It's just before dawn on a Thursday morning. Howard 'The Bank' Thompson is back in Las Vegas, Nevada after he was suppose to wrestle for Warped. Unfortunately he arrived on a plane back from Philly last night with a different state of mind as he woke up in his hotel room bed. Howard had taken a plane out there to settle some issues with the organization. He currently has his watch on, looked outside of his hotel room window and it was still dark out.

Howard: "I keep forgetting I'm in a different time zone."

Howard puts his hand in his face and droops it down before turning around and beginning his day.

Howard: "First things first... a shower."

Thompson goes walking into the bathroom and he closes the door behind him. In no time at all he exits the shower all clean and ready to take on the day.

Howard: "Let's just put it this way..."

He pauses, getting himself dressed and putting on his shoes.

Howard: "I didn't think it would come to this, but I'm going to have to exit early out of the tour."

He nods his head while heading out the hotel room door and walking down a flight of steps towards his limousine that has pulled up.

Howard: "sVo is getting interesting and I've got to watch my back. Nobody's there to just get a paycheck, they're there to be on top! And I've got to be on my best, especially this Sunday night."

Thompson would be facing Johnny All-Star in a match this Sunday in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Goodfella's Casino. Showdown #36 was shaping up to be a huge event.

Howard: "I don't see why we're even wrestling in the middle of the event. Everybody knows me and Johnny All-Star deserve to be the main event. But of course not, not as long as Night is around. Nothing against him, but nobody cares about any other match then me and All-Star going toe to toe for the very first time, in history!"

Howard walks up to the back of the limo and opens the door. He steps inside and nobody is there. His driver appears to be Burns though as they talk a little bit.

Burns: "So you ready to hit the gym?"

Howard nods his head as Burns looks in the mirror at him.

Howard: "Yes, very much so. More then I thought I would be actually, let's get going!"

Burns smiles in the rear view mirror when Thompson just sits in his seat looking down at the phone next too him.

Howard: "Time to call Amy!"

Howard quickly picks up the phone and presses one of the speed dial numbers at the top that is her number.

Ring.....

Ring......

Someone picks up.

???: "Hello?"

It's a females voice.

Howard: "Hey baby!"

It's obviously Amy's voice as Howard can tell.

Amy: "It's nice to hear from you!"

Howard: "Likewise, what have you been doing?"

Amy's voice began to sound uptight but in a joking matter. She was never the type of girl to be all too serious or lovey dubby, only on occasions.

Amy: "Oh you know... the usual. Working, going to the gym and hanging with friends. I got my own place now eh!"

Howard: "Really? That's good news and how ironic... I am heading to the gym right now!"

Amy: "Nice. So when are you going to be back home?"

The same question as always...

Howard: "Soon enough. I'm coming home next week after I finish up my business in Las Vegas. I can't wait to see you!"

Amy smiled on the other end of the line.

Howard: "Alright, well you go kick some butt!"

Howard laughs.

Howard: "I will, don't worry. See ya soon, take it easy!"

Amy: "You too!"

The two of them then hung up the phone as Howard sits there after placing the phone back down on the charger in the back of his long black stretch limousine. Moments later he would arrive to the local gym in downtown Vegas for some extra training.

Howard: "Time to go get ready to beat Johnny All-Star... I can't take him easily, he's a good wrestler. Lots of talent and a former champion in the sVo. I think calling Warped Wrestling and telling them to shove it was a good idea. I need to focus on this match ahead and I know Johnny will do the exact same thing!"

With that being said, Howard takes off to the gym for a work out regimen.

After a couple hours of working out and getting himself all fixed up in the bathroom there, Howard 'The Bank' Thompson found his way downtown towards the Goodfella's Casino arena. Thompson was going with Burns his limo driver to meet with Jeeves the bodyguard who was given the day off for a job well done thus far to being back with the band.

Howard and Burns arrive and park the big long black stretch limousine across the front of the building. The two men walk into the cafe side of it and grab something to drink when they look over to a table and sitting there is Jeeves himself. Burns begins to walk towards him now as Howard follows behind.

Burns: "How long you been here for?"

Howard shoves Burns out of the way as he sits down at the table with Jeeves.

Howard: "Who cares, anyways let's get down to business!"

Burns goes ahead and sits down with them now. Jeeves looks up and down at Howard with a weird look upon his face.

Howard: "What?"

Jeeves smiles.

Jeeves: "You look ready, that's all. Very focused, I can see it in your eyes. What did you do too him, Burnsy?"

Burns chuckles hysterically.

Burns: "I just drove him around, honest."

Howard looks at Burns with a grin on his face, then to Jeeves.

Howard: "Well hey, what can I say? I've got a big match coming up and I've got to be ready. This is Johnny All-Star after all."

Burns and Jeeves look at each other, than back to Howard.

Burns: "It's going to be the best match sVo has seen in quite some time."

Jeeves tips his glass too him and then takes a gulp of his drink.

Jeeves: "You got that right. Make sure you get the job done, Howard."

Howard looks upward at them both but with his eyes still open.

Howard: "Oh believe me, I will. This isn't the past guys, this is the present and the present is what you see in front of your very own eyes. Johnny All-Star is good, but he's not great. He's not me and he never will be. Over the years boys, everybody wanted to see our match. Hell, me and All-Star should be wrestling on pay-per-view, not Showdown!"

He pauses, then continues.

Howard: "I proved it by beating Magical Top Hat Hunter, that I'm not horsing around anymore. The Bank is back and he's back with a vengeance. I will have no mercy for anybody that steps foot between those ropes. That's my ring, this is my company and this time I will work my way to the top to capture the richest prize in this business. I don't care about championships from my past, I just want to be #1 here in the sVo!"

Howard sits there, both Burns and Jeeves begin to clap.

Burns: "Excellent!"

Jeeves: "Just beautiful."

Thompson shakes his head then begins to stand up.

Howard: "So, can we go now? I'd like to get some rest and do some thinking on my own, ya know?"

Burns stands up followed by Jeeves. All three men exit the cafe and out to their limousine. Burns gets around to the front side and gets behind the wheel. Jeeves goes and watches Howard's back as he gets inside the back. Eventually, he would too get inside and the limo would take off down the road for his hotel.

Jeeves: "So, what's on your mind?"

Howard is sitting there in his seat not moving a inch, his head turns to Jeeves and he takes a few moments to gain his thoughts inside his mind before expressing them.

Howard: "Words can't describe on how bad I want this. How bad I want to beat Johnny All-Star this Sunday. I'm willing to do whatever it takes, at any costs. What I don't understand, is what Christopher St. James wants to do with me..."

Howard stares out his window, thoughts running a million miles a minute in his head.

Jeeves: "Don't worry about that, if anything he was probably just picking up pointers."

Howard smirks.

Howard: "Yeah, something like that. As if I didn't know..."

Minutes later and the limo pulls into the hotel parking lot. Howard jumps out and says his goodbyes to both Burns and Jeeves as he heads up the steps to his room. When he arrives out front of the door though, he takes notice of someone already being inside. Howard now slowly steps through the door and on his bed is a man who is looking back at Thompson.

Howard: "Not even my co-workers and friends know about this..."

???: "Don't worry, we'll fill them in soon enough. Now let's talk plans for Showdown..."

Just then, Howard sits next to this mysterious male person about this Sunday's show. Why though? And who is he talking with? Either way, he faces Johnny All-Star one on one on Showdown #36. The only question left though, is who's going to win? And who is the true Star of sVo?

...the end
