And the results are in.... (o2a and spoilers)

[browne]

Nathan, sitting in his locker room with a towel draped over his shoulder, sighs heavily. At Mayday he charged into the ring to receive his first win. This week, he came out to battle Xavier and obtained his first win over a veteran. His career was starting to pick up. The fans recognized him when he made his way out to the ring. A smile began to form on his lips.

Nate looks at his knuckles. They were stained with Xavier's blood. That alone was something to piss off Micheal.. However, he also took away Mike's chance at fighting Bryan Jasta, and for that he expected his door to be smashed open any second now by one mad dragon.

[Osiris]

But it was not a angry dragon that came in, it was another XWA rookie, Osiris, who also has picked up two wins since his debut.

Osiris: It is going just like I said it would. I knew you could beat him, just like I knew that I could beat Dante. Nice job out there.

[browne]

Nate looks up at Osiris.

Thanks, bro. It felt good to beat a veteran, if not a legend of this business. Made me feel like I'm able to take on the world, haha. You had a pretty damn nice match, too. Oh, and you still going to take on Mikey? He's probably gunna be WAY pissed that a rookie beat his ass down. That might not be a good thing going into a match with him.

[Osiris]

Osiris: Hmm. It does not matter. He will fall, just like everyone else. Besides, we have to think about Soul Survivor. I already have mine, you need to find one for yourself. That is, if your going to be in it.

[browne]

Soul Survivor, hmm? I don't know. I'll definitely compete at the event, but maybe not in the tag-events.

[Osiris]

Osiris: Now that's a shame. Oh well, good luck with whoever you face then.

[xflame]

As Osiris finished speaking, at the door frame, stood Michael Xavier. Blood dripping from his face. A second week in a row that he did not go seek medical attention to get stitched up. At this point though, Michael could care less about being stitched up. He now had a vendetta against Nathan Browne. Partially for losing to Browne, but for taking away his one chance to face Bryan Jasta 1 on 1. Just how would Michael respond? Would it be the usual ranting, raving and smashing of funiture, or would be it a cold, calculating and unexpected response from Michael. Or would it be something entirely different? There would only be one way to find out.

Michael stepped into the locker room. He turned his head and looked over at Osiris....

I will deal with you at a later time. Go and deal with your own demons. I have one in here that needs to be dealt with. And if you don't leave right now, then I'll be forced to get some holy water and splash it on you. Now piss off.

[/b]

Michael turns his attention to Nathan.

As for you. I warned you that you would have my ire should you have won. Now you have my undivided attention. That is a very BAD thing to have Nathan. Of course I expect you to return with whatever remarks that you're brewing in your head. But make no mistake. You may not be Jasta. You sure as hell don't have his skill and while you did manage to get a win over me, when we meet at the next Takedown, and we will be facing each other then. You will not able to get the win over me.

I'm not making any excuses for myself. You are skilled. You will go far in this business, but I'll be damned if you're going to get one over me. So you best prepare for a long journey, because its not going to be an easy one for you.[/b][/center]

[Osiris]

Osiris (amused): Holy water? Please. That stuff has no effect on me. I'm too powerful for that.

[browne]

Not REALLY what I expected. I guess you could call me stupid for expecting a nice warm congratulation, but you could also call yourself a liar then. Last time I checked you said you'd shake my hand if I beat you. Well, it was no if, I beat the holy high hell out of you. But whatever. I'm cool with it. If I were one mad dragon I wouldn't want to shake the hand of the man that just beat me.

At this point, Nathan smirks. He wasn't big on attacking someone verbally, but he did what he had to do.

If you want a rematch, meet me before Takedown to make it official. We fought in my specialty this week, so I'll give you the upper hand next week. Don't tell me, cuz I like surprises. Oh, and try and come up with something good? I'm giving you a full week to make a match you excel in, the least you could do is come up with a nice little stipulation.

[xflame]

I did say that I would shake your hand. And before I leave this room, I intend to do so. As for the Dragon monkier, that's my brother, not me. Best remember that for next time, alright?

I already got my match in mind. The one that I excel in. But don't worry, I'm not going to tell you what the match is. And I'll be glad to add in a stipulation to the match as well.

[/b]

Michael looks over at Osiris.

Don't you have some children to go terrorize?[/b][/center]

[browne]

Nate shakes his head slowly, simply staring at Micheal.

Listen, just make your way to the ring later tonight. I'll be waiting. I don't care what your match, or your stipulation is because I don't intend on losing. Alright? Good. I'll meet you in the ring.

And with that, Nate heads off to the ring.
