...
*Gavin jogs back up to the ring and announces the next match* Our next contest, pits the vile traitor and member of The UnStable Stigma! Versus the ever pompous, but with the skill to back it up, Tiiiim Doooooonst!
*The screen flickers to a cocky grinning Donst* Shane Storm huh oh sorry...the Vemon from spiderman ripoff now...Stigma! Oooooh Im shaking, Stigma Im not afraid of you...never have been, why would I be afraid when Im clearly better than a loser like you? I mean really, I couldnt be happier about ruining your life and telling Quack that it was you who went to Mantis...and in the end I join the BDK and screw Quack too, lifes funny! But Stigma I have to tell you this because you seem to be too stupid to comprehend. Try to follow along I know its hard for you. You're the past...someone no one cares about anymore, and I, am the Man, Tim Donst. The best thing going today, and the catalyst of the BDK! And when I beat you tonight Stigma...you'll be what you've always been, and even what you were when you were winning with Quack...a sellout, and a loser...*winks grinning. Tom frowns at the screen*
*The screen flickers to an angry looking Stigma* ...Tim Donst...Ive been waiting for this a long time...because of you I-! *he blinks...pauses a minute...looks away. Then he starts up again* ...You know what? ...I brought this all on myself. I brought my own destruction on myself...I brought the hatred of the Technicos on myself...I brought you telling Quack on myself. *Shakes his head a little looking away* Really...it was all my fault. Looking back...it all for a win, I threw it all away because I couldnt handle that I was in a slump...*runs a hand over his head, and sighs* But that doesnt mean Im still not going to kick your ass Donst...because lets face it, it really needs it. And Im going to teach you a lesson that not even the head injury I'm about to give you wont allow you to forget! I really hope you're ready...I have alot of anger I still have to get out...and you just happen to be my stress reliever...*Tom and Gerard both look at each other, then look back*
Leonard- Very strong words exchanged here wrestling fans, very strong...joining me also for this soon to be head on collision, is none other than Ophidian...
*Ophidian is talking to his mask* Yeesssssss...this match has sooooo much boiling ssssso ssssso much...the anger, the torment, it is wonderusssssss...
Leonard- Well...glad you're happy about that...*rolls his eyes*
*The BDK's theme starts up, and out comes Donst* OOOOH YEEAH! take it in baby take it in! *walks by Della and points at Tom and Gerard* Get a good look at your idiot beause it'll be the last time you see him before I end 'em! *Tom's fist clenches, the guardrail bends* *Gerard sighs* Easy there Tom, have some restraint and faith in Stigma...
*The UnStables theme starts up Stigma growling, points to Donst and roars. Tom nods* I have faith in him. Hope he will take Donst down.
Leonard- This is going to reach a boiling point rather quickly...
Ophidian- Yessssss the angerrrrr...
*Stigma slides into the ring anf charges Donst and takes him down right and left hadnging him. Donst flails and gets to the ropes and ref backs up Stigma who growls at him, the ref just says he is doing his Job. Stigma turns and Donst knees him in the Gut, hooks his arms around his gut and delivers a Gutwrench, then another, then a third! Cover 1...KICKOUT at 1! Donst growls* Hey ref slow count! *Tom frowns* Slow count my foot. Who does he think he is?
Leonard- Donst trying to put Stigma away early here but he doesnt seem to be able to. Stigmas been waiting for this a long time to really get his hands on Donst alone in that ring, no one to save him.
Ophidian- But now that he hassss...will be be able to do what he desiressssss? I do not hear good tidingsssss for Sssstigmaaaaa...*Leonard sighs, he has to deal with this now...*
*Donst gets Stigma up, Stigma delivers a forearm, Donst delivers one back, Stigma delivers a stronger one, then another then- Donst pokes him in the eye, Donst laughs* Ha ha loser! *grabs Stigma and gets him in a DDT position, hooks his arm as well and spins him for the Gator Roll neckbreaker. Donst covers 1...2...KICKOUT! Donst growls* Red stop slow counting! *Tom growls* I'll give him a slow count if he keeps that up.
