Back from commercial;
A closeup on Carpenter's mask, now streaked with blood.
Carpenter: I had almost forgotten about these two. They almost got away with it, didn't they.
Metatron: *off camera* I do so find Last Rites tedious. I almost pray that they're going to make it. Almost.
The camera pans back slowly, showing that Carpenter is holding on to the black steel bat, the end lit on fire. Going back farther, Phoenix is standing, gloved hands pressed against a wall, head bowed.
Carpenter turns his head to look at his brother. He pats him on the back.
Carpenter: Nice professional work. You ushered them on to a better place. Let's go and preach to the masses, shall we?
Phoenix breaths a troubled sigh, pushes off from the wall, and walks away. On the wall where his hands were are bloody handprints.
Carpenter walks after him, followed by the Metatron. The Metatron stops, turns, and faces past the camera. He signs the cross, bowing his head.
Metatron: Insofar as I may be heard by anything, which may or may not care what I say, I ask, if it matters, that you be forgiven for anything you may have done or failed to do which requires forgiveness.
The Metatron turns and walks away as the camera pans to the right, into an open doorway. Lying within, bloody and unmoving, are the broken froms of Soulfly and Salazar Tyrenus!!
Tito: Did the Church just destroy Soulfly and Salazar?
Johnny: That's sure what it looks like Tito! Gotta ask yourself why though. Neither man was any sort of threat to them. I don't even think they were paying attention to the Church. Well, not until now, after all.
Tito: This is exactly the kind of depravity Phoenix always fought against. To see him involved in this horrendous assault sickens me.
The camera jostles, falling back, as Carpenter steps back into the frame.
Carpenter: Hey Kid. Catch this.
He sparks up a zippo and throws it past the bodies onto a pile of papers. They light up as Carpenter closes the door, chuckling.
Cameraman: What's that smell?
Carpenter: Oh, nothing.
Carpenter walks away, whistling. As he gets to a corner, we see a can of kerosine in his hand! The camara turns back to the office as flames leap up, busting out the window! Suddenly the camera goes dead...
Tito: OH GOD THE HUMANITY!!
Johnny: He's been dying to do that since McFilthy!
Tito: Those were two human beings in there! How could he do that?? What's wrong with that man?
Johnny: Do you have about a month? Myabe you should try the easier question. What ISN'T wrong with that man.
Tito: I- I don't, I don't know what to say Johnny. I only hope someone got back there in time.
Johnny: I'm not so sure I agree. Soulfly was a jackass, and Salazar, man was he annoying.
Yuri Testkov: THE MAIN EVENT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL AND IS A TRIPLE THREAT LUMBERJACK MATCH~!
Tito: It appears, ladies and gentelmen, that the show must go on.
Johnny: A human barbeque never stopped us before Tito. Why start now?
Yuri Testkov: INTRODUCING FIRST, THE LUMBERJACKS~!
The Southgate Foundation make their way out first, looking as if they were nearly out of the building before the match. The Devine Comedy follows them, with Benedikt Krauss following Dark Schnitzel and scowling. Two unknown faces follow them before "Meaning of Life" kicks over, marching out Aello, the Bodyguard, and Lady Hawke. As the groups set themselves around the ring, "Raining Blood" hits and Carpenter slips out of the curtain to a chorus of hate, his mask in place and wearing his brass knuckles. The Bodyguard places a hand on both Aello and Lady Hawke's shoulders, reminding them to stay put.
Tito: Yuri looks ready to announce the entrants-
"Sweet Emotion" hits and T.H. Power walks out on stage, followed by Dr. Cliff Hawke, Mike Oates and a few of Oates? security team. The crowd murmurs, wondering what?s about to happen.
T.H. Power: Before we get this party underway there?s something that has to be done.
A few in the audience heckle and Carpenter yells something that can?t be picked up on the mic.
T.H. Power: Don?t worry, Carpenter. This isn?t about you. Turns out there's a guardian angel hovering about. This is about someone keeping something from me that I should have been informed about before now.
Tito: I wonder what it is?
Johnny: I?m hoping that it?s gotten somebody in trouble. Someone that sits at this table. With a name that rhymes with 'Tito'.
Power looks at the lumberjacks.
T.H.Power: AELLO, you are NOT lumberjacking! I want you away from ringside NOW.
Most of the wrestlers look from Power to Aello trying to figure out what?s going on as she shakes her head, glaring at the stage.
T.H. Power: Cliff just told me something very interesting. Would you like me to make it public?
