Tap...tap...tap

That's the sound of the gavel.

Court is in session, will you all rise?

If you don't, I can promise you that things are going to get mighty difficult for you.

That's the rules of Wonderland. If you don't play along, you don't get anywhere.

Unfortunately, you walked in on the middle of Wonderland's proceedings. When you last saw me, I was prosecuting Havoc and Inferna...unfortunately, you missed out on a lot.

I push for them cold heartedly, as of my own trial...one I went through while I flatlined. Here it is...for your viewing pleasure.

The proceedings may begin.

Inferna: Good morning, Shawn Collins, Your Honour,
I will plainly show,
The prisoner who now stands before you,
Was caught red-handed showing feelings.
Showing feelings of an almost inhuman nature.
This will not do.
Call the teacher!

Grady Smith: I always said he'd come to no good,
In the end, Your Honour.
If they'd let me have my way,
I could have flayed him into shape.
But my hands were tied.
The bleeding hearts and artists,
Let him get away with murder.
Let me hammer him today.

Crazy.
Toys in the attic, I am crazy.
Truly gone fishing.
They must have taken my marbles away.

Crazy.
Toys in the attic, he is crazy.

Helena:You little shit, you're in it now.
I hope they throw away the key.
You should've talked to me more often than you did.
But no! You had to go your own way.
Have you broken any homes up lately?
Just five minutes, Worm, Your Honour,
Him and me alone.

Bridget Collins:Baaaaaabe!
Come to Mother, baby.
Let me hold you in my arms.
M'Lord, I never meant for him to get in any trouble.
Why'd he ever have to leave me?
Worm, Your Honour, let me take him home.

Crazy.
Over the rainbow, I am crazy.
Bars in the window.
There must have been a door there in the wall.
For when I came in.

Crazy.
Over the rainbow, he is crazy.

Shawn Collins: The evidence before the court is incontravertible.
There's no need for the jury to retire.
In all my years of judging I have never heard before,
Of someone more deserving of the full penalty of the law.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite girlfriend and mother,
Fills me with the urge to deficate!
No, Judge, the jury!
Since, my friend, you have revealed your deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers.
Tear down the wall!

I am about to face my deepest fear. Throughout all of this, I have been stripped down to nothing, and now? I have to go through the misery of it all...to be helpless to stop the events of the evening. I am alone and scared...and I am a martyr.

*Show us what we want to see!*

[The scene comes back to Phoenix and Storm's locker room. The door opens... revealing the prone form of Jonathan Storm. He has been literally crucified, his arms have been tied apart, hanging him from the rafters of the room. His body is covered in even more blood then before; every one of his cuts have been aggravated to bleed more. His head is down, and his face is almost white, he’s lots a lot of blood, however is he still breathing, albiet shallowly. As the camera zooms in closer, we see that there are six words written in blood across Storm's forehead...]

ALL HAIL THE KING OF VIOLENCE

*And there he sits...alone in cell. Wrapped up in chains, he sits there and thinks.*

Jonathan Storm: Court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today, just my own sin...
The walls cold and pale, the cage made of steel
Screams fill the room, alone I drop and kneel...

So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
That only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one.

*Storm sits down, his knees against his body, and his head on his knees. He keeps rocking, and we fade out.*

Well, that was amusing, no?

I am a prisoner of my own sins. The beasts I've created, the monsters I let out of Pandora's Box...I've been forced to place back in. You can't blame me for any of this...I'm trying to clean it up.

And I'll do more than just tear down the wall.

I'll demolish the two people trying to hold it up.
