Shaed walks in... looking to his wife. "... Morrigan...?"
Morrigan opens her eyes... looking up at her husband with a smile. "... Darling... just in time... come. We've got a lot tae talk about."
Shaed nods. "... All right..."
"... Shaed, darling... I think I know how a better deal about the spell that Ariel's under," Morrigan says.
"You do?" Shaed smiles. "Well, what's the news?"
"The spell has two halves... a trigger and an effect..." Morrigan explains. "The trigger cannae be tampered with, or else the effect will enact... and little Ariel'll be very much in deep trouble."
"Is there anything we can do?" Shaed asks.
"... Aye... there's a way tae go intae the void and try tae alter the effect... but I dinnae know how tae..."
"Blast..." Shaed crosses his arms, looking to Morrigan... then out the window. "... Well... we'll need to acquire someone who knows a great deal of magic, it seems... the question is, who?"
*There's a slight magical shimmer... and a Robed form appears in the room. He steps foreward, pulling back his hood... revealing a recognizable mouse, wearing an amulet, which glows in a faint red light. "Someone call for an Arch-Mage?"
Shaed and Morrigan both stare almost dumbfounded... the Morrigan sighs deeply. "Ach, Jonathan Brisby..."
"... You were... watching us?" Shaed says.
"No... Merelly waiting for the moment I knew would come." He replies, naturally cryptically.
"... Right... ach, everytime I see ye or hear about ye I think back tae the bachelorette party..." Morrigan sighs... then composes herself. "... Well... ye dae have the magic... I guess we can accept ye'er help, then."
Brisby smiles slightlly. "Of course... We shall have to act when the time is right... during his Holy Wars Match. His battle will leave him distracted... he hopefulyl will not notice our actions until it is too late."
"Sounds good... Sonnette and I will most definately have our hands full with both Damien and Ryokami..." Shaed notes. "... But if we all work together... Damien will be stopped..." Shaed holds his hand out to Brisby. "... Glad to have your help, Brisby."
*Brisby looks at his hand for a moment, before accepting it. "Merelly doing what must be done, nothing more."
Shaed nods, shaking Brisby's hand. "Believe me... we appreciate it."
*Brisby nods* "We must prepare..."
Styles: For our opening bout tonight, Jeff Jarrett takes on the Franchise Shane Douglas--the winner will be the only one able to call himself the Franchise...
LG: I think it's a little too soon in his EAW career for Jarrett, even considering as much of a veteran he is, to be calling himself a Franchise...I'd be inclined to say the same about Douglas as well.
Styles: Jarrett....on his own here.
Jarrett climbs into the ring and poses on the ropes while holding up his guitars as his pyros go off behind him. His music is cut and he sets his sunglasses and guitar at ringside.
"Perfect Strangers" by Deep Purple begins to play...
Styles: And there's the FRANCHISE'S MUSIC!! The man whose moniker that Jarrett seems to want so badly...yeesh...I wonder if Jarrett has stopped to think if it would worth it.
LG: Speaking of "franchises"....is it me, or does Douglas look like he's been hitting the fast food a little too much?
Styles: Douglas not exactly recieving a favorable reaction from this capacity crowd....seeming to be taunting the "Bluegrass Badass"...
Franchise Match

Styles: There's the bell...and this match is officially on...the two are trying to circle each other...Douglas with a kick to the midsection...another...Jarrett catches...ENZUI GIRI!!

LG: Douglas is back in now...Jarrett getting to his feet...Douglas snapmares him over...ROLLING NECK SNAP!!!
Styles: Jarrett suffering a bad case of whiplash from that maneuver...Douglas picks Jarrett....and is...tying him up in the ropes?!

Winner by Pinfall >>> "The Franchise" Shane Douglas
We shift to a camera backstage.
"Come on out, you DAMN ELF!!" shouts the angry Kael....
"P-Please...leave me alone!!" a high-pitched voice shreiks.
Talisia peeks her head up over the left side of Seijimei's desk, the side that if facing the wall, as some measure of protection. She cries, "Why are you doing this?"
"I MUST get rid of all you damn elves...I don't care if you ARE AN ENDANGERED SPECIES!! DAMN YOU...DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!"
With that Minister sprays more bullets above the desk (funny how he hasn't realized he could shoot the desk itself and hit Talisia, but in any case...).
"MINISTER!!" Seijimei yells, as he enters the room...WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY OFFICE?!"
Minister spins around and tries to hold the AK-47 behind his back. Seijimei sees the telltale strings of bullet holes in the walls, and a low sobbing...he follows it to behind the desk and checks up on Talisia.
"TALISIA!? Are you alright? Are you hit?!"
"I-I-I d-don't think..."
Looking over and up at Minister, his face filled with rage, "KAEL!!!"
The Minister, still trying to hide the firearm, rocks back in forth on his ankles and whistles innocently.
"This is it...it was bad enough you cursing at her last night, but trying to shoot my secretary is going way too far!! Kael, first of all, I'm going to have you thrown out of the building..."
"B-but, Seijimei...my People's Title defense...?" Minister protests.
"Thanks for reminding me...that will be taken care of right away; I'm stripping you of the title and awarding it to Cyrus!"
"WHAT?!?"
"You heard me, Kael" Seijimei scolds him again, adding, "And I WILL turn you in the game commission, so don't think you'll get off that easy..."
Minister's head sank as he walked out the door...
