[mooseheadjack]

(Ecosystem, Tytan, and Matte are sitting around the Tytanium Systanium, watching Glenn Beck on the TV.)

Matte: I have a question. How can Glenn Beck say "I'm not saying Barack Obama hates white people" and then say "He is a racist...he has a problem with white people"?

Tytan: Because Go Fuck Yourself, That's Why.

Matte: That's not even your catchphrase.

Eco: Whatever. We had a damn good night. Despite FuEL's interference, Tytan is still the DDT Iron Man Heavy Metal Champion. I'm still the Onslaught Champion. And we sent a message to FuEL after their little double countout.

Matte: Um...I'm the Onslaught Champion.

Eco: Yeah. That's what I said.

Matte: No. You said "I'm still the Onslaught Champion".

Eco: Right. You're the Onslaught Champion.

Matte: No, you said I. Meaning you.

Eco: Oh. How silly of me. When I said "I", I meant...we. Like, "We're still the Onslaught Champion". It stays with Team TEaM.

Matte: Okay. Can I have the Onslaught Belt now?

(Eco looks at the Onslaught Title Belt, sitting on his shoulder.)

Eco: Sure you can.

Matte: Great, thanks.

(There is a pause.)

Eco: Man, Glenn Beck needs to get a wacky sidekick.

Tytan: Like a stuttering little person.

Matte: You didn't give me the belt.

Eco: What?

Matte: The Onslaught Title.

Eco: I said you could have it. Geez, why are you pushing this?

Matte: ...Can I have it now?

Eco: I said yes!

(Pause.)

Matte: Do...do you want me to get up and take it?

Eco: I'm not sure what the problem here is.

Tytan: Yeah, Matte. You're being kind of weird.

Matte: O...okay.

(Matte gets up and walks over to Eco. He reaches for the Onslaught Belt, when Eco suddenly flips over on his stomach, holding the belt beneath.)

Eco: I'm tired. I think I'm going to lay down now.

Matte: Can...can you move over so I can take the belt?

Eco: You have such a one-track mind! I'm trying to sleep.

(Matte grabs the leather of the belt and starts to slowly pull, but Eco holds it tightly. Matte pulls harder.)

Matte: Will you LET GO OF MY BELT?!?!

(Tytan jumps up and SPEARS Matte. He goes for the cover--1-2-3! Winner and STILL DDT IRON MAN HEAVY METAL CHAMPION....TYTAN!)

Tytan: Don't yell at partners like that! We're supposed to be friends here.

Eco: I agree. Matte, I'm taking your title belt for the night. That will teach you a lesson.

(Eco walks out happily carrying Matte's belt. There is a spring in his step.)

Matte: Sometimes you people frustrate me very much.

[mooseheadjack]

(A caped man starts walking down the ring...)



(The Japanese crowd boos FURIOUSLY. This man is Generalissimo Takada, leader of the MONSTER Army from HUSTLE.)

Takada: Quiet, all of you! I SAID QUIET!

(The crowd ignores him, continuing to jeer.)

Takada (yelling): I DEMAND SILENCE!

(This actually quiets the crowd down a little bit.)

Takada: I am here for one reason... to unleash the most devastating force to have ever fought for my MONSTER army on this worthless wrestling organization!

(The crowd is NOT happy and a new round of boos start.)

Takada: Behold! The dark force of disorder... destroyer of the weak and champion of the MONSTER army... the raw force of destruction personified...

("Navras" by Juno Reactor starts playing.)



(As soon as the piano starts playing, HUGE explosions of blue flame belch from the stage! This man walks THROUGH the flame... )

Russ: BAH GAWD, THAT'S SUPER LARGE EXPLOSIVE ANGER AND RANDOM BLOODY VIOLENCE MAN!

Razz: I thought he was banished from Japan, Russ!

(The crowd EXPLODES in boos as Random Bloody Violence Man SNEERS at everyone. A planted crowd member jumps the barricade and Random Bloody Violence Man SMASHES him in the face with his wrecking ball! The crowd member goes DOWN, blood GUSHING from his now broken nose!)

RBVM (grabbing the mic from Takada): I WILL DESTROY THIS FEDERATION.... STARTING WITH YOUR SO-CALLED HEROES GUILD! I DEMAND THAT THE LEADER OF THIS GROUP OF WEAKLINGS REVEAL HIMSELF!

(He swings the wrecking ball around expertly and soaks in the anger of the crowd. He doesn't give Crete time to reveal himself...)

RBVM: FINE! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!

(He grabs another plant from the crowd and punches him in the face with his spiked glove! Another "fan" is bleeding profusely, but RBVM isn't done...)

RBVM: BEHOLD MY WRATH!

(He sets the fan up and hits his finisher, which is essentially Rick Rude's Rude Awakening...)

Russ: That's the Kongou Kokuretsu Zan, Razz! The Gateway to Hell!

Razz: I don't care what you call it, that looks brutal!

