An old teacher and mentor
--- Stonewall's Rented Car --- [Alastor Stonewall is driving around in his rented car. He has a lot on his mind, and he is just driving around Canada. Actually, he has been driving for hours now. Then, he pulls into a parking lot and pulls out a pen and piece of paper.] Stonewall: (To himself) God, I hope this works. It's been tearing me up inside that Allison has been ignoring me ever since that happening last Thursday. I'll make sure this gets sent to her, one way or another. [Stonewall begins writing. Here is what he wrote.] Dear Allison, I am writing this letter to you because you have been ignoring me for the past few days. Back on Thursday, you never gave me a chance to explain myself. I am very sure that we can work this problem out. First off, I have no idea what is on that piece of paper. Where did you get that? Did someone give it to you, or did you find it? Secondly, why do you think I cheated on you? I've only been doing a few things ever since I met you. Sleeping (in the same room as you), exercising and lifting weights (we were always together when we did that), wrestling at a live event (You've been to both), or cutting promo's (You've seen them all). Quite simply, I wouldn't even have the chance to cheat on you, because there is nowhere else I really could have been. So, how about this. Come to Thursday Night Explosion. Enclosed with this letter is tickets and a backstage pass. After my match, come backstage and goto my locker room. Bring that piece of paper as well, since I would like to have a look at it. Then hopefully, we can work things out. The show is being held in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The name of the arena escapes me at the moment, but I'm sure that if you just ask around, you'll easily find it. Hope to see you there. Jason Gallant [Satisfied, Stonewall puts the letter in an envelope and seals it. He addresses the envelope and puts a stamp on it. He drives to a post office and deposits it in a mailbox.] Stonewall: (To himself) Well, at least I can rest assured that she'll get that message. I really hope she reads it, and doesn't toss it in the trash. But, I know she'll read over it, she can only hold a grudge so long, it's just not like her to hate someone for all that long. [Stonewall continues to drive along until he remembers something.] Stonewall: (To himself) That's right, I'm near where I went to school for wrestling! I think I'll pay them a surprise visit... [Alastor Stonewall pulls off of the Canadian highway and onto an exit. He continues to drive until he gets to the place he was looking for. He gets out of his car, and looks at the place, and smiles broadly.] --- Stu Hart's Dungeon --- Stonewall: (To himself) Ah, Stu Hart's Dungeon. The place where I learned how to wrestle and was made into a real man. For two long years I studied here, learning the technical wrestling style, and just how to take pain. I wonder if Stu will remember me, it's been nine years since I left. Though, I was one of his top students, he'll just need a small reminder. [Stonewall walks up to the door. He walks into the school, and takes a look around. The classes are in full session, as there are various men in wrestling rings taking bumps, attempting maneuvers, and doing brutal exercises. Stu Hart isn't seen, and Stonewall walks up to one of the instructors. He says that Stu is in his office at the moment. Stonewall thanks the man and goes over to the office. He takes a deep breath, and knocks on the door. Stonewall hears some footsteps, and a man answers the door.] Stu Hart: Hello. Who might you be? Come to take some lessons? Stonewall: No actually, I dropped by for a visit. You see, you have already trained me, about nine years ago. Do you remember me? Stu Hart: Well, you look familiar, but that green hair and green beard doesn't ring a bell... Stonewall: Remember a man named Jason Gallant? Stu Hart: Of course I do! Wait... you mean your Jason Gallant? Hey! How have you been, come in my office, let's talk for a while, the instructors are doing fine by themselves for now. [Stonewall walks into room and Stu closes the door. Stonewall sits down on a folding chair, and Stu brings out another chair. He sits across from Stonewall.] Stu Hart: So, how has your wrestling career been going? Last I heard you were working in the Virginia Wrestling Federation, that indy federation. You still working there? Stonewall: Actually, I left there. I've been working the mainstream circuit for about eight months now... Stu Hart: You've come a long way, not to say that you weren't great to begin with. I mean, you graduated from here with top honors, so to speak. You trained some with Bret and Owen (RIP), and were able to keep up with them. So, what's your gimmick like? Stonewall: Well, the one I'm using now is under the name Alastor Stonewall. Stu Hart: That's an original name. Let me guess, your a heel, right? Stonewall: I was when I started as Alastor Stonewall, but he's calmed down a bit. The federation I'm currently in is called the WeWA, the World eWrestling Alliance. They recently changed their name from BACW, Bad Ass Championship Wrestling. It's been around for about a year and a half now. I joined this particular federation five weeks ago, to this very day. Stu Hart: Do you have a match this week? Stonewall: Actually, I do. It's against a man named Eddy Outlaw. Stu