"MERCENNARIO" CHRIS DANIELSON:
Yes, this is me... Or at least that's how I once saw myself as. If there's one thing I love just as much as wrestling, it's singing. Being a singer can be one of the greatest experiences a human can live through. Not because of the money, not because of the fame; it gets even better: a singer is able to tell the whole world how he feels like about something without fear of being judged, because in the very end, the audience always thinks what you sing may just be a song, without noticing that instead of just lyrics, you may be revealing your life to them.
I remember since I was a child I would keep singing while dad was driving. I'll never forget while we were at Wal-Mart and my parents starts laughing at me as I was on the toy section signing an Enrique Iglesias song. I grew up and decided to learn how to sing. Fortunately, I was gifted enough to do so. My parents, my sister, hell my whole family, my friends and even my girlfriend loved when I used to sing.
I knew none wanted me to become a wrestler, but somehow they did supported me on what would be a music career. It was my then ex-girlfriend the one that inspired me on writing my first song. It wasn't the best, but I accomplished just what I wanted: share my feelings. I wonder just how different my life would be had I kept on signing... Where would I be now if I had never trained to be a wrestler. Had I heard my mother's wishes... Had I stayed with the girl I truly loved. Yeah, I have a girlfriend now. She's a woman that I was able to meet because of music. She's been nice to me. I know she loves me to death, but I... I can't say I love her as much as she loves me. I can't say I love her as much as she deserves. Despite her defects, she's been one of the greatest I've ever met, or at least that's how she's been to me, and that's what should matter in the end, shouldn't it? But then, there was that other girl I really, really loved. Every single morning I wake up thinking about her, just as every single night I pray for her welfare before closing my eyes and having the same last dream again. All I ever wished for was growing up and creating a family with her by my side. I was stupid enough not to follow that dream and going for what I thought was best for me and that was how I decided to ask my current girlfriend on a date. Tears roll down as razor blades whenever I think of how happy I could've been. My heart stops beating whenever I see my girlfriend smile and telling me she loves me, while I... I just smile and hug her because I can't look her eye-to-eye and reply 'I love you too'. I still would like to know if I made the correct decision. I had to choose between the girl I loved and the girl I needed. The thing is, the girl I loved and the girl I needed is just one person, while the one I chose was the girl that loved me.

:I was on stage and when I finished the concert, everyone seemed to love me. They were all throwing roses at my feet. I thanked everyone for coming and went backstage for a brief break and have some water. I sat down on the first chair I found as my sister and my mother came to me and told me they were proud of what I had become. They left after a few minutes because they realized that as much as I loved this, I was a bit tired. Then, my girlfriend was coming near me, but this time, there was no trace of her smile, the look she used to gave me was nowhere to be seen; I knew someone was wrong. She was finally at my right side. She kissed my cheek and whispered on my hear that I did great and she was the happiest woman on earth for having me by her side. I tried to fake a smile and asked her what was wrong. She quickly replied with an 'I saw her'. I was confused and asked her about that 'her'. She told me my ex-girlfriend attended this concert. I tried to hid my emotions as much as I could just as slowly touched my chin to make me look at her telling me again that she loved me and she was leaving. 'A nice dinner along with me will be waiting for you at home tonight, honey'. Those were her last words before walking away.[/right]
As soon as she left, Chris couldn't help but run to the stage as fast as he could. Some fans were still leaving. Chris looked at the floor and noticed there was someone running; it was a woman. Chris kept looking at her, and as soon as he stopped looking, she turned around, giving a look at him before going out.[/size]

