Elisha · (12-19-2013)

I knew coming back to this forsaken place would not be well with my soul. I can feel the torment going on within me. It's a constant battle that appears to be never ending. I should have told Eli, "no". Why didn't I? I really can't even try to answer that question.

Going Back Memory Lane....

The lifeless and blood covered body of Eric Rex arrives in the back of a rusted pick up truck. Eli James IV is in the passenger side with a large grin upon his face, and Lacey Rex sitting in between Eli and the driver. No one around seems to care who is in the truck or what Eli is doing. They arrive deep in the woods by some barn with screaming coming from the inside. Eli tells Lacey to stay in the truck and to ignore what she hears. He'll come back to get her and take her somewhere she'll love.

The bearded driver and Eli get out of the truck, and drag Eric Rex's body to the door of the barn. Eric is slowly moving and awakens a bit. He notices Eli is standing above him with that grin on his face.

"Welcome home, Elisha.

"Wha. What? I told you for the last time, Eli. It's Eric Rex.

"Sure it is, man. Sure it is..... Eric.

"Where the hell am I? Why did you attack me?

"I attacked you? You're mistaken.

"Stop playing these mind games, Eli. Just be straight with me for once. Where am I and why the hell did you attack me? We just won the tag team titles!

"No. We did not win the tag team titles, Eric. Mystica and Elisha won.

"For the last fucking time, Eli. I'm..

Eric's mouth is taped shut by the driver accompanying Eli. Eric tries to fight them off but is still worn down from the previous match, and attack by Eli and Mystica. Eli opens the door to the barn and says, "Welcome home, ELISHA!"

The memories that had faded are slowly coming back to remembrance. Eli schemed up this plan that no one saw coming and turned my own best friend, Sal, against me. He destroyed the Academi.. one.. by.. one. He needed someone to join alongside him and Mystica to accomplish whatever it is those two have in store. Those bastards. Eli preaches something a little bit different than what Mystica does, yet they work together. I think they are both out of their fucking minds, and maybe that's why they work well together. Maybe that's why there is such loyalty between the two.

Eli hand-picked me to turn into this strange creature, or monster as he sees it. Why couldn't he just be satisfied with Mystica? Does he really see beyond the present? Maybe, just maybe, he saw Mystica turn on him and align with the Black Circle all along and used Mystica to create me. I'm now starting to sound like these idiots.

This could be why I don't completely trust Mystica. That piece of shit helped Eli beat me down after I just won half of the tag team titles. And I'm suppose to come back and be a tag team champion alongside this same guy? It just doesn't make much sense.

Maybe Eli is just playing with my mind. Maybe Mystica isn't going to join the Black Circle.. maybe he'll stick with Eli and they're whole plan is to fuck with everyone's mind until they become like me: an unstable creature that doesn't belong anywhere. I'm no longer a part of society. I hate the taste of cooked meat. I like it raw, tearing the meat off the flesh of a half alive animal. I like to feel it's last breath when I chew it's flesh. That's not normal. It's not normal at all. Eli fucked me up.

Eric is completely bound up inside the barn. Hammers, screwdrivers, nails, saws, knives, and any other sort of weapon that could come to your imagination were found inside. All the tools and weapons were unclean. Covered in dry blood, except for a few 'instruments' being used on a few other people in the barn with Eric.

The other people's heads are covered with some sort of black cloth. One of the people, a lady, is sniffing and trying not to scream. You can tell how much pain she is in. Her body is sweaty, scarred, bloody, and looks to be just warn down. Under her breath she utters the phrase repeatedly, "Obey. Sacrifice. Obey. Sacrifice." That same looping phrase can be heard by everyone in the barn except one person: Eric Rex. His head isn't covered and he sees everything going on. No one is there except 'victims'. Arms and legs bound... hanging from the roof like meat in a butcher shop.

Eric is asking who they are and where they are. No one stops saying the mantra. After 30 minutes, the lights flicker out for a few seconds then it goes pitch black. Screams are heard by the others hanging up. Eric is trying hard to get loose from the rope holding his legs and arms together. He's not sure what is going on. Eric starts screaming for help. The lights come on and Eli is standing right in front of him sweating..

"Did you say you need help?

"What the hell is going on Eli? Wh-Why am I bound? Why are these people bound? Who are they?

Eli always preach light, so why in the hell am I sitting in darkness for a period of time? Why am I being bound up by this psycho? There's more to him than meets the eye.

A preacher 'gimmick' is known everywhere. People roll their eyes when they see someone holding that gimmick and await for the big punch line.. or a slip up and then outcomes the people saying "I told you he was a fake!". I hate Eli. I can't stand the guy, but something draws me to him. It's a love hate relationship I feel. I can't argue his stance. He really believes what he preaches and that's pretty damn scary. That's why he's becoming known everywhere. It's why his name is on lips and not another 'preacher'. This guy is dangerous and people will just ignore it thinking he's another one of them, but I tell you he's not. I can tell you firsthand. These others hanging here can tell you firsthand.

"They are... of no concern to you. You should be concerned with you. You are against yourself and I'm here to fix the division. I'm here... to make ya whole again. Hehehe.

That laugh echoes through the barn. Without sound effects. It's eerie. Shit. The lights are back out and screams are going again.

Eric's mouth gets a cloth shoved in it and taped to stay. Eric starts to make noise like something is happening to him. Pain is resulting in whatever is happening and there's nothing that can be done. The lights are out. Screams are going off nonstop. Eli's laugh can also be heard like he's enjoying whatever it is that's happening.
