In a cinematic scene Jason is sitting in front of a mirror wearing a gray wool suit whilst being in a solid white room. Looking back at him is the image of The Scourge. Jason has a look of scorn on his face, his lip is curled, he looks disgusted. The Scourge mirrors the facial expression. Jason smooths out his suit, looking pristine as always. The Scourge is caked in mud and grime.
Jason sighs and shakes his head
Why must you haunt me so my dear friend? You know I cannot permit you to take control.
The Scourge gives a demonic growl as it’s cold lifeless eyes look at Jason. When it speaks, it’s voice sounds like a knife scraping against stone.
You have ruined everything we have built by settling for a life of complacency! Now look at you! A joke, a jobber! You have ruined your own creation in The Bloodline and you have the nerve to not even care! The Jason I know would never have settled for such mediocrity!
Jason waves a hand as if batting away an insect
Minor bumps in the road. Besides, if I didn’t get such fodder matches, maybe I’d be more inclined to give a shit. But no, all I get is matches that no one is going to watch anyway so why bother putting forth any sort of effect? A man of my distinction isn’t going to be bothered by meaningless matches.
The Scourge growls again
Have you forgotten the rule of chaos we enjoyed so easily?
Jason sips a glass of gin
I’m a far more sophisticated man now. I am a man of class, a man of luxury. Such depths like what you pulled with our last opponent are why I keep you sealed away
The Scourge snarls
I was told they would be the real parents Jason Heinsmerc Ryan! Instead you gave me cheap body doubles?!
Your barbaric tactics have nearly been the end of me in the past demon. I told you before, I am in control of this vessel we share.
The Scourge lets out a hiss
You humiliated us! You made us look like fools!
Legion Legion Legion
Jason says putting his glass down and folding his arms
I humiliated you. I told you to not pull those tactics.
The Scourge looks at Jason, its eyes sparkling with fury
You need me and you know it! You are nothing without me! Your newfound path has poisoned your mind!
Jason scoffs
I merely found my true calling Legion.
Calling?! By playing pathetic roles for motion pictures?! This is what has you satisfied?!
It’s served me well, I have so much money I don’t even know what to do with it all.
You’ve become weak Jason. You have become a complacent fool!
Perhaps that is how you see it Legion but you know me. Just biding my time.
You cannot even admit it! If your father were still alive he’d disown you!
Jason’s smug expression flickers
Watch it demon
The Scourge notices it hurt a nerve and laughs mockingly
Did I anger you?! Good! Perhaps now you will cease in your uselessness!
Jason’s face turns a faint shade of red
Useless?! If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even be here! Some “ King of Depravity” you are. Here let me bow before you sire!
Jason gets on his knees and bows to him. The Scourge lashes out at him
Do NOT mock me! I’ll not be made a fool of!
Jason gets up and brushes of his suit
Nor will I Legion
The Scourge laughs scornfully
You are a buffoon Jason! Your ego, your narcissism, your elitism, is laughable. You fill the void that grows inside you with each loss by buying material items! You are the biggest fool I’ve ever met!
Jason’s eye twitches
Silence demon
You are a disgrace!
I’m a disgrace? I’m a disgrace?! Look at you! You who was once the king of demons. Look at you now! How the mighty have fallen!
A hate filled hiss comes from The Scourge
Such arrogance! I have allowed you too much control!
Jason closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, trying to regain his composure
It is I should never have let you awaken Legion. Your never sated hunger for destruction is proving to be more trouble than you are worth. I’m afraid I can’t set you free again.
The Scourge roars in fury and lunges at Jason. Jason has no time to prepare himself as The Scourge tackles him, barring its yellow fans at Jason’s throat. Jason manages to throw off the demon and scrambles to his feet. The Scourge lashes out with a clawed hand and catches Jason across the cheek. Jason yelps and holding his cheek. When he looks back, The Scourge is gone. Jason looks around frantically, blood having soaked his palm and falling onto the white ground. The only evidence The Scourge was ever there is the broken mirror.
Ah fuck!
Jason yells and steps back. He is in a beautiful Victorian inspired kitchen. He was previously chopping vegetables before his outburst and is now holding his left hand, looking down at it horrified. The ring finger on his left hand is hanging on by a thread. Blood steadily flows on his marble kitchen floor, the dripping of the blood being the only sound despite Jason’s pained breathing. Jason holds his nearly severed finger and takes a deep breath.
I need to get to the ER
He mutters before glaring at the cameraman
Turn the fucking camera off idiot!
He yells at the camera man before running off.

The camera is now focused on a massive painted portrait of Jason wearing his usual smug expression and a black silk suit, sitting in a lavish chair, holding on to a glass of wine with a tiger at his feet hanging in the kitchen. As the camera fades to black, the eyes of the portrait seem to resemble the eyes of The Scourge.
