As Jeff tests the ropes in the ring. The lights flicker on and off with purple and dark blue lights. "Lovefurypassionenergy" blasts throughout the arena as Lita comes out from the backstage to the sounds of cheers from her fans in the arena.

(::Ring Announcer Lillian Garcia::) Ladies and gentlemen, this match is for one fall, and is a qualifying match for the AwF Intergender U.S. Tornament! Already in the ring, Jeff! And making her way to the ring, Lita!! Lita came running down from the ramp and slid right into the ring. She looked over at Jeff Hardy, then climbed to the top to be graced by the sea of fans cheering her on.

||::|| Prologue ||::||

That was the moment Lita arrived within AwF. Since then, she's made some career choices. Some were the best moves of her life and some… weren't the best. But her loyalty has found it's place. AwF is her home. HER home. She's a legend, and has set to print a legacy all her own. And she'll be damned if she's going to let someone like Victoria and her group of Anti-AwF vagabonds try and ruin what she's come to call home. Their contempt for what she, Jericho, Raven, Triple H, Sable and others all stand for… is something that Amy isn't going to stand for. And if it means taking out Victoria herself in a Clockwork Orange House of Fun? So be it.

Scene 1 - Giving eXtreme a new name

It's 110 degrees outside, and Lita has her hair pulled back into a high sloppy bun to expose her neck as the sweat trickles down between her shoulder blades. A voice is pushing her on as she makes one final stretch and clasps her hand against the red rock of the Arizona mountains. She pulls herself up, reaching the plateau where her climbing partner pulls out a terry cloth towel and a water bottle. Lita takes a deep breath before patting her face down with the towel, leaning back on her free hand with the sun beating down on her and her partner.

]||[ Mountain Climber Julia Sanchez ]||[ You still haven't told me why you up and decided to come climbing…

Lita grins up at Julia before she looks out over the empty desert sand.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Because. On Sunday I have one of the most difficult matches of my life in front of me. If I can defy death by doing something I've never done and succeed, then I have my chances to defy the odds later.

]||[ Mountain Climber Julia Sanchez ]||[ Match?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Professional wrestling.

Julia arches an eyebrow before shrugging and sitting down beside Lita, taking a drink of water.

]||[ Mountain Climber Julia Sanchez ]||[ Don't take this the wrong way or anything, but I never really saw wrestling as a real sport.

Lita laughs, looking over at her.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| I thought the same thing before I actually got into a ring. Sure, we're trained in what we do, and portions are choreographed, but we're still human. Falling twenty feet hurts. We still train, we work four nights a week, 52 weeks a year. There's no such thing as an off-season. A lot of people don't respect us for what we do, or who we are… any time we're nice to somebody or we do something for a good cause, they write us off as PR junkies who are just trying to save face or cover up some scandal. That's why instead of signing autographs and doing all these Pay Per View hyping events, I'm out here.

]||[ Mountain Climber Julia Sanchez ]||[ You're turning down money, public interaction and the glamour of what you do for something like this? Why?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| I don't want to be like the others. I never have. While they're out signing autographs, and doing press conferences… I'd rather be here. Because here, there's no script. There's only one match and it's between you, and nature. And sometimes nature wins, and sometimes you win. But there's no gold plated title, or some memorable pay per view event to capture it. If you win, it's you on top of the world. If you lose? Fall from your destination? You die. It doesn't get more real than that. And that's what I want. I don't want to spend my time wasting my breath over who could have done what and who should have won this and that. Nothing matters except the present. Not the past, and not the future. I just wish the rest of my co-workers understood that fact.

Julia smiles before taking one last drink of her water before she shoves the bottle into her pack, making a motion to the thin trail that winds up the other side of the cliff.

]||[ Mountain Climber Julia Sanchez ]||[ You ready?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| I think I'll wait a bit. You go ahead though, I'll catch up.

