Chapter 6: Warm proof of kinship and burning retribution, Wrestling gym Arc, Act 2.

The arena tonight had its fill of good matches. Firstly the match between the beautiful seductive Vampire Midnight and the country girl Centaur Urus the latter controlled the first half of the match with her tactic of an all-out attack even though some of it missed Midnight who then used her sultry figure to bypass the attacks of the Centaur and then finished her off with her deadly gaze before pinning her. Diana and Rachnera had the crowd on their toes with their game of Chicken-no insult intended for Chicken birdmen or Harpy's- where they tested who gave in first to the other's bindings until the Jorogumo finally won when she started increasing her playing field by flustering Diana from kissing her to tongue dominance with her which made most of the men and some of the ladies feel hot. The tag team match was mostly in the favour of the Predatory monsters Eris and Raha who easily beaten Jenny and Navi despite the former's ability to keep up with their opponent's beastly strength and the latter's ability to cast water spells they were defeated. Now finally the main event between the Dragon Ajidaa and the Cerberus Tirol will take place.

In ringside a Unicorn dressed as a journalist was writing down notes 'Well the show isn't really great all I can get right now is writing an article about the tag team of Eris and Raha on how they'll represent Cherry ton in the upcoming world tag team tournament this summer' the journalist then looked up 'Even though the main event has a Dragon and a Cerberus from what I heard the latter is a rookie and this's her debut, what are the Cherry ton people thinking putting a rookie's debut match on the main event?'

Ajidaa made her way down the ring with a confidence enough to move a mountain but despite that the fans weren't really paying it any mind which would have made the Dragon feel angry but the way they showed their disinterest was as if they were expecting something or someone else it made her feel…nervous?

Shaking her head Ajidaa tried to refocus 'No what is wrong with me feeling this way? I'm strong and soon they'll realize it as well I'll force them to if I have to' she thought to herself as she began thinking back to a time where her once powerful family fell from grace.

Behind the ramp the Director along with his assistance a Cheetah Beastwoman watched over "Is she alright? She doesn't seem to be herself" the Pelican Birdman pointed his worries.

"Well she's been a good heel so far but this's the first time she gets a main evet spot so maybe she's just a little bit nervous? It doesn't help that Lois's injury is currently our biggest story yet" his assistance deduced before looking at her fellow kin member with pity and worry 'Don't pay them any mind Ajidaa there here to hear from Lois so you can't blame them for being a little disappointed.'

As the Dragon finished her introduction some of the fans reacted positively whilst the majority chose to remain silent that one coughed making Ajidaa subtly enraged this was felt by the duo behind the curtain who wanted to help but were unable and soon they snapped out of their thoughts and reflections by footsteps looking back the two were greeted by Tirol the normally reserved Cerberus looking intimidating in what one would consider the first time ever "Tirol? You look intimidating that's great hopefully you don't mind losing."

Tirol didn't hear what the Pelican had to say because right now she's focused on one thing and one thing only 'Ajidaa.'

"I mean I doubt you can really beat Ajidaa and your still a rookie that for some reason Kayla-" the Birdman was interrupted when the Cerberus forcefully shoved him away from her path making him gulp.

"Tirol are you okay?" the assistant asked but the Cerberus ignored her as she went by passed her.

'If you think the blood you drank counts as justified doping' the Cerberus spoke to her opponent through her mind as she exited the curtains appearing on the ramp being greeted by Ajidaa's smirk as Tirol was being introduced 'Then show me your enhanced performance just so I can crush every part of it.'

As the Cerberus walked down slowly in an intimidating manner rather than a nervous one Ajidaa snatched the microphone from the ring announcer in the middle of Tirol's introduction "You look mad Mutt why is that? You should be glad that your allowed to be here let alone in the main e-" the Dragon couldn't continue her taunting as suddenly in a pass of a second Tirol was in front of her as she delivered a punch to her face knocking her back leaning on the ropes which got gasps from all over the arena. Ajidaa gritted her sharp teeth in pain as she was greeted by the look of death from Tirol 'Hey are you crazy? Stop it we didn't even start yet.'

"I told you I'll make you pay Ajidaa" Tirol spoke in a whisper of rage the Referee was stunned before deciding to call the bell.

DING! DING!
Tirol didn't really need the bell to deliver her punches at her opponent at a successive pace not giving her opponent a lick of a chance to catch her breath or process the pain 'Damn it! What the hell is going on? The audience they are getting impressed more than they were before.'

