Michael the Mangler is sitting in his locker room now littered with random empty bottles, boxes, and large plastic bags. He is leaning over a small peice of paper mixing something in a small stone bowl.
-
Female Voice: MIKEY!
-
MTM: Wait was that-
-
As Mike turns around he is jumped on by a young woman with medium length brown hair.
-
MTM: Nicole! How have you been?
-
The young woman now known to be Nicole suddenly takes on a more serious tone.
-
Nicole: It's been tough. Mom and Dad still haven't gone back to their old selves yet. Petey's death really hit them hard. I know it's tough on you too but I just can't convince them that it wasn't your fault.
-
MTM: It was.
-
The unexpected response seems to take Nicole off guard as her mouth is now open as if to say something but she is too shocked to speak.
-
MTM: If it wasn't for me Pete would be sitting right over there putting on those ridiculous boots of his and telling me how he's finally gonna make a name for himself.
-
Mike stands and walks to one of the open lockers and hands Nicole an envelope.
-
Nicole: Oh no, you don't need to pay my rent for me anymore. You see I had another reason for coming here.
-
Nicole starts to move around the room and looks into the mirror before speaking.
-
Nicole: I... I met someone. I was out shopping and I ran into a really nice guy. We went out for drinks and well...
-
MTM: OK! Big brother doesn't want to hear the rest of this conversation.
-
Nicole: No I think you will. We... We got married...
-
MTM: YOU DID WHAT?!?!?! You married the guy after one day? I'm gonna kill this lowlife piece of trash!
-
Nicole: But Mikey it's not that bad! We have a lot in common and we really like each other.
-
Mike is no longer listening and has his kendo stick in hand. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out one of the familiar capsules, this one is different from the usual green pills, it is pitch black.
-
Nicole: Oh no. Where did you get that? I thought only Petey knew how to make those. He only made one black one!
-
MTM: I learned from the same person he did. This little baby will blind that bastard forever. He'll never look at my sister with his deceitful eyes again!
-
Mike storms out of the room only to bump into Chris Legend. The second Chris sees Mike he shoves something in his pocket.
-
Chris: Uhhhh. Hey there partner. I was uh... just coming to talk to you about the future.
-
MTM: I'd love to Chris but I got some business to attend to. Some sick punk tricked my sister into marrying him. Can you believe the nerve of this guy?
-
Chris: You uh... You have a sister? W... What's her name?
-
MTM: Nicole. She's the only thing I've got left in the world and I'll be damned if some street rabble is gonna try to take her from me after knowing her for one god damn day.
-
Chris goes pale at the mention of the name and starts to slowly move around Mike. Mike doesn't mind and hurries down the hallway towards the exit.
-
MTM: WAIT A SECOND! I forgot to ask where he lives.
-
Mike hurries back to his locker room to walk in on Chris Legend and Nicole kissing. He clears his throat loudly.
-
MTM: Infedility one day into the marriage? See what I mean Nicole this guy must be no good for you if you're already hooking up with someone else.
-
Nicole and Chris seem almost stunned by how immensely dense Mike is.
-
MTM: Now what you really need is a guy like my buddy Chris here. If you two wanna run away and get married I'd be completely fine with that.
-
The fear seems to slowly dissipate and Chris finally reaches back into his pocket and pulls out a wedding ring identical to Nicole's.
-
Chris: Mike, remember that talk about the future I mentioned? I think we better have it now.
-
Mike finally pieces the puzzle together and facepalms. He looks at Nicole and Chris with a slightly dejected expression.
-
MTM: I have one important question.
-
Chris: Alright that's fair.
-
MTM: WHY THE HELL WAS I NOT THE BEST MAN?
-
Chris Facepalms and sighs before replying.
-
Chris: Because I didn't know she was your sister and I wasn't planning on getting married until I met her.
-
Mike looks between the two and slowly a large smile appears on his face.
-
MTM: I only have one more thing to say to you Chris.
-
Chris braces for this summing up of all the explosive rage the mangler is known for.
-
MTM: Welcome to the family.
-
The three hug and walk out of the locker room speaking quietly.
-