RBVM: GRYFON, FOR EACH MINUTE YOU FAIL TO SHOW YOURSELF, ANOTHER PERSON PAYS IN BLOOD!

(He waits. No response. He grabs a final plant and TOSSES them into the ring. He puts THIS plant in an Iron Claw! The plant struggles while RBVM laughs evilly...

RBVM: TEN THOUSAND DEATHS!

(He lifts the plant up and hits El Generico's BRAINBUSTAH on the top turnbuckle! The plant lies bleeding and seriously injured!)

Russ: And what does he call THAT, Razz?

Razz: Ten Thousand Deaths, Russ. Are your ears clogged?

Takada: Ha-HA! He is YOUR problem now, OOWF!

Russ: He's an animal, Razz! I hope that Concrete TG shows his face soon!

[mooseheadjack]

Poe, with Selena by his side steps out of the main termianl at Nagasaki Airport in Omura. Two Japanese men are carrying their bags for them to the waiting limosuine.

Poe stops; takes a deep breath and smiles.

Poe: I'm home.

[mooseheadjack]

In the Team Fuel Locker Room, sponsored by Starbucks....

Lucky: So......ready to head to the plane?

FW: Yeah, mostly.....

L: .....

FW: .....

L: .....

FW: What?

L: The plane going to Japan?

FW: That would be the one. Kinda hard to get to next week's Mayhem otherwise.

L: It's just that....well, last time you were a little...um...apprehensive about going to Japan due to--

FW: Well, that was last time, Lucky. And yeah, Inagawa was there, but he didn't do anything.

L: I'd like to remind you of the events of three weeks ago. The Inagawa family is apparently still interested in you.

FW: Yes, well, I'm willing to bet they're going to be a bit more interested in Ecosystem, for the time being, since he fucked up big time.

L: True.

FW: Besides, there's Tsukasa. I can always call in a few favors.

The conversation is cut short with the arrival of Larsons, Evans, and newcomer Folz

C"L"E: I am sooo ready to take off. I mean...Japan! How awesome is that!!

"B"BL: Is it the first time you've been? Oh man, Fire and I will have to show you all the cool spots, right Fire?

FW: Yeah, whatever.

MF: They got fight clubs there, underground ones. Most are run by Yakuza folks, but if you know where to go--

FW: We aren't going to any fight clubs.

"B"BL: Are you kidding? We could clean up there! We'll put Fire in there, bet on her, and kick everyone's asses.

FW: (standing up quickly and throwing the table over, sending chairs and team mates scattering backwards). We are NOT going to ANY fight clubs! Do I make myself CLEAR?

Everyone else mumbles something like "yes"

FW: Fine. Now let's get to the airport and we can sit where we want on the plane.

Everyone grabs their stuff and heads to the door.

C"L"E: So what was that with you and Phantos during our match? Is it just that--

Firewoman stops him with a look of death.

L: You never learn, do ya....

They continue through the hallways, and stop at Team TEaM's door. Fire signals to Matt who enters the locker room, and comes out with Ecosystem.

ES: What the fu----.... aww, crap.

FW: Last time I'm telling you this. Fuel. No stupid alterna-capitalization. (She punctuates each letter with a Christian-esque slap) Capital-F (*slap*) small-u (*slap*) small-e (*slap*) small-l (*slap*). You got that?

Folz lets Ecosystem go as the group continues down the hall. Ecosystem rubs his jaw and stares after them.

[mooseheadjack]

*Run DLP is WALKING~! through Nagasaki Airport with their carry on bags*

DM: Well. Here we are. Japan again.

L: It's always good to come back.

P: I know. I always feel tall here.

*Lucios punches him in the shoulder*

P: OW! What?

SDM: God...I haven't been here in AGES. And it certainly wasn't with wrestlers. It was with -

DM: Cameras.

SDM:...friends.

DM: Good work. Say, remember what happened last time we were here?

SDM: What?

DM: Not you.

SFJ420: What?

DM: Not you either.

P: Sure. You were having your secret meetings with Alexis.

SDM: What?

DM: Yeah. Run DEA was born in Japan.

SDM: What secret meetings?

DM: Don't worry about it.

L: Thankfully, we don't have to worry about that again.

DM: Nope. Have you seen those two?

SDM: What secret meetings did you have with my sister?

P: I know. I almost feel bad for them. Almost.

L: And of course, Firewoman has gone completely off the deep end.

SDM: I AM ASKING YOU A QUESTION!

DM: Ooh...Cab. Go get it, P.

*He starts to run off, but it's not long before throngs of people in the airport recognize who they are and simply mob Run DLP. Not too long after that, they're signing autographs for everyone.*

SDM: *yelling over the crowd* WHAT WAS THE FUCKING SECRET MEETING?!?!

DM: *yelling back* DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!

SDM: ANSWER ME!

DM: DON'T WORRY! NOTHING HAPPENED!

