The group suddenly found themselves beset by the hordes of the dead, that had been slowly creeping towards them in the night, the lightning flashes being the only way to see them coming.
Gold: We have trouble approaching.
Faris Angel: Tack, we have to get Christina back!
Lady M's: And Justice.
Bashin: Gold and Hope, help me will you? We'll hold them off. Cade, I don't know what you're doing here, with him, doing this, but we'll get to the bottom of it.
Cade: None of your concern Dan! I'm here for my Father.
Yaggis: Son, what are you doing?
Cade: Not you! I know better now. I know what I am. I know who I am. I'm the villain, and I want to hear from the villain NOW!
Giygas: *sigh* This is a hassle kid. We've got work to do, and you're just killing time until we're over run with the dead. Look, you think that asshole is going to let you live!
Young Christina: Uh oh, he said a bad word. Money in the jar.
Tack Angel: Well, at least she seems alright.
Giygas: Heh, sorry sweetheart, I'll watch the language. Cade, if you don't step aside, we'll have to kick your A-S-S too.
Samael: He's not going anywhere. He wants to see the ultimate death, don't you Cade?
Cade: It's what I was put on this Earth for. I only exist because you failed in 1992. My life had no meaning. I even died once, but Samael brought me back, made it like it never happened. No one cared that I was gone! No one was grateful that I was back. Dan was sanctimonious as always, but he's blind to just how bleak things truly are. I'm going to do what I should have done before, and let "V" wash over us all. To do that Father, we're going to need you to offer it up, the last bit of "V" in this reality.
Giygas: I don't think so, at least, not until you send those children over now.
Trevor Mach: Something we agree on. You hand over Justice Cade. Do the right thing before I knock your teeth down your throat!
Yaggis: No! You can't! He's just-
Trevor Mach: Hang on Doc, we need Giygas right now. I won't kill him, if Justice is unharmed.
Samael: Now why would we kill the children. They can be with their families when the end comes. You'll all die together. As is a common phrase in EBW these days, be grateful. Haha.
Trevor Mach: I've got your gratitude right here.
Samael: Send the wives over. They will collect the children, and then we finish this exchange.
Tack Angel: Hold it! In no way, shape, or form, can we allow this creature to consume the negative energy within this man. I will personally cut you down.
Trevor Mach: Not now Tackleton! Can you give it a couple minutes? Go chop some dead with that sick scythe of yours or something.
Samael: You brought the real Star Prince back for this? Pulling out all the stops Azrael. Fine, I know you have no intention of handing over. Let's just cut the shi-
Young Christina: *cough*
Samael: Heh...let's cut to the chase. Death vs. Death. It's where it's been heading right?
Trevor Mach: That's why I came back.
Samael: Cade, hold the children, and back away, this is between us.
Faris Angel: No!
Lady M's: Get back here you little punk!
Samael: Mingle with the dead Cade, they won't hurt you or the children. Can't say the same for M's and Faris though. Haha.
Trevor Mach: They can take care of themselves.
Samael: You whole family is in danger Azrael. It must be killing you.
Trevor Mach: No, but I'll be killing you.
Samael: You can't. How do you even plan on it?
Giygas: Let's beat him into a puddle of blood and guts, and start from there.
Tack Angel: How horrible, but justified.
Trevor Mach: You heard em. Hit it!
Trevor, Tack, and Giygas rushed forward, in a head on collision with Death itself, as M's and Faris chased after Cade through the dead, and Dan, Gold, and Hope tried to fight off the gathering masses. Trevor swung at Samael, who pushed him back, his bat colliding with the scythe of the Star Prince, as Giygas attempt to raise the ground beneath him, only for Samael to elbow him down to the ground, and attempt to gouge out not only his eyes, but the essence of "V" within.
Samael: Give me that strand Giygas, or I'll rip it out of you!
Giygas: I'll pass.
Giygas managed to lift the ground under Samael and break himself free.
Giygas: Still not strong enough. You two pick up my slack already.
Trevor Mach: Heh, I'm just warming up.
Trevor's eyes began to glow, as ethereal wings sprouted from his back. Samael copied the motion.
Samael: Anything you can do, I can do better. Look at the wonderful colors.
Trevor Mach: I'm color blind bitch.
Tack Angel: Wait....what?!
Trevor Mach: Go!
Mach ran up to Samael and tried to hit the Knee Trigger, but Death back away and created a scythe, which Mach narrowly avoided. Tack brought back his scythe and collided with Samael, while Giygas whispered something to Mach. As Tack and Samael collided, Giygas lifted the ground beneath Mach, and pushed him towards Samael for a hard Knee Trigger that sent Samael into a cliff wall. Samael burst out and began to levitate.
Giygas: This is your cue Mach. Bring him back down to Earth.
Trevor Mach: Count on it.
Trevor flew into the air and grappled with Samael in the sky as lightning struck around them.
Meanwhile, Bashin Dan was helping Hope and Gold, by slicing down the dead with Benjamin's sword.
Hope Mach: How are you so good with that sword?
Bashin Dan: I got a lot of practice in the future.
Hope Mach: What?
Bashin Dan: One of those long stories I've got. Hey, look over there.
Hope Mach: Mom and Faris are having trouble. Cade is breaking away. Go cut him off.
Bashin Dan: Are you sure?
Gold: We can handle them.
Hope Mach: Please Dan, save my brother.
Dan nodded and ran through the hordes, slashing, and slicing his way through. He noticed they were turning to dust as they were slain, reminding him that they were no more than conjured monsters, and nothing to feel sorry over.
He cut off Cade, buying time for M's and Faris to catch up behind him.
Cade: Well, we both knew it would come to this didn't we?
Bashin Dan: No Cade, this is your doing. All I want is to save my friend. I didn't expect you to-
Cade: He brought me back, when you let me die.
Bashin Dan: I'm remembering it better, every single day, it comes to be clearer and clearer. I wanted to stay there with you, fight and die together if it came to that. You told us to leave. You saved me and Hope. You saved so many people that day. I wish you could remember. He's tainted your memory!
Cade: You think so? You think I don't remember? Watching you get on that boat with Hope and those people you didn't even know, leaving me to get annihilated by "V"? I remember. I'll never forget, unlike you.
Lady M's: You little punk, you want to settle this with Dan, you do that, but you give me my son, or I'll rip you apart.
Faris Angel: Absolutely. Christina, come here baby.
Cade: Heh...they're actually safer with me. They won't harm me. But fine, you take them.
Cade released Christina's hand, and she ran to Faris. Cade then handed Justice to Dan.
Cade: Give him to M's over there would you? I don't feel like getting too close to her right now.
Lady M's: Smartest idea you've had all day you little shit.
Dan held Justice and handed him gently to M's, before turning around to see Cade back into the approaching dead.
Bashin Dan: Come back here!
Faris Angel: Dan, where are you going?
Bashin Dan: I have to save him!
Lady M's: He doesn't seem to want saved!
Bashin Dan: We stand by family, no matter what.
Lady M's: *sigh* Good luck kid. Let's go.

The storm continued to swirl and erupt in the night sky. Tack Angel and Giygas stood at the cliff side watching as the flashes of light illuminated the sky enough to see the two sides of Death colliding in the air.
Giygas: Huh....it's weird to root for Mach.
Tack Angel: Well stop rooting and come up with a plan. We can't leave this up to him.
Giygas; Hmmm...you're absolutely right. Get ready.
Tack Angel: For what?
Giygas waved his arms up and towards the fighting, as the ground beneath Tack blasted upwards, sending him with all the momentum of a missile towards the fighting. Trevor was holding off a scythe attack with his bat.
Samael: You could've helped me fulfill our purpose of ultimate death. We could have erased the story. Now, you'll just have to die knowing I'll finish the job.
Trevor Mach: Heh.
Samael: Laughing at your oblivion Azrael?
Trevor Mach: No. Just admiring the shooting star behind you.
Samael: What?
Tack Angel: HOOOOOLY SHIIII-
Tack collided into Samael, and used his scythe to knock away Samael's scythe. Trevor caught Tack and flew back down to Giygas, as they watch Samael get sent into another cliff side.
Tack Angel: You could have warned me!
Giygas: That....would not have been as much fun.
Yaggis: Stop playing around!
Trevor Mach: It's weird watching you talk to yourself like that.
Tack Angel: Is that what I've been looking like?
Trevor Mach: Meh...kinda?
Giygas: I don't like it anymore than you do. Are we going to do this or what?
Tack Angel: Do what?
Trevor Mach: We have to wear him down, to where he can't fight back. Keep the pressure on and-
A dark orb flew from the cliff side right near Trevor's face. It exploded, sending him flying
Tack Angel: Trevor! Giygas, help me dig him out of the rubble!
Giygas: I'd rather not. Someone has to keep this asshole occupied. Yaggis, you going to give me the free reign to work my magic?
Yaggis: Do what you're got to do.
Giygas: Oh yeah, that's feeling better. Hahaha! I'm getting serious now! YEAH!
Giygas's eyes glowed red, with the embodiment of his tortured, screaming soul appearing behind him momentarily. Samael swooped down, his wings growing larger, and the body of Simon beginning to decay and transform. He grinned with a sinister grin that ran up both sides of his face, as the cheeks began to give way to gnarled teeth.
Samael: Have you come to offer yourself to me now?
Giygas; No chance of that happening for you I'm afraid. Their fate was meant to be in MY HANDS, and now....heh....now it will be.
Samael: So a fight then?
Giygas: Yeah, a fight. By the way.
