The Commanders assumption that the van driver was Thaddeus Duke became reality as the van rolled to a screeching stop and the Prince stepped from the drivers seat. The Knights of the Illuminatus Guard rushed to his side in order to protect him in the open air. Word was sent to the King and a result of that word, showed the King rushing from his office, through the crowd of Illuminatus men in the passenger compartment, to the door. Once at the door he stops and looks down toward the van where the Guard has surrounded his son.

Sebastian Duke, overcome with relief, bolts down the steps to greet his son. He bear hugs his kid.

”Dad,” the Prince begins through bated breath. ”Too tight. Can’t breathe.”

”You fucking idiot,” the King replies as he releases the hug. The duo makes their way up the steps and into the plane.

”I brought the courier,” the young man informs his father. ”He’s chained up in the van.”

”You brought me a gift!? You shouldn’t have,” the King says with a smile. Just inside the doorway of the plane, where Sebastian Duke always smacks his head, he tells a man about Thaddeus’ guest. ”There’s a man chained up in that van. Have him escorted aboard.”

The Duke duo heads back toward the Kings office where the rest of Thaddeus’ team awaits. The Illuminatus men shake the hand of the Prince as he passes by, most assuredly pleased that their worst fears were not realized. Once in the office, Ariana Valentina throws her arms around him but also yells at him in Spanish. Ramsey, the black man, is emotionless. He says nothing, he does nothing. Commander Edwards, while pleased the Prince is safe, is also furious with Thaddeus that he’s not in such hot water with the King.

Ariana releases her hug and Thaddeus approaches James who shoves the Prince into the wall. The King, quick as a cat, grabs James by his throat and slams him down on top of his office desk. The look of sheer terror is in the eyes of the Commander. ”You ever get physical with him again, I’ll have your head on that wall.”

”Relax people,” Thaddeus says, trying to calm the tension.

The King retreats behind his desk and takes a seat. Thaddeus, Ramsey and Ariana each take a seat. The engines begin to rev up and all of them put on their lap belts.

”Are you gonna get the hell off my desk or do I have to throw you off?” the King asks of James who still lies on the desk.

”I wasn’t sure I should move, sir.”

”Well I’m telling you to move.”

James rolls off the desk and finds a seat, buckling up just as the plane begins to taxi around for take off.

”Before you fly off the handle, you need to know that I did what I did and these people had no idea I was going to do it. You can’t blame the, for my actions.”

”I’m not blaming them for your actions, but I do blame Commander Edwards for not having his eye on you. If you’re awake, he’s awake. He sleeps when you sleep. It’s as simple as that.”

”I’d have found a way regardless,” the Prince begins. ”You don’t know what its like to be ready to go then have to sit and do nothing for a fucking week.”

”No, I do know what its like. The fact is, you’re the heir to my throne. You must err on the side of caution,” the King states. ”I’m convinced you had the best interest of the Illuminatus in mind, but we could have planned for it. Instead, you rushed out in the dead of night. You put yourself at risk with no backup...”

”I didn’t need backup,” Thaddeus interrupts.

”Not this time.

“What happens, Thaddeus, next time you sneak out and your team is unaware of your plan? What happens when things don’t go the way you intend? They discover the blades, or God knows what else? Don’t you think a wise decision would have been to include your team on your plan?

“Imagine, if you will, that scenario I just mentioned, where it doesn’t go according to plan. You’re stuck. No weapons. No nothing. You’re about to have your head removed from your shoulders. Yet you didn’t include your team so they can’t make a strike to save your ass!”


”I never considered that I might fail.”

”No, you didn’t.”

”Failure isn’t an option.”

”It’s never an option, Thaddeus. Sometimes things just don’t go according to plan. Sometimes you have to adjust on the fly. What are you going to do next time when they figure out your blades aren’t burnt skin? I don’t care how smart and tough you are or how well you can fight, Thaddeus. You are no match for a bunch of pretty bad guys wielding swords and automatic weapons.”

The King removes his lap belt and stands up. He paces for a few seconds behind his desk as the others in the room sit in silence.

”That’s why you’re out.”

”What?” he asks, not believing his ears.

”It’s over. You’re out. I can’t have you in the mix for this anymore. It’s far too dangerous, and you’re just too young to grasp the...”

”OH FUCK OFF WITH THAT SHIT!

“Was it too dangerous when we invaded Poland?

“Was it too dangerous to invade Italy and surround the fucking Vatican?

“Was I too young then? When it benefited you so you could continue to wrestle in the XWF, while I was with our men in the field being shot at and shot down. Was I too young to lead a fucking military to victory in not one but two wars?

“Jesus, man.

“Don’t pretend I’m stupid. This is you, the King of the Illuminatus, protecting the crown. Don’t pretend this has anything to do with protecting me!”


Thaddeus removes his lap belt and makes his way to the door.

”This isn’t over.

“And I sure as fuck am not out!”


Thaddeus slams the door behind him.

