Damon Warrens sits in the home of his original partner and still husband Nathan Warrens. The two men along with their adopted son Christian are set up at a glass table in a small side room that has been made into a breakfast nook. The table looks magazine esque with beautiful plated portions of crepes and berries. The three eat in silence for a while before Damon sets down his cutlery, wipes his mouth and clears his throat.
Damon: So I know I left it in mystery as to why I wanted to come over and talk to the both of you.
Nathan: Yeah... honestly at this point I just go with the flow. You're expectedly unexpected... I always know that I'll never know what you'll say or do next.. part of the thrill of being married to you.
Damon: Fair point. So I wanted to talk to you both about something very serious and important to me. It's something I've been thinking about for a few months, but now I feel certain in my decision.
Christian: Well spit it out Ryan Seacrest.. gotta build up the suspense dont'cha?
Christian looks at his father with a sassy eyebrow raise as the Nitemare sends back an eye roll to his son.
Damon: Well then.. getting to the point. I am thinking of giving Jaime a commitment ring.. and having a commitment ceremony. Since this country will not allow poly-marriages it's the closest thing I can give him and it feels like the right thing to do.
A silence hangs over the room for an awkward few seconds before Nathan breaks it.
Nathan: That's it... ? Oh god I thought you were going to say you murdered someone.. Yeah I think that's a great idea love! Jaime seems absolutely wonderful and you have been so happy with him!
Christian: Yeah he's great!
Damon: Well...okay then. I just wanted to talk to you both about it because it's a big deal.. and it makes a change to our dynamic... and it's a big commitment that I'd like you both to be a part of.
Christian: Of course! I think obviously besides dad he's the nicest guy you've banged!
Nathan: CHRISTIAN! NOT APPROPRIATE!
Christian stifles a laugh as his father gives him a stern look. Nathan then turns to Damon and his faces becomes softer and happier.
Nathan: Absolutely we would love to be a part of it all. Have you picked out a ring yet to propose with?
Damon: ...... no.
Nathan: Of course you haven't and now you're hoping I will go help you pick one out, which you know I'll say yes to because I'm the best husband ever?
Damon: ... Yes.
Nathan: We can go after breakfast, but you're buying me something nice too... it's my fee for helping.
Damon: Yes dear..
Nathan: Ahhh my favourite words...
The scene fades out as the three Warrens boys finish their food.
---------------------------------------------------
The pair of husbands pull up to a high end jewelry store in downtown San Diego. Damon and Nathan exit Nathan's pink Lamborghini convertible. Nathan presses the lock button on his keys and the two men head inside. Wall to wall display cases hold various diamond rings, necklaces, and earrings. Upon their entrance they are greeted by a young woman in a pantsuit. She has long blonde hair and a bright smile.
Mariah: Good afternoon gentlemen! My name is Mariah can I assist you boys in finding anything today?
Nathan: Yes he's looking for an engagement ring.
Mariah: Oh! Very exciting! Tell me about the lucky lady.
Damon: Man..
Mariah: My apologies, how long have you two been together?
Damon: We're nearing one year now.
Mariah: Well congratulations! Now did you have anything in mind? Have you done any research ahead of time?
Damon shakes his head and Mariah nods knowingly. It seems she's dealt with quite a few customers who come into the store blindly shopping.
Mariah: I'm not going to lie, I kind of figured. You seemed a little overwhelmed when you walked in. Now I have a couple of questions that will help us narrow it down a bit. Were you thinking of a more traditionally male wedding band or a more feminine engagement ring?
Damon contemplates this question for a few moments. When he pictures Jaime proudly wearing the ring he sees a proper engagement ring as flashy and beautiful as he is.
Damon: Engagement ring.
Mariah: Were you thinking something simple or more extravagant? And do you have a budget?
Damon: Budget isn't really an issue. And more extravagant preferably.
Mariah: Wonderful, so we have a couple of designers I want to show you if you'd follow me.
Mariah leads the way with Damon and Nathan following in tow. She brings them to a glass case in the back that seems to have some of the more expensive items. A security guard stands nearby watching the two men like a hawk as they approach. Upon peering into the case Damon is nearly blinded by the sparkling jewelry.
Mariah: So we have a few different designers: Harry Winston, De Beers, Tiffany's.. Does designer matter to you?
Damon: Not particularly.
Mariah: Well perfect. So if you'd like to take a look in here... I will warn you these rings in this case start at five thousand and go up to thirty.
Damon nods and looks carefully at the rings. He spies a few gold bands with large diamonds, but the simplicity of them bores the Nitemare. As his eyes scan across the case Nathan walks away to look at some necklaces. Damon's gaze falls upon an extravagant band of white gold. Upon the metal are several small meticulously mounted in a swirl like pattern. A large clear diamond is the centerpiece of the ring, surrounded by smaller diamonds. That aside the feature that really sparks Damon's curiosity is the presence of small emeralds accenting all of the diamonds.
