*Gavin trots back up* Alright welcome to round three everybody! Or should I say...THE SEMI FINAAAAAALS! *The crowd roars* Thats right CHIKARA Fans, the winners of these matches, will go on to a final Four Man Elimnination match of duration and skill! And the winner of that, will be our new Graaaaand Champiooooon! *The crowd cheers wildly* To open up we have a match between the tecnico savior, and the REAL Greeeeeen Ant! He will be taking on a man with alot to prove and alot to gain, the reformed, Shaaaane Stoooorm!
*Green Ant flickers on screen* I dont know WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE! Besmirching my name like that! But whoever it is Im going to find out, Shane Im sorry but Im an ultra ticked tonight, and I might have to take it out on you...
Leonard- Very strong words, Im back ladies and gentleman with...Icarus...who won the Golden Opportunity match...
Icarus- Lets not forget Chuck Taylor advancing, who would be here if he wasn't preparing for his next matchup!
Leonard- He's knocked out yet isnt he?
Icarus- Shut up!
*Screen flickers to Storm* Green Ant Im sorry this is happening to you and all but...I believe in myself again and...beating Donst and Ophidian, its renewed my faith that I can win without rage, without cheating. Tonight, Im not stopping, not under your circumstances either, tonight I bring it all to win...see you out there
Leonard- Both men have alot of rage their going to be taking out on each other in this match
Icarus- Looking forward to it...
*UnStables theme starts up. and out comes Shane Storm, he waves to the crowd who roars its approval. Tom and Della exchange glances, silently agreeing not to encourage one or the other side, since they care for both. Shane high fives Tom and Della, and gets in the ring, looks focused on the task at hand*
Leonard- So who is your pick Icarus...if I have to ask you a question while you are here...
Icarus- Well both arent as great as any member of F.I.S.T., and neither will be able to beat Chuck Taylor, but if I have to pick one...I hate ants so Storm I guess.
*Then The Colony's theme starts up and out comes Green Ant looking serious. Della dips her head to Green Ant. Green Ant nods to her, doesnt see behind him runs that same Green Ant faced figure.
Leonard- Woah wait a minute GREEN ANT LOOK OUT!
*Green Ant doesnt notice...and he gets bashed right in the back of the head with the pipe, the same one Quack did...and Green Ant crumples. Della points shocked as the crowd boos* It's the fake Green Ant!
Leonard- Oh no!
Icarus- Well goodnight Green Ant...
*Storm looks stunned, he quickly runs out, the Fake Ant brandishes the pipe keeping Stprm back, Storm isnt stupid but if he tries anything funny with Green Ant, the fake ant just stares at him...his face slowly morphs, golden lines creasing it, the green and yellow turning blue...revealing some cold blue eyes of a gold and blue headed person*
Leonard- ...Who in the world is that?
Icarus- Does it look like I have a clue?
Leonard- He's the one who cost Quack the match versus Taylor so I dont know!
Icarus- Like Taylor needed any help!
*Della runs over and, gathers Green Ant into her arms quickly and glares up* Who are you, what do you want? *He doesnt say anything, he hears Technicos coming and leaves, Fire and Solider Ant out there fast, Storm also there checking on Green Ant. The medical staff rush in and take Green Ant to the back. They work on Green Ant's head there, trying to prevent the worse effects of concussion*
Leonard- Oh man that means with Green Ant unable to compete...
Icarus- Ha, I called it!
Leonard- Shut up Icarus...
Icarus- You're just jealous. Ooooh the poor Ant, big deal *he gets up and leaves, Leonard shakes his head*
*Gavin announced unfortunatly that due to Green Ant being unable to continue...Storm wins be default...he doesnt look happy about it, and the crowd doesnt look happy about it either. Mandy is up in the sky box as well, not too happy about this disturbance...but waits...wants to see it play out*
*In the medbay, the Technicos that have been eliminated are there, Quack sittiing up having seen it on the monitor, Jigsaw looks around, asks* Quack who was that guy? *No one seems to know at all, Jigsaw shakes his head* That guy picked the wrong people to mess with...*Dasher shakes his head* Question is why did he mess with us? *Quack looks at the ceiling from his bed, having seen everything on a TV in the room* His head...transformed from Green Ants...thats not good... *Jigsaw blinks, and realizes* ...He can transform into us? *Quack nods* It looked like it there. Im not sure how but it looks like some sort of...power... *Obariyon growls* He turns into me he'll regret it...
