Outside New Orleans, Louisiana
It's been four of days since anyone has been to check on Jeszika Gautier here, in this cabin in the woods. Having had no contact with anybody again, Jeszika sits before her computer with her files and paperwork strewn all over the floor looking frazzled. Once again, there’s a knock at the door. Just like last time, Jeszika ignores this, thinking it either doesn’t exist or doesn’t really matter. Finally after a few minutes, Ashley Kenyon opens the door and walks inside. Jeszika quickly turns, ready to fight until she sees who it is standing there.
Jeszika Gautier: I don't want to talk to you right now, I know you're only just going to say shit like 'Brody's not worth it' So don't even bother. Just leave the way you came. I don't have either the time, patience or control to deal with you right now. So just go...
Ashley doesn’t even blink.
Ashley Kenyon: No...
She pauses, waiting for an answer she knows is probably not coming.
Ashley Kenyon: Jezzy... look... at... me...
Jeszika turns to Ashley, glaring at her.
Jeszika Gautier: What?
Ashley slides her sunglasses off to show the black eye and couple of stitches.
Ashley Kenyon: That's ALL you have to say to me?
Jeszika shrugs almost defiantly.
Jeszika Gautier: I did warn you if you tried to stop me, you'd get hurt. Not my fault you didn’t listen...
Ashley just shakes her head in angry disbelief.
Ashley Kenyon: We're really gonna stand here and stare at each other like this at a time like this? You sucker punched me hard enough to leave a mark, your girlfriend, your fucktoy and my boyfriend are all classified as missing and we're just gonna stand here like two guys having a dick measuring contest?
Jeszika turns on her looking shocked.
Jeszika Gautier: Wait, your boyfriend’s missing?
Ashley nods slowly.
Ashley Kenyon: Yes, the odds are he's just off getting fucked up somewhere but currently nobody we know actually knows where Billy is.
Jeszika nods slowly, feeling only half relieved at this explanation.
Jeszika Gautier: Here's hoping thats all it is and that bastard McBride hasn’t claimed yet another victim...
Ashley barely nods.
Ashley Kenyon: I wasn’t going to tell you not to bother, by the way. Whether I give a shit or not about… Brody… I wasn’t going to tell you to just leave Melissa to those fucks.
Jeszika fires right back.
Jeszika Gautier: I have to get her back from them... But Ash... I don't know how. I've tried every trick I know this week, all have come back with nothing. Goddammit, I would go and search every damn forest in this country if it means finding her!
Ashley barely nods again.
Ashley Kenyon: My sister thinks you’re mad at her.
She pauses, looking like she thinks it’s almost darkly funny.
Ashley Kenyon: She thinks you’re as mad at her as I am.
Jeszika sighs.
Jeszika Gautier: I'm not mad specifically at you guys... I made at everything! I want to tear the word apart. He took my girl and I will make him pay for that!
She pauses.
Jeszika Gautier: Wait, did you say you’re mad at B?
Ashley shrugs.
Ashley Kenyon: She thinks you blame her and Carrie for what happened with Melissa.
Jeszika nods, not quite sure where this is going.
Jeszika Gautier: And what do you think?
Actually pondering this question, Ashley allows her arms to slowly fall to her sides as she considers the possibilities.
Ashley Kenyon: I wouldn’t be surprised if you did at least a little. Carrie was in the room when they took her and really couldn’t tell you much so even if she did eat it bad herself, she still didn’t stop them from taking Melissa.
She pauses and then nods slowly.
Ashley Kenyon: Course, I also think it’s quite the level of pussydom to have sent three guys in to deal with a bartender and a businesswoman.
Jeszika can’t believe her ears.
Jeszika Gautier: So he didn’t even have the guts to do it himself? He sent his lackeys to do it?
Ashley shakes her head disgustedly.
Ashley Kenyon: Nope, Carrie said it happened while we were all in the ring at the end. They were watching on the monitor and three of them burst through the door. She was pretty sure they hit Melissa too, but since they bounced her head first off the wall, she wasn’t exactly clear about what happened from then on.
Jeszika closes her eyes, as emotion overcomes her, then she punches the wall.
Jeszika Gautier: I will make him pay for this... I will get her back, no matter what it takes.
She looks over at Ashley.
Jeszika Gautier: And for the record, yeah at first I did blame Carrie. I blamed us all for not being there protecting her, but mostly, I blamed myself. She made a vow to me to keep me safe, and I couldn’t even keep her safe...
Ashley nods before swallowing hard.