Hardcore Title Ladder Match
The arena quiets down, for a brief moment, until the old Harlem Heat theme™ cues up, as former Hardcore Champion: Booker T. comes out getting a very mild pop from the fans. Booker strides to the ring, as the EAW Hardcore Title dangles from a ring up in the middle of the room. Ladders are set upon all over the arena for this match, as Booker LG and Joey Styles ring table is moved back due to the intensity of the upcoming match. Booker T. grabs the top ropes, and springs himself over them; putting himself in the ring. Just as Booker enters the ring, "Jenny's Got a Gun" by Aerosmith hits and Tympani Craig, wastes no time as she sprints to the ring, beginning the match.
*ding, ding*
Tympani places a kick into the stomach of Booker T. , and follows up with a few right hands. Booker T. shakes the shots off, and proceeds to clothesline Tympani. Tympani gets to her feet, and Booker whips her into the far corner of the ring. Booker tries to follow up the move, but catches a boot to side of his face from Tympani.Tympani kicks Booker in the shins, and plants him with a DDT on the mat, allowing Tympani enough time to go to the outside the ring to grab a chair and a laying down ladder. Tympani throws the items into the ring, and approaches the apron. Booker T. arrives to his feet, and picks up the ladder. Tympani uses the ring ropes to propel herself, springboard dropkicking the ladder into Booker's face. Booker falls to the mat, as the ladder smacks into his forehead. Tympani grabs the fallen ladder and the chair, and proceeds to drop them on top of Booker's head; the chair on his head first and the ladder on top of the chair. Tympani runs to the corner, and rushes toward Booker delivering a thumbling senton legdrop(a la: RVD) onto the face of Booker. Tympani picks up Booker T. showing that he's bleeding, so early in the match. Tympani throws Booker into ropes, and catches him with a back elbow into the face. This doesn't keep Booker down long, as he gets to his feet and catches Tympani with a stiff kick to the gut.
"Finally, Booker is getting some minor offense. Tympani just double-overed from that kick..and Booker is setting her up..POWERBOMB ON LADDER!" Joey Styles utters the first commentary of the match. "Booker just powerbombed Tympani onto that ladder, and her back may be broken.
"While Tympani's down, Booker could be going for that Hardcore Title now...and I think he heard me. He's setting up that ladder while now, and he kicked Tympani aside." Booker Lord Gokuo lets out.
Booker T. was about on the halfway rung, until Tympani slammed a steel chair into his back. Booker shakes off the chairshot, and continues to climb the ladder. Tympani then dropkicks the ladder, making it tip over. Booker then losses his balance, and falls onto the outside of the ring. The ladder doesn't fall out of the ring, but instead bounces back from the ring ropes. Tympani doesn't use the time to try to get the title, but sets the ladder onto the ring apron! Tympani springs on the apron, and tries to get the revived Booker with a flying body splash from the apron. Booker catches the jumping Tympani, flips her around in a running powerslam position, but her head is propped up. Booker throws Tympani, as if she was a bow-and-arrow right into the ladder on the apron! Surpisingly, the ladder remains on the apron, and Booker rolls Tympani into the ring. Booker starts to climb the ladder on the apron, until he gets to the top. He's no where near the Hardcore Title, as he is on the apron, but he goes to inflict more pain onto Tympani Craig. Booker waits until Tympani stumbles to her feet..
Styles:"WHOA! MISSILE DROPKICK FROM THE APRON OFF THE DAMN LADDER!!"
Booker quickly grabs the ladder from the apron, and sets it up. Booker is on the top of the ladder..his hand reaching for the Hardcore Title...his fingers gracely 'tickles' the title..his hand in fully touches the title. Booker begins to to wobble around on the ladder, he wipes some sweat out of his eyes. Once again Booker reaches for the title again, he's got his hand on it.
LG: Whos that!?
Styles: Its Nuke!
Nuke exits the crowd and pushes the ladder. Booker lands groin first onto the ropes. Nuke exits the ring and pulls a table out from under it. He pushes it back into the ring and then rolls in himself. He sets up the table walks over, kicks Booker T in the back of the head and sets up the ladder. Booker T gets up slowly. Nuke turns around just as Booker hits him with a spinning heel kick. Nuke gets knocked down. Booker starts to climb..Nuke gets up and starts to climb after him. Once again Booker has his hand on the title belt..LOW BLOW by Nuke! Turn turns on the ladder and grabs Bookers legs....Powerbomb off the ladder threw a table!!
Styles: OHMYGOD!!!!!
LG: Booker shaddered that table like glass!
Nuke climbs the ladder and gets the title for himself, dropping down and running out back as Booker and Tympani start to move.
WINNER BY GRABBING TITLE >>> Nuclear, NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION
The camera goes to a shot backstage of Crucifix standing before a door with a nameplate marked "Booker Seijimei." Crucifix is wearing the black and white tights with no overcoat or glasses, and blood stained tattoo on his chest.
"I don't want to have to do this..." Crucifix says.
"Shut and do it...get it over with...this is Seijimei's fault for trying to ruin my fun with Lilith." Booker Tatum, who appears as the camera pans slightly right, replies.
Crucifix, with a look of reluctance on his face and a sledgehammer in his grasp, bursts into the door...and sees Booker Seijimei, with Talisia standing near the desk.
"Crucifix?" A perplexed Seijimei says, "Hello? Anything I can do for you?"
