On camera

Scene opens and we see Wolfy and Maniac at the Hoff Wildlife Center, Wolfy is showing Maniac around his own personal zoo. Showing Maniac camels letting Maniac give a camel water out of a water bottle telling him camel facts such as camels don't have water in their humps they have fat in their humps that allow them to go months without food, telling him after he goes through his fat the hump will eventually go limp and go back to normal after eating again. They then make their way to the crocodile enclosure Wolfy grabs a deer leg out of a fridge in a shed next to the crocodile enclosure to prepare to feed his croc.

(Wolfy): So are you ready for Havoc Maniac?

Maniac is all smiles with everything he's taken in. He's currently munching on a bag of popcorn as he nods his head.

Maniac: Definitely, you know I was able to find some footage of Ace from his past matches, and I must say he is quite impressive. But I've been working hard in the gym and in the ring to make sure I'm up to par with my opponent. How about you, buddy? This tag match is no joke, I know you know this, but there's a lot more riding on this than a lot of people realize.

Wolfy opens the croc enclosure and while walking slowly and carefully towards the pond he speaks.

(Wolfy): I’ve been preparing. This croc was a rescue so I even been croc wrestling for working out. I’m excited to give Lazy Butt Goblin just a taste of what he’ll deal with at the Zoo Match and give Skinky Skank a taste of losing that demon, I’m honestly interested in Havoc in general I got a lot of feathers ruffled from Sean, Carl Wheezer, Lazy Butt Goblin, Skinky Skank, I’m really excited to see you with Ace. You have a strategy?

Wolfy Stomps on the ground by the pond and once he does a croc jumps out and Wolfy throws the deer leg into the crocs mouth and backing away safely. Maniac chuckles at Wolfy’s reference to Jimmy Neutron as he takes a few more bites of popcorn.

Maniac: As a matter of fact, I do, but I’d rather not talk about it right now.

Maniac motions at Greg, who is following behind with the camera.

Maniac: What? No Betty White look alike to feed the gators? I’m disappointed. Haha, kidding, of course, but seriously, I know you and Shark know what you guys are doing, but still be careful. Erica is going to be as dangerous as ever, that demon, her monthly flow, plus always having that resting bytch face…

Maniac shudders then burst out laughing.

Maniac: I wish I could be in that match, I’d love to give that mean-spirited, rude, selfish, demonic, horse humping, cok juggling thunder kunt a piece of my mind.

They’d gone about their business not knowing Erica had bought a ticket and walked inside the Hoff Wildlife Center with destruction on her mind.  Security was a joke.  So accustomed to all the excited kids and parents tagging along behind them trying to keep up they hadn’t even check her.  If they did, they’d had found a lighter and what looked like a bottle of water which held gasoline in her pocket.  It didn’t matter, she’d burn this fuking place down and didn’t give a shit if any of Wolfy’s critters made it out or not.

She’d walked around the facility a good half hour before suddenly ducking behind a pillar.  She saw him, she heard him talking.  What the fuk was Wolfy doing here?  Shouldn’t his ass be training, or some shit?  He couldn’t see her, she had to hide.  She turned making her way towards a service door when another voice echoed across the way. As Wolfy turned the corner, Maniac appeared from around the large frond of a palm tree.  This had to be a fuking joke.

Anger boiled inside her. He’d abandoned her for him, this dumpy pendejo that picking up animal shit for a living?  She followed, staying at a distance.  It was easy to mingle in the crowd.  She’d watched as they went from the ca”els all the way to the crocodiles where they are now hearing every word of their conversation that tore her up inside.  She watched Maniac’s VIP treatment as Wolfy demonstrated feeding and Greg got the best camera shots he dared from a distance and a wonderful idea occurred to her, but she’d have to act fast.

As he stood in the doorway to the enclosure Erica grabbed a fire extinguisher from the wall and bashed it into the back of Maniac’s head knocking him inside with Wolfy and slamming the door shut behind them.  She took the extinguisher and broke the door handle off then rammed it into the card access panel on the wall.  Sparks flew from it as the door sealed them inside. And then…not to be disturbed she pulled the fire alarm.

