Dark Match
Bareback Jack vs. Joe Foale

[Foale came out first, alone, without any sort of response from the fans. After him, came Bareback Jack and Hotrodder, who played to the fans, getting them riled up before the show can officially start.]

[During the course of the match, Joe Foale would be dominated by Jack, who used his newfound "cowboy-style" to defeat Joe Foale, last hitting him with the NFR Ride to Foale, knocking him silly. Rolling Joe up, Jack easily gets the 1, 2, 3 and he and Hotrodder celebrate in the center of the ring, proud of their first Sin Wrestling victory.]

Winner: Bareback Jack

[The scene opens up in the backstage area, with Corey Page looking over a flurry of papers, having both Gabriel Reno and Benjamin K. in front of his desk, slamming their fists down on his desk. Frantically searching through the papers, Corey is again taken aback when Gabriel Reno slams his fist down...]

Gabriel Reno: I want some damn answers and I want in that match. That opposite camera angle showed that I was screwed!

Corey Page: Well...

Benjamin K.: No "wells", no "ands", and no "buts". Gabriel, my new protege, should be in that match; he was screwed, I was screwed -- everyone was screwed.

Corey Page: Right. So, uh...

Benjamin K.: And we're not going to take "No" for an answer!

Corey Page: Yes, so...

Benjamin K.: Gabriel Reno should be in that match; I don't care what you say!

[Dropping his files down, an annoyed Corey Page rolls his eyes and speaks up.]

Corey Page: Look, Mister Metrosexual...

Benjamin K.: Huh?!

Corey Page: Errr... Mister K., if that's your real name; I agree with you. After reviewing all of the tapes and hearing all of the backstage ramblings, I'll gladly place Gabriel Reno in that gauntlet match.

[Overjoyed, Gabriel Reno and Benjamin K. slap each other's hand.]

Gabriel Reno: Tonight, I'll win that battle royal and I'll come into the right last. I'll be sure it happens.

[Hearing this, Corey pipes in...]

Corey Page: Uhh.. no. I didn't say that you'll be in the battle royal for tonight. You'll be in the gauntlet match, which is at Illusions. Tonight, however, you have to face a special opponent... someone who is "Classic"... someone who is "Creepy"... you have to face "The Creep" Chris Carson, an old buddy of mine. Good luck and have fun!

Gabriel Reno: Whoa, whoa, whoa; wait! So, what number do I enter the gauntlet match with?!

Corey Page: Well, that all depends on the person who you're replacing -- Cryst. If she wins, you're the last person to enter. If she's the first out... well, you'll be the first to enter. Nice, hey?

[Looking flustered thanks to not having his fate in his hands, Gabriel Reno is held back by Benjamin K., who decides to speak on behalf of his talent.]

Benjamin K.: That'd be fine; thank you.

[Side-by-side, Benjamin K. and Gabriel Reno walk out of Corey's office, allowing the owner to go back to work.]

Battle Royal
Destiny Daniels vs. Romeo Jenkins vs. Cryst vs. Scar vs. Nathan Gray vs. Luke Wolf

[The order of entrances into the ring starts like this: Romeo Jenkins, Luke Wolf and Cryst come down together, thus officially starting Impulse. Grabbing the microphone, Romeo goes to cut a promo, but is cut-off when Nathan Gray's music hits and Nathan comes out, staring hard at the NCV members, who don't back down. Rolling inside, Nathan shows no fear in stepping inside with No Ca$h Value, as he keeps both eyes locked tightly on them. Once he gets inside, though, Romeo goes to speak...]

Romeo Jenkins: Yo...

[...However, Romeo is again cut-off. This time by Destiny Daniels' music, leading her to the ring. Not long behind her is Scar, who as everyone saw last week, has shown interest in her. First, Destiny slides into the ring, with Scar following inside. When she backs up, looking at her opponents across the ring, Destiny bangs into Scar, who she did not notice was following behind her. Startled, she takes her place in her own corner, while Romeo can finally speak into the microphone.]

Romeo Jenkins: Finally, I can speak!

[The fans jeer the No Ca$h Value member.]

Romeo Jenkins: A'ight, I'm just goin' to keep this short'n'sweet. Firs' off, ring tha' bell.

[Heeding Romeo's words, the bell is rung by the timekeeper.]

Romeo Jenkins: Second... screw this shit; I'm outta here.

[Much to the surprise of everyone, Romeo backs towards the ropes and hops to the floor, landing on the floor with both of his feet, officially eliminating himself from the match.]

Romeo Jenkins: Yeah, that's right; you heard me.

[Dropping the microphone on the floor, Romeo retreats to the back, leaving everyone inside of the ring.]

Elimination 2:
[Confused, Luke Wolf watches Romeo walk to the back, unaware that Destiny Daniels is sneaking up behind him. Without warning, Luke Wolf is struck with a dropkick that not only sends him over the top rope, but has him landing on the floor, as well.]

[Awestruck, Luke stands to his feet, amazed at what has just happened, while Destiny glares down at him, smirking at his loss. However, he has the last laugh when Cryst charges at Destiny, extending her arm and...]

Elimination 3:
[...Being backdropped over the top rope and onto Luke Wolf on the floor. Back-to-back, Destiny eliminates the two No Ca$h Value members, laughing at their expense. Meanwhile, Luke Wolf and Cryst throw a fit on the floor, having no idea what to do or say.]

Elimination 4:
[Celebrating her recent eliminations, Destiny turns around, only to walk right into a running big boot to the face from Nathan Gray, which tosses her to the floor, forcing her to land at the feet of Cryst and Luke Wolf, who are escorted to the back.]

Elimination 5:
[Furious at Destiny's elimination, Scar sprints forward and attacks athan Gray from behind. Trying to throw Gray to the floor, his efforts are thwarted when Nathan strikes back with some knees and elbows of his own, which take Scar off-guard. Stumbling back, Scar cannot fight his away from a release belly-to-back suplex from Nathan Gray that sends him hard on the mat.]

[Scurrying to his feet, Scar desperately fights off any attacks from Nathan Gray, trying to avenge Destiny's elimination. After striking Gray with a lowblow, Scar piledrives Nathan, gets up to his feet and ascends to the top rope, which is an uncharacteristic position for Scar. Apparently going for a flying splash, Scar is stopped halfway up by Nathan Gray, who kips-up to his feet, charges into the corner and swiftly strikes Scar with the Milligram Smile; a swift superkick to the jaw.]

[Tumbling from the top rope, onto the side of the apron and then onto the floor, Scar is the final elimination in this match, which bares witness to Nathan coming out as the victor, thus earning himself the final spot in next Monday's pay per view match. Having his hand held high in the air by the referee, Nathan Gray watches an annoyed Scar walk to the back, trying to shake off the feeling of being hit with Nathan's finishing maneuver.]