*Tiana frowns and pulls at Obariyon's arm. Obariyon turns to her and she pushes a hairclip into his hand, whispering* So I know which one you's is you show me that if'n there's a mixup. *she nods, Obariyon nods back* Ok Tiana, thanks. When you see Kodama and Kobald, do the same for them *Tiana nods, and runs around to them, giving all the Technicos there some sort of defining feature, a wristband or something like that, not all of them have hair*
*Storm sighs* I should'a took that guy, pipe or not...*grabs his head guiltily. Tom pats his shoulder* Don' feel bad about it. *Storm looks up* Im trying...I just wish I could have done more...that guy wheoever he is sent a message real quick to us...*Jigsaw speaks up* He tries it again, we'll send it right back, Eddie might be gettin' ready for his match, but trust me, he aint to happy about this either *Della asks* How many of you do you think he's after? *Jigsaw shrugs* Dont know...looks like he's after all of us, but I think to cause tension he attacked Quack as Green Ant, when we found out it wasnt Green...he took out Green too, and revealed himself since he couldnt hide he wasnt the actual anymore...
*Della purses her lips* Green Ant. *gently strokes his head* Rest. We'll figure this out. *Green Ant is still out cold, Fire and Soldier Ant by his side, the screens...flickering again Della glances up. The symbol is on it again, but then it flickers to words 'You cant hide anymore' *flicker* 'We see the truth' *flicker flicker static* 'We will take you out...and expose the truth' *flicker* 'We are done waiting' *static 'Our time...has come' *static...then back to normal. Quack stares* Ok...theres a 'WE'...*Della gulps* How many We? *One did enough damage. Quack sighs* I dont know, everyone keep a sharp eye out...the wrestlers are dwindling, I'm injured, the championship match is drawing nearer. I dont know when they'll strike next or who it will be. I dont know whats going on...but stay diligent *Jigsaw nods* Right *Dasher adds* Agreed... *Storm nods. Della: *Grabs a frying pan off a shelf-does she have these stashed everywhere?-and sticks the handle in her belt. Quack nods* Alright...lets see how the rest of these rounds play out, if they strike again, or anything else happens...
*Gavin jogs back to the ring, a little off put by whats happening, Mantis gone now somethings taken his place rather quickly* p next, we have the King versus the Queen! Eddie Kingstooooon versus Saraaaaa Del Reeeeeey!
*Screen flickers to Del Rey* Eddie Kingston...I've been waiting to fight you for a long time. See I know Im tough, I know I can take on most men, but see you...you Eddie are going to be a big test for me. Can I take down the man who just will not die...can I take down someone who just doesnt quit? Well tonight Eddie I find out, .and dont think going through me is going to be an easy test, and I think you know better than to ever take me lightly. Tonight Eddie I show you EXACTLY why I am the Queen of Wrestling, and why toonight...a King falls. See you out there...
Leonard- Well folks, alot of things are transpiring as of late, but joining me is the first finalist of the Grand Championship Tournament, Shane Storm. Storm I know you didnt want the win that way, but how do you feel about this match tonight?
*Storm sighs* Well...either one will be an extremely tough opponent, and it is very hard to pick a favorite. Unfortunatly my mind as well as alot of peoples, are on this GEKIDO...
Leonard- I agree, and it is getting to alot of people now, how is Eddie taking all this?
