Title: The tag team of glory!
Location: Shopping district’s arena
He was a weak boy.
Of weak spirit. Of weak body. He led a weak lifestyle.
Without a purpose, he let himself be carried away by the surroundings
leading an unbearably mediocre lifestyle.
However, a certain day.
He had a changing experience.
Arena
On top of the ring,
there was a fight between two wrestlers.
An exchange of techniques. The match drawing to a close,
going back and forth.
Cheers for one of the wrestlers became louder,
but the opponent managed to land a direct hit.
The end of the match was imminent.
If it continued like this, his defeat would be assured.
… Hah!!
A shy young boy raised his voice.
He yelled the wrestler’s name.
Rather, the name of his hero,
he shouted it again and again.
The wrestler couldn’t disappoint him.
He stood up, and let out a big roar.
A swift combo, quick jabs.
Everyone’s voices started counting down.
The spectators let out the biggest cheer yet.
That was the day when everything changed for that boy.
The day where he was given a reason to live.
A world that he didn’t know much about,
that day, a fascinating new universe opened for him.
“I want to be like him”
From that day on, he will aim to become a hero.
Those memories in his chest. Glory as his motivation.
… Yes.
A hero, a profesional wrestler.
- Ikebukuro, Underground Arena -
Among loud cheers, there was one man standing on the ring,
howling towards the sky.
His fingers pointing to the skies, with an inspiring speech
and his trademark bull-shaped green mask.
It was a battleground, the Ikebukuro Underground Arena.
And in the middle of the ring there was a young raging bull.
Taurus Mask threw the microphone he was holding,
and jumped on top of one of the posts of the ring.
The mike made a shrieking noise when it hit the floor.
After every move, the audience’s cheers grew louder.
Leg lariat, elbow smash, high flyer.
Hip attack, kick drop.
Although still a bit unrefined,
he performed numerous wrestling moves. And then…
The cries of victory reverberated across the arena.
Waiting Room
At that moment, someone from outside
called Taurus Mask’s name.

Suddenly from right beside Taurus Mask,
someone unexpectedly slapped his back, throwing him to the ground.

(Battle)
Taurus Mask’s high flyer
threw Doskoi Mask to the ground.
However, Doskoi mask got up immediately,
and started running towards his opponent, ramming into him.
This took him by surprise, and Taurus Mask
was thrown off against one of the posts.
“… igh… ma…”
Suddenly.
Among the loud hustle, only for a second.
In a really soft voice.
There was a voice calling my name.
“… igh… Taurus Ma…”
As I’m opening slightly my eyes…
I could recognize the figure of a young boy.
“Fight… Taurus Mask…!”
That small voice was calling out for me.
And that small voice gradually got louder and louder.
He was grasping both his hands tightly.
Such a small body, but his voice was so loud.
Ah, that reminds me of my old self.
The hero was knocked down…
But this kid was still cheering for him, just like myself long ago.
…That’s right, I’m a hero.
At least, I’ll be the hero for that kid.
I know exactly what I must do.
Then, what are you doing that you are not getting up?
Yes, this is my dream as Taurus Mask.
I have been waiting for this for a long time.
“Fiiiight! Taurus Maaaask!”
Those words give me the power.
Those words give me the courage.
The hero always stands up.
Time and time again.
I will show this kid a miracle.
Yes, I want him to believe that miracles like these can happen.
Taurus Mask stood up.
Still shaking, he pointed to the skies.
With [Player] watching over him.
Everyone was staring at Taurus Mask.
That great wrestler that changed him a long time ago.
For a moment, his presence overlapped with Taurus Mask.
The roar of the ferocious bull reverberated all across the venue.
The new legend of Taurus Mask.
Today, a new episode starts.

He got silent.
Taurus caressed his mask.
Taurus Mask’s face turned red and began to speak quickly.
While holding their hands,
they rushed to meet the fans.
And again as a tag team
they marched forward, and the gong rang once more.
