ACW Season 1: Hope vs Despair

by AshWrites99

North America has been plunged into Darkness by a faction known as despair. Many people have been left with nothing, but they have the opportunity to change that when Professional Wrestling is brought back to the continent. Titles and wins mean everything. This is a tale of violence, romance, friendship and war. (SYOC is closed. FIND SEASON 2 AND SUBMIT)

28. Final Destination Part 3

"Welcome back to Final Destination. It is time for a very important six man tag team match for Freddy Escobar. If he loses, then his wedding to Talia Brooks is off." David said

"Jacob Brooks has hated the idea of this wedding from the beginning. But now he's helping Freddy. Can he even work with Freddy or will things blow up tonight?" Evan said

Feel it comin' in the air (Yeah)
And the screams from everywhere (Yeah)
I'm addicted to the thrill (I'm ready)
It's a dangerous love affair (What's up, c'mon)
Can't be scared when it goes down
Got a problem, tell me now (What's up)
Only thing that's on my mind (Whats up)
Is who's gonna run this town tonight (What's up)
Is who's gonna run this town tonight (What's up)

"Jesus Garza, Rey Aguayo and Phoenix are coming out. With them is Talia Brooks, who has her hands cuffed together. Thankfully, it seems like they didn't hurt her." David said

"These guys are thugs from South of the border. I do not trust them. I do not like them." Evan said

"What a surprise. You hate the guys from Mexico." David said

"God forbid I have American pride." Evan said

We living in that 21st century, futuristic fly shit
The penthouse is the projects and everybody flies private
New watches; you know what time it is, watch us
They can't stop us, the prophets, biatches!

No one man should have all that power
The clock's ticking, I just count the hours
Stop tripping, I'm tripping off the power

"La Rebelion is a perfect unit. Rey Aguayo has some brawling. Jesus brings a powerhouse style. Phoenix is a innovative high flyer. These three have worked together for a while and no each other. This team on the other hand…" David said.

"Freddy Escobar and Caesar Montana have been together for a few years but Caesar's an idiot. Jacob Brooks and Freddy have teamed in the past, but they have lost. They better find out how to work together or this will be another failure for Freddy in our first season." Evan said

The bell rings as Talia sits on a steel chair near the timekeeper. There is security around her to keep her from escaping. Freddy and Jacob both seem to want to start the match as the crowd seems quiet, obviously burnt out from the last match. They exchange words until Freddy gives in and let's Jacob start against Rey Aguayo. The two men lock up, before Jacob puts him in a headlock. Jacob squeezes on the head of the 6'1 man. Rey tries to push Jacob into the ropes, but Jacob keeps ahold of Aguayo. Jacob then transitions into a Front Facelock, before forcing him down onto the ring mat. Jacob does a gator roll while on the mat. He does another one that takes him into his teams corner. Jacob gets to his feet, telling Freddy something. Freddy tags himself in. While Jacob holds Rey in a front facelock, Freddy hits Rey with a right hand. Jacob lets go, so Freddy can raise Rey Aguayo's up and hit him with a Knife edge chop. Rey backs up into the corner. Freddy drives the back of his elbow into Rey's face. He tags Caesar Montana in. Caesar enters the ring and backs up as Freddy stands in front of Rey, blocking him from escaping. Caesar charge toward him. Freddy is prepared to move as Caesar inches closer, but Rey Aguayo pushes Freddy right into Caesar. Caesar can't stop and hits Freddy, who yells "Dammit Caesar" from the ring mat. Caesar is surprised, but is even more shocked when Rey Aguayo sprints past him. Caesar turns around to see Rey leap forward and tag Jesus Garza into the match.

