The scene fades in front of Buckingham Palace. A vintage 1969, Candy apple red Ford Mustang screeches to a hault in front of the Palace. After a moment, The door swings open and out steps a man with a disgusted scowl on his face. He takes off his red sunglasses and straightens his brown trenchcoat and looks around...

God, What a retched stinkhole of a town. I can't believe even Halo would be proud to be from here. Hmm, now where the hell am I? Buckingham Palace, Buckingham Palace... Don't see anything remotely resembling a Palace around here. Only this stupid looking building with a bunch of men wearing beavers or something on their heads. What kind of freaks live here anyway? This place sucks...

Suddenly, Another voice chimes in, And quickly you realize there is another man inside the car...

Well you are the one that talked me into taking the "direct approach" with Halo. If you could have just kept your mouth shut for 5 more days, We would still be in the states.

Yea well whatever... If I would have to have stayed in "Hotel Ala Cockroach" for one more damn minute, I would have puked. Now, Lets just find that little wench Halo and go the hell home. Now... What were the directions?

All I know is she is rumored to be renting some ritzy loft about 2 miles from the palace. Maybe if we...

But the man speaking is suddenly cut off as a guard approaches...

GUARD: Can I help you, Red?

The man standing outside the car looks down on the short portly man with a disgusted look.

No, thank you my good man, I'm fine.

GUARD: We'll sure, once you get out of this no parking zone. You can't park your car there without a permit. It's for government officials only.

Government? What all 2 of them? HAHA! I thought your country was ran my that old crusty woman and the guy with the big ears that had his wife killed off? I mean PUH-LEEZE, How much government can you guys have?

GUARD: Yeah Yeah, That's a good one. You're a funny guy. Listen, please move your car before I have it moved.

Very well, no need to be a fairy. Maybe you can help me, though. I'm looking for this hairy chick. She is like some sort of celebrity to you English blokes. I have no damn clue what her name is, Probably something like Clara Belle. But anyway, You call her The Dark Halo...

GUARD: The Dark Halo you say? Yes, She is quite the celebrity here. And yes, It just so happens I know where she lives. But sir, You are crazy if you think I am just going to spit out her home address to someone the likes of you...

Oh? Is that a fact, Suppose then I shove my...

But the man on the outside of the car is quickly interrupted, As the man that still sits patiently in the car finally steps out. He slowly walks over to the guard, And extends his hand. The guard shakes his hand, And then... Looks down at this hand, And smiles, As the man then gets back into his car...

GUARD: Oh, Very well... What you need to do is just take Osbourne here, to Portage, then all the way to St. James. You will see a complex there, And The Dark Halo will be staying in the Penthouse...

Um, Ok... Why thank you. I'll be on my way now.

The other man gets back in the car, And the guard then looks in the window.

GUARD: So, What are you guys anyway, Some sort of circus performer?

Circus performers? Nah, We are just your average insane serial killers. I'm heading over to the complex to plant the explosives I've got in my trunk. By the way, Did you know you have a giant gopher sitting in your head? Cya later!

The man then screeches off leaving the guard looking dumbfounded.

Moron. And just how the hell did you get him to give you the address?

When I shook his hand, I slipped him 500 dollars, Money talks in any country my friend...

Whatever... So, Osbourne to what street did he say? Argh, I HATE this place! All I see when I look around is homeless people and dilapidated buildings. Now I see why Halo is the way she is. THAT'S a University?! It looks like an old shoe factory. I can't wait to get out of here...

It will be over soon, I am sure this will all be settled tonight with Halo...

I hope to hell so. I mean this... Hey asshole! Watch where you're going! Did you see that? He just cut me off...I thought Englishmen were supposed to be friendly. And why the HELL are we driving on the wrong damn side of the road!

No... I think its Canadians that are supposed to be friendly. But whatever, Take this next right...

Hey Hey! I think that's it! Yea, Right there! Hell yes, Its about damn time! Now, We found where she lives, Can we go home now?

No, Not just yet. Now.. We are just getting started.

Please tell me we are not going to just sit here and wait for her.

No, Not at all... We are going in, And we are going to pay our little Halo a visit.

And if she is not home?

I will tell the front desk I am her long lost brother. If that fails, Again... Money talks. And if all else fails... We just kick the door in...

No No! Its we kick the "Bloody" door in! Remember, We are in.. Well, Wherever we are, So we gotta talk like they talk!

The man with the jet black hair just nods his head to keep his friend quite. And then together, They make there way inside the complex.

Within moments, Having smuggled away a room key from the front desk, The duo are now standing outside of The Dark Halos loft.

You have got to be kidding me... Her room number is 666? Oh that's rich...

~Knock Knock~

Ok, No ones at home, Can we leave now?

The other man glares at his friend and...

Why do you think I bothered to get the key?

~Click~

The two men slowly make their way into Halo's apartment, Careful not to break anything...

Hey, This place don't look half bad. Coming from Halo I sort of expected the joint to look like a cave with bats hanging from the ceiling. Anyway, Now what?

We simply wait...

Well while you simply wait, I am going to raid the fridge! I am sure that wee little Miss Sunshine wont mind...

The one man takes a seat on the sofa, As the other man continues to search through Halo's refrigerator. Finally...

Hey, She has Budweiser! Hmm, Would that count as imported beer here in the land of... Wherethehellever? Oh yeah! Forgot to tell you, I was checking out the XVI website, And so it seems we were elected into their Hall Of Fame, Cool huh?

Well I am sure it was by a unanimous vote. Were there any others?

Only one I can remember was that Loki chick... Isn't she Halo's sister?

Well if she is Halo's sister, Who is Whisper?

I thought Straight-Jacket and Loki were her sisters?

Well if they are her sisters, Who the hell are Whisper and Poison? I thought THEY were her sisters?

Umm, Her mother and Aunt?

Are they all sisters?

God, If they are... Talking about one freaking fairy assed family.

Well at one time didn't you have a thing for Whisper or one of them?

Yea, Well... Maybe, I don't know... I actually think I have slept with all of them at one time or the other...

As the two men laugh, Suddenly... And quite abruptly a third voice chimes in. And there, Standing in the doorway of her home, Glaring at the two men...

Halo ~ I knew it, I damn knew it would be you two fools. What in the HELL are you doing in MY home?

The man who is STILL searching through her refrigerator looks over at Halo with a huge smile on his face and...

Fade ~ JIHADETTE! How the hell are you freak? So tell me, Are you shaving your underarms yet? Or are you still braiding that shit? By the way, Want a beer? It's imported...

Halo glares at Fade for a moment and...

Halo ~ Hello Mike, And no I don't want one of MY beers. And I am fine thank you, What about yourself? Have you contracted syphallis yet?

As Fade and Halo continue to glare at one another. The man, With the jet black hair, Finally begins to chime in...

Jihad ~ Hello my dear, It is certainly a pleasure to see you again. Although, I have to confess, You don't seem to be surprised to see us in the least...

Halo's gaze quickly turns from Fade, To glaring a hole through Jihad...

Halo ~ You are kidding me... right? RIGHT? What other two morons would go through all the trouble of having one of their stooges say she is me, Just to get under my skin enough for me to come to The XVI to confront her. I have known you for quite a long while Jihad, You need to give me some credit. Not to mention, Stan my doorman said my "Two long lost brothers" were waiting for me in my room. When I asked what they looked like, He said one had scraggly brown hair, A dirty brown trenchcoat, Looked as if he was drunk, And reaked of liqueur. And the other, Wore black dreadlocks, And red contact lenses. It wasn't that hard to make the connection...

Jihad simply smirks for a moment, And then...

Jihad ~ Touche my dear. But first off... They aren't contact lenses. Now, If I may. I am sure you are in no mood for a debate so I will get straight to the point. I am here with a business proposal. If you are interested in hearing it, I will begin. But, If you have no interest, Just say the word, And Mike and I will then make our way back the States, And no harm done. It's your choice Little One...

Halo, Continue?

|z|.Greed. Luscious greed is bringing you to my knees. I love your lustful envy, and I love the way you need me… Oh fuck, I’ve missed a sinner .|z|



|z| Humanity has crashed to its knees finally. Nothing left for us to destroy as we slowly start to kill everything off, little by little. Sadistic and immoral is the only words I can think of to describe these heinous motions, acted out daily by you pathetic excuse for beings. You’ve proven time and time again that you are in fact the most dominant of all species. Now you have turned to killing one and other to try and prove which is the most dominant religion? Given this earth and all we can do is destroy it. Greed… Oh Luscious greed .|z|

...Scene Opens...
Tense atmosphere engulfs the room as each members eyes pierce deeply into the others. Fade searches through the refrigerator, fingers fumbling over every morsel of food, tainting it with the smell of alcohol. Smiling to himself, he eyes each piece of nutrition, his tiny little mind working overtime, trying to decide which piece to indulge in first.

HalO tilts her head to the side slightly, eyes panning over this monster’s frame. It’s been a long time since these two titans were face to face, eye to eye… and this might even be the last. Moving her long fiery red hair over her shoulder, her eyes flicker around Jihad’s features; those vicious red eyes seemingly burning in the light, his black dreads hanging limply from his face... The defining features of such an indescribable man. A sick grin spreads across the beautiful face of HalO, her sick hazel eyes lighting up as she sits upon the dining room table.