Giygas swatted with his hand, and the mountain seemed to reach out and swat Samael.
Giygas: Dick move, dragging our kid into this.
Yaggis: Giygas.
Giygas: Not now! Full control! Trust me!
Yaggis: ...Do what you can.
Giygas: Constantly reborn....never dying.....NEVER DYING!
Giygas lurched forward, and took off into the air, grabbing Samael by the throat, he rocketed them both up into the sky.
Samael: Huh...where are we going?
Giygas: Where does it look like? You ever had your atoms obliterated into a moon? Let's try it eh?
Samael: NOOOOOO!!!!
Giygas rocketed further and faster towards the stratosphere.
Giygas: I had not one, but two Trevor Machs do this shit to me on more than one occasion. Trust me, it sucks! You're gonna love it!
Memories began to flood through his mind. His time with George and Maria, and the darkness that followed those happy time. Losing everything, and then finding it again with his own George and Maria. A tear dripped down his cheek, but then it turn to ice. His body temperature began to plummet, and before long he was losing breath. The accent slowed to a stop.
Samael: No brave sacrifice for you today Giygas. You hypocrite. This isn't like you. Now Yaggis on the other hand, it's more his style. He cares...and we're both incapable. We're so wonderfully hollow.
Samael broke free and grabbed Giygas by the throat.
Samael: Dead inside...well not you...you're flesh and blood now. All the limitations of humanity, your flesh prison. Me? I'm already dead. Alright, you tried it your way, and now, MY TURN!
Samael changed course, hurtling back towards Earth with vicious speed. Heat began to form around them, as Giygas attempted to shield himself from it, but Samael allowed the fire to burn away more of Simon Stuart, until a mostly skeletal form remained. Death cackled as they hit the ground so hard it caused a shockwave. Elsewhere, Tack was just pulling Trevor out of the rubble, to see half of his face cut up and bleeding from the explosion.
Tack Angel: Trevor wake up!
Trevor Mach: Ugh, what made you think I wasn't just dead?
Tack Angel: You're too stubborn to die?
Trevor Mach: Yeah....yeah. What's going on.
Tack Angel: Samael just gave Giygas the biggest damn chokeslam in history.
Trevor Mach: Did he kick out?
Tack Angel: No idea.
Lady M's: Trevor? What the hell are you doing down there?
Trevor Mach: Trying to be dead, but it just wouldn't take. Oh good, you have Justice.
Lady M's: I don't want to have to hang back dammit! I want to help you, but-
Trevor Mach: Getting Justice to safety will be helping me. It's going to make all the difference. No more holding back.
Faris Angel: I have Christina Tack.
Tack Angel: Oh, that's the biggest damn relief.
Young Christina: Money in the jar Daddy.
Tack Angel: You notice how cool she's been through all of this? Christina, you're getting a new bike when we get home.
Young Christina: Yay!
Tack Angel: It's like she has no fear mechanism. Hope that isn't my fault. Can you take her back to the chopper?
Faris Angel: Absolutely. Be careful!
Tack Angel: My scythe will pierce the evil m'lady.
Faris Angel: What?
Tack Angel: Nothing! Ignore him...uh....me!
Suddenly, a large boulder flew into the air, as Samael crawled out of the crater and made his way towards where Giygas landed.
Trevor Mach: Shit out of time!
Young Christina: Swear jaw Uncle Trev-
Trevor Mach: Heh, I know kiddo. Let's go Star Prince!
Tack Angel: Right!
Trevor Mach: Bad Dudes!
Tack Angel: How uncouth!
Trevor Mach: Get it together Tack!
Trevor and Tack ran to the crater to see Samael looming over Giygas.
Samael: Ready to succumb yet?
Giygas: *sigh* I miss ball bats, frying pans, yo-yos, and freaking bottle rockets you know? This is getting EXCESSIVE! The answer will ALWAYS BE NO!
Samael: No choice I'm afraid.
Trevor Mach: Guess again dick wad!
Trevor rushed down into the crater and bashed Samael in the side of the head with his bat, sending him backwards.
Trevor Mach: How's that for a ball bat Giygas?
Giygas: Nice that it wasn't directed at me. You just saved my life. That must sting huh?
Trevor Mach: I'll throw up later.
Giygas: Ha! You ready to team up Mach?
Trevor Mach: Well shit, why not?
Tack Angel: That makes three of us.
Giygas; Ooo! I'm a "Bad Dude" eh?
Trevor and Tack: Let's not go crazy!
Samael: YOU WILL ALL DIE!
Trevor Mach: GO!
The three ran at Samael, and took the fight to him, attacking, bobbing, weaving, and backing away as the next combatant would attack. Trevor swung with the bat low, making Samael jump, where Tack was waiting with his scythe. Samael blocked it, but Giygas then forced a big rock into his midsection sending him to the ground. He reached for his scythe, only for Trevor to smash his hand with the lit up bat. An angry Samael jumped to his feet and held out his other hand, trying to force back the trio, but Giygas canceled it out with a push of his own, as Trevor and Tack both took a swing and shattered Samael, his bones falling to the ground. As they backed away, the bones began to swirl around and reform, looking even more twisted as lunged forward. As he was fighting though, M's and Faris both noticed that the masses of the dead surrounding them were turning to dust.
Lady M's: He's using up all of his power to fight them! He's burning out!
Faris Angel: They're wearing him down!
Hope Mach: Are you seeing this? They're all disappearing!
Gold: I take it the fight is going well?
Faris Angel: It might be.
Hope Mach: Wait, I see the kids, but I don't see Dan. Where is he?
Lady M's: Your boyfriend ran after Cade.
Hope Mach: Oh no, which way?
Lady M's: The only other direction you can hear fighting. Listen.
Hope Mach: ...Huh..thanks Mom.
Lady M's: Don't get killed Hope!
Gold: ...
Lady M's: What? I care about my kids! Don't look at me like that Gold.
Faris Angel: Heh.
While the trio continued to hammer down warfare onto the embodiment of Death itself, Hope Mach ran to a nearby cliff to find Dan struggling with Cade. Cade was on top with a large rock, ready to smash Dan over the head, but he hesitated long enough for Dan to turn the tides and roll him over. Dan grabbed him by the collar and punched him repeatedly against a rock wall.
Bashin Dan: Come on Cade! Snap out it!
Cade: Hit me Dan! Go ahead! Fuel my rage!
Bashin Dan: AH! DANG IT!
Dan threw Cade to the ground.
Bashin Dan: You're a brother to me Cade! A BROTHER!
Cade: Brothers....like Cain and Abel? We know that makes me, and what I have to do!
Cade grabbed Dan by the neck, and pushed him back towards the edge of a cliff.
Hope Mach: DAN! Cade stop!
Cade: Huh?
In another moment of hesitation, Dan planted his feet, head butt Cade, and threw him up and over. Cade hit the edge of the cliff and began to slip down the side, but Dan grabbed his hand just in time.
Cade: LET ME GO DAN! DO IT! KILL ME! Back like it was before! I don't deserve to live! I'm the spawn of Giygas! I'm the villain! The hero kills the villain! Do it! *tears up* DO IT!
Bashin Dan: Cade, is that what you think this is?!
Cade: It's a story Dan! It's all a story! Samael told me. We're written to-
Bashin Dan: Written to what? Follow a story? We are who we are Cade. We control our destiny. I have your fate in my hands right now, and you're telling me I'm supposed to let you drop? I say to hell with that!
Dan used all of his strength to pull Cade back up. They both lay on the ground breathing heavily.
Bashin Dan: If this story has an author, then he'll just have to write me out, because I will always do what's right in my heart. So Cade, if you're going to do it do it.
Bashin Dan stood up and turned his back to Cade.
Bashin Dan: Kill me! Write me out of this so called story! I believe that life is life, no matter what form, and humanity, what's in our hearts, burning with intensity and conviction, THAT is what MATTERS! Now kill me, or let me go save my friends, and YOUR FATHER!
Cade: I will not play your games. I will not listen to your words, and I will defy you, just like you defy me.
Bashin Dan: What do you mean by-
Dan turned around to see that Cade had disappeared. Hope ran up to the bleeding Dan.
Hope Mach: Look at you Dan. What am I ever going to do with you?
Bashin Dan: Play a card game or two?
Hope Mach: As many games as we can fit in a lifetime. You crazy boy. First though, we have to stop Death.
Bashin Dan: Oh is that all? I can barely walk.
Hope Mach: I'll help you.
Hope helped Dan limp away, with Dan looking back one more time for Cade, before returning to the fight.

The battle waged on, with Trevor, Tack, and Giygas constantly smashing down Samael, only for him to reassemble, but every time, more and more of the dead would be reduced to ashes. In Saturn City, the place they originally appeared, they had completely disappeared, leaving no trace of the fight that took place.
Samael: You're wasting your time Azrael. You can get a Star Prince, a "Builder", and whoever else you want to help you, but the difference is I am eternal, and you have given that up. You'll eventually wear down, and then, I will claim what is mine, by ripping it out of his damn body.
Giygas: Graphic, but not happening. You've already fallen for the trap.
Samael: Trap? What are you talking about?
Tack Angel: Yeah, I'd like to know myself.
Trevor Mach: You're right Samael. If I were an eternal, a full on celestial like you, I might have had a chance to wear you down one on one. I'm not though. I'm human. I break. I wear down. I can't put myself back together like you. However, that made me fight smarter. That made me enlist the help of these two, so we could all share the work load. Think about it. Am I breathing that heavy? No. You on the other hand, you don't have to breathe, but your running on fumes. The dead have all turned to dust and ash, and you've burned through whatever power you got from Giygas's awakening.