*Screen flickers to Eddie* Ladies and Gentleman, tonight I fight Sara, sorry sweetheart if Im not as enthused right now as you are. My minds been...a little distracted in this tournament from my main goal, andseems like with one distraction comes another, just when it looks like I'll be able to refocus, in comes this GEKIDO group! Oh yeah GEKIDO...Ooooh yeah you're real bad aint ya? You come out here with a pipe, bash my teachers head in! Bash Green Ants head in! YOU ALL THINK YOUR REAL BAD DONT YA! ...*laughs* I cant wait until you stop hiding...so you can try and bash my head in...so I can take that pipe...shove it down your throats, and beat your skulls in, with something worse than a steel pipe pipe...*he brings up a fist* You guys really wanna test me? You will not like the outcome of the road you are going down...Warking...Eddie Kingston...HOLLA AT ME!
Leonard- ...I would say thats a typical Eddie Kingston reaction...
Storm- ...A little bit...but GEKIDO are listening, I wonder if they'll respond...
*Del Reys theme starts up, and out comes Sara looking focused on the match at hand. Se knows whats at stake, and she isn letting anything distract her*
Leonard- Sara of course has had great opponents put in front of her, but none have been able to derail her momentum
Storm- The same can be said for Kingston, its all coming to a head in this match
*Kingston's theme starts, and out he comes looking in in no mood whatsoever*
Leonard- That look is familiar to Eddie Kingston...not happy
Storm- I think the room temperature dropped ten degrees...
*Eddie gets in the ring with Sara, bell rings, and they circle the ring, then...for some reason Eddie's theme starts up again*
Leonard- Woah, technical difficulties here
Storm- We didnt have anything technical wrong to this point to my knowlage...
*Eddie turns* What the...turn that off! *Theirs a spotlight suddenly right up in he balcony section...the hooded figure is right up there in the aisle, Eddie immediatly shouts* ...HEY! *goes to the ropes* GET DOWN HERE! *The figure stares down, and pulls down his hood...and theres his face, its Eddie Kigstons face, staring back at him, even throws up Eddies sign. Eddie roars* YOU PIECE OF CRAP! GET DOWN HERE! *Della immediatly gets a hand around her frying pan, he may be up in the balcony but she wont let another one of her friends get hurt if he tries something.*
Leonard- Oh my, the mystery assailant is back, he's n the balcony section!
Storm- Come on guys you are seeing this go get him!
*His face and body slowly changes back to his own, just staring back at Eddie. The Tecnicos do try and get to that entrance, but its been locked. Eddie is too distracted, Sara gets the upperhand, and attacks from behind to a distracted Kingston, the figure watches stoically*
Leonard- Oh off the distraction, Del Rey doesnt seem to be as invested as Kingston is! She gets the upper hand early!
Storm- What is going on, they should know where he is, they have to be there, get to the balcony!
*The figure goes to the upper deck rail watching the match, morphing into Green Ant a second then morphing back, just enough for Eddie to see that also, Del Rey continuing her beatdown of Eddie, Brings Eddie Up and suplexes him down hard, Eddie rolls away grunting in pain*
Leonard- This man of mystery is getting into Eddies head, and thats a mistake
Storm- Del Rey doesnt seem to care about any of this at the moment. Shes dead focused on the title, as far as shes concerned, Kingstons not focused, and thats not her problem right now
*Sara goes for a cover and doesnt even get a one count, Eddie gets up and forearms Del Rey hard. Kingston quickly runs and Yakuzas a dazed Del Rey out of the ring, points up again* HEY! IM NOT DONE WITH YOU EITHER! *The figure just stares, and morphs into Quack this time, Eddie seeths*
Leonard- Eddie I know you're upset but you are in the ring with Sara Del Rey you cant afford to be distracted!
Storm- I cant blame him, he's taken out Quack, Green Ant, two great friends of Kingston. I can see why Del Rey isnt as distracted, having been a recently reformed BDK member, she hasnt had the greatest experiences with the Tecnicos LATELY, however shes a tecnico again, but her head is more iin it right now...