Winner: Nathan Gray

[The decked-out Nazimobile pulls up to the arena, its bass bumping some fresh, hot Nazi tunes and the Nazi-door swings wide open. Stepping out, wearing his new leather Nazi-pants, Chris Extreme hobbles around the back of his automobile and pops the trunk, revealing the casket from last week's Impulse. Humming to himself, he drags it out, sets it on the ground and cracks his knuckles, grinning wildly at what's to come...]

Chris Extreme: Here he is...

[Bending over, he pulls the lid of the casket open, revealing the inside...]

Chris Extreme: Uh, where is he?

[Inside of the casket, there is nothing but air. The body of Chris Carson, who was supposed to be inside of it, is nowhere to be found. Scratching the back of his bald head, Chris is befuddled, not knowing what has happened to Chris Carson, his nemesis.]

Chris Extreme: Uh... well then... I, uh... hmm...

[He grabs a random passer-by, shakes him and questions him.]

Chris Extreme: Did you steal Chris Carson?!

[Shaking his head - no - the passer-by plucks himself away from Chris Extreme and races off. Pumping his fist into the palm of his hand, Chris turns and walks away, entering the arena.]

Chris Extreme: I'll find that damn bastard.

[He enters via the arena door. Fade out.]

Singles Match
Hotrodder vs. Ignatius Satanica

[Both Hotrodder and Bareback Jack are out first, where they watch Ignatius Satanica make his entrance to the tune of of "Colorblind" by Chroma Key. Once Ignatius enters, one of the co-kidnappers of Lord Nirvana, Bareback Jack, exits the ring, allowing for Ignatius to stare down Hotrodder.] [Ignatius uses his strength and size to psyche Hotrodder out, eventually causing the cowboy to try and tag out to Bareback Jack, who, incidentally, is not involved in this match. When Hotrodder retreats, Ignatius grabs hold of his tights, stopping him from moving anywhere, resulting him him being able to yank Hotrodder back. When the cowboy turns around, he walks right into a sidewalk slam from Ignatius, who instantly gets up to his feet and tries to stomp away at the fallen SCPA member.]

[Halfway through the match, Ignatius picks Hotrodder up, kicks him against the ropes and whips him out. Upon Hotrodder's return, Ignatius ducks down, looking for a backdrop, only to receive two kicks to the face and a slew of chops from the cowboy. After a headbutt and some uppercuts, Hotrodder floors Ignatius with a DDT, dropping him on his head. He goes for a cover, but can only get to the count of two.]

[Both Hotrodder and Bareback show frustration at the lack of a pinfall, which sees Hotrodder continue to beat on Ignatius. After having an Irish-whip reversed, Hotrodder is sent into the ropes yet again; this time ducking underneath a back elbow shot by Ignatius. Ducking beneath this elbow shot, Hotrodder continues toward the opposite set of ropes, where he stops himself, turns around and views Ignatius steamrolling towards him. Ducking below another clothesline attempt, Hotrodder rolls through and up to his feet, allowing Ignatius to bounce off the ropes. When he returns, though, Bareback Jack reaches out, hooks onto Ignatius' right foot, tripping him.]

[After landing flat on his face, Ignatius rises up, glares out at Bareback Jack, who acts innocent, allowing Hotrodder to storm up behind him and schoolboy-roll him up. Having Ignatius' legs bucked-up into his chest, Hotrodder sits on Ignatius and makes the cover...]

[...1...2...3!]

[Stealing a victory, Hotrodder immediately hops out of the ring and lands on the floor next to Bareback Jack, who also celebrates Hotrodder's win. In the ring, Ignatius gets to his feet, showing signs of amazement and anger, obviously pissed about his loss.]

Winner: Hotrodder

Newcomer Match
Cole Devon Oliver vs. Davey Bellringer vs. John Finnberg vs. Romeo Damascus

[After a brief pause in action, Cole Devon Oliver makes his way out, headed towards the ringside area, where Romeo Damascus is already waiting. Wasting no time, Romeo instantly jumps Cole Devon Oliver before his two other opponents can even come down to the ringside area.]

[After some kicks and stomps, Romeo plucks Cole off the mat, whips him into the ropes and catching him with a spin wheel kick upon his return. Headed towards Cole's feet, Romeo hooks on to both of his legs and goes to apply a Boston Carb, while Davey Bellringer notices the action in the ring, thus forcing him tp sprint to the ring.]

[Sliding inside, Davey disrupts Romeo's technical hold, forcing Romeo to release Cole's feet and focus on Davey Bellringer, who immediately knocks Romeo down with a spear. Showing some unorthodox moves, Davey hits Romeo with some punches and follows up by tickling him. Yep, Davey Bellringer is sitting on top of Romeo Damascus, tickling him, trying to get him to tap. Unfortunately for Davey's sake, Romeo is not tickling; allowing him to use his left leg to knee the back of Davey's head.]

[Finally, the fourth and final member of the match comes out, decked out in a coal-black dress. Slowly walking to the ring, John "Core" Finnberg rolls inside, where he instantly confronts Romeo Damascus, striking him with some knees and kicks, soon sending Romeo out to the side of the apron with a backdrop. Still on the apron, Romeo is soon knocked off by Finnberg, who bounces off the furthest set of ropes and returns with his move that he calls the Twin Daggers, knocking Romeo to the floor.]

[His attention soon turns toward Davey Bellringer, who gets to his knees and headbutts John Finnberg in the gut, hoping to take him out with a snap suplex; but to no avail. Springing right back up, Finnberg shows much resilience by leaping back up to his feet and latches onto Davey's head, taking him down with a hurricanrana.]

[While all of this action unfolds, Cole is able to get to his feet, which is unfortunate considering John Finnberg soon relays his path of domination onto him. After chopping Cole against the ropes, he whips him across the ring, only to see Cole springboard off the top rope and dive back with a moonsault press. Seeing this, Finnberg ducks down, thus causing Cole to land on Davey, who was trying to climb back to his feet.]

[Meanwhile, on the floor, Romeo Damascus goes to re-enter, but is taken aback when John Finnberg climbs to the top rope. Wasting absolutely zero time, John Finnberg somersaults off the top-rope, hoping to crash hard on Romeo, who wisely side-steps the diving attack. Both men remain on the floor, where they trade barbs with each other, just as Davey and Cole battle in the ring.]

[In here, Davey tries to take out Cole's high-flying ability, focusing on his knees and legs, kicking and stomping at them. Whipping Cole into the corner, he goes to follow in with a charging-shoulderblock to the gut, but Cole wisely springs himself into the air, allowing him to sunset-flip up-and-over Davey, attempting a cover...]

