Hello everyone, firstly, I want to say thank you those of you who read the first chapter of my first series which involved Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, especially those of you who left a rating, like and/or comment. I encourage you to leave a rating and comment on this and all of my stories so I can make sure I'm delivering good content for all of you. As I begin another series, I feel I should let everyone know that my hopes are that each series will stand out and be unique, so not every series just seems like the same thing, different names.

Series: The Tranquil Storm
Episode: Comfort Amid The Nudes
As much as she tried to bury it in the back of her mind, Toni Storm just couldn't seem to stop thinking about what had happened.
Once again, much like several weeks ago, a few more of her nudes had been leaked online. And as much support on social media as she received, she couldn't seem to shake off the embarrassment that she felt.
She had hopes that spending the afternoon working out at the performance center would distract her enough so that she could focus on the upcoming NXT UK Takeover event, where she was scheduled to challenge Rhea Ripley for the NXT UK Women's Championship. However, that just wasn't happening for her on this day.
Instead, after just an hour of working out, she couldn't focus any longer and retreated into the locker room, where she took a seat on the bench and almost instantly broke down into tears. Being one of the only people at the performance center, she figured she'd be safe to cry alone for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, the door to the PC was swinging open as Zelina Vega entered the training center. She had seen when she woke up that more nude photos of NXT UK's Toni Storm had been released and, despite the fact she hadn't spent very much time with Toni, felt oddly compelled to speak to her in-person. She saw soon after that Toni tweeted a photo of her working out at the PC, and decided to head down there to see if she could find her and talk to her. And, of course, get a workout of her own in.
As she entered the training area, she looked around, trying to find the blonde bombshell for whom she was looking. However, without seeing her out there, she worried that she might have missed her. That was, until, she walked into the locker room, immediately hearing weeping.
"Hello?" she asked as she walked around the wall and into the locker room, gasping when she saw Toni sitting on the bench, tears running down her cheeks. "Oh my gosh, Toni, are you okay?" she asked as she quickly rushed over and sat beside the Australian Rockstar. She put her arm over Toni's shoulder and gently gave her a comforting hug, "I actually came here looking for you, I saw what happened this morning, I'm so sorry to see that." Zelina sympathized.
Initially surprised by hearing someone come in, Toni tried to quickly stop crying. However, when Zelina entered and quickly began to comfort her, she let her guard down, continuing to weep as she felt Zelina's arms comfort her. Toni sniffled and wiped her cheeks, "I just... Why do people have to do this? Why don't people understand we're human too? This is so fucking embarrassing!" she vented as Zelina softly rubbed her back.
Nodding her head, Zelina totally understood how she felt, having gone through the exact same thing. "Hey, I totally get it, Toni. The same thing happened to me last year." she said, relating to the embarrassment Toni was feeling.
The Aussie turned her head to look at Zelina, "How did you handle it?" she asked softly.
Zelina thought about it for a minute, looking at Toni, "Well, umm..." she began pausing as she blushed slightly, "I coped in a slightly different way than most did." she said.
