Standing outside a long dead and gone business of some sort in downtown Atlanta we find Dax and Ailyn Darrington. Her immediate family of Rixton, Violet, and Lia Ruin flanking them on either side. The place is rather run down and in need of major renovations. The littlest of the bunch is the first to speak up. She pokes Dax in the side to get his attention. She gives him the come here gesture with her little pointer finger. She whispers in his ear.
Lia: What do you think Bikini Bitches Bar and Social Club means, Bestie?
That's exactly what it says on the filthy exterior where the sign used to be. Dax's eyes widened as the ten year old just said a curse word towards him.
Dax: I'll explain it to you when you're older, Sweetie.
He chuckles.
Dax: You should ask your sister that question.
Knowing “Bitches” is kind of a curse word the devious girl grins.
Lia: Do you think she'll tattle on me?
Dax: There's only one way to find out.
Lia winks at her brother-in-law and happily goes over to her sister and asks the same question. Ai snaps her gaze to her husband.
Ailyn: Did you put her up to that babe?
Dax: Well she asked me about it first and didn't know how to answer her. I think that's a sister thing.
The very petite girl is looking up at Ailyn with quizzical eyes.
Ailyn: Parentals, your youngest daughter wants to know what the name of the previous tenants means.
Rixton: Well, I'm not touching that with a ten foot pole. Sweetie, wanna take this one?
Violet: Not today, we'll explain it to you when you're older, little love.
Lia flies off the handle like most children that are a decade old do when they don't get their way.
Lia: BEING TEN SUCKS!! You never get to hear the coolest stuff because you're “Too young”!!
She uses quotation fingers like her sister does all the time when she tries to make light of an important part of a sentence. Just on time as it was 9:30 am Ai's phone rings. She has personalized ringtones for every person on her contract list and the one is “Through the Fire and Flames” by DragonForce. The entire group knows who's calling as this song is also his entrance music. Ailyn's face lights up as she answers the call.
Ailyn: Hey Trav, what's up this fine morning?
Trav: I’m doing alright, Probie. Kicking back with some fine caffeinated goodness. How’s Atlanta?
Ailyn: It's really freaking great having my family back together again! We're standing outside the building my family has bought for our next step in life. We'd like you to come here and have a meeting with us to discuss all of our futures?
Travis: Alright. I’ll start looking into flights. You certainly have my curiosity peaked. And I’m glad you have your family back. Family’s too important to lose.
Ai smiles and giggles before kissing Dax on the cheek. Travis can clearly hear the sound of the kiss happening.
Ailyn: That sounds really good, Trav. I'm very excited to give you the news we've already talked about! It absolutely will be worth your time and money to come out for this meeting. I promise!
Travis: Yeah yeah. Go sort out the details and I’ll be in Atlanta tomorrow.
Ailyn: That sounds like a plan. Hit me up when you know the deets and I'll be certain to come and scoop you up from the airport! Is Desi coming??
Travis: Yeah. I can bring her with me. She likes coming for trips with her Dad still. Figure I’ve got like……a year of that before she gets too bored and just wants to stay home.
Ailyn: I think you might be surprised by how much she loves and adores you, Trav I really think you will be as tight with her as me and my Pop are! You've done a fantastic job with her buddy, she's an awesome and sweet girl!!
Travis: I can’t take too much credit. She didn’t live with me for over half her life. But I’m very proud of how she turned out for sure.
Ailyn: Well, we're about to go in and preview the building. Don't forget to get your flight plans. Just a sec.
Ai gets a tap on her shoulder from her mother. Violet whispers in her daughter's ear.
Ailyn: My mother just said not to make hotel plans because you and Desi can stay in the Parentals guest house. I'll live stream the walk through to you if you want the experience with us! Okay??
Travis: You got it, Ai. Let your folks know I appreciate it. And send me the video of the walk through. I’m heading off to make plans and make sure Desi packs her bags, but we’ll see you tomorrow.
Ailyn: We look forward to having an awesome weekend and if you two want I have a show for this relaunching Fed called Blood and Nation. I'd love to have Desi and yourself join us. The cool thing about this place is you never know what you match is until you're in the ring! What a cool concept??
Travis: Stanton ran the AI controlled Federation a few years back. Good luck and We’ll see you soon, Probie!
When Ai gets off the phone it's almost perfect timing, because that realtor shows up to do the walkthrough the Ruin/Darrington's are there for. Upon the family's approval and building expectations they should have a home for the training center they all want to open for themselves and to train in the manner they feel without Rylee's madness influencing the direction of the company. Hence the reason why Rixton and Violet separated from TRIOCS. And, deep inside why Ailyn was so eager to leave Seattle. As promised Ai video chats with Trav as they tour the building and the last tenant was clearly a bar and strip club. While the walk through commences Lia makes it her mission to find as many dollar bills as she can after finding one near the stage. By the end of that personal inspection the little girl finds nine dollars and sixty eight cents.
Lia: Hey this place is great look how much money I found, Dax!
Dax: You might want to give that to your parents as this is really theirs. And, you never know where that money's been.
Lia: Why, they have more money than anybody that's not Mema or Auntie Ry-Ry. I'm keeping it because I'm poor right now!
Dax chuckles at the naivety of his sister-in-law as she runs off to explore some places she hasn't seen yet. Over at the stage Ai and her parents are talking to the realtor and they shake all of their hands before handing over the keys.
Ailyn: Hey babes, come over here please?
Dax: Yeppers babe.
The four adults have a serious conversation while the ten year old continues to explore her new playground.
Rixton: So stage one is complete we secured a building where we wanted. With some major renovations this place will become the premier training center in the southeast!
Violet: You are so cute when in business mode, Honey! But, you most certainly correct that we have lightning in a bottle here and I know with the four of you running the classes all will be fantastic, lovies!!
Ailyn: It's really gonna have to be mostly you two that take up most of the classes because Trav and my schedules are bonkers right now.
Rixton: We're very aware of that little love, Dax and I got this, right bud?
Dax: You know it, Boss Man! Speaking of busy schedules you got that new dinosaur luchador guy in NEW right?
Ailyn: That's right he barely showed up so it's kinda hard to gauge his skills when I watched the show back on the flight home.
Rixton: Well the best part about Lucha’s is that they're all pretty similar. I see this being a fast and flashy contest, which you do with the best of them. But, my suggestion is not to give him what he wants cause your phenomenal ground game will be something he won't be able to match, Just sayin'.
Everyone chuckles when he says his daughters catchphrase.
Ailyn: No you're right, Daddy-O… anyways I was thinking about the name and I kinda think we should bring back an oldie but goodie?
Violet: Let me guess… DNA?
Ailyn: I've loved it since I was an infant in my training. It's the coolest name ever!! Dawn of the New Age…
Dax: What's that? Ohh, I see what you're inadvertently doing, Babes. Are you wanting to poke at Ry-Ry already?
Ai looks away and giggles.
Ailyn: I'd hope inside her she'd be happy?
Violet: Sorry, I'm not sure that person exists anymore, Luv.
Just then a strange ring tone assaults their ears. It sounds kinda like old dial up connection tones. It's coming from Ai's mobile so she checks to see what's making such a terrible noise.
Ailyn: That's annoying!
Dax: It's coming from you, Babe.
When the Silly Girl checks she sees that the AI generated authority of Blood and Nation is requesting her presence for the second installment of them running its return to simulations.
Ailyn: We need to be in Virginia for that weird booking style Stanton is doing, guys. Tomorrow night!
Dax: Tomorrow night, that's just like that pretentious A-hole to give you one day's notice?!?
Ailyn: He claims it's all randomly generated and he has no control of what happens. Who knows I could be booked in a World Championship Match, wouldn't that be cool?
Rixton: In my day there's no way a computer would be booking matches. What has this world come to?
Violet: Automation is everywhere, Honey. I'm booking the charter flight right now!
Violet sends out an invite to the group chat of people tied to the school and everyone but Arsyn West and her girlfriend Andi responds with “Coming”. Later that night at the show in the second contest Ai gets the biggest surprise of her life and her dream is manifested and she's chosen for a World title match against Mack “Big Rig” Johnson. It's a good hard fought match just as Ailyn was getting the upper hand Big Rig did the stupidest thing. Things were not going his way so whilst on the outside after trying to catch his breath Johnson hit her with a steel chair. The AI has no tolerance for breaking the rules and any loss is absolute. So, with that violation the match is stopped immediately and Ailyn's named the victor becoming new BAN World Champion in the most unexpected way possible!! Dumbfounded but ecstatic the eighteen year old celebrates for a few minutes with the few folks in attendance before making her way backstage and is first met by her husband who's just excited for his lady as she is!
Dax: Hey, my cutie wife!
Ailyn: Look what I got, babes!
Hands the BAN World Champion to her husband. She hugs him crying her eyes out.
Ailyn: Look what WE did, My Love!!
He rubs her back and kisses her forehead
Dax:Don't cry babe, I'm so proud of you!!
Ailyn: How can't I, babes??
Ai looks at Dax with very happy tears still in her eyes.
Ailyn: It dawned on me on the exit that I might be the youngest World Champion on the planet??
Dax: Also, the sexiest in my opinion.
Ailyn:You're too cute for words baby.
She kisses her husband sweetly.
Dax: Even with your one pack.
He teases his wife about the conversation they had on the flight about Ai’s cute stomach where she called it a one pack.
Ailyn: You love it!!
She takes the title belt back and puts it around her waist in a slight self-conscious moment .
Ailyn: I want you to make love to me wearing only this…
She smacks her newly won belt!!
Dax: I kind of knew you were gonna say that!
He kisses her on the cheek and smacks the Silly Girl’s butt as the rest of her entourage joins the couple. Ai has a moment of joy and an embrace with her immediate family when little Lia notices Dax isn’t in the hug and pulls him into it as he belongs there too.
Lia: What do you think Bikini Bitches Bar and Social Club means, Bestie?
That's exactly what it says on the filthy exterior where the sign used to be. Dax's eyes widened as the ten year old just said a curse word towards him.
Dax: I'll explain it to you when you're older, Sweetie.