She turns her head slowly, watching Fade fill his mouth with as much grub as he can. Crossing her legs, her black tartan skirt rides slowly up her legs, flashing her red fish net stockings. Her big black boots smash against the chair as she pulls a cigarette from a packet beside her and lights one up. Looking back to Jihad, she grins; smoke oozing past her luscious lips.



|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...You expect me to believe that Fade came with you to help with a business proposition?. "

HalO turns to look back at fade, looking upon him with pity.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...Fucker was probably just hungry and too cheap to buy his ass something. "


HalO flicks her cigarette ash on the floor, offering Jihad one. Speaking, her rich British accent sensual and tantalizing..

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
".....Get to the point, before that bitch starts eating my furniture.. "


HalO presses the palms of her hands behind her on the table, leaning back on them, supporting her weight. Her legs crossed, one over the other, her cigarette hanging between her lucious lips. Her chest pushed outwards slightly, slowly moving to the rhythm of her body as she awaits The Devils reply.


( OOC :Haven’t done this in over a year. Bare with me )[/b][/center]

[The VNB]

Upon those words, A large smirk comes over the face of the self proclaimed "Ruler Of ALL". He leans forward, Shoving the ashtray that sets on The Dark Halo's coffee table to where it now sits directly in front of her. Meanwhile, Fade continues to riffle through the refrigerator, But suddenly stops and begins to glare at Halo when he finally takes notice of her skirt riding up her legs and her red fish net stockings. As Fade, Who no longer seems very interested in the refrigerator, Continues to gaze at Halo, Jihad then raises his finger to his lips, And finally begins to speak...

Jihad ~ First off my dear, Concerning your question of Fade being here with me if this is just a business proposal. Well Little One, The answer to that is quite simple. You know very well, The Devil travels no where without his advocate...

Slowly, Jihad then stands and begins to take off his over coat. He then places the coat on the back of his chair, And then once again takes a seat.

Jihad ~ Now, I have to say, I sense a bit of mistrust coming from you my dear. I have to confess that I thought they we were long past that. I mean, I think back to what was it, 2 years ago? A very secret meeting between you and I where an offer to join The VNB was proposed to you and another man. A proposal that was accepted if I do recall correctly. But alas, Sadly that partnership never materialized due to a situation out of our control... So, If you could trust me then, Why not trust me now?


Fade, Who is now standing in front of the refrigerator, With a chicken leg in one hand, And a Budweiser in the other finally chimes in...

Fade ~ Yea Freak, I mean... I don't know ANYONE that you can trust more than J here. I mean, He NEVER lies. Shit, He is about the nicest damn person I ever met! I mean just on the way over here. We see this wee little puppy on the side of the road that just got hit by a car. Well, Devil-J here, Knowing that the poor little puppy was suffering and his leg was probably broken, Then backed up and ran over the puppy's head three times just to put the poor little thing out of its misery. I mean PUH-LEEZE! If that isn't a good Samaritan, I don't know what the hell is. By the way, Do those fish nets come in black as well?


Halo once again fixes her gaze at Fade, Wondering... Just how it is possible that he can walk, And talk at the same time. Meanwhile, Jihad stills seems to be totally fixated on Halo, Who is still leaned against the table, Smoking the last few drags of her cigarette...


Jihad ~ My dear, You can take a seat. No need to be on the defensive, I promise you this is all on the level. If Mike and I wanted a fight or to put you out of commission, We would have done so as soon as you walked through the door. Now, With that being said, Lets me move on. When I got into the business, I only wanted to accomplish one thing. And that one thing was to become what is known as the greatest professional wrestler in the business. Now, I know some people will put up an argument. But in many circles I am known as just that... The greatest wrestler ever. But even with that accomplishment, I quickly grew board. There were only so many times I could face the likes of Richards, Corpse, Szaban and the list goes on and on. So, After defeating them all, On numerous times... I retired, But the itch remained.

Once again, Jihad stands and offers Halo another cigarette due to the fact she has just put hers out. Halo slowly shakes her head no, And Jihad then makes his way to Halo's side window, And begins to look out into the rainy night and begins again.

Jihad ~ The itch remained, And the one thing that I wanted to accomplish, Suddenly became four things. You see my dear, Next I wanted to run my OWN federation, And I wanted it to be a thundering success. And to say the least, It was. With the likes of you, Corpse, Makaveli, Richards and the list goes on and on. The XWWA was a smashing success. But alas, I missed the action from inside of the ring, And The XWWA is no more. So... With that done, That left me with two things accomplished... And now dear, Now is where you come in...

Fade had finally taken his eyes off Halo, And is now busy searching through her kitchen drawers. Jihad, Is now moving back around the chair, And taking a seat, He looks dead into Halo's eyes and...

Jihad ~ You see Little One, The way I see it... You are one of the best in the business right now. Hence, Why I asked you to join The VNB all those years ago... As it stands right now, You are a threat to capture any title you set your sites on. But... That is just that, You are a "threat". And I my dear, I want you to be so much more... And that is why, I am offering my services to you... As your, Manager.

With those words, You can hear a pin drop in the room. The shock on Halo's face cant be disguised. Suddenly, From the other side of the room. Fade appears to be choking on a bagel...

