Live from Alamodome, San Antonio, Texas. With Randy White and John Cartwright at Ringside.

Opening

Emily: Welcome everyone to Lethal Lottery IV: Killing Time...

Before she can even finish, the lights in the arena start to dim, suddenly "IT IS NOT A F*CKIN GAME" comes blaring out of the P.A. system. The fans erupt as they realize that the man known as Triple X is about to enter the arena. As "X Gon' Give it To Ya!!!" hits the P.A. system, Damion Xavier makes his way from the back, he's wearing a black leather trench, and is sporting a clean shaved head. As he makes his way down to ring side, pyro in the form of a red X shoots off behind him.

Jake: Well it appears that the Baddest Man on the Planet has made his return to the SFT, and he is sporting a whole new look.

Emily: Oh god don't tell me that Triple X is now going to a "dark" gimmick?

As Triple X reaches the ring, walks over to the ring steps, uses them to reach the apron, enters the ring thru the middle ropes, and then walks over to the center of the ring. He then looks out at the crowd, raises his arms in the air, and as he crosses them, once again red pyro in the form of an X shots off behind him. He then lowers his arm, walks over to the ring announcer, who hands him a microphone, he then walks back to the center of the ring. As he looks out over the crowd, who have broke out in a "Triple X" chant, he cracks a slight smile, as he waits for them to quiet down, he then raise the microphone and begins to address the crowd.

Triple X: Before I came out here, I was thinking that maybe me returning to the ring was a huge mistake.

The crowd reacts to his comments with a loud chorus of "Noooooo", Triple X smiles once again, as he continues on.

Triple X: But once I came thru that curtain and I seen and heard the ovation you gave me, it was at the point that I knew that me coming back...WAS THE BEST DECISION I COULD HAVE EVER MADE!!!

Once again the crowd erupts, once they die down he continues on.

Triple X: Now I didn't come out here to give some long drawn out speech on how I'm going to change the SFT, in fact this is going to be very short and very simple. You see I've come back for three reasons. Number 1, to capture the one title that has eluded me my entire career in the SFT, and that is the Intercontinental title. Reason number 2, to once again become the SFT World Heavyweight Champion. And number 3, witness and participate in the rebirth of the greatest stable in the history of the Strike Fantasy Towers...THE FOUNDATION!!!

He pause for a moment as the fans react to comments, he then raises microphone and continues on.

Triple X: So Folks Triple X is officially back in the SFT, and things may never be the same, but the one thing is for sure, in fact the one that thing that will never change...

Triple X and the Crowd: IT IS NOT A F*CKIN GAME!!!

As "X Gon' Give it To Ya!!!" hits the P.A. system, Triple X drops the microphone, climbs out of the ring and starts to make his way to the back

A New Wave Of Exellece Is Ready To Begin~ (There is no music heard at all, all we see is static and the words can be heard. But at the end of each word there is a slight static noise to it.)

~ Greatness Has Met Its Match ~ (Still no music, and the static stays on the screen, but as the words are heard they come through the static. The words are red and blood drips from them, as each drip of blood drips off a noise can be heard as if it has fallen down a well.)

~ Business In Strike Fantasy Towers Is About To Pick Up ~ (There is a slight whisper and then the words are muttered, but as this happens the static explodes and we can see gold melting in the background and through this gold we see the words in black.)

~ All History Is About To Be Wiped, New History Is About To Be Written ~ (The camera nows moves and we see the gold lying on a floor. The gold now looks as though it has something written on it and these words are then heard. The voice it is in, is of desperation. The voice has static to it again, but this time along with the desperation and the static we hear a scream.)

~ God Has Sent, Divine Intervention Into Strike Fantasy Towers, To Change The Rules ~ (Letters begin bouncing around the screen and we then can hear a voice as if it is spoken inside a huge empty room. The letters stop bouncing around the screen and fall into place and we see the words on the screen. The background is of white clouds, but with a hint of red horns.)

~ Coming To Strike Fantasy Towers In August ~ (This time we see the Tag Team Championship, The Television Championship, The United Stated Championship and the Intercontinental Championship all side by side. Then all the titles move towards the center and the Strike Fantasy Towers World Heavyweight Title is seen)

~ Divine Intervention, Only God Can Stop Our Greatness ~ (The World title now has D.I painted onto the gold part of the title. The World title then explodes and we see four shadowed figures, then static cuts in to the feed, it keeps cutting back and forth between the shadowed figures and the static then a life support machines beeping can be heard and then with the last beep the scene cuts out and all you hear is the noise as if someone had just died.)

Match Number Two
Kaeneisvs. Robin Gallant
( #1 for IC Title )

Emily: Let's get on with our next match, Kaeneis versus Robin Gallant.

Chimpo: Weighing in at 346lbs; and coming from Tyneside, UK.... Kaeneis!!!

"The arena plunges into darkness, and several seconds pass. A lone, white spotlight illuminates an empty ring, whilst all others remain off. The entrance video begins to play, and My Immortal begins. Kaeneis emerges, unlit. He stands at the ramp top for several more seconds, before slowly beginning his walk down to the ring. The single spotlight continues to light the ring. When the overdrive guitar, marking the beginning of the song bridge kicks in, pyro detonates white flashes on all four turnbuckles, and normal lighting resumes. Kaeneis enters over the top rope and waits for his opponent."

Chimpo: Weighing in at 222lbs, and coming from East Ruthersford, New Jersey... Robin Gallant!!!

""War Machine" by KISS blares across the loudspeakers and the crowd begins to cheer. Haze machines create a cloud of "smoke" all across the entryway and strobe lights blink from all over the stage and down the ramp. Robin Gallant walks out in an intensely focused manner. He calmly but quickly walks down the aisle and slides into the ring. In the ring, he then climbs to the second rope and tries to pump up the crowd. Robin than gets back to the mat and looks at Kaeneis."

Emily: Here we go folks, the match is about to start.

"Hendrix calls for the bell to start the match. Once the bell rings; Kaeneis and Robin Gallant lock-up for the start of the match. Kaeneis puts in all of his strengh and pushes Robin to the ground. Robin just sits there looking angry and gets back up. Kaeneis and Robin locks up once again, but this time Robin knees Kaeneis in the stomach and does a quick DDT; taking Kaeneis to the ground and out a little. Robin gets up and runs to climb the turnbuckles. Once on top of the ropes; Robin lifts off and lands a diving elbow drop on the chest of the fallen Kaeneis. Robin than goes for the quick pin, but only gets a one. Robin gets up along with Kaeneis by the hair and throws him into the corner. Robin runs right after Kaeneis as he leans in the corner and attempts a flying bodysplash; but Kaeneis moves out of the way just in time. Robin bounces off the turnbuckles and hits Kaeneis right in the back. Both men fall to the ground, but Kaeneis is the first one to get up."

