What would you say?
“Hello Lexie, thank you for showing up to talk to me.”
We hear the voice of Goth utter the name of the woman that has beaten him on Wrestle War 8, where the stipulation would be that he would have to leave her alone. The camera shows him seated at a restaurant with his massive back towards the camera. This causes the shot being unable to see who he is talking to, but we do not hear a response from any other individual
“I know that I shouldn’t have contacted you again, but we shard such a special time with each other that I just had to try one final time. I would have stayed away if you would have turned me down, but for some reason I knew you have a heart of gold and wouldn’t deny my final words.”
Goth lifts his head upwards before turning it to the right, letting out a deep sigh while wiping a tear away from his left eye without wanting to look back towards “Lexi”
“Forgive me for being so emotional, I mean I just didn’t know what I had to say when I would come face to face with you. I…. no, please let me explain.”
He takes a deep breath as the camera slowly turns around the veteran wrestler, where we see an empty chair opposite to him. Causing the camera to look around to whom he is actually talking to until suddenly noticing what Goth is holding in his hands.
He is staring at a doll that has some resemblances to Lexi, but it’s got an evil like persona that we do not have grown accustomed from Lexi. Apparrently this was the vision that Goth had for the woman that he had fought against at Wrestle War 8 to win over her control or free her from his torture.
“I know, I am coming on too strong. You are absolutely right, but thank you for giving me the chance to show that I am capable to change, all I ask of you is to give me a chance.”
There’s a moment of silence as Goth can be seen lowering his head towards the doll, that is seated there upon a little custom made chair while smiling at him. Goth’s head nods in agreement as he starts to rub his hands in anticipation.
“Thank you Lexi, thank you for allowing me to prove my worht to you. I know you have always wanted a man that is strong, that knows how to take matters in his own hands and takes out those who stands in his way.”
The camera pans out, trying to figure out whether there is someone that is actually playing a game with Goth’s mind. But ultimately we realize that Goth and the doll are the only ones left in the restaurant.
“And what better way to prove my worth to take down two men that stand between me and challenging Cholo for his Intercontinental championship. A title that he deservingly won in a tournament, but now has to prove his worth all over again by combating new and fresh challenges. Something I know that I can offer to him wouldn’t you agree???”
His eyes are staring desperately into the laughing face of the doll, making him grin sadistically as he obviously has been granted confirmation to his statement.
“And what a better way to make a statement against two men that ride on a high leading into this coming Monday Night Brawl. “Marvelous” Mike Mason is one. And boy talking about someone that has got issues wanting to have all the spotlight being shown upon his head huh?? Not being booked, taking a cheap shot at a man that already had endured a brutal fight. Merely wanting to hold his title above his head, because in his desperate mind he believes HE should be the champion instead of Cholo. Luckily I have got no mental issues like that wouldn’t you agree Lexi??”
He is stroking the hair of the doll as if he is mesmerized by it, his eyes ae glowing of desire and his smile shows a sign of sadistic nature
“And then there’s the other, Axel Shaw. Who had a successful debut on Wrestle Wars 8, beating two other established names in his in ring debut. Someone that I cannot and should not take too lightly, like I did with…. No, you deserved that victory Lexi. How could I make the mistake of taking you lightly??”
He looks away from the doll with some sort of insecurity in his face as if he is verbally punished by the doll if he would have said something wrong.
“No, you are absolutely deserving to have your freedom. Like I already attempted to proclaim that I made a mistake. You know, the infamous slip of the tongue so to speak.”
Sweat of his nervosity is clearly approaching his face as he is searching for words to improve the “situation” that he has gotten himself into.
”Please do not turn your back to me Lexi, it’s the nerves that has taken control over my mind. I am incapable to think straight with you around. You know, the same thing that has caused John Cable to stutter a few times around… you…”
This time he backs off, pushing the chair all the way away from the table as his face is one of complete and utter shock. Putting his hands in front of his face as if to protect himself from the profanity that the doll was screaming towards him.
“NO!! YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY IGHT!! He is just a friend, just like I try to be. I….,”
There is silence on the face of clear and utter fear while listening to “Lexi”
“You are right, I should stop trying to apologize for every misstep may make. I am not giving the proper vibes towards you to believe that I could be a trustworthy friend of yours. But I will prove it to you this coming Monday. I will make my first step in my own declaration of my own independence… and then… we….”
He stares at the doll and shakes his head while smiling sadistically
“No that would be too early to profss to the world, something that all of you need to wait for the truth to set you all fee.”
“Something I may have to say that makes you less “Marvelous” Mike. I can understand that you have felt neglected, being kept off the card with unjustified reasons. You was so close to reach the finals, but then again… did you really wanted to reach the finals?? Or was it merely the fact that your fixations were solely upon Cholo?? I can tell you from experiences, being fixated upon a person that you do not deserve can break you mentally Mike. Perhaps I need to suggest you to take some psychological classes to perhaps get control over your mental instabilities…. “
“What Lexi??”
Goth’s concentration is cut off midway his sentence by the “Lexi” doll as she apprrently has got something to say as he nods his head in agreement.
“You are absolutely right, I should indeed inform Mike that there’s no shame in admitting that when you have been teased as a small child that it could haunt you in later years. I can see it now, Mike was once bullied and those tormenting deeds has set through into your mind. That your only capabilities to showcase how fond you are for someone else through aggression. But you need to understand that through this way you only push those who you love away from you Mike. Look at me, I have all that I want. I have a beautiful fiancé, a wonderful son and soon the very best friend that a human being could ever ask for in the palm of my hand… as long as I do not slip up and keep trying to do my best.. Because that is the only way how I can win her over… I mean win her trust. Forgive me, that was just another slip of the tongue.. Words are often so confusing when you are confronted by so much different stimulations in life.”
