Chuck Myles has decreed that all pairings in the Mentorship Program will be taking on each other in singles competition. The one problem though is that Krypto has two mentors and cannot fight in a handicap match. To solve this problem, James Howard from Strikeforce will be taking the tag team champions place in fighting Krypto. Bad blood has been spilled considering the tag team titles as Howard's partner Stormrage has been put on the injured list and will be looking to find out who committed the crime... starting off with the quirky Krypto.
Deadline is 11:59pm Central Time, Wednesday 24th October. Extensions as per thread.

Trick or treat, smell my feet; please give Krypto something to eat!
Krypto: What is going on?!
Krypto struggles but to no avail as he is tightly in the grip of the bounty hunter known as The Reaper in the backseat of a limo. Across from them is republican presidential nominee Clint Romney, his running mate John Ryan and his wife Sarah Romney who seem to be a little shocked at an up close glimpse of Krypto.
Romney: Its nice to finally meet you Krypto.
Krypto: You ..you are that human that wishes to cause harm upon me and my masters!
Romney: Krypto I dont wish to cause harm upon anyone, especially you. In fact youre my ticket to the white house. The more chaos and anarchy you and your idiotic friends cause the more the public begins to lose faith in Obamas control over maniacs such as yourself.
Krypto continues to squirm and begins to slightly cry like a lost infant at the situation at hand.
Reaper: You might as well not fight it you freak.
Krypto: Youre that one human who tried to put me in that scary bag.
Romney: Yes hes an associate of mine who Ive asked to get a one on one meeting with you Krypto. His services werent being fully utilized so I decided to hire him. But thats not what I want to talk about right now Krypto.
Krypto: Then what do you want sharply dressed human?
Romney: Give me your alien technology.
Krypto and Reaper simultaneously stop their struggle and look up at the corrupt politician.
WHAT?
Romney: You heard me, tell me where your futuristic alien machinery is hidden now!
Reaper: You .you actually think hes an alien?
Krypto: I am an alien; Im from the galaxy nebula ..
Romney: Hired guns are paid to be seen not heard Mr. Reaper. And yes I have reason to believe Krypto is indeed from outer space. You think I actually care about running for president? I dont care if I win, sure it makes my job easier but its not number one priority, as of now Krypto is. My running mate, my supposed wife and I are from the Global Alliance of Radical Bioterrorism Assaults of Geographic Entities.
Krypto: So your organizations name is G.A.R.B.A.G.E ?
Romney: Sigh .if your one of those types of people then sure, but thats not the point! Krypto here has done a very good job in fooling the millions of fans in WZCW that he is indeed not an alien and just some lunatic in a costume, but the leader of my organization knows better.
Sarah: We have reason to believe Kryptos species has sufficient weaponry that can be useful in our um ..future endeavors.
Reaper: Are .are you guys serious?
Krypto: We are a peaceful race, we dont wish harm upon you humans nor shall we help any of you destroy each other.
John: Bring us to your leader Krypto!
Romney: Calm down now John, you know the boss has firmly stated we cant physically hurt him until we know where his spaceship is.
John: Im sick of waiting, Im sick of this presidential election Im sick of Fox News, and Im sick of this alien pretending to be cute and innocent when we all know hes helping his planet prep for an invasion! If he doesnt tell us what we want to know hes going to be harmed.
Right as Ryan snaps out of his seatbelt to attack Krypto a huge muscle car slams into the limo sending it crashing and flipping on the other side of the street. All passengers seem to be unconscious. Krypto is soon pulled out of the wreckage by a blonde haired buff looking man wearing what seems to be a soldiers uniform. Krypto begins to stir after the crash as he is met by the soldier.
??? : Krypto are you okay?
Krypto: Maybe, I think, I dont really know what you humans consider pain anymore. Who are you anyway?
Chris: My name is Special agent Christopher Stone, Ive been sent by the International Corporation for Universal Protection Program. We believe your species is being hunted by a dangerous organization who wishes to use your weaponry for harm against the planet Earth.
Krypto: So your initials are are I.C.U.P.P?
Chris chuckles a bit.
Chris: I guess if you want to call it that then yes. But thats not the point; we have to get you to a safe area before ..
Romney: Christopher Stone .
Romney, Sarah, and Ryan all emerge from the wreckage unscathed as if it almost didnt even happen.
Chris: Clint Romney
Sarah: Youve gotten in our way long enough Chris, hand over the alien or else well finally finish you once and for all!
Leon: Ill never let you destroy this planet, run Krypto!
Still with the relay match on his mind Krypto proceeds to sprint for blocks thinking there is a finish line ahead. He turns around to see Leon being stomped by Romney, Ryan, and Sarah and proceeds to continue running.
