| "THE CHRISTOPHER SABERTOOTH SHOW"EPISODE 4 The camera pans around an auditorium with a large group of people of different race, gender and ages, assembled. They eagerly wait in anticipation as the feed transfers to a different camera, now with the stage being front and center. “Laughing” by The Guess Who echoes throughout the auditorium as a single spotlight appears over the stage. The red curtains are drawn open as Christopher Sabertooth stands in the middle of the stage, with a fancy suit on. He begins to dance to the song as some backup dancers join him in the act. He gracefully does a spin to end the act as the audience claps for the man. He fixes his suit and and bows before the lights across the auditorium are back on. The screen at the back of the stage has ‘The Christopher Sabertooth Show’ written in a stylized font. “Thank you! Thank you! Ladies and Gentlemen, I am proud to announce that the Christopher Sabertooth show is BACK in action at Wrestleworld!! Everybody kept asking me when they’ll get the next episode, so here I am! It’s lovely to be out here tonight and be standing in front of a LOVELY audience. Are you guys excited?!” Questioned Sabertooth as the crowd scream yes in response. “Good! Episode 4! We have come so far and I am glad that everybody enjoys listening to my story. In three episodes, we covered the rise and fall of Havoc.” Said Sabertooth as the crowd boos at the mention of that name.“It’s alright! Shit happens! I am not the type of guy to hold grudges and I don’t expect my audience to do that either. So, we forgive him, don't we?!” Exclaimed Sabertooth, as some people scream yes in response while others choose to stay quiet.“Glad that we are on the same page! Now, where were we? Ah yes! What do I have in plan for you people tonight?! Well, you might have heard about Wrestleworld’s Violent Ends, coming this Sunday! And of course, I compete in a very important match! A match that can make or break my journey at Wrestleworld. The European Championship will be on the line as I face Tristan Killebrew!!” Exclaimed Sabertooth as there’s a mixed reaction for the man he mentioned. “... And Babayka!!” The crowd boos in unison for the European Architect. *Pfft* "That’s not very nice. I truly feel like Babayka is misunderstood. He may be devoid of emotion, but there’s something that keeps Babayka going. After all, he’s a kid at heart. It’s a cruel world that changed him into the monster that we see today. Nobody truly knows about Babayka. Trust me, I have tried. But everything about his past and his true identity is kept a secret. He is no one! But at the same time, we all have a little bit of a monster inside of us. All of you people here today… Why do you watch movies? Or even enjoy watching wrestling, for that part. Escapism! Our mind loves to think about a life that we don’t have than the one we live in. We want to forget our problems and enjoy over the top characters tell stories that only exist in fantasies. What does Babayka feel? Does he imagine a better life for himself or is he devoid of all emotion through the unfortunate accident that took away his innocence? Or was it the people that FORCED him to become a monster and do their ill bidding. For all the horror that he had to witness, Babayka was blessed with immeasurable power! It’s funny how God works his magic. Maybe… Maybe that’s what it takes to become an unstoppable monster. Maybe that’s what Babayka wished for. We don’t know! The only person that can answer these questions is Babayka himself because I don’t really think that Dr. Erik Vance knows anything about Babayka. He holds the leash to an unstoppable force but for how long? His mind may not have developed but even he can see the destruction and chaos he leaves in his wake. It’s all about pain and survival, for that’s how he has lived his life! And yet-- yet he chose myself and Tristan as opponents. Either we are being fed a false narrative or Babayka isn’t as devoid of mental fortitude, as we think he is.” Explained Sabertooth as the crowd gasped at that thought. “Both the cases give us a reason to be alarmed. Either Babayka is nothing but an unstoppable weapon that can be programmed to do whatever is asked of him, or Babayka can break free! He can see that he is being held back from unleashing his true potential and destroy everything that we love. This is actually a terrifying thought, that I have to overcome before Sunday because I am left with no choice. Whatever I do-- Heck, even if Tristan and I work together, I am not sure we can keep him down for long. Unless-- Unless there’s something inside Babayka that isn’t inhumane like the rest of him. What if-- What if he doesn’t want to take part in all of this? What if he is being forced to become a weapon? I cannot IMAGINE a life in constant pain and suffering, knowing that everything that you have ever loved has been reduced to ashes. That’s not a life ANYBODY wants to live. Even Babayka would have preferred death over living in agony. But I don’t believe he was given a choice. The Soviet’s probably saw an opportunity, realizing this man cannot feel pain. Realizing that he had been gifted with inhuman strength. Realizing that his mind had been destroyed beyond repair, waiting to be programmed to whatever the need be! I believe that Babayka is in constant misery!! Babayka is in need of help but nobody sees it!... But I do! This man chose me not because of my talents in the ring… He wants to be saved! He wants to die! He wants to be with his family but these people won’t let him! But is he unkillable at this point? Honestly, I don’t want to find it out but I have been left with no choice! Wrestleworld doesn’t really care about our safety! They put me and Tristan, straight into the lion’s den and now we have to fight our way out of this.” Said Sabertooth, with a worried look on his face. But his expression quickly changes as he tries to lighten the mood for the crowd.