PWP 3: Strength Of A Woman - Catherine Hunter vs. Mercedes Young vs. Candy

1 RP Max. 300 word minimum. Deadline is October 13th at 11:59 PM Eastern.

*The scene opens up with Candy sitting in the middle of a park in Miami. She was sitting indian style on the grass in the middle of a big open area. There were kids playing in the background, enjoying the beautiful weather. Running in circles around her like a hyper maniac was her little dog, Fluffy. Fluffy was practically her best friend, and went everywhere with her. And I do mean everywhere! Candy held up a ball she picked up from the ground next to her and threw it. Fluffy took off running after it as she giggled. She seemed so oblivious to anything outside of that little dog of hers. She didn't even notice that her boyfriend, Marcus Cage, had snuck up behind her. He surprised her with a bag of M&Ms dropped right into her lap. She jumped, startled, but then started to laugh a little.*

Candy: MARCUS! How did you know that I wanted some M&Ms?

Marcus: I just know these things!

*He sat down beside her and kissed her on the cheek. She smiled and laid her head on his shoulder.*

Marcus: So what are you doing, sitting out here all alone?

Candy: I'm not all alone! Fluffy is with me.

Marcus: Where did Fluffy go?

Candy: She's chasing a stick! Here she comes!

*Fluffy comes running back full speed with the stick in her mouth. When she notices that Marcus is beside Candy she drops the stick and barks. She runs right to Marcus, jumping up in his lap and licking his face.*

Marcus: Hello Fluffy.

*She barked at him, as if talking back to him, and wagging her tail.*

Candy: She's excited to see you!

Marcus: I can tell. I am sure it has absolutly nothing to do with the treat I have in my pocket that I picked up for her.

*Hearing the word "treat" Fluffy starts rubbing her head against his arms. Marcus picked her up and set her on the grass and then reached in his pocket, holding out the treat. She instantly sat and started barking. Marcus tossed the treat to her and she laid there chewing on it, perfectly content.*

Candy: She loves it Marcus!!!

Marcus: Yeah she was pretty excited to get that treat. But that's not the only thing to be excited about.

Candy: It's not???

Marcus: No, it's not. You stepping back into the ring is a really big thing, ya know.

Candy: I've just been out of the ring for so long, I wanted to wrestle again. So i signed up for that PWPWPPPP Thing

Marcus: PWP, Professional Wrestling Project.

Candy: Yeah! That! You and Dynamite had so much fun with it last month I wanted to have fun too!

Marcus: Even though we didn't win, we DID have fun. And that's what it was all about.

Cany: Yeah! I miss the fun of wrestling sometimes.

Marcus: We all do when we are out of the ring for an extended period of time. Some more than others. And if you think it's time for you to get back in the ring, you go for it. You know I'll be right there by your side wether it be just this one match, or if you decide to return in PWSi and fight in the Vixxxen's division.

Candy: I know, Marcus. I'm just going to have this match and see where that leaves me! I might want to get back in the ring more after, I don't know.

Marcus: Getting the itch to compete again.

Candy: I'm not itchy. Neither is Fluffy! I gave her a bath this morning.

*Marcus chuckled softly and shook his head.*

Marcus: I meant that it's been on your mind alot lately.

Candy: Yeah, it has.

Marcus: Then go for it. This doesn't really have anything to do with Queen of the Ring being announced, does it?

Candy: Maybe...

Marcus: So have you been told who your opponents are?

Candy: Yeah, Catherine Hunter and Mercedes Young... I think.

Marcus: Do we know anything about them?

Candy: Not really. I know Mercedes is new to the business, and Catherine is really really mean.

Marcus: Tell ya what, we will hit the ring this afternoon and do some training for your match, ok?

Candy: OK!

*The two of them continue to chat as the scene fades to black*

The scene opens up in a penthouse in lower Manhattan in New York City. We see Mercedes sitting in the living room with her legs crossed, just watching TV. She’s currently signed with PWSWF, a company that hasn’t seen any daylight since….well, who knows when. She’s been there since May. The only thing that happened to her in PWSWF is that she made a “friend”.  