We are on the inside of an apartment. The room's lights are turned off. Suddenly, we listen to a couple of keys being moved and the door being opened with a brief shine of light from the aisle coming inside the place. We see the shadow of Merc coming in.
"MERCENNARIO" CHRIS DANIELSON:
So then I came in and thought Alexa, my girlfriend, had fallen asleep. That didn't make me happy as I was hungry, but that certainly didn't made me sad either. After having that feeling that the woman I truly loved was just as near as she had been at me for quite some time, I couldn't help but think she was still in love with me two. I walked as slow as I could trying not to make any kind of noises and not wake Alexa up. I took a deep breath and walked to the couch. I grabbed the phone as I was thinking if I should call her. Unexpectedly, I noticed a couple of candles being turned on. I stared at them as the biggest of those candles was turned on and Alexa was there behind it blowing the match's fire. She was wearing a beautiful red dress and no shoes. At that moment, I didn't understood why she would wear a dress like that one and wouldn't have shoes on... But anyway, I took a sit in front of her and she asked me to move my chair to her side. I did it and I started eating. I've always loved the way she cooks, she's so good at it... Getting back to the topic, I was eating, and she, instead of doing the same, kept staring at me and smiled. I felt she was looking at me and looked at her. Her smile grew bigger as she said 'I pray every day to God to keep you here, with me. Chris, you don't have any idea of how much I love you'. That pretty much made me feel like a monster. Again, I wasn't sure if I was doing what was best. She grabbed my hand as we both stood up. We were going to our room. I took my jacket off and stayed on the edge of the bed while she was brushing her teeth. She came back to bed and on her knees she approached me from behind. She started giving me a massage on my shoulders while I was thinking about my soul mate. I turned to my right and looked at her. 'I'm a freaking bastard' were the only words I could think of. She kissed me and was trying to take my shirt off while her dress was falling. 'I'm sorry, but I don't really feel fine babe' those words you commonly hear from a woman were the only ones I could use in order to "save me". She seemed disturbed but comprehensive at the same time. We both turned the lights off and started sleeping, or at least she did. I looked at the clock: it was 4:35 AM. I stood up from bed and changed clothes. I took my jacket and stared at Alexa while she was sleeping. I grabbed my keys and left as quietly as I could.

Chris is seen outside of his Chevrolet Chevelle. He keeps staring at the street before proceeding to talk.
"MERCENNARIO" CHRIS DANIELSON:
Being a singer was always a dream of mine, but being a wrestler is my whole life. I wouldn't be able to count how many things would be different had I chose a different path for myself. How many people I've disappointed for taking this risk, because that's how they see it: a risk, but me? I've always seen this as the biggest opportunity life has given to me. Over the last couple of months, I've felt some minor pain on my back. My head hurts, but I remember being with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash in the ring sometime. I feel the need to face Scott Hall again. Not that Kevin is not a great opponent, but Scott is a future Hall of Famer. No matter what happens or what has happened already between us, the day he gets inducted on it, I will be there applauding him, but Scott, as much as I respect you for everything you've done in the ring and all the demons you've tried to face to this day, when my music hits, the only thing I'll care about is make the fans notice that I can be just as good as you once were and still are. I'll show my buddies in Evolution that they can be proud of me, that I'm worth of being by their side. I wanna show Tyger that I'm not fluke and that I'm indeed the future. I wanna show him that I'm a true friend and that someday, somehow, a flame will take over my soul leading to my glory days. I wanna show Orton that I can deal with the venom that my opponents throw at me and come out victorious. Scott, this will be a real challenge for both of us. My mind may be a mess currently with all the situations I'm going through, and I'm sure yours is just as bad or even worse than mine could ever be. I don't know about you, but I'm willing to forget about all that when we both step foot inside that ring. I've got too much to prove, and you? You've proved all you've got to prove, but Scott, let show everyone the talent we've got inside ourselves, not because we have to, but because we can.

Merc smiles for a few seconds before staring at a window of a tall building right in front of him as it is there where his true love lives.
"MERCENNARIO" CHRIS DANIELSON:
Someday, somehow, this will stop being a dream and it will be a reality. You'll be at my side. I know you hate when I wrestle, but I know that very deep inside your heart, you still love me as much as I love you. I know that our love keeps growing every single second. One day, we'll be together again. I'll have that opportunity one day. It may not be now, but it will happen, and trust me, I won't throw it away.

Chris enters his car as the rain hits the city. He takes a deep breath as he looks at the camera.
"MERCENNARIO" CHRIS DANIELSON:
Scott, see you in the ring. I know you want something more than just help your buddy Shawn Michaels. What is it? I don't know, but I want to become the very best. I want to hold the World Heavyweight Championship, so tonight, this may be the best chance to prove everyone that I've got what it takes to be on that playground.

Merc turns his look at the building again.

Merc turns the Chevelle's engine on. He drives away as behind him, that woman, his true love, was just running trying to catch him... She stops right where he parked. She pulls her hair back getting wet by the rain. She looks down and cries as the scene fades away to black.[/size]
