{The shot opens to a familiar graveyard. A blanket mist of fog is covering the area. The cameraman is making his way across tombstones and grave sites. Names flash before the screen as the cameraman zooms in to the tombstone's heading. Engraved names of the long dead. We pass by a creepy looking tree that seems to dance with the moonlight, seemingly guarding the dead trapped inside the neighboring mausoleum. Finally the camera rests in front of a projection screen. One that is covering a freshly dug up grave. A gloved hand comes into screen and hits the power switch on the projector that is placed in front of the screen. the sound of rolling film, mixed with the howling evening wind, can be heard through out the cemetery.}

BLOOD DIAMOND
{The words present themselves in the middle of the screen before they scatter, disappearing out of frame. Appearing into frame is the lovely Lady. She opens her mouth as she goes from living, breathing to animated. She talks in a cold, monotone, British accent.}
Lady: Chris Diamond. The Masked Monster Maniac. Once accepted by your fellow legends as one of their own. Family man and loved among his peers. Many were deceived and believed that you had it all.
{Pictures pop up on screen of Chris Diamond and his family enjoying life. There are photos of his many accomplishments as Chris Diamond. Photos of his success with career, family and friends.}
Lady: My how times have changed. You have since taken that mask of humanity off and replaced it with one that is inhumane. Your quest is one of destruction and chaos. Your family and friends have fallen to the wayside. You truly believe that it is them that turned their backs on you. The reality is far from it. Now, you are truly alone.
{The happy photos go up in flames and they are replaced with the mask of Maniac. Pictures of the brutal beating he gave his brother are seen. The discussions with Falcon. The assaults on Rayne. The kidnapping of Teran. Photos of his destructive nature.}
Lady: Now you claim to be an unyielding, unrelenting monster. You claim to be here to kill, maim and destroy. Do you truly believe this to be true? This is a story about how Sense sees you through his eyes.
{The screen warps, from real life to animated. Think A Scanner Darkly.}
Lady: The boy was lonely in his world.
{A boy is seen in an empty room playing with a plush bunny.}
Lady: Unable to understand why his parents were the way they were.
{The boy's dad is seeing sitting on the couch drinking while his mom is shown in a bathtub with a needle in her arm.}
Lady: Nights would be spent avoiding his father's unjustly rule. These attempts at playing hide and seek would never end in the boy's favor.
{The boy's abusive father can be seen searching the boy's room. Once the boy is located he proceeds to remove his belt and lashes huge welts across the boy's back.}
Lady: Nights will come and nights will go, but this was the one constant. For no reason the boy would be beat. His loving mother was never around to console him.
{The boy is seen in his empty room clinging to the plush bunny, tears streamed down his cheeks like a roaring river while his mother was still laying in the bathtub with a needle in her arm.}
Lady: From time to time he would find himself running away. Escaping the household torture that brought him to his knees day in and day out. Running out to the world would yield unlucky results.
{The boy is seen running from three rather huge individuals. The boy runs into a dead end and the three boys proceed to beat on the helpless boy.}
Lady: Everywhere he turned he was alone in this world. With nowhere to run he began to look within for help.
{The boy is laying in a hospital bed staring at the wall. Almost in a zombie like state. The wall stretches and a black tar oozes out of it. It makes it's way to the boy and rubs up against his leg like a purring house cat. The boy pets it and smiles.}
Lady: Suddenly, life was not so bad anymore. His new friend made sure of that.
{The boy is walking out of the house with the tar like substance resting on his shoulders as the home goes up in flames.}
Lady: Finally able to take a stand on those that would force him to lay down. The boy's perspective on life became shockingly dark.
{The boy is seen torturing cats and playing pranks on random people that would end with someone being injured. No longer crying, the boy would do unto others as they have done unto him. The black tar grew with each act of aggression.}
Lady: Unbeknownst to the little boy, his friend was actually his enemy. One fateful day it all came to pass.