Leonard- Donst has the upper hand here he clearly doesnt want to be in the ring with Stigma for too long
Ophidian- I sssssensse his feaaaar, oh yessssss...the fear..hidden underneath his pomopussss attitude, his cockynesssss, he wants to end this quickly...
*Stigma gets up on his knees, Donst slaps him* Stay down! *slaps him again* Your nothing! do you hear me! Stay down or Ill pout you down like a dog! *smacks him again. Tom is seething. The edge of the guardrail really suffering*
Leonard- This is just disrestectful right here...
Ophidian- Oh but it is sssssoooo wonderous to watch...
*Donst reels back for another smack, on the downswing Stigma grabs his hand and bites it, Donst screams* OOOOOOW! *pulls back shaking his hand, Stigma turns him over, forearms him right into a DDT, a Flowing DDT! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Stigma grunts, gets him up, but Donst goes over to the ref, back turned to Stigma, Stigma grabs him as he and the refs backs are turned, Donst having a pointless conversation with him about hair pulling, he brings his leg back low blowing Stigma, kicking him right between the legs blatant, Stimga drops in agony. The refs back is turned though so he doesnt see it. Tom roars* FOUL PLAY! *Gerard sighs* Why are all referees so stupid?
Leonard- OH! A Low Blow and that might be it...
Ophidian- Ooooooh the wonderous pain Stigma is in...it is sssssoooo satisssfying...
Leonard- ...You are extremely creepy lately you know that?
Ophidian- SSSSILENSE!
*Donst goes over and covers 1...2...KICKOUT! Donst growls, slaps him again* You dont learn do you?
Leonard- Oh but Stigma wont go down that easily!
Ophidian- He issss a fool...
*Donst gets Stigma up and puts him in the turnbuckle, back facing Donst on the ropes, runs and relivers a Donst Cap. Stigma groans. Donst then delivers right and left to his prone body, kicking him as he falls over awkardly to the mat blow* Ill make you learn to stay down! *The official pulls Donst away this time with Stigma on the ropes Donst had a five count to break, still a nasty flurry. Tom is normally a pretty peaceful guy, but with everything going on he's just about ready to lose it. Seeing his hero getting trounced unfairly, and disrespected on top of it.
Leonard- Donst has completely snapped here, maybe even more than my broadcast collegue at this moment
Ophidian- You are pusssshing your safety Chikarasssson!
*Donst gets Stigmas head on the middle rope and presses down, Stigma flails helplessly getting choked. Donst breaks at 4, Stimga slumps over, then Donst runs and delivers a side kick sending Stigma rolling hard to the outside Gerard watches, says* This is the most Ive seen Stigma...well...on the ropes. Usually he's focused in a rage but...well judging by the promo thing I think him finally seeing it was all his fault...plus Donst being an idiot...Stigma's not Stigma right now.
Leonard- Stigma is in deep trouble here
Ophidian- It is only a matter of tiiiiime...
*Donst gets out of the ring, Takes stigma and throws him into the ring post, Stigma flops over, Donst goes after him, but he rolls underneath the ring, Donst smirks* Already crawling back in the hole you came out of? Fine! If you learned not to mess with me, thanks for making my life easier! *Donst gets in the ring, yells* Count Ref! NOW! *the official sighs, begins* One...Two...!
Leonard- Did...Stigma just quit?
*Ophidian just chuckles*
*Tom stares...turns* Gavin...give me your microphone...*Gavin turns hearing him* ...What *Tom says it again8 Give me...your microphone...*Gavin blinks...well he isnt going to argue with Tom, hands it over. Tom stands up, facing the ring.* Stigma, its Tom. Look, I know you're in a bad way right now...but I need to tell you something. No matter how bad things get...just you remember one thing. No matter what happens, no matter which way you go, you were the hero to a five year old little boy who was so bashed in he couldn't move. Stigma, I wouldn't be here today without you. You are still my hero, and you remember that, do you hear me? Remember that! You are a HERO.
