In the parking lot, a lonely car sits, surrounded by the emptiness, as all the other stars have left. There are no lights near this car, except for the small glare that comes from the glowing city in the background. Due to this light, a figure of a woman is seen leaning on the car, with her hair in a mess, and obviously very emotionally distraught. As she sits, a few small sobs are heard from her, but no words come from her mouth. As she leans there, the arena door opens, and closes a few seconds later. Footsteps are heard, and a man appears next to the car, and stops for a few seconds, taking time to stare at the woman.
So...um...you must be my valet? Didn't I ask for my car to be parked closer to the door?
The woman lets out a loud sob, and bursts into tears. The man steps back, feeling that he said something wrong.
You have NO idea who I am, do you?
She continues to sob, as the man sighs, and reaches into his pocket, and pulls out his keys, before pressing a button which turns on his headlights, and the lights inside his car, giving a bit more light on the two. the man is recognized as Chris Legend. The woman looks familiar, but not quite noticeable.
Look...The valet thing was a joke. It's not every day that you come to your car, only to find an unknown woman leaning against it, crying.
The woman stops, and looks at him for a moment.
You really don't know who I am?
...No...I'm sorry.
She continues to sob, but manages to speak through the tears.
I ran this company...I was the head honcho for a long time...but then my jackass brother had to take that from me...
Oh...Charlotte, right? I've heard stories about you...
The woman, now known as Charlotte Hunter, takes a moment to stare at the ground.
Yes...What kind of stories? Good? Bad?
A little of both...
You're...Chris Legend, right?
I sure am.
Charlotte begins to slow down crying, and begins taking deep breathes.
Look, Charlotte, I know you've been torn up since losing MWA to JJ. It happens. I lost my Bloodline title in a fluke match. By the books, I should have won, but thanks to a bogus count from the ref, MY title was stripped from me, and declared vacant. Sure, it pissed me off, but then I realized something...
Chris reaches into his gym bag, and pulls out his MWA Tag Team Championship, and stares at it, while speaking.
I may not have been happy about losing the title. But, the man I was facing was...and is...one of my best friends, and hell, my brother-in-law now. I realized that losing my title may have been an inconvience for me, but the man on the other side of the ring from me stood with me. He knew I would get pissed. He knew I would attack him. He knew all of this...and is still my friend.
I don't quite get what you're getting at...
Chris puts the title belt away, and stares at the sky for a moment, before looking and Charlotte, with a huge grin on his face.
Charlotte...it's not about the power. It's not about control. It's about the people that care for you. Even if you lose everything you have, you will always have your friends. I'm not sure who those friends are. But, you know. You know exactly who they are, and you know they still love you for who you are.
By now, Charlotte has finished crying, and the mascara on her face has run down her cheeks. Even through all of that, she manages to start to smile.
That...that makes sense. Chris...Thank you. I'm ready to get back into MWA...Even if JJ owns majority stock of the company, I still own 49%...This is as much mine as it is his...
Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte! You're missing the point! Don't go back in there with the intention of BEATING your brother! Go back in there with the intention of rejoining your brother! No matter how you look at it...he's still your brother! He's known you your whole life! You shouldn't waste your life fighting with him! If you go in there, and try to make up with him, then you can have your family again! Isn't that what you want?
Charlotte cries a little bit more, but has a smile on her face, before laughing.
Chris...Thank you so much! It makes so much sense now!
She stands up, and hugs Chris.
I really hope he will still accept me as his sister, after all I've done to him...Thank you again, Chris...
Charlotte smiles, and walks off, over to the building.
It's good to know I've made an impact on at least one persons life...
Legend chuckles, and gets in his car and drives off.
