The scene opens to a rather run down neighborhood, houses degrading and broken pavement is all one an see. The camera moves along the sidewalk, catching up to two cloaked figures walking along the broken pavement while a dark red sky with ominous black clouds swirl overhead. The wind suddenly picks up, blowing the hoods off the cloaked figures, revealing Ty Burna and Serafina. A few people walk past, stumbling on the broken pavement while Ty and Serafina almost glide across the pavement. Serafina looks up at Ty and raises an eyebrow.
Serafina: Should we not be preparing with the other two?
Ty: At this moment they need to become acclimated with their new surroundings. I do not need to hold their hands at ever corner.
Ty begins walking at a quickened pace, his fingers sliding across the crumbling brick of the building next to him. Serafina rushes to catch up to him, looking slightly annoyed.
Is there anything I can do in preparation for the Cell Master?
You can go assist Chris and James.
Serafina is taken back a bit by the blunt response. Ty looks down at her, his eyes glowing an intense shade of red. She nods her head and sighs, turning away into the shadows and disappearing. Ty stops and gazes over at the corner of the neighborhood, and suddenly the screen changes to black and white. A younger version of Ty is seen standing against a building, his arms crossed and a cigarette in his mouth. He is wearing a black hoodie, the hood up and covering his eyes. Suddenly another young man walks up and Ty shakes hands with him as the scene zooms in slowly.
Ant what's going on man?
Ant: Not a thing homie, how's business?
You know how it goes, it ain't the first or the fifteenth yet, so the fiends ain't got any money for the product.
I hear that, still we gotta make something to buy the next round.
This just ain't working like it should Ant. We barely make any profit of what we got going on now, and we're still competing against the 37th Street hustlers at the same time.
The two go silent as Ty takes a puff on his cigarette and tosses it aside as the scene jumps back to the present. Ty is now standing against the building, his arms crossed and his head lowered.
It's amazing we even survived the way we were going. Aimlessly selling and buying, never looking towards that ultimate goal. We had enemies who were ready and willing to wipe us off the face of the earth at a moment's notice. No way to protect ourselves, yet we pushed on.
Ty begins walking again as he rounds the corner and passes by a small store. A child rushes into the store as the sound of thunder claps above. The bell tied to the door chimes out, a frail sound of hope in a land of desolation. Ty suddenly turns and heads down an alley, the sound of gutter cats crying out in hunger echoing throughout. Ty stops and the scene changes to black and white again, with the younger Ty sitting on the ground, blood dripping from his lip. A hulking presence can be seen just off camera, as Ty raises his head and wipes the blood from his lip.
That all you got man? You ain't shit!
Ty is quickly to his feet and throws a right cross, but the hulking figure catches Ty's arm and slams him back first into the wall next to him. Ty crumbles to the ground as the hulking figure walks into the light. A man of about 40 dressed in a pinstriped suit. His hair has a few grey hairs but otherwise trimmed and slicked pack with precision. The man brushes off his coat jacket and crosses his arms as Ty tries to drag himself up again.
???: You need guidance. Out here you're liable to get eaten alive. I see potential in you and your associate. You know what you're doing out there in this game, but you don't have the backing or the support. And for once in your miserable life show some god damn respect!
The figure slams his leg into Ty's midsection and Ty lies on the ground holding his stomach as the man laughs.
You want to die or get paid? I can kill you now and grant you the former. Or if you want the latter...
The man reaches into his jacket and tosses a piece of paper down next to Ty.
You and Anthony can meet me there to discuss business like professionals.
The man begins walking away as the scene returns to the present. Ty chuckles and shakes his head as he walks through the alley and back into the depths of the neighborhood. He stops and sits down on the curb, his right knee up and his arm resting on it. He closes his eyes and lowers his head.
You see, I have never been the perfect warrior. I was just like Mr. Baller, letting my ego get the best of me. I could never understand the dire danger standing in front of me. All I wanted to do is run my mouth, and yet you see what happened. I was dissected and discarded like garbage. Ascension proved to me he hasn't learned the lesson necessary to compete in such a match. He will be devoured and tossed aside inside my domain. A pity, someone with such potential will never be the same after the horrors he will see in the Cell. It is what one must learn. While you may be boisterous, there will be someone ready to destroy your very vision of the future. I knew then that Anthony and I could not continue as we were, or as Mr. Eide said, we would be killed and hung out for the whole world to see his warning. Pride can lead to many things, it can also lead to the death of your sanity. I wasn't about to let that happen. I saw an opportunity to expand our work and actually get somewhere in life.
The scene goes to black and white again as the younger Ty and Anthony sit on the same curb, Anthony mindlessly tossing rocks into the street as Ty lights up a cigarette and exhales slowly, his mind lost in thought.
What do we got to worry about man?
Ty doesn't respond as he looks down at his feet, the smoke from his cigarette slowly rolling out in front of him. He takes another puff as Anthony speaks again.
Yo Ty, I said what do we gotta worry about man?
Ty looks up, starting at Anthony for a few moments before shaking his head.
