"Ladies and Gentleman....Johnny BLAZE!"

The crowd riots in their seats, barely contained. They only know that a life hangs in the balance. A man is about to charge through a herd of stampeding cattle. Bulls! Angry Bulls! Bulls charged up with Testosterone!

Billy Fredmont is thrilled. Johnny Blaze is just That fucking cool.

He and Jimmy Kowalski have seats up in the nosebleeds, but they can still see it. The Arena's not that big.

-----

At the edge of the world an old man leans on his cane and growls to himself. Johnny's purpose was painfully obvious.

Poor bastard. Suicides ended up in the place Johnny was going anyway.

Why hurry the trip?

"Ladies and Gentlemen! Blaze is down! Blaze is down! Get the cows off the floor! Jesus Fucking Christ!"

Billy and Jimmy are up off their feet. Jimmy's grinning stupidly, "See any blooooood?"

Billy says nothing. He only whimpers. He's never seen anybody die before. It's weird. He's got Johnny's games. All his posters. He's a Hero in the truest sense of the word. He's fearless. Chris Slanton beats him up, but Billy takes it because you can't live in fear.

You can't live in fear.

"Where the hell're you goin Billy? Billy? Billleeeee-"

Jimmy whimpered and cursed his friend, falling back into his seat and grabbing his Nachos.

Jumbo Style.

It's not going to be that easy Johnny.

The Devil smiled. You poor sad fool

Billy nearly knocked into the stranger standing at the enterance to the lower levels. He tripped, his foot catching on a long white cane. Almost like he tripped me..

Nice old guy like that? Never.