Without answering, Crucifix walks over to the front of the desk and grabs Seijimei by the hair, yanking him out of his seat and on top of the desk, and slams his head into before rolling him off it, and onto the floor. Talisia begins to scream but is grabbed and restrained by Booker Tatum, who also clamps his hand over her mouth.
Crucifix begins to take the sledgehammer to the knees of Seijimei. Another woman comes around the corner...
sees Seijimei being attacked, then rushes forward and spears Crucifix hard, then back roll throws him away. She kippups to her feet and stands ready to attack, but Crucifix is down...Talisia breaks free from Tatum and throws him over her shoulder. Talisia goes to the injured Seijimei and cries out for the EMTs to help him...and the other woman helps Seijimei to his feet as the two prop him up and lead him out of the room...
Sinister comes into the room and helps up Tatum. "Incompetent..." mutters the voice of Sinister as he looks down, directing the remark at Crucifix. Tatum turns his head Sinister's way, "Can't find good help these days...can I?" Tatum says. He storms out the door past Sinister, who follows shortly behind, leaving Crucifix lying in the office.
Suddenly a white light fills the screen, a hand reaches out for Crucifix, and helps him up. A confused Crucifix looks up, "Who-who are you?"
"I am called....Valient..." the voice answers as it pulls Crucifix up to his feet...
Deanna on a Pole Match

*"Wasted Youth Crew" by Blood for Blood hits and the lights dim. On the stage Silver and Blue pryos go off as the crowd starts to cheer, giving Overlord a face pop for a change. Krist walks down the ramp, looking at Deanna with a far away look. He can't seem to muster a smile as he walks down to the ring.*
Styles: Man, you gotta know that the weight of the world must be on Overlord's shoulders right now. The fate of his sister hangs in the balance against one of the most terrifying forces here in the EAW...Mechius..
*"Iron Man" hits as the lights come back on. The effect is almost amazing. The fans suddenly grow quiet...then Mechius steps out and a monsterous noices, starting low and getting louder, shaking the arena. Hellish Heel Heat pours at Mechius but Mechius pays no attention as he walks down toward Overlord, his metallic dread locks falling acrossed his face plate*
LG: Damn it styles haven't you ever learned? Speak of the Devil and he shall come!..well..this match is about to get underway..
Styles: Mechius just rolled into the ring and Overlord is stomping away at him! Mechius is getting up slowly, but Overlord just keeps kicking him!
LG: Damn, but Mechius is still starting to stand, seemingly able to shrug off the attack. Mechius is to his feet now as Overlord starts to blast him in the face with his fist. Mechius is forced back slightly but Overlord just keeps going at it!!!

LG: Mechius is getting Up! Overlord grabs the chair again and starts to hit Mechius over and over again. Mechius is now forced to roll out of the ring, away from the onslaught of Overlord. Overlord drops the chair..whats he doing now?
Styles:..Overlord is into the ropes..SUICIDE DIVE OVER THE ROPES ONTO MECHIUS!..Mechius is knocked into the security barrier..Mechius is pulling himself up again..Overlord grabs the steel stairs..he charges Mechius...
LG: Ohh..Mechius just punched the steel stairs back into Overlord's face..Mechius grabs Overlord's foot and starts to drag him up the stage!..whats he doing!?
Styles: I do believe he is taking part of the ramp appart!..Overlord is back to his feet..his nose is bleeding though..Mechius has part of the stage in his hands..Overlord drop kicks part of the Stage back into Mechius..AND MECHIUS FELL THROUGH THE HOLE WITH THAT ON HIS CHEST!..
*Overlord gets up slowly and looks into the hole..Mechius's hand grabs Overlord and pulls him into under!*
LG: GET A CAMERA DOWN THERE!
*A camera arrives to see Mechius and Overlord punching it out. Overlord ducks on of Mechius punches and hits a Russian Leg Sweep. Mechius rolls onto his side as Overlord grabs a pipe..*
Styles: This doesn't look good..Overlord is hitting Mechius with the pipe as Mechius tries to crawl away. Man, Overlord is taking his frustrations out on Mechius..Big Time...
LG: ...look! Mechius just grabbed a pipe of his own..Overlord goes to hit Mechius but Mechius is able to hit Overlord in the leg with his pipe first..Overlord drops his pipe and Mechius starts to climp up to his feet!

Overlord grabs Mechius by his Metallic hair and pulls him over the edge of the stage. Overlord starts to punch Mechius but Mechius is slowly standing back up again!

Styles: Better yet..why do they have a cross!
LG: The Commission and The Hardyz have dragged Overlord out of the ring..they are carring him up the stage..they have him next to the cross...

*Mechius rolls into the ring and looks up at Deanna. Behind him the Commission and The Hardy's let go of the cross as Overlord is pulled up and Deanna is lowered. Above the stage Krist looks out over the crowd while in the ring Mechius rips over the cage door*
Styles: THATS NOT RIGHT! OVERLORD CAN't DO ANYTHING!
LG: Whats Mechius doing?
*In the ring Mechius grab Deanna by the neck and and pulls her out of the cage as the bell rings and Mechius is declared the winner*
Styles: Now Mechius gets to do anything he wants to Deanna and I think I.....NOOOOO FUCK NO!!!!
LG: NOO!! GET SECURITY!!!
*But its to late. Mechius puts his hand on Deanna's forehead while holding onto her neck. With a quick motion Mechius pushes back and twists breaking Deanna's neck with a loud snap. Deanna falls*
Style: GOD HAVE MERCY ON THE POOR GIRL'S SOUL!!!
LG:!!!!!!!!