About 24 hours after Apocalypse
Krypto: Oh yeah all in your face whats up all through you waist!
Krypto is seen at Saxton/Saboteur tower jumping all over place after his Relay match win badly attempting to sing the lyrics of Saboteur and Saxtons theme song while the tag team champions discuss other matters.
Saxton: Will you sit down fool!
Krypto: Master Saxton you seem angry, but did you and Saboteur not retain your championships and I not beat all the other rookies?
Saxton: Yes fool you did beat those sucka rookies and we did walk away with our championships, but not in the way we intended.
Saboteur: That maniac MMA lover James Howard interrupted our smackdown of the New Church and hit me pretty good with a steel chair.
Krypto: Let me sooth your pain Saboteur with this beautiful melody off this piece of human technology you people call a cell phone.
[YOUTUBE]6VMOXzjdbXM[/YOUTUBE]
Saboteur: Oh god stop! For the love of all that is holy please turn that off. What type of heartless monster would ever enjoy that type of music?
Krypto: I believe its the human known as James Howards theme music.
Saboteur: Oh, well that makes sense. Only wannabe mixed martial arts emotionally disturbed former champions listen to that.
Krypto: Well if you didnt enjoy that how about this.
Krypto struggles to use and understand the phone in his hands and after a couple of seconds that seem like forever and impatient and irritated looks from both Saboteur and Saxton Krypto is eventually able to turn on the intended music.
[YOUTUBE]QLwjDigdM6k[/YOUTUBE]
Saxton: What is this garbage sucka?!
Krypto: This is your awesome theme music isnt it Saxton?
Saxton attempts to grab Krypto and shut off the Cosby parody of his song but Krypto cartwheels and shuffles around the room jamming out to the song. Eventually Saxton swears and give up and the music is interrupted by an alert going off on Kryptos new phone.
Krypto: Oh, it looks as if Ive gotten something called a text message from Lars. He says that it was announced on the human social media palace of WZCW.com that I have been schedule for a match against James Howard this week.
Saboteur and Saxton shoot each other a confused look conflicted about whether or not they should be happy that Howard has the possibility of the seriously injuring their not wanted rookie due to his anger issues as of late or sad they dont have a chance at Strikeforce this week.
Before either of the tag champs can utter a word Krypto interrupts them with a badly executed front flip leading to him falling on his face but immediately returning to his feet like nothing happened.
Krypto: Dont worry master Saboteur, I shall avenge you! I will defeat this James Howard and I will show him nobody messes with my masters!
Saxton: Were not your masters you small, weird looking sucka.
Saboteur: Where is this confidence coming from Krypto? Ive never seen you like this.
Krypto: I dont know, ever since my first win and then when I beat all the rookies I guess its just .
Kryptos words are cut off by the rumblings and a noise coming from what seems to be his stomach.
Krypto: What is this tingling sensation Im feeling?
The noises continue to get louder and angrier.
Krypto: It feels so weird, its controlling my midsection!
The grumblings and noises continue and Krypto begins freaking out.
Krypto: Am I doing what you humans call giving birth? Im not ready to be a mother .or father, Im only twelve!
Saxton smacks Krypto on the back to get him to calm down.
Saxton: Calm down sucka, that feeling in your stomach is what us humans call hunger. And Ill feed you a nice Saxton knuckle sandwich!
Saxton develops a sick grin as he clenches his fist and launches his hand right at Kryptos face but just before it touches him Saxton is stopped by Saboteur.
Saboteur: Wait Ive got an idea, Kryptos hunger has reminded me its Halloween! Therefore why not use him to get the maximum amount of candy this year! I can see it now, an alien, a superhero, and a muscular black man step to your door; you have no choice but give up all your delicious treats!
Saxton: Fine, but after youre done with your candy adventure Im going to deliver my own special treats to any foxy ladies who open their front door if you know what Im saying.
Saxton then yells in pain as Krypto bites the still clenched fist that is just hanging in front the hungry alien.
Saxton: Krypto!!!!!!!
Krypto: Sorry, I cant control this hunger, it makes me do evil things. I apologize
Five minutes later
Saxton, Saboteur, and Krypto arrive at the front door of a home on a suburban looking street, Saboteur with a huge shopping cart looking to be filled with candy, Saxton still nursing his bitten hand, and Krypto crawling behind them almost dying of hunger. Saboteur rings the bell and begins jumping up and down excited for candy. The door opens up to a housewife with a huge bowl of candy smiling until the sight of a creepy, watering at the mouth Saboteur, a disgruntled Saxton, and a half dead Krypto appear on her doorstep.
