THE TOP OF THE PYRAMID
Not much was known about the relationship between Donovan Street and Charis Kensington. For some, they saw a man that was obsessed with his famous little sister, Kennedy who in the SCW will be a future Hall of famer. That was not always the case with Kennedy, and it was Donovan who at first was ready to instill his brand of punishment for her embarrassing the Street Legacy. When that didn’t work and Donovan ended up on house arrest for over a year, he had a secret he’d been hiding for quite a long time. The question on everyone’s mind was, what exactly. Where did Charis come from, what was her role in all of this?
Only Donovan and Charis knew.
She had a striking resemblance to Kennedy, a very sickening visual for a man that like many saw, would indeed have some sort of obsessive and compulsive fascination with his own sister. Donovan Street was only months removed from House arrest when he signed a deal with EMERGE and since then has been on quite the tear. He also visited Simon Lyman, who invited him over for a steak, that is when Donovan asked Simon to stand up to the plate, tell Kennedy the real man he is so that his sister could see the lie he has been this entire time.
Donovan wanted to cleanse his sister of all her past acquaintances who have continued to pester her throughout her life and career in his eyes but have helped Kennedy become a different woman altogether and mature in the process becoming one of the most revered and cheered superstars of the SCW. All Donovan Street wanted now, was his own success, watching his sisters for years take it all. Trinity and Kennedy Street became household names….
Donovan disappeared into obscurity.
Three Years Ago
Palo Alto, CA.
The beautiful blonde lied face down, she had on jeans, black boots, a matching jacket and t-shirt with long blonde hair hanging down, covering her face and nails polished a matte black. Unconscious after Street chloroformed her thinking she was his sister, Kennedy. He grabbed her limp arms, taking off the jacket, then untying her boots and slipping off her socks. He grabbed her left foot and placed a shackle on her ankle, not knowing that in a few seconds, as he turned her over, he would realize that it was not his sister that he took….
It was the future love of his life.
About an hour had passed, she started to stir, not realizing she was sitting in a fiberglass room Donovan constructed to place Kennedy in for a long time. Her green eyes slowly opened, she turned, eyes widening at the mere presence of Donovan Street….
Charis: “Where… where am I?”
Donovan: “What the fuck were you doing in Kennedy Street’s house?”
Charis: “What… what is this?”
Donovan: “Answer the fucking question, it ain’t that hard to give me an answer. I walk into Kennedy’s home and there you are trying on her shit? Stealing things from her? It doesn’t look very good for you right now, love. So I suggest be truthful, tell me exactly what I want to hear and maybe I will let you breathe a little and drop you off somewhere and let the bums find you.”
Charis was obviously scared, this man’s eyes were cold, his demeaner was one of a persons on a mission to change the life of Kennedy forever. He walked outside the room and grabbed a pair of pliers, entering back in her eyes widened……
Charis: “Please…. Please…. I will tell you anything! Listen, this was all a big mistake and I just want to go home. I love Kennedy Street, she is my idol, my icon, all I ever wanted was to be like her, that is all. Can you please understand where I am coming from with all of this? I just want to go, please, this is all I ask? You will be a kind sir?”
Donovan: “What’s your name?”
Charis: “Charis.”
Donovan: “Charis, what?”
Charis: “Kensington, like the city you were born.”
Donovan chuckles a little….
Donovan: “That’s cute. Let me tell you a little story about me, Charis. I am very overprotective of my sister, there was a reason I was there, to bring her here and make sure that for a very long time, she would be under my watchful eye and that alone would make me a much happier brother, not ever having to leave my sight and make an embarrassment of herself. I love my sister more than anything Charis and under my watchful eye, she would be the woman that I know she could be. I want you to stop for a second and think about what you are about to say next.”
Charis: “I don’t understand…..”
Donovan: “I am going to ask you one more time…. Why were you in my sister’s home?”
Charis: “I…. I love Kennedy and….. WAIT!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?”
Donovan grabs Charis by the ankle, wedging the pliers on one of her toes as she screams…..
Donovan: “TELL ME THE FUCKING TRUTH! TELL ME THE TRUTH OR I SWEAR TO CHRIS I WILL BREAK EVERY TOE ON BOTH OF YOUR BLOODY FEET!?”