Mariah notices how entranced the Canadian is with the ring and with the security guard looming over she brings the ring out for Damon to look at. The Devil Himself looks the piece over carefully and then looks at Mariah with a nod.
Mariah: Wonderful choice! Now this will cost nineteen thousand before taxes..
Damon: Price is no concern. I'll take it...and presumably whatever my husband is picking out over there..
Mariah is taken back by the reveal of Nathan being Damon's husband, but pushes that aside to focus on the fact she's landed a huge sale. She gets the sale set up for both the ring, and a white gold necklace Nathan picked for himself and almost twenty-five thousand dollars later Damon finds himself holding the ring with which he will show Jaime his commitment. They two men exit the store and Nathan drives the two back to his house before Damon leaves on his motorcycle to head to his and Jaime's home.
-------------------------------------
Upon reaching their home Damon slips the ring box into his jacket and tries to sneak into the house, but it caught by Jaime who looks like he just finished a workout.
Jaime: Hey babe! How was Nathan's?
Damon: It was.. normal. Nothing exciting.
Jaime: Okay then... so what do you want to do now that you're home? Maybe movie night?
Damon: I have to go film a promo against Aquarius.
Jaime: Oh perfect! I can help!
Damon: No.
Jaime raises a brow and is a bit taken back at the sternness in Damon's voice.
Damon: We're going out tonight. Go freshen up and dress nicely while I go film.
Jaime: Okay... whatever you say.
Jaime goes upstairs to do just that. Damon waits to hear the shower running before he heads down the hall to film his promo. Damon enters the now familiar red room with his hellish throne. He turns on the camera across the room and the APW fans first view is a pacing Nitemare.
Damon: Architect's Pro Wrestling.. your champion is here to spread the gospel of the Devil Himself once more. Almost two weeks ago I slaughtered a giant... a giant who now tries to infiltrate my inner circle while openly threatening its monarch. Before I move on to my challenge at hand I must first discuss the elephant in the room... The Sitch. You're mad that somehow you ended up getting busted open near the end of our encounter. Now you spout accusations of blading and cheating.. well here's the Situation... regardless of whatever excuses you concoct to explain why you weren't able to unseat the king the fact is that you just couldn't reach the brass ring I dangled over your head. Despite Smitty's apparent faith in you... you aren't Architect quality. You are not one of us... you fit a purpose for us. You were a counter for Soul Reaver and nothing more. You were a place holder while I was busy fairly refereeing the match to decide my first challenger for my APW World Championship. You. Are. Not. An. Architect.
As Damon says the last words he grows more stern with each. As he finishes he looks away from the camera off into some imaginary distance as his focus switches.
Damon: Now one Situation has been dealt with, I find myself in a new one. On Monday I counted the three and with that selected the man who will challenge me at Gods of Wrestling... Architect Pro's most important event of the year. Andre Aquarius now finds himself in for the challenge of a lifetime. But just as the Cowgirls from Hell refused to allow me time to soak in my victory... I gave you the same treatment. Within seconds you were on the ground yet another victim of Justifiable Homicide. As my dear fan Remi stated you stepped into the Devil's ring and you now know what awaits you when we meet one on one. It will be in a lot of ways similar to our last meeting, but in a very important way.. painfully different.
Flashes of the number one contender's battle royal from Liberty or Death interrupt the feed.
Damon: When we met before you had twelve other men to hide behind. Twelve sacrifices to the Devil Himself so you wouldn't have to fall at my hands. When we meet next you won't have anywhere to hide... you won't have any human shields to protect you. A simple toss over the rope won't end your suffering. That all being said the result will be no different. An underestimated Damon Warrens will stand tall while a dejected and overly cocky Andre Aquarius tucks his tail between his legs and runs away like the vermin he is.
Damon stops his pacing and points up as a memory comes to mind.
Damon: You know.. before our match at Liberty or Death you had little to say about me. It showed just how much of an afterthought you had decided that I would be. You told the world that I was overproduced drivel giving the world nothing of value. That's it. Just like every opponent I have faced in this company you made the mistake of looking past me. I am going to give you the best advice anyone ever could Andre. Never look past me.
The Nitemare pauses for a moment before he chuckles.