Lady Hawke moves toward Aello, while whistling.
Aello: *yelling, barely heard without a mic* You wouldn?t dare!
T.H. Power: Oh, I certainly would. Cliff tells me he?s declared you medically unfit to wrestle. Therefore you are on medical leave until you have medical clearance. Mike, get her out of there.
Power moves to leave, but unexpectedly turns back as Mike and his crew move down the ramp after Aello. The Bodyguard takes Aello?s arm, but she pulls away yelling at Power.
T.H. Power: Since Aello?s out, I guess that means she needs someone to fill in for her tonight and Skye needs a new tag partner. Luckily there?s already someone here who can fill both those spots.
The girls give Power a puzzled look.
T.H. Power: The new Birds of Prey, Lady Hawke and? Trine!
Johnny: Who the hell is Trine?
The crowd has a mixed reaction at the unexpected announcement and look around for this ?Trine? to appear, but there is no music and no one shows. LH turns to look at the Bodyguard, who takes on a smug appearance. Aello viciously attacks him, pulled back by Hawke and Mike. Hawke whistles furiously, flying a finger at the Bodyguard. Oates and his men pull Aello away, each having to take a limb to make any progress.
Tito: No one has come out and Aello just attacked her own bodyguard!
Johnny: Hawke apparently doesn?t like the situation either and she?s in the bodyguard?s masked face! Why would she- That?s it! He?s Trine! Ha! This should be good. Section 8 has lost another bird!
T.H. Power: Well? What are you waiting for? Get this match going!
The bell rings as Mike?s security team reaches Power with Aello. They let her go and Power grabs her arm and drags her backstage with him as she verbally attacks both him and Cliff.
The stage light up orange as the opening chords of Flaw?s ?Final Cry? blast over the speakers, Tobias enters onto the stage causing the fans to explode, the Impulse stands right at the top of the ramp and lowers himself a bit as the music begins to skip.
On the tron the image cuts to Tobias caught in the Rings, his face dripping with blood
Thi-this- this is -
*Tobias? face contorts into a mask of agony and he opens his mouth to scream in pain*
THIS IS OUR FINAL CRY!!
BOOM~!!!
The stage explodes in a shower of sparks as Tobias spreads his arms wide and screams as loud as he can, the crowd roars back in response!
Forging a difference
We summon existance
This distance is not what it seems
Images flash across the screen of Tobias? body flying through the air with a poetic tope, topping off with the one he performed against Salazar with a flaming baseball bat in hand.
Painstaking process
It pulls at our instincts
We're living outside of our means
More images of him hitting various suplexes on a multitude of stars, including Ghalleon, Kid Styles and Lady Hawke
So long, I've hoped
To be strong
Down-sloped
Images of Tobias holding various submissions, including a Boston Crab on Phoenix, a Sharpshooter on Pender and the Blood Riot on Salazar
And the damage will commence
The beginning of the end
And the damage will commence
Tobias makes his way down the ramp, slapping hands with various fans and even hugging some fangirls.
Yuri Testkov: MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING, WEIGHING IN AT TWO HUNDRED FORTY FIVE POUNDS, FROM LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA, TOBIAS BUUUUURRRRDEEEEEENNN!!!
The screen transitions various shots of Tobias bloodied but still using various weapons, chairshots on Sal and Phoenix, baseball batting Crim, and culminating with him spitting fire into Salazar?s face.
All these occurances bring me to life
All that I've sacrificed makes it seem right
Don't underestimate how hard I'll try
Images begin scrolling through him hitting various finishing moves, hitting the Cross Special Brainbuster off the apron on Salazar, nailing Aaron Mc and Phoenix with the Fading Mage and culminating with Tobias jumping off a twenty foot ladder with Jason Taylor on his shoulders and literally putting him THROUGH the mat with the Rubix Cube.
Burden hops up on the apron and turns to the crowd, raising his palms up in the universal gesture of ?Give it to me? and the crowd roars even moreso in response, he pound his hands over his heart and turns back to climb in between the ropes.
This is our final cry!
The image cuts back to Tobias? bloody face slipping into unconsciousness after screaming
Tobias stands dead center of the ring as sparks begin to fall from the ceiling.
THIS IS OUR FINAL CRY~!!!
BOOM~!!!
Orange fireworks explode from all four posts as Tobias raises his arms once more, and the crowd showers the ring in orange streamers, as soon as the last one is thrown he retreats to his corner to await the opening bell.
