The Angel Residence

Tack woke up from a horrible nightmare. He shot in bed and checked on Makoto, breathing a sigh of relief that she was still in one piece. He wiped the flop sweat from his brow and got up to go to the bathroom. He turned on the light and splashed some water on his face. As he ran his fingers through his hair, he felt it was little long...more than a little long...way too long. He looked up to see his hair had grown to his shoulders. It was long, curly, and greasy. Tack gagged and covered his mouth in shock. He backed into the wall, eyes bulging in horror at the sight on his head. He composed himself long enough to grab scissors and start cutting it off in a manic fervor. As he breathed a sigh of relief and looked down at the hair in the sink, he looked up at the mirror again to see the hair was still there, even curlier, and greasier.

Tack Angel: AH! MULLET WHY?!

Tack grabbed clippers and sought to shave his head bald. As the strands got caught in the clippers, he'd rip them out by hand, as blood started to drip down his face. He screamed at the pain, but kept ripping away at the hair on his head. He looked down at the sink, full of blood and hair, and finally thought he was done, until he looked up again to see the mullet still in tact, still curly, and still greasy. Tack screamed so loud it woke up Makoto. She burst out of bed as she heard him yell and gurgle in agony. She rushed to the bathroom to find a horrible sight. Tack had removed his scalp with his bare hand and tossed it across the room. He lay on the floor bleeding to death, but laughing. Makoto gasped.

Makoto Angel: TACK! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!

Tack Angel: I had to! I had to get rid of the mullet!

Makoto Angel: But Tack...it's....it's still there.

Tack Angel: What?

Makoto Angel: IT'S STILL THERE!

Tack Angel: NOOOOOOO!!!!

Joe Bob's Trailer

Joe Bob Briggs: Another hair raising tale there. Boy that Tack Angel guy sure has it rough. I read in a tabloid that they found he broke into an aquarium, and he was "waist deep" in calamari if you catch my drift, but can you really trust the tabloids? I mean did they ever find Bat Boy? Where's Bat Boy? I want to meet that kid already. What about that zombie killer Slayer? I'm out here in the woods for ENN, trying to track down this now mythic figure, although I'm pretty sure I saw him kill some people last year. I'm sure that was just some student the network came up with. You guys are always up to something huh? It's time for some fan mail I think. Where's the fan mail? Where's my mail girl? Do I get a mail girl? Someone call up the execs and let them I need a mail girl. Now I'm gonna watch some classic cinematic kino like Ghoulies...and Ghoulies 2...but you? You're gonna watch this. Roll it! I'm just saying I need some mail out here. It's getting boring. I'm drinking beer, watching Ghoulies, and I don't have a mail girl to bring me fan mail. I got tired of that e-mail trend, I thought it would end. We all make mistakes.

The Alison Chains Show

Alison Chains was standing in front of a shoddy green screen, staring blankly with a clown nose. The sounds of screaming could be heard faintly in the distance. For five straight minutes she stared, until suddenly honking her nose.

Alison Chains: *honk honk* Hi there! The EBW Women's Television Champion Alison Chains here, and I'm sure you're tuning in on ENN+ right now to see some build up to XP, or maybe some light humor. You want something to excite you, or at the very least bring a smile to your beautiful faces. You want to see a clown clown around huh? Well I'm not a clown...I'm here to tell you the truth children. Your life is worthless and limited. Any feelings you experience are from actions that have already happened, and are therefore meaningless. Your perception of reality was constructed for you. Life was created without meaning or reason. You will spend each day waiting for death. JUST KIDDING! *honk honk* Boy, I really had you there didn't I? HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! *starts bleeding from her mouth* Nah, we're going to have a great show tonight, aren't we Aoife? Aoife?

Aoife Aisling: ...Bitch...yer insane.

Alison Chains: No no, there is no label to define what I am. Just ask my therapist. No kids, we're not here to talk about my mental state, we're here to talk about *opens arms* "Family" you see!

Aoife Aisling: Oi...whatcha doin' wit yer hands ya divvy knacker?

Alison Chains: It spells out words when I open them. You can't....you can't see the rainbow? *sigh* Aoife, how old were you when you realized that the Time Eater was responsible for everything wrong with the world.

Aoife Aisling: The what?!

Alison Chains: Forget it. Time gets away from us, and it's important to remember your family in times like this, because who else is going to let you sleep on the couch when you forgot to pay rent for six months, and your childhood bed room was turned into storage space. Look everyone, this is my mother Edna [Redacted] and yes [Redacted] is in fact my real last name. She's here with a message for everyone out there.

Edna [Redacted]: Hello there my fellow femmy friends, I'm Edna, pround c*bleep*t and even prouder of what my c*bleep*t made.

Alison Chains: Aw jeez Mom!

Edna [Redacted]: As a mother I've spent years trying to get Alison here to be a proud, charismatic....agent of the feminist movement. I used puppets like Connie the Consent Cuttlefish and Terry the Tampon Turtle. It didn't take, but that's OK because I love my little girl no matter what! That's what family is for!

Alison Chains: That's right, and I wanted to make sure Aoife Aisling felt the same love and affection that I do in having a family! That's why I'm proud to say that YOU'RE in my family now Aoife!

Aoife Aisling: Huh? No...no that's quite alright. I'm good really. I'm just going to leave the room. Why...why is this door locked from the inside. Hello? *knock knock* Can I get out of here please? Anybody?

Alison Chains: FAMILY!

Aoife Aoife: NOOOO!

EBW: IGNITION
Fourside Arena, Fourside
ENN+

0. IGNITION Singles: Point Man vs. Tony Wonder
-Another match for Tony Wonder, and another interference by El Mago. The master magician kept appearing all over the crowd, confusing Tony Wonder, as he and Razzle Dazzle attempted their theatrics. Point Man used the opportunity to trap Tony in the Cobra Clutch and submitted him.
Winner: Point Man via Cobra Clutch -> Submission

Tony Wonder: Hey! El Mago! Tony Wonder is sorry OK!? He's sorry! Whatever he's done to you he's sorry! What, so you don't think I'm as good of a magician?! I don't want to go back to the Shadow Realm! Please I'm sorry!

El Mago: Solo deseo convertirte en un mejor mago y luchador, para que podamos formar un equipo.

Tony Wonder: Huh?

El Mago extended his hand to Tony Wonder, and the confused Tony shook it. He motioned for Tony to follow him, and he and Razzle Dazzle complied, leaving Cadmus very confused.

0. IGNITION Tag: Randy no Kachi/LG Rod vs. CP Munk/Horace Angel
-The Heel Besties needed a win, and they finally managed to turn things around when facing the DVNO B-Team. CP Munk was capable as a "somehow" former World Champion, but he had to pull the weight for two, as the short short short short zoomer Horace Angel, was hit by a very low to the mat No Kachi Cutter from RnK for the pin.
Winners: Randy no Kachi[o]/LG Rod via No Kachi Cutter on Horace Angel -> Pin

0. IGNITION ENN+ Championship: Benjamin(c) vs. Isiah Muscle
-Main event time, as Benjamin put the ENN+ Championship on the line against Perfection's youngest member Isiah Muscle. The Mystic Bout Machine put Isiah through the wringer for the most part, but the showboating and defiant young muscle refused to be pinned. Kinniku Mike tried to get involved, but ate a Spear from Benji on the outside to a huge reaction. Seto Kaiba appeared late in the match and tried to bribe the referee, who turned it down, but looked away long enough for Rude to remove the turnbuckle padding from the second rope. Benji tried to Spear Isiah into that corner, but hit his head on the exposed turnbuckle. Isiah took advantage, lifting Benji for the Muscle Buster and pinning him for the ENN+ Championship.
Winner: Isiah Muscle via Muscle Buster -> Pin -> NEW ENN+ Champion!

Backstage

Good News Gary: GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! Good News Gary is getting paid tonight! That's Good News to me anyways. I'm joined by Mav Valentine of Blood 4 Blood, who has been targeting Razorblade as of late. You even went back to VBW and challenged Razorblade for the title. That's coming up soon. Want to talk about it? Wait what? World Champion Trevor Mach?