*Ophidian spits* Who GAVE him a microphone? *Tom just laughs and continues counting with the ref*
*Stigma curls under the ring, he cant...he cant focus...wheres the rage...wheres his anger? He should want to rip Donst to shreds but, his admitting that it was all him...its...its taken the rage away. Then he hears Toms speech, his words...his eyes widen...after the rage dies...the darkness leaves, but in the calm...can come...a Storm...*
*At the count of 11 theres a faint glow under the ring, a flash of sorts, then nothing, Donst doesnt take notice, he's too bust counting with the ref cockily *Tom pauses*... What just happened? *Gerard just stares*
Leonard- You saw that too right? Ophidian? What was that?
*Ophidian is frantically talking to that head of skin* I DONT KNOW! ANSWER ME, WHAT WASSSS THAT?
*Donst still counts* Seventeen! *On the opposite end of the ring behind Donst, stumbles something...that something turns...and silently crawls in the ring. That something has a white head, big ears...a goofy face...a yellow mullet and moustache...a shirt labled 'That Japanese Move! jeans shorts and tan boots...Donst continues* Eighteen! ...Ref...Ref come on keep counting! *Tom stares wide eyed...sits down hard on his chair. It busts under him, sending him to the floor, but he barely notices.*
*Leonard just stares open mouthed...Ophidian looks to his mask, back to the ring, mask, ring, mask*
*Donst growls* Why did you stop? *Sti-...Shane Storm, taps Donst on the shoulder, Donst blinks, hasnt turned around yet. The crowd is just dead silent, staring, most of them slack-jawed. *Donst turns. Storm stares, then grins* Hi *Lifts a shocked Donst and gets him in position, hooking his head under his arm, and spikes him with an Air Raid Crash! Covera 1...2...KICKOUT! Storm pulls hair stunned. Donst rolls away, flopping like a fish. Tom still can't move from the floor. Della who has been silent for most of this, looks over at Quack. Quack is just staring in the back, expression unreadable*
Leonard- ...I...ladies and gentleman...I dont...know what to say...
*Ophidian is yelling at the snake like skin* YOU DID NOT TELL ME THISSSSS! THIS IS NOT FORSSSEEEEN!
*Storm lifts Donst, who screams like he's seen a ghost, and lifts Storm up on his shoulder and spins him down head first hard, delivering a Donstitution! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! *Donst screams* COUNT FASTER REF FOR GODS SAKE COUNT! *Toms mouth opening and closing like a fish. Gerard doesnt know what to say either*
Leonard- Donst's mind has been knocked for a loop and...I cant blame him I...its Shane Storm!
*Ophidian continues to argue not paying attention to the match anymore*
*Donst gets him up for another Donstitution, Storm elbows him and gets down, lifts a leg over Donsts head, and flips up and hurricanrannas him over. Donst flips over and gets up on one knee just in time to see Shane nail him with THAT JAPANESE MOVE! the Enzuguri! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Shane slaps the mat exasperated*
Leoanrd- THAT JAPANESE MOVE! But it still isnt enough!
Ophidian- Thissss is a TRAVESTY! Thissss should not be happening!
*Shane grabs Donst, who pokes Storm in one of his eyes, storm grabs it reeling back and Donst takes him for another Donstitution, but Storm gets out of it, hooks Donst around the middle for a German Supled, but Donst elbows out of it, Storm runs at Donst who Grabs Shane, hooks his leg and flips him over for a big Exploder Suplex. Storm gets up dazed, and Donst clotheslines him down hard and forearms him repeatedly in the head, then turns him over* YOU'LL STAY DOWN AND LIKE IT! *gets his foot underneath storms heed, and sinches in the Inverted CHIKARA Special. The whole crowd holds its breath*
Leonard- Oh no...
