of blood on the mat. The cleaners who come in between rounds missed it when they came in to clean up the blood. 
    She got halfway across the cage holding the sign up over her head. She swung her hips side-to-side like Coco showed her in practice. She hoped her grandparents weren’t watching this. She was distracted by some of the crude things the males called out to her that she didn’t see the slick spot until it was too late.
    Her right heel hit the slick spot and caused her to slip. Her leg kept going until she ended up doing a split. It happened so quickly that she had no time to try to catch herself. She kept hold of the sign she was holding the whole time. The crowd went wild. They thought she had intended to do that. She tried to play the whole thing off by waving at the crowd. She used one hand to continue to hold the sign up while she quickly got to her feet. Well, she certainly made an impression.

    “She’s certainly flexible,” Zen commented, trying to hold back his laughter. He was watching the match closely. 
    “That’s not funny. She could have seriously hurt herself in those heels.” Taurus was pissed. The female was a born klutz and the wardrobe people outfitted her in the tallest heels known to man!”
    “Yeah, but she recovered good. Plus, those heels were fucking hot,” Zen told him.
    Taurus growled, “Stop talking about her that way.”
    “I’d shut it if I were you, Zen. He’s very sensitive when it comes to the pretty new ring girl,” Hammer said, watching his friend closely.
    “Both of you are going to be eating my fists soon if you don’t shut the fuck up!”

Chapter Nine
     
     
    Maya recovered from her minor slip with no problems, she suffered from slight humiliation.  The crowd seemed to think it was planned. When she walked out of the cage the coordinator for the events asked if she could do a split every time she did her run.  She told him that it would have to be practiced well in advance before she agreed to that. She wasn’t sure how she was going to do something on purpose that had happened accidentally.
    “Come on, Maya, let’s get showered and changed for the after-party.” Coco pulled her along with her to their suite.  “That was quite an impression you left. The crowd went nuts.”
    “I forgot to mention that I am a klutz. Always have been. That’s why I was scared of walking in the heels to begin with.”
    “Well, we might be able to get slightly shorter heels, but they are going to want you to do the split. It looked sexy.”
    “I’m not sure I can make it happen again. It sort of just happened.”
    When they got to their suite, Maya immediately kicked off her treacherous heels. She didn’t care what wardrobe said, she was not going to wear those death contraptions again.
    “Do we have to go to the after-party? I just want to crawl into my bed and sleep for two days,” Maya complained, sitting on the couch to rub her feet.
    “As part of our job requirements, we are expected to make an appearance at every after-party. We have to dance at least one dance with one of the male fighters, pose for pictures, and flirt with the male VIPs.” Coco also removed her shoes and rubbed her own feet.
    Coco stood back up and headed to her room. “Take a shower and change.Wardrobe sent up an evening dress for you to wear. We have a makeup artist and hairstylist on their way here to get us ready.”
    Maya sighed, “How long will all that take?”
    “One hour at the most. They want us to get to the party quickly.”
    “So, there’s no time to take a small nap?”
    “Nope.”
    “At least I can leave early once I dance, get a picture taken, and flirt some with the VIPs. That should take maybe fifteen or twenty minutes,” Maya said standing up.
    Coco giggled. “Honey, you’re split stunt is going to make you the talk of the party. You’ll be lucky to get out of there in one hour.”
    “Great, I’m famous for an unplanned
