[ As the scene begins, we see Image standing in an open doorway in one of the back hallways of the W2K Arena. She is talking to someone inside the room, but we cannot see who it is. However, we can hear a little of what Image is saying. ]

Image: "Did you hear about what happened to them? No, I don’t know who it was that did it, but I’d like to find out so I can shake their hand. Hell, I’d buy them dinner if they’d let me."

There is a brief pause as Image listens intently to whomever is inside the room.

Image: "It’s payback time, don’t ya think? They’ve had their fun, now let’s have some of our own. The difference is, though, we’re a lot more vicious than those two could ever dream of being. What’s that? Sure; by all means. Knock your socks off, kiddo! I’d be honored to have you put your own little personal touch on things. You are one sick, twisted individual. God, I love how you think!"

 

[ The camera focuses on Image’s sinister smirk as the scene fades out. ]

Macklin: "The W2K Championess is planning dire things for the contenders, Johnny."

Askin: "I think Amber's learning those dire things. Can you believe what happened this week?'

Macklin: "It feels like the days of old but I can't say I'm feeling nostalgic about it. Sick, twisted things and you have to wonder what's going to go down with a 'female' Dangerously running around."

Askin: "But that's just it, we DO have a female Dangerously running around- and her name is Terri lamin and she's coming up later tonight. But I do think right now, it's Amber versus Summer Stratus..."

Askin: "That’s two very attractive individuals standing that ring, Eddie. And they’re both ready to earn that Championess Title shot."

Macklin: "No doubt, Johnny. No doubt at all. This could be a fast paced match, especially the high-flying style that Summer Stratus has been using for most her career. But of course with Amber Michaels adopting Dangerously’s old style, this match could be slowed down to a pace where Amber can be quite methodical in her offence."

Askin: "Well we’ll see Eddie!!"

Macklin: "There goes the bell, and we start off her�?This is a Mini Tournament match, Ladies and Gentlemen. The Winner be one of the challengers as Image Johnson defends her Championess title at a coming RAGE."

Askin: "Neither seem eager to dive in, Eddie. Which surprises me."

Macklin: "Well it’s not like they’re best friends, so I agree with you there Eddie. I thought these women would be ready to get it on straight aw-OH! Big Right hand by Amber Michaels! Knocking Summer for six�?Stratus is back against the ropes, in trouble right from the off as Amber lays down a VICIOUS OVERHAND CHOP!!... A Massive "Whooo!" greets that move, as this San Antonio crowd start to enjoy Amber’s early beat-down on the Canadian, Summer Stratus."

Askin: "Indeed, Summer’s not very much like her sister attitude wise."

Macklin: "They’re both hot though-OHHHH!!!! Flat-Faced DDT.. nailed by Amber Michaels! Amber makes an early cover!.. ONE!.. TWO!.. Oh Summer gets that shoulder up, and that was a CLOSE FALL�?so early in the match, Johnny?"

Askin: "Yeah I’m surprised as well. But Summer’s no slouch, I’m sure she’ll get back into this one."

Macklin: "Now Amber drags Summer up by the hair, viciously, taking a few lessons for Nic of course. You can see a lot of similarities there, and I’m sure we’ll continue to see them�?Oooph! Summer’s clotheslined into the turnbuckle there�?Amber follows up WITH A SHORT CLOTHESLINE IN THE CORNER!... Amber hooks her arm up under Summer’s arm�? Hip Toss!!"

Askin: "Look at her face, Eddie. She wants this."

Macklin: "Well here’s Amber now, backing up onto the ropes�?Jogging forward�?a Pinpoint KNEE DROP On Summer’s shoulder there! There’s that methodical motion I was referring too earlier Johnny."

Askin: "Well Summer’s getting the full brunt of it right now, Macklin."

Macklin: "Amber whips Summer cleanly into the ropes�?Going for another Clothesline-oh, no Summer ducks it.. nailing the ropes behind Amber there…�?Michaels turns round, and gets nailed with the RUNNING CROSS-BODY! Great ‘come back�?move by Summer Stratus there, using her quickness to great effect."

Askin: "What did I tell ya? Huh, Eddie?!"

Macklin: "Amber gets right back up though, but Stratus is there of course�?stiff toe kick to Ambers gut there�?Ooph! Downward Spiral!! Nailed by Summer Stratus there!"

Askin: "Argh! Amber’s pretty face just nailed that mat!"

Macklin: "Summer pins those shoulders to the mat, looking to get it over with early- ONE!.. TWO!.. Near fall!! Amber just kicked out there, I thought that was going to be over. A long time two count, Johnny."

Askin: "Yeah the Referee maybe giving Amber favours ther-�?

Macklin: "Hold on-OH!! Vicious stomp on Ambers NOSE there. Summer’s really taking it to Dangerouslys girlfriend here, giving her a rough time. Although did new honestly expect less?... Ooph! Another vile stomp to the face, and Amber’s trying to crawl to the ropes here for some relief."

Askin: "She wont get any, Eddie!"

Macklin: "Correct! Summer’s grabbed her foot here, she’s dragging Amber back into the centre of the ring�?Looks like she’s gonna work on that right leg as she straightens it out�?DROPPING THE ELBOW! Oooph, painful Leg Lock in place here. Amber Michaels is having a torrid time, and she may even tap out right here, Johnny."

Askin: "Hmm, I don’t know. If NED’s taught her anything, it’s probably the will to win, Macklin. Never give the fight. All that good stuff…………�?. OHH!"

