System by Chester Bennington begins to play as the lights in the arena dim down. On the titantron, a video begins to play, starting with a highlight of Drako performing a moonsault.
You fell away,
What more can I say?
The feelings evolved,
I won't let it out,
I can't replace
Your screaming face,
Feeling the sickness inside
Finally, the Soaring Dragon steps out onto the stage, a spotlight coming down on him as the only light in the arena. Dressed in black jeans and a dark navy blue sleeveless shirt, over which is a specially designed dark blue trenchcoat with a Dragon symbol in white on the back, he stands and looks out at the arena filled with fans. In his hands is a black metal bat, also new.
Why won't you die?
Your blood in mine
We'll be fine
Then your body will be mine
On the titantron, more of Drako's highlights appear, including a personal highlight of winning the Deific championship, mixed in with strange images of mountains, trees, and a strange old wooden cabin with a single light in it.
"Making his way to the ring, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 200 pounds, Drako!"
So many words
Can't describe my face
This feeling's evolved
So soon to break out
I can't relate
to a happy state
feeling the blood run inside
On the titantron, the screen goes a crimson red as Drako begins to make his way down the ramp. The spotlight follows him and the titantron changes again, resorting back to some of his other championship highlights, but still flickering back to the mountains, the trees, and the cabin, as well as shadowed shots of his face. as he approaches the ring, the music moves on into the chorus and then into the bridge.
Why is everything so ******** hard for me?
Keep me down to what you think I should be
Must you tempt me and provoke the ministry?
Keep on trying I'll not die so easily
The titantron images have changed again, as Drako walks up the steps and goes through the ropes to enter the ring
I will not die
Why is everything so ******** hard for me?
I will not die
Why is everything so ******** hard for me?
I will not die
Drako stands and looks out at the crowd, then turns to the entrance to await the arrival of his opponents while the music dies out.
While doing so, he removes the coat and places the bat in a corner. He takes the time to check the straps on his gloves, also a navy blue in color with dragon emblems on them as well. A championship tournament.....how interesting
