**Tokyo, Japan**
**Fujita Health University Hospital**
The sterile environment of Fujita Health University Hospital contrasts sharply with the chaos and brutality of the wrestling world. LuLu Biggs lies in a medical bed, his right arm in a sling after undergoing surgery to remove the bullets lodged in his massive arm. His face, marked with the stitches from his recent match with the now-deceased Jeremiah Vastrix, shows a mixture of pain and anger.
Surrounding him are Sun Hao, Zhou Kai, and Risako Tomozuna, all wearing N95 masks due to the hospital's strict guidelines to prevent the spread of Blovid-13. The room is filled with a tense atmosphere, heightened by the presence of Devin Zeagal, Vice President of Ultimate Wrestling Operations, and the ever-imposing figure of Rupert Mudcock. Mudcock sits on a shiny red mobility scooter, his personal viral protection suit giving him a bubble-like appearance, with a clear helmet encapsulating his head.
LuLu's eyes narrow as he sees the group gather around him, his frustration palpable. The antiseptic scent of the hospital mingles with the residual pain and anger simmering beneath the surface. He shifts uncomfortably, wincing as he adjusts his position.
**Rupert Mudcock:** (in a muffled voice through the helmet) LuLu, it's unfortunate what happened to you. We're here to support you in any way we can.
**LuLu Biggs:** Bitch please? Support? Where was this support when I needed it? You should have warned us about the Yakuza and All Asia Pro Wrestling being threatened by Ultimate Wrestling's presence in Japan! I would have been better prepared for their attack if I knew!
Mudcock's eyes widen in feigned surprise, and he exchanges a quick glance with Zeagal before responding.
**Rupert Mudcock:** I assure you, LuLu, we had no idea they would resort to such violent measures. We will get revenge on Haruki Tanaka and the Yakuza for attacking multiple members of our roster. You're not the only one affected—Thanh Son Tran is in a coma, and Duyen Mai Luu has multiple injuries. Neither of them is in any shape to wrestle going forward.
Zeagal steps forward, trying to calm the situation.
**Devin Zeagal:** LuLu, I understand you're angry. We all are. But we need to handle this the right way. You should file a police report using the security footage from your office cameras. It's the only way to ensure justice is served.
LuLu's face hardens with defiance as he glares at Zeagal.
**LuLu Biggs:** I'm not looking to end up dead, Zeagal. I ain't no snitch. I live by a code, and going to the police ain't part of it. I'll handle my business myself.
Zeagal sighs, frustration evident in his voice.
**Devin Zeagal:** You may live by a code, but you won't live long by it. This is serious, LuLu. The Yakuza won't stop until they get what they want.
The room falls silent, the tension thick as everyone absorbs the gravity of the situation. It's clear that LuLu and his allies want Mudcock and Zeagal to leave, the unspoken dismissal hanging in the air.
**Rupert Mudcock:** (leaning forward on his scooter) We will get our revenge, and the best revenge is putting them out of business. I'll make sure of it, but remember LuLu; you have the full backing of Ultimate Wrestling behind you. Don't hesitate to use it.
LuLu's eyes flicker with a mix of resolve and fury as he locks eyes with Mudcock.
**LuLu Biggs:** Keep this in mind, Rupert, you might be able to put All Asia Pro Wrestling out of business, but there is no putting the Yakuza out of business. Now, I need you and Zeagal to your ass's up out of my room. I need to discuss things with my crew.
Mudcock and Zeagal exchange a glance before nodding reluctantly. They know pushing further won't help the situation.
**Devin Zeagal:** Fine. We'll give you some space, but remember, we're here if you need us.
As they exit the room, the atmosphere shifts. The focus returns to LuLu and his allies, the path forward uncertain but their determination unwavering. The tension that had gripped the room began to dissipate as the door closed behind Mudcock and Zeagal. LuLu's allies move closer to his bedside, their expressions a mix of concern and determination. Risako Tomozuna, the elder statesman and mentor, places a reassuring hand on LuLu's shoulder.
**Risako Tomozuna:** LuLu, I know you're in pain, but we need to focus. This attack by the Yakuza is serious. We can't let them think they can intimidate us.
**LuLu Biggs:** (gritting his teeth) I know, Risako. I don't plan on terminating my contract with Ultimate Wrestling and I can't just sit here and wait for them to come after us again. We need a plan because before long, they'll be coming after Zhou and Sun.
**Sun Hao:** We will stand by you, LuLu. The Yakuza have overstepped, and we cannot let this go unanswered.
**Zhou Kai:** Together, we are strong. They won't know what hit them.
LuLu nods, feeling a renewed sense of resolve from his allies' unwavering support.
**LuLu Biggs:** We need to be smart about this. I won't go to the police, but we can use our connections to gather information. Find out where Haruki and Yamamoto spend most of their time. Also Nakamura and Takahashi need to be taught a lesson in respect. Once I get my hands around the scrawny little necks, I'm going to pop their skulls like fucking balloons.
Risako Tomozuna: We'll use our network to track them all down one by one. We'll make sure they understand that attacking one of us is an attack on all of us.
LuLu's anger begins to transform into a steely determination. The pain in his arm is a constant reminder of the violence he endured, but it also fuels his resolve.
**LuLu Biggs:** They wanted a war, and now they got one. We'll show them that the Terracotta Titans and LuLu Biggs aren't to be messed with.
The group huddles closer, their faces set with grim determination. The path ahead is fraught with danger, but together, they are ready to face whatever comes their way. The Terracotta Titans and LuLu Biggs will not be intimidated, and they will stop at nothing to protect their own and reclaim their honor.
As the room settles into a tense silence, the flickering hospital lights cast long shadows on the walls, a stark reminder of the battle that lies ahead. The Terracotta Titans, united by their bond and driven by their unyielding resolve, prepare to strike back against the forces that seek to tear them apart.