Trevor Mach: He wants to do a lot of things. He wants to have a party. He wants to wreck shit. He wants to beat Razorblade's ass. He especially wants to sit down with a cup of hot cocoa and watch Murder She Wrote. Rest in Power Angela Lansbury!

Mav Valentine: ...I don't know about all of those, but he's got the picture well enough. You want me talk, I'll talk, but I'll be donating blood for the VBW Championship soon enough. See, I was brought up in VBW. I'll admit I watched this guy over here come in and win big quite a few times back in the day. I was the kid in the crowd with the blue baseball hat, but not that one, that one, or that one. I was just off screen, but I was there. VBW suffered some hard times though and had to shut down for a bit. EBW absorbed what was left, and when VBW started back up, they started from scratch, with a title I wanted more than anything at the time. I am a former VBW Champion, and if I wasn't a former VBW Champion then I never would have been the EBW World Champion. I respect where I came from. I have scars and nightmares about the battles I fought in VBW. Razorblade is treating it like damn joke! So I'm going to make it costly for him.

Good News Gary: Bold strategy so far. You've followed him to VBW, and you've gotten involved with him here in EBW. If all else fails, what's Plan B?

Trevor Mach: We don't have a Plan B. We don't have a Plan A. We have no idea what we're doing! We're just doing it!

Mav Valentine: ...I feel like that's a simplification of it with all due respect. I have some semblance of a plan.

Trevor Mach: Oh...my bad.

Mav Valentine: ...AND MY PLAN IS TO KICK HIS ASS!

Trevor Mach: YEAAAH!

Good News Gary: Well Blood 4 Blood seemed pumped up. Champ, you and Subculture have the main event against the Stygian Inquisition. You ready for what's sure to be an intense confrontation?

Trevor Mach: No.

Good News Gary: Huh?

Trevor Mach: People always ask that. Are you ready for this? Are you ready for that? I just wanted to say no once and see how it felt.

Good News Gary: Oh...so you ARE ready then?

Trevor Mach: ...You just need to hear me say it don't you?

Good News Gary: Kind of.

Trevor Mach: ...I'M READY!

Good News Gary: *sigh of relief* Oh Good News!

Trevor Mach: Assessor? *flips middle finger* Assess this. The KO Bombers are going to hit you so hard, you'll claim to be a foreign country under attack and suddenly receive a billion dollars! Wait...that might be going TOO far....or not far enough. Gonna workshop it with Subbie. He's back, he's bad, he's green, and I'm BAD!

Mav Valentine: He's...he's in a good mood I guess. I think he got eight hours of sleep or something.

Miss Xtra: No! I have it on good authority that he went home to celebrate with his wife, and she wore flannel and a cowgirl hat, which is something she NEVER does, but she knows it's his thing, cause she was playing cowgirl...in more ways than one.

Mav Valentine: ...How could you POSSIBLY know that?

Miss Xtra: ...Well...I haven't moved to Smalltown if THAT's what you're implying.

Mav Valentine: I didn't imply that at all! You know if you want to get down I'm right here! I'm single and ready to mingle!

Miss Xtra: ...Will it get me into Blood 4 Blood?

Mav Valentine: Would I be a bastard if I pretended it would?

Miss Xtra: ...Probably?

Mav Valentine: ...I'm thinking...you're like really hot.

Miss Xtra: Oh!


"Yngwie Malmsteen - Only the Strong"



Larry Grim: Welcome to the Fourside folks, it's XP again, but it's apparently our Season Premiere...AGAIN!

Apple Kid: We want to thank the fans for making Xcite the most watched episode ever this week, and I want to ask HOW, but I'm slowly becoming numb to the absurdity. Let's hope it doesn't escalate to compensate eh?

Larry Grim: It's gonna.

Apple Kid: Yeah I know.

Larry Grim: It was a big show, where we met The Preacher, who had a message to send, and The Assessor helped get that across, by leap frogging into a #1 Contender position. He wants to size up the new EBW World Champion Trevor Mach, who has had his run ins with plenty of monsters over the years, but have you seen THIS monster? He has hooks stretching his face open. Sadomasochistic psychos that make the Star Prince's antics look almost tame by comparison.

Apple Kid: Almost.

Larry Grim: We also saw Hope Mach defend the Women's World Champion in the Bushido Den. It was the first match of that kind for the women, and a big moment considering the most viewed Xcite and all. Hope has had big shoes to fill since lifting the title from Christina, but Christina....well she wants those shoes back? She stepped up for that rematch we've all been waiting for, but she got interrupted by Darkness Aoi and The Nameless. The Women's World Tag Team Champion has history with both Hope AND Christina, while The Nameless is a dangerous wild card. We know who she keeps company with, so you know to expect the unexpected.

Apple Kid: I'm still shocked that Ra of all people turned out to be the one running this Stygian Inquisition. I used to know the guy. He was always chill and laid back. I didn't know if he was meant for wrestling because of how much of a pacifist he was. How you go from there to here is beyond me, maybe beyond any of us. Whatever he's experienced, I'd like to opt out of knowing about it.

Larry Grim: Probably for the best. We have enough horrors to deal with ourselves, like the condition of Makoto Angel. Now, our good friend is still at the hospital, and her condition has been kept under wraps, but we're told that a solution is being "worked out" whatever that means. I sure wish I could see everything like I used to.

Apple Kid: That monster w00t had horrible things to say about her on Xcite, and in the process made it clear that whatever Tack is doing in Deep Darkness, he intends to follow him. In fact, not long after Xcite, we got this message from w00t on the airplane, as he disregarded the rules about having your cell phone on in an airplane. Let's take a look.

-

w00t: Perhaps I was a little...rude earlier...about the things that I said. Makoto is going to be dead soon. You never say bad things about the dead, only good. So when they say Makoto Angel is dead, and I will say good. Hahaha! I got a lot on my mind. It isn't easy carrying around this genius you know? Trevor Mach as World Champion hasn't sat right with me. It could be the airline meal, but I'm pretty sure it's that fact. Zyro Kurogane learned a valuable lesson in that exchange, and that's to use every tool in your arsenal to defeat a man like the "Bad Man" at any cost. Skill will take you places, but cunning and ruthlessness get you to the top. A teachable moment for the prodigy of Perfection. He'll get it. He's got the right stuff, and best of all, the right teacher. However, the story isn't over between myself and Mach either, and he talks about that wheel and how it all comes around. It will come around sooner than later. I just need to take care of some light work in Deep Darkness. If you survive the Stygian Inquisition, then we'll meet in the ring again. Count on it.

-

Apple Kid: ...Huh...why is he going to Deep Darkness?

Larry Grim: Cause Tack is going to Deep Darkness.

Apple Kid: Why is Tack going to Deep Darkness?

Larry Grim: Don't worry about it.

Apple Kid: Oh OK.

Larry Grim: We have a big show tonight, because our second show isn't an hour long on a death slot. We're starting with Sal Paradise taking on Vape, and going all the way to determining a new #1 Contender for the Women's World Championship and then a tag match pitting Blood 4 Blood's KO Bombers reuniting to take on The Assessor and The Witness! Let's kick off this OTHER Season Premiere!

EBW: XP "Another Season Premiere!?"
Fourside Arena, Fourside
ENN

1. Singles: Sal Paradise vs. Vape
-Sal was running circles around Vape in the opener, but the big man managed to use his weight and size to slam the former World Champion around the ring. A good showing for Vape, with Jammer being his accountabilibuddy on the outside keeping him focused. Sal couldn't get the Neckbreaker on Vape, but he did finally get him to land on his back like a turtle on his shell. Sal went up top and hit the Perfect Sky to get the pinfall.
Winner: Sal Paradise via Perfect Sky -> Pin

Larry Grim: Valiant effort by Vape, but Sal Paradise is having a great comeback. Glad to see him in his element again.

