[The scene opens in a large opening, with trees outlining the large field. The location is obviously not Las Vegas Vegas but in the background mountains can be seen. There is a man lying on the ground behind two sandbags and a large rifle. He is peering the through the scope and is speaking softly to himself. As the camera gets closer, the man comes into focus and the camera is able to identify him as the one call Bloodhound. The camera gets in closer to hear what he is whispering to himself.]
Bloodhound: Control your breathing before you squeeze, control your breathing, two seconds in, one second out. Remain calm, keep your senses keen to your environment, but always control your breathing.
[Bloodhound stops speaking and begins to adjust a knob on the scope without taking his eyes off his target. He continues to readjust as the camera pans down range to see a glimpse of what Bloodhound’s target is. About 500 meters away, the camera zooms in on a small green silhouette upright behind a mound of dirt. The camera spots two more targets behind the first but even farther apart, one at approximately 800 meters and one at 1000 meters. Bloodhound begins to speak softly, again.]
Bloodhound: Remember to squeeze not pull; you must be fluid with the rifle. You must squeeze to ensure that you control the rifle, that you never lose sight of your target. Control your breathing; two seconds in; one second out. Locate you target from left to right to keep your rhythm.
[Bloodhound again adjusts his scope, trying to zero in on his target and account for all the environmental variables. After a few seconds, he stops adjusting his scope and places his left arm underneath his chest. With his right hand, his clicks a switch on the side of the rifle, to make the weapon hot and then places his right index finger into the trigger well.]
Bloodhound: But most important, remember to aim high as the bullet will drop the farther it travels. The wind is accounted for, the distance is accounted for, the position of the target is accounted for. All that is left is to squeeze.
[Bloodhound begins to control his breathing, slowly inhaling and exhaling in a control rhythmic pattern. He takes aim at his target, but waits to fire. Then suddenly, Bloodhound holds his breath, steadying his senses. He begins to slowly squeeze the trigger until a loud CRACK!!! echoes into the air. The rifle recoils, slightly disorienting the camera. After reacting the loud noise the camera begins to scroll back down range. At first glimpse, the 600 meter target is still standing. The camera focuses on the target for a few seconds before moving onto the 800 meter target, which is still standing. Finally, the camera scrolls to the area where the 1000 meter target should be, but there is no target. The camera scans the area and catches a quick glimpse of a portion of the green silhouette protruding from the side of the mound, confirming that the target is down.]
Bloodhound: Always go for the hardest target first, the one that is most likely to get away as the adjustments for the closer targets have already been made and can be quickly taken out in a moments notice.
[Bloodhound pulls the charging handle back, discharging the spent shell and loading another round into the breach. As quickly as the rifle is reloaded, another loud CRACK!! bursts into the air. But before the camera can scroll down range, Bloodhound has quickly pulled the charging handle back and loaded another round. And then CRACK!!, another round is sent down range. Bloodhound pulls the charging handle back but does not release forward, indicating that he is finished shooting. The camera pauses and turns down range to find that both the 800 and 600 meter are no longer standing.]
Bloodhound: And just like that, all three targets are done and come 10 days from now the result will be the same. Now, the location will be different, and the targets will not be patiently waiting for me, but the fundamental basics will still be the same.
[Bloodhound stands ups and grabs the rifle. He presses the magazine release and pulls out the empty cartridge, sliding it into one of his cargo pockets. He collapses the bi pod and places a cover over each end of the scope. He then begins to move down range.]
Bloodhound: Study your surroundings, control your breathing, master your senses, not matter if you are in the ring or if you are on the range. And my three opponents next week, well you will just be among the long list of former targets after everything the smoke settles and I am left standing in the ring victorious. Pity that you never real stood a chance to begin with, but I will pick you apart, weakness by weakness before you ever know what hit you.
[Bloodhound reaches the 600 meter target and picks up the green silhouette. In the center of the target is a small, 6 inch diameter circle, with a hole in the middle of that circle.]
Bloodhound: You see, I never miss what I am aiming for. When I have you in my cross-hairs, there is no escape. You can run, you can hide but in the end, no matter hard you fight the ending will be the same. But what I am really interested in is whether any one of you will be able to provide me the challenge that I crave, the opponent worthy of my time and effort.
[Bloodhound makes it to the 800 meter target, again with a 6 inch diameter circle in the middle, again with another hole in the middle of it.]
Bloodhound: I have been gathering information on each of you. A quiet reserve little man with a short fuse, a high flyer, risk taker, and a delicate little Soviet. And I have been studying each of your weakness as well, how to pick you apart, you to break you down until you no longer have the will to fight
[Bloodhound makes it to the last target, finding the results to be the same except the bullet hole is partially touching the outer line of the 6 inch circle. Bloodhound looks at the shot, and then tosses it aside and begins marching back to where he was shooting from.]
Bloodhound: But enough talking for now. It due time I will make my debut in the ring and demonstrate to the higher ups why I belong. And after my hand is raised in victory, after I have left all three of you in the ring, broken and defeated, I will put the rest of the MPW roster on my target list until I can find that one opponent who can truly provide me that great challenge I desire.
[With that the camera stops and as Bloodhound walks off; slowly the camera fades to black]