The crowd comes alive as Jesus Garza enters the ring. The 6'5 Latino looks at the 6'7 African American with no fear or worry on his face. He spits his gum out toward the crowd, before walking toward the middle of the ring, cussing up a Hispanic Storm toward Caesar who understands none of it. Jesus throws the first right hand at Caesar. Caesar tries to do his own, but Jesus ducks and hits another right to the side of the face. Jesus fires away with right hands causing Caesar to back up into the ropes. Jesus Irish whips Caesar, but Caesar reverse. Jesus rebounds off the ropes and uses the momentum to hit a flying shoulder block, knocking Caesar down. Both get to their feet and Jesus hits a pair of right hands, before Scoop Slamming the bodyguard. The crowd cheers as Jesus flexes for the crowd in his black wifebeater.

"Jesus Garza is one powerful man. He basically had an edge over Caesar in their exchange." David said

"And this a wrestling match, not a chess match, so it's very impressive." Evan said

Rey shouts at Jesus to pay attention as Caesar Montana makes a tag to Freddy Escobar. Jesus turns around to see Freddy enter the ring. Jesus runs toward him, but Freddy catches him with a running Elbow Smash. Freddy continues to run forward and knock Aguayo off the apron with a forearm. He dodges a punch to the face from Phoenix and turns around, to see Jesus coming at him. Freddy ducks underneath a clothesline from Jesus and runs toward his corner. Freddy runs onto the second turnbuckle and bounces down, before running back down and running toward Jesus. Jesus tries a clothesline again, but Freddy ducks underneath and jumps up to the second turnbuckle. He comes back with a crossbody, but Jesus catches him. Jesus then throws him up into the air, but Freddy lands behind Jesus. Garza turns around into a European Uppercut. Jesus backs up as Freddy runs at the middle rope and goes for a Springboard Roundhouse kick. Jesus ducks the kick. Freddy lands on his feet as Jesus tags Phoenix in. Phoenix slingshots into the ring, does a rolling thunder transitioned into an Uppercut. Freddy goes down, before Phoenix jumps in the air and hits a standing corkscrew Lateral Press. Phoenix then does a handstand, before transitioning into a corkscrew Leg Drop. He goes for a pin.

Kick out at 2.09!

"Phoenix is on a roll." Said David

"He rolled over Freddy's momentum when he was tag team." Said Evan

Phoenix waits for Freddy to get up and hits him with a double handed chop to the chest. Phoenix follows by jumping to the top rope, turning around and diving off with a 450 Splash. He hooks the leg for an early 2 count. Phoenix gets up and tags in Rey Aguayo. Rey does a Hilo to enter the ring as Phoenix hits a simultaneous Corkscrew Leg drop. Rey goes for another pin but Freddy kicks out at 2 again. Rey lifts him up and rams him back first into the corner. Rey then does a wrist lock, climbs up to the top turnbuckle before jumping off with a arm drag and transitioning into a standing arm lock. Rey then drives his knee into the back of Freddy's shoulder as he has the arm lock in. Freddy reaches backwards and punches Rey in the face a couple time. Before Rey gets punched again, he transitions into an armbar. He stretches the arm out as Freddy shouts in agony. Jacob Brooks enters the ring and runs toward the two illegally, but Phoenix Springboards over Rey and Freddy to catch him with a Springboard Dropkick.

Phoenix stands up and gets a big boot from Caesar. Jesus Garza then enters the ring and hits a Pump Kick to the chest, knocking Caesar down. Phoenix then runs off the ropes toward Jesus, who lifts him up into the air and over his head. Phoenix uses the boost to hit do a double foot stomp onto Freddy's arm, which is still in the armbar.

"All that weight just came down on Freddys arm." David said

"Freddy needs to tag put but his team is down." Evan said.

Rey lets go as Freddy squirms around in the ring holding his arms. Rey Aguayo drops down and puts Freddy in a Key Lock. Rey then slides back, before picking Freddy up with the Key Lock still locked in. Phoenix tagged himself in, before springboarding into the ring with a Double Foot Stomp to the back of Freddy, as Rey lets go of the Key Lock. Phoenix bounces off the ropes and comes back with a low dropkick to the side of the face. He then tags in Jesus Garza. Jesus enters the ring and does an Elbow Drop. He then lifts Freddy up by his hair and does a Hip Toss that sends Freddy into the middle of the ring. Freddy tries to crawl towards his corner where Jacob and Caesar extend their hand. Jesus grabs Freddy's foot and pulls him back. Jesus then runs forward and knocks Caesar off the ring apron with a punch. Jesus then turns around to see Freddy getting up to his feet. Freddy lunges at Jacob's hand, but Jesus catches him with a Standing Spinebuster. Jesus then turns around to punch Jacob Brooks in the face, but Jacob ducks and drapes Jesus's head over the top rope. Jesus is wobbling as Freddy crawls between his legs and tags in Jacob Brooks, who gets back on the ring apron!

