The scene opens back to Thomas and The Prince walking down the stairs. They then advance towards the Sebastien Martyr statuette. The camera now is able to make out more details on the statuette. Martyr's face looks strong, determined, and under massive discomfort. His right hand balances spherical figure. It seems to resemble the world. His hand showing great struggle, at the point of breaking. His legs forming a "Y". Making his body illustrate the illusion of him being crushed to ground by the globe. His left hand holds a picture frame close to his chest. In the picture frame is a head shot. Still looking trapped, it seems as if the picture is trying to break free. But from what?
Thomas Young Martyr, yes, you are definitely undefeated. You have cause damage in matches. You do have that certain flair. But, what true competition have you faced since being here? You've faced three men with no love for this job. Three men with a passion absent for this business. They were nothing but morale elevators, you, I, them, he, us, all knew they were nothing. They knew they were there to make you look good. A Wayne Wright or Joey Malone. That's all it was. You went out there, you would win, regardless.
Prince Darko Something is different today. Something will be different on Tuesday. Something will continue to be different after Tuesday. You will live being different forever. You will face you're first defeat, but, you will not take it as you should. It won't sit right with you. It will nag at you. Continue to peck, peck, peck, peck in the back of your head. You'll go to sleep having nightmares. You'll wake up, you'll look in the mirror, you won't see you. You'll see him.
The Camera franticly flashes to the picture in the hand of the statuette.
Thomas Young Do you know why, he'll be the face you see? Because every damn day of your life you will fight yourself. You will fall like all empires. You will fall like everything that goes up. Why? Because you think you are better then us. You think that you are better skilled than us. Tuesday and fate will prove you wrong. You will fight yourself. You will fight fate. Everyday you will fight fate. Trapping you in you. All sense of rational will escape from you.
Prince Darko A fiend you will become. Losing all. You'll be addicted to fighting. It'll be a gamble. You'll continue to lose, but, you will not lose hope.
Thomas Young "I can beat it"
Prince Darko You will say. That's all that will run in your head. The match will peck your head, leaving holes and wounds.
Thomas Young To patch it up.
Prince Darko "I can beat it"
Thomas Young You won't. You'll die trying to reverse the irreversible. You'll die trying to beat the unbeatable. You'll die trying to erase what the gods had wrote.
Prince Darko It's all preventable, but, if we did, it would be cheating now wouldn't it? We would be helping you cheat, now wouldn't we? Cheating. That's neither you nor us. We've left the life of cheating. We've dropped that along with our devious ways. We've changed with the times, advanced through evolution. We were lucky. Being granted free will, we were privileged choices. Something most are not as eligible to get.
Thomas Young Although, we are gods, but, we are no special then the average Joe you meet on the street. The only thing that separates us from them is our ability to read and write the future.
Prince Darko Cowboys, we see your future, we see the end. It stops Tuesday. The chapter along with the saga ends and a page opens for a new.
Thomas Young We unfold a new plot twist.
Prince Darko We change the story.
Thomas Young So Cowboys, you want to put your tag title match slot on the line?
Prince Darko We know break tradition. We have now stopped writing. We already have the outcome for both answers. It has the same remote outcome. Just one has greater damage for you than the other, and that one has a greater gain for the gods.
Thomas Young We're not writing anymore. The pencils are taking a break. You get to customize your fate right now. We endow this responsibility in you two. Do not drop the ball.
Prince Darko's phone begins to ring.
He goes to answer.