Apple Kid: I need to figure out how to impress ladies like Larry does. Minako deserves a studly Apple MAN I think.

Larry Grim: OR...she might love you just the way you are?

Apple Kid: ...No...no that can't be right.

2. Women's Singles: Aoife Aisling vs. Gianna Rambaldi
-Aoife Aisling came out rattled after her "experience" with Alison Chains on IGNITION, and that didn't help her against the elegant and competitive Gianna Rambaldi. Aisling wanted another shot at Chains, but wouldn't be getting the opportunity just yet, as Gianna Rambaldi hit the Violet Excellence to get the win.
Winner: Gianna Rambaldi via Violet Excellence -> Pin

Larry Grim: With that win, Gianna Rambaldi might be on the way to a Television Championship shot. She's been keeping her head down, not taking sides, and just focusing on the in ring work, and it's paying off.

Apple Kid: She's quite pretty...not as pretty as Minako, but I'm biased. *sigh* Minako.

Larry Grim: Ask her out.

Apple Kid: ...

Larry Grim: You started sweating almost immediately.

Apple Kid: ...I'm a perspiring Apple yes.

Larry Grim: Huh...well NEXT we're going to see an in ring return for an EBW veteran. It's Rude everyone, but first...let's hear from him!

-

Rude: ...Everyone wants to know why I'm back and working for Kaiba. Isn't it obvious? Look at my job before wrestling. Money talks and bullshit walks. Kaiba wants an enforcer, and he's got the cash for it. It's as simple as that. Bashin Dan, they say you're the ACE around here, yet I don't see a title around your waist, and last time I checked, my employer is the King of Games. Seems to me like you're just another would be pup in the den of wolves. Keep it up kid, and you're going to get hurt. I get a bonus if that happens.

-

3. 6-Man Tag: Bashin Dan/Jammer/Jaden Yuki vs. Seto Kaiba/Razorblade/Rude
-Jaden Yuki returned to action with a heavily wrapped up knee to team with Dan Club against the growing group now known as Kaiba Corp. Razorblade and Rude were definite members, while Television Champion Hazen looked on from the stage. Hard hitting affair that saw Rude step back into the ring for the first time in a while, and he hadn't missed a beat. Seto Kaiba kept his distance from Jaden and Dan, while Dan himself looking to lock up with the EBW veteran in Rude. Late in the match Mav Valentine came out to get into it with Razorblade again. Rude stomped at Jaden's knee and forced him to tag in Bashin Dan. He pretended to do the honorable thing and shake his hand, but instead thumbed him in his recently injured eye, and hit the Rulebreaker to take him to the mat for the 1-2-3. A surprise pinfall loss for Dan and huge win for the returning enforcer Rude.
Winners: Seto Kaiba/Razorblade/Rude[o] via Rulebreaker on Bashin Dan -> Pin  

Apple Kid: Rude with the Rulebreaker on Dan! He went for the injured eye! Dick move Rude come on!

Larry Grim: Seto Kaiba and his growing contingent know how to target weakness, we've seen that with Jaden still favoring one leg, and Dan needing to protect that eye. Razorblade was kept out of the ring by Mav Valentine though, so that match was just all over the place. Up next, we have the #1 Contender match for the Women's World Championship, and we're joined by Hope Mach, who is going to be watching this one closely.

Hope Mach: I'm going to watch it at the same distance as you are Larry.

Larry Grim: No, I meant-

Hope Mach: I know, I'm not super literal like my Dad. Just a joke. Yeah, I'm watching like a hawk, but not a battlehawk, cause Dad had to get a tattoo.

Larry Grim: Hmm?

Hope Mach: Don't worry about it. Inside joke. My preference would be another match with Christina. She broke records as World Champion, and she carried the division on her back, I'll give her credit for that. Plus, who doesn't want more Mach vs. Angel action, don't answer that. I want more Mach vs. Angel action. It would be the best match, and I want to prove myself against the best. That being said, I do owe Darkness Aoi a few lumps, and The Nameless has me intrigued.

Apple Kid: She has me freaked out.

Hope Mach: Yeah, but me saying MINAKO freaks you out.

Apple Kid: ...Good point.

Hope Mach: Hehe. This is gonna be fun. Anyone got popcorn?

Larry Grim: I do.

Apple Kid: YOU DO?!

Larry Grim: Yeah, I bring snacks.

Apple Kid: I wish I knew that sooner.

4. EBW Women's World #1 Contender: Darkness Aoi vs. Christina Angel vs. The Nameless
-The semi-main saw Darkness Aoi, Christina Angel, and The Nameless face off for a shot at the World Championship at Demon Boogie 2. The Nameless was unpredictable in her movements, and mostly let Christina and Aoi do the fighting. When she got involved, it was vicious and bloody. She seemed to target Christina specifically, trying to bloody her up at every opportunity, while Aoi took complete advantage, not caring HOW she won, just that she could get the win. That's exactly what happened. The Nameless clawed into Christina's head and face, leaving her bloody on the mat, before crawling away into the crowd, that parted as she passed by. Darkness Aoi took advantage, trapping the bleeding Christina in a Crossface, as the referee called an end to the match, as EMTs and Hope Mach quickly rushed to the ring to tend to Christina.
Winner: Darkness Aoi via Crossface -> Referee Stoppage

Apple Kid: Oh that was bad. That wasn't wrestling from The Nameless. That was practically attempted murder.

Larry Grim: I hope she's going to be all right. Medical science has advanced so much to deal with all the cuts and openings that the wrestlers suffer in the ring. They do wonders to keep the scars down, that slice on the cheek looks overly nasty. I don't know if that's going away any time soon.

Apple Kid: Darkness Aoi, the Women's World Tag Team Champion, has a chance now to win the World Championship as well, when she faces Hope at Demon Boogie 2. The opportunist struck again, and The Nameless let it happen. See, I was expecting her to win, not to try and kill Christina. I guess I underestimated how messed up that girl really is.

Larry Grim: Well folks, we have one more match left. It's the KO Bombers taking on The Stygian Inquisition in tag team action! Let's go to the main event!

5. Tag: Trevor Mach/Subculture vs. The Assessor/The Witness
-The KO Bombers returned to action against the Stygian Inquisition, as The Auditor and The Preacher watched on from the stage. All four men went at it right from the bell, then battled to the outside. The shooters of B4B knew they were here to brawl. The Witness was thrown over the announced table by Mach. The commentary team questioned whether it was wise for Mach to have this match so close to his World Title defense against The Assessor at Demon Boogie 2. Mach hit The Witness inside the ring with a Hagen suplex, then tagged in Subculture. Subbie nailed The Assessor with a straight punch and a huge uppercut. Assessor made the tag and immediately took Subculture to the mat, then hit him with a running knee. Subculture blocked a suplex attempt, then hit one of his own on The Assessor, but it seemed to barely phase him. The Witness tagged back in and Subculture immediately took him to the corner with hurting bombs, but The Witness gouged at the eyes, and started punching back, working slowly, methodically, and painfully. The Assessor assisted The Witness by taking out Mach on the apron. They hit a double team move on Subculture, then went for a cover but only managed two. Subculture caught Assessor with an uppercut and a lariat to even the odds, but The Assessor shook them off. Subculture made his way toward Mach and finally made the tag. Mach took The Witness out with a cutter, then hit a running knee onto The Assessor. Mach perched The Witness on the top rope and raked his back before hitting a superplex. Mach hit a Trevorplex! but The Witness kicked out of the pin attempt. The Assessor came in to assist The Witness as the two double teamed Mach. Subculture cut them off and saved Mach. All four men faced off in the center of the ring as the crowd went wild. B4B hit a pair of clotheslines to take down The Stygian Inquisition. The two then hammered away with a series of kicks and knees to the face. The Inquisition fought back, and brought out the barbed wire to instantly lead to a DQ. The Witness trapped Subculture, wrapping him to a turnbuckle, as The Assessor wrapped barbed wire around Trevor's neck and threw him over the top rope, trying to choke and possibly kill him. Little Mac, Mav Valentine, and Picky Minch ran down to the ring, as did security to break it up and pull Trevor Mach out of the barbed noose.
Winners: Trevor Mach/Subculture via DQ

Apple Kid: Holy shit! Sorry, but wow! That's gruesome! The Stygian Inquisition are not playing around! People are getting hurt, and someone could get killed!

