{MARCH TWENTY-FIFTH}

[ The scene opens as we see a black car pull up to the TNT Center. Out of it come Knife and Phantom, collectively known as the Lotus Pod. They grab their stuff out of the trunk and they begin to walk towards the building. A man steps out from the shadows. It's the same man that has been appearing on Titans for several weeks and then Inferno last week. He walks in front of Knife and Phantom. ]

Masked Man: Darkness falls... tonight.

[ The two men standing before this masked men both smiles before walking passed him. The scene fades to the office of Nathan Gust, where he was just watching what happened. Standing around him are Erik Dean, OutbreaK, Kid Krist, and Rumpke. ]

Nathan Gust: Shit. He's here. Be ready.

Erik Dean: Nate, for the last time, stop worrying. We got this under control.

Nathan Gust: I hope so.

[ The scene fades to the Dead Pac locker room, where Incubus is saying his last good-byes to the Lotus Pod. ]

Incubus: Well guys, this is it. I'm sorry to leave SFT and Dead PAC on such short notice, but it's my time. I know you guy may be worried about the future of Dead PAC, but you shouldn't be. The Dead PAC will never die. There are a few believers that won't let that happen. As you saw outside, darkness is going to fall tonight. Are you two ready?

[ Both men nod their heads as the scene goes back to Gust's office. ]

Nathan Gust: Damn it. I forgot all about Incubus retiring. I need to hurry up and re-book this event. Hmm... let me see. Rumpke, since you and Knife seem to want to beat the shit out of each other, I'm going to make it so. You two will face off in a hardcore match... with number one contendership for the TNT Heavyweight Title on the line. But before that... we will see Kamikaze take on that new guy Jeremiah Davis.

Erik Dean: Why?

Nathan Gust: I don't know. I want to see if Kamikaze is worthy of being on my show. We all know Cody Carson isn't. That's why he's not here.

Erik Dean: I thought he got injured during his match last week.

Nathan Gust: Well... he did... but... uhh... yeah...

Erik Dean: Right. Should we go to that first match now?

Nathan Gust: Sure.

[ The scene fades out to the ring, where Kamikaze is waiting for his opponent. ]

Kamikaze versus Jeremiah Davis
[ Standard Singles Match ]

[ Jeremiah Davis walks out from the backstage area to no music. As he begins to walk down the ramp, the fans laugh when they see toilet paper hanging off of Jeremiah's shoe. He slides into the ring and Kami points out the toilet paper. Jeremiah gets embarrassed as he kick it off of his foot. ]

Phil: Wow. This Davis kid sure is amazing.

Steve: What are you talking about?

Phil: This is his second week here in SFT and he's not even attempting to impress "the powers that be".

Steve: Don't forget about Kamikaze. He got his ass handed to him last week by the TNT Krew and Goldeneye.

Phil: Yeah. That was pretty funny.

[ The bell sounds and Kamikaze punches Davis between the eyes, sending him straight to the mat. He grabs Jeremiah's leg and he locks him with the Kamikaze Krab. Moments later, Davis taps out. The bell rings again. ]

Steve: Kamikaze finally tried to win a match! Holy shit!

Phil: That was an... interesting match, to say the least.

[ The scene fades to the backstage area, where we see Nathan Gust holding another note. ]

WINNER OF THIS MATCH: KAMIKAZE!

[ It is in this office that we also see Kid Krist playing a Gameboy, Rumpke drinking a bear, and Outbreak mentally counting all of Erik Dean's push-ups. ]

Nathan Gust: "I'll see you at the end of the night. - AN OLD FRIEND" What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Kid Krist: I think it means that an old friend is going to see you at the end of the night.

Rumpke: I think he knew that, Kid.

Kid Krist: Did you know that?

Rumpke: No...

[ Rumpke takes another drink of his beer. ]

Kid Krist: Then shut your mouth.

Erik Dean: Hey, Rumpke, aren't you supposed to be out in the ring? I think I hear "Take It!" playing.

