[MARQUEE]Harrison BFF Tour Stop 1!: Home Depot, New Roc[/MARQUEE]
The scene opens with a Black Camaro with red pinstripes along the sides driving up to the front of a Home Depot. Raven gets out of one side, the wind blowing into his face as he looks off into the distance with a lost expression in his face. He fixes his expression with a cynical smile as he walks over to the passenger side of the car and opens the door, pulling Carl Long out with him. Carl looks frightened, as IWF cameraman come out of the backseat. He fixes his blazer and looks to the camera before beginning to speak.
Long:::Well, here we are with Jay Raven outside of a Home Depot in...New Rochelle, New York. I was brought here against m-
Raven shoots Long an intimidating stare, as Long corrects himself by clearing his throat, fearful of what Raven might do if he finishes that statement.
Long:::That is to say...I-I was brought here against my worse judgment, which would have been to stay and conduct an interview with Ryan Harrison...
Raven snatches the microphone away from Long.
Raven:::What's that supposed to mean huh? Your not implying that I forced you to be here...and that you'd rather be interviewing my best friend...I hope that's not what you mean. A man could do a lot to a guy in a hardware store that sells hammers, plywood, and vats of Sulfuric Acid. Nothing like a good ol' barrel of H2SO4 to get back at somebody who wants to leave you for your best friend huh Longy?
Long takes a deep long gulp and starts shaking in position. Seeing this fear, Raven laughs.
Raven:::Calm down Longy, I wouldn't do anything to you in Home Depot. Too many witnesses. Besides, you know why we are really here...don't you?
Long shakes his head no.
Raven:::Well, besides the fact that we are meeting up with two acquaintances of mine, this is stop 1 of 3 on the Ryan Harrison BFF Tour of New York! What does that mean persay? Well here in my home state of New York, I thought it be a better time than ever to show Ryan Harrison, just how much he means to me. I mean this might be the most special thing I have ever done for a best friend in my life. This is gonna be HUGE. There will be people, fire, possibly some involvement from the authorities, but trust me, my message will be delivered, loud and clear. My message that as my best friend, Ryan is...explosive...in my life. Now let's enter this place shall we?
Raven enters the Home Depot, with Long and the cameraman entering behind him. He takes in a deep breath and exhales as the heat from above braces him after walking in from the cold January air. Long walks in and looks around Jay Raven's side to see the store bustling with activity.
Raven:::So on words to the wood section right?
Long:::I-I thought you -weren't- going to hit me with the plywood!
Raven:::Calm down, it's all in plan for this evenings celebration. We need lots of wood if we are gonna have the campfire stay up. Can't spark a blaze without lumber can ya?
Long:::I guess not.
Raven:::Well then walk with me, talk with me.
Raven walks with his hands folded behind his head, as Long follows closely behind cowering, and looking left and right as if for a means of escape. The two reach the wood section, and Raven spins looking at all the massive logs on the shelves.
Raven:::So much wood! I bet Harrison would love it here. Well...maybe not cause I'm sure Harrison hears wood...a different meaning comes to mind...Now, which type should we pick? Maple, Oak, Cherry, Pine, Cedar, Palm.
Raven just continues scanning with a inquisitive look on his face. He sighs in dissappointment.
Raven:::Just like Harrison. These pieces of wood are just like Harrison! All of them look the exact fucking same to me. What exactly does that mean you may ask? Well, at first glance all these slices of lumber look the same right? Well, on the interior, all of them yearn to be recognized for what truly makes them different from the rest. They want people to recognize them for their perplexing natures and corresponding abilities, when the sad part is that these natures and abilities are nothing more than duplicates of everyone else. And so, each and every tree is doomed to a life of normality and any complexity of understanding vanishes because it's easy to describe something that appears in front of you a hundred times, now isn't it?
Ryan suffers from this. He comes in with a new gimmick, thinking "Hey maybe people will think I'm different this time" When all he does is fall victim to an even more stereotypical portrayal of his person. He tried the "cocky asshole" routine, and look where that got him? He ended up just like all the other cocky assholes, hidden behind Montana and Charlie Titan because they were the top assholes in this business. Then he comes back as the whole "I am a good guy! Here to spread my power ranger pixie dust over the IWE!" And now look? He is constantly overlooked because there is only room for about 50 good guys who want to change the IWE, and unluckily for him, he came in at number 51. Adam Freeman, James Kash, BPB, they are all sucking up the limelight as the good guys, and Harrison is just behind them, trying to catch any gleam of light that just happens to escape the sight of those 5 men. Sadly, none gets through and he is just sitting there as bland as everybody else, trying to find someone to place the blame on for his unsuccessful career so far.
