“The survival of the fittest is the ageless law of nature, but the fittest are rarely the strong. The fittest are those endowed with the qualifications for adaptation, the ability to accept the inevitable and conform to the unavoidable, to harmonize with existing or changing conditions.”
“The price which society pays for the law of competition, like the price it pays for cheap comforts and luxuries, is great; but the advantages of this law are also greater still than its cost / for it is to this law that we owe our wonderful material development, which brings improved conditions in its train. But, whether the law be benign or not, we must say of it: It is here; we cannot evade it; no substitutes for it have been found; and while the law may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.” - Andrew Carnegie
He is now a completely changed man. Its almost as if he is living life to his fullest, yet still drinking his way to death. It seems that no outside source has been able to teach him the ultimate lesson in life, but he seems to see the lesson in a whole other perspective. Me, Jessie, the WFWF, the whole world has come face to face to show him what good he can do, but nothing. Its been a dog eat dog type of ordeal with him and it just needs to stop on a specific date, but more importantly come to terms with two people, himself and Jolie. It was not his fault for the whole mess and he needs to know it to become a very better man. He did come to terms with his good self and his bad self, but its now all about becoming one with his own soul to complete the goal. He has survived this long, but is he fit enough for the very last game of ultimate chess ?

Northern Ireland is a place of wonders that are out of this world. Its almost like Belfast is behind time, but yet ahead of time on some things. Yes its a place that a lot consider the drinking capital of the world, but yet one must think of all the history that surrounds it. The Titanic leaving Belfast on its first sea trials or the Harland and Wolff shipyard that is still running after nearly a century and then think off all the castles that are still standing after all the the years, but with these few places and there histories, think back to everything that those places has seen. Blood, warfare, famine, and many more challenges that has gone by. Not everything is left standing as the Titanic is miles under the Atlantic ocean or how the shipyards were nearly burned to the ground during the uprisings or how all the castles were once war grounds in the Medieval days. They have all survived through the thickest and thinest to still stand tall, its now time for one more to call the same.
The Belfast pub the the greatest pub in the town. It serves the best pint around, un-like the bar across the street that serves American beers with the fancy lemons stuffed in the bottles neck. This night is special as the owner is on holiday and has rented the bar out to WFWF superstar Yukio Blaze that is setting nicely on a old swivel bar stool swirling around looking at all the objects that catches his eye. The Queen Victoria picture sits nicely on the wall right next to the liquor license and just below the old rifle of World War One, the picture of the bar owners boat on the waterfront with him holding a huge fish. Yukio looks up and sees the lights hanging from the wall that have been up since Christmas and the old chandeliers that are above each of the tables. Yukio closes his eyes while spinning around and then abruptly stops.
Flashback
Yukio as a young boy being being swung from side to side on a old tire that is attached to a very huge and old maple tree. Yukio is laughing and smiling as a man he calls daddy pushing him faster and harder......
I like it here because its brings back the good memories of what one of the best times in my life, un-like very recently. I seem to cannot grasp why I'm still in the WFWF after in a few months will be three years. Three years is a very long time to stay in one place and I'm starting to think if its been that worth while. I got to think of all the good times that I've had, but then those good memories turn to stone as I think of all the darkness that surrounds the other memories. I feel as if I'm starting to lose everything that has ever meant a damn to me, to the forces that are outside my realm. Its tough just to say that because I really dont know why that is. I'm starting to get cabin fever and just loosing it all like a gambler with a bad string of luck.
Yukio places his hands on the bar counter and looks at all the booze that fills the wall. Its everything from straight Irish Whiskey to even some imported Jim Beam all in there respected bottles staring out as if they are taunting Yukio to take each bottle and guzzle them down as if he was in college.
Flashback
Yukio appears to be a teenager in his younger days in a college dorm getting drunk with his friends. Liquor and beer bottles fill the floor, that is until college officials take Yukio out of there and into the deans office. The dean gets aggravated and demands Yukio to get out of there, but it takes numerous security officers to force him out of the building with his backpack and a few items. Yukio starts to walk down a road....
