*The scene opens at Havocs end, Erica and Maniac have made their way backstage and they both make their way to Maniac's bus. Before his match Maniac had instructed one of the backstage workers to gather up all Erica's gifts and bring them to his bus where the driver would load them inside himself. As they made their way to the bus they see Mandy who comes over and giving Maniac a hug and a kiss. Erica smiles and nods before making her way to the bus, giving Maniac and Mandy some privacy.*
Mandy: Are you ok baby?
*She runs her hand over his face which causes him to smile and forget about his pain for a moment.*
Maniac: I'm fine baby cakes, nothing the Doc can't fix.
*He laughs and winks at Mandy.*
Maniac: I know you gotta finish up here, I'm going to the bus whenever you get done we'll take off.
*They hug and then share a passionate kiss before the two went their separate ways for now. Mandy heads to find Wisdom to see if there is anything else she needs to cover or anyone she needs to interview before she leaves as the scene fades.*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*We open in Maniac's room on his bus, he's pacing back and forth and shaking his head.*
Maniac: That fuking snake! I can't believe he went and talked about us to that corporate piece of shyt Butch Parker! I'm going to make him tell me EVERYTHING he told Parker and I guarantee he'll regret ever betraying us.
*From behind a voice emerges which causes the hair on the back of Maniac's neck to stand up, a voice that chills Maniac's blood instantly, a voice that is a pure growl, almost demonic.*
DreamMaster:It doesn't matter, he can't stop our plans. It begins at Helloween Harvest and the ritual MUST go perfectly, Remember, all you need to do is mix your blood with that of Matt Miller's which shouldn't be hard given the nature of your match. I'll have all the preparations done beforehand so don't worry about that.
*Maniac doesn't turn around but still nods his head. He hears the DreamMaster getting closer until he's right behind him, Maniac feels a heavy hand on his shoulder and in his peripherals he can see the hand. The hand is pure black and his fingers are extremely long with sharp, razor like nails on the end on each finger. Maniac has never been scared in his life except for now, which is apparent by his entire body shaking. DreamMaster let's out a terrible laugh before speaking.*
DreamMaster: Shhhh, don't be scared my servant. You have served me well since I freed you from your cage, and rewarded you shall be. You did well tonight, as did your little protégé. At Helloween Harvest I'll talk to Butch and you handle Matt Miller.
*Maniac once again says nothing and only nods as the scene fades.*
--------------------------------------
On camera
*The scene opens on Maniacs bus where we find Maniac sitting at the bar, still in his ring gear he is enjoying a Jack and Coke. Sitting next to him is Mandy Banks with a microphone in her hand, Greg already rolling on the camera and the backgroundis set up to be the set of Cash Out.*
Mandy: Mandy Banks here coming to you from the HWA YouTube channel on the set of Cash Out where we have Maniac here after the chaotic ending of Havoc and heading into Helloween Harvest where he'll once again take on Matt Miller, this time in an Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch. Maniac what are your thoughts on Havoc, especially the end that seen you beat Sean Parker by count out after a...controversial ending?
*Maniac sighs, taking a drink from his glass before speaking.*
Maniac: Honestly Mandy I feel horrible about Michelle, I told her to get away from ringside but she didn't listen. That and if Sean wouldn't have moved that would've NEVER happened. I hope you're happy Sean, what happened to Michelle is YOUR fault and not only did it cost you the win but it's going to cost you ALOT more in the end.
*Maniac finishes his drink and makes himself another.*
Maniac: Speaking of costing, boy Hans is this gonna cost you. And I don't mean in just money if you catch my drift.
*Maniac winks at the camera.*
Maniac: No worries though Hans, with me as the Godfather of yours and Erica's child I'll make sure the little one doesn't go without. And don't worry about Vanessa, I'm sure once you leave her for Erica Thane Givens will take her back.
*Maniac laughs as Mandy shakes his head.*
Mandy: Can we move on please? At Helloween Harvest you and Matt Miller are scheduled to face off once again only this time in an Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch. Do you think there will be a winner this time or end like the Asylum match did?
Maniac laughs and takes another drink from his glass.*
Maniac: Oh no, this time there will be a clear winner. Matt and I don't agree on much but I'm sure Matt would agree that this time there MUST be a winner, Matt and I also agree I'm sure on the fact that we're both ready to put this chapter of our careers to a close. So Matt here we are, we couldn't finish it at Art of War inside the Asylum but as I knew you would you came back for more.
*Maniac finishes his drink then sits the glass back down. He gets up from the bar and both Mandy and Greg follow as Maniac heads over to the couch where he sits down, pulls out his cigarettes and lighter, and turns on the TV. He flips through the channels until he stops on Ridiculousness on MTV then pulls out a cigarette and lights it, taking a deep drag off of it before continuing.*
Maniac: I know you're ready Matt, I know you've been preparing for this since you've challenged me. I seen it at Havoc when you and Jeremy came running down to the ring like a couple of knights in shinning armor to save the day, but like always you two were to late. The damage was already done and you couldn't even help Draconis or anyone else so what makes you think you'll win, let alone survive against me in this Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch?
*Maniac takes another drag off his cigarette then ashes it before continuing.*
Maniac: Don't get me wrong Matt, you're a resistant fuker and I applaud you for that. You claim you had me beat at Art of War yet you couldn't finish the job, just like when we first stepped in the ring against one another you thought you were going to defeat me but I proved you wrong then too. You see whats happening Matt? It's an infinite loop of you chasing me in an eternal battle of good versus evil, can you break the cycle or is it the cat and mouse game for all eternity? As always I look forward to your response and our match at Helloween Harvest. Give Jeremy my love, see you soon!
*Maniac winks as he waves at the camera.*
Maniac: Oh yes, one more piece of business...
*Maniac reaches into his pocket and pulls out a roll of money and holds in front of the camera.*
Maniac: Jason, I have your money you disrespectful little shyt. Problem is, I'm not aloud to get close to give it to you so if you want your money looks like you're going to have to come get it once we're in Boston or you don't get it at all.
*Just before Maniac can say another word the DreamMaster speaks from seemingly out of nowhere which causes Mandy, Maniac, and Greg to freeze in fear. His voice sounds like a growl, almost demonic.*
DreamMaster: PARKER, THE HARVEST COMMETH AND YOU SHALL WITNESS THE BEGINNING OF THE END!
*All three remain frozen in fear as the scene fades to black. *
