A hissing sound fills the black screen and then it's followed by some static.
Static.
Static.
Finally a voice breaks through the static while retaining a slight hissing.
"This is Control 1, what is your status?"
Static.
"Boss is preparing final suit checks now, hang tight over."
Static.
"Roger that."
Static.
Static.
Static.
"Control 1 this is Front Line 1, Boss is ready for the jump over."
Static.
"Roger that Front Line, begin sequence now."
The static is over shadowed by a bunch of numerous being entered into a system.
"Sequence entered in, destination set. We are a go for launch."
Static.
"Roger that Control. Initiating jump launch sequence in five... four... three..."
Let me stop you right there.
I know, you were enjoying what was going on, curious as to what was going down, perhaps even wondering what this whole 'jump' talk was about. Well, luckily for you, that's why I'm here, to smooth over the transaction and warm you up for when the Boss finishes the jump and makes his own speech.
Of course you do know we're talking about Seifer, right? Good. So let's get right down to it. The wrestling business in the 60's, 70's, 80's, was pretty one minded and simple, it had its wrestling station, shows, and companies but it wasn't nearly as shall we say, diverse. However that all changed sometime during the 90's when new 'wrestling circuits' began to spring up all over the place. You had your basic ones like 'Chat' and 'Email' but those too evolved and the birth of various different ones took place, the most notable ones according to our calculations were 'Forum', 'HTML', and of course 'MSN'.
Still with me? Forgive the slight break of kayfabe but that's the way it's got to be to explain the story.
On these different circuits there were of course many federations. Most of which did their own thing and operated like the wrestling federations of earlier decades did, sometimes interacting with one another but for the most part all working separately on their specific circuit. Of course, due to how it was connected you would find superstars bouncing from federation to federation, often times occupying multiple ones at the same time. The wrestling community was at a feverish pace it hadn't seen in years, especially once the millennium hit. Sure, you'll have the old schoolers who talk about the 'great old days' but when analyzed closer like a young in his career Seifer did, you'll discover that the 'great old days' were simply just them having fun, but the talent wasn't so hot, it wasn't until later years when we saw a pickup of said talent. Proof is in the pudding when some of these older generation stars were put to the test by some new talent and the elite were forced to step their game up to levels they've never used before.
All is good then, for the talent was evolving and getting better as time progressed.
However this story isn't to give you a history of the different circuits since only three were mentioned. It's to give you a basic run down of the man known as Seifer and his travels amongst them. A man who began his career back in late spring of 2003 on the Forum Circuit. This rookie took the wrestling world by storm by quickly ascending to heights never seen before by a rookie, capturing many rookie of the year awards in the various federations he competed in. His first federation happened to be one in which had a whole slew of history, three plus years and had just returned from hiatus. Seifer was exposed to some of the best talent the Forum Circuit had to offer and he excelled extremely well, capturing a Heavyweight Championship in just around a month. Seifer showed immediately that he was a force to be reckoned with. His career would continue to prosper throughout the Forum Circuit until his interest dived into that of the HTML world for they provided what looked to be a darker, more innovative outlook than the more plain scale of Forum.
So Seifer made the First Jump.
Into the HTML world he went where he quickly ascended to the top of several high level federations, one even open for five plus years. Seifer showed by now that although he was new to the HTML Circuit, he was already at the level of some of their top dogs. Seifer's name continued to grow and escalate until he became known as one of the best, much like he had done in his previous Circuit. Yet all throughout this, Seifer felt an intriguing pull. He had heard it from his days on Forum and those echoes only got louder on HTML. 'MSN is a bunch of jobbers with colors', 'MSN is nothing but talentless hacks', these were some of the things that people, a lot of people, believed on these two circuits. Don't believe me? Seifer was there, he knows. Yet, he also knows that half of the people had never taken the time to look deeply into MSN federations, perhaps they just didn't like it or it got the bad rep so Seifer decided it was time to try a new avenue for himself, see what was really up.
Thus, Seifer made the Second Jump.
Into the MSN Circuit where he quickly began to realize that what they were saying... well it was kind of true. Seifer jumped in and immediately dominated the places he was. He didn't stick to one or even two, he spread his reach out and fought in many places, under different personnas to get a feel for everything and in turn, he won, a lot. He stated he wasn't going to just up and leave without making sure to give them a fair chance as he had the previous two Circuits and in a short period of time, he found the talent. He found the federations that housed some great talent. Hell, it was even during this time that he found the three men that would later become three of his closest brothers in the nWs.
