The Year of the Vizier Stage 1: The Press Conference

 

“Alrighty! Here is y’alls check. Thanks for coming to Little Lady Grill for dinner tonight. It was a pleasure serving y’all. Have a great night and come back to see us soon.” The two Albatoss brothers sat across from each other at the restaurant located on Yoshee Island with empty plates and cups in front of them, but also full stomachs on a Thursday evening.

 

“So, you mean to tell me that you invited me out to dinner tonight to ask me something that you could’ve easily asked me via a personal communicator text message?” King Elijah asked his older brother Bluu. “C’mon little brother, you know that it’s better to offer a proposition to someone over good food and drinks than it is to do so without.” Bluu responded. “You do have a point. But I can’t go to Fancytropolis with you on your birthday weekend. It’s the same weekend of the second press conference between K.View and Frederick Fly. As the king of the Dual Society I feel that it is important for me to be there. Why don’t you just go with some of your friends?” “Because I don’t know what type of trip I am going to have with my friends. They have been unpredictable lately. Very unstable emotionally. I need to celebrate my birthday with family. I know exactly what I’m going to get from you.”

 

Over the past year, Bluu Albatoss hasn’t been having as much fun with his friends as he did before. In his mind it was all of their fault for the petty arguments and selfish actions that were being displayed amongst them. In reality, Bluu was also a part of the problem.

 

“What about Amberlynn? I can’t leave her at home pregnant while I go out of town and party with you for your birthday. Elijah Maximus is expected to drop and hatch in the next month.” “Exactly, my birthday weekend is in two weeks. That gives you a last party weekend a couple of weeks before your first born son comes into the planet. It also gives Amberlynn a weekend without hearing your whiney voice. But seriously, this is the second of three press conferences between Fly and View and the first one went very well. Let the commissioner of the Vizier Street Fighting League oversee the press conference. It’s time for Vincent to start earning his keep.”

 

King Elijah decided to combine the two street fighting leagues into one named ‘The Vizier Street Fighting League’ after the great response from street fighting fans when he unified the tag team championship belts of the Eastern and Western Society street fighting leagues last year. Vincent the Vehement was named the first commissioner of the league and former Eastern Society Heavyweight Champion Paul Partisan was named the president. Professional street fighting popularity is at an all-time high on the Second Earth.

 

“True. I can also make sure that Mustef is there, with him being the second in command of the Dual Society and all. Alright Bluu, it’s your job to find the resort that we stay in. Friday night to early Sunday morning. That’s it. And we must watch the press conference on the vision tube Saturday afternoon before we go out that evening.” “Thanks bro! I’ve already chosen a resort. How much do I owe you for the meal and drinks tonight?” “You owe the whole check. I’m paying for your birthday trip. And please make sure that you tip 20% or higher. I enjoy this restaurant and plan on coming back to smiles.” “Yes, your majesty. Whatever you say.” Bluu sarcastically said to his younger brother. Now King Elijah just needed to figure out how he was going to ask his wife Amberlynn could he go on the weekend trip with Bluu.

 

“I want to thank everyone who came out today to attend this press conference. I also want to thank the millions of topians watching throughout the planet. I am the proud commissioner of The Vizier Street Fighting League, Vincent the Vehement and I am looking forward to hearing what these two phenomenal athletes have to say this afternoon pertaining to their upcoming match on July 3rd.” Vincent stood behind the golden podium with his chest muscles flexing and his head held high. Mustef was unable to attend the press conference due to a previously scheduled charity event hosted by the wealthy and powerful Potter family. This was the first time in his life that Vincent truly had full control of a major event. King Elijah and Mustef were not there to look over his shoulders and make sure that he leads appropriately. This was his chance to show his excellence as a leader.

 

“Um commissioner not to cut you off but, I sat through a press conference filled with smoke and mirrors a few weeks ago and I refuse to sit through another one today. Let’s get straight to the point. Frederick Fly, you are afraid to fight me one on one in the middle of the ring. You run and hide behind the mandatory steroid tests that you have gotten your buddy President Paul Partisan to approve that requires us to get tested. This requirement has pushed the fight back a couple of months. The couple of months that you need to train some more because you are fat and out of shape from laying around all day with that thing named Rose Sovereign you call a girlfriend.”

 

K.View did not have any respect for Commissioner Vincent. He beat Vincent twice when Vincent was an active professional street fighter. He also was extremely jealous about Frederick Fly and Rose Sovereign’s relationship. His jealousy stemmed from the fact that he and Rose Sovereign dated years ago and Rose Sovereign broke up with him because she felt like she could do better at who she chose to be her significant other.

 

“Hold on a second K.View. We are not going to be unprofessional and disrespectful at this…” As Vincent turned towards K.View and scolded him, Frederick Fly jumped up out of his seat from behind Vincent and tackled K.View as he sat in his chair. Frederick ended up on top of K.View and placed the male Humanoid in a defenseless position. The security at the press conference pulled Frederick Fly off of K.View and attempted to carry him back to the opposite side of the stage. As this was happening, K.View leaped to his feet and tackled Frederick from behind at his waist area. He couldn’t bring Frederick down to the ground because the massive security guards were holding Frederick up. So, K.View proceeded to viciously bite the four inch tail that was located on Frederick’s lower back. Frederick’s entourage saw this happening and became furious. It is a 50,000-dinar fine if a fighter’s entourage engages in any type of physical altercation during a press conference. It was passed the point of caring about fines. Both fighters’ entourage got involved in the violent struggle and the press conference turned into an all-out brawl. Various fans in attendance, reporters, and security guards were injured during the melee.

 

The second press conference between K.View and Frederick Fly became both the most infamous brawl and the worst day in professional street fighting history. King Elijah didn’t see the disaster that happened at the press conference live that day at 2:02 pm on the vision tube that was located in the pent house suite that he and Bluu were staying at that weekend. He was still asleep from the ridiculous night of partying the two had the previous night.
