Once, in the grassy plains outside the city, where the modern world seemed to fade away, EDWARD was getting ready for his epic showdown with Sidney Grey. 


The mighty caveman had a strategy: he would practice chucking spears until his aim was perfect. "EDWARD HIT TARGET! SIDNEY NO CHANCE!" he roared every time a spear hit the mark.


After several hours, and with a makeshift target that looked suspiciously like a crude drawing of Sidney covered in spear holes, EDWARD decided it was lunchtime. 


With the same energy and vigor with which he trained, EDWARD dug into his lunch, a massive leg of lamb, raw berries, and a whole coconut (which he cracked open using only his forehead).


"MMM... GOOD FOOD MAKE STRONG FIGHTER!" EDWARD declared, licking his fingers. He even tried a little dance of satisfaction, which looked hilarious given his size and caveman seriousness.


As he was digging in and humming a prehistoric tune, a sleek black van with "XWF" plates rolled up. It was so out of place in the primitive backdrop that for a moment EDWARD thought it was a big black animal and picked up a spear.


The side door of the van slid open suddenly, and two masked figures with XWF badges jumped out. Before EDWARD could react (or chuck a spear), they threw a giant net over him.


"UGH! WHAT THIS?!" EDWARD roared, struggling. But the net seemed to be made of some modern material that even his immense strength found challenging.


The masked figures hurriedly shoved the trapped EDWARD into the van, and as they sped away, the last thing to be heard was EDWARD's voice echoing, "EDWARD JUST WANTED LUNCH! WHY YOU RUIN EDWARD'S LUNCH?!"


A little while later, the black van screeches to a halt, its doors violently flung open. 


Two masked figures hurriedly pull EDWARD out, his struggles futile against their surprising strength. 


Before him stands a swirling portal, shimmering and pulsating with strange energy. 


The figures push EDWARD closer, and he glimpses strange symbols and eerie lights emanating from it. 


With one final shove, they send the caveman hurling into the mysterious vortex. 


As he disappears, the portal's hum intensifies for a split second, then abruptly fades, leaving behind an empty space


































MOMENTS LATER...


















The stark, strange land of Hel.




Flames lick chunks of ice while cold winds pass with haunting cries. The horizon is a mixture of fiery reds and icy blues, making the whole landscape both burning and frozen at the same time.


In the midst of this, EDWARD stands, a little puzzled but unafraid. His broad figure contrasts against the chaotic backdrop of Hel. He's examining the Shiny title on his shoulder, which seems to glow even brighter in this dark place.


Rubbing his head, EDWARD says, "HOW EDWARD GET HERE? THIS... THIS REAL? HMM... MAYBE EDWARD TAKE WRONG TURN AFTER LUNCH?"


He stoops down, feeling the ground, then looks at the dancing flames and ice around him. "IT NOT HOT! THIS PLACE ODD. BUT NO MATTER. PLACE NOT SCARE EDWARD. EDWARD STRONG. EDWARD CHAMPION. EDWARD LEADER OF TRIBE."


Lifting the Shiny title high, he continues, "THIS SHINY PROVE EDWARD STRONG. SIDNEY THINK SHE CAN DEFEAT EDWARD? EDWARD SEE SIDNEY AFTER LAST FIGHT. SHE HIT OTHERS, NOT EDWARD. WHY? SHE SCARED. EVEN WITH FRIENDS AND CHAIR, SHE KNOW SHE NO MATCH FOR EDWARD STRENGTH."


With a confident grin, EDWARD adds, "SIDNEY, YOU READY? MEET IN STRANGE LAND? EDWARD READY! EDWARD ALWAYS READY!"


"SIDNEY GREY, YOU WALK PATH OF SHADOWS, YOU THINK THEY PROTECT? SHADOWS LIE! YOU SAW AT ANARCHY. EDWARD, GORILLA, AND WAR CRIMINAL... WE STAND STRONG! WE DEFEAT FAKE MUSCLE AND PAINTED WOMAN. BUT WHERE WAS BRAVE SIDNEY THEN? ATTACKING OTHERS, HIDING FROM TRUE CHALLENGE!"


