OOC Note: Sorry I messed the inbtween scenes up cause I was playing around a litle, thought it would look much cooler. Heres a repost with any fancy stuff added cause real life calls...it may be easier to read.
(The scene opens in a dimly lit room. In the center of the room you can make out the shape of a television set….as the camera zooms in you realize that its two television sets. Two really old television sets with a smaller one resting on top of the bigger one. The camera pans up as the smaller TV turns on. An old OCW video from about 9, maybe 10 years ago begins to play. It’s the team of The Greek Gods vs. Extremely Dangerous. You see some good back and forth action until Extremely Dangerous gets the upper hand thanks to the speed and agility of Curt Canon and the power and force of James Vorex. The match continues for a few moments more than Curt and James hit their finisher the E2D (Extremely Dangerous Drop), winning the match and making them the new OCW Tag Team Champions. It was the first tag title reign for both of them; it was the jumping off point for better things. They were younger, stronger, faster, and more carefree. It was some of the best times of their lives….it was a decade ago. Just then the tape stops and the screen turns blue; blue like the infinite sky, blue like fresh life sustaining water, blue like the salty ocean, and blue like the huge SCW banners you see at all the shows. The lights in the room turn on and next to the white plastic covered couch you see Curt Canon sitting in a custom made blue and black wheelchair with his right leg elevated wrapped in about 14 ½ ace bandages.)
Curt *singing a song in his best Elvis voice*: “ Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine, Memories, memories, sweet memories”
(Curt then reaches down to the floor and picks up his double-extra-super-special-deluxe-out for a limited time-gulp and takes a sip of Dr. Pepper, when he gets down swallowing he puts the cup back down on the floor, stares at the blank TV and forms a thought.)
Curt: “Ah yes the good ol’ days. I remember them like they were yesterday back when I had two working legs and didn’t have to use this wheel chair for getting around. Back when I didn’t have a care in the world. Back when I was living young wild and free. Back whe….”
(A door opens and you hear running down the steps. In walks Curt’s best friend and former partner James Vorex wearing a pair of black jeans and a plain red t-shirt. In his right hand he has two six packs of PBR and in his left hand he holds nothing.)
James: “Beers here.”
(James walks over to the fridge in the corner puts the beer in it then takes one out to drink. He turns around and walks away and while he opens his beer he just stares at Curt sitting in his custom made blue and black wheelchair for a few seconds with a puzzled look on his face.)
James: “What the hell are you doing?”
Curt: “I was watching some videos.”
James:” I mean in the chair, what the hell are you doing in that chair?”
Curt: “Sitting. I didn’t feel like watching the videos standing up.”
James:” Yes I see that but why are you in a wheelchair? What is wrong with sitting on the couch?”
Curt: “Didn’t you see my match on Sunday? I broke my ankle”
James:” You didn’t break your ankle, you twisted it its fine.”
Curt: “That may be true, but I have a really big super important match this week and I don’t want to risk injuring it further.”
James: “I’m pretty sure you are more likely to injure it by trying to maneuver that wheelchair everywhere.”
Curt:” Not if I don’t roll anywhere”.
James: “ What about when you are hungry or thirsty…or when you need to pee?”
Curt: “ No worries I’ve gots all that covered brother man.”
(Curt then reaches into the pouch that he had attached to his custom made blue and black wheel chair and pulls out a walkie talkie, then shows it to James.)
Curt: “This is a direct link to upstairs, right to my mom.”
James: “You’re such a momma’s boy.”
Curt: “You are….now hand me my double-extra-super-special-deluxe-out for a limited time-gulp.”
(James reaches down and picks up the double-extra-super-special-deluxe-out for a limited time-gulp. He hands it to Curt who then proceeds to take a few quick swigs.)
James: “What were you watching down here anyway?”
Curt: “Only one of the greatest moments of our lives.”
James: “Graduation?”
Curt:” No, the night we won the OCW tag team titles.”
James:” Why do you watch that stuff. It was years ago we are different people now.”
Curt:” We aren’t that different James. Older yes…different no.”
