[Truth is walking backstage searching for something]
R-Truth (to himself): âAlright, Truth⌠You smelled popcorn five minutes ago. That means catering close.â
[He opens a heavy, ominous-looking door engraved with ancient runes.]
Excalibur (on commentary): âWait a minute!â
Taz: âThatâs not catering. Thatâs⌠thatâs Mil Muertesâ temple, Excalibur!â
[Inside: flickering candles, bone-decorated walls, and an altar at the center with a large, ominous stoneâ Milâs sacred relic.]
R-Truth: âDang yâall went all out for the VIP catering!â
[He wanders past the altar. While turning to look behind a pillar, his elbow bumps the stone..]
[It lands on the ground with a cracking noise. A slight invisible crack on the center of it.]
Truth (frozen): ââŚThat was like that when I got here.â
[The flames of the candles flicker violently.]
Taz: âOhhhh no. He touched The Stone. HE TOUCHED THE STONE!â
[SUDDENLY THE DOORS BURST OPEN. MIL MUERTES storms in, eyes full of rage.]
R-Truth: âKANE?! AGAIN?!? BRO WHY YOU EVERYWHERE LATELY?!â
[Mil lets out a roar of pure hatred, Truth screams and bolts out of the room. Mil follows him destroying everything in his path.]
Taz: âHeâs gonna kill him!â
[Catrina stands in the silence, her eyes wide as she stares at the cracked relic on the floor.]
[She slowly kneels and picks it up. Her hands tremble.]
Catrina (softly, to herself): ââŚNo...â
Tony: âShe looks⌠actually afraid.â
Excalibur: âShe should be! That stone anchors Mil Muertes to this world. If it shattersâŚâ
Taz: âSay goodbye to the man of a thousand deaths.â
[Catrina clutches the relic to her chest, staring toward the path Mil just tore through.]
[Mil storms down a corridor, TRASHING everything in sight. Security wonât even approach him.]
R-Truthâs voice echoes from somewhere unseen: âSTOP FOLLOWINâ ME! I DIDNâT EVEN GET A PLATE!â
[Mil howls, tipping over tables and as crew members flee.]
Excalibur: âThis is out of control!â
Taz: âAnd Truthâs hiding somewhere in this arena like a terrified raccoon!â
[Mil pacing through the shadows, breathing heavy, fists clenched, searching for Truth â whoâs nowhere to be seen.]
[Backstage, Catrina sits in the ruin of the stone room, clutching the cracked relic]
