It would appear that Sparrow is spending quite a lot of time on this show hosted by Beach Guy. Hmm...looks entertaining enough, so of course, when Misery was asked to make a special appearance, he couldn't deny. However, he did find it a bit fishy, knowing that it was a music Countdown show, and not a talk show about wrestling. Either way, he knew it'd be a great way to let the people know his own side of the story. Besides, even TRL has actors and reality stars and whatnot for guests, why not wrestlers?

"What's up bros? I'm here with one of the MOD final contestants, Misery...or Zarek Lyle...or whatever."

There's some applause as Misery, with facepaint, is shown sitting next to Beach Guy. Of course, most people just look on in confusion, seeing as how most people here are Sparrow fans, thus why Sparrow makes so many appearances. Not to mention this is supposed to be about music, yet, there's so many wrestlers on lately.

"So this has pretty much been called Sparrow's show, why would you invite me on here?"

"Well we've heard so much from S-Row, I mean Sparrow, so I figured we could get the otherside, and see what's like, on your mind and stuff."

It was a definitely odd situation for Misery to be in, that's for damn sure. However, Misery decided to allow Beach Guy to proceed, never refusing any sort of interview. Misery half smiled, trying to hide his uneasyness, and moved his hand back and fowarth, signaling for him to continue.

"Alright, so everyone knows you entered MOD last year, and weren't able to make it through. What are your thoughts about that, as well as how 2008 was dubbed Bobby Johnson's year, yet he wasn't able to make it past the first round?"

"Last year was hard because I was involved in that car accident, that could have seen me going up against Bobby Johnson, and not Dannica. There's no telling what would have happened, but for some reason, it just wasn't my time. I know everybody said that this year was supposed to be Bobby's year, because he was so close last year, but really, I don't understand it. Nobody said it was supposed to be DSL's year last year. Nobody said it was supposed to be Andrew Underwood's year the year before that, so why was this supposed to be Bobby's? Why not mine? Why not Sparrow's? I mean, we've made it thus far, and people are still saying it's supposed to be Bobby's. Sparrow got close one year, I could have taken it to the end if not for the accident. I don't think we've been given the recognition that we deserve. I mean, sure, Sparrow is not among the people on my allies list, he's my opponent tonight for God's sake, but I still think we deserve what is rightfully ours. What happened to Bobby was bad, sucks to be him, but the fact remains that he didn't make it through this year. Sparrow did, I did. Whoever walks out of this match will become the new MOD Champion, and that's something big."

"And for anyone who has watched BUD would know that you haven't been within the company for as long as Sparrow. Maybe a year and a half, yet you're the Heavyweight Champion, and now competing for the MOD Championship. A year and a half ago, when you were first bursting onto the scene of BUD, did you...like, uhh...ever umm..expect to make it like, this far?"

"Oh hell, I never thought I'd be in this position, never in a million years. I entered BUD after a six month haitus from the wrestling world, and I found instant success. It was my first mainstream company, and I was amazed that I got as far as I got in my first year. Hell, I'm still amazed at how far I've gotten, what I've done. I mean, flaming cage matches, the series I had with Drew Stevenson, this whole Misery thing, and now I'm holding the Heavyweight title. I heard people talking back then, speculating that I was a future Heavyweight champion, but you don't really believe that stuff, you know? It's just people talking, and I could easily fall to the bottom of the stack, which did happen a couple of times. I've been up and down the card more times than you can count. In and out of this company more times than I'd like to admit. Even when I won this title, I never thought I'd make it this far in MOD. Not with people like Bobby Johnson, DSL, Wallstreet, hell no I wasn't going to make it through the first couple of rounds, let alone make it all the way to the finals. I know it's cheesy, but I once was a starry-eyed new superstar, and I think I kind of still am. It still surprises me that I'm here. A year and a half later after my BUD debut, I'm holding this title, and I'm up against Sparrow in the MOD finals. That's some big time stuff right there, you know? I've fought and beat DSL, which was a big one for me, personally, considering her whole fued with Dante when I first entered the company. For Sparrow, he's been in other federations, held many titles, and he's definitely made a name for himself. I'm not going to lie. I knew who Sparrow was before I even stepped into the halls of BUD. Who hasn't? I know he didn't know who I was, and probably didn't know who I was until maybe last month when I beat Stevenson for the title. That's a big maybe too. Sparrow has credibility throughout the MSN Circuit. It's an honor to be facing him and all, but I have to win this thing. This is it for me, everything I've worked for, I have to walk out of MOD as champion. It's true Sparrow has put more time into this title, more time into this company, and more time into this sport, than I have. He's probably accomplished things that I wouldn't even dream of accomplishing, but I have to take this for myself. I know the odds of taking these things aren't that high, especially against Sparrow? But isn't that what I'm about? I've always been about overcoming the odds, especially earlier in my career when nobody knew who I was. Winning the BUDvision Championship, competing against some of the bigger names in the company, my fight to win the Heavyweight, and now MOD. Despite what some people have said, and what I'll probably say after this tournament, I've always been somewhat of an underdog. That little scrawny fast guy who fought until his heart burst is still inside me, and it's times like these that make him come out again. I know Sparrow is prepared, but I hope he's prepared for something he just hasn't seen before."

