Right after the Tuesday Night Shockwave introduction has ended, NVX is shown throwing some punches at a huge punching bag hung in his locker room. Sweat is quickly rushing down his forehead. He looks like he is ready to collapse any moment now. While he is working out, preparing to end his losing streak in his barbed wire rope match against the Exterminator very soon, the television is on. His friend, wearing an NVX T-shirt and a pair of brown shorts is sitting on the couch, flipping through channels, looking pretty damn bored.
NVX: Hey, Mike. Aren't we on T.V. right now? I mean, there's a cameraman in here.
NVX's friend, Mike, just shrugs, still bored as ever.
Mike: I don't know. You're the famous wrestler. Shouldn't you know?
NVX: Yeah, but you're the one with the remote control, dumb ass.
Mike chuckles a little bit, before pointing the control at the television set and changing the channel to TNS. The screen shows Mike changing the channel on the T.V.
Mike: That's awesome, dude.
NVX lets out a loud grunt as he launches his fist at the punching bag again. The punching bag sways back.
NVX: I know, right. Just don't make yourself look like an idiot like you always do.
Mike: You're the one whose making me look like an idiot.
NVX ignores his friend and continues throwing blows at the punching bag. For a while, no one says anything. NVX just keeps preparing for his fight. Mike is still flipping through channels. Eventually, he turns it off.
Mike: So what happened last week?
NVX: I don't know. Evan just got the better of me.
Mike: I'm not talking about your match with Evan. I'm talking about when you decimated that cameraman and that EMT last week.
NVX: Yeah, now do you see why I always tell you to watch what you say?
Mike: This isn't a joke! You could have seriously injured them!
NVX: Dude, it's no big deal.
NVX continues to attack the punching bag, not taking his eyes off of it.
Mike: And you said something about your past. Something about...demons.
NVX doesn't stop throwing punches and completely ignores Mike.
Mike: Is this about when you got arrested?
NVX finally stops what he is doing and looks at Mike in the eyes. He lets out a loud sigh.
NVX: Yeah. I didn't mean to kill them. I was just defending myself.
Mike: But you were after revenge, weren't you? They did shoot your sensei. All you did was lay some of your martial arts on them. It wasn't your fault. They provoked you. Besides, if you hadn't killed them, they would have killed more people. Technically, you're a hero.
NVX: I'm no hero. I'm a murderer.
Both men just stay quiet, not knowing what else to say. After the awkward silence, Mike finally speaks up.
Mike: That was years ago. No one even remembers. The fans watching us don't even know what we're talking about!
NVX: And that's the way it should stay!
Mike: Come on, man. Nobody's perfect.
NVX: But I am.
Mike: What are you talking about?
NVX: I'm... A perfect monster...
Mike looks down. He doesn't know what to say anymore.
NVX: I need to be alone.
NVX makes his way to the door, not sure where he should go anymore. He just doesn't feel comfortable talking anymore. Suddenly, NVX's eyes widen and he grabs his head. He then starts screaming out loud at the top of his lungs. NVX shuts his eyes as more sweat rushes down his cheek. He drops to his knees, but doesn't stop screaming. Mike hurries over to NVX. NVX bends his back down, facing the ground. Mike sits next to him and places his hand on NVX's back.
Mike: Hey! What's wrong, Nat? Nat!
NVX suddenly shoots his right arm out and wraps his fingers around Mike's neck. NVX stops his screaming. His face no longer shows pain, but instead shows disturbance. It shows evil at it's fullest. Mike gasps for air, as he immediately grabs NVX's hand that is wrapped around his neck. Mike thrusts his fingernails at NVX's skin, trying to claw his skin out. This only makes NVX squeeze Mike's neck even harder. NVX tightens his grip as Mike's face becomes red. Mike looks into NVX's eyes, and realizes that this is not the man he has known for years. NVX was right. He is a monster.
NVX: I'm not doing this.
NVX snaps his knees straight up and is now on his feet, bringing Mike with him. NVX holds Mike in the air with one hand. Mike kicks his feet around, as a final attempt to get away.
NVX: I'm sorry.
NVX forces his arm down, causing Mike's back to slam into the ground. Mike's arms and legs are spread out. His eyes are closed and his body is motionless. NVX's eyes are also closed. He can't stand to look at his best friend after knocking him out with a choke slam. NVX stands up, looking calm with no signs of worry on his face.
NVX: Get out of my head!
Suddenly, NVX drops back down on his knees, with the same facial he had before, just before attacking his friend. He grabs his head and pulls on his hair. Suddenly NVX hears a voice talking to him. The voice starts laughing uncontrollably.
: I know you don't really mean that. You need me.
NVX: I...I can hear you clearer.
: Of course. I want witnesses. The people watching at home must know of the power. I am your demon. You cannot get rid of me, but I can get rid of you!
NVX: Why did you make attack Mike?!
: Because...It was fun.
The voice laughs hysterically as NVX just kneels there, looking helpless.
: Because of me, you won your title. Without me, you are nothing!
NVX: Get lost!
NVX stands up as fast as he can. The voice continues to laugh psychotically. NVX grabs the bottom of his couch and pushes it up, causing it to fall on it's side. NVX sees his lamp and grabs it. the electricity cord is pulled out. He then throws it across the room. The lamp crashes into the wall and falls apart. NVX then walks toward his punching bag. He pulls his arm back and launches at the punching bag. His fist goes through it. Sand pours out all over the floor. NVX then pulls his hand out of the punching bag. The voice gets louder and is still laughing. NVX screams in agony, begging for the voice to go away. Slowly, the voice disappears and the screen fades to black.