The thirst is so tempting. Its like the Incredible Hulk trying to take over it all, but I just cant let it overcome me. Every time I drink, it makes the pain go away, but it does not help my health or my career. I dont want to be one of those guys to trash a hotel room and is then found dead by just some random person. Life is so much better than anything on this earth. It cannot be bought and cannot be bargained with. Some people cannot realize this and mostly its the man that they call Thunder.
Yukio starts to itch and then cover his beard with his write hand like Plato thinking over one of his greatest philosophies, but then Yukio takes his left hand and places it on his forehead rubbing it with his eyes closed. Tears begin to build up and then starts falling down is cheek like rain falling upon a window glass.
Flashback
Everyone around Yukio is dressed in black and is sobbing while the reverend is getting through with a blessing. A casket is getting ready to be lowered in the ground and before they close the lid, Yukio's dad is the one in the casket. Yukio looks at the casket the whole time, un-phased by it until his mother embraces Yukio and then a single tear falls from Yukio onto his mothers black hat.....
What I wouldnt do to become immortal, but it will never happen. Thunder has the riches, the gold, the money, and everything else to seem immortal, but he isnt. He is not a Greek god striking those who oppose thee, but more of a peasant trying to fool the crowd. You Thunder do not know how it feels to lose every good thing that your life has put before you. I bet you dont even know how its feels to love and then not love again. It hurts worst than anything in the world, but you dont know that because your emotions are not there. You are almost a cyborg just trying to imitate the real thing...
Yukio tries to fight back the tears, but he cannot and just starts to sob worse and worse by every second. There is a shot glass sitting in front of him and he grabs it, tossing it into the shelves of booze, smashing quite a few bottles before getting up from the stool and walking back and forth.
Flashback
December of 2004, when it all happened. Yukio was on a plane getting ready to debut on WFWF television, smiling at a gold locket with the pictures of his niece and his wife. 300 miles the other way was his wife and niece, flipped over in a car on a stretch of road, with another car plowed into it damn near crushing it. One body flung from the car covered with a white sheet from the police and the other body still in the car with her hand hanging out holding a gold bracelet. The police taking picture after picture to finally Yukio landing on the plane, getting off and then told in the airport that a incident has happened. Yukio drops to his knees in the airport screaming and crying on the top of his lungs with everyone looking at him with a gray stare.....
I lost Jessie, I lost Jolie, I lost Dad, and I've recently lost myself in all this mess. I've took the tag team gold from you Thunder when you was with Burton and now you have another piece of gold that I want to get my hands on and thats the WFWF International Title, but the title really means nothing now that I've seen what is more important and that is being the better man in life. I cant take away all the pain that I've endured, but I can inflict some good into one that doesnt see the right. I choose to think this because you cannot. I'm the better man and you know this because you dont have the happiness. You know my history, but you dont have the history. Its all about the good versus the evil, winners and losers, but its also about Survival Of The Fittest. I've survived it all to come here to face you for the title and I'm not going to give up just that easy. That title you have has eluded be and I'm going to get it the easy way and the hard way. Its almost like my last chance at redemption and its because of this situation.
Yukio stops pacing and then sits at one of the booths to calm his nerves down. Yukio takes a a deep sniff to clear his nostrils and then notices a pen and paper setting before him. Yukio laughs, but then starts to write on this paper.
Flashback
Superbrawl 3, Yukio made his pay-per-view debut and shocked the crowd by winning a spot at the then X-Rated Title. From that night on, he became the Unknown Factor and won the crowd over. Survival Of The Fittest 2005, became the night he forever etched his name is stone by being able to gain the respect from CBT, Josh, and the whole WFWF roster. He put on the greatest match in his career, but he did not win the title, but he won something much, much better. Between Scars and Stripes and Superbrawl 4, he engaged a bitter war against Drakz and Kyzer to see who is better. He lost nearly every match that they put him up against, including the National Title by getting pinned by Meg, but after that, both Drakz and Kyzer left making Yukio standing tall. From that night on, Yukio started his chance at the big time, winning match after match and then becoming the very first man to ever win the WFWF Tag Team Titles by himself.....