Jake: Wohoo, what are the odds of that happening..

"Kaeneis picks Robin up and puts him into a Cradle Suplex."

Emily: Nice job on Kaeneis part.

Jake: Looks like Kaeneis is getting back into the game.

"Kaeneis gets up quickly and drags Robin to the middle of the ring; Kaeneis than puts Robin into a Boston Crab. The weight of Kaeneis is making it even worse for Robin to not tap out; but Robin sticks in there for awhile. Kaeneis gets bored and lets go of the Boston Crab. Robin holds his back as Kaeneis gets up all the way."

Emily: Kaeneis sure does use his weight to his advantage.

"Robin gets to his knees, but Kaeneis is there to grab him by the hair and throw Robin against the ropes. Kaeneis lifts his foot up and attempts to knock Robin back to the ground, but Robin dodges Kaeneis big foot and bounces off the opposite side of the ropes and comes back to nail Kaeneis in the back of the head with a flying elbow. That brings Kaeneis to one knee..."

Jake: It's going to take more than that to take Kaeneis down..

"Robin gets angry and runs back to the ropes and back to the kneed Kaeneis; Robin connects with another flying elbow to the back of the head of Kaeneis. Kaeneis goes to both knees now, while Robin turns red and than puts the kneeling Kaeneis into a headlock. Robin's arms wrap around Kaeneis necks nicely, but it doesn't affect Kaeneis that much. Kaeneis gets up along with Robin still holding on. Kaeneis than grabs Robins arms and flips Robin over to the ground. Kaeneis than does a Legdrop right on Robins neck.."

Jake: HOLY SHIT! Did that kill Robin Gallant?!

"Kaeneis goes for the pin...

1... 2...

KICKOUT!

Emily: How the hell did Robin kick out of that?

Jake: I don't know, but if a 346lb man jumped on me...

"Kaeneis picks Robin up and throws him to the corner turnbuckles, Kaeneis than runs and does a flying bodysplash right on Robin Gallant."

Emily: OUCH!

"Robin wobbles to the ground, but Kaeneis picks Robin back up and grabs Robin by the neck; Kaeneis than looks at the crowd and than lifts Robin up and puts him into The Rememberance Drop! The ring shakes as Robin hits the ground, Kaeneis goes for the pin...

1...

2..

3...!!

Emily: Kaeneis did it! He won!

Jake: Better watch out whoever is the IC champion..

Winner: Kaeneis via Pinfall

backstage, Shadow is seen walking towards his office. His footsteps echo through the hall as he stops for a moment.*

Shadow: What the...

*He walks fowards a bit, and notices drops of blood on the floor. He continues following the drips, till they lead him to a large metal trash can. As he peeks in he sees a bloody GWL shirt!"

*after a second he hangs up and dials in another number, Nathan Gust's."

Shadow: Nathan? Theres a...

Phone: No worries, Shad. I'm going to make you proud. In Dead Pac fashion.

Suddenly the pnone cuts off, Shadow tries to call back but Gust never answers.

Match Number Three
Havoc vs. Exterminator
( TV Title Match )

Phil: This sure is going to be a super match.

Steve: I doubt it. Nobody's seen or heard from Exterminator in days. Some believe he's not even here.

Phil: No matter. Havoc could wrestle himself and entertain the masses.

The arena goes dark and many prayers are said in low voices in Latin simultaneously. Suddenly, there is an explosion of fire as "O Fortuna" begins playing. Havoc steps out onto the ramp and moves his head to see all the fans and savor their boos. He slowly walks to the ring and slides in. He hops onto one turnbuckle and leans forward with his arms at his side. He then steps down and throws his TV Title at Referee Jennifer Peritz.

Steve: He doesn't seem to like that title. I don't blame him.

Havoc awaits in his corner for his opponent's entrance. "Highway To Hell" by AC/DC starts up and the fans give little reaction. It's close to a minute in time before Exterminator walks out.

Phil: He's here! Hooray!

Exterminator tries to get a reaction from the fans, but he gets nothing. Very frustrated, Exterminator runs down the ramp and he slides into the ring. Exterminator glances at the TV Title and he smiles. He then charges at Havoc's corner, but Havoc moves out of the way... sending his opponent head first into the turnbuckle. The opening bell sounds and the championship match is underway! Exterminator angrily swings around with a forearm, but it's caught by Havoc. Havoc sends Exterminator into the ropes. One his way back, Havoc delivers an impressive sit-out spinebuster to Exterminator.

Steve: Nice execution.

Havoc goes for the cover but he gets up after the one count.

Phil: I think that he just wants to punish Exterminator.

Steve: Sounds good to me.

The two men lock up in a test of strength. Exterminator wins it after head-butting Havoc. Exterminator then knees his adversary in the gut and sets him up for a powerbomb. While up in the air, Havoc punches Exterminator directly between the eyes, sending both men to the canvas. Havoc is the first to get up... with assistance from the ropes. He climbs to the top turnbuckle and stalks as Exterminator gets to his feet. Havoc dives off with a flying clothesline to the back of Exterminator's head.

Phil: He's pulling out all the stops in this title defense.

Steve: And the champ goes for the cover!

1... 2... NO!

Phil: Exterminator kicked out. Havoc's gotta be pissed!

Havoc is indeed unhappy. He gets up and brings his opponent up as well. Havoc lifts Exterminator up in a fireman's carry position. Instead of dropping him, Havoc turns around in circles a few times before dropping Exterminator with a neckbreaker.

Steve: That looked like an airplane spin version of his "Chaos Drop"!

Phil: This could be it!

1... 2... 3!

The bell sounds and "O Fortuna" starts up again. Havoc gets up and raises his arms in victory. He goes to leave without the title, but the referee makes sure he leaves with it. He just shakes his head and throws the belt over his shoulder as he walks up the ramp.

Winner: Havoc by pinfall

- Segment -

Havoc holds the Television Title in his hand and grabs a mic.

"Since I won this belt I have been scoffed at and spit on. How naive I was to think that any gold would bring me any respect. And to my chagrin, my inferiors are fighting for chances at the higher titles while I am stuck in this abysmal hell called the Television Title division. Well simply .it's over. I should be competing at a higher level and I will be. Tonight I relinquish the Television title."

Havoc drops the title and the mic on the ground and walks to the back.

Match Number Four
Nirvana vs. Gunz
( US Title Match )

The arena goes black, but suddenly turns lime green as Jeff King comes out from the curtain dragging Cookie behind him on a leash. The crowd boos and throws trash, but King uses cookie for a human shield getting most of the trash on her. As they enter the ring, King motions back stage and a small cage is lowered into the ring, he locks Cookie in the cage and awaits Gunz.