*fade*

[mooseheadjack]

Poe and Selena arrive at the Nagasaki Arena. They begin to get settled in their locker room, knowing Moosehead Jack and LD Williams will be arriving shortly. Selena turns on the television.

The following commericial begins to play:


Selena stands in front of the television and stares at it, almost as if in a trance. Poe notices this and walks up behind her. He watches her as she stares at the screen, her only movement being a slight tilt of her head.

As the commercial ends, Poe places his hand on her shoulder. Selena suddenly snaps out of her state and elbows Poe hard in the ribs. Poe grunts and collapses to the floor.

SG: Omigosh, Master! I'm so sorry!

Poe: I'll be fine.

SG: I was watching that commercial and like totally had this overwhelming urge to hurt somebody.

Poe: Yes, I've heard of the Fruity Oaty Bar commercials doing that.

SG: ...Japanese commercials are weird.

[mooseheadjack]

AA and JA stand in front of the card in disbelief.

JA: We haven't done a promo in three weeks, yet we keep getting title shots and it looks like we're getting back into a feud with Phantos and Lucios. How can that be?

AA: We must be in the backward universe. If you suck, you win. If you're talented, you lose. That would explain a lot of things lately.

JA: You've never really been talented.

AA: True, but I'm damn good on the mic.

JA: So how are we getting title shots?

AA: Got me. Maybe Moose just enjoys beating the crap out of us every week.

JA: You just have no idea where kayfabe begins and ends, do you?

[mooseheadjack]

(The Heroes' Guild is ARRIVING~! in Nagasaki. They're gathering their bags as they are approached by a Catgirl SFJ)

CSFJ: Ne~! Irishimasse, Hiiro-tachi ^_^

CTG: Citizen Neko-chan, arigatou (bows to her)

Nayr: Felicia? (staring)

CSFJ: Konkritu, Mitte kudasai (she points to a small monitor)

Monitor: (flashes to life) Hiiro-tachi! Watakushi wa Takada Kaicho.... (sneer) you heroes are doomed, for I have unleashed a monster on your precious company.... you think you have monsters now?? I will SHOW you a monster! (laughs maniacally) what I have done will make your Moosehead Joe weep!! What I have sent will make your Poe cry! What I have sent will send you fleeing back to your beloved country! (laughs harder as the image goes to static)

CTG: FOUL DICTATOR! HOW DARE HE ATTACK THE OOWF

CSFJ: ano.... kaiju wa... dare?

Nayr: Godzilla?

CTG: (swats Nayr) Gojira!

Nayr: ow

CTG: It matters not the monster that they attempt to use to flatten the OOWF! Takada! Send forth your worst monsters!! I will slay them all! (Punctuates it with several ultraman poses)

CSFJ: Baka da yo!

CTG: that's "Geek".

[mooseheadjack]

(Eco and Matte are picking up their luggage at the Nagasaki airport.)

Matte: Eco...where's my Onslaught Belt?

Eco: I put it in my carry-on luggage. I thought it would be safer that way.

Matte: ...But I had it in my own carry-on luggage.

Eco: Mine is safer. It has more zippers.

Matte: Can I have it back now?

Eco: Hand it over in the airport? Where any pickpocket could just run up and snatch it? No thank you!

(Suddenly, Yoshi-san approaches the two men, dressed in a full business suit.)

Yoshi-san: Afternoon, Junichiro. Welcome back to Japan.

Eco: Hello there, Yoshi.

Matte: This is Yoshi? This is THAT asshole?

Yoshi: Asshole?

Eco: Perhaps you should excuse yourself for a second, Matte.

Matte: All right, but I'm getting Tytan from the hot dog vendor. (Matte storms off.)

Yoshi: Let's go speak somewhere...more private.

Eco: Where is there a private room in the airport?

Yoshi: The Yakuza makes a way.

Eco: You have a conference room in Nagasaki airport?

Yoshi: No...but I have the key to the employee's bathroom.

****

(Eco and Yoshi enter into the employee's bathroom. A foot in one of the stalls immediately begins tapping.)

Yoshi: Not now, Larry Craig-san!

(Larry Craig walks out, dejected.)

Eco: Wow, that's only the second time Larry Craig has ever shown up in my life. But AVID ECOSYSTEM AFICIONADOS ALREADY KNEW THAT!

Yoshi: Who are you talking to?

Eco: No one.

Yoshi: Let me be direct with you. You failed. You failed to deliver Firewoman. As I understand it, she is now here in Japan with you. We expect that you can correct your mistake.

Eco: Fuck you.

Yoshi: Excuse me?

Eco: Firewoman was with my guido buddies--who she apparently knew--for about two weeks there. Two weeks, and you guys weren't able to close the deal.

Yoshi: They were stonewalling us!

Eco: Stonewalling you? The Inagawa family, the might of the Yakuza, got stonewalled by a bunch of two-bit wop-dago greasers?