...and that's where I come in eh? Ever since he came back, Harrison has been blaming me for all his constant failures and plans never coming to fruition. Not a very good Best Friend is he? I mean placing the blame on little ol' me? If Harrison was as good as he preached half the time, he could go places without using me as a patsy. IF he was so damn good, he could just break free of the grasps that I apparently have on him. Tell me Harrison when I wasn't around physically and mentally for a couple of weeks, what was stopping you then? What stopped you from showing the world, that you truely were and originally inspired person? WHAT STOPPED YOU FROM STANDING OUT? It wasn't me Harrison. It was you. People see past the fakeness of your good boy attitude, and they find it...uninteresting. Want to know why everyone hates me? Because I'm atleast -fun- to hate. I have depth Harrison. Don't make any mistake about it. I have depth. Which is why it's so easy for you to place the blame on me. You figure that people will buy it as some cheap attempt to make it seem like you have some depth too. How's that been working out for ya huh? It's too bad it won't work, because unlike you, changing your motives every day to try and look appealing, this isn't a gimmick Harrison. This cynicism, it's real. Damn real. I'll show you just -how- real, come Inception.
Out of nowhere, a hand slaps on Raven's shoulders. He doesn't turn around, he just smirks, crossing his arms and tapping his foot.
Long:::Raven, you have visitors...
Raven:::Sparrow....Honey...What took ya so long huh?
Voice 1:::Well, I wouldn't want to come on time, when my most favorite brother always shows up thirty minutes late right?
Voice 2:::I tried to tell him we should hurry, but you men are just soo hellbent on vendettas...
Raven turns around as does the camera, to see Josh Sparrow and Roxxi Crow...now Roxxi Raven...standing there. Roxxi is in her usual purple skirt, black leg warmers and purple and black slanted striped sweater, as she runs and jumps into Raven's arms. They exchange a quick kiss, before Josh jumps onto Raven's back. And, jokingly, kisses him on the cheek. Raven lets down Roxxi and snapmares Josh, who lands on his feet. Raven is rubbing off his cheek as he greets his bro with a handshake.
Josh Sparrow:::So you called us here to help you...do what exactly?
Raven:::Remember that plan I had for us? The special plan?
Roxxi:::Oh! You mean *muffled noises*
Sparrow quickly covers Roxxi's mouth, before she blurted out the plan.
Raven:::Shhh. Don't want the surprise getting out before it happens right? Besides, I've left enough hints for now. Besides, by time Ryan or anyone sees this, they would have watched it on the news. Now...onto wood selection. I guess I'll go with Oak. One of the most common types of wood, for my common best friend.
The scene fades to black with Raven and co. standing as a store attendant named Bryan Garrison.

[MARQUEE]Harrison BFF Tour Stop 2!: Madison Square Garden, NYC[/MARQUEE]
The scene reopens with the same Camaro pulling into a spot designated "Jay Raven" in the parking structure under the garden. A purple 2010 Toyota Camry LE pulls in next to it. Out of the cars come Raven, Long, the cameraman, Roxxi, and Josh. Raven begins walking towards the building, with Long trying to keep up behind him, and everyone else following behind Long.
Long:::So, here we are on...Stop 2? I would believe on the Harrison Tou-
Raven:::Stop 2 on the Ryan Harrison BFF Tour. Say it right, or don't say it at all.
Long:::*mumbles*Sorry psychopath.
Raven:::Excuse me?
Long:::N-nothing sir. Anyway, we are here in the LEGENDARY Madison Square Garden. Home of IWF Inception 2010! Raven has brought us here to...uh to...why are we here exactly?
Raven:::Because, the lighter fuel is in my dressing room. I forgot to pack it in the trunk before we left. Besides, this works out to our advantage, because there is a little message I wanted to give Harrison here as well. *Turns to Roxxi and Sparrow* Guys, go into my dressing room and grab the juice. I'm heading to ringside ok?
Sparrow:::Whatevs, come on Sisinlaw.
Sparrow and Roxxi take a sharp left, and leave the group as Long and Raven continue through the parking lot, into the back, and finally on the long stretch towards ringside. Raven soaks up the intensity of the empty arena, before entering the already constructed ring. Long tries to enter, but Raven shakes his head no.
Raven:::Are you watching closely Harrison. This is the very arena where Hulk Hogan won his first WWF World Title and ushered in the entity of Hulkamania. This is where Muhammad Ali lost his first match to one Joe Frazier This is where...Jay Raven made Ryan Harrison lay down in a puddle of his own blood, unresponsive for a 10 count, and thereby winning a Last Man Standing match.
History says that this place loves firsts, and Raven is all about being a first. I am going to be the first man to make the "almighty" Ryan Harrison bow to my feet. Harrison, this little "feud" we have going on, it's never going to end, let me tell you that. You think that you can get rid of me, but just like your plain nature, I'm here to stay. I won't have to haunt you forever Harrison, you won't have to worry about that, but come on, best friends are always there for each other right Harrison? Always. I am like that bad itch that won't ever go away. This actually benefits you Harrison, I'll always be there for you to use as that meaningless excuse as to why your still opening up the show, and I'm main eventing it. Look at me, getting ahead of myself. Let's not worry about where I am going, let's focus on right now. See this ring Harrison, this will be the first thing you see when you get in it to face me. Now look up and see the rafters. Those bolts will be the very last thing you see after your being stretchered out of the arena because of the profuse bleeding, and the temporary blindness due to poison mist in your face. I don't know how it feels to be a loser Harrison, but I'm pretty sure as my Best Friend, you describe it to me as I drive your dreams into the mat with a DEAD ending you, and if I'm lucky your career here in the IWF.
