Chapter 1::Tied to the past......
The scene opens with AJ Phoenix standing alone outside in the dead of night. He stares up at the stars as he lightly swings a thick bullrope, we see it draped over his neck as he just swings it back and forth.
“This whole situation started because of one thing. Jealousy. Various members of the Age of the revolution believed they had certain things coming to them, certain privileges and titles. And now I guess in the eyes of many they got what was coming to them, they had beaten the resistance, they had destroyed the one group capable of stopping them. At the time the whole war meant nothing to me, it was a silly all consuming waste. But then NCW started to be broken down, it got torn apart around me and it started to be rebuilt in the image they all wished it to be, is this the image they wanted?. Is this their perfection?. Cause to me it looks like a self glorifying piece of trash. A communist government in the guise of a group, ruling over NCW with an iron fist.”
“Hell the proof was just this past Saturday night on Trauma. Angel and I were in the middle of yet another match, a brutal affair where we stood toe to toe in a fair match. And from the starting bell there was something different about this match. I looked in Angel’s eyes and even he knew that he was in real danger. Hell if the match hadn’t been a first blood match I would of had Angel five minutes in when I hit him with the BWAN. I kept beating on Angel, I kept hitting him strike after strike, but he wouldn’t bleed, I was trying to hurt Angel, not beat him, I had the chance to beat him but I let it slip away, I got caught up in making that piece of **** squeal , and oh did he squeal....what a sound it was Adam, to hear a man I hate moan in obvious pain, I have to say I...I liked it. “
“Is that how you felt when you destroyed Trent Helms?, a man who was your friend?. Is that how you feel when you use your size to push others around and destroy them?. I don’t want to be like you Adam. A man with no conscience, no feeling or emotions.”
AJ looks down he throws the bullrope over his head and lets it fall to the ground with a thud, AJ turns his head so we can see the large bandage over his nose, the insides of his eyes blackened by the shot to the face he suffered, AJ breathes deep, his jaw clenches as he feels his blood boil.
“I guess I won’t be like you. Cause even I’ll feel a little guilty about what I’m going to do to you Adam. See this isn’t just about me, this isn’t just about you costing me a chance to finally shut that dreadlocked Wednesday Adams up. This isn’t even about what you did to Trent, this is about you taking away our freedom. You have the power to do what you want when you want now, you killed the resistance once, but now from the ashes a new one will rise. One filled with men who have come together with one purpose, to end this war, and restore NCW to it’s true glory. But you don’t think that’ll happen do you Adam?. You think you’ll be able to take us out like you did the last group to face you. You think you’ll take me out like you did Trent Helms. You’re mistaken, See, people like you being in charge will lead to the destruction of this company, and this company is my life. It enables me to go out there and put smiles on people’s faces.”
“See people can come and see me in the ring and they can either cheer me and love it when I win, or they can boo me and love it when I lose, either way I make it my mission to make sure the fans go home happy, and I refuse to let you and the rest of your little group take that away from me....”
AJ smirks and looks away in deep thought, he tries to calm himself down.
“This war is only going to get worse, battlelines have been drawn, friendships will be destroyed. Bodies will lay broken. And now to get back to Angel, to destroy him I have to get through all of you. I see now my destiny lies with defeating him, and you Adam, you’re the first step on my path, many steps lie ahead but in the end I will cut a bloody brutal road to him. And god help anyone who stands before me.....”
“But then again, god won’t help you Knite. And your little girlfriend won’t be able to do anything but watch as I drag you screaming into my personal hell. You think the beating I gave Angel was bad?, You think the bruises he now has all over his clammy pale skin are going to be anything compared to what I do to you?. I need to make a statement, a point, a declaration. And I need to make it by beating you, but not just beating you, humiliating you, beating you in such a way that will force the Age of the revolution to wake up and realise this war is far from over."
"But I know what you’re thinking Adam, Falcon could take out Steve this Sunday and Manson and Ortega both have histories of choking, so really that just leaves me as the threat, and I know that you’re not foolish enough to not have backup waiting..but see I have some backup of my own. And when these men arrive, when they stare into your eyes and you see the kind of force that you’ll be up against, you’ll see this war just got kicked into Overdrive.....”
AJ’s eyes spark up as he starts laughing, two sets of footsteps are heard behind him as he turns around and the scene fades to black......
