Twoson Fairgrounds - Merch Stand

Makoto Angel: Makoto Angel here, and yes, I am getting slightly more pale over time, and it's not because I'm easing up on the spray on tan. It's just natural. It's natural! I'm here trying to get the new Sailor Senshi t-shirt that we've already started selling, but it looks like it's selling out fast! I'm next in line! I'll take the Senshi t-shirt please!

Merch Seller: Sorry lady, but we just ran out.

Makoto Angel: Hmmm?

Alison Chains: Oh look...I got the last one.

Makoto Angel: It's too big on you though.

Alison Chains: Are you mocking my tits? Calling them a tragedy?

Makoto Angel: What?! No!

Alison Chains: I think your face is melting.

Makoto Angel: It's normal! It's hot in here!

Alison Chains: I'm gonna wear this out there tonight for my match.

Makoto Angel: Well, I guess I appreciate the-

Alison Chains: Bye.

Makoto Angel: Oh and there she goes. *sigh*

Backstage

Little Mac was fixing his watch as he made his way to the Blood 4 Blood locker room. He suddenly bumped into w00t.

Little Mac: Excuse me.

w00t: No wait, I was looking for you.

Little Mac: Yeah?

w00t: I wanted to talk...about recruitment.

Little Mac: Is that right?

w00t: We worked together before, and it had its ups and downs didn't it?

Little Mac: You could say that.

w00t: But, I think in the end it was far more advantageous. You were rolling in cash at the time. We WERE Greed after all weren't we?

Little Mac: Heh, that "Greed" got me in over my head w00t. I don't feel like talking about the past with you. I'd rather see my boy Trevor Mach smash your face yet again.

w00t: Of course he's not going for the kill anymore is he? You want to explain that to me? Want to tell me the motive? What game is he playing?

Little Mac: Someone he looked up to passed away. You're catching him in a period of mourning, and I think you should be grateful. All he wants is a match from you, and not a blood bath.

w00t: WHY?! IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!

Little Mac: Competition isn't enough for you? Does it always have to be about hatred. Two of the very best the sport has ever seen are both attempting to let bygones be bygones, and you're lucky to have that opportunity. Tack put himself in the crosshairs of the Inquisition, and Trevor's already there, but they're trying to let it go. You should too. You should too.

w00t: ...If I did that, would the anger go away?

Little Mac: ...You could find out.

w00t: .....

EBW: IGNITION
Twoson Fairgrounds, Twoson
ENN+

0. IGNITION Singles: Jaden Yuki vs. Horace Angel
-Horace no longer had Cadmus in his corner. This did little to curb the fact that Horace is the shortest man on the roster, and it's not even close. Also, he doesn't actually know how to wrestle, seemingly losing the ability that he DID have by wasting time on TikTack instead. Jaden Yuki meanwhile continues to shine on the mic and in the ring. He beat the Zoomer with a GX Factor for the pin. He tried to get Jammer, Benjamin, Vape, and Dan to join him in a rap after the match, but Jammer is still not sure if he likes him at all, so they didn't do that.
Winner: Jaden Yuki via GX Factor -> Pin

0. IGNITION 6-Man Tag: Zyro Kurogane/Kinniku Mike/Isiah Muscle vs. Magnum PT/Point Man/Pucky
-Former World Champion Zyro Kurogane teamed with Mike and the ENN+ Champion Isiah Muscle to take on the Weekend Wrecking Crew. Fans loved the Crew, except for one guy in the crowd with swirly glasses and a fu manchu that looked a lot like Tack Angel in disguise. The hot headed Pucky fell into a Perfection trap, as Mike made quick tag that he didn't see and allowed Pucky to his a hockey check on him, so Kurogane could sneak in from behind for the Straight Jacket Hagen and the pin. "Someone" threw a pair of scissors in the ring after the match.
Winners: Zyro Kurogane[o]/Kinniku Mike/Isiah Muscle via Straight Jacket Hagen on Pucky -> Pin

0. IGNITION Tag Tournament Finals: Sal Paradise/Jason Boomtown vs. Subculture/Picky Minch
-"Main Event" of IGNITION saw LoveBoom and Blood 4 Blood face off in head to head competition. Little Mac was noticeably absent, and that threw Subbie and Picky off their game after seeing him speaking to w00t earlier in the evening. The resurrection of the People's Choice was in the full swing, as Sal Paradise rocked the competition. Adding in the best showing from Jason Boomtown yet, and LoveBoom secured a rematch, after Sal reversed a Hagen Suplex on Picky, and bridged it to win.
Winners: Sal Paradise[o]/Jason Boomtown via Hagen Suplex on Picky Minch -> Pin

Makoto was sitting with her head resting against he hand, as Alison Chains danced around with her new shirt, staring up at the ceiling.

Makoto Angel: ...Well I'm glad she's happy at least? Folks this E1 is gonna be short and sweet because of the roster depth, but that depth is expanding to ensure next year we have an opportunity to really push forward with possibly even more blocks! One EBW star that was unable to compete in this year's E1 is Jenny James, but she's here right now to address that.

Jenny James: I am? I thought I was here to get a shirt...or a foam Tack Angel fist. Say why is it a fi-

Makoto Angel: *cough cough* No reason! Listen, I'm curious how you feel about missing the E1.

Jenny James: Anything but livid would be madness! I was injured and they wouldn't clear me dammit! I'm fine now though. Isn't that convenient! GAH! You were talking about an expanding roster though, and that gives me an idea. That Final Girl is coming into EBW, and she's going to need an opponent right? Stupid question, this is wrestling. I'll be that first opponent. I may not be in the E1, but I want to be the one to personally welcome Final Girl to the roster.

Makoto Angel: Ooo! That's a fun match to look forward to, and- is Alison Chains buying another Senshi shirt?

Jenny James: Huh? Looks like it.

Makoto Angel: I thought they were out. I thought you were out!

Merch Seller: I found another one.

Makoto Angel: Awww! Alison, can I have that shirt? I'll pay you double what you just paid!

Alison Chains: I would but....

Makoto Angel: She's just wandering off. It's like she forgot what she was talking about halfway through.

Twoson Fairgrounds - Parking Lot

Tack Angel, CP Munk, and Penguin were seen walking into the building.

CP Munk: Come on, you know Christina would get a kick out of it!

Tack Angel: I can't do it. I just can't do it! Journey was a bad idea, by bad creative!

CP Munk: Dude, that was Rishin Fliger's idea.

Tack Angel: Oh shoot...you're right. Dang, I hope he didn't hear that, but I assume he hears everything. His daughter made some wacky tea.

CP Munk: Starting to remember more?

Tack Angel: It comes and goes...like I have a bad memory or something, huh PC Mink?

CP Munk: ...That had to be on purpose.

Tack Angel: What was on purpose?

CP Munk: Nothing. Just remember you are 100% behind the Journey idea.

Tack Angel: I'll never forget how much THAT'S not true.

CP Munk: Dang it!

Just outside of the building, Tack and Munk were hounded by fans. Tack was mindlessly signing autographs on the way into the building, and telling everyone how much he loved Twoson. One set of hands that reached out from the crowd, appeared lithe and feminine, with long nails. She reached out, and made sure Tack ended up signing on a dotted line without realizing.

Tack Angel: Like I said before Munk, I just need to focus on the task at hand. I really need to focus on what is in front of me at all times. I can't let anything slip by me. The Stygian Inquisition want a piece of the Prince, and we need to take them as seriously as a heart attack. We're not dealing with some random cult. No more Mani Mani Statue to blame, and Darkness Angel is no more. They are pure evil, and the last thing I need is distractions that'll keep me from-



Geoff Garrett: Alright Slap Asses, listen up. President Swift has announced that I'm the new Executive of Operations in EBW, and ol' G-E-O-Double F, has a certain way of running things. That's why we need some Black Shirt Security!

Horace Angel: Yes! This is awesome! Ever since Cadmus left and took the DVNO B-Team gimmick about 10 minutes ago, I didn't know what to do. This is straight up bussin' yo!

CP Munk: Cadmus just left? He took the B-Team gimmick with him? Just like that it's over? Unceremoniously and such? Also look Tack, THAT is your nephew.

Tack Angel: I-I-I-I-I-

CP Munk: You OK? Hey isn't the Eiji Hino? I thought you left man!

Eiji Hino: Huh? Oh I did, but now I'm back, because I ran out of underpants.

CP Munk: But didn't you like....mysteriously vanish?

Eiji Hino: Yeah!

CP Munk: ...Right.

Tack Angel: I-I-I-I-I-I-

CP Munk: Tack, your eyes are bleeding! Why would they-

Geoff Garrett: And since we all know that the Black Shirts have the weakest power level slappy, we have the elite Red Shirt Security! I couldn't think of a better team...than the originals Biggs and Wedge, but they weren't available, so I got the TackForce aka The Eagleland Males aka my NEW Red Shirt Security, and a vital cog in the machine that will be Planet Garrett.

Saxon: It's great to be back! Yes! Hey Tack! Look, it's Tack!

Wedge: Taaaack! Look! We're back Tack! Look! Tack! We're back! We're RED SHIRT SECURITY!

Tack Angel: .....

CP Munk: Tack? Boy, I wonder if this could get worse?

Magnum PT: Hey guys, what's going on in her-

Tack Angel: AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!


"Yngwie Malmsteen - My Resurrection"



Larry Grim: Welcome to Twoson, for EBW wrestling action, cause it's whatever day this is, and you know what that means. It's time for Xcite! Larry Grim here hoping you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving and Black Friday. I bought a new robe...cause what else am I going to get?

Apple Kid: I got a new computer with a Surpryzen 12 chip inside!

Larry Grim: What does that do?

Apple Kid: Well I HAD a computer with a Surpryzen 11 chip, and this one is a 12, so that's one better.

Larry Grim: .....

Apple Kid: Look Orange or "Tangelo" was always more of the technical jargon guy. I just made stuff!

Larry Grim: I know. You made an eraser that gets rid of pencil statues. That's impressive.

Apple Kid: Is it though? Is it really? I mean Ness seemed to appreciate it, but I can't rest on those laurels forever.

Larry Grim: That happened right here in Twoson didn't it?

Apple Kid: Yeah, I'm the hometown boy that gets no place pop from the place poppers. I mean I still live here. I have a big sign outside of my house! It could be that I live in trash heap. By the way, Minako wants to come over! Think I should clean up?

Larry Grim: Do you WANT to get that kiss?

Apple Kid: ...Yeah I'd better clean up.

Makoto Angel: Hey guys! I'm here!

Larry Grim: And we killed enough time!

Makoto Angel: I enjoy the job, but the commute is killing me!

Apple Kid: I will invent a scooter that will get you around faster.

Makoto Angel: Oh thank yo-

Apple Kid: AND it will eliminate Pencil AND Eraser Statues!

Makoto Angel: ...I mean I don't REALLY need those features, but thank you!

Larry Grim: I mean Segways already exist.

Apple Kid: Yeah, but it lacks that Apple touch!

Makoto Angel: Anyways, the E1 is still rolling on, and the road to Hunter's Moon is winding down! In less than a week we'll have a Women's E1 Climax winner, and we'll have the first ever Senshi Champions! I'm still curious who our opponents are going to be. I'm told that the new Executive of Operation Geoff Garrett assembled an outside team of great interest, so that should be...um....interesting!

Larry Grim: Tonight will be interesting as well. We have some incredible matches lined up for the Climax, and Tack Angel will team with CP Munk for the first time in...well not THAT long, but it'll be the first time since Tack stopped acting like a dink. No offense Makoto.