Ophidian- YESSSSSS, the unforseeeeen facctor shall be eliminated now...
*Donst cranks, Storm flails...a minute goes by...then...Donst screams...he screams loud, and...lets go of the Hold! Rolls away in pain. Donst gets up, and Shane grabs him, getting him over in the Tombstone Position, and spikes him on his head for a Tombstone Piledriver! Covers 1...2...3! PINFALL! Storm Wins and advances! ...Not only did he win but...he made Donst break the Inverted Special! Storm flops over exausted. Della stares... but... how? *There are visible bite marks on Donsts shoe, the foot that was under Shanes head. Della breaks into a grin*
Leonard- Shane Storm did it! He's back! And not only is he back folks he's movi9ng on in the tournament!
*Ophidian stalks away completely dishevled and very angry*
Leonard- Good riddance...
*Storm gets up wobbily, using a rope as leverage...then Quack comes out, silently, and goes into the ring. Della stares...now she's holding her breath. Quack stares at Shane, Shane gets up. They stare at each other for what seems like a very long time, Quack looks stoic. Storm opens his mouth to say something...then looks away, still ashamed and full of guilt. Quack stares at Shane...and slowly steps up to him. He tilts Shanes head so he's looking him in the eye. Quack looks Shane in the eyes for a moment, then...he embraces him. Storm nearly falls over, good thing Quack is strong...and he...returns the embrace like he cant believe its happening. Della cries for other reasons now. Tom is happy for Shane...but looks over to Gerard...Gerard looks at him and shrugs, and then looks back to the scene*
*Quack pulls back, he's definitly fighting back some tears of his own. He pats Storm on the shoulder, and raises his hand in victory, neary the entire crowd gives a standing ovation *Della applauds. Tom slowly gets up from the floor and claps, a new chair is brought for him, reinforced. Quack pats him on the back and goes to the back, Storm doesnt, Donst is out cold and the medical staff plus Jakob is quickly attending to him taking him to the back, Storm goes to the side, and goes to Gerard to talk to him*
*Gerard and Storm begin a talk, Storm says* I dont know how it happened I just...it happened and now Im back to this again, I dont know how it works! *Gerard nods* Uh huh...nice moment with Quack there *Storm looks away* ...Oh...yeah well... *Gerard sighs* Its ok to say you've wanted that for a long time *Storm looks down* You hate me now dont you? *Gerard stares at him* ...No...doesnt change anything does it? *Storm looks up*...It doesnt? *Gerard sighs* No you idiot...just because you and Quacks are on speaking terms again doesnt mean we arent still friends... *Storm blinks* ...Oh...but...I think...that I'm Technico again, doesnt that mean anything? *Gerard shrugs* No...I think we're more on that side of the fence at the moment anyway. So stop griping and just enjoy your win...alright? *Storm nods* ..Um...yeah alright...*Goes over to Tom, feels himself* ...Forgot what my mullet felt like...*Tom ks still a bit in shock*...looks good. *Della gives a small smile* Not an idiot anymore. *Tom frowns* Della. *Della sighs* I was complimenting him! *Storm grin* Thanks...feel alot different now than when I was Stigma...believe it or not I seemed a little irritable in that form...*Tom coughs, Della outright snorts, Storm looks* Well Ill be back...I have to go commentate! *Leaves, Tom smiles a bit...he's glad to have Shane Storm back*
*Storm goes up and sits* Hey Leonard! *Leonard grins at him* Its great to have you back Shane *Storm nods* Feels good to be back...what do you say we have a great commentary? *Leonard nods* Please...Ive had a rough first round...
