Scene 1
Off Camera
==========
It is still
bright and sunny outside as the red headed Angelica Jones makes her way up the
steps and up to the front doors of Our Lady of the Annunciation Catholic Church
in Boston, Massachusetts. This is Angelica’s
home church. The place she was raised
and the place she has always gone to for spiritual support in her time of
need. In this case her spiritual has to
do with an emotional tug-of-war that is going on deep down within her very
soul. A tug-of-war that involves the
people she cares for the most: her family.
Marie
Annabelle Jones, her eldest child, joined Angelica among the ranks of Silas
World by signing with Silas Mason. The
infamous agent made Marie his “crown jewel” in IWC and, to date, Marie has had
quite a lot of success as a member of Silas World, winning multiple tag team
championships, becoming a world champion in GCW, and becoming number one
contender to the world title in IWC. One
might think that this kind of success for the Jones family would bring about
happiness and joy.
Unfortunately
there is Angelica’s other child, the younger Jessica Lasiewicz, who has a
vastly different opinion of what Silas World is all about. Young Lasiewicz is convinced that, at the end
of the day, not only do the two Jones women not need Silas Mason in order to be
successful, but having him as their manger will prove ultimately fatal to their
career. Jessica, therefore, has recently
joined the ranks of Supreme Championship Wrestling with the intent of trying to
convince them to leave.
Angelica
knows that her daughter means well, but she also knows Jessica is picking a
fight with some very bad people. She
also knows that Marie will not take kindly to Jessica’s threatening words. Finally, Angelica knows that if push were to
ever come to shove, that if she had to choose to protect Silas or defend
Jessica, that she would defend Jessica each and every time.
Jones hopes
that it will not come to that but knowing that it is a distinct possibility if
not an inevitability is something she does not want to think about. Yet she knows that she has to confront it
eventually and, when she has to deal with tough situations like this, she
always goes back to her roots…
….church.
The
religious life defined Angelica’s entire teenage life. At the age of thirteen her mother was
brutally raped and murdered. Angelica’s
father felt that he was unable to safely protect and raise both of his children
so he abandoned them. Angelica ended up
in a Catholic Parochial School and later a convent where she became a nun. This was before she began her training to
become a professional wrestler and few people know about that part of her
history. But it is a past she has always
held onto deeply, a spiritual part of herself that she always turns to in times
of need.
This is what
brings her here today to the front doors of her home church, dressed nicely in
a black maxi skirt, black high heeled pumps, and a red long sleeved
sweater. Her long red hair is left to
hang unrestrained to shoulder length.
Jones pulls
the doors open and steps inside into the narthex where she immediately sees the
vestibule, a large, standing font or pool used to perform the sacrament of
Baptism. Smaller, wall-mounted holy
water fonts are found near the interior church doors. Angelica approaches the doors, touches the
holy water with her fingers, and makes the sign of the cross before entering
the church sanctuary itself. The sanctuary
is carpeted with red carpeting. Two
columns of pews are on either side of Jones as she looks down a long center
aisle that leads up to the front of the church, the altar. The altar and the pews are separated by a
rail where worshipers may kneel if they so choose. The altar itself is just behind the rail, as
is a crucifix which is mounted on the wall.
Finally a pulpit is to the left.
But Angelica
has no plans to go up front. She turns
to the right and walks over to find the confessional booths. She steps inside, pulling the door shut
behind her. She kneels down.
“O my God, I am heartily sorry for having
offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishments, but
most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art all-good and deserving of
all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to sin no more and
to avoid the near occasions of sin.”
Angelica
sighs and waits upon a response.
“When was your last confession?”
The priest,
on the other side of the screen, says in what sounds like a deep southern Texas
drawl, very unusual for a Massachusetts parish.
Angelica laughs uneasily before responding. She knows that she has not been a very good
Catholic. Heck, she hasn’t been a
Catholic period for quite awhile. She
only recently returned to the Church after a few years away when the news of
her bisexual tendencies broke out.
“Over a year at least…I guess that’s one of
my sins right of the bat, eh Father?”
She awaits a
good scolding from the priest but, much to her surprise, she hears…laughter?
