Scene: 1(Takes place May 22nd, 2012: Early Afternoon)
*Wind is heard blowing through seemingly a desolate landscape as we open up to see, at first, nothing but a desert. But distinct sounds can be heard in the distance as suddenly a voice sounds out.
Unknown Voice: Taste the fury!
*Our camera moves through the dust to a standard professional wrestling ring. Now it's not completely in the middle of the desert as you can see a familar house in the background, for those that are die hard HarKore Warrior fans, as this is an extension of Weapon-X & Viper's back yard. On one side are three men that you've never seen before unless you are a avid fan of the Arizona independant wrestling scene while on the other side is "The HarKore God" Weapon-X & the leader of the "Party Horde" Aleksei Koji.
Weapon-X: Focus bub this is serious.
*Aleksei was in the middle of fist pumping after hitting a front powerslam on one of the men but he halts after the stern words from the tag team specialist. Aleksei drags the man by the head to his corner & tags in X as in the center of the ring wearing a referee shirt we see a man not scene by wrestling fans for years as the former multi-time champion known as FireStarter who starts the five count that is legal for the two men to be in the ring together.
Weapon-X: Up top, Up top!!
*Aleksei goes up to the top rope as Weapon-X hits a back breaker on the man & then holds him with his left knee stretching him in what could actually be a submission manuever. Aleksei jumps off the top rope & as he comes down X moves his arms as Aleksei hits a leg drop over the throat that flips the man violently onto the mat. Aleksei rolls out of the ring right before the 5 count as X goes for a pin cover.
FireStarter: 1
FireStarter: 2
*The man kicks out barely which puts a smile onto X's face, as if he didn't want this to be over yet. X picks the man up, who's a bit smaller then X is (X is 6'1, Aleksei 6'5 as this man is around 5'9)but about the same weight as with the man trying to go towards his corner X grabs him. X spins him around hitting a jawbreaker, which staggers him, as he then tags in Aleksei.
Weapon-X: The move we practiced. Possible team finisher!!
*FireStarter starts the five count as Aleksei, who again is the taller man of the team, grabs the opponent so the opponent is sideways across Aleksei's chest. Aleksei powers him up & over his head, like Scott Hall used to do, but instead of the opponent dropping to the ground Weapon-X is kneeling behind Aleksei so that he CATCHES him over his back. X then stands up & hits a Death Valley Driver onto the man as he quickly rolls out of the ring before the five count for Aleksei to make the pin cover.
FireStarter: 1
FireStarter: 2
FireStarter: 3!!!!
*It's clear that we came in half way through this exhibition match, since the other two men are sweaty as well as breathing heavy, as the older Weapon-X feels his back as he then starts to clap towards Aleksei.
Weapon-X: I may have to put on some weight to be able to catch the heavier guys in SCW but I think that'd be a sweet looking finisher for us. All we gotta do now is have a name for it.
Aleksei: HARDCORE PARTY CRASHER!...or umm the ALEKSEI X SPECIAL!...or PARTY HARD..HIT HARDER!!
*X grunts at his partner's suggestions, not making it clear if he's against them or for them, as we see Viper walking along a path with her younger sister Sinnomon both holding bottles of Propel vitamin water.
Viper: You guys done yet? It's not going to be weeks until this is revealed & your already training to be a team.
Weapon-X: I strive for the best love & to be the best you need to train.
FireStarter: We didn't train that much as a team before we won the CWA World Heavyweight Tag Team Championship titles though.
Weapon-X: Yes but you carried the team back then Erik. I was young, dumb & only a brawler but times have changed. Aleksei here is a interesting but talented up & comer. The both of us have decided this teaming would be great for us, the SCW tag team division & the fans.
FireStarter: How did the two of you get hooked up though?
Weapon-X: That's not important now.
Aleksei: Yeah, we should focus on Sinful Obsession. Those guys already think they have the match won.
Weapon-X: Their tough but we're going to be tougher. I want you to know something Aleksei.
Aleksei: That you find my accent sexy?
Weapon-X: No bub can we be serious for a moment.
Aleksei: So it bup like your pet name for me...because I don’t have one for you yet.
Weapon-X: (shaking his head but moving on anyways) In the span of over 17 years I've let few people into my family. FireStarter was the first & he ended up marring Viper's younger sister so you see once The HarKore Warriors have a hold of you it's hard to let us go.
Aleksei: If someone is going to hold me...can it be your wifes sister....or perhaps she has a hot cousin that
Weapon-X: None that aren't in jail.
Aleksei: Well I do love a challenge.