She nods and heads off toward the trail as Lita stares out over the open sandy wilderness.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Unfortunately... None of them will ever understand that. It's always, 'well you did this'. That's the past. It can't be changed, it can't be helped. Accept it, and move on. You don't always get a second chance, so why waste your time thinking of what could have been instead of working on what will happen at any given moment? Focus on what you can change, and what you have control over. Like last week. I couldn't control having to defend the tag team titles last week on ReVenge with Rey. So instead of focusing on the fact that I had to team up with Rey again to defend the titles, I focused on doing whatever it was that I had to do to keep the tag team gold around my waist. And again, I don't have any say in what's going to happen at Summer Showdown 2. I have to face Victoria in a Clockwork Orange House of Fun match. I can't change that. So instead of whining and trying to talk Raven into changing the match, I'm simply adapting to it. Victoria may not exactly be Jackie Chan in a bikini, but this isn't something I can say I've got experience in. I mean, this match is something AwF hasn't seen yet. In all honesty, I don't quite understand the entire thing, but I'll figure it all out in due time. What I do know, is Victoria. I know her from my own encounters with her. I know her from our match, from our backstage brawl at Primal Survival. She may be tough, but hey… if all it took was brute strength to make it in this industry, then Goldberg maybe would have been something. But look at the Universal title match. Trish and Rey. No offense, but Chyna could bench press both of them. But compare it. Chyna's unemployed and Rey and Trish are both going for the most prestigious title in AwF history. [drinks some water] This match may very well be one of the ones to steal the show. Lana was right, my match will indeed seal the deal as to if this pay per view is successful. Not to say Trish and Rey don't matter, but one match alone doesn't make a show a success. A death match is simple. A Clockwork Orange House of Fun match is… a bit more complicated. Death match. When you hear that, you can get the basic idea. But you don't have any clue what a Clockwork Orange House of Fun match is. I didn't even have a clue until I was presented with the idea on Mayhem. And with the promise of bloodshed, the fans I'm sure will enjoy it. And they'll enjoy the idea of my winning even more.

Lita picks up her towel and water bottle before standing up and heading down the trail to follow behind her partner.

Scene 2 - One Dark Alley

Lita has since returned into downtown Phoenix Arizona after several hours. The sky has darkened, and Lita is clad in a black leather outfit, her bag hanging at her side. She sighs while walking down the empty sidewalk, ignoring cat calls from half drunken men after their midnight bottle binges. An arm reaches out and yanks her into a dark alley. Yanking herself away, she kicks the person in the stomach and a familiar grunt is heard.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Michael Cole?!

Michael Cole coughs, heaving a bit to get his wind back as Lita glares at him.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| What in the hell is your problem? [stares] Scratch that, what the hell happened to you??

The street light illuminates the two and Michael Cole is filthy. Dirt and random food scraps smeared across his front as if he's worked in a restaurant kitchen without an apron. His left sleeve is torn off and his right is spotted with some dark red splotches, which have been left by a now fat, busted and bruised lip.

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Well I was waiting because I was told you would be back at three… and these guys got mad because I only had 7 bucks on me. Yeah um… [looks embarrassed] they weren't too happy with that.

Lita shakes her head and steps back, leaning against the wall as she looks over at Michael Cole.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| So what do you want?

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Well, I was going to ask you about your upcoming match against Victoria. You know, the Clockwork Orange House of Fun match.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| To be honest, I finally figured out just what this match is going to be.

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Really? What?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| A blood bath. [smirks] It's pretty much an upgraded combination between a cage match, an anarchy rulez match and a last woman standing match. Three matches I am VERY qualified in.

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Aren't you worried about the brutality of this all?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Why? Victoria barely snapped a losing streak she's been on since WrestleMayhem2. Do you think she's going to be able to pull off the biggest upset since Scott Hall and Sean Waltman? What's the worst match she's ever been through? Does she honestly think that what she has what it takes to make it at this level? Come on Cole… she couldn't handle a last woman standing match. Multiply that by like twenty, and that's what Summer Showdown 2 is going to be. She honestly wouldn't have made it through what I put my body through at Primal Survival. Standing up after everything Rey and Lana did to me? She would have been out cold and would have left the main event with an anti-climactic ending. Me however… I had people who had to blink and look twice when it wasn't me who walked away with the Universal title. People couldn't believe it. When conversely, if Victoria loses at Summer Showdown 2? Nobody will be real surprised. Everyone EXPECTS Victoria to lose at Summer Showdown 2. So really, she has nothing to worry about. If she loses, she's meeting expectation. If she barely makes it into the ring, people still will probably look at her the same way. Maybe think less of her, if that's physically possible. Because see, right now nobody understands Victoria's intentions. If she hates AwF, why is she staying? Why is she trying to win an AwF title belt? Does it make any sense? If she doesn't want to be a part of AwF, but she stills wants what AwF can offer. I know she's just going to say that she's doing this to get back at Russo, but what good is it when she's just going to be humiliated by the people she hates most? That's not getting back at Russo or AwF, it's making an ass of herself. But at least she's doing something she's good at ya know Cole? She can make herself look the fool at Summer Showdown 2 and I'll do what I do best, and that's retaining my Women's Championship. She could make this some zia-beh death match and I'd still win. There's just no denying that fact. She may be good at some things, but truth be told? I'm so much better. At everything. I'm better in the ring. I'm in better physical condition, and if I were a whore and I'd done all the men she has, they'd probably say I'm better there too. But I'm one of the only people who's kept herself for one person for her entire career.