Makoto Angel: No you're right...he was a dink...but he's my dink. Let's get right into the action though, as Hope Mach, our World Champion, is feeling Magical. She's "Magical Hope" tonight, and I "hope" the loss to Alison Chains didn't break her brain! Haha!

Apple Kid: Erica is already in the ring.

Larry Grim: Whoa! When did she get there? She's just shambling around too. Not even stealthy.

Apple Kid: We lack sensory awareness.

EBW: Xcite
Twoson Fairgrounds, Twoson
ENN

1. Women's E1 Climax Block A vs. Block B: Hope Mach[2] vs. Erica[0]
-Hope Mach in as "Magical Hope", swinging around the World Championship as he entered the ring, doing her warm ups around Erica, who just sat on her knees in the middle of the ring. Hope was ready to go, but Erica seemingly refused to put up a fight. The pale and blank Erica just stared off while Hope tried to provoke her to fight, even putting the magical white hat on her, to no avail. Hope finally threw her hands up, shrugged and kicked over Erica, placing her in the signature LeBell Lock, until the former World Champion weakly tapped out.
Winner: Hope Mach via Lebell Lock -> Submission -> Hope Mach[4]

Hope Mach: Come on Erica! What the hell!? I'm the World Champion, and I want real competition. These people want to see real competition! I had all these clever tricks, and you didn't even let me bust them out! What happened to you?! I thought you thought you were the best! What's going on here?!

Erica: ...Erica is dead.

Hope Mach: ...*shrugs*

Hope kicked Erica back to the mat and pretended to bury her with an invisible shovel, leaving the former World Champion laying on the mat, until she eventually crawled away, leaving everyone very confused.

2. Women's E1 Climax Block B vs. Block A: Alison Chains[2] vs. Gianna Rambaldi[2]
-Alison Chains shocked the world last week, when she slipped a victory by on the World Champion, which seemed to ignite a wild streak in Hope Mach. The Television Champion used her unpredictable mindset and possible mushroom addiction to her advantage, but these things...well they have an eb and flow to them. It was a back and forth competition, until Alison started trying to attack bats that weren't there, claiming they were in her hair. Gianna was confused, but didn't let it linger, as she nailed the Violet Excellence for the pin and the two points.
Winner: Gianna Rambaldi via Violet Excellence -> Pin -> Gianna Rambaldi[4]

Makoto Angel: The Television Champion just lost to Gianna Rambaldi. EBW's newcomer from Euroland is really making an impression, and she doesn't like Chili Dogs. I found that out last week.

Apple Kid: Gianna could shock us all and win the whole thing, but this should at least get her a Television Championship shot if she doesn't win.

Larry Grim: Earlier in the night on IGNITION, we saw Little Mac having a discussion with w00t. We haven't seen him since, but I'm told Mav, Subculture, and Picky just found him. Let's check it out.

Backstage

Mav Valentine, Subculture, and Picky Minch finally found Little Mac, having a walk by himself.

Mav Valentine: There you are! We've been worried sick about you!

Little Mac: What?

Mav Valentine: I mean...uh...we had no clue where you'd gone.

Subculture: We saw you talking to w00t, and then you didn't come out of the match on IGNITION.

Little Mac: Do you expect me to hold your hand Matthew?

Subculture: You know that's not the point.

Little Mac: You're right, I should have been out there. You thought w00t jumped me. I can understand why you'd think that given the discussion, and the man he has been. He didn't. He approached me angrily at first, but then he came back, and talked to me, as if he were a man confused. Confused by generosity and kindness as it turns out. I found myself in a similar position with you lot. You all took a broken down bum and gave him another chance. I know trust is hard to come by in wrestling, but believe me, you have nothing to worry about. Matthew, I'm only here because you went under the knife, and I know all of you, including Trevor tried to do the same. I'm a bastard, but I'm not that kind of bastard. So no, I'm not thinking about aligning with w00t either, in case that's what you're thinking.

Picky Minch: I'm sorry to say, but we were thinking that. It IS wrestling after all.

Little Mac: True, but if I were to turn on you to make sure he won the title, then that would mean the end of Blood 4 Blood, and that would be really really stupid. That being said, you all don't need me. You're all fine athletes, and even though you suffered a loss tonight boys, it doesn't mean you can't hit the gym, work hard, fight meaner, and win the big one next time. We don't give up. If we did, well I probably wouldn't be alive right now, now would I? I've been out here wondering if I have the right to place mistrust on him, after the what I've gotten up to. Is he playing a game, or is he being serious?

Backstage...elsewhere

Tack and Munk were warming up before their match.

CP Munk: It's not to late to but on the shirt and-

Tack Angel: I'm not gonna!

CP Munk: Awww man!

Tack Angel: Why can't we dress up like a cool band like BTS.

CP Munk: BTS?

Tack Angel: ...Did I reveal my power level?

CP Munk: You listen to BTS?

Tack Angel: ...Uh...Trevor likes ABBA!

CP Munk: That's well documented and celebrated.

Tack Angel: Drats! I-

Makoto Angel: Tack? Tack, can I talk to you for a second?

Tack Angel: Makoto, my lovely, cherished, and ONE SINGLE WIFE! What's up?

Makoto Angel: The ceiling, but that's not important right now. Listen, you're not the same guy you were a year ago right?

Tack Angel: That wasn't like me at all Makoto. I'm not like that at all anymore.

Makoto Angel: But you're "adding to the collection"?

Tack Angel: What? What are you talking about?

Makoto Angel: *whisper* I was approached by a woman who said you signed her marriage certificate.

Tack Angel: ...WHA- *whisper* what?!

Makoto Angel: *whisper* Yeah, she showed me the paper, and it IS your signature.

Tack Angel: *whisper* I have no idea how that could happened. I swear I didn't sign anything knowingly. Do I look like the kind of guy that would just marry all willy nilly don't answer that.

Makoto Angel: *whisper* I'm sorry Tack. I didn't mean to distract you from your match. I know how important it is, and you need to be careful. That being said we have an issue now with this woman.

Tack Angel: *whisper* I have way too much going on right now. At least Munk is in the game for this match. Last thing I need is yet another distraction.

Makoto Angel: *whisper* He's putting on the Munk Perry wig.

Tack Angel: WHAT?!




3. Tag: Tack Angel/CP Munk vs. The Assessor/The Witness
-Tack was super nettled by the entrance, and tore the Munk Perry wig off of CP Munk, before they were both blindsided by The Stygian Inquisition. The Inquisition roughed up the Journey reunion team, but even then Tack made it to the announce table to insist they were NOT a Journey reunion team. Things got serious when The Preacher and The Auditor were seen heading towards ringside. Tack regained control of the situation, laying in vicious kicks to The Assessor, as Munk took The Witness out of the equation with a Wheel in the Sky, which is a Go 2 Munk, but it's a Journey song title. The Auditor suddenly pull out his fountain pen, which has a razor sharp tip, and sliced the back of Tack's ankle, making him stumble and falter into a Black Hole Slam by The Assessor. He took the Star Prince to the mat, where he tore into his face with the Ripping Crossface. Tack refused to tap, and the ref called for the bell, ending the match in a stoppage.
Winners: The Assessor[o]/The Witness via Ripping Crossface -> Referee Stoppage

Makoto ran up to check on Tack, but The Assessor pushed her away and put Tack BACK into the Crossface. The Auditor and The Witness sliced him and Munk up, as The Preacher rolled his eyes back in demented pleasure. They were about to collect blood in a chalice for The Preacher, but that suddenly brought down Trevor Mach. The World Champion went to make a save for his friend, and to keep The Assessor away from Makoto, but he was blindsided as well. Trevor, Tack, and Munk were being worked over in the ring, until of all people w00t ran down to the ring with a chair in hand. A stunned crowd watched as he chased off The Stygian Inquisition, and demanded they get out of the ring. Trevor and Tack were more on guard than ever as w00t turned to them and dropped the chair, lifting his hands into the air as he rolled out of the ring. Obviously...everyone had questions.

Backstage

Mitra Lennox was making her way to the ring, when her tag team partner and opponent Darkness Aoi blocked her path.

Mitra Lennox: I know what this is about. You're not happy that I've lost twice. You think I'm happy about it? Why do you think I joined up with you and Hilda? I joined up with you to push my limits, and be the very best I can be, no matter what anyone thinks about it. By hook or by crook, it's about survival, and I haven't done what I need to do to survi-

Darkness Aoi slapped her hard across the face.

Darkness Aoi: You're damn right you haven't. If you don't go into this match like your life depends on it, then I will end your career. It's as simple as that.

Mitra Lennox: ...

4. Women's E1 Climax Block A vs. Block B: Darkness Aoi[4] vs. Mitra Lennox[0]
-A huge test for the World Tag Team Champions, as Aoi took Mitra to task for her losses in the E1 so far. She battered her pillar to post before Mitra was about to fight her off and land shots of her own. Aoi wasn't going easy on Mitra because they were partners, and used every trick she'd use against anyone else. Mitra, fired up and angry, took Aoi to the mat surprisingly. She got right back up into Mitra's face and slapped her hard several times, leading to Lennox kicking her in the midsection for a Powerbomb. She showed off her impressive back and shoulder muscles to lift her up again, but the bleeding Aoi was punching Mitra as she lifted her. BAM! Another big Powerbomb. Aoi was still fighting, so Lennox lifted her yet again, and lifted her high, as blood streamed down her forehead. BAM! A third and final Powerbomb lead to the pin and the big win for Mitra Lennox.
Winner: Mitra Lennox via 3x Powerbomb -> Pin -> Mitra Lennox[2]

Apple Kid: Wow! Mitra with the win. That was a tough win, and a well earned one. Look, you might not like or agree with Aoi, but she did just bring out the best in Mitra.

Larry Grim: Aoi is nodding her head. She's not happy with losing, but she's happy that Mitra stepped up to beat her, and the way she did it. Those back and shoulder muscles on Mitra!

Apple Kid: Strong back muscles are fetish of mine. Did I just say that out loud?!

Larry Girm: It's fine. That's fine. Don't worry about it. Makoto, are you OK?

Makoto Angel: I'm just worried about Tack, and confused about w00t.

Larry Grim: Well, we're told that Tack is OK. The cut wasn't deep in the ankle. It was just enough to catch him off guard. That pen had to be sharp it pierce the boot so easily. That being said the boot probably kept him safe. Tack will get his chance at revenge against the Inquisition, when he takes on The Auditor at Hunter's Moon. As for w00t, who knows what he's up to. Apparently though, he wants to open XP this week, in a tag match with the World Champion?! What?!

Apple Kid: Why would he want that?

Larry Grim: Apparently Mach wants a piece of The Assessor again for coming after Makoto, but it's a tag match, and w00t beat Blood 4 Blood to the punch on stepping up as a partner?! Is Trevor actually going to accept? He can't possibly trust w00t. They have a match against each other at Hunter's Moon?!

Makoto Angel: Well, we need to push on though, because speaking of The Inquisition, the Nameless is in action in our main event against Christina, and after what we've seen already tonight, I'm hoping that Christina is ready for anything.

