Tokyo Zombie moves along a path in the forest. Snow covers the ground as the wooded area closes in on him along the path.
“The new year will bring promises of rebirth from all of the competitors of Max Japan. All of the fighters will surely promise vengeance for past wrongs. A focus will fall upon this organization like a blanket. New heights will be reached. The downtrodden will rise up. Those that were last will move to first. It is a time of great upheaval and stress. This new tour even gives us a little trinket to hack each other up over. These new resolutions will be put to the test. The only way we think to show our worth is, after all, with putting another man down. So we will all get meaner, and fiercer. We will try to cast off all our old weaknesses and try to prevail in the pursuit of success.
“There is no easy way to do this. I am sure we have all gone back to reassess our careers in the time away. We try to strategize and see what went wrong. We remember who it was that got us into that position and we imagine how we can take that man down now. It will be different this time around, right. We repeat the mantras and say our prayers. We hone our bodies in the gyms and perform drill after drill to fix our mistakes. This will be a time of sacrifice and great gain, isn’t it?
Do you all know that when promises are broken they leave behind the sharpest edges that cut at our hearts? Those are the deepest wounds.”
He turns as the path winds around a corner. It all looks very similar and one would think that he will get lost.
So what will I, Tokyo Zombie, do in 2019. I only glance behind me and see that I must look up. I have risen so far only to fall flat at my attempt for the highest of honors here in Max Japan. So what is it that I need to change? I have tried to think about this and only find that my mind is blank. That is what meditation does to a man after all. After years of practice and thought… After grinding away at the climb with technique and strength… I only know that one thing is needed.
“I do not need to change a thing. In 2019 there will be more of the same from me. I understand the cycle of things better than anyone else here. I once was up and now I am down. Where does a fighter go from there? I can move on and delay the inevitable or I can just shut my mouth and do what I did before. It is only natural for me to rise up to this and any challenge once again. I will see the bodies fall in front of me as I dominate another round of battles. I am more familiar now with all of the competitors and I know their greedy hearts. That is why I advance with a clear mind. I know that my abilities will see me through because I have the utmost faith in myself. Strength is not measured in muscles. It is measured in sheer will. I have the confidence to see this out.
“It is the Year of the Pig. Fortune will shine down on some of you, but do you know how to handle it. I do. That is why this chance can not be wasted. This title will not be either. The proof will be when I hold this new championship once again. It is not because I covet it. It is because I must show you all your folly. I will gain so that you can learn how to act. We are men and warriors. There will be no change only progression. Tokyo Zombie will rule over this federation once again.”
The shot rises up and we see that he is moving in a wide circle again and again