Weapon-X: The fans love you but in a different way then they love me. They may not understand at first how in the hell we can co-exist but our actions in the ring will reveal the truth of the matter. Your one of us now for better or for worse. And with the NWA situation still brewing I told you when we started some negatives may come out of this for you like it did for RJ Harris. Between FireStarter & RJ is the majority of why I am who I am today. But my striving for the truth gets those politically minded or used to getting their way p*ssed so they may target you to get to me. A couple months ago RJ said some positive things about me & we even had planned after I won the NWA World Heavyweight Championship in ICW this month & he was to win the NWA World Television Championship to have a reunion of Honor Bound. Someone in the front office got wind of it so EVEN THOUGH he won the triple threat match in PRA to become the number 1 contender for the NWA World Television Championship title a rematch was ordered in WCCW where he lost. They tried to block him but thankfully he got WCCW's shot & he proved why he's a former WWA World Heavyweight Champion as in one weekend he kicked Matt McClain's as* in Premiere & won the NWA Television title in WCCW. Before we go public with this I want to be sure you know while we should be a great team there are some negatives with teaming with me.
Aleksei: I am Romani man, we know how to roll with what ever crap gets thrown at us. Your not the only one who does research. I had an idea of what I was getting into when I called you up to be my partner...I decided it was worth it, and also your wife is really hot.
*Aleksei sticks out his hand for Weapon-X to shake. The women are getting into the ring to hand out bottles of Propel water to everybody, since one of the great reasons the ring is outside is so that if you can perform at the top of your game in the heat of the desert then inside of a packed arena or out doors stadium you'll be fine, as Weapon-X proceeds to shake Aleksei's hand.
Aleksei: Now you promised me we would go drinking if I did this dessert training thing.
*X nods his head slowly, as if he knows this is a bad idea but he is a man of his word, as FireStarter, Viper & Sinnomon start to laugh.
Weapon-X: After we come out to the public. Can't have people seeing us together til then as it'd blow the surprise.
Aleksei: Well I would wear a mask too but somebody told me I would look too poofy. Its cool though, until then I will just drink for both of us.
*X starts to walk away as our scene fades to black.
*****************************************************
And so my Party Horde we fast forward to moments after Climax Control...
The small pool of press that cover Sin City Wrestling have gathered for an impromptu press conference with Aleksei Koji and his recently revealed tag team partner...Weapon X. The two stand together, Aleksei grinning from ear to ear and Weapon X looking...well stern as always.
Aleksei: Didn’t I promise you a good partner! How can you get better than this guy. I mean most people would agree he can hold his own. I mean look at him, he looks ready for this battle right now. Oh right...you guys should start with your questions...
Reporter: Weapon X, when did you decide to team up with Aleksei?
Weapon-X: The decision came with in the last few weeks is all I'd like to say on that right now.
Reporter: So Aleksei, why the big secret? You had Weapon X on your webshow last week, why not make the announcement then?
Aleksei: Because not only am I quite the brawler, but I understand that this is the business we call SHOW BUSINESS! Sure I could have let you guys know right away but that is pretty damn boring. I have always said I do my best work when I am the underdog, I wanted you all to think I didn’t have a chance. I am Romani, its hard to pass up a good trick.
Reporter: This one is for Weapon X, why did you choose to team up with Aleksei?
*Weapon-X grunts at the question, which Aleksei smiles about possibly thinking about the Geico cave man commercials, before answering.
Weapon-X: Why team up with a man whom, if not for Table Match stipulations, probably would be SCW Roulette Champion right now? The man who is facing one of my old partners in the NWA World Television Champion RJ Harris in the first round of the NWA King of the Deathmatch tournament which I won't go into detail about so that hopefully a crooked referee is not booked for that match. I want to say as a man who the fans call a "HarKore God" to get banned from NWA competition right BEFORE this tournament hasn't just upset me but fans are starting a petition online to boycott the event in protest.
*X stops himself, knowing that tonight is not about him but about the team.
Weapon-X: Also the fact that Sinful Obsession has had limited but mostly success in the AWA as well as SCW in the tag team divisions as they are good but far from great. You know...
*Aleksei's hyperness jumps in before X can continue.
Aleksei: Why wouldn’t he want to team up with me, huh? See I knew there was a reason I like asking the questions more than the answers. You think I am some low rent jobber? I may not have the history that Weapon X has but ask Gabriel if I am a light weight. I want all you to know this right here, is a team. I am not his sidekick. We have different styles, sure but when things go bad he is going to be happy to have me in his corner.
Weapon-X: It's ok Aleksei reporters jobs are to try to get to the truth in all things. As I said before you should already be SCW Roulette Champion but you proved tonight that you could go toe to toe with a former SCW Heavyweight Champion in Gabriel as actions speak louder then words. And I know coming from me, who say's a whole lot, is saying something but our actions will prove ourselves come Into The Void.
Reporter: You mention Gabriel. Both of you lost tonight, what does that say about your chances of getting a victory in two weeks?
Weapon-X: For the second time The HarKore Warriors lost DUE to the rule that states that men & women can't face off here in the SCW. Jamie Staggs had LEFT his F*CKING partner so what was I supposed to do? Be a wussy & wait for the countout victory NO my wife & I fight for what we earn so instincts took over. I'll tell you all in public what I just got done telling my wife in private that for MY actions causing us the loss I am deeply sorry to her. We're now 0-2 as a team here which is going to bother me but not stop me from forging ahead with Aleksei to becoming the next SCW Tag Team Champions that of course are not heavyweight in nature.
