Forward:
{It was serious now. It was dead serious. I no longer shruged off the threatens made by Knox but I took them seriously. Even if he was only trying to get inside of my head the fact still remained. I have my friends around for a reason, for a support group I guess you could say. Now he was threatening to hurt the support the ship that kept me above water. What was I to do? I couldn't be there forever for them. They would have to be able to defend themselves if it came down to it. But for the time being, I made a point of trying to be there for them as much as possible. It wasn't an option, it just had to be done.
I listened to the interview for what seemed like a thousand times and yet I couldn't make sense of it. For him to drop to such low measures to try and get inside my head amazed me. If his problem was with me, which it truly was, then why bring my friends into this? It was an act of a deserpate man. I was dealing with a desperate man and I knew the consequences of dealing with one of those. I have dealt with them throughout my carrer as a professional wreslter.
I admit my carrer is young. I haven't exactly reached my peak yet but someday I will and when I do it's going to be great. I just have to push punks like Knox out of the way to get to where I want to go. I have to defend and I have to fight, it is a good thing I am willing to do both at the same time. Knox doesn't know what he has done. He has made me mad, yes, but he has also made me aggressive which is something he shouldn't be playing with. When you play with fire you are going to get burned and come Ten Knox is going to get burned beyond all recongition.}

The scene picks up on a blusterly day in Providence RI. The waves are crashing along the shoreline and the seagulls are flying high in the sky. The camera pans the amazing view for a few minutes before centering in on a light house place perfectly in the landscape. Suddenly, Trent Townsend comes into focuse in front of the light house. He looks at it and smiles. He then turns back to the camera and grins.}
Trent: "You see Knox there are two things in this world. There are two types of people. There are ships and there and are light houses. You my friend are a ship. You are at the mercy of the sea and without the power and guidance of a light house you would be lost forever. I am a light house. I am the light house and beacon to which all of the WCF comes to. I stand tall, I stand firm and I radiate light that is blinding but very helpful for all ships. During storms the ships look for my guidance to get them through. The ships are always using the light house to get to shore. That's what you are. You are trying to make it to shore but you can't because I have refused to be your light house. So you are lost at sea and well, to be honest, no one will remember you. No one really cares about you. You're a disgrace you see. Your ship is in disrepair and it's ugly."
{Trent begins to take a few steps toward the light house as the camera follows closely behind him."
Trent: "Now I'm not saying you will be nothing in this Federation because you have proved your point here on Slam. You got your first victory and you should be proud. It was a tag match but still you got your victory. But that doesn't mean you are going to get the victory over me. The light house just isn't going to shine for you. You said you went to your dark place. That friends and family wanted you locked away because of the idiot threats you made towards my friends. {laughs} Well, I couldn't agree more. I think you do belong in a place like that where they take your shoes and you are forced to run around in little padded socks and can't have any toys with sharp edges to hurt yourself with. Where you are treated like a child because frankly you have acted just like a child. I wonder if your diaper needs to be changed or you pacifer needs to be cleaned."
{Trent continues his journey down the hill moving closer to the light house and motioning toward to.}
Trent: "Just look at it in all it's glory. You see that's going to be me in all my glory when I am threw with you on Ten. Your bloody broken body is going to be laying at my feet and I am going to be standing tall just like this light house."
"There's going to be blood on my hands but all of it will be your blood and like Lady Macbeth it won't come off. But that's okay because I'll use it as a reward. A remindered of how I beat you not one time but twice. I want you to feel the pain that I feel and I want you to know that it's never healing just like you will never fully heal after our match. You've pushed me to the limit and now I have no choice but to be myself around you and being my true self, pushed to the wall, is something you don't want to witness."
{Trent reaches into the right pocket of his leather jacket and pulls out a smashed packet of Salem Slim Lights. He pulls one of the cigarettes out of the packet and lits it up. He then reaches into his left pocket to pull out a can of Bud Light. He opens the can and takes a drink, holding the can firmly as he walks a few more paces toward the light house. The wind gently blows his hair in front of his face as he adjust it.}
Trent: "Knox, realize one thing about yourself. You're born to quit. You are full of shit. Everything you have put your mind to you have given up on. You are nothing but a quitter and at Ten you are going to quit again because you won't be able to take the pain I am going to dish out on you. You've blown everything in your life and the only thing that has saved you is your money. You're not like me and you never will be. You don't know what it's like to be me and too bad for you, you never will know. You'll never know what it's like to really work for something you want. I've worked hard for everything I've ever wanted and you've just used the green monster to buy and pay people off. You're pathetic."
"So you locked yourself in a padded room to mess with my head. Oh well too bad to say that didn't phase me at all. See I've been in a padded room for real before and I know what it's like. I know what it's like to have a hard time dealing with yourself but I made it through. I made it through by hard work. You just pretend to be something special. You make up scenes that will never come true just to dazzle the audience. You think you made an impact on me by being locked in a padded room? You didn't. Once again you failed. You fail at life man."