A spotlight shines down onto the curtains as the lights go out. ‘Resurrected in a bad way’ is sad in that ominous, chilling voice as always when “Don’t Cry Little Sister” by the Sisters of Murphy begins to play throughout the arena. Gunz steps out, frantic seeing his daughter hanging in a cage. He storms down to the ring and tries to get to the cage, but it is lifted too high before he can reach it. Instead he charges at King and tackles him to the ground.

The ref signals for the bell to be run but before that can be done the arena is flooded with blinding bright white light. The light fades again to show the ropes had been replaced with strips of barbwire. Outside of the ring are weapons of all sorts, but many have also been wrapped in barbwire. Most notably, there is a skip at the side of the ring, filled with barbed wire. There is confusion on everyone’s face, even that of referee Jenifer Peritz, but Nirvana and Gunz are pre-occupied with each others presence. With Cookie squirming, whimpering, both men blame the other for what she is now.

Moments that feel like an eternity passes as the two men stare at each other. So much suspense between them the atmosphere in the arena is unbearable for everyone. Then with no provocation, the two men charge, tackling each other again and dropping to the ground, punching and tearing like crazed animals. It is Nirvana who gains the upper hand after much rolling about, ending up on top. He gouges at Gunz eyes and leaps up onto his feet, clearing himself from Gunz’ sweeping reach. Holding his eyes as he gets up, the challenger gets to his feet only to be kicked in the back from a precise kick from King. Gunz arches his back in pain, before being brought down hard onto the mat with a spinning heel kick, hitting Gunz in the face.

The fans boo as Nirvana gets to his feet, stepping around waiting for Gunz to get back onto his feet. Gunz however, waits for Nirvana to come back to him before throwing a fist straight into Nirvana’s face. A small, slow flow of blood trickles from his nose. Gunz gets up into a squatting position and drives himself into Nirvana with a spear, drilling him into the mat. Immediately Gunz starts choking out Nirvana, digging his thumbs into his windpipe. Jenifer literally throws the challenger to break them up.

Steve: Gunz is going to kill Nirvana, isn’t he?

Phil: Mmmmhmmm. Not very considerate… T’won’t be much help to Cookie dead.

Steve: But… he’d have Cookie. That’s the whole point!

Gunz gets up as does King gently rubbing his own sore throat. Gunz charges again, rage still in his blood… caring not for wrestling, but for destroying Nirvana. The US champion however, sidesteps and throws a vicious kick into Gunz jaw. Nirvana drags his opponent onto his feet again and lifts him up for a body slam, but Gunz drops behind him over his shoulder and pushes him forward towards the barbwire. Nirvana drops down to the ground deliberately before he runs into it, sliding along the mat. But he jumps back onto his feet and when Gunz tries to regain dominance, moving fast towards him once again, Nirvana uses his own momentum, lifting Gunz over his head, holding him there before dropping him down over the barbwire with a gorilla press!

Steve: Jesus! Fuck, Gunz must be shredded up badly!

Indeed, when Gunz falls to the outside of the ring, small cuts can be seen all around the front of his abdomen. Nirvana slides out after him, standing over Gunz while momentarily looking up to Cookie. Gunz throws a punch into the champs groin and trips him up face first onto a wooden chair wrapped completely in barbwire! Nirvana throws himself away from the chair, writhing in pain and holding his bloody face. Gunz staggers up and ignoring the pain, he grabs the chair, lifting it over his head and dropping it down onto Nirvana. A small cry can be heard from Cookie making Gunz wince, but he ignores it for now… deciding to grab a steel chair and slide it into the ring. He goes in after it, leaving Nirvana outside with thousands of barbs acting like hooks into his attire and skin. Inside the ring, Gunz is shouting at the ref to count him out. The ref shakes her head but counts anyway…

1…2…3… Nirvana hears the counting and tries to free himself from the chair… 4…5…6… The barbwire won’t shift and the pain is great, too painful to manipulate it… 7… Nirvana stops struggling and with one huge combined push from all his limbs, the chair moves away, ripping flesh and attire but then he’s free… 8…9… Nirvana gets himself to his feet and rolls into the ring under the bottom rope.

He appears to be in a great deal of pain from the cuts as he gets to his feet again, but also blocks out Gunz, trying to gain his breath, while leaning against the turnbuckle with his back to his opponent. Gunz isn’t initially too bothered, tending to his own wounds, but seeing the chance to dominate, he puts himself into a squatting position again and charges forward. With huge force, Gunz delivers the ‘Full Clip’, sandwiching Nirvana between himself and the turnbuckle! The challenger throws Nirvana onto his back and goes for the first pin.

1…2… Nirvana got his hand on the barbwire! Rope break!

Gunz gets up and stomps on Nirvana and then he walks off to grab the steel chair he had previously brought in. He lifts it up but somehow Nirvana has already got up and as Gunz turns round, the US champ kicks the chair into his head. Gunz doesn’t fall, but he is left dazed and drops the chair. Nirvana with a second wind takes a few steps back until he is against the barbwire ropes and then runs forward, jumping up as he nears Gunz and hitting a massive running DDT to Gunz onto the chair!

Phil: Holy fuck!

Steve: Very holy fuck! I can believe how this match is turning up. Who even decided it would be a barbwire match?!

Phil: Yeah, and you know, that barbwire may not make big cuts, but they’re deep… both of these men would have already lost a fair amount of blood and it must be hurting like hell.

Both men are down, exhausted and in pain with their wounds. It’s Nirvana who shows the first signs of life, crawling to the turnbuckle to get up. Gunz is still down. Slowly, but gradually gaining speed, Nirvana runs out and jumps, hitting a leg drop onto the back of Gunz’ neck while he still lies over the chair. Nirvana crawls around and rolls Gunz over, then goes for a pin.

1…2… Gunz somehow managed to kick out!

Nirvana is angry with himself for not winning and rolls onto his back. Jenifer doesn’t bother with a count out, but both men are down for some time. It’s Gunz who’s back up for, quite refreshed. Nirvana, having been waiting, gets right back up now. They both stand observing one another, the momentum they had between each other now diminished. Gunz, remembering the purpose of the match and what the man in front of him did to his daughter, storms forward, this time Nirvana isn’t quick enough to react and so both of them go over the top rope as Gunz hits a clothesline from hell on Nirvana, nearly knocking him out, but as they drop, their skin and clothes snag on the barb wire and they become caught up on it, looking like two flies on a web. Both try their best to free themselves.

Phil: This is some brutal viewing.

Nirvana eventually falls off and lands on the apron. He gets up, holding on to a safe part of the barbwire and kicks Gunz until he too falls down, landing hard on the apron. One of the barbs really creates a nasty long gash down Gunz left pectoral… It bleeds heavily. Nirvana brings Gunz up onto his feet and smacks him across the face.

