The fans stirred restlessly as the superstars waited impatiently in the ring. Chris Benoit let Chris Jericho slide down off from around his shoulders to sit down and rest. Jeff Hardy and Christian by his side. Kurt Angle looked over, he could tell Chris Benoit was growing very tense and nervous, his fists were clenched, his face was strained.

"Is there nothing we can do?" He asked.

"Yes, just one…." Benoit replied through gritted teeth, Kurt waited expectantly. "Wait." Kurt sighed.

Hulk Hogan just frowned, "Well I dunno about this generation, but back in my day we didn't wait for a fight to come to us, we took action and made things our business! So come on now!" He jumped over the ropes and started up to the top of the ramp, the fans roaring.

"No Hulkster wait…!" Kurt gasped, Hogan stopped and turned around.

Benoit smiled, "Good luck."

Hogan nodded back, "Thanks kids." And with that he disappeared behind the curtains.

"I just hope…" Kurt gulped. "He knows what he's doing."

Hiedenriech and Edge Guerrero had already begun fighting, the room was a mess, as were the ones next too it, but you couldn't tell they were separate room as the walls had all crumbled down, the doors had been blown out, holes were in the floor, fixtures were busted and shattered, still neither had the upper hand and neither had begun to fatigue. Finally they both stopped, they had been testing each others strength.

Edge Guerrero smirked and got out of his fighting stance, "You know something John, this is the most exciting match of my entire life."

"I could say the same, but then again this is my first real match here in the WWE."

"Not to mention your last."

"Cocky Super Star, now I will show you my true power."

Edge Guerrero frowned, "True power?"

Hiedenriech began to power up, causing his opponent to worry as his energy levels jumped quickly until finally the waves exploded around him, causing Edge Guerrero to shield his eyes from the wind of the blast, Hiedenriech laughed, "Nobody can beat me." He began to laugh insanely, causing Edge Guerrero to start to worry.

"This guy is nuts, it looks like he's snapped along with his energy, we don't have any choice but to destroy him." Eddie Guerrero spoke.

"No we can't just go out and kill a man." Edge protested back to his body partner. "There has to be another way, he deserves another chance."

"Oh you think everybody deserves another chance, Champ."

"Stop calling me that, alright! Now look, you got another chance and look at you now." Edge's words caused Eddie to be silent for a moment.

"But think about it this way Edge." Edge jerked, Eddie had called him by his name! Eddie continued, "He could kill everyone we hold dear, how would you feel if Lita and Jericho, everyone was destroyed painfully by this monster of a madman? Everyone and everything we cherish is nothing to this man, and I wont stand for him to destroy and harm people for fun anymore. I have a duty as a wrestler and those I need to protect."

"….you were thinking of Chyna and Jeff when you said that, weren't you."

"…..rrrr…. Look Edge, I know you don't like killing, but it's him, or the world. You should know better the lives of the many out weight the lives of the few. Right?"

Edge smiled, "Yea, right. You're right Eddie."

"Hey, don't give me credit for that little speech, those are your words you know."

"Yea, I know. Thank you."

"I'm waiting!" Hiedenriech laughed.

"Come on you cocky bastard, give me your best shot!"

"Wanna talk about cocky, bastard?"

"Humph…" Edge Guerrero growled back, getting back into the battle pose.

"Allow me!" Hiedenriech blasted at them in less than a split second.

"AH!" Edge Guerrero flew back, blasting threw wall after all until finally he landed back and head against a large, thick concrete pole. "Oh, ow…" Just then he began to glow. "Wait, what the…?" Hiedenriech watched confused as Edge Guerrero turned into…

"Hey!" Edge looked down at his hands in shock.

"What?" Eddie Guerrero gasped and looked up. "Oh no, we've…"

"Gone back to normal!"

"Ha haha!" Hiedenriech laughed. "Looks like not even the power of the McMahon's is enough to stop me, even your combine efforts are futile."

Edge felt his ear, "Eddie, they're gone, they've been completely destroyed by John!"

"Great, then now what do we do?"

"Only thing we can do, fight old fashioned." Edge stood up and went Super Star. "Ah!" He fell and returned to normal.

"Edge, what's wrong, what is it?"

"My power, oh, I need time to rest, that blast took too much out of me."

"How much."

"What?"

"How much time do you need to rest? I'll buy it for you Edge, you're the only one who can surpass to the next ascended level." Eddie went Super Star. "I owe it to you and everyone else to give you that time."

"Five minutes."

"Only five?"

"It's all I ask Eddie."

"….alright then Edge, five minutes is what you want, and five minutes is what you'll get."

Edge smiled, "Thanks, Eddie."

Eddie nodded back and faced Hiedenriech, "Come on now John, time to meet your maker."

"Oh I'll meet him alright, but you'll be the one to tell him I'll be on my way."

Eddie turned up his nose, "Arg, do you listen to yourself? You're so mad your puns make no sense!

"They don't have to, I'm beautiful!" Hiedenriech roared madly.

Eddie cocked an eyebrow, "Wow, ok…"

"Don't pay attention to him, it's only been one minute, but it can only take one second to be the difference maker in this fight Eddie." Edge spoke up tiredly.

"Don't worry you'll get your five minutes."

"Thank you Eddie, and I promise you that you can rest after this, you won't have to fight anymore, my turn will be all that's needed."

Eddie turned back to the laughing maniac, and wore a slightly worried expression about this madman, "You're right, I will rest after this, I won't have to fight anymore… ever. Just, all I ask Edge, is that you please, forgive me…"
