Drink and be AWAKENED!
The scene opens to the humming of David Manson. He hums gently, letting the vibration be heard smoothly. We can see he is wearing no shirt again and a pair of black gym shorts. He is barefoot, feeling the Earth through his feet. We can see his feet are tattooed, roots that represent his connection with the Earth. Manson is standing at a podium, his followers sitting in front of him. Most are down on their knees, some sit on their rear ends, but none are standing. They are inside of an old, broken down building. The walls are worn out and the wallpaper is slowly ripping away. Trash and debris litter the ground around them, but they are used to this life. Manson looks over the podium, smiling at his followers who all wear the X on their foreheads from last week.
David Manson:”Gather ’round children. Listen to the words I have to say. Hear the sound of my voice and remember what I speak. The Awakening has brought another lost soul into our cause. Our new found brother Terry McGuire showed his allegiance at AfterBURN! He showed us and he showed the entire world that he is awake! Welcome Terry McGuire to the Awakening!”
Manson smiles as he dips his fingers in a goblet sitting on the podium. A thick red liquid comes out from the cup and Manson smears it on his face, drawing lines down his cheeks. He then takes another dip and smears it on his chest. The followers look on and smile, some laugh, as David begins to speak again.
David Manson:”And this week we get a treat children! Terry and I have been given a shot to win the Tag Team Championships! Together we will take on Marcus X and The Black Widow. And together, we will show OSW why the Awakening is here, the Awakening is now, and the Awakening is FOREVER! It’s simple children, the Awakening was already a strong force, a force like none other in OSW. But now that we have welcomed Terry into our family, we are an unstoppable force! What started off as a team has grown to the greatest group of talent to step foot into OSW! And together, the Awakening is taking everything away from OSW.”
David steps in front of the podium. He begins to pace back and forth as the smile on his face grows bigger and bigger. His followers look on and watch as their leader speaks the truth, red liquid running down his face.
David Manson:”Marcus and Widow will feel what it’s like to run into an unstoppable force! They will step forward and try to claim the Tag Team Championships, but they will try and they will FAIL! You can not stop an UNSTOPPABLE force, children! No matter what you put in front of the Awakening, we will see past it and go right through it. There is no stopping us, and everyone in OSW is starting to realize what the Awakening is truly about. We are not about wins, we are about statements! And every single week we make a statement! Whether it be Jackie, Brandon, me or our new brother Terry, the Awakening ALWAYS makes a statement when we show our faces!”
Manson walks behind his podium and grabs the goblet. The followers are confused as to what is happening. Manson holds it up and smiles sadistically.
David Manson:”In order to see through my eyes children, you have to be a part of me! In order to realize my true power, you have to let me inside of you! Drink my blood and be reborn as a stronger being! Drink and be AWAKENED!”
The members of Manson’s Family begin to come forward. They each take a sip from the goblet with David smiling menacingly and kissing each one on the forehead. Soon, they have all drank from the cup of Manson’s blood and he places the goblet back down. He smiles and stares at his children, all of them staring back at him with a new found rebirth in their eyes!
David Manson:”Rise out of the ashes of your former selves and open your eyes! You have been reborn in my blood and you are now all AWAKENED! See the truth and feel the power of the Awakening!”
Manson’s followers all begin to celebrate. He laughs as they let out moans of enjoyment and rebirth. Manson begins to speak again, his followers immedietly calming down to listen to their savior and leader.
David Manson:”This is the power of the Awakening! You can feel it children, and this is what we want the whole world to feel! We want them to follow in the Awakening and open their eyes to the truth! Marcus, Widow, take a look at who we are. Open your eyes and realize what is coming after you at AfterBURN. Don’t fear the Awakening, we don’t want you to be afraid! We want you to worship! Take a sip of the blood of the Awakening and be reborn like everyone here tonight! Follow the Awakening, worship the Awakening, accept your fate and realize that you can not walk away the winners! I can see the future children……”
David dumps the rest of the goblet over his head. The blood drips through his hair and down his face. His followers giggle and laugh quietly as he sits down, cross legged on the small stage. He extends his arms out to the sides as he looks up and smiles sadistically!
David Manson:”And the future is the Awakening!”
With that Manson lets out a menacing laugh as his followers all step forward and take his hands. They all laugh together for a moment before they join together for a song.
The Manson Family:”Always is always forever, as long as one is one, inside yourself for your father, all is none all is none all is one!”
David Manson:”Gather ’round children. Listen to the words I have to say. Hear the sound of my voice and remember what I speak. The Awakening has brought another lost soul into our cause.
