Scene opens in a venue not often seen in a Sommers promo..
we’re in a museum, and Raizzor and Chamelion are standing in front of a
painting of a wolf. The two are silent
for a moment, until Chamelion speaks up.
“I asked
Raizzor grunts softly, his only reply. Chamelion continues.
“It’s against Thunderwolf.”
Turning his head, Raizzor raises an eyebrow.
“Really?”
Nodding, Chamelion opens the pamphlet in his hands, a guide
to the museum.
“Yeah, go figure. I wanted to be
tested before Rise of Tyranny, I’m going to get that test… with a pass or fail
grade.”
Raizzor returns to staring at the painting.
“Ol’ Dustin has been bragging about
beating me before.. which is hilarious since he never has!”
Raizzor shrugs.
“Ego, he has it. He will make up stories to look bigger and
badder… no big deal.”
“I Know…”
Chamelion smirks….
“..He’s never been scary to me..
Cry of the Wolf is a good move, but will it compare to The Mimic?”
Raizzor snorts..
“Isn’t the Mimic the same as..”
“SHhhhhh!!’
Chamelion looks around, making sure no one can hear
him. He then sees the camera man and
shrugs, ok, he can hear if he wants…but;
“Don’t go telling people just yet
what it is… not everyone paid attention to my attack on Payton Strader!”
“You certain?”
“No, but I’m not going to announce
it.. anyway, he’s got a golden chance here.. ok, not golden.. title’s not on
the line.. but still.. he can make up for all those lies next week.”
“You make it sound like you want him
too.”
Laughing, Chamelion pats his brother on the back.
“Are you kidding? I’m going to blow his ass out of the
water. He’ll play the same game as
before… he’ll talk about clichés, being old, not being as good as such and
such… and do it in twice the time anyone else can. Weed out the soap opera shit, and he usually
says about as much as a two year old’s vocabulary.”
“Don’t underestimate him. He and Demise did defeat Sirus and I.”
“Dustin beat Sirus! You had Demise beaten down, and he knows it..
just like I did… and you know that match was set up to go down that way and no
other… politics, remember?”
“Perhaps…”
“you are just SO talkative these
days… point is.. next week it’s non title.. it’s battle of the best…and while
Thunderwolf has some steam to run on with his tag title win, I’ve got the steam
of beating one of the legends in the ring… in my case, however, beating
Thunderwolf would be a feather in my cap like no other, and a shear bonus
leading to Rise of Tyranny.”
“Can’t deny your confidence.”
Smiling, Chamelion reviews one of the pages in the pamphlet.
“No, cant do that. Let T-wolf have his fun.. work his magic and
see if he can’t pull a rabbit out of a hat… hell, I’d make it for the title,
but Dalton frowns on that sort of thing, and with daddy and puppy fighting,
he’d not let it happen in any sense of the word… but in spirit, T-wolf can
believe what he wants.. I, on the other hand, just need to prove I can hold my
own against some of the more wild opponents in the HiC.. even ones with rabies!!”
Raizzor shrugs.
“Just keep your focus little
brother… or he’ll get the best of you.”
Chamelion glares…
“Oh yeah, you’re the one that got
beat by him and Demise last week…”
Raizzor turns, equally glaring.
“And you’re the one that joined VDP and
decided to go all nutso!!”
“You’re the one who chose Sirus
over me cause he had the tag title”
“You’re the one who chose turning
against me for the World title!”
“You’re the one who …..”
As this goes on, the camera man looks up at the clock,
which reads 3:25pm…it stays there as the minute hand begins to move faster as
it circles the clock, and finally slows on 5:10pm… it pans back down to Raizzor
and Chamelion still in the same spot.
“You’re the one who puts peanut
butter on your toast, not regular butter!!!”
“you’re the one who has to have
Jalapeño and anchovies pizzas all the time!!!”
Both stop, as they hear the camera man clear his
throat. Cameramen make sounds? They
turn, and realize the time.
“Oh, sorry, were you expecting more
from us on next week?”
The camera nods, eager to move on.
“Umm, we were done… we just got
into an argument over things and got carried away…”
Unbelieving, the cameraman faints, falling backwards and
landing flat on his back.. the camera pointing straight up…Chamelion and
Raizzor peer over him, their visages in the center of the scene, with the
ceiling above them…Raizzor sighs.
”Look what you did.”
“ME? You’re the one that forgot to
tell him we’re done.”
“Oh yeah? You’re the one who started
this!!”
“Yeah? You’re the one who….”
Oh god, not again.
End.
