Morning Star Temple, Venus

VIDCAM: GWFZ wrestler Pride bumps into American Guy in the locker room area.

American Guy: What are you doing here?

Pride: I’m looking for Mark.

American Guy: Figures. It’s bad enough he signed us to wrestle in a 6-man tag match with you in the GWFZ. Now he’s inviting you to come backstage at GalaxyMania.

Pride: Well, actually he didn’t invite me. Star Warrior invited all the GWFZ trainees to the show, and except for Ensor, we’re all here.

American Guy (sarcastically): Yea for you guys. You get to watch real wrestlers up close. So what exactly are you doing backstage?

Pride: I was just stopping by to say hi to Mark and wish him luck in the battle royal.

American Guy: Whatever.

Cuddley Claw (yawning): Hello again, sweetheart.

Lorelei: Hey Claw!

Cuddley Claw winks at Lorelei, walks over to the other side of the locker room, and falls asleep in a chair.

Valour: Sweetheart? What was that all about? How do you know that weirdo?

Lorelei: I met him when I wrestled at that GWFZ show last week. And he’s not weird.

VIDCAM: Commissioner Massif is sitting behind his desk when GWFZ jobber Hegemony walks in.

Hegemony: Mr. Commissioner Massif, sir, I hereby proclaim my immediate availability to become an active participant in the GWF.

Massif: Who the hell are you?

Hegemony: I’m Hegemony, the most intellectual wrestler in the GWFZ, and soon to be the GWF.

Massif: Wait a minute, aren’t you’re that annoying little punk that never shuts up?

Hegemony: I do proclaim sir, that is an incorrect assessment. I am needed here in the GWF. I’m smart, I use big words!

Massif: Good for you Mrs. Dictionary. Now get the hell out of my office!

Hegemony: Mr. Massif, you lack tranquility. I can…

An angry Massif gets up out of his chair and the cowardly Hegemony quickly makes his escape! As Hegemony heads down the hallway away from the Commissioner’s office, Dead Ringer walks up behind him.

Dead Ringer: Look at me!

A startled Hegemony turns around.

Dead Ringer: You’re pathetic!!

Dead Ringer then grabs Hegemony and delivers SEVEN YEARS BACK LUCK before depositing him in a nearby trash container!!!

VIDCAM: Swarm encounters Assassin X.

Assassin X: Fear me Swarm. I am a well-renowned inter-galactic assassin.

Swarm (laughing): You’re an inter-galactic jackass.

Assassin X: Be careful Swarm, I am a dangerous, dangerous man!

Swarm: (laughing harder): Yeah, sure you are. You really have me scared.

Swarm takes a step toward Assassin X, who immediately shrinks away. Swarm grabs the GWFZ newcomer and clocks him with a right hook. Assassin X drops instantly and begins whimpering like a little girl.

VIDCAM: The backstage catering room.

Numerous GWF stars of the past and present are hanging out in the room, which has several large holovision screens hanging on the wall so everyone can follow the action in the ring.

Star Warrior, Alpha Force, Chaos, Janus and Matador of M83 are enjoying a laugh in one corner of the room.

Max Shield, Lord Nexus, Tristan and The Legacy are sitting together at a table in the opposite corner talking.

The Surgeon walks into the room and begins to get a plate of food, when he spies Tristan. The young Titan looks up and sees Surgeon eying him. The Surgeon then makes a throat-slitting gesture to Tristan, before quickly tossing more food on his plate and leaving the room.


The Master Race and Rage & Paralyze are in the ring for their match. Just before the match gets underway, Bloodline and Encubus make their way down to the ring.

Encubus: Sorry to delay the start of this epic battle, but I’ve got a little information you all might find interesting. Bloodline and I have been talking to Massif in the back, and since we don’t have a match tonight, he agreed to our proposal. Tell ‘em, Bloodline.

Bloodline: Whoever leaves this ring as the champions, gets to face us on WarZone!

Encubus: And just for the fun of it, we’re going to sit right at ringside and watch you four go at it. And sorry to say, whoever is lucky enough to leave with the belts, won’t have them for long.

NB Card 79 - GWF WARZONE
Astral Gardens, Fomalhaut

VIDCAM: Backstage before the show.

Ensor: I should have been there. Maybe I could have done something.

Tauran: There’s nothing you could have done. And you’ve got to get over your disappointment at Star Warrior. It’s getting in the way of your training.

Ensor: I know, but I just couldn’t bring myself to come to GalaxyMania with him. It would have been betraying my principles.

Tauran: No one is perfect, Ensor. Just because Star Warrior was your hero as a child doesn’t mean he is infallible as a human being. We all have things we wish we hadn’t done. You can’t hold Star Warrior to a higher standard.

Ensor: I understand what you’re saying, but it’s not that easy.

Tauran: Anyway, so Endgame’s out of action for awhile, leaving us 1 man short. Are you up to filling in?

Ensor: Am I ever! Joining the FDF is my dream!

Tauran: I knew you’d jump at the chance to help.

Ensor: I’d do anything for Endgame. He’s my true hero now.

Tauran: You’re going to take his place tonight against Sly Drury. Nothing like jumping into your first GWF match against a former champ.

Ensor: I’ll be ready. Win or lose, I’ll give it my best shot. I would never let the FDF down.

Shortly thereafter, Monolith's attempt at THE END OF ALL THINGS is successful, and he gets the win. (**** 1/2)

- Encubus starts things off with Rage and gains the upper hand. A brief tag in to Bloodline, who hits a weak COSMIC BIG BANG that fails to result in a pinfall. Encubus tags back in, and with Rage reeling, takes the match to the outside, where he gets himself disqualified. (**)

VIDCAM: The FDF are conversing in the backstage hallway.

Endgame: I really appreciate you stepping up and filling in for me while I was injured, Ensor.

Ensor: It was an honor, Endgame.

Tauran: You really did a great job; you have tons of potential.

Anivar: And beating Sly Drury, that was awesome!

Ensor: Thanks guys, this has been a cool experience. I’ll go back to the GWFZ and keep working and hopefully I’ll be back in the GWF soon.

Sly Drury suddenly appears from out of nowhere.

Sly Drury: Wait just a damn minute, junior.

Ensor: What?

Sly Drury: You’ve got one thing right kid; you are going back to the GWFZ and probably for good. However, before you return to the minor leagues where you belong, you and I have a little unfinished business to attend to. So, I had a little chat with good old Commissioner Massif and he wisely granted my request.

Tauran: What are you talking about, Drury?

Anivar: Yeah, get to the point before the enforcer goes into action.

Sly Drury: Enforcer? Haha, some enforcer. But fine, I’ll get to the point. At Cosmic Clash, it’s going to be Sly Drury versus Ensor, if you’ve got the guts, kid. It’ll be the beginning, and the end, of your GWF career. You’re going back to the GWFZ all right, but I’ll be sending you back in a wheelchair.