“Well hell, Baby Red, me and Baby Brown did
some Grad- A sinning worse than that every damn night!”
Angelica
damn near jumps up to her feet and backs against the wall. “Silas?!”
“Father Silas, Baby Red.” He chuckles. “Decided the whole rasslin’ thing wasn’t
worth it and became a man of the cloth instead.”
“Um, that’s nice, but…” she rubs her
eyes “…is this, um, real?”
“I dunno but I did see a flying pink
elephant on my way here. Blasted thing
kept taken a crap on my new lexus so I took my bazooka and blew its fucking
brains out.”
“Flying elephant? Bazooka?”
“Yeah, bazooka. I bought it with the bonus
the diocese gave me.”
Angelica
shudders. “Maybe I should go…”
Angelica
throws the door open and steps out of the booth but Silas follows her. “Naw, stay a little longer. At least tell me yer sins so I can absolve ya
and all that happy horseshit.”
“I had better not…” she tries to leave
but he places a hand on her arm to hold her still.
“Uh Uh,” he shakes his head “not ‘till I absolve ya of yer sins, and I
think I know what they are anyway.”
Angelica
frowns. “You do?”
“Damn right.” He holds up one finger. “For starters, ya never did finish off the
snitchin’ cowboy Merrick Wiseman.”
The red-head
breathes a slight sigh of relief. She
thought he was going to bring up Jessica Lasiewicz and her war on The World.
“I thought he would have learned his lesson
after I damn near ended his career at the tail end of the Shot of Adrenaline
Tournament.”
Father Silas
shakes his head. “Well ya didn’t, Baby
Red, but lucky for ol’ Father Silas ya got another chance to put that Lone
Ranger Wannabe in the ground.”
Angelica
nods her head. “I will do my best,
Father, now if you’ll excuse me…”
She tries to
get away again but again he holds onto her tightly. “Not done! Ya still got one
other sin to deal with.”
“Another?”
“Yeah, Selena Frost.”
Angelica
grits her teeth. “Please don’t mention
her.”
“I know, I know, I’m sicka her too, which is
why I was disappointed that ya didn’t finish her at Retribution…or that ya and
tha other Baby Red didn’t work with Baby Wonderful to finish off that Frozen
Reject Bitch.”
“Yeah, well, I’ll remedy that…”
“Ya better.
Cause I don’t want just a win.
No. I want ya to rip her head off
and feed it to Mary Lee the shark off the coast of North Carolina.”
Angelica
blinks curiously a few times. “Huh?”
“Ya heard me, Baby Red. I want her tapping out and then fed to a
fuckin’ shark.”
“Right…shark…I’ll get right on that.”
“Now then…” Father Silas reaches into
his priestly robe and pulls out a bottle of Dos Equis. “Let’s bless ya…”
He pours the
entire bottle over Angelica’s head. “In
tha name of Baby Spice, Baby Face, and…why the hell not…and Baby Cat!”
Just then
heaven opens up and a voice comes from the clouds… “He once filled a piñata entirely with courage.”
Silas winks
at Angelica. “Stay thirsty, Baby Red!”
“Angelica?”
“ANGELICA!”
Suddenly she
sits up in bed, sweating profusely. It
takes Angelica a few moments to comprehend it all, for it all to sink in that
it was all just a dream. Which Angelica
is thankful for. The thought of Silas
Mason as a Catholic Priest would make her question her religion. Next to her is the woman who just woke her
up, her wife Lindsey Carter.
“Are you ok, sweetie?” Lindsey asks.
Angelica
thinks about it for a moment before shaking her head. “No, not exactly.”
“I didn’t think so.” She sighs as she
begins to rub Angelica’s shoulders. “You
appeared to be freaking out pretty bad.”
“With good reason.” Angelica remarks as
she swings her legs over the side of the bed and places them on the floor. “A lot has been on my mind lately, Linds.”
“Wanna talk about it?”
Angelica
shrugs her shoulders. “I don’t know what
to do anymore.”
Jones can
see through the mirror that her wife is getting off of the bed. She walks around and joins her by the dresser
where she hangs her arms around her shoulders, leaning on her for support.
“Is this about your daughters?”
