Alex Cross walked into the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport dressed in blue jeans and a black sleeveless shirt with a black with white Under Armour barrel bag thrown over his right shoulder. Several people stopped to take pictures of the former dual champion as he passed but none dared approach him or even speak to him. The look on his face said he would kill the first person that spoke to him or even got in his way and no one wanted to push it or even see what would happen if provoked. Before he was able to get too far into the airport and up to security a voice from behind him and a hand on his right arm stopped him in his tracks. He slowly spun around as he set the bag down beside him.
Oh this better be good because now is not the best time James.
Alex anytime that I approach you or anyone in this company it's a good thing. For you see Alex, whenever I'm around good things happen or are offered. In this case, I come with an offer.
Stood behind the young Alex wearing a smile and a black suit was the manager of the GZW2k1 Women's Champion Amanda Reynolds. Towering over both men stood a young black man dressed in blue jeans and a white shirt with the words "Free Payne" across the front of it. James turned to look at the larger man and nudged him.
I saw what happened to you at Crimson and I thought maybe you could use some help.
I've got a bodyguard but thanks for the offer.
Ah yes the bodyguard that was hired by someone you have yet to figure out. Where was this bodyguard while you were being assaulted with itching powder and other childish instruments?
He was elsewhere.
Exactly my young friend, he was elsewhere when needed the most. Where do you think Payne would have been?
Alex looked up at the big man and smirked.
Really? You're names Payne?
He doesn't talk much Mr. Cross. But trust me when I say he lives up to his name.
Look. I didn't want to join your little "alliance" when you approached me earlier this month and I don't want your hired goons watching over me either. Got that?
We're all friends here Mr. Cross. No need for such hostility I promise you.
Let me ask you something James. What does Amanda think of this little "alliance" you're trying to create? Is she down to break a few rules because she doesn't rub me as the type would likes to take shortcuts.
Let me worry about my clients Mr. Cross. I simply wanted to offer you some help because it was obvious you of all people needed it.
Alex looked away from the two men and shook his head.
What experience does he have anyways?
James couldn't help but smile.
He's one of the top five most sought after free agents in professional wrestling for starters. He's held multiple titles in Japan, Canada and Mexico and currently holds the record for most titles held by a single wrestler at one time up in Canada. So yes Mr. Cross, he has experience.
And how exactly did you come about acquiring his services?
As with most things Mr. Cross I get what I want when I want. I want to represent the best in this business then that's exactly what I will do. It's why I represent Ms. Reynolds, it's why I represent Mr. Payne here and it's why I want to not only represent you Mr. Cross but help you as well. Is that clear enough for you?
Crystal.
He grabs the barrel bag and slings it back over his right shoulder.
I'll see you in London James. Maybe you and I can sit down and have a talk. Just make sure Amanda is there because her I trust. You? I'm not sure about just yet.
Without another word Alex turned and headed deeper into the airport leaving the two men behind.
You'll learn to trust me Mr. Cross or you'll fall like the rest of them. You only have two choices, with me or against me. I suggest you choose wisely. Come on Mr. Payne we have a flight to catch.
The duo head in the direction of Alex as the scene fades.
