My Dearest DJ;

It was merely weeks ago when I made my debut here in the sanctioned Violence organisation. It was at that time that I drove my dagger into the face of the Beautiful One. I made an impact. I stole his innocence--what little he had left.

And now, I find myself wondering. What has happened here? I have nothing to show for my many battles. Victories or defeats, it doesn't matter. As I said when I first came here, it isn't about glory. It's about grabbing the sVo by the throat and slowly strangling the life out of it. Taming it, turning it into my own personal play thing.

But something happened Deej. Didn't it?

Somewhere along the journey, people stopped fearing me. People just chalked it up to being flamboyant. To being one with a taste for the dramatics.

No more.

No more will I be snickered at behind my back.
No more will I be the butt of anyone's joke.

Nero will be feared once again.

Starting this week, I will reclaim my throne. Win or loss, I will make an impact this week, one which will prove that I am to be feared.

That I am vicious.
That I am sinister.
That I am malicious and ill-tempered.
That I am vile enough to take the life of an elderly person all for shits and giggles.

Come hell or high water, I will make an impact.

But you don't really care about that, do you DJ?

Do you honestly care about my mindset heading into our bout? I don't even care about my mindset.

I don't care what I will do to you. As I said, beating you is not atop my agenda.

What makes a victory anyway? Is it pinning your opponent? Making them submit? Or is a good old-fashioned mind fuck a real sign of victory?

Is a real victory achieved when you've completely destroyed a man? When you've caused them so much grief, so much pain, tortured them to the point of no return... they take a dagger to their throat?

You look down in their eyes. You try and stop the bleeding, but they look at you and gargle to you through their expelling life force: "Too late! This is fidelity!"

I look into their eyes, and I see a truly beaten man. A broken man. A man who's come to the end of their rope and can't possibly go on. Too me, this is the sign of the ultimate triumph. When you might try to stop the bleeding, I might try to press the dagger in deeper. To help them end their miserable existence just a bit sooner.

Does that make me evil?
Does that make me a murderer?

Or would I be the ultimate sympathizer? Would I have the most empathy to give, because I'm helping them ease their pain?

Maybe it's both.

Maybe my tortured soul has brought me to a point where I want to see life and death, destruction and revitalization?

I'm not just homo-erotica and bits of Roman mythology.
I'm a man just as you.

However, where our similarities end, our differences begin.

While I may not promise victory, I do promise to make a statement.

You will know who I am.
What I am.
Why I am.

I may not jam a dagger into your torso, or hang you by your intestines... but I will prove my point.

The sVo is still mine for the taking.

Friends.
Enemies.

It doesn't matter anymore.

I am calling out into the night, shouting into the wind.
"Gladiators! Assassins! End me now or forever die trying!"

I am calling out into the night, bellowing into the wind.
"Friends! Family! Protectors of my life! Lend me your arms or my blood forever stains your hands!"

I am Nero.
I am your Leper Messiah.

And this weekend... I return to being what I really truly am.
A Man.
A Monster.
A Maniac.

I am Nero.
I am here to play.