5. Women's E1 Climax Block B vs. Block A: Christina Angel[4] vs. The Nameless[4]
-Main event time, as this one was going to be a challenge. The beloved Christina Angel taking on The Nameless in a battle of the undefeated, and...well it's basically an Angel vs. a Devil so yeah. Also, so people were actually cheering The Nameless, like they were cheering The Assessor and The Witness earlier in the show. What is with some fans assuming the literal Satanists are faces? The Nameless tried to attack Christina from behind during her entrance, but Christina heard it coming and landed a sick spin kick. The Nameless made her pay for it with a Dragon Screw with her leg, and then she targeted it through the rest of the match. Breaking Christina's leg seemed to be the goal. They chopped each other and then chopped each other some more. When Christina landed a harsh kick, though it seemed to hurt her. It was enough to take The Nameless off her feet. The crowd came to life for that, but The Nameless shot back up and came back with a barrage of chops to Christina’s chest. She collapsed to the mat. Christina double-underhook suplexed The Nameless and followed with a DDT. Then she hit a running forearm to The Nameless’s head for a near fall. They chopped each other some more followed by some suplexes and a nasty clothesline battle. Both fell over after simultaneous clotheslines. The crowd applauded. The Nameless blocked a spinning backfist and bit into Christina, nearly getting DQ'd. She then hit a clothesline for a near fall. A minute later Christina hit a kick and an Angel Wings attempt, but The Namless lifted her up and hit a variation of the Vertebreaker. Christina was clutching her neck from the landing. The Nameless nailed in elbows and forearms on the mat, trying to bust open Christina, before picking her up for the Spike Piledriver, hurting the neck even more. 1-2-3! The Nameless with the victory, and the unbeaten streak in the E1 continues.
Winner: The Nameless via Spike Piledriver -> Pin -> The Nameless[6]

Larry Grim: And The Nameless with the huge upset!

Apple Kid: She's become a feared combatant in a short amount of time. Did you underestimate her heading in? I doubt you do now.

Makoto Angel: Oh no! Poor Christina! I have to go check on her. *sigh* What a stressful night!

Larry Grim: Well folks, we have one more show before Hunter's Moon. It's the final single stage show for the E1 Climax as well. XP will be coming at you later this week. See you then!

Doctor's Room

Tack was sitting in the room after getting a check up, an ice pack in one hand, and a letter the other.

Tack Angel: I can't believe she already made a copy of the marriage certificate! She said it had to be done for the good of the Scions?! Just who IS this Minfilia?

Miss Xtra: Welcome back to Xtra, where Miss Xtra brings you Xtra, but not THAT much Xtra, because that would require Onlyfans, and I'm keeping some of the goods covered up for Mav Valentine. Unless like...you'd think he'd want me for my personality and sense of humor, and I could be really ugly and it wouldn't matter? HAHAHA! Yeah right! Luckily I'm hilarious AND hot! At least I think so. It's good to think positive thoughts about yourself. It's like self affirmation. I need it after Daddy Trev refused to let me choke on his-



Miss Xtra: Pound me into submission, flip me over, and then finish all over me. Is that too much for a classy, low key, and pure woman like myself to ask? Apparently. Apparently it's a lot to ask. *sigh* So the E1 has been going on, and I think the Women's E1 has been fun. It's been different. I especially like how the BLOCK stages have been A vs. B instead of just in the Semi-Finals, and how the Semi-Finals will see people from the same blocks competing. It's like an inverse of the old formula. Do people out there like it? Steve? We have comments? Let's see...well...SOME of you didn't even notice...and I can't blame...as we didn't advertise it that way. We're running a real shit show here fellas. That's bush league. It's bush league. We have the last card before Hunter's Moon all hot and ready for you, AND some interesting additions to to Hunter's Moon itself. Ninten take it awa-

Ana: Ninten is taking the day off! He's worked so hard the last few weeks while I was....away.

Miss Xtra: Ana?! You're back! I KNEW Ninten was innocent...for the most part.

Ana: You're not being fully honest Xtra.

Miss Xtra: Yeah....yeah.

Ana: My psychic powers grew so powerful that I ascended to a new level of consciousness.

Miss Xtra: ...Oh yeah?

Ana: The things I witnessed. We live inside of a dream.

Miss Xtra: ...Neat!

Ana: But my love for Ninten, and humanity in general was more important to me. I have cast off my ascended state to return to being just plain old Ana....more or less.

Miss Xtra: ...Well I'm glad things are working out for you.

Ana: Moving onto XP, we will see something we never thought we'd see. Trevor Mach and w00t are going to join forces. Yes, you heard that right, or read that right for those in the meta reality. Trevor is going to work with w00t, and it was w00t's idea. Seems suspicious? Well take a look at this.

EBW HQ - Swift's Office

Trevor Mach and w00t were arguing in front of Swift, with Little Mac and Zyro standing behind them.

Trevor Mach: Clearly he's either up to something, or he's batshit INSANE!

Zyro Kurogane: For once, I'm agreeing with that asshole!

Swift: Look, I'm trying to eat my lunch here. Trevor, w00t wanted the match, and I couldn't pass it up. All eyes are going to be on our go home show!

w00t: Look, I'm not saying we're friends. We'll NEVER be friends Mach, not after everything that's happened. That being said, the Stygian Inquisition, think they have a hold on me, and I'm tired of it. Also, you said you wanted a fair fight at Hunter's Moon, and that means making sure you survive until then. I know them...better than anyone else in this room. They're just playing around right now. Do you understand me? That match at Demon Boogie? That was PLAYING to them!

Trevor Mach: The hell do you care about having a fair fight?

w00t: I am Perfection Mach, let's be clear. I am PERFECT...but I'm distracted, and that gets in the way. I'm distracted by you, and by Tack, and that needs to end. I will put aside my differences to achieve my goals. It's what you both wanted, so I'm giving you what you want! I know it sounds like bullshit. I would NEVER trust me. I'm not even telling you to trust me. I'm telling you that for that one night, we have the same goal. I will be free on their grasp, and you won't have excuses when I beat you at Hunter's Moon. It's as simple as that.

Zyro Kurogane: This is such bullshit! You're bullshit w00t! I can't stand around and watch this. I'm out!

Little Mac: There goes the protege.

w00t: ...He'll change his tune when I have that World Championship.

Little Mac: Still intend to hand it over huh?

w00t: It's not about having the title. It's about making a statement. Yes, I still intend to do that.

Swift: The match is happening, it's settled, get the hell out.

Trevor flipped Swift's table, and luckily for the President, it was right as he had the sandwich in his hand.

Swift: ...That was a good flip. Several rotations. Nice.

Trevor Mach: FUCKING THANKS!

Trevor left the room with Mac following behind. w00t left as well, and all three men were surprised to see Tracy storming over to w00t.

w00t: Tracy, I-

Tracy slapped w00t hard across the face.

Tracy: How fucking dare you! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU! Zyro told me what you're doing! How DARE you team up with HIM! WITH THAT BITCH'S HUSBAND! THAT BASTARD!

Trevor Mach: I don't think she likes me.

Little Mac: Fair assessment.

Tracy: YOU'RE FUCKING UP! WE ARE DONE! WE'RE DONE!

Tracy stormed off while w00t grabbed at his face.

Trevor Mach: ...Yikes.

w00t: ...Still think I'm bullshitting you?

Hope Mach, the World Champion, and Christina Angel, the woman she beat for the title. Mach vs. Angel, the rematch we've ALL been waiting for. I wonder if anyone ELSE is excited to see it and-

Real M's: You know I am baby!

Rhea Rampage: I could take it or leave it.

Miss Xtra: Whoa! It's an MCW invasion!

Real M's: Nah, it's just Real Rush, doing what we want, WHEN we want!

Rhea Rampage: She didn't give me much of a choice.

Real M's: Can it! I'm here, because I wanted to make something clear. While I love my daughter, we ARE competitors too, and I wouldn't be doing my job, for my "dear dear" boss, if I didn't try to play the fly in the ointment. The monkey in the wrench. That's why Rhea and I are planning a little party outside of Fourside Arena. We'll be there to have some fun, maybe make all those ladies in the E1 Climax a little nervous? You don't know WHAT we'll do. Just know ladies that you can blame Darkness Aoi...she got our attention.

Rhea Rampage: We're the TRUE best tag team in wrestling. Kids come up to us, and they tell me they want to be like me when they grow up. First off, MASSIVE MISTAKE, but secondly, I highly doubt the same can be said of anyone in EBW. You're just a division in EBW. You're a division of wrestling. We ARE the wrestling.

Real M's: That dark cloud that Aoi's been bitching about, it's coming soon ladies. It's not some dark stupid evil thing that's going to eat you up though. It's the sting of loss and humiliation, when when we provide the better show. We're the better wrestlers, I've been at this for a long time. We're better on the mic....I mean look at me. We're just funnier too right? I feel like we're just funnier.

Rhea Rampage: Alison Chains is pretty funny.

Real M's: Dammit you're right. Well Alison can always come to Wonderland if she wants to make the jump eh? By the way everyone, Destiny 2 is coming very soon. I'm sure you'll happily flip the channel. We're out of here, but first, I want you to repeat to me all that stuff you were saying earlier Xtra. I want to write those down, those were good ideas.

Rhea Rampage: You get off to that stuff?

Real M's: I get off to making Trevor act like the Big Bad Wolf, from that Red Hot Riding Hood cartoon.

The feed cut to a dark room with swinging chains, as The Preacher stepped up to a dimly lit pulpit.

The Preacher: My children, I am a prophet, and I bring you the news. The news is pain, and it will be delivered to Tack Angel. He defies us by standing in the light, when the fire and brimstone call out to him. He's not a good person after all. You all know that. You act like you're not smart, but you are. He can name a city, but you can never truly trust me again, not after all that happened. He broke your trust while indulging in the pleasures of flesh. Hey, we dig it Tack, truly we do. We're on your side, so why not join us down here man? Baphomet beckons. Oh, but you think you're too good for us? You only like to induce the pain, but don't like to feel it yourself? Oh, it's true everyone, we know all about it. Don't believe me? See for yourself. The Angel Family had gotten an expose on Tack Angel pulled, when he was married to a Chosen at ENN. The Auditor has...ways of getting to the deep and dirty secrets.



Anonymous: *distorted* I flew into Crystal Heaven, because I thought they had a Chaos Emerald. Turns out the place was just made of crystal. They captured me, two lesbians dressed like school girls. They took me to him. He was so cold and mean about everything, but he tried to give off this aura of benevolence. Trust me, I can see right through that sort of facade. I can spot a fake a mile away or my name isn't Rou[ghdfohs] the B[qjjejnerjrn]. They gave me a choice. Spend time in prison, or become a personal "fluffer" to the King. He already had one, but apparently that wasn't enough. He had mind broken the other one. Korra was her name. He made me his personal butt slave! I mean who does that! I'M A BA[wherjk] for crying out loud!

The Angel Ranch - Smalltown

Tack Angel and Amy were sitting at the table catching up as the story played on the television. Tack dropped his spoon into an ice cream bowl.

Tack Angel: ...I did...I did what?

Amy Angel: Tack listen, you weren't quite yourself, and really none of us were. We were all under a dark influence and-

Tack Angel: Did I actually do that?!

Amy Angel: Um...YOU didn't...but your body did?

Tack Angel: I made her a butt *gags* a fanny slave?

Amy Angel: ...In a manner of speaking? Remember it was Darkness Angel that-

Tack was already crying in the showing before Amy could finish her statement.

Tack Angel: *ugly crying* Nooo! *sniff sniff* NOOOOO!

Downstairs, Amy was joined by Makoto.

Makoto Angel: Why is Tack sobbing, literally sobbing in the shower and burning his clothes?

Amy Angel: He did that? But...he wasn't even wearing those clothes when-

*knock knock*

Amy Angel: Hang on, someone is at the door.

Amy opened the door to see a heavily breathing Trevor on the other side, having apparently run from his house.

Trevor Mach: Amy, is Tack here?! I have something I want to laugh about!

Amy Angel: You saw the video?

Trevor Mach: HAHAHA! That shit is hilarious! He's stealing my moves now?!

Amy Angel: Uh...I'll see if wants to talk.

Amy left the doorway as Trevor laughed, but then he suddenly stopped.

