(Logan): Hi, thanks for coming. I’ll be happy tae take any questions you might have in a wee minute but first I want tae assure everyone that Ally’s condition is stable. She’ll be spending one more night so the doctors can keep an eye on her and then going home with her parents. They will keep a close eye on her while she comes to terms with everything…. Thanks I’ll take yer questions now.
The reporters seem more shy than usual when dealing with the sensitive topics.
(Reporter 1): Logan, first I’d like to extend my deepest sympathies on the loss of your unborn child…
Logan nods in appreciation, keeping a brave face.
(Reporter 1): But I’d like to ask… We heard you say words of retirement to Ally before …what happened? Will you now be going through with that after her trying to take her own life?
(Logan): No. I will fight. I’ve decided that after what’s happened in the last few days I will continue in the HWA. And I will win the World Championship in honour of ma unborn daughter.
This causes a bit more of a reaction by the press.
(Reporter 2): Daughter? It was never revealed the sex of the child, were you and Ally aware before … Talon… erm..
(Logan): No we weren’t. So no’ revealing the sex of the baby wasnae really a decision we took. And it’s no’ relevant tae this interview…
(Reporter 2): Of course. Sorry. So you say you will be going after Ronnie and his World Title. Given he has beaten you twice now, defending the All Star and World title respectively, Do you feel you are currently able to defeat him?
(Logan): It won’t be easy but I know at my best I can beat anyone. I have a new sense of purpose now, I’ll use the loss of my child to drive me further and as I said… I will win it. I dinnae care it I beat Ronnie, Senester, Eddie or Hans for it. As long as on the way I stop Talon from getting his hands on it.
(Reporter 3): Do you have any words for Talon?!
(Logan): Words for Talon?… The man has taken away my unborn child… Aye I was apprehensive about becoming a father, but who wouldn’t. Who wouldn’t have doubts? That doesn’t mean I am anything other than distraught. The man has now scarred my beautiful girlfriend so much she wants tae end her own life! Talon has taken almost everything from me… Do I have WORDS for Talon?… No… But I have two fists for him… We will meet in that ring, and when we do he better be ready to kill me because I won’t stop until he has nothing left.
(Reporter 1): What about Senester and his part in all this?
Logan scoffs in disgust.
(Logan): What about it? Is anyone truly shocked? I don’t care about him. He’s only guilty by associating with that #### Talon.
(Reporter 4): Logan, moving on. You are facing off against Hans at Havoc. With him being considered a friend of yours, how will you approach this match?
(Logan): Hans is a friend I guess…. But that won’t matter when we step through those ropes. Right now he’s in ma way. If I want tae win the World Championship I have tae be able tae beat Hans.
(Reporter 4): But like Ronnie, Hans is someone else you have never beaten before.
(Logan): Aye cheers mate I know that.
Logan smirks, lightening the mood slightly.
(Logan): Like I said earlier… I’m not just fighting for myself now.
There is a look of confusion around the members of the press which Logan notices. He sighs and sits down on the stairs to the Hospital.
(Logan): This might seem mad tae everyone out there… but call it a hopeless dream or whatever. But in my head I have failed…. I couldn’t save my child, I couldn’t save Ally. So this is my way of some form of redemption on a personal level.
He pauses brushing some hair from his face.
(Logan): I’ll never be able tae change what happened at Blood, Sweat and Tears. Nor will I ever be able tae forget it. Hell, I don’t think I’ll ever be able tae forgive myself…. But I cannae let it end me. I must pull through. This is my inspiration.
Logan gets back to his feet, still talking more to himself than the reporters in front of him.
(Logan): And by achieving what I set out tae do…Maybe I can inspire Ally, show her there is always something worth living for….
He snaps back to reality and looks at the reporters and smiles.
(Logan): Thanks guys, I gotta go now….
Logan looks at his car keys for a moment then pockets them. He turns and jogs back up the steps to the hospital as the scene fades out to black.