Fade ~ *COUGH* YOU WANT TO BE *CHOKE* HER WHAT?!? YOU TOLD ME *GAG* THIS WAS ABOUT A BUSINESS VENTURE!

Jihad then holds up his hand, He looks at Fade and...

Jihad ~ This is a business venture...

He then turns to Halo and...

Jihad ~ And you... Just hear me out before you make your decision. Now, The way I see it, In some ways you are quite the lucky woman. Many consider the three greatest wrestlers, Of this era to be myself, You mentor The Corpse, And that man standing at your counter choking on a bagel. And as it so happens, You happen to know all three of these men very well. Now as I said before, With your natural born talent, And with the teachings of The Corpse...

Fade ~ Hehe, The Corpse. Also known as The Jerky Turkey...

Jihad just slowly shakes his head and...

Jihad ~ Can I finish? As I was saying, With the teachings of The Corpse and your natural talent. You are a major threat to win any Championship you set your pretty little eyes on. But stop... And imagine this. Your natural talent, Plus the mentoring of The Corpse. And then add in, The mentoring, Of myself and "The Demolition Man". My dear... You would no longer we known as a threat. You would known as totally... Unstoppable. The viciousness of The Corpse. The technical prowess of Michael Gordy. And the all out god like power of "The Ruler Of ALL". All wrapped up, In one very beautiful little package. My Dear... You would have The XVI bow before you, Just as I had The EWW, And so many others bow before me. But, Of course... It is your decision...

Jihad then stands, He takes his overcoat from the back of his chair, And lays it over his arm. Then, Looking at The Dark Halo...

Jihad ~ As I said, The decision is yours. You will be known as the greatest. And I, I will just add another note to my most impressive career. I will now be the manager, Of the greatest wrestler here in The XVI. And I will watch on as she captures The XVI World Championship with I as her manager. Thus, Completing number three on my list. So my dear, The decision is?

Reply Halo?

...You want it?...
HalO grins at Jihads offer, slightly stunned by this god’s proposal. She looks down, clearing her throat, slowly sliding off of the table, her skirt slowly edging up her thigh as she does so. Walking over to where Fade is stood, she steps in front of him, looking up into his eyes. She bites her bottom lip lustfully, speaking; her rich British accent is simply spine-tingling.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...You see potential in me? "

Fade raises his eyebrow. HalO grins, looking at Jihad who watches her intensively then back at Fade. She slowly takes the piece of food from his hand, looking up, speaking quieter .

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...You are right Jihad… I am lucky. Knowing you, Corpsey and…"


She pauses, sighing, looking Fade up and down slowly, a grin spreading across her face..

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
".....Michael here, extremely well. "

She takes a single step forward, her body pressing close to Fades, who looks slightly… unsure of what to do. HalO moves her long crimson hair from her face, biting her bottom lip, looking up into Fades eyes as he takes a hard gulp.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"... There’s mutual trust here Jihad. That’s purely because we both know… You fuck me over, I fuck you over... twice as hard. "

HalO presses her hand on Fade’s chest, pushing him backwards towards the couch.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" I’m quit shocked if I’m honest. The history between us, the past we’ve had… The constant one-up-man ship we had going on for well over a year would be enough to surely give you some kind of hint of how hard I go… and how dedicated I am to the D.O.A ... was.. "


Fade falls backwards over the back of the couch, hitting the cushions hard. HalO grins seductively.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Get the fuck out of my fridge… pig.. "

She turns, eyes hitting Jihad, watching him.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" And yes, Fade, these stockings do come in black… I’ll remember to pick you up a pair next time I’m out... Even though, I personally don’t think black is your color. "

Folding her arms across her firm chest, HalO walks slowly to Jihad.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“You’re not just asking me if I want you to be my manager Jihad… You’re asking me to turn my back of my revolution… To walk away with a blind eye from everything I’ve known these past 5 years. To turn away from The Corpse… From the legend of the D.O.A and join you… Our only worthy opponents…. "

She grins, placing her hands on her hips. Tilting her head to the side slightly, she whispers.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“How do I know this isn’t just a sick twisted mind game you and numb nuts over here have come up with, to demolish D.O.A once and for all? …. "

She waits…





( OOC :>.> sorry for making you wait for so long for something so shitty )[/b][/center]

[The VNB]

A slight grin comes over Jihad's face as he slowly begins to put his arms through his overcoat and then slips it on. Meanwhile, Fade rolls off the sofa into Halo's floor with a loud "THUD". Slowly, Jihad then makes his way, To where he is now standing toe to toe with The Dark Angel herself. He opens his mouth to speak, But suddenly... A hand comes between Hell's two favorite superstars... The hand of Fade Gordy. He turns to look at Jihad and...

Fade ~ Don't worry about it J. I got this one...

