'The Devil Has His Way'

[||::The Devil, Andy Cobern, Leader of Industry Four, Whatever I wanna call him. Now he has me under control. Its not something I like. I chose to try to kill him for a reason, for now, after three years, he wants me on his side. For what reasons, I dont know, and now, he wants to act like my buddy, after he made he kill one friend, he kiled another, along with my brother Nick. The Devil is in my ear. I have to do what he says.::||]

[Josh Smith is driving the Chevy Impala. Cobern and I are in the back. Its now been about 12 hours since sWc Glory went off the air. I was picked up outside of the arena, since I am affiliated with I-4 now, I either have to give up my wrestling career, or follow Andy's insructions. He smokes a cigar. I hate those things.]

[Andy Cobern] That was a good match last night Raphael. Now, I left you in the dark long enough.

[Raph] So you're going to tell me where this car is headin?

[Andy Cobern] Yes. We are going to pay Blain Stecker a visit.

[Raph] Whoa! Yo Cobern. I dunno what you had in mind when I joined our organIzation. But Im not going to kill any of my friends.

[Andy Cobern] You have an obilgation to ME now! You made a deal with me. Your son's life, for your services. Dont forget that I could just as easily go back to Chicago, take your son, and his mom, and drowned. Maybe even shoot em as well.

[Raph] You son ova-

[Andy Cobern] So I guess the answer is yes.

[Raph] Cobern, I swear to GOD!, you aint gonna make me kill Blain. I dont care what you say, what you do. Im in this back seat as well. We both got heat. I could end you right now. You could do the same. Im telling you right now. You cant make me kill one of my friends.

[Andy Cobern] Yo, Smith, pull the fucking car over.

[The car takes a slight swerve, going over a median. We get on the shoulder of the road. Cobern turns.]

[Andy Cobern] Dont think you're going to get any with that anymore Johnson. We had a deal, and even thought I dont want to hurt your son, Eddy, I fucking will. And we werent going to kill anyone. We were going to pick him up.

[From the front.]

[Josh Smith] Andy is right, Raph. We werent going to get anyone. Blain is on our side. He wanted to be along side you. We are only helpin you out, dog. Plus, we came up with a plan. Something you said a week ago.

[Raph] About what?

[Andy Cobern] We want to make sure you have custody of your son. We hired some of the top police officers to pay Jennifer Vidal a visit. They are going to find 15 kilos on pure cocaine in her car and 20 kilos of weed in her home. Shes goin away for a long time.

[Raph] When did you come up with this shit? I wanted to win my son in court the right way.

[Andy Cobern] Better let us handle this. Women always win this sort of thing. You wouldnt have a chance. Plus, there is always the off chance, that what you do could be made public. So when they see all the drugs that she has, she will be nothing but a junkie, and is unfit to take care of her son, and leaving them no choice but to give you sole custody.

[Raph] Thats crazy.

[Andy Cobern] Not really. If you dont do this, she may run off with your kid, and you'll never see him again.

[I thought about it, and the devil had a hold on me, he wouldnt let go.]

[Raph] Lets see what happens.

[Andy Cobern] Alright, Raphy!

[Fifteen minutes into the trip, we get to Blain's house and pick him up.]

[Blain] They fill you in, Raph?

[Raph] Yeah, they told me what was going down. It looks like it already going to happen. Lets see the sparks fly.

[Blain] Alright. Josh, its the 5th right.

[Five lights later, we reach the home of Jennifer. Inside, it looks calm. Josh Smith clicks off the head lights, and we just sit back and wait.]

[Andy Cobern] Any minute now.

[Sirens start to scream in the night. As seven police cars fly down the street. A SWAT van follows quickly, and five cops jump out of the car with a barricade. The run up and bust down the door.]

[Raph] What?!

[Ten or Fifteen cops enter the house. Five others go into Jen's Jeep Eagle and break the windows. They bring Jennifer out. She is crying. The police are using extreme force, and they slam her down on her car. By the time that happened, they found the drugs and began to yell at her, showing her the drugs. The SWAT found more drugs inside three small briefcases, my son is being carried out, by Detective Weller.]

[Raph] Stef was in on this shit too?

[Andy] Yeah, we all were.

[Andy Cobern gets out of the car, and sits on the passenger side, next to Josh Smith. Stefanie gets in the backseat wtih me and Blain. She hands me my son. He peel out, with the last image in my mind, Stefanie gettin the cuffs slapped on her, being degraded, punched, kicked. This wasnt what I had in mind.]

[Raph] Hey kiddo.

[He looks at me with a mindless look.]

[Raph] Now you mind explaning all this?

[Andy Cobern] Raph, just chill. Its all good. This is my way, of saying thank you. We have the situation under control. Its all been taken care of, there wont be any lawsuit. She wont fight it.

[Raph] That means what?

[Andy Cobern] We took the law in our own hands. Now, its time to do what we didnt to three years ago.

[Raph] So whats that? Take over the world?

[Andy Cobern] Correct!

[The scene fades at the Impala goes on the freeway.]