*Gavin gets the next match...and grins...gets back in the ring* Alright, we've all been waiting for a match like this, ever since certain events tonight. Please welcome Ultramantis Blacks right hand man, member of the Order of The Neo Solar Temple...Crossbooooones! *Gavin purposely withholding who he's facing, until his promo passes*

*Crossbones nods* Thanks, Eddie- WHAT? *Blinks...looks to the side of him...just in time to see a steel chair come down straight on his head, he stands there a second, and falls over, Eddie walks onto the screen, looks to the camera, and grins* MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS! *Eddie lifts Crossbones up and taps his face* Oh no no no buddy c'mon stay awake, the funs just startin'! You're gonna have a real fun time tonight courtesy of the Warking. Hey there Baby Girl, get out a camera, you're gonna want to film this...and Im gonna want a copy...*throws Crossbones into the wall* ...See you out there, Holla! *drags crossbones off camera* *Della can't help grinning. Pulls out a camera*
Leonard- Oh this will be fun...
Storm- You got that right!
*Eddie Drags Crossbones and throws him, he rolls out the entrence way, squirming on the ground trying to get away, but Eddie just kicks him in the ribs sending him rolling in pain, Eddie picks him up, grabs the dreadlocks on his head* Who wants ta count with me? Lets do it *Slams Crossbones head repeatedly in the ring post* One! Two! Three! Four! Five! *This continues until* Thirty! *Crossbones falls limp on the outside, Kingston dusts off his hands*
Leonard- Crossbones may be dead...
Storm- I dont think so, wheres the fun for Eddie if he kills him?
*Darkdiamond turns to Mantis backstage* Master let me in the ring, I'll teach that fool a lesson! *Mantis raises a hand* No no...Crossbones will be fine he has a tough exterior... *Eddie brings Crossbones over and throws him into a guardrail, brings his near lifeless body up, puts an arm around him and smiles big for Dellas camera. Della snaps pictures*
Leonard- That is definitely a Kodiak moment!
*Eddie grins* Look at that Crossbones she got your good side! But ya got soemthin right here *backfists him right in the head, Crossbones falls like a tree on the outside*
Leonard- Oooooooh
Storm- Man this is great...except for Crossbones he will be in excruciating pain for a very long time...but for everyone else this is great!
*Eddie brings Crossbones up again to the guardrail, and chops his chest, chops chops ...chops...chops...chops...*breath*...CHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOP! *Crossbones screams in agony*
Leonard- Chops galore
Storm- Im glad Im up here I'll say that much...
*Diamond growls* MASTER! *Mantis stays firm* No, Crossbones must fight the battle, you cant run interference or you'll give Kingston what he wants! *Eddie throws Crossbones in the ring...and the bell rings...yeah thats the official start to the match. Eddie covers 1...2...Kingston brings Crossbones shoulder up and shakes his head* Nah...Im not done yet...
Leonard- This might go on awhile
Storm- Thats fine with me
*Kingston brings Crossbones up for another hard backfist, gets him still on his feet and lifts him over for a spiked Backdrop Suplex, Crossbones is now limp in a sitting position, Kingston runs against the ropes and leaps delivering a hard forearm shot to him, the Sliding D, cover 1...2...3...you could count forever...Crossbones would still be unconsious...PINFALL! Kingston advances!*
Leonard- Slaughter complete
Storm- Well that was fun!
*Kingston smirks, bends down to Crossbones* When ya wake up...deliver the pain I just gave you to Mantis...because that...is a fraction of what ill give him...*gets out of the ring*
Storm- ...And I thought when he bloodied my nose when he fought me was brutal...