”The champ has released a new promo overnight.”

”I saw it.”

”Are you going to respond?”

”I don’t really feel the need to, but I can’t stop myself from pointing and laughing at someone’s stupidity.”

”So you are going to respond?”

”Of course I am.

“Let’s talk about Chris Chaos for a few minutes. I do want to commend him this week for neglecting the long and boring snippets from Wikipedia. I also want to commend him for not showing us Oh My God Facts for 15 minutes.

“Let’s begin.

“Chris Chaos is so bent out of shape that he’s being schooled by this green, prop at best XWF talent that he’s literally falling over himself while trying to get out of his own fucking way.”


”I have a question. If one were to have a plastic sword, why would one try to sharpen it?”

”Seriously, that’s what sticks out in your mind, Jim?

“Anyway…

“It is obvious to anyone paying any attention at all, that Chris Chaos opens his mouth, and figuratively inserts his foot at every turn. Thaddeus Duke is the stupid one yet your Universal Champion insists that the Xtreme title is one step above the garbage tin can titles like the Federweight or Heavymetal Weight. Here’s the reality, and you can ask Shane , you can ask Vincent Lane, hell you can ask Paul Heyman- the Xtreme championship is just a step BELOW the Universal title.

“You can make cracks about how I’ve just outed myself as ‘lower than you’ but let’s face the reality here. Chris, all that means is that after I beat you tomorrow night, I’ll be coming for you again and I will take your Universal title next time.

“Why would I want to face all comers 24/7? Because just maybe the people that pay their hard earned money to watch this company live and on television deserve a champion worth rooting for. I’ll be a great champion, unlike yourself. Let’s face it, you’ve been the Universal Champion since the middle of December and you’ve defended that title all of twice. You defended against Peter Gilmour, a man that has been around through generations of XWF talent. That’s fair enough. But he’s also not all that great. He’s somewhere in the range of McBride or Scully. There’s no doubt in my mind that I’d beat him and rather easily.

“You also just recently had your second defense and that was against Micheal Graves. Who I’ve already beat. Step up your game champ. You’re being outdone at every turn by the other champions this company has. You ARE a champion, but a very weak one. You not defeating Reno and Thomas Nixon in that triple threat awhile back is proof. Your inability to not take the fall in a match you most assuredly should have won against Crowe and Main is further proof.

“Champions don’t lose matches they should win. A real champion steps to the plate and says ‘hey Vince, how about giving me some tougher competition. I’m tired of beating all these inferior guys time after time.’

“Oh and I did rewatch your promo, just in case I misheard. It turns out I misheard. As it happens, you’re also still a fucking imbecile. While you didn’t say that I am top tier, you also didn’t specifically mention that I think I am. However, let me throw you a bone. No, I do not think I am a top talent…

“I…

“Fucking…

“Know it.

“You’re going to find out just how talented I am because I am going to win. You are going to bleed. You are going to lose.

“You think I’m guessing when it comes to you? You think you’re manic and sporadic and whatever else you call yourself and that’s taking me or anyone else off their game? I have news for you. I’m not blinded by the bright lights, I relish in them. I’m not blinded by the gold you wear. I see you for exactly what you are, a champion that is only champion because you haven’t defended it against a top talent yet. You’re a man that calls himself Chaos but doesn’t actually exhibit chaos in or out of the ring.

“Chris, you are a man that puts asses in seats BECAUSE you wear the gold. I put asses in the seats despite my not having it. Chris has eyes in the back of his head as well he should, being Universal champion and all. His eyes back there are catching a glimpse of a fish coming up from behind, but what he doesn’t realize is that fish is me. And it’s not a fish. It’s a god damn great white.

“Use this match as a fucking reality check, champ. You’ve admitted yourself that you’ve coasted due to booking. I’m no feeder. You’re not coasting through me. I’m going to beat you Chris. Use it as a lesson to not let your guard down. Everyone wants to see Reno versus Chaos? I’ll give you half of that. They want to see Chris Chaos. We both know Gabe Reno is so far in over his head against people like us. He just doesn’t have what it takes and he’s about the only one who doesn’t know that.

“Chris, the time is drawing near. You mock me for my age and my inexperience. You’re in desperation mode and everyone knows it. I don’t need to win this match. I feel no pressure. You? You’re the champ that’s been chewed up and spit out lately while barely skirting through some wins and taking some losses. All of the pressure is on you. You have to beat me, because if you don’t, you know I’ll be coming for you again. You have to beat me to remind the roster who the top dog is, because if you don’t, yeah you’ll remain the champion, but everyone is going to start doubting who it is that wears the gold. And they’re all going to smell YOUR blood in the water.

“You’re going to learn just who I am. You’re going to learn that I’m no feeder. You’re going to learn that I am elite talent. You’re going to bleed, Chris. You’re going to lose. My hand will be raised in victory and you’re just going to have to live with it.

“Oh, and by the way. That was a great Game of Thrones reference. So… Edge-y...”
