A meeting in Hell (Rheena and Era of Hell)

There was another long silence of Rheena as she watched Cerbera, getting her name now and hearing her question, but not responding right away. In fact, Rheena first went through her locker, removing an average sized, dark green gym bag, her normal clothing inside and a few special items for her 'practices.' Throwing it over her shoulder, Rheena would adjust her glasses one final time before stepping up, slowly going to follow Cerbera wherever she would go. Rheena had her own plans, but she would still want to learn about the Era of Hell and meet it's members. She wondered... did they meet somewhere special? What was their Code? What special payments would she recieve? And of course... would it really be worth it?

Putting her questions aside, Rheena just responded honestly, still blunt and empty in tone, but never throwing a lie, like she spoke simply just the facts. "I stay at a motel uptown. It's been 4 months now that I've lived there. However... I would like to remain with you for the moment to prove my capabilities if the oppurtunity arises, and to understand more about your organization." The way she spoke, it almost proved to be like a machine, and Rheena never branched off from such a path, walking in a rigid, strait line behind Cerbera, keeping her distance though from Shanari. ...She didn't trust her.

" Alright, looks like you'll be taking the couch, Shanari. "

Shanari looked up, blinking innocently, her eyes didn't really aknowledge the movements infront of her, they were immidiatly focussed on Cerbera.

" Okay. "

Shanari wasn't really pleased but she had nothing to say after all, she couldn't live at her own place due to many reasons. Cerbera had turned her head to look over her shoulder at Rheena.

" I'll answer any question you have. Hmm.. I was also wondering. Would you be able to relax my muscles in my right arm, it's been slightly damaged after a match, or is that not part of your profession? "

Shanari would suddenly look behind her, thinking she saw something before running back to the other two, waking besides Rheena now though not looking at her, or anything for that matter.

Rheena blinked a few times at that, actually looking at Shanari as she was told to take the couch, seeing how the girl would react. She really seemed loyal to Cerbera, and didn't even question her from the start, were many of the members like this? Rheena wasn't going to break and become someone's lapdog, but she did quickly feel a sense of loyalty building in her. She would choose to fight for the Era of Hell if she liked what she saw, but by no means would she take orders like a dog; she was much fiercer than that and was a strong tactician, fighter, and often fought only for herself.

"I don't think this is the proper place..." Rheena started, knowing that they wouldn't have the time to themselves like this much longer as she answered to Cerbera's question, telling her subtly that she had a bad feeling about things at the moment. "However, not only do I know chiropractics, but acupuncture, Balinese work, Breema, Hilot, Myofascial release, Shiatsu, Trigger point, and traditional and stone massages. I do have an LMT after all. So take your pick." With a small sense of pride breaking in her tone, ever so slightly fading from her colder pitch, Rheena went to list off the many skill assets she had in her work, even staying she was a licenses massage therapist. Though she failed to mention that she was was one, and not anymore. After all, that degree was revoked due to a certain incident that helped forge her into the cold woman she was now.

" Yes Rheena, You're quite right. There seem to be an increase of people gunning at the Era of Hell lately, so you'll be having plenty of action.. I do hope I can ask you to perform your impressive sounding skills on my body to keep it in tip top shape before and after matches.. I do have to make long hours planning things. "

Cerbera smirked, shifting her eyes around to see if no one was following her, then forgot something and turned to Shanari.

" Which reminds me.. Shanari, I know this sounds odd but with Rheena protecting me, I wish for you to be as loyal to Rheena as you are to me, please. "

Shanari stared up at Cerbera, then back at Rheena, closing her eyes and bowing infront of Rheena.

" Yes Cerbera. I will treat Rheena like a queen.. "

Cerbera suddenly smiled, moving up to stand infront of Shanari and gently stroked through her hair, who started to purr all of a sudden, Cerbera turning her head to mutter to Rheena.

" Shanari had gotten minor brain damage in a match that had reached her mental state and driven it into Chaos somehow, the doctors say she'll be back to normal soon.. She will do anything for me because I am the only one which actually cares about her too much. And as I told her, she will now be loyal to you and will have your back.. Won't you, Shanari? "

Shanari slowly stepped back from the stroking and turned back to Rheena.

" Yes, I will do anything I can do make you feel welcome, miss Rheena. "

Her dull eyes stared straight into Rheena's before she turned her attention back to Cerbera to follow her.

So, the Era of Hell had its share of enemies it seemed. That didn't surprise Rheena, she wasn't planning on making friends anyway, so it didn't matter to her, and she doubted she would really make any in such a dark organization. However, it did seem she would make her share of allies at best, most who she simply planned to use when needed, and would otherwise just avoid. Cerbera was a mild exception since she was the leader, but otherwise, she had no intentions of getting along much with the people around here. The way Rheena saw it, The Era of Hell was simply a buffer to keep her protected if something went out of hand. But even then, Rheena doubted she would need it, she was more than confident in her abilities.

