Act 1: A few Words
The scene opens on the little town of Sleepy Hollow. The town itself was done with pumpkins, corn stalks and a few cut outs of the Headless Horseman. Tourists made their way through the town taking in the sights around them. The camera pans to an all to familiar house where we see Denise sitting with Ambros on the black leather couch in the living room. Ambros is wearing a loose fitting shirt and shorts. He seems pensive his knuckles still bruised. Denise is dressed in a loose fitting shirt with a pair of black jeans. Her hair is tied back from her face. Ambros is sitting still but his eyes are like that of a predator contained in a small fitting cage. His face blank of emotion.
Denise: Penny for your thoughts...
Ambros turns towards her.
Ambros: Sorry... I can still feel the remnants of what VVC did to me, and sometimes the rage builds for no reason... it worries me...
Denise: I still can't figure out how they did it... I mean I had wards placed...
Ambros: Baalzebul, for his lack of an attention span does pick up basics quick and he had my father teach him tricks.
Denise: Of course. This is my fault... I shouldn't have left you alone
Ambros: Its not your fault, you would think the hospital security would be better equipped but the VVC do have numbers
Denise: True. They had a way to do this. But I managed to get you back. That's all that matters.
Ambros: Agreed, but sometimes... I don't feel it is safe to be around me. Like a pet tiger who is always hungry
Denise: I trust you. And that will never change... However there is only person that would even be able to help you.
Ambros: Who is that?
Denise: The Queen of the Darkside... Emily...
Ambros: At least I don't have to visit my father.
Denise: No. Emily is the Princess of Hell so whoever is in there she could pull out or command to leave.
Ambros nods.
Ambros: We'll have to plan a trip to see her then
Denise: You may want to wait to go and see her... We have a match coming up.
Ambros: Who are we facing?
She pulls out her phone and scrolls a little bit before she stops and rolls her eyes.
Denise: The Philly Air Raid. Two nobodies.
Ambros: I haven't heard of them winning any titles. Tag team or otherwise. They may officially been in more tag team matches than us, but we know each other far more intimately.
Denise: That's true. I think they are just fodder for whoever is using them at that time.
Ambros: I suppose we should send them a message.
Denise: If we must... I don't like wasting time on pathetic fools...
Ambros: We might as well give them an opportunity to bear witness to their reckoning.
Denise: True dearest. I've been in this business a long time, untouchable by most and only a handful have ever managed to beat me.
Ambros: Once you gt your teeth into a championship title it is most difficult to take the gold from you.
Denise: You are no slouch either. You held a title for almost the same amount of time as I did.
Ambros: 995 days before I had to relinquish it due to injury
Denise: Philly Air Raid... more like waste of time a day space
Ambros: Consider it a tune up for the real opponent in December Brian Kennedy for the world title.
Denise: This will be an easy match. I mean what have you two done?
Ambros: A cup of coffee in relevance and an eternity in mediocrity.
Denise gets to her feet and walks to the window as she watches leaves fall from the trees out front.
Denise: When you both are laid out in the middle of the ring you will realize what just happened. You crossed a woman that will be forever young and never fade away. Your names, family, and legacies will all fade and be forgotten.
Ambros stands and walks behind her placing a hand on her shoulder.
Ambros: Philly Air Raid, this is a brutal sport in which we all shed blood, but not all walk the path of greatness, some fall by the wayside lost in obscurity...
Denise: Greatness is never an easy feat to achieve. But we all know what's going to happen in this match.
Ambros: Best of luck to you two. Maybe if you recover you can try to make a splash in the tag team rankings with something other than your blood.
Denise laughs, as she turns around and puts her hands on his chest.
Denise: You can't hold a flame to us and you never will. You can try of course but you will fail miserably.
Ambros: We will give you the gift of defeat and from the ashes you can either wallow in despair or rise up stronger than before the option is yours but your fate against us has been written.
Denise: See you soon and Good luck, you're going to need it.
Ambros lifts her head to look into his eyes as he lowers his lips to hers he uses his free hand to close the blinds as the scene fades to black.
