Synopsis: Jasmine recently got her first win a few weeks ago, defeating former childhood friend Jenny Williams. With the win-less monkey now officially off her back. Jazz sets her sights on keeping the winning ways going against Amy Marshall at Sovereign. Outside the ring however, Jazz took a stand against Rodney, but this may have been a very bad decision in the long run, as Rodney tried to have her removed from the Circle. It seems that Jazz just can't have good luck on both fronts in her life.

Whew. Glad that Monkey's off my back now. I'm actually excited right now. Well, as excited as a person with a record of 1-4 can be I guess. And for the most part, I'm happy. Although Flash is going to come back around eventually, I'm still wondering if ANYTHING Rodney says can be trusted. The fact of the matter is, Flash was suspicious of him, which makes me suspicious. He has to be hiding something, But I don't know what it is yet.
So now, I head to Sovereign in Cali. I love Cali, but I'll always be a New York boricua. Born and bred. And I must admit, I kinda felt bad kicking Jenny in the face a couple of weeks ago, but I did what I had to do. Hopefully she forgives me.
But still we move on to one Amy Marshall. NCW's resident punching bag. Honestly, I feel bad for you Amy. And being 1-4 myself. That's kinda saying something. You try so hard, and yet, you come up short more often then not. And I hear them talking about you, and how no matter how hard you try, and who you defeat, it won't matter because you're the resident bicycle too. If there's one reputation that's hard to shake, it's being a whore. Even if you aren't you, it sticks like glue.
Which I'm now wonder if it's true. You seem very friendly with Lex Sense, which hey, I guess is a step in the right direction for you. Now, just keep your legs closed for guys other than him, and you'll be on your way.
And I also noticed you don't like Todd. Well, you can get in line. Sometimes, I don't like Todd. Hell, he's easy to hate. Es Tonto. He drives me crazy all the time, so image me, or Crystal when we have to train or live with him. Hating Todd is the new thing now a days. Just don't make fun of him too much, or he gets upset. Haha. But Amy, I want to warn you that I am not like Todd in the slightest. No, I don't yell and scream, I don't run around like a person es loco. No, I get down to business in that ring.
And you are about to find that painful lesson out, first hand.
|Circle HQ, Harlem, NY|
I can respect what you're about Amy, you have made the attempt to change the perception of how people see you. You attacked and injured, Rose Acantha. That, for better or worse, made an impact.
In fact, it inspired me. Yeah, it did. Maybe injuring you is the way I get noticed. Because if you think I'm afraid because you lashed out to get some attention, think again. I've seen it in the streets, much worse than anything you've ever done. I'm not scared of someone seeking attention. Especially not someone like you. I guess sex with Amy Marshall is becoming boring to everyone else. So you've chosen this path. Fine with me. If you're looking for a fight, I'll be glad to hand you your ass and move on, and you can look for some other means to get your aggressions out. I hear Yoga is nice.
Sunday Amy, I'm going to beat you, like your parents should have done a long time ago. If you think you're to waltz in to Inglewood and break my arm or break my leg, you can talk to them about it. I don't think you'll like what they have to say Chica. I've settled into the groove and I'm ready for everything now. One win may not mean a lot to you, but to me, this is a new beginning. I've taken everything I've learned from losing and channeled it in the right spots. I don't need Todd to fight my battles, and while you can worry and complain about him...
When I beat you, all you'll be able to say is "holy ****, what happened out there?"
You're not fighting Todd. You're fighting me. And I'm going to whoop that ass.

Pete has been contacted. I think. Don't know too much about Rod movements.

Rodney:
Look ya'll, in light of recent developments, Jazz is not going to be included in our meetings. It's just temporary. We hope.
Andre:
You hope? There's something you ain't tell us.
Rodney:
'Dre, you know you're my boy, but Jazz is bad news. I have reason to believe that she may have been behind the set-up.
Andre:
What?
Rodney:
Yeah, trust me, I didn't want to believe it either.
Andre:
So Jazz is gone?

Consider her...on probation.

The meeting has adjourned. Andre steps out and Ace motions for him to come closer.
Ace:

Andre:

Ace:

Andre:

Ace hands Andre an envelope.
Ace:

Ace:

Andre:
Okay?
Ace:
