Making this Moment last
Our scene opens to the rafters of the arena used for the Global
Wrestling Division in Las Vegas, Nevada and we see Equinox standing alone in a
dark stairway above the arena most likely in the rafters with an umbrella in
hand tilting his head to the side. He presses his hands up tightly around the
handle of the umbrella as he looks toward the camera with a faint, twisted
smile and lets out a soft laugh. Ladders are all around him below. The GZWA
Television Championship hanging over his head by a shadowy figures hand. We
can’t see who it is yet.
Equinox:
“Looks like our time to rise is drawing ever
closer. Global Wrestling Division presents Puroresu II and tonight I got a huge
Four Way Match against three of GWD’s best in Maki, 7800 or 2600 and before
Konrad sees this video, yes they are really wrestlers…& Nate Nolan. It’s
straight to business and that’s how I like it. I’m not interested in sniffing
around in the shadows, waiting for a chance. I came here to do battle and once
that smoke clears I will be flying to GZWA for my triple threat ladder match
with my Television Championship on the line. Whose my opponents none other than
Konrad Raab & Brother Zachariah.”
Nox chuckles as The Television Championship swings above his
head.
“The Television Championship I have fought so hard to make
relevant. Make it as important as the World Title. To be honest I intend to
make it even more relevant than the World Title ever was. That championship has
been known for being held by Psycho’s, pretend monsters and a hooker who won it
by uncanny means then dropped it. So I think it’s safe to say I already have
made this title more important than the World Title will ever be. At the last PPV, I struck a win while you
struck nothing but a lose in the Pay per view column, Konrad. That’s not to say
you weren’t an excellent champion because you were. I would have to admit
beside me you are the best wrestler in this company.”
He pauses for a moment
“I came here to rise to the top. I came here to be the best.
Anyone on this roster that says they are here for any other reason is out of
their mind, and clearly in the wrong place. Those of us here have been given a
tremendous opportunity. To be wrestling in a title match you guys is the fight
I have been wanting for a while. GZWA has had a long and storied history, but
this time its going to be written little different with me beating you both in
this ladder match.”
Equinox begins to walk down the dark steel steps, his head
still titled, rubbing his hands together as he continues to talk.
Equinox: See last time I fought a former champion at the
last PPV in Chris Matthews, I came out with the win and then it lead me onto
better things as you can see you’re GZWA Television Champion. At the end of the
night this Monday Night, I am going to repeat that result by beating you Konrad.
I faced you twice before and I won both times here so far. I still have a lot
to prove and I am going to be that person to rise from the ashes of two losses
like a phoenix and beat you at GZWA. I am going to make this my mission to
become the Longest Reigning Champion and most title defenses in this title
reign too. Konrad make no mistake when all is said and done I respect you very
much. But I won’t let this title become yours.”
Equinox lets out a soft chuckle before he continues.
Equinox: “Then there is you Brother Zachariah. How can I be
so confidant? It’s quite simple. It’s elementary my dear Zach. I have to be.
The moment you though yourself in that ring untouchable, you've already lost. I
know exactly what I need to do, and I know exactly how far I’m willing to go to
win this. There is no risk I’m not willing to take, there is no reason I will
ever give up, and I will absolutely never relent. I will continue fighting
until no one is left to stand between myself being the first EVER person in
this company to hold the GZWA World Heavyweight Championship & The
Television Championship at THE SAME TIME.”
He pauses for a moment
Equinox: “This is my first title defense where I have defended a title in quite some time in a ladder match. The last time I’ve come across the stipulation was in SCW against Andrew Garcia. Man that was a time to
be alive. Word round the block people have called it Magic'. Yes that’s it...'Magic'...What
do I say to that? I say I will create Magic again.”
Slight pause from the champion
“I’m going up against a man who just thinks he’s untouchable?
Tell me Zach didn’t you get a concussion because of me and Konrad? I thank
management for giving me this shot to prove myself. I have been asked if I fear
losing my championship. I’m not convinced you’re unbeatable and untouchable.
Because the last time I was in the ring with you, your ass was getting whopped
by me and Konrad. See all you do is talk. I’m a man willing to go to any length
to make sure I succeed since I won this belt. I’m going to be generous here and
give you a little advice. Focus less on looking scary which by the way you are
horrible at and focus more on making sure you are prepared for the coming
onslaught.”
He chuckles. That was funny to be honest.
“All the body paint
you put on your body won’t make me anymore convinced Zach. I don’t fear you. Once
you step into the ring with me, your flashy outfits will do nothing to stop my kicks
or my flips. I came here to fight, and I came here to win. When I’m done, the
only thing 'Magic' about you will be how you make it to any of the upcoming
shows when I break your legs before the following week.”
Equinox pauses and lifts his face to look at the camera
again, another twisted grin spreads across his visage
Equinox: “Get some rest, Konrad. And get your head straight.
I know you have never competed in a ladder match and I will break you in this
match. Mentally and Physically. I will make you remember my name and how I made
history. To Zach you shouldn’t be upset when you lose to me. Some men just weren’t meant to stand at the
top of the mountain. As long as I’m here, you both will be in for the fight of
your life.. That is the way it is foretold. So let it be written. In heaven. In
Hell. On Earth. In the Universe and the space time continuum. Can’t you feel
it? I can feel it calling in the air tonight.”
A heckled laugh can be heard as the video feed slowly loses
contact.
