She was sweeping the ring when Astrid approached her looking a little concerned as she leaned up on the ring apron.
“Vakker, you don't have to do this…I know you’re angry but I can…”
Pandora interrupted Astrid as she moved over and looked into her lovers face.
“No, not this time Astrid, please let me have this one it just …hurts so much.”
Astrid's features softened as Pan leaned between the ropes and stole a kiss , it wasn't the same as it usually was but hr lover’s heart had been burned and there was only so many things that could put out the fire of years of what could be seen as injustice.
“He’s got it coming Astrid, they all do..I swear I do that and I'm back ok? They’ve given us what we both want, he wants this, so do I.”
Astrid spoke with a not their hands connecting even as she was still shaky, but the recovery has as ever been faster than expected.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you this fired up.”
That broke the rage she was holding close for a few moments as Pan sat crossed legged in the ring now leaning on the rope as she kept speaking emotion as ever coursing through every word.
“I can’t be an NPC anymore Astrid, I can’t just sit on the side lines and i don;t intend to come back on my shield if I get a chance to lay the hurt on the people I see as responsible for this? I will.”
“Revenge isn’t you.”
Pan sighed a bit and closed her eyes.
“The gods demand retribution. I let one injustice slide…I can’t let this one go… I can’t So I’m going to open my soul at him. The storm will pass Astrid my love… But right now? Blood begets blood.”
Astrid nodded even as she stroked the other woman’s face, the intense stare that lay there the beat of her heart she could feel was a constant war drum, they kissed again once, twice and embraced.
“Do you think he’ll listen?”
Pan let loose a very long sigh as she styled there and her arms shook as she clung onto Astrid like an anchor to the world.
“I hope so, this might be the only way he listens , heart to hearts don;t work, according to Devlin, he sees it as a game, a challenge he’s been burned too.”
“Vakker, you don't have to do this…I know you’re angry but I can…”
Pandora interrupted Astrid as she moved over and looked into her lovers face.
“No, not this time Astrid, please let me have this one it just …hurts so much.”

Astrid shook her head and they kept their foreheads together.
“Show them you haven’t missed a step, Regnbuen min.”
Pandora would blow a strand of blue hair out of her face as she nodded.
“They won’t know what hit ‘m.”
They kissed again, but the flame kept burning.
She looks at life like it's a party and she's on the list
She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over it
I think her ever present frown is a little troubling
And, she thinks I'm psycho
'Cause I like to rhyme her name with things, but
Sophistication isn't what you wear, or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Oh they didn't teach you that in prep school
So it's up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity
(Think about what you did)
“Dean, You’ve wanted two things in your life, freedom and love.”
The UV lights that surround the form light up face paint and lipstick, Pandora’s eyes remained closed as she glows in the dark.
“I remember when you were happy Dean, I remember the smile on your face when you were stood next to the Pack, when in the ring faced with what others would call destruction you smiled at it, embraced it. Where most dabbled in the dark you swam in it drowned in the blood you bled ordained by God himself to be a vessel.”
She stays sat and rubs under her nose and sighs a bit.
“I remember the apology you gave me when Spike died. I remember looking into your eyes and knew then it was an accident, but there was a lack of something back there, the best parts of you had started To wither away when Maxine died. Damien’s your only link to your love and you’re in danger of losing him too Dean… and you don’t see it. You don’t see what Warren’s going to do, what Warren is willing to do.”
She looked down picking at laces of her converse head crooking form side to side as she looked at the rainbow reflected by the lights that surrounded her.
“You’re a legend in your own time Dean, a cautionary warning, a Keyser Soze in the flesh and you embrace the hate, it’s all you know it’s all you want to know. The people who love... loved you they fade away because you keep pushing and pushing but the problem is? You fall into that toxic bullshit, trust me babe I know it…I know how persuasive the Kane charisma is.”
She took another shaky breath.
“I know this business is rough and tumble, I know there’s ways to go about this I always faced my foes face to face, hell so did Row Row, we might not have agreed on much but i always admire her courage, I admire her Hope, much as she denies it I know that women is capable of great love, even if it’s for her own purposes, but I understand the need for love it makes you do crazy things.”
