PROMO: Sacremento Blues

Recommended Posts

“Sean?”

 

Toxxic is in his kitchen in Sacremento. The last few months have been good to the World Champion in terms of paychecks, and he found this place on the market at a very reasonable price. It’s also handy for the local punk shows, assuming he can find a band that doesn’t sound like a Blink 182 knock-off.

 

“Yeah, it’s Toxx,” the straight-edger continues. “Look, I know you took off early last night, but we need to talk.”

 

“...”

 

“OK,” Toxxic says, rummaging in the back of his fridge, “did you see the end of the show? Has anyone told you what happened?”

 

“...”

 

“No, I’m fine,” the World Champion assures Sean Davis, while wondering how long that will be true for, “but no-one told you what happened after I beat Andrea?”

 

“...”

 

Toxxic pauses, thinking about how to phrase this. And indeed, wondering if he wants to say it, because to say it is to concede something has happened that, 24 hours ago, he would have considered to be an impossibility.

 

“Silent’s back.”

 

“...”

 

“Nathaniel Kibagami,” Toxxic clarifies. “You know, the guy-”

 

“...”

 

“Yeah, I thought I did too,” the Brit says uneasily, pulling out a carton of orange juice. “To tell the truth, I don’t remember the end of that match. Believe me, I’ve watched it enough times, but I don’t remember it. I guess I didn’t break his neck after all. Which leads me to wonder,” Toxxic continues, taking a glass off the shelf, “just what the bloody hell he’s been doing all this time.”

 

“...”

 

“No,” the World Champion states flatly. “Not an option.”

 

“...”

 

“I said no!” Toxxic snaps, his voice rising. “Trust me, that’s not a good idea.”

 

“...”

 

“Sean, you don’t understand,” the straight-edger explains with frayed patience. “You’ve never been in the ring with him, you’ve never seen him up close. Silent is not a wrestler; Silent is a force of fucking nature! I beat him before because I knew what he was doing and why - we know shit this time, and we are not going into this blind!”

 

“...”

 

“No!” Toxxic shouts, spilling orange juice. “Sean, you’re a big man and you can look after yourself, but this is a totally different ball game! He was in the Clan! He is deranged, unstable and totally fucking psychotic!” The Straight-Edge Sensation manages to calm himself and puts the fruit juice down on his worktop.

 

“Listen to me. We do not take Silent on unless it is in the ring, where there are referees and cameras to record what he does and use it as evidence against him and, above all, rules. If you see him outside of an SWF event, you do not approach him. You note where he is, what he’s wearing and what he’s doing, and then you get the fuck out of there, you understand? There are ex-Clanees in the SWF - Chris Fury for one, and he has enough reason to hate you anyway - and I don’t want this demented son-of-a-bitch opening that up again. He could do it, if he wanted to. I don’t know where he is, I don’t know what his motives are, and I don’t know what he’s planning. Until I do we walk very carefully on this one, because Nathan is capable of anything.”

 

“...”

 

“Right. I’ll see you in Anaheim. A relatively local show, for once.”

 

“...”

 

*click*

 

Toxxic looks at the handset for a second. He knows, in the back of his mind, that part of what he has just told Sean Davis is a lie. He does know what Kibagami is planning. There can only be one thing that will draw the River Dragon back in.

 

Absent-mindedly, one of Toxxic’s black-nailed hands comes up to rub the back of his neck.

My prediction: Silent will forget he's returned.

Seconded. Maybe I should make a return too just to add to the ex-Clannite goodness!

 

....maybe.

 

Nice promo though, with Toxx worried - and rightfully so - that the Silent One is coming back and is not going to be a jolly camper. Bwahahahahaha.

Often imitated. Never duplicated.

 

Well-written and puts me over even more than I'd put myself over. This gets my official seal of approval.

 

K.