Trevor Mach: Wait....AMY?! THAT WAS A-

He turned back to the door to see Makoto standing there.

Trevor Mach: Makoto?! Where's Amy!?

Makoto Angel: What are you talking about? Amy is within me remember?

Trevor Mach: I just saw her, when she opened the door.

Makoto Angel: I opened the door.

Trevor Mach: ...I...what?!

Makoto Angel: Maybe you just saw Amy, cause you miss her?

Trevor Mach: No, that's not true in the slightest. You're sweating Makoto.

Makoto Angel: It's hot.

Trevor Mach: IT'S STILL NOVEMBER! Just tell Tack I said...well tell him I was laughing in hysterics OK?

Makoto Angel: Sure will.

Trevor Mach: I'm gonna go home. I'm uh...I'm hallucinating.

Makoto shut the door as a freaked out Amy crept out of the pantry.

Amy Angel: He didn't have to be so blunt about not missing me!

Makoto Angel: True, but don't you not like him anyways?

Amy Angel: I don't NOT like him? *shrugs*  

See that Borash? Butt slave! Steal that shit! I DARE YOU!

Outside of Fourside Arena

The Lakitu pointing at the Fourside Arena turned to the scene across the screen. Several people were surrounding a Merch Van from MCW, as Real M's and Rhea Ripley were handing out shirts.

Real M's: Get your shirts here! Wear the shirts to rep the REAL World Tag Team Champions while you're at it! Get some Real Rush merch. We ARE charging for that though.

Rhea Rampage: Gotta pay for this van! This shit ain't cheap! Come on people, we know you've got the money, and the good news is. we're undercutting the shit you'd buy in there!

Real M's: It's only a couple cents, but still! Where's the lie?

Darkness Aoi and Mitra Lennox approached the van.

Real M's We got a couple of marks right here about to be WORKED!

Rhea Ripley: Oi! It's the pretenders everyone! The wanna be Tag Team Champions of the WORLD! They've got NOTHING on Real Rush.

Darkness Aoi: We're wrestling tonight, what about you two?

Real M's: What you see is what you get Aoi, but if you want to go, we can step out of this booth and throw down right here in the streets.

Rhea Rampage: Yes, the streets, specifically this one we're on, and probably that one over there at the intersection. Literally the streets.

Real M's: So step up if you're feeling froggy.

Rhea Rampage: Mitra over there is looking froggy.

Mitra Lennox: Bitch!

Darkness Aoi: Those are bruises. I'm covered in them too. That's what happens when you fight for your very career and survival on a nightly basis. We're going to show you up, and it won't even be close. Good luck though, with...all of this. You might need to fall back on it when the curse strikes again, and another M's supported wrestling promotion goes down in flames. More than one Mach Curse I suppose you could say.

Real M's: ...Get the fuck out of here...but only AFTER...you buy a fucking t-shirt.

Rhea Rampage: ...That didn't work. They're just...they're just walking away.

Real M's: Damn, you were right, that's NOT an effective marketing technique.

Rhea Rampage: People can be stupid but not that-

Makoto Angel: Ladies, I'm sorry, and you both seem VERY upset, but I'd be more than happy to buy a shirt and then leave.

Real M's: ...

Rhea Rampage: Don't say it. Don't even say it.

EBW: IGNITION
Fourside Arena, Fourside

0. IGNITION Singles: Seto Kaiba vs. Vape
-Vape stepped up to take on the rich and influencial "King of Games" Seto Kaiba, who flashed his Blue Eyes White Dragon card hanging around his neck, and challenging Vape to try and take it. He may be a rookie in ring, but picture in picture footage showed him using his wealth to receive top notch training in expensive facilities. He worked circles around Vape, while also having Rude on the outside get in the way. Jammer ran out to force Rude to back off, but it didn't fix the circumstances in the ring, as Vape gassed out. He hit a series of suplexed on Kaiba, and the crowd loved it, but Vape ran out of juice before Kaiba, so the head of Kaiba Corp. went to the top rope to hit a drop kick and pin the World Tag Team Champion.
Winner: Seto Kaiba via Top Rope Drop Kick -> Pin

0. IGNITION 6-Man Tag: Bashin Dan/Jammer/Benjamin vs. Hazen/Rude/Razorblade
-Seto Kaiba found success in his match, but the Dan Club weren't going to be shut out before Hunter's Moon. The war between Dan Club and Kaiba Corp. was really heating up, and while Dan wants Kaiba more than anyone else in his organization, you wouldn't have known it for how much he wanted after Razorblade as well, ahead of their non-title No Rules match. Benjamin had been flying under the radar in recent weeks, but hit a hard Spear on Rude in the air that knocked him on his back hard for the roll up and pin. Dan Club with the win against Kaiba Corp. in 6-Man Tag action.
Winners: Bashin Dan/Jammer/Benjamin[o] via Spear on Rude -> Pin

0. IGNITION Tag: Zyro Kurogane/Isiah Muscle vs. El Mago/Tony Wonder
-The Magical Duo of El Mago and Tony Wonder started out successful, but the victory had gotten to Tony's head, but the fear of the Shadow Realm brought him back into focus, so much so that he even told his valet Razzle Dazzle to go back to Sin City so I didn't have to make a spr- so as not to distract him! A real turning point...that didn't really save him on this particular occassion. The former World Champion and current ENN+ Champion were all over the opposition, touting that Perfection was stronger than magic. Isiah had Mago locked up on the outside, but somehow, El Mago was able to cuff Muscle to the ring post. He wasn't able to get in to save Wonder from the Straight Jacket Hagen, as Zyro-K let it rip Bey-Bey! 1-2-3! A win for Perfection.
Winners: Zyro Kurogane[o]/Isiah Muscle via Straight Jacket Hagen Suplex -> Tony Wonder -> Pin

Outside of Fourside Arena

Makoto Angel was still standing outside of the van, and behind her, Rhea was attempting to get into the seemingly locked van.

Makoto Angel: Makoto Angel here! I know that we have an amazing E1 Climax to get to tonight, but I just HAD to come and check this out, AND I needed to get a shirt! I mean, I know they're competing with us, but they're neighbors, and I need to try and support them and be friendly, that's just what I do. Rhea looks like she's trapped outside of the van. Rhea, what happened?

Rhea Rampage: The fuck if I know! I was just going across the street to get a big ol' soft pretzel, and when I came back the van was locked, the windows were blacked out, and now the van is....well it's rocking back and forth! I can only assume the most logical outcome.

Makoto Angel: And that is?

Rhea Rampage: Are you seriously that naive?

Makoto Angel: Possibly?

Rhea Rampage: OBVIOUSLY...the van has been possessed by a Deadite!

Makoto Angel: OH MY!

Rhea Rampage: I know! I need a young Priest and an old Priest! I need-

Kinniku Mike: HEY!

A half oiled Kinniku Mike came over, flexing and searching.

Kinniku Mike: Have any of you marks seen my baby oil! How am I supposed to oil up these sick STRONG TITS without the baby oil!? What a lame rib!

Rhea Rampage: ...Oh. Now I get it.

Makoto Angel: What?

Rhea Rampage: It's fine...no demonic possession...just typical shenanigans.

Makoto Angel: Oh?

Rhea Rampage: ...You ever just feel like you need a hose of ice cold water for someone in particular?

Makoto Angel: Um...I can definitely say yes.

The door to the other side of the van opened and closed quickly, as Trevor Mach appeared from around the van, sweating and breathing profusely. He waved to the crowd and tossed a bottle to Mike.

Kinniku Mike: Hey! What the fuck man!

Trevor Mach: Relax! We're all friends now right?

Kinniku Mike: Uuu!

Trevor Mach: Yeah, I know what you mean.

Rhea Rampage: Trevor. What the hell?

Trevor Mach: Rhea! Hey there. I was just...consulting with Tali!

Suddenly, the door to the van facing the camera opened up, and Real M's went about her business, while also sweating and breathing profusely.

Rhea Rampage: ...Dammit Tali!

Real M's: Rhea, you're back from your pretzel break! Great! Now we can get back to wor-

Rhea Rampage: What were you doing?

Real M's: Trevor and I...were having a...uh long...and deep conversation. Talking strategy for tonight. He wanted to show me this variation of the Pump Handle Slam...and that explains the rocking in case you were wondering about all of that. While I...was uh...showing him how a person on the receiving end...can still make someone tap out! Yeah.

Rhea Rampage: ...And the baby oil?

Real M's: I was having a cramp...in my glutes...and Trevor was kind enough to take the time and rub that out for me. That should cover everything. Are you buying it?

Makoto Angel: Sounds reasonable to me! Trevor, since I've got you here, I-

Trevor Mach: I'm leaving. I need at least a gallon of water.

Makoto Angel: Oh. Well then, back to the van then. What are you ladies really trying to prove here tonight?

Rhea Rampage: It's simple really, we're just trying to have some fun, promote our upcoming event, make a little side dough, and really just get under the skin of some people. Like an Orange Man once said, we do a little trolling.

Real M's: It's about- OUCH! I uh...I can't stand up, give me a hand. I guess I've just been sitting too long in here.

Rhea Rampage: Yeah, I'm sure that's it.

Real M's: It's about sending a message. They don't have what it takes, that's the call we're making. I know my daughter is in there. I know tonight she's got a lot on her plate. I wish her the best, but we ARE competing, and if me just being out here, keeps eyes from what's going on in there, then that really says it all doesn't it? I never set out to be the monolith of women's wrestling, but I cast a big shadow. That's the truth of it. I haven't even been a full timer with EBW for quite some time and yet, I'm still the one people talk about. I'm still the measuring stick. It's like I was a part of an era that people can't get over. Euroland wrestling youtubers spend hours making click bait videos about how I was buried alive by Erica to this day. They bring up the Tracy stuff and that makes me cringe, but you get my point!

Rhea Rampage: You're wincing right now...and you seem to be enjoying it.

Real M's: Hmm? Just trying to stretch my lower back! It's uh...it feels...gooood. Yeah.

Rhea Rampage: Uh-huh. I'm trying to get people hyped and unload some merch here! Unload, not a take load!

Real M's: ...I'm confused and unsure of what you're implying.

Rhea Rampage: This is frustrating!

Real M's: Relax, it's just the bantz!

Rhea Rampage: I HATE the bantz!

Tack Angel: Oh my gosh! Me too! I-

Real M's: GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE TACK!

Tack Angel: Right! Leaving!

Real M's: I'd give chase...but I need like...five to ten minutes tops.

Rhea Rampage: *sigh*

Makoto Angel: I'm so confused about what's going on here, but uh...good luck ladies. I say that as your neighbor. As an employee of EBW and ENN I do NOT wish you luck. I don't wish you anything bad either. I just don't wish.

Rhea Rampage: Aren't you and your fellow school girl fetishists going to be in action soon?

Makoto Angel: That's right, we are!

Rhea Rampage: Heh. So that's what it's come down to huh? Lame.

Makoto Angel: Lame? Why? Hey wait, it's not a fetish!


"Yngwie Malmsteen - Only the Strong"



Larry Grim: Welcome to the Fourside Arena. You'll never guess where it's at! We're here for XP! It's not just any XP, but the final XP before Hunter's Moon, where Trevor Mach will defend the EBW World Championship against w00t. Tonight though, they are joining forces, and no one in Perfection seems to be happy about it.

Apple Kid: You're right. Tracy left w00t. She slapped him hard and said they were done. Zyro has been upset about it. He made that clear after winning that Beyblade Tournament this week. Mike and son have been silent so far, but the word is tension...lots and lots of tension. The World Champion seemed a lot less tense on IGNITION, I wonder what his secret is.

