Mastermind · (09-20-2024)

The camera fades in to just Mastermind sitting on a stool, not in the dark, but just sitting there looking at the camera. He bows his head and looks at the ground.

"My career has always been changing. Changing for the good, bad, and the ugly. But I know I can dream. Dream big, dream loud, dream proud, just dream. Dream of the times when I can be on top of the XWF, dream of times where I just keep winning. I hate losing. I hate being part of matches where I have to stand there and watch another loss go by.

"So I have to change the style of my career to fit in with my every day life. But sometimes, just sometimes you can’t predict on how it all seems, and on how it all comes out."

Mastermind looks up and looks at the camera. He stands up and turns his back as if looking at the wall, then he turns back around his his hands on the chair.

"I’m always feeling like this. It gets me down some days, it gets me up some other days, and for the most part, it just keeps me going.

"I have to see what is in front of me. I have to know what that is. But sometimes, just sometimes life and matches aren’t fair to me. So I have to change the fairness of my matches to suit me. I just want it all. I want the wins so badly. I want the titles so badly. But then it hits me like a bolt out of the blue, I’m just not good enough.

"What does that do to someone’s psyche knowing that one isn’t good enough. Well it pushes me to become something deeper, darker, and more personal. It pushes me to follow what I need to follow, it pushes me to go places where I shouldn’t have to go. The deepest darkest of me. Do you really think I should be struggling this badly?"

Mastermind turns back around and looks at the wall, and contemplates what he has to say next. He turns back around, and sits back down on the chair, and looks down at the floor, and he doesn't look up.

"Do you really think I should be beating someone else as badly as I being beat myself? They deserve it. I deserve better. It’s just it’s all to impossible to ignore.

"Big Preesh, the big man, the man who I shouldn’t even be up against, but yet I am. I don’t want to meet you, be in the same ring as you, be even close to you, because dude you stink the place up even worse than me.

"It has to be true, that the time will come when I beat you in the middle of that ring, 1.. 2… 3. It just has to be the truth. Will there come a time that after you I look more than at myself and ask for help again. You bet your ass that time will come, but not during our match."

Mastermind stands back up and this time throws the chair off camera, and he looks directly into the view finder of the camera, and speaks.

"I will tell you this of all things Big Preesh, your not going to hurt me, you are not going to beat me down, you are not going to leave me in a pile of pooh, because that is, that will be what I do to you. You won’t be able to find a way back in this match, because this match is mine. It has always been mine. It is what it is and it is time to show how easy it will be to throw you to the wayside and back.

"Listen to what I have to say Big Preese. I AM THE DEMONS OF YOUR DREAMS and I will be very brutal in the way I act towards you, because my TIME is NOW".

Mastermind continues to look into the camera as if he is angry. Then he looks away.
Then he storms off and the camera fades out.
