{{The scene fades in.
You see yourself at one of the entrances to Los Angeles
International Airport, or LAX as it's known
throughout the world. You look to the far right and you see
Skarrphace talking with someone at the counter. The counter is
unmarked as you look around for the airline it's associated with.
As you approach Skarrphace, you pick up this part of the
conversation.}}
Skarrphace: So....we're all set to take off as soon
as I board, right?
Attendant: That's right, Mr. Skarrphace. Right now
it's 9:50 p.m. California time, and we should have you in Orlando
around 3:00 a.m. EST. You did request this late of a flight, didn't
you?
Skarrphace: Yes, I did. I wanted to avoid the rush
during the day....thank you....gate 213 right?
Attendant: Correct, sir. Have a pleasant flight.
{{Skarrphace picks
up his papers that were on the counter and folds them up and puts
them in his pants pocket.
He gets his bags and heads down the terminal hallway, a long,
wide passageway. He gets to the security gate and
places his two travel bags on the conveyor belt as he takes his
keys and large gold Rolex watch off and places them
inside the bowl that the security guard takes. He walks through
security and gets his bags to continue on. A few moments
later, you see a sign for Gate 213 up ahead and Skarrphace veers
into the lobby area and towards the door that leads
to the outside. He strides right past the attendant at the door,
merely waving his paper he had pulled out from his pocket.
Once through the door he makes his way down a flight of stairs
and opens another door and suddenly you're outside.
You hear the sounds of planes and engines all around and you
continue on with Skarrphace. He gets to a small leir jet
and walks up the steps to board it. As soon as you and he are
aboard, the stewardess closes the door.
You recognize Xavier Apollo from the night before already on
board and Skarrphace slaps hands with him in greeting as
he takes a seat across the plane from him.}}
Xavier
Apollo: I didn't
think you were gonna make it, 'Phace....
Skarrphace: I always make it, X, you know that....besides,
I didn't want the daytime flights, too many people....anyway, did
you get my message from earlier today?
Xavier
Apollo: Yeah, I
did....and I got what you asked for, although it wasn't easy....
{{Apollo reaches to
the bag that was laying beside him and unzips the top of the bag.
He reaches inside and pulls
out a bag. He hands the bag to Skarrphace and Skarrphace reaches
in and pulls out two VHS-like tapes.}}
Xavier
Apollo: Just
like you asked for....one is a tape of Calhoun's past matches and
the other is a tape of his interview done today....I think you
definately got his attention.....
Skarrphace: Oh....so you watched the interview
already huh? Yeah, well he'd better learn never to take someone
like me likely....let's see what he had to say....
{{Skarrphace takes
the tape marked "Today's Interview" and slides in in
the VCR to his right.
He takes the remote control from the console and presses "PLAY"
as soon as the tape is all the way in.
Suddenly, you hear the captain come on the speakers inside the
cabin.}}
Captain
Over: Yes, this
is Captain Over....we are about to take off from LAX here in just
a few moments so if you would observe the Seatbelt and No Smoking
signs are turned on for your safety....please sit back, relax and
enjoy your flight...next stop, Orlando, Florida....
{{Skarrphace and
Xavier look at each other and just crack up as the interview
starts up. After watching the interview,
Skarrphace stops the tape and looks to be pretty mad as he
composes himself.}}
Skarrphace: So let me see if I've got this right....Calhoun
is getting his piece of shit Lexus fitted with a system....and
because he's a cheap mother fucker who wants to live life as a
wannabe gangster, he pulls out a glock and threatens to kill a
man over stereo equipment? Who the fuck is this guy?!? Listen up
Calhoun, listen well. The world, as you know it, is coming to an
end starting Wednesday night. This sort of bullshit is just what
I was talkin' about....you wanna give the 'Phace a history lesson....how
fuckin' quaint....but let me tell you a little something about
history....when the 'Phace is involved, history has a way of
changing....and besides, what you did in the past means
absolutely NOTHING to me. I am the future of this sport, of this
industry....and I am the one who will make or break hundreds upon
thousands in this business....Calhoun, I am the Standard by which
things are judged. Do you actually think YOU can say that about
yourself? Think about that for a while as I get myself a drink....let
that sink in....
{{Skarrphace stands
up as he walks over to the small bar on the far end of the cabin.
He gets out a highball glass and a bottle of cognac. He reaches
into a cooler and puts about 5 or 6 cubes of ice into the glass,
and they click around a bit as they settle in. He opens the
bottle and fills the glass about halfway.
Closing the bottle and replacing it where he got it, he goes back
to his seat, still looking focused.}}
Skarrphace: And another thing....since when do you
have to walk around carrying weapons to be a man? The 'Phace
walks around with his bare fists, but then again I don't go
looking for trouble either....you see, it's absolute trash like
you that makes me sick, and I can't wait to rid the UwF of your
punkass come Wednesday night....do you see this? Take a look at
me, Calhoun, take a long ass look, because I will be standing
over you when it's all said and done and I will be the one moving
on in the Universal Title Tournament....all you do with your time
is think up more ways to talk shit and different languages, but
it all says the same fuckin' thing to me....word after word comes
out of your mouth, but the sound never changes....the tune never
changes....the best bullshit artist in town, and that's you,
Calhoun....the man with a gun. Big fuckin' deal....I tell you
what, why don't you show up to Orlando with that gun, you fuckin'
prick, and I'll take it and pistol whip your ass so bad, your
mother won't recognize you....oh wait, you prolly shot your
mother cuz she tried to get you to pay for something you thought
was overpriced.....what a bastard. You talk like you want ME to
recognize.....yeah, I recognize....I recognize fake-ass bullshit
when I see it, and you are spittin' it out by the ton....feeding
the public dose after dose of your Grade A bullshit and hoping...praying
that they'll buy it. Well, CC, I'm not buyin' bro....and you have
officially bought yourself a ticket into the worst beating of
your life come tomorrow night....I'm gonna make sure that nobody....and
I mean NOBODY ever takes the 'Phace lightly again....especially
your punkass....
{{Apollo gets up and
goes to the bar himself. As he's fixing his drink, Skarrphace
leans into the camera.}}
Skarrphace: And one more thing, Calhoun....my name
is spelled S-K-A-R-R-P-H-A-C-E....Skarrphace, the ONLY 1 THAT
MATTERS....but you....you can just call me Champ.....if you
actually think that you are ready to ride with the Only 1, then
let's do this....hop up on the Merry-Go-fuckin'-Round.....and
MOUNT UP....see you Wednesday, bitch....
{{Apollo comes back
down and puts his seatbelt on as the plane begins to move.
Skarrphace presses "EJECT" on the remote control and
takes the tape out of the VCR.
He take the other tape marked "Calhoun's Past Matches"
and puts it into the VCR.
As he presses "PLAY" on the remote control, the scene
fades out.}}
