KRISUS

"You'll be the victim, all your life."

Wednesday from Addams Family: Values

{9 Months Earlier.....}

Lightning strikes and thunder roars as a heavy storm slowly passes by, overhead, in the late night hours. High winds blow, nearly knocking over old trees and power poles, as a weather report comes over a truck radio.

"Severe thunderstorm warnings are to be extended until 2:00A.M. with the possibility of tornados. Anyone in the surrounding counties is urged to remain in doors and away from windows. If you are already out in this weather it is recommended you find a safe, secure, area to be until these storms blow over."

The radio knob clicks as it is turned off.

Krisus: Shut the hell up! You never know what you are talking about.

Krisus drives his truck down a curvy road, at rather high speeds. He reaches over towards the passenger seat. A half empty bottle of Wild Turkey sloshes as Krisus picks it up and takes a drink. A lightning bolt streaks across the sky as he makes a hard right turn. The back tires spin, barely able to stay on the road. Krisus steps on the accelerator, sending his truck flying down the road. Taking another swig of Wild Turkey, Krisus goes to lower the bottle but the bottle accidentally nicks the steering wheel. The bottle falls to the truck floor spilling everywhere, filling the truck with it's aroma.

Krisus: Damn it!

Krisus reaches down, to grab the bottle. Just as Krisus grasps the bottle a lightning bolt hits to the right rear of the truck, sending the truck flying in the air. The truck rolls down a slight decline. It turns 3-4 times before it comes to a violent stop when the front hood nails a tree. The truck leans against the tree, sideways, with the drivers side door against the ground. Krisus, bleeding heavily from his face, seems to be unconscious as he is not moving. Gas begins to leak from the engine and gas tank, running out all over the ground.

Krisus: Err....ahhhh.......

Krisus slowly starts to regain consciousness. As he does a spark, from inside the truck, sparks a small fire. However, the gas is spreading and growing closer towards the fire. Krisus wipes blood from his face and looks around. Krisus notices the fire, under the hood, and can smell the gas leaking from the truck.

Krisus: Shit!

Krisus attempts to break through the windshield, that is already partially cracked. Krisus punches and kicks at the windshield, but it fails to break of budge any further. As the gas grows closer Krisus reaches up for the passenger door, but the door is jammed shut as it was messed up in the wreck. The leaking gas catches fire, and it quickly ignites the entire truck. Trapped inside, Krisus can be heard yelling as the fire begins to engulf the cab. Lightning continues to streak through the sky and rain pours to the ground; however not enough to extinguish the flames. A lightning bolt strikes the burning truck making the fire worse, and causing the screaming, once heard from Krisus, cease.

{1 Month Ago......}

A door swings open to a hospital room. Dozens of beds, with coma stricken patients filling them, are lined up and down the walls. A nurse leaves the room, after just giving one of them a sponge bath. A TV hangs on the wall, just outside of the room, with the local news playing.

News Broadcaster: Police have finally captured the suspect wanted for 5 homicides, and two rapes, in the local area. When apprehended the suspect, shockingly, gave herself up without a fight.

The views slowly moves down the the foot of the bed, closest to the door of the room. A chart hangs from the end of the bed with the name "Krisus" on the top of it. The person in the bed, hooked up to an I.V. and breathing machine, is heavily wrapped in burn treatment bandages. His eye lids are the only thing really visible, which are completely motionless. The view slowly goes back towards the television, as the broadcaster finishes up on last story.

News Broadcaster: And in a shocking revelation, TNT Wrestling is planning to reopen its doors.

The heart monitor, the person in the bed is hooked up to, jumps in beats. Slight movement under the eye lids can be seen.

News Broadcaster: Popular fan excess has gotten the TNT business flowing, once again. The owners have announced the start of the development for the rebirth, and they seem very positive with the idea.

