Everything is black and Jedi Mind Tricks' "The Rage of Angels" begins to play. Then the scene opens up with Thomas Young inside of Darko Studios, the lights are as bright as ever and Thomas Young is without his allies. He runs his hand along one of the walls as he walks down a corridor toward an unknown target. Doors line the corridor, a few of their doors open, some slightly ajar and a majority of them are closed and most likely locked. They do NEED their privacy. Thomas Young reaches a door with a nameplate that reads "Thomas Young". He reaches for the doorknob then stares at the nameplate. All of his attention directed to that single piece of black plastic, with the white lettering spelling out his name...
Thomas Young: ...Heh...
He sighs and slowly turns the door knob, he looks back at the nameplate once more then opens the door completely and steps into the room, its the office thats has been the setting of a few promos. His desk is empty now, his laptop is gone, his pictures, his papers, everything is gone. He steps forward a moment and runs his hand along his desk...His breathing becomes heavier and he swears under his breath
Thomas Young: (getting angrier) What the hell?
He turns around, his face not seen by the camera, he opens the door quickly and steps out...He sighs then slams the door behind him. All of the music being produced is heard pausing and a few people begin to ask what just happened. Thomas Young simply laughs silently and begins to walk back through the corridor. Their music begins playing once again and Thomas Young's walk has become more determined, his fists balled up as he walks into the main lounge of Darko Studios. Its empty of all people except Saki who is sleeping on one of the couches. Thomas Young walks into Darkos main recording room and is greeted by his partner
Prince Darko: S'good?
Prince Darko then turns around and walks forward to a man who is standing at the far end of the room. His back is turned toward the camera, the man is wearing what seems to be a black hoodie and jeans a black skully covers the top portion of his long brown hair which has been tied back into a ponytail. He notices Thomas has entered the room and shifts his position and turns around...Jeff James
Jeff James: Thomas...
Thomas walks forward toward Jeff James and looks him in the eyes, there is an awkward silence between the two as they give each other the nastiest of glares
Thomas Young: (angrily) What do you want?
Jeff James: To talk to you.
Thomas Young: Well, I don't want to talk.
Jeff James: (impatiently) No, you don't get it. Your going to talk.
Thomas Young: (his voice becoming louder) NO Jeff, you don't get it! I'm not going to talk to you.
Thomas Young turns around and Jeff James grabs him by the shoulder. Thomas Young stands unmoving with his back facing toward the camera
Thomas Young: Jeff, if you don't let me go, your not going to like the results.
Jeff James: Well, them show me your god damn results.
Thomas Young chuckles and says "you asked for it" under his breath, his fists ball up and in one quick motion turns 180 degrees sending a hard left in his brothers direction. Yet Jeff who is the quicker man sees it coming and ducks and elbows Thomas in the back of the head, and pushing him against the wall
Jeff James: (angrily) Huh Thomas!? You want to throw another punch at me? Huh? Come on Thomas! Your the bigshot right!?
Thomas Young begins to yell and he jumps back causing Jeff to stumble backward into Darko who catches him. Thomas Young then spins around and lunges at Jeff. But Jeff once again dodges it and Thomas falls onto the floor. Jeff then follows up by jumping onto the back of Thomas and sending another elbow to the back of his head, pushing his face into the floor
Jeff James: COME ON BOY! TRY AND HIT ME AGAIN THOMAS! GIMME YOUR BEST SHOT BITCH!
Then Thomas Young yells again and pushes himself off the ground, Jeff still on his back in piggyback position, Thomas then runs backward trying to slam Jeff into the wall, but he's clever and hops off which causes Thomas to slam himself into the wall. Then Jeff lunges forward and knees Thomas in the stomach and slams his head into the wall, he holds him in choking manner causing him to stop moving
Jeff James: (calm) And you think your going to beat Nightmare. Ha.
He lets Thomas go, and Thomas simply slides down the wall into a seated position on the floor. His head hangs low and Jeff James laughs
Jeff James: You make me sick Thomas. You think this is going to beat Nightmare? You think falling for his words will work? You think becoming angry and pissed is going to help you win!? You see what it did to you!? It caused you to react without thinking which caused me to easily counter your every attack. Is this what you want against Nightmare Thomas? Is this how your gonna try to win? If this is what you want then go and do it. If you want to calm the (BLEEP) down and let me talk to you then stay.
