The Revenge Countdown

Opening to a dark room, only lit by a small light in the corner, the camera really gets to know this area. The room is empty and old furniture is seen lying around, as if this room has been abandoned for many years.

Only the sound of thumping can be heard, as if something is being beaten repeatedly. We find out that out for ourselves when the camera is looking at a figure, all alone, and punching and kicking away at a punchbag, hanging on by a thread, as it seems the rust has affected it greatly. Suddenly, the bag itself gives away as it falls to the floor. The figure begins laughing and then realizes the camera is there, and grins as he realizes there is someone else in the room. The man, judging by the deepness of his laughter, then comes into the light and the camera see' the figure clearly, who is Nicky Mills.

Nicky Mills: Cole Matthews. Another sheep for TnT Wrestling, I see...

Cole Matthews comes into the camera view, as he seems afraid to come any closer, and his legs begin shaking. Nicky's eyes is diverted to this and his laughter becomes more deep bellied and louder, a look in his eyes showing nothing but rage and anger however, as he takes a step towards the TnT reporter.

Something wrong? Is it the atmosphere that we are in? This is where I get away from the spotlight, to focus my revenge. To focus on my opponent this Sunday.

Matthews then manages to speak up, his voice clearly showing his nervousness.

Cole Matthews: Your forgetting Ten Minute Major. He's in the match too.

Suddenly, the punching bag goes flying towards Matthews, and he barely misses it. Nicky walks towards Cole and looks at the cameraman, who also was frightened by that sudden movement.

Ten Minute Major....what a silly little man. Thinking he can fool everyone with his 'funny man' routine, so that everyone can love him. Really, it's a merchandise and character selling, so people can actually 'feel' a connection with that Canadian loser. You know what surprises me? That two men in TnT Wrestling are from Canada, a beautiful country with lots of reasons to go there, but that the people who represent the country in TnT are over-sized egotists. I find it surprising Cole, that he believes he will win. He had better get a reality check, and fast. It's not about winning for him, it's about surviving.

How do you mean that?

Well, I'll show you, Cole. Take that camera here so they can watch it. So the entire world can WITNESS the calm before the storm.

He walks into the darkness and a moment later, comes out with a large metal object, and the light catches it as it forms a shadow. It is a shovel, and Nicky walking towards Matthews and swings the shovel directly at him, as Matthews barely manages to get out of the way. He makes a sobbing noise as he falls onto the ground, and Nicky lifts the shovel and brings it down, but stops as Nicky begins to laugh. It seems Cole has urinated himself, a wet stain now formed onto the front of his trousers.

You really think I would waste this shovel on you, Cole? This is reserved for one man, who is going to wish he was never born. The other will be a man who will taste his own blood, as I smash his fucking skull little by little with this shovel, until his face resembles nothing more but blood soaked meat, and this shovel caked with his blood. As I bring it down onto him, as the blood thirsty audience look in horror, as even that is going too far, and turn away as they watch a man, one of their own, be permanently scarred for life. His words mean nothing, and you know the old saying, actions speak louder than words. Isn't that right, Major?

I gave you the chance to walk away from this one, to know when to quit. But obviously, your pea sized brain doesn't seem to know the word. Is it a macho thing Major, to never give up and to take every beating? Why cant you show some intelligence for a change and do as I say. I'm not asking you, I'm BEGGING you to walk away. Please. Don't make me hurt you, Major. Be a loving husband to that wife of yours, Alison, and be a good father to your child. Have those moments that every husband and father should have, so when you look back on your life, you can say "I was a good man. I brought my children up, and I loved my wife more than anything." But what do you do? You risk it ALL, everything, for a win. Another number on your record. Victoria was one years old, I hear. Congratulations. But please James, for my sake, call up Jonny Fly and tell him "I'm afraid I cannot show tonight. I dont want my career to be risked if I step into that ring with those two guys."

Because if I see you in that ring, the consequences will be enormous. I have one thing on my mind, and that is revenge. Nothing will become a roadblock from my goal, and you happen to be that very block. You see James, I'm a ticking time bomb, and it's just exploded. When a man is pushed to the limit, his very limits, he's unpredictable, he isn't thinking straight. He could do anything to anyone, and not feel sorry for it then, but will when he realizes what he has done. But as you can see, I don't care anymore. If that blood rests on my hands, there will be no emotion or mercy. I will not spare you. And this isnt a game. THIS IS NOT A GAME JAMES! I dont see myself laughing. Here, I'll make it very clear. If you even attempt to show up, your brains will be scrambled eggs by the end of that match. You'll see nothing but a pool of your own blood forming around you as I continue to slam that shovel down until you look like a smashed snail's shell.

As for Billy Dee, it starts at Mayhem with you. I will not rest until all of your hoods are revealed and their humiliation etched forever. Now get out of here Matthews, before I smash your face in with this shovel and let the audience figure it out.

Matthews begins to back away and the camera eventually moves away as the scene slowly fades to black.
