The scene opens up in a room. There is a sofa in front of the camera and Lynx is sitting on it. He leans forwards, forearms placed on his knees, and takes a deep breath before starting to speak.
“ Jesse Jamester. I understand where you are coming from; I know where you are going. In this business of ours, a man of your tenure and ideas should know better than to trust others, especially if that same man comes from a failed brotherhood, called The Syndicate.
You know, I too like to be by my lonesome.
But there is something I have realized a long time ago…
..Even the most extreme of hermits is not a completely lonely man. Even the most excessive of loners are not entirely alone in this world. Even the greatest recluse of society has something in his heart which makes him company in his existence.
Just like I read somewhere, some time ago; Even the greatest Hermit of them all has a radio standing next to him, in the cave he´s spending his time in.
As far as the question about my identity goes
There´s only something I can say about myself
There is a virus in this company, and that virus goes by the name of “The Revenants”
Me?
I am the natural response of this organism to that virus!
Who is Lynx, you ask yourself?
Lynx is the entity this living and breathing organism called “NPW” has brought forth, to fight the disease that is risking destroying the balance which reigns supreme in this successful unit.
That’s all I can say.
That´s all there is to it.
I do not ask for your trust, Jesse Jamester, for trust is something that has to be earned, especially in this reality we are living in. Especially if someone is a fighter, like you and me. Trust, just like Respect, must be earned and cannot be gifted or imposed.
What I can say is that we have chosen to have each other’s back, in this upcoming fight. That´s all there is to it. You have my back, I have yours. That´s the entire entity of the reality we are facing. That´s all we both are asking from each other.
That´s all that can be promised at this moment in time.
We have chosen to fight, to get rid of the disease that is spreading around, and that´s the best thing a fighter can do. That´s all a fighter must do. We speak up our minds in these promotional videos, but when it comes to the ring, to the squared circle, words are silver but silence and actions are golden.
We have chosen to act.
That´s all there is to it.
Act against the Revenants. Act against Keith Williams and his thug squad.”
Lynx takes a deep breath and crosses his arms on his chest. Leaning back on the sofa he is sitting on, he remains quiet for some time, resuming his speech after moments of silence.
“Keith Williams.
…You have gone too far.
Your actions will have consequences, and not some of the kind ones. You try to bust people´s skulls open with a sledgehammer. You hang people as if they were sheep, and you have the insolence to appear on TV and send a message towards NPW, a message of war, and a message of disgust for the rules and order.
Well, Keith Williams and Goon Squad will soon see what it means when the wall you´ve hit, starts hitting back. There´s something called Karma, in this world, and there are some people who believe in it. And do you know what they say about it, Keith Williams?
Karma is a Bitch!
There will come a moment in time, in which your actions will start haunting you back, and that moment in time, Williams, is coming at you, sooner rather than later. I do not care about your philosophies. I do not care about your sob stories, if you have some, and do not care about your troubled past if there is one, that made you do things you do now.
Because when it comes to you…
..There is no empathy in me.
No sympathy.
No pity.
And do you know what happens when all this is gone, Keith Williams?
When all this is gone and done with…
…All that remains is Retribution!”
Lynx motions a cutthroat motion and remains silent for some moments. After which he starts speaking, now in a calmer tone.
“ There is a last factor I need to address, in this matter, and that factor is the special referee, Lord Dominicus. Now, LD, I have had your back on an occasion or two, yet that doesn´t mean I expect any favors from you in our upcoming match against the Revenants.
No.
All I expect is for you to call this match, how you see it happening. I expect honest judging from a fighter of your caliber, from a champion of your tenure. I also expect you to know that the Revenants will do everything in their might, to overcome the odds, and I want you to be ready for when this happens.
That´s all I want from you.
I do not expect you to take sides in this matter.
I also want to say something else…
…As a man who has helped with NPW´s birth and growth, I recognize the efforts of another one who has done, wanting it or not, the same thing.
And as two backbones of NPW, we will see it so that we deliver spectacular actions when the time is right.
That´s it, LD when time is right…”
Lynx stands up, turning his back to the camera, while the scene starts fading to black.
