| BONUS STAGE |

Most people now know that other dimensions exist thanks to our heroes' antics. Some people believe in multiples universe, hosting millions of different worlds and realities.

This is one of those worlds.

We go to Universe #66, to a strange and.. Browner Narfinex. A land that has been ravaged by war since the beginning. The people of Narfinex battle an evil group of terrorists known as Corruption. Down on the war torn land we see a crumbled city and our heroes clad in body armor armed to the teeth with weaponry walk through a desolate alley. Paige leads her group of misfits through the alley, her large assault rifle close to her chest as she lowers her brow as her eyes slowly scan her left and right. She looks back at a grizzled looking Game Boy, his muscles bulging as he walks lazily behind swing the shotgun in his arm. GB scratches the rough stubble on his jaw and spits on the floor before burning a hole in the back of Paige's head.

"Come on Sergeant! This is bull!"

Paige throws a hand into the air and the group halts. She turns to GB with a grimace and walks towards him, adjusting her weapon in her hands.

"You want to say that to my face, Boy?"

GB gets close to Paige and pulls out a lit cigar from seemingly nowhere, taking a long drag and blowing it in Paige's face. She doesn't flinch.

"I said this is bull. . Sarge."

"Guys."

The still beautiful as ever Princess, in a little less armor and much more make up, tries to intervene.

"Let's not fight among ourselves, that's exactly what Corruption wants us to do!"

"Stay out of this princess. If the private here has a problem he can just go home."

"Don't throw that Private stuff in my face, I'd still be a Sergeant if Command didn't think I was KIA."

"But you're not! So either follow orders or get the heck out of my squad."

GB shakes his head and groans in frustration as he barges past Paige down the alley. The Sergeant stands there for a while as Princess and the final full face helmet wearing soldier walk behind Game Boy. Paige rubs her brow and laughs to herself before following her squad. As the armed team exit the alley they see the ocean in front of them behind the rusted railing, smoke raising from the cities in the distance. To their left a large barricade is set up, to their right the boardwalk continues on. The three look to Paige.

"Only one way to go Sarge and it leads us back to how we entered Narfinex City."

"Hm."

"Well?"

". . . We tear down that barricade."

"Are you freaking kidding me? That'll take hours! And I'm hungry! It's way past lunch."

"You're always hungry."

"I'm always hungry *Shotgun cock* for vengeance!"

Everyone rolls there eyes, I do, the guy under the helmet does too. I don't see it but I'm sure he does. Paige hands her rifle to Princess and walks towards the barricade. She kneels down and takes a small explosive from her back and sets it at the base of the barricade, GG fiddles with the device before it beeps and she jogs back to Princess, taking back her gun. The squad take a few steps back and watch as the device explodes, demolishing the barricade. Dust fills the area and is slowly blown away by the breeze. The soldiers cover their eyes for a minute before looking beyond the debris.

"Ho-leee crackers."

Beyond the fallen barricade, several armed men of Corruption stare back at them. Wearing red clothes with gas masks covering their face. The groups stand off for a moment.

"Get to cover!!!"

Bullets fire around our heroes feet as they scatter and get into convenient chest high cover that the debris has made. Paige and GB are situated next to one another blind firing at the enemy. The soldier in the mask stands up and fires his assault rifle, taking down two enemies before taking a bullet to the chest himself. The mysterious man falls onto the ground, Princess sees it all.

"N is down!"

N? Hm, I wonder whom that might have been. Princess panics and lays down some suppressing fire.

"Gosh darn it! Alright. Today's a good enough day as any to die! You wanna be a coward? Or do you want to be a hero!?"

The three remaining stand tall put of cover and scream in bloodlust as they begin to mow down Corruption members. Game Boy rushes in front and blast foes away with his shotgun as Princess and Paige stay behind him making precise shots at the enemies further away. During the intense battle Princess takes a shot in the shoulder and falls to her knees. Paige turns hearing her in pain and runs over to her, wrapping her arm around her shoulder and standing Princess to her feet and taking her behind cover. Princess coughs, spluttering blood.

"Go on without me."

"I'm not letting you die! You're like family to me!"

"It's okay. I'll always be with you Paige."

"Don't talk like that! It's barely a flesh wound."

Princess coughs some more and puts an ammo clip in Paige's hand, pushing her fingers back to wrap her hand around the magazine. Princess cracks a smile as tears fill Paige's eyes.

"Go save the world. I . Believe in you."

Princess eyelids slowly close and her head goes limp. A tear rolls down Paige's face as she gently touches Princess' cheek before standing to her feet and joining the fray beside Game Boy.

The two manage to fend off the assault with minimal damage as they continue to walk down the boardwalk. It seems as though the last of the enemies have been dealt with as the pair survey the area.

"... Is it over?"

"It's never over."

The pair continue their walk while checking their ammo, both are almost empty. Strange since they've barely reloaded their weapons. A rumble is heard behind a fallen table and both of our heroes raise their weapons, taking aim. They move closer as the table is knocked.

Getting closer.

The pair take aim.

And a chicken runs out into the open. The pair relax, almost smiling. Game Boy turns to Paige but suddenly sees a foe take aim from behind a large potted plant! Game Boy pushes Paige aside and takes a bullet to the chest. Paige raises her weapon and puts holes into the enemy as Game Boy falls to the ground, Paige drops to her knees, cradling Game Boy in her arms.

