One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

Here I sit back in my church the drones circling around also because of a lack of anything to do, I to have to admit a level of boredom from time to time when it comes to everyday life but all I have to do is wait and usually something interesting will come along… Sat here so long I get caught up in my own thoughts and its where I come up with my most delicious ideas… But before I get too deep into my own head I see the doors open at the top of the hall and Lorelei wearing her plaid skirt with purple corset on and Samael wearing his usual black jeans, black boots and black shirt walk in, Lorelei with a huge grin on her face starts to skip down the hall towards me with some papers in her hand…
Seifer: Someone seems to be in a good mood…
Lorelei: Oh you will be too babes when you see what I have to show you…
Seifer: Oh really now, what would that be…
Getting up to my chair she leaps onto my lap holding the papers next to her chest…
Seifer: Now now my dear don’t keep me in suspense, what do you have there?
Lorelei: Well you remember that crappy product that Colin Marshall used to make a weak attempt at humour?
Seifer: Yeah I remember…
Lorelei: Well we have done some digging around and we have found some little results on people’s faces from their latest batch of Shine grease paint remover…
She hands me the papers and I look down at a woman’s who looks like half of her face has melted off, a big smile cracks across my face and after a moment I can’t help but laugh…
Seifer: Oh that’s brilliant, you can really see how the product works to really cleanse those pores by melting them off your face…
Lorelei: Keep on going…
I look at the next picture and I carry on laughing at another woman who looks like shes been bitten about a few dozen times by a few dozen bees…
Seifer: And now with face swelling action, oh this is great isn’t it… I do hope he uses his own products because I would actually be able to laugh at something he does then…
Lorelei: I don’t know about that Mr S…
Seifer: Why so darling…
Lorelei: You had a good laugh before when he just talked…
Seifer: Yes that is true, nothing more funny than a fool fleeing from the dark and trying to insult it at the same time… So futile it’s funny…
I turn over another page to another picture and this time it’s a man where its damaged his skin so bad you can see the muscles underneath…
Seifer: Oh look here’s two face, I was wondering where he got too…
Both me and Lorelei laugh for a moment before I place the pictures down next to my chair…
Seifer: I will look at the rest later when I need a little cheering up, some of those where art you know we should get them framed…
I laugh again and I look out at Samael who was standing there with a smile on his face also…
Seifer: By Jove I think that’s the first time ive seen you with a smile on your face… Good job…
Samael: I couldn’t help it my lord…
Seifer: Oh no you can’t can you, those are a gold mine of comedy… I assume everything else has gone to plan…
Samael: Well we kept the man from last week but he again tried to attack the drones this morning to we had to tie him down…
Seifer: Ahhh yes our guest… Well if hes not going to accept our hospitality I think we should do something about that don’t you…
Samael: I was hoping you would say that my lord… I have something set up for you downstairs I think you will enjoy…
Seifer: Will I really… Well you have never been wrong before Samael so I will go see what you have ready for us as soon as I can…
Out of the corner of my eye I see Lorelei’s face drop a little, with a smile I turn around to her…
Seifer: Don’t worry my dear you can come with us this time…
The smile comes back across her face as soon as I say this…
Lorelei: Really… You mean it?
Seifer: Of course my love why would I say it if I didn’t mean it…
With a big smile she wraps her arms around me and gives me a kiss…
Seifer: See, good things comes to those who wait my dear… You will see…
I turn to Samael again with a smile on my face…
Seifer: Now then Samael I think it’s about time don’t you?
Samael: Whenever you are ready my lord…
Seifer: Good now get the camera, there is someone I need to send a message too…
As he turns to go and get the camera I turn my head back round to Lorelei…
Seifer: Would you mind my love sitting somewhere else a moment or two while I do this…
Lorelei: Of course baby…
Kissing me again she climbs off my lap and skips over to the pews taking a seat… I wonder to myself what Samael has concocted up for our newest message, I hope it’s something fun… After a moment Samael returns with the camera in his hand…
Samael: Everything is ready my lord, I have had the drones check things in the catacombs and everything is perfect…
Seifer: Very good, so let’s start shall we?