Ashley Kenyon: To answer your other question, yes, I AM mad at my sister. She should have told me and not just because she thought Joshua McBride was holding a gun to her head! She damn well should have told me a long ass time ago!
Jeszika nods, not sure what else to say or do in this situation.
Jeszika Gautier: I know, but she was afraid... that you'd hate her, blame her...
Ashley’s eyes flash with rage.
Ashley Kenyon: And I shouldn’t?
Jeszika stands her ground.
Jeszika Gautier: From what I've heard of this, it was your mother’s decision, not Bethany's. She wanted to help her, she really did, but your mother wouldn’t let her.
Ashley nods, obviously nowhere near convinced.
Ashley Kenyon: And you would have let her say no?
Caught off-guard, Jeszika takes a second to regain her bearings.
Jeszika Gautier: I wouldn’t have liked it, but yes, I would. I believe in free will, Ash, and your mother knew it was her time to go, she had accepted it. To go against her wishes would leave her resenting, B... for not listening to her...
Angry tears roll down Ashley’s face.
Ashley Kenyon: They still should have told me!
Jeszika nods slowly.
Jeszika Gautier: I know but, would it have changed anything? You'd still be angry at her would you not?
Ashley glares through her tears.
Ashley Kenyon: That’s not the point! It’s like with us and Brody, the point isn’t that I can’t stand him and think he’s a bastard, the point is that McBride has started grabbing other people who actually matter and Brody, assuming he’s escaped, knows where! The same thing with Mama, the point isn’t I wouldn’t have been angry regardless, it’s that she lied to me for years about it!
Jeszika narrows her eyes at Ashley.
Jeszika Gautier: You say that like Brody never mattered to me. I suggest you take that back right now, Ash... before you get two matching eyes...
Ashley nods back, both women glaring through each other.
Ashley Kenyon: I said he didn’t matter to me, however, he kinda does now.
Jeszika cocks her head.
Jeszika Gautier: He does?
Ashley nods as she wipes away her tears.
Ashley Kenyon: Like I said, operating under the assumption that he somehow escaped, that means he knows where their place is and how to get in and out!
Jeszika nods knowingly.
Jeszika Gautier: Problem is, I have no way to contact him, he called from a blocked number, probably a pay phone.
Ashley shrugs.
Ashley Kenyon: So where would he go if he wanted to lay low and be a selfish prick pussy ass bitch?
Jeszika glares back at her friend again.
Jeszika Gautier: As far from me and UWA as possible, and please, stop with the insults, Ash. I can't promise I won’t hit you if you do it again...
Disregarding the threat, Ashley just cocks her head expectantly.
Ashley Kenyon: Did he have any place that would qualify? Like Aerynn has the Tahoe retreat, you have this cabin, my sister thinks I have the Barn Door… what about Brody?
Jeszika shakes her head.
Jeszika Gautier: Not a place he owns anymore, Joshua bought it all out from under him. He owns nothing anymore.
Ashley shrugs as if this is a poor excuse.
Ashley Kenyon: Doesn’t mean he wouldn’t still go there? Like us with Prey, if we were homeless, we’d still go there and hope for friendly charity…
Jeszika shakes her head again.
Jeszika Gautier: I can't think of anywhere off the top of my head... But do you really think if he wanted to avoid me, he'd go somewhere I know about?
Ashley nods.
Ashley Kenyon: I think he’d go where he knew things and since he let you in…
Jeszika just shakes her head again.
Jeszika Gautier: He told me not to look for him, Ash. I'm not going to disobey him...
Unable to control her fury and resentment any longer, Ashley balls up a fist.
Ashley Kenyon: Goddammit, he's not your fucking Dom but he knows where SHE is!
Jeszika looks at her shocked.
Jeszika Gautier: He does... but I can't get hold of him, Ash. He probably doesn’t even know she was taken, its not like its common knowledge...
Ashley nods.
Ashley Kenyon: You’re right, he’ll probably find you…
Jeszika shakes her head.
Jeszika Gautier: I don't think he will, Ash... He said something that all but confirms that anything we had between us is over... I broke his heart, Ash, I'm the last person he'd want to see...
Ashley Kenyon: Jezzy, if he’s half the man you think he is and he ever cared about you, he will.
She shakes her head again.
Jeszika Gautier: He's not the one we need to find though... We need to find Melissa... I saw what Joshua did to Brody... The thought of that happening to Mel...
She clenches her hands to fists.
Jeszika Gautier: Whatever he does to her, I will do back to him ten fold...
Ashley nods slowly.
Ashley Kenyon: Like I said, if he ever cared about you, when he sees what’s going on now, he will…
Jeszika Gautier: We'll see...