As time went on, Seifer's name grew as he continued on his winning ways like he had done previously, and his name begin to grow. It took a while but slowly and surely, he had leered away from the dime-a-dozen federations and entered into the real deals, the one that had years of history under his belt for he knew that his legacy would be preserved there far longer. He knew that much like the previous two circuits, there lied many great talent, you just had to find them. Seifer took the MSN world by storm by winning and setting all kinds of insane records, most of which will probably never be broken. He was under the impression that he would even end his career here, well at least for now, Seif knew he'd probably come back in twenty-thirty years to kick the ass of kids with whom he kicked their parents ass. Call him a generational ass kicker! Ah, the perks of being immortal and of course one hell of a talented fighter to boot. However, that was not to be as MSN announced that it would no longer continue in the wrestling industry and was in fact closing its doors. So Seifer was left with a dilemma, end his career now before he had finished a few more things he wanted to accomplish, or brace himself for another journey.
"Two... one... the Jump is under way!"
Static.
For the first time, a picture comes into view from the darkness, it's got a couple speckles of stars spread around as we see someone in an astronaut suit pushing off from one space platform and soaring through the weightlessness of space as he begins to pick up speed.
"I see it... let's do this. Thrusters on."
The voice belongs to Seifer, what he sees is a slight purple tint of what looks to be clear clouds up in the distance in front of him. His thrusters spark to life and bring him to much faster speeds as he enters into this cloud and immediately everything goes at warp speeds as the sides, top and bottom of the screen all turn into a blurr as Seifer is sent through at a neck breaking speed.
Static.
Then, everything goes black. No static, no picture, no nothing.
...
"Ugh."
We're treated to a much brighter picture now, as we see Seifer lying on a beach. He stands up and brushes himself off, finding that he's only wearing some board shorts and a white linen short sleeve - no suit anymore.
"It didn't hurt that much last time."
Seifer looks around, taking his surroundings. There's an ocean of course in front of him, behind him is a field of grassy sand dunes that he begins to make his way towards.
"So this is Aimoo huh? Feels... different."
Seifer walks through the field seeing a wooden ramp and beyond that, a gravel parking lot with a single car parked there.
"Yet at the same time, it feels familiar. As if, it's a combination of Circuits."
Seifer walks up the ramp and sees his convertible H2 parked near the end of the ramp.
"I guess that's a good thing. What better way then for a fourth circuit to combine some different elements that I enjoyed from all three."
Seifer gets to his Hummer and opens the back door, inside is a box. He opens it and pulls out a championship belt. Seifer turns around with the belt in his hands. It was the new Domain Heavyweight Championship.
"Yet this is still BUD, still The Domain. I suppose starting off my journey on the Aimoo Circuit as the first ever Domain Heavyweight Champion ain't so bad, huh? Could be worse, haha."
Seifer looks at the title, shifting it from hand to hand as he enjoys the weight of it, the feel of the leather and of course the luster of gold. He slings it over his shoulder as he rubs at his head.
"So tell me, did you all enjoy my visual presentation of my Third Jump? It was pretty fun to do, I'll tell you what. Yet while this may be a third jump for me, as I just said, it's still The Domain. Which means that while I'm looking forward to the thought of starting anew here, I still have people talking about what went down last week."
He pauses and merely smiles.
"All this talk that Seifer can be defeated nonsense, of course I can, c'mon, not like we haven't seen it before. Yet the way I see it, what really could I have gained by picking up a victory over a wild card like Menacide? His career is benefiting far more from the win than mine would have. Besides, while we had a good match, it's not as if he was able to pin or submit me, all he did was out smart me. Which in my book kind of goes a longer way, because I must say Menacide, what you did was well very... Seiferesque?"
Que?
"For those not familiar it was a couple years back when I brought the very aspect of Mission Impossible style masks into wrestling. Sure, you've seen people wearing masks, people unmasking said masks to reveal someone, but it was I who went a step further with the Mission Impossible style mask. Since Tom Cruise and I are good friends, he gave me the okay on it and thus, there you have it. So Menacide took a page from my book to outsmart me, bravo, or did he? Did he outsmart me, or did I know what was coming? You must wonder why I was laughing after my initial reaction to being counted out, huh?"
Seifer can't help but grin.
