Puppets in wait

[Coffin Puppets]

*The camera fades in on the Coffin Puppets in their locker room. Wulf is sitting in front of an elegant looking chess set, the pieces in disorder as though a game were in progress. He randomly shuffles the cards of his lucky deck as he gazes over the pieces in thought.

Meanwhile, Manticore is in the background lifting hand weights, his Mayhem title laying on the bench beside him. He reaches his twentieth rep before looking over to Wulf.*

Manticore: You planning on any training or are you gonna just play with your toys?

Werwulf: *smirking* My dearest Core, I'm not 'playing', it's called thinking of a strategy.

*Core shakes his head and goes back to his reps.*

Manticore: Why do you need to think of one, I'd say we're doing well enough on our current course. I've got the Mayhem strap back and we're on a collision course with the Tag straps.

Werwulf: Ah, but that is the very reason right there. We must continuously evolve and adapt, as we always have. Don't become complacent, for that will be our downfall.

*He moves one of his pieces finally, gently tipping over the opposing king.*

Werwulf: Check mate...

*He stands and turns to Core who looks up, ready to hear what has been churning in his mind as the camera fades to black.*

[Caden Zicari]

Walking into the locker room still flushed from his victory over Arkum. Caden surveys the cluttered chaos with a grin.

Do you boys need something to do at the PPV. or will you wait a bit longer and hide here playing with yourselves?

A tiny voice is heard floating up from Caden's pocket.



They will hurt you Eric. You may have won here once but you wont beat them. HAHHAHA They are killers, you will be back where you came from in a coma.

Caden drives his hand deep into his pocket retrieving Figaro. Shaking the chia pet still his grass coat matted. He Yells at it.

Shut up Shut up I told you before my name isnt Eric anymore. I will survive this I will beat this two and then move on to the next target. You will see. mark my words.

Jamming the green bastard back from where he got it. Turning to the Puppets once more. A small voice is heard once more.

HAHHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHa whatever Eric see you in the emergency ward. HAHHAHAHHA

[Coffin Puppets]

*Core looks at Caden curiously as Wulf merely stares at his nether region, poking at it and pondering just why it isn't getting any attention now that Caden mentions it, before remembering they have a guest and looking up smirking.*

Manticore: Are you sure you have the right people? I mean, out of four title matches on the card, in some way we are in three. You really wanna go up against us?

*Wulf lays down his deck of cards and moves toward Caden, studying him. As he makes his way around him, his gaze drifts toward his pocket, only to be met by a tiny face staring out at him.

Wulf's brow furrows as it seems as if the little bastard is intentionally staring at him, but he quickly shakes it off and turns to Core.*

Werwulf: Come now, if Mr... Zicari is it, would like to have a little fun at our expense, who are we to deny him.

*He turns back to look directly at Caden.*

Werwulf: Are you sure this is what you want?

[Caden Zicari]

Do not look at me Wulf, for you do not understand what lays within.

Smashing the pocket with his hand Caden looks to his future adversaries.

Yes i would love to test my skills against yours. I would love for you to unleash the same pain that Dark Side had done not long ago. Two on one if you please. Any stip you would like to add will be agreed upon my yours truly. Now i take my leave to prepare for my trial by fire at your skilled and able hands.
