{Scene Start: The camera begins and we are shown a wide stretch of water front with the waves crashing against the sand and shoals as the camera pulls back some to reveal a large beach front house with a wide and expansive back deck where none other than the “Rated R Reaper” himself, Alex Slayer, is leaning against the railing and enjoying the view of the ocean that lay before him as he is dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a gray shirt with his signature mane flowing in the breeze}
Voice: Deep in thought as usual, partner?
{Alex shakes his head and turns to look at the speaker to reveal an equally as tall Japanese man with reddish-brown hair and dressed comfortably but there is something almost formal about his casual clothes-like he’s always doing business, this is Thomas Bane-Alex’s tag team partner in other promotions as the Shinigami Foundation}
Alex: Not as much, Thomas. I’ve been kind of bored actually.
Thomas: Well that can’t stand, especially since you’ve got that title match coming up for...what was the company again?
Alex: Project Honor.
Thomas: Ah...yes. Rather dreary sounding company name isn’t?
{Alex laughs just a little bit as he turns his head to see the sinister smile that is on the face of his partner and friend}
Alex: True, took me awhile but I finally got myself a victory.
Thomas: Yes, I saw that. I raised a glass of the finest red wine in tribute to your win. But now you’re facing down the guns of several other young men and women...just to claim some championship. It’s almost disgusting how they keep shoving you into multiman matches and tag matches, but yet don’t give you a proper time to shine.
{Alex doesn’t say anything but he lets out a derisive snort before nodding in agreement{
Alex: True, but that’s neither here nor there, Thomas. I’m not afraid of the work.
Thomas: Ah, spoken as a true samurai.
Alex: <laughing bitterly> I’m no more a “samurai” than Arata Asakura is a “shogun” or Myojin is a “shining star”. The only thing, the only *TRUE* thing that the three of us have in common is that we’re all just men who are trying to prove who is the true face of our respective companies.
{Thomas takes this moment to allow himself a rather wicked smile}
Thomas: And tell me, where does that place you?
Alex: As the only *true* man in this situation. While Asakura can pound upon his fragile chest all that he wants and tries to piss down upon poor Ryo Sakazaki, Asakura has forgotten what truly makes a champion great is his ability to remain dominant.
He has only proven himself to be the true weakest link.
Thomas: And Myojin?
Alex: He has some potential, but he beats upon his chest the same as Asakura and just like Asakura, he too will fail.
{Thomas nods as he moves to stand next to his friend}
Thomas: Then tell me, Alexander Kazauma...what makes you different than those two? Going into this pay per view for Project Honor...what makes you different than all of the rest that will no doubt bang their gongs and claim dominance?
What makes you...actually different?
{Alex looks at Thomas with a questioning look at which point the older man simply smiles as he raises his glass to his lips}
Thomas: Ponder upon that.
///////////////////////////////////////////////
{The screen blacks out and then comes back where we find Alex standing behind a table with his hand flat on the table itself}
Alex: When I first came here to Project Honor with Devon, I had such great hopes for my time here in this promotion. I was expecting one great singles match after another or the occasional tag team match where I could show off with a really killer partner.
But instead I find myself in one endless loop of multiman matches, a constant stream of free for alls and pointless tag team matches...but hey, I finally got a win in my last outing right?
{Alex’s face takes on a rather annoyed look}
Alex: I have endured the mocking statements about me from a lot of lesser people my whole career thus far, that shit I can and have dealt with no problem but when a company decides to push some no talent hacks like Caliber rather than someone with the skill level that I possess.
Well...there's just only so much that a man can take right?
So, at Unbreakable, it's going to be my resolution to let each and everyone involved in the six way for the Warrior Rising championship know my rage. To give each and everyone of you a reason to start giving me the proper fucking *respect* that I am owed because I am going into this match the most skilled technical bastard in this entire match.
{The expression of anger on Alex's face lessens just a little bit}
Alex:
Perhaps not in the case of Daniel Horror, him I actually respect just enough not to try and break his neck with a suplex and besides...my kid brother might get angry if I break one of his favorite co-workers.
But the rest of you like TJ Thompson. I've heard about you..."Hipbeast". And that's exactly what I've seen, nothing but words coming from the mouth of a man who claims to be the "Yung Goat" but has yet to impress anyone other than tapping out like a bitch to Myojin in a make or break moment of his career in another promotion.