He lifts the camera up and switches it on and in a moment I see the little red light pop up on the front giving me my cue…
Seifer: The nature of good and evil is more than black and white. They are the darkness in our souls, Likewise they are the light. They dwell at human nature's core, and breed virtue and sin. They are the fundamental force, within the hearts of men. They fuel our greed and selfishness, our pride and vanity; they fan the flames of bigotry, inciting enmity. They also teach us how to love, and live righteous lives. This struggle between right and wrong Determines who survives.
I take a deep breath and close my eyes a moment tilting my head backwards and opening my eyes to stare at the ceiling for a moment before tilting my head back forwards...
Seifer: This is just the start; this is no mere idle threat but the start of something most people don’t want to understand because they fear it… This week just gone is just the start of how all your idols will fall one by one in front of the powers of doomsday… You don’t know it yet but I represent something you all don’t want to acknowledge, that being we all have that dark side don’t we… We all have that side where your mind goes too for the briefest of moments for most before your sense of humanity and your conscious pulls the strings of potential guilt to stop you from proceeding… We all have that hatred inside of us but from a young age we are told to accept others even with their flaws… Well another man had a theory and it’s the survival of the fittest… The heroes are weak because they hold themselves up to humanities judgement and that is where they fail… I answer to no man, god or anything else, I do what I want to do and my life is oh so much the better for it…
My thoughts go back to this week In mere flashes as the events of the end of the match are still a blur to me…
Seifer: Ahhh the purity of shock, isn’t this what you wanted? Isn’t this the me that you said I needed and now you cannot accept the monster that stood in front of you…
I hear Lorelei laugh from behind Samael, I look around him and wave a finger at her making her quiet again…
Seifer: Getting back to my point a lot has changed and many are yet to see the extent of that change but in time it shall come, in time you shall all understand the demons that dwell inside this world and inside this soul because I will show you it all and when the day comes you will have to stay behind me or get out of my way…
I look back down and catch a glimpse of the pictures on the ground that makes me laugh again…
Seifer: Oh here I am once again, preaching to the converted, lets talk to someone… Someone that will be once again a victim of Doomsday…
I stand up and take a couple of steps towards the camera…
Seifer: You see sometimes there is more to a man that meets the eye… Its human nature to look on the surface of something and assume you know what it’s all about from the start but sometimes you are dead wrong, let me give you an example of that…
I turn and look at Lorelei giving her a nod for her to follow us as we walked around and down into the catacombs corridors…
Seifer: You see a certain man on the face of it would tell you straight to you that he is not scared of me, that same man is another example of a person that is trying to hide away from the evils of their own mind because they are scared of the possibility… Hiding in plain sight and pretending to be the hero, the shining white knight of the piece…
We reach the next door as Samael stops and turns to it…
Seifer: We are here… Are you ready for this my dear?
Lorelei: Of course, I can’t wait…
I reach out and open the door to the same white room from the previous week but this time the man that looks like Marshall but unlike last time he is strapped by his wrists to a bar attached to chains from the ceiling hanging with his feet an inch or two from the ground and is dressed in Marshals ring gear…
Seifer: Oh very creative Samael…
I walk over to the man grabbing him around his jaw making him turn and look at me, he has a faraway look in his eyes and continuously muttering under his breath about nothing I can make out…
Seifer: He has truly lost his mind hasn’t he?
