[Viola Moonlight]

Deadline - 11:59pm, 9th of August (Central Time)​

 

[Silly Willy Nilly Vanilly in the Milly]

Scene begins in a dark, eerie castle. There is a study of sorts with a long, narrow way between the door and the desk of cedar, with portraits of various Dark Romantic authors lining the walls and a blood-red carpet across the floor. The room is pitch-black, save for the four foot-tall candles on the cedar desk. A man of forty years sits at the desk in a tall, tan-colored leather chair; he bears greasy black hair, a scraggly face, and wears huge, horn-rimmed glasses of gold plating. Sounds of thunder and rain pounding down from the sky reverberate throughout the room as a severe storm passes by. The man frowns as he speaks his thoughts.

This storm is fitting for the day. It was this day my beloved departed from me...

A streak of lightning strikes nearby, illuminating the room in its entirety for a split-second, revealing a man-sized bird figure lurking in the corner closest to the door. The man tries to speak, but the thunder drowns him out. After pausing a moment, the man tries again.

Who goes there?

Greetings, kind sir.

I beg your pardon, but who are you? Why are you in my home?

The one in the corner then steps close enough for the candles to illuminate him. He appears to the man to be a man inside a raven costume.

I am called Hrafn. I came in to protect myself from the storm raging outside.

As if on cue, lightning strikes closer to the castle then it did through the entire duration of the storm, with deafening thunder as its accompaniment. The man thinks for a moment, and then looks to Hrafn.

I suppose I can allow you to stay for the night. Where were-

No need, sir. I only need stay until the storm passes.

As you wish. May I ask, though, where were you headed?

I was on my way to the Tokyo Dome in Japan for WZCW's All Stars 2 event. I was in flight, but came down when the storm began.

The man then begins to panic.

In flight? Did the plane crash? Are the other passengers safe? Where-

Hrafn then begins to laugh as he spreads his wings.

There was no plane, sir. I myself was in flight, solo.

The man begins to ridicule Hrafn, but stops himself upon thinking the better of it.

Well, for your safety, I suggest you stay here for the night, and I will bring you to the airport on the morrow so you can catch the next flight to Tokyo. I'll even help pay for the flight if need be.

I appreciate it, but there's no need, thank you.

Well, if you say so.

The man then pauses, trying to think of something to change the subject.

So, All Stars 2, eh? Who's your opponent, or do you not know?

He is called El Genio Verde, or the Green Genius. He is supposed to be some sort of evil comic book genius.

Sounds interesting. How do you plan on taking down such an opponent?

Hrafn appears to hesitate, but keeps his ground.

I'll just try to study his moves and use the best moves against him, I suppose.

Hrafn begins to laugh.

Of course, I highly doubt he's ever faced a flying opponent before.
And when I finish with him, he will wrestle... nevermore.

The man smiles, acknowledging the Poe reference. He then turns to look out his window; the rain and thunder have passed, but sheet lightning still fills the sky.

It seems the storm has passed. Are you sure you can't stay?

I wish I could, but I must leave, as I told you before...

Lightning strikes nearby, and a gust blows in through the window, dousing the candles and causing the room to go pitch-black.

...and you must leave as well, to return...

The sound of glass shattering and the thud of something- or someone- falling reverberates throughout the room.

...nevermore.

Scene ends.

El Genio Verde y El Cuervo en Televisión​

Narrator: Hola, welcome back. When we last left our heroes the dastardly El Genio Verde had just made off with millions of dollars worth of diamonds from the Second National Bank of Mexico. Fear not though, for our hero, El Cuervo, The Raven for our English speaking fans, was hot on his heels.

No, no, no. Not Birdman....No it isn't Harvey Birdman from the classic Hanna Barbera cartoon. He isn't even real. It's just a man who dresses like a giant bird and takes an interest in my criminal escapades.

The voice of El Genio Verde could be heard echoing throughout his lair, build conveniently in the caves under the remains of the ancient city of Chichen Itza. Despite his recent bank robbing success he was in a foul mood.

