| || Flesh on Rock || [Foreward] Do you ever feel as if life is like climbing a never ending mountain? When it's a pleasant day it seems as if moving up the mountain is quick and easy... But then the bad days its as if the mountain is a sharp dagger waiting for you place your hands and feet in the wrong place. Though even through the cuts and knicks of the rock you continue to climb... The blood runs down your fleshy hands but you still continue to climb.. Because that's what we're born to do.. climb. To stop climbing is to admit defeat and to die... And we've been told all of our lives that quitting is the wrong way to go.. Quitters never win... Suicide is the wrong way out. And they're right on all accounts. I've been climbing in the business for over ten years now and I'm one of the lucky ones to have seen the top of the mountain only to lose my footing and go plummeting back down to phase one. A tragedy yes, but one well worth the pain and agony. I know I can succeed, it's only a matter of biding my time and picking my bones. [Scene] There's a crash at the door of the Sutton residence. The trudging of feet can be heard as Josh Sutton steps into the kitchen still covered from head to toe in blood and sweat from the previous night. His wife Ashley stands in a silk bath robe sipping a warm cup of coffee, eyeing her husband as he nods to her and then heads down the hallway and disappears into the bathroom. About fifteen minutes later Josh emerges into the kitchen looking like a new man. He grabs a cup and fills it to the rim with coffee, sitting down at the table with Ashley. Ashley: Congratulations on the victory, hun. Though... I am a bit troubled with what you did to his wife. I've never seen this side of you before. It worries me, baby. Sutton: I've never been this motivated.. I feel as if I'm a third of the way up the mountain and my fingers are buried deep within the rocks... and I'm slowly.. VERY slowly making my way up... but the earth is taking its toll. You can't expect the rock not to work against you. His wife Monica just happened to be working against me and to my advantage at the same time. It's the wrong place, wrong time scenario.. But I must tell you... Picking that defenseless little bitch up and dropping her on that clueless little head of hers was quite euphoric. Ashley: That's sick, Josh. What the hell has come over you... This bothers me, can't you see? I don't like this. I don't like what you're becoming. It's okay to be goal oriented Josh, but you're becoming obsessed... and I don't even know what you're obsessed with. Sutton: Obsessed? I've been obsessed all my life. It's past that now, Ash. Way past obsession. I'm in the stages of 'do or die'. I've been out of the game for far too long to just take the back seat. You know just as I do that I've always been a man of high stature. I don't take sitting back lightly. I like challenges, and Chaos Heat Zone isn't throwing them at me, so I have to draw into the minds of my opponents to bring out their very best potential. And last night The Hired Gun brought the pain just as he said he would, and I loved every damn minute of it. Call me a sadomasochist if you'd like, but it was fucking phenominal. Ashley: I just don't know you anymore. You don't talk to me. You're always spending time in your study. You barely even look at me of the mornings and I can't remember the last time we made love. Sutton: Go figure, the one time in my life that I want something for MYSELF you can't be happy for me. I've sat back for months watching the wrestling scene, waiting to pick my spot and during that time it has been all about us. Well now like it or not it's going to be about me and my wants. You can be apart of it or you can sit on the sidelines and sulk, that's your choice. I don't have time to deal with your whining at this point in time, however. So you make up your mind and get back to me on that. I'll be in my study. [Scene] You can hear Ashley continuing to scream at Josh, whom seems to be ignorning it as he staggers down the hallway and disappears into a room at the end. The camera changes scenes and we're inside the large study. Bookcases line the walls with no vacancies in sight. Large portraits of Sutton are on the walls, staging his entire career. To the left of the camera view is a large display case holding many different trophies and titles he's won over the years. Sutton himself is seen pacing back and forth mumbling incoherantly. The camera zooms in, getting audio feed. Sutton: She just doesn't quite understand... I don't even fully understand yet... But something inside me wants to believe that this is fate.. My destiny like a prophecy foretold in the ancient books. It must be my time to exceed the standards and push up through the glass ceiling that has held me down since my glory years in this sport. I once managed to protrude through the glass and soar high into the clouds but injuries plauged me leading to a massive downfall... The glass ceiling was of course rebuilt leaving.. it was almost like a window and I was on the outside, looking in. Sutton: I can't allow myself to slow down. I must keep the pace and possibly even increase the velocity at which I confront opponents. I'm still weak in my offense, but it's growing more with every victory that I grasp. The Hired Gun really gave me major hang time, allowing me to grip on to that higher rock. I'm barely hanging on by a thread to the rock and if I fail this week it could be the end. Sutton: Hardcore Hulin... I've waited this day since I arrived in CHZ. I've listened to you ramble on and speak your 'hardcore' propaganda. I laugh at your dismal attempts at extreme wrestling. I should simply take the words of THG into account and crucify you for being a dolt. You see Softcore Hulin, I too used to be about fun and games.. But those times are over. Your focal point is going to be your downfall. And in this situation no mind games will be needed; just sheer force and brutality. Professor Sutton is about to check you into the academy of extreme. Sutton: I'm going to teach Puroresu Extreme 101, The Essence of Barbedwire, and Chairs Usage and Style... All in one sitting. You of all people need to be direly cleansed in the currents. And believe me, you shall be. In the aftermath of Blackout, Softcore... The lights are slowly beginning to return... but on Wednesday, I'll knock yours right the fuck back out. Heed the words of the children... as they say... That my friends is the end. [Scene] The scene slowly begins to transition to a commercial for CHZ Wild then fades to black. |