"I've heard many people say that you shouldn't be in the finals. Your bracket was supposily way easier than Sparrow's. How do you respond to these accusations?"

"There's no doubt that he's had the harder brackets. I mean, he was given Bobby Johnson right off the back, which he could have been eliminated right then and there. I remember thinking it was crazy that he got a match like that for his first round. Then he had to go up against Gypsy, who I know is a hothead in the ring. She's been my tag partner for quite some time now, and I prey that I'll never have to be on the opposite side of the ring, for my own health, of course. Then he got stuck against King Asshole himself, who is almost as big a legend as you could possibly get. Again, another match that he could have been eliminated in. I know Sparrow has a certain amount of wins over Syck, but when you have talent like that in one ring, anything is bound to happen. His only break came in the form of Lylah McQueen, who probably was so tired by then, that she couldn't put up much of a fight against Sparrow. My bracket ended up being much easier, and honestly, I'll say I was lucky. If I would have gone up against Bobby Johnson in the first round like Sparrow, I would have been gone. If I would have gone up against Syck in my third round like he did, then I would have been gone. This goes without saying that I still would have tried, fought my damn heart out, bled, broken bones, and clawed my way to the top. Even when I know I'm outnumbered, the odds are against me, all that jazz, I'll still use everything within me, and if that's not enough then atleast I have it one hundred percent. If I still lose then I know the better person really did win."

He shrugged and nodded, looking at the camera, before continuing.

"My bracket saw me go up against Jezzabel first, who wasn't much competition. Maybe she had something else going on in her own company, but in the first round, she didn't seem focused. Then she went on for a second chance and beat Image Johnson, so I guess I'm lucky she wasn't focused the first time around. Otherwise the match would have been a lot harder, and I might have gotten kicked on my ass. Then I had Mark Riggs, who barely put up a better fight than Jezzabel. I had a little bone to pick with him anyone, from the days when he ran with 'The Tide' and that Evan Pierce bitch. That was some satisfaction on my part, but not much of a challenge when it came down to it. My third match is when it started to get a bit harder. DSL, was someone I had wanted to see in the ring for awhile. Her and my mentor, Dante Cross, had a couple of crazy matches back then, so I figured she would be something of a challenge. Besides, she had beaten Wallstreet the week before, so that was a bit intimidating. I remember DSL telling me that Wallstreet told her how to beat him, for some odd reason, and I think that might be the only reason why she won. DSL isn't what she used to be, and Wallstreet could have taken me out of the tournament. Then came White Trash who I also had a bone to pick. That whole ordeal with myself in the tournament as Zarek, blah blah, so she thought she was hot shit. However I showed her she wasn't what she made herself out to be, and eliminated her from the tournament. In a Bobby Johnson versus Jezzabel match, Bobby would own. Gypsy versus Mark Riggs, Gypsy takes the cake. Syck versus DSL, debateable, but I think Syck would be able to take her out. Lylah versus White Trash, might be the only instance where my opponent was harder. No matter how I got here, how much easier my side was, I'm still here, and I'm still fighting for my right to be named MOD champion. I'm not going to discredit anything Sparrow has been through to get to this point, because honestly, I can't. I don't know what happened back in '04, but I know he's out to make that title his own, and I'm the only person standing in the way. All the same, he's standing in my way as well, and if he really wants to get past me, he's going to have to work for it."