He adjusted his mask as he looked over the plans for his latest evil invention. Blue prints were scattered all around the table he was sitting at. He looked them over before calling in his assistant.

Puta Madre, get in here, vamanos!

Puta Madre quickly ran into the room. He was a little bit smaller in stature than Genio. He wore a costume similar in design, the only difference being that his was blue.

Yes sir, I came as quickly as I could. I was directing the henchmen on where to store the diamonds. His words were rushed, obviously afraid of upsetting his mentor.

Good work Puta. Genio turned to face his understudy. What would you say is the quickest way to rid yourself of a pest?

Call pest control, maybe the exterminator?

Genio buried his face in his hands. Ah Dios mio!
His voice again echoed through the lair. You suggest I call pest control and reveal the location of our secret lair! Plus The Exterminator is in prison, he was caught two weeks ago trying to steal the world's largest emerald.

Then what do you do sir?

We have to build a machine to rid ourselves of the problem.

I like it. Its simple, we kill the Birdman. I don't think we need to invent a machine though, I mean you can buy a gun almost anywhere these days.

Genio simply shakes his head while sighing. No Birdman, The Raven, or The Rapn, or the Raper, I'm not sure.

He is a rapist! I thought we were the bad guys?

Genio walks over and slaps the back of his assistant's head. No Puta! Its the Latin pronunciation.

Genio walks over to the table and grabs one of the blueprints and returns to his assistant, who has wondered off and grabbed a plasma ray gun off the wall.

We can use this to kill him boss.

No, you idiot, its too simple. We have to do something much more complicated and time consuming. Come, look at this.

Genio clears off a spot on another table and unrolls the blueprint.

We build this.

What is this, sir?

This machine will reverse the polarity rays of the sun. Then when we combine that with the lithium power of the diamonds I stole it will cause the hollow pneumatized bones of all birds on Earth to become magnetized. Then we aim our laser photon cannon at a giant convex reflective surface, positioned so it will deflect into the sun. This will cause the sun to act as a giant magnet, pulling the birds into space and eventually into the sun, where surely they will disintegrate.

Puta stands to the side amazed. Wow sir, will all of those big words this is bound to work. One question, where do we get a giant mirror?

Genio takes a moment to ponder. Well we can't go to New Orleans and use the Superdome, my license was revoked there. He continues to ponder. Ah, I've got it, we can use the Tokyo Dome in Japan.

Excelente sir!

Vamnos, Puta Madre, off to Japan we go.

Many hours and numerous dastardly deeds later​

Here we are, beautiful Tokyo.

Genio takes a moment to look around and take in his surroundings. However, he notices a sign. Welcome to Kyoto

Ah Dios mio! Puta Madre, you fool, you booked our flight to Kyoto Japan.

I'm sorry sir. I can't read Japanese and Tokyo and Kyoto are anagrams, I got confused.

Book us a new flight right away!

A few more Hours but not many dastardly deeds later​

Finally we arrived. I can see the Tokyo Dome from here.

Genio points in the direction of the dome. Puta struggles to adjust his mask and see.

I can't see anything in this mask sir, maybe I could take it off?

No you fool! We have to use the masks to blend in until we get the machine started.

Genio looks around at the numerous normally dressed Japanese residents who stare back at them.

See we fit in perfectly. Now when do the henchmen arrive with our machine?

Puta's eyes widen noticeably.

Great, you forgot to book them didn't you?

Puta nods his head.

Well thanks a lot. Now how am I going to defeat The Raven?

Just then the wind picks up and a flyer lands on Genio's mask. He looks down and reads it.

Hmmm....something something All-Stars....something something wrestling...something something now accepting applications...blah blah blah Tokyo Dome. That's it! I can wrestle him in this All-Stars. It will be el final, the end for my arch rival. I will make sure The Raven flies...nevermore.

Narrator: Tune in next week fans when El Genio Verde y El Cuervo en Televisión presents The Raven vs. El Genio Verde: All-Stars. Same genius time, same genius network. Adios
