SCENE ONE - The Ghost Hunt
(The scene fades up in the dark of night, looks to be about 10PM at least. It is outside of an old, abandoned building... the stuff of nightmares and stories no doubt! In front of hte building stood Dynamite and Marcus Cage. Marcus had a video camera in his hands, and a backpack with other items in it on his back. Dynamite had a digital camera in his hands. He had a look of concern on his face.)
]Dynamite: Are you... sure about this?
]Marcus Cage: Of course I am! Have I ever steered you wrong... ya know what... don't answer that.
]Dynamite: I just don't have a good feeling about this.
]Marcus Cage: Why?
]Dynamite: I just... don't.
(Marcus grinned as something came to mind)
]Marcus Cage: You're afraid of ghosts!
]Dynamite: I'm not afraid of ghosts. I just prefer to be able to SEE something if it's gonna hit me.
]Marcus Cage: Oh juice up and shush. We're doing this thing.
]Dynamite: I just don't see what this has to do with our PWP match?
]Marcus Cage: It's doesn't, really! I just want to see you get the piss scared out of you. I'ts gonna get us ready for the unkown variable. The stuff that we can't prepare for.
]Dynamite: You just pulled that out of your ass... didn't you?
]Marcus Cage: Don't be gross, dude. Why you so worried about things coming out of my ass. You should be worried about what is going to be GOING up your ass.
]Dynamite: Ummmm...
]Marcus Cage: You're gonna be overjuiced one day, get mad, hulk smash, and kill some one. It's inevitable. Then you're gonna go to jail and be some one's bitch.
]Dynamite: You are really stretching, aren't you.
]Marcus Cage: Just shut up and let's go catch a ghost.
(Dynamite shrugged as the two walked into the building. They walked through the halls slowly. It was dark and at times it was hard to see the two of them.)
]Dynamite: We should leave.
]Marcus Cage: Stop being a bitch.
(They walked into an empty room. They stood in the middle. Marcus took out a mini recorder and turned it on.)
]Marcus Cage: Ok lets do a little EVP session. You go sit over there, and i'll sit over here. Keep taking pictures and I'll run the video camera. We're gonna catch something, I just know it!
(Dynamite did as instructed and Marcus put the recorder down in the middle of the room.)
]Marcus Cage: If there is anyone here with us, my name is Marcus and this is my partner, Dynamite.
]Dynamite: Tag team partner. Not "partner" partner.
]Marcus Cage: Don't be gay, dude. Anyways. We aren't here to hurt you. We want to communicate with you. There's a recorder in the middle of the room if you want to say anything. We're going to ask you some questions.
(A small scraping sound was heard, and Dynamite jumped a few feet.)
]Dynamite: WHAT WAS THAT???
]Marcus Cage: Chill... I moved my foot and it moved a rock. Is there anyone here with us? If there is some one with us, please make a noise or move an object to let us know you're here. If you want, you can smack Dynamite for being a little bitch.
]Dynamite: DUDE!
]Marcus Cage: Fine, he's being a bitch so don't smack him hard.
]Dynamite: I still don't see why we are sitting here trying to catch something that probably doesn't even exist... when we should be in the gym working out for our match.
]Marcus Cage: You are always focused on working out, and going to the gym. We'll be fine. I've been actively wrestling the last few months. YOU on the other hand... are looking a little chunky, my friend.
]Dynamite: AM NOT!
]Marcus Cage: Stop yelling! You'll scare away the ghost!
(Dynamite grumbled a little bit, out of frustration. He wanted to be preparing for this match, but Marcus was being his typical self.)
]Dynamite: Do we even know anything about these two? We could be using this time to get to know our opponents. Look up some of their work.
]Marcus Cage: Well we know that Jay is retiring. Dunno what that has to do with anything. But I digress. This is not the time and place, dude.
]Dynamite: And why not? I mean didn't Jay say something about his tag team partner is one of the men who turned on him?
]Marcus Cage: I think so. Half of what he said went in one ear and out the other, honestly.
]Dynamite: That's gotta be rough. Some one you think is your best friend... your brother... just turns his back on you and runs you out of a company? Do you know what I would do if you did that to me?
]Marcus Cage: Hulk smash?
]Dynamite: Exactly. I'd kick your ass.
]Marcus Cage: You'd have to catch me first, Mr I'm-too-juiced-up-to-run-fast.
]Dynamite: You're not seeing the point here. Jay is in a very, VERY, delicate state of mind. He's giving up the business he loves...
]Marcus Cage: Like a pussy...
]Dynamite: ... Because some one betrayed him. And having to deal with that betrayal, and being alone. Things like that can really mess up a guy in the head.
]Marcus Cage: He was already messed up to team up with a guy named after a gross, failed Mt Dew product.
(Before Dynamite could say anything else, they heard something in the hallway. Marcus jumps to his feet excited and grabs the recorder from the middle of the room. He rushes into the hallway to try and find what the noise was. Dynamite follows.)
]Marcus Cage: DUDE!
]Dynamite: What was it?
]Marcus Cage: I don't know! It sounded like a big thud. This is so exciting!
]Dynamite: Yeah... exciting...
