(The video turns on to the legendary El Batey dive bar, where the LOTR Narumi has been drinking fine sake and looks self reflexively at an empty bottle that shows herself and the defaced ruined bar wall. Emmanuelle happily walks onto view fashionably late and then gestures a drink order, while Narumi looks towards her coldly.)
Narumi: Considering I’m trying to shape my quiet winning roll into something tangible, every match to me is precious to get myself in better form post Mania. Thus I’m dumbfounded over how you managed to pull my time away from that to team with you.
(Emmanuelle sits down with a sly smirk.)
Emmanuelle: With that annoying joshi representation act you portray, it’s easy to convince management that anyone Japanese is your ally. I took advantage of the EWC’s ignorance in order to maneuver my way to get in the ring with you, since you’ve been ducking me.
(A waiter puts a Strawberry margarita tequila in front of Emmy, as the duo's beverages clash as much as their drinkers.)
Emmanuelle: It’s too bad challenging you would’ve blown my cover, but getting to show you up in this tag will be a good start. When the EWC sees my heavy blows smash up Young Justice better than your rushed strikes does, they’ll understand there’s better joshi. In fact they humiliatingly say Shinijoshi’s feuding with Young Justice, since your faction’s weak philosophy allowed them a win over misled Sonya and your fragile injured partner. In one match I will show my style is better than your entire group!
(The sound of toasting glass bottles can be heard, but not between these two as Narumi takes a sip by herself and shakes her head at the wall’s graffiti phantom.)
Narumi: Emmy, this place used to host the Rolling Stones, now it's a symbol of the vanishing side of Old San Juan. That’s the kind of threat we’re under as neither of our seasons are going the way we want, and yet you’ve risked us being defaced by Young Justice. Fortunately Young Justice won’t be coming to us at their best either, as they’ll be only two days removed from being battered by the vicious Eleos Affect. I will take advantage of all this to prove I’m able to win with anyone as EWC’s five tool player!
(Emmy contrasts Narumi’s sips bypurposely downing a whole glass of tequila.)
Emmanuelle: I ain’t scurred of lightweights. You forget who truly came up with big Sonya back home? I can manhandle those two justice twigs myself! If they couldn’t handle CosmoJojo, Demons, and Riders with all their longer experience, then clearly they’re a hopeless team. Do your little thing softening them up if you want, afterwards I can put them down hard for good!
(A competitive demon has been stirred in the alcoholic yokai as she quickly sucks through two glasses.)
Narumi: I know you’ll want me to do most of the work so you can finally steal a win, but every time you tag me in I have the opportunity to strike them down and snatch that win with my swift out of nowhere match ending maneuvers. Silent Discotecnicos and I have shown speedsters can blitz those two. Maybe you’re fine not being hungry with your losing record, but I’m out to shine.
(Emmanuelle scowls and signally taps at her glass. The camera then catches her partner Jakucho brandishing a sake bottle, lurking dangerously behind Narumi.)
Emmanuelle: Neither you nor Young Justice can be prepared for what lengths I can go to get what I want. Remember, I’m not held back by the qualms you have, I will maim bitches with ruthless tactics on Prime 120.
(The sound of dropped bottles stops Jakucho, as the video reveals Emiko and Sonya watching with the bartenders.)
Narumi: I’ve learned a lot about this business, I’m not the trainee you remember, I grew up to become a grand slam champion through wild wars in the EWC! Neither you nor Young Justice are ready for me to have answers for every trick in the book.
(Emmy snickers and stands up to leave with Jakucho.)
Emmanuelle: Maybe you'll be useful after all, but after we win? Your safety is no longer guaranteed. The only question on Prime is whether only two bodies get catched, or three, or if that traitor and greenhorn want it too, maybe five.
(As Emmy leaves, Narumi snarls.)
Narumi: Baka, Shi wins.
(Shinijoshi hits the four/death pose as the video ends.)
