«Mercedes Vargas opens the curtains in the morning and go out to the terrace, slow motion. She turns in the direction of a walkie-talkie on a table and runs to pick it up.»
«The morning commute. Among them is Jorge, dressed in a blazer and slacks. He goes through the crowd until he finds an alleyway and disappears through it and holds up a walkie-talkie to his mouth.»
Jorge: This is Red Rover to Harpy. Over.
«Mercedes sighs as she picks up the device and holds it away from her mouth, but close enough so she can be heard.»
Mercedes: Isn't this a little early in the morning for this? Where's your 20, Red Rover?
Jorge: In my wallet, next to a few fives and a couple of ones.
Mercedes: Haha, try again.
Jorge: I got a lock on the perp heading down to Sanctuary ten minutes ago. Female. Blonde hair in a ponytail. Say about five feet seven, a lithe 120 pounds. Probably enjoys The Notebook. Wasn't in their uniform, dressed casually. You writing this down?
«Mercedes is holding up a notebook and pen.»
Mercedes: And? Come on, give me something concrete here. There's lots of blondes around Jackson Heights.
Jorge: But not every blonde wears a hat - with a white eagle on it.
«He sighs and leans against an old factory wall with one foot up and rakes his fingers through his hair.»
Mercedes: Looks like we've got our girl. Anything else?
Jorge: I couldn't make out the license plate number, but she was driving a Mary. Got the package?
«Mercedes looks directly at a standard size first-class envelope placed on the television. She walks over and grabs it as she looks out the terrace.»
Mercedes: Right here. Just one question. How did you know she watched The Notebook?
Jorge: I have my sources, let's leave it at that.
«Mercedes raises an eyebrow.»
Jorge: [Looking at his watch, then glances at the cathedral] Look, there's not much time. If that letter isn't delivered...it could mean the end of the world as we know it. We're on the clock.
And all is right with the world again.
That match with Cynthia Warren at the pay-per-view was great. She has to rank right up there as one of my toughest opponents….ever. Sure, Crystal Hilton may or may not have used a fast count, but really? The three hour drive from Queens would not have been worth it if I just finished her off in, say, thirty seconds? You know what? Regardless of how it went down, that counts as a win at the end of the night.
Of course, making Chrissie pay for it with the Black Rose Overdrive was just the icing on the cake.
Hey, at least it got a standing ovation! I'm sure that counts for something!
So, my debut on pay-per-view was a success. I'm the number one contender for the Sirens Championship. And it's not like I really need it because let's face it, I can get a title shot when I want at any time, but it's a nice feeling all the same. In just a few weeks, it's going to be me and the great and powerful Zelda Knite in Canada.
I tell you, it can't come soon enough. I'm waiting with baited breath for the moment I get the opportunity to finally wipe that condescending smirk off her face. I've done it before, and I can do it again.
I'm going to be ready for her this time.
Oh yes, indeed.
Wait a minute. What's this?
Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird...It's a plane... It's…
just Roxi….le sigh…
«A comic book appears which sees Roxi on the cover standing in front of a flagpole and saluting, a special Fourth of July disclaimer is seen in bold lettering. The book flips a few pages before the camera focuses on a single panel. As the following narration takes place, the camera pans though each panel as a montage as the story dictates.»
When we last left our paragon of justice, Roxi Johnson met her doppelganger in Zelda Knite in a battle of wills at CPW’s first-ever pay-per-view, Undisputed, to crown the first Sirens Champion. In what turned out to be quite the affair, Roxi and her dangerous opponent put on a show in many might have called the match of the night for the Sirens Division, (continuing a trend that has started since the debut of the promotion five weeks ago tomorrow). However, despite her valiant effort, Zelda seemed to have an answer at every turn and in the end, our plucky hero went down in defeat, suffering her first loss in CPW the process. Despite the loss, the two rivals show sportsmanship, but deep down inside, the look of disappointment was evident.
Now, as the scene shifts to another week, our superhero looks towards her next challenge, and it’s against a foe who decided to rain on her parade – the marauder with a mouth – Mercedes Vargas! With a renewed purpose and resolve, can our riotous, raving rascal get retribution? Not only for her loss two weeks ago, but also for Mercedes attacking her after their last encounter? Or will the Argentine Assassin claim another target and finally place Roxi's name on her checklist!?!
This pretty much writes itself.
You’ll excuse if I sound a little jaded. I just don’t find this match that much entertaining after the outcome of Undisputed. I mean, sure I did win my match two weeks ago, but don’t get me wrong, Roxi, you gave it your all against Zelda for the title, but you lost. You gave one hell of an effort, but you lost. Just like she always does, Zelda walked out of another arena with her hand raised, and her record is still perfect. At this rate, she’ll probably win her next few matches – facing Angel Kash again? This should boost ratings – until we meet again at the next pay-per-view, which isn’t that far away, to be quite frank. Still, that’s in the future. Right now, it’s you and me.
Now, I almost know how this is going to play out. You’re looking for a little redemption after two weeks ago, and lo and behold, not only will you get a chance to do that, but you get the person who nearly could have put your career in jeopardy.
Before your loss to Zelda I have to say, Roxanne, you've had it quite easy. Trust me on this one, it’s not going to get any easier from here on out. Don’t get me wrong, I know what you can do. I know how good you are. You are galaxies away from Cynthia Warren when it comes to talent, but what happens when you’re up against someone who is head and shoulders above the rest of the roster? What happens when Roxi Johnson faces her toughest test yet? Well, you get what happened the last time we met inside the ring. You may have gotten the pinfall, but it wasn’t against me.
And it won't happen this time, either.
You know, it’s a good thing you’re going into this with such confidence, because you’re going to need it. And just to give you a good idea of how our match will go, it will probably look a little something like this:
Now, I can’t guarantee that there will be cheesy music playing in the background, but what I can guarantee is after I drop you on your head - again - with the Black Rose Overdrive...
You won’t be getting up.
Take my foolish advice, sweetheart: Come July 3 on CPW 4, I would bring more than your vast knowledge of comic books and your “super hero” powers to get past me.
ARRIVE! WIN! LEAVE! SMILE!
So, yeah. I guess I'll be seeing in you in Long Island then, huh?
Oh, and Happy Fourth.
