We open up inside a sports bar, somewhere near
the
Bradley
Center
on the night
before Havok. A quick look around
and we find Chamelion sitting alone in one of the booths to the side.
Moving in, we find him relaxed, leaning against the wall with a foot up
on the bench, wearing a
Green Bay
Packers
jersey, and on the table is a tall glass of beer and a plate of cheese sticks.
Lazily picking one of the sticks up, he bites into it and chews slowly,
while we settle in across from him.
“Mmm,
not bad. Ya know,
Wisconsin
has it’s share of famous things.
You have beer,
Milwaukee
beer to be exact…and of course cheese… and then
who can forget the Packers! A
storied state in many ways. Now,
I’m not really a beer drinker, cause it doesn’t do my body good to poison
it with the shit when I need to spend all my time training and preparing for
my matches. However, beer is in
it’s own way; Toxic, and I figured it was a perfect analogy to what I have
to talk about.”

He pulls the mug closer and spins it around slowly on the table.
“For
instance, Beer looks good. A tall
frosty mug, brimming at the top with a strong head, overflowing just enough to
drip down the side of the glass, pooling around the base.
Inside, bubbles rise up to the top, giving it a carbonated look. Toxic
is kind of like beer. Ya know,
full of himself, overflowing with an ego of believing he’s the new greatness
in the BWF. Legend beat me to the
punch, but he’s right; can you really believe that you’re a worthy
champion, when you took the belt from a man who obviously wasn’t completely
in the game that night?”