Jacob charges toward the woozy Jesus and hits a flying Clothesline. Jacob then does a Knee drop, before picking Jesus up. Jacob connects with a Snap Suplex before floating over into a pin for a 2 count. Jacob picks Jesus up and puts him in Pumphandle position, but before he can pick him up, Jesus uses the raised arm to elbow the side of his face. Garza proceeds to lifts Jacob up and drop him with a Michinoku Driver. Jesus rolls away from Jacob as Freddy yells at Caesar to extend his hand to get the nearby Jacob to tag him in. Jesus crawls toward his teams corner as Jacob sits up shaking his head. He sees Jesus about to tag Phoenix in. Jacob doesn't try to go after him and rolls over to tag Caesar in. Phoenix is tagged in as well. Caesar enters the ring and runs toward La Reblion's corner. But Phoenix catches him with a slingshot Frankensteiner into a pin!

"Did you see the speed! Caesar was running one second and down on the ground the next!" David said

Rey Aguayo enters the ring to do a Running Senton as Phoenix hits a simultaneous Front Flip Leg Drop across the throat. Phoenix rolls out of the ring, as Rey Aguayo covers him.

Rey instantly puts him in a Hammerlock and forces the big man up. He's going for his signature Caida del Rey (Legsweep Hammerlock DDT)! But Caesar pushes him off of him before he can hit it. Caesar fires away with a pair of jabs, before hitting a right haymaker. Caesar picks Rey up and Irish whips him into his team's corner. Caesar hits a running boot into the corner, before tagging Freddy in. Rey Aguayo takes a few steps forward, before falling to his knees, out of it after the boot.

Caesar goes after Jesus, but is lifted up and given a Spinning Spinebuster from him instead. Jesus then runs toward Jacob Brooks, but Brooks pulls down the ropes and Jesus flies over him and onto the floor. Jacob gets back to a vertical base on the ring apron, then Phoenix appears out of nowhere with a Triangle Dropkick to Jacob, knocking him off. Phoenix looks down at the three men, but before he can do anything, he is turned around by Caesar and kicked in the gut. Caesar lifts him up in Powerbomb position, but Phoenix reverses into a Hurricanrana. Caesar flies out of the ring and onto the ring apron. Phoenix then grabs the top rope and slingshots out of the ring, onto Caesar's shoulder, before hitting a Reverse Frankensteiner off the ring apron! Caesar backflips into Jesus, Jacob and Rey. The crowd chants "This is Awesome!" in appreciation as Freddy is alone in the ring with Rey Aguayo. The two trade punches in the center of the ring. Aguayo gets the edge, backing Freddy up into the ropes. Rey Aguayo runs off the ropes, but comes back into a Superkick! Before he falls, Freddy catches Aguayo and hits his finisher, Execution (Rolling Cutter)! Freddy hooks the leg!

"Talia just pulled Rey Aguayo out of the ring?!" Evan said

"What the hell is going on?!" David exclaims

Freddy is shocked as Talia stands next to the carcass of Rey Aguayo on the outside floor. Jacob Brooks sees this and confronts her sister as the ref yells from inside the ring. "What are you doing?!" Jacob shouts. Freddy stands up and exits the ring to talk to Talia. But from out of nowhere, Jesus Garza catches Freddy on the side of the head with a Pump Kick. Phoenix then leapfrogs over Jesus's head to catch Caesar with a Mushroom Stomp as he starts to get up. Jesus rolls Freddy in, before hitting an irate Jacob with an Uppercut. Phoenix helps Aguayo up and helps him into the ring. Rey Aguayo picks Freddy up and hits the Caida del Rey! Rey rolls him onto his back for the pin as Talia smiles.

