"Jade, how you feeling?" April asked then went inside my room. I rolled over to face her then she sat at the end of the bed
"I'm fine" not. I feel very sick, not literal but for what I did. I ejected a life off me
It's been 3 days since I took the pill, I still remember the blood that poured out the day after it. That was my baby, I killed my baby! I haven't gotten a decent sleep since then and haven't attended any training
Phil and Brock were worried when I didn't pick their calls, which was 2 days ago. They didn't know what happened. They called me, asking about this issue on ESPN that Dana released
Dana White: "We may have a change of plans for the co-main event"
On Wednesday, UFC president, Dana White told ESPN news that undefeated UFC Woman's Bantamweight Champion, Alpha Jade, is having problems about her ankle. She had injured her foot in training on Monday morning. Her team is still on dealing if she can compete on Saturday's pay-per-view
"Her team called, she called, it's a bad injured foot. She should decide if she wants to fight by Friday. If not, Holly would face Nunes for the interim championship. But if she's a go, we would have that 3 rounds fight" Dana White stated "If she still won't be able to compete by the next payperview, we would strip her off the title. The lady who would win the interim title would face another woman to get the title"
Jade haven't been spotted on any of her teams gym and embedded cameras have stop following her. If she would be able to compete, she would fly to Vegas by Thursday for the conference
I remember what the article said and reach for my phone, I open it and see that it was already Thursday. April gave me a hug then I hug her back
Ronda explained to them what happened, including to Dana. He understood then covered the real reason up. Ronda, Jessa, Shayna and Marina slept here all throughout and didn't left. I called Saraya and ask her about those texts, she said it wasn't her. I think I believe her, but with all the lies in this world, it's 50:50
"Who is on my house?" I asked her when we finally let go
"Your team, Nate paid a visit earlier but left. Russel is downstairs as well" she answered and I nodded. By team, it's Ronda, Jess, Shayna, Marina, Brock, Phil and Bellford. That's my team right there "Want something?" she asked then rub my back
"Prepare a hot water for me please, I'll go talk to them" I said then she nodded. I pull the blankets off of me and stared at my reflection on the mirror, I look hideous. Not even kidding, I want to find something good but I look so pale. I look so thin, my bones are almost visible
"I look so bad, how much do I weigh?" I asked myself, April look at me from the bath and she grabbed the scales under the sink and put it in front of me. I step in then was horrified, I weighed 130 pounds. I still need 5 pounds. The weigh-ins would be tomorrow! "I'll talk with the team now" I said then step out the scales. I raise my shirt up and thankful that I still have abs but not that visible. You could see my bones!
I walked downstairs and saw all of them discussing about the plan "She can't do it guys, she hasn't got out of her room, she hasn't ate anything at all!" Phil said then Ronda shook her head
"I agree on you but do you think she'll agree? I'm sure she's been eating something, April gives her food right? She might not eat that much but I'm sure she have eaten something. Let her decide"
"Thank you Rowdy" I spoke, they all look at me then Phil immediately stood up from the circular couches. He ran to me and gave me a hug, I hug him back with the widest smile on my face "How's TUF?" I asked then he let go
"We're good! How about you?" he asked then held both of my shoulders "I haven't seen you for so long!"
