-1926 Birmingham, England
Khloé was still recovering but that didn't stop her from taking part in the final steps in the vendetta. Everyone was still in shock that Khloé said 'kill him', it was understandable seeing as the man had killed Khloé's parents, again. This was the one time Paige had control, the first but not the last. "Lads, put all your money on the gold boy, you hear me?!" Paige shouts as the blinders enter the ring. "You're sure about this?" Arthur asked. "Positive" Tommy said. "It was agreed, she'll be fine Arthur" Apollo said. "Need I remind you she's pregnant?" Arthur asked. "She'll be fine, the baby will be fine." Tommy said.
Apollo, Tommy, Arthur, Finn, Paige and Khloé walk down to the changing rooms to meet Bonnie and Aberama. They walk in to see Bonnie's fists being tapped and bandaged. "Bonnie boy, here we go boy. Bring out the fucking tiger" Arthur said. "Tiger's already out" Bonnie smirks, looking at Khloé. "Fair enough" Arthur said. "Bonnie, Mr Shelby will give you a twenty percent cut if you put Goliath down in round four." Aberama said. "Been caged up too long" Arthur sighs. "If the women are gonna have fun, so am I!" Apollo smirks.
"Here, Paige before you go" Arthur said, taking his coat off and resting it around her shoulders, "Remember, if any man tries to chat you up. Stick your fist in his fucking jaw." Paige smiles and kisses his cheek, "As if the pregnancy isn't enough to scare them off, a Shelby coat will." "And Khloé, be careful with those stitches" Tommy warns. "Tell him to protect that one good eye he has left" Khloé said, pointing at Apollo. The girls walk off to go and find Polly, Milly and Lizzie as they just walked into the ring. As everyone takes their seats, Tommy wanders off to meet Alfie. "Where's he away to?" Milly asked. "God knows, it's Tommy" Khloé sighs and the fight begins.
Tommy finally comes back and takes his seat beside Arthur. Everyone was yelling and shouting for Bonnie. Alcohol was flowing and Paige was the only one sitting there sober. "Where's Solomans?" Arthur shouts. "Apparently he doesn't watch" Tommy said. "Look at that corner, them men don't know fighters" Arthur shouts, "I don't like it!" "I feel it, we're alright" Tommy said, "Alfie's men were strip searched, we're alright!" Another round begins and the shouting picks up again but the women escape to the bathrooms.
"If I get spat on one more fucking time" Paige sighs, checking her makeup in the mirrors. "What did Tommy say when you told him, Lizzie?" Polly asked. "He said I'd get a weekly allowance" Lizzie said. "That's fucking nice of him" Milly mutters, earning a nudge from Paige's arm. "He can be romantic" Polly said sarcastically. "He said something like, 'we've had enough death, let's have some life" Lizzie said. "Jesus, was he referring to me?" Khloé asked. "Pol? This thing is fixed isn't it?" Ada asked. "I'd like to think so" Khloé said. "Well gyspy boy's getting battered out there" Ada said, "You said you had some news?"