Then, Turning back to Halo. Fade lustfully looks her body up and down. Suddenly, And quite unexpectedly, Fade begins to slowly inch forward. It looks as if he is inching in, Perhaps wanting... A kiss! As Halo glares at Fade with her big brown eyes, Her fists tighten and then... Fade's approach to her mouth, Quickly changes directions! And then ever so close to her ample body. He whispers in her ear...

Fade ~ Listen up smurf...

Jihad then takes a step back, As Fade then straightens back up, Takes a step back from Halo, And continues...

Fade ~ Ok pumpkin. Most people say if I am anything, They say I am conceited. They say I make shit up off the top of my head and that I ain't exactly the most honest person in the world. So, With that said. Lets forget about all that shit for a moment and just deal with the facts... K? Now sweetheart, I will be the first to admit you are one tough cookie. But let me ask you this, Just how many wrestlers do you know who are out their today. That can kick mine, And Devil-J's ass, At the same time? Let me answer that for you... Not one, Not one damn one. If we were so intent on taking that OH SO PRETTY little ass of yours out. We would have done so, And there wouldn't have been a damn thing you could have done about it. Sure, You may have been able to fend us off for a few moments. But in the end, You would have been plummeting 10 stories. Because we would have thrown your happy ass right out that window...

Jihad, Now seeing that this make take longer that what was once intended, Begins to light up another cigarette.


Fade ~ And furthermore Tutti Frutti. The DOA? The DOA? PUH-LEEZE! You are kidding me right? Let me ask you a question darlin'. Just what is Jerkey Turkey's win and loss record against J? Lalala... What? What was that? Hmm... I cant seem to remember... Was it... No, That's not it... Just give me a moment, It will come to me. There was that one time... And then there was that one match... Yea! Got it... He is like 0 for 100 against J! Babygirl, Your mentor, Has NEVER defeated Devil-J. So as far as we are concerned, Their is nothing left of The DOA to take out! Listen closely, The way I see it is like this. Jihad... He has never lost to Jerky, Never. So that means, The two leaders, Of The VNB, And The DOA has met in the ring, Countless times, And The DOA's leader, Has never won... Right? So, To me... That means it has been proved, The VNB... Are more powerful than The DOA. Halo, Damn girl... Listen. It's over... It's done with. The DOA versus VNB war is done with. Maybe not in your eyes, But in our eyes, We, The VNB won the war. Their is no reason now for us to want to totally destroy The DOA, In our eyes... We already have. It would be like beating a damn dead horse. This... This proposition is all about gold. And the fact Jihad can guarentee to put that gold around your pretty little body very soon. So pussywillow, Take it or leave it...

Fade then slightly backs off, And Jihad then takes a step forward. As of now, Halo is now standing toe, To toe... With two of the most feared men in Professional Wrestling history. And... She does not back down, Not even an inch...

Jihad ~ Well, I wouldn't have said it exactly like that, However I think Mike got the point across. My dear, I don't blame you for being skeptical. But as Mike said, I have nothing left to prove against The Corpse. Granted, There was a time when I would have enjoyed seeing The Maggot buried for good. But that time is long passed. I realized that placing my legacy into stone, Was much more important than the total destruction of men the like Corpse, Richards and Szaban. Men... That I have defeated countless times. Halo, I am not asking you to forget where you come from. I am not asking you to forget The Corpse or The DOA. That... Would be like asking me to forget about The VNB, It would be utterly impossible.

Then, In a most shocking move. Jihad reaches his hand forward, And then in a sweeping motion, He takes Halo's hand in his for a moment. He nods his head to her, As if in some type of odd gesture, And then lets her hand go...


Jihad ~ My dear, I know you are intrigued by this proposition. If you weren't, You would have had security throw us out as soon as you found us in your apartment. And on top of that, I believe in your heart, You want this. However, Your head is telling your heart no... And to be cautious. However Little One, I also believe your heart is telling you. That "The Almighty Ruler Of ALL", Jihad "The Devil" Sullivan, Has always been the superior to your very own Corpse. And I do belive... You are wanting, To come over to the truly dark side, And find that out for yourself... Just how much superior can I be. So remember, As all scholars say... Listen to your heart, Before you listen to your head. So Angel, What is it going to be. Do you want to wear The XVI Championship? Or should I bring my proposal to Genocide, Or maybe RKO?

As Jihad stands, Waiting intently. Fade begins to hum the tune to "Jeopardy". To indicate... The clock is ticking.

...You want it?...
HalO leans in closer to Jihad and Fade, her eyes locked purely into the ruler of alls. Her hazel eyes burn intensely, somewhat disregarding her calm exterior.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...I’ve always thought of you as being a master of puppets Jihad. "

She takes a step backwards, walking over towards her couch .

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...Leading those too frail and obscene to greatness… Leading those who cannot find their own path…"

Moving her long crimson hair out of her face, she straddles the arm of the chair, looking down at the floor..