Thomas Young looks at Jeff and then exhales, he gets up and walks right past him, not even making eye contact. He reaches the door and Jeff is seen in the back with his hands on his hips and he's shaking his head in disgust. Thomas Young's face is seen, and his eyes are watery, his face is red from being pushed into the floor, a tear manages to escape and Thomas places his hand on the doorknob
Jeff James: Your a disgrace Thomas.
That statement begins to echo and Thomas Young's face turns from sorrow to extreme anger, He removes his hand from the doorknob and in one powerful motion sends it into the wall
Thomas Young: (shouting) I AM NOT....A DISGRACE!
Jeff James: Yes you are Thomas! Go on pussy! Run away and go through that door.
Thomas Young: (sadly) Jeff...
Thomas Young turns around, his face bears no tears but what is seen is deep embarrassment and disappointment
Jeff James: (sarcastically) Oh, so now you want to stay?
Thomas Young's face contorts and it takes every bit of courage in his body to mutter "yes"
Jeff James: Then come over here and sit.
Thomas Young obeys like a dog that was just beat, his tail between his legs and his head hung low. He sits down.
Jeff James: Whats wrong Thomas?
Thomas Young: Whats wrong Jeff? I've lost all interest in wrestling.
Jeff James: What!? Why!?
Thomas Young: The constant losses, never being in the spotlight...
Jeff James: So your going to let this bring you down? Your an excellent athelete...I'm not telling you to be like me Thomas. But god damn it! Stop being so hard on yourself.
Thomas Young: Its just...I thought if I became as angry as Gregory...Then I'd be better than him...I'm naturally a very frustrated person Jeff. This can work, I know I can beat him!
Jeff James: You may be able to beat him but not in this condition. You don't go into a match anticipating defeat, or trying to change how you wrestle so you can one up a wrestler. You bring everything YOU have and expect HIM to try to one up you. And theres a big chance he will not one up you and will waste all his time trying to be better than you instead of putting his abilities to work...See, if you try to impress people, or if you go in this cockier than the word itself...Then your never going to make it Thomas. Believing in yourself is good, but when you over do it you lose...Trust me.
Thomas Young: But Hanson is a punk! He's nothing Jeff! You've beat him and Dio has beat him! He's nothing but garbage being recycled throughout the Foundation.
Jeff James: What? So you think because two of us have beat him that gives you a 100% chance of coming out the winner? Earth To Thomas! Thats not how things work here. You need to come in at 120% and you need to at least TRY. I mean going in there with this attitude, your going to expect the victory handed to you on a silver platter...Thats why you lose all of your matches.
Thomas Young: Thats not true! Your a liar!
Jeff James: Oh, So I'm a liar now Thomas? Thats why I've been the Champion for so long .Thats why I've defeated everyone trying to take this title from me?
Thomas Young: You can't be right...YOU CANT!
Jeff James: Alright Thomas...Think that. When you lose its your fault.
Jeff James looks at Thomas with an extremely concerned look then just shakes his head in disappointment. He then sighs and walks out of the room...Prince Darko looks at Thomas in his most pathetic state and in a Ron Simmons moment shouts "DAMN" and walks from the room
Thomas Young: Jeff can't be right...He's not better than me...Nightmares not better than me...NO ONE IS BETTER THAN ME GOD DAMN IT!
Thomas Young jumps up from his set and kicks it, he then screams and falls to his knees and begins to hit the floor as hard as he can
Thomas Young: Thomas, look at you...This is as pathetic as you were when you were afraid of Krenshov. Your a pussy, look at you Thomas...LOOK AT YOU YOU (BLEEP)ING DISGRACE!
He begins sobbing
Thomas Young: (shouting) YOUR PATHETIC! ALL OF YOUR MATCHES END THE SAME! YOUR AN EMBARRASSMENT! YOUR THE REASON THE FOUNDATION LOSES! YOU (BLEEP)ING IDIOT!
He hits the floor once more before his entire tantrum comes to a sudden end. He then gets back up to his feet. He looks directly at the wall, a look of astonishment on his face...
Thomas Young: Damn...He is right...
Thomas Young then comes to realize the words that were spoken by Jeff James, the ones that angered him beyond all limits were correct. He was only stooping to Nightmares level. Becoming angry over nothing wasn't going to help him win. Instead it was just going to bring more losing. Jeff James' words brang out the new Thomas Young, the one with a revitalized look at the wrestling world...Thomas Young has reached the final stage in becoming a professional wrestler. He's escaped the backyard and how anger and blind fury would aid you in winning a match. He's gained experience that can only be taught by more experience wrestlers, which is what his little brother had grown up to be..