"What's going on?" "What is that?" "The fight began before the bell rung." "Is this some cutting edge match?" "This's kind of scary." "Really? I think it's kind of cool."

At ringside our Unicorn journalist gulped as she began taking photos 'Is this Cerberus mental? Or is some drama is going on behind the scenes? Nonetheless lucky me a scoop.'

Back in the ring Tirol was about to land another one of her punches but her hand was intercepted by and angered Ajidaa "I believe this's enough Mutt don't play hero with me as a perfect carnivore who hides her urges and hunger for meat" Ajidaa then got Tirol up in the air before throwing her at the turnbuckle with full force as her back connected with the steel before Tirol could recover Ajidaa slammed her gigantic frame at the pinned Tirol pressing her against the steel turnbuckle the Dragon leaned in whispering "I can tell you smelled the blood of a human before haven't you? You wouldn't have reacted to it so strongly otherwise right? Did you injure a human before or killed one?" Tirol answer was in the form of an angry glare that was hiding guilt behind it this caused Ajidaa to smirk seeing she was somewhat correct "You're so easy to read all I ask is for you to calm down we'll surely understand one another" Tirol attempted to shove Ajidaa away but she stopped when she felt a warm pain on her back "Accept this gift a mark of kinship between sister meat eaters" Tirol fell back leaning on the ropes for support trying to endure this kind of pain as red droplets started falling off the Cerberus promoting the Ref to check on it as Ajidaa brought her left claw up covered in blood as Tirol fell on her knee holding her scratched bloody back which caused the fans to shudder in both fear and disgust.

"Tirol can you continue?" the Ref asked trying to keep her stomach from turning in of itself.

"Yes I can and I'll beat her" Tirol answered trying to get back up on her feet's but to endure the bloody pain on her back proved taxing for the young Cerberus 'Her terrifying words resonate in my ears this blood seeping from my back is similar to hers the blood of a murderous meat eater it is lukewarm, helpless and heart-breaking it caused me nothing but grief.'

"Don't fall yet if you do the match is over" Ajidaa pointed out as she turned around swinging her tail like a whip Tirol managed to duck in the last second before getting herself back up delivering a kick towards the human face of the Dragon but the serpent mouth of her body caught the kick as it swung Tirol outside but the Cerberus managed to land on her feet's in the last second she looked up being greeted by Ajidaa's hand that attempted to catch her but Beru the extra head on her left opened it's own mouth biting the hand forcing it back as Ajidaa held it in pain Tirol took advantage of this window as she used the ropes to jump up and deliver a spin kick to the side of Ajidaa's head Tirol climber her back grabbing the horns on top of her opponent's head as she began giving her headbutts from the backside.

Backstage

The members of Tirol's silk the rookies watched in both shock and fear the former for their fellow rookie the shy reserved Cerberus being this driven and intimidating in a match whilst the latter on how this match is going, one doesn't need to be professional in the world of interspecies combat to see that this fight is getting out of hand and both opponents desire more than just victory. Lois watched with calculation on the special seat Ajidaa prepared for her 'These two fools are they trying to give us a bad reputation?' the Red Deer grabbed her crutches as she got and began walking out towards the ring.

Back in the ring

Tirol continued on delivering her vicious headbutts as each time she was delivering her mind pictured a scenario where she hurt or killed the human that she met and this only caused her to increase her pace. Ajidaa gritted her teeth as she believes her brain is going to fall off from all of these headbutts she tried to get the Cerberus off of her from throwing her off, spinning around so she losses balance from a dizzy spinning head or slam herself on the mat but proved to be useful as the Cerberus kept holding on Ajidaa smirked as an idea formed in her head she brought her elbow up before striking the Cerberus with it while also using the serpent tail to grab her from behind and pull but the Cerberus refused to let go despite her hands and arms giving up she took a gamble opening her mouth revealing her sharp canines before digging them on her opponent's shoulder Ajidaa despite the pain shot a smirk to her opponent Tirol despite her initial anger did grow weary of the smirk her opponent shot her with suddenly Tirol felt bites along with stings a whole lot of them causing her to scream and fall down as numerous Insect like creatures were coming out of Ajidaa's shoulder wound and began grouping on Tirol.