Steve: This looks precarious… That skip full of barb wire hardly a metre away from them!

Nirvana goes for a judo toss to the outside, but before he can even move in to hit it, Gunz wraps both his hands around Nirvana’s throat and jumps off with him, hitting a two handed chokeslam… into the skip of barbwire!!

Phil: SWEET JESUS!

Minutes pass and there’s no stirring, but then, both men at exactly the same time crawl out, their bodies looking like the weapons around the ring, covered in barbwire. They fall to the floor and crawl around, trying to get to their feet. Gunz grabs a bat while Nirvana rolls back into the ring. Gunz comes back in too from the opposite side of the ring.

Steve: If Jenifer has any sense, she’ll take that weapon off Gunz now before he get a chance to use it.

Phil: Naw… This is fun.

Gunz creeps up to Nirvana and smacks him over the back before he even gets a chance to respond, but then he drops it down to lift him up. It appears that he goes for the Deadman’s gun, but Nirvana blocks the move and pushes him back, hitting him with a pump kick that sends him to the mat. The move knocks Gunz out, or so it would seem as he lies there motionless. Nirvana looks at the bat and pulls off the loose barbwire, holding it out in front of him. He makes sure Cookie can see him as he pushes his hand through it so his entire forearm is covered in the barbwire.

Phil: That must be agony…

Steve: For any normal man, yes…

Then he ascends the turnbuckle, briefly waving to Cookie before leaping up and dropping a forearm covered in barbwire over Gunz face. Both men feel the move, but driven on adrenaline, Nirvana mounts Gunz and begins rubbing the barbwire over his face, scraping down to the bone. The referee has had enough though and tells him get off. She slowly removes the barbwire on his arm and tosses it out to the side.

Steve: That’s disgusting.

King smirks and goes for a pin.

1…2… Kickout!

Phil: How did he kick out!?

Nirvana stands up and kicks Gunz in the head before walking around and locking in the Devillock in the center of the ring. It takes some time, but eventually an unreactive Gunz taps out, defeated having had no other choice, being what feels like miles away from the ropes.


Winner: Nirvana

After the match, King grabs a microphone and begins to speak.

King: Good my dear Gunz, very good. So heres the deal. forever Gunz. FOREVER. AS I understand, you can't die. So I'm going to give you the key to that cage, BUT...you’ll stay a Holocaust member forever and you stay in Philipsburgh protecting Paul.

With a laugh, King tosses the key at Gunz as the camera fades backstage.

Main Event
Seth Drydenvs. Johnny Legend
( World Title Match)

Harvey Vaughn: Ladies and Gentlemen. It is now time for the first main event, and it is for....THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP.

"Kool Thing" by Sonic Youth plays over the speakers as the arena turns darkred,

HV: About to come down the aisle....from Warren, MI. Weighing in at 230 pounds....JOHNNY LEGEND!!!

Legend than makes his way down to the ring.

HV: And his opponent.....

Smoke billows out from the entrance ramp, and "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" by Big and Rich hits, lights flashing everywhere.

HV: About to come down the aisle, rom New York City, New York, weighing in at 185 pounds.....SETH DRYDEN!!!!!!!

Seth Dryden walks down the aisle, winking and clapping hands with fans. He takes a drag from his cigarette, and he removes his sunglasses, and his World Title from his shoulder. He slides in, and he winks at his opponent.

JC: Seth and Legend are in the ring and getting their instructions from Chris White.

RW: It's going to be an easy night for Legend. The title's as good as his.

Chris White gives the men their instructions and then holds up the World Title. He hands it to the time keeper and signals for the ringing of the bell. The match starts and Legend and Seth circle around the ring, neither man taking their eyes off the other. They stop circling and slowly come to the center of the ring. They lock up, and neither man gets an advantage. Seth locks in a headlock, and grinds on it. Legend pushes Seth back into the ropes and whips Seth off. On the rebound Seth hits a shoulder block, but Legend doesn't fall. Legend shakes off the impact and tells Seth to do it again. Seth hits the ropes and hits another shoulder block, but Legend again doesn't move. Seth looks around, and runs to the ropes again,this time springboarding off the 2nd rope. Legend runs towards the ropes, under the flying Seth. Seth lands on his feet, and Legend goes for a clothesline off the rebound of the ropes. Seth ducks the clothesline, and as Legend turns around to face Seth, Seth hits a dropkick. Legend goes down and rolls out of the ring.

RW: What an exchange of moves right there.

JC: We're in for something special tonight folks.

Legend hops up onto the apron. Seth walks over and Legend tells White to keep Seth away.Legend gets back into the ring. Legend and Seth lock up again and Legend hooks in a headlock and then takes Seth down in the headlock. Legend grinds in on it. Seth then rolls Legend over, and Legend's shoulders are on the mat.

1.... 2....

Legend kicks out, rolling back over, with his headlock still hooked in. Now Seth's shoulders are down, but there's only a 1 count.

RW: Look at Seth, he's going to get beat by a headlock of all things.

JC: He's not out yet!

After a minute or 2 Seth begins to fight out of the headlock, standing with Legend. Seth hits an elbow to Legend's gut. And another. And another. Legend lets go of the headlock and Seth tries to run the ropes, but Legend grabs Seth by his hair and yanks him down. Seth holds the back of his head. Legend picks up Seth and hits a backbreaker. Legend then hooks in a bow and arrow and Seth yells out in pain. After a minute of that Legend lets go of the move and picks up Seth. Legend hooks Seth for a suplex and lifts him up. Legend holds him up there for a few seconds, and then hits the Orange Bomb. White goes down and counts.

1... 2.....

Seth barely kicks out Legend gets a look of frustration. He gets up and picks up Seth and whips him to the ropes. Legend goes for a clothesline, but Seth ducks it, and floats over Legend and hits a DDT. Both men lay on the mat.

JC: OH MY. Seth with the quick float over DDT, but he doesn't have enough to pin Legend.

RW: There's no way Legend would have stayed down if he pinned him!

Seth starts to get up, along with Legend. They stumble to the center of the ring. Legend punches Seth. Seth rocks back, and then punches Legend. Legend stumbles back, and then punches Seth. Seth stumbles back against the ropes, and rebounds with a haymaker. Legend stumbles back and bounces off the ropes, he goes for a punch but Seth hits a superkick before Legend can connect. Legend stumbles back again, and Seth follows. Seth starts hitting left and right hooks on Legend as he's stuck against the ropes. Seth whips Legend to the ropes and hits a back body drop. Seth picks Legend up and whips him to the corner. Seth follows in with a knee to the face, and starts punching the hell out of Legend. Seth backs up and goes for a clothesline, but Legend ducks behind and hits a half-nelson suplex. Both men lay on the mat.

