-I'm turning back to my old self. I want it all... Nothing seems to be good enough to please me... I want it all... Everything... I want it... Winning the qualifying match was a good start but I'm looking at the future... Having the world title around my waist and having everyone chant my name... I'm ready for it.-
(Scene opens. Izzy is setting inside of his 2012 Rolls Royce Phantom, He's in the drivers seat starring out of the windsheild into the dark, rainy night. His face looks as if he's nervous about something. He sets with his hand on his forehead. He continously looks out into the empty, dark rainy night that is D.C. He leans back and lets out a big sigh before opening his door and scurrying up to the front door of a huge mansion like building, Izzy knocks and waits for an answer. A few moments in the rain pass and a very familiar man answers the door, Troy "The Baller" Franklin. He's dressed in his usual out of ring attire. He motions for Izzy to come in, Izzy enters and follows Troy.)
Troy Franklin- "Glad to see that you came by to see me."
Izzy- "Rosie told me you called, So I thought I'd come by and give you a visit."
(Troy leads Izzy into a huge room. Decorated with posters and belts all from Troy's past. This place is the Soldiers Palace. It's a massive room, filled with stories of the past, from Troy, Dean, and Brien. Troy ushers Izzy over to a big wrap around white leather couch with a coffee table in the middle of it, on the table sets two glasses and a bottle of Glenavon Special Liqueur Whisky. Izzy sets down on one side of the table and Troy sets on the adjascent side, Troy reaches in his shirt pocket and grabs a cigar and lighter, Troy lights the cigar and places the lighter on the table. Troy then grabs the bottle and opens it pouring himself and Izzy a nice size glass. Izzy takes the glass and sips from it as he leans back. Troy puffs on his cigar and drinks from his glass as well.)
Troy- "Looks like you haven't changed a lick Izzy. How's it been ?"
Izzy- "I'm getting through it all boss. Haven't heard much out of you in a while, You been good ?"
Troy- "I'm doing great. Had to step out of the ring, My body's getting the wear and tear that most guys my age already have, I'm just happy I made it as far as I did. I had to step down, going on and wrestling really wasn't an option after that ladder match we both took place in."
Izzy- "I feel you man, that match tore me all to shit... Could barely walk after it. Then after the smoke cleared neither of us came out on top."
Troy- "It was a shame. But, that's the past... I've been tuneing in and saw that you finally got you some gold around that waist of yours. What was it The Tag Title and then the Television Title ? Both belts have great history through and you put your name down in the books with all those other guys like, Shawn Starr. He was a bonified champion throughout his time in USPW. Then didn't you beat that Mike Mahoney fellow ? He's a MMA superstar, and you ended up being the last man standing. I have to say that I felt like a proud father when I saw you win the Television Title at Hell Frozen Over."
Izzy- "Troy, that means the world coming from you... Winning the Television Title was the greatest moment in my career thus far. Sure I've had some great battles that are DVD worthy but having my hand raised and having gold placed in my hands for the first time was surreal. I felt like I was on top of the world, like nothing could bring me down. And since I won the belt I've had two successful defenses and gotten alot more exposure with the fans, it's really breath taking."
Troy- "It gets that way. It's going to be a bigger experience for you when ever you captur your first World Title. I know whenever I won my first World Title I thought I was dreaming it was so amazing. I had everyone chanting for me, that's how I got the name "The Baller", I use to be just Troy Franklin. But after that first World Title I was forever known as Troy "The Baller" Franklin."
Izzy- "That's kinda what happened to me after winning the Television Title... The fans and announcers started calling me "The Human Highlight Reel" management printed it on shirts and all that jazz. It's like winning a title gives you a new persona."
Troy- "That's exactly what happens Izzy... They look at you like you're better than before, but in reality you're not your the same superstar that's just going as hard as you can and everything's going your way... And from what I've been seeing everything is going your way, victories out of the yin-yang... Even got promoted into the main-event scene, I saw you and AJ win that tag match, damn good job."
Izzy- "That match got me a bigger jump up the ladder... It qualified me for that Glory for Gold match, I'm going to be in my very first World Title match."
Troy- "Oh damn ! Izzy moving up in the world. Just imagine getting announced as "The NEW USPW World Champion Izzy Inzane !" wouldn't that be a amazing feat to have, the Television Champ and the NEW World Champ."
Izzy- "Man, I don't want anything else like that... I really want that belt."
(Izzy sets back with a smile on his face and sips from his glass. Troy takes a long puff off of his cigar and lets it out sending a cloud of smoke into the air. Izzy leans forward and sets his glass on the table, Troy leans forward and sets his glass down too.)
Troy- "So, tell me some more about this match... What's it even going to be ? Some kind of funky contraption that management came up with ?"
Izzy- "Hit the nail on the head. Everything they've told us thus far has been... Five men outside of a cage, four of us will climb in and make it a four way elimination match, then when two are left it's going to be a ladder match for our newly sanctioned USPW Global Title. As for the superstars that are in it, Myslef vs. AJ vs. Phantom vs. Idol vs. Andrew Savage."
