12th June, 2017 - We Can Be Heroes
Today is bittersweet. Yāknow, because whilst Iām real happy that Iām still Shield Maiden, and that my second reign with this championship didnāt end as abruptly as my first reign didā¦.it just didnāt go the way I would have liked. Yes, I āwonā Yes I defended my championship, and bested Rowan, but does it really end the conflict?
Does it really drive that nail into the coffin?
The obvious answer is no. Despite my confidence, despite my passion, I still didnāt really defeat the beast of a woman that Rowan is, but you know what? Why should I be the one defending myself? Why should I be the one trying to defend my victory? The fact of the matter remains that I DID beat Rowan, AGAIN. This is the one constant in your little one sided vendetta Rowan, by nook, or by crook, I always come out on top. Whether itās making you pass out in the middle of the ring, or winning by count outā¦.it doesnāt matter, Iām still doing the one thing youāre not capable of doing.
Winning.
Youāre finding out that Iām not so easily beaten Rowan, that my spirit, my drive, and my passion are much stronger than you believed. My heart demands that I get back up, that no matter what knocks me down, I Get! Back! Up! Nothing you have done has stopped me from doing what I love doing, from going out there, and performing for the fans, giving them something, someone to believe in.
You see me Rowan, and you see someone who stands tall, someone who the people define as a hero. Someone who stands up for what she believes in, for what she thinks is right, a slayer of monsters if you will...and instead of agreeing, or even disagreeing, you see it as a challenge, you see it as a personal slight against you. Yet it couldnāt be further from the truth, the only time things have been personal for me in this ring? Was with Eternity, and that is because she broke my armā¦
I came back, and I slayed that dragon.
Do you really think Iām scared of you because youāre so big and strong? Because you literally throw your weight around? After so long, you start to believe the stories the children speak about you, and you most definitely believe your own hype Rowanā¦
Maybe itās time I started to believe my own, and showed the world what a hero really does.
And put you down for good.

The hangover made her feel groggy, almost as if she was moving through pudding. Still, it was a great change of pace, venue, and had some surprising moments. She felt Will move and was suddenly bathed in sunlight. She made a hissing sound and pulled the covers over her head.
Will - Yeeeaahā¦.you probably shouldnāt have hit the liquor so bad last night, huh?
A groan was all that left her mouth as she tried to bury herself under the blankets, but she could tell that Will wasnāt too happy. So eventually she pulled her head out, her orange hair all over the place, and pouted at him.
Shea - ā¦.wasswrong?
Will lowers his head, clearly still not feeling too great after recent events, but something else is on his mind.
Will - I just canāt believe you went drinking with Spike Kaneā¦
Shea sighed and groaned, rolling her head around, she understood what Will was saying, and where he was coming from, but he had it wrong.
Shea - Honey, it wasnāt like that. Look, I went out with the girls, Astrid and Pan. Astrid wanted a place she could get some Meadā¦.and I knew a little place, off the beaten path. None of us knew he was gonna frigginā show up...AND SING WITH A GOD DAMN GUITAR AND EVERYTHING!
Will - Wait, he sings?
Shea - ā¦.to his credit, yeah, pretty well.
She sits up in the bed now, as Will glances over, still standing in front of the window, looking out at Manchester City.
Will - I donāt get itā¦.the guy, heās..
Shea - An asshole, yeah. No shit Will. I know, but...trust me, that Pandora? She has an effect on him, and itās no surprise, sheās a hell of a woman. So is Astrid!
Will - I aināt worried about you beinā safe. I know you can look after yerself, āspecially with those two with you.
Shea - I would never do something to upset you Will, I promise. Iād never hurt you, in any way.
As she talks she climbs from the bed, and walks towards him, embracing him as she does. He leans in and hugs her, before recoiling back, with a slight look of disgust.
Will - Oh! Damn girl, you need a shower!
Shea - Oh hush.
She punches him in the arm, but Will plays it up and holds his nose, waving his hand in front of his face.
Shea - Whatever! It was a great night, totally worth it!
She chuckles out loud as she heads towards the bathroom, possibly for a shower. Will smiles after her, but once she leaves his smile fades, and he turns to glance back out over the Manchester sky line. Clearly, Will has a lot on his mind.

16th June, 2017 - Trust
It fills me with so much PRIDE knowing that Iāll be teaming with my Shield Sister against this week. There are often many discussions about the cutthroat nature of this business, and the so-called āshark infested watersā however, to have found someone who I can literally trust my life with - fills me with happiness. The team of Astrid Hall and Shea OāHara is going to march into that ring again on Sacrifice, and walk out the champions we are, because even though she might not hold any gold - Astrid has proven herself to be a champion, one of honour, respect, and of the heart too.
I mean, the woman stood toe to toe with Spike Kane - sheās mental!
Which is something that Alicia doesnāt have on her side. Oh yeah Miss Lukas, I know youāve got a big behemoth on your team, but sheās wild, untamed, and I donāt think Iām going too far off to say sheās pretty crazy too. Plus, you know, she doesnāt exactly have the best record in tag teams matches that instills trust for a partnerā¦
Right?
You and me though? We locked up not too long ago, and I was proud of that match, I was very proud of that victory because you pushed me, and got me to the level I needed to be at to beat Eternity. Something, nobody else seemed capable of doing, but here I stand, and now here you are again. I hold no ill will towards you Alicia, you know that, I have nothing but respect for you, nothing but respect for what youāre capable of.
I just canāt trust anyone who would willingly team with Rowan.
I donāt pretend to know how your mind works Alicia, and I donāt presume to know what youāre planning to get out of this, all I know is that Iāve learned that this business does have some snakes, that these waters do have some sharksā¦.and Iām not prepared to let myself get bit. Iāll give you everything I gave you in our last match, and hope that we can keep it clean. I hope we can put on another masterclass for the world to watch, for the girls out there to see how it should be doneā¦
I just hope you donāt let me down.
With Astrid at my back? Of course I feel confident. We have a bond forged in battle, a sisterhood unlike any other in IWF, and Iād go to hell itself for that womanā¦.and I guess getting in the ring with Rowan is close enough, especially with someone as competent and skilled as Alicia backing her up. Either way, itās going to be tough, itās going to be one hell of a battleā¦.but as Astrid might sayā¦
Til Valhall!