{The boy is seen being chased by the three individuals from before. Trapped at a dead end the boy expected his beat down. Only now the black tar oozed out of him and began assaulting the bullies. Taking a humanoid shape and beating them to an inch of their lives.}
Lady: The boy believing this was his savior was relieved. That is until the truth came out.
{The tar like substance reached out to the boy and wrapped around his head. Suffocating the young boy until he was lifeless. Once the boy hits the floor and takes his last breath, the tar morphs into a mask and attaches itself to his face. The boy rises as a new man. Fully grown and out of his mind.}
Lady: At his end the boy took comfort in knowing he was stronger than others, the reality was that he was slowly dying.
{The black masked man walks out into the distance. Staggering and taking the boy's soul with him.}
Lady: You claim to be in control, Maniac. Are you sure the mask doesn't control you? It just might be that inside, that bullied little boy is still suffocating. Reaching to escape. By making a monster bleed, the man will cease to be. This is a tale of the precious Blood Diamond.
{As the masked man walks out of frame, a man steps into it. Once again an animated Sense is grinning from ear to ear at the chaos that has befallen the boy. The black tar is resting on his hand. An up close shot of an animated Sense becomes an up close shot of the real Sense. Lex is standing before a recently dug up grave and the projector and projection screen are nowhere to be seen. Sense appears to be pissing on the tombstone. The yellow stream rolling down the concrete headstone like Niagara Falls. Looking relieved he stares into the camera, grinning as he begins to speak.}

Lex Sense: Maniac... you truly are an inspiration to those with a screw loose in their head. It truly is exhilarating to bear witness to your ability to tune out your moral compass and tune it that which broadcasts through your mind... destruction. You manage to shake off feelings of regret without so much as a whimper. It's motivational to see what you've become from what you were.
{Sense seems to be shaking off the last drops of urine. Sighing as he does. Once he is done he begins to cough up a noogie and spits it into the open grave.}
Lex Sense: This place is rather depressing and it's the type of place you like to spend quality time with your parents. You've stated that I am always one step behind you but, maybe that is where I enjoy wasting MY time. One step behind to enjoy your work from one step forward. I think that you and I are similar in nature. That is my reason for being in this match. You are the reason I am in this match. In time you may come to realize that a partnership with me and Higher Authority may suit you. Until that time I guess I will just have to beat some sense into you.
{Sense stares directly into the camera as if staring directly at Maniac.}
Lex Sense: All pleasantries aside. I am in this match to fight Maniac. Everyman an Karras' feud, while entertaining, is just an extra slice of pie. We are warring factions fighting for our beliefs. Four negative ends attempting to find the positive. We are monsters on the verge of apocalyptic destruction. Maniac will bleed before the night is through, as will all of you. I will taste the sweet nectar that runs through your veins and in doing so I will become better than you. I am in this quarrel with nothing to hold me down. I am in no need for veangance like Everyman. I have no desire to destroy Karras for vanquishing my seed like Maniac. I definitely don't have a God to serve and people to save like Karras. These burdens weigh heavily on your souls and this weight shall be the death of you. I will be the death of you. Unlike you, I've got no strings.
{Sense begins whistling the tune, "I've Got no Strings"}
Lex Sense: "I've got no strings, So I have fun, I'm not tied up to anyone. They've got strings, But you can see, there are no strings on me".
{After creepily singing that verse, Lex picks up a clump of dirt and throws it into the camera. The mud covers the view. When it is wiped we see a hooded Sense walking down a street with the lovely, gothic Lady by his side. The graveyard is nowhere to be seen.}
Lex Sense: This match is unlike any other match. Much like it's participants there is a hint of violence in it. I have been living my life violently for the past 10 years. Do not let this facade of a handsome, well-mannered gentleman fool you. I can be as deadly as they come. The three of you wankers may have, at one point in your careers, been beasts. Now you have become nothing more than annoying little pups biting at your masters ankles for scraps, begging to be fed. I will be the one to bring out your wickedness. Using my fists to prove a point.