"I'm fine, we're going to continue the fight" I said with a straight face. He look at me with a straight face then shook his head "Russel, call Dana and tell him we're on our way to Vegas. We'll take the most recent flight, we should be there by lunch time" I ordered Russel and step aside
"Jade, you haven't-"
"Phil, you want to join me on my corner or not? It's that simple" I said then look at them, Russel is now on his phone "If you want to come with me, no one is stopping you; If you don't want to come with me, no one is stopping you as well" I said then they nodded
"Leave if you want, I'm continuing this fight" I added then they nodded again
"One team" Ronda said, I smiled at her then I look at Phil, we all did
"One team?" I asked to Phil and he nodded
"One team" he answered then I smiled at him. We high five each other then we pulled each other for a hug then I patted his back "Let's get you back, how much do you weigh?" he asked then we parted ways
"130, I'll eat on the way-" I answered then he nodded, I then turn back to the rest of my team "-pack your bag guys. We'll meet back here in 35 minutes" I said then clapped my hands
They walk out and Russel came to me and gave me a hug, I hug him back then he told me "Dana said that Nunes is also there just in case. If you can't make it on time, you'd be replaced." He said then tucked his phone back in his pocket
"Okay, let's go"
-1 HOUR 30 MINUTES-
"My bag! Guys, I'm heading straight to the conference. I'm going to be late!" I yelled as the guards push the media people away
"Okay, here. We would catch up later, Phil and Russel go! We would grab the hotel and catch up" Ronda explained and handed me my duffel bag, I took it then swing it over my shoulder. Phil nodded and us 3 went running out the airport
We held the cab and after a minute, a cab pulled over. Phil sat down in front while Russel and I sat down on the back. I grab 10 dollars then handed the driver it "Drive to the pre-fight conference or something like that on UFC. Go, go, go!" I said then the driver immediately took off "Drive like you're signed with Fast and Furious! Hurry up!" I said then slammed my hand on the back of his seat
I opened my duffel bag and took the hair tie, I braid my hair as I instructed Russel to prepare my heels. We have this dress code in face off and press conferences, guys aren't allowed to wear jeans; as well as the girls. Girls should wear heels and their hair should be tied. Last time I didn't knew that, I have to give my fine of $50,000. I know, it sucks
"Traffic!" Phil panic as I told Russel the stuff I needed. I cursed uncountable times then Russel zip my bag up. My heels, flannel and title is on the very top so I could just snatch it when we got there "15 minutes, how far is the place from here?" Phil asked the driver, I put my hair in a ponytail and breathed a big sigh of relief
"It's 10 far, but with the traffic, you'll be there within 20 minutes"
"No, we can't be late" Russel said then inserted himself from the middle. I just lay down, not minding them at all. I have thick hair ya know? It's hard to tie them up together "We need to run" he said then Phil nodded "Jade, you good?" he asked then I nodded
I swing my bags to my shoulder then they did the same on theirs. We thanked the driver then went out the cab. I have my Reebok's on so I'll pretty much survive
Russel made me wear his zip up hoodie since it was hot "Okay, let's go" Phil said then we run at the road. A few fans called us but I decided that this is the time to be a bitch and not mind them at the moment
We saw the location and I felt a pang of relief, they were showing a few clips about Nate and Conor. The clip ended and the fighters did their face off. We reach backstage but didn't let Phil and Russel in "Go ahead, we'll be catching up" Phil said as the guard handed them their passes. Since when did we have this?!
I nodded then unzip the hoodie and toss it to them. I stop at a post then took my shoes off, I change into my heels then grab my flannel. I wore it then made sure it's not inside-out and took off running again
I reach the backstage and saw a few crews, I put my bag down on a crate then pull my belt out. They all look at me, including Nunes who is there with her coach "Hey, you!" I yelled then grab one of the crews sleeve and pull him to me "When you see Phil appear, give him my bag" I said then he nodded
"Is Jade here? Anyone, is Alpha Jade here? Mike what's happening?" Dana asked through the mic, Mike is one of the producer and he do all the stage stuff. I think Nate and Conor are done with their face off since they're sitting now on their seat
Mike looked at the side and saw me. Conor and Nate keep taunting each other that they didn't see him nod to Dana "Alright everyone, for the UFC 196 Pre main-event. Holly Holm would face the undefeated, Woman's Bantamweight champion, 'The killer' Alpha Jade" Dana said then step off from his platform. He went in between me and Holly as I raise my fist up to her
"Nothing could stop me, no one can stop me" I said to her then push her by the forehead. Dana pushed her back as I showed no emotion, I face the fans and raise my title up while Holly keeps escaping on Dana's grasp
"I would kill you!" she yelled at me, I give her a side glance and blow her a kiss
"You can go and try the impossible! I can beat you in this heels babe, you don't want to say that again" I yelled back to her and smirk at her state "I could beat you in this heels with my eyes closed, and still win. I'm the queen in that octagon baby" I yelled again put my title on my shoulder
Mike told me to sit down and I went around the table, well if there's something I don't like about becoming a champ, it's the fact that me and Conor have to be in the same table. I paid him no attention and laughed mentally as Holly tried reaching for me "Come on baby, come on" I taunted her then Dana blocked me from her view
After a few minutes, she calmed down and sat down beside Nate. I prop my elbows on the table then put my title on the table. After a few minutes, we start
The first questions were all about Conor and Nate, everything went back and forth. Until Holly was asked "Holly, what are your predictions in towards your fight with Jade?"
