Description Fighting Dreamers #12

"All Falls Down"

INT. A HOSPITAL LOBBY—DAY
NICK is sitting in the lobby reading a tabloid entitled NOSY NINJA. The cover has some blond Marylin Monroe type Starlet who’s pregnant. The cover says “You Won’t Believe Who’s Pregnant!” Nick finishes reading and sets the magazine down on the table. He looks very dumbfounded.

NICK
Wow…They’re right. I don’t believe it…

A young DOCTOR walks into the lobby. She’s dressed as though she’s just been operating on someone (mask and gloves and all) and she’s splattered with blood.

DOCTOR
              (removing her mask)
You’re not gonna believe this. Your friend Gavin…he’s…

NICK
     (Leaping to his feet out of the chair)
Don’t tell me! He’s not…He’s not…PREGNANT is he?!

DOCTOR
Ummm, no. I certainly hope not. I think he’s gonna make it. I know we said his injuries were too severe for him to live when he came in here, but we’ve managed to stabilize him.

NICK
Cool.

INT. GAVIN’S HOSPITAL ROOM—NIGHT
GAVIN is lying in his bed staring at the ceiling. He isn’t looking very good at all, and he’s hooked up to all the machines. Nick walks in carrying a paper bag.

GAVIN
Mission accomplished?

NICK
(taking a bottle of vodka out of the bag and handing it to Gavin)
You’re gonna owe me some serious shit, buddy. Do you have any idea how difficult it was to smuggle this shit in here? Let alone the fucking finagling I had to do with that asshole who runs the convenience store?

GAVIN
             (sitting up in pain)
Heh.

He groans and struggles to bring the bottle to his lips.

GAVIN
You know, I should be able to hook this shit into my IV somehow. That would make this a lot easier.

He drains the entire bottle, tosses it aside and then lays back down in bed.

GAVIN
Damn. That hit the spot.  

NICK
Actually, it probably is a terrible idea to drink like that with your injuries. But whatever. I mean, I think there’s a reason they don’t want me giving it to you.

GAVIN
Meh. It can’t be that bad. I’m fine.

NICK
Well your body’s so used to taking that stuff in that I’m sure it won’t do much harm. But you were lucky, man. You were basically dead when they brought you in here. You’re a fucking medical miracle.

GAVIN
Sweet! You shoulda bought another bottle, Nick. We need to celebrate!

NICK
We need to find Evan is what we NEED to do. Well you need to recuperate, but then we’ve gotta find him Gavin. I dunno what got into that boy, but his strength was like it’s never been before.

GAVIN
It’s always business with you, huh? Well Yeah. Judging from the number he did on me he’s definitely beefed up. It’s kinda strange. He hurt you pretty good too, didn’t he? How are you doing?

NICK
I’ll live. They bandaged me up and gave me pills. The usual treatment.

GAVIN
But you wanna go after him again? I mean, you wanna risk getting fucked up again if we fight him?

NICK
We kinda have no choice. The Molloch cult obviously has its hands in this. I just hope that by the time we find him Nicholas will have gotten the message back to HQ and we’ll have back-up to take him on.

GAVIN
Yeah. Cuz in our state we certainly wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

FENRIS EVAN appears standing over Gavin.

FENRIS
You certainly wouldn’t.

NICK
Oh hello.

Fenris grabs Gavin’s face and squeezes, crushing his skull. The little heart meter Gavin’s hooked up to indicates that he’s dead with the all-to-familiar beeeeeeppp.

FENRIS
Heh. How unsatisfactory.

NICK
Oh shit! Way to rain on Gavin’s parade, Evan! The Cracker was just getting done patting himself on the back about how he was a medical miracle! Did you really have to go and kill him like that?!

FENRIS
No. But I had orders, Mr. Nick. And please, call me Fenris.

NICK
Fenris? You decided to change your name? Turning over a new leaf, are we?

FENRIS
Oh hell yes. Heh. New name, new look. The works. You like it?  

NICK
(Opening the byakugan)
Can’t say I do.

Nick draws a kunai and charges at Fenris.

FENRIS
Please. You said yourself you don’t have the strength to fight me!

Fenris teleports behind Nick.

Nick draws a kunai and charges at Fenris.

FENRIS
Oh, like that’s really gonna do shit to me.

