INTRO: Well it finally happened.....Shawn Storm suffered his first loss in the NEWA, and it couldn't have happened at a worse time for the former Dynasty Wrestling World Champion. With just one week until he steps into the ring with the first lady of the NEWA, Shawn is realing after being double teamed and pinned by Ice Kold and Xander Gates. But he has to put that behind him, and he has to turn his attention to Roll The Dice. Because for the first time he gets an opportunity at NEWA gold, and it's the biggest prize in the NEWA...the Regional Championship. But something else has to be weighing heavy on Shawn's mind...and that is the performance in the NEWA of his future bride Tyger Lilly. Once again at Revolution she lost her match, and rumors are circulating that she has all but left the NEWA as a wrestler. To say the pressure is building on Shawn as he heads into the biggest match in his short NEWA career is a huge understatement. But we all know that no one performs under pressure better then Shawn Storm, so it's time to once again join the 'Superstar' as he prepares for his huge title match.

PART 1:

The scene opens to the sound of running water...definetly running water from a shower. As the scene becomes more clear and everything comes into focus we find ourselves inside a filthy gym room. Even the lighting in the room is poor, but the luggage sitting on one of the tables in the room seems to be very nice. Rather then being a old gym bag, it's a nice three piece set of travel luggage. A moment passes before a unidentifiable noise is heard. As the scene drifts to the left the always recognizable Shawn Storm steps into the room from a small hallway. He is wearing nothing but a towel and is soaking wet.

"Take your time babe," he says as he walks over to his suit case and takes out another towel.

He begins to dry himself off, but we still hear the water running in the background.

"Alright, I'll be out in a few minutes," a reply from the shower is heard.

Storm begins drying off with the second towel before something catches his eye. He swings the towel over his back and hangs it around his shoulders. He reaches over on the table and picks up the NEWA Regional Championship. He stares at the title, not blinking.

"Regardless of what happened tonight, you will be mine at Roll the Dice. Nothing that Ice Kold, or Xander Gates did tonight will change that. Hell, it took both of them to defeat me tonight...and Vanity won't have that extra help. She won't have the backup like the Antihero and Gates had. It will be one on one, with the gold on the line," he says with a twisted smile on his face.

Shawn picks up the NEWA Regional title and holds it in both of his hands. He looks at his own reflection in the gold and tilts the title so that the glare sparkles in his eyes.

"I can hear the time ticking away until you are officially mine. The time is running down like sand through an hour glass, and I know Vanity can feel the pressure coming down on her. Even with all the time she's had off to rest and prepare for this match, it won't matter. Even though I have been booked week in and out against NEWA talent, it won't matter. Because this is what I do, I show up in a organization and I set the place on fire. I blaze through the talent, and go straight for the biggest and best championship that particular place has to offer. Then I earn the right to challenge that champion, and I beat that champion. I take that championship and add it to my list of accomplishments. The NEWA is not going to be any differnt, and in that same respect neither will Vanity. Like the other past champions I have dethroned, she will fall at my will." Shawn says while looking at Vanity's championship.

The sound of the shower in the background finally stops. Shawn sets the NEWA Regional title back on the table and starts drying off again as Tyger Lilly walks into the room. Like Shawn, she is only wearing a towel, and is using a second towel to dry her long blond hair.

"Do you feel better after taking a shower?" she asks Storm.

"I'm still pissed off about losing that match. But what could I do with a partner like Jackson? I was handicapped from the start against Xander Gates and Head Cold. But really I just want to put all that behind me and move on. I can't really think about that right now with my title match coming up at the Roll The Dice webcast," he says as he grins thinking about the title match.

"You could only do your best in that two on one match. I'm glad your over it and looking ahead to Vanity and the title match. Besides, winning that title is more important then any tag team match." she says as she wraps her hair up with the towel.

Shawn looks over in Lilly's direction, "You know what else is important?"

"What is that?" she asks in a reply.

"Well what is your decision regarding the NEWA? Are you going to stay here, or are the rumors true? Are you leaving?" he asks her.

Lilly looks surprised at the question and pauses for a moment, "Oh, I didn't know if you had heard about those rumors or not....and I'm really sorry that I didn't talk to you about the situation first. But I had to make the decision on my own, and I think I have made up my mind for sure."

"Well, what did you decide?" he askes.

"Well I have thought about it for awhile now," she says, "And I'm going to leave the NEWA as a wrestler, but I will make attend the shows with you. I will even be in your corner if you need me to, but I won't be a full time wrestler here anymore."

Shawn looks disappointed at her answer, "Well I respect your decision Lilly, and you know you could have talked to me about it. I support whatever you want to do, and if the NEWA isn't for you then you don't have to wrestle here."

A smile crosses Lilly's face and she gives Storm a hug, "You don't know how much I love you! But we shouldn't be thinking about my career right now, we need to prepare you for this match at Roll The Dice. Winning that championship is all that matters baby."

"Well I'm just facing Vanity, it's not like she's a real champion or anything. She's just a woman," Shawn says with a smile on his face.

"Hey! Is that all I am to you, just a woman. Not a real wrestler, or title contender...." Lilly snaps at Shawn.

"You know I'm only playing," Shawn says as he picks up Lilly and starts carrying her towards the shower.

"Hey, where are we going?" Lilly asks.

"To prepare...I need to work on my endurance," Shawn says as they go out of sight in the hallway.

The scene fades out as we hear the water once again running the shower. A few giggles can also be heard as we fade to black. Scene closed.

PART 2:

The scene opens as the sun shines brightly through a open window on to a pile of clothes laying on a carpet floor. A pair of thongs, a bra, a t-shirt and a pair of boxers are easy to pick out. The scene raises from the floor and up to a bed...a bed that has Shawn Storm and Lilly laying in it, both awake and both looking into each others eyes.

