SKYSCRAPER MELANCHOLY
A few months after the horrifying 'Gruesome Fighting Championship', Sumisu and Under entered the national circuit.
Their ultimate destination was New York City.
What could the Statue of Liberty tell them? The symbol of freedom and success glowed with an eerie light, unchanging, unmoving, everlasting....
Dynamic Kid was supposed to be enjoying his retirement in London, but he met up with Sumisu in New York City, as an active wrestler and WWC Tag Team Champion.
KID: "Sorry I called you here, Sumisu. I don't know how I even found the guts to see you, but..."
SUMISU: "What are you talking about? You're a superstar! You've got fans all over the world. I hope you never stop fighting."
KID: "'The End of Dynamic Kid'... I can't even sleep at night knowing that my retirement ceremony was a farce. I've betrayed my fans..."
SUMISU: "Pull yourself together, Kid! You're a champion, hell, you're the Tag Team champion of America!"
SUMISU: "'A champion must be a champion at all times.' Those are your words."
KID: "... You're right. A lot of fans were happy to see me come back from retirement."
KID: "I suppose I'm blessed. As a wrestler..... I've still got something to fight for."
SUMISU: "That's right, Kid.... Someday, you'll have to face me. I'm not really interested in the Tag Team Championship."
SUMISU: "But I will enter, and I will win! It's the least I can do for those who supported me so far.."
KID: "You're going to become a fantastic wrestler. I look forward to seeing it happen. I'll take your challenge head on, I won't run away."
SUMISU: "Kid.... Please, come have a drink with me tonight. Just the two of us, don't tell your partner."
KID: "Sumisu, you know that alcohol's..."
SUMISU: "We can make an exception for tonight. Alcohol's like medicine if you only drink once in a while."
SMALL: "We Steiner brothers are the strongest Tag Team in the world! The bond between us is just too deep!"
SMALL: "One mind, one body! Unbreakable team work! Let's go, bro!"
BIG: "Hahahahahahahaha! That's right. Who's this Sumisu? I've never even heard of him. Underground! ... You're making friends with Japs now?"
BIG: "Hahahahahahahaha... We'll grind you to dust! Tell 'em, Small!"
SMALL: "We'll split your heads open with our suplexes! You'll never get on the ring again! Never again!"
BIG: "That's right. I can already see it in my mind... My bro skewering you onto the ring with his Frankensteiner."
BIG: "Maybe you should call the hospital, 'cause you look butt hurt! Hehehehe!"
SMALL: "Bro, they look scared! Maybe you should just go home if you don't wanna get hurt."
BIG: "Come on, Small, don't bully them! You know we stand for love and peace! Hahahaha!"
SMALL: "OK bro, let's work up some sweat! This is better than the sauna!"
BIG: "Hahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
UNDERGROUND: "Sumisu... We'll win! We're not going to lose... We won't!"
SUMISU: "Of course! I'm not going down until I grab that belt!"
UNDERGROUND: "Me either... not until I'm a Champ! Let's go, Sumisu!"
KNIGHT: "Rhaaaaaaaaaargh! What are these kids doing here!? This isn't kindergarteeeen!!"
KNIGHT: "If you don't run away, you're gonna get huuuuuuurt!! Rhaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! Tell 'em brother!"
IRON: "Anyone who gets in the way of the Urban Blasters is gonna get torn to pieces! No mercy!"
IRON: "You're not backing down, huh? Good, we're gonna make you bleed!"
KNIGHT: "You F-O-O-L-S! Rhaaaaaaaaaargh! I'm gonna teach you a lesson!"
IRON: "Brace yourselves!"
UNDERGROUND: "Knight... Iron... They're strong. But we'll win.. Sumisu."
SUMISU: "Yeah, they look tough."
UNDERGROUND: "Power... I sense a surge of power. Let's forge a new era, Sumisu."
SUMISU: "A new era....? You're right. This is our time. We're gonna surpass all the fossils from the previous age! Let's go, Under!"
KID: "Sumisu.... You've made it. Thanks for showing me some killer fights. I haven't been this excited in a long time."
KID: "It's been years... You've really got my blood pumping."
SMITH: "Kid, your razor-sharp aura is finally back. That's the 'Dynamic Kid' I used to know."
KID: "Smith...... Thank you. ... Underground, Sumisu, you're about to witness the power of the Brilliant Bulls."
KID: "New York's smiling at us. ... I can see the Goddess' smile, I can hear the Goddess' whisper...."
UNDERGROUND: "Can you do it, Sumisu? Fate sure is cruel..."
SUMISU: "Don't worry about me, Under. I'm a pro wrestler."
UNDERGROUND: "You've grown strong, Sumisu."
SUMISU: "Under.... What is pro wrestling?"
UNDERGROUND:"..... Mirrors .............. Ashes ............... Urns? I don't know."
SUMISU: "Forget it, don't worry about it. .... I don't know why, but the ring feels bigger than usual."
UNDERGROUND: "Sumisu........"
SUMISU: "Come on, Under! Let's do this!"
KID: "Congratulations.... and thank you. I'm glad I got to face a fighter as pure as you."
KID: "Mr. Wakamoto would be proud of you."
SUMISU: "I never wanted to beat you, Kid. I just thought that by fighting you, I might find the answer, but..."
KID: "You didn't find anything, did you? Of course, I'm a man of the past. The Goddess abandoned me a long time ago."
KID: "But you've got your whole life ahead of you. You'll have plenty of time to think about it. The World Championship's coming up soon. Keep you eye on the prize."
KID: "The Tag Team champions are taking a break. ........... But it was nice to dream, for a while."
KID: "Perhaps the Goddess took pity on me, 'A poor man on the verge of death' in the end...
KID: "This time it's gonna stick. It's 'THE END of Dynamic Kid!'...."
SUMISU: "................ Kid! ................ Kid! ................ Kid!"
SUMISU: "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
ITTETSU: "Trust your partner! Teamwork is essential in a Tag Team!"