Fenris ducks under Nick’s slash and UPPERCUTS him in the stomach. Nick COUGHS UP a splurt of blood and falls to his knees.

NICK
Everyone’s super strong these days. God, couldn’t you fucking think outside the box? Point for—

FENRIS
Brutality?

He stomps on Nick and starts kicking him on the ground.

FENRIS
Yee-haw!

Nick does a fancy little BEAKDANCE SPIN thing to get up into monkey and then he KICKS Fenris in the stomach from the ground. The kick just thuds against Fenris’ body and doesn’t do shit.

FENRIS
Wow. That blew. If this body wasn’t enhanced with a demon spirit that attack would’ve had the same effect. But that’s all you can muster right now, isn’t it?

NICK
Yeah. It’s sad but it’s true.

FENRIS
Die.

He GRABS A HOLD OF of Nick’s leg which is still outstretched from the kick and SWINGS Nick around the room like a ragdoll. He tosses him across the room and Nick BUSTS through the window. We hear Nick’s screams as he falls.

FENRIS
Music to my ears. You’ve got ten stories to go, monkeyboy. Bon Voyage.

EXT. OUTSIDE A HUGE PYRAMID IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT—NIGHT

VADRAN stands outside the temple holding a torch in one hand and his other hand tightly holding his cloak around him. He’s gazing off into the distance. Another CLOAKED MAN riding a camel comes rushing up to Vadran out of the desert night. He brings his camel to a stop and dismounts. Vadran walks up to him. The man’s hood is up and he’s wearing a bandana that covers his face except for his eyes.

MAN
Some weather we’re having tonight. I always thought the desert was supposed to be WARM. But it’s gotta be below zero out here.

VADRAN
The desert is warm. In the day. When the sun goes down all bets are off. You’re late. Let’s go inside.

was a god worshipped by many but because she required children to be sacrificed the governments of our world wanted her religion dead. So they sought to discr

They walk into the Pyramid.

INT. THE HALLS OF THE PYRAMID--NIGHT
The Man is being led by Vadran down dungeony halls complete with cobwebs and torches lighting their way. They pass all kinds of strange statues and cave paintings. The Man takes his hood down and unwraps his face. He is revealed to be ELLIS.

MAN
I stopped and got a pizza. Not very classy, I know. But hey, when you ask someone their favorite food who doesn’t say “pizza”, huh? This IS a fucking potluck, right?

VADRAN
Yes. Ellis-San, Where is Farouk?

ELLIS
Fa who? Oh. That demon you summoned to guide me here?

VADRAN
Yes.

ELLIS
I killed him.

VADRAN
What? You killed my demon guide? Why?

ELLIS
He was gonna steal my new shoes. Do you see these motherfuckers?

CLOSE UP:
Ellis’ shoes. They’re bright pink converse high tops.

VADRAN
Yes I see them.

ELLIS
Yeah. I just picked these kicks up at the Footlocker, man. And you’re idiot Fabook.

VADRAN
Farouk.

ELLIS
Yeah whatever. Fanouk sees them and he’s all like “I think those are women’s shoes, sir.” And I took that as him calling me a fag, you know? I killed his ass. No offense to you or anything. I know you summoned him, and he’s probably a good guy, but he really rubbed me the wrong way, you know?

VADRAN
Sure. Well we’re here.

They stop in front of a big vault-style door.

ELLIS
Did you guys start already cuz I’m late?

VADRAN
No, Ellis-san. You are the honored guest here so we’ve been awaiting you. The meeting hasn’t started yet. They may have started eating I don’t know.

ELLIS
Oh fuck! They better not have! I will be SO pissed if there are no crab cakes left! Someone did bring crab cakes, right?


INT. THE MEETING ROOM—NIGHT
A large group is sitting around a big table with a pentacle drawn in the middle. This group is made up of: ELLIS, LILITH, DARNELL, FENRIS(in Evan’s body), PHANTOM, DOLE-SENSEI, and a few other KAGES and three other people who’s names we don’t know. These people are MYLA: a woman dressed as a cowgirl with bright red skin and little horns and a barbed tail, DRATCH: a dude dressed like Napoleon wearing a gas mask, and SRANI: an emaciated creature that’s naked except for a loin cloth and has spiky, Super Saiya-jinn kinda hair (we can’t tell this thing’s gender. It probably doesn’t have one.) Vadran is standing at the head of the table making a speech.

