Ooookaaaay.

Although I have NO idea when this idea for a new FFML address came 
from, I can play along, so here we go again.

				ANIMANIA:
			    OPENING CEREMONY

	As the people in Madison Square Garden awaited the event to begin, 
the people at home, watching on Pay Per View, were treated to a 
special opening.

	It started with a black screen and a voice saying, "The FFML Royal 
Rumble."

	The picture changed to one of the packed to the rafters Nassau 
Collosium.  The voice continued as it said, "Three solid hours of 
action showed us many things."

	The image changed again to highlights from the Dan/Sakura/Undertaker 
VS Raditz/Zeiram/Kodachi match.  "We saw Animates collide with 
members of the highly respected MVFC."

	Next came highlights of the all out brawl between the Killer 
Intincters and the Eternal Champions.

	"We saw an incredible collision between rival fighters who hated 
each others guts."

	The scene cut to Pantyhose Tarous eliminations of Sailor Mars, NG 
Knight, Yamcha and Jotarou Joestar as the voice continued, "In the 
Rumble itself, we saw one mans dominance of the early minutes."

	The scene changed to a montage of Vegitas actions during the Rumble, 
with one notable image being when Vegita pulled himself to his feet 
after being slashed on the back by Magic Knight Fuu.  The look on his 
face describing the agony he was feeling far better then words could 
ever say and yet, he still threw himself back into the fight as the 
voice droned on, "We saw one mans pure grit and determination to 
prove his well earned title of 'The toughest b*****d alive.'"

	The screen changed to when Akuma entered when Magic Knight Hikaru 
was originally supposed to and the voice said, "We were startled by 
the actions of a 'Demon' from the bowls of Hell itself."

	Then the image became one of the final energy war between Serenity 
and Goku and the tremendous explosion that had been the result.  Then 
changed to where Sailor Moons arm was raised in victory.  The voice 
concluded, "And we saw that perhaps God DOES play dice, as Sailor 
Moon was crowned the first FFML Royal Rumble Champion."

	The screen became black once more.

	"But from the Rumble arose several rivalries.  Rivalries which shall 
come to a head tonight....

	"At Animania."

	Inside MSG, fireworks exploded above the ring and the people cheered 
loudly.  Many people who were present had been there for the FFML 
Royal Rumble and knew that this would be a grand time.  Those who had 
not been there for the Rumble were just as excited, they were finally 
going to see their favorite Animates duke it out in person.

	Down below, on their raised platform, White Wolf and Tybalt began 
their opening speeches for the PPV audience.  "Welcome everyone," 
White Wolf exclaimed, "to Madison Square Garden!  Welcome... to 
Animania!  I'm White Wolf, founder of the FFML and by my side, ready 
to give his expert commentary, is the moderator of this grand, world 
wide organization, Tybalt!"

	"Thanks Wolf," Tybalt said as he took over, "Well, to be honest, I 
never thought we'd be here doing this again.  However, the tempers 
and bad feelings that resulted from the Rumble, as well as the fans, 
demanded that we do something like this again."

	"And speaking of those rivalries," White Wolf said as he jumped in, 
"We're going to see Armor King and TJ Combo, two fighters who have 
hated each other because of what happened in the Fatality Match at 
the Rumble, collide here tonight."

	Tybalt continued, "We're also going to see another feud come to a 
head, as Magic Knight Hikaru, with the Eternal Lost Lurker in her 
corner, tries to get even with the man who denied her the opportunity 
to compete in the Royal Rumble, the 'Demon' of Street Fighter, Akuma.
"

	White Wolf and Tybalt alternated the matches.

	"Vegita and his son Trunks battle Pantyhose Tarou and his partner, 
from the MVFC and Marvel Super Heros VS Street Fighter, The Hulk."

	"A special Survivor Series match with the Inner Four of the fanfic 
TRIO taking on four specialy picked warriors from some of our other 
authors realities.  Namely, the team of Crimson, Kouchi Yamazaki, 
Totengeist and The Eternal Lost Lurker."

	"Armor will fly as Tekknoman takes on Guyver 1."

	"Magic Knights Fuu and Umi wage war against Sailor Senshi Jupiter 
and Mercury."