“Don’t you people worry! I will be fine! I know exactly what Babayka can do and I will be more careful when facing him. But I will do exactly what I feel is right when it comes to Babayka. He has lived in pain and misery for far too long and cruel people that keep him going should be punished as well! They have made a monster of a child's misery! And Dr. Erik Vance, he should be punished as well! I agree with Tristan had to say. Is Babayka the one interested in us or is it YOU? You love exploiting others problems don’t know you? That’s why you want to see Havoc. But we’re not stupid, Vance. Do you think Dr. Erik Vance DESERVES to be punished?” Questioned Sabertooth as the crowd scream ‘yes’ in unison. “Do you think that Babayka has been wronged?” He questioned once again as the crown agree with the statement.“Babayka may not be capable of expressing his misery, but YOUR voices will be heard. OUR voices will be heard! Wrestleworld have made it clear where the stand, having Babayka be one of their Architects. They are encouraging this behavior and WE will not take any of it! They want Babayka to hold on to that European Championship for as long as he can, but we can’t let that happen! There WILL be a change in Wrestleworld and ALL OF US together will bring it to life! It starts with me winning the European Championship at Violent Ends, freeing Babayka of his duties. Dr. Erik Vance, you better not show up or you will not walk out of Violent Ends in one piece. Babayka! Your soul has been trapped in that body for far too long! You need to be free! You WILL be free! When I look at you, I don’t see a monster. I see a helpless man, waiting to be liberated. All the sins you committed were never your own! At Sunday, you will realize it! I see you for who you are! I see the REAL you, Babayka! These people wanted to hate you but now they empathize with you. You may have it worse than anybody else but these people aren’t perfect either! They are bound by the shackles of the system, just like you! They are bound to their duties, just like you are. While they have a choice, you don’t! So… We will make that choice for you. WE will set you free, Babayka! And you can finally be with your family! All you have to do… Is take my hand.” He said, as a faint smirk appears over his face. “Hey! I know! Let’s try to simulate how Babayka, Tristan and I will fare at Violent Ends! Please enjoy!” He said as he slowly walked off the stage while the curtains were drawn shut. A few moments later, the open up once again to reveal three men dressed up as Tristan, Sabertooth and Babayka standing in a makeshift ring. A fast paced action music starts playing around the auditorium as Tristan and Sabertooth work together trying to bring Babayka down. They have Babayka on his knees but he powers through, laying both of them out. Babayka picks up Tristan and hits a back-breaker over his knee, letting the pain settle. Sabertooth tries to hit the running knee but Babayka catches him. He gets hit with a Discus Lariat. Both men are down as Babayka looks on to finish his opposition. Babayka picks both of them up and goes for the double Chokeslam. Tristan and Sabertooth hit Babayka in the gut. They fight back! They constant hit him with big moves and high flying action sending Babayka down to the canvas. Tristan and Sabertooth pick up Babayka and throw him out of the ring. They stand face to face-- But suddenly the “real” Christopher Sabertooth walks onto the stage and climbs into the ring, as the actors look clueless. He has a smile on his face as he stares them down. He takes out a handgun and ‘shoots’ Sabertooth and Tristan, as they crumple down to the floor. What appears to be ‘blood’ splurges all over the stage as Sabertooth now walks towards Babayka. He has a devious smile on his face as he lifts Babayka up to his feet-- He shoots him right in the head. Without a second lost, he throws Babayka’s limp body into the ring and puts ‘Sabertooth’ on top of him. He falls down for the cover… 1. 2. 3. The crowd are unsure of what just transpired in front of them as Sabertooth’s theme song hits the auditorium. “Ladies and Gentlemen, put your hands together for your winner AND NEW European Champion, CHRRRISSTTTOOOOOPHEEER SAAAAABBEEEERTOOOOOTH!!!” He exclaimed as a confused audience clap.
“Come on, he deserves a louder applause than that! Look at him! What a hard fought battle! That’s how this match will go down. Any questions?” He asked. Some people in the audience raise their hand, to which he selects one of them. A microphone is handed to the audience member.