*The crowd is both stunned and sicked as Mechius turns and leaves Deanna in the ring. On the cross Overlord comes to..Mechius walks up the stage as "The Imperial March Rage Remix" plays*
"Black" by Sevendust begins to play, and a man's silhouette appears in the entranceway, his eyes shining brightly. his arms at his side and his feet together...Kairi Lyger walks out onto the stage, and to the ring with purpose.
Styles: The would-be European Champion, Kairi Lyger!
LG: By "would-be" we mean he would be the European Champion still if he hadn't been screwed out of it by the most corrupt booker outside "our competition." Booker Tatum seems to have some kind of death wish, playing around with some of the toughest and most dangerous wrestlers in this company.
Styles: But tonight, all of that is probably the furthest thing from Lyger's mind, as he gets set to take on an old rival, one of our former World Champions...Shaed Bloodgrave. The last time they met they came to a draw.
LG: Basically it all comes down to this: Shaed may be in a bit of a rut as of late, but he's at the top of this company. Lyger is fairly new, and if he could put away his old rival here, he'd immediately be considered a top competitor.
"Engel" by Rammstein begins to play...
Styles: And here he is now...the leader of the Knight Cross, the former three-time World Heavyweight Champion...the Revenant...helluva a matchup here, fans.
Shaed gets into the ring and waits for his music to be cut. Shaed and Kairi stand across from each other and bow to each other...the bell rings.
*ding,ding*
Kairi starts the match by springing forward, cartwheeling into a headscissor takedown on Shaed.
LG: Impressive move by Lyger takes down Shaed.
Shead springs up, ducks a side kick by Kairi, slips behind, waistlock.
Styles: Duck and counter...Shaed with a Backdrop on Kairi!
Both are back up to their feet quickly, Shaed throws a spin kick that is blocked by Lyger, Lyger spins him around.
LG: Kairi intercepting the martial arts kick...goes into a Full Nelson on Shaed...SLAM!! QUICK LEG DROP!!
As Shaed gets back up, Kairi goes for a Drop Kick that Shaed sidesteps, he grabs Lyger and whips him to the corner.
Styles: Shaed back on offense, charges into the corner with a charging knee...RIGHT TO THE GUT!!! He cinches up Lyger--snap suplex...a cover one..Lyger kicks out!!
Shaed pulls Kairi to his feet, and could it be the...
LG: Looks like the SUDDEN IMPACT!!
Styles: NO, Shaed hooks the leg, an STO--
LG: REVERSED!! Lyger drops down with an armbar!! Lets go...probably rather wise on the part of Lyger to strike quick and strike often. Neither of these guys have any recent documented injuries...Shaed heals up from anything, so neither one of these guys has been able to formulate a clear point or pattern of attack.
Kairi drags Shaed to his feet, and quickly sets up Shaed and...
Styles: LYGERBOMB!!! ONE...TW--NO!!
Shaed brings his heels together to break up the pin and the count on the Lygerbomb. Shaed immediate goes on offense again with a hook kick, a roundhouse, then an Irish Whip...
Styles: Lyger off the ropes..grabs hold--kick the head of Shaed! Kairi SUNSET FLIP!!! ONE--Shaed rolls out of it!! Lyger kicks back up! Shaed with a Chin Crusher! Shaed going for the Spinning DDT...COUNTERed into a Water Wheel Drop by Lyger!! Shaed slowly getting back up...

WINNER BY PINFALL >>> Kairi Lyger
Lyger and Shaed bow again when Shaed recovers and shakes of Lyger's finisher. Shaed holds up Lyger's right hand.
Styles: "I've just been informed that we've finally gotten a camera into Overlord's locker room. You must understand, ladies and gentlemen the reality of what just happened. Mechius tonight killed Deanna Jonsson. This is not a wrestling angle. This is obviously going to be a very hard time for him, so please bear with us."
LG: "Would ya shut up?! I honestly think Overlord, after his career, is going to call it quits tonight. Let's look at this from a different perspective. In Overlord's mind, he lost his wife and best friend because of wrestling. He's become a very bitter person over the past few months in EAW, and he really hasn't had much success... or at least not as much success as he thinks he needs. I know Krist Jonsson very well, and I honestly think that tonight is a terrible night, and will become a very dark day in wrestling, first the loss of a tremendous person, and female performer Deanna, and then Overlord quits..."
Styles: "I think you may be jumping to conclutions..... we bring you now to Overlord's dressing room."
[The screen cuts to the inside of Overlord's dressing room. He is standing, passing back and forth like a hornet, his hand on his forehead, looking at the ground.]
"Tonight is the absolute last straw. It's over." [A tear begins to run down Overlord's cheek, it is followed by others like it. Overlord sniffles, then continues.] "There is not one reason why any of you should feel sorry for me, I don't deserve your pity, nor do I want it. But Deanna was the genuinly nicest human being in existance. She would never do anything to hurt anybody. Mechius... YOU TOOK HER AWAY!" [Overlord screams in a sobbing rage.] "Through my entire life, I've done alot of bad things... I've done drugs, hurt people, all for the greater cause, whatever it was in my life at the time... but through it all, when the camera was off, I've... I've tried to be a good man. Mechius, tonight, you destroyed everything to me. I've had no one but her... and now you took her. WHY NOT ME!!" [Overlord screams with all of his might, still sobbing, crying.] "Mechius...." [Overlord says as he begins to get a hold of himself.] Mechius tonight... there's nothing more on the line anymore. Mechius, there is absolutly no number one contendership... there is only two things... number one, is getting revenge, I don't care how... but tonight I will destroy you... and number two, I'm going to give this crowd a show that none of them will every forget... I'm gonna give them my last show." [Overlord says in a deep destructive voice as he walks out of shot quickly. The screen cuts back to the arena.]