Samael: I have enough left.
Trevor Mach: Do you?
Samael: All I have to do, is beat you.
Trevor Mach: No, not quite.
Giygas: All you have to do, is not fall in.
Samael; What?
Giygas: That's the thing about "V" being on this side and the other, and me being in possession of said remnants. I can do something I really REALLY shouldn't do. But you know what? I'm gonna! Hahahahaha!
Giygas suddenly held his hands in front of him, and seemingly tried to tear apart the fabric of reality.
Samael: What do you think you're doing?! What am I saying, you can't pull it off obviously.
Giygas: Look behind you idiot!
Samael: Huh?
Behind Samael, as gate had opened up, and for the first time ever, Death felt fear, as the realm of Magicant appeared behind him.
Samael: NO! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
Giygas: Stole your idea! You want a reunion with "V" so badly? Have at it!
Trevor and Giygas charged at Samael, with Tack picking up the idea and joining them. The three tried to force Samael through the gate.
Samael: YOU'RE INSANE! STOP THIS AT ONCE!
Trevor Mach: I don't think so Sammy! You don't fear death, but how about an eternity in a prison with the embodiment of consumption! Scared of that?! Haha!
Samael grit his teeth, as different skeletal claws and tendrils dug into the ground, holding him in place.
Tack Angel: This isn't working like you planned is it?!
Trevor and Giygas: Shut up!
Tack Angel: Uncouth! Dammit!
Samael: It is awakening. I can feel it. You have doomed yourselves. He'll pour through this gate, and I will get exactly what I always wanted! The three of you are nothing compared to it. Compared to ME!
Trevor Mach: Fire it up fellas! Everything you've got! EVERYTHING! YOU'VE GOT!
The three glowed with tremendous light, as they put all of their energy into pushing Samael into the gate. He finally started to budge, but every time they moved him, he moved back.
Samael: It's pointless! It's not happening! You have doomed yourselves! Prepare for oblivion! HAHAHAHA!
Bashin Dan: I DON'T THINK SO!
Samael: WHAT?!
Bashin Dan, out of nowhere, rushed into the fray, and his final push, along with the other three, forced Samael, the embodiment of Death through the gate into Magicant.
Samael: NOOOOOOO!!!!!!
The group all assembled and watched as Samael was launched into the air, and consumed by "V", which quickly made its way towards the gate.
Trevor Mach: Close it Giygas! Close it! CLOSE IT!
Giygas: CLOSING IT!
Giygas put his hands together as if to seal the gate, as the doorway collapsed into nothing just before "V" made its way through. Everyone fell to the ground, breathing heavily.
Trevor Mach: See? Piece of cake.
Giygas: Ha! Sure. No problem.
Tack Angel: What were you two thinking?!
Bashin Dan: A very...very bold strategy, if I may say so myself. All or nothing essentially.
Lady M's: What the hell just happened?
Faris Angel: It's over....right?
Gold: Death has been consumed it appears.
Hope Mach: Please tell me it's over.
Yaggis: Almost...it's almost over.
Tack Angel: Doctor, you're in control again?
Yaggis: He relinquished control, so I could say goodbye.
Tack Angel: Goodbye?
Yaggis: Yes, for this to finally be over, the last remnants of "V" needs to join it in Magicant. I have to open the gate, and step through.
Faris: But, if you do that, you won't be able to come back will you?
Yaggis: Maybe....or maybe not, but you'll all be safe. My family will be safe, and maybe....just maybe....I'll redeem myself for all the damage I caused when I was Giygas.
Trevor Mach: And I'm going with him.
Lady M's: What?
Hope Mach: Dad?! Dad no! Why?!
Trevor Mach: Someone's got to keep an eye on Giygas, and quite frankly, someone sacrificing that much shouldn't have to do it alone. I was brought back to settle the score, and now it's done.
Lady M's: No Trevor, I don't want to lose you again. We have...we have so much ahead of-
Trevor Mach: Hey, I never said I won't be back.
Hope Mach: But Dad, I-
Trevor Mach: Again, I love you very much. You, your Mother, and Justice. We're a family, and we always will be.
Tack Angel: Trevor, I-
Trevor Mach: Hey bro, you'll be back to normal when I leave...I think. Take care of the family, and I'll see you around. Hey, Bad Dudes right?
Tack Angel: ...*sigh* Bad Dudes.
Bashin Dan: You can't leave! Your family needs you. EBW needs you.
Trevor Mach: No no....EBW's got you now. I'm counting on you.
Giygas: We've got to go and, make sure "V" never interferes in the business of myself or Mach ever again.
Trevor Mach: That's the smartest thing I've ever heard you say. We better hurry up. You and I still have a score to settle.
Giygas: Evidently.
Bashin Dan: You can't expect me to stay here while you both-
Trevor Mach: It's because you're here we can go.
Bashin Dan: Wait....wait no!
Dan ran up to them as Giygas was opening up the gate, but the two of them turned and punched him to the ground.
Trevor Mach: Heh. Adios!
Giygas: ...Dan....watch out for Cade for us would ya?
Yaggis: Tell my family I love them.
Giygas opened the gate, and the two jumped through, closing it on the other side.
The group stood in shock at the events that took place. Tack put his hand to his head and leaned against a rock, as his scythe disappeared. M's shed a tear before laughing a little.
Lady M's: Heh. That idiot. Always off doing his own thing.
Hope Mach: Mom, you're not worried?
Lady M's: He'll be back. He's too stubborn to stay gone. Come on, let's all get out of here.
Faris Angel: Tack, are you alright?
Tack Angel: I just lost my friend to...whatever the hell this is going on. He'd better come back, that's all I'm saying.
Faris Angel: And the other you?
Tack Angel: ....Gone I think.
Hope Mach: Dan, let me help you up.
Bashin Dan: Your Dad is kind of a jerk Hope!
Hope Mach: Heh, he was just trying to look out for you.
Bashin Dan: Maybe, but that was a funny way of showing it. Still, I'm going make a promise here and now to Yaggis...and Giygas I suppose. I'm going to try and save Cade. I won't give up.
Hope Mach: And I'll support you, every step of the way.
Bashin Dan: ....We'll support each other.
Hope Mach: *sigh* Dad, Mom was right, you are an idiot, but we love you. Please come back soon.
The group assembled, and boarded the helicopter. As Faris radioed Mr. Face to fill him in on the details, M's sat her head back against the wall of the helicopter and looked up.
Lady M's: *sigh* I never even got to tell him I'm pregnant.
Tack Angel: Oh that su-
Everyone but M's: WHAAAAAAAT?!
Magicant - 2 Days Later
In Magicant, a world of imagination and abstract shapes and beings, the enormous "Entity V" swirled around the sky, attempting to break free of its eternal prison. Flying Men and living vegetables gathered around in a clearing, as Trevor Mach and Giygas were fighting it out. Giygas attempted to throw a rock at Trevor, but he smashed it with his bat. Trevor swung for the fences, but Giygas ducked. Trevor whipped around and smashed the head of the bat into Giygas's chest, sending him flying into a rock.
Trevor Mach: Ha! That's a one up for me!
Giygas: What are you talking about? We're obviously even.
Trevor Mach: Where the hell did you learn to count!?
The two sat down on the ground, catching their breath.
Trevor Mach: Heh, this could go on forever.
Giygas: You might be right. We've got a lot of time to kill. You ready to go again?
Trevor Mach: Absolutely.
The two stood back up, ready to fight, but suddenly, "Entity V" came baring down on the duo.
Trevor Mach: Looks like it remembered us.
Giygas: We'll settle it later.
Trevor Mach: Right. Let's do this!
Trevor and Giygas turned to the encroaching "Entity", ready to fight.

They'll get even more help from a team of teenagers transported from modern day 1987 Earth! Together, they will fight the forces of EVIL! They are STAR PRINCE AND THE DEFENDERS OF-
Towards the end of the show...
Star Prince and his fellow heroes looked over the battle ground, as the sun rose over the mountains.
Star Prince: Finally, it is over. The being that was set to devour the universe has been completely sealed away, and the Grim Reaper himself has been eliminated as well. To think, Death would come at the hands of Death. Now, we truly live in a new world, but we must remember that time travel is no longer possible, and death is a very real consequence. The Celestials will intervene no longer, for they continue their own personal war within the Sanctum. We must make everyday count, and fight for the future of humanity. For ALL the stars in the sky, for we are STAR PRINCE AND THE DEFENDERS OF EVERYTHING!
Narrator: Next time on Star Prince and the Defenders of Everything. Star Prince memory loss? Where does he go at night? The evil conglomerate in the beach front city plans a hostile takeover! A journey overseas will ignite another war! All of this and more next time on Star Prince and the Defenders of Everything!

EBW World
Nerma: So what a week we've had so far right? Feels like loooong week. Anyone remember the ending to Xcite? Anyone? I really can't. I think the Man in Black said he was leaving or something? I don't know. The point is, it's a new battleground in EBW, with Mav Valentine as our new Triple Crown World Champion. We understand that Trevor Mach has taken a "leave of absence" for a while, so a new #1 Contender is going to be determined soon. That man will take on Mav Valentine at the next big event! Now, I understand we have to give some air time to the two presumptive candidates to become the new EBW President! They're going to pitch their vision of EBW going forward. *sigh* This ought to be a gas. Let's hear it.
