September 18th 2007 Is It Over? (Cobra Scene)
After finding out about my innocents I was wondering if it was over. I wasn’t all too sure that my name was in the clear. Flap Flanagan cleared it but really, it’s not him that I am worried about. It could’ve been a set up by his sister.
I took a sip of my coffee that was sitting in front of me. It’s been a long week with preparation, speeches, old friends, and false accusations. I told everyone that I wasn’t going to bother with this whole situation due to the fact that it might come out that I’ve got a guilty conscience. I couldn’t help it though.
Flap Flanagan is a well respected champion but there is something that bothers me about him. I kind of think he doesn’t take this match as serious as he’s supposed to. With his sister’s disappearance I find it quite odd that she would wait until his biggest match until contacting him again. He’s been too focus on finding her than wanting this match.
I stood up from the table. I was a bit tired due to lack of sleep from last night. I wasn’t in the mood to joke around. I needed to be serious about this. I stretched and walked over to the television set. I turned it on but nothing interesting was on so I left the news on. I sat on the couch.
My neck was bothering me a little bit. I began rubbing the back of it. I am surprised myself that this injury was nothing serious. Don’t get me wrong, it was serious but just no serious enough to put me out of action for a while. I’m wondering if Flap is going to focus on my neck. Splinter and Lestat made that mistake by not focusing on my weakness. That is how I turned up with the championship.
I was pretty bored just sitting there thinking about all this stuff. So I decided that I was going to go for a walk. Maybe I’ll end up finding more answers to the question that have been left unanswered. Is it this whole mess with Flap Flanagan over yet? I could find the answers I’m looking for by walking.
I stood up to get my boots. I had jeans and a white shirt on. I laced up my black boots then grabbed my hat. After getting dressed I made my way outside.

September 18th 2007 The Walk (Cobra Scene)
It was actually hot outside today. I walked to the end of the yard to look both ways. I wasn’t sure which was I wanted to walk. So I took a coin out of my pocket then flipped it in the air.
“If it lands on heads then I take a right. If it lands on tails I take a left.”
The coin landed on the ground with heads facing up. After picking it up, I turned and headed toward the right. There wasn’t much on my street. On one side there were houses then on the other side were developmental buildings. Across the street was some sort of boat place where they held several boats.
Anyway as I was walking I began to fall in a train of thought. Don’t ask me but I seem to think a lot when I’m alone. Only this time there’s too much shit to think about and I’ve been trying to get away from it. I’m sick of worrying too much about little things. I’m not saying that Flap’s troubles are a little thing, but everything else. My brother, my ex, and a few other things I haven’t mentions.
“Just three days left until probably the match of my career. I don’t know if I can do this as it is my toughest challenge yet. It’s going to be weird though because I don’t know if I’m fighting a focused champion or a champion hell bent in finding his sister. Why does this have to happen now? Couldn’t it have happened some other time?”
I wanted to win this match so badly but not as badly enough to kidnap a man’s sister. I’m not that kind of person. If you think I am then there’s got to be something wrong with you. I pride myself on being the most respectful athlete in the business today. I don’t claim to be one of the young rookies who come out of nowhere and think they own the place. It’s not my style.
“I wonder what would’ve happened if I hadn’t come back to wrestle. Whenever you choose one thing you tend to think about the outcome of what would have happened if you chose the opposite. That’s how I think though. If I hadn’t decided to make my return when I did who really would’ve went into this unification match? Would it have been Splinter or would Lestat have to have been in two matches at the pay per view?”
I didn’t mind being in the big match. I was excited but just a little worried. My neck wasn’t one hundred percent cleared, my opponent isn’t focused enough, and I am on the shit end of getting blamed for everything. The only thing I’ve got left is my hopes of becoming the first ever Television/Open Weight championship. I have faith in myself but there are doubts.
I turned the corner to walk into a store. I purchased a bottle of water then walked out. I didn’t want to stay too long so I didn’t attract too much attention. I was still tired so I made my way home.
“In just a few short days I go into the match of my career. It’s almost as if it were Power on Wrestling Midwest vs. Power on Wrestling Northeast. All matches are championship matches or have something to do with a championship.”
I think I should get my neck checked out just before the match. It would probably be the smart thing to do. I don’t want to lose anymore concentration that what I’ve already have though. So I’m not going to bother with it. I’ll just pay the consequences when the time comes.
I made my way back to the house. When I walked in I saw Joe and Jay sitting there. They looked like they just got off the computer. I went into the kitchen to put my bottle of water in the refrigerator. I then sat on the recliner next to them.

September 18th 2007 Something’s Not Right (Cobra, Joe, and Jay Scene)
Cobra have you checked Flanagan lately?
Not since I found out my name was in the clear. Why what’s up?
Tell him Jay.
I was watching his last promo that he had. It was quite interesting.
Hmm…it sounds interesting.
Well it gets better.
Just tell him idiot!
Okay Jesus….He was talking to his sister.
Oh so he found her?
I almost gasped in relief until I heard what Jay told me after that. I didn’t know whether I should’ve been shocked, stupefied, or concerned.
He didn’t find her. It was a dream of some sort.
You’ve got to be kidding me right?
I’m afraid not man.
That sucks.
Yea well it gets worse.
Oh boy!
I was really getting tired of things getting worse around here. I tried to brush it off as much as I can. How’s it get worse I thought to myself. I almost forgot those two were standing there.
Well what’s the next thing I need to know Jay?
You wouldn’t have happened to know that Flap was a former WORLD champion did you?
Actually no I didn’t. He’s accomplished what I was never able to do. He was once at the top of the ladder. I almost envy him but I won’t let that get in the way.
Listen Jay I think he’s had enough today. Thanks little brother.
You’re welcome.
Joe I need to talk to you for a minute.
I was a little curious about this whole mess with Flap. I’m confused and I needed to talk to somebody about it. I couldn’t talk to Jay because he’s just not too serious. Joe is the one I can talk to about all of this. Jay is the one I can go to for a laugh when I need a good one.
What’s up bro?
Well I don’t know if I can beat Flap Flanagan. How was I to know that he was a former world champion? Not only that but he’s having weird dreams where his sister has been telling him to turn me into the hunted. On top of all that, I’ve got to worry about my neck.
Okay listen to me real quick. Don’t worry about your neck first of all. It didn’t bother you during last week’s match. So it shouldn’t bother you this week. Second of all he may have been a former world champion but he hasn’t held as many titles you held.
That’s true but I don’t want to brag. It makes me sound cocky. I also don’t like talking about the past.
I will tell you this. You can brag only to compare yourself. In my opinion it builds up a level of equal quality. The past will help sometime man. Don’t let the bad half of your past catch up to you. I know you’ve had some great memories.
You’re right Joe. Maybe I’m a little in over my head. It was the good half of my parts that made me the man I am today. I’ve got three days to get my act together. I’ve got two more days of preparation. You and Jay have got to help me come up with some strategies in this match. Flap Flanagan I hope you think nothing less of me. I hope that I am cleared of the accusations by your fellow partners. I’m going to try and focus a little more on this match. I will bring my best and become the undisputed Television championship.