[...1...2...]

[Fortunately for everyone else's sake, Romeo Damascus is able to slide back inside and stop the count with a shining-wizard to Cole's head. He goes for a cover of his own...]

[...1...2...]

[Luckily, Davey gets to his feet and quickly connects with a corkscrew-eblowdrop to Romeo's neck, stopping the count. All three men continue to mix things up, until John Finnberg makes his appearance, standing back on the side of the apron. When Davey goes for a back-suplex onto Cole, Finnberg takes note, springboards into the ring and connects with a legdrop to the falling Cole Devon Oliver.]

[Feeling as if Finnberg stole his thunder, Davey Bellringer grabs him by his longer hair, knees him in the face a few times, staggering him and pulls him in with a standing headscissors. Going for a piledriver, he is unable to complete the move because Romeo Damascus charges at him with a clothesline. Ducking underneath this brazen attempt, Davey pushes Finnberg to the ground, turns around and focuses on Romeo, applying his half-nelson sleeper onto him.]

[Sensing a chance at victory, John Finnberg stands to his feet and begins to unload on both Davey Bellringer and Romeo Damascus with a series of kicks that he calls "The Cat of Nine Tails", even though Davey Bellringer retains his half-nelson sleeper hold on Romeo Damascus. Culiminating with a final leaping roundhouse spin-kick to Romeo's head, John's foot sends so much pressure into Romeo's chest that it causes the duo to fall through the ropes and onto the floor, leaving only Cole and Finnberg inside.]

[Realizing John Finnberg has his back turned, Cole Devon Oliver leaps up and goes to attack him from behind; but the attack is sense by Finnberg, who whips his body around. Stopping Cole's motion forward, Finnberg kicks him in the gut, positions both hands around Cole's throat and lifts him off the ground. Slamming him forward, John Finnberg hits the "Bittersweet Descent", crosses Cole's arms above his head and makes the cover...]

[...1...2...3!]

[Without further adieu, John Finnberg makes a perfect debut, while Romeo Damascus and Davey Bellringer remain on the floor, stunned at their loss. Cole Devon Oliver, on the other hand, well... he's still reeling from being dropped on the back of his head. Displaying his dress to the crowd, John Finnberg smiles coyly, hops to the floor and walks to the back.]

Winner: John Finnberg

[There is a cut to the backstage area, where we see Khristian Call sitting down on one of the wooden benches in the locker room. He holds a rolled up ball of white athletic tape in his hand, slowly starting to roll it around his left wrist. He doesn't seem to notice, but the resident interviewer, Ace Rodgers, has entered the room, and is standing only a few feet away from him. Ace has a microphone in his hand, appearing ready to ask the difficult question, as always. Khristian still doesn't seem to notice, and if he did, then he doesn't care.]

Ace Rodgers: I'm backstage here with Khristian Call, who will take part in an upcoming Triple Threat match, which puts himself in the ring against Adam Navarro and Dark Thorn. Khristian, what are your thoughts on the match up?

[Khristian stops rolling the tape around his wrist, the left one completely covered now. He looks up towards Rodgers, green eyes poking out between strands of dirty blonde hair. He doesn't say anything; instead, he just opts for starting to tape up his right wrist. Rodgers appears to be confused, but presses on, undeterred.]

Ace Rodgers: Umm, Mr. Call? I was wondering if you could tell me what your gameplan is for your match up? What are you going to do differently tonight in order to get your first victory?

[Call stops halfway up his right wrist, now, slowly standing to his feet. He looks at Ace strangely, as if he were speaking a foreign language.]

Khristian Call: First victory, huh? Did you see last week? I owned every single one of those people in the ring. Destiny Daniels may have gotten the win, but not one of those people had what it took to step toe to toe with me and take me out. Within fifteen seconds, I took them all out. Destiny capitalized, she got the victory on paper. That's all there is to it.

[Khristian continues to glare at Rodgers, who tries his best not to back down from the competitor, who might not be as big as some of the guys, but can be just as imposing.]

Ace Rodgers: Nevertheless, you're facing Navarro again, but Dark Thorn is someone you haven't seen in the ring. Any particular plan for keeping him down, and securing a win in your column?

[Khristian Call rests his hands to his side, slowly cracking his neck to the right before finally nodding his head.]

Khristian Call: Yeah... I have a plan. Beat the crap out of him, just like I did with Titan 3, just like I did with Destiny Daniels. Adam Navarro wants some more? I've got no problem with that, either. Now...if you would just be on your way, I think I've said enough.

[Ace Rodgers gives a nod as Khristian turns back around and sits down on the bench, going back to what he was doing before Ace interrupted him. Ace turns to the camera and finishes up the interview.]

Ace Rodgers: Well, guys, you heard Khristian. His plan is to, and I quote, 'beat the crap', out of Adam Navarro and Dark Thorn. We'll see if it all works out for him. Back to you guys in the arena...

[Fade out.]

Triple Threat Match
Khristian Call vs. Dark Thorn vs. Adam Navarro

[The first down to the ring was Adam Navarro, who, while resting in the corner, was attacked by a fan that slides into the ring, wearing a "Raziel" shirt. For the first-time on camera tonight, this man makes his appearance by striking Adam Navarro with a vicious running forearm that nearly took his head right off. When the time is right, the man with the "Raziel" marked shirt superkicks Adam Navarro, knocking him flat on his back.]

[Seconds later, the ring is flooded with officials that retain Raziel, forcing him over the ring railing and back into the fans, allowing for the match to officially get underway. With Adam Navarro out of the match, Khristian Call would be the first competitor down, followed by Dark Thorn, who's fresh off his Platinum Title shot loss.]

[Right off the bat, Khristian Call dominates Dark Thorn, striking him down with some very hard-shots. After a series of kicks and forearms, Khristian Call hits some suplexes, including a repeated Northern Lights Suplex, which Dark Thorn ends up in a pinfall predicament.]

[...1...2...]

[After kicking out, Dark Thorn receives some more brutal blows from Khristian Call, including some harsh bionic elbows to the neck; the same region that Khristian decides to work on for the rest of the match. Locking in some neck-wrenches and vices, Khristian is sure to wear Thorn down, not wanting him to get to his feet.]

[Blocking some attempts at a tap-out, though, Dark Thorn is able to rise and hotshot Khristian Call across the top rope. When he bounces back, Khristian is lifted up into an electric chair position by Dark Thorn, who holds him there for several seconds. Realizing his location, Khristian pops back to reality and starts bashing his right fist into Thorn's skull and pushes forward, using his momentum to victory roll Dark Thorn. Holding both legs down, Khristian looks for the three...]

