Scene Opens with Onyx Nightfur smiling at the camera. For a gorgious young woman, she wears minimal makeup, a cheap wal-mart brand tank top and faded jeans. Her hair is tied back in a pony tail. "Hi, so...this week I'm facing Jac Morgan, whom, as you may know, is an old friend of mine. We've never officially faced one another in the ring before, although I do regret to report the stable I helped create almost put him in the hospital when I first came into this business. Despite that, Jac and I have never really had an issues with each other...in fact..we've been there for one another through his marriage ending and my engagement breaking up."
She pauses as a dark haired toddler wearing all his clothes backwards runs screaming gleefully through the room. "Jac is a great guy, but considering all the titles he's won, h probably underestimates me. Three years ago, he'd be right. even though I won 80% of my matches, I didn't know much about wrestling. And I've only been in the business a fraction of the time he has. Fortunately, I'm a fast learner..."
Marlow runs by in the background again holding a small glass bowl over his head with a red betta in it, screaming "Fiiiish, fiiiiish, my fiiiiiish!!!!"
"...And...I had a great teacher. I'm sort of a sci-fi geek...you remember those posters they used to sell that said "Everything I Need to Know, I Learned from Star Wars"? Well....I still won't discount those, there are some senior citizens that I suspect have the demonic power to strike you with lightning... but that aside, let's entitle this promo "Everything I Need to Know About Wrestling, I Learned From Having a Kid."
CRASH. "Excuse me..."
Cut to Onyx cleaning up water. The fish is now in a coffee cup temperarily. "Number one...NOTHING is sacred. Anythign you own, your opponent ill use against you and your child will goodnaturely destroy. In the long run, you learn not to get mad about it and laugh at it, because it's not gonna stop happening no matter what precautions you take. You can put everything way up out of their reach and they still manage to get it."
Marlow is already off digging through a drawer. Onyx sighs as she tosses the glass in the trash. "Number two...there are no sick days. You don't get them. Headache, fever, runny nose, broken heart, broken bones, coma...you still have to be on your toes and ready for anything."
"Number Three...patience in all things..." Cut to Marlow at the sink on one of his little chairs, brushing his teeth for the thirty or fourtith time today and Onyx looks on, making sure he doesn't crawl up on the sink and get into the medicine cabinet.
"Number Four...always be on your toes. Always. Anything can and will happen, because people are crazy...and so are toddlers." Marlow bounces on the couch covered in Elmo bandages, sqeauling while District 9 plays on TV. He giggles and screams out "GROSS!" everytime something bloody happens before Onyx quickly switches it back to Phineas and Ferb.
Marlow bounces off the couch and runs into the bathroom with Chad the Boston Terrier in toe. The door slams then he screams out "Get OUT Chad, I'm goin' POOP!!!!!"
"Number Five, watch what you say because everything you say will be repeated...and likely misquoted to the wrong people," Onyx sighs sagely as she picks up toys and puts them away in the toy box as Jackson the pug pants happily and follows her around. Jerry Jr., the other Boston terrier, has long since hidden under the bed to chew on a bone in privacy without his ears and other things being pulled on.
"Number Six, get used to watching, listening, and dong things that bore or annoy you, because now that you're a parent or a wrestler, you hardly ever get to do what YOU want. It's rewarding, and you wouldn't change it for the world, but there are some days you really wish you could watch the new episode of Caprica instead of Go Diego Go and Sponge Bob. There are also days you really wish you didn't have to listen to your opponent's promo."
Cut to later. Onyx is now covered in dirt from the vacuum bag mysteriously burst. Hmmm "Number Seven, give up the idea of designer clothes and cars and other amusing expenses. You'll be spending too much money replacing things to buy really nice ones. Especially when your toddler goes through a growth spurt or your opponent decides to turn your car into a compact convertable..."
Marlow has finally dozed off and is out cold in a pile with the dogs. Onyx speaks very quietly,"Number Eight...rest when you can. You won't get a lot of chances, so get used to taking impromptu naps when the opportunity comes up. See, I may not be as experienced a wrestler or parent as Jac...but I learn fast. See you in the ring!"
