::The scene opens with a familiar setup. Lantlas is seated behind his desk in his blue suit. The lights kick in, and Lantlas clears his throat.::
Lantlas- There are two kinds of people in this world. One, the kind that learn from their mistakes the first time around. Unfortunately, the wrestling world seems to have quite a defeciency of these intelligent people. Second, and most appropriate for this time, the kind that keep on making the same mistakes over and over again. Tony Brass, case in point. But I suppose I should be grateful, Brass Section. Without you consistently making a fool of yourself by speaking, my job wouldn't be this FREAKING EASY! Welcome to Back in Blue, and isn't it interesting that the main focus of today's session will be the same guy as last time? ROLL THE CLIP, MONKEYS!
"I think that you might have a problem with that Lantlas guy, even if he can't satisfy his women."
Lantlas- Wow Brass, no wonder you feel so damn good about yourself. Between hanging out with the Byrd and this half-wit, you must feel like EINSTEIN IN COMPARISON! Of course, because my personal relationships outside of wrestling have everything to do with whether I'm going to beat the everloving shit out of you or not. You're a genius, Sean! You've figured me out! Just keep saying shit that freaking stupid to Tony Brass, and before you know it, I might as well be wrestling a retarded donkey! Now, moving on to my actual problem, Mr. Brass, let's analyze how you supposedly "satisfy your women"!
"I am more focused on me and my needs, I am to focused on watching some taped game on the TV and I am not willing to compromise with her because I feel things should only go one way, my way or no way basically."
Lantlas- Now there's a real man for ya! You've really got your priorities down! Damn her for thinking she's more important than some stupid fucking game that you've taped, which in contrast, means you can watch it ANY FUCKING TIME YOU WANT! But right, you're more focused on yourself, because that's what's important. Hey, she's really nothing more than an unpaid in-family domestic servant anyway, right? She's supposed to do everything for her man! Yet despite doing everything that your lazy ass can't figure out how to do, like turn on a stove or clean up after yourself, at the end of the day you can't be bothered to pay attention to her for TWO FUCKING SECONDS because a game is more important! And you're the guy telling me I NEED HELP?!
"Lantlas, even gave a woman an engagement ring only to be disapointed in the end of things. She just decided that she would cheat on him with some loser, wheather she really liked him or not. I guess the only decent thing out of the entire situation is the fact that she did give the ring back to him."
::Lantlas is visibly getting angry, and he smacks a coffee cup full of pencils off his desk and stands up.::
Lantlas- I see, Tony Brass, not only are you stupid, but you're IGNORANT AS WELL! It's not enough that you decide to tell me what I should do with my personal life, but then you CAN'T EVEN GET THE FUCKING FACTS RIGHT?! She didn't give me the ring back, you idiot! In fact, I believe I said that out loud. Actually, I believe that was the ONLY THING I said out loud. I see in addition to this, you're a psychic because you know what goes on in my dreams! Congratulations for knowing so much about my past, Miss Cleo! Get your money back from the Academy that trained you.
"Although, it does beg the question if this girl stuck around to see him in such a state as he was in, how we he have handled things, would he have tried to talk things out or would he have lost control of things and nearly killed her."
::Lantlas holds up a hand.::
Lantlas- Excuse me for a second, this one's going to take me a minute to figure out. I guess the first question I'd like to ask is between the two of us, which one has shown any sort of violence towards their women? I don't think it was me shoving the lady down because I'm so far superior to her. Despite what that girl might've done to me, I would never have hurt her. I could never hurt her. No matter what she does to me, I still love her. No matter how much the nightmares torture me, knowing I was never good enough for her, I still can't shake it, convince myself that I'm better off without her. See Brass, unlike you I have this thing called a heart, and it doesn't involve my reproductive organs. I guess you could relate it to how your girl feels towards you right now. After all, you struck her for no particular reason. Despite how minimal it might've been, the effect of the one you love showing violent aggression towards you hurts a lot more than the act of violence itself. Now, turn it around... Imagine if you had never done anything like that, and you had treated her the way the magazines say makes a dream. Imagine you did everything right and treated her like a princess for three years, and with no cause at all, you found her in bed with someone else. I know it's hard to imagine a time where you're not being the asshole in the situation, but try to think about that. Think it might piss you off a little? Think it pissed me off a little? Think I'm gonna hold back against someone who acts like you? DON'T BET ON IT!
"I have to deal with my own issues like a lack of trust that I have for females. I do not want them to get to close because I personally do not want the same thing to happen to me that Lantlas, had happen to him because I just do not know how I would react if some bitch cheated on me."
::Lantlas stares blankly for a few seconds, trying to calm down.::
Lantlas- What did I just say? You more or less just proved my point. But I think I see what this is. It's preventative assholism. Hurt them before they hurt you. Be a complete dick so you can ruin their lives before you become vulnerable and actually care about someone. What's your excuse for having a lack of trust in females, I must know. Did your mom tell you the truth, that you have a small dick and that's why she was the only option left for a prom date? Seeing as you don't know what it's like to have your heart ripped out by finding the one you love is cheating on you, and you're certainly not on the RECEIVING END of an abusive relationship, that's the only explanation I can come up with. That, or you're just trying to sucker me. Trying to make believe like you know what I feel so I'll trust you, and then you can take advantage of me, right? Because we're so much alike, aren't we? You hit women, I hit you... It all evens out in the end.
