Short And Sweet

(The camera fades in to what appears to be a hotel room in a location unknown. There’s two beds, one made, one not and a TV in front of the two beds. Spread out on a coffee table is an alarm clock, a watch, some papers and sunglasses. Across a big table is a lap top, a couple CDs and a brown bag. The bathroom door is closed as the shower runs. It stops running and after a couple seconds, J-X walks out of the room, in a towel. He has still kept in shape it seems and he looks through a traveling bag on the floor looking for some clothing to wear. He finds a pair of jeans and an old beat up Guns N’ Roses t-shirt. He slips on the pants, without exposing himself, and puts the shirt on. He finds some old boots and also puts them on as well. He takes the sunglasses off the coffee table puts them on and then walks out the door. We now fade into the streets of a city where you can see J-X exit the hotel. He begins to walk down the street as people shout things to him. Some positive, most negative. He just waves his hand in the air to all of them. He turns down the corner and goes into a local bar. We follow him into the bar and see that the people in the bar are a little shocked by this rare appearance of J-X. He casually takes a seat at the bar and orders himself a beer. He takes out his cigarettes and lights one to calm himself a bit. He gets his beer and begins to swig on it as a bold fan comes up to him and pokes him on the shoulder.)

Fan: Hey, um...J-X...

(J-X turns to the fan.)

J-X: What can I do for ya’? Autograph? Picture? What?

Fan: Well no, although, that’d be nice. I was wondering, what you think of Beyond?

J-X: Heh, what are you...a fired reporter?

Fan: No...but...I mean, out of curiousity.

J-X: What do I think of Beyond?

(Fan nods.)

J-X: Eh...has some talent, I mean, you need it to get a belt around here, but he’s a new face around here, so he’s a tad vulnerable.

Fan: Well what do you think of what he did to Twister last week?

J-X: Well, I saved Twister didn’t I?

Fan: Yes, yes you did.

J-X: Well there ya’ go. It was cheap and sneaky...so he’s quickly, but it’s something Twister has done himself.

Fan: So you have no problem with Beyond attacking Twister?

J-X: I clearly had a problem with it since I did something about it last week, I just realize what he did it. You see, wrestling isn’t all fair all the time and any wrestler could tell you that. Sometimes you have to bend rules so things go in your favor. After all, wrestling is a solo sport.

Fan: Oh I see.

J-X: Look buddy, I don’t even know who you are, get outta here will ya’? I’d like to enjoy my beer and cigs.

Fan: Fine. What about that autograph?

J-X: Yeah...uh...rain check me on that one.

(The fan has a disappointed look on his face.)

Fan: ...Fine...

(The fan leaves finally leaving J-X in peace.)