[...1...2...3!]

[Caught off-guard, Dark Thorn is unable to kickout, thus Khristian Call is granted the victory. Hopping to his feet, Khristian can't celebrate for too long, as the man who made his appearance before the match -- the man with "Raziel" on his shirt -- leaps over the ring railing, passes security and quickly enters the ring. In here, he stares down Khristian Call, who doesn't like having his heat stolen from him.]

[Throwing a fist at Raziel, Khristian has the fist blocked, in favor of a punch from Raziel, who wants to make a big impact by taking out yet another newcomer. The two men brawl, but security and officials soon burst into the ring and seperate each man, trying to stop the chaos.]

Winner: Khristian Call

[Corey Page is seated at his desk, playing some sort of handheld game, not noticing that someone is approaching his office door.]

Squeeeak

[Upon hearing the creek of the door, Corey stuffs his game under his desk. Shuffling through some papers, he tries to make himself look busy, but to no avail. Suddenly, a rather large shadow dawns on him and he looks up. Here, he views the image of Priest, who has a sneer on his face, bending over and grabbing Corey by the collar.]

Priest: I was screwed in that match last week.

Corey Page: [gulping] Yes, yes you were. By that Jenkins guy, who quit the company not too long ago. But that's fine!

Priest: Is it, Page? Is it?

Corey Page: It is! Know why? Because I was just about to book you into the Television Title Contendership Match! That's right, you'll be gunning for the chance to win that title.

[Overhearing Corey's statements, Priest officially smiles, which is a sight to behold. Gently placing Corey back in his seat, he straightens himself up and nods his head.]

Priest: I like the way you think, Mr. Page.

[Standing fully up to his feet, Priest adjusts himself and walks off, his shadow trailing off Corey Page's desk. As soon as he can, Corey rises his handheld game back up and returns to... uh... playing with himself.]

Singles Match
Priest vs. Seth Dryden

[This match starts out slowly, with both members looking for a way to strike without the other retaliating; especially Seth Dryden, who is overshadowed by Priest, who has just found his way into possible TV Title contendership. Finding an opening in Priest's large legs, Seth moves in for the kill, striking him with two kicks to the thight, followed up by several punches by the boxing and martial-arts master.]

[Flooring Priest, Seth keeps him down with stomps, hoping not to have the big man up to his feet, where he could probably cause much damage. Wincing off the pain, Priest struggles to return to a more upright position, using his power to get to a kneeling position. Not liking this, the NCV member returns to kicking and stomping at Priest, which Seth can only get a couple of shots in until Priest grabs his right foot, keeping Seth on one leg.]

[Finally able to stand, Priest gets to two feet, ducks underneath an enziguiri attempt by Seth Dryden, and release wheelbarrow suplexes him. Holding his head, Seth rolls around in pain, while Priest goes to work, turning the tables on Seth; delivering some outstanding front and crescent kicks to his chest. Picking Seth up onto his shoulders with a standing fireman's carry, Priest storms into the opposite corner, squashes Seth's head against the top turnbuckle, spins around and Death Valley Drivers him. He goes for a cover, but before anything major can occurm Seth places his right foot on the bottom rope.]

[Rightfully disgruntled, Priest lifts Seth up and goes to powerbomb him; but Seth Dryden slip out, landing behind him. When Priest turns around, Seth goes for a standing roundhouse kick; however, Priest ducks it, reaches around to Seth's throat and chokeslams him with his move called "The Death From Above".]

[Having Seth Dryden easily laid out, Priest picks him up, turns him upside down and seconds later, hits his finishing move, The Priest Driver Driver. Covering the NCV member, Priest hooks a leg...]

[...1...2...3!]

[Getting redemption over the NCV, Priest stands to his feet, looks down at the fallen Seth Dryden, steps over the ring rope and exits to the back.]

Winner: Priest

[Yet another shadow looms over Corey Page, who is sitting at his desk, doing "busy-work". Peering up, he views the figure of Ignatius Satanica, who has his arms crossed, looking like things are serious business. Taking out a stack of papers, Corey rolls his eyes and starts to say something to Ignatius.]

Corey Page: So... I guess you want to be added to the TV Title Contendership match, too?

[Ignatius nods his head.]

Corey Page: Fine, fine.

[Without saying a word, Ignatius is added to the pay per view matchup and Corey goes back to his "work". Exeunt.]

Singles Match
Flame vs. Heather Halliwell

[An explosion of fire goes off at the entrance and former Sin Wrestling president, Flame, makes his way out, holding a microphone in his hands. Rolling into the ring, he motions for his music to cut-out and holds the microphone up, looking rather angry. Hearing the fans cheer him on, he begins to talk...]

Flame: Last week, something happened... something I didn't particularly like. Yeah, I was attacked from behind...

[The fans boo at the mention of that.]

Flame: I don't know who did it and why... but goddamnit, I want to find out tonight. So, whoever it was, get the hell out here!

[Demanding answers, Flame patiently awaits his attacker in the center of the ring. As the first strings of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana begin to play, the arena dims so that only red and purple light is glowing on the ramp and ring. When the drum beat starts, pyro comes out, and Heather Halliweel comes out through it. She poses with her arms up on the stage, holding a microphone in her right hand.]

Heather Halliwell: If you really want to know, Flamey... it was me. Yes, that's right; it was me who bashed you upside the head. It was me that knocked you unconscious. It was me who put you flat on your face. Why, you ask? Because I wanted easy access to your whore of a girlfriend, who took away my chances of winning the Platinum Title; that's why! And then... I heard about you having a shot at the Ultraviolence Title, a clause that you put into your own contract awhile back. After hearing that... I just couldn't resist!

[Shaking his head, Flame picks up the microphone, about ready to "Flame" up.]

Flame: Well then. How about that?!

[Angered, Flame drops the microphone and chases out after Heather Halliwell, who doesn't back down from Flame. Together, these two start the match near the entrance, with Flame striking Heather upside the head several times with some disastrous punches. Smacking her head off the ring railing, Flame drags her to the ringside area by her hair and throws her in, climbing up onto the side of the apron to continue the match.]

[Climbing to the top turnbuckle, he dives off, trying to hit aflying shoulderblock. Seeing this, Heather steps out of the way, having no problems with watching Flame land face-first onto the canvas. Unloading with some lethal kicks to Flame's body, Heather backs him into the corner and goes to sit him on the top rope. Backing up, she charges forward, rolls, and leaps up, hitting him with a leaping European uppercut.]

[Springboard up, she goes for a top-rope leaping hurricanrana, only to have Flame stop the motion of it. Jumping off, he gives her a flying powerbomb, which drives her back-first hard on the mat. Thinking quickly, he drapes his body across Heather's...]