Leonard- I know...well...it was fun to have you here Storm at least, that was a great stress reliever! *Storm nods and leaves*
*The medical staff drags a limp Crossbones to the back*

She gulps a bit*
*The screen flickers to Jagged and Archie, Archie speaks up first*...I suddenly feel...I may be joining Veronicas bedside in worse shape than she is *Jagged sighs* This is...normally why I tag team... *Archibald gulps, then shouts* ...FEAR NOT FELLOW COMBATANT! With our combined mights, we shall be able to slay the giant! *Jagged turns to him* ...You've seen Tursas right? *Archibald grins* Size does not matter, it is brain over brawn! *Jagged pauses...says again*...Have you SEEN his blog entries? *Archibald pauses...then replies* IRRELEVANT! For tonight, we are the Davids who slay the Goliath, togeather, we may bring down Tursas, and then, fight amonst ourselves for the next round! Yes, and it will be easy to take him down! *Jagged thinks about it...grins* ...Maybe your right *turns away from Archie* Maybe there is strength in numbers...maybe he could do this thing Archie, yeah *turns back around* Lets- *Archis is hyperventalating into a broan paper bag. Jagged stares, Archie immediatly puts it behind his back and grins*...All the confidence in the world! *Jagged just walks away, Archibald nods* See you out there in our quest for triumph! *bits a finger nervously before walking off as well*
*The screen flickers to Tursas...who just stares...blinks...puts a food bib around his neck with Archie and Jaggeds face on it...grunts, and walks away*
Leonard- Well folks we just came back from a Slaughter and we might be walking into another, joining me is Eddie Kingston, Eddie...what do you think?
Kingston- I think this match is gonna be hilarious is what I think, 20 bucks says Tursas throws both of em like lawn darts...
Leonard- Aren't Archie and Jagged your friends?
Kingston- Do I look like I say BOOYAH and March around?
Leonard- ...Good point
*3.0's theme starts up and out walks a none too happy Jagged, he should be happy considering what Shane did to Jigsaw...but this destroyed his mood...Della still gives him a tentative thumbs up, Jagged nods to her and gets in the ring.*
*Then Archie's theme starts up and...out...marches with a horrified look on his face, Archie. He looks to Della with an expression reading '...Help...' before getting in the ring. Della winces...*
*Then...the BDK's theme starts up...and out comes Tursas...Archibald and Jagged back to the corner of the ring quickly, farthest away as they can be, Tursas walks by Della...stares, then steps in the ring. Della looks afraid for her friends*
Leonard- Oh this could be bad
Kingston- Dinner time...
*The bell rings, Archie and Jagged look at each other, Tursas stands a minute, then runs at them full force, both scream and move, Tursas slams into the turnbuckle hard Jagged and Archie look to each other...then they high five and grin, until Tursas turns back around at them half a second later, glaring, Archibald and Jagged's eyes widen*
Kingston- I love how they thought they actually did somethin' there...
*Archie and Jagged look at each other...they both shrug...and run at Tursas charging, Tursas runs back, extends both arms, and delivers a double Lariet to both of them. They both flip like they've been knocked into an orbit and crash down*
Leonard- Ooooh Double Lariet and both of them go down hard!
Kingston- OOOOH! The airtime they got on that. Beautiful!
*Tursas walks over and picks Jagged up, hurls him like a ragdoll into the Turnbuckle, then he takes Archie and throws him into the opposite turnbuckle...builds up a head of steam, runs into the turnbuckle and squishes Jagged. Tursas immmediatly turns and slams into the turnbuckle Archie is in squiching him, Tursas brings a dazed Archie out, and chucks him into the turnbuckle Jagged it in, and then runs back first into the turnbuckle squishing them both, both fall over like their limbs are jello*
Leonard- Just torturing them here...
Kingston- Ill be shocked if all their organs are in the right places...
*Tursas picks Jagged up, and delivers a big scoop slam to him, then puts Archie on top like a sandwitch, bounces against the ropes, and delivers a jumping splash to both of them, they both cry out in pain*
Leonard- Ooooh Tursas is just toying with them here...
Kingston- Thats about the worst sandwitch Ive ever seen. Jagged and Archie, I hope you both wrote your wills today!