Hart: Obviously wasn't trained here... Stonewall: *Laughs* Yeah, obviously not. Stu Hart: So, what do you plan to do to him? Stonewall: Actually, let me explain this guy a little first. Alright, he's been in this federation for a while, and hasn't lost all that often. However, he's lost a couple times in the past month, so he's not in the greatest mood. However, he actually is trying to make me look bad. Eddy needs to seriously get a grip on reality. You see, he thinks that by mocking my gimmick name, he'll mess with my head, or something along those lines. But, it's him who is mistaken. He can't drop the fact that I've been having some personal problems as of late, and thinks that it will effect my performance. You and I both know better. Stu Hart: Yeah, you seem to become a completely different person when you step into that ring. Although we worked you hard, there were times it sometimes took a couple people to hold you down, you were a real loose cannon back when we were training you. Stonewall: In many ways, I still am. However, unfortunately for Outlaw, he's going to feel the full force of my short temper. No one, and I mean no one badmouths my girlfriend and gets into my personal life without paying the price. And that is a very hefty price. I've beaten some big names, and they all can tell you it isn't easy to take me once my emotions of rage and anger take over. I become the paragon of invincibility, it isn't any type of gimmick or image, it's real. Once I get into that one mindset, that unbeatable gameplan, Eddy mind as well contact the morgue, because I will leave him for dead. Stu Hart: *Laughs* Your the same as always Jason. I would like to see some of your work sometime. How about mailing me a tape of your work when you get the time? Stonewall: Sure thing Stu. Give me a business card or something, so I don't lose your address. [Stu Hart hands Stonewall a card.] Stu Hart: There ya go. Now Jason, before you go, how about you show our current top student a thing or two? That'll be interesting. Remember when we did that to you? Stonewall: Oh yeah, boy was that a wakeup call. Anyway, this sounds interesting. Let's go try it. [Stonewall and Stu Hart leave the office, and appear in front of the rest of the class. Stu Hart calls for all the students and instructors to listen.] Stu Hart: Alright everyone, listen up! This man, Alastor Stonewall, is one of my best trained atheletes from our school! [The student's clap.] Stu Hart: Now, he has agreed to take on our best student in an impromptu matchup! Warren, get up here, your going to wrestle Alastor! [Warren kind of points to himself with a "Who, me?" look. Stu nods his head, and Warren and Stonewall get into the wrestling ring. They shake hands.] Stonewall: Before we start, I'm going to let you know that I will not go easy on you, so try your hardest and don't hold back! Warren: Alright. [Stu Hart gets in the ring to act as referee. He calls for a bell, and they start. Stonewall begins to savagely attack Warren, pummeling him with a flurry of punches. Stonewall whips Warren into the ropes, and gives him a clothesline. Warren immediately stands up and gives Stonewall a chest chop. Stonewall just grins in mockery. However, Warren gives Stonewall a punch, and slingshots himself off the ropes, and gives Stonewall a version of The Spear. Warren stands up, and celebrates. However, Stonewall stands up, and gives Warren an inverted DDT. Stonewall delivers a couple of drop elbows and then picks Warren up by the hair. Stonewall whips Warren into the ropes, and gives him a Spinebuster! Then he picks him up, and delivers an AVALANCHE. Warren is stunned and hurt. Stonewall pins him for the 1... 2... 3.] Stu Hart: Your winner, Alastor Stonewall! [Warren, still dazed from the match, sits up. Stonewall extends a hand, and helps Warren up.] Stonewall: Warren, don't be mad you lost. The same thing happened to me when I was being trained. Just stick with it, and maybe someday you'll be the one returning and kicking ass! [Warren smiles weakly, and is helped out of the ring. While the instructors tend to him, Stonewall makes a couple annoucments.] Stonewall: See what happened? I plan on doing MUCH more when I take on a man named Eddy Outlaw this Thursday. Actually, I did take it easy on Warren, I ended the match quickly. However, against Outlaw, I'm going to make him suffer, and feel a pain he has not felt for quite some time. What I did to Warren, I will do ten fold to Eddy Outlaw. That man mind as well skip town when I get into that ring. And for any of you who want to watch it, tune into the WeWA at 10:00 PM to watch my match. It's going to be a big night for me, and as an accomplished wrestler of Stu Hart's Dungeon, make sure you watch, you might just learn a few things. [Stonewall gets out of the ring to say goodbye to Stu Hart.] Stonewall: Well Stu, I must be going. I have to goto a gym and lift some weights. I'll see you around, and if you get the chance, check out my match against Eddy Outlaw, I assure you that you'll not be dissapointed. Stu Hart: Thanks for dropping by. I'll see if I can record the action, since I'll probably have more work to do. But, come by any time, you're always welcome here. Stonewall: Thanks, see ya. Stu Hart: Goodbye Jason. [Stonewall leaves the school that trained him well, and gets into a car to goto a gym and prepare for Thursday night.]
