::Corey O'Brian is sitting in a chair in the backroom of DRAGONSUPLEX Dojo, watching a monitor intently, taking notes. Xander Starr walks in, carrying a shopping bag.::
Xander: Got a moment?
Corey: Hold on, gonna swap discs.
::Corey turns off the monitor, then hits the button on a certain device before turning to face Xander::
Corey: What did the doctor say?
Xander: Your insurance approved the dose increase but he wants to make clear that anything higher is going to be too dangerous to take safely. You need a break Corey.
Corey: I can rest when business is concluded.
::Corey presses a button on the device again, and changes out Blu-Rays in a player before pressing play.
Corey: Anyway, the new class is progressing well. Might start running shows out of the Dojo again. Any messages?
Xander: Just that there's a petition for you to run for President.
Corey: Politics was never my forte. War is. Speaking of...
::Corey picks up his phone, then sighs.::
Corey: Voicemail. Forget it, they're going to hear about it anyway...
::Corey hands over the phone to Xander who sets it up for recording.::
Corey: Wingate. I'm the answer. Make the match.
::Corey nods once and Xander shrugs and ends the recording.::
Xander: That's really all you want to say?
Corey: If I need to say more, then Wingate has already been defeated. The only other person I have to say anything to on this front is ThunderStrike.
Xander: And when are you going to try that?
Corey: On his terms. But that's okay. Wingate won't move quick on this. And that's okay too. Eventually he'll see that if he wants to leave enough of UBL to save, he'll have to resort to me.
Xander: You can beat him?
Corey: If you were to ask me that before hand, I would say I would be the heavy favorite. But now? I know I can, 100%.
Xander: ...Why?
Corey: I'll explain later, when he comes. For now... we wait.
