Withstanding...

The scene opens on location at a weathered playground. From the scenery of rolling hills and tall swaying grass, it is quite evident that this playground is in the middle of nowhere, far out in the country. There are no children at play here....the slide is quite and the swings are undisturbed.
*crunch* *crunch* *crunch*
A man in blue jean shorts and a leather jacket slowly approaches through the gravel of the playground area. He seats himself on a swing, and relaxes, gazing up at the sky in apparent thought. Kidman laughs at himself softly, as the wind blows his hair backwards. As he thinks, he begins to speak aloud.
Kidman: "They have come at me with everything. It has been what, three weeks now...three weaks of beatings, embarassment, and lost matches. But I am still standing...I am still walking...I am still breathing. It seems that they have failed to do what they have promised the world they were going to..."
"Undertaker, you wished to destroy me at the PPV, but somehow...someway...I managed to slip through your fingers and escape. Have you lost what you once had? Never before did you let mistakes like this happen. When I was with you, you were quick to drive the stake into any opposition's hearts, without any failings."
"But Taker, I survived you and your Fatal Army's offensive flury. And you, more than anyone else, should know that with ever attack, there is always a more devestating counter attack. I just hope for your sake that you have prepared yourself for a counteroffensive that will prove doubly destructive compared to any you have ever known."
"You have had your fun, and now it is time I began to participate in this game. I am a one man army, and I will prove fatal to you and all those under your guidance...be ready, Taker...surprises lay around every corner."
"That, my friend...is certain."
Kidman begins to swing...still seemingly deep in thought. The scene fades out.
