ORIGINAL RECIPE
Rune walks to the ring with Karli and Fenryr at her side. Karli and Fenryr climb into the ring as Rune heads up to the announcer table and takes a microphone. She’s talking before she even joins Karli and Fenryr in the ring.
Rune Sigidottir: Let me tell you all something right now. Everyone in the back, you two clowns down there that talk during everyone’s matches, the management, the fans. I’ve been in this game for years and it has been my distinct pleasure to manage the most dominating force in professional wrestling. We’ve held numerous championship titles and have gathered other accolades as well. But, as I’m sure that anyone with a pulse and an internet connection can see, there’s been a bit of a…hiccup lately. Things have started falling apart for Ragnarok in the ring, and if those in charge think we haven’t noticed what the problem is, well, they’re just stupid. But solving the problem requires a certain…delicacy that only Fenryr can manage.
Fenryr grabs Karli by the throat and shoves her back into the corner.
Karli Frost: What…what are you doing?!
There’s no answer from Fenryr, but Rune continues talking. Fenryr looks like he could murder Karli and sleep like a baby.
Rune Sigidottir: The solution is simple. Fenryr and I are going back into business for ourselves after we dump about a hundred and forty…
Rune looks back at Karli and then smiles as if she's about to unleash some great secret.
Rune Sigidottir: …five…pounds of useless, dead weight.
Fenryr holds Karli in the corner by the throat.
Rune Sigidottir: You’ve betrayed us, Karli. It all started when you missed that first match for the Warfare trophy and it continues even now. You know who destroyed Fenryr’s car. You have to know! You cost us the Warfare tournament. You’ve caused us nothing but embarrassment! Now it’s time to pay!
Karli shakes her head but doesn’t say anything.
Rune Sigidottir: You can deny it all you want but we know the truth! You’re up to something! But I’m going to tell you this. I’m better at these mind games than you are, but I’m a bit perplexed here. You can tell me why you’re doing this and who you’re doing it with and nothing bad will happen to you.
A beat.
Rune Sigidottir: What? You don’t have anything to say?
Karli can’t talk because Fenryr is choking her. He launches her across the ring by the neck before he and Rune descend on her and deliver a vicious beating. Karli tries to escape but every time she gets close to the ropes they pull her back to the center of the ring. The beating continues until “Coming Undone” begins to play and Casey runs out of the back with a baseball bat in her hand. Fenryr and Rune ditch the ring and circle around before heading to the back. Casey stands there with the bat on her shoulder. Karli stands up behind Casey, but when she approaches Casey turns to face her. She puts the bat in her chest and shoves Karli into a corner. Casey is handed a microphone.
Casey Grey: Karli, don’t think for a second that I ran out here to stop them from stompin' you stupider because I like you. It looks like they’ve kicked you out of what’s left of their gang, though, and you are out here all alone. Except for me, of course. So what I need you to do is stand there, shut up, and listen. I’m not proposin' that we become friends or anything, God knows I wouldn’t be able to stomach that, but I am proposin' a sort of treaty of…mutual assured survival. See, you’ve made a lot of enemies over the past few years and since I’m in the process of burnin' every bridge I’ve ever built we’re both kind of in a dangerous spot. We can go back to hatin' each other after we deal with our enemies.
Karli looks like she’s about to say something.
Casey Grey: You don’t have to answer right now. Take your time. Really think about it.
Casey throws the microphone at Karli’s feet and leaves the ring, heading towards the back with her bat on her shoulder. Karli watches her, then picks up the microphone.
Karli Frost: Casey! Hey, Casey!
Casey turns around.
Karli Frost: You’re right. And while it’s true that I’d rather die that actually stand beside you, I accept your offer.
Casey nods and continues to the back, Karli follows some distance behind.
