The scene opens up as Ember Freeman is entering the main lounge of the Pleasure Dome and immediately makes a beeline for Craven who is stood over by the main stage.
Ember: Hey Ricky not seen you for a few days, one of my dads other goons has been on guard duty, oh man the other night was epic, well at least I think it was, I don’t really remember much but a hangover that bad it must have been some night, plus there was that cute as hell barman I woke up next to BONUS!
Ember is bubbly and full of life as always (on the surface at least), she is full of smiles and mischievous grins.
Craven: Probably a good thing you can’t remember, God knows I wish I could forget it. That man sounded like some dying beast, it was… disturbing…
Ember: Ew, seriously Ricky, please try to refrain from ruining my amazing recreations of what may have happened!
Craven: We’re lucky that didn’t ruin my hearing...
Ember: Yeah well get use to it If your going to be constantly on babysitting duty thats alls im gunna say
Craven: Oh the joy
Ember: In fact it was so fun other night I cant wait to meet rest of ya crew.
Craven: After what happened with Brittany, I’m not sure what kind of mood they’re in right now.
Ember: Yeah that sucks, anyway where’s my dad I thought ide say hello.
Craven: He's in the gym, its down the hall second door on your right
Ember: Alright cool thanks see ya soon Ricky, better go say yo to the old fart
Ember cheekily grabs Cravens ass and winks as she walks past, too which Craven shakes his head looks up to the sky and mutters “just kill me already”. Ember makes her way down the hallway and bounds into the room enthusiastically. Freeman is on the weights bench in the poky little makeshift gym him and Baron cobbled together. Beads of sweat dripping down his face and deep intensity in his eyes. Ember comes up and grabs the weight bar as Freeman is finishing a rep and places it into the hold. Freeman sits up as ember hands him a towel and walks around the front.
Ember: Whats up old man
Freeman: just workin out, in times of war man must be in peak condition
Theres an intensity in Freemans voice and a look of extreme focus in his eyes. Ember sense that her farther is in a very serious mood and curbs her enthusiasm a bit, gauging now is probably not the time for her chirpy happy over the top antics.
Ember: Yeah, seriously though, you’ve changed so much dad, I don’t think ive ever seen you this focused on anything! I mean its not that long ago you lived by a moral code now, fuck dat time for kicking ass!
Freeman: We all evolve hun
Ember nods
Ember: Yea but you really must love her huh. I mean I know you’ve talked about her a lot, hell almost constantly at times, but that look in your eye its pain, real pain.
A deep glazed look is in Freemans eyes as he is like a rabbit in headlights at that question, he stares for a second before replying.
Freeman: I will do anything to get her released from them evil scum bags, ANYTHING!
It is obvious to ember that Freeman was going to great lengths to not directly answer that question, its as if the love he feels for Jade must be purged or everything would be ten times worse. Having noticed this Ember changes the subject slightly.
Ember: But why return here? Why get back in the ring? I thought you were through with it all. You could have went about getting her back without ever stepping foot in here again.
Freeman: I was done, I was finished but then I got thinking and you know what Em, sometimes over the years I’ve wonder why I bother leading the life I do. I wonder what’s the point, why do I go out of my way to try to protect the vulnerable, when ultimately I cant be there every second, ultimately sooner or later there going to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and they wont be a damn thing I can do about it.
There’s a rage almost boiling deep down inside the heart of Freeman as he is thinking about all that has gone wrong, Jade being no closer to release, Brittany being taken and returning a complete mess, not being able to get anywhere near Cole to take out his anger, its all bubbling under the surface.
BUT then people like Cole Hunter and Artemis come into the picture, people so cold, so calculated and so manipulative that even Charles Manson himself would tip his hat to them and it all becomes clear! You see hun, if it wasn’t for people like me, people who do what I do, these freaks would run the bloody world and it will be a bloody cold day in hell when I let that happen!
He is seething at this point shaking with anger and his foot tapping on the floor uncontrollably. He sees a look in Embers eye and realises this side of him may scare her a little so he calms himself a little before continuing.
