There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away, maybe I'm just blind
Maybe I'm just blind
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away, maybe I'm just blind
Maybe I'm just blind
[The scene fades in and we find ourselves in Howling Wolf One, the Wolf Family’s Boeing 747-8 as it transports the Wolfpack to the location of their new family compound that they are referring to as Parts UnKnown, USA. Every member of the Pack was there...]
[...Vincent and VooDoo and their three children; 14 yr old twins, Ciara and Rose and their 10 yr old brother, Callan...]
[...Kal X and Angelique and their four children; oldest twins, Drake and Edward that Kal had with his first wife, Adora; and 16 yr old twins, Simon and Selina...]
[...Jack, Kal’s twin, and his wife, Eve; along with their twins, Devlyn and Rainer...]
[...Sarah Wolf, the only adult Wolf without a twin and her “friend”, Murphy...]
[...Damon Havok Riggs and his wife, Jenna Riggs with their 3 children, 15 yr old Damon Jr. aka DJ, 13 yr old, Jason aka JJ, named after Damon’s cousin and Riggs’ family’s “Crown Jewel”, Allison Riggs-Preston, ARP. With Allison were her twins, Luke and Leyla, who were almost 2 yrs old, and their masked nannies, One and Two. Husband, Dane Preston was already at the compound in Parts Unknown, he had been in charge of setting things up...]
[...OpW Immortal Champion, Anicka Swan and her boyfriend, Roger Wright and his 5 yr old daughter, Marie…]
[...Kal X and Angelique and their four children; oldest twins, Drake and Edward that Kal had with his first wife, Adora; and 16 yr old twins, Simon and Selina...]
[...Jack, Kal’s twin, and his wife, Eve; along with their twins, Devlyn and Rainer...]
[...Sarah Wolf, the only adult Wolf without a twin and her “friend”, Murphy...]
[...Damon Havok Riggs and his wife, Jenna Riggs with their 3 children, 15 yr old Damon Jr. aka DJ, 13 yr old, Jason aka JJ, named after Damon’s cousin and Riggs’ family’s “Crown Jewel”, Allison Riggs-Preston, ARP. With Allison were her twins, Luke and Leyla, who were almost 2 yrs old, and their masked nannies, One and Two. Husband, Dane Preston was already at the compound in Parts Unknown, he had been in charge of setting things up...]
[...OpW Immortal Champion, Anicka Swan and her boyfriend, Roger Wright and his 5 yr old daughter, Marie…]
[...save but one, Xavier Wolf, Vincent’s twin brother.]
[No one really spoke about his absence. VooDoo was in a quite calm mood for a change and they wanted to keep it that way; at least until the plane landed and she couldn’t hijack the jet and force the pilots to land right on top of OpW headquarters.]
I am glad Ang is in charge of picking our house out. [Kal said from beside his wife. The first house to be built was Vin and VooDoo’s house; namely because Vin had himself chosen it. He looked around at Damon Riggs who sat with his wife, Jenna.] Cause anything any one of us could pick would pale in comparison. It’s literally a monument to his dick.
Kal! [Ang gave Kal a harsh look and gave his hand a tight squeeze.] There’s kids present.
[Kal looked at the other end of the sitting area in the plane where there was a 70 inch screen TV and every one of the kids, even grown ones, were playing a video game. Ang glanced down at Allison and Dane’s 2 yr old twins and then back at him. He glances down at them and then back at his wife.] Oh no, they’re damaged for life.
Smart ass. [Ang smiled and shook her head.]
Ang! [Kal said with a fake shocked tone to his voice, placing a hand on his chest.] There’s children present.
[Everyone laughed as the pilot's voice came over the intercom system, letting them know that they would be in visual range within 5 mins. Everyone from the other end of the plane all came forward where the adults where, everyone had been waiting to see the surprise that Vincent had in store for his mate. Vincent reached into his back pocket and pulled out a black satin blindfold and handed it to VooDoo.]
Really, Dearest? [She said with a smile but still took the blindfold.]
Yes, really, Precious.