Angelica
nods her head. “Yeah…”
“I don’t know what the problem is then.” Lindsey
smiles. “You have always supported your
children.”
“I have tried, I really have, but this time
it isn’t as easy as it looks.” Angelica turns around so that she can look
at Lindsey face to face. “I’m a part of
Silas World, Linds. You know this.”
She touches
her on the nose. “And if you recall, YOU
were the one who encouraged me to sign with Silas Mason.”
Before Silas
Mason ever came along, Angelica Jones had Samantha Hodgson as an agent. Hodgson had offended Lindsey Carter numerous
times to the point that she finally pressured Angelica to leave Hodgson in
favor of Silas Mason. Were it not for
Lindsey Carter, Angelica Jones would never have signed with Silas Mason.
“I know, but Silas hasn’t been a bad agent
has he?”
Angelica
shakes her head. “No, no he hasn’t, I
have done quite well with him. I just
wish…”
She sighs “…I just wish I could get Jessica to see
that me and Marie are happy.”
“Maybe, darling, you should consider hearing
what Jessica has to say?”
Angelica
chuckles lightly. “I know what Jessica
will say. She’s been making her thoughts
and intentions very clear lately regarding what she thinks of my association
with Silas Mason.”
“But have you truly been LISTENING to her?”
Angelica
furrows her brow. “What do you mean?”
Lindsey
smirks. “I’ve lived with you long enough
to know how you Jones women can get; it’s like you said, you can get pigheaded
at times, or maybe stubborn is the right word?”
Angelica
nods. “Yes, we Jones women DO have a
nasty stubborn streak…”
“Right, you are just like Jessica…and Marie,
for that matter…when you girls get something in your head, you just don’t want
to turn away from it. You have it in
your head that you are right and Jessica is wrong. You are not considering the possibility that
maybe Jessica is right and you are wrong.”
“You do realize that there are implications
behind your statement, right? The main
one being that you think there is a chance I should leave Silas World.”
Lindsey nods
her head. “I do get it, and while I may
not be a wrestling expert yet, though I have been training, I do know that you
never once needed Silas Mason to accomplish any of your achievements or
accolades. Same with Marie. You are a wonderful and very talented person,
Angelica, with or without him.”
The two
women embrace. “Thanks, Linds.”
“Anytime…now talk with your daughter. Hear her out.
Ok?”
“Sure…”

My wife
isn’t perfect. Heh, if she were, I think
someone might sue for gimmick infringement…
No, Angelica
Jones isn’t perfect. She has made
mistakes. She has done things I disagree
with. But at the end of the day she is a
professional athlete, just like me, and as not only her peer in the
professional ranks but her lifetime companion outside the ring, I have to say
that I feel I know her possibly better than anyone else outside of her
daughters.
Success is
in her blood. That’s all she knows.
Success is something that was never handed to Angelica on a silver
platter like some silver spoon-fed ingrates in this industry. She fought long and hard through hard trials
and tribulations just to earn a tryout for her first job in the industry. She continued to fight tooth and nail to
protect and raise a family as well as trying to be the best wrestler on the
planet.
I’d say
three hall of fame rings and thirteen world championships is evidence that she
did a pretty good job.
Merrick
Wiseman and Selena Frost, you were both victims of Angelica’s quest to be the
best. At one time or another she has
tried to take you both out of action, simply because you were standing in her
way of the Shot of Adrenaline semi-finals.
Selena, you
DID tap out sweetie. I hate to say it,
but Angelica already DID break you. You
are not the same person you used to be before you started feuding with her. Deny it all day long. It doesn’t change the fact that she did break
you and that she CAN break you again.
Not saying she will, but if I know my Angel like I think I do, then I
know she will do everything within her power to break you down.
Now for
Merrick Wiseman…
You want law
and order in a sport that is completely enveloped in chaos and anarchy. I admire your guts and determination and I
agree, in a perfect world there would be law, order, and equality across the
board.
This is NOT
a perfect world.
Angelica
cares nothing for law and order. She
cares about winning by any means necessary and that ‘s why you got taken
out. That’s why she hurt your arm. If you don’t start understanding that about
Angelica, if you don’t figure out that law and order, that “the right way” just
isn’t going to cut it, then Angelica Jones will cut you down just like she did
the last time.