"I would humiliate her so much that she can't show her face afterwards. She didn't told anyone why she was on armadillo mode those past few days-"
"I was on armadillo mode because if I turn into beast mode, what's left for you?" I cut her off then she scoff "Let's face it Holly, you know you can't take me. I'll not be merciful on you, I would finish that 5 rounds. On the last second of the last round, that's where I'll break your neck" I said then put the mic down
"She said it herself, she can't end it on the first round-"
"But you said it yourself as well, I may not end it on the first round but you know I'll be the one ending it" I said then no more remarks "I win" I mumble, not on the mic but enough for everyone to hear
"Okay-next question" Dana breathed then look at the crowd "Yeah you, go ahead"
"Dana, isn't it a bit awkward to put Conor and Jade together?" wow, thanks for pointing that one out. Dana look at us, who avoid looking at each other and glare at the one who asked
"This is business, this is fighting, personal problems are going to be lashed out backstage or in that octagon." Dana stated simply
"For Jade, how's the foot? You good?" a guy asked. I grab my mic then lean back to my chair
"Feels like I didn't got an injury, I'm good. It was something but I mean, I need to teach that 'Preacher's daughter' some lesson since apparently, she didn't got the hint to back off from my property-"
"You referring to Nate?" she butt off. I glared at her then give her a finger "Just asking" she teased with a satisfied smirk. The fans cheered and I saw Conor's fingers playing around
"He's not my property, I know I'm taken. I have my own property and I'm smart enough to not to go on anyone else" I said, glancing at Conor a bit but return my gaze to her "I'm referring to MY championship. It's my property, I'm its property. We have each other and its smart enough to know that we're together" I said then slammed my mic down
"Are you sure it's the championship? Because I think it's-"
"I don't even care if I broke some rules right now, you continue what you say and I would throw this monster energy drink at you" I threatened but she didn't listen
"Is that the lame ass speech you said on Conor to prevent him from leaving you?"
"Holly, please shut up. You don't know anything, no one knows anything. You only knew we broke up but that's it, nothing else. You don't know the story, so I'll with all due respect, shut up" Conor suddenly spoke
I was taking aback, everyone was. Especially Holly, I hold in my laughter as she stared at him with the mic still on her hands. I clapped teasingly then Conor's face went straight again
"Well, that ends our conference. Tomorrow would be the weigh-ins and by Saturday, UFC 196 would now be on. Thank you everyone for coming today" Dana immediately said then me and Holly were called back up again to face off
"I'm seeing trash right in front of me" Holly said then we put our fist up
"Honey, I'm not a mirror" I said then smirk. I then step forward, she flinched and I smirk. I raise my title up give Holly a finger. I would enjoy Saturday's festivities, baby this is for you
***
I really feel not updating, Conor decided to 'retire' but no one retires from twitter right? Yeah, he should not retire by those way. Some say he would be in WWE but if that happens, I would totally not be on his side and possibly, my respect for him would go downhill. He was one of UFC's toughest competitor and decide to make a transition at WWE? For what? The money? If that would happen, all my respect would be gone
Well anyways, that's it. Bye guys! -Reaps