Larry Grim: Tis the season for gruesome beatings, not Christmas, so don't put that tree up yet you absolute psychopaths. Well the road to a spooky time at Demon Boogie 2 continues, so we'll see you there, and hopefully so will the EBW World Champion. Ouch.

Deep Darkness

Tack Angel wiped the sweat from his brow as he looked at the map given to him by Pirate Bill. He had been dropped off in the jungle, but had to complete the next part of his journey on his own. Look ahead at the jungle with machete in hand, he clutched a picture of Makoto in the other and slowly made his way into the wild. Someone was following not too far behind.

Saturn City

The streets are empty and decrepit, the scorched remains of a horrible calamity are all that is left of mankind and it's brief time on the Earth. Wind blew newspapers across the street, with the headline reading "Earth is Doomed" in bold letters. No one was left alive to wonder who actually took the time to put that paper together, knowing how pointless it would be....no one...except one person. A sewer grate began to move, as a figure peered up and around the area, before finally climbing out. It was Bashin Dan.

Bashin Dan: Hello?! Hellooooo! Anyone! Please answer if you're out there! Uh...any Green and Retired guys left?! Wow...I really am the only one left. Hope...the guys...they're all gone.

Bashin Dan walked up to the remains of the Saturn Cafe, and turned in horror as he saw the skeletons of his friends in their usual seats. He looked down to see he was standing on the remains of Larry Grim, and quickly jumped off them. It just sort of looked like usual Larry considering he was already a skeleton. Dan poked him with a stick to make sure he was truly dead.

Bashin Dan: How the heck does Death die? Stupid Cloud of Darkness! You killed the AAAAAALL! Why? Why am I still alive? Why am I the last one standing? What do I have to live for?

Dan fell to his knees in agony, crying as he wondered what he'd do now. That's when he looked up and saw a beacon of hope in front of him. The Battle Spirits shop was still in tact.

Bashin Dan: Of course. OF COURSE! Battle Spirits! That's always been my reason for living! It's still here! I'm still here! I can play Battle Spirits forever! I have all the cards, and all the time in the world! It's just me and Battle Spirits forever! Boy, I can't wait to get my hands on-

That's when Dan looked down at his hands for the first time. It was hard to see in the dark sewer, and it hurt when he climbed out, but for the first time he noticed his hands were ashen and charred. As if on cue, his hands disintigrated the moment he laid eyes on them.

Bashin Dan: That's....that's not fair. There was time now! THERE WAS TIME NOOOOOW!

Joe Bob's Trailer

Joe Bob Briggs: A little scifi horror on that one folks? Why was the Earth empty? What happened? How did Dan survive? Who cares, you people really over think these things. Sometimes a little scare is all you need. You got the plot, the setup, and the pay off. A classic tale retold. That kid is obsessed with cards isn't he? I mean it's 2022. I learned how to use this damn touch phone, and I learned about wireless this and blue tooth that, but I guess you can't beat the classics huh? I can dig that. Your ol' favorite host Joe Bob is here once again, searching for the zombie Slayer on the road to Demon Boogier as I call it, but the official name is Demon Boogie 2. I didn't find the zombie Slayer yet, but I did find these zombies shambling about. One of them doesn't look quite right though. What is that old saying? One of these things is not like the others? One of these things just doesn't belong.

Mr. Herb: One of these things is both Green and Retired.

Joe Bob Briggs: Oh! It's the dude from the flick! Green and Retired huh? Must be nice, but what are you behind that mask?

Mr. Herb: I am nothing except Green and Retired. It's all I am, and I'm trying to teach these guys what it's like to be both Green and Retired. They are wearing green shorts, and nothing is more retired than being dead, but they have to learn what it truly means to be both Green AND Retired. Come on guys, repeat after me. I am Green and Retired! I am Green and Retired! I am Green and Retired!

Joe Bob Briggs: ...I don't think they can talk partner, but that's a real good try. Folks, I got the living dead right in front of me, but the guy in the green mask is the scary one. We'll see you again as we head on over to Demon Boogier, and HOPEFULLY I can find that zombie Slayer. It's a Halloween tradition at this point right? Did he seriously kill those people last year? This job needs hazard pay.



The camera showed the set was empty. Another Lakitu flew down the hall and found Miss Xtra sleeping in catering.

Miss Xtra: Zzzzz....Zzzzz...Ooo Daddy Trevor, I don't know if I can fit that all down my throat, but I want you to choke me with it. Hehe..heh...Zzzzzz.

The Lakitu poked Miss Xtra with a stick .

Saturn Cafe

Jammer, Vape, and Benjamin were sitting at the table, having just seen the Joe Bob show.

Jammer: That's ridiculous. To imply we'd be sitting here when the world ends! Outrageous!

Benjamin: ...We might be.

Vape: Dude...we would be.

Jammer: ...*sigh* Yeah I know. Oh well. At least we'd be among friends. This is our sanctuary, where we don't have to deal with people we can't sta-

Bashin Dan: Hey guys, I brought a new prospective member to the Dan Club today.

Jaden Yuki: What up yo! I'm Jaden Yuki, and I'm absolutely-

Jammer: Out of your mind! What the hell Dan! This guy? We've been helping him out, but as a member of Dan Club? Are you kidding me?

Bashin Dan: I read you 100 percent. Friends, that's about to change. I am witness to the fact that Jaden Yuki has a heart of gold.

Jaden Yuki: It's true bro! I'm a real sweetheart!

Benjamin: It's true...I can see the light radiating off of him!

Vape: That's the ceiling lights.

Benjamin: Oh. Still though!

Jammer: ...You think I'm just gonna let this guy join our group? We're the longest running group in EBW. We're the cream of the crop! The symbol of shattering the glass ceiling. It's gonna take SO MUCH MORE THAN- *phone sounds* hang on I got a text from Jenny.



Jammer: Um...um...um....

Benjamin: His nose is bleeding.

Vape: I know that nose bleed.

Jammer: I need to uh...I need to go now. RIGHT NOW! Welcome to the club Jaden. That's my seat, don't sit there. I gotta go!

Jaden Yuki: Well that was hella easy!

Bashin Dan: Have a seat Jaden. We need to talk about Kaiba Corp, and we need to be very serious about it.

Benjamin: Why are you wearing oven mitts Dan?

Vape: Did you see Joe Bob's movie?

Bashin Dan: .....

Chosenland Hotel

Warden Peach: Peach here, and you know what we love in Chosenland? Money. In the Mushroom Kingdom, we had so many coins, they practically fell from the sky. If that happened here, many men with hats and beards would scurry to collect it. Money is God after all, and we need to embrace it with all of our hearts. Wealth makes the world go around, and you need it to have any sort of power or influence over the way the world works. Because if money is God, and you have all the money, then you are a God yourself. That's the Chosenland ethos, and we're proud to live by it. We love having money, and we will spend the money of the goys when we need to someone to fight our proxy wars. We'd NEVER do that ourselves, because then we'd lose wealth. Also, do you like taxes? Well no one likes paying them, but imposing them on others? That's a high like no other. We came up with the concept of taxes. Barely able to make ends meet, but you have that pesky tax to pay too? You can thank Chosenland for that. Hey, it's the just price YOU pay for roads, freedom, and the right to be able to pay taxes. Here in Chosenland, you too can acquire wealth by taking part in the most horrific attrocities known to mankind. It's the kind of thing that makes you lose faith in humanity, which is a good thing, because you should place your faith in money. Money is God in Chosenland, and not the dead Chosen that we betrayed to the Empire.

Seiya Kou: Another propeganda piece? Jeeze.

