”Funny how life works. SHIDO thought I was ‘too clingy’. Thought I didn’t know what I was getting into. Especially with the way he insisted I would always get hurt.”

Joseph rolls his eyes.

”Well, duh. This is wrestling. Yes, I’m relatively new to this sport. But I’m not that stupid. Hell, the last time we had a Twitter exchange, I was still recuperating from an injury. What I, personally, found the most ironic was that for all his talk, he couldn’t handle a loss. Some god he was.”

His head shakes as he chuckles.

”For now, I’ll leave the topic alone at that. Though not before sneaking one last line about the man in. I’m glad he’s gone. He was a poison to Sam, and a crappy mentor. She deserved so much better than him. Sure, her return here’s been tough. But I know she’ll bounce back. That’s just the kind of woman she is.”

As he begins to reach down, the camera zooms out far enough to reveal he has a quiver over his back and a bow held tightly in his right arm.

”As someone who has recorded Sam ever since she began professionally fighting, I can only assume that you, Miss Scene, are new to these fields. Just as I am. Well …”

He pauses, focusing on notching an arrow and pulling it back.

”Let me make this clear. The moment you step foot inside the ring with me, I won’t hold back. Had you met me years ago, you would have maybe been able to convince me not to hit you. Unfortunately, Kara, I’ve gotten rid of my pacifist side. The more accurate wording, rather, is I started allowing that to slowly vanish the moment I met Sam. It simply got strengthened when I started fighting for a previous company.”

The arrow whistles as Joseph lets go of it and it flies forward, landing in a tree about twenty paces away. Orion smirks proudly and we see he didn’t just hit the target. The arrow landed right in the bullseye area.

”So, point being, your gender won’t save you. Everyone is fair game the moment they get in the ring with me.”

He reaches behind him once again, this time grabbing two arrows.

”Although my original start was brief, I realize my mistakes. I was far too generous. SHIDO was right about one thing he told me once; almost no one gives a damn about others in this sport. There are very few people who do. And even then? They may not always be around. I won’t lie, that is a small part of why I came here, yes. It wouldn’t kill Sam to have an ally of sorts.”

Joseph shrugs.

”I doubt she’ll need me much, if at all. But hey, better safe than sorry. Infact, Archer kinda helped strengthen my decision to come here. Regardless of whether that had happened or not though? I would have signed myself up to fight for Elysium. It’s been in my sights ever since I decided to finally step foot into the ring. I was merely delayed for a bit. But now … here I am. Very willing, able, and ready to fight.”

Orion carefully aligns the two arrows so one is inches above the other. He stares sternly at the target, focusing solely on the circle. His gaze lingers there for a good minute or so before finally … he lets go. They land on either side of the first, securing their spots within the bullseye area.

Barely … but enough that it still counts.

”I don’t know you and you don’t know me. To be more precise, I don’t really think many people within Elysium truly knows me very well. But here’s all you need to know about me, Kara. I’m done being nice … as far as being inside a ring goes, anyway. It’s nothing personal - not unless you make it that way. Just .. too many people have ruined their chances by being stupid around me. I’ve tried though. I really have. Someone always decides to shove my generosity back at me, so … you’re outta luck.

“That being said, you have the opportunity to prove just how hard I should beat you. Are you gonna try to be some irritating bitch? Or are you gonna be a good sport after our fight ends, regardless of the result? Because if you can do option B, you’ll get hurt just because you were unfortunate enough to be put against me. If you go with A, though?”

Joseph shrugs.

”Well … that’s why I’m giving you fair warning now.”

Orion walks up and begins pulling the arrows out of the target, as well as the tree. He then turns and looks back towards the lens after placing the last arrow into his quiver.

”Contrary to what the now fallen and disappeared ‘God child’ wanted to think, I am very prepared and ready. I’m coming in with a clean record, an open mind, and more than enough ammunition to hunt and shoot you down. Proverbially, of course; but it’s the overall message that matters in the end. I’ll see you soon, Kara.”

Joseph flashes a knowing smirk at the camera before the feed shuts off and the promo comes to an end.
