So after a mini-vacation and a lot of yelling, I’ve developed a bit of a sore throat. It’s terrible, I know. So in an effort to protect my vocal chords, because they’re precious, I’m attempting to push these buttons and make coherent thoughts. It’s a long process. It’s a lot easier to just sit in front of my camera, and talk and talk and talk…
But whatever. We gotta deal with something. Gotta talk it out. Deal with a way bigger match than the promised championship bout I’m to have with that tub of lard Blaise Fader (who by the way should be thanking me for saving her from being SUED) . If you didn’t know, you’re about to. Artemis Kaiser and I are going at it again. With no buildup. No anticipation. This is a money match. The rematch where I look to even up the score. Where I plan on showing her that I’m faaaar from the little girl she beat back in GPW. I’ve changed. I’ve gotten bigger, better, stronger…
Did I mention better?
I work my ass off day in and day out, despite what a lot of you ungrateful fucks out there think. I took MMA classes, I started watching tape, I stopped being lazy when it came to the gym and at the end of all of that, I put a championship on my shoulder. I carry a company on my back. Arty, I stepped into your house when it came to GPW and you slapped me down, and there I was following you like a lost puppy dog after.
But now we’re in my house (As I write this the PVRIS song comes on. Score). I’m not the little girl who wants to prance around and impress you, not the little girl who wants to earn your respect. A lot of you might be hoping and praying for me to get my ass kicked. Maybe Artemis will teach me a lesson.
She won’t.
She’s not the same person she used to be. Getting married changed her and not for the better. I talk to her now and sometimes I wonder where the real Artemis went. Maybe I’ll have to wake her up. The problem is in the timing. This is a match that should be headlining a giant show, with MY title on the line, with all eyes on us.
Instead, you sign a contract and decide to introduce you to UKWF by rushing you into a match with me. It’s almost like they’re saying, Blaise and Skylynn are going to be better, we’re going to drag the hyping of this match out FOREVER. Artemis and Sky though?
Who cares about that?
But I digress…
I’ll reiterate the fact that you’re stepping into my house this time. I hope you’re ready to be the Arty I used to know, or you’ll fall like the rest. Either way, you’ll be kissing my boots at the end (Bankshot reference, duhh).
Toodles. xoxo

“Skylynn, sweetheart, look at how much you’ve grown," Artemis spoke, in an unfamiliar motherly tone.
“You’ve gotten a little taller, a lot prettier, and you blossomed into a fine, young lady.”
“You have returned from that empty place you were at before and became something that I can only shed a tear at. You’ve taken UKWF and made it your own. The first name I hear when I’m told of this place is Skylynn Reed. People call you evil, bratty, but they never forget to call you a damn good wrestler. You have become successful.”
“I could not be prouder of you.”
“But with success comes arrogance. And with arrogance comes stupidity.”
“Skylynn, love, I don’t understand where you got this notion that you can speak down to me the way you do. Did something happen in that fragmented head of yours? Did that championship give you the courage to watch our last match? It gave you enough to challenge me the way you did.”
“All was well until you decided to get silly and forget who you were talking to,” the God of Anger’s eyes narrowed at the camera.
“I guess you just wanted to see if I reject your offer, so that you say that I was scared of the new you. To shut up whatever voice in your head that reminds of our last encounter. And the other voice that tells you that you’re still so wrapped up in me. I wonder how bad it is for your relationship with Leoni?” Artemis looked off to the side in thought.
“This match is supposed to be the ending to that chapter in your book. The one where I beat you bloodied in front of a hateful crowd and your even more hateful mother. Where you fell in love with me out of some deranged want for my attention. And then the want to end your own life because I wouldn’t return your twisted feelings for me.”
“Sorry, Sky, but I don’t believe in happy endings. I believe in punishment. You need to properly taught when to shut your mouth.”
“You didn’t understand that I tried to be a mother for you back then. Fable didn’t want to, for whatever reason. So I took it upon myself to try to help you. So now I’m going to continue to do that and help you the best way I know how to now. I’m going to teach you that your championship reign will not protect you. Not from failure. And especially not from me.”
“What happens when I beat you again? Do you face the thought that for every step you take towards my shadow, I step farther ahead into the light? Or do you shrug it off and try your hardest to forget it?” Artemis asked, resting the side of her face upon a closed fist.
“You need to face that thought now, Skylynn. It’ll be better for your health after I leave you bleeding in the ring.”
“Again.”