-
w00t: You know why you should elect me. Oh sure, I've been a "bad guy", and maybe I wanted to "destroy all life" from time to time, but I'm a genius, and I've run this company before, and better than anyone before. Sure, some of that time, I might have been "replaced" with a "robot", BUT I know how to do this. Can you say that same about the other guy? He's Orange Man, and Orange Man Bad! That's the tagline we're going with. Whenever anything is wrong with anything scream "ORANGE MAN BAD"! It doesn't have to have anything to do with him at all. It's STILL going to be his fault. We skirt the blame to the Orange Man, and we get to the business of making EBW the top promotion it was when I was in charge. I'm sick of all these gimmicks that come and go. Temporary titles, and secondary shows. Narrow it down! Stop the clutter! Also, I'd like to announce that I've been endorsed by two VERY influential figures.
Mayor Rex: That's right w00t. It takes a Mayor of my stature to know a good candidate when I see one, and I want to personally work very very closely with Mr. w00t here, to ensure a bright future for EBW in Summers. We made a LOT of money during their Spring Break stay here in our fair city. I'd hate to see that business relationship fall apart because of Orange Man Bad. Right?
Tess: That's oh so right Mr. Mayor. I too endorse w00t for the job. I know we'll do great things together.
w00t: That's right! Now let's hear it one more time. ORANGE MAN BAD!
-
Orange Man: Do not listen to my opponent, he is rude, he is crass, and he is loser. Can you all say loser, cause that's what he is. I'm the best, there has never been anyone as good as me. I'm unstoppable on twitter, and my opponents all hate me, because I can bring results. Yes, my hair IS real, and this tan came from Summers. Of course, I look orange. I'm the Orange Man. I promise to bring the best to EBW. The best venues, the best stars, and the best matches. We'll find Trevor Mach and bring him back with a fat new contract. We'll lock down Swift and make sure he stays with us. We'll crush the competition, because that's what we do. We'll be the best, because I'm the best.
-
Nerma: Yeah, I figured that's about what we'd hear. Well, onto some announcements here, as we head to Twoson for Xperience. We're being told that Tess is holding a "Celebration Party" for Lady M's. I have no idea what that means, but we'll find out. We DO know that Tracy is being punished for her efforts as Special Referee on Xcite. Makoto and Nani will both be in Handicap matches against members of Eisenritter. Also, a big main event full of mystery. With Trevor Mach taking time off, we have an opening in the World Team Champions team. Who will they get to fill in as Interim Champion, as they take on Cadmus and a mystery team? All of this, plus, we'll be hearing from the Triple Crown World Champion, Women's World Champion, Women's Television Champion, and World Tag Team Champions. After all the action lately, it's time to get reacquainted with the champs. Don't miss it!

Outside of the Mach Residence
The Angel Van pulled outside of Mach Residence, as the back door swung open, a lavishly dressed Tack Angel attempted to make a grand exit, but tripped up on the curb.
Tack Angel: Whoa! Whoa! I-I think I'm alright.
He fixed his massive hat, with a large feather sticking out of it, and popped the collar of his shirt.
Tack Angel: Looking good Mr. Star Prince. Why thank you me.
Penguin: Qua!
Tack Angel: Didn't ask your opinion Penguin. I think I look great!
Penguin: Qua!
Tack Angel: I already told you why we're here. My friend is gone, and his wife is pregnant. Time to step up.
Penguin: Qua!
Tack Angel: No, it's NOT like that! Just keep the van running! This shouldn't take long if I turn up the ol' Tack Angel charm.
Penguin: Qua!
Tack Angel: Oh yeah? Tell that to the 7 wives!
Penguin: Qua!
Tack Angel: She only hates me now, but she'll learn to love me!
Tack made his way to the door and held up a bouquet of roses. Lady M's opened the door, with a glare on her face, mixed with confusion.
Tack Angel: H-hey Tali.
Lady M's: ....Tack...the hell are you doing here?
Tack Angel: Well, I'm here....for you. Hehe.
Lady M's: Again....the hell are you doing here?
Tack Angel: Well...well I'll just get right down to it. Listen Tali, you're going to be a mother, but Trevor isn't around anymore.
Lady M's: Really? I hadn't noticed.
Tack Angel: Ha...h-ha ha...ha. Right. So, I was thinking, it's time I step up, and offer myself....to you. You know? You....could be wife #-
Lady M's slammed the door in his face. He stood there for a moment, before readjusting his smashed nose.
Lady M's: *from the other side of the door* He's coming back Tack. You're an idiot.
Tack Angel: Yeah....yeah I'm an idiot. *sigh*
Lady M's: *from the other side of the door* When he comes back I'm going to tell him about this.
Tack Angel NO DON'T!
EBW World
Nerma: Nerma here! It's time for another update with EBW World! Man, it's just been crazy how much has been changed recently. We thought that a war between EBW and the Forgotten would be waged for months, but it's merely served to bring back some under used and under appreciated talent, but not just in the Forgotten. The Legion are here to shake things up, with crowd favorites like Grind and Switchback, the reunited Jet Set Future. I have them here via....uh...."Jet Set...Video"?
The shot cut to a halfpipe somewhere sprayed with colorful graffiti. Grind, Switchback, Kyoko the Love Shocker, and Poison Jam were hitting the half pipe hard, with Rude and Generator in the foreground.
Rude: You see that? These brothers and sisters managed to mix that into wrestling. They wrestle on rollerblades, and they actually manage to make it work, and work OH SO WELL. Now, how could we just ignore that? How could we let that slip through our fingers people? We took that kind of talent for granted, but now they're back.
Generator: We had to get on the right side of things here. The return of high flying. The return of awesome aerial combat. We all got together to be the third party in a war that ended before you knew it, but that we weren't just talking about the Forgotten. We weren't just talking about EBW. We're talking about subverting the black hats and the white hats. We're going to ride the line, and be something altogether different. Prepare for a brand new way, and we're happy to be apart of it.
Grind flipped in the air, before landing and rolling up to the foreground.
Grind: It's going to really pick up on Neon Nights. I intend to take that Neon Championship from Benjamin, and make it what the CXJ and Sky Runner Championships used to be. *sigh* Too many titles EBW. Too many damn titles.
-
Nerma: He's not wrong. I hear from both w00t AND Orange Man, that they want to keep the amount of titles consistent, and no longer confuse people about their lineage. I mean, do you even know where the EBW 2nd Belt fits into everything? What about that Maelstrom Championship? Remember that? It's great to try new things, but if we're not consistent, it starts to become meaningless. We've got the best wrestlers and the best championships, and it's time we really treat them that way....I would think. Speaking of Championships though, we have the Challenge Champion Jammer here with us. Now THIS is a title I do like. It's new, like the Neon Championship, but it has meaning. You weren't in the World Championship picture, and you wanted a title that would put you on television at least once per week on one of our many shows. Now you got it.
Jammer: Actually, I just wanted to beat Bashin Dan. He's my good friend, and I've got his back, but damn, it's crushing sometimes that it's not called the Jam Club you know? It's cool. It's all good. I'm Dan Club through and through. I even made these b-ball jerseys for the team, because that's what we are. A team, and a family. That's why I'm calling out Cade.
Nerma: I was wondering why you were asking for air time.
Jammer: Yeah, for once it's not to stroke the ol' ego. It's not to show off my sweet dunking skills either....cause I'm still working on those. I can touch the rim now. No, this is about a dick head, who is hurting our team. We were all a part of something great man. I betrayed all of you, and Dan forgave me. He wants to forgive you too, even though you should be the one begging for forgiveness. I was in your place, and when the hand reached out for me, I took it. The ball is in your court now, and you intentionally foul out. I don't know where you are, or what you're planning. I don't know what the Ex-Forgotten have in store for EBW, but I know what I want. A match with you. Whether I have the Challenge Championship or not doesn't matter to me, but it probably matters to you, so I'll sweeten the deal. I'll get through Maurice. You just watch me. I'll beat him, and then, I'm extending this challenge on Xperience. Don't be a chump. Take the match. We've got some shit to work out.
Nerma: It sounds like you're overlooking Maurice. I'd be careful doing that.
Jammer: I'm absolutely NOT overlooking Maurice. In fact, I've asked the World Tag Team Champions Amigo and Kinniku Mike to watch my back. I want it nice and fair, because we're opening the show. It's going to be a big show. It's going to be an even bigger match. In fact, I'm calling it now. Of all the matches ever, this will be "THE MOST WRESTLING MATCH OF ALL TIME"!
Nerma: The what now?
Jammer: "The Most Wrestling Match of All Time".
Nerma: The most wrestling what?
Jammer: You have to put it in quotes and capitalize the first letter of every word. It'll look great as a t-shirt.
Nerma: I don't know what you mean by that. You mean like the greatest? The best? What?
Jammer: "The" "Most" "Wrestling" "Match" "of" "All" "Time". It's happening on Xperience! Be there....or at least watch it! Just watch it!
Crystal Heaven
Later that night, Tack Angel was laying in a hammock on the pirate ship. Penguin in a pirate bandana waddled up to him.
Penguin: Qua.
Tack Angel: Yeah, they found out about my plan. Someone told them. I think it was Pirate Bob. He's a snitch.
Penguin: Qua.
Tack Angel: Yeah, I know I deserve it I guess. I just...I have so much love to give, and I really need to fill up the space on my phone image here. It's got all the wives, but I'm in there looking like an idiot! It's really messing with my "phone shui".
Penguin: .....
Tack Angel: Get it? My "phone shui". Eh? Eh? E-
Pirate Bill: Yarr, beggin yer pardon sir, but we be tryin' ta sleep.
