Bones and Furious Steele

[Furious Steele]

(Scene opens backstage in the Underground Promotion locker room. Tommy Bones is pacing back and forth with a wild look in his eyes. He is wearing black slacks, a purple silk shirt that shows off his muscular upper body and his long flowing blond hair is in a pony tail. Bones still has the now defunct TV tile draped over his shoulder. Furious Steele is slumped in a chair that is leaning on the wall with his head down. Steele's long black straggly hair is soaking wet with sweat and is covering his face. He is wearing his typical black sleeveless "I Hate You" t-shirt, torn blue jeans and black army boots. His hands are taped up like a boxer, and his arms are covered with scars from his years of hardcore matches.)

Bones: This is a big week for us. You got a match against Dr. Smith with a chance to advance in the Cyber tournament and get a title shot at Troy Boy. I got big plans for Wicked Clown, revenge to plan against Shmegal and a federation to keep on the top of the world. I need you to do your part and beat Dr. Smith. I NEED that title for my collection.

(Steele sits motionless in his chair while Bones continues to pace back and forth. Bones gets agitated by the lack of response from Steele and stands over him.)

Bones: You have obligations to make due on. You have a job to do and I expect you to do it.

(Steele slowly looks up at Bones, but his eyes are covered by his hair but the scowl on his face is very clear.)

Steele: Furious Steele is completely aware of our arrangement. When does Steele get his toy to play with?

Bones: We don't have time to deal with him right now. We have important business to attend too!!!!

(Steele blurs out of his seat and in a flash has Bones lifted off the crowd by his throat while pinned against the locker. Steele gets right in Bones face and speaks very softly to Bones while he gasps for air.)

Steele: Furious Steele has won the Obsession Challenge, has won you the TV title, and has forged you into a position of power in this company. Underground Promotion has become the standard of the federation. You have gotten your screen time, and the attention that you covet. Now it is your time to give Furious Steele what he is owed. Furious Steele has gotten you everything that you desired. Furious Steele can easily take that all away from you.

(Steele releases Bones from his grasp and Bones falls to the ground gasping for air. After gathering himself Bones gets back on his feet and looks a little rattled. )

Bones:I am a man of POWER in the world of wrestling. HOW DARE YOU PUT YOUR HANDS ON ME ?!?!??!

(Steele gets right back in the face of Bones and stares at him for several seconds. You can feel the tension in the air and it seems like Steele is going to strike at any second. Finally Bones backs down and backs away from Steele. Bones appears to have regained his composure and has that little smirk back on his face.)

Bones: Alright, I can be reasonable about this. You have done your job to this point so lets be fair about this. Here is the offer. You beat Dr. Smith tonight and next week you can start playing with your toy.

Steele: Dr. Smith will suffer tonight at the hands of Furious Steele.

Bones: Alright deal. I am off to ringside to deal with Wicked Clown.

(Scene cuts with Bones quickly leaving the locker room. )