[...1...2...]

[Despite the cover, Heather kicks out. Disappointed, Flame picks her up and decides to take control of the match even further, whipping her into the corner, bouncing off the ropes and storming back with a single-handed bulldog.]

[Opting to not go for another cover, Flame grabs Heather by the hair, lifts her up and kneelifts her, snapping her head back. Continuing to hit her with back-to-back snap suplexes, Flame tries for a Sharpshooter, which is evaded by Heather -- thanks to her striking him with a throat thrust, which causes Flame to stumble back.]

[Schoolboy rolling Flame up, she goes for the three-count...]

[...1...]

[Quite easily, Flame kicks out, continuing the match. When the duo rises, it's Flame who goes back on the advantage, striking her with a quick palm thrust. Positioning her between his legs, he hoists her up into a powerbomb position, which he quickly converts into a standing fireman's carry. Taking a step forward, he drops her onto the mat with the Flame Bomb. Laying his back across Heather, he makes the cover...]

[...1...2...3!]

[However, not long after the count is made, the Ultraviolence Title contender is attacked by newcomer, The Souljah, who slides into the ring and furiously unloads some Muay Thai kicks to Flame, who tries to fight back, but to no avail -- as another attacker makes his way into the scene.]

[Angel Felicity, another newcomer to Sin Wrestling, also makes his presence known, attacking all others inside of the ring, wanting to make his debut before the Illusions pay per view. Standing over Flame, he makes a challenge for the Ultraviolence Title shot and then escapes to the back... looking rather familiar, in the process.]

Winner: Flame

[The camera zooms in on an image of a title -- one-half of the Sin Wrestling Tag Team Titles, to be precise. It's wrapped snugly around its owner's -- Cyber Troopers -- waist, while the other half is being held up in Cyber Trooper's right hand. The other half, of course, belongs to former Ultraviolence Champ, Aphrodisia, who had it stolen from her by Cyber Trooper, who has taken an affinity to the title. Caressing and cleansing it with a towel, he breathes onto the gold, admiring himself in the reflection.]

Cyber Trooper: You're a good little belt. You deserve to be around the waist of a superhero; not a filthy, disgusting tramp. I won you and I'll keep you, thank you very much! As far as I'm concerned, neither of you are going away from me -- at least not for any time soon.

[He continues to speak to the titles as if he they were actual human beings.]

Cyber Trooper: Hell... err... heck; superheroes don't say "hell". Whoops.

[He covers his mouth.]

Cyber Trooper: You guys look even better than some of my friends! You're not bald like Chris Extreme... and you're not black like Dontam Dyce! You guys are just peachy.

[After admiring himself one last time, he wraps the other half of the title around his waist.]

Cyber Trooper: ...And to think you used to be around Aphrodisia's waist... yuck! What a vile, filthy bitch.

[Having the title snapped around his waist, he adjusts himself and the camera fades out, last showing Cyber Trooper smiling whole-heartedly.]

Singles Match
Allisa O'Toole vs. Michael Raymond Dux

[The bell rings signaling the beginning of the match and the pair immediately lock up. Allisa O’Toole breaks it up with a knee to the gut of Dux. Allisa follows up with a low blow, which remains unnoticed by the referee who’s too busy checking out his nails. Keeping the advantage, Allisa places Dux in a headlock and brings his head crashing into the mat with a massive DDT.]

[While Dux is laying on the mat trying to hold his head and his nuts at the same time, Allisa quickly climbs up to the top turnbuckle and lands a Whirling Dervish, her version of a double rotation moonsault. Allisa quickly gets to her feet, once more, and forces Dux to his feet as she yanks on his hair. Putting an end to Dux’s humiliation, Allisa successfully executes Fluid Perfection, a reverse Hurricanrana for the pin and the 3 count.]

[Resting for a moment, Allisa O’Toole allows Dux to get up to his feet before she walks up behind him and pulls down his pants. Allisa spanks his round, feminine looking ass a few times before allowing him to display his leopard print thong to the world, leaving everyone to wonder if Dux is actually a man or a woman…or both.]

Winner: Allisa O'Toole

[Bling bling. Chris Extreme struts down the hallway, sporting his white boxers, barefeet, and his swastika tattooed chest. He has a bottle of cough syrup in his right hand, which he chugs down. ]

Chris Extreme: Hmmm, I don't have a match, yet again. This is suspicious.

[Out of thin air, Corey Page appears, with Kitty Extreme holding his hand.]

Corey Page: Oh hey, Chris, you are being fined.

Chris Extreme: What?! Why?

Corey Page: Because you are violating Sin Wrestling's dress code.

Chris Extreme: Since when did Sin Wrestling have a dress code?!

Corey Page: Since me instituting this five seconds ago.

Chris Extreme: That is absurd! You didn't even warn me ahead of time; you can't fine me!

Corey Page: Yes I can.

Chris Extreme: This is fucking racist!

Corey Page: Oh yeah, and if you don't win at Illusions, I'm terminating your contract... if that is, The Creep doesn't kill you first.

Chris Extreme: You are a tyrant.

Corey Page: If I was a tyrant, would I be going into the men's bathroom to fuck your little sister right now?

Chris Extreme: ...

[At that, Corey Page and Kitty Extreme disappear into the men's bathroom, with Kitty looking awfully horny.]

Singles Match
Chris Carson vs. Gabriel Reno

[First out is Chris Carson, who enters the ring, much to the joy and happiness of the fans.]

[The moment Gabriel Reno enters the ring, he is greeted with a baseball-slide dropkick from Chris Carson. Chris grabs Reno by the hair, forcing him to his feet only to send him back down with The C.C. Bomb, sit-out powerbomb. Carson follows up with several boots to his opponent’s face until the referee encourages him to stop. He takes a few steps back, allowing Gabriel Reno to pull himself up to his feet.]

[Reno staggers over to Carson who sends a boot to his gut and sets him up in a headlock for a DDT but Reno counters, throwing several fists into Carson’s stomach making him release the hold. He then crashes Chris Carson’s head into the mat with a DDT of his own.]

[Chris Carson quickly shakes it off and leaps to his feet, grabbing Reno’s arm and sending him into the ropes. Reno comes bouncing back and receives a Scissor Kick causing him to drop to the mat once more. Hoping to keep up the advantage, Chris Carson grabs Reno’s hair and tries to pry him off the mat only to receive a low blow that was well hidden from the ref. As Carson recovers, Gabriel Reno gets up to his feet and whips Carson toward the ropes.]