JC: MY GOD. I think it's over for Seth.

RW: HA, IT'S OVER, LEGEND HAS IT IF HE CAN PIN HIM!!!

Legend crawls over to Seth, who is laying near the center of the ring, face up. Legend lays an arm over Seth.

1... 2....

KICKOUT!!!

JC: WHAT??

RW: OH MY GOD NOOO!!!

Legend raises his head and looks around in disbelief. Legend stands up, his knees wobbly, and signals that it's over. Legend picks up Seth and sets him up for Legendary. Legend goes for it, but Seth rolls out of it, and lands on his feet. Legend shakes his head in amazment, while Seth stumbles back and bounces off the ropes. Seth picks up major speed, and as Legend goes to grab Seth, Seth hits The Big Time. Seth follows through with it and lands a couple feet away from Legend. Legend spazzes on the mat holding his stomach. Seth crawls over and lays on top of Legend.

1... 2.... 3.....

HV: HERE IS YOUR WINNER, AND STILL WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, SETH DRYDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Winner: Seth Dryden

Frantic, Shadow hustles through the halls of the building, looking for a staff member...any staff member. His search has bore no fruit, however, adding an exclamation point to his frustrations. Shadow stops to punch the wall in his anger, muttering to himself audibly.

Shadow: *To himself, mostly* Dammit! When I find out where they are, heads will roll. Arms, legs, hands, and innards, too...but that's something to worry about later.

Sighing, he continues down the hallway, bound and determined to find that which he least wants to.

JC: Fox and Cage vs. Joe Mokoko and Radiant!

Harvey Vaughn: Ladies and Gentleman, It is time for our main event!

"Steel Avengers" by Metalium hits the P.A. system and the arena grows dark. The camera pans around the arena and then focuses in on the ramp to see a man sitting high on the StrikeTron. The camera zooms in to see the man is Joe Mokoko. He suddenly looks to the camera and stands up. He leaps off and lands on the hard floor in a crouching position, head bowed. Joe looks up and with blinding speed runs toward the ring and slides in. He jumps on top of the turnbuckle and just stares at the crowd...

Harvey Vaughn: The following match is scheduled for one fall, and is the final tag-team match for the Lethal Lottery! Introducing first, hailing from Chicago, Illinois. Weighing in at 220 lbs. He is the SFT Intercontinental Champion... "Krimson Dragon" Joe Mokoko!

Joe stands in the ring and starts to stretch. All of a sudden, "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin plays on the PA system. Radiant appears on the staging. He stands on the ramp and takes it all in. He then walks slowly down the ramp and gets in the ring. He gets on the ropes and taunts the crowd. He steps down and looks at Joe Mokoko.

Harvey Vaughn: And his partner, from Royal Oak, Michigan, weighing in at 203 lbs... Radiant!

RW: There is one team. Joe Mokoko and Radiant, perhaps the fan's favorite in this match.

The lights dim and the traditional "Franchise Players" logo fades in on the striketron. It holds for a minute, then fades to black and "Moment of Clarity" by Jay Z then hits the speakers. Cage soon follows, slowly and methodically, his eyes focused on Mokoko and Radiant with pent up hellfire and rage burning through his soul. He stands outside the ring and waits for Fox.

Harvey Vaughn: And their opponents. Introducing first, from San Diego, CA, weighing in at 284 lbs... Cage!

The arena darkens and you hear children say "Can you hear the voices?" throughout the arena. A mellow guitar begins to play to a slow beat and red lights slowly flash. Then "Last Serenade" begins to play and in a burst of pyro and light Fox appears at the entrance. He slowly makes his way to the ring. He and Cage stand outside the ring. They greet each other and share a few words.

Harvey Vaughn: and his partner. From Litchfield, CT. He is 265 lbs... Christopher Fox!

JC: All four men are here. I'm looking foreword to some good action!

RW: Yeah... you haven't gotten action in a while.

JC: Beg Pardon?

Cage and Fox slowly and cautiously enter the ring. The two teams stare each other down for a while. After a few moments of conversation between referee Chris White and the competitors. Joe Mokoko and Cage head to their respective corners as Fox and Radiant start off the match. The start to circle each other in the ring and the bell rings. DING DING DING. Both men continue to circle each-other and take their time. The crowd starts chanting for Radiant. They both lock up and push at each other. Fox gets the better half and pushes Radiant into a corner. Chris White orders Fox off him. He does, and then quickly chops Radiant. Radiant hunches over in pain and holds his chest. Fox straightens out Radiant and chops him again. Fox grabs a hold of Radiant and whips him to the turnbuckle on the other side of the ring, but Radiant reverses and whips Fox into the corner. Fox slams into the corner and Radiant immediately runs and rams his shoulder into Fox's stomach. Fox drops to his knees and Radiant backs up and surveys Fox. He backs up and gives a big kick to the temple of Fox.

JC: OUCH! Fox could be knocked out!

Radiant laughs at Fox and starts to taunt Cage. Cage starts to yell back and the two exchange some words. Fox starts to stir, and starts getting to his feet. As Fox comes to stand erect, Radiant is there to meet him with right hands. Radiant hits several sharp uppercuts, then goes for a jab. The shot is blocked, and Fox returns with a right hook of his own. Radiant staggers back, and Fox follows up with another shot. Chris White tells Fox to keep the hand open and not to close his fist when punching. Fox ignores him, and nails Radiant with another shot. Radiant reels back to the ropes and his arms get tied up in the top one slightly. Fox then backs off the ropes behind him and charges towards Radiant. Radiant sees him coming and has time to duck down. As Fox approaches him Radiant uses his left arm to back drop Fox over the top and to the outside. Fox grabs the top rope on the way down though, and pulls himself back onto the apron right behind Radiant. Radiant doesn't notice and he goes to run off the ropes, but Fox has a hand full of his hair, and he yanks Radiant back so that the back of his head is drilled into the mat. Radiant holds his head and neck in pain.

RW: Ooo, Fox displaying some athleticism.

JC: How is tugging on his hair athletic?

RW: Did you not see him grab on that rope?

Fox steps back into the ring and grabs Radiant by the head. He irish whips Radiant to his corner and Cage holds him still as Fox charges with a body splash. Just before Fox nails its, Cage lets his hold go, and after the move is executed Radiant staggers to the middle of the ring. Fox then walks up behind Radiant, and hooks him up with a Full Nelson, before driving him to the mat with a bulldog. Radiant hits the mat face first, then flops over onto his back as Fox releases the Full Nelson with perfect timing. Fox then pulls back on Radiant's leg and makes the cover.

Kick-out

RW: This one was almost over!