[eNd]

Hunter McKay. I've never heard anyone talk out of their ass as much as you. And boy, you have grown quite the attitude and ego since I've been around. All these claims of being a changed man or whatever. Haha. How many times have I heard that one before? Fact of the matter is Hunter, you can get as good as you want. You will never be better than me. In February, this bitch had the gull to call me ignorant. Let me remind you who you're talking to Hunter. Westside Raph. Not some punk. Not any of those bitches you seem to be so much better than. You're talking to Raph. What ignorance anyone else may or may not have had in the past has nothing to do with me. Got it? This fucker wants to call me ignorant when the best you could do was shoot what I said right back at me. Pull your head out of your ass McKay, this isn't childs play. Just like I said before, you mask your stupidity in a large vocabulary and hope to save yourself. Unfortunately, the last time we were in the ring together, I saw right through it. It doesn't take X-ray sunglasses either Hunter, when are you going to realize it? My career is built on destroying and exposing mindless losers like you, and you expect to get some second rate bullshit past me? Try harder next time kiddo. You even went as far as to claim that the World Title is already yours, Ha. How would you perform such a task when you're in the lower half of the card against Brian Lamont? Lighting strikes again with his supreme wit and knowledge! As long as i'm here, don't count on getting back to the top. You'll just keep getting knocked back down. Over and over, until you can't stand anymore. I wouldn't want to turn Mr. McKay into one of those guys who kept climbing back to the top and getting their fingers stepped on just before they reached the peak would I? Nah, that's not my style. Oh wait, what happened to Hunter McKay again? You were mere seconds away from victory with me, and just like that, I was in the Main Event at Eruption, winning the World Title. You thought you had me all figured out, when you dont know anything about yourself. You came that close, and I broke your dreams. I'll be glad to stomp you and your career down to mush. Yeah, what good is having a title shot, when you cant win the match? You couldnt beat me, and you still think you deserve to be the champion. Look who you are hanging around Hunter. You arent even the best in your own stable. You feel that you should be the World Champion. You have the nerve to ask for a title shot that you never recieved? This tag match should be interesting, as we will find out who will be in the BarbWire Elimination Chamber Match at Guilty As Charged. Ill make sure to eliminate you, and further shit on your miserable career. Please. Try earning it. Dont make goals for yourself that you know you cant achieve. You have found confidence in LL Kwik. I havent found confidence in Southside Shane. We'll see if we can make it work, and turn this into a succesful tag team once again. But Hunter, you need to stand on your own two feet, like you did a long time ago. Fact of the matter is, people have lost interest in Hunter McKay, in LL Kwik. They proved to be nothing in the ring. At least thats what I can say about Kwik. Hunter McKay shows true talents, and I wont deny that he came close to defeating me, but close doesnt matter. You may be relying on Kwik to help you get the win, while I wont be relying on Southside Shane to do anything. I will get the job done, once again, claiming another victory. The fans, they have given up on you. Don't expect them to forgive and forget your failure anytime soon either. As I listened to what you had to say, I noticed that you even had Evolution to fall back on. As if I ever wanted or needed a solution in the first place. Everyone's deep down goal is to be the World champion, and as long as I fill that role, vacantly, everyone's out to get ME. Just like you are Hunter. Dont you get it? You came at me. Evolution wants to take on another team, fall flat on your faces, then bring it bitches. Just bring it. It's my job to make sure bitch made wannabe's like yourselves never get to this rank. And I do a damn good job at it to. It's out of your reach Evolution. It has been for a LONG time. And it will remain that way. Fuck Evolution. I don't care if Evolution is against me. I dont care who aligns with you. You're still HUNTER MCKAY. Some things never change. Still the same idiotic kid, with a makeover. Influenced by intentions and threats of going to THE DANCE, you never were the smartest one. A follower. Sure as hell not a leader. Not a well suited one anyways. You think odds are important to me? I've been defying the odds since i've been here Hunter. Maybe you don't remember when I first got here. Everyone thought I was going to be nothing, just like the impression that is often imprinted on your head. But ever since that first day I defied the odds. You are just trying to find your place Hunter, I dont have that problem Get the fuck out of here. If this was wwe, and our future was written by politics, maybe you would have a shot. But your name means nothing to the people in sWc. Your name will not get you anywhere. Neither will your apparant skill of getting on your knees. Sorry Hunter, this isn't your average wrestling federation and Im not your average wrestler It's only a matter of time before you pack your bags and give up. Just like last time... Just like the rest of them... I applaud you on having the guts to try and outwit me and give it your all once again, knowing that you have lost the respect of the true sWc fan. That takes fortitude. Not to mention you have to be a bit stubborn. Hunter, I expected more from you. At least with Eidolon I was given a challenge. He kept me on my heels. All you did was bore me, and you did a good job at it. You didn't leave anyone wanting more. You didn't put a smile on anyone's face, or make anyone say "oooohh!!!". You didn't entertain. You didn't make many good points. You didn't capitalize on my faults. And most of all, you didn't change. So stop faking it Hunter, we don't want to hear it any more. Come out of your shell. I'm sure someone misses you. Defeat me? Too late. The war is over Evolution, and you've lost. Pull out the white flag and surrender bitches.
