Charon, Ferryman of the Dead: You have found me out. *cries from empty eye sockets*

 

Naked: AGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! A TALKING SKELETON!

 

The three girls run away too, hiding from the undead skeleton man.

 

Naked: MAN! That is messed up. That is seriously a thousand times more scary than the sheet! Why didn’t you just creep me out like that?!

 

Charon: I do not see why you are so scared. We have met before. Do you not remember?

 

Naked: Uh… I think I’d remember a talking, walking skeleton.

 

Charon: It was at the stable wars 4-man event. With the paintball. And the miniature golf. I’m the guy who whacked people unconscious with my paddle and then I opened their mouth to see if they had any coins under their tongues. You know, because that’s what I do. That and haunt things.

 

Naked: Dude, there were like 500 posts in that thing. How could I remember? Plus Homeless J and Gentleman had me baked the whole time.

 

Charon: Why… you ask? Why did I do this?

 

Naked: Actually, no. I don’t really car-

 

Charon: -I’ll tell you why! You only gave me three months. Then I was abandoned. Didn’t I deserve more than 3 months? Come on. I’m very cool. Check out this paddle I have. I use it to row my boat across the River Acheron.

 

He pulls the paddle out of the sheet.

 

Naked: I only gave you three months? What are you talking about?

 

Charon: And you never gave me extreme membership. Was I not worth it? Damn you Nakedman, damn you to Hades! Which is where I am from, by the way.

 

*WHACK*

 

Naked: OW! You just hit me with that paddle!!! Why you little… hrmm… no wait. Now I’m starting to remember you.

 

Charon: Yes!

 

Charon grabs the bottle of water that Neo used to wake up Nakedman with earlier. He has a drink to clear his non-existent throat. It falls right through his ribs and soils the ground at his feet. 

 

Naked: You were outside of the “Escape the Castle” match, trying to get in. Right?

 

Charon: NO! THAT WAS SKELETOR!

 

Naked: Pfft. Skeletor? That’s insane. He’s just a cartoon villain. No one would be stupid enough believe in or fear cartoon villains. Or watch teaser videos for the Evil Empire set up over the course of a month.

 

Charon: Silence, or you will be whacked.

 

Naked: So wait. When I stabbed you in the castle, how did you bleed? I mean… since you’re a skeleton.

 

Charon: Instead of answering that question, I will dodge and ignore it completely.

 

Naked: And to think. All of this just to get at me. It doesn’t make any sense. 

 

Charon: Okay… Nakedman. I didn’t REALLY do it to get to you. It was all a huge publicity stunt. You see, I figured the Bar Room would have a big audience. So I just wanted to use this as a forum to debut my boy band’s hit new single, “We’re Better Than You.” Come here, guys.

 

And from behind an armor store walk out three more skeletons. One is Bones Jackson, Mutant League Football Superstar. The next is Tzontemoc, a skeletal god of the Aztecs. The last skeleton is the Grim Reaper. Not to be confused with Grimm. What reason would that fatty Grimm have to be in the Bar Room Brawl?

 

Charon: Ladies and Gentlemen… we are: N’GRAVE!

 

The four start doing coordinated dance numbers as music plays out of nowhere.

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

 

Baby, we’re skeletons…

Oh baby, yeah, we’re the ones

The ones who got the ribs hanging out their chest

The ones who get the ladies cuz we’re the best

I’ve got bone to pick with your puny flesh

While you will rot our calcium always stays fresh

But we love the way your ladies talk to us with their tones

Mmm, yeah

We know all they want to do is get right to our bones!

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re friggin see-through!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

Your ladies we screw!

 

Bones Jackson, Mutant League hero and running back, steps up for a verse of his own… solo. The “Oooos” in the background, however, are added to by the rest of the band.

 

Baby you know that I’m Decayed,

Oooooo…

Baby you know that I’m Deceased,

Oooooo…

But baby, baby, baby

Doncha know I’m an undead scoring Beast?