Rumpke: Oh shit...

[ Rumpke jumps up and he runs out of the room in a hurry. ]

Kid Krist: Silly drunk. Anyway... I gotta go find somebody. I'll be back.

[ Kid Krist leaves the room and he walks down the hallway. He pushes a door swiftly, which knocks down Justin Paige, who was previously pacing on the other side of the door. Krist looks at Paige. ]

Kid Krist: Clumsy shmuck. Here, let me help you up!

[ Krist puts his foot on Paige's chest and pulls his arm up. Paige screams in pain and Krist pulls him up. Paige coughs when he is to his feet. ]

Kid Krist: You poor son-of-a-bitch, you're coughing up a storm. You must be sick. Maybe you should get some rest.

[ Krist hooks both of Paige's arms, lifts him up in the way that it puts him on Krist's back. Krist stands straight up as Paige's legs land on the ground, and Krist falls into an impaler - otherwise known as the Krist Driver. ]

Kid Krist: Good day, assfrog.

[ Krist walks away as Paige is completely knocked out and bleeding from the forehead. The scene fades to the ringside area, where "Take It!" by Insane Clown Posse is playing. Blue and green lights are already flashing. ]

Rumpke versus Knife
[ #1 Contendership for TNT Heavyweight Title : Hardcore Match ]

[ Knife steps out on stage with Mosh Girl and they hold their arms up and give the metal sign. When the lyrics start, Knife runs and bounces his way down the ramp slapping fives to people in the crowd. ]

Chimpo: The following match is for the number one contendership of the Tuesday Night Titans Heavyweight Championship. Introducing... from Ypsilanti, Michigan... being accompanied to the ring by Mosh Girl... "Ypsilanti Hardcore"... KNIFE!

[ Knife does a lap around the ring greeting the fans and then slides in the ring. He climbs to the second rope in one of the corners and does the metal sign again then hops down. Then, "Crazy Train" by Ozzy Osbourne plays as Rumpke comes out from behind the black curtain. He comes out drinking a beer, and with five still full bottles of beer in a six pack. ]

Chimpo: And his opponent... from Odon, Indiana... "Your Favorite Drunk"... RUMPKE!

[ Rumpke finishes the beer and picks up another. He runs down to the ring, and throws the bottle of beer at Knife's face, and Knife falls right down as the bottle makes a big "thump" on his head. Rumpke then begins to drink the next beer, and puts the rest of the six pack in the corner. Rumpke goes under the ring and grabs a chair, but some how Knife is up and kicks the chair in his face. ]

Phil: That looked quite painful.

[ Knife goes under the ring and pulls out a table. He begins to set it up, but Rumpke ear claps him with two bottle of beer and they explode all over his face. Rumpke finishes setting up the table, and picks up Knife. He sets Knife up on the apron, kicks him in the gut, and hits "Alcohol Poisoning" right through the table. Rumpke goes for the cover. ]

James Dupre: 1... 2... 3!

[ Rumpke celebrates the victory as he leaves the ring. ]

WINNER OF THIS MATCH: RUMPKE!

[ With a beer in hand, he makes it to the top of the ramp. As he turns to walk backstage, he gets knocked down by a big boot from Phantom. "Crazy Train" dies down as Phantom lifts Rumpke off of the ground. He lifts the drunk up and he delivers the Chandelier Drop onto the stage. Phantom then begins to walk towards the ring. He helps Knife up and the two talk for a moment until Knife leaves. As he nears the stage, "The Funky Ceili" by Black 47 plays. Erik Dean runs out and he clotheslines Knife. ]

Steve: It's main event time!

{MAIN EVENT}
Erik Dean*
versus Phantom
[ TNT Heavyweight Title ]

[ Erik Dean continues his run down to the ring. He slides into the ring and he pummels the much larger Phantom. The bell sounds. ]

Phil: Here we go!

