Final Declaration (M. Cross)

[terra]

And the moment the fans have waited for had finally arrived as "Bombtrack" begins to play over the Pepsi Arena. The Colorado fans greet Tyson Terra the same way any fans would greet Tyson Terra, and of course he revels in every bit of it. With a sinister grin on his face all the way to the ring, he has the look of a man who didn't get jabbed with a sledgehammer the week before, but one who had something truly devious on his mind.

Can someone explain to me...why it is that certain people take sides. I'm mean, what is truly good and what's really evil. There are no angels among men in this business, folks...everybody's got a skeleton or two in their closet. A deep, dark secret that they cannot let see the light of day because it's so vile...so heinous, so downright sinister that it'd mar their reputation for life.

Well that's the difference between other wrestlers in this industry...and me. See in my short tenure here I've made it my BUSINESS to be vile, sinister and downright heinous, so it really doesn't bother me to have a skeleton or two, and that's what this is all about.

Mark Cross. I'm sure you remember Full Throttle last week don't you? Yeah you beat me in a hardcore match...

Terra applauds sarcastically...

Gift wrapped and hand sealed because the only way anyone can be me nowadays is by jumping me or hitting me with a blunt object...but what about afterward? What about after the show when you starting to make your way here to the "Soda Pop" Arena here? Remember that? Remember that SUV that almost made you a stain in the parking lot? I'm sure you do, Mark...because I sure as hell do remember like it was yesterday, actually, like it was Saturday.

Having caught word of the attempted attack over the internet, the fans begin to catch onto what Tyson's is hinting at here.

See, at the start of all this, I said I was gonna put the old dog, but the old dog made a mistake when he got put down...he got back up. He got back up and then had it in his mind that he still had some bite to him. Well, I told you I was going to make it difficult for you Mark. Don't say I didn't warn you, my friend. I'm going to finish what I started two weeks ago with you. I'm going to put you down. I'm going to KNOCK you down. I'm going to BEAT you down...until you're unable to get up.

Until Tyson Terra is once an for all...the LAST MAN STANDING in the ring. So what do you say, Cross? Right here at The Clash Of The Titans...we finish this...and I finish you.

[Mark Cross]

The fans begin to cheer as the music of Mark Cross plays though out the arena. He makes his way out onto the stage mic in hand already and begins to speak.

Terra I should have hit you in the head with that sledgehammer it might have actually knocked some sense into your damn head. You are obviously to high on yourself and the sound of your own voice to realize what a mistake it was to say some of what you did out here. You see up until Saturday this was all just business to me but now you have made the mistake of letting me know just who was driving that SUV and now Terra it gets personal, now I go into to this to finish you!

The fans are of course going wild knowing that they will see these two men fight it out once again at Clash of the Titans. Mark motions for the fans to quiet down so he can speak once more.

Now you did have an interesting choice of words there near the end of that little speech of your, and Terra if it's last man standing you want then it is last man standing you'll get Terra. That's right you and I one on one until one of us literally can't get up anymore and Terra I've made it a career to get back-up no matter how many times I've been knocked down so don't harbor any delusions of being the one to put me away because when all is said and done I'll be the last man standing while they carry your bleeding broken carcass out of here on a stretcher

The man know as The Wolf locks eyes with Tyson Terra and stands waiting and ready for whatever comes next just as he always has.

[terra]

Stitches? Blood? Broken Bones? That's all part the show, my friend. See...you've already lost the battle. You've decided to make this...personal. For you, it was a career threatening experience. For me...it was Saturday night on the town.

I never take anything personally, Cross. It's all business what I do in this ring. What I have done and what I will do. But in your case, what I'm GOING to do to you tonight, it isn't business. It's isn't personal. It's going to be pure pleasure. It's going to be my pleasure and A PLEASURE to tear you limb from limb in this ring. You're going to need everything you can muster up tonight Mark Cross. You just officially wandered in my world. I'm going to make sure that your stay here is as uncomfortable as possible.

[Mark Cross]

Mark shakes his head chuckling at Terra.

Your going to make my stay as uncomfortable as possible Terra thats funny considering the last time I looked you where the one having a sledgehammer rammed into his gut.

He begins to pace back and forth on the stage never taking his eyes off of Terra's.

Oh and don't hand me that this isn't personal garbage because we both know that this became personal for you the second you saw me stand back up after our first match and you tried and failed to take me out then,and all you did on Saturday when you tried to run me down after the show was reinforce the fact that you are indeed taking you inability to keep me down personally!

The pacing stops now as he focuses completely on Terra.

This match Terra will show you once and for all that you truly do not have what it takes to keep me down, that no matter how good you think you are and no matter what you hit me with I will stand back up and keep on coming just like I have always done through out my entire career, and Terra it will be my pleasure in this match to not just cause you another loss, but to truly beat you once and for all!

[terra]

Once and for all?

Terra chuckles...

I'm flattered. You really make me out to be a...true villain in this place, and you couldn't be any further from the truth there my friend. There are "bad guys" here in APW...but there isn't man in that locker room that can truly call himself EVIL. That man happens to be standing in this ring right now, and tonight you Mark Cross...APW...and the world are going to truly see just how EVIL I can be.

Lowering his mic, his music hits once again as he nods to Cross, both of them never losing gaze on each other as the scene comes to a close.