[VooDoo put on the blindfold and Vincent reached over and pulled it down a little more snug in place, he knew his wife; she’d peek if she got a chance. For the next couple of moments, there were jokes and teasing and then there was stunned silence. All VooDoo had to go on was the reactions of all that were seeing it before her.]
...Oh my God, Daddy!
...Vincent Wolf, you never cease to amaze me…
...Damn, will you look at that....
...I told you it was a monument to…
...KAL!...
...Ani can’t wait to see the look on her face…
...I can't believe you managed to keep his secret...
...I think we need to take lessons from Uncle Vin on how to impress the ladies…
[VooDoo sat there with a soft smile on her face as she listened to everything that was being said. She had no idea what her husband did, but hearing the reactions from those who know him best; it must be something special. Just like she knew almost twenty years ago that he was.]
I'll never let you down even if I could
I'd give up everything if only for your good
So hold me when I'm here, right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared you won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone, love me when I'm gone
I'd give up everything if only for your good
So hold me when I'm here, right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared you won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone, love me when I'm gone
[The scene fades in about 30 mins later and the cars moving the Wolfpack from their private airport to the center of the new compound pull to a stop in front of VooDoo’s new house. Vincent and VooDoo alone in one of the cars with Two driving. Vincent knew his wife so well, he didn’t want to take the chance of her being able to manipulate anyone into telling her what they were seeing. Vincent opened the door and then helped his wife out and carefully walked her over to where he thought the best place for her to see it for the first time.]
[VooDoo has that serene smile on her tips as she listens as her family quietly closes in around them. All wanting a chance to see her reaction. Vincent slipped behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her towards him, burying his nose in her long crimson locks. He wanted to be able to catch her if she were to pass out.]
Now, Precious. [He whispered softly into her ear.]
[VooDoo reached up and removed the mask and stood there for a moment before she slowly opened her emerald green eyes and took in what was before her. Her eyes grew wide and she opened her mouth and sucked in a breath of air; she was shocked, truly shocked. She stood there, trying to put the words together to form a sentence and couldn’t. She turned around and looked up into her mate’s blue eyes as her green ones filled with tears; as they spilled down her cheeks, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down into one of the tightest hugs to ever be delivered.]
[Standing before them, in the middle of 6,000 acres in Parts Unknown, USA, was an exact replica of PhreeQ Tower; all 13 stories of it, the very place where Vin and Voo met and their love blossomed. There were some minor changes, where next door there had been a tattoo parlor and a laundromat, there was now a pool and bbq pit with a three story garage on the other side of it and where there had been nothing but brick in the front, there was now a glass elevator, so when you rode the elevators you can get a view of the surrounding lands. It was meticulously landscaped with roses in every hue known to man.]
Red did start breathing again, right?
[Vincent slowly pulled her off of him, smiling and took her by the hand and sang in that calm smooth voice of his as he pulled her to the double glass doors that led to the entrance and the elevator.]
Come my lady. Come come my lady.
I often wonder what it would be like to have a normal family. [Ciara rolled her eyes.]
It’d be boring, pup. [Anicka said as she grabbed her and put her in a headlock and proceeded to give her noogies.]
[Once they had made it inside, Vincent pointed to another set of glass doors as he pressed the button for the elevator.] The new Church; first and second floors; second floor is just a track. Everything else including the changing room and showers are the same.
[The elevator doors opened.] All adults and Ani onto the elevator. [Kal’s oldest sons, started to step onto the elevator but was caught by Vincent’s arm as he raised it.] You’re an adult once you beat me in the ring.
Man, at the rate you’re going, Drake, you’re never going to be an adult. [Edward teased his twin.]
And you will be?
You want me to knock you out for old times’ sake, Red? [Damon asked, causing everyone to chuckle; it was he who had knocked her out and placed an unconscious VooDoo in Vincent’s bed to keep her safe from the man she once called her Owner.]
[Elevator doors closed and it slowly started going up. Vincent pushed the button for the 13th floor, which is where Vin and Voo’s apartment was. He pointed to the names engraved beside certain buttons. He didn’t bother to read them, they were all adults and could do it on their own.]