{Trent takes a long drink of his beer and a drag off his cigarette. He pauses for a few minutes, like he is searching for the right words to express himself.]
Trent: "You say you are going to break into my home when I'm not there because I can't be there all the time. You're right about that. I can't be there all the time but how exactly are you going to know when I'm there and when I'm not? Oh yeah I forgot. You have little croonies listening to every little thing I do right? You expect me to believe that? Knox you are such a liar. You haven't got shit. You don't know shit either. You don't have the balls to break into my home and if you ever tried I would kill you right there on the spot. I would get away with it too because I was just killing someone in self defense right? You think I'm joking but I'm dead serious. You better be careful what you say and what goes through that head of yours because it could get your into deep ass trouble."
"I think you underestimate Mike. He won't put up with your shit just like I won't put up with your shit. Mike himself could take you out because you are that less of a threat. You aren't a man and he could take you out with one hand tied behind his back. Remember Knox I know Mike and you don't. He's willing to fight just like I am willing to fight. And as far as Marie wanting to sleep with you? Please. Marie has taste. She sleeps with three people. Me, Mike and Torrie. That's all. See Knox we have a little thing called friendship and we respect each other enough not to cross the line and not to go outside our little group. And you won't be laying a hand on Marie because I believe Marie can take care of herself and she could probably take you down as well. Remember something Knox, I've been in the ring with you and I know how weak you are."
{Trent takes a deep breath, like he is getting ready to address something that is very painful to him.}
Trent: "Then you just had to bring Torrie into it right? You had to bring my heart into it. You say you are going to smack her around a little bit but you are dead wrong. You won't lay a hand on Torrie because she is the most precious to me and I will die fighting for her. If I have to fight the largest army in the world I am willing to do it for her. She is a true lady and doesn't like to be smacked around as you so plainly put. The second you lay a hand on Torrie is the second your life ends. I'll be the loaded gun at your head and when you touch her, bang, you're dead you stupid son of a bitch. As for your giant cock? Don't make me laugh Knox. We both know you were born on the short side and you just use money to compensate for it. And what makes you think Torrie would make love to someone like you? She is disgusted by you. Haven't you heard her speak about you? She may be worried but she isn't helpless and she knows how to defend herself."
"What makes mad the most is how you think all this is going to be done so easily. Like you are going to run over my friends like they are nothing. They are something. They are human beings and they have a sense of protection. They know how to protect themselves. I also am amazed at how you think I won't be apart of this. laughing Knox how stupid can you be? You're not going to cum on her and you're not going to piss on her. And she would never beg a two cent whore like you to screw her again. Torrie is a lady a perfect lady and you're just jealous that I have wonderful friends in my life and you have none because no one can stand you."
{Trent takes his time finishing his cigarette before he throws the butt on the ground and stomps it out with his foot. He then takes slow drinks of his beer, savoring every taste before he throws the can on the ground also crushing it with his foot. He walks and the camera follows him. He walks until he is right next to the light house. He reaches out and touches it and smiles. He turns back to the camera.}
Trent: "Yeah Knox you did succeed in something. You did piss me off. You pissed me off the second you put my friends in the mix. So that's just energy my friend. You want me pissed off when I face you at Ten? Then you got it. All that energy built up is going to come out on your like a flood. You've made the biggest mistake of your life. This match is going to end your career. So bring your knives and bring the best that you have because you are going to need it. You are going to need all the help you can muster up because I'm bringing everything I have to the table."
{Trent pats the side of the light house}
Trent: "Remember Knox, some people are ships and some are light houses. You're the ship and your ship is about ready to sink. You can't see my light because I've turned my back on you. You aren't a threat to me anymore. I'll see you at Ten my friend."
{The camera watches Trent as he walks away until he is seen no more. Blackout.}
{The camera picks back up with Trent as he enters his apartment shared with his three friends. Torrie is seated at the kitchen table with a dead bolt on the table. The dead bolt is out of the package and she is looking it over. She looks up at Trent and Trent can immediately tell she has been crying. Trent gets a worried look on his face as he closes the door behind him. He goes over to Torrie and places a hand on her shoulder. She starts to cry a little.}
Trent: "Torrie, what is it?"
Torrie: "What do you think it is Trent? We have to put this dead bolt on somehow and I don't know how to do it."
{She tosses the dead bolt onto the kitchen table.}
Trent: "Torrie, we don't have to put the dead bolt on for anything, just calm down now."
{Torrie gets up from the chair and goes over to the counter. She leans against the counter with her arms across her stomach.}
Torrie: "Calm down. You expect me to calm down. Did you hear what he said?"
Trent: "Yes. I heard what he said. I listened to it over and over and baby, believe me, you have nothing to worry about."
