After his last match, Sokolov went home. Why you ask? He went back home to check up on his sister and his daughter. He hadn't seen her since he signed to the XWF but he knew life on the road was going to be tough and he wasn't going to be home as much as he wanted to but he was living his dream. His sister and daughter wanted him to and told him to go for it. So he did.

Sokolov woke up and sat up in bed. He yawned and rubbed his eyes of sleep. He had to leave today and didn't know when he would be back home. He got out of bed and walked to the bathroom to drain his bladder. Once done he took a shower, got dress and packed more clothes for his trip back to the XWF. He was making sure he had got everything he needed, it seemed as always like cloak work he would forget something, nothing really important but it still made him slap his forehead when he was unpacking then finding he had forgot his razor or comb. This time he was sure he had everything. He nodded at his well done packing. He walked into the living room of his house and saw his sister and seven year old daughter wrestling. He couldn't help but to smile. His daughter was his world. She always came first and if she so wanted him to quit wrestling and come home, well she would get her wish. She was the little red princess and Sokolov's world.

Viktoriya had pinned her aunt to the floor. She looked up to see her father and smiled wide.

"Papa, you have to count before she kicks out."

Sokolov stepped into action and jumped down to the floor like a ref from the XWF would when about to count.

"1"


"2"


.....and 3!!!"



Sokolov made a bell sound. His daughter stood with her hands raised. Sokolov held her arm up in victory.


"Here is your winner and still the Red Champion. The Red Princess, VIKTORIYA"


The trio laughed and smiled. Sokolov picked up his daughter into his arms and hugged her. He set her down and patted the top of her head. She giggled before speaking.


"So papa. Are you going to be in the lumberjack match? Like on the outside with the other wrestlers?"


"Oh yeah I'm going to be in it, but I also have a tag match that night, but yes I'll be outside the ring as the King and the two king killers go at it to see who will be the new King of The XWF."


"Oooooooooh, so so who's side are you on anyways papa?"



Sokolov didn't really think about that part. He knew what a lumberjack match was, he had be in a few, on the outside and in the ring fighting. He thought about it for a moment before answering his daughter.


"Hmm, well to tell you the truth I'm on no one's side, but I'll be there to try to keep the match fair. So if anyone tries to break the rules, well then papa will be there to stop them. So in the end I guess you could say I'm on the side of all three wrestlers that are in the ring."


Natash laughed as she got up from the floor and sat down on the couch.


"So in other words, you'll crack anyone's skull if they get out of line and try to fuck up the match."


"Yeah pretty much. I don't see any point in trying to be buddy buddy with the King or the two king killers but I'll help them out of I feel that they need it."


Sokolov looked at his watch. It was time to go, if he didn't he was going to miss his flight and he didn't need that to happen.


"Oh shit, I got to go. I'll miss my flight."


Viktoriya and Sokolov hugged and she gave him a kiss on each of his cheeks and so did Sokolov. It was their way of saying goodbye. He then hugged his sister and grabbed his bags and headed for the door.


"I'll see you two later, be safe and make sure to cheer for papa this Monday okay little Red."


Viktoriya smiled nodded before running off to go play with her aunt again. Sokolov smiled and shut the door behind him and went on his way to catch his flight.
