 OOC: Shaun! You need to be on when I do this, I hope I played Erik alright hehe xxCARBON COPY Coping with the loss that was something she didn't really see coming was hard for Addison. She was doing it in her own way. A visit back home and then simply taking the belt from Ambika. It seemed all too drastic but Addison felt it was with it's rightful owner now. Addison wanted the title back though for good and she found that her upcoming match with Blair Brooks would be more than a good place to show she could handle that. Blair Brooks was a girl that went off of the fashions of a WWE diva, named Melina. It was obvious that the two had something in common. Blair had deemed herself the "Queen of Hollywood" while Melina had called herself the "A-list diva". Blair's obvious type was very common the girl that thinks she's better for no reasons at all. That type was one that Addison had grown to dislike. There weren't a lot of things to like about that type of a person but there was an immense amount of them in the business that Addison had put herself in. She was dealing with it and putting more effort into trying not to conform to what they were. Blair was a girl that seemed to be extremely high maintenance and maybe that could turn well for Addison when they stepped into the ring. Blair would be too busy worrying about her make-up or if she looked okay doing a move. Addison was the complete opposite of those types of girls in fact. Addison was a down to earth girl just looking to get the job done. There were many different types of women and in the CPW that was conspicuous. Addison felt she could leave the business unchanged but maybe she was wrong in thinking that she was already starting to form into something. Not something to the likes of Blair just something a little different than herself. I wasn't something that was going horribly wrong either. She was simply becoming more aware of what it really ment to be in a promotion and she was growing with every week. She had learned how to complete a commerical and a shoot for a commercial rather than for the CPW itself. Addison enjoyed where her life was going and giving it up wasn't even close to a thought in her mind. Addison fidgeted her fingers, as they lay intertwined together on her lap. The wind in the park blew softly. It was getting colder out but Central park was still a beautiful place. Her attention was drawn towards the tree that sat in front of her. She was taken back by the beauty of the turning leaves, they were turning slightly into beautiful colors of orange, red, and yellow. Fall was becoming very evident with the crisp air. Addison took in a breath feeling to coldness in her nose. She looked back down to the ground, which was still green like the summer. She couldn't remember the last time that she felt this good about just a day in the park. Addison quickly looked to a puppy that was jumping up on her leg. It was a golden retriever puppy and the cutest of its kind. Addison smiled and reached down lifting the dog up to her lap. She found happiness in having this innocent little dog. She lifted the dog above her head and brought it down towards her face kissing its face. She then set the pup down on her legs she stroked him with a smile. She was interrupted by a calming voice and one that was rather familiar. Erik Banks; Hello gorgeous. Addison looked up to him with a smile. Addison Sky; Good you're here. I'm bursting with opinions and no one to share them with. Erik laughed a little bit before getting closer to Addison. Her leaned over giving her a kiss and then sat down on the bench next to her. He looked down seeing the puppy and petted him. Erik Banks; He's already getting bigger. Addison Sky; I know isn't he adorable. Addison lifted the dog back into the air as she scrunched her nose at the cuteness of the puppy. She then set the pup down on the ground holding the leash tightly in her hand as he roomed around their feet sniffing. Erik Banks; So what's up? Addison gave Erik a look that was almost a look or relief. She leaned over towards Erik who wrapped his arm around her. She smiled, as she got closer to him to warm up a little bit. Addison Sky; This match on Combat that I have against Blair is something that is going to allow me to redeem myself in losing the title to Ambika Renton. I suppose that I should really stop trying to go off of impressing other people though and grow into my own skin. I've been changing because of the CPW and I really can't decide if I like it or not. I've been pushing myself harder than ever and I've only had two matches. Blair isn't someone that I know personally nor have I seen her at all around the hallways but what I know about her is enough. She's the same type of girl that you see everywhere. She's bitchy and she thinks she's the best. Nothing new to deal with I suppose. I'm not exactly certain of Blair's dedication to the CPW but I'm hoping that she shows up to Combat. I'm not going to win this match by forfeit that's just embarrassing. You know how that is then everyone just assumes you would lose if your opponent didn't show up and never truly consider it a real match. Then again I can't say I would think of it as a real match either just an easier win. I think that I can handle someone like Blair, from what I've seen anyways. There's always a lot more than what I see though ya know? Erik Banks; You really think things out too much. Erik laughed a little bit as Addison looked up to him with a grin. It was a true statement there wasn't a second of Addison's life when she wasn't thinking about wrestling. It wasn't because she had nothing better to do with life it was just the