Jet Somers walks proudly onto the stage, all smiles and waving, but cringing for a moment when he sees Hans Lieberjosch and Nicholas Vinegar glaring daggers at him. He sheepishly turns and strides to the podium.
Jet: Good evening!
The crowd pops again, and Jet has to wait for them to calm down.
Jet: Sixteen years ago, a unique voice was added to the commentary team on Lock Wrestling Federation's weeky show, Warzone. That voice sang of ninjas and dragons, and great places to eat, popular television shows, and innoncently praised the talents and beauty of the competitors he couldn't hold himself to providing play by play for.
The crowd chuckles.
Jet: Since the start of this decade, he has provided an element of fun and spontaneity to the broadcast team here in UGWC, an unexpected third perspective that doesn't read the vanilla script about your hero's biography, and doesn't play sychophant to your most hated villains. If that voice is coming from ringside, or from some hidden perch broadcast over Ninja Redtooth, it's always a welcome and refreshing voice even if you can never guess what it's going to say next.
There's a bit of a hush as the crowd waxes sentimental considering how many times the inductee's voice has brought humor and excitement to some of the most dramatic moments of their careers.
Jet: I can't imagine the beginning of my career without his inspiring shout, the welcome I needed as I awkwardly found my footing in the business. I feel it's appropriate that we welcome him to the Hall of Fame tonight by inviting him out here the same way he welcomed so many of us to the ring over and over. Will you join me?
With that, Jet walks away from the podium and to the edge of the stage, raising his arms and inviting the crowd to join him. Slowly, most of the crowd of competitors, fans, and staff get to their feet, and Jet waits until everyone is ready before cocking his head back and cupping his hands around his mouth. Everyone mimics the move, and in one unified voice, they all bellow at the tops of their lungs:
Everyone: NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
"Pomp and Circumstance" plays for a few seconds, and in a sudden burst of smoke, Covert Jay appears on the stage.
Covert Jay: HUTTAH!!
The crowd applauds as Jay opens his arms to them.
Covert Jay: This is an unexpected surprise that even I almost didn't see coming, but fortunately I read ahead and was prepared! First, I'd like to thank all of the dragons, as my career wouldn't be the same without their guidance. There was Arelas, A-Kis, Marek, Zombie Marek, and of course, the TWiSTeD Ninja Crazy Opie, just to name a few.
A "Dragon" chant breaks out in the crowd.
Covert Jay: DRRRRRRRRRAGGGGGGONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
His exclamation is met by cheers.
Covert Jay: It wasn't always easy, of course. I remember the headaches I would get whenever Dirge and Zane were in close proximity, or when Chaos and Vain attempted to argue with each other. Once I saw Jezebel and Eden together and my brain would have melted entirely had my mask not been in place to restrain it. But there were also the good times, like when nachos were served or Hans isn't talking.
There is laughter in the crowd, momentarily confusing Jay as he wasn't kidding.
Covert Jay: Most of all, I accept this honor as a validation of everything that is ninja. Alas, my obligations elsewhere call to me, but we will speak soon, as much action awaits this day! HUTTAH!!!
In another puff of smoke, he is gone.