T H R E E - D A Y S - R E M A I N I N G<o:p></o:p>
The scene opens up to an abandoned classroom, mid 1800’s and
old as hell. Ravens can be seen picking at tables, chairs and bones even little
spiders crawling around on the floor as a voice is heard.
“I guess some congratulations are in order to Konrad regaining his Rebellion UK Ballroom
Championship.”
Those words were what was heard as the camera began
recording. The location seems to be inside a church that is halfway through a
renovation. However the place looks completely empty as there doesn’t seem to
be a single soul here, except for the one man who is sitting on one of the benches
is Equinox, twirling his umbrella on his shoulder. This upcoming GZWA is the go
home before Riot Control. Equinox is going up against an old opponent of his in
Konrad Raab once more. He’s also facing Brother Zachariah. Equinox seems to rather
calm which is unnatural for the looking Bizarre superstar.
“Congratulations on getting in my head or at least trying,
boys. You both seek the gold I have been holding since December and look to
make yourselves champion.”
After saying his words, he stood up from his bench, turned
to the side and walked. His left hand trailed against the top of the bench
until he reached the end closest to the recording device and turned himself to
face the camera that is recording him.
Equinox:
“I should also congratulate you on some other things as
well. You both failed to beat me in our 1st encounter in GZWA, Mr. Konrad and
Mr. Zachariah. Konrad you have beaten me so many times before. Heck, I should
congratulate you for lighting the very fire in my belly. That’s why I think I
have beaten you thus far lately or as I stated earlier on. You spread yourself
way to thin.”
Slight pause
“Zachariah is a man of many talents but thinking before he
speaks clearly isn’t one of them. It’s as though the volcanic eruption that is
your momentum, will freeze over and break down into tiny little pieces as you
face me & Konrad. This is me talking to you like a man, Zachariah because
you will not beat me for this championship.”
Even though seeming to be complimentary at first, it quickly
came apparent that the male is simply speaking out of confidence as his facial
expression is both cold and completely emotionless. Yet once he finished his
words the Equinox wrapped in Anarchy began to stroll off. Quickly knowing what
the violent intention was going to happen had, Equinox all happy. The camera
quickly began to follow Equinox until the man finally stopped in front of two
empty yet sealed casket.
Equinox
“Of course this is where you caskets will lie by the end of
the night. Under my feet I will bury you both once the smoke clears and I am
still reigning as Television Champion. It was while on Climax Control last
week, that I looked in the mirror and realized that after I beat Konrad and
then Zachariah attacked us. That I had to make a statement and show the world I
meant business. For the first time, in what felt like an eternity among the
whisper in the wind, I feel like I can accomplish anything.”
Even though talking to the camera, Equinox’s eyes were
fixated upon the wooden boxes, his right hand trailing across the right coffin
in an unorganized manner as he spoke his words. However Equinox’s eyes moved up
to look directly into the lens as he spoke out his final sentence before deciding
to walk off from the casket. Following the male the camera spotted a couple of
metal folding chairs that Equinox walked pass, one of them having a seat on one
of them and next to him, he glanced over to a few chairs away, yet the male
suddenly stopped and snapped himself around. Without saying a word he walked
over to the other chair and picked up the objects off the seconds, which happen
to be frames - one having a picture of Sean Jackson and the other having a
picture of Michael Hardy - and revealed them to the camera for a moment before
placing them both down on the seat before appearing to ponder something.
Equinox:
“Now I think about it
I am quite possibly, literally and in more ways than one the very last person
you would want to face in your rematch for this belt Konrad. Why, why, why,
why, why is that, Mate? Because quite frankly I don’t think you’re ready for me
and I think you still doubt my ability. I won’t stop till the fans see what I
can do in my comfort zone.”
<o:p> </o:p>
At first it sounded like the male might actually be losing
his sanity yet the more he spoke the more confidently calm and arrogantly
relaxed he is. As if to give an image to his words the male used his hands to
make a knitting motion throughout this final sentence before deciding to push
the pictures off the chair and sit down on it, ignoring the sound of shattering
glass as he began to speak up again.
Equinox
“While I have said that history is history, the present is
born from future’s past. I know most have foreseen me to lose and that my
friend is not an option, I will be damned if this belt loses its value in your
hands, Zachariah. It might do some good in Konrad’s hands. But in yours, Zach
it will just decay once more.”
Even though calm and arrogantly at first, Equinox was
definitely sounding quite serious a he mentioned of various things. He began to
think of twitter and wondered if ever for mentioned why it existed.
Equinox
“But make no mistake. I will not hesitate to make myself hurt to hurt you both. Keep in mind to keep this championship, I beat you within an bleeding inch of your damn life. And nothing will be there to save you from all the suffering I, Equinox, plan on making you both endure on GZWA Television.”
Now, instead of a dry chuckle, the male coughed lightly at
the end of his words, the dust from some of the wooden platforms involved in
the renovation being a possible cause for this. However once he finished his
words Equinox walked over to the ring as if staring at pure beauty, before stepping
over to a perfectly set up ladder, as if a construction worker plans to return
on the next day, and leaning his own body slightly against it.
Equinox
“I could end up becoming nothing more than a simple rung on
this ladder if you will. See I am well aware I could lose the championship at
any time. The first step was beating Chance Justice. The next step was supposed
to be winning the Tag Tournament. Small setback, I know. But that’s okay. I can
beat anyone on any given day. But for now I will nothing more than defeating
both of you and retaining my championship. Welcome to Wayward Dreams.”
With that he lets out a demented laugh.
