(Falcon was waiting in the house, when she got home. She was laughing, walking up the path to the door, hungover from her good time. She went to turn her key into the lock, and found that the door was already open. She stepped into the darkness, and flicked on the light. Falcon was sitting in the chair, waiting. His eyes opened at the sudden flash of light that permeated the room.)
Zelda: What? Don't tell me you were waiting for me to come home to ask where I've been...
(She was angry, justifiably so. But Falcon shook his head.)
Falcon: No, I just want to talk that's all.
(She doesn't buy it. Instead huffing and sitting down on the couch, well more like plopping down on it.)
Falcon: Look.. Zelda..
(Falcon stopped a second, wanting to get the words together. She just glared at him.)
Zelda: Look if I wanted a lecture, I'd ask Gib to tell me about the birds and the bees.
Falcon: No.. it's not that.. I just want to talk to you, tell you a few things...
Zelda: ...Ok.. I'm listening..
Falcon: Zelda.. I love you.. and I always will. I want to stand behind you when you need support, beside you when you need a hand, and in front of you when you feel vulnerable. I just want to be there for you.. that's why I let you do what you want. I have no issue with you having a night of fun with your friends.. whether it be Jacobsen or the Young Guns, because I will always be waiting for you to come back.
Zelda: ....
Falcon: I know it seems like I don't do anything of the lovey stuff.. but to be honest, the happiest I ever see you is sitting in that room, controller in your hand and talking trash to some guy that's half the world away. Who am I to drag you from your happiness? Who am I to walk in there and be like.. ok.. let's get all dressed up and go out to dinner.. You're not a show pony.. I don't want to drag you into the public spotlight anymore than I have to, because I know what it's like... who would I be if I did all that?
Zelda: ....My boyfriend...
Falcon: You really feel that way?
Zelda: Yes...
Falcon: Does.. Jacobsen make you feel like you want to feel?
Zelda: I'm.. not sure..
Falcon: Well, I'll be here.. when you come to a decision.. The people are us are wrong Zelda.. I'd fight the world to keep you safe.. but I won't fight your heart making it's own decisions.
What could I possibly say about Angel that I haven't already said at least two dozen times? The man is my brother, my best friend, my greatest rival and a feared enemy all in one. We team, it's epic.. we fight, it's epic.. because we're two of the best this world has ever seen. And no matter what the outcome is, we always go back to the way things were before. And just like me.. everytime Angel speaks.. ninety eight percent of the time he is..
Absolutely right.
Everything he said was true, if you don't fight for what you love, it will leave you because they will think you don't care. But honestly, what am I supposed to do? Tell her not to see him? How is that fair to either of them? Sure common convention says I should pull some if you try to sleep with my girlfriend I'll kill you routine. But what does that prove? All it does is show my jealousy and insecurity and I really don't feel that. I'd fight the world to keep Zelda at my side, but one person I won't fight on it..
Is Zelda herself.
If she wants to stay, she'll stay. If she wants to go, then she'll go. Nothing I can really do to change that for either better or worse. All I can do is show her that I think I'm the best man for her, because in my heart I believe that I am. The rest is not up to me...
(Falcon sat on the edge of the ring, holding a can of mountain dew in his hand. Angel had gone home with Tara, and he was alone for the time being. Other wrestlers were milling about, but Falcon paid them no mind. Until a voice rang out.)
Jacobsen: Heyyy Buddy...
(nCw's wonder kid, Andrew Jacobsen. He was freshly changed into workout gear.)
Falcon: Andrew...
Jacobsen: So.. uhh.. wanna work on some strategy?
Falcon: In a bit, just got through a session with Angel.
(Jacobsen's head tilted to the side quizically.)
Jacobsen: Fraternizing with the enemy?
(Falcon half grinned.)
Falcon: I suppose you could call it that. It's not like I showed him anything he didn't already know.
Jacobsen: You guys have been friends for a long time, right?
Falcon: Yea.. through hate and anger, peace and solitude, comeradery and kinship.. we are brothers in arms and all that.
Jacobsen: Even if you try to kill each other?
Falcon: Even if...
Jacobsen: That's rare...
Falcon: We're a rare breed.. look.. uhh Andrew...
Jacobsen: You're.. going to talk to me about Zelda.. aren't you?
(Falcon opens his mouth to speak, but Jacobsen starts talking first.)
Jacobsen: Look, nothing is going on between us, ok? Sure, she's been a little more forward with me.. and yes her attitude has changed quite a bit. But I'm not out to steal her, I'm not out to betray you to try and make myself feel better, I'm not that kind of man.
Falcon: That's.. good...
(Jacobsen exhales, thankful at having gotten that out in one shot.)
Falcon: But that wasn't my concern. See, I know you're a good kid.. I know if you want something, you're going to deal with it in the open. But I'm just here to warn you..
Jacobsen: Stop seeing Zelda or you'll kick my ass?
Falcon: No, no no... I'm talking about Angel. I know you think he's lost a step and whatnot, but if you've ever trusted anything I've ever told you I need you to trust me on this kiddo...
Jacobsen: Trust you on what? That's he's not the same dangerous animal he once was..
Falcon: No... that he is. I know the man Drew. If you keep being cavalier about this, and tempting fate, you will end up hurt.. and I don't want to see that happen.. for your sake.. for hers.. and for nCw's...
(Jacobsen says nothing, looking thoughtfully off to the side a moment.)
Falcon: I'll let you think on that.. let's get started.
Not much to say to Doc either. I mean, what else is there? The Young Guns seem to be unable to decide if they want to fall apart or stick together. Venom is trying out a secondary career as a talk show host. Doc is doing his best Brad Kane impression and not giving a damn about anything it seems. JFK is... well nobody knows where. I guess Phase 2 of the plan was disapear off the grid. Hell, the only one moving anywhere is Velez, and that's always been the case.
Hasn't it?
Tell you one thing Doc. You are in an enviable position. You're teaming this week with one of the greatest wrestlers the world has ever seen. A man who can team with virtually anybody and have success on some level. A man who also likes to win matches, even when he wants to kill the man he's standing next to. This may be one time where you can slack around and mail it in and still come out on top, the man is just that good. Even as good as I am, I have no problem admitting that fact. Angel is primed and ready to make each and every moment his. So my advice is to wait until the match is over..
Before jumping him from behind like coward.
I get it. You're mad you lost the titles, get over it. I'll tell you the same thing I tell everybody else. Fighting Angel isn't a picnic, and it's certainly something you won't walk away from if you're not careful. You mess with the bull, you get the horns. Taunt the serpent, and you get bit. And every other cliche along those lines. But hey, it's your life..
Let it end how you want.
No sweat off my brow, bucky.
Zelda: What? Don't tell me you were waiting for me to come home to ask where I've been...

We live in a cold dark world
With venom in it's veins
You could spit it in my face
But I know I'll be ok

It's on the attack
It's a war, it's a game
A ball and chain
Chew my arm off to get away

Feels like a kick in the teeth
I can take
Throw your stones
And you won't see me breaking
Say what you want
Take your shots
Setting me free
With one more kick in the
Teeth
Nanananananana....