"After 22:01, this match ends with Talia Brooks ending the chances of her own marriage with Freddy Escobar." David said as Talia enters the ring with Jesus and Phoenix

"But why? They kidnapped her?!" Evan vents

"Or did they?" David speculates before with see Talia kiss Jesus Garza's over Freddy's body, before spitting on him.

"Wait...was she in on this the whole time? But Jacob Brooks was on Freddy's team? I need sources and answers and I need them soon." Evan said as Jacob Brooks leans against the guardrail watching, not knowing what to think.

"Up next, the first of our three main events will take place. It is Jason Sabre versus Rey Pantera in Fight Without Honor 2. Jason is Detrick's best friend. Rey is the legendary mentor of Detrick and leader of Hope. What will happen up next?" Questions David

(Video Package)

Gohan's Anger Theme plays in the background

"You know what I don't understand. How did we get here? You liked me at first even though I wasn't one of your own…" Jason narrates

"So you're the infamous Jason Sabre that I've heard so many things about. I'm not going to lie, I've been impressed with what I've seen from you." Rey said as he sits in a chair in front of the standing Jason and Detrick.

"Thanks. I really needed approval from you." Jason said, rolling his eyes, before Detrick nudges him. "I totally didn't mean that in a sarcastic way in case you were wondering."

"Yeah, he'll totally believe that." Detrick sighs.

"Right." Rey said, before getting up from his chair. "I don't mind the attitude. I can see that you're a good person. Detrick wouldn't have recommended you if you weren't."

"Recommended me for what? I already told him that I'm not joining Hope." Jason said as he turns his head to Detrick.

"I am aware of that. But you are a great Professional Wrestler and I think that you are better as an ally than our enemy." Rey said.

"You wanted me as an alley. But then came the moment...well match that changed your views. The first Fight Without Honor. Who was it against? Will Ralston right? That arrogant piece of crap who antagonized me."

Highlights of the match: Jason Sabre and Will Ralston swinging chairs at each other. Followed by Jason hitting Will with a Barbed Wire Chair. Then Jason pulling Ralston's hair out with the barbed wire chair. Ralston hitting the Reverse 1916 on a barbed wire board. Ralston spitting Jason's bloody face on his knees, before Sabre stood up and told him to just bring it. Sabre hitting a Hollow Point (Sitout Tombstone Piledriver) onto Thumbtacks. Then Ralston trying a Corkscrew Splash through a table, only for Sabre to kip up and hit a Final Blow through it.

"So then you and your gang turned on me and you tried to get Detrick to turn on me."

"And what about Jason?" Rey asked

"What about him? He beat Ralston last week and earned his spot at Glory Road. Tonight is the same." Detrick said

"Last week, he brutalized Will. Will had to stay home tonight to heal from that match and he lost a giant patch of hair on his head. He could do the same thing to you." Rey said

"Are you trying to stir the pot? You seemed cool with him last week." Detrick said

"I'm okay with him and I think he could be a good asset. But still, he's a nomad." Rey said

"He's not a Nomad, he my little brother." Detrick said. "Last week was a match where he took on someone he hates. Even if it's in the spirit of competition, he wouldn't go that far against me."

"How can you be so sure?" Rey questions. "He's a wildcard."

"With all due respect master, you say that because you don't know him. I do know him. I know him better than anyone and he would never cross that line unless it's deserved. With Will, it was deserved. Don't worry about Jason, he's not a threat to Hope. He's an alley." Detrick said

"But as time progressed I started to think he was joining you and not me."

Sabre gets to his feet, only for Detrick to hit him with a Roundhouse kick to the side of the head. The Ace goes down as Detrick gets a little bit of heat from a small amount of fans,

"Detrick strikes his friend for the first time in this Triple Threat match after saving him from Azriel." David said

"So I fought Hope for the sake of our friendship. I needed to pull him away from Hope before you pulled him away from me."