Charis: “No! Please…. I am telling you the truth! All I wanted to do was be her! Kennedy is a woman that I look up to and all I wanted was to feel like I was conn3ected, that is it! I swear! Please, don’t hurt me! Don’t hurt me!”
Donovan: “TELL ME THE TRUTH!”
Charis: “I AM!”
He grabs her by the throat after dropping the pliers, ramming the back of her head into the Plexiglass, almost knocking her out. A dazed Charis tries to focus, she can barely stay conscious as Donovan holds her by the neck still….
Donovan: “Why were you in my sister’s house!?”
Charis: “I……. idolize ….. her…….”
Her eyes roll to the back of her head, slumping down. Donovan stares down at her. He slowly sits her up, brushing the blonde hair back, sighing some, he opens her eyes, green like Kennedy’s, her lips, facial features, body type, all the way from head to toe, she was the splitting image of his baby sister. Donovan drops her back on the bench, walking out and slamming the door shut…..
Present Day
Burbank, CA.
A Few Days Ago
He sat in his car and watched her leave the movie studio. Kennedy Street had taken a hiatus from professional wrestling, she wasn’t even on Social Media, after RTG XVI, no one had heard from her or even seen her aside from her closest family and friends. Kennedy was now a Hollywood star, she had movies and shows lined up, it was work after work and loved up, the one person who kept tabs on her was none other than her brother, Donovan.
She walked to her car, security escorting Kennedy. She was wearing red jeans. Open toed black heels, a matching halter top. Her nails were polished a naked color and long blonde hair hung down. She drove away, Donovan followed her, it had been since right before RTG where he talked to her one on one last. He knew that if Kennedy had a bad day, she would go to one part of town and on a good one the other. This time she went home and picked up her daughter, Sonia, the young biological daughter of Damian Angel. Kennedy and Sonia went to La Brea Tar Pits, it was a nice park to walk around and learn history. Donovan took the time himself to get out of his car and take a small walk as well. Kennedy and Sonia held hands, they talked, laughed, seemed to be binding quite well.
He sat down and simply saw his baby sister and Sonia, the girl who at three years old saw Kennedy get thrashed and beaten up by Donovan. It had been that long since he last saw her. Kennedy seemed to be getting a phone call. She stepped to the side, leaving Sonia by herself looking at the Tar Pits. Donovan took his chance, wearing jeans, sneakers and a loose pull over shirt, he stood next to Sonia…
Donovan: “Wonder whatever happened to these mammals like that big bloody, woolly mammoth.”
Sonia: “I might be thirteen years old now but that still doesn’t mean I talk to strangers.”
Donovan: “Oh love, I’m not a stranger, I’m family.”
Sonia’s eyes narrow a little, she tilts her head realizing now who she is talking too….
Sonia: “Donovan?”
Donovan: “Oh come on now love, show me a little more compassion and call me uncle. We ARE family no matter how far left or right, Kennedy has taken this. You’re my niece and I think I deserve a right to see you, don’t you think so?”
Sonia: “Not really, you’re an asshole.”
Donovan: “Did your mum teach you that?”
Sonia: “No, but I have heard it a lot from her. I don’t think that she would appreciate you talking to me and besides, I never forget anything. I remember watching you beat her up, I was three. All I did was cry louder and louder each time you punched her in the face.”
Donovan: “You do remember? Wow, I must say I am tickled impressed. So, I guess that means you hate me too for helping your mum?”
Sonia: “How is that helping her?”
Donovan: “You are too smart for your own good little girl.”
Sonia: “Yeah, I get that a lot.”
Donovan starts to chuckle; he finds Sonia both cute and witty when suddenly….
Kennedy: “Sonia!? Honey get away from him!”
She quickly pulls Sonia closer to her, away from Donovan. He smirks, shaking his head….
Donovan: “Really sis? After our last conversation, I thought that you would have known by now that I am on your bloody side. I like this little girl, she is cute, funny, very witty. I miss my family and would like to see them once again. All I do is for you Kennedy. The past is the past.”