VADRAN
I’d like to begin by saying that we very much appreciate Ellis-San joining our “family”, especially the new members he has convinced to join us.

Close up on Dole-Sensei and the kages.

VADRAN (con’t)
Great Molloch is also very pleased to have you all on board as well. I’m glad you all have heeded Ellis’ words and joined our family. Moloch is pleased because originally she was betrayed by the governents of the world. Back when she was alive they called her a false god. She had hundreds and hundreds of worshippers and just because the governments didn’t like the fact that she required the occasional child sacrifice they hired that scum who goes by the name of Grandpa now to eliminate her. ‘Tis a shame that we are her only worshippers now. But she IS NOT a false god and she is pleased that the governements (or at least a good part of them) recognizes her for her true power. She will return. She will return very soon and that will bring about a change in this world! All the unbelievers will fall and that will show them all that she’s no “false god!”  

ELLIS
                  (standing up)
But of course, Vadran. But I kinda already told them all that. That’s why they decided to join. I mean, we all realize that you guys are way too strong for us to take you down and that by working with you at least we won’t die in fire and brimstone. Or whatever.

VADRAN
You’re right, Ellis-San. I knew you had already told them her tale. Sorry, I just get carried away telling it.

ELLIS
No problem.

VADRAN
Ellis, have you told them of our plan for these meddling three-man-teams yet?

DOLE
Plan for the three-man teams?

VADRAN
I see you haven’t. Well, Dole-san, you surely know that those teams of jounin White-Sensei sent out to stop us are becoming quite the nuisance.

LILITH
You’re damn right they are! I lost my fucking arms because of them! Good thing Molloch was able to bless me with new ones…Not to mention the fact that they killed my boyfriend!

PHANTOM
Thanatos too. They killed him.

DARNELL
And I’m guessing cuz that bird guy isn’t here he got killed.

VADRAN
Firadar, yes. He too was slain, Darnell. These jounin, these fighting dreamers, are really causing trouble.

DOLE
Ellis, I have a question: why did you allow the formation of the fighting dreamers in the first place if you’ve been working with Molloch all along?

ELLIS
Honestly, it was to keep y’all in the dark. I approved that team just so it wouldn’ look suspicious which it certainly would if I took no action. So I gave the power to form a task force to White knowing that he would get together a bunch of losers. Which he did.

DOLE
Oh right. The original fighting dreamers.

DARNELL
Morgan, Nick, Craig, Evan and Luke…Those guys aren’t losers! I’m gonna say right here and now that fighting alongside those five guys was—

ELLIS
Darnell, they’re idiots. So are you. In fact, they’re a lot like you. Ridiculously strong idiots.

DARNELL
(standing up with anger in his eyes)
How fucking dare you insult those guys? I mean, calling me a big idiot is one thing. But if you think I am gonna sit in that chair. Which, by the fucking way is made of stone and is freezing on my ass! Ever hear of padding, motherfuckers?! Well I’m not gonna stand for your cold as ice chairs and the fact that you’re insulting my homies. I am gonna bust your hater skull open, Ellis! Put up your fucking dukes cuz it’s on, nigga!

ELLIS
Darnell, I am not gonna fight you right now. We shouldn’t be fighting. We need to work together to help out mother molloch.

DARNELL
Fuck you, bitch! You’re not gonna fight me? Well I’m gonna—

ELLIS
Silence! Ok, just shut the fuck up. Do you forget, Darnell, that Vadran and his boys have your damn DAUGHTER? Vadran here can make her die with like a little wiggle of his finger or some shit. You know it. You want her to live, right?

DARNELL
(sitting back down)
Bastards…

ELLIS
Now that’s a good burly black man. I would’ve kicked your ass anyway.

DARNELL
I hate y’all. I really do.

VADRAN
(thinking)
Heh. Humans are such interesting creatures. So weak. All of them have ONE weakness or another. Ellis and his compatriots are all weak because they fear death. That’s the real reason they’re working with us. Fear. Darnell though, he doesn’t fear death. He fears his daughter’s death. The other major human weakness I suppose. Attachment. Good thing I left those human traits behind long ago…

ELLIS
What was I saying? Oh. How the original fighting dreamers were losers. Well not only that, but they actually were doing more damage than they were helping. That’s why I liked that whole operation. I mean, they were actually aiding Vadran’s crew because every city they wound up in they destroyed worse than Vadran’s guys were even planning to fuck it up.