[An overzealous Benjamin K. hops on the ring apron and delivers a fist to the back of Chris Carson’s head as he comes to bounce off the ropes. The ref turns around just in time to see this and calls for the bell immediately.]

[While Benjamin K. rushes into the ring to give the ref some choice words, Gabriel Reno begins pummeling away on Chris Carson. His manager turns to see this and goes to join in on the fun, bringing Chris Carson down to the mat with a clothesline. The two then begin kicking their downed opponent.]

[Chris Extreme is seen making his way down to the ring, pushing a casket on a gourney down with him. Shaking his head at the display in the ring, Extreme opens the casket and pulls out a steel chair and slides into the ring. He quickly chases-off Gabriel Reno and his manager, soon turning his attention to Chris Carson, bashing him over the head with the chair, knocking him back into the corner.]

[He grabs Chris Carson’s hair and sets him up for the “Power Trip” powerbomb, which he executes successfully. Extreme throws Carson over his shoulder and walks over to the ropes. He throws his opponent at Illusions over the rope and into the casket. Extreme quickly hops out of the ring and closes the casket on Chris Carson, flipping a latch to keep him secured inside. Chris Extreme wheels the casket back up the ramp and into the backstage area, snickering heinously at Chris Carson's expense.]

Winner: Chris Carson

Allisa O'Toole: I'll bake you my cookies, if you'll come around the world with me.

[In the backstage area, KIP was walking down the corridor when he heard the soft whisper in his ear. He turned around to have a steel bar flash in front of his eyes before it hit him hard in his right shoulder. Reeling backwards, he rests into the wall holding his arm to see Allisa O'Toole grinning with her eyes glazed over from drink, or drugs... or just adrenaline. It was hard to tell.]

Allisa O'Toole: Would have been the face, but us divas have to protect our looks, don't we?

[She strides forward and takes a snap jab to her jaw. She looks astounded as KIP fights back. The next thing she knows is that she has to dodge a full force 'Experience' which would have taken her head off. Swiftly, she swings the steel bar and lifts it into his groin, grounding him instantly. Taking the bar, she rolls KIP onto his front and raises the bar over her head.]

Allisa O'Toole: They didn't have to pay me to do this.

[She brought the bar down over his calf.]

Allisa O'Toole: I suggested it.

[A second shot goes over his thigh.

Allisa O'Toole: Because I wanted to make an entrance. Perhaps it's not their style.

[Two shots to the lower back...]

Allisa O'Toole: But it's definitely mine.

[She unleashes several blows with the end of the bar down into his back and then into his stomach when he rolled over.]

Allisa O'Toole: I'll be expecting your company as soon as you can stand.

[She drops the bar and kicks him in the chest.]

Allisa O'Toole: They say payback's a bitch... And after what I've done to you... I expect you to kill me.

[She laughs as she starts to walk off.]

Allisa O'Toole: Just make sure you kill me fully.

[KIP struggles onto his feet and glares at Allisa until she turns a corner.]

Tag Team Match
Patrick Casey/KIP vs. Shane Clemmens/Caleb McInnis

[Already inside of the ring, Patrick Casey and KIP wait for the arrival of their opponents, No Ca$h Value members, Shane Clemmens and Caleb McInnis. When the music hits, they come out, with Shane Clemmens trailing behind Caleb McInnis, who slides into the ring, not wasting a second's chance in attacking Casey or KIP. Standing on the floor, Clemmens observes his ally attacking both men, knocking KIP to the floor with a clothesline.]

[Remaining on the floor, Clemmens walks over to KIP and unloads a flurry of punches and kicks onto him; eventually even bashing his skull off the steel ring post. Showing some cuts, scratches and bruises from last week, Shane directs Caleb in the ring, telling him to beat down Patrick Casey, which Caleb is quick to oblige.]

[When Caleb whips Patrick Casey chest-first into the turnbuckles, Caleb follows in with a running forearm to the back of Patrick's neck, not only stunning his spinal column, but also spiking his head face-first into the top turnbuckle. From here, Caleb wraps his arms around Patrick's waist, lifts him up and gives him a triple German suplex. On his fourth attempt, he releases Patrick, causing Patrick Casey to land head-first onto the canvas, which soon seens Caleb sit on Casey's chest, pummeling his face with fist-after-fist.]

[Leaving Patrick Casey's face a bloody mess, Caleb McInnis eventually pulls his opponent up to his feet, while Shane Clemmens lifts KIP up on the floor, draping him across the steel ring railing with a front suplex. While Shane strikes KIP with a Shoot to Thrill kick, knocking KIP into the front row of the fans, Caleb McInnis forces a reddened and bruised Patrick Casey to his feet and drops him with the "Ether", driving Patrick Casey's face-first onto the ground.]

[Rolling atop of Patrick, Caleb hooks a leg, while Shane maintains the outside portion of the ring...]

[...1...2...3!]

[Gaining an easy victory, Shane claps his hands, grabs his Ultraviolence Title and rolls inside of the ring, greeting Caleb.]

Winner: Caleb McInnis/Shane Clemmens

[After their victory, Shane Clemmens and Caleb McInnis stand in the ring, holding their arms high in the air, proud of their win. Unfortunately, the No Ca$h Value members cannot react in time to "The GFF" David Dunn, who is sliding into the ring behind both men, brandishing a cement tombstone in his hands. Charging up behind Caleb, he strikes him across the back of his head, knocking him face-first onto the mat, leaving him knocked silly.]

[Shane Clemmens, on the other hand, turns around and walks right into the cement block that connects upside the front of his head. Falling into a heap on the mat, bloodstains run down from the wound on Shane's place, which was originally created last week, in his match against Aphrodisia. Walking over to the corner of the ring, David Dunn quickly grabs the microphone and stands over the Ultraviolence Champion...]

David Dunn: Shane Clemmens, you metrosexual faggot, on Halloween night, I'm going to give you the beating that I've been wanting to give to you for the longest while. But for now... I'll leave you with this...

[The tombstone whichs reads...]

Shane Clemmens
1980-2005

[...is held into the air by David Dunn, who drops the microphone and is about to proceed forward when he notices Seth Dryden running towards the ring, carrying a steel chair. Dropping down, David Dunn wisely escapes from the other NCV member and rolls out of the ring, still carrying the tombstone. Stepping over the ring railing, David Dunn makes his escape through the fans, as Seth Dryden helps both Caleb McInnis and Shane Clemmens rise to their feet inside of the ring.]

Six-Man Tag Team Match
Tony Millennia/Aphrodisia/Hecate vs. Sean Graves/Nikita/Cyber Trooper

[Sean Graves, Nikita and Cyber Trooper are out first; with Cyber Trooper following sluggishly behind the other two, not really wanting to be there. Having both Tag Team Titles, Cyber Trooper hands them over to the ring announcer and slides into the ring, standing next to Sean Graves and Nikita; but yet keeps his distance.]