Tell me, "Hipbeast", what makes you so great? What makes you worthy to step into that very ring with me? I mean it seems like to me that you just got into this business for the money and the women rather than any actual love of the sport or the art that is professional wrestling!
Well TJ, allow me to shatter some of your dreams for your time here in Project Honor because I am an artist where it comes to suplexes...just like my father was before me...and I fully intend to make you suffer gladly for my art and oh what art I shall composed upon your beaten and bruised skin, TJ. It will be a technical masterpiece that will shatter your senses...before I break one of your arms and take it for my own.
{Alex shakes his head in disgust before reaching down and picking up a picture, looks at it for a few seconds before he holds it up to reveal a picture of the current Warrior Rising champion in Sarah Roberts}
Alex: I'll freely admit that when you and I first stepped into the ring together, Sarah...I had written you off in all honesty. I didn't think that you had the right set of brass ones to do what you accomplished that night.
Bravo.
{Alex then slams the picture down onto the table}
Alex: But I won't be making that mistake a second time, fuck that noise. No, this time I'm gunning for you right at the start and if someone else gets in my way then I'll simply have to step *through* them to get to you because you...you are the only real threat in this entire match.
You made that abundantly clear to me in our last outing against each other and now I get the chance to rectify my mistake because had I taken you just a little bit more seriously than I did last time, you'd be the one walking into this match as a challenger for the very title that you now hold.
So you won't catch me napping, Sarah. Not twice in so many weeks because the moment that bell rings, you I'll be more than pleased to send you on a one way trip down to Innsmouth with no return ticket involved because where it comes to you and me, I created this monster and I fully intend slay this monster before it gets any stronger.
{Alex shakes his head before he picks up two more pictures and holds them for the camera to see that it head shots of both Euan Hill and Legion respectively before he tosses them both back down onto the table}
Alex: As for the two of you, Euan and Legion. I honestly don't know what to do with either one of you because on one side we have you, Euan. You call yourself...what, the "Father's Son" like you're some kind of preacher's kid and yet...
{Alex actually stops and then laughs to himself}
Alex: Sorry, I took another look at your picture and realized that you *DO* look like a preacher's son, because I've only ran into two kinds of people like that, Euan. One is the kids who dress and act just like their bible thumping fathers and become just as morally corrupt and soulfully sick as their very parents if not more so...
{Alex then motions at the camera with his left hand}
Alex: Or they look like you, they struggle to get out from under that holier than thou shadow that they become the very physical existence of their father's pious filled corruption.
Just how you look, while I.
{Alex then places his left hand palm flat onto the center of his chest}
Alex: I'm exactly my father's son and I've accepted it. Just like I've accepted being my stepfather's son as well...because being the child of two prime evils of this sport has helped me to realize that whatever sins you might be selling, Euan...they pale in comparison to what my fathers' have done over the course of their careers.
So come Unbreakable Resolution, I invite you fully to be broken by me and thus we can finish out your never ending cycle before it even starts here in Project Honor...it's the least that I can for such a wounded soul.
But you, Legion.
You’re an unknown factor and that just cannot exist in this situation, it can’t exist because you’ve been sitting there...quiet as a dormouse and no doubt watching and waiting for the right time to strike at anyone or thing. But that won’t help you in this match, Legion, no...this is an all out war of the senses and yours can’t match mine.
{Alex then leans forward, placing both of his hands flat on the table and looking hard into the camera’s view}
Alex: You see when I say that when you live by the sword that you die by the sword as well, it’s not some cute little catch phrase to put on a shirt or a simple slogan but a method of thinking and a belief that I hold very close to me.
You see while some of you step into that ring and expect glory to be handed to you like candy to children at Christmas, I actually seek it out with my own two hands and then I fight until my knuckles are swollen and bloody to ensure that very victory is mine.
And that is the very reason why at the last Project Honor show of the year, I fully intend to bring Project Honor’s Warrior Rising championship home with me to the Foundation. To place it in our trophy case as the corner stone of the foundation to build up our wall of glory’s foundation from...and there is not a damned thing that anyone of you five that can do to stop me.
Not a single one of you is actually hungry for a real fight, maybe Sarah is...but I think that she’s more full on herself believing that she’ll walk out the same way that she’ll walk into this match...with that championship intact.
At Unbreakable, I plan on breaking everything .
Ponder on that, boys and girls. Ponder on what futures beatings that are to come.
{The screen then fades to black}
