SXSW
After a successful night at Mayhem last week, Tyler Gates took a few days to spend some time with friends in North Carolina and now he was in Austin, Texas spending some rest and relaxation time at the festival known as South By Southwest. Tyler is standing on a grassy knoll looking down at a pavilion where a band is performing. He is wearing torn jeans, and a 'Thin Lizzy' retro tee. He has a red solo cup of beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other. He took some time to interact with a few fans who stopped for some pictures and autographs. He is now alone and enjoying the show when someone else recognizes him in the crowd..

::*:: Heather Helmsley waves her arm in the air at Tyler, then heads in his direction. She has a bottle of water in one hand, her cell phone in the other. She wore a pair of ripped up jeans and a vintage DX t-shirt, her long blonde hair braided down her back. ::*::
Heather Helmsley
Well look at that, we ran into each other when we were both Rookies here and now we meet again.
::*:: A few male fans come up to her, she puts her phone in her pocket, bottle of water under her arm and signs a few pictures. She then walks over and nudges Tyler with her elbow. ::*::
Heather Helmsley
How's it goin' Gates?

He may or may not have had a few beers already. He is catch a bit off guard as she elbows him and nearly spills his cup.
Tyler Gates: And how about that? We both had title shots that we lost. What a small world indeed. Must forgive me, I've has few of these and I am slightly bitter. So how is Heather these days? Came a long way since that night at the hotel.
He takes another drink before looking to the stage and then back to her.

::*:: Heather looks to him and half-smiles. She knew that feeling of bitterness. All she knew was she had fueled that into Melody Lee this past Friday. ::*::
Heather Helmsley
Yeah, I know that feeling of bitterness and feeling less than what you really are. I've been there, I just tried not to let it bother me, just put all that aggression towards Melody Lee. I fought my hardest as did Madison and she had more that night. You fought hard too Tyler...I thought you had him honestly. I was pullin' for ya. Hey we both just came off wins too...Sooo We have quite a bit in common here.
And as for myself, I'm good... Great in fact. What brings ya to South by Southwest? Any certain band? Or just the atmoshere?
::*:: She laughed knowing Tyler was obviously into music. She took a chug of water as she looked into the crowd then back to him. ::*::

Tyler Gates: I suppose you're right. I come every year because I am from Denton which is about an hour north from here. So I get a chance to visit old friends and family. A taste of home is nice when we travel so much.
He says now in a less sarcastic tone. He had been tense the last few weeks coming off of Meltdown.

::*:: She looked to him and smiled ::*::
Heather Helmsley
Eh I just stopped by to see what all the Buzz was about. I'm on my way to LA for Mayhem. My plane hand to land with a minor safety issue, so I was stuck here in Texas for a night. The clerk at the desk of my hotel suggested it...Well..Someone is waiting for me.
::*:: She pointed over to a tall man dressed in jeans and a black tee, wearing a hat to disguise his face::*::
Heather Helmsley
I better get back to him before he gets testy. So I'll see ya Friday probably at the arena right? You have a match correct?

Tyler Gates: Awww why's he in disguise?
Tyler wasn't entirely sure who it could be. He kind of shrugged it off.
Tyler Gates: Yeah, I am in a four way match with a random set of opponents, go figure.
