The camera fades in to show the plush main office of Slash Tannon within the Calgary Headquarters of TANNON Inc., with Tannon standing calmly next to the large window behind his oak desk and dressed in a black Armani suit. His personal assistant, Jennifer Winters is dressed in a beautiful black skirt and white top and seated with her legs crossed in the leather seat behind Tannon's desk. Jennifer has a notepad in front of her and is jotting down notes as Tannon speaks.

Tannon (staring out the window but speaking to Jennifer): Ok, take down the following message Jennifer. "To all stockholders of TI Inc. and its subsidiaries. It has been decided by Slash Tannon, the founder, President and CEO of TI Inc., that all assets and holdings of TI Inc. be reworked and resigned under the new base name of TANNON Inc. as of 6:25 pm on April 15, 2005. The decision to do this is solely based on a decision made by Mr. Tannon, the majority owner of TANNON Inc., with 50.1% of the voting rights." Did you get all that?

Jennifer (rereading the announcement to in her head): Yes, I got it all.

KNOCK

KNOCK

Tannon (acknowledging the person on the other side of the door): Come in.

The door opens and a young woman steps in. She is about 5'5"� and wearing a pair of tight-fitting blue jeans, a white tank top and a jean jacket that is open in the front. Her feet are covered by a pair of tan sandals and her long brown hair is tied back in a ponytail and her wrists are covered in gold bracelets. Tannon turned around from the window and a smile crosses his face as he sees the woman who just entered his office. The girl's smile was even broader than Tannon's as she rushed across the office and embraced him. Her lips brushed Tannon's cheek as she gave him a small kiss. They hugged for a moment before releasing their embrace.

Tannon (looking at the woman): Wow, Ashleigh its great to see you. How long has it been?

Ashleigh (smiling): Christmas 2003

Tannon (his face becoming somber): Yeah…I am sorry, it’s just work and everything has been hell.

Ashleigh (smiling and patting her hand against Tannon's face): It's ok, I am here now and we can hang out and catch up if you want.

Tannon (nodding): I'd like that.

Jennifer (standing up and coughing to acknowledge her existence): Eh hem!

Tannon turned to Jennifer, who was visibly angry at the sight of Tannon hugging or being kissed by another woman.

Tannon (his arm around the other woman's waist): Oh sorry, Ashleigh, I would like to introduce you to my personal assistant Jennifer Winter. Jennifer, this is my kid sister Ashleigh Tannon.

Jennifer (her face becoming soft and friendly again): Your sister?

Tannon (nodding and releasing his hold of Ashleigh to allow the two women to shake hands): Yeah, she's a senior at the University of Alberta and she is looking to major in business.

Jennifer: Oh that sounds cool! Any business in particular that interests you?

Ashleigh (shrugging): Actually that's why I am here. I was hoping that maybe my big brother Slash would be willing to give his little sister a little job. Would that be too much to ask?

Tannon (sitting down at his desk, his face completely somber and serious): Sure, I'll just need you to go down to the personnel department and fill out a job application and I will go over it and your recommendations sometime next week.

Ashleigh looked at her brother in complete shock at his answer.

Ashleigh (visibly saddened): Wha..wha...what? I..I'm your sister Slash, how...how could you do this...this to me?

Tannon (looking up and allowing a smirk to cross his face): Oh relax; of course you have a job here. You are my sister and I will never turn my back on you. I have an opening for the VP of Human Resources, would that be good for you? It comes with full benefits and a six-figure starting salary.

Ashleigh (her face brightening due to her smile): That is more than enough for me. Thank you so much.

Tannon (shaking his head and waving off her comment): I'm your brother...it's my job. Jennifer, please take the memo we worked out down to Calvin and tell him I want it sent out immediately. I want a moment alone with my sister.

Jennifer nods and walks over to the desk, picking up her pad and then giving Tannon a quick kiss on the lips before turning and heading out of the room.

Jennifer (as she passes Ashleigh): It was nice to meet you Ashleigh.

Ashleigh (trying to hide her smile): You too Jennifer.

Jennifer walks out of the room and as the door shuts Ashleigh turns back to Slash and bursts out laughing.

Tannon (questioningly): What are you laughing at?

Ashleigh (shaking her head and jerking her head back to acknowledge the departed Jennifer): She really likes you.

Tannon: Huh? Jennifer? Mo, she's just friendly.

Ashleigh (nodding): Uh huh, sure.

Tannon just shakes his head and laughs, adjusting his suit coat as he does so.

Ashleigh: You seem to have done well for yourself Slash.

Tannon (nodding): I have had a few years of good luck.

Ashleigh (leaning forward): So tell me, big brother, are you still wrestling or have you completely crossed the line into the business world?

Tannon (feigning shock and anger before smiling broadly): I would never do that! Actually I am doing both now; wrestling and running this company.

Ashleigh: Really? Last time we had any conversation was that 10-minute phone call last Christmas. Are you still competing in that Reckless Wrestling Federation?

Tannon (shaking his head): Nope, I resigned from Reckless Wrestling in February and wrestled for this independent federation out of California called The Zone during the latter parts of February and a bit of March. It went under and I was signed by Buzz FC.

Ashleigh: How is it going so far?

Tannon (laughing): It's alright, dispite my mediocre start. I was finally able to win my first bout last week. But I never really considered my 3 loses anything big, and just watch in a few months I'll be the icon of Buzz FC.

Ashleigh (shaking her head): You were always like that Slash. Never wanted to feign up to your loses, right big brother? Remember when I beat you at that hockey game?

Tannon (nodding his head): I only speak the truth Ashleigh. I was at an unfair disadvantage all three times, one on one I could beat anyone of them with one arm tied behind my back. and as that hockey game goes, well....I let you win.

Ashleigh: I doubt that. Do you have anything going this week?

Tannon (smirking): Yeah, some guy by the name of Scotty Havok, just another upstart looking to use me as a stepping stone to get to the next level, it's just a shame that that isn't going to happen. The guy is obviously feeling down on himself. I know I own a big company, but everyone that works here is like family to me. Havok hasn't got a damn clue as to who he is dealing with. He should go ask Boomer, Revelation and Johnny Dangerous just who the F I am!

Ashleigh (somberly): I'm sure the guy is still there so he can make a living, go easy on him.

Tannon (feigning confusion): Why whatever do you mean sister?

Ashleigh (shaking her head): You are my brother and I know how your sick mind works. You will almsot do anything to get to that next level, just be careful.

Tannon (a smile crossing his face): You know...you are getting way too smart. Why don’t you head down to the 5th floor, that is the Human Resources department, and tell them who you are. If I know Jennifer well enough she has already informed them of your hiring and they have prepared the necessary paperwork. I will stop on down there in an hour or so, I just have a few papers to finish.

Ashleigh (standing up and walking over to her brother before leaning over and kissing him on the cheek): Always changing the subject. I guess it is comforting to know that some things never change.

Tannon smirks as Ashleigh smiles and walks out of the room.

Camera fades out.

20 Minutes later...

The camera fades back in to show Slash Tannon leaning over his desk working on papers.

CRASH!

Tannon's head snaps up at the sound of his office door breaking down. He gets up and steps around his desk, getting two third's of the way across the room before two men, both armed with handguns, step in and surround him from three feet away, their weapons drawn at the face of Tannon.

Tannon stares both of them down as a third man steps into the room and Tannon's eyes widen slightly as he recognizes Michael Rivera.

Sonny Rivera

The mob boss and head boss of the Rivera Crime Family.

The head of the mob, his two henchmen and their two guns all staring down Slash Tannon as the camera fades to black.

Are You Ready? For TOTAL IMPACT!!!
