Blasts from the Past

The snow wasn’t staying on the ground as long, the mud was drying quicker, and temperature was bouncing up and down, all of this meaning one thing; spring was coming to Cleveland, Ohio. It was warm enough for the children to play outside, so on Saturday morning, after they finished their breakfast, all three of them conspired to drag their six foot eight inch, two hundred and eighty five pound father out the door and into the playground him and his brothers had built for them two summers prior.

Lucius watched as his children played on the swing, slide, bars, and other implements. The three eight year old children had been delighted when they’d first seen it. Lucius and three of his brothers spent several days putting it all together, after making a fair amount of the parts by hand at Lucius’ workshop across town. He smiled as he began setting up his camera equipment. After finishing it, he turned the camera on and began recording.

Lucius: Gabriel Tuck, I didn’t get a chance to tell you at the previous event, but welcome back to SCW. Yeah, I remember you. I remember you getting a shot or two at the Alternative Championship, but never being able to secure it. Hell, I don’t hold it against you. Once Emily Desmond got her claws on it, nobody could take it from her. For nearly two years, she ruled the Alternative Division, turning back all who challenged her, until the only challenger left was one who was forced to wait. Paige Lewis vs Emily Desmond, two women who have left their mark on SCW met in the ring, and it finally happened.

The big man smirked as he glanced at his children for a moment before he continued.

Lucius: Which, it’s funny you bring up Paige Lewis. If I recall correctly, and I very likely do, you’ve already crossed paths with her. In fact, you broke her nose and knocked her out in a match, and she still came back to win it. Paige Lewis has been proving for years that the rest of us aren’t on her level. By god, it took everything my wife had to beat her, and even Brian Kennedy had to cripple her to try to win. Let me level with you, though…I’d stay away from Paige Lewis for the time being, I don’t know exactly what is going on with her, Princess Kiya, and now Urakih, but…I think you should focus more on things that concern you…like somehow getting in the ring with me, Lucius Tendonin, SCW’s first Alternative Champion. Get passed me, and then maybe you can aim your sights a bit higher, man. After that, if you think you’ve got the sauce to dethrone Paige Lewis, go for it.

Sitting back in his chair more comfortably, Lucius began rubbing his chin while pressing the stop button on the remote for the camera. When they children was ready to come inside, he herded them in and started the fireplace so they could warm up and then began uploading his video to SCW servers.