The camera pans over to a young girl--in a black bodysuit, black boots, black gloves, with a black hooded cloak, a black facemask with a white porcelain mask added, with a black teardrop painted on the right cheek--sitting in the front row, brandishing a katana (!!).
Bullpen Cage Match for the Vacant EAW World Heavyweight Title
Styles: That's a bit odd...who could that be?
LG: I dunno...but she looks ASIAN to me...
Styles: So should I hold you back?
LG: Don't....I'll whoop yo ass...
"Wasted Youth Crew" by Blood for Blood begins to starts up, heralding the entrance of Overlord and Crucifix. They stand on the stage a few moments, and then a few moments later...
"The Decadent's" video package and "The Way I Am" by Eminem begins to play...the lights dim.
Hera (Hunter's girlfriend/Lilith's lover) comes out first, followed closely behind by the first number one contender....Hunter Hearst Helmsley himself. He begins to walk down the ramp flanked by Crucifix and Hera ran ahead of them...eliciting quite a response from the male fans.
Styles: Hera running...that's a sight I'll never tire of...
LG: Blah..she's white--who cares?! That pop's for Hunter!!
Styles: Apparently every other straight man in here cares....because I don't think too many of these fans are whistling at Hunter.
LG: Damn whitey-f***ers....
Hera separates the ropes for Hunter, who pulls himself onto the apron and walks through them...the Bullpen Cage looms overhead...
The referee begins to work on a combination lock attached to a large steel box...the one that, we could figure, contains the wrist devices that control the pen locks. Crucifix and Overlord already have their devices that are designed to shock them should they disobey the rules of the match and not return to their "pens" when the time limit is up. They also carry a spare pair, one that Minister would be wearing had he not been kicked out of the building AGAIN...
Styles: Helmsley looks ready to win tonight, in what will be only his second World Title shot...the last being a ladder match in which both he and Flyboy grabbed the belt...and as a result was vacated. Triple H invented this matchup...and he has the partners to back it up... but where is Flyboy's backup?
LG: As far as I know, he has no backup...Fly accepted out of bravado or stupidity...pick one.
As the referee begins to fit the wrist device on Hunter, "Criminal" by Eminem begins to play, and a similar light show as the one that preceded Hunter's entrance begins...Flyboy's entrance video plays and then the man himself, the Flyboy, steps out onto the stage, taking a sip from his water bottle.
LG: Well lookie here...Flyboy, all alone...I say stick a fork in him...he's done...no way that Flyboy is walking out of here with the title.
Just then the lights go up as the Flyboy is halfway up the ramp, and the music stops...the ring announcer is looking off a card that has just been handed to him.
"Ladies and gentlemen...I've just been handed a card announcing the Flyboy's THREE PARTNERS for the Bullpen Cage Match..."
LG bites his bottom lip.
Styles: Maybe you spoke too soon?
The announcer continues, "Introducing first..." "Simon Says" by Pharoahe Monch begins to play, and the Television and newly crowned People's Champions--the Elite and his protege Cyrus, steps out onto the stage, and make their way down the ramp, both staring at Hunter...
LG: This could be bad...but that's only two--where is the other one?
As Elite and Cyrus are fitted with similar devices as Overlord and Crucifix are wearing, the announcer continues, "and finally...from a military stronghold at an undisclosed location...weighing in at two-hundred sixty-five pounds...MECHIUS!!!"
"Iron Man" by Black Sabbath begins to play and Mechius walks out...alone...without acknowledging the fans' screams and brickbats.
LG: AHHH! There's a BRICK to Mechius...
Styles: A BAT!! These fans are vicious tonight....but not nearly as much as Mechius himself.
The last device, one considerably souped up and designed to Mechius' specifications, is attached around Mech's wrist...the Bullpen Cage is slowly lowered...and the partners take their places in the cages attached to the walls behind the wrestler they are supporting...Overlord doesn't take his eyes off Mechius...
LG: Three partners to Trip's one...I can't stand to watch this..
Styles: It was okay when it was two to Fly's none...
LG: Yeah..it was...
Gokuo throws off the headset then runs under the cage before it is lowered to the ground.
Styles: Folks...my broadcast colleague Lord Gokuo has left our announce position and gotten into the ring, and seems to be arguing with the ref...
After a few more words are exchanged, LG extends on of his arms, and the referee attaches the device that was left over onto LG's wrist, the crowd pops. LG takes his place in the remaining cage on Hunter's side, then soon the bell rings, officially starting the match.
Styles: The match is on...LG is replacing the Minister as one of Triple H's partners...Triple H starting off with a series of right hands...whips Flyboy to the ropes...backbodydrop...kick to the back follow-up...rams a knee in the back of Flyboy....pick up...scoop and a slam...Triple H starting out with same basic offense... *Triple H puts Flyboy into an arm bar, Flyboy reverses, reaches underneath and pulls it into a pin..1..Kick out*
Styles: Already a pin fall attempt by Flyboy but we all know that isn't going to work. Flyboy is going to have to try alot harder to defeat Trip..Flyboy and Trip are back up, Flyboy with a hard closeline on HHH but he's back up..another closeline by Flyboy, Trip is back up, Flyboy again with a closeline but Triple H counters with a Neckbreaker!..Triple H is up..He starts to kick at Flyboy. Flyboy is using his first partner!