"I bet it's killing some people out there wondering just what my game is, what my stake is in this whole Menacide mystery. Cahoots or me merely recognizing that he did indeed out smart me? Hmm. This isn't my show however, so I'm not going to take any more attention away from him, you do your thing and I'll do mine and we'll see where that gets all of us."
Seifer winks and begins his classic pacing around in front of the H2.
"So that brings me to this week in which I face the lovely and talented, Kit Black. A woman with whom I know very little, but enough to get by, I suppose. A woman who, unlike Menacide, doesn't necessarily need a victory to get over since she's already over, being Franchise Champion and all. I'm not saying 'Cide couldn't have done so without winning, but at the moment no one knows who he is (despite what some might say since he hasn't revealed) so he's the man with no knowledgeable past, not like Kit who we know has been climbing the ranks as of late. With a victory over a veteran like Gypsy and a near win against a veteran like Drew Stevenson, you know she's following in the long line of talented bytches to enter into a domain they like to call their own."
Seifer smiles, it was true, after all, take a gander at the name!
"Yet in this Domain, at least right now, I'm the King, I'm the Master. I'm not throwing that out to intimidate you either Kit, because those are just mere titles I've earned. If I was trying to do so I'd go and list my laundry list of accomplishments but rather than talk, I'd rather just show you what I'm all about. You appear to have a great respect for Drew and what he's accomplished here in BUD, holding him in such high regard. And yet, I find that interesting for a woman who actually knows a thing about respect because you go from a guy like Drew who while is a solid talent and even proved to be a solid champion, isn't even considered to being in BUD's Top Five. To a guy like me, who many consider to be atop that top five list of Domain elites. Yet that's what makes this match fun, because you look at it and it appears as if you've got more to gain and really nothing to lose. You don't need to win for people to turn heads and take notice, all you need is a good showing and I've seen you wrestle, I think you can provide that.
"Me on the other hand, while I know I don't need this win, it's something I'd like to get. You know, something about losing two straight, no matter the circumstances, won't sit well with me. Most importantly, this is my first match on Aimoo's circuit and I'm not about to start off with a loss. I won my first match on Forum, won the first one on HTML, and won the first one on MSN so it's only natural that I keep up to my standards and win here too. Plus I've got news for you Kit, I don't believe I've ever lost two matches back to back. What's that say? That's just me letting you know that when it comes to Seifer, there's no riding a wave when I'm caught off guard and allow others to sneak in for the victory. In fact some might say it's quite the opposite, someone does sneak in a victory and all of a sudden my defenses go up and become impregnable. And as they say in the world of sports, defense wins championships."
Seifer uses this time to look down at his own championship as he smiles and walks over to the back of the hummer, jumping up onto it and setting the title in his lap.
"However you should be honored that you're going to be getting a Seifer that actually wants to win this match. Cause all that'll do for you besides giving you a mountain to climb with no gear, is enable your career to flourish far more if you're able to hang with me. You're getting a great opportunity Kit and I know you aren't one to pass them by. You're Franchise Champion after all, so I know you know what holding respectable gold is about, that's a title I'm pretty fond of too since I won that bad boy in my very first BUD match."
He takes a moment to reflect back, only a short moment though.
"So here we are. Heavyweight Champion versus Franchise Champion, should be quite the match eh? Oh and since we don't really know one another, I'll do you a favor and put an end to any speculation you might have of me underestimating you. A lot of times those who I don't know seem to think I enter into matches over looking them because I'm 'Seifer' or something and that it should be my right to win against everybody. Nah, while I've shown streaks of unparalleled arrogance in the past, that's not the Seifer that's here in The Domain this time around. This Seifer simply wants to go out and put on a show that'll rock the world. We've got the first Main Event of The Domain's new home Kit, you and me, one on one. The spotlight's on us and my question to you is, are you ready to shine with me? I've been in this spot many, many times so you could say that it feels like a home coming of sorts since it IS my first one on one Main Event since making my return back at Devil's Night. I'm ready to go out there and put on an excellent match like the two of us did last week against our respective opponents."
Seifer jumps off the hummer and walks over to the door, putting the belt back inside.
"I look forward to hearing from you again Ms. Black, cause the Seifmadness has only just begun once again."
Seifer winks and gets in his H2 and drives out of the parking lot as the scene seizzles out.
The Third Jump has been completed.
If the Seifmadness isn't already coursing through your veins, it will soon enough.
Let the games begin. |
