Charlotte had heard of the second chance Battle Royal and went to speak with her longtime friend Alexandra Callaway. She wasn't hard to find. Alexandra was sitting on Griffins motorcycle, parked just right outside the door. Having her backstage at Madness made things easier to do. Charlotte knew something was up with Alexandra, and she wanted to know what it was. A second chance to earn a way back in and Ally wasn't taking it. Something had to be up with her. Charlotte moved close to her and began to speak softly.

"Alexandra?" Charlottes voice sounded out in the silence.

"Hello Charlotte. Long time no see." The other woman smiled.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy."

"I've heard. You and the Irishman." The other woman looked up at Charlotte.

"Yes. Michaels amazing. What about you and The Mechanic? I thought he wanted no part of it. At least that's how it sounded in Gio's office that day."

Charlotte saw Alexandra smile softly before she spoke again.

"He didn't mean it. He loves me Charlotte and I love him. Things are wonderful between us."

"So did you hear about the battle royal?"

"Yes I did."

"Are you going to compete?" Charlotte asked.

"No." Alexandra answered softly.

"Why not? I thought you wanted to win."

"No." Alexandra answered quickly.

"Why not?" Charlotte looked concerned.

"I'm not medically cleared to compete right now."

Charlotte looked at her confused and Alexandra continued to speak.

"As of tonight I am officially in Semi-Retirement."

"Why? What's wrong? Seriously, your scaring me here Ally.. what's wrong?"

"It's nothing bad. I'm..." She whispers in her ear. "I'm pregnant."

"Is it Griffins?"

Alexandra nods. "Yes."

"Then, it's settled. I'm competing in your place."

"Thank you and Good luck. Be careful out there Charlotte."

"I will.."

The scene fades out on the two ladies speaking.