[Out next, of course, is Tony Millennia, Hecate and Aphrodisia, in that order. Like Cyber Trooper, Aphrodisia is maintaining her distance, watching coldly at Tony and Hecate enter the ring, where they glare at their opponents.]

[With all four combatants for the Illusions main event, including their partners, inside of the ring, everyone prepares for the ringing of the bell; with Tony Millennia and Cyber Trooper starting things off. Right off the bat, both men throw a fist at each other; but ironically, they hit each other at the same time, knocking themselves to the canvas.]

[Standing right back up again, two-of-the-four individuals who'll be in a Hell in a Cell at Illusions, hook-up, with Tony applying a side-headlock. Backing Tony into the ropes, Cyber Trooper wastes little time in shoving him off, resulting in Tony being thrown across the ring. Coincidentally, upon his return, he brings Cyber Trooper down with a shoulderblock and goes for an elbowdrop; only to have the Tag Team Champion roll out of the way.]

[Crawling to his side, Cyber Trooper cowardly tags out to Nikita, who leaps into the ring, staring at her on-again/off-again partner, Tony Millennia. The duo go to attack each other; but they step back and tag out to someone else; Tony to Hecate and Nikita to Sean Graves.]

[Entering the ring, the possible future World Champion, Sean Graves has no problems with attacking Hecate; going all-out, kicking her into the corner and butting her with some punches. Whipping her out, he even drops her on her back with a high backdrop, seconding that with a kneedrop to her face. When he goes to deliver another kneedrop -- this time from the second rope -- she is able to move, and his knee crashes onto the canvas.]

[Rolling up to her feet, Hecate is able to go on the attack on Graves, her nemesis; striking him with a baseball-slide dropkick to the side of his head. Lifting him up to his feet, things go on a downward spiral after she DDTs him onto the canvas, rolls over and tags in a feisty Aphrodisia, who is ready and willing to get her claws on anyone and anything.]

[...Oddly, enough, she passes right by Sean Graves... err... well... she uses his back as a springboard to launch herself at Cyber Trooper with a dropkick, that is. Knocking her enemy off the side of the apron, Aphrodisia turns towards Nikita, slaps her across the face and knocks her down, as well. Leaping up to the top turnbuckle, Aphrodisia crossbody planchas out onto Cyber Trooper, knocking him up against the railing, unable to hold her.]

[With no one in the ring for his team, Tony Millennia re-enters, grabs Sean Graves by his longer hair and repeatedly knees him in the face. Backing him into the corner with some forearms, Tony leaves Sean in the corner, where he is struck with some charging shoulderblocks to the gut. Whipping him across the ring and into the opposite corner, Tony charges in, hoping to strike a running knee to Sean's gut; only to hit nothing but the middle turnbuckle.]

[Luckily for Sean Graves, he was able to roll to his left, jump up to his feet and see that there is no one there to tag out to. Angrily turning around, he misses Nikita climbing back up onto the apron, meeting Tony, who happily takes him down with an STO. Tony goes for a cover...]

[...1...2...]

[Nikita springboards off the top rope and connects with a flying stomp to the back of Tony's head, knocking him off Sean Graves. Startled by this attack, he leaps to his feet, hooks Nikita by the throat and backs her into the corner, threatening to punch her. Before anything can happen, though, Sean Graves regains his wits, crawls up behind Tony and lowblows him.]

[Grabbing Tony's hair, Sean throws him over the top rope and onto the floor, having Tony land harshly on his face, allowing Nikita to stumble out from the corner. Unfortunately, this aligns them up perfectly for Aphrodisia, who leaps onto the apron, springboards off the top rope and flying dropkicks both Sean Graves and Nikita, sending them sprawling to the floor, as well; having them both take a spot next to Tony Millennia.]

[As Aphrodisia stands in the ring, staring blankly at her opponents -- and allies on the floor -- she is brazenly attacked from behind by Cyber Trooper, who shows no signs in letting up in inflicting misery on her and her life. Picking her up, he gives her a back-suplex into a backbreaker and goes for a cover...]

[...1...2...]

[Much like Nikita before her, Hecate vaults into the ring, hitting a slingshot somersault legdrop across Cyber Trooper's neck, disrupting the count. Pulling him up to a standing position, she chops him into the corner, only to have Cyber Trooper block a punch from and throws her into the corner, instead.]

[Winding up, he strikes her across the bridge of her nose, wraps his arms around her waist and sits her on the top turnbuckle. Climbing up to the second rope, Cyber Trooper places her on his shoulders with a standing fireman's carry. Before he can drop back, though, Aphrodisia storms up behind them, springs off the middle rope and contorts her body, enabling her to slide through Cyber Trooper's legs, sunset-flip powerbomb him to the mat, while he Samoan Drops Hecate. Jack-knifing Cyber Trooper's legs, while putting her own two feet on the middle rope, Aphrodisia tries to redeem her last from last week by scoring the victory for her team...]

[...1...2...]

[Seeing this, Sean Graves rushes into the corner, shoves her legs off the ropes, thus giving Cyber Trooper the strength to kick out. Enraged, Aphrodisia rises to her feet and stares out at Sean Graves, who retaliates by leaping up onto the apron, grabbing Aphrodisia by the head, choking her across the top rope. In an ironic twist of fate, Tony Millennia tries to make the save, but he is kicked off by his enemy, Sean Graves. For the second time in a row, Tony tries to yank Sean off; but this time he is apprehended by Nikita, who tackles Tony to the side, pushing him up against the steel post.]

[Having his attention piqued by Nikita and Tony, Sean allows Aphrodisia to slip out of his clutches, shoulderblock his stomach and guillotine his throat over the top rope, dropping him on the side of the apron. Rolling him back inside, she hits a swinging split-legged moonsault, landing hard on top of him. She goes for a cover...]

[...1...2...]

[But it's blocked by Nikita, who turns away from Tony, rolls into the ring and stomps on the back of Aphrodisia's head. Picking the former World Champion up, Nikita scoops her up and body slams her back onto the mat. Looking into the corner, she charges in, climbs up it and dives off, hitting The Aura onto Aphrodisia. This time, it's her turn to make the cover...]

[...1...2...]

[Nevertheless, Tony Millennia reaches in, grabs Nikita by the hair and pulls her off, discontinuing the count. Lifting her up, with a handful of hair, Tony stares her down and says some disconcerting words to her. Eyeing Sean Graves regaining his foot, Tony diverts his attention away from Nikita and throws a stiff fist at him. The next thing he notices is the ref laying on the mat, out cold. Tony spins around to face Graves who ducked the blow, not giving Tony a moment to react, Sean sets him up in the Grave Digger sending Millennia crashing down into the mat.]

