[The scene opens with a view of a dark room with barely any light entering into the space. We can just see the outlines of some furniture including a large desk, a king size single bed and a huge wardrobe in the corner of the room. We can notice that there is no wallpaper on the walls some expensive wooden flooring in on the ground
We notice that underneath a door on the wall nearest to us there is a slither of light scraping through. As we focus on this we notice muffled and yet incredibly raised voices from behind it.
Suddenly the door swings open and the light pours into the room. Into the room walks Non Compos Mentis in an infuriated manor. He is wearing a Miami Dolphins jersey and a pair of khaki cargo pants. He flicks on the lights to provide more illumination in the room.
After this another man, that we haven’t seen before, walks into the room and walks towards Mentis as if to try to calm him down. This man is wearing a smartly tailored suit and a light blue shirt.]
Man: Look…….Mentis…….Sean…….I didn’t mean that you shouldn’t have the title shot……..I didn’t even say that……..
Non Compos Mentis: You said that you Couldn’t believe I got a title shot……..That means that you think I aint good enough for it……..
Man: It’s a phrase Sean………It’s a phrase…….Trust me……..I didn’t mean anything by it……….Just clam down……..You scare me when you’re like this……
Non Compos Mentis: Ok……..I do trust you so I’ll let this slide………I believe you………So……..What actually brings you here Troy?
Troy: I came to see your first title shot………You know that I couldn’t give you a title shot when you were with XCW…….You weren’t popular enough……..you didn’t have the experience…….But now……..Now………You have put yourself in a position to not just take the World title……..or the North American title………but both………Sean……you have got to take this chance………
Non Compos Mentis: Troy, You were my first wrestling promoter……..You took me in off the street……..You know me better than anyone else……….You know what I can do in that ring……..
Troy: Of course I do Sean……..But this is bigger than any match you have had before……..you are fighting in the main event in one of the most impressive federations out there…….XCW might have been tough……..It might have given you the edge in the hardcore market……..but these two…….you have to respect them……..you have to realize that Slither and Ace Anderson are not like Buckshot Jackson and Jim McGraw and everyone else that was in XCW…….These guys are quicker…….tougher……stronger and more intelligent than anything you have faced before……
Non Compos Mentis: I know man…….I know…….I know that this is probably the toughest match I have ever had but remember one thing man………I asked……Hell…..I demanded to be put into that match and I must be doing something right because they let my in to it……
I made the PCW’s best run from me a few weeks ago…….Ace Anderson ran like he’s never ran before when I got into that ring…….Believe me Troy……..I have the chance to take the World Title and I will take it………
Troy: Well…….I hope you do……It could be a huge chance for you………Anyway…….
I’m glad to see you finally got your feet back on the ground……..You went through some very hard times and now look at you………Your in a nice house with all mod cons……….Not exactly the slums is it………..
Non Compos Mentis: Yeah…….its taken a while to get back into proper society but…….here I am…….of course I couldn’t do it without the pay from PCW……..$25000ish can do a lot for your social standings……….especially when you’re living on the streets………
Troy: Oh………I saw your little run as an arsonist and a housebreaker…..
Mentis: Now that was provoked……..you know how much heat there is between me and Ace…….It was only a matter of time before he blew it…….
Troy: He blew it……..From where I was standing it looked like you blew it……..Man…….You set fire to his neighbors wrestling gear……..you ate his caviar……….you even used his toiletries………Man……..you lost it and you lost It badly……….
Mentis: Ok………so I made a mistake………Everyone does……..
Troy: Not everyone makes the mistake of wrecking a guys house and then a week later burning a prestigious PCW trophy and nearly one of their Belts………Mentis…….I wouldn’t be surprised if the powers that be were keeping an eye on you……..I mean I took a pretty bold move last time to keep you in the job……
Mentis: And look what happened………I got a World title shot……..From being on the brink of being sacked to in the main event on nearly every show…….Troy…….It was the best move I have ever made……..
Troy: Oh…….I have to go……….Gotta catch up with some other guys……..
