>>19019102Many of the reporters that came to the dojo in anticipation of Priscilla's arrival draw closer, capturing most of the conversation on film. Priscilla releases her grip on Carmody and looks her in the eyes
>You're eighteen, right? You know, I'm not much older than you.She glances at Sola
>Not much older than you either. Or maybe we're the same age. Or maybe I'm a little younger. I'm not sure, no one seems to know your agePriscilla continues, addressing them both now
>And yet I'm the world champion. On a summit the so called mentors here can only look up to. If I came here, and let clueless trainers and washed up old women tell me I wasn't ready, that I needed to take more bumps, I wouldn't be the star I am today. Instead of looking down on them the way I deserve to, I'd be here, beneath them.Priscilla looks at Sola, really internalizing her appearance this time. That unkept hair in particular. Is she depressed? Questioning herself? Priscilla decides to play on her insecurities.
>I'd be like you, Sola. You were the star of that tag match, but what do you have to show for it? Nothing. Karna, a girl who walked away from this dojo beat you, and left you behind, like every girl who walks away from this place does.She turns her attention to Carmody once again
>If Nikki Kade, a girl that's the same age as you, Carmody, came to this place, she'd still be trying to claw her way up the ladder, like Sola>Instead, she aligned herself with me, a young, beautiful perfect Angel destined for the top, and rose by my side. Now she's a former Intercontinental Champion and one of the most famous wrestlers in this company. Wouldn't you like success like that, Carmody? Or would you rather 'pay your dues' until the old women retire?
