She tells her

Tikka was conscious, but afraid to even move. Every person they passed in the hall, wrestler and staff alike, gave Ninjette a wide berth. Ninjette opened a door and walked into a pitch black boiler room. Unable to see anything, Tikka quickly became disoriented as Ninjette wound her way through the room. Then, a blast of golden light almost blinded her.

She'd never seen this room before. The ceiling was low and draped in red silk hangings, and there was a soft red rug covering the floor. A low cot with a black blanket sat in one corner, and an incense burner next to it. Around the room were a few large pillows to sit on.

Ninjette carefully laid Tikka on one of the pillows, and then sat down cross legged in front of her.

"You do not need to be scared, Tikka. I'm not acting on Tanya's orders, and I mean you no harm."

It didn't comfort Tikka much.

"Why are you afraid?"

Tikka shook her head. "I... don't understand..."

"You are afraid to fight. I've seen it. You have wisdom that goes back thousands of years, the realization that the sexual spirit is as much a tool and a weapon as any other part of your body. You have training and realization that no other girl in the league even begins to match. And yet, you almost never use it, and even when you do, it's a fraction of what you're capable of."

"But how..? how do you know about my training?" Tikka asked.

"Because we trained together."

Ninjette pulled off her mask.

"YUKIO!"

Tikka screamed and threw her arms around Ninjette's neck, rambling almost incoherently. "I can't believe it I've missed you so much where did you go why did you leave what happened how are you I can't believe it...."

"Tikka..." Ninjette/Yukio gently pushed her back to arms length. "Control yourself. I missed you too. It took every ounce of training I had to not reveal myself to you. I came here, took Tanya's job offer, because you were here. But I also watched you lose to Dolly in your first match..."

"I couldn't use my kung fu on her..." Tikka protested. "She has one move, she's practically helpless..."

"And so you let her **** herself upon you."

"Well..." Tikka blushed and lowered her head.

Ninjette/Yukio reached out and gently lifted her chin.

"Do not worry, Tikka. You know as well as I do that you have the potential to match me. And I will help you find it, if you will let me."

"I...I..." Tikka stammered.

Everything she'd believed in said no... but her beloved friend from her days back in the dojo in China, reappearing so suddenly, had shaken her entire world.

"Of course..."

Tikka flung herself into Yukio's arms.

This time, Yukio did not resist. Holding onto Tikka, she rolled over onto her back, kissing her all the while.