Fox shakes his head a little disappointed, and then tags in Cage. Cage runs into the ring just as Radiant is getting back up. He tries to take Radiant's head off with a vicious clothesline, but Radiant ducks and Cage runs right past him into a shot to the face from Mokoko leaning in over the top rope. Radiant walks over to his corner and grabs the top turnbuckle for leverage to stomp on Cage. Radiant then steps back and slaps Joe Mokoko across the chest. Joe Mokoko gets a pissed off look on his face and Radiant points to Cage. Joe Mokoko reluctantly steps in the ring, the whole time staring into the eyes of Radiant. Radiant slowly steps out, returning the glare to Mokoko.

JC: Some tension between these two.

RW: They better watch out, I wouldn't want that to get in the way of their match.

JC: These guys are professionals.

Mokoko picks Cage up by his head and slams him face first off the turnbuckle. Mokoko then turns Cage around and leans into his throat with a choke hold. Chris White orders Mokoko to get off of him. Mokoko releases the hold and throws a glance at Chris White. The ref back pedals and Mokoko turns back to Cage. He brings him to the center of the ring, and sets him up for a vertical suplex. He brings him up into the air, then at the last second drops Cage forward into a falling powerbomb.

RW: That was cool.

Mokoko then leans forward into the cover.

1......

2......

Kickout!

JC: That was a big innovative move, but it is still early in the match. Cage is still fresh.

Mokoko gets to his feet and looks over at Fox. Fox is slamming the top turnbuckle to try and motivate Cage to make a tag. Mokoko just laughs at Fox and he turns back to Cage... Only to be met with a roundhouse to the head! The sound of Cage's boot meeting Mokoko's flesh echoes throughout the arena and Mokoko is down.

JC: Nice kick by Cage!

RW: Was that the Shadow kick?

JC: Don't be foolish Randy.

Cage is psyching himself up now and he bounces off the ropes as Mokoko gets back to his feet. Mokoko turns to face Cage, and is greeted with an inside scissors kick to the torso. Mokoko goes down another time, but again tries to get back to his feet. As he staggers around, Cage grabs him by the arm and attempts to whip him to the ropes. Mokoko tries to reverse the whip, but Cage then twists his arm and somehow wrenches him into a hip toss. Cage begins to bounce around as if loosening up. He's shuffling back and forth as Mokoko gets to one knee and backs into the Fox and Cage's corner. Cage walks over to him, and delivers a vicious punch to the side of the head, followed by several quick forearms. Cage gets Mokoko and props him up on the turnbuckle. He sets him up and then gives him a huge superplex off the top-rope. Cage tags Fox back in now and they both stay in the ring. Mokoko crawls into one of the corners and tries to rest. They both place a foot on Mokoko's throat, and grab opposite sides of the top rope on opposite sides of the turnbuckle. Referee Chris White steps in again and breaks them up, and asks Cage to exit the ring. Before Cage can leave, Radiant is in the ring and he spins both Fox and Cage around. They clasp hands and try to double clothesline him, but he ducks. From his ducking position, he hops right onto the second turnbuckle with his feet nearly kicking the falling Joe Mokoko in the head, and he launches himself backwards as he spins in mid air and gives them both a flying cross body.

RW: Whoa! I didn't know Radiant could do that!

JC: Gotta give it to Radiant, that was pretty cool.

Radiant now walks over to Joe and drags him by his feet to their corner. He then props Mokoko in the corner and steps to the outside of the apron. Radiant the reaches over and slaps Mokoko's shoulder, tagging himself in.

JC: Ha-ha, Radiant is taking charge!

Radiant quickly steps back into the ring, and is almost met with a flying forearm from Fox, but he ducks and Fox splashes into Joe Mokoko then spins around so that both of them are in the corner. Radiant stands back up and looks at the two and laughs. Radiant then turns around and almost has his head taken off from a clothesline, but he jolts back at the last second and Cage connects with Fox!

RW: Ah! Cage accidentally hit Fox!

Radiant then spins Cage to stand in front of Fox, and nails him with a forearm to the face. Now all three men stand motionless in the corner and Radiant runs to the corner diagonal from them. Radiant charges towards them all and nails a spear so hard it sends Joe Mokoko from the back to the front flipping over them all. All four men hit the mat. Mokoko is out cold. Cage rolls to the outside. Radiant climbs back to his feet and looks down at Fox who is lined up perfectly with the turnbuckle for some aerial action. Radiant looks at Fox then the turnbuckle and the crowd cheers in anticipation of Radiant going for the finale.

JC: Looks like Radiant wants to end this!

Radiant climbs the top rope, looks around at the crowd, and then dives off with the Salt in a Wound!

JC: It's over!

Fox moves out of the way at the last second and Radiant comes crashing to the ground. Both men lay on the ground motionless for a few moments. Fox slowly crawls to Radiant and makes a pin.

..Chris White gets pulled out of the ring by Joe Mokoko! White looks at Mokoko and starts yelling at him. Cage runs at Mokoko from behind, Mokoko senses Cage and jumps up over him, Cage ducks down and accidentally spears Chris White!

JC: Oh no! Cage tackles the ref!

RW: He's going to cost his team the match!

Cage realizes what he did and he tries to revive the ref. Joe Mokoko goes to the timekeepers table and grabs a chair. He slides it into the ring next to Radiant. Radiant starts to get up. He stands up and bends over to pick up the chair. Fox sees this and immediately gives him a DDT on the chair!

RW: DDT on the steel chair!

Fox pins Radiant, but the referee is still knocked out on the side of the ring. Joe Mokoko slides in the ring and ax-handle smashes Fox. Fox starts to get up, but Mokoko keeps hammering down on Fox's back. Fox goes down and Mokoko grabs the chair and raises it in the air. Cage quickly gets up behind him and grabs the chair out of his hands. Mokoko turns around and Cage smacks him in the face with the chair!

RW: Mokoko got the chair, but so far it has done nothing but hurt his team!

Cage grabs Fox and drags him over Mokoko for a pin. But the ref still isn't up!

JC: We need a need a new ref out here!

Hendrix comes out from the back as a replacement referee. He slides into the ring and starts counting.

JC: Whoa: How did Mokoko kick out of a chairshot?

Hendrix manages to get Cage and Radiant out of the ring. We can see now that Mokoko is busted open. He starts to make some movements, but Fox is already up. Fox picks up Mokoko and starts punching his fore-head. Opening up the wound. Mokoko's mask is covering his face, but you can still see the blood coming over the mask. Fox reaches for the back of his mask and attempts to pull it off! Mokoko struggles with Fox. The mask becomes loose and comes halfway off. Mokoko quickly uppercuts between Fox's legs, and as Fox goes down, Mokoko slips his mask back on. He starts to make his way to Radiant's corner. He is about to make the tag, when Fox grabs his leg and pulls him back! Fox goes and tags in Cage.