"Jennifer, I am back... Are you okay?"
::Lantlas slams his hand down on the desk, as if imitating hitting a buzzer.::
Lantlas- Yes Alex, what is "Dumb Questions Brass Should Already Know the Answer To!" for eight hundred. Eat that Daily Double, bitch. Wait, I must stand corrected. Was it not your tag team partner who said something along the lines about there being no dumb questions... Damn, I can't seem to recall it, ROLL IT!
"There is no such thing as a dumb question, however there is such a thing as a stupid question."
Lantlas- ... WOW! And I thought Brass was going to give me an anyuerism from all the stupid shit he kept saying. I really think you deserve a medal for that one, Byrd. The highest medal eligible in your field... THE CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF IDIOT! Seriously, with things that stupid being said, why should I even bother? You guys do a better job of making yourselves look ridiculous than I do pointing it out half the time. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have more important things to deal with than negative-IQ preschool rejects.
::Lantlas stands up, pulls off his tie, and leaves his office area.::
...
::The scene picks up back in the forest, where Lantlas has returned. He is obviously distraught.::
Lantlas- I remember when I used to walk with you, under the full moon in the middle of the summer. It always makes me laugh, because even in July, you needed a sweatshirt because you would get cold at night. The light of the moon always brought out your eyes, even as they lit up when you spoke of something you felt so powerfully about. You taught me about so many things, and it never failed to impress me how open you were about your relationship with your God. How it was so easy for you to believe that your life was in the hands of someone who unconditionally cares about you and watches over you. It must be nice to know that kind of peace.
Lantlas- See, peace is something I have yet to discover. I remember when you looked me in the eye after I explained what happened to my mother. I felt as if I could see into your soul, and what I thought I saw was a pure angel. Inside there, I also saw my heart. With you, I felt invincible, as if nothing could ever bring me down. Waking up next to you, stroking your beautiful red hair and waiting for those green eyes to open and look at me in the way only you could. I remember that look to this day, thus why I still cannot fathom what drove you to do the things you did.
Lantlas- I recall you saying that I was the only reason you were still alive. This, I still do not understand, because you had your religion, your family and the love and support of them, these things you took for granted but I knew nothing of because I never had them. What I knew is being with you gave me a sense of meaning, a feeling of strength that before that was a mere afterthought in the depths of my mind. I thought it was a mere dream, something we all seek but none of us ever really find. You proved me wrong on that, and you taught me to love. Then, you turned it around on me, and probably to this day still do not understand why I can't just get over it and move on like you could.
Lantlas- "If I were to die tonight, my life would not be wasted for knowing that such beauty existed in this world. Amidst all the violence and hatred lie the gates of Heaven in your eyes. As I lie on the top of a hill while the freshly rained clouds hover mere feet away, I watch my breath filter into the air. I close off my knowledge of what pain and tribulation my heart may suffer in addition to what it has, and I focus on the innocence of one too young to know of this real life we all must face. I long to know her excitement for each new sunrise, her oblivion to the outside world we all believe is so important. We spend our lives either in search of Heaven or trying to get there. I know that Heaven is to not know, because we're too distracted to sit down and look for the single cloud passing over lighter than the rest, reminding us that brighter things are to come. In the eyes of the girl I love, and in my peace with the sky, just before sunrise I have a moment to know I can feel peace. If I were to never wake again, the dream would last forever."
::Lantlas sighs, and holds back the emotion stuck inside him.::
Lantlas- I know you'd remember that if you heard me recite it. It was to be what I read to you when I lifted the veil from your gorgeous face and pledged my eternal love for you. When it became official, it would no longer have been a dream. Now, it is only a dream. My real life holds no love, no caring, nothing to really hold on to, but when I fall asleep, I remember those times. I also remember how you destroyed those times, and I can't help but wonder if there's more to it than this? It's no coincidence that about the time you did this was when my career took off. I stopped caring about anything and everything, and instead just tore through opponent after opponent. No one could stop me. Even when I won the world title, the first thing that came to my mind was if you were watching or not. Silly me, I knew you weren't. I know better than that.
Lantlas- That's why, despite everything, I hope you can forgive me for what I'll soon be doing. I cannot escape from my past, nor the heart that lies in pieces at your feet. Instead, it will be taken out on all those who lie before me. Slither, Majesky, Byrd, Brass, Chrissy, Maddog, and any opponents I face thereafter. The Elven Path is laced with blood and broken dreams, and I will leave each one of them behind as I progress. There must be the third and last dance, and this one shall last forever. I was told if you dream of the next world, you'll find yourself swimming in a lake of fire. As a child, I thought I could live without pain and sorrow. Love and Death are the two dances which make us and break us. This is the Dance of Eternity, and the Elvish Tale will be told.