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Those who are capable of greatness, yet never seemed to lash out and grab it when they have the chance. You bring out the greatness in the ugly. "

Jihad grins evilly. HalO looks up slowly, a sick, sadistic grin perched across her beautiful face. Her eyes hit fade with vulgar intensions glimmering in her eyes.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"... I see you want to train someone… Someone who wouldn’t need complete guidance. Someone who knows where they want to be and how to get their, but doesn’t seem to have the drive to get there themselves. "

She stands, walking towards them slowly.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Before you showed up, I was retired. Stated, never to return to the ring until my Partner was by my side… However, you two already stated what’s dead is dead... "


HalO sits on the table again, eyes glaring at these two devils before her. Slowly, a sick, sadistic grin spreads across her face.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Prove to me, I need your help.. "

Jihad raises an eyebrow, HalO smiles, jumping off of the table, walking over to Fade.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Fight me, one last time. I lose, I become your personal slave. You can do with me what you will… Make me the kind of person you expect to win the gold… You will become the master, and I will become the puppet.. "

Grinning, HalO gets closer to Fade.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“I win… Then I will prove something to everyone… I will prove I’m not just The Corpse’s sidekick. I’m not just the bitch. And D.O.A will finally get a victory over you…. "

She raises her eyebrow, straightening up Fades coat.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“ Lets test your judgment Jihad. Do I need you? ... Will you make me scream in agony as you beat the last member of D.O.A? Or will I prove you wrong… and make you proud…. "

Laughing to herself, she steps back from Fade, waiting for an answer.…

[/b][/center]

[The VNB]

For a moment, The self proclaimed "Ruler Of ALL" appears to be quite shocked. He gazes at Halo for a long moment, With what appears to be approval in his eyes. But if it is approval for the match, Or approval for Halo's determination, We have yet to find out. Jihad, Then once again, Takes a seat and appears to be deep in thought. Meanwhile, Fade just stares at Halo, And then begins to laugh. He then begins to make his way to the front door, But not before muttering...

Fade ~ "Puh-Leeze... You wanna fight J... Sure, It's your funeral..."

And then quite abruptly, Fade then opens her front door, And walks out! Slamming the door behind him! Jihad then reaches out, And steadies a lamp that rests on Halo's table that is now rocking back and forth due to Fade slamming the door. Finally, Jihad then leans back in his chair and...

Jihad ~ First off my dear, I never had any intent on making you my puppet. However, It has now became quite clear to me that I will never convince you of that and the trust factor between you and I will never be there.

Jihad then looks at his watch and begins to slightly laugh. He then leans back in his chair, Crosses his arms and glares up at Halo...

Jihad ~ Yes my dear, I have to confess, You most certainly have me in a very awkward position here. I have been retired for many years now. Since the closing of The XWWA, I have wrestled in a grand total, Of one match. And now, You are asking me to come out of retirement, And wrestle you? And further more, Wrestle you in a federation where the two owners, Makaveli and Poison, Would both very much so like to see me crippled. My dear, I cant even say with 100 percent certainty, That I would even get a fair shake in this match. But then again, I am most certainly use to a conspiracy against The VNB, So no matter.

Jihad then reaches into his pocket, And pulls something out but keeps it tightly clasped in his hand...

Jihad ~ This is really a no win situation for me. My dear, You see I may be retired... But I still believe with all that is in me, If I were to face you in the ring, I would leave you laying in the ring, Staring up at the stars while counting the cracks in the ceiling. However, I have no desire to face you, And I have no desire to come out of retirement. But now, If I don't accept your proposal, I will be labeled as a coward, That I backed down from a match with the hated DOA. However, If I were to accept, There is always a chance I could lose. Yes... I am admitting it, You could very well defeat me. I mean, I could be making my way to the ring. And then suddenly, One of the light riggings could suddenly come flying down from the ceiling, And crash into my skull rendering me unconscious. And then, That would be an easy win for you. Or of course, In the middle of our match, I could suffer a massive coronary from smoking, And once again.. You would capture the win. Or perhaps... Just maybe... Makaveli would take it upon himself to screw me over, And instruct his officials to give you a fast count. Because my dear... Those are the only scenarios you have if you truly have hopes of defeating me.

Jihad then once again leans forwards, And lays his hand on Halo's table, Still keeping whatever is in his hand held tight.

Jihad ~ And then, If I were to defeat you, That would do me no good whatsoever. As I said, After this conversation, I can now see that you will never have full trust in me, With good reason. Not to mention, If I were to defeat you, There would be the whole resentment thing on your part. And that is not exactly a good way to start a business venture now is it dear?

Suddenly, Jihads hand that rests on the table loosens, And you now see a lone coin lays on top of Halo's table. A coin made famous many years ago, On one side of the coin, The face of Jihad, On the other side of the coin, The face of The Corpse. Jihad then looks up at Halo and...