Yoshi: Listen, if you do not follow what I tell you , there will be consequences--

Eco: I don't think there will be. (Eco grabs Yoshi's collar.) Yoshi, I think you are a little man who talks real big about a powerless organization. I think your Yakuza branch is so damn weak that getting a B-celebrity wrestler to do your dirty work for you seemed a lot more attractive than trying to fend off law enforcement on your own.

Yoshi: You have no idea--

(Eco smashes Yoshi's head against the mirror.)

Yoshi: ITAI!

Eco: I don't like Firewoman, Yoshi. I jumped her team last week, and I intend to take her title belt. But I never wanted to have her kidnapped and sent to you depraved sadists. I did that out of fear and cowardice. I will not be a slave to those emotions again, and I will not be a slave to you. Do you understand?

Yoshi: You...

Eco: DO YOU UNDERSTAND? (Eco smashes Yoshi's head against the mirror again.)

Yoshi: You...we will destroy you...destroy your life...

Eco: Maybe twenty years ago. Maybe even ten. Not today.

(Eco smashes Yoshi's head against the toilet bowl, knocking him out. He then gets a little grin, and shoves Yoshi's head into the bowl, commencing with swirlies when the door is suddenly kicked in.)

Matte: You could have knocked.

Tytan: I don't knock. (Tytan notices Eco giving an unconscious Yoshi swirlies.) Shucks, I wanted to do that when I came in.

Eco: Beat you to the punch, I suppose. You can do the final honors.

(Tytan covers Yoshi for the 1-2-3! Winner...and STILL DDT IRON MAN HEAVY METAL CHAMPION...TYTAN!)

Tytan: It's just not the same. I like Working Harder, Not Smarter in this particular instance. Otherwise I'd just pin you all while you slept.

Matte: That sounds really sexual.

(Larry Craig pops his head back in.)

Craig: Did somebody allude to casual homosexual sex?

(They all share a good laugh.)

[mooseheadjack]

Firewoman, Chris Evans, Bryce Larson, Matt Folz, Lucky, and Blackdragon get off the plane at the Nagasaki Airport. They go to baggage claim, get their stuff, and sign autographs along the way. Firewoman gives up trying to keep a low profile, and she, Folz, and Blackdragon spend a great deal of time looking around and scanning the faces in the crowd. Evans and Larson are enjoying the notoriety and Lucky is just trying to keep everyone organized.

FW: Thank gods we're on the ground again.

C"L"E: You were quiet on the plane. Did you get any sleep?

FW: I don't sleep. I just had stuff to think about.

C"L"E: Like the fight club thing?

FW: No.

C"L"E: The Stank thing.

FW: No.

C"L"E: The Yakuza thing?

FW: Lucky....

L: I'm on it. Hey, Lionheart, these girls over here want their picture with you.

He leads Evans over to a group of teenage Japanese girls who were too shy to come up and ask for pictures. Firewoman lets out a sigh a relief.

"B"BL: You're so going to snap on him one day.

FW: He keeps up with the chatter, that day's going to come sooner than he thinks.

A man in a suit comes up to the group, particularly Firewoman. Folz and Blackdragon stand in his way, but, after a roll of the eyes in irritation Firewoman pushes them apart.

FW: Seriously?

Man: My employer would like to welcome you to Japan.

He hands her a card with this symbol on it.



FW: Nice. How is Tsukasa-san?

Man: He is well. He has sent me to assist you and your friends in your arrival to the arena and hotel so that there is no...interference.

FW: Would there be?

Man: (smiling) This way please.

Team Fuel follows the man to a large SUV limo. They place their luggage in back, and get in, heading to the arena.

[mooseheadjack]

*Back room of Poe's locker room*

Alexander Darling is in his usual lotus position while Alexis Darling just sits and stares at him.

Alexis: FUCK THIS!

Alexander: Huh?

Alexis: I said FUCK THIS! I'm tired of sitting here and not being allowed to do anything.

Alexander: But Master said...

Alexis: Oh my fucking lord, just stop with the god damn master thing.

Alexander: Capital M...

Alexis: You're making it really fucking hard for me to stick around Alex. I didn't sign on for this bullshit a 2nd time.

Alexander: Don't you get it Lexie. We lost what made us great. Mast...Poe can give it back to us. Just follow me on this. He'll lead us back to greatness. I'm sure of it.

Alexis: You're fucking delusional. He just wants to make us suffer...

Poe: That's not true Isis.

Alexis: Don't you dare fucking...

***SLAP***

Alexander jumps to his feet and gets up in Poe's face.

Poe: Watch your tone Alexis...and what do you think you're doing Boy. You dare stand up to me...

Poe shakes his head in disappointment as he calls out for Moose.

Can you come in here for a moment Moose, I have a favor to ask.

Moosehead Jack: *grumble grumble* Blood, respect, trust *grumble grumble* What's up Poe.