Larry Grim: ...It's a mystery. Folks, we have that big match tonight, that will see Trevor and w00t battle The Stygian Inquisition, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. We have the final matches of the Block Stages for the E1 Women's Climax, and the main event is one you can not afford to miss. Hope Mach, the reigning Women's World Champion will take on Christina Angel, the woman she beat for the title. It's the rematch we've been waiting for, but this time with big E1 implications. If Christina wins, I'd say she'd be due a title shot, if I didn't think she was already due one. We've been told that Hope Mach is feeling centered tonight, but I heard the word "Viewtiful" getting thrown around, so I'm concerned.

Apple Kid: HENSHIN A GO-GO BABY! Viewtiful Trevor was the name Trevor used when his face was first revealed by Metal Rush way back in the early days of Xcite. Trevor had been keeping his identity a secret, to ensure that Derek Mach and Fenrir didn't track him down. Obviously, they played a long game and waited for the EBW shows on board the space station to make their move, and I'm deep diving too much into this aren't I?

Larry Grim: It's always good to remember your history, but Viewtiful Trevor was symbolic of a long period of success for Trevor, so if Hope is channeling that "Viewtiful" energy, it means she could be on top of her game tonight. I mean this is a big time match. This is the must see match of the division, so it stands to reason, we have invaders outside tonight, trying to test their name value.

Apple Kid: It's a bold strategy. Makes you wonder how Hope feels, knowing her Mom is right outside like that.

Larry Grim: Can't be an easy situation. Speaking of uneasy situations, no one has seen Erica, but she's supposed to be opening the show against The Nameless. One hasn't lost once in the E1, while the other has barely even been present to the prestigious event. It's drawn the ire of people who think Erica should be treating this tournament with more respect. Will she step up? Will she even BE here? Let's find out.

EBW: XP
Fourside Arena, Fourside
ENN

1. Women's E1 Climax Block B vs. Block A Erica[0] vs. The Nameless[6]
-This match...well it never happened. The Nameless sat in the middle of the ring, just staring and waiting, but Erica never came out. The Auditor seemed to laugh to himself as he made a note in his book. With no Erica, the ref had no choice, but to begin count, and when he hit 10, the match was awarded to The Nameless via a seeming forfeit. The Nameless goes into the E1 Climax Semi-Finals unbeaten.
Winner: The Nameless via Forfeit -> The Nameless[8]

Larry Grim: Well? There you have it. The Nameless goes undefeated into the next stage, and Erica just decided not to show up.

Apple Kid: Honestly, it might be better this way. If Erica came in with the lack of energy she had before, The Nameless might have killed her.

Larry Grim: So Makoto has been working so hard, going backstage to interview people, then coming out here to commentate with us, while also helping to run a ranch in Smalltown, but we'll also be seeing her return to the ring with the rest of her friends at Hunter's Moon. I want to heap more praise on her, but she's apparently blushing profusely, so let's just cut to her outside, where a major development is taking place. Let's go.

Outside of Fourside Arena

Makoto Angel: *blushing* Well Larry, I'd certainly like to be in there with you guys, but I'm glad I waited a little longer, because the EBW Women's World Champion Hope Mach and Christina Angel have just come outside to confront MCW's Real Rush! Stand back everyone!

Hope Mach: Mom, what are you doing?

Real M's: Everyone keeps asking that today. I'm just having a little fun Hope. I can't help it that we're getting swarmed. I bet a lot of these people bought EBW tickets too, or at least would have. They're out here buying our shirts instead. Really makes you think. Also speaking of shirts, isn't that your Dad's shirt?

Hope Mach: I'm feeling Viewtiful tonight! Looking to have some fun of my own! Don't really need the distraction out here!

Christina Angel: It's uncouth. I'll admit I don't use that word much, but I heard Benjamin saying it, and it really fits. This is uncouth.

Real M's: You want to know what's "uncouth" Christina? Moving into Trevor's town that I tolerate, and setting up a ranch on the other side of town. Your Dad did that. Like usual, he didn't give a shit what other people thought about it. It's the one thing about him I respect. Not giving a shit. I don't give a shit. That's the moral of the story Christina. In case you haven't been paying attention, I just sort of do what I feel like. Life is too short to bother worrying about what other people think. If I want to sell these shirts, then I'm gonna do it. If I want to "practice wrestling holds"....with Trevor...while Rhea is on a soft pretzel break, then I'm gonna! If I want to embarrass EBW's Women's Division then I'm GONNA! Right now, that's what I feel like doing, because when I actually gave a shit, it was about that division, and without me, it turns into a shit show!

Rhea Rampage: You're getting heated. Calm down. You want your Capri Sun?

Real M's: *sigh* Yes, you know I do. *sips Capri Sun* That's better.

Hope Mach: Mom, I do get the point. You don't think we're raising the bar. You don't think we're taking enough risks. I GOT AN IDEA! You want to see a risk? How about this people! EVERYONE LISTEN! Christina, what do you say that our match tonight is not JUST an E1 Block Stage match. It's also going to be....FOR THE EBW WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!

Christina Angel: Absolutely!

Hope Mach: Sound good people?

Everyone popped for the announcement and began to head back inside.

Alison Chains: Wow, I want to see that!

Hope Mach: Is that Alison Chains?! Where is she?! Is she in the crowd?! Is she after me again?!

Christina Angel: Don't you have a match that's literally next?

Alison Chains: I do? I better go inside then.

Hope Mach: What do you think about that Mom.

Real M's: Damn...cold blooded. Good job! *thumbs up* Come here, I want to tussle your hair.

Hope Mach: Mom.

Real M's: Proud of yooooou.

Hope Mach: That's cringey. Knock that off.

Real M's: Proooooud.

Hope Mach: MOM!

2. Women's E1 Climax Block A vs. Block B: Darkness Aoi[4] vs. Alison Chains[2]
-Aoi was fired up, from her exchange with the outside invaders earlier in the night, and wasn't having any of Alison's games, slapping her across the face to get her to stop clowning around and actually fight. Chains was into it, and demanded more, before finally throwing some slaps, chops, and kicks of her own. She was wild in her offense, and had Aoi caught off guard, but an exposed turnbuckle collision to Chains helped Aoi turn the tide. Chains grounded Aoi with an armbar. Aoi backed Chains to a corner and hit a few corner lariats. Suplex by Aoi. Aoi set up Chains in the Tree of Woe and threw a few shots and then hit a running knee. The crowd chanted “Chains” and Aoi derisively motioned to the crowd. Aoi walked right into an armbar submission. Aoi tried to fight out with a slam, but Chains hit a DDT on the arm she’d been working. Chains continued torturing the left arm. Aoi was screaming in agony, but fought through the pain, even using the targeted arm to blast Chains with the Darkness Bomber. Chains looked up and said she saw swirling birds before taking a wacky bump. Aoi rolled up the Television Champion for the pin and the points.
Winner: Darkness Aoi via Darkness Bomber -> Pin -> Darkness Aoi[6]

Apple Kid: A competitive match, but Aoi fought through the pain to get the win. She felt motivated from that one. You can tell.

Larry Grim: Only one loss, and it was to Mitra. The World Tag Team Champion is definitely advancing along with The Nameless to the Semi-Finals. How about that big news earlier though. Hope Mach is putting the World Championship on the line against Christina Angel tonight. That already huge match, just got bigger!

Apple Kid: It doesn't get any bigger. Normally, the E1 Winner gets the title shot, but the champ might be different before we even get there. Heck, what if Christina wins and then wins the E1. She's be able to complete the double challenge in a very unique way. Considering how many records she has smashed in the past, it's very possible.

Larry Grim: Before we move onto that as well as the next match, we have Makoto, who is making her way to us, but first look who she ran into!

Backstage

Makoto Angel: Makoto here, with my one and only hubby wubby! It's Tack Angel! The Pushpin Seraphim! The Star Prince! The Milk Man!

Tack Angel: Milk Man? I like that, I'm the Milk Man.

Makoto Angel: Are you ready for your match with The Auditor at Hunter's Moon?

Tack Angel: I am, but first I want to address the recent leaks. People online have been lumping me in with Trevor and calling us #bummingbros, and I think that's a little out of line. I've been in a bad place for a long time, but it was out of my control. The me you know and the me that loves Fourside and how it's got four sides and stuff, would never do that sort of thing! I can feel Makoto's body heat right now, and it's making my nose bleed! I'm not capable of it! These are all just tactics to bring out a darkness that doesn't exist in me anymore. It can't. I can't be that person anymore. The Preacher and his Inquisition are here to send a message from Hell, but I'll stand up for the light, and I'll face down the monster. All I want is to prove myself again, as a force for good. I want to rebuild your trust in me, and I want to fight for you in the awesome city of Fourside, with its great food and sports teams, and local traditions which are better than that stuff when it's out of town. I-

The room went black, and The Preacher stepped forward behind Tack and Makoto, standing behind the mesh fencing of the interview area.

The Preacher: Be cool babies, it's all good. The Preacher is just here to enlighten you. The Auditor will count up your sins Mr. Angel. The Assessor will clip your wings. The Witness will experience it, and The Nameless will bask in your pain. We will enjoy inflicting pain and punishment, and we will enjoy making you enjoy it. Peace.

The Preacher stepped back, and the lights came back on.

Makoto Angel: Is he gone? Oh good. *clears throat* AHHHHH!

Tack Angel: He's just trying to get under my skin. It's fine. I'm cool as a cucumber. Nothing can-

Geoff Garrett: Alright slap head security, listen up, we need to scour the area and find The Preacher!

Tack Angel: ....

Saxon: Right! How dare he interrupt Tack! Right Tack? Right Tack? Right Tack?

Novus: We're on it Tack!

Saxon: Right Tack? Right Tack? Right Tack?

Tack Angel: Happy place....happy place.

3. Women's E1 Climax Block B vs. Block A: Mitra Lennox[2] vs. Gianna Rambaldi[4]
-The first solid match up of the night, where the two wrestlers were present and not high on psychedelics. Mitra was riding a wave of momentum now that she showed she could go with Aoi, in their excellent match up, but Gianna Rambaldi was dead set on playing spoiler and making it to the Semi-Final stages. The two women locked up and jockeyed for control until Lennox gets a clean break. Rambaldi got a clean break right after and Lennox ducked a massive kick. We got a fast paced back and forth sequence that ended with Rambaldi putting Lennox in a grounded armlock. That lead to some great scientific wrestling and countering as Lennox escaped a cross armbreaker into a double leglock. Rambaldi countered that with a rollover into a pin for a one-count, leading to a stalemate. More back and forth action followed, as the crowd were more and more behind what Rambaldi could do in the ring.
Winner: Gianna Rambaldi via Violet Excellence -> Pin -> Gianna Rambaldi[6]

Apple Kid: Excellence from Violet Excellence! Gianna Rambaldi scores a big win there, and puts herself into position to advance. Very exciting for the Euroland Princess. I-

Makoto Angel: Hey guys!

Apple Kid: Makoto! You finally made it!

Makoto Angel: I've been very busy.

Larry Grim: We missed you.

Makoto Angel: I was getting a little scared back there. Hehe.

Larry Grim: Well you're safe here, and just in time to see Trevor Mach and w00t team up to take on The Stygian Inquisition!

Makoto Angel: Oh...oh boy. *gulp*

Perfection Locker Room

w00t left the room, with Zyro in hot pursuit.

Zyro Kurogane: w00t! Stop!

w00t: What?! I already told you, I'm doing this!

Zyro Kurogane: You're a fool! You're being a fool! Who cares about this match! Let me get slaughtered! That's better for us!

w00t: I am the better man! I am Perfection! That includes being honorable enough to fulfill my agreement. I will fight alongside Trevor Mach, because I am SICK of these sadomasochistic freaks having a hold on my soul! I'm sick of it!