You heard Eide, It's either we do or he sends his army after us. We can handle a few street rats sure, but then he'll send the enforcers out and we're done.
Gives me all the more motivation to make it man. What do you think?
We need to join his Familia. I mean, we don't have any other way around this man. Think about it, we become the representatives around this hood. We have power and the money to push the weight that we need to.
Yeah, but then we writing our lives away in blood man. You don't want to be here forever do you?
Ty goes silent again as he continues smoking his cigarette. He flicks it out into the street as the scene returns to the present.
A deal with the devil, the opportunity for the riches and the power. Or so I had believed. Just like in WZCW, it was about making it to the top, no matter who had to be used, and who I had to trample over to get there. We were kids running around thinking we were powerful. We were nothing, insignificant worms. That thinking will get you in trouble. So as it is with Big Dave, a man who believes himself to be worth more than he truly is. I toyed with his mind, making him believe to be the one to take my title. And while that may be true one day, he will never be as great as he wishes to be. He will always be the disappointment. What could have been a great fable for the annals of WZCW history became mine. I took what he believed was his, to be so dominant for so long, and to claim the World Heavyweight Championship. One year later, here we stand, just as it was then, just as it will continue to be, me standing in the limelight, and Big Dave holding the curtain, his jealousy running rampant in his mind. Just as it was then, so it will be after Unscripted.
Ty slowly stands and begins walking again, the red sky turning to pitch black as the dusk shifts to night. The camera follows Ty as he walks down the street, reaching the warehouses aligning the neighborhood at the end of the block.
He speaks of his convictions, he speaks of his determination. We all know how determined you are Dave to not ultimately be the failure you trouble yourself about every day. That day you forfeited the Eurasian title, I watched with amusement as if dropping a title I had already earned at one point was supposed to impress me. Your accomplishments have meant nothing Dave! Just like Anthony, you feign the want for more, yet you trip step after step as you desperately reach out to grab the brass ring you have placed in front of you. How does it feel Dave? To constantly fail at your own self appointed goals? Hoping and saying you are determined to win means nothing unless you go out and take it for yourself! A year ago I made it a mission to end Vengeance and take his precious World Title, and just like I have always done, I did exactly that. It's such a shame that your poor crippled friend Ace has more heart then you do. While you stand and wallow in your sorrow over your lost opportunities, Ace loses the use of his legs and shrugs it off. Another road block to his glory, tell me Dave, what went through your mind as Chris and James crushed your ribs?
Ty lowers his head and begins laughing maniacally. The moon begins to rise in the sky as Ty reaches a particular warehouse. He stands in front of it as he throws his head back, his laughter echoing through the streets.
Did the thought of being inside my realm frighten you? Or the fact that I have such power at my command to simply render you useless? Were you angry Dave? Angry that you couldn't fight back as the Apostles of Chaos decimated your very being? Or did the fear of failing completely wash over you? This environment is mine and mine alone. No one can ever take it away from me! And so Dave, when it's all over with, and you lie possibly crippled just like your friend, what will you do then? Your determination will wilt away, your glorious dreams of being champion just a mere memory, you will have nothing, and you will be nothing! Another lost opportunity, and while Toyota and Barbosa take advantage of your failures and challenge me, you will be once again standing in the back, watching from behind the curtain as the spotlight shines down upon me!
Ty stares up at the warehouse, and the scene slowly fades to black and white once more, a young Ty and Anthony walks into the warehouse, Eide standing with his back to the two of them. Suddenly two men pin Ty's arms back, the same to Anthony as Eide turns back around and smirks.
What the hell is this Eide?
Insurance purposes. I don't need either of you attacking me. Stefan, tell your men to let them go.
Ty and Anthony are let go as they brush themselves off as Stefan backs off as do the other men. Ty straightens his hat and crosses his arms.
Alright, we're in. What's the terms?
Terms? You little punks go about your business as you normally do, only you pay a thirty percent fee to the Familia.
What do we get out of it?
I don't squeeze you by the neck until your head pops off.
So that's it, shake down money is all you want from us? I thought you wanted to incorporate us in to your business.
Eide begins laughing as he shakes his head. He reaches into his jacket and takes out a cigar. He clips it and lights it, puffing on it before speaking.
You two are just street rats. I have enough to put the whole 37th Street Crew in the mortuary at the snap of a finger. You are worthless. Now you get this through your heads. I run this city, you run nothing. You just think you do. Now get the hell out of my building and get to work!
Ty looks ready to protest but Stefan flashes a knife and Ty shakes his head, tossing his arms up in the air as he and Anthony exit the building. Anthony and Ty begin walking back towards the neighborhood when suddenly Stefan walks out. Ty and Anthony stop and turn towards him.
Stefan: Yo, Loco white boy.
What do you want man?
Look I know Eide is messed up, but esse he takes care of his hard workers. You'll see.
So we gotta bow down to him before he even does anything for us?
You'll see man.
Ty shakes his head and turns around and begins walking again, suddenly Stefan rushes up and tries to stab Ty with his knife. Ty spins away and with a right cross, Stefan is on the ground out cold. Ty looks at Anthony concerned, who returns the same look as the scene returns to the present.
