"This pains me, Edgar."
We see Darius sitting in his living quarters, in his big leather chair, the moonlight highlighting the black trim on the blood red cushions. The television is on in front of him, playing what appears to be Edgar's match against Sway.
"It pains me because you are truly, one of the only people here who can stand toe to toe with me."
A smile crawls across Darius' face as Edgar hits Sway with a forearm. As the curtains are hit with a breeze, and wave gracefully into the room, Darius extends an open hand to the screen, sighing at the sight of the action.
"You are a brilliant mix of strength, speed, tenacity. The drive you have to do what you do. It's almost unmatched."
Darius leans back and sighs. He puts a hand to his temple and shakes his head. With a swift motion, he scoops up the cup of iced tea on the table beside him. He hesitates and takes a sip, before continuing.
"Yet here we are. Fighting each other instead of dominating as I know we could. We could do anything, provided we were --"
Darius pauses and takes a second to think.
"On the same team. I was going to say 'provided we were fond of each other', but the truth is I am fond of you. I think you are an intelligent, and driven. I respect the hell out of you."
He sets down the iced tea as the match comes to a close on the screen. His eyes lock with the camera, and he leans forward and scowls.
"So I'm going to give you a proposal."
Darius stands and walks over to a door. He pushes it open and points inside. One by one the spotlights in the room spring to life, and various trophies of Darius' can be seen. Testament's chain, Fenix's mask, Jack Rodger's guitar.
"We are going to have one hell of a match. And regardless of the outcome, I promise you, there will be no hard feelings. I want you to meet me here, before Vindication the following week. If you want this company to see your true potential, we can do that for you. Consider this an invitation to join The Conspiracy. Darius Seeiso, Sway Archer, Kidd West, wherever that lunatic is. Plus you. Edgar Whateley. We would be unstoppable."
Darius slams the door shut, and leans over the back of his chair, staring directly into the camera.
"I pray you make the smart choice."