Jihad ~ This coin, I used many years ago in one of my promo's to The Corpse, It proved to be not so lucky for your mentor. What do you say, We just let the coin decide, Shall we?

Suddenly, The camera pans around the room, And as it moves along the length of the table, We see a coin spinning at a high rate of speed. The camera focuses in on it, The gleam of the light catching the edge of the coin, Causing a flashing effect.

Slowly, The coin begins to wind down. It gradually decreases its speed, Spinning more slowly, And more slowly... And now, You can clearly see both faces on the coin.

The coin continues to slow, And it appears to fall from its vertical axis. The coin begins to flutter, And then finally... Falls on heads, Or... Jihad's face, Is face up. A large smirk comes across "The Ruler Of ALL's" face. A smirk... As if he knew this would be the result all along. Jihad then abruptly stands and...

Jihad ~ Well my dear, I guess that is that. The answer I am afraid is no. As I have said before, I enjoy retirement, And I have no reason to come out of it, Not just yet. So my Angel, I thank you deeply for your time, And I hope I wasn't too much of a bother. If you do indeed become a member of The XVI, I do wish you the best of luck in your endeavors.

And most shockingly, Jihad then begins to make his way to the door! He opens the front door, And just as the door opens, Fade comes falling through the walkway into the floor! It is now quite obvious that Fade has been listening with his ear pressed to the door all along! As Fade begins to pick himself up off the floor. You then hear Jihad mutter...

Jihad ~ Let us go, Our business is finished here...

As Jihad continues to walk, Never looking back. You then hear Fade scream out to his friend...

Fade ~ DJ, Go ahead, I will be there in about 10 minutes...

Once again, Fade then makes his way into Halo's apartment. He shuts the door behind him, Looks at Halo, And then busts out in hysterical laughter!

Fade ~ HAHAHA! Turned your ass down flat didn't he Freakazoid? Yea, I knew he would... If Steven Richards couldn't get him to come out of retirement, I knew you wouldn't. So anywho... Guess what! First, It was J's turn. Then it was your turn, And now... It's MY turn! You didn't like J's proposition, So lets see if you like mine.

Fade then jumps up on Halo's sofa, And sprawls out with his legs resting on Halo's table.

Fade ~ So Britney, Let me ask ya... Ya ever seen the movie called Tombstone? Its a western like movie. It has that Kurt Russell guy and that guy who played in Batman. What was his damn name? Keaton... No, That's not it. George.... No, That wasn't it either. Damn it... Oh yea! Val Kilmer! It stared Kurt Russell and Val Kilmer! Fucking Killer Movie! Anyway, You have probably never seen it because there are no Vampires or anything like that in it. But ya see, There is a part in the movie were the hated "bad" guys, Curly Bill and Johnny Ringo are standing in front of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday. Bill and Ringo then ask Wyatt, If he is still in the business. Wyatt looks at them, And says "No, I am retired". Well they then turn to Doc, And ask him "Are you retired to"? Well babycakes, Doc then looks up at them and says "No, I am in my prime". So Tootsie... See where I am going with this?

Fade then looks Halo up and down, He licks his lips and...

Fade ~ Well you done blew your chance at having J as your manager because of your resolve and determination. Well, Lets see where your resolve and determination gets you now sweetie. J may be retired... But I am not. You want some of The VNB again, Well here I am... Standing before you in live and OH so living color. So what the hell, If you want one more chance to have a match since you to consider yourself retired, How about you have it with "The Demolition Man"? But, What do you say... We make it interesting. You beat me, And then I will become YOUR puppet! I will be your lackey, Lap dog, Whatever the hell you want to call it. But, If yours truly wins... Well baby...

Fade then stands, Moving closer and closer to Halo, He continues and...

Fade ~ If I win, Then you become... Mine. My bitch, My own personal playtoy. So hun, Two proposals have been turned down tonight, Are you going to make it three? Or are you totally going to blow your chance at running with The VNB?

Fade stands, A slight smirk on his face, Waiting for Halo's response...

Reply Halo?

As i captivate you with my words, my darling child you must read with care.[/color]
...Oh Fuck Yeah...
Slowly a sick sadistic grin spreads across the one and only Dark HalO’s beautiful face.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"...Oh Fade… You’re partner turned down my offer… He has his own reasons… But I see you’ve stepped up and thrown down the gauntlet.. "

Grinning, she steps closer to Fade, speaking quietly .

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"... Do I want your grubby little hands touching me… Prowling over my body, hungry for flesh? Needy for that attention you once had… but lost, along with your charm …"

She moves closer, whispering, their lips almost touching in a moment of heated tension..

