[ OOC: Hardly a complete rp, but I'm just out of steam... need sleep and have to work tonight through the deadline. So I really just getting this up to say that I didn't wiff with Crissy for the match. Sorry in advance for the quality. ]

Things have seemingly started to look up for Minka as of late, because she and Samantha were able to pick up a win against an almost certifiable SCW hall of famer Thomas Valentine and his partner Kandis. That’s the type of win that Chance of Pain needs to get back in to contention for the tag team titles, but more importantly it gives them both momentum heading in to The Taking Hold of the Flame Battle royal. Now this year Samantha wasn’t taking part in the match. In fact, she wasn’t going to be having a match at the show in the slightest. Minka’s a little hazy on the details as to why she wasn’t, but she understood.
Back to the tag match it was the first time either one of them won a ‘big’ match in a while and could feel good about it. Not that wins against Team Desire is two point oh is something you can sneeze at. However, just something about this match seemed more important. This last match had definitely raised Minka’s confidence and brought back something that she had been searching for… her old self. Her old self in the way where she knew that she could win matches, she knew that anytime she stepped into that squared circle she was never out of the match. Minka not only found that this was not only helping her, but it meant that the competition, as much as they wanted to count her out, couldn’t take her lightly anymore.
Was it living at her Grandfather’s house or was it just that she was actually telling herself that she could win? She didn’t know, she couldn’t understand it, and if she couldn’t she knew damn well her opponents wouldn’t be able to understand where this new found confidence was coming from, and that gave her an advantage, because they couldn’t tear it down. They couldn’t claim that it was a fluke. Her new confidence could be equated a bit to one of the original Star Wars’ movies, Return of The Jedi.
This though, was the return of Crissy Gardner and she was going to make it a blockbuster thriller. She was going to make sure it become one of those blockbusters that everyone wants to see over and over again, and it starts at Taking Hold of the Flame. It’s where she starts her claim to the main event of Rise to Greatness, but she knew that this wasn’t going to be easy. She knew that it was going to be a rigorous climb over thirty nine other wrestlers… some of them even friends. However, she couldn’t have doubt about the end result, she was going to make sure that she survived this match and was ready for anything. No matter who was in the ring and what they wanted to throw at her, she was going to make sure that she was going throw that and more back at them.
She wouldn’t admit to anyone that knows her, but she had come to the conclusion that Luke was a great sparring partner. Their training session they had just had went through a mix of hard takedowns, stiff body shots, and gut wrenching submission moves. She couldn’t help, but feel as tired as a corpse in the moment. She walked out of the barn, a bottle of water in her left hand, over her right shoulder was a towel that she uses to wipe some sweat away from the brow of her forehead. She walks up to the stoop of the main house and takes a seat on it.
Multiple thoughts starts to run through her head in the moment, one of them being how long it’s been since she held a title belt. It was at least a good six hundred days since she held the SCW Women’s championship in an unofficial manner. Just let that sink in for a moment… it’s probably been over a thousand days since the last time she was officially recognized as a champion anywhere, but she was planning on ending that drought at Rise to Greatness.
The thought of that number was just mind blowing to her, but it would be ending soon enough though… no matter the cost. She knew the odds of her winner the battle royal were low… hell she knew that she was going to have to go through Ash and Patience to get the title match, but that was something that she was prepared to do.