	"The former MVFC champion Dan Hibiki battles Ranma Saotome."

	"Then comes the match Flashman is dreading.  The Rumble Champion 
Sailor Moon against the Shakotan School Girl, Sakura."

	"Everyones favorite okinomiyaki chef, Ukyo takes on the 'legendary' 
samurai, Haohmaru."

	"A special attraction comes next, as Kasumi tries to bring a smile 
out of Kamui in an Emotions Match."

	"Then we close the whole thing off with a Grand Finale, where all 
the winners of the previous matches will be brought back and randomly 
divided into two teams for a final Survivor Series war!"

	The two commentators panted for several seconds as they tried to 
catch their breaths and over the speakers came a female croon of, "OH 
FLASH!  YOU ARE SOOOOOOOO... FUNKY!"

	"Can't Get Enough" played as Flashman appeared from the back and 
made his way to the ring.  While he was doing so, Chris Angel, God Of 
The Moment, and his sisters, Urd, Skuld and Beldandy, finally found 
their seats and sat.  Leafing through the program guide, Chris said, 
"At least we haven't missed TOO much.  You just HAD to go and try to 
find Akuma, didn't you?" Chris finished his remark with a glare to 
the Goddess of Love.

	"I couldn't help myself," Urd defended, "He's so CUTE."

	"Can't you find ANYBODY who doesn't trigger EVERY Must Kill instinct 
in my body?"

	Beldandy silenced them both as she said, "Please be quite.  Flashman 
is about to begin."

	Flashman entered the ring and waved to the crowd and spoke into the 
microphone that was lowered to him.  "Hey everybody," he started, 
"For those of you who were here for the FFML Royal Rumble, welcome 
back.  And for those of you who're here for the first time, strap 
yourselves in and prepare for the time of your lives."

	His theme music fading, Flashman continued to address the people.  
"I want you to know that we're going to do our best to bring you the 
greatest action we can bring you and to reach that point, I want you 
to know that I've brought together the best team of reporters, 
announcers and refs I could get.

	"First, lets say our hellos to our Pay Per View announcers, White 
Wolf and Tybalt!"

	The crowd cheered as the two moderators stood and waved politely.

	"Next, I want you to know that Zen's still going to be covering the 
action in the back, but he's not alone anymore, as he's joined by 
your friend and mine, Ranchan!"

	The video wall near the entry ramp snapped to life and showed a 
double shot of both interviewers as they waved to the crowd as well.

	"And, of course, our ref for this evening, TEKKA KNIGHT 
WARHAMMER!!!"

     As soon as Flashman had finished his introduction, "Diesel 
Blues" started to play and the TekkaKnight, with an open mike in his 
hand, walked down the aisle.  Not surprisingly, considering what he 
had done recently in his fanfic "For the Love of Ragnorak", the 
Sailor Moon fans booed him loudly while those that hated the Senshi 
gave him a standing ovation.

     Speaking into the mike, Warhammer turned to the Sailor Moon fans 
as he entered the ring and said, "Oh come on.  You people can do 
better then THAT.  I ruined your heros lives and enjoyed every second 
of it."

     The Sailor Moon fans booed louder while the SM haters got louder.
  Warhammer turned to the ones cheering him and said, "Man.  You 
people are sick," he smiled, "Almost as sick as me.  
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

    Someone in the stands threw their soda at him while someone else 
threw their bag of popcorn at him.  Both objects bounced off the 
Tekka Knights armor.  "Now," Warhammer teased, "that's better."

     There was a loud matalic screech and then someones chair came 
hurtling at Warhammer.  Warhammer ducked the chair and complained as 
his free hand rested on his hip, "Now that's a bit much!  I DID heal 
them in the end, didn't I?"

	The ones who were mad at him, grumbled and sat down as the anti-SM 
contingent started booing him.  "Yeesh," Warhammer muttered to 
himself, "Tough crowd."

	Flashman jumped back into the spotlight, before anything else could 
happen and he said, "Okay ladies and gentlemen, we're just about 
ready to get underway.  Are you ready for our opening match?"

	The crowd roared in excitement and Flashman took a deep breath as he 
prepared to introduce the first fight.
