Subject: The Return Of The Living Dead...

Luke King: "OK Tito, set up the tripod there, just watch out for the tombstone... now, put the audio equipment over by that grave... no! Not on it! Beside it! Jesus Christ..."

**Luke King was nervous, afraid, and pissed off all at the same time. He thought, "What the fuck am I doing in a local graveyard in Death Valley, at this hour, just to interview some new wrestler from the back leagues? Of course they send the new guy to do this job... God it's cold here...". He swiped an extra overcoat he brought in his grey '89 Chrysler Minivan and wrapped it around his shoulders, as his breath rate continued to increase. He hoped the battery wouldn't die from having his headlights on all night, but he'd already decided to leave the car running and get the hell out of here when he was done his job**

King: "OK... OK... just think about the interview... I can do this... Tito! I said not on the grave! Holy shit! He's gonna be here any minute now!"

**Tito just mumbles something in his native tongue as he moves the equipment from the grave**

**A few more minutes pass, but it feels like an eternity to the inexperienced King**

King: "It's 2:04... he's late..."

**Suddenly, a lightning bolt strikes nearly a mile away, as King's heart leaps into his throat and back down into his chest from the surprise**

King: "Holy Sh... c'mon, we gotta check that out! Bring the equipment Tito! Hey Tito... Tito?

**King then hears the squeal of his minivan's tires as Tito is already long gone, leaving the equipment**

King: "YOU PIECE OF SH... I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING!"

**Not having anywhere else to go, King decided rather hesitantly to check out where the lightning bolt hit. As he made his way closer to the site (taking just the camera with him and turning it on), he noticed there were several more graves the closer he got. He also noticed something glowing where the bolt struck, as if something was on fire...**

King: "Shit! That might be some poor bastard's house!"

**King put away his fears for the moment and ran closer to the ember glow, which casted its dim orange light across the whole graveyard. It wasn't long before he realized he was running up a hill of some kind. This hill got steeper the more he progressed, until he was practically climbing up with his hands and knees. It was especially hard because he had a camera in one hand, but luckily King was fairly athletic. Finally, he reached the top...**

King: "Oh my God... Oh my God..."

**King was absolutely stunned at what he saw. A large cross set up at the center of the hill was completely ablaze, and King could make out a human figure on the cross as well. It looked to King like this was some sort of sacrifice...**

**King's eyes diverted from the burning figure on the cross to a man kneeling directly in front of it**

King: "Um... uh... excuse me... sir..."

**The man stood up and turned around, facing King. What King saw was even more sadistic then what was happening on the cross. The man was massive, a solid 7 foot wall of muscle, completely dressed in black except for his face. His twisted facial features bore witness to many of the disturbing things he has witnessed throughout his dark history. His skin was pale white, almost devoid of any life blood. His eyes... had no pupils, they were just white. If any face could give a man a glimpse of hell, this would be the face. He speaks in a low raspy voice...**

???: "Welcome mortal. You have interrupted my ceremony for The Dark One, but do not worry. You will pay with your soul."

King (pointing the camera at the man): "You must be... The Embalmer!"

The Embalmer: "Correct, pitiful creature."

King: "Um... you were recently... uh... accepted into a... ..."

The Embalmer: "TV Title match. I am already aware. I know that I am new in this fed, and since I am new no one will take me seriously. But King, trust me, they will know my name as The Lord Of Darkness. My Creatures Of The Night are numerous, and I will feed off of them to obliterate my opponents and win this pitiful meaningless title. And I will not stop there... I will not stop destroying all those in my path until I am at last the champion of this fed."

King (surprised that this strange man knew his name): "OK... my next question..."

The Embalmer: "No. No more questions, mortal. One is enough.
You will all see what I am cappable of when I win that TV title and ultimately the world title. Now I must leave, for you have desecrated this unholy land."

**The Embalmer turns and walks away into the night, without a sound. King is left standing still, sweating, unaware of what he just witnessed, as he unconsciously still records the burning cross. The shock of this horrible event sends King collapsing to the ground, feinted**

**

**He awakens to the foul stench of tequila on the breath of his camera man, Tito, who's mumbling something. King immediately springs up, looks toward the direction of the cross, and sees... nothing but ash. As the sun rises in the early morning, King realizes he had seen something no normal human should ever see**

King (still in a little shock): "........Let's get out of here."

**King takes the camera, and, with Tito's help, makes his way back down the hill to his waiting Minivan**
