Kenzi sat up out of bed and grabbed her phone, the grin on her face illuminated by the glow. She turned to Sarah’s pale form, resting in a deep slumber next to her and gave her a gentle shake. Sarah stirred slowly, giving a stretch as her red eyes adjusted to the sight of her best friend and lover. Kenzi leaned in and kissed her, a quick peck on the cheek. “Babe…its 3:00, are you ready?”
Sarah smiled, wiping the sleep from her eyes, “Article Seven time?”
Kenzi shook her head, “No…later for that! It’s time to call Franny!”
The disappointment on Sarah’s face over the postponement of their usual Article Seven sex was apparent, but it was quickly replaced by a mischievous grin and a quick nod of her head. Last night Kenzi had promised to call Francesca Hayward, Empire Pro’s newest interviewer at 3 am, per their newly signed contract. This had created quite the stir over social media, but in the end Fran had begrudgingly agreed to answer the phone at the late hour, despite protests from Gray Malone, EPW Management, and particularly a very pissed off founder of EPW, one Nathan Callaghan.
Kenzi’s fingers flashed over the screen as she scrolled through her contacts and found Fran’s personal number. She looked at Sarah, who sat with her knees pulled up to her chest, hiding her usual nakedness. Kenzi hit the call button, Facetiming the interviewer at the most ungodly hour. The screen flashed to life and Fran’s sleepy face appeared in good order, hair a ruffled mess, but she was awake and that was all that mattered.
“…oh my god…you’re really calling me at three in the morning…”
Kenzi grinned, “I always honor my contractual agreements Franny…and now, Sarah and I know that you do as well!”
Sarah leaned into the picture, red eyes searching the screen, “Where is Gray Malone? Is he in there with you?” She whispered, “…is he naked under the covers Franny…?”
“NO!” She answered quickly, then added, “That’s none of your business if he is!” She covered her face as she spoke in a whisper, “…why didn’t I read that contract before I signed it…?”
Kenzi chimed back in, “You made the right choice Franny! Trust me, singing that contract was the BEST move of your life, and do you want to know why?” Kenzi waited for Fran to look back into the camera. When she did, she moved the camera so close that her face filled the entire frame, “Because you are now officially the third member of Team Kickass!” Sarah whispered in Kenzi’s ear and she nodded, then corrected herself, “You are the third member of the professional arm of Team Kickass!”
Sarah leaned into the frame holding a tiny white dwarf bunny, whose pink nose sniffed at the air. “Lil’ Has is the third member of our private inner circle dearie, I am sure you understand.”
Fran nodded, still not understanding completely. “Yeah…I got that…but, what does all of this mean?”
Kenzi smiled, “It means that life as you know it is about to change. It means that life as you know it is about to kick plenty of ass! Just like Sarah and I are going to do for EPW in the very near future! You see, I know that they are unhappy with us after last night…the whole mess with Gray Malone trying to slide all up in them mentions and tell you what you can and cannot do was a bit sexist and out of line. That’s why I had to put him in check! Bottom line Franny, you’re your own woman just like SareBear and I! We don’t take kindly to anyone trying to lord themselves over us and especially presume to speak for us…and that is why we now have you! When we have something to say to masses officially, you’ll be the one to help us present it!”
Fran sat up, looking more wakeful as she listened, “So…I am going to do all of your EPW interviews? That contract seemed a bit long for just that.”
Kenzi chuckled and shook her head slowly, her dark braids swinging back and forth. “Noooooo…you are our official interviewer…at ALL times! That doesn’t just include our EPW dealings…that also includes our exploits in other organizations as well as my dealings in Hollywood. Sooooo, your social calendar is about to get a LOT busier!”
Fran scratched her head as she thought about what it really meant. It was a daunting prospect for her, but it was also a very big deal for her as well. After attending the huge premiere of ‘Silent, but Deadly’ she was smitten with the idea of what that could do for her own professional aspirations. Of course, she also had obligations with EPW to consider as well, and they were NOT very happy with Team Kickass after last night. “Forgive me…that all sounds great…it really does, but what about EPW management? They weren’t very happy about the way things went down last night. I mean…you told Nathan Callaghan that you wouldn’t honor your contract. That’s a big deal!”
Kenzi waved it off with a smirk, “I’ll clear things up with Nate, don’t you worry about that! I understand that he was just trying to protect you last night when he said that you wouldn’t honor your contract with us…” she shrugged, “…I merely threw it right back in his face, if contracts are that worthless in his opinion…why should I have to honor one myself?”
Fran nodded, “Well…I guess that makes sense.” She tucked her hair back as she asked, “So, you two are defiantly a go for Oblivion?”
Kenzi and Sarah looked at each other and giggled, “OH! We are certainly a go for that! You see Franny, last night just illustrates the prevailing attitude of negativity that has been running through the company towards myself and Sarah since the day we stepped on the scene. In the build up to our first match, Erica DiVyne went out of her way to slur me by using a racially insensitive remark…”
Sarah chimed in, “And we beat her ass!”
Kenzi continued, “The next week we faced the Tag Team Champions and then we were AGAIN slurred when they said that the only reason we won was because of our vaginas…and we were again the victim of a slur because of our supposed sexual identity…”
Sarah spoke up, “RUDE!! But we totally kicked their asses!”
Kenzi turned to Sarah and the two fist bumped. Fran looked around as the screech of a falcon could be heard in the distance. “How do you guys do that?”
The two women looked at her, then erupted into laughter. “Franny…you are on the winning team now, just like Sarah and I are going to be on 4 August in the Air Canda Centre! We will show you how it works soon enough.”
Fran corrected, “Canada…its Canada, not Canda.”
Sarah giggled, “Check your contract dearie…when you speak to us, it is Canda…please get it right!”
Kenzi continued, “Team Kickass has proven its dominance over the champions once and we will do it again, even with the inclusion of Betsy Granger and Brooke Mathis in the mix! It’s our destiny to represent EPW as champions…one way or another because the current bevy of mutes and do-nothings are dragging down the brand! Nate might be upset with the fact that Sarah and I stood up to him last night, but I think he will realize very quickly that Team Kickass isn’t a pain in his ass…we are the undisputed class of his company! We don’t bend or break when it comes to defending ourselves or EPW! He will see that we are not his enemy, we are his greatest asset!”
Sarah grinned, “And after we send two more teams into the Abyss on Friday, we will be the number one contenders and championship gold will not be far behind!”
Kenzi turned the camera to herself one last time, “We are on the rise, not just with EPW but across the world Franny and now that you are with Team Kickass, you are also on the rise with us! Congratulations on becoming part of a winning team Franny…just like the entire world will see on Friday night!”
Sarah leaned in, her face right beside Kenzi’s, “Get some sleep dearie…you look like death warmed over! Please make an effort to look better from now on. I’ll send you some items from my Renati Brand Firestarter collection to help you not look like a peasant from here on out, yes?”
“Well…” Fran started to speak up, but they ended the call abruptly, cutting her off.
Kenzi and Sarah looked at one another and nodded, “I like her…”
Sarah nodded, “I suppose she’ll do…”