Damon: You know.. I can only imagine what I'll hear when you do decide to cut your promo on me. In fact I'm going to do the APW fans here a favour and save them the few minutes they'd waste listening to you. APW what can you expect? Diction and enunciation? Not going to be present. Words that I will not repeat for obvious reasons? A plethora. Will Andre make ridiculous claims about how good he is and how he is some Yung Gawd whatever that means? Yeah probably. Will he somehow work in something that sounds a little.... offensive about his opponents being women or Hispanic or... gay? Odds are high. Is it all a lot of hot air from a man who's only victory of note occurred because of a crooked ref- I mean fair officiant? Precisely.
Warrens sits down in the throne with a sigh.
Damon: You've called me overproduced Andre.. so I'm going to sit here and talk to you man to man. No pomp and circumstance. No Devil Himself. No Yung Gawd. Just Damon and Andre. You're .... okay. Are you better than a lot of fighters here? Ehhhh yeah sure. But do you know what overshadows the little talent you have? Your mouth. That's the only real interest point you have. You talked your way into a job after being fired from Action Wrestling for having such a miserable attitude. You talked your way into the battle royal despite being unproven in this company.. an opportunity which you squandered. You then talked your way into another number one contender's opportunity and only really won because I decided to give you the fall. All you've ever done is talk. And that's all you'll ever do. Your actions will never back up your words. That's what makes me so much different from you Andre. You are surface value. There's not substance to anything you do. You set yourself up with no follow through.
Damon leans forward and rests his chin on his fists.
Damon: I have always followed through on my words. When I came here as a nobody that everybody thought was a flash in the pan.. I told the world they were wrong. When I walked into a battle royal and every opponent proclaimed that I was nothing.. I revealed their words to be as you once said.. overproduced drivel. When I found myself battling against the best wrestler in the business and even he said that I was in over my head... I took his crown. I have followed through on my commitments Andre. So I'm going to make another commitment. I promise that I Damon Warrens will bring the Yung Gawd back to the sad reality he tries to escape from with his over the top persona. I promise that I Damon Warrens will once again stand tall over the gibberish speaking loud mouth. I promise that I will reign over this kingdom for a very long time.
Damon takes a ring box out of his jacket and looks at it for a moment.
Damon: Now I must bid you all adieu for I must go make one more very special commitment, but fear not.. you'll be hearing from me again very soon.
Damon walks out of the shot and the feed cuts out.
----------------------------------------
Damon hides the ring again and heads upstairs to get ready as stealthily as can be so that Jaime has no chance to see the ring being transferred to his suit jacket. Once he has donned his favourite merlot red suit he waits for Jaime downstairs. The two men exit the house and pass Damon's motorcycle in the driveway opting instead to click a button on Damon's keys opening up the garage revealing a jet black Bugatti Chiron. The two get in and Damon starts the car before speeding off towards a beautiful park. Damon parks the car and the two get out. They walk along a stone pathway passing a park and some fountains on the way.
Jaime: Soo not going to complain that I'm out with you.. and we got to take the Bugatti.. but why did you make me get dressed up so we could go to a city park?
Damon: I thought with so much of my focus being on work as of late that it was time I focused on doing something nice for you.
Jaime: Aww well that's very sweet babe, but again...why are we in a park?
Damon: You do realize that this is where we went after our first date right? We went to the San Diego Zoo and then I took you here and we walked this path both of us with ice cream in hand... it's been nearly a year since that day.
Jaime: That's right! I completely forgot! With everything going on these last few months it slipped my mind.
Damon: I wanted to come to the place where it all started to talk to you about something very important.
Jaime stops and there's a hint of nervousness in his voice when he speaks.
Jaime: Is everything okay babe?
Damon: Yes. Jaime.. the last year has been a rollercoaster for me and yet through all of the bumps you never left my side. You supported me when CCP seemingly disappeared off the face of the Earth. You cheered me on when I went to vanquish my last ghost in PCW. You have been in my corner in APW...hell you even put yourself in harms way for me. You're genuinely one of the most amazing people I've met and with that in mind...
Damon drops down to one knee and pulls out the ring box revealing the engagement ring to a very emotional Jaime who is already nodding in answer to the question Damon has yet to ask. Damon stands up, places the ring on Jaime's finger and the two embrace in a passionate kiss.. too occupied to noticed the sound of several footsteps approaching.
? ? ?: Awww boys isn't that sweet? Two little Cali fags falling in love.. would be a shame if someone ruined their moment..
Before Damon can look to see the owner of the voice everything blacks out and a sickening CRACK echoes throughout the park and just like Damon the scene fades to black.
Damon: So I know I left it in mystery as to why I wanted to come over and talk to the both of you.
Nathan: Yeah... honestly at this point I just go with the flow. You're expectedly unexpected... I always know that I'll never know what you'll say or do next.. part of the thrill of being married to you.
Damon: Fair point. So I wanted to talk to you both about something very serious and important to me. It's something I've been thinking about for a few months, but now I feel certain in my decision.