"WHEN EDWARD YOUNG, GRAND-ELDER TELL STORY OF NIGHT AND DAY. NIGHT HIDE, DAY SHINE. YOU, SIDNEY, LIKE NIGHT. HIDING, SNEAKING, TAKING CHEAP SHOTS. EDWARD? EDWARD LIKE DAY. STRONG, CONSTANT, NEVER FADING!"


"LONG AGO, IN TIME OF CAVE AND BEAST, EDWARD LEARN ONE THING: COWARDS HIDE, WARRIORS FIGHT. SIDNEY, YOU SHOW TRUE COLORS. YOU SHOW YOU COWARD. HIDING BEHIND FRIENDS, WEAPONS, AND LIES."


"EDWARD BRAVE TEST OF TRICKY WOMAN BEFORE. SARAH STRONGER THAN YOU. BRAVER THAN YOU. BUT TRICKY, JUST LIKE YOU. EDWARD FEND OFF HER CHALLENGE AND STAND STRONG BECAUSE OF IT. EDWARD DO THE SAME WITH YOU."


"130 MOONS... DAY AFTER DAY, EDWARD HOLD THIS SHINY. FIGHT AFTER FIGHT, BATTLE AFTER BATTLE, EDWARD STAND VICTORIOUS! BECAUSE EDWARD FIGHT WITH PURPOSE, WITH HONOR. NOT FOR GLORY. NOT FOR POWER. BUT FOR LEGACY! FOR HISTORY! FOR GOOD OF TRIBE!"


"SIDNEY! WHERE YOU HIDE LAST ANARCHY? WHILE FAKE MUSCLE AND PAINTED WOMAN JUMP FRIENDS, WHERE YOU? EDWARD THERE! EDWARD WAIT FOR CHANCE TO CRUSH TRICKY WOMAN BEFORE BIG FIGHT. YOU AVOID ANARCHY? YOU SCARED OF EDWARD?!"


"HAHA, OF COURSE YOU IS! IF EDWARD KNOW TRICKY WOMAN AS WELL AS THINK DO, RIGHT NOW SHE TRYING TO STEAL EDWARD'S SHINY. JUST LIKE SNEAKY FOX, ALWAYS TRYING TO STEAL EDWARD'S BERRIES. BUT EDWARD CATCH FOX EVERY TIME! SAME WITH TRICKY WOMAN. NOT MATTER HOW CLEVER SCHEME, EDWARD STRONG ENOUGH TO BREAK ANY TRICK WOMAN MAKE."


"JUST LIKE FOX, SHE LEAVE WITH NOTHING."


"SIDNEY, IN THIS PLACE OF FIRE AND ICE, OF SHADOW AND LIGHT, YOUR DESTINY AWAITS."


"SIDNEY, IN THIS LAND OF WARRIORS, ONLY TRUE STRENGTH MATTER. AND SIDNEY... YOU LACK THAT STRENGTH. YOU LACK THAT HEART. YOU MAY HAVE SHINY MOMENT ONCE, BUT EDWARD... EDWARD HAVE ETERNITY OF VICTORIES."


"COME RELENTLESS, SIDNEY WILL FEEL POWER OF EDWARD. WILL FEEL WRATH OF TRUE WARRIOR. BECAUSE IN END, IN THIS BATTLEGROUND, IN THIS HUNTING GROUND, EDWARD REMAIN UNDEFEATED. SIDNEY? SIDNEY JUST ANOTHER SHADOW, WAITING TO FADE."


Suddenly, EDWARD's stomach growls audibly. He smirks, raising his spear high, and declares, "NOW, EDWARD HUNT LUNCH IN HEL!" In the distance, a shadowy creature, perhaps a mythical beast native to Hel, stirs. 



Its glowing eyes fixate on EDWARD. Undeterred and hungry, EDWARD begins his pursuit, as the scene slowly fades to black.