Tack Angel: Sorry. Sorry. *sigh* I'm the Star Prince dam-
Tack suddenly spaced out, and got out of the hammock. He quickly ran away from the confused Penguin.
Penguin: Qua?
See? He was confused.

Mav Valentine: I'm Mav Valentine, I'm the EBW Triple Crown World Champion. I'm proof, that the cast aside and forgotten of the world, can make a stand, and take what belongs to them. I didn't come into this to be a bad guy. I didn't come into wrestling with the intention of being booed out of the building. I came here to fight, and I came here to win. I did what I had to do to get my second chance, and I'd say I made the most of it so far. However, the real challenge begins now. It's time to see if I can break the curse. The young talent winning the title, only to lose it, and fall back down the card. No. I don't think so. Not me. I'm not going anywhere. Find Trevor Mach or give me a new #1 Contender. I'm ready to prove myself.
-
Christina Angel: I'm Christina Angel, and I'm the EBW Women's World Champion. It's always been a struggle for the women of EBW. It's always been that way. Not due to lack of talent though, but to lack of direction. It's a war of ideology, and about what it means to be a women's wrestler. Some people are so caught up, trying to be what they're not, that they forget what they are. We're women, we're not the men. We shouldn't strive to copy the men, but to take our own direction, and define what we are. That doesn't mean eye candy either. We're not mindless sex objects. Lady M's helped pave the way here. We can be sexy AND strong or strong AND sexy, depending on what is more important to the individual. We could be one or the other if we choose, but it's our choice. The moment you wrap a division of women around "The Man", you've set yourself up as second best. That's not what I want. It's not the division I intend to lead as Women's World Champion. I intend to make it interesting.
-
Kinniku Mike: I'm Kinniku Mike, and I'm a World Tag Team Champion.
Amigo: I'm Amigo, and I'm also a World Tag Team Champion. You know, if you want the future to be bright, it's got to be better than what came before it, but nothing appears to be better than us.
Kinniku Mike: That's a humble brag from Amigo, but for me, it's all ego baby. We're that damn good. Always have been. We've even better now, because we know what we want. We want the Strong Tits.
Amigo: We want to get to catering before anyone else.
Kinniku Mike: But what do we want most of all? To remain the World Tag Team Champions, because like it or not, we're best when we're a team.
Amigo: We're a team now, not because we have to be, but because we choose to be.
Kinniku Mike: So suck on that Maurice! Uuuuu!!!
Amigo: *sigh* That was almost perfectly subtle Mike. We were so close.
Tommy Dukes: Welcome to the Twoson Fairgrounds, and it's time to level up with some Xperience!
Nerma: It's still hard to believe what happened after Golden Week, but here we are with a field of new Champions, many of which you just saw in little "re-introductions". I'd get confused trying to follow all this nonsense myself if I didn't work here. We got a big show for you tonight, with a World Team Championship main event. Tack Angel, Firebrand X, and Subculture are going to have to find a partner, when they take on Cadmus and his team. Who does he have? It's probably those guys that have been following him around lately.
Tommy Dukes: You're not supposed to spoil these things!
Nerma: Is it really a spoiler? Like, if it was those guys, and you didn't see it coming, you'd be disappointed right?
Tommy Dukes: I think Danny Leung is a GREAT talent....that just chose the NO PUSH route, and his career went up in flames.
Nerma: So yeah, not an exciting attraction. I want to know who Tack got for his team though. We don't know that. I wonder if it's Swift.
Tommy Dukes: Apparently Swift is still focused on rehabbing, locking down a new contract extension, getting his hands on w00t, and finding the perfect enchilada. I don't know if it's in that order, but I guess that doesn't count him out. We'll find out later when-
Tess: Excuse me, I'm talking here Dukes. Get out of my way, and be grateful that your wife still has a job. Makoto won't be joining you tonight. She'll be a little predisposed. Oh, it's going to be a big night for the Angel Family right? Actions have consequences Tracy. I'd like to take this time to announce that Miss EBW, Tracy Angel, is no longer with this company. She is FIRED. I warned her. I told her to do the right thing, and she didn't listen. You don't listen to your boss, you get fired. That's how it works in literally any other profession. Why not here?
Nerma: That's a really shitty thing to do.
Tess: Nerma, I gave you back your job, and I can just as easily take it away again. Be grateful! All you ladies keep trying to fight my vision. Strong powerful women of the future standing tall, while also controlling the libidos of all the smelly marks in the crowd. It's so simple. It prints money. Tali has tried to fight it. Oh how she's tried to fight it, but that's all over now. No rematch with Erica, no World Championship title shot. No more Tali period. See, I know for a fact, that she is pregnant, and that's why she's been side skirting me, and avoiding matches. You can't keep it from me. Kudos for not putting the baby in danger. With you, I figured you wouldn't give a damn, because you barely keep track of the children you have as it is. Tonight, it's a special night for you Tali. We're throwing you a party. It'll be a baby shower AND a going away party. It's the LEAST I can do. So exciting right? Better be grateful. My job is about to get so much easier.
Nerma: ....
Tommy Dukes: I know baby....I know. Anyways, we're moving onto our first match, which has been touted as "The Most Wrestling Match of All Time!" Wear a helmet people.
EBW: Xperience
Twoson Fairgrounds, Twoson
ENN
1. EBW Challenge Championship: Jammer(c) beat Maurice via Slam Jam -> Pin -> Title Defense!
-"The Most Wrestling Match of All Time" was a fairly good encounter between Jammer and Maurice for the Challenge Championship. Nothing bad, but not the best either. It ran a little long. Everyone knew that the two could put on great matches, but the abstract nature of it being "The Most" left many confused. Finish came when Jammer ducked the head kick, and took Maurice to the ground, before pumping his kicks for the Slam Jam and the pin.
Tommy Dukes: Well there you have it. Was it "The Most"? I have no idea, but good on Jammer for another successful defense. Finally, that ball is in his court.
Nerma: Let him do the b-ball puns please.
Tommy Dukes: But he's on fire.
Nerma: Maurice looks upset, and now here come the Paradise Collection to laugh at him. They're loving this. They'll be sitting at ringside for the tag matches a little later on, and Maurice looks ready to tear them apart. *sigh* I'm honestly not looking forward to what is coming next. Good luck Makoto.
2. Women's Handicap: Troian[o]/Sylvie beat Makoto Angel via TikTak -> Pin
-A 2-on-1 beat down of Makoto Angel. The commentator and part time wrestler stood her ground to the best of her ability, but the numbers game wore her down. The other Angel wives tried to get involved, but Muscle Girl Security stood in the way to keep them back. Troian, dressed as Tracy Angel, did the TikTak to end the match.
Nerma: That's garbage. Just garbage.
Tommy Dukes: Makoto did her best, but Eisenritter and the Muscle Girl Security were going to make sure she lost tonight.
Backstage
The Angels were helping Makoto to the back as Tack ran up.
Tack Angel: Makoto, are you alright?
Makoto Angel: I've been better, but I tried my best. I have no regrets, except for how much I'm hurting right now. I regret that.
Tack Angel: Heh. You need to be careful. You all need to be careful. Nani, I don't want you going out for your match tonight.
Nani Angel: I must. I do not back down from a challenge.
Tack Angel: With this one you should I think. Look, I know I agreed to stay out of your matches and career paths. You all want to succeed on your own power, but this isn't a fight you can win. They just want to beat you up.
Nani Angel: Then they will "beat me up", but I will not back down from a challenge. We're a family, that thrives on many things. Courage is one of them.
Tack Angel: *sigh* Well I tried.
Nani Angel: Appreciated.
Tack Angel: *sigh* I-
Cadmus: Have other problems on your hands. You're missing a partner aren't you?
Cadmus walked up to Tack flanked by Franky, Danny Leung, and Dave.
Cadmus: You thought you'd get one over on my team here by getting rid of Bartz eh?
Faris Angel: He's back home now.
Cadmus: I wasn't asking the pirate whore.
Tack Angel: Hey! That's enough! What do you want? You come here to gloat? No, Swift isn't here. He wanted to be, but I asked him to stay home and finish his recovery. He kept trying to come back early, and we weren't getting peak Swift. Do I have a partner for tonight? I've got Firebrand X and I've got *sigh* Subculture. We didn't all get to where we are without earning it. The three of us, can beat the four of you, but maybe I do have a partner. You won't know until then. So take your goons and get out of here.
Cadmus: Ha! You're lucky they don't take you down right now after what you tried to do to them.
Tack Angel: What are you talking about?
Danny Leung: Don't play the idiot Tack! You came at us while we were scheming! You walked right into the bar, and attacked us! Uh...hi Nani.
Nani Angel: Hello Mr. No Push.
Danny Leung: *sigh*
Tack Angel: I don't know what you're talking about. I did no such thing. What I will do though, is beat you in the ring. And also....warn you that Eris is running up behind you with a giant mallet.
Franky: Ha! Like we'd believe tha-
Eris Angel: DIE!!!!
Franky: Cheese it!
Dave: I'm just a guy!
Amy Angel: This is crazy. They fire Tracy. They put Makoto and Nani in these matches, and you have to go into a match without a partner. What are we going to do?
Tack Angel: ...Wait....I think....yeah...yeah I just got an idea.
Saxon: You want us to tag in for the main event?
Novus: We got this!
Tack Angel: No. No to that forever. Go protect my family or something. Jeez! Tag in? Are your mullets choking off the oxygen to your brains?
