When Ziane saw that she had enemies, she grew close to another sports female player who played basketball. Her name was Resurren. She taught Ziane some things about how to play basketball, and Ziane taught Resurren some things about baseball. However Ziane was better at playing baseball and Resurren was better at playing basketball. They played with the guys on the playground in both sports for fun in their spare time together.

Resurren told Ziane about the middle man on the playground and how he mistreated her. Ziane told Resurren that she made a wise choice to play ball for her school.

She said to Resurren: You don’t need the middle man to help you do anything. Stay in school, and when you finish school, I can help you.

Resurren told Ziane it would take forever because she was just a freshman in high school. Ziane laughed and told her again to stay in school. Ziane was like a big sister to Resurren, and Resurren was like a little sister to Ziane. She helped her to keep her mind off troublesome things.

Ziane grew up around a family of notorious crime lords. They were her uncles and male cousins, but she stayed away from them, and hung tight with her mother and father. Especially her father. Like her father, she knew how to create and make things happen. Ziane was very brilliant, and her father warned her not to use her knowledge for evil. Ziane lived in Side Mount City, and there was nothing but crime. Nobody bothered Ziane because everyone knew her family.

When people feared Ziane, it wasn’t because she was dangerous. They feared her because she was brilliant. When she became known in baseball, the gangsters on the street began to call her Latorious.

But there was a crime lord in the city who did not know Ziane’s family. He had one of her uncles murdered. When he came into the city, crime was bigger than it ever was. Ziane moved her mother and father out of the city.

Ziane had became so popular in women’s baseball that she was seen on the news by the crime lord at a bar. When the crime lord saw how well Ziane could play, he wanted to own the baseball team. He had been told that she was the niece of the man that he murdered. The crime lord kept his eyes glued on the television to watch Ziane.

He said: Hmmm? She plays better than the men.

The crime lord wanted to own a sports channel for women and film the female baseball players. He saw that he could make a business using Ziane’s baseball talent. He talked about it in the bar sipping on his drink and the word got back to Ziane. It spreaded around to the entire whole sport of baseball. There were men in the sport that wanted to protect Ziane.
The crime lord received threats from male baseball players that he should leave Side Mount City. That was strike one for him. The crime lord owned a male men’s baseball team back in his hometown. He challenged the number one top male team in Side Mount City of baseball to play against his team.

He said: If I lose, I will leave Side Mount City.

When Ziane heard the crime lord’s words, she felt that there would be a terrible and dangerous war for the sport of baseball and her city. She warned the baseball team not to play against the crime lord’s team.

But it was a war that was already won before it began. There were City people rising up against the crime lord and his gang that took over their city. That was strike 2. The word got back to the mayor of the city how the crime lord and his gang had Ziane’s uncle murdered and how a game war was about to happen. That was strike 3. The mayor of the city had the crime lord arrested, but his men got away. It was written in the Morning Riselines and Lady Ziane Richardson was then named The Latorious Ziane.