]Marcus Cage: You are being a real downer. Look, I know you'd rather be at the gym, and we still have plenty of time for doing that later. Right now... I'm gonna catch this fucker!
(Marcus starts pointing the camera down the hallway while Dynamite leaned against a wall. Suddenly, Dynamite heard a sound by his head. This freaked him out and he began to run as fast as he could down the hall and out of the building screaming "FUCK THIS SHIT" over and over again. Marcus stood there, doubled over in laughter.)
]Marcus Cage: Well... maybe he CAN catch me.
(The scene faded with a close up of Marcus laughing.)
SCENE TWO - BBQ
(The scene fades up this time in the Buffalo, NY backyard of Dynamite. He was running the grill, cooking up some burgers and hot dogs. In the yard, Marcus was playing catch with Dynamite's 6 year old son, Jayne. Dynamite's fiance, Lola Heart, brings out a plate full of fruits and sets them down on a picnic table.)
]Lola Heart: Are you boys thirsty?
]Jayne: Yes, mommy. Can I have a Sunny D?
]Lola Heart: Sure, sweety. Do you two want anything?
]Marcus Cage: Mommy, can I have a Mt Dew?
(Lola shook her head a little with a chuckle.)
]Lola Heart: Sure, Marcus.
]Dynamite: I'll just take a bottle of water.
]Marcus Cage: That's so lame.
]Dynamite: Shut up, or you get a burnt hot dog.
]Marcus Cage: And if you're not careful... we are ALL going to have burnt hot dogs!
(Dynamite turned around quickly, to see the hot dogs were starting to burn. He quickly flipped them over)
]Dynamite: DAMNIT!
(Lola went in and came back out with their drinks.)
]Lola Heart: So when is this big match you two have?
]Dynamite: July 29th in Texas.
]Lola Heart: Oh that sounds fun.
]Jayne: Can I come too, daddy and uncle marcus???
(Dynamite and Jayne both looked at Lola, who didn't look very happy with being asked.)
]Marcus Cage: PLEEEEEEEEEEASE... how can you say NO to THIS face???
(He picked up Jayne and held him at eye level with Lola. Jayne then, as if on cue, put on the cutest pouty face. Marcus then pops his head off to the side making a matching pouty face.)
]Marcus Cage: PWEEEEEASE TO THE BESTEST MOMMY EVER!
(Lola sighed.)
]Lola Heart: Oh I guess.
Marcus and
]Jayne: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
]Lola Heart: So, tell me a little bit more about these two guys you two are supposed to face.
]Dynamite: Well, we don't know much. Their names are Jay Wilson and Amp.
]Lola Heart: Amp?
]Marcus Cage: Yes, like that sucky energy drink.
]Dynamite: We do know that they are, or should I say were, best friends. And then Amp turned his back on Jay.
]Lola Heart: Why?
]Marcus Cage: Don't know. He kind of bounced around in his promo.
]Dynamite: Yeah, in one breath he talks about Amp being the best partner. In another breath he talks about how he doesn't even know if he's going to show up, and he also mentioned that Amp seemed to be one of the guys who turned on him to the point he is going to leave the business.
]Marcus Cage: I know, we get it. You got butt hurt by someone you trusted. In a business where jealousy always exists and friends become enemies, and enemies become allies... you got betrayed and want to leave the world of wrestling. Funny how that works.
]Dynamite: He seems to be confused on the way this sport works. I remember when YOU were flipping out on your friends, and allying yourself with Center Stage. You turned on your friends, and I had to beat some sense into you, to bring you back.
]Marcus Cage: I try to forget about that part of my career.
]Dynamite: The point is, YOU didn't quit. YOU didn't walk away from it all. Neither did the people you turned on. It took you a while, but you made ammends for all the wrongs you did. Jay... I don't know if he is able to handle the pressure. He may be a big shot within his small circle of friends... or ex friends as it seems, but when the going got tough, he retired.
]Marcus Cage: And what about all that talk about being dangerous. If I had a nickle for everytime I heard generic Joe Shmoe talk about being dangerous and how badass they are when they are backed into a corner... I would have a large sock full of nickels to beat him with.
]Dynamite: I'd pay to see that. But hte point that is trying to be made here is that no matter what... we never quit.
]Marcus Cage: Well you took some time off, ya know, baby momma drama.
(Lola glared over at Marcus for a second and he just grinned.)
]Dynamite: And that no matter what Jay and Amp bring our way, we will be able to win. We will take anything they throw our way, and toss it back ten fold. It's just what we do. You gotta figure either Jay is going in alone, or there is going to be a hell of alot of tension on the other side of the ring to us.
]Marcus Cage: So either way you look at it, we are at an advantage. If Amp shows us, there's no way possible that they will work together as a team. Where as you and I, well we are about as in sync as they come. As far as tag teams go, you don't get any better than SHOCK AND AWE!
]Dynamite: And that is the truth!
]Marcus Cage: Um... dude... did you ever take the food off the grill?
]Dynamite: SHIT!
(They all turn towards the grill, to see that all the hot dogs and burgers are burnt black and crispy.)
]Marcus Cage: Looks like we are ordering PIZZA!
]Jayne: YAY PIZZA!!!