"SABER-US! SABER-US! SABER-US!" Chants fangirls as the two make eye contact in public for the first time since Glory Road.

"Let's take these motherfuckers down, bro." Jason said, before extending his fist.

"I'm in." Detrick said, before going for a fist bump only for Will Ralston to slap his hand, eliciting heavy boos from the crowd.

"Quit being a traitor! You just beat the greatest wrestler in Hope. You don't need him to beat Azriel!" Will shouts as CJ Hawk gets to his feet…

Final Blow to Will! The crowd explodes as CJ and Detrick watch. Detrick does nothing, but CJ instantly gets in Sabre's face.

"What the heck was that man?! You're supposed to be on our side!" CJ asks, before getting two middle fingers and his own Final Blow. That's when Detrick steps in. Jason and Detrick look at each other.

Cut to Episode 12

"Okay. You're not going to win, but I accept." Jason said, before turning his head to Rey Pantera. "Now what hospital is Detrick in?"

Rey looks Sabre straight in the eyes

"You're one of them, aren't you?" Rey said

"What?" Jason raises a brow.

"Last week, they didn't touch you and you attacked two members of Hope. This week, Detrick gets hit over the head with a scepter and a knife stabbed through his hand. CJ was there. Will was there. Where were you? On that podcast with Evan Neal, you got defensive when he brought up the potential of tension between you two. Are you using Detrick?" Rey said

"Are you fucking kidding me? " Jason said, getting Rey's face. "I'm not using anybody. I have a thousand problems right now. I was stuck in my locker room, because some chick-"

"You're friend's getting attacked and you stayed in a locker room for a girl! You are a selfish young man who made an enemy with Despair. Sooner or later, Detrick will accept what your true colors are." Rey said

"True colors? I'm not faking anything. He knows that." Jason said.

"You are not good. You're Despair. I know you are." Rey said

"Fuck you!" Sabre said, before throwing a punch at Rey. CJ quickly jumped in and the two started to trade shots in the parking lot, before Rey grabs CJ and pulls him back.

"They didn't trust me. But then came the Hellfire Trinity and that's where I found out that it was time for me to change, because you had changed, Detrick. Giselle was right. My Destiny lies with Despair, not you."

The song changes to Change by Deftones as we cut to the church scene in Episode 13

"Everything you own is because of me. I deserve to be in your spot Detrick. I just let you have it and you threw me away once you got it. Why should I be your friend when I can be the King of Despair?" Jason said

"Sacrifice your bond with Detrick for your future or Detrick will sacrifice his bond with you for his success. I know that this is tough, but not everyone can be happy at the end of the story. It is time Jason." Giselle said as she stood inches away from Sabre.

"No….it's not." Jason said before turning around and starting to walk out the door.

"Are you actually giving up your child's life for your friendship!?" Giselle shouts causing Jason to stop and think. "Why can't you think?! Why are you so loyal to him! He's done nothing for you! You gave him that mask!"

Jason turns his head towards her

"How do you know?" Jason quietly says

"You gave him everything?! And what did you get in return? He wouldn't even be in Hope if it wasn't for you." Giselle said, yelling for the first time. "I know Jason. I know, that years ago, you switched test papers with him so he could get into Hope. It should've been you, but you gave up all the fame, so he could be happy. How did he return the favor? He left! And you still want to be on his side. You're an idiot Jason! This is why everyone left you behind, because you let them!"

Jason froze up. Giselle walked up to him and looked him dead in the eyes.

I watched you change
Into a fly
I looked away
You're on fire

One rung left for Sabre with Detrick two rungs away. Sabre reaches with his right hand, but pulls back when he feels too much pain in his right hand. Detrick gets on the same rung. Detrick then climbs over Jason's body onto the top of the ladder and grabs the briefcase…

Jason grabs Detrick's foot….

But it's too late! Detrick pulls the briefcase down!