[ Dean goes for a quick pin, but he can't even get a one count. Phantom throws Dean off of him before standing up. Phantom looks at Dean with rage in his eyes and he tackles the Commissioner into the corner. He gets ten hits in before Mr. Dupre pulls him off. Dean goes for a cheap shot, but Phantom catches him and chokeslams him. He doesn't go for a pinfall. Instead, he stands up and looks down at Dean. ]

Steve: What is he doing?

[ As Dean begins to get back to his feet, Phantom notices Rumpke run out from the back. Rumpke runs down to the ring and he throws a beer can at Phantom, which almost hits him in the head. With this distraction, Dean rolls up Phantom quickly. ]

James Dupre: 1... 2... NO!

[ Phantom kicked out just in time. He gets up and Dean sets him up for the The Spoken Words, which he connects. ]

Phil: Mr. Dean is proving that he's a true champion. Go Dean!

Steve: Shut up, kiss ass.

[ Before Erik Dean can go for the cover, "Darkness" by Peter Gabriel begins to play. The lights dim and everybody - including Erik Dean and Rumpke - looks to the stage. Smoke rises and out comes the masked man we saw earlier. ]

Phil: Oh great. Looks like he's going to ruin our main event.

Steve: Dude... shut up!

[ He slowly walks down the ramp and he sees that Rumpke is ready to fight. The masked man swiftly hits Rumpke with a double arm DDT onto the bottom of the stage. He then slides into the ring and he looks Erik Dean in the eyes. ]

Phil: Whoa. They are exactly the same height!

Steve: It's not that exciting.

[ The masked man kicks Dean in the stomach and he delivers the same spinning reverse suplex into stunner that he gave Nathan Gust a few weeks ago. ]

Phil: Damn! Why doesn't Mr. Dupre call for the bell?

Steve: This match is for the TNT Title. The rules of any TNT Title match aren't decided by SFT officials. They are decided by Mr. Gust, who hates disqualifications.

Phil: Oh. Okay.

[ The masked man helps Phantom up. The two men shake hands as the one with the black mask leaves the ring.. Phantom picks up Dean and he takes the fallen Commish to the corner. Phantom stands on the second rope and he lifts up Dean onto his back. Phantom lifts Dean over his head before slamming him down onto the mat. ]

Steve: Damn! Call Upon Your Gods!

Phil: Phantom makes the cover!

James Dupre: 1... 2... 3!

[ The bell sounds and Mr. Dupre hands the TNT Title to Phantom, who holds it high. From the backstage area comes Knife, who joins Phantom in the celebration of the winning of this unsanctioned title. ]

WINNER OF THIS MATCH: PHANTOM!

[ The two yell for the masked man to enter the ring. He slides in and he talks to Knife and Phantom. He tells Knife something before Knife grabs a microphone. ]

Knife: What you just saw was the beginning of the end of anybody who opposes the Dead Pac. Even though Incubus and Shadow have both left us, we will soon be putting our trust in a man with whom not many have trusted before. That man is the one you see before you in the black mask. We know that you want to sees his face, but it's not the right time. The right time, however, is on Sunday at Turning Point: Let There Be Light. The name fits the pay per view. It is a Turning Point for SFT, but there won't be light. There will be darkness.

[ He hands the microphone to Phantom. ]

Phantom: This man came here tonight for a reason. That reason is to say something to Nathan Gust in person. So... boy... get your ass out here.

[ "Bring the Pain" by Mindless Self Indulgence blasts and the fans go insane as Nathan Gust walks out with the rest of the TNT Krew. He stops on the stage and tells them to leave. As they walk backstage, Nathan walks down the ramp. He gets into the ring and he stands in front of the masked man. Nathan waits as Phantom hands the man the microphone. ]

Masked Man: At Turning Point... a new chapter of my life will begin... and the last of yours will end. I'll see you then.

[ He drops the mic as the three men leave the ring. Nathan stands there in shock as the show fades to black. ]
