Convict Colosseum: Epilogues

Summary:

Where did the fighters end up after they served their sentences?

Work Text:

THE PURE ONE

Having renounced his ties to the Aryan Brotherhood, The Pure One had become a pariah among his former comrades, and was met with much abuse upon returning to prison. Upon serving his sentence, he began to travel across the world, visiting different countries and experiencing their cultures in order to broaden his narrow-minded view of other races.

THE NATURAL ATHLETE

The next sport The Natural Athlete took up was boxing. Now a laughingstock among sports fans, he shocked them all when he successfully managed to win the Cruiserweight title belt. The secret as to how he overcame his nerves was simple; after experiencing the Colosseum, no fighter he ever encountered in the ring could ever feel as terrifying. 

FIRECRACKER

The boy who ran away from home to be trained by Firecracker never told his parents or the authorities the truth, being afraid of how his family would react. But as he grew older, the guilt of him indirectly sending an innocent man to prison became too much to ignore, and he finally confessed everything, resulting in Firecracker's eventual release. Though the boy initially believed that Firecracker would never be able to forgive him, the two eventually grew to become close friends, and when Firecracker started his own Lethwei gym to teach the disadvantaged youth that boy became his prize student.

THE SAMOAN HUNTSMAN

The Huntsman's execution of his own commander drew much scrutiny from the US Military on the Samoan super-soldier program. Fear began to spread that these soldiers weren't truly loyal to the United States, and would eventually turn upon them as the Huntsman did. This lead to the ultimate cancellation of the program. The Samoan Huntsman died never knowing that he saved his own kinsmen from sharing his fate.

THE SCOURGE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA

As in keeping with the tradition of "Devil's Row", the guards in the Scourge's prison unlocked his cell, allowing the other prisoners to enter. They had found that the Scourge had already hung himself with his own bedsheets. His suicide note would drive much attention from the media for its cryptic nature: "Sorry Karmic, but its too late for me to accept your offer."

ICE CREAM TRUCK

Ice Cream Truck would eventually find a way to combine his hypnotic humming with the mantras he had learned from his time training with monks, allowing him to put others in a state of enlightened bliss. Recordings of this sound grew somewhat popular as a meditation aid, though Ice Cream Truck didn't care about profits anymore. After all the mistakes he had made in his past, helping others achieve inner peace was the best he could do to atone. 

THE SCORCHING TEMPEST

When The Scorching Tempest served his sentence and returned to his dojo, he had discovered he had become something of a local celebrity. The legend of his Rising Phoenix Howling Tempest Kick was spread by every student who had witnessed it, and the dojo had become more popular than ever. His master suggested that he should take over the dojo, but Tempest refused. He was never really interested in being a teacher, and besides, with his newfound notoriety more challengers than ever were coming for him.  

FLORIDA MAN

Florida Man finally managed to give up drugs and start a new life. This lasted for all of six months. He was last seen wrestling an alligator naked in a Waffle House.

LITERALLY HITLER

Literally Hitler decided to take drastic measures and rebrand himself as a Charlie Chaplin impersonator. For the first time in his life he was beloved by the public, and he was on top of the world... until somebody pointed out that Charlie Chaplin had impregnated a sixteen year-old girl. He is currently now trying to find a non-controversial figure with a toothbrush moustache. 

NEVER-ENDING

Never Ending was inspired once again to pursue wrestling, and eventually came to win Silver Medal at the Olympic Games. He claims that if the time limit wasn't so short, he would've taken home the Gold. 

THE MAGIC

In 1999, Johnson joined the Swedish squad M7 Borås (now known as 'Borås Basket'), and was undefeated in five games with the team.[150][151] Johnson also became a co-owner of the club;[152] however, the project failed after one season and the club was forced into reconstruction.[152] He later joined the Danish team The Great Danes.

BOOGIE WOOGIE

One of the VIPs who was amused by Boogie Woogie's dancing was a powerful music executive, who offered him the chance to star in his own album. The album was a major flop; even if disco was still in style, it was sub-par for the genre. Boogie Woogie was still grateful to have a shot, at least.

DANGER

Danger eventually married the beautiful actress who had kissed him on set. The forces in Hollywood were still envious of him, and did their best to blacklist him from the industry and smear him with slanderous rumours in tabloid magazines. Danger didn't care anymore; after all the life-threatening stunts he had pulled off, this stuff was laughable in comparison.

MONKEY SEE

His passion for martials arts reinvigorated by all the strong fighters he had seen, Monkey See began training himself as hard as he could. He would eventually try to track down as many of the other convicts as possible, both to fight with them and learn from them. 

VIOLENCE INCARNATE

For the first time in his life, Violence Incarnate felt absolute fear and helplessness when he faced El Cucaracho. This caused him to question for the first time everything his father had taught him about mercilessness. To his own surprise, he voluntarily served out his own sentence, using it as an opportunity to rethink his life. Upon his release, he would join a Buddhist monastery, still pursuing the perfection of his martial arts but renouncing the violence that he once sought to embody. 

THE ABYSS

Jared was found suffocated to death in the middle of his own pornography store. Those who personally knew Jared claim it was probably just a case of autoerotic asphyxiation gone wrong, but the police suspect homicide. No leads have been found. 

THE AMERICAN DREAM AND HOLY SCYTHE

The American Dream and Holy Scythe launched a new crusade in the name of God and America, landing in Russia. They were quickly apprehended and taken to a secret military prison. Rumour has it that the powerful politicians who came to admire The American Dream's bizarre charisma are spearheading a secret operation to rescue him.

TOMAHAWK

Tomahawk would return to the Navajo Nation and found his own martial arts school. This school would eventually become famous as being one of the most elite martial arts schools in the entire world, with many MMA champions having graduated from its hall. Once again, the world has been reminded that the strongest warriors under the sun are the Navajo.