Usagi & Seiya sat there in the hotel demoralized by their experience so far in Chosenland. Usagi then squinted her face hard in thought, scratched her head and pulled on her ponytail. Suddenly, Usagi stood up.

Usagi Tsukino: Seiya! I got an idea. Come with me.

Usagi grabbed Seiya's arm, to which Seiya was not ready for and stumbled as they both walked out of their room and out of the hotel. Usagi was dragging Seiya out into the street as the Chosen around them laughed at the situation.

Seiya Kou: Uh Bun Head, are you gonna tell me what your plan is?

Usagi Tsukino: Just follow my lead.

Seiya was perplexed by what was going on until he looked ahead and saw where they were going.

Seiya Kou: Whoa whoa whoa, Bun Head. That's the Grand Palace, are you sure you know what you're doing?

Usagi Tsukino: I got this.

Usagi & Seiya walked up to the gates of the Grand Palace of Chosenland but were stopped by the guards at the gate.

Guard: What do you goyim want?!

Usagi Tsukino: My name is Usagi Tsukino, Princess of the Moon and ally of the Crystal King Tack Angel. I have come here to make a proposal.

The guard knocked on the door and a sliding window opened, the guard relayed the information and the one behind the window closed it. Moments later, the window opened again as the guard received a response.

Guard: Lucky you, you may enter. Be on your best behavior Princess.

The guards opened the gates and let the two inside. Usagi with determination on her face marched in with Seiya close behind keeping a watchful eye. As they walked the saw Dark Chocolate Elves in subjugation, forced to carry heavy items, carrying Chosen on palanquins, being whipped for entertainment, some even forced to fight each other, and a few being forced to give sexual relief in public display. Finally they arrive at the main hall and are let in. There Usagi & Seiya see Warden Peach in conversation with a man on the throne.

Guard: Grand Nagus sir! I present to you these goyim, Princess Usagi Tsukino of the Moon and her consort.

Warden Peach: What are you two doing here?

Grand Nagus: Now now, don't worry. I invited them in.

Peach looked in disbelief as Seiya's eyes darted around the room, looking at the many guards with weapons ready.

Grand Nagus Zek: So, Moon Princess... What can I? The Great Grand Nagus of Chosenland Zek, do for you?

Usagi Tsukino: Grand Nagus, I have come to make a proposal.

Zek looked up and down at Usagi, noting her tight and revealing kunoichi attire. Exhaling in sight of the petite body and curves, he licked his lips and spoke.

Grand Nagus Zek: I will hear you out, make your proposal.

Usagi Tsukino: I would request the opportunity that you release all the Dark Chocolate Elves in Chosenland into the remaining territory of Resdayn.

Warden Peach and the guards burst out in laughter.

Warden Peach: Are you daft, little one? You may not have the body for it, but you certainly are a bimbo for requesting something like that.

Usagi Tsukino: I know what I said, and I'm not a bimbo. I'm requesting an opportunity for the Dark Chocolate Elves be released.

Warden Peach: You're wasting your time, get o-

The Grand Nagus raised his hand to silence Peach and the guards, her lowered it back down and readjusted on his throne.

Grand Nagus Zek: And what would you have in mind, hmm?

Zek looked up and down at Usagi, wet his lips, and adjusted his long ears.

Usagi Tsukino: A sporting event. If I win, you release the Dark Chocolate Elves in Chosenland back into Resdayn.

Grand Nagus Zek: And if we win?

Usagi Tsukino: I will relinquish my crown and give the Moon Kingdom to the Chosen.

Seiya Kou: Bun Head?!

Grand Nagus Zek: Peh! Worthless! There's no profit in the Moon. It's just a bunch of rocks.

Warden Peach: Nice try girly.

Usagi chuckled and waved her finger.

Usagi Tsukino: Ah, but I'm not finished. You've not heard of the sporting event I'm requesting.

Grand Nagus Zek: There's no sport that would be good enough.

Usagi Tsukino: What about a sport that could bring in profits?

The ears of the Grand Nagus and even the guards started to wiggle, Peach started to worry as she saw the Grand Nagus enthralled at the statement.

Grand Nagus Zek: Profits huh? How big are we talking?

Usagi gave a huge grin at Peach.

Usagi Tsukino: I'm talking big ratings, advertisements, merchandise, betting. The whole shebang.

The ears of the Grand Nagus started to wiggle into overdrive.

Grand Nagus Zek: So uh, what sport are we talking about?

Usagi Tsukino: Have you ever heard of a sport called Keijo?

???

???: Thank God you've returned. I need your help. There's a great deal of history that you should know, but I'm afraid that... I must continue my writing. Here.

The man hands the teenage boy his journal

The Man: Most of what you'll need to know is in there. Keep it well hidden.

The Man picks up a book

The Man: For reasons you'll discover, I can't send you to [You can't hear what he says] with a way out, but I can give you this. It appears to be a Linking Book, back here to [You can't hear what he says], but it's actually a one-man prison. You'll need it, I'm afraid, to capture Gehn.

The Man hands the teenage boy the Prison Book

The Man: Once you've found Catherine, signal me, and I'll come with a Linking Book to bring us back.

The man writes in the Book in his hand, then closes it, opens it to its first page, and holds it up, showing the blurred descriptive panel

The Man: There's also a chance, if all goes well, that I might be able to get you back to the place that you came from. Until then.

The Man motions to the boy to touch the book, and in doing so, the boy disappears.

Miss Xtra: Miss Xtra here, for some XTRA EBW in your life! Eh? Eh? I'm nailing that catchphrase. Really refining it. I'll get there eventually....or I won't. Do you really care? I care about other things in my life right now, like my special guest who is sitting just off camera! Mav Valentine came to see me again! Hiya Mav!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Hey.

Miss Xtra: Do you see me?!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Yeah.

Miss Xtra: You see me doing my show?!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Uh-huh.

Miss Xtra: So glad you're visiting me!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Yep.

Miss Xtra: EBW is truly the place for people to find people I think, even though it's technically in the ENN rules that intercompany "coupling" is prohibited. That being said, television and movie executives traffic and molest children so they don't get to hold the moral high ground on me!

Mav Valentine: *spits drink* .... *off camera*

Miss Xtra: What? It's true! We all know it! If you watched Retro Jones, he'd tell you all about it! That guy used to work here! He used to be a hippie too! He was a yuppie once, and he had to get an "87" tattoo removed from his forehead. See I keep up! I keep up! We have a short but sweet one for you tonight. Nothing super major going on behind the scenes, as everyone is prepping to go to Threed. It's no easy thing running shows in Threed. Ask VBW about that, right Mav?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Yep.

Miss Xtra: Am I annoying you?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Nope.

Miss Xtra: Don't you just want to choke me?

Mav Valnetine: *off camera* Not at all.

Miss Xtra: Why not?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* What?!

Miss Xtra: Hehe. His face turned red! People, the season premieres are over, but ENN wants to keep the rating bonanza going, and what better way than by decarling that the next XP is THE PLAYOFFS! Since the playoffs for sportsball seems to interfere with wrestling so damn much, let's mess with the ratings of sportsball with our OWN playoffs! What do you think about that?! What's going to be different? NOTHING! It's just XP, but it's a good one! We'll be in Threed to see Dan Club clash with Kaiba Corp. in an all out 8-Man Tag for the right to challenge Perfection for the World Team Rings. Remember those? Who will be Seto Kaiba's 4th man? Will it be Television Champion Hazen? Darkness Aoi will take on Jenny James in singles action, and The Stygian Inquisition will take on Blood 4 Blood in the main event! That'll be a bloody one, but Mav won't be in it, and why is that Mav?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* I'm really just here to see you.

Miss Xtra: Oh come on! Why won't you be there?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* I'll be at VBW shows all weekend before I take on Razorblade for the VBW Championship the same night as Demon Boogie.

Miss Xtra: That's right! Mav is standing up for the promotion that got him to where he is now. He's got a chance to become a WORLD CHAMPION AGAIN!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* I wouldn't really call the VBW Championship a WORLD Championship persa-

Miss Xtra: What?