3. Tag: Dorado Mask/Hex No Limit[o] beat Dirk Laramie[x]/Dick Wagner via Brainbuster -> Pin
-The World Tag Team Champions Kinniku Mike and Amigo watched on with Sal Paradise for the next two matches, as the Tag Teams in EBW fought for the hope to challenge Paradise Collection for the straps. The old school team of Dirty Dick Wagner and Dirk Laramie fell apart, when Magnum PT came out throwing a tantrum about being replaced. Rookie Cup winner Dirk was taken up for the Brainbuster by Hex, who quickly got the pinfall victory.
Tommy Dukes: It looks like PT isn't liking the fact that we have a better version of him. Even Mike and Amigo seemed to be more impressed by him, and they used to run with PT. Good win for the Lucha Bastards though. Fray Tiburon and Valarie Dorado both look happy with the win. PT though....sucking on lemons over there. Heh.
4. Tag: Grind[o]/Switchback beat Vape[x]/Benjamin via Rolling SSP -> Pin
-The Legion were in action next against Dan Club, and the big man and knight combo were not prepared for the flashy lights and luchablading action that followed. Vape was slow to react, and found himself tripping over Swtichback, who tagged in Grind for the Rolling SSP, while Switchback kept Benji busy with a rolling TOPE SUICIDAAAAAA! Cause this way, the move keeps Benjamin from getting into the ring and actually serves a purpose you see. 1-2-3.
Tommy Dukes: Yeah! I mean sorry Dan Club, I love you and all, but the high fliers are back in EBW, and I'm stoked about it. Dan Club are always about growth, and this duo will have to do some growing to be able to match up to The Legion.Benjamin better also be ready for this weekend, cause Grind is coming for that Neon Championship on Neon Nights. Yeah, he's the #1 Contender. Bet you forgot about that?
5. Women's Handicap: Kaie/Duvalie[o] beat Nani Angel via Rear Naked Choke -> Referee Stoppage
-The next Handicap match was carried out the same as the first, with Muscle Girl Security keeping the Angels away from the ring, while Kaie and Duvalie picked the little assassin apart. Nani showed courage, and stood up to the duo, but the numbers game again wore her down. Duvalie locked in the Rear Naked Choke, but had to secretly deploy her signature choking cord to make Nani pass out. A Referee Stoppage.
Nerma: I don't lie this one bit. Nani is an ass kicker, and she survived that match a lot longer than I would have expected. She deserves praise, but instead she's being carried out cause of Tess, Muscle Girl Security, and Eisenritter. What a bunch of garbage!
Tommy Dukes: Well, next up, we have the "Celebration for Lady M's". Here comes Tess and Erica now.
Nerma: Oh God, I hope she didn't hear me.
The stage was set with balloons and presents as the show came back from commercial. Tess and Erica stood in the ring.
Tess: It's a joyous day is it not? The end of an era, but the beginning of a new one. My ideas will no longer be fought or blocked by the defiant Tali, because she's found a new ACTUAL purpose in life. Carrying Trevor Mach's idiot children! Wow Erica wow, I did not expect this stroke of luck.
Erica: This was the only way for her to save face and avoid losing to me. Title or no title, I would have fought you Tali, and I would have beaten you. I'm the best in this sport, and when Christina Angel falls, and I regain the title, I will have no one standing in my way, especially not you.
Tess: Oh come on, we need to stop being so negative. This is a celebration! Tali, for years, you've been a lynch pin in Women's Wrestling, but really, where did that get us? It came to me coming back AGAIN, and finally cleaning up the mess left by years of selfish people and poor decisions. Oops, I went off again. Back to the positives. Let's look at your career highlights on the big screen shall we? Yes, I think we shall. Take a look.
A "highlight" reel aired, that was more like low lights, showing off Erica beating up Lady M's several times, including the time she beat her in a Buried Alive match. The time she aligned with Tracy, and every time she lost a title.
Tess: Beautiful. That was just beautiful.
Erica: I knew I "buried" Tali in the past, but look at that. I legit buried her too. Haha! It's all fun jokes. I'm just kidding Tali. Seriously, it's great that you're moving on to other things. This division, it just doesn't need you anymore. Maybe...MAYBE it did at first, but that was to open the door for me. Now, I am-
Lady M's theme played as rolled down the ring in his motorcycle. She circled the ring several times, before parking and getting into the ring, kicking presents and knocking away balloons in the process.
Tess: The guest of honor is here! Be careful Tali, you don't want to hurt the baby. I'm certain you don't want anyone else hurting it either.
Lady M's: Threatening a fetus? That's a new low for you. Erica, you're talking a lot of shit, and it going to come back to bite you in the ass, I promise. But Tess, this is about you. You want to throw a party, and say farewell to me? You think it's over? You think you've won? You haven't won a damn thing. You think I'm going to leave, and you're going to turn this into a farce you can forget it. No, we're not going to lay back and take it like good little girls. We're not going to put on the bikinis, do the striptease, and bare it all like a bunch of bimbos. The women of this division are going to fight you. They're going to fight Eisenritter. They're going to stop you, and I'm going to help them!
Tess: What?
Erica: You're pregnant! You can't do a damn thing!
Lady M's: I can and I will! I'll teach them. I'll coach them. I'll have their backs. I'll fire them up. I can't be "The Man", but I can be "The Mom".
At that moment, EBW Women's World Champion Christina Angel and Television Champion Hope Mach jumped into the ring and attacked Erica, while Tess ran away to the safety of Muscle Girl Security.
Lady M's: This isn't over Tess! It's never over!
6. EBW World Team Championship:
-Main event time, as The World Team Champions took on Cadmus and his group of flunkies. He laughed at the thought of having the advantage, and mocked Tack for not being able to find a partner.Tack Angel(c)[o]/Firebrand X(c)/Subculture(c)/"Travis" Angel beat Cadmus/Danny Leung/Franky/Dave[x] via Starsault -> Pin -> Title Defense!
Twoson Fairgrounds - Parking Garage
Cadmus's goons were left to lick their wounds after the loss to the Team Champions...
Franky: That sucked. Now I remember why I retired.
Danny Leung: Why did I say No Push? I never should have said No Push! I should have said Push! Push! Gah!
Dave: And I'm just a guy! Why did they go after me?!
?: Stop there fiends!
Franky: Nani?
Danny Leung: No, I'd know if it was her.
A masked man in middle eastern style clothing, stood atop the parking garage, with the moon at his back.
?: You have plagued that family for far too long, and I'm here to put a stop to it once and for all!
Danny Leung: Who are you?!
?: I'M THE STARLIGHT KNIGHT!
Danny, Franky, and Dave: AHHHHHH!!!!

Noah Jennings Office
Noah was looking over paperwork, and watching campaign ads for w00t, and Orange Man on the television.
Noah Jennings: *sigh* What was I thinking? One of those guys is going to help me run things? I don't know if this was a good idea. Plus, I've got Tess to deal with, and she's a handful. I can't exactly get her to back off either, not after the contract I had her sign. I mean, ratings are up, but-
?: Perhaps I can be of some assistance sir.
Noah Jennings: Huh?
A timid woman with purple hair and thick round glasses walked into the room.
Noah Jennings: Wait...do I know you?
?: The name is Lucca, I was an assistant in SPARKLE. Played a big role in trying to keep it alive.
Noah Jennings: Oh right, the book worm. What can I do for you?
Lucca: Bookwo-no, that's not important. What IS important, is keeping the spirit of SPARKLE alive, and respecting Master Lu's wishes.
Noah Jennings: I'm not following.
Lucca: A couple months back, a tape was shown to Lady M's and Tess, it was a last will and testament of sorts for them from Master Lu. His hope, was to have M's and Tess work together to rebuild SPARKLE. He wasn't alive to see the explosive war that's broken out between them. It's been out of control.
Noah Jennings: To say the least. I hired Tess to shake things up. I didn't intend for her to go this far. I can't fire her either.
Lucca: Then let's carry out Lu's will here, in EBW.
Noah Jennings: What do you mean?
Lucca looked to the Lakitu, cocked her head, and moved in to whisper in Jennings' ear.
Lucca: So what do you think, and what are those? How do they stay in the clouds like that?
Noah Jennings: I think...that's a bold idea, and a crazy idea, and a spastic idea. An absolutely mental idea. I love it.
Crystal Heaven
Tack woke up feeling very woozy.
Tack Angel: Oh boy....my head. Wait, how did I get here? I don't remember getting home last night. Oh no, did I drink some tart juices? I get SO flush!
Amy Angel: Good news Tack!
Tack Angel: Huh?! What?! Huh?! What?! Who said that? Where are my pants?!
Amy Angel: Oh you! Wake up sleepy. I've got great news. Franky and Dave were apparently beaten up and sent packing last night.
Tack Angel: They were?
Amy Angel: Yeah. Makoto saw the whole thing.
Makoto Angel: Yeah, it was this guy in a this really cool costume. He jumped down from the parking garage, and beat them up. Danny ran off yelling "No Push", and Franky and Dave promised they'd go away if he stopped.
Tack Angel: Well, I guess that is good news....that those guys got pummeled. You think if I send Danny a fruit basket we could bury the hatchet?
Nani Angel: ....I wouldn't count on it.
Tack Angel: Can someone tell me how we got here?
Faris Angel: You don't remember? Poor guy was tuckered out last night. We all got to the van, and you were sleeping in the back already.
Tack Angel: Ah yes, it must have been from that Starsault. I hit my head pretty hard. I saw flashes of leaving Penguin in the enclosed pool area. I'd better be more careful.