Housewife: Arent you two a little old to be trick or treating?
Saboteur: Oh, were just here to supervise our uh child here, hes the one dressed in an alien costume.
Housewife: Awww, its nice to finally have a homosexual couple in the neighborhood, my names Patty whats yours?
Saxton: Listen here Patty, Action Saxton has never been and never will be a man lover, Saboteur is not my wife and this half-dead alien weirdo is not my son, now give my friend here his candy so I can come inside and make sweet love to you like your husband never could!
Patty: Um .okay.
Patty attempts to dump the bowl of candy in the shopping cart but a muscular ten year old with a Mohawk and a Strikeforce t-shirt swoops in and steels the bowl and runs off.
Saboteur: Who was that?
Saxton: That sucka looked like a midget James Howard!
Krypto: Need human consumption
Saboteur looks devastated but Krypto still aching in pain urges him to continue his quest for tasty treats as Saxton shrugs and puts Patty on her shoulders and walks up the stairs in the house to what we can only assume is the bedroom. Saboteur and Krypto continue on house after house but the large Strikeforce loving child continues every time to thwart their plans for candy when he steals it and runs off. Eventually Saboteur and a struggling to breathe Krypto whos being pushed around in the empty shopping cart catch up to the child while hes on the prowl for his next theft.
Saboteur: Hey!
The child turns around and stands up to Saboteur with no fear.
Saboteur: Who do you think you are stealing candy from people?!
Butch: My names Butch, and I do what I want, and you better respect my authoritah!
Saboteur: Who are you even supposed to be for Halloween?
Butch: Im James Howard, one half of the best tag team in WZCW history, Strikeforce. Wait a minute .youre Saboteur!
Saboteur: Yup, Im one half of the tag team cha .
Butch delivers a stiff punch to the gut of Saboteur and he falls to his knees.
Butch: Its because of you Strikeforce arent champs anymore! I hate you!
Saxton arrives on the scene sweaty from what we can assume is a sexual encounter with Patty. He sees his tag team partner and rookie seemingly at the mercy of a ten year old but ignores it when he seems another hot housewife giving candy away on her front door.
Saboteur: But we beat Strikeforce, how are they be better than us?
Butch: You mightve beaten Mikey Stormage to steal the belts but youve never beaten James Howard, the captain of team Strikeforce.
Krypto: Hey Im facing James Howard this week arent I?
Butch quickly kicks the shopping cart down the suburban hill sending Krypto crashing into a huge group of kids leaving their candy scattered but a huge chunk somehow landed in Kryptos mouth.
Saboteur: Hey, only I can do that to my rookie!
Butch: If you think that was bad just wait till you see what James Howard does to him, theres no way a creepy freak who thinks hes from outer space will ever beat a former champion. And when hes done with your pathetic friend Stormage will be back and Strikeforce will take back the Tag team titles!
Butch shoves Saboteur into Saxton whos chatting up a lady on the front porch and they both are sent hurtling into the bushes.
Saxton: Move sucka!
Saboteur: I cant! Theres a thorn in a sensitive area!
Butch chuckles and looks to do more damage to the trapped tag team champions but suddenly Krypto becomes rejuvenated after swallowing down the candy and the wrappers whole. He sprints up the hill at an amazing speed and tackles Butch to the ground. He delivers a stiff kick to the face of the ten year old sending his face crashing down on the pavement.
Other Housewife: Oh my god, that kid in alien costume just assaulted that child!
The housewife runs inside the house to call the police as Krypto picks up Butchs basket of candy and chugs it all down while his mentors watch from the bushes.
Saboteur: No, Krypto no! That was my Halloween candy!
Krypto: Im sorry masters but I have an insatiable hunger now. After I beat Scott Williams I was ready for more competition, and then after beating all the other rookies and proving how much better I am then them, Im hungry for better competition.
Krypto looks down at the fallen and most likely unconscious Butch.
Krypto: This small humans calculations were right, people thought I couldnt do anything and would never go anywhere when I first came to planet but now after beating all the other combatants at the Relay match I know I can do better, Im going to what you and Saxton couldnt and Im going to beat James Howard. And after that I want more, Im hungry and I want more!
Saxton: Help us out of this bush you fool!
Krypto: FEED ME MORE!
The tag team champions are still stuck in the bush as Krypto continues eating candy bars and wrappers in the middle of the street as it seems he is being watched from a far, through binoculars.
Romney: Target confirmed sir, shall I proceed?
??? : Of course, I want him secured this time. And if he doesnt tell us where is advanced technology is, I want him disposed of, permanently!