Mav Valentine: *off camera* Nothing. Forget about i-

Miss Xtra: Come into the camera view and talk!

Mav Valentine: *off camera* No, I'm good. Just drinking my coffee.

Miss Xtra: Well then, that does it for us here in the Xtra Zone! We'll see you at The Playoffs! Wink wink! Nudge nudge! Eh? Eh?

EBW: XP "The Playoffs!"

Deep Darkness

In a seedy bar in a jungle village, a weary and bloody Tack Angel kicked open the door with the last of his energy. He breathed in deeply before walking into the bar and sitting down. A bartender, who looked suspiciously like Jackie, complete with an eye patch, gave him a glass of water.

Totally not Jackie: Here, you look like you could use this before you order something stronger.

Tack Angel: Is it clean water?

Totally not Jackie: ...It's clean enough.

Tack Angel: Whatever. It could give me a virus for all I care. I deserve it. I failed. I failed Makoto. I failed myself. I let w00t get the best of me, and maybe I deserve that too. I was such a bastard. I wish I could have stopped it. The memories hurt my soul. Know what I'm talking about?

Totally not Jackie: Not in the slightest.

?: I know what you're going through friend. Maybe I could help.

Tack Angel: Huh? I...I know you don't I?

?: May I sit beside you?

Tack Angel: Of course. You're...uh Chris...something. Chris P. Bacon?

Chris P. Bacon: That's right. See, your memory isn't THAT bad?

Tack Angel: It's pretty bad. A whole couple of years feel like a blur, but I still take responsibility for what happened.

Chris P. Bacon: You were possessed by a dark force were you not?

Tack Angel: Couldn't have happened unless I let it somehow. I keep thinking that. It started when all those girls were fighting over me. It made me feel...good about myself. As much as I wanted to be loyal and faithful to Amy, I began to wonder, what would be so bad about having them all? I could love more than one woman. I thought I could. I knew I could. Why couldn't I?

Chris P. Bacon: You think that's the moment you let him in?

Tack Angel: Could it have been?

Chris P. Bacon: It all depends. Do you think you were wrong to feel that way?
 
Tack Angel: ...I don't know. You said you could help me. How?

Chris P. Bacon: Well, I wanted to tell you about a place, a special place atop a mountain, that is said to house the secret to fighting your demons. You can rid yourself of the darkness once and for all. I think...you'll find your answers there.

Tack Angel: Great...a mountain. I just went through a jungle and an ice river, and a volcano, so why not a mountain? I'd do anything for her Chris. Anything I have to do.

Chris P. Bacon: You will have to have the answer to my question when you get there. Do you think you were wrong to feel that way? Will you think you were meant to live a modest life with just one wife, or did you truly have a heart big enough for your harem? You will have to journey to Chosenland, and climb atop Mt. Ordeals. There...you'll find what you seek.

Tack Angel: .....

Chosenland Golden Pool

Yannay Spitzer: Welcome one and all to the biggest race of the year, Freedom vs Kingdom: Keijo comes to Chosenland! My name is Yannay Spitzer, and I'll be your host. We here at Chosenland hope everyone on ENN+ will enjoy Keijo for the first time in this special event! It's going to be quite the profitable day!

The feed then shows wide shots of the crowd in an obnoxious zooming way. The Chosenland Elves are running about in the stands making side-bets and selling food and merchandise. In an accidental shot that was quickly panned away from, you could see a group of Dark Chocolate Elves in bondage being footrests or stressballs for some Chosen.

Yannay Spitzer: Uh... anyway! We have the big Keijo Battle Royal happening tonight! "Borrowed" from the old Crystal Heaven Kingdom, we are bringing this sport for the first time on legal TV and streaming. And with this special occasion, we are offering to you a special deal. Go to DraftKings.com and use promo code: "keijogoyim" and you'll get a free $20 bet that you can use tonight to be on this profitable matchup. Speaking of, the matchup tonight will decide the freedom of the Dark Chocolate Elves or the acquisition of an entire moon.

A highlight reel of stolen footage from the Crystal Heaven Keijo broadcasts showed previous races with sexual shots focusing on the ladies' curves.

Yannay Spitzer: Representing Team Dark Chocolate Elves will be Edo's C-Cup wannabe idol, Minako Aino! With a pretty face and long blonde hair, she'll be sure to charm the betters. Also on the team is Cylva, the B-Cup owner of one of our local hotels. How she agreed to this, we don't know and frankly don't care, all we care about is that this will bring in good business to that hotel and thus to us. Also on the team is the Crystal King's D-Cup former maid Korra, a retired Avatar. She's being restricted from using her bending powers but she stick has the thick muscle that is sure to help in combat and in attracting the muscle-fetishists money. And leading the team will be the A-Cup Moon Princess herself, Usagi Tsukino. Having not too recently gotten a divorce from this planet's so-called Prince-turned-deviant. We're happy to see the Princess do something as depraved as Keijo, it'll bring in big bucks from our secret upskirt cameras for a future photoset we'll be selling next week!

The team for the Dark Chocolate Elves made their way to poolside. Minako was excitedly waving to the crowd and doing poses, meanwhile Korra, Cylva, & Usagi had serious looks on their faces.

Usagi Tsukino: Did they really have to mention Mamoru and our bra sizes?

Korra: Don't worry about it your highness. They're just trying to intimidate us.

Cylva: More like trying to appeal to the people around the planet watching. Remember, this is all about profits for them.

The girls nodded but were distracted by Minako taking all the attention in.

Minako Aino: Hiiii~! It's me! The Number 1 Idol in the World, Minako Aino! I love you all!

Minako gets up close to a camera.

Minako Aino: Especially you my big red ringo!

Minako kissed the camera and then walked over to her team.

Korra: Big red ringo?

Minako Aino: Just a special message for home.

Yannay Spitzer: And representing Chosenland is a surprising team! All the way from the Ninteldo Empire, it's the hungry and starving E-Cup Carvai! She's lucky that all the food she eats goes into all the right places to make profit. Also on the team are former wrestlers the B-Cup Ines & Ennea! We haven't seen them in a long time in EBW and we're happy to bring in more of their old fans! Be sure to use the hashtag #InesEnneaBareAll! And leading the team will be Chosenland's very own and beloved B-Cup Warden Peach! You've seen her in our propega-... I mean tourist videos and now you can see her in her most revealing of forms!

The Chosenland Team made their way out to poolside, Peach was very annoyed by the proceedings.

Warden Peach: I called in some pretty big favors to get you three. You better not mess this up.

Carvai: As long as I get my buffet, everything will be Poyo~.

Ines: I don't think you have much favor left in the World Warden.

Ennea: Keep in mind, as soon as this match ends for us, our contract ends.

Peach was taken aback by the statement and starred at Ines & Ennea as they turned their backs against her.

Warden Peach (under her breath): I'm screwed either way...

Yannay Spitzer: The race is about to begin! May the athletes take the stage! Remember, this is a 4 on 4 battle royal. You can attack anyone at any time as long as you abide by the rules of Keijo; Only boobs, butts, or crotches are allowed to be used. If you kick with your feet, or punch with your hand, or grapple with your arms, it's an automatic DQ and elimination.

The teams took their places on the large buoyant platform. Cylva & Usagi kept eye contact with Peach, Ines & Ennea kept close and chatted strategy, Minako took in more adoration from the crowd as Carvai eyed up Minako like a piece of meat.

Yannay Spitzer: And begin!

The bell run and Carvai ran straight at Minako, Minako was still distracted but was saved by Korra who parried Carvai back with a hip attack.

Korra: Pay attention please!

Minako Aino: Oh, right! Sorry!

Korra was about to charge at Carvai when Ines blocked her path. Stopping, the 4 had a bit of a staredown. Meanwhile Ennea & Peach were fending off attack from Usagi & Cylva. Usagi, who doesn't have much of a bust, focused her attack on using her petite butt. Ennea clashed with Usagi during this as Cylva & Peach went nipple to nipple.