*Elite exits his cell and clubs Triple H from behind knocking him to the mat. Flyboy gets up and Elite and him stomp away on Triple H. They pick him up and sent him into the ropes..both with kicks to the mid section and then a double DDT!*
Styles: Oh! Triple H just let LG in! LG with a spear on Flyboy, and now he is giving Flyboy lefts and rights! Elite goes to help but his time is up and he is shocked! Elite is retreating to his box. Triple H gets up slowly as LG gets up and walks back over to his cell. Triple H kicks Flyboy in the head and picks him up, exicuting a nice Suplex. Triple H bounces off the ropes and hits a Knee Drop onto Flyboy's skull! He goes for the pin..1..2..Flyboy kicks out!
*Triple H gets up and grabs Flyboy by his hair..he runs and throws him into the cell wall. Triple H grabs Flyboy and pulls him back into the ring, throwing him into the other cell wall. Triple H grabs Flyboy and tries to throw him into the steel stairs but Flyboy reverse, sending Triple H into the stairs. Triple H is crawling to his feet as Flyboy slowly stumbles toward him. Triple H gets up just as Flyboy hits a drop kick sending Triple H face first into the steel pole. Triple H calls in Crusifix*
Styles: Now Crusifix is in the ring! He rolls out of the ring and attacks Flyboy. Flyboy and Crusifix start to fight. Flyboy is callin in Cyrus now! Cyrus runs off the ropes and does a spring board over the top rope onto both men. Cyrus gets up slowly and is hit with a fore arm by Triple H. Triple H rolls back into the ring and waits for the men on the outside to get up. Cyrus gets up slowly only to be attacked by Crusifix. Flyboy helps Cyrus out but Triple H runs and hits a base ball slide on Flyboy, sending him into the cage wall. Crusifix's time ends and he is shocked. He rolls into the ring and gets into his cage.
*Shortly there after Cyrus's time runs out and he returns to his cage. Flyboy and Triple H battle it out on the out side of the ring. Flyboy drops to one knee and hits a low blow on Triple H. Triple H drops down and Flyboy grabs him by his hair and starts to slam it into the cage door. He then starts to rack his face acrossed the cage wall. Triple H is busted open.*
Styles: Triple H is bleeding now! His forehead has been opened like a ripe melon! Flyboy rolls Triple H back into the ring and hits a few punches to the fore head. Flyboy then runs into the ropes and hits a swift leg drop. He goes for the pin..1..2...Triple H kicks out!
*Flyboy picks up Triple H and hits a body slam. Flyboy then walks to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs it. Flyboy goes for a Swanton bomb But Triple H moves out of the way! Flyboy and Triple H are now lying in the ring. Both them activate their last person at the same time. Overlord and Mechius enter the ring*
Styles: Uh oh...Overlord attacks Mechius right off, laying in a few punches. Mechius grabs Overlord by the neck and starts to choke the life out of him. Overlord hits a knee on Mechius and then bounces off the ropes. Overlord goes for a cross body but Mechius catches him and hits a fall away slam. Flyboy and Triple H get slightly dazed...Mechius off the ropes..Double Closeline!! He knocked down Flyboy and Triple H! *The time runs out on both men and Mechius is shocked very very baddly. Mechius falls against the ropes and Overlord crawls back into his cage. Flyboy and Triple H get up and both hit a drop kick on Mechius sending him over the top rope and into the cage wall. With that done the walls of the cage are now elecrified.*
Styles: Dear god! The walls of the cage have how become electric! Mechius can't move, he's been turned into an electric magnet!. Triple H and Flyboy now turn back to eachother, laying in with punches. Flyboy hits a knee to Triple H's gut..grabs him..sets him up for the Fly Down..FLYDOWN!! He goes for the pin..1..2..3 NO KICKED OUT! OHMYGOD HE KICKED OUT!
*Flyboy starts to yell at the ref as he picks up Triple H..Triple H hits a low blow on Flyboy..Sets him up..PEDIGREE!!*
Styles: TRIPLE H HAS THIS WON!..1..2...3 NOOO!!! FLYBOY KICKS OUT!..BOTH THEM ARE DOWN BUT DAMN! THEY HAVE KILLED EACHOTHER!..Triple H is getting up...Now flyboy is getting up..Triple H is leaning on the ropes..Flyboy bounces off the ropes and closelines Triple H and himself over the rope...Flyboy picks up Triple H..He going to ram him face first into the cage wall..NO!

We have a new champion!! His name is Triple H!!!
*Everyone is allowed out of their cages and Mechius is finally freed of his electricution though he just sort of lays there. Cyrus and Elite shake their heads and leave the ring. LG shaking hands with Triple H and leaving the ring for commentary*
Styles: Overlord is shaking Triple H's hand now..And Crucifix is just leaving because he knows that Triple H is going to be his target shortly..welcome back LG!
LG: Thanks! I knew my good friend Triple H could do it..Just needed a little help from your's truely. Yeah..
Styles: WHAT THE HELL!?
LG: DAMN IT!
*Back in the ring Overlord has Kicked Triple H and DDTed him. Overlord exits the ring and gets a chair. He rolls back into the ring. LG takes off his head set and runs back into the ring. LG is laid out by Overlord with the chair*
Styles: NO! OVERLORD WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? LG JUST GOT NAILED WITH THAT CHAIR..Now..NO!..Triple H just got hit in the face with the chair! Overlord is gloating with his chair! He is leaving the ring!..