"And this whole thing with Gypsy is going down. How is she going to help you defeat Sparrow?"

"This whole thing with Gypsy is going down? I didn't know anything was 'going down' with Gypsy, unless you're referring to our relationship. Gypsy can't really help me defeat Sparrow, because as he mentioned before she didn't beat him. All she can do is get me prepared. I really know nothing about him. Other than the fact that he thinks he's funny, and tries to mock his opponents. I'm not sure how that's intimidating, but whatever floats your boat. However, Gypsy knows him on a different level than most other people around here do. That's how she's helping me. She's giving my a glimpse of how he operates, stuff I wouldn't really know otherwise. I already know that he tries to be creative with his songs and whatnot, but that's his whole gimmick. I wasn't exactly sure how he operates in the ring. Along with others things...she's also been in the ring against him, whereas I haven't before. All she's doing is giving me little pointers on how things will go. You can never be quite sure though. Anything can happen, so I'm not going to completely base my offense off of whatever she says. As far as the heart felt crap goes, I can't really say much about that. Whatever happened between them happened, and obviously she didn't want anything to do with him, even before the match, as far as I know. She went on about some kind of betrayal. I'm not sure, that's between them two, and I have no intention on figuring it out. All I know is that I have a match with this guy at MOD, and I'm going to do anything within my power to come out on top, and that'll be that I suppose."

"Lastly, what do you expect to happen in this match?"

"I can't rightly say. I'd love to sit here and give off this false confidence like Sparrow does, tell you I'm going to win. However, the fact is I have no idea what's going to happen in this match. As said before, anything can happen, and I'm fully aware of that. I leave room for the unexpected, whereas it's obvious that Sparrow doesn't. That's fine, it's how he operates, whatever. I can't tell you that I know for a fact, that I'm going to win tonight. What I can tell you is that I'm going to walk out there tonight, and give Sparrow the hardest match he's ever had. It's not going to be just another day in the sun, and if he thinks it is, then he's going to have another thing coming."

"Alright, alright. That's very insightful. It was nice to get the otherside of everything Sparrow has been saying."

Beach Guy had a fake smile about him, kind of like he was saying he liked having him on, but he really didn't Obviously, Sparrow had a very big influence on this place. Meh, whatever. His world was that of music anyway.

"Thanks, anytime, anytime."

"Well I wish you luck tonight, though I'm personally rooting for S-Row."

He extended his hand, wow, that's uhh..awkward. Misery shook his hand anyway.

"That's alright man, most of the world is. I really don't care who people root for, that doesn't make the match."

"Nice, well it should be one for the ages."

Misery shook his head, and waved, walking off the set. Thank god, it was over.

"Until next time..."

His words were drowned out as Misery headed towards the exit. It was odd being in Sparrow's working space, to say the least. It appeared everyone there had wanted Sparrow to win. So much so that they all looked like they were going to jump him. Like if you were a Patriots fan, and you saw Eli Manning walking by you on the day of the Superbowl.

"Just because I don't know you, doesn't mean I'm confused about anything. Okay, I don't know you, the end, good job. Do I have to know you in order to put you down? I didn't know any opponent coming through this tournament, yet I believe I did a pretty good job of getting them down for the pin. The invisible rap song you did about me?"

He pulled out a tape recorder, and pushed play.

"Anyone from Bobby Johnson to Misery..."

Pause.

"Oh wait, I have another one."

Play again.

"Oh yea very easily because like Bobby Johnson, Misery can just beat it.."

Stop this time.

"Nice cover-up attempt, but I pretty much remember you stating that some specific songs refer to me, as well as a few other people. I don't recall mentioning you wrote it solely about me. Hmm...not so invisble after all, now is it Sparrow? No, I didn't think so. We can go back and fowarth on this book thing all we want, and talk about these songs that you like to sing, but in the end, it won't really help you. Mock me all you want, make fun of the opener, keep singing your heart out, but does it prove you have skill? No. Does it prove you can beat me? No."

Out.

