Punishment. A means of causing a penalty to those who do wrong, a way to make the bad regretful of their sins. Commonly violent, punishment can either be effective in fulfilling its aims, or completely useless. Often this will depend on whom it is that is doing the punishing�

The scene opens after so long. The camera pans around, its contrast hastily adjusting to numb the bright colors so that the scene comes into focus. The strong rays of the sun above are reflecting beautifully off golden sands that stretch for miles, littered with deck chairs and sunscreens, parasol umbrellas and poorly constructed castles of sand. Waves wash up onto the sand, large cliffs of rock in the background. It is clear that the scene is being broadcast from a beach, though the question �why?� still remains.

The camera pans the idyllic scene, showing the masses of tourists enjoying their time on the sands or within the waves of the sea. Suddenly the scene goes dark though, a screen of black and nothing more. The camera instantly zooms out, revealing that it had been inadvertently focused in on the dark lens of a pair of sunshades. The shades belong to a grown man with a widely grinning face topped with long blonde hair, wearing only a pair of red, tartan shorts, lacking a shirt of any sort, and with a leather belt topped with gold plates limp over his shoulder. On his back is a traveling rucksack of red, blue and green. The man is, without a shadow of a doubt, the ICWF Television Champion; The Jackrabbit. The champion now runs forward, almost skipping, and taps on the camera lens, calling into it as though it might hear him.

THE JACKRABBIT: �Howdy �Rabbit Fans and �Rabbit Fans alike, yo yos and listen up �cos ready or not, here comes The Jackrabbit! Hahahaha! Been a while ain�t it, hm? Yups, last time you saw my cute little face on your television sets (may I remind y�all that I am the Television Champion, after all!), was at the Papa View, Masters of the Mat� and, hehehe, The Jackrabbit� that�s me!� was whooping El Thingador all over the Dingador and leaving him in a crumble heap of Stingador! Hehe! Nobody who is nobody who was once anybody thinked that The Jackrabbit would win that match, but I certainly showed �em all that I really am the Overdog� uhh� Underpuppy. Yes, The Jackrabbit is an underpuppy and there ain�t nothing even Thingador or even Joshy, the super de duper World Champino!, can do �bout it. Well sure, Sully beated me but he always does that and it�s not even funny now or nothing. Methinks he has super powers that makes him special against Jackrabbits, but no matter �cos when me finds the secret source the amulet leads me to, then I will have Sully-beating powers, arghahahaha!!!�

With that said, The Jackrabbit pulls out the amulet he found so long ago in the crypts of Talon�s deceased, which had been neatly hidden in his pocket. The piece of jewelry shined brightly under the sun; despite Talon claiming it to be worthless, The Jackrabbit knew better. The Jackrabbit knew that it would lead him to some hidden and long lost treasure that contained infinite power.

Humming happily to himself now, The Jackrabbit continued his journey, skipping across the sandy beach and staring at the amulet as if it were somehow guiding him. This was probably the reason that he collided with a little boy�s sandcastle, falling head over heels into the sand. The child naturally burst into tears as his sand creation was flattened beneath a two-hundred and sixty pound man. The little boy hopped to his feet and ran off in the direction of his parents, �busy� sunbathing, screaming at the top of his lungs as The Jackrabbit clambered to his feet, dusting sand from himself.

CHILD: �Muuuuuuuummy! He smashed my castle!! He�s nasty, punish him, mummy!�

THE JACKRABBIT: �Punish me? Hehehehe. I didn�t know that kid�s mummy was The Punisher. How silly is that? Answer: Very silly. Very silly indeedy. Mistah Odjie tells me I is gunna be fighting with Punisher at the next Papa View� we gots lots of Papa Views in a row lately �cos Odjie says they are lots more fun than the normal shows. Anywhos, I�m fighting this Punisher dude at Bad Blood �prolly cos he wants my title and �cos he lost to Trentey so he�s all ticked and stuff. Well he�s gunna be even more ticked afterwards when The Jackrabbit beats him and stays being Television Champ. Since Pun came �ere to ICWF he ain�t beat nobodies, right? Well if I are right, then mewonders why he is taking a shot at my title all of a sudden? Oh well, maybe Odjie just wanted to see Punisher get slapped silly for losing to Trent? Coulds be�

