A Large form shadowed by a light behind him speaks to another man. Seemingly a bit disturbed at this. He shakes his head and looks at the man nearest him.

Shaman: How in the hell did you talk me into this? Jason answer me damn man!

Jason: **Chuckling** It is for charity man. The children will get a lot of money for this at the hospital.

Shaman: Well at least we all look the part.

Jason: Well at least the make up part looks good.

Shaman: That is what I find scary. Heh let’s get this show going shall we. I am surprised we have the turnout like we do.

Jason: It is almost as if they wanted to see someone else.

Shaman: Well at least my name carries some weight with the crowd.

Jason: Hell everyone knows you can play bass really well too. Maybe we could use that talent this evening.

Shaman: Well we’ll see are the other guys there?

Jason: They are doing the sound test!

Shaman and the man Jason walk to a door as the crowd can be heard creaming loudly and chanting something not quite coherent through the walls.


A few hours later on a stage Four men dressed as Demon, Starman, Catman, and a Spaceman. As heavy guitar rifts blast over the amplifiers. As an announcer walks out and raises his hands as the crowd erupts and roars loudly as the man smiles.

Announcer: Ladies and Gentleman you wanted the best you got the best the hottest new band in the world …Definitely not Kiss!!!

Suddenly rifts begin to blast across the amplifiers as the man in the demon outfit steps forward as he grins and begins to hammer of the ax as the music begins to blast through the amplifiers. He leans forward and begins to sing.

Demon: You got something about you…..You got something I need…Daughter of Aphrodite…Hear my words and take heed!!

The crowd erupts with cheers and gets louder as the demon plays heavy rifts on his Bass as the Spaceman seems to follow on the guitar. As the Demon steps back to the mic and begins to sing again with a deep booming voice.

Demon: I was born on Olympus…To my father a son…I was raised by demons…Trained to reign as the one…

The Demon sways back and rifts on the guitar as he leans back in as the whole band behind him joins in.

Band: God of thunder and…Rock n Roll…The spell your under will rob you of your virgin sooooul!!

The demon leans back as he jams on the Bass as the Starman and the Spaceman step and faces each other and blast riffs back and forth as if in a heavy duel. The Catman beats the drums with a vicious heavy sound as the Demon spreads his hand across the strings on the bass and points to the fans as he steps back to the mic.

Demon: I am the lord of the wastelands ….A modern day man of steel …I gather darkness…..to please me ….And I command you to kneel ……Before the... !!

The Demon stands back once again and this time he sprays blood from his mouth straight up in the air as he steps forward as he looks at the crowd letting the blood drool down his chin and over his chest as he sings the chorus with the band.

Band: God of Thunder and Rock and Roll …..The spell you're under ….Will slowly rob you of your virgin sooooul !!!!

Suddenly the Demon, Spaceman, and Starman stand side by side as they begin to jam together as they lean forwar4d twice and lean backwards twice as they are doing this in unison as the flip their hair over and backwards. The crowd begins to eat this up as they roar to a deafening level as the Demon steps back up to the Mic.

Demon: **Spoken** I am the lord of the wastelands …..A modern day man of steel ….I gather darkness to please me …..And I command thee to kneel …..Before the...!!

Suddenly the whole band kicks in with the chorus as they grow loud and heavy as the crowd begins to cheer and sing along with them.

Band and Crowd: God of Thunder and Rock and Roll ….The spell you're under ….Will slowly rob you of your virgin sooooouuullll!

The Demon steps forward wagging his tongue back and forth as he looks out into the crowd and spreads his arms and points to either side as the crowd roars as the Starman and Spaceman rip through the chords and the Catman hits the drums and symbols as if he had nothing left to lose and he spins the drumsticks and hits the drums as the song ends and he reaches forward and throws the drumsticks out into the crowd. As he stands and walks forward around the drumset and stands with the rest of the band and they all raise their hands into they air and bow in unison as the pyro flames explode and they leave as the announcer comes walking out as the crowd is loud and roaring.

Announcer: Ladies and Gentleman that was Definetly not Kiss!!!

Crowd: Encore…… Encore…….. Encore!!

Backstage the Band members sit down and begin removing the wigs and some of the make up as Shaman removes just the bottom of his Make up as he is wearing the Demon make up and leather.

Shaman: Thanks guys I actually enjoyed doing that!

Jason:**Dressed as the Starman** You did awesome. Guess all that Karaoke paid off!

Shaman: Must have especially where I enjoy singing a lot of rock stuff!

Jason: Oh Shaman man the WWA camera crews are here and they were filming this!

Shaman looks over his shoulder casually and shakes his head.

Shaman: Should have told me earlier. Anyways what’s up WWA? Guess your wondering why I never mentioned I can play the Bass or even doing a Kiss impersonation band? That is simple it is for charity and I was having fun. Something some of you very seldom see. Had to find a way to unwind from the aspect of knowing the Brawl is just around the corner. I am waiting to fight , But everyone needs some down time. I decided my down time is a way to raise some money for charity.

Jason and the other band mates begin to speak amongst themselves as the announcer walks in and leans in speaking to them. Shaman looks over and notices this as he wipes the make up off of his face.

Shaman: Good show to say the least. Not as good as Birthday Bash is going to be. I am going to have fun for once with that. I have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Too many opponents to mention in one sentence and a lot more to say than one interview. I am willing to accept beating the crap out of each and everyone of my opponents to gain what I want. This time what I want is respect from those idiots who plan to stop me.

Shaman stops as Jason looks over at him and chuckles a bit.

Jason: Uhm Shaman your agent says George Lucas just called and left a message. They want you to play a role in the Star Wars movie.

Shaman:**Excited** Really that’s great. What role is it? Imperial Commander or howabout a Dark Jedi or even a Jedi Knight?

Jason begins to chuckle a bit as he hands him a piece of paper.

Shaman: Cool what do they want me to play?

Shaman opens it as his expression changes from excitement to a bit of disappointment.

Shaman: They want me to play a Wookie? A damn huge hairball with attitude and rage?

Jason: Well you are a huge native American with attitude and rage. Can’t be much of a switch.

Shaman: Man my acting career is in the pits. I am just glad I am still doing what I do best in the WWA.

Jason: And that is?

Shaman: Kicking ass and taking names later!

Shaman begins walking away as he shakes his head and shrugs.

Shaman: I guess I can be a wookie in his film. It is an acting job after all. Probably my luck it’d be a dying wookie.

Shaman walks to his Chevrolet Suburban and enters it and starts it up as he turns on the radio as Love Gun by Kiss blasts over the speakers as he taps his hands on the steering wheel to the music.

Shaman: Much is going on in my life, But hell I am going to enjoy it. Come Birthday Bash either it is going to break me or I am going to break it. I am tired of being left in the dust after a great reign. Now it is my time. My time is now. Forget the rest of the WWA. Remember me folks. Come Birthday Brawl everyone is going to pay attention or get a black eye and a bunch of bloodied stumps for looking away. It is time I return to who I really am.

Quietly Shaman drops the Suburban into drive and burns rubber heading down the street his mind with the thoughts of Birthday Bash on his mine as the camera begins to fade out to the loud tune of Love Gun by Kiss.