FREITAS
This is true. Look at what they did to sand village.

ELLIS
But then when White realized this and got them organized into those bloody three-man teams, when they brought other jounins in who weren’t dumbasses, that’s when they started fucking up Vadran’s crew.

VADRAN
Yes, if the three-man teams hadn’t been started I believe Firadar and Karetsumi and Thanatos would still be with us. I fear these three-man cells will do even more damage to our operation if they are not stopped.

DOLE
Stopped? You mean?

ELLIS
Yup. We’re gonna kill the fighting dreamers.

DOLE
But we taught those kids when they were, well, kids. We can’t just KILL THEM, How could you live with yourselves?

ELLIS
I never really liked them. And I’m gonna live with myself fine. In fact, that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. LIVE with myself. Because if we don’t kill them, we’re just gonna go down in the apocalypse when Molloch returns. You wanna survive, don’t you, Dole?

DOLE
I…

Vadran smiles.

VADRAN
You won’t actually be doing the killings, my dear. If that makes it any easier. My Generals will.

FREITAS
Generals?

ELLIS
Oh. That’s another thing I neglected to tell you about. Vadran’s Generals.

VADRAN
I can explain this, Ellis. You see, this “apocalypse” that Molloch will bring upon the world will be in the form of an immense demon army which she will give birth to out of her womb.

DOLE
That’s kinda gross.

VADRAN
It’s beautiful, Dole. The miracle of life. Birth that will end the lives of the unbelievers. Anyway, the senior members of our family I have designated as generals to lead battalions of this demon army. One General to lead a group against each major country of our world. Fenris for hidden sound, Lilith for hidden Mountain, Phantom for hidden sand, Myla for hidden mist, Dratch for hidden stone, Srani for hidden cloud, and last but certainly not least, our good man Darnell for hidden leaf. The generals will also be responsible for killing off the members of these three-man teams.

ELLIS
Yes, you see I’ve arranged it so each team is split up and they are all having leisure time awaiting the returns of their respective contacts who are reporting to me. I am going to meet with all the contacts and take care of all of them in one fell swoop…

INT. A LARGE AUDITORIUM—DAY
Nicholas, Jenna, Jesse and Miranda, all the contacts for our three-man teams are standing around in the room.

JENNA
I wonder why we have to meet with Ellis and not White? Isn’t White-Sensei the one in charge of all of us.

JESSE
Oh who knows. This buracracy thing is crazy and Ellis is so power-hungry that I’m sure he’d take any chance he could get to be in charge.

ELLIS appears in the room.

ELLIS
Hi, sportsfans.

NICHOLAS
Hi.

ELLIS
So, before you make your little reports to me, I have some news for you for a change. How’s that sound?

MIRANDA
Sounds right and dandy to me!

ELLIS
Oh I’m so glad to hear that. Well it comes in good AND bad news. Which first?

JESSE
Bad. Always the bad first.

ELLIS
You got it. The bad news is: You’re all dead. Ninja Power: Skullbuster Technique.

He snaps his fingers.

The Heads of all the contacts explode in showers of gore.

ELLIS
Oh darn. I should’ve killed you all with something that would’ve left your ears intact so you could’ve HEARD the good news. Damnit. Silly me. Oh right, you’re dead too. Even if you had ears you couldn’t hear me when you’re dead. I really am a silly goose. Well I’ll say the good news anyway because this whole scene is really bringing me down and saying that might pick me up a bit. Here’s the good news: In killing all of you I get to survive when all hell breaks loose!

He does the nice guy pose.

INT. THE MEETING ROOM INSIDE THE PYRAMID—NIGHT

ELLIS
So yeah, that will take care of that.

VADRAN
And then it’s a matter of slaying the members of the actual teams.

ELLIS
Right. And the way it works out right now is that the three-man teams are actually split up in their “leisure time”. I mean each member is doing his or her own thing right now. Which will make it a lot easier for your generals, Vadran because they won’t have to contend with an entire team.

VADRAN
True. And they won’t have to waste their energy killing the worthless ones.

DOLE
Worthless ones?