Whatever
happens on those two nights will happen.
I will never be disappointed in my wife.
I will never love her any less.
In my mind, in my opinion, Angelica Jones is and always will be the best
wrestler in the world today and I look forward to watching her prove it once
again.

Scene 2
Off Camera

“I wouldn’t worry too much about her!”
The eldest
of the Jones children and the Silas World Crown Jewel in IWC, Marie Annabelle
Jones, is visiting a house show for Supreme Championship Wrestling. Her mother happens to be there, which is how
she managed to get passes to be backstage in Angelica’s dressing room for the
entirety of the event.
The matriarch
of the family, Angelica herself, is still in her wrestling gear and is seated
on a blue steel folding chair while Marie is wearing a knee length black skirt,
black open toed high heel shoes, a red short-sleeved blouse and a black leather
jacket. Her long red hair is left to
hang unrestrained to shoulder length.
“I mean, Jessica has never really been all
that smart.” Marie says about her younger sister. “She’s been rather impulsive and pigheaded.”
Angelica
shoots Marie a wry grin. “You just described
the entire Jones family.”
“Oh hush!” The ginger snaps back. “My point is that once Jessica gets
something in her head, you can’t get it out.
So really there’s no point in trying to stop her.”
Angelica
nods her head. “Yes, and that’s MY point exactly…”
Marie, the
eldest child in the Jones family, does not realize that Angelica has had a long
conversation with her wife Lindsey and is now beginning to question her
loyalties. No, she isn’t planning on
leaving Silas World anytime soon. But
still, the seeds have been planted because Lindsey was right when she said that
Angelica can get the job done on her own.
Having Silas Mason around to pave the way and make things easier is
always good, but if push came to shove Angelica knows that she can succeed on
her own. Convincing Marie of that will
be much harder, harder even than competing two nights, back to back on SCW
Flawless.
Competing
back to back nights, or even competing twice in one night, is not something
unusual for Angelica Jones. The red-headed
Boston native has done everything imaginable under the sun during her historic
wrestling career. Facing Merrick Wiseman
on one night and then Selena Frost on another is just another day at the
office.
What makes
this unique, though, is the personal animosity that has built up over the past
several months between the competitors.
Angelica damn near ended both Merrick and Selena’s careers in order to
advance to the semi-finals of the Shot of Adrenaline Tournament. Angelica had always been ruthless and
cunning, but perhaps no one until that night had actually seen just what she
was willing to do in order to get what she wanted. Now Flawless is coming up and this matter
will be put to rest once and for all, one way or the other.
“No, wait, I don’t get it.” Marie
retorts. “What is your point?”
“My point is…” Angelica sighs “…maybe we should hear her out.”
Marie shakes
her head vehemently. “No, just no way.”
“Why not?”
“You already know what she’s gonna say!” Marie
exclaims. “She hates Silas World for some
ungodly reason! She can’t see that Silas
World has been the best thing to happen to the both of us! Maybe she’s jealous?”
“She’s not jealous.” Angelic a remarks. “She’s just worried about us, that’s all.”
“Worried?”
“Yes, worried, and I can’t say I blame
her. Look at what happened to Brittany
Lohan…Kelcey Wallace…David Helms…”
“Bad examples, mom.” Marie fires back. “They were all stupid and rebelled.”
“And what do you think I would do if I were
to ever be forced to make a choice?”
Marie
studies her mother for a moment. “What do
you mean by that, mom?”
“Think about it, Jessica has basically
declared war on Silas World, on us, and primarily on Silas Mason. If he ever decided to take that threat
seriously…which I’m hoping he doesn’t but if he does…what do you think I will
do?”
Angelica
stands up and looks Marie in the eyes. “Do
you honestly believe that I am going to stand by Silas Mason’s side against my
own daughter?”
“You’re serious then, aren’t you?”
“As a heartbeat.” Angelica shakes her
head with a hint of sadness in her voice as she continues to speak. “Look, I hope it doesn’t come to that, but
if it ever does I assure that I won’t pressure you in any way. You are grown woman and I proud of you, but
it would have to be your decision.”
