**Soft candles light illuminate the scene. Their flames dance and flicker casting a mellow light over the room. Seated cross legged in a meditation position on a yoga mat is Summer “Pixilicious” Pyke. There’s no air con running and the perspiration is clearly visible on her face and body. She looks up calmly without changing her stance.
Pixi: Namaste.
Once again the Black hand is threatening woe and dire doom to all. Oh dear. Whatever shall we lesser mortals do in the face of such determined ire and wrath? Surely such ineffectual weakling have no chance at all. Surely we are destined for pain and suffering.
**She inhales deeply through her nose, holds it and then slowly exhales through her mouth to conclude with a gentle smile.
Pixi: Or maybe not.
You see, the Black Hand ARE very good at what they do. They ARE skilled and they ARE dangerous. And some would say that I’m not supposed to say that. They’d have me scream, shout and stand defiant against their assertions. But. Why? Why do all that? I certainly don’t NEED to. It’s an old adage, but one hat remains true: actions speak more loudly than words. My actions will speak for themselves once we all meet in the cage. I have no fear of it, nor them. That is NOT to say I do not respect their power and skills. I do. And like Rain I to have studied ALL of my opponents. I am prepared.
What I am NOT, is imitating.
The Alliance is nothing kin to The Black Hand. We are a defensive unit, of friends; friends that offer mutual protection. We aren’t running around screaming that we’re going to change the face of UPW. The simple fact is - there’s protection in numbers. The Black Hand wasn’t the first group to realise that, nor will it be the last. WE aren’t imitating anyone and the CCAZ was formed BEFORE the Black Hand; so why do they have this strange notion that ANYONE is copying them?
Deflection?
Guilt transference?
Misdirection?
Wishful Thinking?
Or just pure unadulterated hyperbole?
You take your pick. Ultimately it’s unimportant. It’s just another example of them buffeting the airwaves with their propaganda. Some may believe it. Most won’t. After all, it was really just a lot of posturing and shouting when you stand back and examine it.
This little Pixi is making no promises – other than I shall do my very best to win. I like fighting. I’m good at it, but for me it’s as much a cerebral as physical exercise. I continue to study, to learn – from the likes of Sun Tzu and Bruce Lee. It all helps.
So, to those that would oppose me I merely say this…
I am ready.
Shaanti.
