Midway, along the path of our life...
He sat under the apple tree, guitar in his hands, playing some chords on that old six-string. Winter was here and it was here to stay. At least for some more days. The rain had come, washing dust away, and had gone away again. The upcoming days would be sunny, although a bit cold, and he was happy about that. He liked the rain, at least liked looking at it from the room’s window, as it repeatedly knocked on the glass, but hated the fact that it made it impossible for him to have his usual stroll outside of the Hunter villa.
Midway, along the path of our life…
We have to make decisions as we step out and walk in the road lying in front of us. Go out in the middle of the rain to have your usual walk, and get drenched, or stay at home in the warm and comfortable ambiance and grow bored.
Decisions, decisions.
Stay at home near your family, and lead a secure and relaxed life or go out in the wild of life and live your most impossible dreams, risking everything you´ve got to achieve everything you want. Well, he was a living example of the second choice and he did not regret one second of all the decisions he had made during his existence.
One had to risk something, to achieve something else.
Nothing good will come and fall on your lap, from above, if you just sit there in your secure and comfortable room waiting for things to happen. You just have to take risks, to achieve your biggest dreams. And he had done just that. Sure, there were things he had sacrificed to become the champion he was, but he didn’t regret the sacrifices. He was sad about the things he had to let go of, but he also was happy about what he had grown to be.
The winter gust played with the thin tree branches and also made it possible for the white clouds to swim in the endless cerulean skies. Everything needs something else to achieve an objective. White clouds need the wind, he needed his dreams and his opponents needed the just drive and motivation to face him and come out victorious.
He smiled, playing on that old six-string.
Playing the melodies that came into his mind and the melodies his heart wanted to play.
He had the strength and the iron will necessary to achieve everything he wanted to achieve. Could the same be said about the adversaries he had faced and the ones he would face? Could the same be said about the woman he would face at Supremacy?
Could the same be said about Rin Kubo?
The scene opens under cerulean skies. The camera then moves down, showing Eron Hunter sitting under an apple tree, with his forearms behind the back of his head, leaning on the tree trunk.
“Motivation is a powerful tool.
I have said this before and I will say this again, anytime needed, one needs motivation to achieve anything in this life, anything needing sacrifice and power. One needs to go that extra mile if one wants to amount to anything.
Especially if you are a fighter; a wrestler.
Especially if you are fighting the Junior Heavyweight Champion; especially if you are fighting Eron Hunter. You need motivation to come up as victor against yours truly. I am a champion for a reason, that reason being that I always go the extra mile; I always give it all in the ring and life, to achieve what I want.
It hasn´t always been like this, though. I´ve had others, highly praised wresters, laugh out on me and the mention of my name. Although I had won tournaments, although I thought I had proven myself over and over again. I´ve had others point out at me and chuckle. They thought Eron Hunter was not a challenge, not a fighter worth mentioning.
But I never got discouraged, I never gave up.
I proved all the naysayers wrong.
With courage, motivation, and perseverance.
And look at me now! Highly praised and recognized as one of the all-time greats, in this business of ours. The naysayers might act as if they do not know, they might act as if they ignore me, but I know for a fact that they are livid at the mere mention of my name. They are furious when they see me in main-eventing wrestling shows. They are fuming when they see I am the Junior Heavyweight Champion and that I have beaten great fighters to achieve this goal.
How do I manage?
I already said this, moments ago.
With courage, perseverance, and motivation.
I never slack off and I always do my best, in and out of that squared circle.
Can I say the same about you, Rin Kubo? I really wanted to say so; I really hoped you would storm the scene and make your voice heard about your upcoming match against Eron Hunter. But you haven´t done anything like that, no totally the opposite; you have been silent all this time. Maybe it is because you are training hard for this upcoming fight against yours truly. Maybe because you think that you do not need to promote yourself or maybe, just maybe it is because you underestimate me and think that I am not worth your time?
Is it so, Rin?
Do you think you already have this fight won? You are sure you´ve got it in the bag?
I would sincerely hope you do not think so; because if you do, you will lie down there watching the ceiling just mere seconds into our fight. But maybe it is because you feel you are the underdog and do not need to hype anything at all, just go out there and win this fight, thus making a name for yourself in the global wrestling scene…
…You´ve been the underdog for a lot of time and maybe, just maybe, being the dark horse suits you just fine. No high expectations for you going into this match, just another fight won before it could even begin, for Eron Hunter. But I disagree. I have been the underdog for far too long to underestimate anyone facing me. Especially if it is for a title…
…My title.
And you, Rin Kubo?
You are certainly not an underdog. Not with all your accolades. You have been ignored before and felt like being the bottom of the barrel, fight-wise, and you have mustered all the might and anger you could and have emerged victorious.
You know better than to disappoint those that put faith in you.
You know better than to let down the whole JRok family.
So, why the silence, Rin?
I do not know, I am just guessing here. But it also doesn´t matter in the end. All that matters is that I am here, motivated and ready to fight. And I am bigger, stronger, and swifter than you. If that isn´t a threat to you and doesn´t help you with getting ready to face me, then nothing will.
See you in the ring, Rin Kubo.
I really hope you can put up a great fight; one worth being part of the Supremacy Show.”
Eron remains in silence for some moments, as the scene fades slowly to black.
