The RDCW locker room. Sammitch is taping up his wrists and forearms as Penwing talks to him.

PenWing: Here's what I don't get. Why an intergender tag match? And why would they put you and Meeko out there? You both just had matches at Anathema Wednesday! I haven't been in the ring there the last two events!

Sammitch: I don't write the card for every show, PenWing. They schedule matches, I wrestle in said matches, and if I'm lucky, I'm winning when the bell rings. Look at it this way - you get a break for the night, and you just might be thankful for it next event if they give you some kind of nasty handicap match or something.

PW: That's just it. I don't want to rest, man! I want to wrestle! I want to get out there and win matches - and win more belts!

CS: I told you - we're not about belts. At least Meeko and I aren't. There's more to this than that.

PW: <holding up a hand> I know, I know, I know. We have plans and all that good stuff. Well so far, those plans aren't landing me the matches I want. I'm getting tired of this, Sammitch.

CS: Not my call, 'Wing. You don't like it, take it up with Meeko. She's the one that's got your contract. <Puts a hand on PenWing's shoulder.> Me, I'd just tell you to take it easy, man. You'll get your chance. Just keep being a good team player, wrestle the matches that come to you, and sooner or later, things'll work out. Trust me.

<The door opens and Meeko enters.>

CS: Hey! You feelin' okay? <Meeko nods> Awesome. <Turning to PenWing> Tonight, Pennie, is just another match. Don't you worry about us. Meeko here even cleans house in the mud! And I did a decent job of handling PJP. So relax. Next time, you'll get your shot.

PW: I just don't understand how you two can get away with playing fair when everyone else out there is throwing cheap shots and low blows. I know they'll be doing more of the same tonight. Just watch your backs, and if they pull any crazy shit, I'll be right out there.

CS: Appreciated, as always. <Turning to Meeko> Let's get ready to kick some ass out there.

<Sammitch and Meeko walk out of the locker room, leaving a rather frustrated PenWing behind.>


go.