The Cerberus screamed and moaned as the Insects were biting her flesh, draining her blood, grouping on her back wound releasing their venom but her moans were silenced as one of the small critters muffled her mouth forbidding her from using it to breath, a light chuckle was heard as Tirol looked up being greeted by Ajidaa who licked her shoulder wound with her serpent like tongue "I compliment your efforts to fight against me but now it's futile once a wound appears on an Azhi Dahaka no matter how big or small poisonous Insects come out to attack the opponent of an Azhi Dahaka it's a natural defence mechanism for my kind" the heel explained to her grounded opponent who's now face down on the mat with her eyes threatening to shut but was unable to keep them open as darkness overshadowed her mind the ref got down to check on Tirol shaking her Ajidaa looked at Tirol momentarily before turning around with a small smile "Call the bell ref she's not getting up not after this much venom enters her system."

Ajidaa was about to leave the ring until something was thrown at her from behind getting her attention looking back Ajidaa's eyes widened seeing Tirol slowly getting up as she was crushing the small critters that came out of her shoulder wound "Where do you think you're going? I told you I'm settling this in the ring and I haven't settled anything yet."

The audience began clapping and cheering for the display of courage and guts the young Cerberus rookie is showing, Ajidaa was bug eyed seeing the Cerberus stand back up after her little critters swarmed her "How did you resist this much venom in your systems?" Ajidaa asked surprised but then chuckled "It seems Kayla did have a good eye only the most strongest creatures can survive this much venom that is if they don't have venom anti-bodies and Cerberus's don't have anti-bodies for venom so I commend you for surviving that but your still going down!" Ajidaa then brought her index nail up cutting into her wrist as Wasps got out from it as they began buzzing showing their stingers as they rushed at the Cerberus whom got her claws ready to swat the Wasps who were smacked but instead of making them fall to be crushed like their fellow critters before them they instead continued flying buzzing louder than before as they stung Tirol's damaged bloody back making the Cerberus fall down on her hands and knees but then she caught the Wasps in her grip before throwing them away but again their speed increased as they rushed at Tirol whom struggled to stand up straight time seemed to slow down for Tirol who thought she was in some sort of an illusion but then she remembered what they the rookies were taught about how trained Wrestlers and those who suffer accidents feel things slowing down for them as the seconds torn into dozens of seconds in a single minute the buzzing of the Wasps along with the crowd's reaction were slowed down tremendously in this illusion Tirol found herself in but the Cerberus was focused on one thing and one thing only.

Ajidaa despite her pain which was evident in the saliva line that formed underneath her mouth had the smirk of assured victory in her grasp Tirol's eyes turned deadly as she saw Ajidaa not as her opponent but as an enemy seeing the image of a bloody torn Miyuki in her mind taking in a deep breath along with Beru and Bero the Cerberus girl released her howls as they created soundwaves that hit her opponent head on along with her Wasps as they combusted into bloody spots whilst Ajidaa struggled to cover her ears, the attended fans dug their fingers in their own ears trying to forbid the soundwaves of the Cerberus howls from entering but to no avail. Ajidaa was struck as she stood still with a pained look on her face and one could have sworn they saw stars circling around her head.

Tirol slowly approached her stiffed opponent with her claws and fangs ready each step the Cerberus made was heard through the silent arena like an echo Ajidaa slowly recovered as she was greeted by the smirk of a demonic looking Cerberus with shinning crimson eyes "Your justified doping amounted to nothing but your defeat" Tirol whispered in an angered threatening tone as she raised her fists up as she threw it at her opponent's face just as the fist was closing in it stopped inches away from Ajidaa's face the fist shook as it struggled to stay up or even clenched Ajidaa smirked as she chuckled sounds of droplets could be heard near Tirol's back as a stinger in the end of Ajidaa's serpent like tail hit the back of the Cerberus with the crimson droplets of Tirol's life seeping in it before falling on the mat.

"You exceeded my expectations that much I'll give you but you still have too much to learn like not playing all of your cards from the very beginning" Ajidaa spoke in a near whisper of praise "Now fall down and accept your fate o sad little Cerberus" Ajidaa removed her stinger as Tirol fell back on the mat unable to get up Ajidaa looked over Tirol as she leaned to her level "I'm the lead player here I have to look good while finishing this off since you took much of the fans cheers and praises early on and I got just the thing how about a little shame hold?" Ajidaa whispered giggling at her opponent who could only growl and just as she was about to grab Tirol by her legs something smacked her arms away.

"You look like your having fun" Lois's voice spoke surprising the two opposing beasts as their sights along with those of the attending fans was sole on the injured Deer as Lois used one of her canes to keep Ajidaa's arms away from Tirol the Beastar candidate of Cherry ton shot the heel with a knowing look "Sorry but I'm putting you back down low it's a much more fitting role for you" Lois whispered to Ajidaa before hitting her with the canes causing the Ref to call for the bell.