Now I know why your here, hell your my flesh and blood, theres no way you are going to see your old man in a war and not want a piece of the action. But Em this is no place for you, they took Jade, they took Brittany, I mean look at the poor girl, she is a wreck, she has barely spoken a single word since she was released. I can not let that happen to you!
Ember: I can hand.......
Freeman puts his hand up in the air stopping Ember dead in her tracks.
Freeman: Yeah I know Em you’ve said it a 100 times, you can handle yourself, your a big girl now, but as your farther the want to protect you is greater than any want I have ever had! That said im not an Idiot Em, I know nothing I say or do is going to make you up sticks and leave, I know that now your here your not going anywhere, so I guess I have to accept that. However I want you to stick with Ricky and his crew at all times, safety in numbers Em safety in numbers.
Ember: Yeah dad, I can do that, but don’t complain about anything we may or may not get up to, remember you put us together, dat shits on you!
Freeman: Seriously Em we are at full scale war your party antics are the least of my worries, it would be nice if for once you could maybes calm it a little!
Em: Jeez lighten up old man, its times like these we need to party more not less, helps forget all the bullshit Cole and his crew keep throwing our way.
Freeman: Sorry for being a stick in the mud, but do you think being intoxicated and partying like a maniac is going to help you when Cole and his men are stepping towards you with zip ties and a potato sack?
Ember rolls her eyes and makes a hmmpf sound and intakes slowly and lets out a sigh.
Ember: OK dad I get it, you want me to be safe, I will try to calm it a little for now.
Freeman nods and mutters “good” as ember turns and heads towards the door, she stops and turns back half way.
Ember: Seriously though you were more fun before you became an over protective worry wart!
Freeman shakes his head and sighs as ember exits the room. Knowing he has no time to waste he lays back down on the bench and begins to pump iron once more as the scene fades to black.
Few hours later
Unknown location
The all too familiar sight of Fraser Freeman in front of a black background with a UWA logo behind it begins to air as the video feed goes live on UWA.com. Freeman looks calm and collected to begin with, almost calculated in his demeanour and approach.
Have you ever wondered if in life we are destined to go around in circles? Like no matter what you do your emotions go through the ringer in the same vicious cycle, even if the route taken differs greatly the emotional roller coaster stays the same. I do you see when I cam here I was all about my morals, I was hung up on doing the moral thing, doing what was right. Then I encountered Vince Jones and my whole world turned upside down, I lost sight of what it was I was trying to achieve, I became a monster, a wicked beast consumed by rage because Vince got under my skin. Then I saw the light, I embraced the principles I had abandoned and I sweared to uphold them, only things didn’t go as planned, I went on the worst losing streak ive had in my entire career and ultimately nearly died in a brutal contest with Vince Jones.
Freeman nods a somewhat respectful nod at the camera, giving some credit where it is due to Vince Jones. he is however seemingly very pumped up tonight and in a very emotional state, almost explosively so.
This event led me to drop my morals, drop my beliefs of what I thought was the morally right way to achieve my objectives. You see when I came back to the land of the living I realised I had been fighting for the right thing but ultimately how you achieve it doesn’t really matter as long as at the end of the day, people have been protected from the perceived threat and the threat has been neutralized.
Freeman takes a deep breath and nods his head knowing that his words don’t necessarily ring true, that he somewhat failed in holding up that end of the bargain before continuing.
But then Cole Hunter came along, he dragged me out of the shadows, he dragged me away from protecting the vulnerable people on the streets and I have to say after seeing how he operates I began to question my stance even as I was putting that useless piece of shit Craig through a bloody window. But you know what it hit me, I was starting the circle again, my mentality was switching like it had so many times before, hell even long before I even arrived in UWA it seemed to be going rinse, repeat, rinse repeat a destructively vicious circle.
Freeman draws circles in the air with his finger, accompanied by the fizzing swirling noise a Catherine wheel makes as it goes off.