Poe reaches over and pulls Alexis over to him by the hair. He lifts her arm and exposes her chest area.

Poe: Moose, would you do the honors?

MHJ: With pleasure...

***HEARTPUNCH***

Alexis falls and Alexander is about to attack Moose when Poe quickly snatches his hand out and grabs Alex around the throat.

Don't you even think about it Boy. Learn the lessons or leave. The door will be open if you so choose, but if you do, never ever come back again or it will be the end.

Alexander stares at Poe and Moose as they leave the room and then he looks down at his sister who is starting to cough up some blood.

Alexis: *cough* Now can we leave? *cough*

Alexander: Master is right. We need to stay and learn our lesson. Please don't anger him again Lexie.

Alexis: You do whatever the fuck you *cough* want. I'm *cough* leaving.

Alexis pulls herself to her feet and starts walking to the door when she turns and looks over her shoulder at her brother. And her brother is just staring at the wall with dead eyes. She turns back towards the door and then back to her brother and then back to the door before sighing and shutting the door and walking back to her brother.

Fine, we'll do this together.

*Fade*

[mooseheadjack]

*The ninja cameraman earns his paycheck by doing a continuous shot through a Japanese nightclub to a back room. Several large Japanese men are nodding off around a large table, while Jack of the Hinterlands is downing sake. Wally B King struts through the back door and sist down next to Jack.*

WBK: Mr. Takahashi sends his regards, and asks us to stay neutral for now.

JotH: He knows about Gator?

WBK: He understands. You can do whatever you want about Gator. He only asks that if you get involved in other OOWF issues that involve Japanese interests, you clear it with him first.

JotH: I'll try to remember that.

WBK: He told me that's exactly what you'd say, and to remind you about what you said last time you came to Nagasaki.

JotH: Mr. Takahashi, watch and learn, as I make an example out of my next opponent!

[mooseheadjack]

Anders Denial approaches Poe's locker-room. He knocks on the door and Moosehead Jack.

Anders: Would Poe be in?

MHJ: He's a bit preoccupied at the moment.

Anders: Could you ask him if I could borrow Alexander Darling for a bit? I need to get ready for my match.

MHJ: That might be a problem as that's who Poe is preoccupied with.

Anders: You realize I could just barge in and take him, don't you?

MHJ: I've seen you in action Anders, you're impressive. But you got kZ and Poe in this lockerroom, 3 of the most brutal competitors in this promotion. You can try and barge in, but I don't think it's in your best interests.

Silence. You can feel the tension in the air. Anders is unfazed but so is MHJ.

Anders: You're probably right. I have no quarrel with any of you. Quite frankly, I respect you. You most of all Moose. I've been following your career here. You're a sick bastard when you want to be.

MHJ: Thank you.

Anders gets right in MHJ's face. MHJ reels back as if in shock but then recomposes himself very quickly.

Anders: I'm a sick bastard too Moose.

Anders turns and walks away.

Fade to Black

[mooseheadjack]

<we cut to the inside of Ric’s Sandwich Shoppe where Firewoman is sitting at her table. Standing in front of it is Matt Folz keeping anyone who dares to come too near to Fire at bay. Undaunted, Moose walks up to the table with a large coffee in his hand. Folz steps in front of Moose and puts his hand up to stop Moose, Moose grabs him by the shirt with his free hand and SLAMS him in the face with a head but. Fire just looks at Folz who is woozy but still on his feet. Folz looks like he is about to swing on Moose when Fire stops him>

FW: Matt, it’s fine, go have your nose looked at, it might be broken.

<Folz doesn’t say a word, just glares at Moose and walks off. Moose plops down in the chair and slides the coffee across the table to Fire without a word>

FW: You could have handled that better

MHJ: I could have. But I didn’t.

FW: No coffee for you?

MHJ: No

FW: You sure?

MHJ: No, I don’t want any fucking coffee

FW:<getting agitated> What is YOUR problem, and why should I care?

MHJ: I have had an exceptionally shitty week, and you shouldn’t care about MY week, you SHOULD care about not making such stupid decisions

FW: Oh really. And what stupid decision have I made other than remaining here.

MHJ: You really have to ask?

FW: No, I don’t

<Fire gets up to leave, but the glare she gets from Moose makes her sit back down and look at him strangely>

FW: Clearly there is something on your mind

MHJ: You got away with choking Poe out once. It won’t happen a second time

FW: Are you threatening me? Cause if you are…..

<once again Fire gets up to leave, this time Moose grabs her arm and pulls her back into her seat>

FW: What the fuck are you doing?

MHJ: You are going to shut the fuck up and listen for once. I am not Davin Moreland, I am not Alexander Darling, and I am not that stupid bitch Alexis Darling. I am not going to put up with your diva shit

FW:<clearly beyond pissed off> Fine. What.

MHJ: Like I said, you will get away with what you did to Poe once. If it happens again, all bets are off

FW: What is he going to do, send you after me? Pull the strings and watch his puppets attack? I saw what you did to Alexis, don’t think for a second that I…..

