Twilight is standing inside an empty ring inside an empty arena in an unknown location.
“Here we go. I was hoping to get my promo up before Emerson. But that it OK.”
Twilight looks around the empty place. Today I thought I would be different not talk about one of my past lives. Just talk about SFT a bit. When I first got to SFT I was in awe. So many people. So much talent. I always felt like I got forgotten. Lost in the shuffle. Lost in translation. It felt too big for me to have been part of. But it soon died off, just like Shadow did. Soon there wasn't much left, not more than a few people and memories. So many memories.
All those “rebellious feds” fell apart, as soon as we stopped caring so did they. We outlasted them and now they too have gone the way of dust. Nothing lasts forever. But somehow someway SFT has lasted and outlasted everyone. Only bad thing is there is no one else left to partake. But that's OK., we will go on for those who cannot, those who have moved on or passed on. Nothing lasts forever and sadder still no one lasts forever. we’ve all seen it first hand.
I myself do not think I have much time here either. Just this one last life, and if I mess up again. There is no coming back again for me. No more reincarnations, no more do overs. Just this one last life to live. For the first time in a long time I am scared.
But then I see Emerson come out here and he warms my heart. Good Ole Emerson. If this world had more people like you, well we wouldn't have all the problems we have. If everyone cared just a little, even the tiniest little bit like how Emerson cares, man, this wouldn't be such a bad place to live. You give me hope. You hear that Emerson. You give me hope. Hope that this world isn't going down the toilet. You give me hope in the human race.
Let me tell you a little story. We were in San Antonio last year for some Titans show. The day before the show I went to that grocery store you talk about, went in to buy some gatorades or what nots. And I see you walking through the parking lot. You had a small bag with you. A homeless person walked up to you begging for change. You spoke to him a little, about what I would not know. I would just give him change and keep walking, hoping he would leave me alone, like pretty much the rest of the world. But not you. You pulled out a plastic bag with 4 bananas and gave it to him then opened your wallet and gave him the bills you had in there, probably 5 or 6 bucks I am sure. He was about to walk away and you called him to your car, you reached in and pulled out a mcdonalds bag, the bum reached in pulled out a big mac and smiled. He would of hugged you I am sure, you touched his shoulder and heard you say “be careful out there” and you got into your car. The bum just stared at you, smiling. After you drove away he went to the side of the grocery store and sat on the grass like a little kid nodding his head talking to himself, he ate the burger like in 3 bites then proceeded to make the bananas go bye bye. I felt ashamed of how I was, so many lives and never learned any consideration or my fellow man. I went to the soda machine outside bought 2 canned sodas and went to the bum gave it to him and gave him a 10 dollar bill. The bum smiled at me too, told me “god bless you”. I shook my head no, no. In my mind I knew that I should have been doing things like this long ago. Jack used to talk about how Shadow would help out homeless people all the time. It made me ashamed how selfish and self centered ive been. How I have been that all of my lives.
Bottom line is Emerson. You are a better person than me, than all of me’s. But the question on Titans will not be who is a better person, it will be who is a better wrestler. And come Titans you and I will answer that question together.