{Sense stares down a couple of Canadians as he is walking down the Calgary streets leading to the arena. Lady, who is dressed like a 19th century Victorian belle, walks beside him, silent.}
Lex Sense: This pay-per view's promos have been the work of my brain and Higher Authority's resources. This lovely young lady you see standing next to me is known as Lady Die. She will be joining the women's roster in a few weeks. Not by my request of course. You see all kidding aside I have a mission statement. In this statement it says that I shall conquer all forms of business inside or outside of that ring in the name of Higher Authority. Seeing as since I have arrived, I am yet to be defeated. I hold the Honor belt and am it's champion. I am a current theme in Kelly's Knitelife and weekly awards. I have defeated nCw's past, present and future. I retired the young and naive Daniel S. Hunter. I will say that we are, rather I am, doing a hell of job.
{Sense stops his pace and stares into the lens. While Lady Die seems to be disgusted by Canadians.}
Lex Sense: I heard Everyman's statements about dreams and nightmares and it's such a silly notion made by a silly man. However, I pushed you to see what all the fuss was about. I must say that there is a little fire in you when you are not in the act of self loathing. I can sympathize, but that will not stop me from caving your skull in. Karras is running around talking to voices inside his head. Too busy saving others and not realizing that I will end him. Maniac.. well Maniac is being Maniac and I have nothing to say about him. The blood that will soak the ring red will say all that needs to be said. Beware fools, While you are concerning yourselves with trivial matters, my only concern is whether I should use a chair or a table to gain the victory.
{Lex steps back as a young boy eating ice cream walks by. Sense sees this boy give him a look. Lex reaches down and snatches the ice cream. The boy cries as Sense offers some to Lady Die who gives Sense a disgusted look. From behind the camera we hear Matt the Trucker.}
Matt the Trucker: Come on man. Now you're stealing candy from children?
Kids Mom: You can't do th...
{Before she could finish her sentence Lady Die steps in front of her and gives her an intense look. The mother, as if hypnotized with fear, steps back and walks away in a hurry.}
Lady Die: This place has a horrid smell. Canadians stench is far worse than American's, I'm sure.
Lex Sense: Now, Now. This ice cream is flavorful but your complaining is leaving a sour taste in my mouth.
{Seconds later the boy's father approaches Sense. Not knowing what he is getting himself into. Foolishly attempting to win back his family's honor.}
Kid's Dad: Around these parts you can not treat people like that, eh. What in Canada's fertile Earth do you think you are d...
{Lex Smashes the ice cream cone in the man's face. The man in shock, takes a few steps back and is further surprised by a hellish front kick to his chest. The man flies backwards into a store window. The shops owner is attending to the broken man as Lady Die cracks a smile. The boy's mother attempts to run to her husband's aid before Lady Die clotheslines her into the snow. Practically burying her and proceeds to rub her face in the snow. The boy now weeping as Sense gets on one knee to meet the boy's gaze.}
Lex Sense: In this world kid, you are either the swallower or the swallowed. No amount of vengeance will ever make up for this moment. No mask will be safe for you to hide behind. Most important of all... no God can save you.
{He pushes the boy back and continues walking away. Lady Die teasing the boy, finding pleasure in the boy's pain.}
Lex Sense: You all are monsters in your own respected rights. I, however, am no monster. I am but a man that does not give a monkey's uncle what befalls you. I will use everything within my reach to dismantle the three of you. When my hand is raised in victory, all of nCw shall know that I AM the dominating force to be feared.
{Sense pushes the camera away with the audio still on.}
Matt the Trucker: I can't believe you did that to that poor boy. It's no wonder no cameraman will work with you.
Lex Sense: That is why we have you Matthew ol' boy... Lady, did you enjoy that?
Lady Die: Immensely.
{The camera's feed cuts off.}
