[Between the Ropes is back on set with Jessica who is sitting in her white single seater chair with a table between her and the loveseat which her guest sit on. The still video is begging to be clicked on as it comes into the player. Upon hitting the play feature, the video now starts to Jessica coming to life in a skirt and tanktop with a casual blazer over it.]
Jessica King: Another exclusive chat session with yours truly and a truly special guest today. I took a break from the brute forces of Revival and got to interview a special woman. She doesnt give many interviews but we were lucky to get a couple minutes of her time.
Crowd: SYDNEY! SYDNEY!
Jessica King: Please welcome, the lover of everything Zelda, Ashley Laroux!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
[Ashley comes out looking very cute as she always did. Looking much healthier and in a good place in her life now. She takes a seat on the couch and bounces on it gently to test it. The crowd has mixed reaction to her as she looks out upon them]
Ashley Laroux: No, wrong Laroux. Sorry! Hello Jessica.
Jessica King: It seems they expected someone else tonight. Laroux seems to be a popular name around here. Also, mixed reaction I see to you being here. I think the past is still haunting you out here. Now, you used to go by Alyx and then everything crashed with Hessingstock and you now take on the name Ashley Laroux. What is the main thing people should know about the new Ashley?
[Jessica crosses her legs and takes a sip from her glass of water while she awaits her explaination. Ashley pulls her long hair, draping it over her left shoulder as she begins to talk timidly.]
Ashley Laroux: Know about me? Um, I don't know ... like ...
[Ashley tugs at her hair, thinking hard.]
Ashley Laroux: Ok, well I guess the main thing that people should know about me is that I'm not person I was when Revival wiped last time around. Long story short, there was a lot of crap that went down and I'm still working to rebuild the trust of the ones I hurt. Even fans!
[She stops talking for a moment, but before Jessica can continue pipes back up]
Ashley Laroux: Oh, and I love Arrested Development ... does that count?
Jessica King: It can..sure. I am a fan myself! But speaking of Revival and your past Ashley, what is it you are looking forward to at the first show Resurrection now that you get a second chance?
[Ashley takes a deep breath and smiles, her head turning from side to side.]
Ashley Laroux: I'm looking forward to feeling like I'm home again. You don't understand just how terrible a feeling it is seeing the place you've grown to love just ... disappear right out from under you in the blink of an eye. Revival should have closed but I understand why it had to. What Sam did ...
[Ashley closes her eyes, her jaw clenched]
Ashley Laroux: What he did was reprehensible, and the fact that I was tied up in the whole thing still makes me sick to my stomach. So what I'm looking forward to is that feeling Revival had before it was poisoned, that feeling of family ... even a family that may contain an Aaron Blaize.
[She smirks, pulling her left leg up and tucking it under herself in the chair.]
Jessica King: Oh goodness. The snake himself! I wouldn't call him family.
[Jessica looks down to her cards again and she smiles wider.]
Jessica King: Family. That is such a wonderful insight. You know Rumors seem to always find me and this one might cut a little close to home. Sydney LaRoux seems to be a huge influence on your life, be it a homage with the last name or you are just a huge fan. But, It has been said you and Sydney LaRoux have a bad history..Do you have a message for her? Maybe help you build a bridge over that rift.
Ashley Laroux: Sydney Laroux is one of the best wrestlers on the planet! Bad history Jessica?? Did you pay attention at all to the way things were left, well, on camera at least?
[Ash looks off to her left and sighs]
Ashley Laroux: Syd and I had a pretty rocky relationship at best for a while there and when the cameras turned off things didn't just bounce back to what they used to be. I honestly don't think that she'll ever be able to forget my involvement with Sam, and it's something that I just have to live with. But our history is complicated, but at the end of the day I trust her more than anyone in the world, and I've worked hard to rebuild the same with her. So our relationship is complicated, but we're like family so what do you expect?
[Jessica smiles and she goes to start saying something and Sydney LaRoux comes out from the side and the camera goes to her. She comes to the couch and Ashley stands. Sydney waves to the crowd a moment before Ashley and Sydney embrace gently and Sydney hugs Jessica a little and turns to look at the crowd again.]
Crowd: Sydney! Sydney! Sydney!
Jessica King: And a surprise here..Sydney LaRoux has stopped by!
[Sydney takes a seat beside Ashley and she smiles as the two look at each other. Jessica seems beyond surprised at this. Ashley is as well!]
Ashley Laroux: What are you doing here?!
Sydney LaRoux: Surprising you! I had to come and grab a few things here and I was told you were here. Thought I would pop by and see you.
[Ashley turns back to Jessica and she smiles like she cant believe she came here. Jessica smiles now.]
Jessica King: It is like a two for one! I was just letting Ashley talk about old Revival and she mentioned Sam and touched on what happened.
Sydney LaRoux: Ah. Yeah. Those were rough times playing out on live television. But things are getting better now and Ashley is better and we all just want to move forward from all of it.
Jessica King: That is really fantastic. This next question seems to hit a little closer to home for the both of you..but outside of Revival rumors are running wild that you are you currently dating Chris Bond, Ashley. Is that true?
[It might not be possible for her to look more uncomfortable at this question. Her face immediately blushes and she averts her eyes. It was really hard to answer now with Sydney there sitting. Sydney turns to look at Ashley and she smiles with a reassuring arm pat.]
Ashley Laroux: Dating? Chris? Come on, he's like family. I've been helping him out with babysitting and stuff 'when he's got the little guy. Syd and Myke seem to like having me around when Chris is touring with the company he's working for now. So, yeah ... we've been spending a lot of time together ... but it's all innocent.
[She tucks her hair behind her ear, the color rising in her cheeks once more. Sydney looks to Jessica and she smirks. There's a pause and Jessica sits there smiling at Ashley, who looks like she's ready to move on.]
Sydney LaRoux: Even if they were Jessica, Chris and I were a page in another book at another time. I have a new page in a different book and that happens to be with the Superman and the little ones. Ashley is just as much a part of our lives as Chris and if they did seem to be together than I know me and Myke would be happy for them.
[Sydney smiles at Ashley and she smiles back before they look at Jessica.]
Jessica King: That is truly touching. Family is so hard to find when you are touring and training. you both have such charmed lives. I have one last question for you Ashley. Fans want to know, Dungeons and Dragons or MPRPGs?
Ashley Laroux: It's about time you ask the good questions! Well, my first love would have to be old school table top D and D, but you know I love me some WoW as well. You should see my little Panda now! Anyway, it's a hard question but there's actually a game that brings 'em both together like peanut butter and fluff. Dungeons and Dragons Online is a MMORPG based around the game blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah............"
[Jessica nods and cuts off Ashley as she goes into the game play and she gets up to say goodbye.]
Jessica King: Both Laroux's tonight on Between the Ropes! See what will happen when Resurrection comes to you, in your face, right here online! Wednesday July 3rd. The only fireworks you need to see happens live at 8! Jessica King! Out!
[The video stops playing on the still of Jessica and you are directed to other video and interviews like John Ojeda, Brodasali and Mac Bane. ]
