_______________________________________________________________


Colburn: Our next match is a little different. It doesn't take place here
        in the arena, but in an abondoned warehouse near the NY 
        waterfront. To accomodate this, we have a special screen.

McBride: That's right. The screen is about the size of one of our walls, 
        and here it comes.

(A VERY large screen is lowered into place in front of the Havoc
 Viewscreen. It hides the stage completely. Some of the fans closest to
 the stage move back. The screen flickers on to a helicopter view of the 
 abondoned warehouse. Below the helicopter dangles a cage like in
 Jurassic Park.  It rattles occasionally as the helicopter descends.)

McBride: I think Superbeast is a little anxious, don't you?

Colburn:  No, really? What makes you say that?

McBride: Oh shut up.

(In front of the warehouse, DAND is driving a tow truck. He is pulling a
 dumpster full of weapons behind it.He disappears into the warehouse. The 
 helicopter continues lowering until the cage hits the ground. The cage 
 rattles even more now. The cam-man is lowered out of the helicopter on 
 a cable and proceeds to put on some sort of heat resistant suit. A 
 referee is nearby, dressed in the same get up. A fire truck is stationed 
 near the warehouse and Gothic is pulling out the hose. Since their is no
 fire hydrant nearby for the truck, they have the other hose in the 
 nearby water. All preparations are complete and the ref and the cam-man
 proceed into the warehouse. The cage is opened and Superbeast runs out
 of it and runs into the warehouse. He passes right by the camera, his
 eyes are wild but focused. Everyone is in the warehouse and Gothic 
 signals for the warehouse to be lit up. Someone pulls out a flare gun 
 and fires it at the warehouse. The warehouse erupts in flames.)

In the arena, the bell rings, and the audience automatically begins to
cheer.

McBride:  I guess they must have doused the warehouse with gas beforehand.

Colburn: Who cares? The important thing is that DAND and Superbeast are 
        already going at it. Superbeast jumped on him and is now pounding 
        on his face.  DAND must not have been expecting him so soon.

McBride: Superbeast picks up DAND and whips him into the side of the
        truck.  He then nails him with the Call of the Wild.  DAND gets
        the wind knocked out of him and Superbeast goes to the dumpster
        of weapons.

Colburn: Well, he's not wasting anytime now is he?  He jumps into the
        dumpster and emerges with a 2x4. DAND has caught his breath and
        is running at the dumpster. Superbeast sees him coming and leaps 
        off the dumpster, hitting DAND in the head with the 2x4.

McBride: It just broke over his head, and DAND isn't even fazed.  DAND
        jumps onto the rim of the dumpster. Superbeast gets back up and
        DAND moonsaults him from the dumpster.

Colburn: Doesn't really affect them too much as they are both back up 
        and diving for weapons. Superbeast grabs another 2x4 and DAND 
        grabs a metal bar of some kind.

McBride: Superbeast swings and nails DAND in the head again. But DAND 
        just shrugs it off and then swings the metal bar at Superbeast.
        Superbeast takes it right in the jaw.

Colburn: Wow, he didn't even fall down. DAND swings again but Superbeast
        dodges and then spears DAND into the dumpster.

McBride: I think DAND felt that one. He's rubbing the back of his head. 
        Superbeast grabs the metal bar and swings it at DAND.  DAND 
        dodges and the metal bar smacks into the side of the dumpster.

Colburn: Quite a resounding ping from that impact. DAND now, up on the
        dumpster again.  He grabs a chair out of the dumpster and throws 
        it at Superbeast. Superbeast bats it out of the way, but DAND
        catches him by surprise with a missile dropkick. Superbeast is
        thrown backward and drops his metal bar.

McBride: DAND up on the truck this time, goes for a moonsault but
        Superbeast moves and DAND eats a bit of floor.

Colburn: Superbeast capitalizing and picks DAND up and whips him into 
        the dumpster.  DAND bounces off the dumpster and falls to the
        ground.

McBride: Superbeast runs up to the dumpster and grabs the edge. He jumps 
        up a bit then slams his feet down on DAND's chest. He begins to 
        stomp repeatedly on DAND's chest, roaring like a wild animal. He 
        stops and then picks DAND up. He Gorilla presses DAND onto the 
        dumpster.

Colburn: What's he up to? He's throwing some of the weapons out onto the
        floor. Uh oh, he's stuffing DAND into the dumpster.

McBride: Superbeast closes the lid of the dumpster and then gets into the
        driver's seat of the truck. He starts it up and then starts 
        driving around the warehouse.

Colburn: He's gaining speed by going around in a circle. The dumpster is 
        still behind the truck. Oh God! Superbeast just pointed the truck
        at one of the walls and floored it! He's gonna ram into the wall!

McBride: That truck will explode as soon as it hits the burning wall! 
        What's he thinking!?

Colburn: Wait! The lid of the dumpster just opened and DAND jumped out.
        He rolls for a bit and then is on his feet.

McBride: I think Superbeast noticed because he jumped out of the truck. 
        The truck keeps going and hits the wall. The dumpster rams into
        the back of the truck.

Colburn: Superbeast is running toward DAND, but wait, the truck just 
        exploded and sent the dumpster flying through the air. Superbeast 
        turns around just in time to get out of the way of it. DAND also
        has to roll out of it's way.

McBride: That had some height on it. The dumpster lands and flips a bit. 
        The weapons are flying out of it left and right. It finally stops
        rolling and sliding.

Colburn: DAND wastes no time in running after a weapon. Superbeast runs 
        after him. DAND climbs up onto the dumpster, both lids are 
        closed now. Superbeast jumps up onto the dumpster and they begin 
        to slug it out.

McBride: Both men exchanging lefts and rights, their noses are bleeding 
        from all the punches. DAND wins out with a solid uppercut to 
        Superbeast's jaw.

Colburn: DAND now opens one of the lids and grabs Superbeast. What 
        the? He's got him set up for the Atom Bomb. He jumps down into
        the dumpster, good God, he might crack Superbeast's skull in 
        half.

(The camera goes up to the dumpster and peers in, DAND is covering
 Superbeast and the ref jumps into the dumpster.)

McBride: The ref is having trouble finding a place to count. He's 
        decided to use the side of the dumpster...1...2...3. That's it!
        DAND has won. The bell is ringing and Gothic is dousing the fire.

Colburn: That was an awesome match. DAND manages to stagger out of the
        dumpster and a man runs in and hands him his belt. DAND's hugging
        his belt now. What a show.  These two guys are definitely hardcore
        to the core.