Faris Angel: I'd say. You're already forgetful enough as is.
Tack Angel: I guess so. Well, I guess I'll not worry about it so much right now, but maybe later, I'll go see Degrees. For now, it's time to check on Iroha!
Amy Angel: Yeah, she's been confined to Crystal Heaven for so long, I'm worried about her myself.
Tack and Amy made their way to a room, with a trembling Pirate Bill and unconscious Taquito standing in front of it.
Tack Angel: Good lord, what is happening in there!?
Pirate Bill: Yarr, Lady Iroha not be feelin' her best. The tides of anger wash over her as the belly continues to rise.
Tack Angel: ....Huh?
Amy Angel: Pregnancy is driving her mad.
Tack Angel: Right....right. But wait...what's wrong with Tacquito?!
Pirate Bill: She be throwin' things sir, and a stay lamp knocked the poor lad out.
Tack Angel: TACQUTIOOOOO! My poor sweet boy!
Amy Angel: Tack, she's been cooped up for a while. She deserves to vent the rage. We need to go in there and cheer her up.
Tack Angel: R-r-right. We're totally going in there. *gulp*
They opened the door to a dark room, where Iroha was sitting up in her bed, her face covered in long hair.
Tack Angel: H-h-honey? Are you alri-
Iroha Angel: WHERE! HAVE! YOU! BEEEEEN!
Tack Angel: Ah!
Amy Angel: Um...once we got done in Summers we-
Iroha Angel: I'm....HUNGRY!
Amy Angel: What can we get you?!
Iroha Angel: PICKLES! ICE CREAM! NOW!
Amy Angel: Uh...right away.
Tack Angel: Iroha, I lov-
Iroha Angel: YOU DID THIS TO ME!
Tack Angel: CHEESE IT!

One Eyed Jack's - Fourside Branch
Cade was sitting at the bar, looking into his drink, just staring at it, and thinking intently. The barkeep, who had two eyes, thus breaking the immersion, approached him.
Barkeep: Young sir, you've been staring at that drink for at least an hour. Maybe you're too young for something that strong? I could get you something else you know. What do you need?
Cade: Need? What do I need? I don't NEED anything. I want. Do you understand me? I WANT. What I want, is for you to leave me alone.
Barkeep: Fair enough.
?: Do you mind if I sit with you?
Cade: ....Dan.
Bashin Dan: I don't normally come to bars myself, because-
Cade: Because you're just the paragon of virtue aren't you?
Bashin Dan: ...I was going to say because I don't drink. But in this case, I knew you were here.
Cade: What gave me away.
Bashin Dan: I've been trying to track you down since the desert. I wanted to tell you about your Father.
Cade: You wanted to tell me that he died?
Bashin Dan: No, I wanted to tell you that he lived. He and Mach took care of the problem, but the they're with the problem now. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Cade: ...I read you loud and clear, but you're wasting your time. Sit down would you? You're making me uncomfortable, and I'm trying to enjoy my drink.
Bashin Dan: You're not drinking it though.
Cade: I don't have to drink it to enjoy it. Just looking at it, and thinking,
Bashin Dan: Cade, I-
Cade: I can't hear you so well anymore.
Bashin Dan: What?
Cade: I can't hear you. Kindness....I can't hear it so well. Your words, fade into the background. Evil....it gets louder and louder. I can hear all the evil in this room. The cheating, and the lying, and the violence. I can hear all of it. I'm willing to bet it's the opposite for you. You're having trouble hearing me now aren't you?
Bashin Dan: Well, I mean, it's a busy bar.
Cade: Don't play coy. You don't want to admit it, but my voice is fading. You can't hear it so well anymore. That's because we're on two separate paths. The road forked, and we took two different roads. It's gets harder to hear when you're walking that far away from each other.
Bashin Dan: It's not too late. You can come back.
Cade: No. No, we have our fates, but I'm saying no. He wants me to take your path. He's trying to make me forget about him, but I won't. I'll never forget. I decide my fate. Dan, I'm going to take from this life, and our chosen profession, whatever I can whenever I can. Not because I NEED to....but because I WANT to. I see that blank expression on your face. You don't understand? I'm changing the story. I'm playing the villain.
Bashin Dan: I'm not going to give up on you.
Cade: You should have let me die in the desert. Now go. Go back to the world you know. Stay away from the monsters.
Bashin Dan: I fight monsters Cade, and I have a tenancy to change the story myself. I say, we write our own stories. The door will be open for you Cade. You still have the key.
Cade: .....
Cade dropped his key to the Battle Spirits Dojo into his drink and walked away. Dan stared at it sadly. Later, he quietly walked the streets. He looked up at the sky, and tried to count the numerous stars. He made his way to Fourside Park and laid on the ground looking up. He was soon joined by someone else who laid beside him.
Hope Mach: It's beautiful out tonight huh?
Bashin Dan: Absolutely. It just got better too.
Hope Mach: I saw you moping your over here, so I thought I'd come check on you. Are you alright?
Bashin Dan: Cade was right.
Hope Mach: About?
Bashin Dan: Evil. It's getting so loud for some people they can't stand it anymore, but me, all I hear is love. All I hope for is love. It makes me wonder if I really do belong here.
Hope Mach: What do you mean here?
Bashin Dan: This place, this world. I stayed because I thought this was my new home, but now, now I'm not so sure anymore.
Hope Mach: You're so resolute at times, and others, you're quite shaky. You know the answers, you just want to believe in your friend so much, that you're trying to see his point of view. You're too polite to tell him how wrong he is.
Bashin Dan: You think so?
Hope Mach: I know so. You're too kind for your own good, but that's not a bad thing really. This world is a mess, you're right about that, but it needs more of you, not less. People can change. You can show people a better way.
Bashin Dan: I just want to be myself, enjoy the bonds I have with all of you, and do my best. I never thought of myself as someone who was supposed to show people a better way.
Hope Mach: You're a leader Dan. People gravitate to you. I did. You can't say you don't belong here, because-
Bashin Dan: You're here. Forgive me Hope, I didn't mean-
Hope Mach: I know. Again, you're too damn nice. Hehe. It's rubbing off on me. I used to wonder about your innocence, but I've come to adore it. Don't listen to Cade, and don't ever change. You be you, always and forever. That's the Dan, that I love.
Bashin Dan: ...I love you too Hope. What have I been saying. Of course this is where I belong.
Hope Mach: Right, this is your home.
Bashin Dan: No....you are.
Hope Mach: ....Dan.

Tack Angel woke up from a deep sleep in a weird place. The shimmering, oddly colored sky, and purple water seemed familiar.
Tack Angel: Wait...I know this place. I think it's somewhere around Threed? No, that can't be right. Man, my head hurts.
?: Oh come on buddy, you know where you are.
Tack Angel: Huh?
Trevor Mach was sitting next to Tack, with a big grin on his face.
Trevor Mach: Hey buddy!
Tack Angel: Trevor?! But how?! Is this-
Trevor Mach: Magicant? Yep! I bet you MagiCAN'T believe it huh?
Tack Angel: You can say that again, but please don't. One pun is enough. How am I here?
Trevor Mach: I'm in your head!
Tack Angel: What?! Get out of there!
Trevor Mach: Not literally man. I'm tuned into your subconscious. Not just you though. This is the place of creativity, and it turns out, it's where dreams come from. I've been screwing with vivid dreamers ever since I found out. Like, popping up in the backgrounds of their dreams and stuff. It's been a gas.
Tack Angel: Huh...well it's good to see you're alive.
Trevor Mach: More or less yeah.
Tack Angel: You uh....you coming back?
Trevor Mach: Trying to. Really working on it. Spending eternity here with Giygas isn't exactly ideal. The fragments of "V" rejoined the entity when we arrived. It's already out of his system, but this seemed like a one way trip.
Tack Angel: We wanted to ask Flying Man, but he's been gone for a while.
Trevor Mach: Oh, he's here too. I'd put him on, but this isn't exactly a telephone. He doesn't know how to leave either anymore. So many rules have changed. It's always hard for people to remember though, because of the way this all works. It sort of fades into the back of your mind, and you return to what you were doing before. You get back to normalcy. Know what I mean?
Tack Angel: ....I'm not sure I know what normal is anymore.
Trevor Mach: Ha! You got that right, but I wasn't going to say anything, you big weirdo.
Tack Angel: Well, it's good seeing you I suppose. Is that why you're here? To let me know you're alright? I can pass on a message to Tali, but you already got to her probably.
Trevor Mach: She's not been dreaming lately, so no chance. It doesn't matter anyways. You won't remember this when you wake up. I wish you would though. It's important buddy.
Tack Angel: Why? Is something happening with "V" again?
Trevor Mach: No man, that's done and dusted. We're through with it. He's trapped here forever. No, this about you personally, and how forgetful you are.
Tack Angel: Yeah, I know, I'm forgetting a lot of things.
Trevor Mach: No, I'm not talking the normal stuff. When you wake up, you'd see what I mean, but again, you won't remember this. Maybe you might a little. I don't know. You're forgetting some important stuff. It might be my fault. Just try to remember, and try to figure some things out when you wake up...which is happening right now. You're fading.
Tack Angel: Oh wow.,..gotta go I guess. Bye buddy. By the way, congratulations on Tali being pregnant!
Trevor Mach: ....WAIT WHA-
Tack suddenly woke up in the grass beside the Pirate Ship in the lake.
Tack Angel: Whoa! What?! What's going on here? How did I end up here? Again, WHERE ARE MY PANTS?!

