This is it I thought.
Tonight is the night. In just a few short hours I will finally meet my
brother one on one inside of the CWF battleground. This match is not
only my chance to finally show Sean just how inferior he is to me, but
it will also mark my third World Title reign. That's right, tonight I
take home the CWF World Championship, and their isn't a thing Sean
Graves can do about it!
I open the stage door to the arena. Inside there is allot of movement.
Production staff and such. everyone seems to be running around like
there's a fire on their ass. Not surprising though, considering this is
the CWFs biggest event to date. I make my way to my dressing room.
Turns out there is a "friend" waiting in here for me. Terry Blackstone.
The man who at one time guided my career to the top ranks of the NWO,
and also helped me and Sean obtain the XWFs Tag Titles.
Terry Blackstone Hey champ, how ya'
feeling?
Micheal Graves Operational.
Terry Blackstone Eh, yeah. anyway I
just wanted to come by and wish you luck. You've got a big match
tonight.
Micheal Graves Yes, the beginning
of my reign as the best talent in the CWF, and the end of Sean Graves!
Terry Blackstone Yeah, you are one
of the best, that's for sure. But don't take this match lightly,
remember, Sean was good enough to be your partner, and I think he's
good enough to beat you if your not careful.
Not what I wanted to
hear!
Micheal Graves Listen, Sean
Graves couldn't beat me if I had both arms tied behind my back! Sean is
the runt of the liter! A glorified loser who has taken a ride of the
coat tails of my name sake! Tonight I prove to everyone once and for
all that Sean Graves is nothing more than a wannabe Micheal!
Terry Blackstone I'm just saying,
be careful. Sean isn't the pathetic loser you seem to think he is.
Remember, he has beaten some big names over the years.
Micheal Graves Yeah, and lost to
some much smaller ones. My brother, the man you seem to ready to back
in this match has never won a major title! His Tag Team title reign was
carried by me, and once again he just road my coat tails. When he got
it in his mind that he was better than me, he attacked me, like a
coward, from behind. Then he went on to a singles career that fell flat
on it's ass, got demoted to Massacre, and finally ended up here in the
CWF. A place that many in the XWF consider to be for the broken down,
washed up, has been stars. That would almost be true for Sean, if it
wasn't for the fact that he never was anything more than mid level
lackey! I on the other hand have carried plenty of titles. I've been to
the top many times, and in many different places. I left the XWF due to
injuries, not due to the fact that my career was heading in to a
downward spiral, and I came here not because the XWF didn't want me,
but because I wanted Sean. In comparison, Sean Graves is nothing, and
never will be anything either. When he leaves this sport, he will be
forgotten, but when I decide to step out of the lime light, I will have
the satisfaction of knowing that I will be remembered for a long long
time. Now tell me, how does my brother, Sean Graves, stand a chance
against me in the ring?
Terry Blackstone Micheal, you know
that anyone can be beaten, even you. Sean has the will to do it, and
when he applies himself, he can reach further heights than even you.
Micheal Graves HA! I would like
to see the day. Sure, Sean might want revenge on me for trying to kill
him last summer, and maybe he's still upset about all the public
beatings I've given him. But that doesn't mean he will have enough
motivation to last in the ring with me. One breath of fire, that's all
it will take to take him out of his game. Then, once he's stunned, I
will deliver the most devastating Bodysault ever seen! Trust me Terry,
once I'm done, Sean Graves will be begging to be my partner again,
instead of my target.
Terry Blackstone Speaking of
partner...
Micheal Graves Yeah, I know, I'm
teaming with him in the XWF. As long as Sean knows his place in that
match he will be fine.
Terry Blackstone And what place
might that be?
Micheal Graves Twenty paces
behind me of course.
Terry Blackstone You know Mike, I
just can't understand why the two of you can't make up and go back to
teaming. Sure, you tried to kill him, and he tried to kill you. If you
ask me, the both of you have a few screws lose. I mean come on, he's a
bad person, he's killed people, and openly admits to it. That made you
want him dead, because what? He was tarnishing your image? I don't know
if you realize it or not Micheal, but in your quest for vengeance, or
whatever the fuck you want to call it, you've managed to do nothing
more then become as bad as he is. It just doesn't make since to me for
the two of you to continue fighting, not when you guys made such a
great team, and further more were a real family just a few months ago.
Micheal Graves Enough...
Terry Blackstone No, it's not
enough. Listen man, you might not want to admit it, but you really
seemed happy while you and Sean were getting along. The both of you
did. Sure, he made a mistake, he betrayed you, but like I said, your
history is so deep with the man that you guys are never going to have a
perfectly normal relationship, but then again, nobody really does.
Micheal Graves I said enough!
Terry Blackstone Micheal... just
try to listen to me, just this once take my advice. Go out there
tonight and have your match with Sean. Find out who really is the
better man, and then, let that be the end of it. Win or lose just let
the past between the two of you go. You guys don't need to be fighting
like this.
Micheal Graves Terry shut the
fuck up already! I don't need to hear this speech, trust me. Sure, I
will admit that I enjoyed the time spent with Sean, it was a nice
change of pace to have a family again. But the fact still remains that
tonight Sean Graves stands across the ring from me. Tonight he stands
in the way of me gaining another championship title, and even without
any of our past, that reason alone is enough to justify the beating he
will take. Now, if you don't mind leaving, I have a match to prepare
for.
Terry Blackstone Have it your way
Micheal, but I really feel like this is a mistake. The two of you could
do so much more as a team, but instead you would rather be at each
others throats. I.... I just really think it's sad.
Micheal Graves Maybe it is Terry,
but the world isn't exactly a happy place now is it?
Terry Blackstone I guess not...
And with that Terry slowly walked out
of the locker room. Once he left I let out a deep breath and set down.
Inside of my head it was like a war was being waged. Something inside
of me really wanted to listen to Terry, and it was fighting to have
it's voice heard, but at the same time I still had a mission to
complete, and my objectives could not be changed... Sean Graves will be
the first to fall victim...