Mercedes: So, Finally after waiting months and months for a debut match, I finally get one with PWP. My own company, PWSWF hasn’t given anyone any matches or anything. It’s pretty much as dead as an old person. But, I’m thankful that I can go to a place like PWP so I can unleash the anger I’ve felt in these months of being led to nowhere like a flock of sheep.

Mercedes looks out the window towards central park, which she can see pretty good from her perch. She gathers a thought for a second before speaking again.

Mercedes: I’m new to this company, but I’m not here to stay in the same spot and battle same person over and over again like some kind of baboon. I’m not just going to stand in the corner eating paste while things pass me by. What my plans are in any company is to steal the spot light from people and I don’t care if you get angry about it. I’m here to make an impact, and I’m not going to wait 500 years to do something, I’m going to make an impact NOW! I’m not going to be your typical rookie who is scared to perform out in the crowd, or cry because they got beat for the first time.

Mercedes still looking out the window towards central park, turns around and faces the camera. She then walks towards the red chair closet to the window and sat down on it.

Mercedes: One more thing about me, I’m not the type of girl who will get all giggly when she sees the person she likes, that ain’t my style. I don’t get all hyped up on meeting big celebrities because in reality, they’re just money hungry crybabies like everyone else.  

Mercedes laces her fingers together and places them gently on her stomach and begins to rock slowly on that arm chair she’s sitting on. She looks ahead at something but we can’t pinpoint what she’s really looking at, it’s as if she’s in deep thought.

Mercedes: PWP, I’ve watched this company and I got to say, it’s a lot of promise for a show that started only months ago.  Now, we have Candy, everything I hate. See Candy, I’ve had a lot of time on my hands to watch that company you’re in and yet I didn’t see you anywhere. The only place I saw you, was hanging around with that disgusting looking man in Cage or whatever his stupid name is. But alas, I shouldn’t be taking Candy lightly in this match, but I could. See, she comes from the isle of stupid and doesn’t know an elbow from an eyebrow. But that’s ok though because she’s a special kind of stupid….So I can understand why it takes her a while to understand stuff thoroughly. But she better understand this, I’m not your girly girl, I won’t be in that ring skipping around like a tramp and trying to please the crowd. I’m here to break your chest plate and rip your heart out.

Mercedes lets out a slight chuckle.

Mercedes: I’m not forgetting the titles you won there sweet Candy, but in wrestling it’s “What have you done for me lately” and you haven’t done anything but play with Cage’s pet snake like a tramp. I mean, when was the last match you had? 4 years ago? Yeah…..If you try to use that on me, I can’t help the fact my company is nothing a airheads who wither hide then do their jobs right. IF that stuff ugly thing she calls a dog gets in my way, I’m going to make dog soup out of it.

Mercedes remains seated like she is, and she keeps rocking back and forth.

Mercedes: Catherine Hunter is it? I haven’t seen much from you either, All I see was the bio. And it said you were a former model? Yeah right, give me another lie.  I don’t see someone looking like you being a model, I mean models are nothing but plastic women with price tag boobs. But I guess that means you’re pretty relaxed in your own skin. Now, since I know nothing of you and I want it to remain that way, I won’t go on and on. I say you and I will give that puppet in Candy a run for her money. Just remember one thing, I’m not going to be laying down for you or anyone.

Mercedes stands up from the chair and slowly walks towards the kitchen area of the house.

Mercedes: You and I are pretty much in the same boat I suppose, I mean you haven’t heard of me and I haven’t heard of you. The way I see it, it’ll be a good match between the both of us. The battle of the unknown.

Mercedes opens the fridge door and grabs something from it. She closes the door of the fridge and walks past the camera ignoring it. It pretty much means she’s done with the promo. The scene goes to black.