 

When I roll these bones they always come up six…

Touchdown with the ladies, then conversion, no never kicks…

If they didn’t rot long ago I’d show you my balls…

Baby then I know you’d always return my calls… CUZZZ…

 

(everyone)

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re friggin see-through!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re the undead crew!

 

Charon steps forward to begin his verse.

 

I’m the ferryman of the dead

On the Acheron

I would make you give me head

If my crotch weren’t gone

I’m the bony kind of guy that you’d like to straddle

You can grab up on my bones, just don’t touch the paddle

Uh huh!

 

I will whack you on the skull, yeah, there is no doubt

You best take the paddle beatin’ and please don’t pout

Don’t confuse my river and say I cross the Styx

Or I’ll turn you out and make you my mythological tricks

And Don’t laugh at the fact I ain’t got no groin,

It won’t be so funny when you ain’t got my coin… BECAUSE…

 

(everyone)

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

Food Falls right through!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

No respiratory System, so we can’t catch the flu!

 

Death, aka… The Grim Reaper steps up. He’s the outcast badboy in the group.

 

I’ll make you scream my name in your final breath,

Baby you know the last thing you’ll do is call for “Death.”

When it’s your time to go, it’s my time to come

So open up your mouth baby… say yum!

 

My touch will send you cold and to the grave

Baby you think you’re free, but your soul’s my slave

Don’t think the Reaper boy is just a joke,

We’ll go one on one, I’ll take off the cloak… like Neo… CUZZZ…

 

(everyone)

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

The bones stay together with glue!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re the underworld coup!

 

Finally Tzontemoc, from old Mexico, brings out his Latin flavor!

 

Baby baby baby, look up and check,

Here’s a kiss blown to you from the skull Aztec

Look inside me baby, see my guts are in dearth

But I’m the sweetest skull boy on the planet earth

 

I came from the heavens and from Tenochtitlan

Though I ain’t got no heart I can be your man

 

Speaking of hearts, my people cut them outta virgins

Baby give your heart to me, I’ll be your love surgeon

Come on up to me and hold my skeletal frame

My lovin puts all the other undead boys down in shame … Because…

 

(everyone)

 

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better that you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re friggin see-through!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

You gotta know its true!

Ooo Ooo Ooo…

We’re better than you!

 

The music ends and they hold their positions, with arms extending. They await applause.

 

Charon: What? Come on man. GIVE IT UP! That was awesome!

 

Naked: You’ve got to be kidding me.

 

Charon: Yeah. You’re right. I really did to it all because I hate you, Nakedman. I was going to destroy you. And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for you meddlesome kids and that dog!

 

Naked: What dog?

 

Charon: That’s not important. What is important is that I whack you with this paddle. Consummately.

 

*WHACK*

 

Naked: AGH!

 

*WHACK*

 

Naked: OW!

 

*WHACK*

 

And Charon chases Nakedman off into the sunset. His sisters just stand there laughing. Neoprene is still unconscious. The Gothic Warriors are sleeping and Davros is, well, unimpressed.

 

Davros: WHAT?! WHAT?! CHARON?! WHO THE HELL IS CHARON?!

 

Comic Book Store Guy: Worst… revelation… ever.

 

Davros: That was quite possibly the most unimpressive “surprise” I have ever seen! I can’t believe I had to sit through 3 rounds of this crap for that!  All those guys kept emailing me: “Hey Davros… who’s the Ghost Guy?” … “Do you know who the Spooky Ghost is?” ARGH! That sucked!

 

Charon runs up.

 

Charon: Damn you Davros! I rule! I was in a national! I swear Head hired me in the UCE! I am a somebody! *WHACK*

 

He takes out Davros with the paddle and now the entire commentator crew is in la-la land.

 

Charon: Hey! What are you doing? Are you fading out on me? Don’t fade out on me!!! STOP Fading! HEY! Hey SONY RECORDS… CALL ME! No… come back. Where are you going? Don’t cut off the feed!

 

*fuzz*

The End.