RW: Wow! What a great match!

Winner: Cage and Fox

Cage and Fox start celebrating in the ring. It is short lived afetr they realize, that they will have to fight each other soon. They stare down each other. Shadow gets on the mic.

Shadow: Congradulations Cage and Fox on bieng the final team in the lethal lottery! Don't go far though. This is the Lethal Lottery PPV. The biggest event we have. I'll be damned if our final match isn't even the finals of the tounament!

Shadow: So what I am saying is. Instead of waiting a week to see you two in the finals, lets have it, right here, right now! Get a new ref down here and ring the bell!

Shadow exits the ring and a new ref comes down as Cage and Fox look stunned.

Main Event 3
Cagevs. Fox
( Lethal Lottery Final Match)

RW: Did you hear that?

JC: I sure did! What a surprise!

RW: The final match of the Lottery is about to happen!

JC: Both of these men are tired!

Fox and Cage are still in the ring. The start to stare each other down. Cage throws the first punch and backs Fox into the corner. Cage now has Fox in a corner and is holding his foot on Fox’s neck. The ref begins to count on the illegal choke. Cage steps off and continues to stay on top of Fox firing forearms into Fox’s face as he’s down in the corner. Cage throws eight total forearms at Fox and when he’s done Fox’s left eye is black and blue. Cage lifts Fox to his feet and begins to rake Fox’s eyes a crossed the ropes. Fox holds his eyes as Cage goes to whip Fox across the ring, but Fox reverses it and reverse monkey flips Cage on the bounce back. Fox gets up with momentum and as Cage stands up clotheslines Cage over the top rope.

RW: These men have no hesitation to go at it.

JC: This IS the match we all have been waiting for.

Fox starts to shout at the crowd as Cage stands up outside the ring. Cage slides back into the ring and Fox meets him with a boot to the chest as Cage starts to stand. He then gets down on Cage’ shoulders and begins firing forearms into Cage’ face just Like Cage did in the corner. Fox nails twelve forearms on the jaw of Cage before lifting him up onto his feet and snap suplexing Cage. Fox doesn’t let go of the suplex though as he lifts Cage up again into a front face plat suplex. Fox covers Cage and hooks his leg!

Kickout!

Fox isn’t really surprised as he locks Cage into a rear chin lock. He starts to pull back on Cage as Cage starts firing elbows into Fox’s gut. Finally Cage stands up with Fox still holding him and Cage reverses the hold with a drop forward neck crack as Fox’s chin bounces off of Cage’ shoulder. Cage gets up and so does Fox and Cage swings at Fox with a right. Fox blocks the right and counters with a right of his own. Fox begins to fire right after right into the face of Cage before finally bringing Cage up against the ropes. Fox then steps back and runs at Cage to which Cage reverses into a back drop over the ropes. Fox hits the mat covered floor and rolls back first into the metal crowd barrier. Cage slides out under the bottom rope and lifts Fox off the floor. He then whips Fox into the turnbuckle as Fox bounces head first off the metal pole with a sickening thud. Cage slowly bends down and lifts Fox to his feet as Fox has a “glazed over” look in his eyes. Cage tosses Fox into the ring and we notice a small cut over the black and blue left eye of Fox. Cage immediately uses this to his advantage as he rakes Fox’s eyes twice, trying to open the cut further. Cage then runs back into the ropes but as he charges at Fox, Fox drops down onto his back and Cage runs over him. Fox then grabs Cage’ legs, trips him up and rolls up onto Cage’ back into a boston crab hold. Cage is able to quickly get to the ropes and break the hold. As Cage starts to get up Fox fires a left into Cage’s jaw. He then sets up for a piledriver which is quickly reversed into a back drop by Cage. But Fox gets right back up from the back drop and clotheslines Cage as he turns around. Fox then starts to get the upper hand with two stomps followed by a running leg drop. Cage rolls out of the ring to safety for a quick breather. He then jumps up onto the ring apron where Fox starts to fire lefts into Cage’ face. But Cage turns the tables by grabing Fox’s head and jumping off the apron in a hang man.

JC: These two are going at it.

RW: Just ten minutes ago, these two were celebrating in the ring!

Cage then slowly walks over to the ring steps and walks up them then onto the top rope. Cage waits as Fox gets up and turns looking for Cage and is meet with a flying clothesline. Cage covers Fox!

Kickout!

Cage then walks around to Fox’s head and face stretches on Fox’s bad eye. He picks up Fox whose eye is now gushing with blood and piledrives Fox. Fox’s head bounces off the canvas as his neck is compressed on it. Cage then walks over to one of the turnbuckles and begins to take of the protective padding. He does this and sets up a slingshot that sends Fox head first into the exposed metal ring. Fox’s face bounces off of the ring and we can now notice that along with the cut above his eye, Fox’s forehead has been busted open. Fox staggers back after bouncing off the turnbuckle and Cage is read with a school boy roll up. The ref counts.

Kickout!

Cage can not believe it! He picks up Fox, and takes him into the corner. He sets Fox up in the corner and begins to fire forearms at Fox’s good eye. Suddenly though Fox spins Cage around so now he is in the corner and begins to throw forearms at Cage. He works Cage in the corner alternating between kicks, punches, and forearms. Fox’s face is now half covered in blood and half swollen from the recent forearms. But he still goes at Cage hip tossing him onto the canvas as he comes out of the corner.

RW: Fox’s showing some battle scars but it looks like he’s turning this one around.

JC: The question is will he be able to hold on to his current advantage.

Cage rolls off the hip toss and is quickly taken down with a spear from Fox. Fox is now like a man possessed as he starts firing rapid fire rights into Cage’s face. He takes Cage by the hair and drags him over to the exposed turnbuckle and begins to beat Cage’ face into it. Now we can see a light red drops fall from Cage's face as Fox continues to smash his face into the turnbuckle. Finally Fox stops and throws Cage over the top rope and onto the arena floor. Cage lays there motionless trying to regain his bearings after the fifteen plus times his face was smashed into the turnbuckle. Fox walks over to the ring steps and takes the top set. Fox takes the steps and lifts them up into the ring. Then he takes Cage over to the bottom set and DDTs Cage onto the bottom set. Fox now seems like he’s on a mission to destroy Cage as he walks over to a time keeper and takes a chair from him. He lifts ths chair up and brings it down on Cage’ head with a mighty thud. He then picks up the unconscious body of Cage and tosses it into the ring.

RW: Fox is using a chair!

JC: Why is Shadow allowing this.

RW: This is the year's biggest match, NO WAY is it going to end in DQ. Shadow is a smart man.