Lady Andromeda and Misery were back in the locker room by now. There were only about two hours before MOD began, and to say Misery was anxious, would be an understatement. L.A. also wanted to make sure he was mentally prepared before the match. Whether he wanted to admit it or not, he probably wouldn't ever get another shot like this. A chance to defeat Sparrow, and walk away with the MOD championship. That was big. Only a few people have been able to win the MOD Championship in their life time, and she wanted to make sure Misery understood that. Their monitor was on, turned to The Countdown, as they watched Sparrow appear on the show yet again.

"Sparrow sure seems to be going onto that show a lot."

"Meh. I've been on it, it's nothing special, trust me. Some biased Beach Guy. Psh..."

He put on some wrestling tape as he looked up at the monitor, shaking his head. This Countdown show was lame anyway. What kind of music television constantly talks about wrestling news anyway? Even thought Sparrow was some music superstar, they barely asked questions about that.

"He's saying people don't ever know what to expect from him."

"Well I've already explained that anything can happen, and that I always leave room for the unexpected. I don't really need to know what to expect from him. Sure, Gypsy has given me pointers on what he might do, and I've asked around against some of his opponents. There's really no constant with this guy, so do I really need to figure it out, in order to beat him? Not really. All I'm going to do, is do what I do best, and that's kick some ass. You can't do wrong with that. He can try to act like he knows what I do, and he can tell everyone that I'm just like his other opponents. The truth is, he'll be surprised to know that I'm just not. Not in the least bit. Sparrow likes to generalize, and in all honesty, it'll hurt him in the end. I've worked my way up, just like him, and if he thinks I got here just by looks he's sadly mistaken. Though I'm sure they didn't hurt. Ha. Seriously though, Sparrow likes to be original and all, but how many songs can be made before it stops being original? How many times can you go on the same boring show, before you just don't want to watch anymore. I'll tell you. You do it once, then it's original. You do it a second time, it's good, but not as good as the original. You do it a third time and you're pushing it. By now, it's tired, the same thing he's been doing, and he tries to say he's still original. Sorry for the birdman, but that ship sailed long ago. He's been good at what he does, up until now."

"So what are you willing to do to become MOD champion?"

His mouth droped to the floor, not literally, of course, but he was pretty much left in awe. After everything he had been through in the past like two months, she was going to ask what he was willing to do. Psh.

"Haven't I already shown what I'm willing to do?"

She smiled, broadly, like she knew what she was doing, and urged him to continue.

"Humor me."

"I didn't see anybody else putting on facepaint, and getting two entries, just for security, in order to become MOD Champion. I've heard White Trash, DSL, Leaky Format, whoever the fuck else talk about how it was cheating, and how I should be out of the tournament. But in reality, who would have done the same, just to be on top? I'm an opportunist, and I saw an opportunity for security in this tournament. If I was really supposed to be eliminated already, then I would have done it. I've risked tarnishing my reputation forever in this tournament, and you're going to ask me what I am willing to do. I've already technically been eliminated once, yet I'm still here, in the finals of MOD. Sparrow's taken on all comers, good for him, but I think I have earned the right to say that I took it that much further, don't you think? Would White Trash do anything like that for the fans? Would Sparrow? Let me guess, they don't have to? Well if I have my way, then Sparrow is going to be wishing that he had. What makes me laugh is that Sparrow is still treating it like he's going up against Leaky Format, brushing me off like I'm just another jobber. Compared to his accomplishments, I probably am, and I can live with that. But can Sparrow live with the fact that he just might get beat by a 'jobber' tonight? I don't think so. Just another stepping stone, I don't think so. Guess again birdman. He might be considered royalty anywhere he goes, but to me, he's still just someone in my way."

"So are you saying that Sparrow doesn't deserve legend status?"

"I know how you like to twist my words around. I'm not saying that in the least bit."

"Then explain it to me."

"You're asking quite a lot of questions, what's the deal?"

"I'm just trying to get into your head is all. I've gotten you this far, haven't I? Trust me."

