[The camera fades in to show the inside of an old-fashioned Catholic Church. The walls are an oak wood and insulated in such a way that whatever heat enters the church stays in the church. The windows, which are stain-glass, are located about twenty feet up and highest point of the roof is forty feet up from the center of the main room. Four large marble pillars hold up the church, two are located in the back of the main sanctuary and the other two are located a third of the way into the room on either side near the front pulpit where the priest leads the sermons. There are no electrical lights in the church; rather it is lit solely by candlelight.]

[At the front of the church is about a hundred small, lit candles surrounding a huge portrait of the Virgin Mary and upon giving prayer the person praying lights another candle and joins it with those already lit. The pews on both sides of the main aisle are made of the same oak wood that the walls were constructed of and are completely empty except for the second pew on the right side of the aisle where a single figure can be seen seated quietly, head bowed, perhaps in prayer.]

[The man is dressed in all black, from his boots to his jeans to his muscle shirt to the trench coat that drapes across his body and to his wraparound sunglasses, shielding his eyes from the already dim light of the candles. The man is Sin Wrestling�s own Slash Tannon and as he lifts his head from the solemn prayer position the camera zooms in on his face where a sick smirk lay.]

Tannon (speaking softly, as if whispering to a person next to him, despite nobody else there): It has come down to me and you. What is it this time? You saw me beginning to peak as a wrestler and you just could not have that? You felt the need to what�humble me? You act all high and mighty because of what�seven days of work? Fuck that, I have been going non-stop for over three years to get to where I was two months ago�three years�and I didn�t to take a fucking Sabbath off.

[His hand reaches forward and he slowly picks up a bible that was lying on the pew in front of him.]

Tannon (smacking the book across his open left palm): I was getting to the point where books could have been written about my success. They would have been a hell of a lot more intriguing then the shit that is spouted about you in waste of paper.

[He opens the bible to the first page and begins to read.]

Tannon (slowly): In the beginning�

[He rips the page out of the book and tosses it aside, flipping through the book and finding another story.]

Tannon (reading): Forty days and forty nights�

[He rips that page out as well and tosses it to the ground.]

Tannon (flipping a bit further): Some sort of a burning bush�crap.

[He rips the pages out and throws them into the air like confetti before whipping the book against the wall behind the camera and smirking as the thud sound echoes through the church upon its impact.]

Tannon (shaking his head and looking up at the wooden cross off in the corner of the church): You are supposed to be some sort of symbol of goodness and purity but instead you are a vengeful and spiteful bitch who HATES it when he doesn�t get what he wants. It seems like you and I have been going back and forth throughout the generations�the body may be different but it is me and you since the beginning of time. Is it all about the apple? Is that what pissed you off to begin with? You talk about how you gave people free will�fuck you�you gave people shit. You gave them rules�it was someone like me who gave them the free will. You told them �don�t do this�, �don�t do that�, �don�t eat from there� and as long as they played by your rules then you were happy.

[Tannon shakes his head and stands up, making his way to the front of the pulpit where he stands center stage and looks out at the empty pews, his eyes looking up at the rafters of the church.]

Tannon (almost screaming out at the empty church): What kind of person does that! You give a person rules! You set up boundaries to keep them down! You fuck with them and make it so you are so much higher up! Why? Because you were first�fuck that! You give them the animals and tell them to stay away from the snake. You give them the food and tell them not to eat the apples. You give them the tree but they can�t eat from it. You set up the rules and then you call it free will. It was a person like me�a person who saw through your shit and into the truth who gave these puppets of yours the free will to stand on their own.

[He turns around angrily, facing the cross and spreading his arms out wide in a mocking manner.]

Tannon: He gave them the chance to eat from the tree and he gave them the ability to see what you see and you couldn�t handle it could you? You couldn�t handle these peasants�these creations of yours getting closer to that level that you had stood alone for oh so long. You banished them from the garden and you made the only man who could go against you be banished to crawl on his belly for eternity. Was that why you fucked with me! Did you see me getting to that next level and see me as this generation�s snake�the man of this era who could see through your shit! Well guess what bitch! You haven�t banished me! I�m fucking here and I ain�t going anywhere! I�m not crawling on my hands and knees and I am not on my belly. I am standing tall! For almost a year I played by your rules and you saw what I could accomplish when I went against you�I did it for two years. Why fuck with a good thing? Why push me back to the edge?

[Tannon snaps forward and with one hard kick sends his foot careening into the center of the cross, snapping it in half as the sound of cracking wood roars through the empty air.]

Tannon (turning again and screaming out at the world): Well I am back�fuck being a nice guy. I am what you fucking made me! I am an uncaring, selfish, egotistical, son of a bitch who can back it up word for word and move for move. I am the Iceman! Yeah�you heard me, I am the Iceman and you brought me back. I am driving you the hell out of Sin! It�s my world there, it�s my place, it�s where I rule and you ain�t got shit on me! This is my world�my time�you and your bitch ain�t welcome!

[Tannon turns back to the candles, lit out of prayer and with one guttural scream he lifts the table up and sends it crashing, candles and all, into the large portrait of the Virgin Mary. The paper it was painted on never stood a chance as it immediately caught fire and the candles began to ignite over the entire portrait, the pulpit, the wooden pews and the already-fallen cross. Tannon strides down the aisle of the church, as it began to get engulfed in flames, making his way to the doors leading out of the church and stopping, looking back at the burning church.]

Tannon (screaming out in a mix of anger and hate): You won the battle God...Lord�whatever! You won the battle but I�I am gonna win the war!

[Tannon turns and pushes the doors open, walking through them and letting them close behind them as the camera fades to back with a view of the Virgin Mary�s face slowly being engulfed in flames.]