Seems daft though that I has to fight another comic book superhero�. First Spidey, now The Punisher? This is getting silly don�t you think �Rabbit Fans? Well The Jackrabbit� that�s me!� thinks this is silly. Spidey can stick to walls and shoot webs and stuff, and Punisher� uhh� uhm� well actually, I dunno what Pun can do. Methinks he gots big guns. But guns ain�t gonna help Pun at Bad Blood �cos this is wrestling, and when you wrestle, you gotta go punch punch punch kick Last Laugh pin! That simple, really!! Hehe, Punisher won�t even be able to pull his gun out and play with it by the time The Jackrabbit has jumped on top of him. Hehehe! And who does Punisher think he�s gunna be punishing, �sactly? The Jackrabbit ain�t done nothin� wrong, so I don�t need punishing� busting kiddie�s sandcastles don�t count!!� Sully mayhap needs punishing for always winning stuff, and Kali Killer needs punishing for losing to Joshy, and El Thingador should be punished for making a big entrance and then acting like a total flop� but The Jackrabbit, ooooooooh no, The Jackrabbit is doing just fine at being the reigning, winning, ubertastic Television Champion of the Woooooorld! Arghahahaha, see Pun-Pun� the blood won�t be bad at Bad Blood� it will be good �cos it won�t be mine, t�will be yours� so I �spose, since you be doing all the bleedings, I should ask Mistah Odjie to rename the event to Good Blood� remind me, won�t ya?�

Finally free of all the sand, The Jackrabbit begins to run off across the beach, finally arriving at an ice cream stand. Almost in a fit of hysteria, The Jackrabbit gets himself a cone of icecream, scoops of several flavors piled high. Suddenly he feels a tugging on his trademark T-shirt and responds by looking around. Stood there with a wide frown on his small freckled face stands the same boy who had Jackrabbit destroy his sandcastle�

CHILD: �Please mister, I needs your help!�

THE JACKRABBIT: �Need my help? Well lil �Rabbit Fan I �spose I could helps you if I didn�t have a Punisher and a tag team match at Bad Blood to worry about� see kiddy-wink, in a few days The Jackrabbit will be defending his, that�s my, Television belt �gainst this goofy comic book hero. And he, that�s I, will be fightings two� not one, not seven billion, but two� chappies with Tal to gets us a shot at the Tag Team belts. That�s like sharing, which is good, except with ice cream, chocolate and Spidey comics, then it�s baaaad. We gots to face the World Champ, Joshy, and his buddy who thinks he�s all goofy and immature� but that�s a really really dumb gimmick that only screwballs who should never be wrestling try to pull off. Then as well as those tough dudes, we gots Sharky and some guy I can�t remember the name of. Warning maybes� for the purposes of this cocky promotional rant we�ll call him� uhm� something clever, something witty and original� Doctor Warning. Well Tal has beat Doctor Warning easy-peasy lemon squeazy before� and The Jackrabbit, The Unorthodox One, that�s me!� has beated Sharky before. So these wannabe-Misfits will be a piece of cake� no, icecream. Yes� a piece of ice-cream� mmm� The Jackrabbit likes ice cream almost as much as I likes going to Papa Views, whooping screwballs about abit, doing Odjie and the Breather-Rens proud, and once, twice, and three times for all� getting� The� Last� La-�

CHILD: (interrupting) �Sir, no, shush! I needs your help �cos my mummy has been kidnapped by the Sand Witch�!�

THE JACKRABBIT: �The Sandwich? Ick, don�t like sandwiches��

CHILD: �No! The Sand Witch!

Fade on a dramatic close up of the Jackrabbit�s attempted look of shock and surprise, and if you wanna turn this into a real comic book situation, splatter �To Be Continued�� over the top. Either way; end scene.