James:” Maybe you aren’t, but I am. Things are different now. You shouldn’t focus on what you we were…you should focus on what you want to be.”
Curt:”And what is that oh great and mighty wise one?”
James: The SCW heavyweight champion. You are close. You are in the 5 way. Focus on that.”
Curt:” I am focused on that, why do you think I put that match on James? I feel like I lost a part of myself in these years away, and seeing Scott the other…….seeing what he has become, seeing wha….”
James:” You are comparing yourself to Syren?”
Curt:”He was like a brother to us James.”
James:”That was years ago, we are different, he is different. You saw him showing up 5 minutes after his match started and barley holding his own, he barey won that match Curt. You though, you have a real shot here. Don’t you remember what it was like when you won the title from Lurrr those years ago? You can feel that again, your not at slow and rusty as you think you are…and your defiantly not Syren.”
Curt: “You are right I’m not Syren, but I wanted to be, you wanted to be. We idolized him. We respected him, I still respect him. If it wasn’t for him we wouldn’t have made it as far as we did. I owe him James. We owe him, and having him in this match with me even though we are against each other is making me think about the old days and the OCW.”
James:” That’s great Curt, but what about the other three people in the match? You don’t think you have to worry about them?”
Curt: “I am not saying that, of course I am worried. This is my second match back, I didn’t think it would be so important so soon, I didn’t think I would get thrown into so quick, I didn’t think I would be wrestling a chick. That Alexis broad is kind of scary.”
James: “And hot, she wrestles in a bikini.”
Curt: “I know that’s probably going to distract me the most. I am so small that my eyes are almost usually always level with a womans….”
James: “Yeah I remember high school. You got slapped a whole hell of a lot.”
Curt: “True story, plus I can’t even hit her. If momma sees me hitting a girl she will kill me.”
James: “Or worse, she will kick you out.”
Curt: “She can’t. She won’t.”
James: “She can. She will.”
Curt: “Well it won’t come to that, because I have a plan.”
James: “You have a plan?”
Curt: “Yep, I am just gonna let Danger Dan and Ms. Prodigy go at it. I figure since he is a woman beating sell out and she actually proved herself and deserves a spot they can take each other out, plus you know all that woman power anything we can do they can do better kind of shit. “
James: “Sounds like a solid plan so far.”
Curt: “See I don’t need you to do all my thinking for me. While Alexis and Dan are going at it, I am going to take the fight to that British playboy philanthropist guy. If all goes well I should be able to get the upper hand with my speed then take him out and PRESTO!”
James: “You are forgetting about one thing. Syren.”
Curt: “I’m not forgetting about him, I’m just not thinking about that yet. I will cross that bridge when I get to it. I don’t even know when he is going to decide to show up to the match. The plan has one more small detail.”
James: “What is that?”
Curt: “You, I want you to come to the arena with me and be in my corner. I know you don’t want to be fully active anymore, but just do me this one thing for old time sake.”
James: “I don’t know Curt, I have been away longer then you and I never thought about looking back.”
Curt: “I know, but just think about it.”
(Curt picks up the remote to the VCR and hits the play button. The screen starts to get a little jumpy and you can’t really make out the picture so Curt starts to adjust the tracking. After a few minutes the video becomes focused and you see another old OCW video come on. Inside the ring this time is current SCW superstar Scott Syren and former OCW star SiLvErFrEaK double teaming a downed opponent names Scorpion. The beat down plays out for another minute or so when two more superstars join the fray to try and make the save on Scorpion. The two men are Curt Canon and James Vorex, they scare Syren and FrEaK out of the ring then help Scorpion up only to turn on him and hit him with the E2D. Syren and FrEaK jump back into the ring as all four men start working on Scorpion again Curt pushes the pause button and the video stops.)
James: “Seriously Curt, it’s not going to work on me.”
(Without saying anything Curt reaches down into the side pouch of his custom made black and blue and pulls out an old shirt. He looks at the shirt then throws it to James who catches it and unravels it, unveiling the B.U.F.F logo. James stares at the shirt for a while smirks a little then looks up at Curt.)
James: “I will think about it…..”
(The screen fades to black.)
