Author: "The Sentinel" Gabriel Blade
Subject: The Fall of the Prophet

(Scene opens with a close up shot of the OWF divisional title. As the shot slowly pulls back we see that the title belt rests on a large stone sitting on the grass at the edge of field of corn, the individual corn stalks gentle swinging back and forth in the wind. The shot pulls back even further to reveal "The Sentinel" Gabriel Blade sitting about 10 feet away on another large rock, his knees up with his elbows resting upon them. Gabe is dressed in sneakers, a gray tank top, and blue jeans as stares at his championship belt, seeming deep in thought. So frequently it becomes time for man to reflect upon his future and his past, and as he prepares to do battle with "Lost Prophet" Eric Manson, it is once again time for Blade to do just that.)

Gabe- (without turning to face the camera) The OWF Title. That's what it's about this Friday at Blackened. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Because this battle will be about much more. There is much more than a few pounds of gold and leather at stake, and the fight will pointedly illustrate that with its intensity. For Eric Manson it is the chance to reclaim that which he never lost, to restore his Honor as Champion, and to destroy a protector of the people he hates. It is a chance to show the world that the Acts of God are a force to be reckoned with, and that their quest will be realized. (slight pause) For the Sentinel, there is much on the line too.

(There is a longer pause as Blade finally pulls his eyes away from the OWF title and surveys the horizon as he visually and mentally takes in the whole picture and ponders his upcoming war for what else it represents.)

Gabe- For the Sentinel it is time to prove his Honor as a Warrior, to show his worth as a Champion who won his title though Eric Manson never lost it, and to prove that had Manson still been the one wearing the gold, the outcome would have been unaltered. More than that, it is the chance avenge a fallen comrade, the chance to fight for his fallen friend, and to bring divine retribution done upon he who has struck out against his family.

(Sliding off the rock and onto his feet, Blade walks over and picks up the OWF title, then finally turns to face the camera.)

Gabe- Manson, you believe that this title belongs to you, that you are the rightful OWF Champion, and you want more than anything in the world to prove that at Blackened. You may be right that you never lost this title, but that does not mean that I didn't earn it, and it does not mean that I won't fight to defend it. (pause) You also believe that Michael Burke was responsible for the injury that nearly ended your career and your life. You believe that because he happened to be the one in the ring with you that he is the one to blame, that he struck out against you with malice and that your injury was the result of intentional harm, not tragic accident. You believe that his phone calls and visits to you in the hospital were not out of his unwarranted guilt and remorse over what happened to you, but out of his gleeful desire to inflict more pain upon you by amplifying your wounds, psychological and mental. You believe that, and so you lashed out at your perceived attacker. You assaulted him, you attempted to cripple him as very nearly accidentally happened to you. In short, you struck out at a man who never did anything intentionally to hurt you and who showed you nothing but sympathy, and you did it because of the twisted and evil view of the world that you have brought down upon yourself. This alone is a crime worthy of severe punishment, but that man who you struck out against happens to be my partner and my friend. In acting against him you have acted against me. I will not tolerate such actions, I will not allow you to walk this Earth unpunished, and I will see my friend avenged.

(Blade pauses again, staring steadfastly into the camera before changing tracks again.)

Gabe- But a friend's vengeance is not the only force that will be brought against you on Blackened, Manson, there is Justice that must be wrought. For your actions are against more than just Michael Burke and your crimes extend beyond your individual actions. Because you have seen to it that your evil has spread. You have unleashed the Monster Sin upon the world, guided him and controlled him with your evil vision, and you have brought into the fray along side him his Champions. You have assembled a wicked force and the Acts of God underneath you have committed terrible wrongs, wrongs that must be righted. And I am the man who must right them. I have battled your evil minions before, Manson, I have bested your Monster Sin in one on one combat. Now I seek to best the master. You are the leader of this evil endeavor and as such are guilty for all of its crimes. You are the source of this cancer that has infected the UWS and seeks to infect the entire world, and as such you must be eliminated. I will eliminate you come Blackened. And so our Battle will be joined with Justice three fold brought against you. (Holding it up) You want this title, Manson?

(Blade straps the title around his waist backwards, then swings it around to its proper position.)

Gabe- Then come and get it. Or try to, at least. Because I will not let you take it. I will show the world that I deserve this title, and I will stop you. I will stop you from being a Champion, I will stop you from ever again doing to anyone what you have done to Michael Burke, and I will stop you from leading the Acts of God to unleash more evil upon the world. You have committed many crimes, Manson, and Justice will be served. You cannot escape it any longer. Judgement Day is Coming, Prepare To Be Judged!

(Blade stares into the camera resolutely, his passion burning brightly before finally turning and walking off toward the horizon as the scene...)

(Fades To Black.)