ELLIS
Yeah. Those original fighting dreamers. They’re really not a threat, and because we don’t HAVE to kill them with everyone spread out this way I’m assuming that Vadran doesn’t want the Generals taking them out.

VADRAN
No. They can fall in the apocalypse with all the other unbelievers. They will cause us no harm before then. In fact, I’d like to keep them alive just in case they end up destroying things instead of saving them again. That would be amusing…

ELLIS
Oh, it certainly would, man.

VADRAN
So, Generals, I will inform you as to your targets. Lilith will take care of Kati.

INT. A DARK ROOM—NIGHT
KATI is sitting at a desk drawing her typical pictures. Suddenly the picture she’s drawing turns into a picture of Lilith.

KATI
What the fuck?

Lilith leaps out of the page and slices off Kati’s head with her blood sword.

INT. THE PYRAMID MEETING ROOM—NIGHT

VADRAN
Srani, you’ll kill Foster, the other member of that team we’re targeting.

EXT. A FOREST—DAY

FOSTER is leading a Young Child, LITTLE JAMPSON who looks kinda like him but younger through the woods.

FOSTER
Ok, I have a little question for you. There’s something up in these woods.Now, can you tell me what is wrong in this forest, Lil’ Jampson? It has to do with the trees.

JAMPSON
Ummm…

FOSTER
Well I’ll give you this one. Do you notice how there are only very young trees and very old trees?

JAMPSON
Yup.

FOSTER
Good. So what we’ve got here is an age disconti—

SRANI (OS)
Teee heee. Learnin’. I loves the learnin…Foster be teachin’ little kiddie some learin’…

FOSTER
Eh?

SRANI leaps down from a tree and lands in front of Foster sitting cross-legged on the ground.

FOSTER
The fuck are you? How do you know my name, man?

SRANI
Foster is your name. Yes it is your name.

FOSTER
Uh, duh. I think we’ve established that. Why don’t you go away and leave us the hell alone you Gollum wannabe.

SRANI
I know you be named Foster cuz I have to kill you.

FOSTER
Yeah. Good for you.

SRANI
Yupyup. Good for me. Bad for you. Heee heee.

In one insanely quick movement he digs his claws into Foster and RIPS HIM IN TWO. Then he gets up calmly and starts to walk away.

LIL’ JAMPSON
Pleased to meet ya. I’m Jampson.

Jampson and Srani shake hands.
INT. PYRAMID MEETING ROOM

VADRAN
That will take care of that team. Their third member is Craig, and we’re not concerned with him. The next team that we will eliminate is the team made up of Caitlin, Colleen and Luke. Of course, Luke isn’t on the hit list. But I want Myla dealing with Caitlin and Phantom handling Colleen.

EXT. A HOTSPRINGS ON TOP OF A SNOWY MOUNTAIN—NIGHT

COLLEEN and CAITLIN are sitting in a hot springs sipping on gin and juice. Or HOT CHOCOLATE if this is Funimation (Go, go magic censorship!)

COLLEEN
Oh man, it is so nice to be away from Luke.

CAITLIN
I know. Good thing he had to go into the men’s hotspring. He’s been singing that Micheal Jackson song ever since we left Neverland Ranch. How’s that go?

COLLEEN
“If you wanna be startin’ somethin’”…Something like that. How can you blame him for singing it though? It’s probably stuck in his damn head. It’s stuck in mine.

Suddenly Phantom comes out of the water behind COLLEEN and stabs her in the back of the head with a kunai. Blood leaks out her eyes and nose and she sinks down into the water, turning it red.

PHANTOM
And now you’ve got something else stuck in your head, deary.  

CAITLIN
Oh my god!

Myla pops out of the water behind Caitlin and grabs her hair, ripping off her scalp with a nasty pull. Caitlin sinks down,  scalpless brains exposed, into the water like Colleen did.

PHANTOM
Nice pull. No pun intended.
MYLA
God, you’re on fire today, Phantom…

INT. PYRAMID MEETING CHAMBER

VADRAN
And actually there is only one more of the jounin that needs to die. That would be Gavin. Fenris, why don’t you finish the job with him, eh?

FENRIS
Aww. Everyone else gets to have all the fun. I get to kill a fucking incapacitated guy.

DOLE
But isn’t there one more team of three?

DARNELL
Yeah. What about the cap’n’s team? What about Ali and Amanda and Morgan?

