Back at the MCC for Team Atari, 2600 and 7800 along with Flashback 2 are oh so happy! There is so much joy, celebration in the air. For once in a long time, this group of freedom fighters feel like they have accomplished something here tonight in New York City at Madison Square Garden. To Team ATARI, this is huge achievement, one that has been long overdue and felt like would never happen ever since the death of 5200.
2600: “7800!!!! You were awesome out there on that battle field! They way you stood up to each and every single Yamauchi tonight! I am…..I am just so very proud of you!”
2600 looks like he is about to cry, tears of joy. 7800 hugs 2600. Flashback 2 is so happy, sporting a huge smile, she joins in on the hug creating one big group hug.
7800: “Dilly dilly dilly, Dilly!”
2600: “Yes, by all means. 7800, Flashback 2, this is huge deal. By all means, you are correct.”
Flashback 2, up on hearing what 7800 suggested, looks at 2600 like a kid who is about to get rewarded like never before. She has her hand on his shoulder, she can’t help herself, she can’t not touch him right now.
2600 reaches in his wrestling attire pocket and pulls out a key. He turns and inserts the key into the underneath compartment to the MCC, turns the key and it uplocks. He then pulls this little drawer out, this safety deposit looking drawer. With the same key he unlocks the cover to the drawer and once that is done, he places the key back in his pocket.
2600: “7800. Flashback 2.”
2600 looks at both of them.
2600: “We earned this!”
2600 reaches in the drawer and pulls out 3 silver wrapped Hershey Kisses. One for each of them. If there was ever a time for Flashback 2 to be ready to create another human being, right this second, she would be so fertile.
Flashback 2, 7800, they each carefully select a Hershey Kiss from the palm of 2600. They each look at one another, smirk and quickly unwrap and pop the chocolate goodness in their mouths and embrace, and savor the melting awesomeness in their mouths.
Nolan, the crotchy SOB that he is walks into the war room where Jack and Ted are already seated. They look, relieved and disappointed at the same time.
“Gentlemen.” Nolan says as he takes his seat at the head of the wing table.
“Where the fuck is the pencil neck geek?” Jack barks and points at the chair where JT normally sits.
“Called to [censored] with a meeting with Dabney…” Nolan begins saying before Ted throws in his two cents.
“God damn Dabney.”
Nolan glares at Ted. “And Bushnell.”
Both Ted and Jack take this as bad, the sky is crumbling news.
“We’re moving to phase two gentlemen.” Nolan calmly tells them.
Jack begins to tap his fingers on the table, a nervous twitch he has had forever. Ted wants to pull his hair out, stressed to the max. Finally he can’t keep it bottled in no more.
“Nolan! For fuck sakes man!”
“LANGUAGE!”
“PULL THEM OUT! They got lucky!” Ted pleads with Nolan.
Jack pipes up. “So lucky Nolan, Dabney has to know this! At the battle of the Garden, They were so close to losing. It’s a miracle.”
“A Easter day miracle!” says Ted.
“That they won! I swear to god, the holy spirit himself Nolan, I have 12 more ulcers watching that Battle of Garden unfold. 2600, 7800, they aren’t ready!”
Nolan leans back in his high back leather chair.
“Ready or not gentlemen. Team ATARI is going to Vegas, the sight of the next battle. Our enemies, their enemies will not stop until Team ATARI has been eradicated from the face of the earth. I don’t have to tell you what happens after that. You two are very well aware if Team ATARI fails. We will lose the most precious thing to each and every person in this world, in this universe.” Nolan stands up. “In Vegas, at the Battle of the MGM, Pong 2 will go into action. Freedom, gentlemen. Freedom is on the line. The war for the Energon Devise rages on and Team ATARI, nor I will stop until we have it under our control. Now...”
Nolan reaches in his pocket of his suit jacket and pulls out a handful of gold foil Hershey Kisses. He tosses them on table.
“Enjoy your MSH07c gentleman. You have earned them.”
Jack and Ted look at the Kisses on the table and sigh. Nolan leaves the room and as Jack unwraps his MSH07c, Ted looks at him.
“Betcha fucking Dabney got the platinum ones.”
Battle of MGM
Puroresu
The IMB1403 comes to life as the green bar is slowly pushed through and the next order for Team ATARI is present to them. 2600 waits with bated breath as the IMB1403 finishes up with his job. ONce completed, 2600 advances the paper to the next perforated line and tears off their mission. 2600 reads it. He then folds the green bar in half and inserts it into the Fellowes PS-79CI and shreds the document.
2600 then exits the MCC.
Outside in what appears to be a RV park somewhere in the US, where there is warmer weather. 7800 and Flashback 2 are standing around a small campfire in the evening. FB2 is making smores.
“7800. We have our orders. The mission is a go.”
7800 nods at 2600.
“Phase two for our mission to secure the Energon Devise, stop the Yamauchi’s dead in their tracks will comes at the Battle of the MGM.”
“Dilly Dilly”
“The P.T.B.s have informed me that the GWD have dispatched 3 of their toughest, brightest, sneakiest, and deadlists Yamauchis. We will be tested like we haven’t been tested before. So much so.”
2600 looks at Flashback 2, who is trying to keep her feelings in check.
“I must inform you Flashback 2, that if we even end up like 5200.”
Flashback 2 is fighting back the tears. She ends up burning her marshmallow.
“You know what must be done. Make sure everything we have built, everything we have done, the information doesn’t fall in the hands of the Yamauchi’s. At any cost Flashback 2, this mission can’t fall to our enemies.”
Flashback 2 nods. She can’t speak right now.
“7800. Everything we have, every little trick we have up our sleeves, now is the time to play them.”
“Dilly Dilly.”
“I knew I could trust you 7800.”
2600 turns towards the camera.
“Yamauchi. I know what you are planning. I can see clear as day. Like a solar panel farm on a hill of rotting trash, I see what you have done here. You clearly lost at the Battle of the Garden. You were under matched, out powered and caught completely off guard. You willingly retreated that night. You let us have that victory in order to spare you the war. You were hoping that it would lull us into a false sense of security.”
“Well the joke is on you Yamauchi! We take security very serious! When it comes to national security and the war over the Energon Devise, we don’t joke around.”
“Dilly Dilly”
“Correct 7800. We have drawn back your veil of deception. We will look you in the eye, stand nose to nose against you, trade fist for fist, kick for kick, and we will battle you back to the stone ages! We have only but one objective in this war. Secure the Energon Devise at any cost and that includes death!”
Flashback 2 drops her stick with her charred marshmallow on it and runs back to the MCC.
“Dilly Dilly!”
“7800! I couldn’t have said it any better my friend. We will not bed death come April 13th at the battle of the MGM! We will be victorious at PURORESU!”
“Dilly Dilly!”
“Yamauchi, we not walk, we shall run right, right into you and you will learn, when it comes to capturing the Energon Devise. There is nothing you can do to stop us! NOTHING!”
“Dilly Dilly!”
2600 places his hands on his hips, puffs out his chest. 7800 steps next to 2600 and strikes the same pose.
“For 5200.”
“Dilly Dilly.”
Fade out.
