AK runs as if on wings, pushing back her fatigue as she dashes to her locker room. She rounds the corner, and skids to a halt; her jaw practically drops.
There aren’t many men who could take Reg and Ron in a brawl; so it’s fair to summarise that there was either an overwhelming number of assailants, or that they were exceptionally tough and skilled. Reg is out for the count, bruised and with a bleeding lip; Ron slumps against the wall, his temple oozing with crimson liquid. AK’s first thought is fleeting relief that no bladed weapons or firearms seem to have been used, not that this is of much comfort to Ron himself.
AK runs up and gives him a shake; she needs to know what she’s up against.
AK: Ron? RON! Get with it love, tell me what happened? Was it Torak? Where’s Victor, I need to know if he’s-
Ron coughs, and shakes his head.
Ron: Nah… I ain’t seen your other half or the big bastard. There were at least half a dozen of them, they wasn’t even blokes… more like kids, but not like any fuckin’ kids I’ve ever seen.
AK looks confused, and Ron shakes his head.
Ron: We let him watch… the match… in with us. I told you…that kid…
In an instant AK realizes enough of what’s happened to be off and running again; a glance through the busted door to her temporary locker room reveals devastation and evidence of a fight inside. Ron coughs again.
Ron:….he were trouble, alright.

Dashing through the backstage, AK feels as if her arms and legs are about to fall off; her energy reserves are all but exhausted, and she barely notices the chaos all around, passing by Ginger’s office which now has the entirety of the remaining Senatorial stable inside it desperately trying to find out from a pale-looking Gingerdude what on earth is happening. Just when she thinks her lungs may burst, she reaches the door to the outside and charges through it.
The darkness is thick and cloying, the rain freezing against her hot skin. She looks around, and then sees the two vehicles, making her heart almost stop there and then.
The small, struggling figure is bound and gagged; he writhes, his face a mask of fear as the other young men load him wordlessly and emotionlessly into the back of the van. A man with vivid blonde hair shuts the doors firmly, and walks over to the other vehicle, a large and rather old sedan. The back seats fill up with his accomplices, and he knocks on the window; it is wound down, to reveal… the woman Hunter knows as Mrs. Smith.
Mrs. Smith: I trust you made as little an impression as possible?
The blonde haired man nods.
Peter: We just had to wait for him to go somewhere sufficiently quiet for us to be able to act. There were a couple of people in the way, but we “reasoned” with them.
Mrs. Smith: You have done well. Now, let us leave this…
She shudders.
Mrs. Smith:…savage place, for good. We have what we came for.
Peter nods, and walks off, getting into the driver’s seat of the van. AK is already walking forward, though she isn’t close enough to hear what was said… and as she comes nearer, she suddenly sees the figure in the passenger seat of the sedan clearly.
It’s the young woman she saw Hunter talking to earlier. A terrible possibility hits AK – could these people who are trying to take Eric have snatched Hunter, as well?
AK starts to run, and tries to shout.
AK: HEY! You there, stop! You can’t just…
She has no breath and no voice, and the match and its after-effects have left her too weak to reach the vehicles in time. Their lights flare, and they pull away, speeding up as they swing out of the parking lot.
The rain beats down; AK is soaked through, and the cold chills her to the bone. The water seems to make even her white ring wear dull and stained.
Shivering, she tries to think, about what Eric told her, and what she has seen, but she has no answers. The sense of failure that hits her then is far more acute than any connected to her match loss…
??: Chula!
She might have stood there forever, but for her at least help is at hand. Latino runs up with a coat in his hands and throws it around her, and AK lets him hold her for a moment, a tear or two mingling with the drops of dark water running down her face.
Latino puts his arm around her, and gently leads her inside out of the storm… but something tells AK that this maelstrom is only just beginning to make itself felt.
In the arena, the fans are preparing to leave; the show cameras lie abandoned, focused still on the World Title belt as it lies on the shattered ring surface.
When, or even if, its owner will be able to reclaim it, no one knows. But one thing is certain; sinister forces are at work, both inside and outside of ACW… and some of them have not yet revealed themselves, even now.
The true horror is still yet to come…
Fade to Black.
End of Show.

One amazing PPV with some great matches and a great ending. A double win also places this show a notch higher for me. Good job everyone.

Another excellent show behind us and it was a tough choice for my favorites but I eventually decided that my favorite match was the Triple Threat match.
Favorite promo of the show goes to BK for the Vending Machine Massacre.
Onto Genocide we go...