MHJ: First of all, call me a puppet again and see what happens. Second, Alexis is damn lucky that is all she got.

FW: And Poe is damn lucky that is all HE got. He didn’t live up to his end of the bargain so I…..

MHJ: So you what? So you attack the ONE person that can help you? YOU stand there in the parking lot and let twelve people attack you, and that is HIS fault? I thought you were smarter than that

FW: Just what are you saying?

MHJ: I am saying dear is that once again, your arrogance got you in trouble

FW: So I should have just run?

MHJ: When it is twelve on one? Yes

FW: Look at this! The mighty Moosehead Jack is telling me to run away from a fight! That’s rich

MHJ: You just don’t get it do you? You never have. Are you so arrogant to believe that it was your goomba buddies that saved you from the Yakuza? Are you so arrogant to believe that all these years it was JUST you that kept one step ahead of them? You alone have managed to outsmart an entire crime organization?

FW: So let me guess, Poe……..

MHJ: No. Not Poe.

FW: Wait…..what?

MHJ: who doesn’t matter. You and Poe are not the only ones who have connections. You, Poe, the Darlings, you are not the only ones who know what the hell was going on in Japan, and YOU are not the only one who has a grasp on what kind of trouble you were in. Now, I am not going to tell you what to do, cause lord knows that is a road that would be worthless to travel down. But I am going to tell you that you might want to reconsider your stance regarding certain people. If not, you are headed down the same road as Darling

FW: What? Being tortured like a little puppy by Poe?

MHJ: No. Not having a single ally in the OOWF. I know you think you can do anything, but you cannot face the OOWF alone. NO ONE can.

FW: So I should kiss ass?

MHJ: No, you should stop being such a stubborn brat. I thought those days were gone.

<Moose gets up to leave, but Fire jumps to her feet and gets in front of him. For a moment it looks like they are about to come to blows>

FW: One more thing. What the fuck is Stank talking about?

<Moose looks at Fire hard for a moment and something seems to pass between them>

MHJ: I have no idea. Maybe he has decided to start playing mind games. Watch your step.

<Moose turns and walks away, Fire slowly sits back down and sips her coffee, lost in thought>

[mooseheadjack]

*Run DLP is WALKING~! on the way to GM the Eric's office (Hey Eric! You're still the GM! Why don't you promo occasionally?) and they happen upon a fuming Moosehead Jack*

DM: Shoulda kicked her ass.

MHJ: Don't you fucking start too.

DM: Boys, why don't you go ahead without me?

P: Umm, are you sure that's a good idea?

L: *makes eye contact with Davin* Yeah Phantos. It's a great idea. Let's go.

*they leave*

MHJ: What?

DM: What what? Why didn't you kick her ass?

MHJ: That's none of your business.

DM: I'm pretty sure it IS my business.

MHJ: It's NOT your business. You just have a problem with her right now.

DM: That's why it's your business, Mr. "I Have Connections".

MHJ: I never said anything about me.

DM: Uh huh. Listen. Let me ask you a question.

MHJ: Make it quick.

DM: When are you going to stop being Poe's bitch and being relevant again?

MHJ: In case you haven't noticed, and I'm pretty sure you have, I am a tag champion.

DM: Sure, sure, with Virgil...I mean LD. This is beneath you. That whole situation is beneath you. That's not Moosehead Jack. That's Moosey.

*Moose snarls and loads up a right hand for Davin. Blocked. Davin counters with an elbow. Blocked. Moose tries for a headbutt, which Davin ducks. Davin tries to shove Moose into the wall, which he sidesteps at the last second. Davin comes up smiling.*

DM: Now that...THAT...was not Moosey. Nice to see you've still got it. Maybe they'll chant that at your next match.

MHJ: Was there a point here? Or do I really have to kick your ass now?

DM: No point other than the one I always make. You've always been better alone than lost in the crowd. Remember how The Establishment went? What about Team Bennett? You always seem to end up on the wrong side of things; and get shoved to the side when your abilities could make a difference.

MHJ: This is not helping your case any.

DM: Oh, my case is fine these days.

MHJ: Yeah, Blatantly Pandering Face is totally right up your alley. Right in Dav's Wheelhouse.

DM: So maybe I'm overdoing it a bit...

MHJ: A bit?

DM: Hey, I've got to re-establish as a face. Been a while, you know?

MHJ: I'll never understand it.

DM: I guess my family are natural faces.

MHJ: *almost...ALMOST...laughs...* Don't get yourself hurt, Dav.

DM: Don't get yourself buried, Moo.

*With that, they both turn and walk in opposite directions. Davin walks into GM the Eric's office, mid-conversation.*

GMtEOM: Oh Good. Davin. How ya been, buddy?

DM: Eh, ya know. But overall pretty good.

GMtEOM: How's the wife?

DM: Fine...