Upon hearing what had to be said about Shanari, Rheena simply raised a brow, truly not caring for this young woman having such damage, viewing Shanari as more of a hinderance than anything right now; simply a servant, nothing else. When she bowed, Rheena just looked back at her with that icy gaze, turning back around like the woman wasn't so much more than trash to her. "Then when we get the chance, I want to train against you Shanari and see what you are capable of." Wanting to see her abilities, and see if Shanari was even worth having around, Rheena made this bold statement, saying it like an order towards her more than anything, casually adjusting her glasses while she followed Cerbera to wherever she was being taken.

Cerbera was wondering where they should go, the night was approaching so she could head home with the two to show Rheena her place and where she could actually train, though if Rheena wanted to train with her now.. It seemed like the perfect time to do so, while the petty little face wrestlers were going home or are already there. She did however, look over her shoulder when she noticed Shanari move, who once again bowed to Rheena and said with the cutest of voices.

" As you wish, Lady Rheena.. Do you wish for me to use my real style or just basic submission moves? Because it seems my lady uses submission holds to overwhelm her opponents. "

Even though Shanari didn't seem interested at first, she did notice the frequent submission holds, though she might be wrong about Rheena.. Still, her eyes trailed away from Rheena, almost in a sad way while she turned back to Cerbera, as if wondering if she should become some kind of test subject to put more damage on because she knows what Sarah Gatt had done to her despite her mental problems.

Cerbera slowly started to glance away, releasing a sigh when she heard Shanari's words and decided to throw a few words of her own, turning around completely to face Rheena and Shanari, nodding at both of them.

" Well, we have two options. We can go home right now and answer any question with detail or if you wish to train with Shanari now, Rheena, we can go to the gym. "

To be addressed in such a way, it felt... very appealing. Rheena never was the type to desire having followers and people bend to her whim and do as she said, she simply broke people down for her desires. But when she heard Shanari's words and how that rather... cute voice of hers seemed so loyal, Rheena couldn't help but take an attraction to it, almost feeling like giving a rare smile of hers, but instead holding it back. "Your real style, Shanari. But that can wait, I'd rather you take me to where you consider 'home.'" Rheena spoke in a very calm manner, no emotion in her blunt words. Though she tended to say 'home' like it was a rather alien sort of word to it, like she didn't beleive they had one. The woman was simply sceptical really, but it still left her with questions as she decided to follow for now.

And so, without question for now, Rheena decided to follow. She finally lowered her guard a little, even brushing her green hair aside as she let out a calm sigh before changing her glasses to a diferent pair, black framed and more rectangular than her other. "Tell me, Cerbera. Do other members stay there as well? Or do you all have seperate locations? Or perhaps you have a place you prefer meeting?" Wanting to ask a few questions on the way, she would leave the staduim with the two as she followed, but not without asking her share of concerns.

" Yes, lady Rheena, please follow us to your place to stay. "

Shanari bowed to Rheena, as if she was the leader, lifting her body back straight up and turned to walk besides her and after Cerbera, her dull eyes staring at one of Cerbera's pigtails waving from side to side, her eyes following it side to side to side.. Shanari seemed quite innocent and cute, the way she acted though once she was in a match, that would definitely change for the worse.. Meanwhile, Cerbera led them outside the federation and headed home with them, answering Rheena's answers quite easily.

" Shanari and you are the only people staying with me, the others have their own places, if there is a meeting required we usually get a text message from the main leader. Untill then, you two have to play nice with eachother if I have important stuff to attend to. Think you two can stand eachother? "

Without a seconds thought, Shanari nodded and spoke out softly.

" I will treat lady Rheena properly and she will have no trouble with me... I will do my best to make her feel like home. "

With a subtle smirk, Rhenna actually rolled her icy blue eyes, drifting out a soft sigh like she hardly cared. It was going to take her awhile to learn to follow directions from someone else, seeing as how she was a loner type, but that most certainly didn't mean she was not going to try. After all, she was enjoying some of what she heard, and if she actually remained and listened to what someone had to say, that was a miricle in itself, so there must have been something good about this Era of Hell.

"As I mentioned, I do have my own place." Rheena said bluntly, making sure they didn't get any ideas that she needed there help. She hated being dependent on others, and she wouldn't let people make that assumption. She was only going to be Cerbera's personal bodyguard because she knew it would give her plenty of excuses to 'break' people. "But I'll stay for tonight. I could learn a thing or two." Her eyes then drifted towards Shanari, as her tone suddenly took a very... unsettling pitch, as if she was planning something. "Not to mention... I'm sure I can personally teach Shanari a thing or two as well..." There was definettly a hidden meaning to her words, and it certainly sounded like it wasn't good...

" True that but this way you're easier reachable. "

Cerbera walked towards a rather large house, almost perfect in every way. She stood infront of the door and searched for the keys in her pocket, taking them out and pushed one of it into the small hole, twisting her hand to the side to unlock the door and open it, stepping inside and taking the keys out while she headed for the living room to start turning on all the lights.

Meanwhile, Shanari was walking right besides Rheena when she heard her, releasing the cutest of sounds as reply of Rheena's words, not exactly knowing what do say.

" Eep... I'll.. Take note to that, thank you. "
