----------{Scene 1 }----------
Location: The Den of Iniquity just outside of London, England
Time: Several Days Ago
Off Camera
The scene opens on the Den of Iniquity a bar come club owned by my sister Jenna, my brother Max and myself on the outskirts of London, England. I'm dressed in a black “Staff” t-shirt with my Saints cut over the top, a pair of jeans and a pair of black leather Nike Air Max 90 trainers. The bar is packed out as we're having a battle of the bands which has proven quite a draw for the place and I'm working behind the bar. I serve one guy his round of drinks and he pays for his drink and I put it through the till and go to serve another couple while I quickly wipe the counter.
Chase: What can I get you?
Woman: A glass of Pepsi Max...
I instantly recognise the voice, hard not to considering she was my former fiancée. I look up and see her standing their dressed in a black dress and a black leather jacket with her dark hair drape over her shoulder with a slight twirl at the ends. I must stand there and stare at her as she blushes slightly...
Aeryn: It's nice to see you again Rob...
I stand there speechless just staring at her completely caught up in her radiant beauty.
Aeryn: You think we could talk?
I forget myself for a second as I just stand there smiling at her, trapped in the moment with all the memories I tried to keep locked away...
Chase: Sure...
I turn and signal to one of the other bartenders that I'm heading on a break before I pour Aeryn her drink and grab myself one as well. I head through the storeroom and into the staff room where I open the staff door to Aeryn and we take a seat at the large wooden medieval style banquet table which dominates the room, it has benches along both sides and several chairs at each end (my sister insists that everyone that works at the club should be social so one way to help this is instead of several small tables and chairs where people could separate in to small groups there's just one big table forcing people to be more social with other staffers).
Chase: It's nice to see you again Aeryn...
A smile comes on her face that could melt even the coldest of hearts... Well at least it melts mine.
Aeryn: I wasn't sure you would want to speak to me... I'm not going to pussy foot around... I know why you did what you did, I can't blame you for that...
I go to speak but she cuts me off...
Aeryn: No I need you to listen... I know what you left and I could never blame you for that. All you've ever done is tried to protect me and I go and do something like that... I can't explain what happened that night with Ryan but now my mind is free of the alcohol and the meds I know no matter what was going through my head, no matter what state I was in I would never cheat you on, that alone with your best friend... Ryan was like my brother and I don't know what drove him to... To do what he did... grief over losing Kensi... I don't know but I know I would never let something like that happen... You're the only man that I've ever truly cared deeply for and I would never allow myself to ruin that...
I run one of my hands through my head as I don't really know how to react to what she saying... She must sense that as she grabs both of my hands and holds them tightly in her as she looks directly into my eyes.
Aeryn: I know I can't make you believe me with words but I hope with everything we've been through together... You know I'm not lying to you now... I would never risk losing you cause you're truly the only important thing in my life and something I can't live without... I walked away from my family, I walked away from my friends because they didn't know what we have... Through everything we been through... All the pain and suffering... Through everything I don't regret any of the pain or the suffering... The only thing I regret is losing you... I know all you want for me is a happy and safe life away from anything that could hurt me... Even if that means you... But it's not a life I want... Cause I want to be with you... I don't care what anyone does to me as long as you're by my side... That's all I've ever wanted is to have you beside me... Through all the pain, through all the suffering, through all of the lose the only thing that kept me going is you... So I will do what I have to do to get you back...
she leans down and kisses my hand...
Aeryn: I don't care to live a fairytale life... Cause the only fairytale I've ever believed in is the one that brought you into my life and let me share my life with you.....
I smile and I don't know why but all I can say is...
Chase: I'm all about the fairytale babe...

----------{Scene 2 }----------
Location: Arena et Compagnie in Paris, France
Time: Current
On Camera
The scene opens outside in the staff parking lot of the Arena et Compagnie, I'm sitting on the back of a Harley Davidson Fat Boy Special. I'm dressed in a pair of jeans, black military spec boots and my black Harley-Davidson Men's Evolution Waterproof Leather Jacket with my Saints of Anarchy cut over the top and a black slouch beanie hat.
Chase: So welcome Paris, France for WCF Slam... You know I never have liked France, it could be the fact I'm an traditional Englishman and we've never liked the French or the fact that it just isn't my cup of tea... I suppose in a way it's pretty suitable for the Trios what ever the fuck it is tournament match that I'm in... Cause that ain't my cup of tea either... As many people know I really don't work well with other competitors... Mainly cause I honestly don't trust any of the them, I don't like any of them, I don't fear any of them and I sure as hell don't respect any of them. You see everyone in wrestling seems to talk about respecting the other competitors, they may not like them but there's mutual respect between them... To me that's a load of bullshit... The best anyone will get from me is that I can just about stand them... Respect has to be earned and to honest no one has ever truly earned my respect... Some have come close... But then they fuck it up and do something stupid like they always seem to do and I'm just back to just about being able to stand them... Some may say that it could be me that’s the problem... You know what I say... I tell them to shut the fuck up... I didn't ask for their opinion....
I smirk.