Samael: Yes my lord, as long as he has spent in this room it’s not surprising…
I laugh turning around back to the man…
Seifer: Does it scare you Colin, more and more people are starting to follow the words of the doomsday prophet, more and more are starting to realise the truth behind my words and are treating it as gospel truth, I have to admit I know not who messaged you before but they are right, my words speak to the darkest parts of a soul and only those with the strength to accept it shall survive… Clearly it scares you Colin, I know you have not been sleeping well haunted by the visions of your own past life… Why change Colin, you have a monster inside of you also do you not… Why not let it out? Why not let it guide you along your path… Come on it’s a lot more fun that way…
I look at Lorelei who is looking at a bunch of items on a table…
Seifer: Lorelei my dear can you pass me the blade on your right…
Lorelei: No problem baby…
Picking it up she skips over and hands me an ornate ritual blade made of silver and rubies…
Seifer: You make reference to me as a dark Willy Wonka mother fucker… You get this wrong Colin, I am nothing like him… I am the pied piper leading you all down the path of darkness with my sermons and song, I give people without purpose some purpose in their life so they can believe in something more than what they are, why would you persecute them for this Colin…
I take the tip of the blade and place it against his chest…
Seifer: That’s right, you mock what you do not understand don’t you… Don’t worry you are not the first to do so and I have no doubt that there will be others in the future, and eventually like those others you shall fall and burn realising the futile folly of the fight you are going to step into… All those pictures that you said doesn’t scare you, all of that will scare you soon enough when you realise that the man that you face has no problem with doing that to you if the moods takes him…
I take the blade point and run it down his chest slicing into the skin only taking it out when I reached his waist with little reaction from the man apart from a quicker and more panicked mumbling…
Seifer: You are right though, this will make or break you and do you think that you honestly stand a chance against me… I have risen higher than you could ever hope to achieve in this company you petulant little child, I won the Trilogy cup beating several of the best this company has to offer to do so and I took the world champion to his limits both physically and mentally and it was glorious…
I place the knife against the top of his chest again this time slicing the skin across his shoulder blade and down his arm, the blood really starting to flow now as the knife cuts through his skin…
Seifer: You know what makes me laugh the most though, what really gives me a chuckle is one of the things you had to say about me… I have the strength, speed and size to be the complete package but you can take more what you call lumps… Let me correct you considering you clearly have not seen me wrestle before last week, take a look back at my match with Orbit, he hit me with everything he had and I still came back with a smile on my face screaming at him to hit me harder, light tubes, barbed wire, thumb tacks and everything else we could get our hands on was used to make each other bleed and its still talked about as one of the bloodiest matches seen in many a year… It was a war and that is how I treat each and every match I go into, you think you are ready for the war Colin? You are not ready… You cannot be ready till you face it head on and truly realise how much your existence on this earth is worth…
I go around to his other side and start from his chest again ripping into his flesh across his shoulder blade and down his other arm…
Seifer: We do live in a world of good versus evil Colin, you are in the unfortunate place of being against the truest of nightmares made flesh, you are the hero nobody wants to be no matter if you are the real deal or not it doesn’t matter because at the end of days you are nothing but a scared simpleton with an inflated ego… You think your convictions to drive your own sense of self is anything compared to my own crusade, people have slaughtered millions in their own personal crusade and I have just started…
I walk around and pass the blade to Lorelei who places it on the table…
Seifer: Would you like to help my dear…
Lorelei: Very much yes…
We walk over to either side of the man as I place my fingers in the cut on the mans chest and Lorelei does the same and as soon as we got a grip we both pulled and with a massive sound of tearing of skin and flesh and a scream from the man himself and a scream of laughter from Lorelei as his skin peels off his upper body and arms and is left hanging off his waist like a ghastly shirt that got caught in his trunks his blood cascading down onto the ground like a fountain … I kneel a moment moving my hand around in the pool of blood that is forming around my feet…
Seifer: You see Colin, each time I do this it is to send a message, to show to you directly how far I am willing to go to achieve my aims, I am a man to be feared… I am no puzzle piece for you to fit into place; I am what I say I am… I am your end of days; I see it in the blood of the effigy with me… You shall embrace the demon inside of you Colin or it shall destroy you inside while you ignore it; release your demon Colin… It’s the only chance you have of beating me because the sum of every human heart is measured by this scale. It will bring life to those who learn, and death to those who fail. Without them there would be no light Or darkness in our souls, No thought of who, or what we are, No wide eyed dreams or goals. Good and evil form our centre, like the roots of a tree. They're human nature's architect, they are humanity…
I stand upright placing my hands over the man’s face closing his eyes with my fingers leaving smears of the man’s blood down his face…
Seifer: Through me the way is to the city dolent; Through me the way is to eternal dole; through me the way among the people lost. Justice incited my sublime creator; created me divine omnipotence, the highest wisdom and the primal love. Before me there were no created things, only eterne, and I eternal last. All hope abandon, ye who enter in the ring with me, pay heeds to these words for they are the words of the Doomsday Prophet Seifer Black… All those that ignore this gospel shall fade to black…
Stepping away I hold my hand out towards Lorelei who takes my hand and we walk out the room as Samael shuts off the camera… Everything happens for a reason I think to myself, it’s strange how the world works the way we the human race is with all its hostility… And I would not have it any other way…
Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time.