Skylynn Reed “Hey boo.”
Skylynn stood, like always, with Alexander and Léoni standing on either side of her. Léoni proudly held the UKWF Championship, while the Aussie Sensation held a framed photograph. It showed Artemis pinning her to the mat back in GPW.
Skylynn Reed “I’m here to set the record straight. This picture represents the only real failure I acknowledge in my wrestling career. No other loss has mattered to me in the long run. This is a chance to right a wrong, don’t you think Artemis? I’ve beaten one mother after all, and we were better off for it. What’s one more?
You wanted to mother me, to foster me, to shape me into the person YOU thought I should be. You can try and say you were doing it for me, and please do pardon my French…
But that was bullshit. You didn’t try taking me under your wing for my sake, no. It was for you. Like you took some kind of perverse pleasure in my suffering. And it’s not that you did it that bothers me, no. It’s that you sit around and be fake about it.”
She held the photo up, biting her lip in the process.
Skylynn Reed “These people, they hate me because I’m real. They hate me because I know who and what I am. They hate me because I do what they can’t and it digs under their skin and I damn well make sure they know I’m better than them. But you, they’ll cheer you because you’re fake. They know, and you know, that you’re better than them but you won’t say it. You won’t be real with them, just like you weren’t real with me and just like you aren’t real with yourself.
And that’s okay! Really, it’s okay. You fit right in with Ursula and Blaise. Fake is what you do. Literally. Have you seen your wife?”
Both Alex and Léoni smirk, but Skylynn’s face stays as focused as ever.
Skylynn Reed “When I beat you, and I will beat you, I don’t want you to have any excuses. I don’t want to hear it. Because of that, Mr. Underwood and Léoni won’t be at ringside during the match.”
Her agent and “girlfriend” both open their mouths to protest the decision, but the now blonde Aussie just stomps her foot to quiet them.
Skylynn Reed “I don’t need them to beat you, because for a long time I was in your ever growing shadow. But here, now, in UKWF…
Now you’re in mine. I’m on the pedestal, I’m the ELITE. Befitting of your size, you’re below me, just wishing your arms were long enough to pull yourself to the top. That’s my spot now, and I’ll be damned if I let you waltz in and try to dethrone me.
G’luck, sweetheart.”
Without a further word, Skylynn dropped the photo to the floor. She took her title from Léoni and the trio walked off frame.

“The politeness is gone, Reed.
"Let me remind you of one thing.”
“There’s a switch within me. I constructed it out of the kindness that lingered deep in my cold, black heart. Whenever I left GPW, I went and got married. I adopted a kid. During that lovely time, I began to rethink my life. I have friends and family who need me to be emotionally stable. Dialing back the sick, sadistic monster that you got to love and fear was possibly the hardest thing I’ve ever done.”
“And I only succeeded somewhat.”
“This switch? I can click it at any time. You would expect me to say that the same person you met in GPW would come out, right?” Artemis laughed, almost to the point of it not being audible.
“Skylynn, if that’s what you believe, I’m going to take my time teaching you how wrong you are.”
“There’s something worse now that remains there. Something that you haven’t faced here in UKWF. Consider me your first glimpse into the world that you think you’re ready for,” Artemis grinned sinisterly.
“Because of your petulant attitude, I’ll have to unleash this upon you. I’ll have to be a bad parent for the first time ever and show my little boy, Lukas, what his momma is really like in the ring. Trust me when I say that I’ve been waiting for a chance like this. I finally get to let loose, because you let me in.”
“You let me into your home, thinking that you can survive me, that you can beat me? During all this time, you have only watched me being nice and courteous to everyone. Why? It’s because I love it when my kid looks me in the eyes and doesn’t shy away because he’s terrified of me.”
“You’ll look me in the eyes the same way, because after your accident, you forgot to fear me. The nightmares, the feelings, they all stopped when that fateful night. Your tragedy gave you the courage to underestimate me. You think that being here in your home will give you the edge?”
“I’m a Kaiser. We walk into places and take over. We conquer. That’s what I did to GPW and that’s what I will do to UKWF when I beat you, make you remember every traumatic moment. I’m going to make you fear me again, baby girl."
“And the sickest thing about it is?”
“I’m not doing any of this because I don’t like you or hate you. No. This is from an honest place in my heart.”
Artemis placed her hand over her heart, clutching at it. “It’s because I love you, Skylynn Reed. You taught me how to be a loving parent before I even became one.”
“So now I’m going to learn how to punish my kids,“ a pause, “by beating you worse than I did in our GPW match.”
“By giving you that lesson, I’ll be a better mother to you than Fable ever has been.”
