Post by Spike Kane on Aug 4, 2023 10:14:12 GMT -5
The wind howls, as a newspaper flutters through the air, circling around the outside of an arena. Posters plastered across the walls and the posts around showcase XHF Network events.
Superstars who have made their legacy in the Network Era, such as Dylan Black, Bloodied Fox, El Rey, Florida Man, Jessie Jamester and many more, as well as those of the "old guard" such as The BANG! Bros; Steve Awesome, El Combatiente, Curtis Kanyon, and Spike Kane- who's face has been scratched out - PRICE, Venom, Nelly Angel, and more.
There is a flash of lightnight as the newspaper slaps across the etched out face of Spike Kane.
"Fuck."
The newspaper speaks....
"Close....but not close enough...."
And we fade.

2 Days Later.
Inside the arena, it's all but empty. The echoes of utility staff going about their business echoes through the halls. The camera slowly pans through the corridor, revealing posters of famous wrestling bears, noticeably Goldbear, and Goldbear II, as well as Kuroi I suppose. A janitor is mopping the floor nearby with his headphones on, as a splash can be heard from the bucket.
The camera approaches the bucket, and inside floats a sponge.
"God dammit!"
The sponge speaks...
"For fuck sake"
The sponge aggressively floats.
And we fade.

1 Day Later.
Inside the same arena, near the loading dock, again it is mostly empty, only one or two trucks are around.
There's a load CLANG just off camera, before a tyre comes rolling through.
"FUUUUUuuuuuuuUUUCCCccccKKKK!"
The tyre screams as it rolls through the scene.
And we fade.

3 Days Later.
The arena staff are busy at work once again, this time we follow the same janitor from a few days ago as he heads through the corridors and into the staff room. As he enters the noise builds, as several staff are busy enjoying their breaks, or maybe even slacking off - who knows? Who cares? We most certainly don't, Magnus and JFK might, but we don't.
The Janitor heads to the fridge and pulls out a microwave burger, popping it into the microwave and setting the timer.
Janitor: Is that one new?
Cleaner: I guess? Wasn't there yesterday.
Janitor: Weird...
DING! The microwave dings, and the door automatically pops open to reveal a "freshly" cooked microwave burger. The Janitor picks it up, and takes it away to his seat, but the camera stays on the microwave.
Microwave: *snort* suck it Mongo.
And we fade.

2 Days Later.
We open up on a small office, it is very dirty, very dimly lit, and looks like it hasn't been used for a very long time. Inside the office, as we slowly pan down past posters for "Night of Champions V" and "The XHF Swimsuit Edition" featuring Congo the Destroyer on the cover, to a dirty box labelled "Lost and Found" inside the box, at the very top of the pile is what can only be described as a shitpiss stained jock-strap, sewn into it is a label reading "Property of Steve Awesome."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Screams the Jock Strap, in absolute terror.

1 Week Later.
We open on the small off-
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
-still screams the Jock Strap.
---
1 Week Later.
The office, but this time outside. We focus on the door, which suddenly bursts open from the inside almost shattering the door in the process.
Finally, at long last Spike Kane emerges from the tiny office, the jock strap on his head. He rips it off and throws it against the wall in utter rage.
"....I'm going to kill everyone."
With that, he starts storming down the corridor, as Spike Kane has finally returned.
