The scene opens within the living room of the Carson residence, where Gerard sits comfortably on the sofa, thinking to himself as he usually does. The picture stays on the Florida State Champion and God of Live for a moment as the door of the room is suddenly swung open, crashing against the wall as Amy Carson steps into the room, holding a scrunched up piece of paper in her hand with an angry look on her face as Gerard suddenly turns his head to his sister and senses her anger, before immediately asking her about it.
Gerard: Amy, what’s up?
Amy’s mouth opens in shock, silent for moment before she suddenly snaps.
Amy: What’s up?! You don’t know what the matter is? You don’t know why I look so damn annoyed? Don’t give me that crap Gerard, you yourself should know damn well ‘what’s up’!
Gerard’s eyebrows immediately raise at the sudden snappy tone of his sister, especially with her bitchy ‘finger quote’ at him. He is quick to react to it.
Gerard: Whoa! What the hell’s your problem?
Amy: Oh no, it’s not my problem Gerard, oh, of course not…it’s yours! That’s right, you’re just sitting here and while you are, you’re pretty much just taking the shit that management is pulling at you!
Gerard: (confused) What? Are you paranoid or something? Why the hell do you think management are out to screw me over?
Amy growls and rolls her eyes as she slams the piece of crunched up paper she grasped tightly into Gerard’s palm.
Amy: Read it!
Gerard reads through it, darting around the page reading it quickly, and as he stops reading, he looks more confused as he looks up at Amy again.
Gerard: So…what’s the problem here? I’m defending the God of Live title against Phill Bennett, that’s nothing to be pissed off abou…
Amy: The fact is Gerard, you’ve been booked on Live for the fourth damn week in a row! I don’t know what management are doing in treating their dual champion like this but you deserve better! While undeserving men like Daniel Murph and that fucking poser Gunnar Brian are polluting the screens of Tuesday Night Turmoil, why does a man like you, who actually has talent, not get your deserved time on the main show?
Gerard: Amy, you need to calm the fuck down! Look, first off, I will be on TNT this week, just on commentary in the match to determine my next challenger for the Florida State title. Also, about those two guys you talked about who you think are taking up my TV time, now Dan Murph, however many times I have beat him and even more how many times he may deny it, he earned his main event shot at Ruined Fate, while Gunnar…well, yeah, he could be pretending to be psychopathic, but hey, if management think he’s good in the sense of entertainment value who’ll bring in the ratings, then let them damn well book him on TNT! The thing is Amy, I don’t see why you’re so damn angry about this? Okay, maybe I’m booked in a match on Live for the fourth week in a row, but is that an excuse to complain? No, it isn’t…
Amy: And why is that?!
Gerard: Because instead of complaining about it, I’m just going to get on with it and defend my God of Live title this week, hell, that’s what I’m supposed to do as champion! Besides, why the hell are you so arsed about it anyway?
Amy’s eyes widen and her eyebrows lower, her fists clench and she stares a hole right through her brother. She’s angry, and the words pour out of her mouth venomously, aiming right for Gerard.
Amy: I’m only thinking about you Gerard, I don’t know about you but I have no desire to watch you be underrated and overlooked in this company…look into your heart, you shouldn’t be holding the Florida State title and God of Live title of all things! You should be going for the top prize in this company, you should be competing for the PCW championship to earn a spot in the main event of Redemption and the undisputed world championship, not defeating less than worthy opponents in jobbers on Live! Think to yourself, a while ago, you said the world championship was your dream, and in PCW, you seemed so close to achieving your dream, but now…look where you are, look at what titles you’re holding, I wonder brother, do you even want to become a world champion?!
Silence fills the room for a moment as Amy’s impatience breaks it.
Amy: Well?!
Gerard: That dream will have to wait Amy…for now. Damn it sister, I’m proud of who I am and where I am as a dominant champion in this company, and if you don’t like it…then I’m afraid it’s just too damn tough ain’t it?!
Amy leans in close to her brother, the fury still shows and the words follow in the same tone.
Amy: …Oh I know you’re dominant, I know you have all the potential in the world brother, but just think about it…while you’re holding the God of Live and Florida State titles, just think, are they holding you back from what you are truly capable of…are they holding you back from becoming the champion you have dreamt of becoming…a World Champion…I advise you to think about that in your God of Live title defence this Sunday against Phillip Bennett, and trust me, when the time comes and you are able to rise higher than you already are, you will thank me…But for now, and for that damn cheek you just shown me, screw you!
Amy snatches the piece of paper from her brother’s palm as she turns around and stamps out of the living room, not looking back as she slams the door hard behind her. Gerard looks very surprised as he turns to face the camera.
Gerard: I don’t know what the hell her problem is, meh, must be that time of month again…(shrugs)…But seriously, I’m not going to take a word of what she says, I’m proud to be a dual champion, I have accomplished a goal that no man has accomplished in PCW and WPW in holding two championship titles at the same time and damn it, I’m proud of myself for that! Sure, I may not be in the PCW championship match at Everything Ends, but I can understand. For now, there is no need to hold any more gold and until the time is right and management think I’m ready, the main event scene is not my concern… however, my concern at the moment is my title defence this Sunday on Live against Phill Bennett. Now, I know I have defeated this man time and time again back in PCW, so this should be an easy victory right? The answer to that question is no, it will not. Now Phill, in the past, I know I have overlooked and underestimated you many a time, saying you had no chance in hell of beating me, and well, putting it simply, you weren’t able to defeat me…but that was the past, these days, in the present of WPW, after watching your performances over the past couple of weeks, you have improved a lot since I last met you in the ring all them months ago, and this time, I know that you should be able to bring a bigger challenge to the table, especially with the God of Live title on the line. This Sunday, like in my previous title defence matches, it’s up to me to go out to the ring and do what I do best in overcoming challenges and to do my duty in defending my God of Live title. However much you may have improved Phill, when it’s time for me to defend the title, there’s no stopping me from start till finish, until I have taken care of my opponent and I am standing tall as the winner of the match, I have a job to do and you better believe that I’m going to give it my best like I always do to make sure this title does not part from my shoulder. Phill, I hope you bring the fight, because you know yourself from previous experience that Gerard Carson brings a level of intensity to his opponents like never before, and although this battle with you this time will be tougher than previous encounters with you in the past, unfortunately, this Sunday, there’s going to be a Blast From The Past heading right your way when you experience another defeat just like you did all them months ago at the hands of the Phenomenal Force, the only dual champion in PCW and WPW history, and one day, hopefully world champion, Gerard Carson...
Gerard nods his head towards the camera, signalling for the feed to be cut as he sits back on the chair and looks up at the ceiling, obviously with the argument with his sister still making him wonder and ask questions to himself as the camera fades out slowly.
End Scene.
