HD:Zack runs into some "old friends"

[Zack Malibu 0]

What would a wrestling show be without a BACKSTAGE SEGMENT~! Well, it'd probably be more of a wrestling show, that's for sure...however that's besides the point, as our fearless camera crew are backstage to catch famed-yet-hated duo JAMES BLONDE and FAQU making their way through the inner workings of the arena, stopped dead in their tracks when Zack Malibu rounds a corner. Malibu exchanges glares with his one-time allies, who have now called out Malibu on past deeds, feeling that he's somehow affected their standing in the OAOAST.

 

BLONDE

Well, look who it is.

 

Faqu snarls in the background, while Blonde looks over his shoulder, silently telling the big man to relax.

 

MALIBU

Funny how that works, me running into you guys tonight after what went down last week.

 

BLONDE

Yeah, funny's not really how I'd describe it, Zack.

 

MALIBU

Me either. More like unfortunate.

 

Faqu pushes forward, but Blonde stops him, more interested in verbally sparring with The Franchise.

 

BLONDE

You think you're untouchable, don't you, Zack? You think that every day you're going to wake up and the sky's gonna be clear and blue. I've got news for you, Zack...your sky is filled with nothing but clouds, and that sun isn't gonna shine on you much longer.

 

MALIBU

That's pretty profound, James. I'm guessing you've been trying to improve on your language skills since you're doing the talking for two people now. How does that happen, anyways? Did you make him watch some of your matches from 2002 until his brain was fried?

 

BLONDE

You know, we don't have to be talking right now, while we could be...

 

MALIBU

...while we could be settling this in the ring, I know. And that's exactly why I'm happy to run into you guys, because I just got word that you're going to get your wish, in a way. You brought up last week the night Faqu and I tore the house down, and how it "made" him. Well, he's going to get the chance that you both claim to need again. Next week, the big rematch is signed, sealed and delivered. Me and you, big man, back in that ring one on one.

 

Faqu smiles sinisterly, grunting through his teeth.

 

BLONDE

You're kidding, right? You're happy about this? I mean, I know you're an easygoing guy, Zack, but even you can't be naive enough to think that you're going to make it out of there alive. I mean...wait, I get it. It's some type of swerve deal, right? Another Zack Malibu masterminded scheme, right? Uh uh, not this time.

 

MALIBU

You know, your paranoia is flattering, if a little unnecessary.

 

BLONDE

No, Zack, what's unnecessary is your treatment of people, people that once considered you a friend, people that were striving to be just as good as you but you couldn't even think of possibly helping someone get at your level. Now it's come full circle, now we ARE amongst the best in the world, and if you're looking forward to next week, then your the first man I've ever met who was looking forward to his funeral.

 

Blonde and Faqu walk past, with Faqu stopping and staring down Malibu. Zack doesn't move, his eyes locked on Faqu with no signs of fear, until the Samoan savage turns and walks away. Zack watches them exit, and a smirk stretches across his face as the scene fades out.