She places a
hand on Marie’s shoulder. “Though I’d
like to think the Jones family would stand united.”
Marie
smirks. “Mom, when have you ever known us
to stand united?”
“Unfortunately, you raise a very valid
point.”

Hello, #GingerNation! Your fearless #GingerLeader and Silas World
Crown Jewel in IWC is right here to speak out on behalf of quite possibly the
greatest ginger to ever set foot inside of a wrestling ring, someone that once
beat an opponent sooooo bad that they became a ginger!
Of course
I’m talking about my favorite woman in all the world, the woman who brought me
INTO this world, my mother Angelica Jones!
Angelica
Jones once saved the whales, defeated the Nazis, AND protected the universe
from a Dalek invasion all in one day AND still had time to meet the family for
dinner! Angelica Jones is so great that
she won the Nobel Peace Prize just for existing!
Did you know
that Angelica Jones is a Time Lord? Ok,
well, I guess the proper term is Time Lady but still!
Selena Frost
and Merrick Wiseman, on the other hand…
…did you
that they once stole candy from a baby?
…did you
know that Merrick Wiseman once fathered children with his horse?
…and did you
know that hanging around Selena Frost too often will either cause cancer or
cause you to join New Eden? Dawn Lohan
screwed Selena five times to sundown every day and now look at her….she is
breastfeeding off of Red Rayne.
Sad…I know…
But even
worse than that are the Crimes Against Gingers that Wiseman and Frost are
guilty of. The cowboy and the snow bitch
are both guilty of Crimes Against Gingers!
Merrick
Wiseman ABUSED authority and power vested upon him by the guy with the funny
name in order to screw Angelica Jones, a famous ginger, out of wins, for the
simple reason that she is a ginger.
Selena Frost,
clearly jealous of Angelica’s red hair, has been constantly harassing poor
Angelica over twitter and on the Breakdown shows themselves. She will not leave her alone.
These Crimes
Against Gingers will NOT go unpunished, I assure you, because if I know my
mother the way I think I know her, then she will have her own form of
punishment ready for those two nights on SCW Flawless.
You see,
Merrick and Selena, Angelica Jones is your judge, jury, and executioner.

“If
you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” ---
Adolf Hitler
Adolf Hitler
was despicable human being who is no doubt rotting in hell right now, but I
think he described Selena Frost and her true believers to a “T” with that
infamous quote of his. If you tell a lie
often enough the people, or the sheep as I prefer to call them, will eventually
believe you.
I do mock
the similarities between you and Elsa because it is clear you an Elsa rip-off
but I don’t even care much about that.
Rip off whoever you want, doesn’t bother me really. What I ultimately hate about you, Selena
Frost, is the fact that you and I are really the same person.
As much as I
hate to admit it, we are not that different.
It took until Retribution and me tapping out for me to realize that we
are not different, that we are really and truly one and the same. We both have a desire to be the best in the
world at what we do and we will do anything to avenge a loss, to get revenge,
or to just to get ahead.
I saw that
in your eyes at Retribution. I saw the
COLD hatred in your eyes and for a split second I forgot how much I hated
you. For a split second, I actually liked you.
But then I
remembered the one thing that does make us different, the one thing that sets
me apart from you, the one thing that makes me different.
I do not
deny who I am. I am a lying, conniving,
manipulative, sadistic, bloodthirsty bitch who will do anything to get what she
wants. I will screw anyone over, I will
cheat anyone, I will bludgeon anyone in order to get ahead. There is nothing that I will not do to get to
the top of the mountain and that, Selena, is why I have been at the top of the
mountain for so damn long in my wrestling career. That is why I have been at the top on
thirteen separate occasions in my career and why I WILL be on top once again
before I retire.
You can
#BelieveIt…
But you, Selena, you deny who you really are;
because you, just like me, will do anything to get ahead, bend whatever rules
are needed to be bent in order to win.
You brag on yourself and gloat and talk about how great you are, and yet
you have the idiots, the sheep, eating out of the palm of your hand.