Non Compos Mentis: OK Man…….I’ll make sure I notice you at Deadly Intentions…….
Troy: Sean…….I’ll make sure that I’m there………Don’t worry…….
[Non Compos Mentis walks Troy to the door and waves goodbye as he hales a cab and drives off into the distance. Mentis then walks back into the house and sets himself down in a lush leather chair and turns on the LCD TV that is hung on the wall. He puts his feet up on an expensive looking glass table before settling down to watch the program.]
Faces from the past…….Troy LaGuardia……….My first ever wrestling promoter and the man that sent me on the path to recovery…….
Never thought I would see him again……..He tracked me down along with some of the old crew from XCW………Apparently he wants a reformation but of course I had to reject……..
Best laid plans of mice and men and all that……..I couldn’t do it……..Not with the title shot and all that……..
I cant just abandon ship like that…….I have my chance at greatness and I wont just ignore it………But he knows that……..He knows that I wont leave this chance…….
[Mentis brings his feet down off the table and proceeds to get to his feet and walk around the room for a few seconds before standing still in the doorway that appear to lead into the kitchen.]
He thinks I can win it aswell………So do I……….I mean I have taken on Ace and Slither before and held my own……..Hell I beat Slither……..But Ace……..I still haven’t got your scalp yet………And at Deadly Intentions I finally will……..
Ace……You tell me and Slither that we should just go home and leave you to collect your gold…………You say that we shouldn’t even bother going to the arena because all we are entering into is defeat……..
Well Ace……..Let me tell you something……….I will not go home………I will not just leave and let you win………..I will go to Deadly Intentions and I will fight you and Slither to the death if I have to because I am so close to my destiny that I can almost taste it………..
Ace…….I have tried to get to this level for so long………..And now I have I will not lose it so willingly as to just leave and walk away…….Ace……..you know I wont do that…….And yet through your extreme arrogance you indulge yourself in trying to convince yourself that me AND Slither will not turn up………
That arrogance that is totally misplaced and misdirected towards me………Ok Slither wont just give up his title but he doesn’t risk being thrown down the card if he loses……….As you have said Ace……..I am only here on a wing of a prayer……..I am only here In the main event because I actively put myself in it after an altercation with the Captain…….
But Ace…….Do not underestimate me…….I have had to work harder than every single wrestler in the company just to get this title shot……..just to get off the streets………just to get a damn job……..
[Mentis now walks into the large kitchen and to the rustic wooden table sitting in the middle of it. He pulls out one of the matching seats and sits down with his head bowed as if in silent respect.]
Slither……..I have nothing against you …….You have done more than I have ever done in my life by holding that title…….you have done nothing to insult me……..you have done nothing to try and embarrass he………For that I will graciously ask you to try and step out of the spotlight for this match……..Leave me and Ace to settle this one on one In the ring………Of course you wont listen……..you have to defend your title………..but take it from me……….You will get caught in the cross fire of one of the most heated rivalries that the PCW has seen…….Its just a shame that we didn’t get the chance to settle it One on One……..
But when I win that World Title……..Ace Anderson……..You will be one of the first in line to face me…….I know that……And I admit that you are one of the best PCW has to offer……..So maybe……..Maybe………We will get a chance to face off on our own………Maybe……We will put ourselves to the test in something a little more adventurous than a noDQ triple threat match…….
But that’s looking a bit far into the future………In the present……I have to get ready for the most important moment of my life……..I have to make sure that I am in prime position to take my Wrestling Career that one step further……..That step further that will define my life……..That one step further that will hand me my destiny on a silver platter……..Its just a matter of whether or not I take it…….And Ace you had better be sure of one thing……….My hands are already open and waiting for it………Its just a matter of time………………
[Mentis pushes the seat back and stands up slowly, still with his head bowed. When he is completely stood up he slowly raises his head as if in reaction to something.]
Just a matter of time…….
For I am Non Compos Mentis………….
The usher of Destruction…….
And Ace……I will Usher it upon you…………..
