Sebastian Duke is headed toward the basement of the Compound. As usual, many thoughts run through his mind.
Would Silas leave now that Asmodeus was home safe? He had taken a liking to him. Much to his own surprise.
What would he do to Jonathan now that he was apprehended and locked up in the cell? Would he end his life? Would he torture him and allow Jonathans heart to give out on him? Or would he simply give Jacob the honors? After all, an eye for an eye, right?
What about Linn Kwann? After she stormed out on him after catching a glimpse of him in bed with Sarah Saint James in Atlantic City, he hadn't heard from her. Did it really matter to him? Yeah, he decided, no matter what she did before her arrival at the Compound, he did love her. He did want to make amends. He did want her to become his wife. She was good for him. She broke his shell. Linn Kwann had made it possible for the Brothers, other XWF competitors, and even XWF fans to see a different side of him. A side, at first, he was very uncomfortable showing.
It's Tuesday. Time to focus on competition, Sebastian. Warfare is coming.
He reaches the basement and heads through the only door at the end of the stairwell. Through the door lies the 'Dungeon.' It wasn't really a dungeon, but the Brothers had dubbed it so due to the various torture devices and the cells in the next room.
He stands in the center of the room and looks around at all of his various devices, inwardly trying to decide which to use on Jonathan first. That decision would have to wait. That time would come, but not now.
He hops up onto an old work bench and takes a seat.
"How I come into your mind when you look at a painting know as Fallen Angels, I'm not sure of, Chris Hartt. I am an angel, but not of Heaven, nor of Hell. I am but an Angel of Darkness.
"Allow me to learn you something right now! You're new here in the XWF, so obviously, you are unaware of just what the Angel of Darkness actually means.
"As the Angel of Darkness I lurk in the shadows...
"Watching...
"Waiting...
"Stalking my next victim...
"In this case........ you.....
"There are only two kinds of people in the world. Those two kinds of people are those that commit acts of evil... And those that will...
"In the Darkness, I stay, Chris Hartt.
"You might say there is a razor thin line between good and evil. If that is the case then I assure you I am that razor thin line! I stay in the Darkness residing on that line and swinging back and forth like a pendulum.
"Although, as I said, I don't believe there is good in this world. All evil. My job is to destroy all that cross my path. There is a lot more to the story of being the Angel of Darkness, but in the interest of time, I'll spare you any further details at this time.
"You mentioning seeing darkness in my eyes when you watch my work. Much like that painting you were staring at. How very astute of you. You see darkness in my eyes because I AM Darkness!
"You call me a Satanist. Your intuitiveness dies there. Though, you shouldn't feel bad about that. It's a very common misconception. What I do and where I profess my loyalty, is not of my concern to defend. All I care to say is, you are wrong.
"You can claim that my symbology I use on my gear is indicative of that, but again, you'd be wrong. Certain religious entities... namely the Catholic Church... through the centuries, have demonized such uses of this symbology to advance their own agendas.
"Through the centuries, they would demonize any other religious sect that they feared would jeopardize their own standing amongst the masses. Knowledge is power, Chris Hartt. Knowledge is power.
"Cast your judgments upon me and my Brotherhood as you wish. It makes no difference to me. People choose to believe whatever it is they believe. Nothing, except for knowledge, can change peoples' minds!
"You say their are others that have said you've had it easy thus far in your XWF career. Do statistics matter to you, Chris? Is your record more important to you than your own beliefs? Is your record more important to you than fighting for what you believe is right? In all of my battles here in the Xtreme Wrestling Federation, I have never cared for one second what my record was. For whether I win or whether I lose in any given battle, I fight. I fight for MY cause! I fight for what I believe in! I fight to right wrongs!
"Whether you have had it easy or not is not for me to judge. The only thing I can say is that if you have indeed had it easy, it just got one hell of a lot harder. Chris Hartt, you are facing Sebastian Duke! It doesn't get any tougher then that!
"I don't wallow and celebrate things of a dark nature because I think they're ideal. I live and breathe in the Darkness, because evil, Chris Hartt, is a cold hard fact of life! Evil lives in the Darkness... That's why I stay there. To combat all things evil. Eradicate all things evil. Exterminate all things evil.
"You might be out there to prove you are as good as you say you are. In fact, I believe you are as good as you say you are...
"The problem is, it's not good enough to defeat me. Not now. Not ever.
"Just for the record, there is no 'night off' for Sebastian Duke! Not ever. Even when I'm not in that ring showing you just exactly who your daddy is, I'm still fighting for my cause!
"Your biggest impact move, isn't enough. Your highest jump, isn't enough. Your most painful submission, isn't enough. Your hardest fight, isn't enough.
YOU, Chris Hartt, are simply... not enough...
"Chris, I won't just give you a run for your money, I will simply...
"Defeat you...
"Trust me!"