simple fact that she loved it so much. She was not okay with the thought of going down in flames and wouldn't let it happen she would always plan out a strategy and stick to it in order to win the match at hand. Addison Sky; I don't think people really understand me. It's odd because when you're the girl that is nice people look at you weird unless you're Ambika Renton. It's almost getting hard for me to stay nice. I'm not sure how this is going to go for me but I'm planning to rip into Blair the second she steps into that squared circle and I'm not going to show any mercy. Gandhi once said, "Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will." I can't say that I disagree with those words. It almost defines me in a way. You can have all the strength in the world but if you don't have that will to keep going and to not let your losses set you back then you're not going to make it. I don't know about Blair but my will is strong. I am going to push her to extremes and she probably won't be able to handle it. I think that Blair is rather one sided actually, materialistic. I mean if that much isn't obvious to ones eyes then they should probably get their eyes checked out. Blair is a carbon copy of everything that is the female persona in many promotions. I don't think she'll start to realize what she's getting into until I'm in the ring with her. I feel so strongly about this match that I'm starting to sound self-absorbed. I guess it comes with the territory in some sense. Winning a title in your first match can really knock you off your feet. Addison looked down to her hands, which seemed to be fidgeting again. It was a habit of Addisons. She smiled as she looked up to Erik he seemed interested in what she had to say. He was used to her talking and talking about a match. Once she got her head stuck on one it didn't leave. She pouted her lips and he gave her another kiss. She looked forward again and down at the puppy who was sniffing around Erik's feet. Erik Banks; Addy, you have things under control you just need to focus more. Addison Sky; I am focused, I'm always focused. I get out there every week and I put my all into it. I never regret a match, I don't want to have to regret one either. I might win and maybe not but no matter what I'm going to get into that ring with everything I have and prove that I deserve to be amoung these ranks. If people have lost sight of what real wrestling is in this place then that's sad. I do believe I am the true representation though, of what is real wrestling. People who go out with one goal in mind every week to do their best. I'm not about winning everytime cause you can't learn anything from winning every week. What does it really mean to have a perfect record too? That you've reached something great that you were lucky enough to beat your opponents week in and week out? No, that doesn't say anything about you as a wrestler. I'm a strong believer in chance and it's chance that your opponent might be really on the week before and then off the next. Winning isn't everything in this though it's more about doing something that is fun, entertaining and all that jazz. Not becoming a boring shell of a person by winning every week and boring the fans, becoming rather predictable. I'm sure as hell not predictable when I get into that ring. I preach something everyweek about keeping your cool and not getting too cocky or too far ahead of yourself, but when I step into that ring I can show it and in different ways everytime. While I don't like when people consider themselves to be far better than others for reasons unknown I have a cocky side. Sometimes you need to in order to win. However I believe that confidence can very easily be treated and seen as cockiness. I won't get into all that mumbo jumbo but people need to start to recognize who I am and why I'm here. It isn't because I just want to build up my accomplishments by winning the Bloodsport championship. It isn't about building my winning record. It's about being in that ring it's about staying true to myself even when things get hard. I'm here for the people that love this kind of stuff and personally I don't like people that are here simply for themselves. They don't understand that true concept of what I consider to be sports entertainment. Then again they can blab all they want about being something more than just a vision for the fans to fall in love with, or hate rather but when it comes down to it we're all in it for the same thing. Passion. Addison shrugged her shoulders. Erik was a little taken back by the sheer passion that was coming from Addison's words. He cracked a smile. Erik Banks; Alright! You're focused I get it. I'll let you win this argument but next time don't expect to win. Addison laughed a little with Erik. Addison Sky; I'm that kinda girl Erik, you know that. I'm always pushing the passion card. It's just what I do. Erik nodded his head in agreement as Addison giggled a little bit. Erik Banks; It's freezing can we get a cup of joe? Addison sat back up to look at Erik. Addison Sky; Of course, that sounds wonderful. It was amazing how Addison's confidence boosted when she talked to Erik about her matches. She had thoughts in her head that could stop flowing from her mouth when she talked to Erik and it was a good thing. It allowed Addison to see the pros and cons about the match and clear her head along with getting a gameplan. Addison smiled at Erik. He got to his feet and reached down picking up the puppy that had nested itself by Addison's feet. She got up shortly after. Addison linked her arm around Erik's and the couple made their way down the path of central park. |