Tito: Tobias looks ready for this match. He looks like he wants some measure of revenge for last Mass Khaos.
Johnny: Revenge for what? The Church making him look stupid? He should try to be less of an obvious target then. If he pulls that off, he may not end up like Soulfly and Salazar.
The lights go down with smoke filling the stage as the opening chords of "Have A Nice Day" by Bon Jovi inundate the arena. A back light suddenly illuminates through the smoke revealing a large muscular male form. The lights gradually rise and Matt Griffen strides out into view.
Yuri Testkov: COMING TO THE RING, FROM BOWLING GREEN KENTUCKY, STANDING 6 FEET 8 INCHES AND WEIGHING 325 POUNDS, REPRESENTING SECTION 8, MATT, GRRRRRRIIFFENNNN~!
He looks out at the audience, acknowledges the fans along the ramp with a nod of his head and a large grin.
Johnny: Now if you want to talk about a guy out for revenge, it's big Matt Griffen here. Phoenix stole the title at MegaBowl V, and then screwed up his match last show.
Tito: I didn't know you cared about any member of Section 8 Johnny.
Johnny: Well I don't. But I like me some violence.
Matt makes his way to Lady Hawke and Trine, and begins a heated discussion with the two Birds.
"Freak" by Flipp kicks in over the speakers...
{Jack Nicholson}
(Yeah. Wait'll they get a load of me...)
A shot of Carpenter, The Metatron, and Phoenix sitting on the stone throne appears on the 'tron.
GO!
A large circle of fire lights on the right side of the stage.
{Flipp}
I remember my high school teacher
She used to say I was a high school creature
And now my boss, says I am a lost cause
Some things are not what they seem
A throne begins to rise from circle. Phoenix is sitting on it, hands clasped underneath his chin. The Metatron is standing next to the throne, the black steel bat in hand, along with a mic.
{Flipp}
That's why they call me a freak
Yeah I don't wanna be like anybody else
That's why they call me a freak
Yeah I don't wanna be like everybody else
That's why they call me a freak
The tron shows Phoenix standing between Matt Griffen and Tobias Burden, as the throne settles.
{Flipp}
I asked my therapist if there was a cure
For people scared and actin' insecure
They treat me like a virus
They beat me to my knees
They treat me like a social disease
The tron shows Phoenix walking through fire as Phoenix stands, the flames glinting off the TKOW "Fiery" Title around his waist. The "Lord of Fire" robe hangs loosely around him, but he shrugs it off, leeting it lie over the throne, as he steps through the flames to the stage.
{Flipp}
I was always afraid of walking home everyday
Those creeps would beat me up and take my money away
They make me feel like a loser
No matter what I did
I was just your average fucked up kid
Phoenix strides to the center of the stage and begins the walk down the ramp, ignoring the crowds boos, jeers, and words of disgust. His hands clench and unclench, his head shifting underneath the cowl, his muscles tensing and untensing through tattered cloth and leather.
The Metatron: Right now, brothers and sisters, show your respect, your love, your reverance, for the Lord of Fire. He is your TKOW Champion, so he represents each and every one of you. Bow your heads, for Phoenix~!
{Flipp}
That's why they call me a freak
Yeah I don't wanna be like anybody else
That's why they call me a freak
Yeah I don't wanna be like everybody else
That's why they call me a freak
FREAK!
FREAK!
The 'tron shows Phoenix and Matt Griffen going through the mat at MegaBowl V.
FREAK!
The 'tron shows Phoenix stretching out Tobias Burden with The Rings.
FREAK!
The 'tron shows Carpenter punching out Celine Dion.
(There is nothing worse than the sound)
(Of the tears of a clown)
(When there is no one around)
The 'tron shows Phoenix and Carpenter on the stage at MegaBowl V holding the TKOW Title.
Phoenix stops just inside the ropes, unsnaps the title and hands it off to the Metatron as the bell rings.
Tito: Going into this match, Phoenix remains the only undefeated superstar in TKOW, with a perfect record of twenty wins and zero losses, multiple titles held, he's simply an unstoppable machine at this point.
Johnny: The odds aren't on his side, but then again, they aren't against him either. He only has one friend outside the ring right now.
The ref yells at Griffen who gets in a last word at Trine and climbs into the ring the as the ref calls for the bell. Burden and Griffen waste no time, heading straight for Phoenix as Carpenter drops back to the floor. Burden goes for a running yakuza, but Phoenix sees it coming and ducks, coming back up to catch Burden with an X DDT only to be caught afterwards by Griffen with a Toss Bomb! The crowd erupts with shouts and applause.