The heart monitor is going off the charts. The persons eye lids are twitching. All the sudden the eyes, that have been closed for over half a year, burst open. The eyes, colorless and lifeless, look, as if, in a trance.

 {20 Minutes Later......}

A nurse, wearing the traditional white uniform and hat, is walking down the hall. She walks, no so enthusiastically, towards the Coma Treatment room.

Nurse: Another sponge bath for another someone, who doesn't even know or care if he or she is dirty or not. I'm so glad I went through 6-7 years of college for this.

The nurse reaches the door and, without a thought, swings it open. She walks in and heads to the schedule for sponge baths.

Nurse: Lets see......Krisus is tonight's lucky winner. Krisus......what a name. Okay, big boy. Let's go! Like you will ever wake up, as it is. Don't even know how you aren't brain dead.

The nurse gets the equipment ready. She turns and heads to the bed, but stops in her tracks.. A look of horror over takes her face. On the bed, where the patient once was, is nothing but a blanket and some bandage. The nurse looks around, scarred and worried.

Nurse: Oh my God! Oh my God......he's awake.

The nurse looks around, making sure she has a clear shot to the door. After a few seconds the nurse makes a mad dash towards the door. Just as she is about to make it she is tripped. She lands directly on her face, causing her nose to start gushing blood. She looks down at the blood streaming from her face. Frantic, she starts to scream but she is cut off as a hand wraps around her throat and yanks her up. The nurse shuts her eyes, in fear. However, the hand around her neck squeezes causing her to open her eyes.

Nurse: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

 {Following Sunday Night Mayhem}

Backstage people are scrambling to gather up the equipment from the show. TNT workers are going over every little detail, making sure nothing is over looked or left behind. Wrestlers are finishing with showers and packing their bags, getting ready to head out. Congratulations are being given; hatred and anger are being dealt. TNT employee's avoid the disputes amongst the wrestlers, as they continue taking apart, and gathering, equipment.

TNT Employee(Will): Hey! Dave, did you check the back halls for anything?

TNT Employee(Dave): Huh...?

TNT Employee: Fuck......nothing. I'll deal with it.

Will makes his way towards the back halls, to collect left over equipment from the show. He passes fellow workers and wrestlers on the way. He reaches his destination and starts gathering anything he sees, that was left behind.

TNT Employee: I swear.....so much is here. How can they miss this much? If it wasn't for me we'd lose so much money in missing parts.

Will starts picking up things, quickly realizing that there is to much for him to deal with.

TNT Employee: Crap! I'm going to need some help.

The employee carries what he can and begins walking back towards the main area. As he makes a turn, down the halls, he notices something moving in a dark corner of the building. At last second glance he sees, what appears to be, the shape of a hand moving into the shadows.

TNT Employee: Hello? Dave, is that you? You better not be playing around when I am trying to gather up stuff you left behind.

Putting some force behind his steps he walks towards the shadows.

TNT Employee: Now get out here and hel.....

The hand, Will saw, bursts from the darkness and wraps around his throat. It appears to be heavily scarred, with bottom layer of skin more visible than normal. Will struggles for air, as the hand keeps its tight grip on him. As he tries to free himself the other hand reaches out with a folded piece of paper. The person, in the shadows, crams the paper into Will's hand.

TNT Employee: Wha....*cough* what's th...this?

The man in the shadows leans forward, just enough for Will to see his eyes. Will's eyes grow huge. The man shoves Will back away from him, and steps back into the shadows, seeming to disappear.

 {Moments Later...}

The main area is almost packed, and everyone is starting to get ready to leave.

TNT Employee: Has anyone seen will?

A second later Will is seen running from towards Dave, seemingly scared white.

TNT Employee: Will...what's wrong?

Will, unable to speak, falls to the ground collecting his breath.

TNT Employee: Will......what is it?

Will reaches up with the paper, handing it to Dave. Dave grabs the paper from Will and opens it up.

"Welcome to your worst nightmare! I'm back, Krisus"