Aleksei: Yeah what he said, and also I am wanting to add that Gabriel won’t fool me twice. I measured him up in that ring and I know that I can beat him. I know that in a straight up fight, he can not beat me. He can not bring me down. That means all he has is his tricks and you know what?...he doesn’t even have that. Do you know why grifters don’t hit up the same mark twice?...because it won’t fucking work. I am not showing up at Into the Void for another magic show, I am going to war.
Reporter: You guys have two weeks to figure out how to work as a team. Do you think you will be ready or will you go into your match as two solo fighters?
Aleksei: Well I will let you in on a little secret...we have already started training and that is a new thing for me. I am not the kind of guy who hits the gym and what I can tell you about training...is that it sucks! But we already look fucking great, so in two weeks who knows what we can do.
Weapon-X: You must not know who your talking too as The HarKore Warriors train dam.n near endlessly. We're not perfect of course but between training & research on our opponents we are second to none. Aleksei likes to party but he's come to realize if he wants to make it big in this business, or I'm one of the few who still like to call it a sport, you need to train. We have some exciting moves that we can't wait to bestow on the fans at the upcoming Supershow.
Aleksei: Ok we have time for one more question. The after parties have already begun. I have to get all my drinking in now before Mr. Serious takes my flask away.
Reporter: Is Weapon X going to party with you, Aleksei?
Aleksei: This man is a member of the party horde whether he likes it or not...I mean afterall he is my partner. Now, everyone has their own way to party. He won’t be throwing back the rum like yours truly but he is ready to party, right partner?
Weapon-X: Anybody who has followed me knows I enjoy a 12 pack now & again. Of course kids only for those over 21 but I don't go out to bars normally to "party" I stay at home with my family & close friends. It ensures no drinking & driving or some drunk guys who think they are tough wanting to fight every few hours.
Reporter: But X you didn't answer the question for if your going to party WITH Aleksei?
Weapon-X: Maybe.
*X starts to walk off the stage as Aleksei is smiling.
Aleksei: Just so you all know, that was a yes.
*Some of the reporters start to yell out "What do you think about facing one of X's old partners in RJ Harris?" but Aleksei doesn't answer as our scene fades to darkness.
*************************************************************************
Many hours later as the party horde does what they do best. We find that Aleksei is having a rare reflective moment in the bathroom. Don’t worry everyone, he is not sitting on the throne. Instead he stands in front of the mirror twirling a coin between his fingers. He watches the coin carefully. The metal disk dances on his knuckles with ease and with a flick of his wrist Aleksei can make the coin vanish. Then with the same grace, he is able to bring it back.
Aleksei: He must have done it just like that...but he was so damn fast.
The romani shakes his head doing the the trick again. The sounds of the party can be heard in the background. Somewhere in the camper a loud crashing can be heard and for a brief moment a hush can be heard. Then we can hear someone assure the crowd they are okay and the party continues. Aleksei flips the coin, catches it and then makes it vanish. He chuckles and steps away briefly. When he comes back he is wearing a mask, similar to Weapon X. As predicted his hair is not quite contained by the get up and Aleksei looks quite absurd.
Aleksei (doing his best Weapon X impersonation): Justice will be served! That’s right Sinful Obsession, your days of the things involving....um Sin are over. We are the heavy fist of justice and we will crush you into a fine mush....or something like that.
He starts to laugh and then struggles to get the mask off. When he is done his hair is a mess but Aleksei appears quite proud of himself.
Aleksei: What a goofy guy...but he is wicked in the ring. I might just win this thing. (Aleksei now tries to do his best American announcer voice) OUR WINNERS AND NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS...ALEKSEI KOJI AND WEAPON X!!!
Aleksei holds his hands out in a very typical victory pose, you can almost hear the fans chanting his name. He gets pretty into it, hopping around in victory before stumbling into the shower and falling back with a loud crash. All of sudden the party becomes quiet again.
Aleksei: I’m okay!
The crowd outside the bathroom cheers as Aleksei stumbles back to his feet. He takes a big drink of his current bottle of chilled Vodka and then holds it up to his head that appears to have a bruise.
Aleksei: If I can make it out of this bathroom alive....and wake up tomorrow to train with X. I just pull this off. Can you imagine that, you crazy Romani fool. Instead of countless little victories that only you know about everyone will know your name. Instead of the story of your battles only written in scars on your body it will be written in three counts. I will be a champion and the party horde will be there to witness with me...a champion...yeah I could drink to that.
Aleksei is about to take another drink when a pair of frilly panties flies into the bathroom and lands on his head. The brief serious moment is now over. He looks at the panties with an impressed smirk. He turns to leave the bathroom on the prowl.
Aleksei: I believe it is time for a panty raid!
Fade out.