[Starting at the 7th floor was simply Rogani and Marie. They weren’t married; but the Wolfpack had ‘shipped their names together when they talked about them so it seemed appropriate to put it there.]
[Next was the Riggs name on the 8th floor. Although Damon and Jenna and the whole Riggs family was more than welcome to live at the compound; they already had multiple McMansions on both sides of the US as well as the compound in South NJ. They were basically using this as a place to lay over in between trips and vacations and wanted to visit the family.]]
[The 9th and 10th floors belong to Vin and Voo’s twins, Ciara can say what she wants about wondering what it was like having a normal family, but in normal families you don’t have your own apartment at 15 yrs old.]
[The 11th floor belonged to the youngest of Vin and Voo’s children, 10 yr old, Callan. VooDoo often called him her little prince, since he came from one of those rare single wolf births; the last time that happened was with Sarah Wolf. VooDoo wasn’t supposed to conceive at all, let alone to have a surprise single birth; even Kal X cried when that first cry came out of his mouth.]
[The elevator came to a stop at the 13th floor and the doors opened revealing a 20x20 entryway with black cherry carved wooden doors and Vin pressed the button for the rooftop and told the others that he and his wife would meet them up there as they stepped off onto their floor.]
I.. I… [she shook her head and smiled.] i… just don’t know what to say.
Don’t say nothing yet, Dearest. [He walked over to the doors and swung them wide open.] We’re not through with the tour.
[VooDoo’s hand shot to her mouth, hiding the ‘oh my god’ that had formed on her lips as she stepped through the doorway. Inside was the exact replica of their apartment in PhreeQ Tower; not the one they currently have with them having a bedroom with walls and a door and separate bedrooms for the children, but it was one massive room. The living room, kitchen and dining room was the main focal point with their sleeping area and office marked off with floor to ceiling bookshelves. Just passed the kitchen was the wrought iron spiral staircase that led to the rooftop and right beside the staircase was a single wooden door.]
Oh, my Vin. You didn’t. [She walked over to the door and stood there for a moment before she opened the door. Again, her hand went to her mouth. Inside was the tiny one room hole in the wall that she and Vin had spent the first year of their relationship in; complete with a bed, wooden chair and table. Neither of them had to live there, it was just what they had preferred with each other. VooDoo eventually went on to buy the building and build her apartment around his; because she wanted him to have that ‘safe place’ he could go when he was in one of his moods.] oh, my God. Vincent Othelo Wolf, you did.
I did. [Vin smiled.] That’s not all.
[He walked her over to the spiral staircase and waited for her to go up and then followed behind her. Once she got to the top, she opened the door and stepped out. It was her rose garden. It was Japanese in style and located in the center was a raised koi pond with brightly colored fish swimming around and in the center of the pond was a weeping willow tree. VooDoo turned around and buried her head into Vincent’s chest and sobbed like they had only seen twice before; the births of her children. Vincent couldn’t help but smile as he whispered quiet soothing words into her ear. Jenna and Angelique were smiling and dabbing away tears. Ciara and Rose came over and hugged onto them, both saying over and over “it’s okay, momma, it’s okay”. It was Kal X who set the world back right.]
As much as I love ya, Red, I am glad I didn’t have to lug 200 rose bushes up 13 flights of stairs this time.
[This caused VooDoo to laugh and step away from her husband and wipe the tear streaks away; she turned around and faced the others.] But you would have.
Without a doubt, that’s a given. [He walked over to her and hugs her.] I am just glad I didn’t. My calves hurt for days.
I don’t know about you all, but I’m starved. I’ve been cooking all day. I've got shit down there on the grill. [Dane told them.] I say we all go eat.
[The scene slowly fades to black as they all make their way over to the elevator, as VooDoo stood there, she couldn’t help but stand there in awe of her husband. The first time she had told him “you never cease to amaze me” he had replied, if I ever stop, let me know so I can fix it; and after almost twenty years, he’s never stopped amazing her.]