"You know I love you," Storm says with a smile.

"I love you too baby," she says, "with me retiring from NEWA, maybe we could focus on us having a family soon."

"You know, that's the first thing that I thought about when you finally made your decision." he says with a smile, "but the time will have to be right."

"I'm sorry for the way I've acted Shawn," she says rolling over and hugging him. "I should be more supportive in your career, and I promise I will be."

"Can you believe it baby? We are counting down the days until Roll the Dice now, and that means we are just days away until I take over the NEWA. That regional title will look even better around my waist when it's officially mine. But it still looks good on me even if it's not officially mine..." he says as he picks up the title from the floor. He lays the title across his waist, "What do you think?"

Lilly smiles, "Looks like it belongs there."

"You know something, I thought the samething at Revolution. That's the only reason I lifted it from Vanity's locker room. It just doesn't look like it belongs with her. But me, I was born to carry around big championship titles. It's almost a part of my wardrobe," he says with a smile.

"Vanity isn't much of a champion anyways," she says, "I mean when does she wrestle other than when she has to defend the title. I heard she spends alot of time under Draco's desk and that's the reason she became champion in the first place."

Shawn laughs at Lillys comments, "You know something, that sad part is that is the truth. The two weeks leading up to this event Vanity got to kick back and rest for this encounter. But me? I had to wrestle week in and week out, and this past week had to wrestle a handicap match against Gates and the Antihero. But I'm fine with that, because not even Draco can save Vanity at Roll The Dice. Bottomline is the fact that this title is already mine, regardless of who Vanity can persuade to help her."

"Draco can't even buy two ply toilet paper," she says laughing, "Vanity has no chance if she's expecting him to save her or her title."

"You also wasn't giving it up to Draco," he says, "so Vanity has that advantage over what you requested from the boss. But even if she is banging him, and Ali Khadafi, it won't be enough. This is a championship match, and no one goes into title matches more prepared then I do. No one steps up in the title matches like Shawn Storm, and this go around will not be any differnt then the ones in the past. I know Vanity will be prepared as well with all the time off she got, but that just won't be enough. When she rolls the dice on January tenth, it's coming up snake eyes. Bringing her title reign to an end."

"Hey," she says pausing trying not to smile, "Khadafi is kinda cute if you like mean ugly monsters. Vanity and him would make a great couple. Maybe i should play cupid."

"I don't think they need you," he says, "Khadafi is already trying to get in her pants....if he hasn't already been there. But that's not important anyway, and I really don't want to think of jiggy gangsta and Vanity doing anything. As a matter of fact, the only thing I need to think about when it comes to sex is you and I."

Lilly smiles trailing his chest with her fingers as she kisses him. "Well with less stress from NEWA for me, I'm sure I'll be more than happy to help you relieve your stresses." She smirks.

Shawn smiles, "Well I may need you to help relieve a lot of stress this week as we get closer to Roll the Dice. But afterwards, we'll only be celebrating over, and over, and over. I just feel bad for Vanity, after she loses the title I wonder if Draco will let her crawl back under the desk?"

"Of course," shes says, "he keeps his pets close don't you know?"

Shawn rolls over on top of Lilly, causing the cover to slide off them alittle exposing a flash of nudity. He stays on top of her though and holds her hands down.

"Well are you going to let me wear the title at our Feburary wedding, or only let me wear the title durning our honeymoon?" he asks with a smirk.

"Neither," she says, "it's about us when we go on our honey moon besides nude beach remember?" she smirks.

He smiles leaning and kissing his fiance, "I'm so happy that everything is back to normal, and we are moving on with our relationship. Everything is falling into place....a new title and a new outlook on life. Two thousand-seven is starting out just perfect for us."

"I agree baby," she says, "I couldnt be happier."

"Well you know what would make me happy? Becoming the official NEWA Regional Champion, and embarassing Vanity at this webcast. Do you think I can do that?" he asks jokingly.

"Of course you can baby," she says. "You can do anything you desire, you're awesome Shawn, why do you think I fell in love with you?"

"The same reason every woman falls in love with me," he answers, "because of the great sex."

Shawn smiles at Lilly and gives her an innocent wink as he keeps her pinned down. After she gives him a look of scorn he leans in and gives her a kiss on the forehead, then on the cheek, then on the neck, then on the collar bone.

"You know," she says looking up at him, "it'd be easy right now to bite your neck."

He smiles at the comment, "You know....it would be easy to have my way with you right now...just like I'm going to have my way with Vanity at the Roll The Dice, and no that's not a sexual comment towards Vanity....justy you."

"You better not think of Vanity that way," Lilly says, as she struggles to get free.

Shawn just looks at for a moment and then starts to kiss her neck and face making Lilly struggle to get free even more.

"Let me up Shawn!" she demands, "I'm serious!"

I know you are baby!" he says laughing.

The scene closes as the two wrestle on the bed, eventually knocking the NEWA Regional Championship to the floor. The scene fades to black and then comes to close. Scene closed.

ENDING: Even with Tyger Lilly leaving the active roster in NEWA, Shawn is still in high spirits and very focused on Roll The Dice and the NEWA Regional Championship. It looks like the decision has really strenghted the bond between Storm and Lilly as well, and it sounds like they have reset the wedding date for sometime in Feburary. So with so much going right in the new year, can Vanity really stop Shawn Storm? Can she successfully defend her title and turn back the biggest star to ever enter the NEWA? It's going to be a hard match to call either way, but no one can deny that Storm is Mr. Clutch when it comes to big matches, big events, and big titles.