*Cough* "Darn. . Missed one."

"Don't be too hard on yourself."

"Heh. . Someone has to be. . You were such a pushover Sarge."

"Yeah. Heh, you would have made a better Sergeant than me."

"Nah. . I'm too much of an idiot. . . You were great . . It was . An honor . . . To serve you."

"Private don't you die on me!"

". . . . Good . . . . Game. . Uh."

And with that, GB's eyes close and his body goes limp in Paige's arms. GG cries uncontrollably and buries her head in Game Boy's chest as rain starts to pour down on the two. Paige looks up to the sky in anger and opens up her arms to the sky.

"NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!"

. . . Woo. Let's go back to somewhere less melon collie, this reality is a little too much for me. Strange, some people crave this and I have no idea why. Why would someone want to live war? It's not a game, it's horror.

---

We go back to the Narfinex we know and love to catch up with our heroes. GG holds the reigns of Aggro as they slowly go down a path in the Cursed Woods. Game Boy is quietly snoozing, resting his head against Paige's back, his arms wrapped tightly around the IC championship. As he cuddles the inanimate object the blue orb flies swiftly through the air and floats beside Paige.

NEW MESSAGE FROM XWF! WOULD YOU LIKE TO LISTEN?

Game Girl sighs and nods as Fontanna's voice can be heard.

fontanna Said:Game Girl has brought my loyalties into question. She thinks that because I super kicked my "friend", and I use that term lightly, that I will turn my back on the XWF. Well let me explain something to you sweetheart. What I did to Cj Sharpe a few weeks ago was strictly a business decision that had to be made.

Paige seems disinterested as she blows a raspberry and clears her throat.


"Set Power of trash talk to 11.11% . . . Fontanna! It's just great to hear from you again. Quick question though, if kicking someone in the face to you is a smart business decision then you are dumber than you are ugly. Sure you got a unique opportunity but that just shows you're willing to sell out for money and power, well, more just money seeing how quiet the Dangerous Alliance is right now. Actually since their founding member Darren went silent he took all his money away too, so now you're in a team with no money and no power. What an intelligent little man you are."

"Sorry, intelligent is a big girl word for smart in case that didn't make sense."

"So, you get accepted to join a group, betray them for a group which promised things it can't possibly deliver and now you're here saying you're going to be on the front lines, defending the XWF. Quite frankly that seems like a good reason to join CCWF. But these petty little power struggles are off my radar at this moment in time, bigger things to worry about y'know? Know as for your match against Thunderbolt X, yes I do actually remember that match, I was being coy before. Oh sorry, coy means being reluctant to give details. . . Reluctant means, you know what just grab a dictionary, it will be easier for the both of us."

"I know of the match you were in at Relentless, I was just not entertained with the match. It was boring. Dull. A match that you deserve to be in. But right now this isn't this match so I really wish you stopped acting like you were up against Thundergirl X or some stupid stuff and actually give some gosh darn effort!"

Fontanna Said:You should do yourself a favor and go back and watch that match again, because I plan on doing twice the damage to you that I did to him!

"So you plan to kick me in the shins and say teehee? Seriously, saying twice as much isn't making me shake in my rollerskate boots or anything. A bee sting would do more damage to me then you could do, and I don't even mean like a mutant bee! A silly little bumble bee could hurt me more than this glitch Fontanna could do. I may have 'silly little tricks' but what do you have? False bravado and greasy hair, a win/loss record that belongs hanging in a bathroom so people have something spare when the toilet paper runs out. These 'silly little tricks' are my expertise, my power. They have won matches and destroyed evil. What the heck have you done?"

"Nothing. And you continue to do nothing until you roll up your sleeves, dig deep and show some potential. Quit the fake courage, quit the over use of bad language to make yourself seem tough and quit these stupid mistakes you're constantly making. Watch and learn Fontanna. Because Wednesday we're not playing a game, I'm teaching you a lesson."

Paige stares at the orb for a few seconds.


"Is that all?"

The orb stays in the air for a second or two before abruptly flying off. GG exhales and looks back at the path.


"Power of Trash Talk off."

Aggro trots down the path as Paige stares ahead. Through a clearing a small hut can be seen, smoke bellowing from the chimney. GG smiles and I think we'll leave it at that, don't want any spoilers for next time now do we?

Before we go, let's take a peek at one more reality. An odd one. We go to Universe #420 and-TURN DOWN FOR WHAT!!!!

AH! Why is that music so loud!? Why are their so many bright colors? The ocean? Is.. Is that the popular Earth beverage Mountain Dew?

LOL BLAZE IT FGT!

Excuse me? Oh, it's Game Boy. Smoking! My gosh. He rushes through the boardwalk jumping and spinning shooting off a sniper rifle off in all directions as very, VERY loud air horns blast with each shot.

OMFG!!!!11 QUIT BEIN SUCH A NEWB!

Paige cries as she eats the popular Earth snack Doritos trying to catch some sun, also smoking a herbal cigarette. GB sails passed now with a poorly textured fedora on the top of his head and with a quick tip of the hat he says deeply.

M'lady.

Urgh. Okay that's enough, let's get out of here.

BONUS STAGE COMPLETE!