She draws a pattern on the floor with UV paint slowly as she muttered to herself.
“Impossible things.”
A pentagonal shield glowing up at her and then she looks up as a dangerous air seems to suddenly fall on her face, she wasn’t smiling any more as her eyes open now staring down the barrel of the camera.
“But you came after one of the most precious things to me, to my life and you came after her so hard she was laid up in hospital, she heals quickly so let me assure you I’m not emotional about the husband…Accidents happen and it -was- an accident.”
She straightened a little more.
“But you made the choice to ambush Astrid, you made the choice to assault her, you made the choice to rub it in everyone's faces at how adept you are at betrayal and how Warren pushed you into it so you could have one more chance you knew was already doomed.”
She shook her head long and slow.
“Warren really does take after his dad, he can twist the knife like nobody else he’d be so..Proud at the man he’s become.”
A smirk thinking about that image.
“It’s like he never left in a way, sins of the father indeed.”
She blew a shaky breath.
“The better man, I see through you Kidd I see through you both and still…You made a choice.”
A long, long pause.
“You opened this box and you have no idea…NO idea what is coming Because I’m in your blind spot.”
She considers her words even as she shifts on the spot.
“Happy, forgiving, ever full of hope Pandora, the lighthouse in the storm ,a beacon in the dark.”
She said her next line with a bit more force.
“Burning the shadows away when its eye turns on you, Rainbows are refractions but light burns and it burns pure. You attacked MY WIFE.”
She was still staring at the camera.
“I know Maxine is watching this and she’ll be hoping I get through to you Dean she’ll be hoping my next few actions are seen and heard this isn’t for titles. This isn't for the integrity of the sport this isn’t even for the IWF fans. No, I'm doing this because it’s right and it’s fair and it’s no less than you Deserve. You and yours.”
She leaned close to the camera, a fire burning in her eyes.
“I’m not just coming for the pup, Dean..I’m coming for the leash and collar, I’m not going to destroy your world, that's already happening to you. you’re in the fire sitting at your cup and saying ‘this is fine’ but it’s NOT FINE Dean.”
The UV starts to highlight tears as she grips the camera with both hands and shifts to her knees.
“But this is the only way you’ll ever listen. It’s the only thing you understand, and I can’t keep watching…I can’t. So this…This is my Manifesto.”
She breathes again, rubbing under her nose again.
“Rob, I know you’re just here to make sure it doesn’t go too far, but …seriously after everything after EVERYTHING you of all people claim the high ground?”
She has to laugh a little to herself and sighs.
“I guess there is some hope for us all, flirt with Dean all you like Rob. get in my way and I’ll give you a piece too, you’re just as guilty as the rest of them, Just as bitter just as aggrandizing, I guess the only difference is you’re honest about it, you spit in my face with every breath. If you’d ever given a damn you might have called, might have show up after the funeral, Might given more than your two cents and then fucked off in the wind like every one has.”
She manages a sniffle as her emotions start to overcome her again something between anger sorrow, determination and rage as she kept talking the world flowing from her like a faucet.
“Me and Astrid had to spend the rest of our lives untangling the legal mess Spike left behind, and I was shunned quietly by the rest of them, people Who I called colleagues, friends, hell indirectly family None of them helped happy to cash in on that name when they could have done something ….real…and then she gets a call, to go back into the fight…”
She looked up with a soft smile.
“Of course I wasn't going to stop her, I warned to be careful, if anything I thought Rowan and Brooklyn would twist it, it was just another worthy battle to Astrid…and Then again I’m by her beside, at home with Hope wondering if I'll get a call wondering if i’d have to bury another body…”
She sniffles and closes her eyes as the lights flicker a bit, recovering herself steeling her nerves to breath shakily.
“I’m not a problem, or the problem…I’m now your fucking problem. Verona, God Not even the spirit of Maxine Valentine or Spike Kane is going to stop me getting my pound of flesh, the box is open now, you opened it you and yours. and I’m coming for you.”
A pause and she nods the makeup stained on her features as she looks into the camera.
“I have such sights to show you.”
Fade out.
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but haven't you heard
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but I'll always get the last word
Whoa
Well howdy there pardner.