When your education x-ray cannot see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing that I could not tell my friends
And roaming through this darkness I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this but part of me is gone
I won't tell you a damn thing that I could not tell my friends
And roaming through this darkness I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this but part of me is gone
[The scene fades in and it’s hours later, the Pack had spent their first day at the Compound eating and exploring the ‘humble’ beginnings of what would be their new home. They did the whole eat, drink and be merry thing; with the evening winding down in VooDoo’s rooftop rose garden watching the sun set over the Pack’s territory, before returning to their own homes or temporary homes. The elevator doors opened on the 7th floor and 5 yr old Marie Wright burst out of the elevator giggling with Ani’s white pitbull named Mega; Rogani came out after them. Marie punched in the code for the door and opened it.]
We won! [She excitedly said as her and the dog banked right at the kitchen’s island and ran to her bedroom; from the sounds coming from the open doorway, they both jumped on the bed at the same time and then there was giggling; they didn’t have to see it to know that Mega was licking her face.]
[Anicka and Roger continued around the island and into the kitchen where they saw the leftovers that had been boxed up and brought up by One and Two. Vin had done good with their apartment. Anicka had gone to culinary school and was a chef; he made the kitchen the main focal point and spared no expense. Anicka and Vincent had gotten off to a rocky start; although he didn’t like her, he did respect her in the ring. But that changed after the incident at the mall, where she had protected his Pups as if they were Pups of her own; and he realized she was for sure part of his Pack.]
Get your pjs on, Peanut! [Roger yelled loud enough for Marie to hear.]
Okay, Daddy! [Came from the opened doorway, followed by more giggles. Mega had taken quite a shine to Marie and was usually by her side.]
Ani knows you're worried about Marie and moving from the ranch, but Ani thinks she's going to be just fine.
I know, it was just a big step for her, for both of us. [Roger told Ani as he gave her a kiss.] I’m gonna go do the tuck and read with Peanut.
Ani’ll meet you on the balcony for some R and R. [Roger turned around to walk away and Ani slapped him on the ass.]
[Roger looked over his shoulder, smiled and gave her a wink.] You think you’re funny.
Ani doesn't think she is, she knows she is.
[Anicka smiles as she puts away the food and grabs the silver box that was sitting on top of the refrigerator and makes her way through the living room area and onto the balcony and into the complete silence of the outdoors. It was one of the things the Pack had talked about most; how quiet it was out here and how much brighter the stars were. She sat down on the small outdoor couch, marveling that Vincent had indeed thought of everything. She opened the box and started to roll the “nightcap”.]
You know, Tyler, Ani could almost say she was having a case of deja vu this week since just last week our names appeared with the word versus in between them. Only difference is this week, it’s just the two of us. No one to protect you, no one to help you, no one you can tag in to catch that breather… just you… [the corner of her lip twisted up slightly on the right side.] ...and Ani.
[She paused long enough to lick the blunt and finish rolling it; instead of lighting it; she placed it on top of the box. Normally, she would have blazed that shit right up, but with Marie around, she had been cutting back until after Marie’s bedtime.]
You’ve been around long enough that you know the type of wrestler that Ani is. She represented many federations as their Hardcore champion, or whatever their equivalent of that is. [She smirked and rolled her eyes.] Because back then it was all about VooDoo and the Pack pushing her for the World titles; Ani found it very hard to shine, when there was already another star, so she found her own place to shine; in a division that was solely dedicated to being Violence Personified. ARP isn't the only one who has had to struggle to get out of someone's shadow.
[Anicka realized what she said and who would hear it and smiled, she brought both hands up and made a heart with her index fingers and thumbs then mouthed the words "Ani loves you, Voo".]
But when VooDoo decided not to return to the ring, that’s when Ani knew it was her time to shine. And shine she has indeed. Even “the fed that shall not be named’ could not deny the shine; nor could they harness its power and control it. They did however like to manipulate it’s win/loss record for their “personal” reasons. But they weren’t able to stop what Allison and Ani had planned on doing from the start, winning those tag team belts. They couldn’t stop our drive and our determination once we put our minds to it. Just like Ani’s put her mind to it, to set the bar for the longest singles win record and Immortal Title reign. So, Ani’s going to let Tyler be a lesson to all of you new people that have just joined our little OpW party and when you watch what she can do, just remember this… before you start calling her by name...