Stefan couldn't stand us doing work for Eide. We were going to take away his piece of the pie eventually, and the only way to keep that piece was to eliminate us immediately. But you see, Stefan gave us the false sense of security only to try to eliminate us. This would not be the last battle I had with him. Just as I have had multiple battles with Steven Kurtesy, I always ended up the victor. Kurtesy is just as two faced, a mad doctor who wants you to believe him as some spiritual yogi. Deep down we all know the truth doctor, you're just as mad as you were before. You are inside the Cell for the second time. You lick your lips just salivating at the damage you can do in there. You want to send your supposed friend Big Dave through the top of the cell. You want to cut Mr. Baller to shreds with that piece of glass you used again me. What was said that one time we faced off? That you wanted to make me into an experiment. You wanted to peel back my mind to see what was inside. Have you learned your lesson from that Kurtesy? I want to destroy everything around me. Destruction and despair must be spread from one end of the earth to other until I am satiated. And oh have I rather enjoyed putting you in the hospital, the same hospitals they once kept me.
Ty takes a deep breath before walking past the warehouse and towards the park. Images flash on the screen of Ty fighting Anthony at the park before Ty shakes his head, willing the memories back into his mind.
Rather than straight jackets, you use your incense and chakras to create this persona you parade around in now. Rather than using shock therapy you try to use your sympathetic shoulder to keep your patients in check. You are nothing more than those vile psychiatrists that chained me up, using every torture device they could, just as if it was a witch hunt in Salem. You are exactly like them Holmes, I know the viciousness deep inside of you, the lack of emotion when you watched your patients struggle in pain. It is just as Big Dave claims to be at peace. I know what is truly under the facade, yet neither of you will accept the fact that I see past it all. So it comes to this, I had to bring you back Steven. I had to bring you back to your most monstrous acts of violence. I had to deliver the pain unto you, to bring out the very person I know lurks underneath. I want to eliminate that Steven Kurtesy. I want the mad doctor willing to do whatever it took to win. I want him for this match Steven! I want to put him down like the rabies infected dog he is! I want him back in that Cell, I want to recreate the chaos we spread throughout the arena that night! It is the only way to commemorate what became my greatest night! You and Dave may go back to your Pow Wow circles and meditation groups afterwards, the scars will remind you ever day of what became of you yet again inside the Cell!
Ty lifts his arms up and the screen goes black for a few moments before coming back up, Ty standing in the large hall room. Hooded figures line the hall, the Obsidian Throne standing atop the altar. Ty sits on the throne, his hand hooked around the WZCW World Heavyweight Title. Serafina, James, and Chris walk in and Ty stands, motioning them over.
The time has come to cleanse WZCW of the unwashed! The nonbelievers will be eliminated one by one until only the Gospel of Chaos is all they swear their lives to! It begins at Unscripted as my Apostles crush Everest and Brad Bomb. A statement must be made that evening you two, and you will begin the spreading of the message!
Ty raises his arms up as the other hooded figures begin chanting in Latin. A maniacal smile forms on Ty's face as he looks down at Chris and James.
Chris: We will not disappoint you.
James: They will forfeit to the will of Chaos!
Soon all will know the power they truly face.
Ty lowers one arm as he keeps the WZCW World Heavyweight Title lifted high into the air.
They will have no choice but to kneel to the King of Darkness. The Chaos will slowly dig it's tendrils into the very fabric of this company, and soon they will all understand the greatness that Chaos can provide to them. While many will resist, they will be crushed, their resistance little more than an annoyance. At Unscripted, I put away Big Dave's confidence, I put the mad doctor Kurtesy to sleep, and I will teach Baller a lesson in humility for once in his pathetic life! The carnage will be great, the blood spilled just for the grand prize will be plentiful, yet through it all I will stand inside the Cell victorious, the power of Chaos pulsating throughout the building. And I shall walk over the broken corpses, the Ouija feasting upon what remains of their souls.
The Gospel of Chaos shall be spread to all.
No longer will we allow the foolish and misguided to continue on the wrong path.
We shall share the power of Chaos with them, rather through our words, or through physical submission. Just as Dave, Kurtesy, and Baller will find out at Unscripted, the King of Darkness will continue his reign over WZCW.
Ty continues holding the World Title high in the air as all the hooded figures lift their voices in unison.
Hooded Figures: All hail the King of Darkness!
The screen goes black for a moment before cutting back to black and white. Eide can be seen sitting behind a dark oak desk, large piles of money sitting in front of him on the desk. Suddenly a large crack can be heard as baseball bat meets cranium. Eide slumps over as Ty stands over him, holding the bat. He drops it and pulls up a large duffel bag. He begins shoving the money into the duffel bag. Once filled he zips it up and picks up the bat. He begins making his exit but stops in the doorway.
No matter what happens Eide.
The shot of Ty goes split screen, one black and white of younger Ty meshing into a shot of present Ty in color and the two speak in unison.
I always find a way to stay on top.
The feed cuts out.
