A moderately unpleasant welcome (for Tatyina)

It was starting to become apparent that AFW wasn't exactly the place to strike out on your own without any assistance or prior knowledge. Unfortunately for Adrian, most of her knowledge about wrestling came from back in America, here it was a completely different style to what she trained in, martial artists seemed to be commonplace perfectly content on wrecking someone's ribcage with kicks, for kicks.

But if she didn't know that much at least it wasn't too much trouble to find someone who did. A bit of research into the matter, mostly following the rumours of who's got the biggest non-satanic group going around that would appreciate her “strategies”, which counted out the Hours Heresy, the Era of Hell Or was it the Hour of Hell? Adrian thought to herself.

She had come to this hotel in Tokyo on a bit of a gamble, if she'd gotten her facts right then who she needed to see was on the other side of this door. Gently knocking on it, she heard footsteps soon after, and once the door was open she began to introduce herself.

“Hi! I'm Adrian, I'm kind of sort of new here. I was trained in Philly and this is my first time full contract not pay by appearance fed, but everyone here's in their own sort of cliques you know it's weird. Like the Hour of Hell guys, they're really crazy and I don't know whether I'd fit in there 'cause I don't really like cutting my own wrists with a razor, I've cut my own scalp open with one once and it wasn't nice, best avoid blood altogether. Anyway I was here because I've done a bit of snooping, no that's a stupid word, investigating! Yeah, that's it: investigating. So I did a bit of investigating and it told me that you've got a big group but you can always make it bigger so what I'm asking is can I join?”

Morrigan sat in the hotel room on the bed. She tapped her finger against her chin and looked at the television that was currently off. She was dressed in her maids outfit despite being currently off duty. She had decided to take her subordinates out for some kind of convention or other. Babd seemed mildly interested and Morrigan was curious to see if she had the kind of touch that her master, Lukretia Von Creuzfeldt had when it came to attracting new slaves.

Unfortunately for Adrian, the investigation had not exactly led her to where she wanted to be. Lukretia's secretary, Hilde Von Creuzfeldt had not understood what the girl meant by group. She had heard that the maids were going off to some place looking for people of some kind and assumed that Adrian had been with them. So she politely gave the girl the hotel and room where the three maids could be reached and went on with her day.

When the knock came, Morrigan shifted to move but Babd hopped up. "Is Macha back?' She questioned. The black haired maid had gone out on 'reconnaissance' Mission and a food run. As Badb tried to hop tot he door, Morigan stuck out her foot and tripped the girl. She then stepped onto her and pst her and opened the door to see a girl dressed up as well.

Not half bad. Morrigan mused. Macha seems to be a pretty good judge But before she could go any further, the girl was off talking a mile a minute and the red headed Maid's eyes widened. Well the story seemed odd enough but Morrigan grinned. "Oh? You seem awfully eager to join us. Do you think you have what it takes?" She said not quite understanding. "I mean most people don't willingly want to enter into such a group." Babd suddenly hopped up. "No wait!" She said. "M-maybe she's like me? "Come in! Come in!" She beckoned Adrian in further. Morrigan glared at Babd, who retracted, partly in fear and partly in shame.

"Well.." Morrigan said. "Let's at least see what you've got, ok?" She said waving Adrian in.

"Okay... I don't know you." Adrian said, slightly confused by the smaller girl in a maid outfit beckoning her in. The maid outfits in general were kind of wierd. The office worker had said something about maids working for Lukretia, so maybe she was out for the moment and left these two in charge. Trying to figure it all out was put back to a second priority as she was brought in. Trying to resist the urge to jump on the bed, perhaps the Red Bull and Skittles combo was a bad idea.

"So what's the test gonna be, is it going to be like those hazing rituals where I have to ride a unicycle down a hallway shouting "I AM THE MOON" because I've only shouted that once and that was in DnD where I got one of those potions that make you lie really well so I thought I'd try it out and it turns out I got about 50 people worshipping me and begging for decent tides before the potion run off, that was fun. Where was I? Oh! Tests! So by 'show me what you've got' does that mean a slideshow or what I've got in the bag, because I didn't really know what I'd have to do so I brought a selection of stuff, there's probably some choclate in there. I mean the only other thing could be a match which is gonna be kind of awkward because I haven't been able to get one yet, seriously this company, I get pulled up to the main roster and they don't even give me one lousy match, what the hell? Unless you guys have some connections to management here and I was fucking lucky to get the hotel room number from, who was it? Hilder, Hilda? Ugh my German's gotten worse ever since I left Philly, I only learnt it because we had a swiss teacher and everyone else was learning French to try and get close to him so I thought learning german might make me stand out but it turned out he had a girlfriend who could probably kick my ass so that kind of went no-where." She continued to talk in an energy drink and sugar assissted burst of energy, not noticing that the red head who had let her in seemed to start twitching after 15 seconds of talking non-stop

Babd's eyes widened in confusion as Adrian began to ramble on. She sat against the bed, looking with wide eyes at the girl. Morrigan, meanwhile listened without looking very interested. After she finished, Morrigan furrowed her brow. "No... ok... Listen, I don't know if you managed to fool Macha or what but there's no need to talk that much. Hazing? Yeah you're probably getting hazed but you should know that already." Morrigan stepped over to Adrian and held out her hand. "First off. Give me the chocolate." She demanded with a quick smirk.