“Uh. So, you just killed yourself there? Like-- How does it represent the match at Violent Ends?” Asked the audience member.
“Good question! You see, it’s very simple. Dr. Erik Vance and Babayka wants the real me! So, that’s what I will be giving to them. So we have no time for fakes, like the ones lying in the ring at the moment. I want to liberate Babayka and if that means that I will have to stop Tristan Killebrew along the way, then so be it! That’s how this match will go down! Does that answer your question?” He asked as the audience member reluctantly shakes his head. “Anybody else?” He asked.
“I guess not! So, what have we learned today? Say it with me! We empathize with Babayka! We will save him! We empathize with Babayka! We will save him! WE EMPATHIZE WITH BABAYKA! WE WILL SAVE HIM! It doesn’t matter what it takes! It doesn’t matter what it does to my body. And it certainly does not matter what happens to Tristan Killebrew. He wants this match to prove his worth and show everybody that he is a ‘changed man’. But to beat a monster like Babayka, you cannot simply be a man. You have to be MUCH MORE than that! And that’s not what Tristan has in him. That’s not who he is, and that’s alright! He will play an important part in this change that we all want to see! He has chosen to help us bring Babayka to justice. And if he doesn’t fall in line with our ways, then he will suffer too! And I don’t want that! Only the best man can win but Babayka is not like any other man! So, how do we expect to beat somebody like him while being a mere wrestler. No! NO! Harry Sterling tried that and he failed! He expects more from us, Tristan! He chose us for a reason! His time is coming to an end and it’s now upon us to act on it and finish what he started. Babayka wants freedom and we hold the keys to the chains tied around his neck. We will free this man from all of his misery, for ‘tis the season of celebration! Tristan… You see what the problem is, don’t you? I see it! These people see it! All you have to do is hold my hand--- And we will end the chapter of Babayka from Wrestleworld. His fate is in our hands, Tristan! Dr. Erik Vance can’t stop us. Jaywalker can’t stop us. And after that? We can carry on with our business and decide who the best wrestler truly is. But Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring to you our final segment of the night! A video to commemorate our journey.” He said as the lights go off around the auditorium and a projector plays a video on the stage background.
A Piano can be heard playing a classic Bach as Sabertooth is seen walking through the curtains of Wrestleworld. He is seen competing in the six man tag, doing a moonsault to his opponents on the outside. He hits the Saber Impaler on Stephanie Matsuda before being thrown out of the ring by Reno Dumont. Then the video changes to the highlights of Sabertooth’s match against Reno Dumont, beating him, before heading towards the first big show from Wrestleworld, Violent Delights. Sabertooth is seen using the ladder as a weapon, hitting double foot stomps off the top of the ladder. The highlight also includes Tristan’s ladder hop into a hurricanrana sending Sabertooth to the canvas. And finally, his match against Tristan, where these two locked horns and went to war. The music picks up, slowly as a Guitar kicks in, adding a more metal sound to the track, as action picks up. The video fast forwards to Babayka attacking the referee and their eventual visit of Babayka’s carnival. The final imagery of the video shows the lights of the carnival turning off as the camera zooms out of Sabertooth and Tristan-- Suddenly the video changes tone. A dark brooding sound takes over as weird satanic imagery appear on the screen. An empty rocking chair is seen, front and center, oscillating in erratic nature. Suddenly a figure appears sitting in the chair. Sabertooth is seen wearing similar clothes to what he was at the show and he has a devious smile on his face. The camera zooms in on his face-- His eyes are blacked out and a devilish figure appears behind him, before the video goes static.
The lights come back on as Christopher Sabertooth, stands in the middle of the ring. He has a barbed wire bat in hand and a devious smile to boot. The three actors are still lying on the stage in a puddle of ‘blood’. Sabertooth just walks over them, like they don’t even exist.
“I appreciate your support! At Violent Ends, there will be a change of guard. Babayka will be free! And I will be the European Champion! A revolution shall be born! Are you guys with me?” He exclaimed as the crowd cheer. “Good! Very good! Once again, thank you for coming here. Thank you for taking my hand. I promise you… You will never walk alone.” He smiled as the curtains slowly are drawn. A woman is seen crying and running towards the stage checking on the actors lying there before the curtains are fully drawn shut. There is an awkward silence in the crowd as the camera slowly pans around to bring them on the screen-- Only to find that everybody in the audience have a black and white face paint on. Men, women and children, all the same.
Fade to black.