Winner of Holy Wars Match >>> Crucifix of the Wasted Youth Crew.
Crucifix gets the win on Mechius, and "The Revenant" Shaed Bloodgrave, who was watching from ringside, gets in the ring, and extends a congratulatory handshake to Crucifix, the crowd begins to cheer.
LG: I'll be damned...Shaed's a helluva sport, he wants to shake with the new #1 contender...
Crucifix tentatively begins to extent his own hand to the former three-time World Champion, but instead spins around, his back to Shaed, and vaults over the ropes to the floor, next to Sinister and Booker Tatum...and chases them to the back as the crowd boos them.
Shaed looks a bit disappointed...
Damian, who is standing outside of the ring, looking surprisinglly well despite his earlier beatings- suddenly grins ferally, and summons the entire Neo-Horde--who come out through a nearby dark portal: Viscera, Mideon, Kaye, Sasori, Ryokami, and a shivering, scared Ariel.
With Shaed's back turned...
Impromptu Handicap AAA Confrontation
Ryokami springs at the at the unaware Shaed, a large axe in hand as the cell begins to raise...Shaed turns around just it in time to block it somewhat, but the force knocks him off his feet. Damian directs a concentrated blast of ice crystals at Shaed, freezing him in a block of ice. With some quick hand motions, Damian tears the cage apart easily, and with a bright flash, transforms it into a solid steel block that encases the block of ice completely.
The Pyre, Mideon, and Viscera block the Red Tooth and Claw members at ringside, but Connelly vaults into action, his body surrounds with a red aura and he flies at Damian shoulder-first, but before he can get in to attack, Damian spins around and releases a burst of energy from his right palm...striking Connelly in the abdomen and launching him backward past the other wrestlers at ringside and onto the ramp, nearly crashing into a row of fans.
Rik, although he cannot get through, realizes this fight isn't going to be restrained, surrounds the ring in a protective psychic barrier that is actually visible to the naked eye, to protect the crowds from the warrior's battle.
Ryokami grabs the steel "icebox", leaps with it onto the top rope, and jumps backwards and Superjackhammers it through the ring. A few seconds later a cry of "KOKU EN TO KEN!!" reverbs from the steel block, and Shaed slices through the ice and steel with a Black Fire Sword Fist--he jumps out of the hole and lands on his feet. Then puts down Ryokami with a Hawk's Phantom, kicking backwards and leaving Ryokami flat on his back...
Damian fires a flaming fireball...Shaed yells "KOKU EN KYU!!" and fires a black fireball the catches the other fireball it's tracks exploding in the spot where the two meet.
With a shout of "BASHOKOTAI!!" Shaed position shifts behind Damian, throw him up in the air, position shifts behind him, and back suplexes him in the center of the ring, sending earthquake-like tremors throughout the arena and collapsing it from the inside out, knocking Ryokami back-first into the barrier.
while this is going on, Morrigan and Brisby are in limbo, altering the spell...
Damian summons the Sentient Artifact Chaos Scythe from a portal...which appears from behind Shaed, and spins at him, slicing him in the back...Ryokami then charges in, takes the Chaos Scythe, and attempts to slice Shaed's throat, Shaed steps short steps backward as Ryokami steps in with repeated slice attempts, while Damian begins to charge up for a spell...
"May the vital energies of the Spirit be my feast! SOUL CRUSHER!" Damian shouts as an etheral tentacle bursts out of the palm of his outstretched hand, grabbing Shaed from behind, and wrapping itself around his waist. A golden aura surrounds Shaed, travels along the tentacle, and into Damian's body...
Shaed falls to his knees as the tentacle uncoils itself. It then wraps itself around Ryokami's arm, then a golden aura surrounds Damian, and some of the energy travels along the tentacle and to Ryokami's body before releasing and returning to Damian's palm.
Ryokami begins to unleash the Black Fire Sword Fist, one of Shaed's moves which Damian just transferred to him--one that Shaed avoids using because of it's capacity to kill--beginning the battle cry with "KOKU EN--
When Sonnette Breaks through! She blows past the slow and dimwitted Mideon and Viscera, and knocking Ryokami away from Shaed, but Damien threatens to unleash the spell on Ariel (Who he brought ringside when he teleported in the Horde.) However, when he checks on it, he notices it being tampered with- and is about to cast it, when Sonnette plows into him with a Sonnette Spin!
That gives Brisby a few critical seconds, but not enough to totally defuse the spell- which Damien casts...
In short, the defused spell has a lesser, much more benign result:
Ariel, since having been summoned ringside witht he rest of the Neo-Horde, has climbed up on top of the commentator's table to jump up and down, cheering Shaed and the others on.
The transformation is triggered, magic erupting over her form. She stops, clutching her chest. She then collapses to her knees and screams in agony, as her ears enlarge and elongate, becoming cat-like. She then she collapses off the table and roll up into a fetl ball, a tail sprouting out the back of her dress, Her hands spasming as claws sprout from her fingertips, and breakign out of the toes of her shoes. She shreams, looking skyward, her visible teeth growing into fangs, her tear-filled eye's pupils change from round to vertical. She hugs herself as finally light brown fur sprouts from her skin, covering her and her new tail, as she finally passes out fromt eh stress of the transformation.