Troy- "That shit sounds crazy... You better be careful, I've taken place in some matches like that before and they never end well, even if you're on the winning side... You may still walk out of there battered and bruised... But, forget about wrestling for right now, How's Rosie ? When I called and she answered I didn't know what to think, You and her wasn't together back when GWA split up and then she was answering my phone call, What's up with that ?"
(Troy smiles big.)
Izzy- "Me and Rosie are like a roller coaster, up's and down's but we get through them. I know we had some rough times during the GWA era, but GWA's management wanted us flying all around never staying near a stable home. We even went on the damn oriental tour and a Mexico tour... She didn't want me gone like that so we had to give it a little time off, but whenever USPW gave me my call she came around and wanted to get back together."
Troy- "Well either way you and her go I'm behind you two, I introduced you two, so I'm behind both of you."
(Izzy nods and sips from his glass. Troy puffs on his cigar some more. Troy checks his watch and stands up, Izzy stands up too. Troy walks in the direction of a hallway and motions for Izzy to come with him. Izzy follows. The two are walking down the hallway with the massive posters and belts hanging all around. They come to the end of the hallway and step out into the dark, rainy night on a balcony.)
Troy- "Izzy, I know you've got a flight out tonight. So I'm going to make this spill very quick... I want you to know that you're still a Royal Horseman, no matter what happens in your career or in your life, You can always rely on myself, Dean, and Brien being there. Horsemen stick together, No matter the situation. I will always look at you as a brother... I saw the potential in you when you came up from the GWA:Power Plant. I took you under my wing and guided you, I don't take credit for the success you're having now in your career, but I do take credit for helping guide you from the streets up. You reminded me of myself when I first saw you and I couldn't let you wind up like I almost did, I wouldn't be able to live with myself... I guess what I'm really trying to say is that I love you Izzy, I will always love you... I want you to go to Summer Break Down in Pensacola, Florida and win that Global Title, and when you come back we'll have a nice celebration."
Izzy- "That means the world to me. I Love you too Troy. You're my brother, and I'm going down to Pensacola to make you proud, I'll walk out of there holding that Global Title high above my head with my Television Title buckled around my waist. I'm going to do it for you. I'm going to have to get going, Troy. Got to catch that flight."
(Troy turns around and shakes Izzy's hand and brings him in for a hug. The two men disperse and Izzy walks down the hallway back to the door and exits. He doesn't immediately walk to his car, he pulls out his phone and dials Rosie.)
Rosie- "Hello ?"
Izzy- "Hey, you got the bags packed ?"
Rosie- "Yeah, I got them packed. Did you call Troy back like I told you to ?"
Izzy- "I stopped by Soldiers Palace... I didn't want to call him, I needed to see him to get my confidence boosted going into this match."
Rosie- "Well that's good, nice to see him reaching out to you."
Izzy- "That's what the Royal Horsemen do... Stay together no matter what... But, I'm going to head on home, I love you."
Rosie- "Alright, see you when you get here. Love you too."
(Izzy hangs up the phone and shoves it in his pocket. Izzy runs over to his car and climbs in. He starts it up, he doesn't take off immediately he sets there with his hand on his forehead.)
Izzy-(To Himself.) "Troy really opened my heart... I've got so many emotions flowing through right now. I don't know what I should do next, Troy opened the flood gates and reminded me what I've went through and it's got me striving to chase victory like I chased victory in GWA... He reminded me of the brother hood that he adopted me into... The Royal Horsemen... He reminded me that he's the one that introduced me to the love of my life, my future wife... He reminded me that I'm from the streets... He's got my mind wondering down a dark alley chaseing all these thoughts of the past... I'm glad he did this... Now I'm going to Summer Break Down like my oldself."
(Izzy takes off in the car after clearing his mind. He drives for a while before we end up at his D.C. apartment. We follow him up to his apartment where we see all the lights on, the television is off, Izzy throws the keys to his car on the coffee table. As he tosses them down he sees a white stick, it's a pregnacy test. Izzy picks it up and his eyes go wide, it's positive. Izzy puts it back down and walks into the kitchen looking for Rosie, he finds her with her eyes red anf puffy from crying. She looks up at Izzy. Izzy walks over and gets on his knees.)
Rosie- "Did you see it ?"
(Izzy nods, Rosie burrows her head in Izzys chest and begins to cry.)
Izzy- "Don't be upset, this is a blessing... we're going to have a baby. We're going to be parents. This is amazing."
(Rosie brings her head up and wipes her eyes.)
Rosie- "So you're not mad ?"
Izzy- "Why would I be ? I'm happy that we're going to be starting our family... and I've been putting it off for a couple weeks but I think now will make things a little bit better..."
(Izzy reaches in his pocket and pulls out the ring case with the ring he bought weeks ago in it out. He opens it up and Rosies eyes go wide. Her hands go over her mouth and her cheeks become flushed red.)
Izzy- "Will you marry me ?"
(Rosie is in such shock that she just nods her head YES. Izzy smiles big and puts the ring on her finger. He stands up and gives her a big hug and a kiss on the lips. So, our scene ends with a great story told for this day, A catch up of two brothers that are not blood related but have been through so mucht hat they have the bond of brothers, A family is being started by two people that love on another to pieces, and the family will be united by a marriage.)