GMtEOM: Kids?

DM: What kids?

GMtEOM: Oh...I thought you had kids.

DM: No. These two are my kids.

P: HEY!

GMtEOM: That song RULED!

L: Anyway Mr. O'Mac

GMtEOM: Call me Eric.

L: Fine, Eric.

GMtEOM: *points* That's MR. O'MAC to you!

DM: Ah...Jesus Christ...

GMtEOM: Oh...Hey Davin.

DM: Hey. Eric. Listen. Saw the "Stips TBA" part of our match Wednesday. That up to us?

GMtEOM: I haven't heard from Team FuEL, so sure.

P: You're not supposed to spell it like that anymore. It's Fuel, like the word Fuel.

GMtEOM: I like Team FuEL better. Anyway. What did you have in mind?

DM: Well, I'm usually Mr. Violent Stips...

GMtEOM: Yeah, that's why I like you. Entertaining, you know?

DM: Well, I thought this time it might be a good idea to bring up an oldie but a goodie instead.

GMtEOM: Go on...

DM: Why not Phantos and Lucios' signature match? Best 2 of 3 Falls?

P: YEAH! That would be AWESOME, D!

L: We TOLD you on the way over here.

P: You did?

L: *sigh*

GMtEOM: 2 of 3 falls...Know what? I LIKE it! Sign me up! This Wednesday for the OOWF Campeonas de Trios Championships...It's Run DLP vs. Team FuEL in a Best 2 out of 3 Match! Only on MidWeek Mayhem! WHOOO!

Matt Folz(Wearing a bandage on his nose) sees Moosehead Jack in the parking lot of their hotel.

"Hey Moose"
Moose turns around, Folz quickly pulling him into a overhead belly to belly suplex onto his car.
Standing over Moose's semi concious body
"That makes up for my nose, I won't be treated like a bitch, understand?"

[mooseheadjack]

<Moose shakes himself awake and gets on his knees on the hood of the car and leaps off on Folz who is walking away, bulldogging him to the ground. Moose flips him over and hammers him with punches to the head, punctuating each shot with

KNOW.....

YOUR......

PLACE....

ROOK.....

Moose stops hitting him, then sees Fire standing there. Moose gets to his feet, then looks at Fire who is staring at him with a look of death. Moose considers what to do next, he looks down at the snarling Folz, then offers him his hand to help him up. Folz gets up on his own and brushes himself off. Moose shakes his head and walks away>

[mooseheadjack]

Folz gets up to go after Moose, but Fire stops him

FW: You know, he can do that all day.

MF: So can I.

FW: Hardly the point. Look, I know you're my....well, I don't know exactly why you're here. I can't afford to pay you your usual fee... but Moose is off limits.

MF: What? That doesn't make any sense.

FW: It doesn't have to. Do it again, and it won't be him that curbstomps you onto a pile of tacks.

MF: ....

FW: ....

MF: You're serious.

FW: Yes. I'm heading to the Destroyitarium.

MF: Good god, why?

Firewoman ignores him and walks. Folz hesitates a moment, looks the direction that moose went, thinks about it, and then goes after Firewoman.

[mooseheadjack]

(Crete is PACING~! in his hotel room while Nayr is surfing the web)

CTG: this is NOT what I had hoped for in this trip to Japan. I had expected this peaceful place to give me a day to go to Akihabara....

Nayr: I don't know why Takada wants to take out the OOWF- it's not like we're here all year. Did LADDER call you back?

CTG: Not yet - I hope that he wasn't held up in customs again.....

(CTG's phone rings)

Nayr: that him?

CTG: (grabs his cellphone) moshimoshi? ... hai.... nanda? .... dare? ... Neko-chan ka? honto desu ka...? (shakes head) right.... I don't think she'll be as good against Takada's new monster, but I appreciate the suggestion..... no no, she can come too..... right... (closes phone)

Nayr: Huh?

CTG: That was LADDER.... He told me about another former DDT Iron Man champion who could help us out, but I don't think she's suited for what we're dealing with.....

Nayr: "She"? Well, she's gotta be tough if LADDER's talking about her.

CTG: She'll be with LADDER when he gets here later tonight.

Nayr: so he got held up in customs AGAIN?

CTG: The guys at the metal detectors are militants to him....

[mooseheadjack]

Firewoman and Matt Folz arrive at the Destroyitarium, and walk on in.

FW: I guess Spin didn't get that lock after all. Shannon, whiskey.

BT: Shannon isn't the bartender, I am.

FW: Fine. Whiskey. And whatever Folz here wants.

Firewoman grabs her drink and goes to sit at Stank's table.

FW: It's amazing that you're as successful as you are. You never train, you never watch your diet....

St: It would be inhospitable of me to not offer you a seat.

He kicks a chair out and Firewoman sits down.

FW: Thanks.

St: (nodding in Folz's general direction)

St: You think you need that?

FW: Heh...no.

