|-x-| The scene opens up on a bright, sunny afternoon in a typical neighborhood. Children are playing in their yards, enjoying the nice weather. Two people are seen walking down the street. These two people are revealed as the Hurricane and his sidekick, Rosey. They are dressed in their normal superhero attire. A young girl runs up to them, crying. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “What’s that?! A tear trickling down your face? What’s wrong, young lady?”
| ‘The Damsel in Distress’ Jenny | “It’s Fuzzy, my kitten. He crawled up that tree over there and now he’s too scared to come down! Please help!”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Of course we will!”
|-x-| The Hurricane turns around and huddles up with Rosey, apparently to whisper something to him. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Rosey, you know how I have been telling you about starting your training? Well, this is a perfect opportunity for your first lesson!”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Me?! You want me to get that cat down? All by myself?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “You can do it, Rosey. I know you can.”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “But... but... I can’t climb very well. And these shoes are awfully slippery... and do you realize how big cat’s teeth are?!”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Rosey, if you truly want to become a superhero like the Hurricane, you must learn to take risks. Look at me, this week on RAW, I am facing three other men in a Hardcore match for the title! But I am heading into this match with my head held high!”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “OK, fine.”
|-x-| Rosey spins around and makes his best superhero pose. |-x-|
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “It’s alright, little lady. Rosey, the Super Hero in Training, is here to help!”
|-x-| The little girl’s face lights up in gratitude as she leads the superheroes to the tree. Once there, Jenny points to the branch where Fuzzy, the kitten, is stuck. |-x-|
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Oh... way up there?”
|-x-| Rosey turns around to look at the Hurricane for encouragement. Hurricane gives the thumbs up as Rosey nods his head. |-x-|
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Don’t worry... that kitten is as good as down!”
|-x-| Rosey begins to climb the trunk of the tree as the others watch on. He struggles, and at one point almost falls, but he keeps on climbing. He gets to the branch and slowly inches out to the frightened kitten. The branch begins to bend with all the weight put on it. Rosey leans forward, but the scared kitten hisses at him. Rosey backs up, releasing the weight, and flinging Fuzzy a few feet into the air. The girl screams as the kitten is airborne. Hurricane quickly runs and catches the kitten before it hits the ground. He hands the kitten to Jenny as she smiles. Meanwhile, Rosey slips and falls down the tree. |-x-|
| ‘The Damsel in Distress’ Jenny | “Oh, thank you so much! What a great plan you two had! I never would have thought about flinging Fuzzy into the air to let the other guy catch him!”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Yeah, neither had I...”
|-x-| Hurricane nudges Rosey, letting him know to be quiet. |-x-|
| ‘The Damsel in Distress’ Jenny | “What can I do to repay you?”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Well, a hamburger does sound good...”
|-x-| Hurricane quickly interrupts Rosey. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Nothing is necessary! For when help is needed, justice will always be served! Just remember to watch your kitten a little closer next time.”
| ‘The Damsel in Distress’ Jenny | “Oh, I will!”
|-x-| Jenny sets Fuzzy down in the grass as the kitten rubs up against Rosey’s leg. Rosey smiles and picks up the little kitten. The kitten hisses once again as Rosey drops it to the ground. Scared once again, it runs back up the same tree and onto the very same branch. Rosey, not wanting to climb up again, quickly glances at his watch. |-x-|
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Man, look at the time! We really must be going!”
|-x-| The Hurricane, not really wanting to get it either, agrees with Rosey. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Time really flies when you’re getting cats down from trees... See you later.”
|-x-| Hurricane and Rosey quickly dart away as Hurricane yells something back... |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Just call the fire department!”

|-x-| The scene opens only a few minutes after the kitten incident. Hurricane and Rosey have found refuge in a forest of some sort. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Now, Rosey, that was good for your first time. But remember not to let your fear get in the way. Superheroes can never be afraid of evil villains. Take me for example, on RAW, I am going into a match where the odds are stacked up against me. I will be facing The Rock, Vic Grimes, and New Jack... all tough competitors. Many would be scared at a time like this, but I am not. I am willing to take a stand against these three bullies. Come RAW, fear will not hold me back... nothing will hold me back.”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “I know, Hurricane. I cannot let my fear get the better of me. But that’s what this training is for, isn’t it?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “That’s exactly right, Rosey. Matter of fact, that is the next step in your training... learning how to overcome your fears.”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “And how am I supposed to do that?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Well, Rosey, when the sun goes down, it will be your job to find your way out of these woods... alone.”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Huh? By myself?!”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Exactly. Rosey, you have nothing to fear except fear itself. On RAW, I will be all alone against three other guys who can use weapons... but I know this is something I must do. Sometimes you must do stuff for yourself, even if it does mean being alone in dark woods.”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “But I get a flashlight, right?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “No, Rosey, no flashlight this time. Soon, Rosey, very soon... you will not need a flashlight. You won’t even need your eyes. All you need is your senses... just like my Hurri-Senses. With that said, Rosey, I must leave you now. I will be waiting on the outside of the woods for you... good luck.”
