[The lights
in the arena slightly dim, and Warlock's music begins to play,
prompting the crowd to erupt in cheers]
Jim “The Amp” Johnson: It looks
like Warlock is making his way down to the ring!
Warhead: And the fans are loving it
already!
[Warlock walks onto the stage, nodding
and pointing to some of the fans. He moves to the center of the
stage, getting ready to pose, when a hooded figure attacks him from
behind]
Jim “The Amp” Johnson: What the?!
Who is that?!
[The figure picks Warlock up, then
throws him off the stage to the floor below. The figure lowers his
hood, revealing himself to be The Filthy Friar]
Warhead: Of course, it would be The
Filthy Friar!
[The Friar jumps down to the arena
floor, and picks Warlock up. Warlock unleashes a series of punches to
The Filthy Friar, drawing cheers from the crowd. Warlock attempts to
Irish Whip The Friar into the crowd barricade, but the Friar reverses
it, sending Warlock back-first into it. The Filthy Friar finally
picks Warlock up, and slams Warlock through a table. Emerging from
backstage a few seconds later, Benjamin the Blessed appears, holding
a microphone and lit candle]
Jim “The Amp” Johnson: Well you had
to figure that if the Friar was around, Benjamin wouldn't be too far
away.
[Benjamin stands over Warlock, then
starts to pour the hot wax onto his body. Warlock's instincts take
over, and he sits up in pain. Benjamin then smashes the candle over
Warlock's head, knocking him out]
Benjamin: We heard you last week,
Warlock. I was able to respond to you with actions, but now, I want
to respond to you in words. You want the NRWL to stay the same, and
that makes you our most outspoken enemy. We can not have people
speaking against our mission, promoting the lifestyle of the
heathens! You call yourself ”Warlock.” You celebrate the occult
by that very act! This can not be. We will not allow this! The Filthy
Friar will see to it that you are finally destroyed.
Warhead: These guys are insane!
[Benjamin the Blessed looks up from
Warlock, then turns toward the crowd]
Benjamin: You are all witness to
moment! The truth of your cult leader has been unraveled for all to
see! The next time you see Warlock, his music will blast through the
arena. Fire and explosions will burn and shake the surrounding
concrete! You may be inclined to cheer for this man, to make your
voice louder than the artificial sounds around you! But know this:
The loudest your voice can go...will be nothing compared to the
shrills of your soul, as it suffers for following false idols! Di te
incolumem custodiant!
[Benjamin throws the microphone down
and walks away with The Filthy Friar, leaving Warlock lying in the
carnage]
Jim “The Amp” Johnson: I think we
need help out here for Warlock! And who's going to stop the Holy
Duo?!
Warhead: From what we've seen of Warlock so far, I think he'll be volunteering once he's recovered!
