Tall, Grande or Venti

"Yes. This is how many years you expect to be wrestling if you wanted to retire with this much in your account if you continue your current spending habits."

"B-But I can't..."

"Which is why you Save! Save! Save! Or you know, get a second job... Perhaps moonlight in Tension! Pull in double time! I bet you'd like Kyo Akumatsu's bicep squeezing your face in a side headlock, huh? Teheheheheeee~"

"Uh... Well... "

"Nevermind that! Just sign right here and AFW will automatically transfer a nice, healthy, long, fat, juicy percentage of your income into a savings account that you wont have access to until you part ways with the company! You're currently enrolled in our room and board program so you already save a lump sum of money."

"... But wait... Is that even legal?"

"It is if you sign... Yes, there... And right there. Uh huh. In print please. Now your sig- GOOD JOB! "

It was just another day at the office for Chloe Hollister, helping a low card 'Gaijin' friction wrestler. There were SO MANY 'kids' in AFW. A lot of them had never even owned an apartment before. They were suddenly getting healthy lump sums of Yen from their awesome company and they were blowing it on all sorts of junk! Friction girls could be pretty bad with all the useless merchandise, cars, and MOUNTAINS of clothes and ring attire they only wear ONCE! Still, Chloe honestly felt her treasured boys from Kyoto were the worst with how they blew all their cash on Women, booze, video games and cars. The red head sighed, such a troublesome job, she loved it but it was always one problem after another!

To make matters WORSE! SummerSplash was coming up. That meant their girls were going to be booking 1 first class flights and getting into BIG TROUBLE in another country that the AFW had no real control or influence in. Any damages in whatever third world country would suffer would be charged to AFW! In fact! EVERYONE in the company just flips out their little E-Card and charges all their shit to AFW! CHARGE! CHARGE! CHARGE! And SOMEBODY had to keep track of that crap! Especially the shit that went over limit! Maybe Chole didn't have to handle all of it but she still had to deal with it  and it was ALOT! Accounting wasn't a cake walk! It wasn't...

She paused while going through an e-mail and ran across a Tension wrestler who sought advisory on a potential property purchase. High Card Veteran, Male, American, wasn't even a citzen of Japan yet. Name... Chloe blinked at the screen and tried not to drool. But she did a little and after wiping her mouth, a devious little grin crept over face. She had to see her BFF! Maybe she'd be up for getting out of the office to grab a Tiramisu Cheesecake Frappachino too... She could really go for one. Even if she had one already this morning.

Adjusting her glasses as she strolled out of her cubicle to go see her... BFF. Rally's favorite. Aka, The Meddler. AKA: Brick for Brains. Chloe still didn't forgive her BFF for that. Cheerleader Lilly was practically porn star gold and now she was out of the company. Stupid Monoamorous relationships. It's probably why she'll never see The Higurashi Twins tag teaming Ninjette in a handcuff match... Speaking of which, that reminded her to finish her Killing King X Johnny Higurashi Fanfic... Enemies to millions, but tragic passionate lovers behind closed doors. She could smell the emotion...

Walking over to Secretary Mercy Wrenn's little desk, Chloe saw her BFF. "Hey Merrrrcy~ Did'ja get the vine I sent ya!? Funny stuff, huh!? Neeheheehhehe~" Chloe laughed with a hand over her mouth, thinking back to the hilarious vine of a young, African American elementary boy cursing out an Asian woman who barely spoke English! So many racial slurs!

Mercy's office was thumpin as Chloe entered. Mercy was sitting at her desk, clacking away at her keyboard and bobbing her head when the red head worker bee slipped into her office. The two were good friends, even though Mercy thought Chloe could get a little weird. She still liked having someone who was not a wrestler around for companionship. She was just like Mercy in many ways and it was good to have a gossip buddy at the very least.

"Heya, Chlo!" Mercy chirped as she turned down the music. She smiled at the accountant and nodded. "Yeah, I got it..." She said, looking sideways away from Chloe. "I didn't really get it though..." She admitted as she scratched her head.

She shook it off and shrugged. "So, is it break time?" She said, eager to take a break from the endless paperwork. Her fingers were killing her!

Chloe blinked. "You... Didn't get it?" What was there to get!? It was a little kid and an old woman yelling at eachother.

Anyway.

"Ohmuhgawd. Yes! It is!" She beamed motioning for Mercy to hurry up and join her in her dash to the elevator. "Let's get some Fraps!" She said already going to the elevator and pushing the button.

"Soooo like... Why didn't you tell me there was a wedding, Mercy... I SOOO would have gone, you know!?" Chloe chimed before her eyes suddenly Shot open wide.

"OHMYGOD." She cried, turning to Mercy and grabbing her by the shoulders. "WE could have gone together in. Matching. Dresses! Eeee!" Squealed Chloe, bouncing on her toes as the elevator doors opened up behind her.