Ani’s name is not Dick
...so keep it out of your mouth…
...so keep it out of your mouth…
“Although, if she had one, she’d throat fuck you with it.”
What’s your excuse going to be this week, Tyler? What excuse will you say caused you to lose your match this week when Ani keeps you playing defense the whole match because she will be playing one step ahead of you; OpW fans watching as you claim that the only reasons you have truly lost are because others have interfered. Ani’s Pack won’t be interfering in this match, can you say the same thing about yours? Because everyone knows, where there is one of ya; there is all of ya. Then again, maybe you all have taken a play from the Wolfpack playbook…
Do what you got to do to win
...Fuck the Rules…
...Fuck the Rules…
“Only difference, we don’t need a team assist.”
Look at where you are in the scheme of things, Tyler. When ol’ John-John was listing off his precious procurements. Where were you? Just barely squeaking in above Le’Andra Fury and she was the one he picked to be his tag team partner. Not Tyler Knowles, a man who’s been there with him since the opening day of OpW, but some bitch that it looks like he used as bait to get the “final missing piece” to his puzzle. From Ani’s personal observation, you’re more replaceable than a car in Grand Theft Auto. Seriously, think about it, Tyler, who was the first person Stylez picked to throw at Ani as one of his WildKards? It wasn’t Tyler Knowles, hell, it wasn't even Blair… but who was it? Xavier fuckin’ Wolf. Why? Ani thinks it was Madisin Ivy who said it best… It’s going to take a Wolf to beat a Wolf.
[Anicka gives a little howl.]
Ani would say that she would go easy on you this week, but let’s face it, that’s not really Ani’s style. Plus there is a whole lot of other fresh meat in the federation that needs to see what Ani can do. All of them coming in here giving some mighty good lip service about being the King or Queen of OpW, that they are here to win that gold. [Anicka crosses her arms over her chest.] Ani’s gold? Bitches, please, have yourself several seats somewhere. Before you walk into a federation and claim it as yours and that gold is yours… don’t you think you should actually try putting out a promo and do something like… win a fucking match? Don’t you think you should have something call the Immortal fuckin’ strap around your waist before you start “claiming” you’re the King or Queen? And how do you get a shot at Ani’s belt? You can’t just walk into OpW and demand or ask for it; nope; the key to getting a World title is…
Impress this Bitch.
...Become One of Her Chosen…
“And leave the ring as one of the Fallen.”
...Become One of Her Chosen…
“And leave the ring as one of the Fallen.”
Ani’s only regret this week, Tyler, is that your name won’t be listed under the ranks of the Fallen. [Anicka gives a wink.] Maybe next time though...
[Ani looked up as Roger opened the door and made his way outside. He plopped down beside her and he reached over and picked up the blunt from the table and lit it. He inhaled the smoke and held it for a moment.]
I told Marie that we’d be shopping for a new horse. She is excited. She thinks you need one, too.
Why on Earth does Ani need a horse? [She took the offered blunt from him.]
Obviously, to ride.
Ani already rides one of those. [She smiled coyly.]
Yes, but this one will be much bigger.
Much bigger and it’ll do damage to Ani.
[Roger smiles and leans in and gives her a kiss and then sits back on the couch with her. Silently they pass the blunt back and forth, enjoying the quiet solitude of what was to become their new home. Roger laced his fingers into Ani’s as she rested her head against his shoulder.]
Roger?
Yes, Beautiful?
Ani.. [She pauses just for a moment.] ...chooses you.
[When the depth of her words sunk in, Roger couldn’t help but smile. She might not have been able to say "the word" to him, but he'd take it. In the animal kingdom, swans were just like wolves in a way; when they chose their mate, it's for life. He raised her hand to his lips and kissed the back of it, before he leaned his head against her.] I chose you, too, Beautiful.
[The scene fades to black.]
So hold me when I'm here, right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared and love me when I'm gone
Everything I am and everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
Hold me when I'm scared and love me when I'm gone
Everything I am and everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