*Archibald rolls away from Jagged in agony, uses the ropes to get up. Tursas rears like a bull and charges at him, Archie screams openly like a woman, bends the top rope, and...Tursas misses archie going right over it, and landing on the ground...DOWN...Archie blinks* ...YES! *Does marching dance like he WON the match, Jagged gets behind him and rolls him up, cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Archie rolls rhrough getting an inside cradle on Jagged cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Jagged flips over archie when he gets up for a sunset flip cover 1...2...Archie rolls up on Jagged for a cover 1...2... Jagged rolls back down to cover Archie 1...2...Jaggged rolls up reversing it. This pinning thing is going on for a bit*
Leonard- Well both finally got a breather from Tursas,now both just trying to put the other away as fast as possible...
Kingston- And while this is happenin' the clock is ticking until Tursas gets back in the ring...
*Tursas eventually gets up angry, and gets on the ring apron, Jagged and Archie see it, and run full force delivering a double dropkick to his legs sending him back down to the ground again. Both grin and high five, then Jagged takes Archies hand and flips him over for an arm drag, Archie runs back at him and gets another arm drag, Archie gets up again and gets a dropkick. Jagged runs against the ropes, leaps, and delivers a Legdrop to Archie. Jagged covers 1...2...KICKOUT! Jagged groans exasperated picks Archie up, but Archie fights back, turns Jagged around and lifts him up and down for an Atomic Drop hard, knee to posterior! Jagged reels in agony, Archie goes off the ropes, and grabs Jaggeds head flipping over for the DDT style flip neckbreaker, or a Running Blockbuster! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Now its Archie whos exasperated*
Leonard- They were able to dismiss Tursas again momentarily, both are trying but they cant put the other away
Kingston- Only a matter of time Leonard...
*Archie gets to the top rope and looks like he's going to go for his headbutt...but then tiurns...and sees Tursas is back up on the outside, staring at him, Archie blinks...and locks onto the ropes like a Crab of sorts as self defense. Tursas climbs back up, a prone Jagged waiting in the ring, Tursas takes him, and gets him in a DDT position, but delivers a front neck suplex, sending Jagged down hard, the second Tursas hits the ground, Archie flies off for a headbutt, Archie whoops getting up...just a second later Tursas sits up and glares at him, Archibald blinks...taking a few steps back*
Leonard- Oh that was a mistake
Kingston- Ooooh this should be good!
*Archibald stares...then seeths* ...RAAAAAAAH! *Runs at Tursas and punches and kicks his middle repeatedly...all it seems to be doing is bouncing off Tursas's exterior meekly. Tursas just stares, after a minute looks at an imaginary watch on his wrist as Archie continues. Della winces* Not too much pain... please...
Leonard- This is not going to be pretty
Kingston- Get good angles from the cameras boys!
*Archie huffs* Give me a second...*Takes a deep breath, screams and runs against the ropes, Tursas catches him and delivers a spinning side slam, spinning him right down to the mat hard. Archie flops, cover 1...2...KICKOUT!. Tursas roars as Archie spazzes, Jagges uses the bottom rope to get some kind of leverage to get up quietly avoiding Tursas's gaze in doing so*
Leonard- Tursas is clearly frustrated here I thought that would be it as well...
Kingston- Just makin' Tursas angrier, and wait whats Jagged doin'?
*Tursas gets to kneeled position, and Jagged takes his chance. He leaps and delivers a dropkick right to the back of Tursas's head, Tursas holds his form tilting slightly, then Jagged springs, and delivers a Tornado DDT to the prone Tursas! Tursas rolls away a bit, Jagged sees Archibald is the smarter one to get. Jagged picks Archibald up, gets him in a powerbomb position* For you Shane, BOOYA! *lifts him up, and delivers a Powerbomb! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Jagged groans* WHAT!
Leonard- Oh Jagged ALMOST had it!
Kingston- Ill give it to Jagged, he almost pulled off somethin' there, but Archie's one stubborn guy, he dont go down easy...
