Chapter Four: Sylvester is breaking the habit.

Daffy was with Larry in the van, watching the tape of their performance against The Dark Apprentices. The image showed Dark Slave snapping a kendo stick over Daffy's head.

"That looked like a stiff shot!" Larry said.

"I still have a bruise somewhere on my head from that!" Daffy exclaimed. Then Sylvester walked in. The tape then showed Red Tiger & Sylvester hitting the Snapshot on Dark Master.

"That move was so cool the first time I saw MNM do it, so I let him know what move I wanted to do to finish off the Apprentices." Sylvester explained. Sly then walked out to the back of the van, where he wouldn't be seen. Then he sang as he clutched the small pouch of catnip he found:

Memories consume
like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
you all assume
I'm safe here in my room
unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
the battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I don't want to be the one
the battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
that I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
and this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

He ended his song as Red Tiger popped around to see how he was doing.

"You all right?" Red asked. Sylvester stuffed the catnip away at the speed of light.

"Nothing… I just was focusing for the singles' match tonight!" Sly lied.

"OK. If you're having any problems or anything, come see me." Red replied.

"Ladies & Gentlemen, welcome to HWF Extreme TV on XNN. I'm Joey Styles and this is my tag team partner Mark Madden! Tonight on XNN, you will see Sylvester The Cat of the Wild Kru facing the Assassins' Jimbo Jones as well as Darth Vader, leader of the Public Enemy, face off with Team Crushers' Bart Simpson! All of this is leading up to End Of Annihilation, live on PPV!" Joey Styles announced as the show began.

After Vader squashed Bart Simpson with a Sith Chokeslam, Sylvester came out to face Jimbo Jones. Jones goes downstairs early on Sylvester sending him out of the ring. Jimbo jumps on him outside the ring before tossing him back in the ring and kicking him all over the ring. Sylvester gets an elbow up followed by chops, he slides under Jones and he goes for the Catastrophe Starter finisher but Jones gets him with an inside cradle for two. Jones knocks Sylvester down after the near fall. Jimbo puts Sylvester in a torture rack but Sylvester fights out, Sylvester sunset flips Jimbo and gets a two count. He gets back to his feet and chops before knocking Jimbo down with several blows. He walks on the back of Jimbo before hitting him with a running Enziguri. Sylvester goes for his running knee but Jimbo moves. Sylvester thumbs his eye and hits a double axe handle from the top rope. Sylvester goes for the moonsault but Jimbo gets his knees up. Jimbo plants him with a Power-bomb and nearly gets a 3 count. Jimbo gets on the apron but Sylvester nails him with a springboard dropkick. Jimbo lands on the apron. Sylvester pulls him back in and hits the Catastrophe Starter. Jimbo stays down for the three count.

Red Tiger pulled Sylvester to the backstage area after the match.

"Great job, dude! We're in the finals! Pontiac, Michigan is the final destination… and I've got a plan that will bring us the World Annihilation title!" Red said in celebration. Then a scream suddenly sounded off. Sly put his head back out the curtain to see Darth Maul & Bugs Bunny kidnapping Sierra.

"THEY GOT SIERRA! WE'VE GOT TO CATCH THEM!" Sly yelled, and the Wild Kru made a beeline for the van.
