janusd 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2003 T-Minus Two Days Till SWF Twas The Fight Before Christmas The apartment of one Terrence "Janus" Bailey is as black as night. Almost all the blinds are drawn, and all the lights are off. The only sign of life coming from the statue-esque figure in the room is the rise and fall of his chest. With his arms folded behind his back,wearing a white singlet and pants, Terrence stands in the dark of his room and gazes out the only open window contemplatively. ~Two days. Two days till the Pay-Per-View. Two days till I put my body on the line to protect the Hardcore Gamers Championship...~ A pause. He half-smiles, the moonlight illuminating half of his face, showing one shining green eye as he shakes his head. Snow drifts down outside - so different from back home in Australia. That reminded him, he should go home for Christmas...but first, there was the Maori Badass to deal with. ~No, it's not about the title...it's about revenge. Va'aiga committed the ultimate wrong by betraying a close friend, much as I did in the past. I paid the price for it then, and I will see Va'aiga pay for it in two days.~ The seven foot monster continues to gaze out the window up at the night sky. The stars twinkle and wink at him, the moon casting its eerie light across one side of the giant's face. He slowly shakes his head again, turning away from the window and dropping the blind, plunging the entire room into darkness. In blood, sweat, and tears, the Maori Badass will suffer. I promise him that. Walking across the darkened room, Terrence lifts the cordless phone from its hook and looks at the illuminated pad, dialling a number. He listens calmly for several moments as it dials, and tilts his head only a little when a voice on the other end answers, the voice of a receptionist. "Dr. Frood's office..." "I'd like to book an appointment, on the 18th..." "Who is this appointment for, sir...?" "Terrence....Terrence Bailey." He can hear the receptionist gasp in surprise - no doubt she recognised his name - and she confirms the appointment. Slowly nodding and wishing her a good day, the giant hangs up the phone and walks back towards the window. He lifts the blinds up and cocks his head, casting the green-eyed side into shadow... ...and bringing into view a blood-red orb. He gazes up at the sky once more, then adjusts the blinds to allow a little light into the room before dropping them again. Turning away from the window, he looks down at his bed and the bag there - the plane tickets supplied for the Pay-Per-View. One green eye. ~I'll need that appointment.~ One red eye. -In case I get out of control?- Two personalities in one body. ~Right. He's not fighting one man in two days...~ Inhale. Exhale. And then, Terrence "Janus" Bailey speaks out loud, to no one in particular. "He's got both of us to deal with..." The shadowbeast calls, A vulture of life. Your worst enemy dwells From Within. ~ Arch Enemy, "Enemy Within" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