Mercy smiled. She was just as enthusiastic for a break, even if she didn't get hyper excited like Chloe did. She turned off her music and put her computer on stand by then hopped up. She grabbed her purse and began marching with Chloe out of the office as she began spouting off something about a wedding.

"Eh!? What are you talking about, Chlo!? If I knew about a wedding, I'd let you know!" She said. She wouldn't pass up an opportunity for free drinks and dancing, though.

"You mean you don't know?" Chloe asked in mild shock. "Aren't you friends with the Higurashi Family?"

"Huh?" Mercy blinked. "Oooooooooooh!" Her cheeks reddened and she waved her hands at Chloe and practically shoved her into the elevator. "No one is supposed to know about that, Chlo!" Mercy said, practically pushing her hands against Chloe's lips.

"They are trying to keep that on the DL! There really wasn't a wedding! At least, not a ceremony! I only found out cause I filled out the paperwork!" She said. "So, shush! Mums the word, ok!?" She said, nodding and looking at Chloe.

"Eh!?" Chloe gasped as Mercy pushed her into the elevator with a hand being placed over her mouth from her BFF.

"D-D... L!? DL!? Mercy! You can't keep something like THAT on the DL!" Chloe complained, wrapping an arm around Mercy's shoulder, resting it on her bicep as she dramatically pointed forward into the distance like she was trying to point out the vision that Chloe so clearly saw painted within her own mind.

"J-JUST THINK ABOUT ABOUT! Dark Angel! Talia Wilson! A former Jobber turned vengeful warrior after the man she loved, chose his old lover, Taylor Parker instead! Retuning to swear vengeance on the two and instead fighting her best friend! Not long after that, her sister appears and she meets the brother of the man her sister had loved... They two make sweet, hot, loud love with eachother and secretly MARRY behind closed doors! T-THATS JUST TOO GOOD! " Chloe declared, spinning Mercy around to make them stand face to face as Chloe leaned in and pressed her nose and glasses against Mercy.

"This is like Fanfiction gold! No! Theater Play Platinum! THINK OF THE HEADLINES! THE RATINGS! Mercy! We could have it on Conway's Crib... Er.... BREAKING THE TENSION with one phonecall!" Chloe beamed with excitement. The story was just way too juicy. Ratings would soar and she would no doubt be promoted for her initiative.

Mercy closed one eye as Chloe screamed at her how she should tell the whole world about Mamouru and Aurora's new wedding. If course she understood the implications of putting that kind of juicy gossip on television. She had done it before with Taylor and Johnny... and got slugged for it.

She calmly nodded along with Chloe's ranting and waited for her to get a spot to speak while the girl jiggled her and hugged on her and did all sorts of things to her personal space.

"Uh, Chlo..." She said, raising an eyebrow at the hyper girl. "I know all that. You know I'm in touch with marketing and promotion..." She said, stating the obvious. "But, um... really... I already kinda did that once... and Mamouru is a lot more scary than Johnny or Taylor... even if he's kinda hunky. Maybe especially so."

She patted Chloe on the back. "Beliiieve me, if I thought I could get away with exploiting it, I'd be right there with ya." She said, giving her BFF a sly wink.

"Oh Yes..." Chloe nodded in stern agreement. "I find that aggressive streak the hottest thing about him! Did you ever see how rough he got with Amanda Clare!? It was so... Hnnngh..." Chloe was starting to deviate from the subject at hand but it was hard not to think back to that hot bout she had saved on her DVR.

But she shook her head and snapped out of it when Mercy flashed her that wink. "Ah Heh..." Chloe sheepishly scratched the side of her head with her finger and gave a nervous laugh.

"Honey, the last time you tried to exploit something. You got one of our highest rated shows, canceled... " Chloe said in the nicest way possible while hitting '1' on the elevator. Truth be told, Chlo wasn't fond of what Mercy did. Clyde Gastin was a hottie and she knew Mercy had a thing for the guy. But business was business and relationships were not worth sabotaging such a loving company like AFW.

Mercy lokked away as Chloe thought about Mamouru. She didn't really see how rough he got with Amanda Claire. It did sound a little hot though. She dismissed it though as the Elevator whirred down to the lobby.

"It certainly was not one of our highest rated anythings." Mercy said as she eyed Chloe. "Kelly Conway is a nuisance at best!" She defended her actions. "She's only capable of doing something if it inflates her own ego. I'm not sorry I cancelled it and as long as I have the power, it's never coming back on the air." Mercy huffed. "With what Kelly's been doing to Taylor, she's lucky that's the worst that is happening!"

The doors chimed open and Mercy stepped through. "Isn't that one hyper girl doing pretty good? What's her name? She's like... got a Doctor Seuss name or something. Patty O' Fatty? That's a pretty awful stage name. At least, I hope it's a stage name..."

Mercy shook her head. "The Tension girls and I don't see eye-to-eye much anymore, I'm afraid. They are just all a bunch of weaselly backstabbers down there. They don't have their stuff together like we do."
