Vincent Hubbard: "...strangers in the night...two lonely people, we were strangers in the night..."
Somewhere in the backstage area, Vincent smokes a cigarette and sings nonchalantly as he watches the Riot pre-show on one of the monitors that are often scattered throughout the back at every event.
Vincent Hubbard: "...up til the moment when we said our first hello...little did we know, love was..."
That's when the champ suddenly stops, realizing that he was no longer alone with his song. Vincent takes a drag from his cigarette then he slowly shifts around in his seat to see [x] standing a few feet away.

And who was that approaching? Just a very anxiety riddled Amazon who was stomping down the hallway looking like she had just gotten off a week long cocaine binge with Amy Winehouse.
As soon as she got Vincent in her sights she slammed both hands down on the table containing the monitor.
Genesis âYOU!â

The impact sends the monitor teetering on the edge of the table, forcing Vincent to lean forward suddenly in order to catch it. Vincent slides it back onto the table slowly, while keeping his eyes on the angry Amazon in front of him.
Vincent Hubbard: Look, I dunno what they told you but I do not know how to do the Soulja Boy dance, so...

There was a yell somewhere out behind her as if someone was looking for her. However, she was long out of their sights. She flared her nostrils out, but remembered Shannonâs words like a professor reminding her through telekinesis not to ride her bike in other peoples houses. She drew a large breath and dragged her claws nails across the table.
Genesis âWhat do you know about me!? Do you know what wrong with me!?â
She asked after throwing all that meditation out the window.

One of the most important things about Vincent was how quickly his mind worked, especially when he was caught by surprise like this. And you make absolutely no mistake, the possibilities he saw here were absolutely delicious.
Vincent Hubbard: What makes you think something's wrong? Wait, let me guess...someone else told you that, right?

She barely knew how to respond to that. Usually she just relied on some kind of inner instinct to tell her if something was right or wrong with her. So she actually had to think for a little bit.
Genesis âYou said Genesis was steamy and sweatyâŠGenesis is sweating more since she got hereâŠhow you know that!? What wrong with me!?â
Her face was a mix of frustration, anger, and desperation, with a little dash of fear thrown in for good taste. In the background there was another scream of her name coming closer.

Vincent Hubbard: I merely suggested a little late night rendezvous with a good friend of mine. Who knows, he might even have the cure for what apparently ails you...hell, you might even have a good time with him.
It was like being locked in a cage with a crazed lion. And Vincent genuinely loved the sensation that it gave him.
Vincent Hubbard: In truth, I don't think there's anything wrong with you...

Genesis stood there, at first trying to figure out what the hell 'rendezvous' meant and then back on Vincent's face, but before she could form a response, Neon came running down the hallway.
Neon "Hey! You can't just run away just because...oh..what's up Jezzy?"
He looked between his cousin and Vincent, pointing between them two.
Neon "What uhhhh, what's going on?"
Genesis "He says he know what wrong with Genesis."
Neon "I...I'm not gonna' say he doesn't but...elaborate please...?"
Neon says to Vincent.

Oh, this was getting really good now.
Vincent Hubbard: You want me to level with you? I don't think anything's wrong with her. ( he looks at Genesis again ) Sorry, I don't buy it. You're definitely a bit 'out there' but is there something wrong with you? Hardly.
He shrugs slightly and looks at Neon.
Vincent Hubbard: You have a different view on the topic?

Neon "I thought the raw meat she eats finally was catching up with her...but I guess you have a better understanding of what makes someone abnormal."
Genesis "So...Genesis fine? Then why she feel weird?"

That one word causes his brow to furl slowly as he leans forward in his seat.
Vincent Hubbard: Abnormal, huh...that what you think I am? I suppose you think you're Mister fucking Rogers or something, seeing as how you're an absolute poster child for what normal's meant to be, right?
He asks as he looks past Genesis and directly at Neon this time.

Neon looked between the both of them as they both seem to be asking him a question with their eyes.
Neon âUhh, hehe, wonât you be my neighbor? Uhhh, Hold on a second, I think Iâm getting a phone call.â
He definitely did not get a phone call but he pulled his phone out of his pocket and pressed it to his ear as if he did, breaking the awkwardness apart.
Neon âHello? No itâs not the wrong number, yeah I want to order 23 of those things that I was talking aboutâŠâ
He fake talked while Genesis just turned back to Vincent, leaning her hands back on the monitor table.
Genesis âGenesis so tired of just walking for mental health. Show me what to doâŠâ

A curious request. Vincent's eye wanders a bit until it settles on a random backstage worker passing through the area. Vincent takes a drag from his cigarette then calmly shifts his eyes back up to Genesis.
Vincent Hubbard: Look, I think you're fine the way you are but I can offer a suggestion. You're feeling anger and frustration, right? So why not get all of it out of your system? Go do something that will allow you to focus all those pent-up emotions, so that you can think clearly once again...fortunately, I've seen something that can do that.
A simple motion from his head sends her stare directly over to the worker, who has stopped to get some coffee.
Vincent Hubbard: You see that guy over there? You want a little bit of clarity, you go over there and you kick his ass. You do something that makes all of that frustration go away for a little while...and hopefully, you'll feel a little better.

Shit, great minds think alike, ain't that crazy?
Genesis turned toward the innocent worker who was just getting some coffee and then pushed herself away from the table. She stomped over to the man as if he had just spit on her food and Neon quickly ended his 'phone call'.
Neon "Uhhh, Jezzy what did you just tell her?"
He asked before Genesis clasped a strong hand around the man's neck out of nowhere, wasting a whole cup of Folger's as he dropped it on the floor.

An innocent little shrug and a not so innocent grin are his response.
Vincent Hubbard: I simply told her to go over there and 'unleash the beast' all over that poor bastard and MAYBE she might feel a little better. We can gauge the results once she's done with him...
He says matter-of-factly as he takes another drag from his cigarette.
