Meet Vanessa

After watching Sophie take out an entire bachelorette party I didn't think the night could get any better. But the next challenge was right around the corner.

As we headed down the street from the club we got maybe 20 feet before we were brushed aside by what looked like a NFL linebacker in a suit.

"Look out. Vanessa English is coming," he said, as though that meant anything to me.

Suddenly there was an entire group of giant guys in suits, all looking around and surrounding a woman walking down the street like she owned it. She was half a block away but she was hard to ignore.

I turned to Sophie. "Who is Vanessa English?"

She rolled her eyes at my question.

"She's only the most annoying, camera hungry billionaire. How do you not know her?"

Look at her to see if maybe I'd recognize her. And yes, she did seem familiar. She was in all white, a tight cream colored skirt that went to down her knees and hugged her curves, a white blouse, and a matching cream colored coat. I guess she was the type who liked to accessorise because she also had on matching white gloves, dark sunglasses, and a silly looking hat with a wide brim. Shoulder length silky black hair came out of the back of her hat.

"Yeah, I guess so," I said.

"Honestly, you're better off. She's rich and famous for being rich and from what I know she's a frigid bitch who makes everyone miserable."

I laughed. "You certainly know a lot. Are you sure you're not a fan?"

Then I saw that gleam of mischief in Sophie's eye that was becoming all too familiar. "You wanna see how much of a fan I really am?"

She looked at me grinning as she walked out into the street her hand ready to stop time. But as she was grinning at me she wasn't see what was in front of her. I tried to say something but it was too late. She bumped right into one of the suited tree trunks protecting Vanessa English and she dropped the watch. It slid on the ground and right into the path of the rich bitch her self.

"Stop!"

Vanessa had shouted a command and her walking army froze. She looked down and saw the pretty watch with the pearl handle right in front of her left heel. Sure enough everyone stopped. She carefully bent down to pick up the watch. Even though it hadn't been pressed, Vanessa certainly looked like she moved in slow motion. As she bent down slowly to pick it up I thought I could see something in that blouse of hers. A waist cincher? Not sure. Something is up there though.

Hell, that was all beside the point. The real issue was this woman has the watch! Sophie popped back up and rushed over. I started hurrying behind her.

As Vanessa was examining the watch Sophie rushed right up to her.

"Oh that's mine, I dropped it," Sophie said with a smile.

Vanessa looked her over for a second and then shouted, "Wall up, boys!" Suddenly, all the suited bodyguards formed a wall around Vanessa and Sophie. I was out the outside of course. I tried to push my way past but all that did was get me shoved down.

As I sat on the ground I could see between the guards what was going on inside. Vanessa and Sophie stood facing each other. But there was another person in there too. Another guard, but this was a woman.

"Karolina, you know what to do," Vanessa sneered and the guard who was named Karolina, a tall lean woman with her blonde hair pulled back grabbed Sophie's arms. Karolina was clearly in shape and still had her feminine curves, though she had to be close to six feet tall.

"What are you doing? Let me go," Sophie said.

"Don't worry dear, she will. But I like this watch. I've never seen one quite like it. Finders keepers, you know," Vanessa said.

Sophie struggled to get free but Karolina's grip was too tight. "You bitch, you can buy a million watches. Why are you taking mine?"

Vanessa laughed. "Because it's fun!"

Sophie was so angry her entire was burning bright red. She spit right in Vanessa's perfectly made up face.

"Oh that's it," Vanessa said. She walked up to the helpless Sophie and backhanded her across the face with her gloved hand.

"Get rid of her!" Vanessa commanded and the sea of suits parted. Karolina walked Sophie and shoved her into me. We both tumbled to the ground.

"Let zis be a leesson to you!" Karolina said in a thick Russian accent. She then turned her attention back to Vanessa and left us on the ground. We both watched as Vanessa walked away with the watch in hand, having no idea what it could really do.

After a few minutes of stunned silence we both got back up.

"Are you okay?," I asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just really pissed right now," Sophie said.

"Me too. We gotta get that watch back," I said.

"Yeah we do. I can't wait to get some payback on that bitch!" Sophie said.

"This may seem like a weird thing to bring up, but did you see that she was wearing..."

"A waist cincher? Yeah. Or a girdle. Something to hide her fat in. I saw it. What a phoney. Soon enough everyone is going to see it though." Sophie said with determination as a small bruise appeared on her cheek.

"That's fine. I'm all in on exposing that bitch but first. How do we get the watch back?"