Tito: Action is what the crowd wants and these men are more than ready to give it to them.
Burden quickly recovers, as does Phoenix, who retaliates by going after Griffen with a series of Palm Heels, which he uses on Burden as well when he goes on the offensive with some forearms.
Tito: Phoenix using his martial arts against Griffen and Burden, keeping them at bay.
Griffen bides his time, stepping in with a right or left as necessary to keep Phoenix busy between the two of them. Finally Phoenix has enough and appears to go for a P-X Stunner to Burden, only to kick him away after the elbow to the face, and swiftly nails Griffen with a Xing Crusher! Burden quickly comes back, taking Phoenix by surprise with a T-bone suplex.
Tito: Burden and Griffen haven?t tried for each other yet at all?
Johnny: They?ll worry about each other later. Both of them want Phoenix more than each other at the moment.
Burden follows with several knee stomps to Phoenix. Griffen gets to his feet and looks like he?s about to attack Burden, but stops, saying something to him, then pulls up Phoenix. Phoenix tries for another Xing Crusher on Griffen, but Burden kills it with a yakuza kick. Griffen follows through with the Bad Habit Drop with Burden springboarding off the ropes with a knee drop to the Champ!
Tito: Phoenix getting double teamed by Griffen and Burden! Who?d have thought those two would ever work together?!
Johnny: There are many wonders in wrestling, Grasshoppah. This is but one.
Phoenix moves to get to his feet, but Griffen hauls him up into a military press and looks around for a minute. Burden grins and points and the big man agrees and tosses the Champ over the ropes? right in front of Lancelot and Dark Schnitzel, who immediately commence stomping him. In the ring Burden takes Griffen down with a White Russian leg sweep. As Griffen climbs back to his feet, Burden assails him with a roaring elbow spinning him back around into the ropes! There is a mixed reaction in the crowd.
The ref tries to keep an eye both inside and out as he starts the count out on Phoenix.
Back on the floor, LH is torn whether or not to help Phoenix. Carpenter has no such compunction and runs past Krauss, nailing DS with a swinging neckbreaker. This allows Phoenix to grab Bob?s leg and hold it. Bob hops and goes for a drop of some sort, but Phoenix shoves him away and rolls toward the barrier and Bob hits the floor. Phoenix puts a hand on the barrier and shakes out the cobwebs as he rises to his feet.
In the ring, Burden goes for a yakuza kick, but Griffen ducks and flapjacks him over ropes into a tangle on the floor with Crim and Trine! On the other side, the ref has hit the 4 count and Phoenix heads for the apron. Bob intercepts and goes for a low blow, but Phoenix hops back, just avoiding it, and NAILS Bob with the Xing Buster! Meanwhile Carpenter and Dark Schnitzel are trading blows with Carp?s laughter accentuating the fight.
Phoenix gets back to his feet on the 7 count and accidentally steps into Krauss. Krauss only smiles and steps back, winking and pursing his lips in a kiss. Phoenix stares at him until he hears the 8 count, then rushes to the apron, rolling under the ropes at 9 to a waiting Griffen. Griffen pulls him up and the two lock into a grapple.
Tito: Back to Griffen and Phoenix with neither really getting an advantage over the other at the moment.
On the outside, Burden has detangled himself, with much effort, from the ?helpful? lumberjacks. The ref has reached a 3 count on him and shoves the two men away and heads for the apron, hopping up onto the top rope, and diving onto the other two, breaking them apart and to the mat! As the three get back to their feet, Phoenix gets Burden with a Judo Flip Toss into a corner. Griffen grabs Phoenix and throws him up for a Samoan Neckbreaker, only on the downfall Phoenix manages to grab Griffen in a headlock and swings his legs forward, falling backward and converting it to a hard DDT, making the mat shake from impact! The crowd boos heavily.
Tito: Phoenix managed to avoid that move by Griffen and turned it to his advantage!
Outside the ring Bob has ganged up with Schnitzel, attacking Carpenter, when suddenly a redheaded woman dressed in a black leather outfit decorated with flames leaps the barrier and hits a Southern Kick (back brain heel kick) to Lancelot, stunning him. She teams up with Carpenter in attacking Schnitzel and driving him back to allow Carpenter some breathing space. As Schnitzel goes after her, she hops the barrier and takes off into the crowd. He pauses and turns back, only to have Lancelot whipped into him by Carpenter, who moves back to his own position in Phoenix?s corner to see what?s going on in the ring.