No wait, I shouldn't say that. I want you to continue here. How can I make your life a living hell, if your a door to door tupperware salesman? I want you to keep trying to get at me Harrison. Futile efforts make me laugh. There isn't much else to say other than that. You against me is nothing more than a futile effort. Do you know what I do with futile efforts? I dive bomb headfirst into them. I compress there torso's and make all the air in them escape through the mouth. I leave them with nothing but a whimper as a man in white counts to ten. Take note to all of these traits Harrison and tell me if you don't feel deja vu come Inception.
As Raven finishes this sentence, Roxxi and Sparrow come running up to ringside, carrying large clear plastic jugs Raven brushes back his hair and looks back to the camera.
Raven:::Time to light it up Harrison. This next part is dedicated just to you.
The scene fades to black with Raven exiting the ring, and dragging Long behind him as the group heads back to the parking lot.

[MARQUEE]Harrison BFF Tour Stop 3!: Central Park, NYC[/MARQUEE]
The scene opens a few hours after the groups trip to Madison Square Garden. It is late at night and a group of people have gathered around what seems to be a large figure covered in a blue tarp that reads "Raven's Best Friend in bright white". Chatter goes around as the camera find Raven and co. pouring the contents of the clear buckets on the blue tarp covered structure. Raven empties his bottle, and turns to see the cameraman smiling. Roxxi, Sparrow, and Long continue, as Raven approaches the camera.
Raven:::Beautiful isn't it? It took about four hours to build. But as an artist, it wasn't too hard. I mean I had to capture the blandness just right, so it was a little hard, but I mean it's pretty easy to portray boring in an art piece. I bet your wondering whats under it huh? Well, I'll give you a hint. Read the sign on the tarp.
As the camera zooms in on the words on the tarp, Long runs up to Raven panting.
Long:::Okay Raven, my job is an interviewer, not your little helper monkey. B-but we are done. We poured the lighter fluid on the wood. It's ready to go up whenever your ready to let it.
Raven:::Brilliant.
Raven walks over to the structure, microphone in hand, and addresses the crowd.
Raven:::Welcome one and all to the "Harrison BFF Tour Stop 3!" Campfire! All of which is dedicated to my best friend and opponent at IWF Inception, Ryan Harrison! Now I bet your all wondering, "Jay, whats under the tarp?" Or "Jay haven't you taken this best friend thing to the limit" Well let me tell you now, no. I haven't. But this, this my friends WILL! Take a look behind door...number...THREE!
Raven, Sparrow, and Roxxi pull down the blue tarp to show a 20 foot tall wooden replica of Ryan Harrison. It shows all the uniqueness that Harrison shows, so in other words, none at all. It looks damp and soaked, as the lighter fluid has soaked through the tarp and drenched it.
Harrison, this is all for you. All of it. I did this to show you just how much you light the fire in my IWF career. You make me strive to be more violent so that I will never have to encounter anyone like you ever again. What do I mean? You remember my plan right? To eliminate everyone in IWF? YOU inspire me to do that! As boring and unoriginal as you are, YOU drive me to new levels of insanity. That is why your my best friend Harrison. You drive me to better myself in the ring, because If I can't beat you then I must really be low on the IWF totem pole. You thought I had some sort of attraction to you huh? All the talks of you being my best friend? No. This is strictly because you are the driving force behind my hatred of this place. Just like I said in the hardware store. You epitome what I hate in this company. Your the exact same as every fucking person around you. Your either goody goody, or some bad ass who thinks he can brag without accomplishing shit.
But then people say, I'm just that psycho character. Wake up world, I'm not a character! Which is why I made this structure for Harrison. People like Harrison are the reason why everyone in wrestling is deemed a character. Ryan week in and week out comes with the "I'm gonna make it big time" speech, and it drives me insane. But no more. This is what I have to say to Harrison and all his crap!
Raven strikes a match off of his boot and tosses it at the structure, lighting it almost instantly ablaze. The fire garners general reactions of fear and applause. Some people run away, others stand and bask in it's presence. I mean, have you seen a 20 foot burning man? Well, unless you've been to Burning Man, I don't think so.
Take a good look Harrison. Just as this boring wooden replica of a man lights on fire so quickly, as will you when I send you straight to hell via my flight. This stopped being a feud a long time ago Harrison. This is a war. A war that unfortunately, might never end. I don't think there is a statement alive, that you can say now, that will save you from my wrath. All I hope is that you don't come to the ring in pieces like this tower of you will be in a couple of minutes. I hope you bring your A game, maybe it will comfort you as you leave a broken shell of a man. This is all for you my best friend. I told you that friendships with me hurt. And if I didn't break your soul by now, I guess I'll break your body first to get to it. Welcome to the world that is Raven's World. Welcome to your personal...fucking...nightmare. Get it? Got it? Good.
Raven stands there and looks up at the structure with Roxxi and Sparrow standing next to him, smirking as the twenty foot tall Harrison begins to fall to the ground, almost lighting up the entire Central Park. Long begins to make a run for it, and Raven and co. slowly walk away as firemen arrive to the scene to put the blaze out.
