Alexandra's Inner Thoughts Post Match

Cleo Phillips begrudgingly extends a hand to Alexandra Calaway, who looks her up and down for one long moment, before slapping her hand out of the way as the pair come nose-to-nose. Hawk storms through the ropes as well, getting into the fray and jaw-jacking with both parties, ending with a standoff among all three World Title contenders in the lead-up to Dishonored. As the three competitors vying for the World title at Dishonored square off in the centre of the ring, we cut back to ringside where our announce team begins the broadcast’s send-off.

My eyes will always be on the World Championship. There's nothing that's going to change that, not until that pretty piece is in my hands.  That title while it may still be around Cleo's waist, I've shown I'm more than capable of being the champion this company deserves.. no.. the CHAMPION IT NEEDS.  It's only a matter of time before CLEO is taken down by my hands.  I played nice that night.. I played the perfect tag team partner.. but next time we are across the ring from each other.. things will be different.  And there will be blood.  I can't wait to see you bleed for me.. for the voice... for those who desire it.  Mike and Cleo.. your fate is sealed.

Where have you been?

Not only is there my long standing feud with Cleo Phillips and Mike Hawk, but now I have to face someone who seems to have all but disappeared after the loss to Devon Ryder.  She reached out starting the recording on the camera she had found in the backstage area.

"Violet Amelia Holt.. where are you?  Come out and play...."

Alexandra laughed a little her eyes focused on the camera in front of her.

"Ms. Holt.. You seem to be playing the biggest game of hide and seek.. but guess what.. I'll do whatever I must to make sure that I fulfill my destiny.  You see.. tonight I will defeat you.. then I will go on to face my next opponent and once again, I'll stand in the ring with Mike Hawk and Cleo Philips and this time.. I will make sure that I walk out of the ring at Dishonored with the World Championship.  I will take the crown that is rightfully MINE.  Right now.. you are in my way.  They say that we all set out on a path when we start this business and from time to time.. we cross paths with each other."

She sat down, taking a moment to stare into the camera, thinking over her next words.

"Your path didn't just cross mine.. it's interrupted it.  YOU are a road block.  Just as the past few weeks have been.  But.. we are past those now.. I've tasted blood and now.. it's like an addiction.  Anyone who gets in my path now.. will know the true meaning of pain.  NO one can do what I have done, what I've been doing.  No one is prepared for the person I really am.  Last Riot.. you all got a taste of just what I can do.. now.. you'll feel the flames of HELL when I come from you and that time.. is drawing close.  Ms Holt.. do you feel that?  The cold breath of obscurity.. as he breaths upon your neck.  YOU ARE NOTHING..  You lost to Devon and ran.. I've defeated him.. true.. it was a tag match.. but given the chance to face him one on one.. I would have ended his reign.  I don't care about winning titles anymore.. this.."

She let out a small laugh, cold and it never reached her eyes.

"this.. is about spilling blood until I get what I want.  Soon.. you all will see.. just what I have been building.. Until then.. enjoy the blood..."

She cut the feed.

Locker Room

Alexandra had been sitting in her locker room, relaxed before her match against Victoria Holt. It was as if all the warmth had been sucked from the room, it got dark quickly and she heard his voice once more.  This time.. it was less cold, warmer.. and inviting.

"Well, well..."

A small smile crossed her lips before she spoke.

"Still disappointed.."

She looked around, the shadow in the darkness moved around a little, almost like a tiger in a cage.

"I gave you blood.."

"Disappointed? Not at all. Quite the contrary, in fact; we are impressed with you, Alexandra. THIS is what we wanted - what you COULD BE. There is only one piece remaining before you can claim your rightful crown... are you willing to shed your final shackles?"

She paused, looking around one last time, before she looked forward as if entranced by the words the disembodied voice spoke. She felt herself kneeling on the floor, hands resting on her knees.

"Yes.. I am ready.."

She nodded.

"I am ready to take the final steps.."

"Then rise, Queen of Darkness, and unleash your true self upon the world!"

She chuckled from where she knelt.

"Is that really the last step? Is there nothing more you need me to prove to you?"

She looked at where she saw the figure moving before her.

"Well, it is not yet time for you to claim the Title that you seek... for the moment, I only require proof that you are worthy of it. That you SEEK it for the right REASONS. You've drawn blood, but your mind cannot be clouded by an obsession with chasing THEIR accolades, or abiding by THEIR rules; prove to me tonight that you are unhindered by such mortal constraints - that you will do ANYTHING to see this darkness spread."

She listened her eyes closing for a few moments.  She knew that he spoke the truth. Whoever this voice was, her demon.. he knew the real her.

"You have already paid your debt of blood... tonight, you will bring me carnage."

She nodded, opening her eyes and staring forward, trying to make out his form in the darkness.

"As you wish, my demon.."

She focused on the voice, how cold it had once sounded, now at this very moment it had changed, becoming warm and inviting, luring her in as if some siren of the deep.

"Tonight you shall have the carnage you long for. That carnage you seek, will come  and it will be at my hands that it happens.."

Once again, the darkness seemed to shift around her, and somewhere in the back of her psyche, a chilling, devilish smile blossomed in the shadow.

"Good."

She nodded, a smile crossed her lips, to match the voices own smile.

"Tonight.. the carnage I unleash.. shall be for the glory of the darkness..."

Outside her room, a figure stood, hearing her speak.  Rathedon burst through the door, sending her into a fit of laughter.  She looked at him, tilting her head. 

"Alexandra.. what's gotten into you?"

She smiled yet her eyes did not meet his.

"Whatever could you mean Michael.. I am still me.."

He shook his head. 

"No.. No this is not you.. Who were you talking to.."

From the darkness she could feel her demon's eyes on her.

"I spoke to no one.. only myself.."

She could feel the warmth of her demons smile from here.

"You are full of it Alexandra.. I heard two distinct voices.. don't lie to me.."

"How could anyone have escaped without you seeing them? Look around.. do you see anyone other than us in this room?"

She motioned around them from where she had still been kneeling on the floor. She rose to her feet, smiling at Rathedon.

"It was just me.."

From the shadows she could see him a smile crossing his features, her own smile reflected his as she hugged Rathedon, watching as the shadow figure escaped through the open door.
