The shot fades in to the locker room of the former AWF World Champion, Lino, where Alex DuVry is seen, plopping down at a small table where Lino, Melissa Rez, and Kitten Miller are already seated. "Man, how long's it been, Lino? Year and a half since we were on the same team? And then we go and beat William James AND Brandon Dubaine? Damn, we're awesome!" Alex busts out laughing, as Lino gives him a look and a half-hearted nod. "What's wrong, man, we stomped 'em!"
"If I had to guess, it's probably that guy running around calling himself the Emissary."
"Aah, the masked guys, right. Sucks they took your title, but at least they didn't rough you up too much!"
"It's not even that. I've lost titles before, had them stolen from me before, too..."
"Well, what, then?"
"You think they'll be coming back after you?"
"No, I'm pretty sure they have no business with me, now. Their focus is solely on the World Championship."
"How do you know they won't come back after you, though?" Kitten asks.
"I just...I just do."
"How can you know that when we don't even know who the Emissary is?!"
"Because I do!"
With that outburst, the room falls silent. Alex and the two girls are deathly quiet as Lino continues.
"Osiris thinks he knows, too. But that's not his voice, not his movements. And he damn sure never called anyone 'child'."
"Well then, who is it?" Melissa presses. Lino looks down at the table before speaking.
"I...can't tell you." Through this, Alex scratches his temple with one finger, donning an expression akin to a mix of curiosity and confusion the girls look to each other, and the shot fades out...