Damien looks at this in shock, then frustration. "Goddessdammit, that's not supposed to be what happened!"
Scorpion's Pyre immediately turns on Damian, breaking through Mideon and Viscera on their way to attack Damian...Damian responds by summoning two Chaos Demons...who immediately jump at Kaye and Sasori...the Demons are unable to do much other then keep the Pyre busy, but after summoning the Demons Damian sinks down to one knee, grabbing his arm in pain, and beginning to breath rapidly...but yells out orders for Ryokami to keep attacking Shaed...
Impromptu Tornado AAA Confrontation
The fight continues quickly and bizarrely- Signifigantly weakened from Damien's Spell, Shaed barelly manages to hold his own against Ryokami- and eventually, Ryokami makes it though his guard, ready to strike.-
At which point, Sonnette breaks off her rapid-fire attack on Damien, to force Ryokami off Shaed. However, this leaves her completely open to a Chaos Blast Damien looses, nailing her perfectlly, causing her to collapse to the ground.
Damien grins, moving over Sonnette, grinning ferally, while Ryokami continues his attacks on Shaed, both about to do them in, when the mysterious girl sitting in the front row literally leaps into action! She immediately attacks Damien with her Sakaba sword (a katana with the bladed side reversed, so it's basically like a wicked clubbing weapon.)
Ryokami, seeing this become 3 against one, sees this as a perfect moment to turn on Damien, racing over and slamming the rising would-be-tyrant back tot eh ground,a dn sneering over him.
Damien, in a rage, acts somewhat Rash:
"I Don't Care *who* you are, but Mark my words, you'll die this day!" Damien Snarls, moving his hands unto an upraised position. "I call for retribution against the Justice and Light! May the ultimate power run black with evil and smite the Holy!" he chants, a flaming Pentagram erupting under his feet, as a Black ball of energy erupts above his hands. Almost everyone who recognizes what he's doing reacts in horror... With a feral snarl, Damien shouts "BLACK ULTIMA!", Flinging the ball of dark energy at the quartet standing in the ring.... Which if it hit, woudl easilly level the entire stadium.
Before it reaches them, Sonnnette makes a move faster than anyone can see, appearing to summon something into her hands as she races to intercept, a brief bright flash seen before disappearing in a black explosion...
...That seems to simply disipate. As it down, a Blazing figure is revealed: Super Sonnette, her glowing form almost pure in contrast to the evil it intercepted... of course, Foxx would disagree: She's nude, the heat having burned off her clothes. She stares down at her Nephew. "I don't think so." She says, Her Red eyes blazing in anger.
Damien Doesn't hesitate: a rapid chant, and "SOUL CRUSHER!" The etherial tentacle wraps around the surprised Sonentte, who howls in anger, then pain, as the energy is drained from her body... However, the sheer power of it is too much for the spell, as it explodes...
But it's enough. Damien laughes at his Aunt as the energy he drained from her takes effect, his own fur blazing yellow, but blood-red streaks shooting though it: his clothes explode of him both under the heat the his expanding quills: His wing grow larger and gain seratted edges, the tip of his leonine tail becoming Mace-like.
Morrigan and Brisby arrive at this time, and take steps to sheild the crowd from this battle of the titans: There's no way Rik can handle this himself... Instead, he teleport Shaed, Ryokami, and the cloaked figure, Kamenko out of the ring, to protect them...
The fight is blazinglly fast, far too quick for the human eye to follow, a Yellow and a yellow-red blur slamming into each other at incredible speeds, sending shockwaves though the arena...
Finally, the fight ends when Damien and Sonnette impact while moving at the speed of light: Physics literally breaks in a goddawful explosion.
Morrigan, stretched to her limits, manages to contain this, and Brisby manages to recover Sonnette... Damien, however, he says he can't sense anymore... Dissipated in the apparent explosion
Kamenko steps back... looking to everyone in the ring and outside of it as she sheathes her Sakaba sword... then she turns to Shaed and to Code Red. She then pulls down the hood of her cloak... then slips off the porcelain mask... and the black stocking covering her face... to reveal... Oseiko Kurotsuki!!!
Rik, who'd raced over to the enhausted Sonnette to check up on her, glances up from her briefly, to look in shock at the unveiled Oseiko.
The cameras can't pick up the sound, but those who can read lips see her speak out to Shaed... "... Tadaima, minna-san..."
Code Red stands shocked for a moment, mouth agape...then runs over to Oseiko and throws his arms around her...and buries his head in her shoulder, beginning to cry yet again...holding on tight, and hoping to God THIS isn't a dream...
Oseiko blinks... then giggles softly, throwing her arms around Code Red tightly as "Voices" cues up over the PA. Shaed goes to join in hugging Oseiko... a recovered (and furry) Ariel leaps to hug Oseiko to0, as does Kaye and Lilith...
The Neo-Horde has since disappeared...hopefully for good. However, Mideon has since signed with the World Wrestling Federation again...and if P.I.G and H.O.G weren't already worthy of Wrestlecrap, Mid is destined to be a multi-time wrestlecrap inductee with his new "streaker" gimmick....
Yes...if you missed Raw, you DID read that correctly...
Fortunately, he was at least wearing a thong...
Booker Purgatory, for writing the Krist Jonsson vs. Mechius "Deanna on a Pole" Match, and for finishing up the Hardcore and World Title Matches.
Krist Jonsson and Paul for some segments...
Kenny and Erik for some of the planning, and Erik for much of the writing of the AAA Match...