Zyro Kurogane: I already talk to Mike and Isiah. If you go out there, then you're on your own. Not just in this match, but going forward. No more Perfection.

w00t: I take Perfection with me wherever I go. Haven't you realized? I AM PERFECTION!

Blood 4 Blood Locker Room

Trevor made his way out, with Mav following behind, but he turned to stop him.

Trevor Mach: I said I was going alone.

Mav Valentine: Right, and I'm going alone too, I just happen to be going to the same place.

Trevor Mach: The agreement was that we'd go out alone. I'm going to do that. I'm going to hold up my end of the bargain. It's cool Mav, I got this. Thanks for the back up though.

Mav Valentine: You're in way too good of a mood for this.

Trevor Mach: Had a nice time with Tali earlier, and she gives me all the motivation I need.

Mav Valentine: I thought I saw you limping earlier. Fine man, just be careful out there. You called us a band of brothers when you formed this group with us, and I take that sort of thing literally.

Trevor Mach: Me too brother. Me too. Thanks man.

4. Tag: Trevor Mach/w00t vs. The Assessor/The Witness
-The most unlikely team in EBW history joined forces to battle The Assessor and The Witness. They were tentative getting into the ring together, but slowly worked out a plan. w00t even went in first and stepped up to The Assessor and The Witness. No member of Perfection or Blood 4 Blood were going to be allowed at ringside, but that didn't stop The Auditor and the Preacher from being ringside. After several minutes of action, the Inquisition settled into isolating him for a while. The Auditor interfered at ringside. Trevor eventually got the hot-tag and got a nice pop. He gave The Witness a Busaiku Knee Kick for a two count. w00t appeared to be in agony as he fought to his feet in the corner. Mach went back and forth with the Inquisition, as they tried to wear him down. As he went over to tag w00t, he expected w00t to not tag in, but w00t was more than happy to, and performed a few double teams moves on their monster opponents. Late in the match, the MCW World Champion Tracy appeared at ringside and looked like she was going to slap w00t again, but quickly changed her direction and low blowed Trevor instead. w00t who was staggering, suddenly stood up smiling and hit the wKo on Trevor. He shrugged as the fans booed, like he was surprised they bought it before slipping the tongue to Tracy. The Assessor picked up the World Champion and hit the Black Hole Slam to get the pinfall on Trevor. After the match, The Assessor picked Trevor up and put him against a turnbuckle. w00t thanked him and repeatedly smashed Trevor's head against the metal, calling him an idiot for ever thinking they could work together. He laughed as Trevor bled from every hit. He kept hitting him an uncomfortable amount of times, as Red Shirts and Black Shirts came out to try and stop him. The Black Shirts were obliterated, but the Red Shirts calmed the situation down.  
Winners: The Assessor[o]/The Witness via Black Hole Slam on Trevor Mach -> Pin

After the action, w00t tossed Trevor to the mat, as Blood 4 Blood came out to help. w00t went to the stage where Tracy and Perfection were waiting to celebrate with him.

w00t: Hey, I kept my word. No member of Perfection got involved, but Tracy, my beloved, she's not IN Perfection now is she? You were all idiots for assuming I'd EVER work with that scum bag. I don't believe in a soul, so I don't give a shit what the Inquisition has on me, and if they have, they can have it. I don't care. It'd be better to rule in Hell, then serve in Heaven, and if I'm ever going to Hell, then I will damn sure drag Trevor Mach with me, just as soon as I take the World Championship and make a mockery of his reign, his life, and his legacy. Of course if he's not medically cleared...well that would just a be "shame" wouldn't it? HAHAHAHA!

Outside of Fourside Arena

Real M's was watching on her phone, when she saw what happened to Trevor.

Real M's: Dammit Tracy! You bitch! I'm going to kill her. I'll kill her myself! I'll kill her right now!

Rhea Rampage: That COULD something we pursue...if you want to go to prison.

Real M's: ...So?

Rhea Rampage: Tag titles? Farm? Family?

Real M's: ...It'd still be worth it?

Rhea Rampage: ...You're new PC is coming in the mail.

Real M's: Dammit, you're right! Fine, I guess I'll go check on Trevor. You drive this van back would you?

Rhea Rampage: Sure, but where does it go?

Real M's: ...

Rhea Rampage: You don't know?

Real M's: ...

Rhea Rampage: You stole it didn't you?

Real M's: ...I borrowed it.

Rhea Rampage: Dammit Tali!

Real M's: Wakka wakka!

5. Women's E1 Climax Block A vs. Block B + EBW Women's World Championshp: Hope Mach[4] vs. Christina Angel[4]
-Main event time, as "Viewtiful" Hope Mach, the EBW Women's World Champion faced off with best friend and rival Christina Angel. The winner would not only advance in the E1, but be the Women's World Champion. The top prize was on the line, and all eyes were now on the EBW Women's Divison. They locked knuckles to start, Hope pushed Christina to the mat, but Christina bridged back up and they ended up facing off again. Kick by Hope, but Christina threw her into the corner, Hope fired out of it with a shoulderblock, Christina kipped up, but Hope shoulderblocked her again. Hope kicked Christina out of the ring and went out after her, slamming Christina onto the floor. Another scoop slam by Hope, she picked up Christina and rammed her back-first into the ring post. Hope slid Christina back in and hit a lariat in the corner followed by a backbreaker. Cover by Hope, but it got two. Hope went for a crab hold, but Christina blocked it and hit a double footstomp, she went off the ropes, but Hope caught her with another backbreaker. Hope threw Christina out of the ring and went out as well, but Christina slid back in as she did. They repeated these steps again, but this time Christina dropkicked Hope back to the floor and hit a sliding headscissors under the bottom rope. Christina slid Hope back in and went to the top turnbuckle, hitting a missile dropkick. Christina picked up Hope, but Hope blocked the suplex attempt and elbowed her. Christina elbowed her back and they traded shots, Christina went off the ropes, but Hope kneed her in the midsection. Christina kneed her back, but Hope blocked the big Angel kick and they traded elbows again. After a minute of trading elbows Christina finally sent Hope crashing to the mat, more elbows by Christina  but Hope fired up and returned to her feet to return the favor. More elbows from both until they both fell to the mat, holding their heads. They slowly got up at the same time, Christina charged in, but Hope dropped her with a backdrop suplex. Single leg crab hold by Hope, Christina crawled to the ropes and eventually made it to force the break. Hope picked up Christina and got her on her shoulders in an Olympic Slam, she threw her off after a moment and hit a lariat. Sliding lariat by Hope, but her cover got two. Hope got Christina on her shoulders again and hits the Olympic Slam, but again Christina kicked out. Hope threw Christina into the corner and lariated her in the back, she put her on the second turnbuckle to get her on her shoulders, but Christina slid off and hit a spinning heel kick. Christina hit a rolling fisherman suplex into a backslide, Hope rolled through it, but Christina booted her in the face. Christina positioned Hope and went to the top turnbuckle, but Hope rolled out of the way of the Firebird Splash. Kick to the head by Christina, but Hope leveled her with a headbutt. She shot around for the Hagen, but Christina escaped and planted Hope with a pump kick. Christina picked up Hope and hit a sitout fisherman driver. 1-2-KICKOUT! Christina went to the top turnbuckle and nailed the Firebird Splash, but Hope got a shoulder up on the cover. Christina tried to put Hope in the Angel Wings, but Hope flipped her up and over. Elbows by Hope while they stood on the turnbuckles, but Christina jumped over Hope’s back in an attempted powerbomb. Hope blocked that so Christina dropkicked her instead, she re-joined Hope on the turnbuckles, but Hope blocked the Frankensteiner with a powerbomb. Hope waited for Christina to get up and nailed the jumping knee, she picked up Christina and delivered the powerbomb, but Christina barely kicked out. Hope dragged up Christina and threw her into the corner. Lariat to the back by Hope and she sat Christina on the second turnbuckle. Running powerbomb by Hope, but Christina kicked out ya again. Hope picked up Christina and elbowed her against the ropes, lariat by Hope, but Christina landed on her feet on the apron. Christina spring boarded back in the ring but Hope caught her with a lariat, another lariat by Hope and she went for the Olympic Slam. Christina escaped, and went for the Angel Driver, but Hope escaped that as well. Hope finally managed to shoot Christina to the mat, where she went for the Ankle Lock. Christina was fighting out of it, so Hope changed tactics and locked in the Lebell Lock. Christina was in agony, but refused to tap out. She made it to the ropes. Hope was shocked, but quickly lifted Christina up and hit the Olympic Slam. 1-2-3! The World Champion won the hard fought war with the former World Champion.
Winner: Hope Mach via Olympic Slam -> Hope Mach[6] -> Title Defense!

Larry Grim: That was unbelievable!

Apple Kid: Holy shit what a match!

Makoto Angel: I am blown away. The level of brutality and athleticism on display. Christina tried her best, and I'm so proud of her, but Hope was able to finally put her away. It took her everything she had to do it though.

Larry Grim: This is what we love to see. Hope Mach retains the title after that MOTY candidate, and now she'll be moving forward in the Women's E1. Folks, in Threed we will see who wins it all. The E1 Women's Climax will reach its climax at Hunter's Moon, and hopefully, if Trevor is cleared, we'll see Trevor vs. w00t for the EBW World Championship. We'll see Tack against The Auditor. We'll see a World Tag Team Championship rematch! We'll see a debut! We'll see the Television Championship on the line. We'll see so much, so make sure you check it out! It justifies ENN+ as an app! We'll see you in Threed! Hunter's Moon!

Angel Ranch

A chipper and happy Tack Angel whistled his way into his home, feeling celebratory about his victory over The Auditor. As he walked in, expecting to get a nose bleed inducing group hug, he instead found the wives yelling at each other, and throwing things.

Tack Angel: Hey ladies, I-WHOA!

Faris Angel: This is driving me crazy! I can't be stuck here anymore! I HAVE TO GET OUT!

Nani Angel: You make it sound like you're not the cause of the problems. Your snoring awakens the whole house.

Iroha Angel: I didn't realize I was going to get out more by existing in Makoto's subconscious!

Tack Angel: Ladies, calm down please, I-

Someone threw something across the room and it bonked Tack, knocking him out. He awoke to find his wives looking down at him.

Tack Angel: Am I dead?

Toadette Angel: No, I had a 1-Up handy just in case.

Tack Angel: Do those really work? Never mind that, I need help up. My head is killing me. What's going on here?

Amy Angel: Well, to be honest we've all gone a little stir crazy being trapped on the ranch. We understand the situation, that revealing us would open up a torrent of problems all over again, but we can't stay here.

Tack Angel: Yeah, I understand that, I just don't know what to do. I-

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, as a man dressed like a park ranger, complete with short shorts, but with a menacing Clint Eastwood like face entered the room.

Tack Angel: Um...did I forget to pay a bill?

?: Sir...I just have one question for you.

Tack Angel: Was it the gas bill?

?: Will you...sign my hat?

Tack Angel: Huh?

?: I'm a huge fan. You are the stuff of legends sir. Absolute legends!

Tack Angel: I'm sorry...I'm very confused, and while that's common, this is extra confused. Who are you?

?: The name is Remington. Agent Remington...and I come from Crystal Heaven.

Tack Angel: What?!

Moments later, Tack and Remington were sitting down, surrounded by all the wives.

Tack Angel: You said you were from Crystal Heaven, but I thought it was gone now.

Eros Angel: No my love, Crystal Heaven was saved. It went to the Shake Dimension.