Macklin: "Or maybe it’s how to kick your opponent in the back of the fricken�?head!! What a shot by Amber Michaels�?that free leg doing nothing one second, then nailed Summer the next. Stratus is having trouble here, she probably has a helluva migraine, Johnny."

Askin: "I’ll come to her aid, for sure."

Macklin: "Amber’s back up here�?BUT SUMMERS NOT!!!! Super Kick by Amber Michaels! That was power, Johnny! Woah!"

Askin: "Another Dangerously trait�?It was rather sloppy, Eddie. Dangerously used to nail that Kick, he’d almost end up falling over cause of the effort and power he’d put in."

Macklin: "Gah! Looks like Amber won’t be catching a break here, as the sheer force has sent Summer Stratus to the outside. No quick cover here, folks!"

Askin: "Well Amber’s gotta go get her back in the ring as soon as she can, Eddie. Else she’ll have missed this golden opportunity to secure the win."

Macklin: "There she goes�?Uh, Summer’s like dead weight here�?The slightly lighter Amber’s having trouble dragging her up. Summer seems almost knocked out, which is incredible. There we go, Johnny�? Summer’s in�?Amber rolls in!... Hooking the leg!"

Askin: "Here we go!"

Macklin: "ONE!... TWO!... THR-AWW!! Bad break for Amber Michaels, Johnny. Summer was too close to the ropes, she got that free foot on their Johnny. Good ring sense by Stratus."

Askin: "She knows where she is in the squared circle, Eddie. If she didn’t, she damn sure wouldn’t be in this company."

Macklin: "Michaels is frustrated, and I don’t blame her. She’s asking herself how she can beat this woman, on the night, Johnny. And at the moment, I’m struggling to find an answer."

Askin: "Where there’s a will, there’s a way. That’s what I say!"

Macklin: "Well Michaels is laying down a beating here on Summer Stratus�?The Crowd seems to be loving it though.. oh and succession of BIG, BIG right hands by Amber. Straight to Summers jaw! Amber goes for a irish whip, oh! It’s reversed this time! Michaels heads into the ropes at a quick pace�?Summer’s waiting in the middle though�?she nails a DROP KICK ON AMBER MICHAELS!!"

Askin: "Ohhhhhhh!!!! Super leap by Stratus!"

Macklin: "Amber’s in the corner, trying to get up�?but she’s not even facing the ring, Johnny! Stratus is right back up�? Oh, she bursts toward Amber!... SLAMMING AMBERS FACE-FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLE! What impact! We saw Michael’s face literally BOUNCE off that corner�?Oh!! Summer locks her arms round Amber’s waist�?pulling back for the-�?

Askin: "SUMMER BREEZE!!!"

Macklin: "A Bridged cover, Johnny!.. ONE!... TWO!... THREE!!! It’s over right here!! Summer secures the win, and n advance in this mini tourney...!!"

Askin: "Great effort by both these women, Eddie. It got really physical there, almost vicious."

[ FLASH! As we head backstage with the camera, and find a little nook where Jon Reed and "May" Nard are finding alittle out-of-the-way place. They're giggling like school children. ]

Reed: "May, i know you wanted me to move in with you, but I've been talking with Johnny."

Maynard: "You have, Precious?"

Reed: "Yeah, he said that's like buying a cow when you could go out and buy milk all you want, and I should see if I leven like the cow first. Like a test drive."

Maynard: "How do you test drive a cow?"

Reed: "We're gonna haveta do it. Right here, right now."

Maynard: "... sigh. Well, I suppose if it'll make you- and Johnny- happy, then I suppose so."

[ Several seconds of silence, and we pull out to the hall where we hear a SHRILL scream... ]

Reed: "OY MY GOD! YOU HAVE A RODNEY!"

Maynard: "Well, yes, I thought you knew, prescious-"

Reed: "DONT CALL ME THAT YOU MAN-WOMAN! AHHHHHH! I can't believe I'vce been sucking face with a GUY!!!! AH!!"

Maynard: "I thought we were in love-"

Reed: "SHUT UP SHUT UP! AHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[ Reed makes a run for it, leaving Maynard there. He runs into Johnny Fame- who catches him- ]

Fame: "What's wrong, man?!"

Reed: "I was about to totally do May!"

Fame: "Oh yeah? you dog you."

Reed: "Yeah, chicks dig me like that only- only, Johnny..."

Fame: "Yeah?"

Reed: "MAY IS A GUY!"

Fame: "She got a sex exchange? How'd she fit that in on Labor Day weekend?"

Reed: "ITS NOT FUNNY!"

Fame: "I know, I've had this bad cough since Wednesday, and I can't get a doctor to answer my calls. Assholes!"

[ Reed shakes Johnny violently, and slaps him. ]

Reed: "YOU IDIOT SHE WAS ALWAYS A HE!"

Fame: "Ew... dude, are you trying to tell me you're gay?"

Reed: "HE TRICKED ME! It's a government conspiracy... they know about the nukes Hamid asked us about-"

Fame: "We ARE nuclear... heh?"

[ High five! ]

Reed: "But, Johnny, you can't tell anyone.... you gotta take care of this."

Fame: "Me?"

Reed: "Yeah, You. You're my best friend, you gotta do something. I can't ever face May- uh, Maynard ever again. you gotta sweep this under the carpet."

Fame: "It might take all my Samurai powers, if she, er, he, was able to fool you into thinking she , er, he was a chick, then he's good. Maybe too good. But, I'll see what I can do."

[ Fame puts his shades on, and smiles as he walks off. ]

Askin: "EWWWWWWWWW, man we knew that was coming..."