Chase: My whole life people always have been trying to push their opinions and beliefs on me... They seem to believe that just because they believe themselves to be better than me that I should bow down to them and actually take aboard their opinions and beliefs... That somehow because of who they are and what they've done makes them better people than me... Why cause of how I chose to live me life, because I choose to proudly wear this cut on my back... Because I refuse to follow the herd and play nice with people... You see a lot of people claim that the way I act... The way I speak I'm just playing a role... Trying to be something I'm not... The fact is they're the fake motherfuckers... Cause unlike them I'm true to myself... Now I know that may sound like some preachy karma shit but it's true... I've always been true to myself which is why I will never bow down and become part of the herd... I will do what I want, when I want and how I want to do and for what ever reason that chose... Hell I may just do it because I fucking well want to... People think that The Lone Wolf part is just some shit I made up... That it's just a fancy name I gave myself... The fact of the matter is I earned being called The Lone Wolf because that's exactly what I am... When it comes down to it I prefer to hunt alone... Why cause in wrestling the only person anyone can truly trust not to let them down is themselves... Sure you can believe in a friend or a tag team partner... But eventually they'll stab you in the back or cut your throat when you aren't expecting it... That's because this business is a cut throat business... In this business everyone is out for themselves... It doesn't matter what they try and force down peoples throats, they may claim or run their mouths about how they fight for the greater good or they fight as a group when it comes down it... If they're presented with a chance at success by themselves then they will trample over anyone and everyone to get it... If anyone else says different then they're just lying their arses off or they're too deluded to see the truth and they actually believe the bullshit they're spewing...
I pause for a second...
Chase: You see Wolves are one of the most loyal creatures on the planet, male wolves will live and die to protect their cubs and their mate. Wolves in general will do what ever it takes to look after their cubs... For me I'm the same I will do anything to provide for me and mine... I will do anything and everything to make sure me and mine survive... I will pull down the walls of a king's castle, I will stare into a monsters eyes and show them that as dark and monstrous they claim to be I truly am their living nightmare and I will walk up to a hero and smash their damn heroic skull in... For me there is no lengths I wouldn't do to protect my kin, my family and those that are loyal to me... Now I'm not talking about the wrestling loyalty bullshit... I'm talking about those that will stand by me and fight beside me all the way to the gates of hades and beyond... You see the way I live my life... Being part of the a motorcycle club has talk me loyalty is the most important thing we can show someone.... And I may be a Lone Wolf but outside of the wrestling business I am loyal to those that are loyal to me... And to those that are against me whether it's inside the wrestling business or outside will find out the rage and anger of the Lone Wolf is something no one wants to experience...
I pause for a second letting those words sink in...
Chase: You see my opponents this week have taken the same route that everyone in WCF has taken with me... That I'm nothing... That just because they have a few more wins than me that they're better than me... That they have the right to talk down to me... But what they fail to realise is that they are just stoking the fire of rage and anger that burns with in me... You see what they don't realise is that I don't die hard... I die hard cause there is no quit in me... Doesn't matter what people say or do to me I will never quit... Cause I know that not just in this business but in life in general there is no short cuts, I will take all the crap and lies they throw in me face, that I don't have what it takes to make it in this business or in life... But the fact is I have what I need cause for me there is no quitting... Survival means never giving up... Despite all the beatings, despite all the shit, despite all the pain and suffering... I never give up... Cause I know the stakes, I know what it means if I fail... And that’s just something I won't do... So they can say that I don't have the skills... That I don't have what it takes to make it... But they're going to learn a tough and painful lesson... There's no quit in me cause I die hard... I will survive...
I smirk again....
Chase: I heard what Terry Roberts thinks of me... He thinks I'm nothing but a joke... That I'm just some jobber but he'll learn just what everyone else has learned over the years... You look down on me, you think you're better than me, you underestimate me and it will prove fatal... Sure my records in WCF... But unlike his washed up arse... I don't need to seek redemption for what I've done... You see what he was around before no one cared, when he left no one gave a shit... And now he's returned no one gives a god damn rat's arse about Terry Fucking Roberts or his alter ego Synn... No one cares who he claims his parents are... No one cares how or why he came into the this world and no one will care when he fucking leaves it... Cause Terry Roberts is nothing but a damn sheep that follows the herd... He claims to be one of the WCF Old Breed... He claims to be one of the WCF Old School but yet no one that he talks about actually gives a rats arse about him... So he can talk all the smack he wants to the WCF New Breed... Because when he comes down it he's nothing but fodder... He's just simply expendable... I don't give a rats arse about the whole New vs. Old bullshit that seems to seeping around WCF... To me they're all just sheep following the herd whether they like to admit it or not...
I feel my phone vibrate signalling a message. I pause from speaking as I reach in to my pocket and read the message... I smile as I reply to the message before I slide my phone into my pocket...
Chase: As far as Torture goes the fool is nothing but a walking joke... He like everyone else around here underestimates exactly what I can do... And come Slam he's going to realise that what ever kind of monster he claims to be... The Lone Wolf will tear that monster down and reveal it to be just another sad and pathetic man hiding behind an illusion...
I smirk.
Chase; AS far as Quinn and Alicia Ikizi go... It's the same as last week they focus on doing your jobs in that ring and we won't have a problem... If you fail then we will have a problem... And to Gable, Torture and Terry Synn I've said this many time before but I want you to know exactly what you're stepping in that ring with come our match... You are stepping in with a Wolf that will happily tear your damn head off because it's not for business or personal but because he damn well wants to... This week you're stepping in the ring with me and I am the Lone Wolf... And I don't care who it is that steps in the ring with me... To me you're just the next thing to overcome and survive... So if any of you think I'm ever going to roll over and play dead because of who you or what you've done...
I look direct into the camera with a cold stare.
Chase: You'll be DEAD wrong... I've come here for a fight... I don't care if I win or lose... All I've every cared about providing for me and mine... So be warned when you step in the ring with me the biggest mistake of your life will be to underestimate me and think you'll be able to walk over me like some cheap rug... And the message that will be heard will be the one I send out every time I step in that ring ... I'm the Lone Wolf... So do what ever you want... Say whatever you want... It doesn't matter to me cause come Aftermath the hunt is on... And it's survive if I let you!
