"Forgive me Father for I have sinned. It has been 11 years and 8 months since my last confession."
Chase Landon sat in confession at the St. Mary Magdalen Parish in Everett, Washington, the city he has called home for the last decade. The church is a short drive away from the arena. Chase didn't know when he'd have another opportunity to go so he scheduled a special session.
Priest, "You may have been away from the church for a while but I'm glad you have come, my son."
Chase, "It's been so long because the last time I confessed was right before my 17th birthday."
Priest, "What happened?"
Chase, "My friend, Chase, and I disappeared on my birthday. It was in all the papers. It was the talk of the town. They speculated everything you could think of but eventually believed we had been kidnapped. I did nothing to dispel that when I returned. I wasn't about to tell them what really happened.
I was spending time with another family and I complained about my parents. I hated my parents. I loved my friend's parents. I badly wanted to be part of his family and leave mine. The Patriarch, Jacques Fairbanks, said he could help me. I was willing to do anything.
I staged our car breaking down in a remote area. Jacques drove by and offered to help us. Chase didn't know I knew Jacques.
Chase looked under the hood of the car and that's when Jacques slammed the hood on top of him. He kept slamming it. Chase fell to the ground. He was bleeding and struggling to breathe. Jacques picked him up and put him in his car. He told me to follow him.
We went to a mechanic. Jacques told the guy he needed help getting rid of something and the mechanic didn't have a problem helping. Jacques was insanely wealthy so he probably paid the guy off.
Jacques said that part of the plan was done and now was the hard part. Jacques paid for surgery so I could look exactly like Chase. I spent a year away from home, having surgery and healing up.
I returned home a year after we disappeared. Everyone thought I was Chase. I would never tell them different. I would never tell them what really happened.
I got sick of being in Danvers after a while and left. Moved here to Washington. I worked for Jacques and he paid for my wrestling training. Wrestling was something Chase and I always wanted to do and now I'm living our dream.
I caught a big break by going to WFWF in 2013. I brought along a friend, my pet rat Emile. I was in a ladder match in my first big event. It was something special. And I've been tag team champion.
But I have not been a good wrestler. I've only won 3 matches, kinda. I've been on teams that won. I've never won a match for myself or my team.
I've been quite distracted lately as well."
Priest, "By what?"
Chase, "Detective Bernard Faber found out the truth. He said he wanted to help me. The others said they wanted to help me too and that's how I ended up in a mental institution like my mother. I, of course, was able to escape. Faber wanted to help or so he claimed. He wanted to put me back in the hospital or in jail. I couldn't let that happen so he had to be dealt with."
Priest, "Dealt with?"
Chase, "Faber is with God now. He's dead and buried. I kept his badge and that's what's been a distraction. I worry about it. I worry about being caught. My tag partner keeps saying it's a rock and not a badge. I fear something is wrong with him. I'm worried about that as well."
The Priest was taken aback by what Chase had told him. He has heard a lot in his 46 years at the church but nothing compares to what he just heard.
Priest, "That's a lot of sin and secrets to carry around."
Chase, "What? I wasn't confessing to any of that. You asked why I hadn't been to confession in a long time and that's why. I'm not here to confess about any of that. I don't feel bad about any of that."
Priest, "Then what are you here to confess?"
Chase, "What Jayson Garrett and I do to Kokaine Konspiracy will be not only a crime against man but against God and I'm here to confess we will stop at nothing to get our titles back. I may have been distracted but I will not let that get in the way this time. We will be the tag champions again.
I am and will be guilty of the seven deadly sins.
I am guilty of the sin of Lust. I have an intense desire. I need the tag titles back.
I am guilty of the sin of Gluttony. I am placing my desires over the well being of others. I want the tag titles and I will hurt KoKaine Konspiracy to get them back.
I am guilty of the sin of Greed. I am placing the tag titles over everything. It is my goal, my desire, to be champion.
I am guilty of the sin of Sloth. I have failed to do what I needed to do. I should have been there for Garrett, been there for the team. I should not have put my focus elsewhere. I should not have gotten distracted and cost the team the tag titles.
I am guilty of the sin of Envy. I desire what someone else has. I want the tag titles back.
I am guilty of the sin of Pride. I am very proud of my team. Garrett and I are the best team in the WFWF.
And soon I will be guilty of Wrath.
Kokaine Konspiracy has never dealt with us when we've been 100% focused, determined, vengeful and pissed. We will be getting our titles back by any means necessary. We'll fight dirty if we have to. We'll use everything including the kitchen sink because the titles are ours. If I had not been distracted we never would have lost. Kokaine Konspiracy has never truly beaten us. They haven't beaten us when we've been at our best.
We are willing to sacrifice ourselves to get our titles back. We will put our bodies through hell. Pardon the expression, Father. We will destroy ourselves to destroy them. Anything that it takes to make sure we are the champions again, we will do it. Do not underestimate us. Do not think I will be distracted again. I will not let Jayson Garrett down. We are focused on this goal. We will be tag champions again. With this determination we cannot and will not lose. Father, forgive me for what we will unleash upon Kokaine Konspiracy.
In Luke 23:34, Jesus said "Father, forgive them for they do not know what they are doing." But we know what we are doing. We are getting our tag titles back. I seek forgiveness because I know what we will do to them. May God have mercy on their souls.
This is my Act of Contrition.
Oh my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell. But most of all because I have offended you, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance and to amend my life. Amen."
Priest, "Son, while you have been confessing God has spoken to me. He tells me you have come in here and lied."
Chase was appalled. "I never lied."
Priest, "You may not believe you are lying but what you have said is not the truth."
Chase, "Everything I said I was going to do to my opponents is the truth."
Priest, "He was not talking about that. He was talking about your reasons for not coming to confession in nearly 12 years."
Chase, "All of that was the truth."
Priest, "But it wasn't, my son."
Chase was incredulous. "Then what is the truth?"
Priest, "You actually were abducted on your 17th birthday. Not by Jacques because he's not even a real person. "
Chase, "Of course he is."
Priest, "My son, please do not interrupt.
You were abducted and you returned a year later. You managed to survive while your friend, Victor, did not. You see you are really Chase Landon. You were never Victor. You didn't have surgery to become Chase because you were always Chase. You have concocted this in your mind because of the pain of being abducted and losing your friend. You couldn't believe that Victor was actually gone. You wanted to believe he was and as long as you said you were actually him then Victor could still be alive. You said Chase was dead because you lost yourself on that day.
They did catch the man who abducted you and killed Victor. He's in prison for the rest of his life. Bernard Faber will never see the outside world again.
You attributed the name Bernard Faber to the detective that never existed because he was the man that abducted you and killed your friend. Your making up a detective with that name and then killing him was your brain's way of trying to cope with this. Of trying to put you in control and get revenge for your friend and yourself. You never killed anyone, Chase. The badge actually is a rock. Jayson Garrett is telling you the truth."
Chase, "How can a man of God lie like that? Why would you lie like that? Is someone paying you to say those things? Are you working with the police to get inside my head and make me seem crazy? I will not fall for it. You are a liar. Jayson Garrett is a liar. You're all god damn liars and I will not put up with this anymore."
Chase stormed out of the confessional and out of the church. Once he got outside he pulled a cellphone from his pocket and dialed a number. The person picked up.
Chase, "Frame, we've got to talk."
