"Fast" Lane

[leslie]

A recently new signee, Leslie Lane, was standing in front of Sarah Warfield's office, curious as she is, she moves a bit the door and checks out the furniture Sarah Warfield has.

They could give me some big bucks if I stole some of this..

Leslie then goes closer to the secretary

Excuse me, Miss. But Sarah Warfield will take very long?

Fifteen minutes

Allright thanks, I'll wait inside her office. I am Leslie Lane, didn't she told you she had a meeting with me?

We have had lots of new signees Miss Lane, specially in the Diamonds division. Sarah Warfield has chosen what she considers the best talent.

Oh she considers me good talent? Thanks a lot ;D How about if you go for a coffee?

But I already took a rest

But Sarah Warfield isn't here to scold you, you can take 10 minutes to have a coffee and a smoke, and then come back it's the perfect crime, look take this I give you 2 bucks for coffee. And if you arrive late and Sarah is here I'll tell her you went to the bathroom

the secretary becomes convinced of Leslie's idea

Oh thanks for the money, it's really good to see a friendly female wrestler, all of them are so cocky and self-centered

I am all heart, now rush, leave or Sarah will be here ;D

the secretary goes to fufill the plan Leslie convinced her off, as a streetsmart smile pops in Leslie's face

Now that she has left, let's see what they got

Leslie starts looking for moneyworth items, she finds a personal XWA ballpen, a XWA watch, a unreleased Best Of Diamonds XWA DVD, Leslie hears steps and puts all this items into her sportsbag and she sits on the couch with an angelical face.

Hello Miss Warfield, I am one of your new employees

Leslie stands up as Sarah Warfield appears, she keeps a streetwise smile ;D

[Sarah Warfield]

*Raised Eyebrow*

Something kinda funny about this one. She thinks...

Not the youngest lady around, Sarah can get a gut feeling when something fishy. She could tell it from the fact that the secretary wasn't around, yet this new young lass was. It's only been a few weeks since she was hired as the Diamond Division's new commish and already she was helping to bring in new talent to an already talented grid of ladies.

You must be...Leslie, right? It's a pleasure...

She greets the girl with and extended hand for a shake...

[leslie]

Leslie then realizes Sarah's face expression and she changes her streetwise smile, to a more serious look

Yes, I am Leslie, Leslie Lane, one of your new employees.

Leslie shakes Sarah's hand, however an Ace falls from her sleeve Leslie freaks for a second

Oh, this is a lucky thingy, you know the Amazonians have crocodile tooths hanging from their necks, and I have an Ace inside the sleeve ;D

Leslie thinks she has fixed the situation

The pleasure is all mine. Mrs. Warfield, I really hope I will not dissapoint you, after all I was chosen by you. Nice furniture you have, in what shop did you bought them? ;D

The secretary comes back and she gasps seeing Sarah Warfield there with Leslie

Oh poor woman, she was about to burst up like a balloon, you don't mind she went to the bathroom don't you? ;D

the secretary winks Leslie, and Leslie giggles. Sarah Warfield stays there with her eyebrows raised, there's something funny and strange about Leslie Lane

[Sarah Warfield]

Well, I guess that's alright then. Soooo...what can I do for you today, Leslie?

[leslie]

Leslie didn't really knew how to answer to that question.

Well, I'd like to ask you, how do Diamonds react when they are swindled?

Sarah Warfield raises her left eyebrow as Leslie puts her angelical face

Just joking, just joking, you know that I... NOBODY!!! Would ever try to swindle girls, just stupid fearless hobos ;D

Leslie then takes out a ballpen from her sports bag, it seems that is a golden ballpen..

Hey girl life behind table and XWA management must be a pain, sign your hirings and firings with style, for being you I offer you this authentic golden ballpen for 50 $.

You might not be a golden girl like Sarah Warfield, but you can have a golden ballpen ;D

Leslie then tries to convince Sarah Warfield's secretary into buying her "golden" ballpen

[Sarah Warfield]

Are you trying to sell my secretary a pen?

She was, Sarah just had to actually reconfirm it.

I think we should have hired you to be in charge of XWAshop.net instead. Then again...maybe not.

Remembering the quip about "swindling" and all, it dawned on her that it'd probably be a good idea to keep this one as far away from anything of value as possible, especially goods and merchandise.

She'd probably make a killing on Canal Street though that's for sure.

(Note: Canal Street is the hot-bed in New York City for bootlegs. knock-offs and otherwise sketchy merchandise, and incidentally a big tourist spot. )

So, are you ready to get into action this upcoming season, Leslie? You do realize that you'll be selling more wrestling moves than you will be Mont Blancs I presume?

[leslie]

Leslie giggles as she takes away the pen

Oh well, yeah I was trying to sell her a pen, however because I like your secretary I made such a cheap offer, if she was someone else I'd sell the ballpen for 100 $ ;D

Leslie winks at the secretary as she keeps giggling.

Of course I am ready for action Miss Warfield, one low blow here, one eye rake there, and BAM! Diamond Champion, I really love that belt Miss Warfield, it's worth 10 grand!

Leslie sees the look in Sarah's eyes that say: "you wouldn't sell the belt would you?"

.... But of course the belt money isn't what matters to me, it's the pride that gives saying to everyone: "I am a Diamond Champ" Miss Warfield you won't regreat having put your eyes on me, I promise I'll work my way to the top, and I will make you look like the great bureaucrat you are ;D

A messenger comes into the scene, he leaves a package for Miss Warfield, however he bumps into Leslie

Oh sorry Miss!

No problems handsome

the guy leaves as Leslie giggles again, Leslie then shows a wad of cash and throws a wallet to the bin

My old wallet, I need a new one for my new life in XWA ;D

However that wallet wasn't certainly old.... Sarah was having a bad thought about what kind of woman she has put inside the XWA headquarters, Leslie stays there smiling and then she is about to leave

So you need me for something else Miss Warfield? ;D

[Sarah Warfield]

Aside from having security give you a coat check before you leave?

Not much at the present moment. It's still a bit slow right now, getting new contracts done up and renewing old ones. I guess I should let you know that we're be still doing tour shows even though it's the off-season, so when things are all finalize you may get a chance to step into the ring sooner than you think.

That was an exciting prospect in and of itself there, the fact that wrestlers wouldn't have to wait until the start of the 2008 season to actually get some ring time...

Other than that there's not much else to inform you of. I do appreciate you stopping by though, Leslie. I love the initiative you have!

Even if there is an ulterior motive behind it...

[leslie]

Thanks Miss Warfield I'll do the best to not dissapoint you ;D

Leslie leaves the scene as the messenger guy bumps into her again

Have you seen my wallet? I think I lost it when I bumped with you!

Vas ist ein wallet? Ich Englischt nicht verstehen. C'jekova? ;D

the messenger guy believes the lie that Leslie is an Eastern European immigrant, and he leaves.

Leslie again proves her streetsmart skills