Agent Remington: That's where I have to interject my Queen. Forgive me, but we did NOT end up in the Shake Dimension. Something else happened. It's hard to say, because I was so young, but the stories say that we collided with an object known as the "Zero Point" and found our way...to Earth-5.

Tack Angel: Earth-5?! Wait, stories? You said I was legendary earlier too. How long were you on Earth-5?

Agent Remington: ...It's been ten years sire.

Tack Angel: Ten years?!

Faris Angel: Wait, I was just on Earth-5. We didn't see you there.

Agent Remington: We were cloaked, and protected from the outside world by Rishin Fliger, but suddenly, the walls came down, and more to the point, the walls between our Earths began to come down as well. That's how I ended up here. I spent time scouting the area, and making sure it was the right Earth, but this is our origin point. A new generation has been raised hearing about how you saved us all.

Tack Angel: It was a joint effort really. I couldn't have done it without everyone. My daughters...they made the difference.

Agent Remington: In more ways than you know sire. Several of them appeared over Earth-5 this year, and turned themselves into a brilliant cascade that returned the blue skies to Earth-5. They saved the atmosphere, which will allow Earth-5 to be rebuilt.

Tack Angel: I bet the locals are thrilled with that, but how do they feel about having you all there?

Agent Remington: General Swift, Christina Angel-Mach, Justice Mach, and their son William appeared to greet us as we explained the situation. Since we were sent back ten years, we had to remain hidden to avoid changing the past. They were just happy to have friends, and see blue skies, water, and trees beginning to grow again.

Faris Angel: Wow, Christina had her baby?

Tack Angel: Excuse me?! Christina Angel-Mach!? William?! I need to sit down.

Nani Angel: You are already sitting down.

Tack Angel: Oh right. This is just so much to take in. What else could happen?

Makoto Angel: Um...everyone...check out the television? Something weird is happening.

Everyone huddled in front of the television as the reporter spoke of major breaking news.

Reporter: We repeat, this is not a hoax, and I understand why people would think that these days, as our track record is irredeemable, but we swear this story is actually happening. Several nations, entire countries, have suddenly gone missing. Hyrule in Euroland is gone. The Acorn Kingdom in Edo is gone as well. Maybe even more! We're still trying to figure it out! The landmasses are gone, but it's like they were never there to begin with! Roads don't just stop. We don't have giant holes in the ground. We're now being told that the money laundering capital of Euroland Ukrap has gone missing as well, but the President, who was making a movie and getting blown by celebrities while his people died, is still asking for the last bit of food from your starving children's mouths, so he was promptly fired...out of a cannon...towards the sun. Here's hoping he makes it there. The world is in chaos people. Absolute chaos and disarray....and we'll talk more about it right after these commercial messages.

Vape: Hey Vape here, with the Vape Dild-

Tack turned down the TV to think.

Tack Angel: Could this have something to do with the Cloud of Darkness? Sally...Zelda...this...where did they go? In fact...where did like...half of the wives go?

Nani Angel: The mermaids are gone too.

Tack Angel: WHAT?!

Agent Remington: That's something else we needed to discuss sire. People and places have been appearing all over Earth-5, like it's rebuilding itself with bits and pieces of different places.

Tack Angel: Which is what happened to this Earth after "Entity V" and- wait, the news is back on. I'm going to turn it up.

Reporter: And again, we'd like to wish Agnes a wonderful 90th birthday. It's a beautiful day in Eagleland, and the weather looks like it's going to hold all week except for occasional showers in the mid west. In celebrity news-

Tack turned the TV off.

Tack Angel: I don't get it. They're not reporting on what just happened? That was a major crisis event, and now they're acting like it never happened? How did-

*knock knock*

Tack Angel: So much going on today! Look, I'm having a crisis so-

Tack stopped as he noticed his house was now surrounded by cars and helicopters. Standing before him was Ana, flanked by Jeff Andonuts, Mr. Face, and Gordon Cole.

Ana: You want to know what's going on, and I'm here to explain it all. I want to make it nice and convenient for you. Will you step outside please?

Tack Angel: Uh...sure? Ana, what's going o-

Gordon Cole: I KNOW THAT YOU'RE CONFUSED MR. ANGEL, BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU STEPS ARE BEING TAKEN TO CONTROL THE BLUE ROSE SITUATION!

Tack Angel: Control the situation?! How? Whole countries just disappeared, as did some of my wives, and...MY COW- *cough cough* ELVES ARE GONE?! WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

Jeff Andonuts: Ana told me you'd know about the Zero Point by the time we arrived yes?

Tack Angel: It was mentioned.

Jeff Andonuts: Apparently, it's an unstable force that was introduced into the Sanctum that controls all of reality, and is working to rebuild Earth-5 using the remnants of worlds that were merged with Earth-1 after the "Entity V" incident.

Tack Angel: Oh!

Jeff Andonuts: That made sense to you?

Tack Angel: Not a bit.

Ana: Tack, I transcended. I saw beyond the veil, what few people have seen. What Gordon Cole dreams of every night, I was there. The Sanctum. The creative energy that surrounds the multi-verse, and further beyond the conflict of the author. When I returned I kept that insight, and realized I was given these world changing powers for a purpose. I can erase memories. I can plant memories. I can convince the whole world that things happened or did not happen, and then I realized it didn't have to be linear.

Mr. Face: We never knew WHY people would suddenly forget cataclysmic events, and just assumed they wanted to forget. In reality, it was Ana from the future, working with us to ensure the world could remain peaceful after such events.

Ana: I just convinced the world that those places never existed. They are all on Earth-5, as are your wives. It's calling on your whole family to go to their new home.

Tack Angel: What?

Jeff Andonuts: Tack, you've got a whole planet to play with "Star Prince". They're gonna need their King, if Crystal Heaven is going to be the new capital of Earth-5.

Tack Angel: I-I-I-I-

Trevor Mach: AHA!

Tack Angel: OH NO!

Trevor Mach: I KNEW IT! THE WIVES ARE BACK! I KNEW IT!

Tack Angel: Uh...Ana quick, make him forget!

Ana: I can't. He's the avatar of the author!

Trevor Mach: I AM NOT! Tack, what the hell is going on here?!

Tack Angel: Um...I'm apparently going to Earth-5?

Trevor Mach: ...Huh?

Tack finally explained everything to Trevor, who grit his teeth, as he sweat profusely, turning red in the face with rage.

Tack Angel: It was a reward for saving Makoto and making the right choice. However, it seems it won't be a problem, because the wives seem to all be on board with going with Agent Remington back to Earth-5.

Trevor Mach: So...you're leaving then?

Tack Angel: I guess I-

Amy Angel: No.

Tack and Trevor: No?

Amy Angel: Tack, you can't leave Earth-1. This is home, and it needs you just as much as Earth-5 does.

Makoto Angel: I'm not leaving either.

Tack Angel: But they need me don't they?

Amy Angel: What happens when you have an A or B problem Tack?

Tack Angel: Huh? I don't know.

Trevor Mach: Even I know what she's getting at. Option C. You always pull a Tack and pick the Tack option. Idiot.

Tack Angel: You mean...stay here AND go to Earth-5?

Agent Remington: The path is stable sir. You could "commute" to work.

Tack Angel: Huh. So basically...everything that's complicated in my life...will exist on Earth-5? Forgive me for pulling another "Tack" as you would put it, but I'm going to bite off even more. Ana, can you make it so the world forgets about the whole multiple wives thing?

Ana: You want them to forget?

Tack Angel: I want to repair my relationships with everyone, and start fresh. I can't go back and undo any of it, but I would prefer it if people-

Trevor Mach: You just want to get away with all of it scot-free?

Tack Angel: Yeah?

Trevor Mach: ...That's sensible...sure...you should do that. Do I need to be here for this? I'm going home. Bye everybody.

Tack Angel: ...He's got a lot of conflict going on inside of him.

Makoto Angel: I love this idea, because I could stop dying my hair and wearing the spray on tan!

Ana: So to recap, everything and everyone related to Tack Angel is going to Earth-5, with the exception of Tack and Makoto except for when they want to, and the world will forget about Tack's polygamy. Everybody got that? Great. *blink*

Tack and Makoto found themselves shaking off the stupor of hypnosis. They were alone now, with vague memories of heartfelt goodbyes swirling through their heads. They knew that the people they loved were a planet away, but for them, that was just a small walk out into the backyard.

Tack Angel: That uh...that was some morning huh?

Makoto Angel: I'll say.

Tack Angel: So we both agree we're going back to our old hair colors right?

Makoto Angel: Absolutely.

Tack Angel: Great. This makes things MUCH simpler!

Trevor Mach: *in the distance* Hey!

Tack Angel: Huh?

Trevor Mach: *in the distance* Does this mean I can buy that property now?

Tack Angel: Ummm...no? I mean we still need a place to live, and it's the gateway to our other home on Earth-5 now so-

Trevor Mach: *in the distance* Oh yeah yeah sure! I get it! Worth a shot! I'm gonna go home and ice down my marbles now! Tracy kicked me in the balls you know? She's a bitch!

Tack Angel: ...*sigh* Tell me about it.

Makoto Angel: Hehe.

Tack Angel: At least everything is far more simple no-

A dog suddenly trotted up to Tack.

Tack Angel: Oh hello there little fella! Are you lo-

Star Dog: Bark bark! I'm Star Dog, and I'll be your loyal guardian and protector till the end! Bark bark!

Tack Angel: ...Oh no.

Kuroshiro Age - Las Vegas Strip

Humans were running about as the Makai Monsters were making havoc on the various casinos. Leading the attack was Tarous Drey, the Bull of the Makai.

Man: Someone! Help us!

Tarous Drey: Kneel pitiful mortals, when you die you'll be wonderful minions for our fields!

Monsters slashed and clawed at the humans, and upon death were transformed into zombie like selves. A side effect of the twisted world of Kuroshiro.

Tarous Drey: Hahaha! Well done! Let's now enjoy the night!

The group of newly made zombies started shambling off as a few monsters led them to a portal leading to farm fields to work. Tarous was accompanied by a few monsters as they entered a Showgirls show. Upon entering they chased off a few humans and took a seat at a booth. In the world of Kuroshiro, the world must go on to try and have a sense of normalcy. Nervous waiters attended to Tarous and his entourage, as they were menacingly civil. The opening act of strippers tried to act professional but we're obviously scared out of their wits. The music ended and the naked ladies and men gathered their tips and ran off. Soon, a crescendo of music played and the lights shone brightly. Six catgirls then took to the stage and danced, catching the attention of the audience, especially Tarous. The catgirls glammed in feathers, boas, & the little fur covering their bodies were entrancing. Tarous stood up from the booth and stomped over the table to get a closer look. The catgirls kept their focus and danced their routine as Tarous started to paw at their loose garb.

Tarous Drey: Oh ladies, how'd you feel about giving me a private show?

The catgirls ignored the request and kept dancing.

Tarous Drey: Hey! I'm talking to you!

Tarous tried to grab one of the catgirls but they slyly danced away from Tarous' grasp. Causing Tarous to accidentally lose balance and slam face first on the stage. Tarous' entourage laughed at his misfortune as Tarous got red in the face and steam rose from his horns.

Tarous Drey: Hey! Listen! I'm the head of the Drey household and you will acknowledge me with respect!

The catgirls ignored him and continued their routine. This caused Tarous to slam the stage with his fists and climb on top.

Tarous Drey: You Makai girls have obviously spent too much time with these humans! I think you'll now be perfect slave dancers for House Drey!

Tarous started to approach the girls but was met with a ball to the face and a dropkick to the stomach as a catgirl knocked him off stage.

Tarous Drey: How dare you!

The catgirls stopped dancing and stood together, one stepped forward.