Yukio stops writing on the paper and looks over at what he wrote.[/center]
The Greatest Times In My Life
1. Getting married
2. Help raising Jolie
3. Becoming a Wrestler
4. Gaining Respected from a huge community
5. Finally making it big
6. Getting a Championship
7. Making Things Right
8. Saying I'm Sorry For It All
9. Overcome It All
10. Making Peace With It All. No more evil, no more vices, just the only side that counts
Yukio smiles, but continues to write on the notepad as the church bells rights in the background and the sun begins to rise in the eastern sky to then reflect through the multi colored windows to form prisms all throughout the pub. Yukio looks around and starts to laugh at it all as if its a sign from someone. Yukio finishes writing and then gets up. Yukio walks to the door, opens it and then leaves walking down the street towards a new damn. Yukio is humming a sound as he waves up to the sky smiling.
[/b]Flashback
Back at the pub from where Yukio was writing on the notepad. It appears that Yukio has left a note for the very next person to see it. The letter is almost like a send off, but it does make sense.

Survival Of The Fittest
It takes a real man to say what he has done wrong and what he has done right. Not many can say this because they are not one with themselves, but I cannot finish just yet. Thunder is the man that is now in front of me flashing what he has and what he cherishes the most, the International Title, but more is on the line than that, that being a shot at the old glory of the WFWF, The WFWF World Title. If I can overcome Thunder, then I get a entry spot in the official Survival Of The Fittest, if not then I walk away with nothing. Dean, Lee, Deville, Child, Reckless, Christian are 6 other guys besides Thunder stepping in my way. I've had histories with just about everyone of these men in my past and some werent on my best days. I've never, ever put a claim on the WFWF Title in my career up until this moment. I've had chances to possibly get a shot at the gold, but I've either lost or was not chosen to get close to it. At Survival Of The Fittest, all this is about to change because its my time to grow into a great somebody because I'm a true believer in what comes around, goes around. I've survived wars, owners, pushes, injuries and all the other good stuff that none of the following men have gone through. I'm fit enough to chose my lifestyle carefully and thats not a easy task. Survival Of The Fittest will be my night no doubt about it. I Bled at Crimson Existence, I was one with a Ascension, but then I became Forever Unscarred, then I Came, I Saw, but did not Conquer, but now I'm going to be the Survival Of The Fittest !!!!!!!
Flash-Forward
Yukio is seen standing on the top rope with him holding a un-identifiable title high in the air with the crowd chanting in unison, Yukio, Yukio. Numerous WFWF superstars are also in the ring shaking hands with him and cheering him one, but one name that sticks out from the others is Wayne McGurk that is telling him that he deserves this. This was his time and day, but later down the road is Yukio Blaze getting inducted in the WFWF Hall Of Fame with another amazing reaction, to Yukio finally retiring from the WFWF with full honors, living out one of the greatest stories within the WFWF. Yukio is then seen later on in his years training new batches of people in the WFWF, to finally retiring. Yukio as a old man telling his past stories to other people, but most importantly to his future grand daughters and sons........
He has finally realized why he is what he is and had decided to go on the right path. He has put it all on the line before and this time is no different. Its weird in a sense that it took him this long to decide what is right and what is wrong. He has survived it all and what is just one more time. You know, he is the fittest of all.
“Nature abhors a hero. For one thing, he violates the law of conservation of energy. For another, how can it be the survival of the fittest when the fittest keeps putting himself in situations where he is most likely to be creamed?” - Solomon Short
“Evolution is the law of policies: Darwin said it, Socrates endorsed it, Cuvier proved it and established it for all time in his paper on ''The Survival of the Fittest.'' These are illustrious names, this is a mighty doctrine: nothing can ever remove it from its firm base, nothing dissolve it, but evolution.” - Mark Twain