*Kingston roars and runs leaping through the ropes and Suicide Dives on Del Rey sending her down, gets up and RUNS through the crowd to that upper deck, halfway there however, he's superkicked right in the head but another hooded figure who was waiting for this to happen. Kingston crumbles down limp and blindsided, this new unknown figure gives a thumbs up the balcony figure, he nods back, the figure who just hit Kingstons runs away quickly, and the balcony figure just leans on the rail. Della jumps shocked, that happened on the other side of the arena, there isnt any way she could catch him especially in her state. She grinds her teeth watching this unfold.*
Leonard- OH! What was that?
Storm- They said there was more than one and they just got Kingston! The coubnts starting Eddie, come on!
*Del Rey rolls back in the ring, the ref counts, he's at 15 by the time Eddie even gets up, but Eddie bad leg and all runs, falling oveer the guarail and gets in the ring just before 20, and is met by a rolling kick to the head by Del Rey the second he stands up. Cover 1..2...KICKOUT! Del Rey sighs, the balcony figure just continues to watch*
Leonard- Eddie makes it back but Del Rey had him scouted, Kingstons got to be seeing stars Storm at this point
Storm- Yeah but I know from experience, Kingston can be as knocked as loopy as possible and still hit hard all the same...
*Del Rey gets Eddie up kicking him into the ropes with side kicks to the chest, bringing on the assault. Eddie roars and with all his frustration delivers a big chop back right to her chest, she reels, then he continues, chops chops chops chops CHOPS her into a corner chop...chop...chop...CHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOP! Del Rey falls over limp*
Leonard- Oooooooh...
Storm- I have a feeling that hurts Del Rey a little extra...
*Eddie gets Del Rey up, who counters with a spin kick to his stomach. Sara quickly picks him up showing great strength and powerbombs him hard. Folds him and covers 1...2...KICKOUT! Eddie rolls through and Del Rey goes for a kick, but Kingston grabs her leg and hooks her and flips her over for an Exploder Suplex! Covers 1...2...KICKOUT! Kingston growls, gets Del Rey up, goes for a Uranage Suplex, but Del Rey elbows out of it, gets her head under Eddie's arm and flips Eddie over for a Norhtern Lights Suplex. Sara bridges covering 1...2...KICKOUT! Del Rey groans, the figure in the balcony watches the match, silently studying them*
Leonard- As great as the action is here its so unnerving to see this guy in the balcony seats here just watching this unfold. Why doesnt he just attack? He attacked Quack and Green Ant bluntly, why not Kingston?
Storm- Because I dont think he's going to get away with the same trick three times in a row...unfortunatly, he seems smart...
*Sara gets Eddie up for a Piledriver, Eddie counters out and forearms Del Rey repeatedly, grabs her head in a DDT position, and then lifts her swinging her a bit right down for the Royal FlushDDT. Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Eddie roars as the figure watches intensely*
Leonard- Great Royal Flush DDT by Kingston, he's finally getting his head in the game here, just has to focus
Storm- I think Kingston realized he let these guys get to him and his main goal, and he isnt going to let that happen again...
*Eddie grabs Dey Rey by the hair, and gets her , draping an arm of hers over him, then lifts her and slams her over for a Uranage Suplex, cover 1...2...KICKOUT! Eddie shakes his head annoyed. Kingston grabs Del Rey up again, and slams her down for a SECOND Uranage Suplex. Kingston covers again 1...2...KICKOUT! Kingston pounds the mat*
Leonard- Stay focused Eddie keep the onslaught going
Storm- Del Rey isnt going to go down easy you should know that by now
*Eddie lifts her up, and Del Rey breaks out and delivers a big front kick to his chest, he stumbles comes back and she does it again, Eddie runs at her fulls force, but he runs right into a third one, he rolls through, and runs at her clocking her with a King Lariet! Kinbgston stumbles back up to his feet and brings her up. Kingston hooks her arm around his head screams and lifts her up and down on her head for a Backdrop Suplex! Cover 1...2...KICKOUT! *Eddie yells* AHHH COME ON! *The figure just watches, slowly pacing now*
Leonard- Wow! Usually the Backdrop is enough!
