Chapter One - The Lions Den
(The scene opens with Lukas Emery walking down the streets of a Toronto, heading back to his hotel, where his wife is waiting for him. He turns a corner, and is met with an old familiar face.)
Lukas Emery: Hello Oscar…
Oscar: Hello Lukas.
Lukas Emery: What do you want? Surprised you finally decided to show your face, after what I did to your organization.
Oscar: You mean the massacre you committed against your own father and his men?
Lukas Emery: I mean what I did to protect my family. He was going after Amelia and Josie, you know that. He was the devil, and this world is far better off now that he’s gone.
Oscar: The devil that YOU worked for those years ago.
Lukas Emery: The sins of a lost son looking for his father’s approval before realizing the evil that came with it.
Oscar: And now look at you, ending up just like him.
Lukas Rmery: I am nothing like my father, everything I do is to protect and stand up for my family, not destroy them like he did.
Oscar: You really think this little stunt you’ve got going on in that wrestling company is about your family? Or is that what you’re telling yourself to justify the madness? Why don’t you just admit that you’ve become a monster, just like him?
Lukas Emery: I’m not saying I’m not a monster, but I’m nothing like he was.
Oscar: We’ll see about that. Every mosntser has their motivation, their breaking point. I wonder what yours will be?
(Lukas gets tight in Oscar’s face.)
Lukas Emery: You and I both know you don’t want to find out.
Oscar: Oh, but I think I do.
Lukas Emery; That’s a road that leads you down a path to join my father down in hell. Do you really want that?
Oscar: I guess we will find out. Have a good night, and say hello to Josie for me, would you?
Lukas Emery: Burn in hell.
(Oscar smiles.)
Oscar: You first.
(Lukas pushes past Oscar and continues to the hotel.)

Chapter Two - Lay You Down
(The scene opens in pitch black. We hear a slight breathing, before we hear Lukas Emery’s break through the silence.)
Lukas Emery: What do you see when you’re in the dark, and the demons come for you?
(Will h that, Lukas turns on a ligh dangling overhead, as it dimly lights the space around him. He sits back down and folds his hands as he talks.)
Lukas Emery: Demons run...but there are no good men in this affair. Michael, how long did you run from your family? How long did you abandon them while you were galavaning and buggaring about in Japan? When Levi was going through his troubles, and I he whole family rallied and stood together to save him...where were you? You wonder why I talk about family, then single you out? It’s because I see that deep down, family doesn’t mean a damn to you. When things get hard, when the true trials come calling, the only one you care about or look after is yourself. Your true colors are going to show Michael. Just give it time. You can lie to your sisters, you can lie to the rest of your family, but I see right through your lies. I know what it looks like when someone looks out for only themselves and abandons those who love them. I lived with it for sixteen years. I am the spawn of Satan himself and an angel. I watched as a kid and the devil tore the angel down. It made me a cold person. But I own my demons, I don’t hide them away. I have walked through hell on this earth. And here you stand, trying to pretend to be part of some royal bloody family, when you’re nothing more than the black sheep, the red-headed stepchild.
(Lukas lets out a sigh as he continues.)
Lukas Emery: As I said, I am the spawn of Satan, my greatest teacher in this business was a soulless monster. Do you honestly think you have any sort of chance against me? The things I’ve been taught to do in order to succeed? You think your precious family name can hold a candle to that? I harbor demons darker than anything you could ever imagine, and come Tuesday I’m going to be releasing all of them on you. I could say it’s nothing personal, but I’m not a liar like you. This has everything to do with your fallacy. I am out to expos you for the frauds you are.
(Lukas cracks his neck.)
Lukas Emery: My name may not be that hallowed in PWS, so the close minded might not be aware of what I’m capable of. I’ve made my name elsewhere, in bigger places, and now I’m coming to PWS to bring the reckoning. No one is safe, Michael. You just have the unfortunate task of being the first victim.after I’m done with you, I’m putting everyone else on notice. I don’t care if you’re a champion, a no name punk, or a washed up has been wanting that faded glory, it’s all going to fall. And it all starts...with you Michael. I watched as the devil laid an angel down to rest, and then I laid the devil down myself, and now I’m going to lay you down. Out of the lion’s den, and coming to bring you hell. You’re only the next step to me…
(Lukas leans forward, a sinister grin on his face.)
Lukas Emery: ...but I’m going to enjoy every second of it.
(Lukas reaches up and grabs the chain to turn off the light.)
Lukas Emery: See you Tuesday.
(He pulls the chain to turn the light off, as the scene cuts back to black.)