|-x-| Hurricane darts off as Rosey looks around in all directions. It is obvious that the sun is slowly setting as darkness overcomes us... |-x-|
S C E N E T H R E E
|-x-| It is about an hour later as the Hurricane nervously awaits Rosey. Hurricane is exactly where he said he would be, on the outside of the woods. He paces back and forth as he hears a familiar voice behind him... |-x-|
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “Hurricane? Is that you?!”
|-x-| Hurricane spins around to find Josh Matthews standing behind him. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Yes, Citizen Matthews, it is I, the Hurricane!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “I heard somebody say that you were out here... er, what are you doing?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “I am waiting for Rosey to complete today’s training lesson... what are you doing?”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “Well, I was told to find somebody in the Hardcore match on RAW to get an interview with... and when I heard you were out here, I came right away.”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “OK... well, I don’t see Rosey coming, so let’s get this interview over with!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “Alright. First of all, what kind of opportunity do you have in this match?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Citizen Matthews, I have said it before and I will say it once again... there is no doubt that this is a chance of a lifetime. Not only do I have a chance to win the Hardcore Title, but I also have the chance to prove myself once and for all. I will prove that I am not some geek in a weird costume... I will prove that size doesn’t matter... and I will prove that I can hang with the big boys like the Rock. But for once, people will actual look at the Hurricane and say ‘He’s our champion.’ They can actual look at me and be proud to support the Hurricane. You see, Josh, those that I have helped know that my powers are real. But it’s time for those that haven’t needed my help to realize that I am for real.”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “It sounds like this means a lot to you, Hurricane.”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “It does, Josh, it really does. I am tired of people looking down on me, doubting my abilities. I am just as capable of winning matches as The Rock or even Randy Orton. And I will prove this once and for all tomorrow night on RAW.”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “How are you planning to do this? What weapon will you use?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Weapon?! The Hurricane does not need weapons. Why, you might ask? Well, it’s because I got my Hurri-Powers... BEEEOTCH!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “Heh, heh. Talking about overcoming the odds, this Sunday is the Royal Rumble. What do you plan on doing at it?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “I’m not exactly sure, Citizen Matthews. I would very much love to be apart of the 30 man rumble, but the spots are going fast. Also, I have threw out a challenge to the current Cruiserweight Champion, Scotty 2 Hotty. He has not yet accepted but we’ll see what he has to say after I win the Hardcore Title tomorrow night!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “What do you think about your opponents? We’ll start with Vic Grimes...”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Vic Grimes? Well, I don’t really know a lot about Citizen Grimes, but he can be sure that on RAW, there will be a hurricane ripping through and he won’t be left standing!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “OK... what about New Jack?”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “New Jack seems to be keeping a low profile before the big match so I’m not sure what he’s thinking. But I know what I’m thinking, and I’m thinking that New Jack will be shocked when I, the Hurricane, beat him and those other two with nothing but my Hurri-Powers!”
| ‘GWF Interviewer’ Josh Matthews | “And lastly, what about the Rock? Earlier today, Rock apparently didn‘t think too much of you. He said he isn‘t worried about you and your Hurri-Powers...”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “The Rock isn’t worried about the Hurricane... WHASSUP WIT DAT?! Rocky, haven’t you been listening for the past week about what I’ve been saying? I am not going in to this match to just put up a fight... you see, I am going in to win. Rock, you are no different from any other opponent I have ever faced... you all underestimate me. Well, just wait until RAW when I am the only one standing with the Hardcore Title resting on my shoulder... then just maybe, maybe you will be a little more concerned the next time we face each other. Rock, you are being too blinded by Hollywood to realize what it really going on in the streets, much less in the GWF ring. But come RAW, Rock will no longer be blinded by Hollywood, but he will be blinded by the hurricane as it sweeps him off his feet. Rock, talk a walk outside once. As the time for the start of RAW dwindles away, the weather is getting worse. It’s becoming darker, a lot darker. The heavy clouds have begun to gather and soon, very soon, the rain will begin to fall. It will start off as just a few drops, but believe me, it will get worse, much worse. The thunder will sound as lightning illuminates the black sky. And at last, the hurricane, which has been brewing on the coast, will rip through the cities, including the GWF. And nothing and nobody will be left untouched until the Hurricane is left standing with the Hardcore title in his hand.”
|-x-| Just as the Hurricane stops talking, a rustling is heard as Rosey emerges from the trees. Rosey’s face is covered in dirt, his shirt ripped, as he stumbles out. |-x-|
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Hurricane! I made it!”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Yes, Rosey, and you did it all by yourself! Now, how do you feel?”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “Hungry...”
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “Fine. We’ll stop at McDonald’s on the way back. But do you feel yourself overcoming your fears?”
| ‘The S.H.I.T.’ Rosey | “I feel my stomach rumbling...”
|-x-| The Hurricane nods his head in disapproval as he looks back at Josh. |-x-|
| ‘The Superhero’ Hurricane | “This is going to take awhile...”
