Josh Konnely walks the streets of Bridgeport, Connecticut alone. It is a cold December night in New England. For awhile he is silent, preoccupied in his own thoughts.

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.

At last Konnely speaks, and his voice is soft and deep.

”Ataxia. What is Ataxia? To be honest, I didn't even really know until today. Ataxia is a neurological disorder which causes a 'gross lack of coordination of muscle movements.' In layman's terms, Ataxia is a brain dysfunction which causes a loss of muscle control and coordination. The word itself is taken from the Greek meaning 'lack of order.'

Thus the neurological 'disorder' Ataxia gets its name.

But why would a man choose to take this name upon himself? Because a 'lack of order' is also a state of 'chaos?' So the man in the potato sack carries the name Ataxia because it is a little bit less cliché than a wrestler named Chaos? He could be good friends with Havoc, Reaper, and Doom if only they were still around- and if those three could avoid killing each other.

Or is he actually named for the medical condition itself? In that case he should have a stable which consists of wrestlers named CP, Aids, Autism, and Rectal Bleeding. The latter, of course, is the scariest condition of the bunch. Cerebral Palsy and Autism are just a nuisance, and at least with AIDS the hardest part is embracing your own mortality, your own death. Bleeding from the rear, now that's just plain disturbing.”

Josh pauses at the realization that he has strayed far afield from any sensible point as it pertains to Everything Ends and the man they call Ataxia. He shakes his head.

And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD. And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD. And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.

Josh collects his thoughts and begins again.

”Anyway, Ataxia is concerning himself with Kyle Murphy- whom he says ran away from him. Murphy is a self-serving egomaniac. Of course he dumped Hayes like yesterday's garbage. He said it himself: he thinks you, Roman, and Hayes are all beneath him. Kyle Murphy enacted the “running away from a bear” approach. He didn't have to outrun the Axis to survive; he just had to trip Hayes and leave the Indian guy to get munched on.”

And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout. So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp. And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD. And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the reward came after the ark of the LORD, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

“But Ataxia, Kyle Murphy is the last thing you need to be worried about. Here is thing: you have something I want. Although I am a two-time SFT Champion and the longest reigning National Champion ever, that Hybrid Title is something which has interested me from its first day of existence.

See, I have been training since late May in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu with Joao Luz BJJ right here in Bridgeport. Even before that I won the SFT World Heavyweight Championship relying heavily on my proficiency in submissions. An MMA/wrestling hybrid championship in SFT? That is the perfect prize for me, as I feel confident in saying that I am the best submission grappler in Strike Towers today, as well as a dangerous striker. I look forward to proving it once I relieve you of your Hybrid Championship.

Open your eyes, Ataxia, if the neurological disorder your named for will allow it. The foe that stands before you now isn't a legend the likes of Kyle Murphy or Johnny Legend. My fame, slight or not, is not in fact fame but infamy. I inflict pain on people. Whether it was Twilight or Annika Reizeger or Lucretia Black, I left whoever got in my way unable to stand.

Recently I have sought to atone for my past, and eventually I will change that legacy. But the fact remains that I am a former National Guard soldier turned professional wrestler turned BJJ student. My mission is simple: seek out and destroy your foes.

The Messiah Pariah is simply my chosen target. Ataxia, you are one of the most talented and dangerous competitors in Strike Towers, as your own National Championship run proved. So who else would a returning superstar with my reputation seek to destroy? I could target Dirk or Twilight, but what would that really prove?

I have made you my target not out of hatred- although I stand against pretty much everything you stand for- but because you are the top dog around here in my book. Women have been ruling the World Championship roost lately, and the 'King Of Shoot' can shoot himself for all I care. He did my meaningless little record a favor by ending your National Championship run, but he has only emerged as a serious player the last month or so.

On the other hand, you have been laying waste to everything in sight and running rough shod around this place for months. At Everything Ends, your dominance WILL end. Strike Towers will be reminded that the Park City Prophet and Light Knight Josh Konnely is not a man to cross. Believe it. At Everything Ends, Josh will bring your walls crashing down and take your title.”

Josh enters a cemetery and the scene fades to white.

And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city. And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent. And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it. But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD. So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
