New Amplitude Host Get!

[OrochiGeese]

*Fade in to General Celes' office as we see her doing some OMG paperwork. There is a knock on the door but before she has a chance to respond, the door opens.*

Celes: "It's customary to wait until I invite-"

*Celes stops mid-sentence as she sees that it is OrochiGeese entering through the doorway. Celes smirks*

Celes: "Why even bother knocking?"

OG: "No thanks to Mr. Figaro, I've gotten into the habit of even knocking on broom closets."

*OG smirks back and then takes a seat. He leans back and stretches.*

Celes: "Long day?"

OG: "Yes, I've been training with Figaro and Clyde to get them ready for their next FPN match."

Celes: "It has been a while since YOUR last match too."

OG: "For now, let's just say its taken care of."

Celes: "I...see."

OG: "I'm here now to pass on important news. I have found your next host for Amplitude."

*Celes looks at OG with a curious expression.*

Celes: "I thought we agreed that I would find someone?"

OG: "We did. And have you?"

Celes: "I have a number of candidates, I just ask that you be patient so that we can find the right-"

OG: "Then let me help you out. I know a man who is PERFECT for the job. His name is Drake Yoshida and he is an old and trusted business contact of mine."

Celes: "It seems that, recently, your past has caught up with you."

OG: *Laughs* "Ahh yes. But in THIS case, I am quite happy to use my past to mold the future."

Celes: *smirks* "I take it then that you did not have THIS guy poisoned?"

*OG pauses, but then smirks right back*

OG: "No, not yet. Though if his performance as host is anywhere NEAR that of Figaro's..."

Celes: "So tell me, why do you think Mr. Yoshida is the person for the job? Is he familiar with the OG-Joshi roster? Or professional wrestling in general?"

OG: "I have briefed him on the current happenings of OG-Joshi. And he is well versed in the combat sports. Celes, you know very well that I would not suggest someone under qualified to host one of my shows."

Celes: "Yes, I know that, but I was curious as to his specific qualifications."

OG: "Then if there are no objections, Mr. Yoshida can start as host at the next Amplitude on April 15th."

Celes: "If he has your confidence, I am very willing to give him a try-out role as I gave Figaro."

OG: "A 'try-out' role?"

Celes: "While I trust your instincts, it is still prudent to test his performance before we commit to anything. Is that not a wise strategy?"

OG: *smiles* "No, it is. I think we can agree to that."

Celes: "Good, then-"


*OG goes to stand up but Celes directs him back in his seat with just her expression.*

[OrochiGeese]

(Part 2 of Promo....same setting/time frame, just a different topic so I figured I'd seperate it)


*OG goes to stand up but Celes directs him back in his seat with just her expression.*


Celes: "Mr. Clyde found something..."odd" recently."

OG: "Specifically?"

Celes: "He found a very large expenditure made during the first quarter of 2007."

OG: "Not surprising. One has to spend money to make money. A corporation is no exception to that rule."

Celes: "The expenditure was from you, specifically, but its purpose was not mentioned."

OG: "Ever since Clyde started working here years ago, I gave him the role of ensuring that no one on the inside was trying to cheat Orochi-O's. That was mainly to protect against Holly when she first strayed from us. But since then, his role has just been a matter of secure bookkeeping and my purchases are exempt-"

Celes: "I do not work directly for Orochi-O's, you do not have to explain anything to me. But a purchase of THAT size...Geese, I know something is up. What I don't know is what it is and WHY you are not telling me."

*OG pauses and then leans in to whisper to Celes*

OG: "You are well aware of what happened at the previous Voltage, correct? I only ask that because you, Clyde, or Figaro have not commented about it to me since that night."

Celes: "I am well aware."

*OG waits for a second for a further reaction, gets nothing, and then continues*

OG: "During the show, I was not entirely truthful about something. Namely, that Thunder Strike is as powerless as I made him seem. On the contrary, the reason I have gone to such an extreme degree to control him is because he IS effective at what he does: spying and scheming. But I am not naive and I realize he may have some dangerous remaining tricks up his sleeve."

Celes: "And so?"

OG: "In order to not risk a security breach to my plan, I have told no additional person about it then I have had to in order to execute it. Thunder Strike is an expert in wire tapping, among other ways of breaching supposedly secure communications. As to my lack of disclosure to you, it is because I have complete confidence that you, Clyde, and Figaro will support me as the situation calls for it. But in the meantime, in order for my plan to be accomplished to its fullest, I must insist on keeping it under wraps."

Celes: "This Thunder Strike...he seems, dangerous. Did he react the way you were expecting?"

OG: "That is also confidential, I'm afraid."

*Celes nods her head slowly as OG backs away from whispering distance*

Celes: "Then, if there is nothing else?"

OG: "That is all for now."

*OG goes to stand but Celes does too and holds his shoulder*

Celes: "Whatever you have planned...I ask that you do not again disrupt OG-Joshi. You made me a General of it in order to maintain order and keep it running in the competitive style YOU wanted it to be run in."

OG: "And you have done so in an excellent manner."

Celes: "But I will be prevented from continuing to do so if OG-Joshi is effected by a plan of yours that I do not even know the details or purpose of. What happened at the last Voltage did not disrupt an actual OG-Joshi match, but it shocked and confused everyone backstage. That is because you promised the OG-Joshi wrestlers that Voltage would be theirs, you promised ME that Voltage would be theirs."

OG: "And it will be."

*Celes raises her eyebrows in confusion*

Celes: "Don't you mean it is?"

OG: "I do not misspeak, General."

Celes: "I see..."

OG: *Smiles*: "No, you will see. I promised that 2007 would be the year that Voltage was given to OG-Joshi, and I intend to follow through on that promise. As you said before though, just be patient."

*OG winks at Celes and pats her on the shoulder as he then goes to leave the room. Celes sits back down, stares at the door, and then goes back to her paperwork*
