beast, harlot and the double edged sword(melwasul)

[Emily Thorne]

Emily's theme bursts over the PA System, provoking a mixed reaction from the crowd. Some were sympathetic of her burial at the hands of lessien two weeks ago, some were still not happy with her so-called "heel" tactics she used again lessien, some just couldn't choose. The emotions of the fans were of no use to her at this point, as her own were getting out of control. She still wanted to toy with lessien, but with the show she put on two weeks ago, she was starting to become worried.

Oh lover giiiiiiiiiiiirl, where are you?
come out come out, I want to play too
and when we fight
on this glorious night
you will be a ghost in the night, going boo.

[Lessien Melwasul]

~The form of Lessien appears to a unified howl of protest against the burning light and mind. The face betrays nothing. The mirrors of her soul always covered and shrouded by

thick

black

lenses. She scans the sea with a dead face until her focus seems to lock on the ring and the broken little toy that keeps saying her name again, again and again.~

"Say my name."

~Alice hisses into the microphone as their music fades away. The form of Lessien begins to pace the stage, choosing not to join Emily in the ring.~

"The question is, why? What do you want from me that you can't get from stepping in front of a Las Vegas Tour bus?"

"Herstory."

"You barely make the pages, Lover. So then my question changes."

~The form of Lessien stops its pacing and places the question dead center.~

"What could I possibly want from a young, broken, little thing like you?"

[Emily Thorne]

Broken? oh lover, haven't you ever heard the quote: Don't confuse a single defeat with a final defeat? Well, this is that situation. Don't doubt me just yet lover, this road has not reached the dead end just yet. I don't want your title, I don't want anything else, but your broken, beat up, fucking body in the middle of this ring. One more time, in this ring, for pride.

[Lessien Melwasul]

"No one has ever choked to death swallowing her pride, Lover. That's a lesson you should've learned last week and taken deep into your broken, loveless little heart.

~The face of Lessien turned back towards the ring, directly.~

"But that wasn't my question. My question was, what do I want from you, and the answer to that is becoming very clear."

~The Cheshire grin showed its edges again as Alice said the magic word.~

"Nothing."

"Your pride doesn't interest me, child and that includes ramming it down your twisted throat. No, I climbed the 4 ladders, Lover and took this by violence you haven't even imagined yet. I'm taking the names one by one while Zhafaria Rouge spreads them fucking wide! I'm the looking glass of Sin City!! I show everyone the truth of fucking time!!"

~The crowd wailed in protest. But, as usual, Lessien remained quite unswayed as her eyes fell back upon Emily. Her voice falling back down as well.~

"I give so much, Lover. So again, I ask you: What's in it for me Emily Thorne? Make the fucking deal or go home."

~The hand of Lessien lowers the microphone and waits for Emily to spin the mental wheel.~

[Emily Thorne]

The Cage lover. The Cage. You still haven't escaped it yet. You can exterminate however many people you want, but you'll still always be a shell of your former self. Yes, two weeks ago I felt your wrath. But has memory faded from your feeble brain so quickly? Just three weeks ago, I left you barely standing, alone, in the ring. After the punishment you took. And it felt so fucking good.

Emily stepped over to the ropes, now looking Lessien eye to eye. Even with the distance between them, you could cut the tension with a knife.

Riddle me this Lessien
There was once a lonely girl
And she lived all alone in the world
One possession she cherished
No one to share the cherishment with
And so there comes along a day
When a new girl comes to play
And when she beats you half to death
And you leave her without breath
..... Well why would you stop the fun just yet?

[Lessien Melwasul]

"So I get a warm feeling inside? Is that it, Lover?"

"Let me count the ways."

"No Thorne, let me count the seconds of sleep I've lost after watching you escape the cage."

"None."

~The Cheshire grin began to spread.~

"You call me a shell? That may very well be. I've been through it all. I've been through things you will never see because times have changed."

"Times have died completely."

"I've been shot, bit, stabbed and literally fucked from one end of this life to the fucking endless. But how about you, hm? What have you done besides dress up like a puppet and rhyme? Have you lived the fucking life??"

"Have you stepped outside?"

"Have you felt the blood mix with rain as you wonder which will stop first!? Have put away the puppet gear and really wrapped your thighs around it, demanding more and getting it? Have you heard the sound after a bullet has torn you to fucking bits and woke to see the sun!? Oh yes, I may be a shell, Lover. But at least I fucking was."

~Lessien was beside herself, pacing and ranting with the rise and fall of her voice. Until an idea struck her and brought her to a stop.~

"Yes, how about you Lover?"

~The idea began to spread.~

"Why don't I take you apart and see what makes you tick, hm? My guess is you are empty. But there is only one way to find out. I will give you a title shot, right now. In the same type of match I took it in: A Ladder Match!"

"She spun her words of glass for all the world to see."

"In exchange for your very self. You lose, you walk by my fucking side and I open your little clockworks up. Servitude, puppet. You'll answer to me. You win? Well, that's obvious now isn't it."

~The smile opened, delighted.~

"Trust me, it's a bargain. It's literally something for nothing, child. Now make your fucking bed, seal the deal or never say my name again."

[Emily Thorne]

Very well then. I agree.

A smirk hidden by the violet covered mask crept up onto her face.

I look forward to taking away your last prized possession lover.

[Lessien Melwasul]

"And I look forward to taking everything, you simple little thing."

~The smile stayed on her face as the form of Lessien turned and walked away.~