Kinda like our friend Adolf. He spoke about his own personal
greatness. He did horrible things to get
ahead. And he had the sheep believing
him. He had his own #TrueBelievers as
well.
That also
happens to be your weakness.
You want
them to love you. I can tell that from
your irritating, annoying tweets bragging on your #TrueBelievers, you want them
to love you and will do anything to make sure they love you, that they continue
to drink your kool-aid.
And thus
you'll hold back, won't you? You can
send me away, you can stop me once and for all, but you are not going to do
what is necessary to finish me once and for all because you don't want your
pathetic little believers to see the real you, to see the real Selena Frost.
I have seen
the real Selena Frost at Retribution.
The real Selena Frost is every bit an arrogant monster as I am and I met
her at Retribution. That is the Selena
Frost that I actually like. Not the
hypocrite, not the Selena Frost who pretends to be a beloved hero to her true
believers.
Hypocrisy is
what I hate, Selena. Your
hypocrisy. You are a hypocrite who
pretends to care for your beloved fans when in reality you view them the same
way as I do...
...as sheep. Blind, stupid, pathetic sheep.
That's why I
am stronger than you and why I shall ultimately prove victorious over you. I don't care what the fans think of me. I don't care what anyone thinks about me. I will do what I want, when I want to do it,
public opinion be damned.
I cannot
lose to you at Flawless. I am literally
in a win-win situation, Selena. The only
way you can beat me and make me tap out is to unleash the beast, to show the
world and your pathetic believers that you are the same kind of monster I
am. Only the rage of a monster can beat
me, can make me tap out to you a second time.
The only way you can win is by tearing away the veil that hides your
true self and reveal the sadistic, heartless bitch that you really and truly
are.
If and when
you do that, you will prove that people like me and your ex Dawn Lohan have
been right about all along. That people
like Red Rayne have been right about you all along. Your True Believers will abandon you when
they see your hypocrisy.
I win.
I'm not sure
you have it in you to do that. And if
you don't, if you are so stubborn and so hell bent on maintaining your illusion
of being a hero to your stupid fans, then you will hold back. Or worse yet for you, you would tap out.
That's
right, Selena. You would TAP OUT to me
rather than admit that I am right about you.
See, I don't
need to break you. I already HAVE broken
you. I broke you that very first time I
made you tap out on Breakdown to the Angel's Arch. You saw in me the one person who would push
you to the edge, who would push you to the point of no return, who would force
you make the impossible decision of your precious image or vanquishing me.
Because
that's the ONLY way you are going to be defeating me, Selena. That is the only way you can stop me. You have to abandon your believers, you have
to show the world you really are. I
cannot and will not be made to tap out otherwise.
Therefore,
either way you slice it, I will make you submit. Think about it, frosty, either I will make
you literally tap out, literally slap your hand on that mat and admit that you
are not as good as me, that Angelica Jones is your superior, that she is the
best in the world.
Or...
You will
submit to what I have said about you all along.
You will submit to the fact that you are indeed an egomaniac and a
sadistic monster, a cold-hearted selfish individual who will do whatever is in
her best interests only and will do whatever it takes to get ahead, a person
who does not give a damn about her fans.
You cannot
defeat me as the supposed hero that you proclaim yourself to be. You can only defeat me by becoming the
villain that I and many others know you to be.
So the reality of your situation is that you will either tap out to me a
second time, thus humbling yourself and humiliating yourself in front of the
entire world...
...or I will
expose you as the real villain here in SCW.
It's nothing
to be ashamed of, Selena. Red Rayne and
the girls of New Eden are villains and proud of it. Silas Mason and the rest of us in The World,
villains and proud of it. We do what we
want. We will walk over anyone and
everyone in order to achieve ultimate victory.
Nothing will stop us.
So just
admit it, Selena. Come to Flawless and
admit it, submit to being the villain that you really and truly are. Because I don't want to face that annoying
prissy pretender. I want to face the
real Selena Frost. I want to face the
villain, the monster.
I want to
look deep into your eyes and see a monster, the same monster I saw at Retribution. That's what I want. Give me what I want.
You will
give me what I want, Selena. You will
give me what I want or tap out and lie there, a broken person, a broken
pathetic excuse for a human being.