"It's over! There will be no steel cage match, after 10:36 in this TLC match and 1 hour 8 minutes and 21 seconds of a Hellfire Trinity, Detrick Cyrus has beat Jason Sabre two times!" David said as Detrick looks down at Jason with the briefcase in his lap. Jason looks at him from the bottom rung in disappointment as he crawls down the ladder.

"Detrick Cyrus is going to Final Destination! The Ultimate Hope vs The King of Despair is official for ACW Final Destination in four weeks!" Evan said as Jason rolls out of the ring while the crowd give the two a standing ovation for the match. Jason walks up the ramp, slowly, ignoring the reaction.

"Jason has nothing to be ashamed of." David said as Detrick climbs the ladder and hugs Rey Pantera, who then raises his hand. Detrick looks at his friend walking up the ramp.

"Yes he does! He's a loser! You fought for over an hour but you lost. You're not going to be main eventing! Detrick is! You're the other friend." Evan said

Sabre sits alone underneath a tree in his hoodie. His head rests against the tree has he looks up at the night sky. Suddenly he notices a figure standing above him. He looks up to see Giselle.

"I see that you're finally starting to get it." Giselle said.

Jason looks at her quietly before standing up. The two lock eyes for a second.

"Yeah...I am…" Jason Sabre said, before walking away from her. Soon Giselle stands alone or at least she thinks she does. Why? Becuase standing behind a tree in the distance is Micah Hyde with a smile on his face

I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
And you feel so alive
I have watched you change

"To begin your transition into the King of Despair." Micah said. "I need to cleanse you."

Suddenly, Jason felt Micah's hand push against his chest. Jason falls back and loses his balance. He falls backwards toward the water, before a giant splash can be seen. Soon, Jason Sabre finds himself submerged in water. As he continues to fall deeper into the body of water, he starts to see his life flash before his eyes. A baby Jason walking, A now toddler Jason and a little older boy playing catch, A child around the same age of standing over Jason who is bleeding from his mouth, an eight year old Jason with blood on his hands, Jason sitting alone on a swing set, Jason laying on a bed as a teenager looking at the ceiling, Jason and two hispanic boys in the park, Jason talking to a Honduran girl at a club, then Jason kissing that same girl with a priest in front of them and the two boys from earlier beside them, clearly older and one of them resembling Freddy, A happy Jason then holding a baby as the woman is smiling from the bed, Jason helping his daughter walk, Jason watching as his wife leaves the house with his daughter, Jason handing Detrick Cyrus' mask over to the other guy from the wedding, Jason riding a motorcycle down a street with people in Despair masks (Episode one) chasing after him, Jason and Detrick sitting next to each other in the ring after the match, Jason and Freddy's staredown before their match, Jason kissing Giselle outside of the bar, Jason getting his hand raised after Fight without Honor, Drinking with Detrick and CJ Hawk at the bar, Giselle riding Sabre before Glory Road, Punching Rey Pantera, and lastly Detrick climbing over to him grab his briefcase.

"So this is Despair." Jason thinks as the water fills his lungs and his eyes slowly close

I took you home
Set you on the glass
I pulled off your wings
Then I laughed
I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I have watched you change

"The place where you will battle with your inner demon." Micah said.

"Inner demon?" Jason questions, before cutting to him and Detrick having a staredown.

Jason connects with a Final Resolution (Strong Style Knee Strike)

"What kind of friend is that?!"

Jason shouts below to Detrick who lays on the floor. He then notices that Detrick's mask is cracking.

"What the hell." Jason said as Micah approach

"You defeated your demons." Micah said as the mask continued to crumble away.

"His mask…" Jason said as he watched it crack

"You defeated Detrick and more importantly…" Micah spoke as the mask fully broke off and fell off from Detrick's face. And that's when Jason's eyes widen.

It wasn't Detrick Cyrus laying on the floor. It was Jason Sabre.