Apple Kid: Welcome to Saturn City! We're back in Studio B for Neon Nights. Everyone else is in Fourside, so I'm joined by-
w00t: The FUTURE EBW President w00t! I'm here to see that the underprivileged and unappreciated get their fair shot. You know, like me, the biggest victim of these travesties.
Apple Kid: Right...right. We're also joined by *sigh* this...."old pal" of mine. Orange Man.
Orange Man: *tweeting* Sorry, I just had to tweet something, to give the people on twitter something to complain about. They hate that I can tweet. But I'm the best, definitely great at my job. Wonderful stuff.
Apple Kid: How is that Andonuts thinks you two could run anything?
w00t: Excuse me! I HAVE run EBW before!
Apple Kid: Your robot clone did, BETTER THAN YOU I will remind you!
w00t: You're one to talk. Oh that council was SO wonderful! You sat in your ivory tower eating burritos, debating on if you should actually DO something or not!
Apple Kid: ....It was a floating island...but point ma-
The screen cut to a distorted image.
DJ Professor K: Bringing it to you from the underground, it's DJ Professor K with Jet Set Radiooooo! Now, more than ever, your voice for the uprising. What are we rising up against? Not just greed, corruption, and the overall wicked way of the world, but the boredom and monotony in that ring fellas? You feel me? Tonight, my pals and gals are taking a belt that practically belongs to us. The Neon Championship. Benji boy, we've got no beef, and we love the classics, but your knight routine is a little "too classic" for a belt that best represents the roller bladers of The Legion. Tonight, it's on!
EBW: Neon Nights
Studio B, Saturn City
ENN
1. Women's Singles: BeShemoth beat Sylvie via DQ
-BeShemoth was overpowering Sylvie at every turn, when Eisenritter hit the ring, and went on the attack.
Apple Kid: Oh no! BeShemoth is outnumbered! She's holding her own! She's knocking them down one by on-oh their were just too many. Wait, what's this? There's a guy up in the rafters! This is Studio, so it's not that high up, I can easily see him
Starlight Knight: Unhand that maiden! This barbaric display must end! Eisenritter, you must be stopped!
Apple Kid: He's climbing down. They're all just so confused. This guy, whoever he is, is carrying BeShemoth away. Alright...well...I guess he's alright in my book then. Seriously, what was that?
2. Women's Singles: Eve beat "3G" Krissy Gale via Release Powerbomb -> Pin
-The body builder and simp magnet Eve took on "3G" Krissy Gale, who tried to join up with Eisenritter to no avail. Eve, who is actually Eve Eisen had help from her simps around the ring as she beat Gale with the Powerbomb. She then flexed in the ring while the simps threw money at her.
Apple Kid: Where's my wallet?
Orange Man: Apple my friend, do not quench the greedy thirst of that thot.
Apple Kid: ...But she's so thirsty for apple juice. She just has to be?
w00t: Pathetic.
3. Tag: Firebrand X/Subculture vs. Rude/Generator ended in a Double Count Out
-An intense match between the Crimson Bombers and The Legion, with Rude looking better than he had in years with his take down of both Subbie and X with the Rulebreaker STO. The match went to the outside, and a TOPE SUICIDA from Generator left them in a heap. No one was able to get in before the 10, and the match was ended in a Double Count out.
Apple Kid: See? That's the problem with that move. It's flashy. It gets a pop...with diminishing returns I might add, but it leaves both team unable to respond. I hope we see a rematch. Actually, I hope we see The Legion challenge for the Team Championships. Just make sure you make it No Rules or you don't use the TOPE SUICIDA!
4. EBW Neon Championship: Grind beat Benjamin(c) vs. Sling Blade x Rolling SSP -> Pin
-Main event time, as Benjamin put up the Neon Championship against Grind, in a significant clash of styles, but not a Styles Clash, cause Dan does that move. Benji did everything he could to keep Grind on the mat and in the corners, but a missed Spear had him holding his shoulder. The ref looked like he wanted to call off the match, but Benjamin stood back up and worked through it. Later Grind had Benji on the mat and went for the 450 Splash, but Benjamin rolled out of the way. Grind recovered in the air and rolled to safety, but Benji hit the ropes and came back hard with a Spear. 1-2-KICKOUT! Benji struggled to get to his feet, as Grind did the kip up and rolled to the ropes, hopping up quickly for a Sling Blade, that was followed by the Rolling SSP for the pin, the win, and the Neon Championship.
Apple Kid: Whoa! Grind did it! Grind's the new Neon Champion! Don't call it a comeback people, we've always known he could perform like this. Here comes Switchback, Rude, Generator, Poison Jam, and Kyoko the Love Shocker to celebrate. A big first step for The Legion in their plan to shake up the status quo. Exciting stuff. That show of sportsmanship to Benjamin. That was the biggest title reign for Benji so far, but we know you can never count out the Dan Club members. Who knows what he'll be doing ne-
Tess: Excuse me. I need to talk. I have a wonderful announcement to make. I don't care what Tali said before, about helping the roster to resist me. I don't care about that at all. It's pointless. It's moot. It DOESN'T MATTER! What does matter is the example I'm going to make on Xcite. I want everyone to watch this one. Camera man, GET THAT CAMERA ON ME! Listen! On the next Xcite, I will be DEMANDING that every woman on the roster come down around the ring. I will be standing in it. What THEY will be doing, is showing me that they are on board with the future of this division. The future of women's wrestling in general. They will ALL be KNEELING before me, to show that they are grateful, and that they understand.
Orange Man: Kneeling is for the weak, who have no respect for themselves, and get no respect from individuals who-
Tess: Shut it Orange Dick! You ladies hear me? You will be grateful, and you WILL kneel. If you don't kneel, then you are FIRED!

EBW World
Nerma: Welcome to EBW World! Nerma here as always, but maybe not for much longer, if I've heard right. She wants us all to KNEEL? Does that include me? I don't kneel. I just don't do it. For the paycheck? No, not for the paycheck. For a raise....how much? No, we're not going to talk about it. We're going to talk about Xcite. We're in new territory here with all the new champions and challengers. The Forgotten have dispersed, but their actions have changed so much, with Mav Valentine as the new EBW Triple Crown World Champion. He fought like hell to get it. I can't fault him for that. He'll be the "Special Referee" overseeing the main event of Xcite. It's a 6-Man Battle Royale for the right to take on Mav at the Great Eagleland Bash! We're also going to see a Challenge Championship match, and many other great bouts, but yes, we'll also see if the women of EBW will take the knee. Don't know if you'll want to miss that one or not.

Mav Valentine was working out, with the press taking pictures on all sides.
Mav Valentine: Go ahead, get your pictures, and ask your questions. All eyes are on me now huh? When I was telling you all I would be the best, and prove it, you were nowhere to be seen. Now here you are. Funny how that works right? Forgotten no more.
w00t: Exactly, and we should really get to talking you and I!
Mav Valentine: w00t? What do you want?
w00t: I want to talk about the future. Our future. They forgot about us, but when our benefactor gathered us together, we made a change. He left, unceremoniously, but he left an idea, and that is anyone can rise from the ashes to ascend to the top. That's what Mav and I are doing right? As President, I will acknowledge you as ACE of EBW over Trevor Mach, wherever he is, and Tack Angel, cause he's a weirdo, and of course Bashin Dan, the would be ACE of a new generation. Mav is the man, and I'm fully backing hi-
Mav Valentine: w00t, we were united with a cause, not cause I like you. I'm fine by myself. I don't want any help. What I want is a #1 Contender.
w00t: And you'll get it. I made sure you got to be the Special Referee, so show a little gratitude "buddy".
Mav Valentine: I know you fancy yourself a genius, but how exactly does this help me?
w00t: *whispers* Obviously it means you get to pick your opponent.
Mav Valentine: Is that right? Heh. Think I'll just watch it play out. I think I'm done here.
w00t: Wait! Come back! Haha, he was just kidding guys. We're super close he and I, and I'm all for pushing the future talent to the top, and giving them the exposure they deserve. Haha...ha....ugh.
Andonuts Lab
Jeff Andonuts was working relentlessly at his computer as Doctor Degrees entered the room.
Degrees: Heh, busy as always huh?
Jeff Andonuts: Huh?! What? What are you doing here?
Degrees: You called me. Remember? Told me it was important?
Jeff Andonuts: Oh! Right! Right! I have something to show you! Let me find it. But first...how are you doing?
Degrees: In what regard?
Jeff Andonuts: Haven't seen you since-
Degrees: The fusion? I'd call it zen like, but it has its moments of chaos, having the memories of two people, with all the joys and regrets involved. I was in a dark place before it happened. I'm glad to be whole I suppose. Knowing how it feels to have everything taken from me, and also still having all of it, makes me appreciate it all the more.
Jeff Andonuts: I see. It's great to have you back buddy. It seems the repercussions of our actions continue to be felt.
Degrees: Oh no, is the "Entity"-
Jeff Andonuts: Oh no. No, it's all under control. As far as I know, "Entity V" is completely trapped in Magicant, and he has consumed the Death entity in the process.
Degrees: How do you know that?
Jeff Andonuts: Because of what I'm going to show you. Lately, I felt like I was having some weird dreams, so I went back to a device I was working on years ago, that might actually record what my brain is showing me. I just assumed it was random synaptic firings following a completed REM cycle, but what I saw, was far more interesting.
Jeff pulled up a video that shocked Degrees.
Trevor Mach: Jeff! Jeff, you listen to me! My wife is pregnant, and you have GOT to get me out of here!
