Caelius and Claudius are
walking through Sawyer Point, a park Cincinnati on the Ohio River. Caelius'
head is leaned forward and he appears to be in deep thought.
Claudius limps a step behind him scratching his bald head with wonder.
Claudius: Umm... Caelius,
shouldn't you be training for this match... it is the first in awhile and I
don't think you're ready for it.
Caelius: Do you ever leave me
alone. Can't you see I have more important things to do than
"train" for a match with a no name. I was a great here... I
don't need to practice for a match that I have already won! Now, why don't you
run along and find me a nice place to eat... I must think!
Claudius leaves and Caelius
begins to pace. The expression of thought turns to worry, then panic.
Caelius: What if he is right...
then what will I do? I can't loose this match, especially not to a guy
named Foxx. Hmmm... maybe I could begin training now... damn, I wish
I could get out of this (his face lightens) or maybe I CAN! Well, than
solves that... now time to get some lunch. Claudius, come immediately...
Montgomery Inn is just down this path... let's go get some ribs.
Scene cuts to Caelius and
Claudius walking into a magnificent doorway. The restaurant in packed, but
people begin to make way for him. Pictures on the walls are of famous
Cincinnatians such as Joe Nuxhall, Pete Rose, Caelius, and Anthony Munoz.
A host sees the two men.
Host: Oh WOW! Hey Char-
Caelius: The name is Caelius...
remember... I no longer go by that barbaric name... I am a civilized human
unlike all the rift-raft you let in here nowadays. Do you have the private
room available; you know I hate to dine with such trash.
Host: Uh- sure thing.
Hello, Cly-
Claudius: That name is no
longer. I am now to be called Claudius! We are from a royal line you
know, from the same blood as The Father of The Country
Host: George Washington?
Caelius: Don't be a fool... if
that is possible... Try Caesar Augustus! One of the last TRUE
Romans! Now Fetch me my table!
Host: Umm, yes sir!
As the host leaves, Caelius
reaches into his Toga. He pulls out a money clip and begins to follow the
host. They go up a flight of stairs and walk into the Brickyard 400
room. Caelius hands over a few bills to the host. As he walks off he
looks down at the money and sees it was $300. He smiles and runs off.
Caelius: Fool! (He looks
at the waiter) Slab of ribs... sweet potato, onion straws... I'm preparing for a
match against Brad Foxx... I have never seen him wrestle, have you?
The scene cuts as the waiter
begins to talk. It fades back in as the two men finish dinner.
Caelius stands and begins to walk out. He reaches the steps and trips over
his toga. He falls down half the stairs. He stands and look around
him. He sees Claudius who is laughing hysterically.
Caelius: What are you laughing
at you lame fool! Now get down here.
Claudius walks down the
steps
Claudius: I'm sorry... It just
took me by surprise.
Caelius: And so should this
He pushes Claudius down the
rest of the stair, crashing him into the many guests waiting for seats. He
walks down the rest of the steps, walking over Claudius and out the door.
He doesn't turn back. The camera follows him. When he gets outside
he is greeted by a news crew.
Anchorman: Charles, the
prodigal son returns, how have you been?
Caelius: That is no longer my
name! My name is Caelius... other than that I have no comment.
Anchorman: We are just excited
to see our hometown hero back. So can you tell us what it is like to be in
the HWA again?
Caelius: No comment!
Anchorman: What about the
newest finding in your life, the link tot he Roman Emperors... how has that
affected your life?
Caelius stares at the
newsman. The he holds his arms straight out from his sides and looks at
himself. He delivers a punch the the jaw of the anchor man and grabs the
camera. He lifts it high over his head and throws it on top of the anchor
man.
Caelius: Not in the least,
Claudius walks out and sees
the mess that Caelius has just gotten himself into. Claudius begins his
job of cleanup.
Claudius: There's nothing to
see here. Everyone just walk away!
He leans over to the
anchorman handing him a money clip filled with money and he does the same for
the cameraman.
Claudius:
This is for your troubles, injuries, and broken equipment. I hope that
this satisfies all your needs and that you will continue to love and honor the
New Caesar.