Kennedy: “All you do is for me, Donnie? Please give us whatever it Is you’re shoveling a break honey. You don’t care about family and never cared about it. I don’t care what kind of conversation we had but that doesn’t matter….”
Donovan: “I talked to Simon.”
Kennedy: “Wait…. What?”
Donovan: “Son of a bitch invited me to dinner, that one arm bastard even cooked for me, the meal was good, I can admit that but we had ourselves an interesting conversation and basically told him that he needed to come clean and tell it to your face or else he was lying to you and such a fate it would seem would come true.”
Her green eyes narrow….
Kennedy: “Come clean about what?”
Donovan: “I know you’re in Hollywood but come on, Kennedy, put two and two together and realized that wanker has been lying for a long time. He isn’t the golden knight you drew him up to be Kennedy and I don’t think you’re ready to hear that truth especially in front of the kid.”
Kennedy: “We are done here, Donovan. Come on Sonia….”
As she is leaving, Donovan calls her attention….
Donovan: “Kennedy…..”
Kennedy: “What!?”
Donovan: “Simon was BAE…..”
Her eyes widen as he slowly waves at Sonia and walks off, looking back at an infuriated Kennedy still looking at him as he reached the car, stepped inside, turned it on and drove off. Kennedy stood there as he passed by….
Sonia: “You don’t believe him, right?”
Kennedy: “One thing about my brother honey….. he’s not a liar.”
Sonia: “There is always a first.”
Kennedy: “I won’t argue that but that doesn’t matter, let’s go.”
And all Donovan wanted to do was plant the seeds of doubt. Somehow that is exactly what he did with his little sister. She may not have reacted now…..
Kennedy Street is thinking about it.
Three Years Ago
Palo Alto, CA.
She slowly opened her eyes, sitting up, holding her head in pain. Donovan sat in front of her with a tray of food and some Tylenol. She was startled at first then realized he was trying to give her a good gesture. Charis Kensington couldn’t even look him in the eyes. Donovan smirked and tilted his head….
Donovan: “Take these, eat…. Too, you will feel better.”
Charis: “My head…. Why are you doing this?”
Donovan: “You were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Maybe this was fate, do you believe int hat sorta stuff?”
Charis: “I… I don’t know if I do or not….. why?”
Donovan: “Because that will determine how you feel about the situation you are in now. Now eat….”
Charis eyes narrowed, looking right at Donovan, she didn’t know what her fate would be but it seemed like she was not going anywhere anytime soon…..
And so she was stuck as a prisoner, all because she wanted to be her idol.
Welcome to the world of Kennedy Street.
SCENE FADES
REC:
“The steps are here for what they call the Pyramid. A chance at the top title of this company, to represent it with pride, joy or absolute malice. I think you all know by now that I don’t play well with others, they tend to piss me off and not follow their script or abide by the role given while I am simply a master of my craft. When I look at the landscape of EMERGE, I see a bunch of pretty girls and boys trying to see which one is next wearing the trending accessory. Isn’t that what this is for you tossers? Wearing gold so you may brag behind your short-term memory, but longevity lies in the palm of my hand as I know exactly what to do, who to hurt and when to kill.
That title belongs to me but as I look at my partners, Christian Cannon, never wrestled a day in his life making his auspicious debut against his little girlfriend, Jennifer Helms. Or could it be that magical princess, YUYO who upset the whole tournament to become the SPIRIT Champion. Right now, I don’t mind carrying neither one of the me to the Pyramid. That’s something though, isn’t it, my two partners are fairies and rookies. Then I look at the other side, Team Girl Power. Interesting, I have family in Jennifer Helms, how sweet and succulent. KALI, the woman who we can simply call unorthodox and unpredictable. Finally, Aubrianna Powers, the MVP pf Monarchy, a woman that is tested and endorsed by my sister, Trinity.
Maybe it’s time I take her to school and see just how much Trinity showed her.
It doesn’t matter where we go from here, what matters is how it ends. On Monday Night I have ONE goal and that is to walk into the Pyramid, with or without my partners….
And become the EMERGE Champion.
What a reality we live in mate….
A bloody beautiful reality.”