Torrie: "Yeah that's easy for you to say because you aren't the one he basically threatened to rape and then cum all over me. Piss on me? Trent, what is going on? Why is this happening?"
Trent: "He's just trying to get inside my mind that's all. None of what he says is going to happen."
{Torrie continues to sob.}
Torrie: "We have to fix that dead bolt. We have to get some sort of security system or something."
Trent: "We don't have to get anything. You're safe as can be. Now where is Marie and Mike?"
Torrie: "They're sleeping. They can sleep and I can't because I'm worried too much. He singled me out."
{Trent walks over to Torrie and tries to take her in his strong arms but she pushes him away.}
Torrie: "No, get away from me."
{Torrie goes into the living room where she sits down on the sofa and begins to sob. Trent sighs and follows her. He looks at her for a few moments before taking a seat next to her. He wraps an arm around her and rubs her back.}
Trent: "Nothing is going to happen Torrie. I wish you would believe me. But if you are so worried I'll take you to a hotel where he can't find you and you can stay there until the match is over. Because believe me baby, he won't be able to walk after I'm threw with him. So please believe me."
Torrie: "Trent I want to believe you, I really do. But I'm scared that's all. I'm just scared."
Trent: "Hearing you say that makes me want to kill him even more. Come here."[/font]
{Trent pulled Torrie closer until she was sitting on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her and rocked her like you would rock a baby.}
Torrie: "I don't need to go to some damn hotel room. I'm going to the arena with you during the match."
Trent: "Torrie, that's really not a good idea. The match could go backstage."
Torrie: "No, I want to go. I want to be there for you. You can't stop me from going."
{I sighed. I knew I couldn't stop Torrie from going to the show even if I tried. So I decided not to even try. She would be at my side and I would do everything to keep the match away from her. Just another thing on my mind.}
Trent: "Alright, you can go. I'll do my best to keep the match around the ring area. But promise me, you won't leave the locker room."
Torrie: "I promise Trent. I love you so much."
{I smiled and kissed her gently.}
Trent: "I love you too. That's why I'm reassuring you. That's why you stay in the locker room. That's why I'm fighting. I fight for you. Those things he said about you were awful and believe me baby, he's going to pay for each and every one of them."
{They kiss one more time as the camera fades out to blackness.}
{It's only days before the huge PPV Ten and I'm excited. I'm excited because I'm finally going to put an end to Knox for good. When I beat him a second time he won't be getting up asking for no rematch because he won't be able to and I won't be granting him one. I had a scheduled interview with Hank Brown about my match. I was ambivilant about it. I didn't feel like talking about my match anymore. I felt like I had said everything I had to say, but I agreed to it anyway. I found myself in a plush chair with huge arm rest. I sat there and looked at Hank Brown ready for the interview.}
Hank Brown: "Okay, here we are with WCF newcomer Trent Townsend who has found himself in a quite precarious situation indeed. Trent how do you feel about your prescence here in the WCF so far?
Trent: "Well, it's like this. I've had two matches here in the WCF and I've won both of them. I would of had a clean cut victory over Death but Knox had to get in the way. That's fine. It's over, that's the past. I'm ready to focus on the future and my future is getting over Knox at Ten and then going for some gold. Seth can't ignore me forever."
Hank Brown: "You sure are a rising star here in the WCF but what if you lose your match at Ten?
{I laughed.}
Trent: "I'm not going to lose. Like man power powering a ship I have enough fuel to beat him to the ground like the bug he is. He says he is going to bring out his knives and cut my skin and wear it around like some fucking over coat or something. That's not only disgusting but stupid. He won't have a chance to do that."
Hank Brown: "He does seem very serious about his threats toward you and your friends."
Trent: "Yeah, yeah, he seems serious but he's not. He's not going to do anything because he's like a puppet and I am the puppet master. I have him on a string and I yanking him around like a dog on a leash. He does what I tell him to do and he says what I tell him to say. He feeds off my energy. He has none of his own."
Hank Brown: "Is Torrie going to be accompanying you to the arena?"
Trent: "Yeah, she'll be there but she'll be safe in the locker room."
Hank Brown: 'What if the action goes back to the locker room?"
Trent: "Then I'll just kick his ass in the locker room. I'll kick his ass right in front of Torrie. He said some pretty awful things about her so maybe I'll put on a little show for her. I'm sure she will appreicate it. Maybe I'll even hold Knox up for her to get a few cheap shots in. Wouldn't that be a show?"
Hank Brown: "He says you can't ignore his threats."
Trent: "And I haven't ignored his threats. I just haven't taken them too seriously because I know they are all false. When I beat Knox for the second time then he will be forgotten about. He will be nothing to me anymore. I will forget him completely. Come Ten there will be nothing stopping me from destroying him. And that's a damn promise."
Hank Brown: "Well Trent good luck to you and thanks for sitting down with me for this interview."
Trent: "No problem man."
{I stood up and shook his hand. The camera faded out to black.}