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“Running through your head, how you could rest your body on top of mine, our hearts pounding together in a sudden rush of adrenaline as the crowd scream for me…. "

She grins, whispering.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"... And the weaker of us, screaming in agony. "

Stepping back, a serious expression plastered across her face.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
"Someone… as vile as you, having their way with me… If I lose, becoming your personal play thing for as long as we are both in commission of XVI, only stopping when the master says no more... "

Tilting her head to the side, her eyes seemingly begin to scan every inch of Fade’s body.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" Would I risk the only thing I hold dear to myself; My freedom to do whatever I may, with no regard of the consequences which may occur? "

Fade grins as HalO looks slightly unsure. She looks down to the floor, then across the walls of her room… Then something seems to catch her eye. A vulgar grin begins to spread across her luscious face.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
" …But what is freedom if you have no one to enjoy or exploit it with? "

Fade looks around to where HalO’s eyes stand. He spots what she is smiling at… A silver skull topped cane, placed above the roaring fire.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“ To never back down from a challenge, to never lose… It’s where you come from. "

Her eyes flick back to Fade, a smug grin spread across her face.

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“ You’re on, fucker…. "

She steps forward, pressing her body against Mike’s, looking up into his eyes.…

|,,!,| The One and Only |,!,,|
“ …But you better make this worth my while…. "

Folding her arms, she grins evilly, sitting down on the arm of the couch.

[The VNB]

Slowly, A most confident smirk overcomes Fade's face. He looks Halo up and down, Seemingly undressing her with his eyes. He then, Gives The Dark Angel and quick wink, And begins to make his way to the door. He reaches down, Grabs hold of the knob, But then quickly turns back to Halo and...

Fade ~ So Christina, Out of all that you just rambled off to me. I have to say I only took one thing out of it. And that is... DAMN GIRL! You want me, Don't you? Damn, I bet you are having one hell of a time at this very moment trying not to jump on me, Rip all of my clothes off, And just taking me right here in the middle of your floor! I mean just look at you! You cant hide it, I see that lust filled look in your eyes. I see your body trembling, And then suddenly tightening back up. Hell baby, I even bet your "nether-regions" are throbbing right now because you want me so bad! Hmm, Ya know... I am sure you have a broom closet somewhere here in this joint. What do you say you and I go find it, And then we can get down to performing the art of "The Wild Monkey Dance"! Well... On second thought, I always heard "boning" was never smart to do before a big match. Of course, That never stopped me before and I always came out on top in more ways than one. But, Maybe it is best you and I just hold off on the broom closet for now. I mean, As I remember, You are a "scratcher and biter". Wait... Was that you? Hell, I don't know... It was you or one of your 15 sisters... So hell baby, Time to just fess up. Tell "The Demolition Man" just how bad you still want him.

Fade, Whose smirk has now grown even larger than before, Just keeps right on rambling...

Fade ~ Ya know Sweet Tart, That's the difference between men and women. When a relationship ends, A woman will cry and pour her heart out to her girlfriends, And she will write a poem titled "All Men Are Idiots". Then she will get on with her life.

A man has a little more trouble letting go usually. Six months after the break-up, At 3:00 a.m. on a Saturday night, He will call and say, "I just wanted to let you know you ruined my life, And I'll never forgive you, And I hate you, And you're a total floozy. But I want you to know that there's always a chance for us". This is known as the "I Hate You / I Love You" drunken phone call, That 99% of all men have made at least once. There are community colleges that offer courses to help men get over this need; Alas, These classes rarely prove effective...

But see, That doesn't apply in the case of our relationship. Truth be known... I am not even sure if it was you that I had the fling with. So you know what that means? It means... If it was you, Obviously you just weren't that damn good. But oh well, All those years of macking Ol' Jerky Turkey, That would kill anyone sexually so I don't guess it is all your fault that you suck in the sack. I mean, All you need is just a little help! I promise you, After you lose this match. Maybe I will give you a couple free rides on "The Fade Express" and teach you a few things! Now, There is no need to thank me for that. I know... I am just a great guy. Anyway, What I am trying to get at is this... I know you want me, And I know you are just dying for us to hook back up after all of your talk of my grubby little hands touching you, And my body laying on top of yours, But Paula, It just ain't going to happen. You and I will never be a couple. But... If you are good, And really lucky... I'll give you that ride you still want so desperately bad.


Fade then looks around Halo's apartment one last time and...

Fade ~ Oh yea... That cute little cane hanging above your fireplace. What is that, A remake? I always thought J snatched that bitch and threw it in the ocean? Anyway baby, I know you must hate to see me go, But alas that time has come. I mean if I were to say, Just think of what all the tabloids would say! But before I go, I have one last thing to say about something you said. I do believe it went something like "I better make this worth your while". Well baby, Rather it is in the ring, Or in the broom closet, On top of your dryer, In your swimming pool, Right here on your coffee table, Or dangling naked, Hanging upside down from your skylight... The Fade Express always delivers, And I promise you this will be well worth your while and something you will never forget. So one match baby... Ill see ya in The XVI.

And on that note, Fade opens the door, And begins to make his way out and down the hall.

End Scene, Or Reply Halo? [
