“Weak? He called me weak?”
**We open with Chamelion back in the Sommers Gym, working out and training for Monday the best he can. He stops as he speaks, and begins to laugh..**
“Ahh, poor wittle Poontang.. just doesn’t understand the obvious, does he? Between him and Duncan, they share half a clue… the other half to be lost to them for ever it seems. First of all, Duncan.. Can’t cut the mustard? Still in a state of denial, aren’t we? Forgot that little moment when you actually let go of the ring apron and began to fall from the ring to your demise? Yeah, just like with your hand, you deny the truth, and hope people forget that.. well, for those saying I gave you the world title.. inadvertently, they’re correct. I had no problem stepping aside, but if you continue to pick at the scab, it’s gonna get infected and bleed… and I’ll be right back there.. eager to prove to you just how devious I can be. And think about it.. right now.. that’s what a lot of people want to see.. “
**Walking to the bench, he sits down, grabs his water and takes a sip…. **
“Poontang, my favorite guy to rip on now.. How the heck are ya? HOW’S THE HANGOVER, DO YOU HAVE ONE, DOES IT HURT?… I really hope so.. then again, you could be acclimated to the drinking… which would be a bummer, I think. But let’s now really look at what you said to me.. the weak comment? I addressed that already, but what else? Ahh yes, the coward comment.. that was almost funny enough.. but I’m confused? A coward? Nah, I’m still in the hunt for the HiC World Title.. if Duncan can indeed hold onto it for a bit.. I’ll step back up to the plate, and we’ll dance one on one.. and you want to know why I caught him? Perhaps it’s this.. perhaps for all we’ve been through.. a mere drop isn’t enough to prove my superiority… I’d much rather pin him dead center of the ring… now that, Poontang, would be closure.”
**With a knowing wink, he caps the bottle, sits it down and stares intently at us**
“So that would be devious, kiddo.. to lure that which you want trapped into a false sense of security… Duncan has every belief he’s on the top of the world because he’s the best.. he’s there, because __I__ put him there… whether he likes that or not, I don’t care…and that isn’t a case of denial or admittance.. it’s what Chamelion DID.. so now, when it’s time.. I’ll come up to him.. look him in the eye, and Rupture the World title off of him.. “
**Turning sideways, he grabs a large white towel and puts it around his neck. He leans back against the lockers, and sighs**
“But as for you, Poontang, my reasons for you are personal.. I’m not here to be a role model for children, but I certainly have issues I can not stand.. drugs? Never have I touched.. and drinking? While I drink too, I certainly don’t endanger other people’s lives in the process. I want you in the ring not because I want to pin you, or beat you.. I’m going to break your fucking legs so you can never get behind the wheel of a card or truck again.. I’m going to take you down, Poontang, for the sake of those who you may someday kill.. this is beyond personal, Poontang… and it has NOTHING to do with wrestling… “
**Taking a moment to collect himself, he allows his Cheshire smile to return.**
“Ahh, Jonathon Cage..a previous partner until Showtime decided to abandon us.. and his great Nemesis plan went up in smoke. The heads at the HiC decided it’s time you got your shot at the Tempest Championship… they either have confidence in you, or you really pissed them off about something. On Monday, when we step in that ring.. I won’t be seeing an old partner, but just another obstacle in my way… and with all that is going down in the HiC right now, I can not afford anyone getting in my way. You really have two choices.. stand aside of find yourself slammed into the canvas and put away for good. I’m in a foul-foul mood, kiddo… and it’s bad enough catching me on a day I want to compete… you’re gonna be dealing with me on a day I want to destroy… I so pity you.. but if you want to go through with this, you damnend well better put up a better effort then you have already.. I’m not a very nice guy.. and I definitely am devious… and royally pissed off… and that’s all there is too it!”
**Jumping to his feet, Chamelion returns to the training room… and we fade to black**