Johnny: Who in their right mind would be helping Carpenter!?!
Meanwhile Phoenix jumps up and lands a fistdrop to the back of Griffen?s head, driving his face into the mat. Phoenix rolls Griffen over and goes for a pin, but Burden capitalizes, running from the corner, springing off the ropes with cannonball senton. Phoenix rolls out of the way and Burden lands perfectly on Griffen! He goes for the pin, but Phoenix breaks it before he can get the 1 count.
The two get to their feet with Burden going on the offense with some European uppercuts. Once again, Phoenix begins using his Palm Heel attack. Carpenter yells at his brother. He moves to the apron, trying to reach in, but the ref gets in the way, keeping him from it. This affords Phoenix an opportunity and he gets Burden with a hard knuckle throat thrust. Burden immediately grabs for his throat, trying to protect it from another punch. Phoenix launches into a number of curved/side knees, runs, bounces off the ropes, rolls towards his opponent hitting a crooked arm lariat. He immediately drops his leg onto Burden?s head to a chorus of louder boos. He goes for a pin, drawing the ref away from Carpenter.
One?
Two?
KICKOUT!
At the same time, Griffen finally gets to his feet using the ropes, only to get dropped by Carpenter, who reaches in and jerks his feet out from under him! Carp rolls him out under the ropes and takes the big man to the floor with a snap suplex then sits on his chest and starts pummeling his face with his brass knuckles!
Johnny: Matt?s having brass knuckle sandwiches!
Saphron suicide dives onto Carpenter, knocking him off Griffen. Crim runs to help, drawing Lady Hawke?s attention. She notices Matt missing from the ring and can?t see Carpenter either and makes a mad dash past Trine to the other side. Crim pulls Carpenter up and into a pedigree, Saphron scrambles and gets to his feet to help a bleeding Griffen sit up.
Tito: Lady Hawke rushing to defend her man against Carpenter.
Hawke turns the corner in a dash and heads straight for Carpenter, taking him back down with a famouser as he starts to get up. Griffen waves Saphron away and climbs to his feet and back into the ring. Hawke puts Carpenter into an STF, determined not to let it up. Bob makes a run toward them. LH sees him and whistles, but he doesn?t pay her any attention, hitting her with a spinning backfist, and attacking Carpenter again. Crim helps Hawke to her feet. She immediately roundhouse kicks Lancelot, knocking him off Carpenter. She dusts her hands and looks in the ring to check on Matt, afterward taking her time walking back around. As she passes Pender, she punches him hard enough in the gut to double him over. She then rejoins Trine, who only shakes his head.
Tito: Why did Lady Hawke punch Pender?!
Johnny: Maybe because he didn?t help Matt? Who knows?
Griffen re-enters the ring just in time to catch Phoenix with the Claw Crush after a whip by Burden! Just as he starts to stand, Burden nails the big man with the Fading Mage and goes for the pin! The crowd jumps to their feet, counting along...
One...
Two...
Three-
NO! Griffen gets a hand on the ropes!
Tito: Burden almost had the pinfall there!
More fans stand to their feet and erupt with cheers and the camera cuts to the audience showing none other than Kid Styles, wearing a black Dragonball Z T-shirt, with a picture of the dragon on it, which hangs over his white baggy wrestling pants. On the left side of his pants is the word "K.I.D" in purple with green thorns surrounding each letter, on the right side is a purple 8 with green thorns surrounding it. The green thorns also circle on around his pants legs.
Kid is shown crossing over the barrier as the lumberjacks turn to see what is going on. Carpenter roughly pulls the ref out of the ring as Kid slides into the ring before the lumberjacks take notice. He quickly climbs to his feet and Phoenix attempts to clothesline him. Kid ducks the clothesline then turns the same time Phoenix does and kicks him in the balls. Griffen stops brawling with Tobias as he becomes distracted with the sudden arrival of Kid.
Tito: Kid's back!!!
Phoenix doubles over and Kid runs toward the opposite ropes. He shoots off the ropes and launches toward Phoenix, giving him a headscissor DDT. Phoenix flips over onto his back and Kid rolls out of the ring and lands near Section 8. Matt looks to where Kid is and takes a dropkick by Tobias, sending him over the top rope. Tobias turns toward the rising Phoenix, sets him up for the UnPulse and nails it. The ref jumps in the ring as Carpenter freezes, drops down for the cover....
One...
Two...
Three!!!
