Masks

"There is no time to rest! Keep pushing!"

The scene finally comes alive, we are outside at first. As the camera gives a overall view of the location. After a couple of minutes, It appears we are in Mexico City. But not in complete modern time. It's the year two-thousand and seven, after a belief look of Mexico City, the camera stops into front of a gym.

It's a pretty run day gym from the outside, as we make our way inside it's pretty run down inside as well. A lot of outdated equipment. Maybe a couple which are pretty newer. As we see many alethic men, women and also older people just doing lighter workouts just to stay in shape. But we also have some skinny citizens. 

You thought you will just see only Mexicans. But it is quite a few other ethics around as well. Maybe due to the cheap prices, some victors are able to get in a good workout while on business or vacation.

"A few more laps until break time you guys! "

Camera switches to where the voice came from, which was from the back of the gym. Where so happen a wrestling in is set up. As we get closer. We see children bouncing of the ropes running laps. Even though these kids are running at great speeds they are not running into each other. There are four children running the ropes, two are boys and the other two are girls. Out of all the children one seems quite different. One of the little girls are wearing a mask and the mask so happen to have a star placed on the front of it.

All four of the children are giving it their all. But it's obvious the girl in the mask is going even faster, pushing herself even harder. Until finally....

"It's break!"

We see all four of the children stop. All of them trying to catch their breath. As three of the children exit the ring. Still standing in the middle of the ring is young girl in the star branded mask. She looks up at the flicking lights, inhaling from her nose and exhaling out of her mouth. Suddenly entering the ring we see a rough looking Mexico man. He is wearing a wife-beater and sweat shorts.

He approaches the little girl, after every stomp he made the ring slightly shook. But she doesn't feel intimated one bit. He finally made it towards her, his size towering over her. His shadow consuming her. She looks up at him, no fear in her eyes. He raises a hand and pats her atop of the head.

"Keep up the hard work, Lone Star."

She gives a cheerful smile as the camera goes out of focus and finally fades to black.

Back to the present

We see Talia standing by her motel window, her eyes is were closed. She slowly opens her eyes. Talia looks down and in her hands is a mask. A mask with a star in the middle of it.She sits down the mask on her table, where her laptop is rested. She flips it open and sets the webcam feature starting the video.

"Mask, we all wear them. Anaquin at this very moment you are wearing a mask. This mask of being the "Universal Superstar". You see Anaquin I used to wear a mask as well. When I first started my career in Mexico I hide my face under a mask. I followed the traditions of Lucha libre to the letters. Under honor of the respect to that mask and my family."

Talia picks up the mask, showing it on camera.

"Until the moment I lost my mask in a match. At that very moment I thought I lost my honor. That my mask was more than what it was, now don't get me wrong I respect my mask. But it wasn't the end for me, at that moment Talia Areano was born."

She gives a cheerful smile.

"I was reborn at that moment, Once you fully disconnected yourself from our mask known as the Universal Superstar at that moment you will be free. You will be a better you and I want that. Now I do agree with you our first time facing didn't end the way I wanted. I wanted to beat you fair and square. But thanks to management I will have the chance to right those wrongs."

Running her fingers through her long dark brown hair.

"I know you have been on a losing streak lately and I know you see this match as a moment to bounce. Plus a chance to win a championship as well. But I won't allow that to come to past, I'm very sorry. I have been there in the past, more times I can count and no matter how disappointed I would be, I improved. I got better and fought harder and I have won championship all over the global because I never gave up. Even though you might not come out on top in this match. Give me a fight, show me what you are willing to do to put me down and take this championship from my hands."

Talia gives a smile and a nod.

"I told the Fempire to stay out of this match this time around. With the extra security it is really assuring. The moment I won this championship I wanted to instill honor and respect behind it. Even before I won this championship I have been on a roll and now that I have it. I have still picked up wins. Having won my recent match in Rose City against some of the best women in the world."

Talia holds up a one finger, pausing for a second.

"Not only that, but I am also challenging for my first ever world championship in America. A moment I thought will never happen. All the title's I have won in the America, maybe all over the world isn't bigger than this upcoming title match I am having. I plan on walking into the title match still the honors champion. Finally I want to be a double champion and I will go to war to achieve that goal."

Her face becomes serious, that cheerful smile now gone.

"This might not be a blood feud. But I tell you now security might need to be at ringside. Because this will be a battle and all out war for what I hold dearly. I have trained long and hard. Preparing myself for whatever you through at me. With all this needed training, experience and will power. I will walk out still the CWD Honors Champion. See you out there."

Talia blows a kiss to the camera. She finally shuts it off, smile on her face as the scene fades to black.
