A desk.
Illuminated by a small desk lamp in the dead of night.
Papers litter the workspace in untidy piles, documents unfiled, the desk of a slob, judging by the empty wrappers and discarded pizza boxes and the mucus filled paper towels that really look like they are mutating.
An ash tray overloaded with…ash and discarded cigarettes.
Hands can be seen, picking up some post. An over the shoulder camera angle, briefly obscured by smoke, shows the address and name of the recipient, but this does not matter.
The hairy hands give an indication that this individual is male.
They rip open the padded envelope and they pull out a video cassette tape, with the label:
PLAY ME!
An audible “For fuck sake!” is heard, 99% sure this is a male now, but there is always the off chance…
The figure does off camera and there is a lot of rummaging heard, drawers being opened, cupboard doors slamming before an old TV with VHS recorder built in is placed on the desk, with an audible curse word and groan or two. The click of a power socket. The TV/VHS sparks into life.
“He” pushes the cassette roughly into the slot and presses PLAY.…STATIC…
…WHITE NOISE……A Cloaked Figure… The darkness, along with the sheer bad quality of the footage, or condition of the VCR, who knows, conceals the identity of the humanoid shape we see. A moment or two passes, the cloaked figure speaks, the voice distorted via poor quality like the image, or deliberately, more likely the latter, masking the identity, no clues. *A distorted cackle of glee, followed by a cough* *Sadistic Laugh* ***Evil Cackle*** *clearing of throat* ***Manic laughter echoes for a few minutes*** … … *Silence* … … … ***STATIC***The video stops. The over the shoulder camera angle returns. The left hand reaches for a cheap mobile phone, dials a number we cannot make out and rings audibly, on loud speaker.“Get me the boss, he is gonna want to see this!”Fade to black.

Preparing for a fight is always important, and in the coming week, “Psycho” Saoirse Maguire would need to be prepared for three separate fights. On Sunday, she would face a mystery replacement for Space Lord in the Rise of the Phoenix Tournament Mile High Wrestling. The mystery part was obviously going to make specific preparation and little difficult since there was not even a real pool of candidates from which to pick possibilities.
That would be followed by a match with three other tag teams in a cross-brand match at a pay-per-view event called Youngblood for EWC. The other three teams each presented a different challenge since Lunch Time was a pair of giant hosses named Meat and Tater, The Rising Tide was the current Prime Brand Indy Champion JFS and his large heavy hitter of a partner called Stalker and Bullet Hell were a couple of party guys that seemed to follow an almost Jay and Silent Bob dynamic where the one guy, LEO, tended to get into stuff and his friend and partner, Kid Kitsune, then pulled him out of the fire.
Her third fight of the week would come on the regularly scheduled EWC episode of Friday Night rampage where she and her S.T. teammate, fellow Shieldmaiden Jackie “Bandit” Layton, would meet the EWC World Tag Team Champions, Iggy Swango and Melody Malone.
As she wraps her hands with tape, Psycho looks away from the mirror, not wanting to look into it as the laughter starts again.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Fuck off… ye nay bae rael!
She closes her eyes and takes a step as the voices in her ears get louder and louder.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I know ye kinnda bae there so fuck off, ye gammy gowls!
She starts shaking her head, her hands finding their way to her ears as the voices get louder and louder.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Yer nay rael… yer nay rael….
Falling to her knees, Psycho starts to shake bodily, her hands clasped to her ears as tightly as she physically can.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Fuck off ye jabby wee cunts, yer nay rael!
Her body falls forward, shaking as she goes so that it almost looks like she’s trying to kiss the floor while maintaining her grip on her ears.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Stop fuckin’ laughin’ at me!
The laughter starts to overwhelm the voices as she tries to shut them out.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Jaysus, Mary an’ Joseph an’ all the Holy martyrs, fuck off! May the saints preserve me…
Within a minute of her going down on the floor, her elder brother and trainer, Shonn “Malleus Diabolus” Maguire, comes into the room.
Shonn Maguire: Sorsh? Ye bae ready yet, Lass?
Seeing her on the floor, Shonn hurries over to her and takes her into his arms.
Shonn Maguire: It bae alright, Sorsh, there’s no one comin’ in haer fer ye…
Psycho continues to shake uncontrollably and Shonn hugs her tighter and yet more gently.
Shonn Maguire: Sorsh, ye’re alright… Sorsh!
Psycho falls back into him, still shaking, still clutching her ears and her eyes still squeezed shut.
Shonn Maguire: It bae alright, Sorsh, they’re nay comin’...
As Psycho continues to shake, Shonn glances back at the door.
Shonn Maguire: Aoife? Becca? Come in haer, Girls! Sorsh bae naedin’ us!
Within seconds of his call, they are joined by their baby sister and Psycho’s fellow Shieldmaiden, Aoife “Banshee” Maguire, as well as Psycho’s wife, also a fellow Shieldmaiden, Becca “Bruiser” Maguire. Banshee and Bruiser quickly move in to join the family embrace.
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: Sorsh, I’m here!
Aoife "Banshee" Maguire: Aye, I’m haer as well, Lass!
Shonn squeezes Psycho’s hand.
Shonn Maguire: Ye fael us haer, Lass? We’re nay gonna let ennithin happen tae ye! They kinna get by all o’ us!
Bruiser nods firmly.
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: Fuckin’ right they can’t!
Banshee nods her agreement as well.
Aoife "Banshee" Maguire: I love ye, Sorsh…
Shonn and Bruiser both smile and nod their heads.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, I love ye li’l sister!
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: I fuckin’ love ye too, Lass!