*Jagged gets Archibald in a powerbomb position again...then looks...and sees on the opposite side of thee ring...Tursas is up. Jagged stares*...Uh oh...*Tursas runs at Jagged, and...you swear you hear a truck horn honk, and he jumps, Jagged screams, getting all of Tursas's diving crossbody, Tursas flies and rolls out of the ring because he was close to the ropes a moment shaking his head, Archie dizzily wobbles having been completly missed by the splash being in Jaggeds Powerbomb position...and just falls down...onto Jagged. It's a cover 1...2...3! ...ARCHIE WINS!...ARCHIE WINS!*
Leonard- WHAT?
Kingston- WHAT!
Crowd- WHAT?
*Tursas blinks...looks back into the ring. Archie blinks looking around dizzily...sees an unconsious Jagged under him, the Ref nods to him leaving the ring quickly. Archie blinks...then cheers happily and pumps his fists* I DID IT! *Della shakes*... Archie...
Leonard- Oh no...
Kingston- Oh yeah Archie you won...you really won...
*Archie marches around the ring, and turns around grinning pumping his fists...the second he does...he's bet by a flying body splash by Tursas...*Della recoils* Ow... *Tursas grabs him by the throat, and lifts him up for the Kreuzes bomb, a Cross Bomb Razors Edge..looks like he'll do it in the ring...then turns...and launches him like a dart out of the ring, Archie splats limp on the outside, Tursas growls and leaves. Della turns away horrified*
Leonard- Oh No!
Kingston- Well...Arrchie might not have the best go about things next round...
*Gavin sneaks in the ring* Alright folks, we're gonna take a short break so the fighters can recover while we draw for the next round, stay tuned. *Della blinks...they only get a little bit to recover...but...ARCHIE! She quickly runs backstage with Tom and Mikko*
*There is a Hospital recovery section back there. Most of the wrestlers are there. Veronica has a patch on her head, looks at a seemingly dead Archibald on a medtable* ...Ok Im mad at him...and even I think this looks bad...*Della winces* This is nowhere near enough time for him to recover...how can they keep the Tournament going in the same day? They have to have a little bit of time right? *Gerard looks to her* Well, we are demons, we haver a better recovery time than humans do...but...yeah...Archie might need quite a few days...Grim looms in the medbay* On de plus side, he wont die... *Della sighs* Yeah thanks for that Grim...
*Tursas comes into the room, and sits silently. Veronica frowns* And what are you doing here you massive lummox? Havent you done enough? *Tursas growls. Veronica stays firm* You really dont scare me, go pillage something *Della sighs* Look is there something we can do for you? *Tursas hands her a paper. Della takes it, reads* Per Tournament Rules, if the winner is injured beyond ability to continue, the loser of the match the winner was in, will replace him in the next round...*looks up* Im going to guess that wont be Jagged if thats the case... *Tursas to Jagged who is unconsious on another emdtable, Della sighs* Right... *Tursas looks at Archibald, who is in rough shape, and grunts sitting, he has nothing better to do than monitor his condition...if he doesnt progress to get better...then he will take the match place...*
*Colin stares half out of it* Hey...look...Stigmas a crossing guard again! *Storm sighs* Yeah Colin...just rest buddy...*Saturyne goes to Della, looks down* I'm...so sorry I couldnt beat DarkDiamond I...just wasnt ready for her and...*Della pats her head* Its alright...you did your best, and you didnt know, none of us did...*Saturyne nods, Quack observes the next round competitors* The odds are in our favor Della, for someone to get Tiana out of that control she is under *Della nods looking down* I'll, try not to get too worked up...the baby and...everything. *Quack nods* Don't worry...we'll save her *Della sits as all the wrestlers get medical treatments if needed for the next round of action, which woll begin soon...Della sighs...if the second round was anything like the first, she might just lose her mind...if she hasnt already.*
