PART 1: THE BEGINNINGThe camera opened up to a dark room. It showed a young man, probably in his mid-teens, with short, dark hair, walking down an abandoned alleyway. As he made his way down, he lit a cigarette, a tiny spark of light in the dark emptiness of the city. A quick blast of static flashed over the screen, transitioning into another scene.
It showed the same man, chugging down whiskey straight out of the bottle. He fell into a coughing fit and collapsed to the ground, before the same static again. The next scene was an older woman, screaming at the man who stared on with a sort of fear in his eyes, almost similar to that of a lost puppy. However, she screamed only silence, for all sound was muted and replaced by
Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata droning in the background. After more static, it showed the man screaming back at the woman, then shoving her and walking out a door, slamming it behind him. The woman stared on, a slight pang of regret in her eyes, as the static transitioned into the next scene.
The same person, but slightly older looking, sat in the same alleyway. In his hand, was a handgun. He observed it, like trying to figure out some sort of puzzle, then slowly pulled on the slide. The gun clicked, and he stared at it again, then slowly raised it. He pressed it against the side of his skull, and the camera zoomed in on the trigger as he slowly pulled his finger over it. A loud
bang was heard, before the screen faded to black.
PART 2: REVIVALAfter the screen went black, it faded back in to a much brighter scene. It showed a close up of the man, sleeping in what appeared to be a completely white room. Suddenly, his eyes shot open, with a look of fear in them. He had a new look, as well; while one half of his hair remained the same, the other was shaved close to his head. Meanwhile, one eye was surrounded by black eyeliner, and the other natural.
He struggled to sit up as the camera zoomed out, revealing that he was in a padded cell, wearing a straitjacket. Suddenly, the fear faded to rage, and he awkwardly stumbled to his feet like a baby penguin learning to walk, then thrashed around the room aimlessly, banging his head into the harmless walls before finally collapsing to the ground in a fit of hysteria. Suddenly, the door open, and a doctor walked in. He turned around, breathing heavily.
DOCTORMr. Black, you have a guest...Black sat up, wide-eyed, at the dark-haired man with a goatee. The man smiled slightly as he advanced towards Black, who continued to stare on with that distant, almost eerie look in his eyes.
???Leo, bro. I hope you feel better, because you're checking out. It's time to go home. But I've got a present waiting for you.Two security guards walked in, removing the straitjacket from Leo Black, who continued to stare. The other man chuckled slightly, helping Leo up who finally cracked, a huge smile forming off his face as he hugged him, then pulled away.
LEO BLACKO-Oliver... He remained speechless, while Oliver just grinned and helped him out of the room. The doctor stared on warily, then wrote a few things down on a clipboard as the screen, once again, faded to black.
PART 3: BACK IN BLACKWhen the camera opened up again, the two men were in the kitchen of a house, sitting at a table. A handful of smaller children ran around them, chasing eachother and laughing, as an older woman approached the two.
MRS. WILHELMHere, Leo. I got you some water. It's great to have you back, it really is. I'm glad you're feeling better.Leo muttered a half-hearted "thanks" before taking a small sip of the water. He set it down and pushed it away slightly, before turning back up towards Oliver.
LEO BLACKSo, what's my present..?Oliver grinned and stood up, pushing in his chair, Leo stared at him, unsure, but eventually followed suit.
OLIVER WILHELMYou're wrestling again. I found you a new fed, you've even got yourself a match already. But, I need to show you something first.He stood up, and Leo reluctantly followed him out through the house, up a staircase, and into another room. Oliver walked in through the doorway, then leaned out of the way to make room for Leo.
OLIVER WILHELMThis... this is your tag team partner.Leo stared on, wide-eyed, and dropped the water glass. A huge shatter silenced the whole house, and WEW audience watching from the titanTRON, as the camera panned forwards to, grinning maniacally... Dante Kendrix.