Shonn and Banshee can’t help but smile at Bruiser’s usage of a couple of their family’s typical verbiage, having heard it so much it’s obviously sunk into her brain deeply enough to come flying back out as if it’s normal for her just as much as it is for them. Psycho slowly stops shaking, her breathing easing itself as well. A minute later, she opens her eyes and releases her grip on her ears.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: B… Bex?
She looks at the three people all holding her together and can’t believe her eyes.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Bex? Eef? Shonn?
As her two siblings and her wife start to nod reassuringly, psycho bursts into tears.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Begorra, I’m so… sorry!
All three quickly hug her tighter while shaking their heads.
Shonn Maguire: Ye dinna bae naedin’ tae apologize fer a fuckin’ ting, Sorsh. I was there wit ye, I know whot bae happenin’ tae ye….
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: Ya’ll never have to apologize to me, Lass!
Aoife "Banshee" Maguire: Ye bae alright, Sorsh, no naed tae apologize t’all.
Psycho shakes her head, looking around the room and taking the sights in.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I bae haerin’ them again… I…
Suddenly, she starts looking around frantically.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: How… how long? Have I missed th’ chapel?
Bruiser, Shonn and Banshee all shake their heads.
Shonn Maguire: Nay, Lass, ye’ve missed nuttin’.
Banshee nods her agreement with their elder brother.
Aoife "Banshee" Maguire: Ye still bae havin’ almost four hours yet.
Psycho nods and slowly sits up on the floor, her family moving so that she is surrounded and sees one no matter which way she looks.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: How am I supposed tae bae gettin’ ready fer Sunday like this?
Shonn can’t help but smile.
Shonn Maguire: We’ve got tha fer ye, Lass. ye dinna naed tae worry about it at all.
Psycho shakes her head.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: But I kinna know who I bae preparin’ tae face in this match.
Bruiser grins.
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: Maybe you’ll get to kick Gabriel Ohio’s head off again!
Banshee shrugs.
Aoife "Banshee" Maguire: Or it could bae one o’ th’ Coven…
Shonn shrugs.
Shonn Maguire: Whether it bae one o’ those or aevn tha Lass whot used tae bae tag champion in Hybrid tha went from baein’ called Sylva tae Old Rose or…
He shrugs all over again.
Shonn Maguire: We’ll have ye ready fer whotever bae comin’ fer ye in tha ring!
Bruiser nods in agreement.
Becca "Bruiser" Maguire: They could even be pullin’ our Lance Mikes or Snakebite just to make this special and you’d still be ready. We’ll make sure of that.
Psycho nods slowly, seemingly pulling herself together.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Ok, let’s go get me ready fer this.
Shonn pats her on the back and all four stand up together.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, we got this, Sorsh. Ye naedn’y bae worryin’ t’all.

Saturday, October 26, 2019 Warehouse Gym Shieldmaidens Clubhouse New Orleans, Louisiana 2:26 PM CDT
The camera opens on “Psycho” Saoirse Maguire standing under the familiar black banner with the white Shieldmaidens lettering on it dressed in blue jeans, black Cryachan t-shirt, and her Shieldmaidens kutte. She nods acknowledgingly to the camera and then runs her fingers through the hair of her mohawk.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Aye, so this match wit th’ mystery opponent…
Looking slightly away, Psycho shakes her head ashamedly.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I admit, it bae messin’ wit me head jess a li’l…
Her gaze moves back to the camera and then falls to the floor.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I willna bae told baefore th’ match who I bae fightin’ aside from I will bae fightin’ someone but baecause Space Lord…
She pauses and waves her hand.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Jackie Girl made th’ joke, he’s nay gone, he jess bae off home an’ tha may, in fact, bae true, it doesnay help me in lookin’ at ye an’ sayin’, hey, come an’ see me kick this gammy gowl’s fuckin’ head off on Sunday!” when I kinna tell ye who bae th’ gammy gowl I’ll bae kickin’!
She shakes her head, crossing her arms in frustration.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Shonn an’ Bex looked at me an’ said, “Sorsh, ye kinna bae worryin’ about whot ye kinna control an’ ye kinna bae controllin’ who they bae sendin’ out there fer ye tae bae fightin’.” But they also pointed out tae me tha I kinna control tha normally so why should it matter now?
She nods to herself as she ponders this idea.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: An’ I say…
She nods one more time, this time much more forcefully than previously, her hands dropping away from her chest.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I dinna care ennymore if it’s Gabriel Ohio, if it’s a Coven member, if it’s a new nightmare so tae spaek, if it’s Lance Mikes, if it’s Wavy Crocket, if it’s Robert Mack in his fuckin’ warpaint. If it’s Candy Bratton, if it’s th’ fuckin’ devil himself…
She nods, pointing to the floor emphatically.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I have shown tha despite whot me brther tells me about how I shouldna fall in love wit me kicks, I kin kick anyone’s head off tha I bae in th’ rin’ wit! So send me whoever ye bae willin’ tae send me, bae it a seven-foot monster or some li’l girl tha talks tae dolls, I will kick their head off an’ show th’ world why I am th’ Phoenix tha bae risin’ in this tournament! I am ready fer whotever ye kin find me an’ when I’m done I’ll take whotever else ye got baecause I am nay th’ one tae bae runnin’ from any o’ ye!
She moves up closer to the camera and nods forcefully.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: Do ye bae hearin’ me?
She points fiercely to herself.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: I’m nay runnin’!
She steps forward and grabs the camera.
"Psycho" Saoirse Maguire: It bae time fer whoever ye got tae get me insanity upside their fuckin’ head!