I stand before you all now with a message, in life only you have the power to change your fortunes, only you can overcome your own misfortunes. See I am vowing to you all that as of this moment now, I will NEVER question how I handle a situation again. Hell I may do many things that you, the people of UWA find deplorable and heinous, but please understand I do it for your own good. Please understand I am the lesser of two evils! See if there wasn’t a men like me in every walk of life, be it in education, politics, theatre, fitness the whole world would be ruled by men like Cole Hunter! It is only people like me who are willing to take a stand, willing to put it all on the line and play every bit as dirty as there willing to sink to, that can ultimately save us all from utter chaos. Make no mistake about it Cole you are going to find out that no matter how hard you try to break me, no matter what you throw at me I will bounce right back and stab you with the very poisoned knife you tried to dig into my heart!
Bits of spittle run down his cheek from the pure ferocity of his words, he is literally like a rabid dog at this point utterly seething, he shoots a cold look at the camera and stares hard as he begins to speak once more.
It all begins to unravel on Monday night Cole, everything will change when I get my hands on your precious Artemis. For weeks now you have dodged me. You have ran like a scolded dog, leaving your perverted henchman to take the fall, only this week your right hand woman cant dodge me Cole, this week I will send you a message you can not ignore. I will take your little bitch and I will snap her in two and as she lays there broken and immobile I will take these very ties.
Freeman holds up some zip ties with an evil almost sadistic look in his eyes.
And this here sack
Freeman holds up a potato sack with his other hand.
And your little Artie will becoming for a little trip to an unknown location with me! You have left me no choice Cole, you wish to keep playing these games and now your little sex puppet is going to pay the ULTIMATE price for your actions!
Freeman raises the zip ties and sack once again and just furiously and sadistically stares down the lens of the camera. Just standing there glaring a hint of crazy in his eyes, it is obvious he is deadly serious. He drops the items to the floor and takes a deep breath before shacking his head as if he just regained his sanity.
Now of course there is a way you can stop all of this. There has always been a way you can put an end to it all, all you have to do is to return Jade to me, that it, it really is that simple, but this is the last time I extend you this offer Cole, this is the last time you have a get out of jail free card! If Jade is not released before I face your beloved slut toy, BAD things will happen to her! Not only that but even when you do eventually return Jade to where she belongs, this WILL NOT be over, I will hunt you down till I breathe my last dieing breathe and that son is a fucking PROMISE!
Freeman is shaking with rage, his face bright red, anger coursing through his veins, if he got any more intense he would literally burst into flames.
Monday night the whole landscape changes and Artemis. if I was you, I would get in your little boyfriends ear, I would beg him to return Jade to me because it is you that stands to lose the most if he does not! Have you ever felt true pain Artemis.? Have you ever experienced the excruciating agony of real torture? I have and I can tell you it is far from pretty, see there are 372 pressure points in the human body, 372 places where just the right amount of force and you will be screaming for mercy! Monday night on Mayhem were not facing off in a match, this will be an exercise in me brushing up on my knowledge of each and every one of these pressure points! I will lock you in excruciating hold after excruciating hold, till you reach the point where your screaming for mercy, but I wont stop, I wont heed your crys, no I will go on and on and on, till you start to shake and your body enters a state of shock till eventually you pass out!
Freeman just stares down the lens incensed, not uttering a word, just a cold hard grin for a good 30 seconds, clearly driving the point home that he is no mood for any more games, now its time for cold hard business!
The jury’s out, the verdict is pending what will it be Cole, will you be found in contempt of the court of Justice? Will the court have to sentence your little bitch to a trip to the torture chamber? The ball is now in your court, but make no mistake about it, I am unrelenting and I am a man of my word, you make the wrong choice and the blood of your dearest slut bag whore will be on YOUR hands Cole, YOUR HANDS!!
Freeman blankly stares down the lens of the camera a crazy and sadistic glint in his eye, his top lip twitching with rage as his nose scrunches up, the feed slowly fades to black as the viewer is left with the image of quite possibly the angriest, most riled up Englishman on the planet at this very moment.
Ember: Hey Ricky not seen you for a few days, one of my dads other goons has been on guard duty, oh man the other night was epic, well at least I think it was, I don’t really remember much but a hangover that bad it must have been some night, plus there was that cute as hell barman I woke up next to BONUS!