There he takes the ring steps and sets them on top of Cage’ head. He then brings the chair up and smashes it down hard on the steps. He then rolls the steps off of Cage’ and pins him!

Kickout!

JC: NO WAY!

RW: Looks like this march isn't about weopons, it's about heart.

JC: It’s almost as if Cage isn’t human, kicking out of the beating he has taken.

Fox seems like he’s gonna explode after Cage kicked out of the pin. He looks at Shadow but keeps his calm as he goes back to the task at hand. He lifts Cage’s semi-lifeless body and sets him up for the The Spiral but Cage reverses it by throwing Fox into the ropes. On the bounce back Cage connects with a clothsline. Cage then falls back into the ropes as he reaches up to his face. He pulls out his hand and it is covered in blood. Fox gets up as Cage walks over. Cage sets up Fox for a cradle piledriver and hits it. He covers Fox!

Kickout!

JC: Cage almost had it!

RW: These men are definatley tired, anytime now this match has to be over!

Cage starts to lift Fox up but suddenly Fox takes Cage down in the center of the ring! Fox quickly grabs Cage’s left leg and looking down on him. Fox spins around the left leg of Cage as if setting up for the Figure 4. He then grabs Cage’ right leg and brings it up underneath Cage’ twisted left leg. Instead of falling back and locking on the Figure 4, Fox steps over Cage’ twisted left leg now with his own left leg, then flips him over counterclockwise into a Sharpshooter position!

JC: Nice transition to a sharphooter!

Cage fights the urge to tap, as the blood continues to drip from his face. On the ring we see the red spot growing as Fox starts to scream. His own blood dripping down his body and collecting in a pool in the center of the ring. Cage slowly starts to crawl towards the ropes as Fox pulls him back into the center of the ring. Cage once again starts to pull himself towards the ropes, and again Fox pulls Cage back out into the center of the ring. Fox tries to tighten the hold as one last time Cage slides towards the ropes. Again Fox brings him back into the center of the ring. Cage is too weak now to try for the ropes again, but continues to try to keep from tapping. It’s now a race to see who can hold on longer. Cage’s blood is now a huge dark crimson puddle in the center of the ring and each drop just adds to it. Fox’s bleeding continues about as fast as Cage’s. Both men show signs of fatigue as the blood drains from them. The ref continues to ask Cage if he taps out but Cage continues to fight his temptation to tap out to the pain. Fox’s grip loosens with every drop of blood that hits the mat. Cage also is fading as Shadow continues to ask if he taps. Cage raises his body and every ounce of his strength and manages to somehow crawl to the ropes as Fox has a look of unbelief, Cage makes it to the ropes and passes out, Shadow makes Fox break the hold. Fox quickly turns around and nails Cage, but no response at all from Cage. Fox takes his arm off the ropes and slowly covers.

JC: My god! I thought Cage had died!

Fox slowly gets to his feet and picks up Cage. Cage slowly gets to his feet, but almost falls over. All of a sudden, he gets a burst of energy and nails Fox with the Uncaged! He used up all his energy, and both men lay on the ground. Cage slowly crawls to Fox and lays his arm over him. Shadow starts the count.

JC: Wow, I am so exited, I'm about to have a heart attack!

RW: Fox and Cage are both men on a mission!

Cage starts to get up and he gets to his knees. Fox stays down. Cage manages to stumble onto the top rope. He dives off the top rope and lands a MASSIVE Elbow Drop! He connects perfectly, and then collapses on top of Fox!

Winner: Cage

Ending

---

That's it. Shadow had searched high and low, near and far, searching for staff. The show now over, there was nothing he could do...nothing, that is, except go back to his office, and finish a little paperwork he was saving for the lulls. He walks past the blood drops on the floor, dried and cracked, and wonders just whose they were. However, he had pondered that all night, and had come to terms with the fact that he'd never understand it. Not today, anyway. He opens his door. Blackness. Odd, he thought. He knew he the light was on when he left before. Sliding his hand down the wall, he gropes the light switch, flicking it into place. As he looks into the room, the first thing he notices are the pools of blood all over his office. On his desk, on his chair, under his Tv EVERWHERE. Dark pools of the life energy just oozing through his office like a moat of evil.

Shadow: Jesus...

And finaly, reality set in and he sees the most horrid site in SFT history. His prized staff, hanging from the celing, each nailed to a swastica. First is Hect, covered in the smell of old rum, his eyes are beet red as if he was force fed alcohol for hours on end and blood covers his face. His GWL shirt is missing, but on his chest the word "ALCOHOLIC" has been carved. Next to him is Connor, his face is smered with his own blood and his wrists have been cut at an angle, not deep enough to kill him but deep enough to make him pass out. His shirt has been ripped open, revealing the word "GLUTON" on his chest. As the camera zooms in, we can see that his lips have been sewn shut. The center of his face has been cut in a straiht line, and nearly pulled apart.next is Harold, his arms are stapled to his swastica in what appears to be one humdred differnt places. His eyes are closed, but his face is coverde in brown, chunky vomit, as if he was forced fed something. As the camera zooms in we can see pieces of bamboo hanging out of his pale mouth. His chest has been carved with the words "LIAR". The very tips of his finger have had tiny pins stuck deep into them. On top of all this, his hair has been shaved off. Dean hangs as well, his face a grotesque mask of pain. Needles have been inserted randomly into his abdomen, long, thin needles. Very little blood has been spilled by this process...someone knew what they were doing. On his chest is carved the word "SIMPLETON." AJ Veritos is the last man on a swastika, his face is mangled, as though he were fed a mouthful of razorblades, then struck repetedly about the face. Most of the blades poke out of his cheeks, which are stuffed as full as a chipmunk's. If only the sight were as pleasant as a chipmunk. On his chest was carved "LEECH." Shadow remembered a match a month ago involving Paul Philips and Smurfmaster...the latter of which received a similar mangling. This was Holocaust's handiwork, their stink was in the air. He could understand the staff members, but why AJ?

As if to prove his comclusion, a letter mocked him from his desk. White as a freshly fallen snow...about the only thing that wasn't bloodspattered in the room. It was turse, and to the point:

Dearest Shadow:

We have struck the first blow against your federation. Your staff members were weak, and easily defeated. We offer you AJ back out of our fold. You can have him. Holocaust has no use for rabble-rousers, and weak links. You may consider this a declaration of war from the undersigned, Holocaust.

Paul Philips
Jeff King
Havoc
Joseph Mokoko
Exterminator

The last name catches Shadow's eye...

Shadow: Nathan Gust? Not you too! Not my own...son.

Shadow: These son of bitches think they can intimidate me, do they forget who the fuck I am? I am the one who created evil in this federation, I am the one who buried the devil himself, they want a war? War is not even close to whats coming their way. Something wicked this way comes, remember that boys, remember that.