Storm- Not tonight Leonard, not tonight...
*Kingston picks Del Rey up, points to the balcony figure angrily, and swings for the Backfist, but In that momentary distraction, Sara recovers enough to grab Kinston's arm in reflex and quickly hook it along wwith his other arm, lifts him, hooking heis legs around her body, and flips him over for the Royal Butterfly. Kingston lands hard as she covers 1...2...KICKOUT! *Sara is not the one frustrated. The balcony figure crosses his arms, eyes narrowing*
Leonard- OH! The Royal Butterfly doesnt do it Storm!
Storm- Im going to admit I'm shocked at that! Kingston is showing what he's got not just to us but to who has decided to pick a fight with the wrong people!
*Sara picks Eddie up again, goes for a Piledriver, but Eddie gets out of it. Dey Rey goes for a kick, but he blocks, and Backfists her hard. Del Rey falls dazed and falls down, back turned to her as he rolls trying to get up, Sara on the edge of the apron, The official checking Kingston...the figure is gone from the balcony*
Leonard- Oh and a Backfist out of nowhere and that can be the opening that- Wait...where did he go?
Storm- I dont know! I was focused on the action!
*In this moment, theres...a second Del Rey running to the ring, who pulls the other one unceromoniously out of the ring, and takes her place looking drained. Della shouts waving her arms exasperatedly*
Leonard- Oh no...
Storm- Kingston!
*Eddie gets up* Im done with this...*He gets Del Rey by the hair, and she takes her arm and low blows Eddie dead in front of the ref. The ref looks stunned she did that, and he ring the bell for a DQ, Eddie falls over screaming in pain, as the Del Rey slowly transforms back*
*The ref looks confused as this Del Rey proves to be a fake. The fake goes and gets a chair and gets in the ring, fold it around Eddies injured leg*
Leonard- Oh no not the leg!
*Storm is about to go down there*
*He looks like hes going to do something bad, until he turns and is met by a kick straight to the head, sending him right out of the ring by a very angry Del Rey. The figure quickkly rolls out of the ring, then quickly gets out of dodge. NOW Del Rey has a beef with these guys*
Leonard- Del Rey stopped the attack but whats going to happen now?
Storm- Its up to the official now...
*Del Rey turns to him, roars* I dont want to lose that way, RESTART IT! *The official knows better than to argue, especially considering it wasnt her who caused the DQ, and rings the bell*
Leonard- The match is still on!
Storm- But what shaoe can Eddie possibly be in?
*Sara grabs Eddie, gets the chair off his leg as some technicos come out chasing the figure where he goes, its complete mayhem. Sara growls* Im not giving Eddie, or that THING, the satisfaction of winning! *Goes to Piledrive Eddie over the prone chair to REALLY end this, but he gets out and backsfists her hard. Sara plops on her rear eyes spinning, while Eddies eyes are BLAZING, he grabs the chair, puts it in front of her face, and runs and drills her with the Sliding D with the chair right in front of his face!*
Leonard- OOOOOH! SLIDING D TO THE FACE WITH THE CHAIR!
Storm- Should have got that chair out of the ring instead of trying to use it, you think she would have learned from Dasher...
*Del Rey goes limp as Kingston covers 1...2...3! PINFALL! Kingston wins and advances to the final!*
Leonard- And there it is folks, half of our finalist field is filled! Who will the final two be joinign Storm and Kingston, and will GEKIDO ccontinue to strike?
Storm- Not if I have anything to say about it *leaves quickly joining the tecnicos in pursuit
*Eddie shoves off any medical personal that get near him to check on his leg, hes more than angry* GET OFF ME! *He goes to the commentary table on his own, Del Rey is out cold and thats who the medical staff then focus on, the technicos look for the figure, but he cant be found at the moment. Della groans, she almost wishes Mantis was back, because this thing with GEKIDO is getting more and more out of hand by the minute...*
...