An automated message blared over the speakers asking guests to quickly but safely make their way to the nearest exit and evacuate the center.  Staff took positions all around as confused patrons made their way out.  The fire strobe and alarms blared stirring up the animals, roars, snarls, growls and chirps heard loudly everywhere.  It was just what she wanted. Nobody saw or heard Wolfy and Maniac in the enclosure amidst the chaos and after a few moments…she was alone.  Her eyes blazed red, a faint reflection on the glass as she looked down in the enclosure at Wolfy and Maniac who was coming to his feet holding the back of his head.

(Erica): Quieres ser amigos? Then be friends, be best friends…I don’t care!

The crocodiles appeared highly agitated, the sirens, the flashing strobes, all overloading their senses.  Erica pulled out her phone and start recording, a few tears flowing in her eyes.

(Erica):  I’ll have a Youtube exclusive for your little ##### Mandy at Havoc Maniac.  Everyone can watch the two of you get eaten alive.  I’m gonna make sure the kids watch Wolfy.  What’s the word you teach those little bastards about crocodiles…“Death Roll?” 

Her eyes go to Maniac and he can see her tears.  It’s as if they dissolve the moment they leave her eyes, the burning red like a heat, but the crack in her voice was unmistakable pain.

(Erica):  I trusted you.  I was like a little bird with a broken wing…you know what the did to me, how the treated me and you nourished me, nursed me back to health then shoved me out into the wild. For what…for fans, for him?

She points at Wolfy in a rage.

(Erica):  As if Skinky Skank wasn’t bad enough.  You’ve joined him in calling me names? Llamándome nombres!

She screams the words out in hurt.

(Erica): I’m a joke to you now, probably always was…so stupid, so stupid to think you cared, so stupid to think you loved me….estupida. 

She pulls at clumps of her hair crying out loud before trying to pull herself together as sick grin now on her face.

(Erica): Esta bien! Esta bien!  Everybody’s going to see, everybody’s going to know what’s really inside you now, your lies and your laughs.  Everybody is going to see it when these fukers tear you apart. 

The crocodiles thrash, moving closer to Wolfy and Maniac.

(Wolfy): Shit! Maniac get behind me stay a distance!

Wolfy pushes Maniac back then gets low to the ground looking at the crocs with focus waiting for the crocs to come out of the water.

(Wolfy): don’t stomp your feet. That’s what gets their attention

Still rubbing the back of his head, Maniac looks up at Erica.

Maniac: Spare me Cybil, you wouldn’t know love and decency if it slapped you in the face with its dik. You’ve shown your true side the day you betrayed your friends decide with that demon, not me. And the fact that you so openly embraced it shows that I’m not lying. And when we get out of here…

Maniac looks over at the non-existent camera

Maniac: And that we will kids don’t worry.

Maniac winks then turns back to Erica.

Maniac: I swear I’m going to rip that demon right out of you and send it back to hell, and if you try and stop me, you’ll go with it.

Maniac looks at Wolfy.

Maniac: You got it, Crocodile Dundee, you’re the expert… how the fuk do we get out of this?

Erica looks at Wolfy lay low to the ground and Maniac seek instruction.

(Erica): You don’t! You wanted to pay for your past crimes Maniac? Then lay down like Wolfy and pay. Look at him, didn’t even put up a fuking fight.

She smiles, a crocodile snaps at Greg and he jumps back dropping his camera.

(Wolfy): We stay calm. A panic and stomping feet will make the crocs hungrier than John Pinette and Ralphie May combined. They’ll put our buffet arses out of business!

Once they snap at Greg Wolfy jumps in front of the crocodiles and makes a loud growling noise resembling a crocodile. One of the crocodiles once hearing this immediately turns around and runs back into the water. As for another one it still charges at Wolfy. Wolfy then jumps in the air turning to land on the crocodile’s back. He then struggles with the crocodile for a while getting himself covered in mud from head to toe. Eventually, he gets the upper hand wearing the crocodile out and Wolfy puts his hands on top of the crocodiles top jaws pushing the crocodile’s mouth shut. Wolfy then looks around the enclosure and spots a rope sitting in the one corner and then yells at Maniac.

(Wolfy): fast hand me that rope!

(Erica): Hijo de Puta! No…nooooooo!