It's like you never had wings
Anh, ahah
Anh, ahah
Anh, ahah
Anh, ahah
Anh, ahah

"For you, it's about your change into Despair. For me, I took this Fight without Honor to make one last stand against Despair before passing the torch." Rey Pantera spoke

"Then prove it. You've been sitting out as your students stand on the frontlines of ACW. Prove that you're still worthy by fighting Jason Sabre at Final Destination." Giselle said

"Why are you so keen on having me fight Jason?" Asked Rey

"Isn't it obvious by now. I'm in his home after all in a very beautiful black dress." She said as she stood up and saunters toward the masked legend. "My night pillows are on display. How foolish can you be? Jason Sabre has fallen for me. He is the next King of Despair."

"My suspicions were right. He was with you guys all along." Rey said.

"Not always, but Detrick broke him. His loss to him was too much to take and now he will stand with us." Giselle said, grinning a little bit, before biting her lip sensually "And more importantly, me."

"Tell him that I will fight him at Final Destination." Rey Pantera said, before pushing past Giselle and heading toward the door.

"By the way, Master Pantera." Giselle spoke, causing him to stop. "It will not be traditional. It will be a Fight Without Honor. Your time on this earth will be shortened and Detrick Cyrus will watch his best friend be the cause of that."

"I won't let him." Rey said.

"Your destiny has been decided. You can't change it now." Giselle said

I look at the cross
And I look away
Give you the gun
Blow me away

"My torch has been passed, My goodbyes have been said. I am ready" Rey Pantera narrates

"Detrick, at Final Destination, you will win the ACW World Championship from Azriel. It's destiny. At Final Destination the torch will be passed and you will take your spot on top of Hope."

"What do you mean?" Detrick asked

"You're ready Detrick. I'm stepping down as the leader of Hope and passing it on to you after Final Destination. This is your organization now." Rey said, before pulling Detrick in for a hug. "I'm proud of you son."

Cut to the next episode at the Carnival

"Detrick takes over Hope. I think it's about time that I go." Rey said, before walking away. "I'll see you when I see you."

Maria watched him walk away

"Rey…" Maria said, causing him to stop. "Come back in one piece"

"I can't promise anything. I can only promise one thing and that is that Fight Without Honor 2 is my Final Destination." Rey Pantera said, before walking into the sunset as Maria watches.

I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I have watched you change
And you feel alive
You feel alive
You feel alive
I have watched you change
It's like you never had wings

"Not this goodbye. No…."

"Jason…" She weakly whispered, pulling Jason in for a hug. Blood poured from her chest. "I love you."

"No...no...no!" Every no grew louder.

Jax reached over and broke up the hug by pulling her mom off of him by her raven black hair.

"No...No...NO JAX!" He thinks, but he can't say

"Watch little brother….watch and live in Despair, knowing that you're hero and brother killed your mother and father." Jax said before using the dagger to slit her throat. A clean line of blood formed on her neck, before he let go.

"NOOOOOOOO!"

Jason shook in sorrow as tears streamed down his face. Jax turned his back to him and started to walk away.

"Maybe one day, you'll avenge them and kill me. Or maybe one day, I'll find you and see that you're still a weak, scared little child who can't do anything and I'll kill you, so you can join them." Jax said, before walking out the door. The young child, Jason Sabre was on all fours, crying in his blood stained shirt over the image of his mom and dad being killed in front of him again. The pain hurt. Soon Jason was no longer a child and back to his adult form, but it didn't stop the tears. The Ace of Pro Wrestling was reduced to tears as if he was a child.

"You're weak." Micah Hyde said. "This wasn't so you can relive your worst moment. This was a reminder of what your brother told you that night. All of this. You can avenge it. You just have to embrace the hate inside that you have."

Jason listened as tears dripped from his eyes and cheek onto the floor. Jason looks at his mom and then his dad.

"I'll kill him." Jason said causing Micah to smile. Jason puts his hand into the pool of his mother's blood and stands up. He balls it into fist. The blood slowly drips from his. "I'll kill anyone just to get to him."

"Good Jason...feed off this hate and make Rey Pantera reach his Final Destination." Micah smiles as Jason stands over the body of his dead mother with hate in eyes.

"My Hatred" Jason said

"My Legacy" Rey Pantera said

"Fight Without Honor 2!" Both say