"I'm sure Sparrow is a great competitor and all that jazz, but I think he's had his time. He's had his time for years, even though he has yet to capture the MOD title. I think it's time someone with more heart step up and take that crown off his head. MOD means more to me than just another match. Sure, that's how I'm going about this, but honestly, how else do you go about preparing for Sparrow? I'm not going to give him any special treatment, but on that same note, the outcome of this match means more to me than he could ever imagine. Someone such as myself, lasted longer than DSL, Bobby Johnson, Syck, you've got to be fucking kidding me if he thinks it means nothing to me. Maybe it'll be better if he thinks he means nothing to me, it means he doesn't think I'll try as hard. Let me be the first to assure you, that I'll be going the hardest I've ever gone. BUD has become my home. I got a start in the independent feds, but the first mainstream company that realized my talent was The Domain. It's become my home, and I keep coming back to it. MOD being the most prestigious of all, hell yeah, it means the world to me. It's true, I've only been here for a year and a half, ages less than Sparrow's been roaming these halls, but that doesn't mean I want it any less than him."

People would always try to tell him that he didn't have enough experience, until the end of time. It was pretty annoying. He's been a 'young talent' for a year and a half, and wouldn't you get annoyed if you couldn't escape the title of rookie. Sparrow would always have more experience than him, but it wouldn't stop him from trying to knock Sparrow on his ass, and walk away with the MOD title.

"I don't need to figure out what he's doing, because it simply doesn't matter. We've never been in the ring together, so what else is there to do? I'm not going to study my brains out just so I can find out if there is one tiny little thing he might do the same. Sparrow is Sparrow, and he can be nothing more. I hope he knows that even if he tried, he wouldn't find anything I do the same either. Why would I leave a loose end? I know that he wouldn't either. So in the end, there really is no point in trying to find a slip up. It all comes down to that moment, inside the ring, and the choices we make while we're inside. The past doesn't matter, only the present, which will decide one of our future's as 2008 MOD Champion."

"I don't know, Sparrow seems to think that he has this thing in the bag, and I almost believe him."

He wasn't sure if she was trying to anger him for the match, or if she was just trying to get under his skin. Whichever one she was attempting to do, it was definitely working.

"And your point is?"

"My point is, his confidence almost makes you believe he's already champion."

"Yeah, but confidence doesn't make it so, infact, it's almost a weakness. If you're expecting to win, you won't expect the things that your opponent pulls out of his bag of tricks. Da Sweet Lunatic told me she was going to win, White Trash almost knew she was going to win because she had done it before. Why should Sparrow be any difference? I don't care that he thinks he's going to win, I don't care if anyone else thinks he's going to win. Where did DSL end up, competing for the Franchise title. Where did White Trash end up...I guess in some lesbian connection with her MOD opponent, so maybe it was good that I eliminated her. Hmm..."

"So what's in your bag of tricks?"

"What do you mean?"

"You said confidence makes it so the person doesn't expect the things that your opponent pulls out of his bag of tricks. What's in yours?"

The question caught him off guard. He wasn't expecting her to ask what he planned on having over Sparrow, though he had some answers, nonetheless.

"Talent."

He stuck up one finger.

"Something Sparrow obviously doesn't think I have. He's expecting to walk out there, and be put up against someone who doesn't know what he's doing. Would someone that he's described, have made it thus far in the tournament? I wouldn't think so. It doesn't matter who you ask, anyone that's been in the ring with me can vouche that I do have skill, Sparrow won't believe what he's in the ring with."

Lady Andromeda shook her head, thinking that to be a suitable answer, and would have just accepted that. However, it wasn't the only that Misery planned on bringing out in this match. Not at all.

"Luck."

Sticking up a second finger.

"Cheesy, I know. But if it weren't for some lucky moments, then I wouldn't be in the position I am currently in. It's the luck that didn't let Bobby Johnson come my way, the luck that allowed DSL to eliminate Wallstreet before our match. Obviously, somebody up there wants me to get through this thing, and become the new MOD champion."

It was an odd choice, but fitting nonetheless. She began to open her mouth, when she was cut off yet again.

"Determination."

Third finger.

"There's no stopping me when I get into that mindset, and he won't be able to put me down. I'll keep coming, harder and harder each time he tries to put me down. There's nobody determined more than myself to win their match at MOD, not even Sparrow himself. I'd like to see him try to prove me wrong. I was determined to get my hands on the Heavyweight, and I did it. I'm even more determined to get a hold of that MOD Championship, and Sparrow won't see it coming."

"I do believe you're ready..."

Fade.
