'Stone's Throe (Jarvick, Bandit Mentioned)

[Phenomenal AJ Riles]

The shot fades in to show OCW's newest acquisition, Lucas Reinhardt, standing backstage following his match as he looks around the arena in awe. "So...this is OCW, huh? Well, it's nice to get a chance to have a real look around now, I guess. Wonder where--?"

"Greetings, mis~ster Reinhardt." A low, hissing voice, sounding almost dead, whispers behind him.

"AAH! Holy jesus, Greg! Don't do that!" The man, Greg, frowns slightly.

"I've asked you before, Mis~ster Reinhardt, to refer to me either by 'Gregory', or 'Mandrake'."

"And I'VE asked YOU before to stop sneaking up on me and hissing in my ear! Alright. So. Where's Jarvick? Any idea?" Lucas asks.

"I'm afraid not."

"...Huh. Too bad, I guess. The guy's late getting his contract finalized, so they give me a tag match with--!"

"Yes~, 'Bandit' Eric Wils~son, hmm? It would appear you managed to turn s~some...heads. With your display, tonight."

"...I'm never gonna get used to your voice, you know that, Greg?"

[Mizer]

"I'm late getting it finalized 'cause I was still in England when they called me to discuss it."

Lucas and Mandrake turn to see Jarvick entering the backstage area, wearing his trench coat and bandanna over street clothes with a duffle bag slung over his shoulder.

"There's a 5 hour difference between here in the States and Limey Country, you'd think a wrestling company that contacts talent all over the world in all kinds of different timezones would be aware of them." Jarvick readjusted his duffle bag so it wasn't digging into his shoulder so much.

"Didn't expect to see you here, Mandrake. You didn't follow us to England, so why follow us here?"

[Phenomenal AJ Riles]

"I am merely ens~suring that my... Talents, rec~seive fitting contracts, hmm." Mandrake hisses.

"Seriously, never gonna get used to those sounds." Lucas mutters. "Why were you even still across the pond, anyway? Your plane get delayed again?"

[Mizer]

"Daniel suckered me into doing one more house show before I came over here to report in for OCW. Speaking of, I got confirmation that I'm part of the roster now, and that we've been recognized as a tag team. I didn't get a chance to watch any of those tapes you sent me about this place, so what have you seen of the other teams around here?"

[Phenomenal AJ Riles]

"Well, they've got the 'Amazing Spider-Man'..."

"Men."

"Oh. Right. Men. And, I guess they're our opponents for Inferno. Other than that, Werwulf and Manticore are here too, but we kinda already knew that..." Reinhardt trails off as he thinks to himself.

"The...MegaPowers~s are als~so here."

"WHAT?!" Reinhardt shouts, going wide-eyed like a kid at Christmas. "Ohmygodohmygodohmygod! Hogan and Savage! What're they doing here?! I didn't think--!"

Jarvick lets out a low sigh as Mandrake interrupts.

"The...Chupacabra, and Kunk."

"...Oh."
