{Scene opens with Rollin' Ryan Dice getting out of an elevator in a hotel somewhere in the Los Angeles area... Ryan is wearing a sweat soaked wife beater and a pair of black workout pants with his gym bag over his shoulder and a bottle of water in his other hand... He continues walking down the hall until he sees that the door to his room is wide open. Ryan walks into the room and sees Kate sitting on the edge of the bed crying. Ryan drops his bag and his bottle of water and walks over to her.}

Ryan: What's wrong baby?

Kate: Brian...

Ryan: What? What about him?

Kate: Brian was just here Ryan...

Ryan: What the fuck! Did he touch you?

Kate: No Ryan... He said he just wanted to send a message to you...

Ryan: A message!?!?!?

(Kate wipes the tears from her eyes and tries to calm herself down.)

Kate: He was telling me all kind of stuff about you are weak because you love me and all kind of other stuff...

Ryan: What kind of other stuff?

Kate: I don't know Ryan, I was just hoping he would leave...

Ryan: Can you remember anything else he said?

Kate: Just that he only wanted the best for you when he asked you to join the Mutiny and that you were the last person he thought would ever turn your back on him...

Ryan: God Damnit! BG has no idea what the hell he just got himself into... Look Kate, you don't need to be around this okay... Lets pack up our shit and you can stay with my parents until this Sunday... They only live like three miles from here...

Kate: But Ryan, I wanted to be with you...

Ryan: I know baby, but I don't need to worry about whether or not you're safe while I'm not around... You know you're the most important thing in the world to me Kate, but right now... I need to have my full attention on Brian... So, start packing up and I'll drop you off at my parents house... You'll be safe there...

Kate: Okay Ryan...

(Ryan and Kate hug each other as the scene fades to Rollin' Ryan Dice pulling up to the Staples Center in his jet black Plymouth Prowler. Ryan steps out of the car and heads for the arena entrance. He walks into the building and starts to walk towards the locker room area when he is approached by Paul Sandler.)

Paul: Hey Ryan, what are you doing here?

Ryan: Is Brian here yet?

Paul: Well, no Ryan... The show isn't for another three days...

Ryan: Yeah, but I heard he had a press conference yesterday so I was hoping he'd be around...

Paul: You're not going to cause anymore trouble, are you?

(Ryan grabs Paul by the neck and slams him up against a wall.)

Ryan: Paul, I'm not in the mood for your bullshit... You tell Brian when he gets here that he's a fucking dead man...

(Ryan lets go of Paul's neck and Paul falls to the ground trying to catch his breathe. Ryan starts to walk further down the hall until he comes to Blake Armstrong's office. Ryan opens the door and finds Blake sitting at his desk filling out paper work for Betrayal. Blake looks up and is shocked to see Ryan standing there.)

Blake: What do you want?

Ryan: First of all, take the attitude out of your voice before I beat it out of you... And second of all, I want you to do something for me...

Blake: What?

Ryan: This match with BG this Sunday, I want it to be no DQ and I want you to make sure that nobody interferes in this match...

Blake: I can't make any stipulations, without BG agreeing to them first...

Ryan: Your, the fucking Owner... Make sure it gets done or BG won't be the only bitch in a hospital bed after Betrayal...

Blake: Look, I know your pissed off at BG, but don't come in my office and threaten me like that ever again...

(Ryan walks over to the desk and flips it out of the way. He stares Blake in the face and Blake becomes noticeably nervous.)

Ryan: Don't think of it as a threat then, think of it as a promise...

(Ryan turns around and walks out of the door... Ryan starts to walk down the hall again when he spots Maria standing by a table, fixing herself a cup of coffee... Ryan walks up right behind her.)

Ryan: Well, isn't this ironic?

(Ryan's voice startles Maria as she drops her cup of coffee and it spills all over the table...)

Ryan: No need to be startled Maria... I'm not like that bitch that you call a boyfriend... I don't like to slap around women...

Maria: What are you talking about Ryan?

Ryan: Well, I'm sure you know about him and Angel, but what you don't know is that BG was at my hotel room earlier this morning and had a little talk with my wife...

Maria: A talk?

Ryan: Yeah... He wanted to send a message to me through my wife... So, I was thinking... Maybe I should send a message to him through you...

Maria: What?

Ryan: You tell BG that he just made the worst mistake of his life... You see, what we had was between me and him and now he wants to bring my fucking wife into the picture... This was already personal enough and now he has the nerve to fuck with my wife...

Maria: Ryan, I don't know what happened with BG and Kate but we both know BG wouldn't do anything to hurt her...

Ryan: Oh, is that right? You don't know Brian, so don't act like you do... I saw the way he slapped Angel around because of the World Title... And what you don't understand is that BG is nothing but a scared little bitch right now... See, he knows that unless he does something to get inside my head, I'll kick his ass this Sunday... But, what he needs to realize is that getting inside my head and fucking around with my personal life is only going to make me want to kick his ass even more...

Maria: Why are you telling me this?

Ryan: Maria, don't get too attached to Brian... Because after this Sunday, I'll make sure that he won't be able to walk... So, you tell that fucker to not even worry about Genocide or Smitty because win or lose this Sunday... I'll make sure that BG will never be the same again... Brian likes to call me a female and all talk all kind of shit about me not attacking him face to face... Well, if he is so much of a man, why didn't he stick around this morning... Why didn't he wait for me to show up, before he ran like the bitch that he is? You want to know why Maria?

Maria: Why?

Ryan: Because he knows that I would've killed his fucking ass... Do you understand that Maria? I wouldn't have beat his ass, I would've made sure that he was never physically able to walk again... And this Sunday, BG better pray to God that he walks out of this match alive... You see, I've already said that I couldn't care less about the World Title... That's just an added bonus... All I care about is beating the living shit out of Brain fucking Graves... So, you make sure he gets this message and you make sure he realizes that this isn't a normal match by far... I'm not like all those other bitches that he's faced... I'm not Arnold Layne... I'm not Kid fucking Galahad... and I'm sure as hell not Genocide... I know BG better than all three of those men combined and I know every strength and weakness he has and this Sunday I'm going to pick apart BG like a fucking vulture... And you know what Maria, I'm going to love every fucking second of it...

{Ryan walks away leaving Maria standing there looking nervous as the scene fades to black.}
