she'd prepared for weeks ago. The AFW Champion on her knees before her, Adrian Kytes' heart was racing as she dashed past the targeted Blonde, hitting the ropes with as much force as she could muster causing the ring to creak as she was sent zooming back. A few spaces in to the return journey the Brunette lifted her left leg up in the air, aiming it to slip past the the Swede's skull while she drilled her knee into the back of her head. A particularly nasty adjustment to the Shining Wizard that no-one would ever see coming, their Last Surprise.


"Wooo!" She let out after landing flat on her back, basking in the warming glow of the AFW gym lights before she twisted around to see the damage dealt, making sure that she hadn't hit Cecilia too hard.

Cecilia had been asked by Adrian to help her out with her training and to help the American try out her new finisher. It was a rather painful job, but Adrian did have plans for it that just demanded the Swede to take a heavy blow to her skull. As usual the Swede was happy that she had a thick skull since that was what most of her opponent liked to target. 

The Swede was down on her knees and Adrian came running right in at her and threw that nasty shining wizard back of her head. Snapping Cecilia down onto the mat with a thud as she was downed by the former hardcore champion. " Uugh!" Cecilia groaned out as she crashed down onto the mat and groaned out. Her head swimming a bit from the blow to her skull. 

The things one does for their best friend....

The rush of adrenaline having passed, Adrian was quick to pull out the Ice pack and a bottle of water as she hoped that she hadn't hit Cecilia too hard in the head but what would be the point of practising moves like that if they were only going to half ass it? She at least knew now that it was good enough to take down the AFW champion... provided she wasn't actively defending herself but still kneeling down... okay it was still in Beta. "You okay Cec?" the brunette asked as she tried to get Cecilia off the canvas "I promise the next time you think of a really painful hold or something you can try it out on me." She offered as she held the water bottle in case the Swede needed the drink.

The various gym goers had been eyeing the events of the practice ring with interest,  it was rare that the Champion graced the rest of the gym with her presence and seeing the painful looking shining wizard was enough to make them all wince all according to keikaku. (Keikaku means Plan) except for one woman. A strange face in the gym who might have been the centre of attention herself if not for Cecilia and Adrian. Standing nearly 6 feet tall and  dressed in a loose jujitsu gi, her white hair was left flowing as she strolled up to the ring with a soft smile on her face as though she hadn't seen an act of intense violence.

Cecilia groaned out as she was helped up to her rear, seated upon the canvas as Adrian then offered her that water bottle. The Swede felt a little bit woozy after that kick to her head. She would take the water bottle and then tried to take a sip off the water. She would shake her head a bit and then listen to Adrian's silly offer.

" I'm fine, though I don't think you really want to offer that Addy..." Cecilia let out as she would shake her head a bit. She would wince out and proceed to rub the back of her skull a bit. " Still. I think that will do just fine." Cecilia let out, she was about to continue talking to Adrian but she was interrupted as she saw the frame of a woman she hadn't seen in ages. A sight that caused the the blond powerhouse to be rather stunned with surprise at the moment and rather dumbfounded.

Adrian was in the middle of trying to figure out just how bad it could be for Adrian to seriously regret making the offer of finisher dummy before her conversation with the Blonde broke off unexpectedly. Panic quickly shot through the former cosplayer's mind as she internally rattled off various worst-case scenarios before venturing a guess as to what was going on. She wasn't drooling, she wasn't clutching her head or trying to blink out a sudden rush of pain... or throwing up... so she was okay, probably. Following her gaze Adrian thought that she was the one who'd taken a blow to the head instead of the champ. Outside of the ring appeared to be what on first glance was a monochrome version of Cecilia smiling at the two, it took a moment for Adrian to process as she scrambled for something more than "Uh... hi?"

"Hello." Came the friendly reply, leaving Adrian thoroughly confused as to what was going on. "I'd introduce myself but I think we'd better let Ceci get over getting hit in the back of the head first."

Cecilia shook her head a bit as she looked up at the busty woman who stepped into the ring. She knew her far too well, but hadn't seen the woman in over...6 years? Probably more, but Cecilia wasn't of 100% sound mind right now to do the math. Having taken a boot to the head and then the shock of seeing her oldest rival was something that simply made the Champion a bit...beyond normal reasoning. 

The Swede would push herself up to her feet and shake her head, stumbling back a bit. " W-what are you doing here, Anna?..." Cecilia let out, here eyes narrowing at her old rival as the Swede hands were at her side, her right hand tightening into a fist. 

Cecilia's mental image had been of herself chasing a future vision of herself, the her of tomorrow that she chased after. The chase itself being what drove the blond powerhouse to grow and become better every day. That idea of how she could be, but back in the day she didn't chase a vision of her future self, she chased the back of the woman who was now in front of her once again. The Swede wasn't exactly sure how to feel about this confrontation, she needed a bit more time to gather herself....as her mind felt scattered.

Anna Silver was quick to put her hands up in front of her in an attempt to calm Cecilia down slightly as her own smile faded slightly. "It's... kind of a long story... about 7 years long at this point but the short of it is that there wasn't another wrestling club after I left so I started learning other martial arts, going to competitions and then when I think about going back to wrestling, I look for the most competitive federation out there and then... I find you're the champion here!" The white haired woman perked out. "So I couldn't really not join, could I? The last person my age to give me a challenge wrestling is the top woman in Japan so I signed up, didn't think I'd see you so quickly after joining though. How've you been all these years?" She continued, as though she didn't see Cecilia's fists tightening as 7 years of history sped across her eyes.

"Uhhh... Am I missing something here?" Adrian asked, trying to step inbetween the two Swedes, looking both to stop any violence (for now) and to get an explanation before she felt completely looked out of the loop.

Cecilia would look on at Anna as the busty woman was talking and explaining what she had been up to, her long story caused Cecilia to tilt her head and grit her teeth. Especially at the woman's final few comments about joining because of AFW being what it and especially cause Cecilia was there. That comment about Cecilia giving her a challenge though caused the Swede to grit her teeth in frustration.

When Adrian spoke up the Swedish blond would turn her attention to her friend. " Ah...this is Anna. She's a bitch that I used to wrestle and scuffle with a lot back in my formative years." Cecilia said as she would soon turn her attention back towards Anna. She didn't really go into any detail about their whole history, about how Anna was probably one of the few people that Cecilia had failed to measure up to, who had managed to beat the Swede in their final match and currently had a superior record between them. There were too many bouts to count but if Cecilia was honest, Anna probably had two wins or so over the People's champion.

"Ooookay then..." Adrian let out as Cecilia turned around in frustration, clearly not happy with one of the few people to beat her ever showing up after seven years of absence. "So uh... I'm Adrian, kind of a big deal here..." the brunette continued as though the situation wasn't completely awkward. Anna however was having none of it.

"Come on Ceci!" She called out "This is the first time we've seen each other since wrestling school and we were there together for years, what's with the cold shoulder? What did I do?"

Cecilia would shrug her shoulders a bit, sure things were awkward around her and Adrian didn't help things out by pointing it out. She would pat Adrian's shoulder and then step up towards Anna. 

Getting right into the face of the woman as she asked why she was giving her the cold shoulder. " Cold shoulder? Please. Just saying out it is. You are a bitch, a tough bitch but a bitch." Cecilia spoke out as she went chest to chest with the busty old rival of hers. " Still, it has been a long time. How have you been? Eating well I see? Had any fun fights?" Cecilia started to speak out mockingly as she was staring Anna down.
