Chapter I:
Security and History
===========================================================================================
The scene opens in the downtown area of Orlando, Florida. A young boy is seen sitting on the street just outside the Impact! Sports bar as he drinks some soda. The doors are open and the TVs can be seen. TNA's 2030 edition of Genesis is airing.
Boy: Damn, TNA Wrestling. Its been ages since I've seen that. (Walks into bar) Say, who's wrestling?
Sober Customer: Dominik vs Suicide III for the Global title.
Boy: Dominik? He's still wrestling? Well for an old guy he still has it.
Sober Customer: You should've seen his dad. He wasn't even 6 feet or over 200 pounds and he would beat just about anybody. Well, except for that Indian fellow that was 7 feet tall.
Boy: Really? Say, isn't a "Global" Championship the same as a "World" Championship? Why is one a mid-card belt and the other a main event?
Sober Customer: I don't know. Booking never really made much sense when the title was made. Did you know that belt was first named as the "TNA Legends Championship"? Made no sense, I know.
Boy: I can see. Say, sir? How do you know all of this?
Sober Customer: Ah, I was around back then. I may not look like it, but I'm actually 51 years old you know. Nice complexion for an old man, huh? Say in all the excitement I never introduced myself. I'm Allen.
Boy: Oh, I forgot too. My name is Alaster. Alaster Kaine.
Allen: Nice to meet you, Alaster. Boy that's a pretty cool name. It would sound great being announced for a wrestling match. Do you wrestle?
Alaster: I've trained in martial arts a bit, but not much in wrestling. How about you?
Allen: Well, you could say I've been around the block. But...
The conversation is interrupted by a police taskforce that storm into the locate. Guns and shields at hand.
Officer: Allen Jones! You are here by under arrest!
Allen: WHAT!!?? Under what charges!?
Officer: Conspiracy of terrorism!
Alaster: WHAT!? What's going on here!! Allen Jones!? That means you're...!
Officer: Silence! Are you an accomplice!?
Alaster: NO! I just met the guy! But I hardly doubt...
Alaster's plight is interrupted by a slightly obese individual with a glass of beer in hand. He stutters around the bar making his way towards the supposed crime scene.
Drunk Customer: I saw th... them! They were talking!
Officer: About what!? Answer!
Allen: JOE!!!
Alaster: No. Fucking. Way! Joe?!
Officer: Answer!!
Joe: Stuff. You know? "Hey, how you doing?" "Good. How 'bout you? Hey I got the stuff you asked for, but watch it, it s killer". *hiccup*
Allen and Alaster: WHAT!!!
Officer: Looks like you guys just won yourselves all expense paid tickets to hell. You're coming with us, hands behind your head. And you sir, don't you dare go driving. We will find you.
Joe: That's OK. I don't have a car. I sold it for Twinkies.
Allen and Alaster are both cuffed and taken away. The screen fades with the officers sitting them in the back of a police van.

Alasters Log: March 5th, 2030
Twenty nine years ago a terrorist attack took place in the city of New York. Several planes crashed against the World Trade Center's Twin Towers and ravaged the city as well as the whole world. Security was questioned. Lives were lost. And the world changed. I wasn't around back then. All I know is that little by little, precautions were taken and changes were made. In 2012 a person by the name of Linda McMahon managed her way into the political world. She wasn't an ordinary woman. She had a very controversial background. She and her husband ran the World Wrestling Federation. An entertainment company that utilized a mix of acting, athletics and promotion to entertain. It was scripted. However what monkey sees monkey does. And its not always the same as what he sees. Little by little, clandestine wrestling federations grew in popularity. Security on the other hand was slipping out of control. You couldn't go a day without hearing about a massacre. Radical safety measures would be taken. Criminals would be sent to a remote, undisclosed location. However, not for incarceration but for rehabilitation. Task forces would be assembled and literally march down streets to sweep up any and all potential offenders. To the worlds surprise, such extreme actions worked. Life has never been safer. However what has happened to all of the people that have been taken away?

I guess piece can be shattered a lot faster than it can be repaired...
Looks like I'm about to learn where "bad people" go. I really hope I can sort this out.