"And we can't really continue with the hazing until we get back tot he AFW. My mistress wouldn't allow me to keep you around unless you fit in with the group so, I guess, a match will do. But it won't be easy and there will be consequences for failure." She said with a serious tone.

"But... why exactly do you want to join us? Honestly I thought Macha was going to look for some more cosplay girls so we could have a nice group for when we go down to the con later. I never thought she'd find someone interested in joining us for real."

Adrian's normalsmile turned into a frown and the first demand. She had said she had chocolate but would it have killed her to say "please?". The rest of what she said sort of blured together as she rummaged through her back, something about hazing, consequences for failing, something about a mistress wow, they really are going for the kinky maid theme here Adrian could hazard a guess as to where this was going as she pulled out a half-eaten chocolate bar. Handing it over she grumbled under her breath before making a realisation.

"Wait, con? That thing was today!? I don't have all my stuff ready! How am I supposed to get someone to autograph my death note if I left it back in my locker? And that was only for people I don't like, my decent autograph paper's stuck there too! And I won't have enough money to buy all the merch I want! ARGH!"

Morrigan took the chocolate and passed it off to Babd who took a few nibbles off of it so that the part that Adrian had eaten off was now gone. She then yanked it away from Babd and took her own larger bite. As she chewed on the chocolate bar and listened to Adrian, the door opened and a black haired maid stepped in. "I couldn't find anyone suitable. Please forgive me, Mistress." Macha said with a low bow.

She then raised an eyebrow at Adrian's appearance. Morrgain then furrowed her brow. "So you didn't find this one?" She said pointing at Adrain. Macha shook her head. "Though she did say something about Hilde..." As Morrigan contemplated it,she looked at Adrian. "Yes, it was today. That's why we came here. But we're leaving now."

"What!?" Babd cried out only to receive a swift backhand from the redhead. The blond sniffled but lowered her head in quiet resignation. "We were going to come here on our day off but something much more interesting has come up." She said as she smirked at Adrian. "Accompany us back tot he AFW arena and maybe we'll consider your desire to join our ranks."

"Hey, no need to talk about me like I'm not standing right here!" She said, having calmed down somewhat from her initial outburst, but still the new maid had cleared up a bit of the confusion: if they were planning on going to the con but needed a few extra people, or a can of mace to get through the trains.

"Well it doesn't make that much of a difference when we do the whole initiation thing but I'm gonna be pissed if it turns out I missed an opportuntiy to make Heart jokes at Kubo. Although I do need to get all my stuff sorted out if we're gonna do a tryout so instead of you accompanying me to there, I make my own way and I'll see you outside the gym area if it's free. Good? good, bye!" She said, not even waiting for an response before rushing through the door, heading off to the arena.

Morrigan grwled at Adrian's spontaneous nature and inability to speak properly. She reached over and slapped macha as hard as she could, leavign a stinging handprint on the calm girl. She rubbed it carefully and kept her eyes down. "Thank you, Mistress.' She said simply.

"Awwww!" babd cried. "Me too?" She said with wide eyes. Morrigan simply through the last few bites of the candy bar at her and stepped away. "Let's go. We'll show this bitch that she doesn't know whats he's getting into.

The three of them then took off and went back tot he AFW arena and to the gym where they woudl await Adrian once more.

One quick rush back to the arena locker rooms later:

Adrian had changed out of her pokemon outfit for something a bit simpler. A plain red T shirt, black shorts, her brown hair tied into a ponytail, "lucky" elbow pad on her right arm, regular one on her left, bag of tricks to one side as she awaited the "maids 3" as she had just nicknamed them to show up for her tryout. This would be her first actual session with anything at stake so she didn't want to leave anything to chance. Easier said than done when you don't know what 1 kinky redhead and her two servants had planned but Adrian liked to think she had all the bases covered. The ring ropes were tought enough to be used as an improptu spring board, just as she liked it and apart from that one spar in the water no-one really knew what she could do in a ring. The element of surprise might just be in her corner.

Morrigan, Macha and Babd awaited Adrian inside the ring. They had not changed out of their maid outfits and so they were ready for whatever Adrian came to the ring with. When the cosplayer approached, Morrigan looked at her. "I still don't understand why you want to join this group." She said. Though in reality she had no particular influence with her Master, Lukretia Von Crezfeldt, and her group known as Meister. Still, she might be able to find out what it felt like to do to someone else, what Lukretia had done with her. She would turn this Adrian girl into a slave like Macha and Babd and show Lukretia that she was more than just a maid herself.

"But... Let's see what you got. Maybe you should lock up with Babd. She's the weakest after all. If you can't even beat her, then you're pretty useless to us." Babd stepped forward with a faint blush on her cheeks and bowed to Adrian politely.