*DING DING DING*
Yuri Teskov: THE WINNER OF THE MATCH.... TOBIAS BUUUUUUUUUUUUURDEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!
The arena bursts into loud cheers and whistles as Burden realises he's the one in TKOW who has finally beaten Phoenix. He grins from ear to ear and begins to celebrate in the ring. A Burden chant slowly builds in the arena, overtaking the K.I.D. chant that had begun at Kid's arrival.
Tito: Kid just cost Phoenix the match and his winning streak!!
Johnny: I can't believe my eyes. He's.... actually made me proud.
The camera splits to include Kid who is standing with a smile and a proud look on his face. Kid makes his way over toward the ring announcer but stops were Matt Griffen is laying. He grabs Griffen by the arm and helps him to his feet, but Griffen shakes him off, a look of anger on his face. Kid simply pats Matt on the back. Apparently aggravated with his fellow Section 8'er, he starts saying something to Kid, who can't hear him over the noise of the crowd. Lady Hawke hurries around the ring toward Griffen when one of the unfamiliar lumberjacks makes a remark to her that she doesn't care for. She flips off the man in the kilt and moves on.
Carpenter begins yelling at Phoenix who gets up and blindsides Burden and brawls with him! Back on the floor, Kid still apparently can't hear Griffen, but hears Hawke's loud frustrated whistles, turning to look at her, then back to Griffen, giving him a quick one arm hug. Kid hurries to the ring announcer as Griffen throws his arms out in frustration to LH and slips back in the ring to try to stop Phoenix. She follows him.
Kid turns toward the ring, taking the microphone from the announcer.
Kid: In case you haven't figured it out by now, I'm baaaaaack!
He shouts 'K.I.D, K.I.D, K.I.D' chant gains dominance momentarily over the Burden one. Kid smirks, taking in the crowds reaction. In the ring Burden manages to hit Phoenix with some forearms. He steps back and dropkicks Phoenix, driving him back to an awaiting Griffen. A flap jack from the big man and Lady Hawke nails her former friend with a famouser! Carpenter growls and hits Tobias with Judgment!!
Tito: Griffen and Hawke just nailed Phoenix with a Talon Version 2!!!
Carpenter berates Phoenix as he goes for Hawke, but pauses as he sees the rest of the lumberjacks sliding into the ring as well. He stops and jerks Phoenix up as the Metatron tosses "the cross" to Carpenter, who hands the weapon to Phoenix as he takes a ready stance, brass knucks at the ready.
Tito: The Church may have made a SLIGHT miscalculation tonight.
Kid: There's going to be some changes made around this place and those changes starts with...
Turns around and points toward Phoenix, glaring.
Kid: ...You.
The 'K.I.D' chant grows again. Kid pauses for a second, giving them time to die down. The chants die down seconds later, Kid's eyes never leaving the sight of Phoenix.
Kid: This isn't about titles anymore big boy. When you attacked my friends, when you turned your back on those who loved and supported you for so long, you made it personal.
He starts to pace back and forth on the floor outside, running a hand through his now black dyed hair. The camera cuts to Phoenix who is still standing in the same spot, Carpenter going off on him.
Kid: Phoenix, as of right now you and your brother have a new problem on your hands and that problem goes by the name of the K.I.D. I'm back to personally make sure that you or Carpenter never harms another person again and I will do this with or without the help of Section 8.
Griffen yells out something to Kid that he obviously doesn't like.
He stops pacing across the floor and snarls his upper lip, and takes a couple of deep breaths which can be heard over the PA system. The expression on his face the same as it was when the rage in Kid was first revealed during his feud with Duke McFilthy.
Kid: Let me cut right to the chase, you and Carpenter want a fight? You got one.
He flips the mic into the air and it drops to the floor, the sound of "Bring me to life" by Evanescense blasts through the speakers. Kid slowly backs up to the guardrails, sneering, his eyes never leaving Phoenix. Kid crosses over the guard rails and lands amongst the fans then turns and makes his way up through the fans.
Johnny: Hot damn! The brat helped take Phoenix down and pissed off Griffen at the same time! I may reconsider claiming him after all...
The camera cuts back to the ring, where the circle of TKOW wrestlers closes in on the Church. "Final Cry" plays from the speakers as the KhaosTron replays Tobias' UnPulse and pin of the champion. The circle closes in, Phoenix raises the bat and Carpenter cocks back an arm-
Tito: THE CHURCH IS SCREWED! WE'RE OUT OF TIME!!
**Fade to**