St: Ah...You don't trust him at all.

FW: Not as far as I can thrown him.

Stank looks her up and down, but not in THAT way. Well, maybe a little...

St: Well, you're probably the strongest woman I know, but that's not that far.

FW: Exactly.

St: We done with the small talk?

FW: Sure. You figured it out.

St: Yeah.

FW: And?

St: And?

FW: ....

St: ....

FW: So....

St: Look, you wanna keep it secret? Fine. I don't know why and I don't care. I'm guessing there's no love lost.

FW: Your point?

St: I know what you are considering, and sometimes blood isn't worth it.

Firewoman appears to be considering, and the Bartender comes by with another round

FW: And if I think it is?

St: I think that would be a very very serious mistake.

FW: Heh, really? For whom?

St: For everyone.

FW: Yeah, well, don't worry your pretty little head about it. That locker room is crowded enough as it is with people I'd rather disappear off the face of the earth.

St: Including...

FW: Especially.

Bartender delivers another round, as Firewoman and Stank consider where to go next.

FW: So what are you offering?

St: Meaning?

FW: Let's say I think you're full of shit, and I do the opposite of what you're suggesting. I suppose there will be . . . "repercussions."

St: *batistalaughs* Wow, you really are messed up. Look, I'm not threatening you. You do what you want. Just know that you'll get the same treatment as whoever you take up with.

FW: Uh huh. And I take your advice?

St: I can be a very useful and powerful ally.

Firewoman looks at Stank, and appears to be trying to figure out his angle.

FW: I don't trust you any further than I can throw you either.

St: I could tell you to "trust me." Would that help?

Firewoman is amused. She downs her latest shot, and stands.

FW: Nice talking to you, Stank.

St: Be seein' you.

Firewoman walks to the door, and she and Folz leave.

[mooseheadjack]

*A crowd of Japanese wrestling fans have thronged the Destroyitarium. Stank is signing autographs while the Bartender and Shannon serve drinks as fast as they can, until the door to the back room opens. Jack of the Hinterlands walks out, with Empty Team face paint on, and the room empties quickly. The Bartender slaps a bottle of whiskey and a glass on the bar, but Jack just grabs the bottle and starts to drink.*

Stank: You know, Gator knew the risks.


Jack: He did. Especially after Toledo. Still doesn't make it any easier.

Stank: You want to talk about it?

Jack: What do you think?

Stank: Didn't think so.

[mooseheadjack]

Tytan is walking down the Hall of Random Journalist when he is met up with one.)

Rj: Tytan Team TEaM has been very quiet this week any reason?

Tytan: Actually we have been enjoying the sights...but now that you have my attention listen up. SYB you see what did I tell you...I still have my belt. Now you guys want to challenge Team TEaM well my friend you are either dumb or enjoy getting a beat down.

Tytan: You see it's just like that...and come Mayhem IHOP you will be broken.

Eco: Come on Tytan it's time to go see some more sites.

Tytan: All right let's go..

(FADE)

[mooseheadjack]

*Stank turns to his right, away from Jack of the Hinterlands, and is startled by the presence of... ... SUPER LARGE EXPLOSIVE ANGER AND RANDOM BLOODY VIOLENCE MAN!*

Stank - What th- !

SLEAARBVM - Sup?

Stank - ... ... Spin?

SLEAARBVM - NO!

Stank - Then who... ?

SLEAARBVM - BARKEEP! GET ME a bottle of SUNTORY MALT'S and a plate of BACON!

*Stank looks back and forth from Jack to SUPER LARGE EXPLOSIVE ANGER AND RANDOM BLOODY VIOLENCE MAN several times over before mumbling to himself.*

Stank - Boy are we having an identity crisis.

*Thim Reynolds enters the Destroyitarium and seats himself at a nearby table where Shannon the barmaid takes his order. Stank excuses himself and walks over, joining Thim at his table.*

Stank - Well if it isn't the 2006 wrestler of the year.

TR - I just stopped by to remind you who will be taking your belt this week.

Stank - Ha! I'm sure you'll try. I haven't forgotten about you. I'm not THAT preoccupied.

TR - Could have fooled me. Our match is tomorrow and you've only promoed about whatever the bloody hell it is you got going on with Firewoman.

Stank - Not true. First, I don't have a damn thing going on with Firewoman. Second, that was Fire's promo.I haven't promoed on anything.

TR - Didn't some chickie by the name of Kayfabe run around here whenever she got broken?

Stank - Eric keeps her on a tight leash.

TR - Oh.

Stank - Anyway... It's not like I've become so distracted that I stop articulating thoughts mid-sen-

CTG: SUPER LARGE EXPLOSIVE ANGER AND RANDOM BLOODY VIOLENCE MAN!! ARE YOU THE MONSTER WHO DARES ENTER THE OOWF WITH DESTRUCTION IN YOUR HEART AND OBLITERATION ON YOUR MIND!