**Outside the Hospital Room**
Mudcock and Zeagal stand in the hallway, their expressions a mix of frustration and determination. They know the situation is dire, but they also understand the importance of standing by their roster.
**Rupert Mudcock:** (voice low) We need to get to the bottom of this, Zeagal. We can't let the Yakuza think they can push us around. I know you warned me about Tanaka, but maybe there is a way to reason with him. Perhaps his brother could arrange a meeting for us?
**Devin Zeagal:** (nodding) Agreed, I'll see what I can do, but we'll start by increasing security for our roster and gathering as much information as we can. We need to show them that we're not backing down from the fight.
Mudcock's eyes narrow as he considers the implications of the attack. The Yakuza have made a powerful enemy, and he intends to make them pay.
**Rupert Mudcock:** We'll make sure they understand the consequences of their actions. Ultimate Wrestling will not be intimidated, and we will protect our own.
With a final nod, Mudcock and Zeagal turn and walk down the hallway, their minds already racing with plans to counter the Yakuza's threat. The battle is far from over, but they are ready to face whatever comes next.
**The Bigg House - Later That Evening**
The Bigg House, usually alive with music and laughter, now sits in an eerie silence, its grandeur muted by the absence of patrons. The dim lighting casts long, flickering shadows over the rich, dark wood and plush furnishings. LuLu Biggs sits in a plush leather chair, his massive frame filling it completely. His right arm is strapped in a sling, a constant reminder of the attack that nearly cost him everything. A half-empty bottle of whiskey and a glass sit on the table beside him, untouched. The air is thick with the scent of aged liquor and the faint remnants of cigar smoke.
Surrounding LuLu are his allies, the Terracotta Titans—Sun Hao and Zhou Kai—and their wise manager, Risako Tomozuna. The atmosphere is tense, a mix of anticipation and steely determination.
**LuLu Biggs:** Tomorrow, y'all gonna step in the ring with them Siberian Spirits. Viktor Zlovred and Snezhnaya Barsa might look tough, but we know how to break 'em. We know their weaknesses, and you two are gonna exploit every single one of 'em.
**Sun Hao:** (leaning forward, eyes fierce) Viktor’s already on the edge, LuLu. We push him a little more, he’s gonna snap. His hallucinations and nightmares are our weapon.
**Zhou Kai:** (nodding, muscles tense) And Barsa, he’s fast, but the pressure on him is heavy to perform from the Russian government. We get in his head, make him doubt himself, and he’s done. He just came off a win, but that fear of losing again, it’s gonna eat at him.
**Risako Tomozuna:** (nodding wisely) Remember, this isn’t just about winning a match. This is about sending a message. We’re not just wrestlers; we’re warriors. We fight for our honor, for our friends, for everything we stand for.
LuLu leans back, a grim smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. Despite the pain, there’s a fire in his eyes, a fierce determination that burns brightly.
**LuLu Biggs:** We gonna break those two Russian prick's spirits. Make 'em doubt themselves. Show 'em that the Terracotta Titans ain’t to be messed with. This is your chance to move out of the first round of the tournament and get one step closer to Ultimate Wrestling Gold. You've both got to seize the moment.
Sun Hao and Zhou Kai share a determined look, their fists clenching with resolve.
**Sun Hao:** It's a great opportunity LuLu, one that's not lost on us.
**Zhou Kai:** (grinning fiercely) They won’t know what hit 'em. We’re gonna dominate, make sure they remember our names.
**Risako Tomozuna:** We’ll strategize and train harder than ever. This is our chance to make a statement to the rest of the Ultimate Wrestling tag team division.
The intensity in the room is palpable, each member of the team ready to give everything they’ve got. The road ahead is fraught with danger, but together, they are a force to be reckoned with.
**LuLu Biggs:** Once we've handled our business in the ring, we will turn our focus to the Yakuza.
The intensity in the room is palpable, each member of the team ready to give everything they’ve got. The road ahead is fraught with danger, but together, they are a force to be reckoned with.
**Risako Tomozuna:** (firmly) Exactly. This match is just the beginning. We show everyone what the Terracotta Titans are capable of, and after that, we handle the Yakuza. No more surprises, no more attacks. We take control of our destiny.
**Sun Hao:** (clenching his fists) We’re ready, LuLu. We’ll bring everything we have. Those Russians won’t know what hit them.
**Zhou Kai:** (with a fierce grin) We’ll dominate the ring and make sure they regret ever stepping in with us. This is our time to shine.
LuLu leans back, a proud smile on his face despite the pain. His voice carries the weight of a leader confident in his team.
**LuLu Biggs:** That’s what I like to hear. You two are the best damn tag team in Ultimate Wrestling. Go out there and prove it.
**Risako Tomozuna:** (nodding) Stay focused, stay strong, and fight with everything you have. We are warriors, and we will not be defeated.
As the conversation winds down, the determination in the room is almost tangible. Each member of the team knows their role, their purpose, and the stakes. The Terracotta Titans are ready to face the Siberian Spirits, and they are ready to send a message to anyone who dares to challenge them.
**LuLu Biggs:** (with finality) Alright, let’s get some rest. Tomorrow, we show the world what the Terracotta Titans and LuLu Biggs are made of. Let’s do this.
The team disperses, each member carrying the weight of their mission with them. The Bigg House, usually filled with noise and activity, is now a quiet sanctuary for warriors preparing for battle. The flickering lights cast long shadows, but they only serve to highlight the unbreakable resolve of the team.
As they prepare for the challenges ahead, one thing is clear: the Terracotta Titans and LuLu Biggs are a force to be reckoned with, and they will not back down from any fight. Their unity, strength, and determination will carry them through whatever comes their way.
