La Bala

Carmen Alvarez searched for any G1 footage online while walking on her treadmill. She knew Kenny Omega and Tama Tonga had a match up in block B. She hoped they didn't rip each other to shreds, she was almost hesitant to learn what  happened.

She checks the videos online and she's hurt by the images. She understood Tama's hurt; he loved Bullet Club. He would bleed for the Club, he would sacrifice for the Club. Kenny doesn't seem to care, he seems to be for The Elite and that was heartbreaking. She liked Kenny, he was charismatic and fun to be around. But for the OGs, it seems like the Bullet Club was being destroyed from the inside-out.

Watching the clips, she witnesses exactly what she didn't want to see. Bullet Club was divided, Kenny and Tama were hurting each other. Even the guys who were ringside for the match seemed divided. She thanks her injured shoulder from keeping her away cause she would have broke down witnessing this in front of her. This wasn't Bullet Club, this wasn't what this Club was suppose to be. Devitt wouldn't have wanted this, AJ wouldn't have wanted this, Anderson wouldn't have wanted this. As the leader of the Bullet Club, she thought Kenny shouldn't want this. If he was even leader anymore, he seemed to be more interested in The Elite than Bullet Club. Carmen was offended by The Elite, it was a slap to the face of the OGs. No matter how many times Kenny jokingly told her she could join The Elite, she still thought it was 'bullshit', she has said many times she's Bullet Club for life. She hated to admit it but Tama was right, about everything. He wasnt one of them. If he didnt wear the Club's banner, he wouldn't bleed for the Club. Tama Tonga was right, she did defend him and protect him too many times. She was harsher on Yujiro Takahashi than she was on Kenny.

Carmen turns off the treadmill then steps off the equipment. She opens a bottle of water and takes a long drink. Taking a lighter, she lights up a blunt full of medical marijuana.

Carmen sat on an exercise ball wondering what could be the most sensible solution to this division.

Carmen gets up to get her phone and tries to find AJ Style's contact information.

In December, Carmen made her return to Japan. Her shoulder no longer hurt and she has fully recovered. She was having dinner with the Tongans, she passed a note during dinner for Tama Tonga to meet her alone at a bar around the corner. She said bye to Tanga Loa and Bad Luck Fale then got up to the bar she had named on the napkin she passed to Tama Tonga earlier.

"French 75, thank you." She told the waitress who greeted her after she had sat down at a table in the corner.

Tama Tonga walks into the bar, Carmen observes as his eyes scan the place for her. When he finally sees her, he makes his way over and sits down in front of her.

"Hey Sweetheart." He smiles towards her. "Is there a reason you wanted to talk alone?"

The waitress comes over with her drink, she asks for Tama Tonga's order but Carmen orders for him.

"You're drinking champagne, whatever you want to tell me must be big." Tama takes note of the drink in the woman's well manicured hand.

"I'm leaving. I'm leaving New Japan, for real this time." She tells him after she took a long sip of her drink.

"For real? Like you signed a contract?" He asks.

She nods.

"AJ got me a contract with WWE, main roster." She informs him.

The waitress comes back with Tama's drink.

"No, please Carmen, stay. I need you here."

"I can't stay this time. Last time I wanted to leave for Devitt, I'm leaving this time for me." She explains. "And the Club."