Grace: I, Catgirl Grace representing the humans of Las Vegas officially challenge House Drey in this conflict! On honor of the Three High Noble Families!

Tarous was miffed at the statement, knowing his House was in lower rank than the High Noble Families of Aensland, Dohma, and Bosital.

Tarous Drey: House Drey accepts the challenge!

The few humans left in the hall quickly dispersed as a wrestling ring appeared and a ghost referee fazed into sight.

Referee: Who takes to the ring?

Grace: Catgirls Nonna, Alto, & myself to represent the humans!

Tarous Drey: My underlings Bone, Thug, & Harmony will represent House Drey!

Referee: Enter the ring!

The catgirls and the underling bulls took to the ring, the ghost referee floated around the entrants and then took to the middle of the ring.

Referee: Ready? Fight!

Cat's World
Las Vegas, NV
Casino Showgirls (Grace, Nonna, & Alto) vs House Drey (Bone, Thug, & Harmony)

Grace, the big buff catgirl of the Showgirls started off with the bull Thug. Thug went for some punches to Grace's midsection but Grace blocked it with her abs. Thug tried to slice Grace with his horn but was met with some claws to the face. Grace lifted up Thug and racked him across her shoulders. Grace locked Thug in place and pulled down hard, breaking Thug's back. Grace then casually dropped Thug, with Thug planting face first.

Referee: Down! Fight!

Grace tagged out to Alto, as Thug was dragged out by some minions. Bone stepped in and started to try to intimidate Alto, which was successful as Alto started to cower. Tarous started laughing on the outside of the ring as Bone trash talked to the other catgirls. Bone was caught unaware as Alto, with her eyes closed, climbed on the back of Bone and started scratching at Bone's face. Bone ran around the ring trying to get Alto off, but Alto stayed on and continued to scratch. After a while, Bone then dropped to his knees, Alto jumped off and ran to her corner as it was revealed that Bone's face was ripped off. Bone then dropped as his body went into shock.

Referee: K.O.! Winners, Casino Showgirls!

The ring and referee then disappeared. The catgirls celebrated together as Tarous and his entourage willingly left through a portal to House Drey, the recently Zombified humans being cured and walking past the gang. The humans then ran up to the catgirls and thanked them profusely.

Human: Oh thank you! Thank you!

Nonna: Be sure to come back next show!

Nonna spun her ball on her claw as the humans gave the catgirls tips in appreciation.

Deep Underground - MTR Testing Facility Cafe

Grimoire was sitting at the cafe of the underground, having breakfast with a stack of pancakes. A waitress walked over and refilled his coffee.

Grimoire: Thank you.

Waitress: No problem hun, want another stack?

Grimoire: Yes please, but keep this syrup away from me. I'm not used to this sweetness yet.

Waitress: I'll get you a couple butter packs then, hang tight cutie.

Grimoire took in the sights of the cafe as he noted scientist carrying their work with them as they ate, he noted there were other MTRs there as well being treated nicely like they have with him. Grimoire being used to seeing odd and mysterious things from hopping Age to Age like Riven & Er'cana; paid no mind to things like sentient robots, talking plants, or seemingly similar anthropomorphic chickens. Grimoire happened to notice that the Age he was required to write, Kuroshiro, was with a scientist as he was deep in concentration in typing in his tablet. Grimoire looked around and calmly walked over to the stack and swiped it, bringing it back to his table. He palmed through the book to see if they messed with anything but upon observing the Age, it seemed to be fine. The D'ni script he wrote in the book with seemed to be flowing naturally from where he left off.

Grimoire: Well, looks like they haven't deciphered D'ni yet. And they haven't taken my inkwells yet, so they wouldn't be able to change things. Let me see further.

Grimoire read further and saw what had happened in the World recently.

Grimoire: Things seem to be working like I hoped, at least they have a fighting chance. And looking around, I don't see that anyone touched the book. No anomalies.

Grimoire looked around and then splayed out the book. He took an inkwell & pen from his belt and placed them on the table.

Grimoire: I've been very lucky they gave me a lot of info on my family in catching me up. If the Great Tree of Possibilities that Atrus taught me is true, and Gehn's theory of Age creation is wrong... Then maybe... I... Could meet my family, if just another version of them. Hopefully this doesn't break the World.

Grimoire dipped his pen in the inkwell and began to write in the Kuroshiro book, began to use The Art.

In the World of Kuroshiro, there is yet a third side to it. One that is a balance of the Light of Sekai and Darkness of Makai, the Mu of Crystal. Located on the upper layer of the atmosphere of Kuroshiro lies the Land of the Sky. With the Makai invasion, the space travel from Sekai to the Sky was cut off. Thus the people living on the Sky layer were also cut off from Sekai. Ruled by the Crystal King Tack Angel, the land is governed by his many wives as some hold control of certain territories. With the only opposition being the vast sea of the Sky the Kingdom of Atlantis, ruled by the mermaids. The mermaids tend to self isolation away from the Crystal King's reach. Any conflict between people in the Land of the Sky is settled with grappled combat, much like that of below.

A clattering sound snapped Grimoire up from his Art, panicked he looked up to see the fluffy food in front of him.

Waitress: Here's your stack hun, sorry to scare you.

Grimoire: Uh... No problem. Can I actually take this with me to my room?

Waitress: To go?

Grimoire: Yes, t-to go.

Waitress: Sure thing, let me get you a doggie bag.

The waitress grabbed the plate and turned to the kitchen. Grimoire mouthed to himself "doggie bag?" She eventually returned with the styrofoam container and handed it to Grimoire. Grimoire gave thanks and walked out, slyly putting Kuroshiro back on the stack he had taken from before.

Kuroshiro Age - Crystal Heaven - Volunteer Ranch

The Angel property was abuzz with various Angel Wives running about as they were dealing with upkeep. The strong armed labor of pasteurizing and bottling the many gallons of Milk from the volunteered Crystal citizens was having a positive effect on the Angel Wives, sculpting their backs and arms and legs. A workout in and of itself. With the last batch in refrigeration for the day, the Angel Wives & Crystal citizens clocked out of their daily routine. A few Angel Wives were resting outside the pasteurization barn in the cool early evening breeze.

Merelda Angel: I never thought I'd be doing this much back breaking work...

Hibiki Angel: Think of it like a workout, Queeny! You're not only helping out the farm but bettering yourself as well.

Merelda Angel: Even as a Queen, I played mostly diplomat. Now after even just a few days, I'm outgrowing my old dresses.

Mei-Ling Angel: Dresses can be sewn and mended. But the improvement of your body is more important.

Merelda Angel: I'm just so used to what was normal for me. I can't believe I lost my territory to one of our sister-wives.

Lei-Lei Angel: But you feel better, right?

Merelda Angel: ...I guess? I think it'll just take time.

Suddenly a holographic screen popped up over the farm, in fact it appeared over all of the Crystal Heaven territories.

Hibiki Angel: Oh look! It's hubby!

It was in fact the Crystal King Tack Angel, clad in robes and his circlet.

Crystal King: Good evening Crystal Heaven! I hope you had a productive day in our glorious kingdom. I have come tonight with some news. I am opening up new land to be claimed by an Angel wife, however the land is in dispute with the Atlantis Kingdom. In agreement with normally adverse Queen Undine of Atlantis, we've decided on a tournament between our Kingdoms. 8 Angel Wives vs 8 Atlantis Heralds. Sign ups will be open now and will be chosen at random, no wife currently holding territory may enter. That is all, good luck.

Hibiki Angel: Thanks hubby! So are any of you entering?

Lei-Lei Angel: And you're not?

Hibiki Angel: Nah, working here on the Ranch feels more natural to me. I don't want territory. You?

Lei-Lei looked at her sister Mei-Ling as she shook her head.

Lei-Lei Angel: Nah, we uh... Got other plans. Merelda?

Merelda Angel: I don't know, I'm still kinda shook from last time.

Lei-Lei and Hibiki comforted Merelda as Mei-Ling tapped on her phone.

Mei-Ling Angel: Well, too late my dear Sister-Wife. You're entered.

Merelda Angel: What?!

Mei-Ling Angel: I signed you up, you just need a push my dear. I know Tack would approve the initiative.

Merelda began to panic as Lei-Lei laughed and Hibiki & Mei-Ling argued.

Angel Ranch

Tack and Makoto held hands as they looked at the almost invisible portal ahead of them. Tack was shaking a bit but Makoto lifted his hand and held it to her cheek.

Makoto Angel: Keep calm sweetness.

Tack Angel: Do you think Remington was right? Do you think people will care about us?

Makoto Angel: I trust in our people and our sister-wives.

Tack Angel: Well, here we go I guess.

Tack and Makoto hand in hand walked forward through the portal.

Earth 5 - Crystal Heaven

Tack and Makoto stepped out of the portal and arrived at what was or is the Crystal Heaven Throne Room. As they stepped out they were greeted by an older but still busty Krjn.

Krjn: Welcome back your highnesses, we've been expecting you.

Tack Angel: Forgive me, I've been told it's been a decade since you saw us last?

Krjn: It has your highness, we along with the Princesses and other Queens have helped ratify your kingdom. Which now scours the entire planet.

Makoto Angel: Wait... Other Queens? You mean?

Krjn: Indeed, the souls inhabiting the Azuli clones arrived here and helped establish the various sister kingdoms.

Makoto Angel: So Bella? Daisy?

Tack Angel: Cee? Mrs. Pac-Angel?

Krjn: Indeed, all 100+ are here.

Tack Angel: Everyone is here...

Krjn: If you'd follow me, your people await.

Krjn lead Tack and Makoto out of the Throne Room and down the halls. Along the way they were greeted and joined by other Angel Wives. All giving heartwarming hellos and hugs. Krjn then led the royal family to a large covered balcony, with a massive amount of thrones. Each wife was led to their seats by other Viera, with Krjn leading Tack to the middle throne. Tack looked at all his loved ones with an overwhelming sense of emotion. Krjn then raised the curtain and threw a switch, extending the balcony out. The bright light and sounds overwhelmed the royal family as when things came into focus, they finally saw the grand amount of Crystal Heaven citizens, with holo-projectors of the other kingdoms on Earth 5.

Tack Angel: Oh wow...

The sound and visuals was overwhelming for Tack and the Wives. Krjn walked behind the thrones and spoke to Tack.

Krjn: They're waiting for a speech my King.

Tack Angel: Oh! I uh, I guess I should say something.

Tack rose from his throne and walked up to the crystal railing. With a microphone in front, Tack cleared his throat and tried to find his voice.

Tack Angel: My Crystal Shards!

The crowd erupted in cheers, Tack tried to calm them down by waving down.

Tack Angel: I'm sure you're all aware that for my wives and myself, that it's been only half a year since we last saw you. But for you, it's been 10 years.

The crowd cheered as confetti started to fall from the top of buildings.

Tack Angel: I am overjoyed to finally see all of you again, I see some of you have grown up and started your own families. I see our national sport is still going strong. And I even see the old Star Lanes is still here, hello Jorji!

Jorji Costava: Hello King!

The crowd laughed as their elder citizen waves with his family.

Tack Angel: I hope that we can drive this Earth to a new chapter in our lives. A life without war but with healthy competition. I hope though you would still accept me as King.

A loud unified yes echoed seemingly throughout the planet. Bringing the royal family to tears.

Tack Angel: I'm not worthy of you all, but I will strive to live up to your expectations.

The citizens cheered as Tack and the Wives waved. Tack was choked up with emotion and sat down. His hands started to shake but Makoto and Amy held both of his hands. He took a big sigh to release tension and squeezed both their hands in appreciation.

Earth 5 - ???

???: It seems the King has returned, it's time for us to enact our bid...
