The Last Cowardsmith

[TLBS Matteo]

New York, 23rd May, h.8.00 am


A smartly dressed man walks into a newsstand

???: Ciao francè

F: Oh guarda chi c'è. Come va con la nuova vita? Il lavoro?

???: Beh non ci si può lamentare. Devo solo abituarmi alla nuova vita d'ufficio.

F: Che ti do? Il solito?

???: sì, sì france. Il solito, grazie.

While the discussion is taking place, a boy approaches the newsstand.

C: Hi, sir. Is there the ocw magazine with everett slippers as a gift? I heard on tv it was available.

F: Sure! Is Tony your favorite?

C: Not. My favorite is "EL PRIMERO". Parca! But I love these slippers


While he is waiting to receive his magazine, the boy takes a look at the stranger next to him.

C: Hey wait a moment. These tattoos. I know who you are!

???: You should be a smart kid then..


The stranger, after an annoyed look at the boy, turns back to his friend behind the counter

???: Francesco, passami tutto al volo, che almeno vado a lavoro.

C: You are the Last Blacksmith!

???: You wrong...

C: I'm not! What are you going to answer to the Kassidy Challenge?

Matteo: I don't... wait what?

The boy takes the magazine, and opens it on page 7. "Kassidy Hayes challenges the disappeared Blacksmith for a match at Wrestlution 16"

Matteo frowns

Matteo: You son of a b....

C: So what are you going to do? You won't run away again will you?


In the meantime, the boy's father also enters the newsstand

D: why are you taking so long?

C: DAD! LOOK! THERE IS THE LAST BLACKSMITH!

D: The coward?

C: YES!

Matteo looks at his friend Francesco:

B: Fai una cosa, tieniti tutto. Passo più tardi....

D: Hey COWARDSMITH. If you just try to accept the challenge, Kassidy will destroy you. Like Derek did. Do you know that?


A grimace of suffering appears on Matteo's face.

M: I'm not the Last Blacksmith anymore... and now, if you will, I must go to the office.

F:Mi dispiace mattè...

M:Fa niente. Fa niente.

C & D: "ACCENDI!!! BYE BYE COWARDSMITH"

M: you can go fuck yourself
