(OOC... Not my best work. Struggled some on the creative side. Sorry!)
Van Der Kamp is being dragged down a dark hallway. He has been badly beaten. Two men are on each arm as they drag him to a room at the end of the hallway. Larsen looks around the room and sees Tau sitting off in the distance. Tau looks at Larsen, but shifts his eyes away as Larsen's eyes meet his. Tau looks down and buries his head in his hands. Larsen looks around and sees Nassor standing in the room. Nassor is holding a gun and is standing next to three people with hoods over their heads.
NASSOR:
"Welcome, you've made it just in time for the feature presentation."
Larsen struggles to get free from the men holding him, but one of them hits him in the ribs with the butt of a rifle. Larsen drops to the ground on his knees. The men hold him down.
NASSOR:
"I see you still have some fight in you, but that will change. I am a patient man, I will tolerate many things, but what you have done is unforgiveable. So let's find out what is behind door #1 shall we?"
Nassor points the gun at the first persons head, and another man prepares to remove the hood. As he begins to pull the hood off a loud ringing noise can be heard. Larsen jars awake. He looks around his apartment and realizes that it was just another dream. Larsen struggles to piece his thoughts together.
Another dream, another memory, another question left unanswered. It almost seems that my mind is not allowing me to see what's going to happen. Who was under the hood, and why can't I see them? Why is Nassor having me beaten? And I just can't get over the look on Tau's face. The guilt, the shame. He is a strong man, I've never seen him so heavily influenced by emotion. Somewhere the pieces of the puzzle are still missing. I must find out what the truth is.

"Here I am, once again beaten by Ian DeTornado. Here I am again, defeated. Falling just short of winning the SWA title again. Maybe Ian was right. Maybe he is just that much better than me. I pulled out all the stops, and still fell short. Maybe a man as conflicted as I has no business challenging for this businesses highest prize. Then again, maybe the time just wasn't right. The fact still remains that I have been a force to be reckoned with her in the SWA. I have only lost 3 matches in my career and 2 have been to Ian DeTornado. My point here is, don't count me out. I will admit that I have been distracted in the past month or so. I was distracted by the SWA title, I was distracted by my personal life. I have forgotten why I came here in the first place. I had forgotten how I was treated by The Sedition. I had forgotten how the cowardly Gabreal Martin had been ducking my challenges. Now I remember. The Sedition are now trying to render me irrelevant to this business by bumping me down to the bottom of the card to face the prepetual undercard loser Duke Wallace. I have nothing against you Duke, but it's been made clear to me that I need to prove something to our "bosses" in The Sedition.
I will not allow them to sweep me under the rug. I will not allow them to try and erase my existence. I will not be forgotten, and I will not be ignored. Unfortunately for you Duke, that means you are doomed to gain another L, in your already bloated L column. I know you are a capable competitor, but you are unable to turn that ability into a victory. I believe this is because you are to self absorbed to even take the time to understand your opponent. You are far too busy trying to boost your ego, than to take the time to research your opponent and even understand what you are up against. You are too worried about conspiracy theories, and who's trying to keep you down. This is the real world Duke. No one is going to hand you anything. Especially not The Sedition. If you want something from them you have to reach out, take it, and run for miles with it until they are tired of chasing you. That is how I managed to become the #1 contender though they didn't want me to. I stepped out, took it, and ran with it.
You my friend are living under the illusion that the world owes you something. The fact is Duke, this is a cruel world. If you had truly gone through half the things you have claimed to you would know that. Anything you're going to get in this world you have to fight for it. But, I don't see a fighter in you. All I see is someone who is living under the delusion that he is entitled to a better life. If you want that better life, you're going to have to work alot harder than you have been to get it. I would welcome some more fight from you. I am in a bad mood, and need to take out some agression. I don't want you to lay down and take it because it's not coming easy to you. I want to see you fight, scrap and claw your way through the battle, but I don't think you have it in you. I on the other hand am coming with all guns blazing. I am out to prove that I will not be swept under the rug. Best advice I can offer you Duke, is either show up to fight or get out of my way."
