We see Jack getting his gear ready. He will be leaving for the Titans event late Sunday evening. He is a bit excited about the match. It will be his first real test in sometime. And while he is feeling a bit nervous, he is also feeling confident. He finishes packing his stuff and sits on his bed.
Jack: You know it took quite some time for me to get over Candace disappearing and even to this day I still do not have any answers. Its frustrating and I miss her a lot. I wish I could talk to her, and find out if she is at least alright. But these are da hand I been dealt and I got to play dem till da end. What else can I do right? Nothing at all. And thats what makes it so hard. Being so powerless. No one likes to feel that way. And while I may not have any control over that situation, I do have control over something else. That being the SFT world heavyweight title. Which I currently hold. I control my own fate on that particular thing. And that makes me feel alright.
Jack stands up and starts pacing through his room.
Jack: I got two great and talented opponents coming my way. That being Emerson Embry and Louis Cypher. Now both men are certainly capable of winning the title. And both have the talent and experience ta be great champions. Infact both already have titles. Emerson I think holds the HC title and Cypher I believe has the IC title. So both are worthy enough of holding my title. But that don’t mean theyll walking out of Titans with it. No siree. Thats a cup and a jump and nothing comes easy in SFT or in life. Am I right? Yup I am. And I think they know it too. Now SFT may be thin in its ranks right now, but that changes in a heartbeat. People come and go and thats just da nature of this sport and life in general. So we do the best we can with what we have. I know I do.
Jack stops pacing.
Jack: First I want to talk ta Emerson. Emerson what can I say dat hasnt been said before? It seems like you and I came up together, though I know I been round longer den you. You have become a good friend ta me. And I appreciate all the talks we had. Da advice yave given me. Ya helped me through some tough times and vice versa. I appreciate all ya done and more than that I appreciate who you are. You are a class act. No lie. And I wish more people could be like you. I think da world would be a better place if even a small percentage could be like you. But just knowing that you are who you are, and you are around makes us better. At least for me. And if I lose the title and you end up with it, I will not be too upset. I will be a bit down but I will be happy for you. No one I know deserves good things than you. And I know you don’t get a lot of good things in ur life. But brother, you deserve it, you deserve so much and I hope one day things go as they should for you.
Jacks smiles a genuine smile.
Jack: Now lets talk about Louis Cypher.
His smile fades.
Jack: Louis you are quite the character. That does not mean that is a good thing nor a bad thing. But ta be honest its a bad thing. Your priorities are somewhat jaded. Your compass points south instead of any other way. I cannot say that I understand you cause I don’t. I cant say I can relate to you cause I don’t. Not many could relate to ya. I cant say that I respect you, nor can I say I don’t. I kind of fall in the middle when it comes to that. Hahahaha. Cypher you are who ya are. I guess thats just the way ya are, thats just da way it is. We gotta accept ya, what else can we do?
Jack starts to look around thinking he forgot something.
Jack: anyway guys that is all I really go ta say. Goodluck to ya both, goodluck to us all.