Warden Peach: Don't you understand?! The Dark Chocolate Elves are to be under my heel in subjugation! Why do you help them?

Cylva: I don't have to answer to you.

Peach tried to parry Cylva's nipple attacks by trying to use her Peach Bomber but her inexperience using it on an unstable platform allowed Cylva to dodge out of the way. Peach landed in front of Minako, who took the opportunity to go on the attack, Cylva noticed and ran in to fend off Carvai.

Minako Aino: One on one with the former Princess of Edo, what a boon for my future idolship.

Warden Peach: Get off me you attention starved weirdo!

Minako kept on her attack with her C-Cup ground and pound on the downed Peach's face. Usagi used her hips and was able to push back Ennea.

Usagi Tsukino: Didn't you used to work for Duvalie? How could you leave Crystal Heaven like you did?

Ennea: It's none of your concern what me or Ines do. Besides, we haven't even heard what Duvallie's been up to. She's probably killed herself from the shame she brought to Eisenritter and the Black Workshop.

Usagi Tsukino: You don't understand, she lives!

Ennea: What?

Usagi Tsukino: She lives on in Makoto.

Ennea: Y-you're lying!

Ennea backed off from Usagi and moved to where Ines & Minako were fighting. The two quickly teamed up on Minako with pairing shots from their breasts and butts that got Minako off balance, allowing Carvai to break free from Korra to slam into Minako with her superior bust to knock her into the drink.

Yannay Spiter: Minako Aino has been eliminated! Tough luck for the wannabe idol, but be sure to buy her brand new photoshoot on the ENN+ website. Subscribers get 10% off and free shipping on any order over $100!

Minako swam back to poolside as Ines & Ennea whispered to each other.

Warden Peach: What are you doing? Keep going!

Ines: Our contract...

Ennea: Has been fulfilled. We participated, and now we're leaving.

Warden Peach: What?!

Ines and Ennea jointly jumped off the platform into the water and just as quickly left poolside and the arena.

Yannay Spitzer: Ines & Ennea have been eliminated in surprising fashion! Be sure to pick up their contractually obligated Swimsuit shoot calendar! Who doesn't love two girls all wet and on top of each other, it brings in great profits!

The match was now 3v2, Peach stood behind the larger Carvai as Usagi, Cylva, & Korra got closer. Cylva and Korra went on the attack as Peach pushed Carvai in their way to block. Peach tried to scurry away to the empty side but was caught up with by Usagi. Korra & Cylva worked like a well oiled machine as Cylva put her all in her breast sawys and crotch attacks while Korra used her massive muscular hips to bump right into Carvai's bouncy breasts. Eventually it was too much for Carvai as Cylva & Korra used a tandem Quad-Cheek attack on Carvai which sent her overboard.

Yannay Spitzer: And so ends Carvai! However, she'll be back on ENN soon as we reached an agreement for the ENN Youtube channel for a Carvai Mukbang series, you sick goyim will get to watch and listen to her eat massive amounts of food. But sure to use superchats and donations to show your appreciation!

Peach was now all alone, as the three of the Dark Chocolate Elves team closed in on her. Peach was cornered and tried to stave off the incoming Trio.

Warden Peach: Please! Don't! You don't understand! I have nothing now, I'm a slave to the Chosen too!

Korra: You didn't have to join them, you chose to.

Warden Peach: I had no choice! What did you expect me to do? Rot in jail?

Usagi Tsukino: It's what you deserve for trying to kill Toadette!

Warden Peach: I'm a princess, just like you. You should know we're not fit to be amongst the commoners. Right Cylva? You're a Chosen, you understand?

Cyvla: I am not a Chosen, nor will I ever be a chosen. I'm an albino Dark Chocolate Elf.

Warden Peach: Oh God, you got to be kidding me!

Usagi Tsukino: It's over Peach, just give up and pay for your crimes!

Warden Peach: Mario! Mario please save me!

Korra: He's not here, you know that.

Warden Peach: You left yourself open!

Peach then jumped under Korra and in imitating that she was trying to use her breasts under Korra, hid that she punched Korra in the gut and tossed her aside into the water.

Yannay Spitzer: Oh! And Korra is eliminated! Looks like Peach's peaches caught Korra in the bread basket. Speaking of bread, why don't you get us some bread by buying the brand new artist illustrations of "Female Avatars Rise Up the Balance" pin-up collection done by our resident artist, Gevalt. On sale now!

Usagi Tsukino: You cheated!

Warden Peach: I'm fighting for my life here.

Peach quickly turned for a Peach Bomber and knocked Usagi away, allowing her to get one on one with Cylva. The two had a clash of breasts as both tried to take advantage. Peach though got underneath again and in motion for a breast attack instead headbutted Cylva right in the jaw. It was enough impact for Cylva to accidentally bite her tongue causing it to bleed. Peach took the advantage and hip attacked Cylva and knocking her off the platform.

Yannay Spitzer: And there goes Cylva! Chosenland is on the comeback! And be sure when you caome visit to check out Cylva's Hotel. We won't upcharge you too much!

Usagi got up and saw Cylva was eliminated. Angered she ran at Peach and attacked with her butt.

Usagiu Tsukino: How dare you cheat like that, why can't you play fair?

Warden Peach: If I don't girly, you don't know what they'll do to me.

Usagi Tsukino: I've seen what they do, at the Dark Chocolate Elf interment camp.

Warden Peach: You fool, that's a tourist trap. You have no idea what they actually do. These people are horrible, so horrible I don't even want to call them people. They're evil incarnate.

Usagi Tsukino: So why do you work for them?!

Warden Peach: I HAD NO CHOICE! Your buddy the Crystal King made sure of that.

Usagi Tsukino: You murdered Mileena & Skarlet! You almost killed Toadette!

Warden Peach: You have no idea what would have happened if it got out I was responsible for the Mushroom Head pandemic!

Usagi Tsukino: What happened?

The two stopped attacking as Peach answered.

Warden Peach: We were experimenting on creating a new mushroom that would l;et us mind control it's consumers. We wanted to expand the territory of Edo into Dalaam.

Usagi Tsukino: But why?

Warden Peach: Edo grew bored of the lack of warring territories like we had years ago. The citizens were aching to fight and who better than out closest neighbor. We'd use the mushrooms in trade and then as they were left vulnerable we'd attack.

Usagi Tsukino: But what happened?

Warden Peach: The formula went bad, and some idiot scientist brought his hat to work and it got inside his hat. Eventually it spread. The formula was supposed to control thoughts, instead all 8it did was just make people turn the wrong way occasionally.

Usagi Tsukino: You're extremely lucky it was benign.

Warden Peach: But if word got out the Mushroom Kingdom was trying to start a war, it'd be over for Edo as we know it. It'd fall just like your King's kingdom did.

Usagi Tsukino: it didn't fall, it and all of the Crystal Heaven Kingdoms helped save the World. Something Chosenland could have been apart of.

Warden Peach: And Lilith killed herself because she failed her mission. The dumb bitch. A bitch for a bitch I say, your Crystal King should have done the same.

Usagi Tasukino: You shut up about Tack, he's a good guy. A nice guy.

Warden Peach (mocking): A nIcE gUy, boo hoo hoo. Nice guys finish last, don't you know that? Or in his case with his wives I'm sure he finishes first.

Usagi Tsukino: That's not funny!

Warden Peach: If you care about him so much, why don't you marry him too? Or are you upset that Makoto got there first?

Usagi Tsukino: You shut up about Mako-Chan!

Warden Peach: If I remember Toadette's reports, you had a chance to marry Tack.

Usagi Tsukino: It's not like that between me and him, we're... we're friends!

Warden Peach: Are you sure about that? Are you sure he feels the same way?

Usagi looked away in thought as Peach smiled.

Warden Peach: So gullible.

Peach ran at Usagi and started attacking her with her hips. Usagi was caught off guard and was hit a few times before trying to dodge.

Warden Peach: Just go home girly, there's nothing on the moon anyway. You'd give up nothing!