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Maybe I'm naïve but Summer Showdown 2 is in New York City. Why are you here in Phoenix?

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| To make people like you actually work to find me? Seriously, I'm here because Phoenix is a lot hotter and it's conditions are tougher. If you work out at something like Bally's in New York City, you're pampered pretty much. Working out in the elements in Arizona puts more of a toll on your body. You have to work harder. Your metabolism increases, your endurance and stamina are tested and pushed further than normal… and you simply get into better shape working in one hundred degree plus heat compared to some set of fancy equipment and air conditioning. I'm not looking for the easy way to do this. I'm not out for some pampering where I have people cater to me. I take care of myself. I don't need someone like Rey to walk around watching my back, I have always been the one to stand on my own two feet. I don't attack people from behind. People feel the need to try and upstage me, and try to make their appearance seem ultra special by talking with me or trying to attack me. And who laughs last? Lita laughs last. Lana Starr tried to attack me before Primal Survival and during my match itself. But who's looking for employment somewhere else and who's still the Women's Undisputed Champion? Lana's joining her cousin and I'm walking into Summer Showdown 2 as the champion. Victoria's attacked me the last two weeks but she was still made the fool when she couldn't take me one on one, face to face. Now the match is bigger, the stage is bigger, and the stakes are higher. How can she expect to not choke this time around? It's simple. She will. Just like everyone else has.

]||[ AwF Interviewer Michael Cole ]||[ Well, that's about all I need to know… so um…

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Geez Cole, go back to your hotel and take a freakin' shower or something… I have a hotel to check into and a plane to catch in the morning.

Lita turns and exits the alley, continuing on as a hotel light is seen a couple blocks down the road.

Scene 3 - At the hotel

Lita's arrived at the hotel, checked in and she's standing in her hotel room with her phone pressed to her ear as she looks out the window over the Phoenix skyline.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| UGH…

Lita shuts her phone, tossing it onto the table as she plunks down onto her bed, falling backwards onto her bed and lying there for a moment.

||( † The.Queen.of.eXtreme±Lita † )|| Well this is just fan-fuckin-tastic isn't it? I absolutely hate time differences…

She sighs, grabbing a pillow and plopping it over her face with an unhappy kick of her foot against the side of her bed.

||( † The.eXtreme.Thoughts.of.±Lita † )|| What's with everyone these days? People always thinking how I'm going to slip up somewhere. How? How in the hell would I slip up? My only slipup was my mistake in November. What happened then isn't going to happen now. I don't care what the critics say, and I don't care what others say. I'm the Women's Undisputed Champion for a reason and it's because I AM the toughest, hardest working female on the AwF roster. Nobody else goes out and does what I do. These are women who would rather go out and have lunch with friends, or get manicures while I'm out busting my ass to get in better physical condition. How would I be the one to slip up? If anything, they're going to be the ones to make the crucial mistakes. Not me. I don't make mistakes. If anything, I'm so damn close to perfect in the ring that it's scary. I proved to Victoria before, she can't stand next to me. Literally. I proved to the New Age Outlaws and to the Outsiders that beating me is impossible. So why do all these other people think that it's going to be any different at Summer Showdown 2? The match is more brutal, more disturbing and violent than before and this is supposed to give Victoria an edge? She might be some whack job, but I'm the crazy one in the ring. I've proven that time and again. Primal Survival? I scared Rey Mysterio shitless and I turned into this cruel, uncaring, heartless bitch. Rey brought out a side of me that I wasn't even aware existed. Unfortunately, in doing so he about was left lying in a blood drenched body bag. Since then, every time someone pushes me to that limit, I turn into this unwavering blood thirsty person. I can't stop it. I can't control it. But what I can do, is let it run it's course. And it doesn't stop until the bell rings. No matter what, that fight continues and I don't stop. That's just who I am. I'm not going to lay down for anybody. I don't care who you are. If I have a goal in mind, or a target... That's what I go for. And I don't stop until I get it, or make sure I keep it as is in this instance. Victoria isn't a challenge. I don't know who gave her the idea that she is. But I'm going to make sure the idea is far out of her head come the culmination of Summer Showdown 2.

The scene fades with Lita lying alone in her hotel room, her pillow moved from in front of her face to behind her head.