Erica screamed, slamming her fist into the glass wall.  How the fuk did he do that?  Wolfy and some goddamn Aquaman shit.  Maniac went for the rope and she was desperate now, reaching into her pocket for what was her original plan.  She splashed the bottle of gasoline into some bushes, up against a wall and threw the rest over at some other open animal containment area.  She didn’t even see what animals were inside.

She flicked her lighter and tossed it setting blaze to the area.  A wave of satisfaction rose as the fire took quick to the live brush, trailed the wall and back across to the open enclosure.  Smoke billowed and the fire suppression system began to blast out water.

One look back into the crocodile enclosure.  Her eyes met Maniac’s and a depth of sadness and pain slammed into her.  His words had cut deep, too deep.  He’d opposed the demon before, opposed her methods, but had held fast to “saving” her.  Still promising them joining together and taking over the business.  All lies!

She coughed as black plumes of smoke now spread all over, the sound of the animals in the facility was beyond loud and staff rushed around trying to corral those they could into the safety of their rear enclosures.  A guard suddenly turned his eyes on her.

(Officer): Hey…you!  What are you?...

Goddamnit he recognized her, she saw it in his face as his eyes went wide, and his hands went for his taser.  She turned and ran.  He caught up quickly.  He wasn’t your pudgy-ass grocery store security guard, but she wasn’t about to let him catch her regardless.  He grabbed her arm, clenching his fingers onto her jacket.  Erica spun around and blasted him in the face with a “Fireball Caliente” (Fireball into the face of her victim, burning and blinding them for a short time.)  She turned and ran to the nearest exit, soon looking like just another person evacuating the facility being escorted back to safety by firemen now on the scene and she disappeared into the gathered crowd outside making her escape.

Wolfy gets the croc subdued and looks at what Erica has done to his zoo

(Wolfy): NOOOOOOO! That stupid bitch!

Wolfy slams into the crocs door breaking the enclosure door breaking out of the enclosure.  He then looks at Maniac giving him a serious look  with his eyes changing to a beast no man has seen before that even made Maniac nervous.

(Wolfy): Don’t worry she won’t be in legal trouble Maniac because at Havoc I’m going to end her.

Wolfy then runs into the flames with no regard to his own safety trying to help anything he can. Maniac stands there for a moment, completely stunned at what he witnessed. He makes his way out and looks around at the chaos that’s spreading throughout the zoo, and as he does, he hears Erica’s words about loving her in his head and more guilt tugs at his heart.

Maniac: Erica…damn.

Maniac pushes the thought to the back of his head as he rushes over to help Wolfy, grabbing another fire extinguisher on the way. Once Maniac reaches Wolfy we see Wolfy standing at the foot of a African Forest Elephant that has been killed by the fire. Wolfy has tears coming down his face is covered in burn marks all over and black from the flames covers him.

(Wolfy): She did this… She butchered one of the most endangered animals… There not even an estimated number how much is around it’s so low… Maniac… I’m going to kill her..

Maniac walks over to Wolfy and kneels down next to him, putting his hand on his shoulder.

Maniac: Wolfy, I’m so sorry about all this, especially your elephant. I know it’s hard, but you need to focus. That demon and Toby both want you pissed off. They want you to be foaming at the mouth and seeing red that way you do something Reckless and make a mistake that way they can capitalize, don’t fall for the games. You don't think I’ve heard what Jeremy’s been saying? Or Sean during his latest sit down interview with Roddy? Or Hans with his constant jabs? Yeah I’ve heard everything and there comes a point in not only your career but in life where you have to stop worrying about what people think, you can’t let other people dictate your life. It’s going to be okay, we’re going to get her, and when we do, we’ll get rid of that demon once and for all. Until then, you have to focus your rage, harness it and then release it when necessary. You know, like maybe an upcoming tag team match at Havoc?

Wolfy stays silent for a moment still processing everything.

(Wolfy): You’re right… during that match the 7 trumpets will be rang. Skank thinks she’s special because she rode the red horse of fire and war but during this tag team match… I’ll be riding the pale horse.

Wolfy stands up to look for more ways to help others as tears are still in his eyes and Maniac quickly follows behind Wolfy to help as the scene fades to black.