[Knowing the ref isn't conscious to make the count, Sean slides out of the ring and walks towards the announcers table. Seeing this, Nikita slowly steps into the ring and inches her way over to the fallen Tony Millennia. Graves slides back into the ring and hands the chair to his female partner.]

[Nikita holds the chair tightly and looks down at Tony while Sean encourages her to hit her real tag team partner with the chair. It's obvious that Nikita isn't sure what she should do, giving Tony enough time to stagger to his feet. He turns to face her and Nikita swings the chair...]

[...Without enough warning to block it, Sean Graves receives a devestating chairshot directly in his face, dropping him to the mat, causing him to fall right next to the referee, some blood trickling from his forehead. Nikita violently throws the chair on top of The Dark Prince and turns to face Tony before she exits the ring again.]

[Surprised and a little bemused, Tony goes to wake the referee...]

THWACK

[There's another chairshot! This time it's to Tony Millennia; from a recovered Aphrodisia. Holding the chair in her hands, she watches as Hecate rises...]

THWACK

[In an awkward turn of events, she takes out her and Tony's other partner. Waiting for Cyber Trooper to rise, she grasps the chair, swings it at Cyber Trooper's head; only to stop at the last second. Licking her lips, she changes the position of the chairshot and instead lays it on the mat -- behind Cyber Trooper. Kicking the co-holder of the Tag Titles in the gut, she pulls him in with a standing headscissors and flips over him, driving his head down onto the chair with the Femme Fatality piledriver!]

[Before she can make the exit, she watches as Sean Graves scrambles to his feet, trying to regain his wits. Hunching over, she slides the chair out from under Cyber Trooper's head, holds it above her own head and crashes it against Sean Graves'. With all sense knocked out of him, his legs wobble out from underneath him and he collapses onto Tony Millennia, who is still out from the chairshot from earlier.]

[Throwing the dented chair to the floor, Aphrodisia exits the ring and walks to the back, ala Nikita. When the referee finally awakens, he views Sean Graves laying unconscious on Tony Millennia and begins his count...]

[...1......2.........3!]

[The bell rings and Sean Graves and his team are declared winners. Both Graves and Millennia are the first two to move after the bell; with Tony rolling to the floor, retreating to the back, while Sean aides Hecate to her feet. Short-arm clotheslining her, he knocks her on his back and turns to his other partner for tonight, Cyber Trooper. Kicking and stomping on the co-holder of the Tag Team Titles, Sean Graves gets a very mixed reaction from the fans, as he holds his right foot across Cyber Trooper's mouth, choking the life out of future opponent.]

[When the time is right, Sean Graves finally lets go of the hold and walks to the back, as well.]

[The scene opens as Tony Millennia is making his way through the parking lot. He has his duffle bag thrown over his shoulder, and isn't even out of his wrestling attire yet. Sweat still glistens on him after the hard fought Main Event in which he was involved. He takes a workout towel and wipes some of the sweat out of his face as he exits the building and steps out into the parking lot, the camera following him every step of the way. He was used to being under the scrutiny of the SW camera's now after making it known that he was the "AntiStar". It seemed to him that it was their way of trying to throw his success back in his face, after he claimed that he didn't want it. He reaches his car, and pops the trunk, throwing his duffle bag in. A slight clicking sound at the end of the hallway catches his attention, and suddenly the sound of a loud motor ignites somewhere off in the distance. Tony shuts the trunk of his car, and turns to where he sees a bright headlight shine upon him from what seems to be a motorcycle. The person on the back is unrecognizable, the light stealing the sight from anyone staring into it. Tony shields his eyes as he makes his way between the cars, a concerned expression coming over his face. This wasn't coincidence. Nothing in this business is coincidence.]

[And then there was silence. Just as suddenly as the noise disperses, light appears and the bike pulls out, doing a complete 180-degree spin, taking out of the parking area. Tony takes in a deep breath, as he puts his keys in the lock. He opens the door, and begins to slide into the seat when the ticking begins. He stops, and leans closer to the car, a distinct "tick, tick, tick, tick, tick" begins from somewhere on the car. He follows the sound, until finally reaching his hands and knees to see up under the car. There, right in plane sight, he finds the source...]

Tony Millennia: What the...?

[He's up so quickly that he nearly knocks the cameraman out of the way. He makes a quick dash for the end of the parking lot, with the cameraman following suit; having no idea what's the hurry, until...]


BOOM


[A flash of light, a thunderous roar and a blaze of fire later, both the cameraman and Tony are sent sprawling to the floor. The camera angle pans back to catch the site of flames; metal strewn all over the parking lot. Tony Millennia pulls himself up to a seated position and looks back at the wreckage where the explosion decimated his car. He leans forward with his head between his knees, and breathes heavily as if about to go into shock. The sound of boot falls prevent that, however, as the camera pans up on two figures coming towards him. One of the men is huge, and is wearing biker gear, while the other is wearing a white tank top, and baggy skater pants. The large man has in his hands the SW Television Title. Millennia looks at the title wide eyed, as the large man tosses it down at Tony's feet.]

Large Man: I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Press, and this is Youth. Together, we're the BombTrax.

[Millennia's eyes go from shock, to narrowed grimace as he pulls himself up to his feet, taking hold of the TV title as he does so. He stares hard at the two men, and is about to speak, but is cut off by Press.]

Press: We have no use for you, or your title......for now. This was a message from our employer, in which I consider to be delivered quite loudly. The title's his. The quicker you accept it, the easier it will be on all of us. Please, Mr. Millennia, when he arrives, just hand it over..and be done with it. I don't want to keep having this same conversation over and over, so we'll make this our only one. If we have to meet a next time, let me make it clear that it won't be nearly as pleasent as paying for a new rental car. It'll be all about the hospital bills.

[The large man turns to leave, and the younger, much smaller one known as Youth gives a slight smile.]

Youth: Don't take it so hard, Tony. You claim that you're trying to get back to the heart of this competition, and deny yourself the benefits of stardom. Well, this is the perfect opportunity for just that. Drop the TV title. Now you try to have a safe trip home, you hear?

[Youth turns away as well, hopping on the back of the 1998 Harley Fat Boy that pulls up as if right on cue. The harley screams past Millennia and the cameraman, who watches them go. The camera is then turned towards Tony, who is seething in rage. Up to his feet, "The Anti-Star" walks back into the arena, the remnants of his rental car still burning in the darkness, the scene fades to black... then static... and then the Illusions logo.]