Usagi Tsukino: My Kingdom is there, it will be rebuilt!

Warden Peach: Delusions of grandure, just like the Crystal King!

Peach tried to finish off Usagi with a Peach Bomber but Usagi gracefully bent backwards and caught Peach with her A-Cup breasts.

Warden Peach: What?!

Usagi Tsukino: You know, you sure like to talk about Tack yourself, almost like you were jealous of Toadette! Here, let me give you a taste of what Tack would have done for you!

Usagi tossed off Peach and ran at her chest first, Peach had the size advantage but Usagi sneakily reached down and grabbed Peach by her crotch with her hand and gave a firm grip to Peach's clitoris. Peach screamed in reaction and the pain was enough to distract Peach from Usagi using Samus' Screw Attack, knocking Peach into the water.

Yannay Spitzer: And that's it! Usagi wins it for her Team! The Dark Choclate Elves are free! What an amazing moment! And you can get a piece of this historic moment by going to ENN+'s website to purchase the secretly obtained bathwater of Warden Peach called Peach's Pit & Usagi Tsukino's called Scent of the Moon, supplies are limited so be sure to act fast!

Cylva: You did it Usagi! You saved my people!

Korra: Good work Princess, I know Tack and Seiya would be proud.

Seiya jumped from the stands to poolside and hugged Usagi.

Minako Aino: op! Seaking of.

Seiya Kou: I'm so proud of you Bun Head.

Usagi Tsukino: I couldn't have done it without your support, without all of you.

Minako Aino: Usagi-Chan!

Usagi Tasukino: Minako-Chan!

Minako joined in on the hug as all cried in relief of the results. Korra joined in and motioned for Cylva to do the same. Confetti flew from the sky as music played to end the event, although the confetti was actually losing betting tickets. Carvai was still poolside having an after race meal while Peach tried to sneak away.

Warden Peach: I gotta get out of here.

Peach was about to enter the ,lockeroom but was stopped by guards.

Guard: Warden Peach? The Grand Nagus would like to see you.

Warden Peach: Shit...

Deep Underground

Inside a testing facility, the teenage boy Grimoire was sitting in a chair, having just gotten a blood sample taken. Sitting across from him was Gordon Cole.

Gordon Cole: So you're telling me that "The Art" is the ability to create Worlds?

Grimoire: In a manner of speaking, yes.

Gordon Cole: But they are real?

Grimoire: Are we real? Do you think the World you're living on isn't just a simulation?

Gordon Cole: I know I'm real.

Grimoire: Are you? Because in talking with my mentor...

Gordon Cole: Atrus? You said his name was?

Grimoire: Atrus, that's right. He came from a place called New Mexico.

Gordon Cole: What the hell is New Mexico?

Grimoire: A deserty place, near a border with the actual country of Mexico.

Gordon Cole: So New Mexico is a country?

Grimoire: It's a state, part of something called... What was it? Ah yes, the United States of America.

Gordon Cole: Sounds a lot like our United States of Eagleland.

Grimoire: Eagleland? That's where I am?

Gordon Cole: That's right son, the FBI I work for is a branch of the Eagleland Government. In this underground facilitay we test unusual oddities that don;'t fit in our line of reason and logic. We call each object or thing as MOTHER objects, or MTR for short.

A scientist ran up to Gordon and handed him some papers and then scurried off in a panic. Gordon adjust the paper for his eyesight and read it.

Gordon Cole: In fact, congratulations! You now have a registration number. You are now MTR-10242022. You're a brand new category. Trhat normally doesn't happen.

Grimoire: What are you saying?

Gordon Cole: Well normally we assign numbers to objects or things that come out of other MTRs as the same number but with a dash number. For example, with your Myst Book MTR-09241993 has had some people assigned MTR-09241993-1 or MTR-09241993-2, and so on.

Grimoire: Wait... You've met other people that have come out of the Myst Book?

Gordon Cole: Yes, there was for instance a guy who we assigned MTR-09241993-3 was a guy named Sirus.

Grimoire stood up in a panic. The scientists around him freaked out.

Scientist: MTR-10242022 is revolting!

Grimoire: You met Sirus?! He's alive?

Gordon Cole: Calm down, calm down. Have a seat.

Grimoire calmed down and sat back in the testing chair.

Gordon Cole: Tell me Grimoire, do you eat?

Grimoire: What do you mean?

Gordon Cole: Eat? You know, food?

Grimoire: ...I, the Ages you have to understand...

Gordon Cole: By Ages you mean, the written Worlds.

Grimoire: In some of those Ages, it took away the need or desire to eat. I haven't eaten in years.

Gordon Cole: Years you say?

Grimoire: I will say, being in this Age, this World, the hunger has started to set in.

Gordon Cole: We need a change of scenery. Fellas, unhook MTR-10242022. We're going to get some hot cherry pie.

Deep Underground - Cafe

Time passed as Gordon & Grimoire talked and ate. Grimoire talked about Atrus, his family's struggles, the Ages and The Art. About 4 slices of pie in, Grimoire took a drink of the provided coffee.

Gordon Cole: My socks are on fire! This is some great pie.

Grimoire: And some damn fine coffee.

Gordon Cole: You know Grimoire, you can take off the mask.

Grimoire: I want to keep it on, I still don't really trust all that's going on.

Gordon Cole: I respect that, I respect that.

Grimoire: That said, my compliments to the baker and the barista.

A woman in the cafe turned to the two.

Woman: This pie is a miracle.

Gordon Cole: Amen! Another slice?

Grimoire: No thank you, I had my fill.

Gordon Cole: Grimoire, I'm gonna be frank with you. I like you, you're a great conversationalist and storyteller, but by the Eagleland Government, you are technically an alien invader. They are not going to want to let you leave.

Grimoire: I just want to go back to my island, to live in peace after dealing with Gehn.

Gordon Cole: I want that for you too, but the Eagleland Government and my President Bidet are going to want to know the full extent of The Art's powers. So we can understand the Myst Book.

Grimoire: You shouldn't have it in the first place, where'd you even find it?

Gordon Cole: In a fissure in the Dusty Dunes Desert near Anahauc, must be similar to your Atrus' New Mexico.

Grimoire: They must be connected somehow, Atrus meant to throw the book away initially but was captured in it by his sons.

Scientist: Sir! Agent Cole! We have the blood results back for MTR-10242022!

A scientist scurried over to Gordon and handed him the papers, he took a look at Grimoire and his leather bound mask and got scared off.

Gordon Cole: Good lord!

Grimoire: What?

Gordon Cole: Grimoire, I'm afraid to tell you this, but this is kind of important.

Grimoire: Out with it man.

Gordon Cole: We know who your parents are. And your parents are from here in Eagleland.

Grimoire: What? But my first memory was on Myst Island, I was already grown. I have no parents.

Gordon Cole: Yes you do according to this, and we might know exactly how. You are the son of the Crystal King Tack Angel and the late Queen Amy Angel. Well, she's technically still alive.

Grimoire: Who are you talking about?

Days later, back in the testing room Deep Underground

Gordon Cole: So you see, after the M-Class event regarding the Cloud of Darkness, we took stock of what we could. In debreifing we thought we accounted for all of Tack & Makoto's children that we saw go accross the globe, but you weren't there at the end. You must have fallen into that book after Cupid Eros shot that arrow into the sky and grew all the children up from the wombs.

Grimoire: I don't understand why I was sent there, to the book.

Gordon Cole: At this point, I don't think even Makoto knows.

Grimoire: I need time to think.

Gordon Cole: We're going to need to do testing soon on The Art.

Grimoire: If it gets me back to Myst, so be it.

Gordon Cole: Thank you Grimoire.

Gordon got up from his chair and extended his hand to Grimoire, Grimoire didn't respond or didn't noticed but Gordon couldn't tell which. He closed his hand and walked out of the room. After the door shut, Gordon walked over to the guards and scientists.

Gordon Cole: No one say a word about Makoto's condition to MTR-10242022, do you understand?

Guards & Scientists: Yes sir.
