Christine Nash · (09-03-2013)

When Jack woke up, he didn't know what to do. No one had really tried to kill him in the war games, however, he still didn't feel safe. He knew that the Black Snakes wouldn't stop until they killed him. However, he couldn't hide forever. He had to do something. After taking his breakfast, Kronus picked up the gun Dennis gave him and left.

After driving in circles, Kronus was sure no one had followed him. He had decided to bring a bike instead of a car. He didn’t had any cheap car, and it would be suicidal to bring his Ferrari. He killed the engine of his XL Sportster and started waiting. Since Dennis would probably be late, Jack decided to buy the latest issue of the XWF magazine. It would help him pass some time. It was also a great cover. There were lots of people reading stuff. It would be easy to blend with the crowd.

After finishing reading the article about Thunderbowl, Jack decided to call Dennis. He knew Dennis always showed up late, but Jack didn't want the pizza to get cold. He hated cold food. He was about to press the "call" button when he heard a familiar voice behind him.

"What's up?"

Dennis looked like he did 5 years ago. With his bear shaved and a Manchester United soccer T-Shirt, it was like if he was 18 years old again.

"You shouldn't have brought that T-Shirt. Everyone will now you're British! You really haven't learnt a thing, have you?"

"Don't worry Jack! No one has followed me! It is just me and you Jack, like in the old times! Pizza...Bear...Sports...Bitches..."

"No bitches dude! I can't risk it! If I got a hooker pregnant it would be the end of my wrestling career! The media would kill me!"

"Alright dude, chill out! It was a joke!"

"Alright man, let's eat!"

The pizza parlour was almost empty. With a Burger King on the other side of the street and a Subway in the nearby shopping center, the parlour had almost no costumers. Jack and Dennis choose a table in the corner of the room. Since there were almost no other costumers, the owner of the place even let them choose the channel.

“This is quite nice indeed Dennis! Haven’t seen a soccer game in ages!”

“It’s good isn’t it? So Jack, I heard about this match with Jason Smith and Vynl. Those guys looks tough man…”

“They might look tough, but they can’t do shit. Jason talks alot, but I have never seen him do anything. He keeps talking about that Battle Royal for the UFO in Leap of Faith. So what, he eliminated me. Big deal! He lost that shit too! He lives in the past man… 2 weeks ago me and Joseph Kain fought Cam Lang and him. Jason might have won, but if it wasn’t for Cam Lang, he would have lost the match. Like I said before, he talks a lot. Let him talk. His bark is worse than his bite. The other weirdo, Vynl, hasn’t said anything yet. I bet he’s afraid. After all, thumbtacks will be surrounding this ring. This match ain’t for a rookie like him…"

“Cool story bro. Now, eat some pizza and shut the fuck up!"

The pizza that Dennis had ordered was different, to say the least. It looked like the cook had put all the stuff he had on his fridge in the blender and dropped it on top of the pizza. However, it tasted better than it looked.

"This thing is good!"

“I knew you would like it! The owner is a nice guy. Me and him go way back. He also makes an aweso-“

Suddenly, a car stopped in front of the pizza parlour. It was red, except for a black symbol in the back doors. It was painted with a spray can. Kronus knew that symbol. The snake around the sword…

“Fuck! It’s the Black Snakes!”

“This is a robbery motherfuckers! Everyone out of here or I will blow your heads off!"

Jack and Dennis started running to the exit. Maybe they weren't after him. Maybe it was just a regular robbery. Maybe he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Just when he was about to leave, a masked man pointed a shotgun at him.

"Not you Kronus. The boss is going to pay good cash for you... And for you too Dennis! You know how he hates traitors..."

The masked man approached Kronus and pulled out a pair of handcuffs. He was about to lock Kronus when he saw the open register. He then jumped the counter and started filling his pockets with the few dollars that were inside the register.

"You picked the wrong place to rob fool!"

The owner of the pizza parlour stormed throught the place. He was now armed with a broken bottle he had found on a trash can. He went behind the counter and started attacking the robber. The two man started fighting with everything they could get their hands on. The robber had lost his gun in the heat of the battle, so he was trying to hit his opponent with a plate, while the owner of the parlour was still waving around with the broken bottle, trying to slash the robber's face. While the two man fought, Jack and Dennis saw the opportunity and ran away. The driver of the Black Snake's car, after listening to all this noise left the car and entered the pizza parlour. When he saw Jack and Dennis leaving throught the back door, he started running too.

"Quickly Jack, to the sewers!"

Dennis had found an entrance to the sewers. The smell was awful, but it was the best hiding place they had. It would be hard to follow them there. They entered the sewer and started running. After running for almost half an hour, they stopped to catch their breath.

"I think we lost them!

"Damn! I left my bike back there!"

"Dude, you got like, 30 of those bikes!"

"I don't have 30 Sportsters from 1956 man... That thing was expensive!"

"You're rich dude! Chill the fuck out!"

"I have to go back there! That bike was important to me!"

"You can't go back. That place must be crawling with Black Snakes!"

"Damn you Dennis! Why did I decided to join you? You're bad luck for me..."

"Karma dude! Blame it on karma!"