“But my intentions towards you are perfectly clear Mike, it’s obvious that you are either weak, simple minded or just searching for attention. Perhaps it’s all a combination of all three, but this isn’t the way to make it happen my friend. And I am the one that should know, hell I moved Heaven and Earth to get the best potential friend of my life to agree to accept the invite to my personal masked ball.. And she didn’t even knew it was me!! Can you imagine how delighted she would have been if she knew???”
Goth’s expression turns back towards “Lexi” and has an even broader smile upon his face as he believes that h is actually got a nod of approval from “her”.
“Now I can already tell the differences between the man with life experience in yours truly in comparison to a bold and clearly foolish boy in you. Seriously Mike, open up your heart in all the possibilities if you only TRY!! You could have done things so much differently, merely by asking Cholo to be your friend. Is that difficult for you my dear “Marvelous” choke artist Mike??”
“If that’s the case, then allow me to give you a personal class in meeting people and try to figure out what their interests are. Because when that bell is starting to ring, I am going to be put you through the wrestling grinder that is a formality. A formality that only those can give who truly have the best of interest in your in your life. But I know, you have made some terrible decisions, you picked up the wrong influences that troubled your soul and before you knew it this will lead you into being dropped by a Goth Drop. Planting you face first into the canvas, not because I want to hurt you as it will hurt me more than it will ever hurt you Mike. But more the mere fact that you are doing exactly what I was dreading prior to Wrestle Wars. You anger those who you wish to love. You are too blindd by your own greed,, I need to make you see that you are doing everything wrong!!!”
“But to show you that I am not a bad individual, I will gant you the opportunity to become a friend just like Lexi. All you have to do is to open your heart to my wisdom.. I have been the one that changed the lives in Mark Cross…, I made him believe that by beating me that he could actually stand a chance against Peter Vaughn…I made Damage see that darkness isn’t the way to be victorious and he took my words by heart!! And then there’s Lexi… my dear sweet Lexi.”
He stares at the doll with dark intent
“She has made me realize that I may not be able to own her, but I will still be able to be an influence in her life no matter whether she will agree or not. And it will all lead to bigger and greater things… So be rejoiced Mike…., you will be next in an arguably long line of those who need to be freed.”
Goth’s head turns sideways as his mood has suddenly changed to one of concern.
“What’s that Lexi??”
Goth listens to the doll as he suddenly realizes something that “Lexi” is telling him.
“Forgive me my dear Lexi, I should not have been such an egotistical individual and not have introduced myself to both Mike and Axel. I know that was inconsiderate from me. Please, let me make it all up to you both…. I am the mant hat will beat you two to become number one contender for the Intercontinental championship.”
“Was that good enough??”
His look of concern slowly turns back into a confident smiling one as he clearly has done enough for “Lexi’s” liking.
“Congratlations Axel Shaw, you surely have made the people figure out that you weren’t wrong to sign to this company. Because you have shown us that you have talent, that you have got what it takes to win a match on the grandest stage of them all. And it leads to having an opportunity to become a number one contender for the Intercontinental championship. Such a joyful occasion for you and all your friend and relatives isn’t it?? And yet Lexi told me to warn you, because it’s getting too much. You will receive all the praises will come with the inevitable success. As everyone wants to have a piece of you,, everyone wishes to be your friend and dump you when it is all over.”
“Look at me, I have lost and I already figured that my life was gone, done and over with. And I have got the prove in the world that you need to accept the defeat to grow as a human being my friend. And Lexi has told me that I need to teach you the way…. Of life.”
His eyes stare towards the doll as he starts to agree his head and nods in agreement.
“Lexi told me that I need to do the opposite to what I must do to Mike towards you. I need to shower him with praises, while I need to shower YOU with punishments and dominance. Hell, should I even consider the words of dictatorship?? To take away the ability to have your own mind, to make your own decision and be who you have always thought that you were destined to be?? Tell me that it isn’t so!!! And all that Lexi has told me that it needs to be done to make you understand that success isn’t a given. That success is a burden that YOU need to go through before you are entitled to reach for the stars and obtain the gift that will set you free!!! The same way I am going to be released from the pressures of my existence!! Oh such a joyful occasion it will be when I can head back to the locker room and accept the gratitude of the doll of my life!!!”
“I hope you will understand that this is just a lesson to better your life as well as that of Mike Mason. To just have the ability to school the two of you into one match…. To educate you exactly the way that Lexi has seen fit for me to do. Because if it wasn’t for her, I would not even been able to open up to the world and tell how special she really is!!”
“And that will be the key to my success, for me to rebound from the loss that I have had to accept. The loss that was actually a moral victory for me, or at least that’s what Lexi has told me that it would be. And she would never lie to me, that’s not what friends would do to each other. And it’s because she is pure she is the ray of life. It was that what I realized when she and I fought inside that store that sold dolls, that the likeness of her fascination of dolls has captivated me in a way that it should do to you as well!! The question alone is that she isn’t so sure that you will. And I cannot tolerate that Alex I cannot tolerate you to throw away the gift that keeps on giving. Because if I am worthy of being able to change, then why wouldn’t you?? Are you better than me?? Are you more deserving to step in front of the line of those who have fought so hard to find the answer that has been eluding you?? NO!!! And I will punish you the same way as I have been punished, because then and only then I have learned that punishment is only the way to change…. And Lexi is the way to change… because if you deny the gift of change…, then you deny Lexi and with that you deny MY opportunity to be the friend that I have always knonw that I should have been!!!! But we shall only know when it is Monday don’t we Lexi???”
With that Goth smiles as the shot slowly fades.
