Back to the old reviews again. Well, last week was a very bad week for The Butcher due to the fact that he lost the Pink Vibrator match to Frostie. The Butcher could careless, because what comes around goes around. Besides, Frostie needed help from that bastard referee Tyler Hendrix to win. That was a total screw ball idea by Hendrix seeing as this week he has to face The Butcher in a 4 Corners Table Match. This has never been done before in the wrestling world and should make WAR a very eventful evening. But on the other side of the spectrum The Butcher has been dealing with demons outside of the ring. Cody and Tomorrow Man have returned to San Francisco after aiding in killing Mr. Warlock and the GrimReaper; but him murdering two of his ex-friends has changed Nikki. She doesn�t speak to The Butcher or even look at him anymore and it�s been getting worst each week. Now that it�s Thanksgiving Day, you�d think things would turn around just for the one day�
-|- The sunlight breaks threw the window on this brisk autumn day, waking The Butcher from his peaceful slumber of strange dreams. His dreams have become less violent since the day he killed Mr. Warlock and the GrimReaper, and it appears their deaths have ended his dreadful nightmares of the past. The Butcher sits up and rolls out of his bed in his Harlem home with an eerie feeling. Something isn�t right to him and he always seems to trust his senses in times like this. He exits his room and walks down the hall where Nikki has been sleeping since they arrived back home. He quietly opens the door slowly so he doesn�t wake her; but as he opens the door he finds the bed sheets and blanket disheveled and Nikki is no where to be found. He remains calm, though, and makes his way downstairs, thinking that she woke up before him. As he reaches the base of the stairs he calls out her name. -|-
The Butcher: Nikki?
-|- No response. Something is definitely wrong. Before thoughts of her being kidnapped again enters his mind he looks out the front door to see if her car is parked outside. It isn�t. He�s in deep thought on where she could be when he gets smacked in the head by the newspaper; compliments of the newspaper boy. He picks up the paper and walks back inside towards the kitchen to find some breakfast. -|-
The Butcher: Maybe she went back to work.
-|- The thought struck him right in the face when the newspaper hit him. Nikki was a freelance photographer for an unpopular newspaper in New York City before she followed The Butcher to Japan. Since the tour was so long and then the European Tour was soon after, she had to quit her job to follow her love around the globe. The Butcher guesses that she went to get her job back early this morning since gfwa OMEGA is going to be in North America for awhile. Any fears of where she might be exits his minds as he is convinced that this is what she is really doing. He reaches into a cupboard and pulls out a box of Morning Mix cereal and sets it on the table. He then walks across the room to grab his Mickey Mouse bowl that he eats from every morning out of its cupboard. Taped to the cupboard door is a piece of paper. The Butcher snatches it and looks at it. It�s a letter. -|-
Jimmy -
Words cannot describe what you mean to me. I love you with all my heart and I have since the day I met you. My obsession for you grew each day to the point where I couldn�t live a day without seeing your face in the morning lying next to me. That is why I gave up my career to follow you around the world. I hated love and didn�t want to be part of it but I couldn�t resist you or your love for me. It got to the point where I waited for you to ask me to marry you. That day never came and I doubt it ever will.
What we went through the past few months has really changed my life and my feelings towards you. When I met you I knew you were a brutal man inside the ring but a kind, gentle man outside of it. You promised me that your violence was contained inside the wrestling ring but that was a promise that you could not keep.
When I was kidnapped, I never doubted that you would save me. But the day when you arrived at the complex where I was held, my feelings towards you changed. I thought you would dash in and be my knight in shinning armor by outsmarting the enemy. You did dash in but you brought a greater evil than the evil that I was held captive by. You killed people and I doubt you killed them for me. You became the monster that you hated the most.
Now I can�t stand to look at you or speak to you anymore. I am confused at who you really are. I do not feel love for you anymore�I don�t feel much at all these days. That is why I have decided that I must go away for now. I�m not going to tell you where I am going either because I don�t want you to try to convince me to come back. I need to be alone right now and think things out. When I figure out what I�m going to do I will call you; but for now I must live without you. If you truly love me, don�t try to look for me.
Forever yours,
Nikki
-|- The Butcher crinkles the letter in anger. What was he supposed to do? Just walk in and bargain for Nikki? Walk into the trap, well aware that he wouldn�t survive? He had to kill Mr. Warlock and the GrimReaper. If he didn�t kill them, they would return farther down the path of their lives and attempt to kill them again. -|-
The Butcher: I did the right thing and she will figure that out for herself. I just wish I knew where she was though. Mr. Warlock�s reach around the world is immense and his death does not guarantee our safety. Somewhere out there someone is going to enact revenge for him. But who?
-|- The Butcher ponders for a moment at who Mr. Warlock might have paid off to murder him. Mr. Warlock always has a back-up plan just incase, and he�s sure that plan is in effect now that Mr. Warlock is no more. The Butcher sits down at the kitchen table, worrying about Nikki and hoping that he can find her before any harm comes to her. -|-
The Butcher: If I know Mr. Warlock correctly, his assassin could be someone close to me or a wrestler that I would never suspect.
-|- The Butcher then remembers his match this week at WAR against Tyler Hendrix. A 4 Corners Table Match to be exact. The same man that screwed him in his match against Frostie for the Pink Vibrator. It all makes sense to The Butcher now. -|-
The Butcher: If there was one man that Mr. Warlock would pay-off to be a hit man, it would Tyler Hendrix. Tyler is all about money and would do anything for it�even kill. But no, I doubt Hendrix has anything to do with this. He lacks the brains to even pull something like that off. He�s an excellent wrestler and a great business man as well from what I�ve heard but he isn�t an assassin. I saw his little speech thingy earlier and I saw his enthusiasm and eagerness to be back in the ring. Why would he ruin all of that to kill a guy he doesn�t hate? But I hate him because of what he is. I respect him as a fellow wrestler but I despise his motivation in life. He helped Frostie defeat me so he could have security in his come back and that is why I must be careful this Sunday. Frostie could be planning to help his new �friend� beat me like Hendrix aided him. Those two make me sick! No honor for the fight. But that�s all right, though, because Hendrix will get his Sunday and Frostie will get his later on.
-|- The Butcher laughs a little at the 4 Corners Table Match stipulation. -|-
The Butcher: This match should turn out brutal like Hendrix said and he should be fearing for his life. The �Goods� will be ready for him come Sunday and I�ll make him regret getting in my way.
-|- The Butcher unwrinkles Nikki�s letter and reads it again. All though his heart is broken, he is confident things will work out in the end. -|-
