"...and there's a $19,000 bonus for every game I hit 2 dingers!" Khalid Harding was talking to his cousin, Axis, on the phone.
Axis didn't flinch. "Interesting. I get paid $200,000 every time I'm in a match, and another $50,000 for every win."
"Ooh." Not even Khalid could argue with $250k for winning a wrestling match. Then again, he wasn't used to wrestling. Baseball was his life. "Did you get the bonus for Fatal? I was at a party while it was going down."
"Ross Hanson outran me for the win. I beat the hell out of Quinn, though!"
They laughed, because they knew it was true. Axis was determined to make Quinn Castillo pay for costing him a shot at the Moonstone the first time they met. In the end, though, neither had enough gas to win the Moonstone.
"Listen, man, I gotta go. I've got practice in the morning."
"Yeah, same. We're heading down to Key West tomorrow, and I have to finish packing. Have a great night, Khalid."
Meanwhile, elsewhere on the property, Axis's daughter Lexi was sitting in the stall with her pony, Leo. Lexi was still a bit upset over the passing of Bucky, despite it being a few months ago. Leo was trying his best to cheer up Lexi, cuddling his face into her chest.
Suddenly, Lexi got a text. She pulled her phone out to read it. It was from her former classmate, Carson Welsh. The text read:
"call me when u have time"
Lexi, deciding now was as good a time as any to call her friend, dialed Carson's number.
He picked up right away. "Hey, Lex!"
Carson was not greeted by Lexi, however, but instead Leo. He had taken a sudden interest to the magical device while Lexi was drinking her water.
Carson laughed. "Hey, buddy! Can I talk to Lexi?"
Lexi picked up the phone a second later. "Hey, Carson."
"Hey there. You alright?"
Lexi was visually dull, but she managed to respond anyway. "Yeah. Just missing Bucky a little extra today."
"Should I call you back later?"
"No, go ahead. I don't want to keep you waiting."
Carson immediately launched into his pitch. "You know how you wanted to start an online mystery club? Well, I think I found our first case."
"Alright, I'm listening..."

Last week, the world got a taste of what is to come. When the bell rang, it was clear that I was coming away with the win. One kick and it was lights out for Zeus.
The countdown to my inevitable takeover has begun. Let it be known that I will be participating in the Rumble in the Bronx.
But before we get too far down the rabbit hole... let me address my upcoming match. I won't lie, this Moonlight Rose girl has talent. She's strong, and also hot.
But I prefer beating up hot women that aren't my wife. It will make their scars burn. So enjoy your weekend, Rose... it's going to be a very long night this Monday.
