Warrior, listen up. The VIP boxes are packed with sponsors today, and those fat-cat bastards are demanding a special Halloween show. Bullets don't impress them anymore – they paid me a fortune for some old-school horror aesthetics. They want good, old-fashioned, primal knife fights. There's only one rule – forget about firearms. Grab some steel, get in there, and start carving them up. Oh, and they brought me a box full of old masks, too. So you'll be gutting each other while wearing those. Now go on, give them a good scare and spill some blood.