VADRAN
Well, Seeing as Thanatos killed Amanda and she was our only other target from that team, we don’t need to worry about them. Darnell and Dratch, I guess you two get this mission off.

FENRIS
Well I guess you guys are having even LESS fun than I am with this. Heh. Sucks to be you.

DARNELL
Oh yeah. Sucks BIG TIME. I don’t get to kill off people who I care about? That’s horrible!

ELLIS
Ah, sarcasim. All the weak Darnell has as a weapon against us. It’s a pretty impotent one I must say.

DARNELL
Nice vocabulary, cracker.

VADRAN
Now, boys, no fighting here. I think this meeting has gone on long enough. Everyone is clear on everything? And Generals, if you happen to cross paths with the original fighting dreamers, even though I know I said to ignore them, feel free to kill them as well. It isn’t taboo. Don’t go out of your way to kill them, don’t go out of your way to avoid killing them. They’re not the main targets here. And with that I think this meeting is adjourned.

ELLIS
Alright! Let’s fucking eat! I’ve got a fever, and the only thing that can cure that fever is crabcakes!

DARNELL
I ate all the crabcakes.

ELLIS
Oh no you didn’t! I hate you even more now…

INT. GAVIN’S HOSPITAL ROOM—NIGHT
Fenris is standing in there, Gavin’s blood all over his claws. KYUBI trots into the room.

FENRIS
Oh hey there. You missed it.

KYUBI
Arf!

FENRIS
Well Nick dying, dude. I threw him out the window.

KYUBI
Arf!

FENRIS
Yeah. He just stopped screaming right before you came in.

KYUBI
Arfity arf arf arf!

FENRIS
Bigger fish to fry? What do you mean?

KYUBI
Arrrrf!

FENRIS
Oh. So Molloch woke up, huh. I guess it’s time for you and me to lead us a demon army. Good thing you can transform into full-on demon fox mode now, huh. You’ll make a sweet ass battle mount.

Kyubi hops onto his shoulder and they start to walk off

KYUBI
Arf.

FENRIS
What? You don’t like being called mount? The hell should I call you?

They walk out the door.

FENRIS (OS)
No way, I AM NOT calling you that.

EXT. OUTSIDE THE WINDOW OF THE ROOM—NIGHT
A chain of monkeys are hanging out the window, and Nick is hanging on for dear life at the bottom.

FENRIS (OS)
No fucking way am I calling you that, Kyubi! No WAY IN hell!

NICK
Jesus, those two sure are a pair. Even with demons possessing their souls…Well thanks, guys. You really saved my ass.

THE MONKEY NICK’S HANGING OFF AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CHAIN
Oooo oooooo aaa aaa.

NICK
Heh. Yeah we certainly got them. The old “I’m screaming my head off so you think I’m falling to my death when I’m actually haning onto a chain o’ monkeys?” It’s a good trick, no?

ANOTHER MONKEY
Ooo ooo.

NICK
Oh yeah. I think he did say that Molloch woke up. That’s no good, dudes. I guess we’re gonna have our work cut out for us…

Well, that was kinda sad. I mean, couldn't anyone have had any more INTERESTING deaths? I mean, suuuuure exploding heads are nice. But they're also kinda boring. And why wasn't I killed? Am I just not cool enough to be even mutilated? If so, that would be sad. And what about Aubs? I figured that she of all people would at least be MENTIONED. huff huff huff. Well, that's all.

I was actually going to use you in my next chapter of Fighting Dreamers so it all works out, and knowing that Aubs is alive too means I can use her. So basicallyl thanks for the update.

And I'm planning on some ideas that may not redeem the quick deaths that many did not like, but at the least might redeem the Fighting Dreamers story as a whole everyone who's upset. But if I don't do that right then perhaps we are all doomed.

Sometime when you're online we should discuss what all of the boys and I thought would be a good way to do in some of the chapters (we kind of planned out all the plots for like 3 chapters or so).

I'm not sure when we'll ever find the time to do so, but I'm sure eventually we'll be able to get to it.

This is definitly the burliest Fighting Dreamers chapter that I have read in a while. It actually gives me a lot of ideas for mine, so I think I'll start writing that now even though Craig is technically next (but who really knows how the order will turn out in the end).

Anyway I'm favoriting this mofo.