DING! DING!

"The match is ended by DQ in the favour of Ajidaa."

However despite the end of the gruelling match the tension surrounding the mat has yet to be resolved "Lois why?" Ajidaa asked taken back.

"What's the problem? The lead main eventer is back!" Lois announced.

"Lois what are you doing?" Tirol whispered in taken back curiosity.

Lois turned back to Tirol "Just leave the rest to me and rest you already did too many spots to excite the fans if you do more they'll lose interests in you as a spot puller" Lois whispered.

"All right" Tirol whispered back as she nodded.

"YEAH!" "LOIS!" "I KNEW SHE'S HERE!" "WOW!"

"I shall tell you why Dragon I know of your evil deeds thus I can no longer trust you with a main event spot ever again" Lois answered Ajidaa's question as a flashback played showing the canes bounded Lois overhearing the confrontation between Tirol and Ajidaa.

"Huh?" Ajidaa was taken back.

"I dare you to take a drink of my blood only then will you ever be a real main eventer!" Lois announced as Ajidaa felt shocked knowing the message behind Lois's use of 'blood' as she stepped back a little "Well what is it? There is no need for a fake!"

"Damn you seriously?" Ajidaa could only whisper as the fans cheers increased 'I have been completely been disposed of' Ajidaa thought in horrible understanding as she ran back to the ramp.

'The cheers of the fans are only a sign of extraordinary success and the one responsible is non other than Lois' Tirol reflected as she looked at Lois who looked back at her and gave her a helping hand up which made Cerberus taken back.

"Are you okay?" Lois asked Tirol nodded slowly "You were in the right."

Once hearing that Tirol accepted the helping hand up as Lois got her on her knees raising her hand up in victory despite losing in a DQ and the fans couldn't stop cheering.

Sometime after backstage

It took a long while until the fans finally left the building satisfied with what they saw. The Cherry ton members like always were gathered after their show with Tirol's back being wrapped within white bandages as the Cerberus was being checked by the medical team "Alright the fans were really happy with the main event and all of them left our building satisfied" the assistant director spoke before shooting a glare towards Tirol and Ajidaa "But the way you two fought before the match could even begin scared the hell out of us, so what's going on between you two?" the two girls remained silent which made the assistant sigh a little bit before continuing "If you don't explain yourselves the Herbivore members won't be able to associate with you guys anymore."

"It looked like Tirol started the fight" Centorea pointed out .

"Yeah I did" Tirol admitted.

"Why is that?" Kayla asked in curiosity as she shot Ajidaa with a questioning look.

Ajidaa in return looked away grumbling 'Great now she'll snitch on me and I'm going to be punished.'

"I can't say" Tirol answered shocking Ajidaa who looked at her with surprise.

"I don't get it your normally so quite" Mero said feeling scared of something she doesn't understand.

"Anyways the two of you need to settle whatever it is that happened between you" the assistant director demanded.

"Um Lois looked completely livid when she came back behind the ramp" the director revealed.

The assistant sighed as she massaged her eyes "Yeah that too" after finishing the Cheetah Beastwoman then shot the two guilty parties with a deadpan look "You two need to see Lois right now."

"What?" Tirol asked.

"Us two?" Ajidaa pointing back at Tirol and at herself.

"Yeah you two go thank and apologize to her" the assistant answered the two glared at each other with fury causing the Cheetah to tick in anger "If you don't get this over with we'll avoid all contact with you and don't start fighting right when you leave!"

The two gave in as they got up and walked away as they walked Ajidaa decided to kill some time with something she felt curious about ever since the two got back "Hey Tirol."

"What?" the Cerberus asked.

"Why didn't you tell them I drank human blood? What's your game?"

Tirol looked down sighing before raising head up whilst her eyes are still closed "They didn't need to know that."

"The real problem is Lois seems to know considering what she said when we were in the ring."

"Lois who did she know?" Tirol asked equally taken back.

"Well shit she might as well be the one to expose me" Ajidaa complained as she sighed before shooting Tirol with an inquisitive look "Hey Tirol the way you were fighting me I can tell it wasn't just to win against me I can tell from my experience with those who wanted to win against me by any means necessary you fought me like that because you wanted to feel you were in the right I can teel that much from how desperate you seemed in the fight" Ajidaa revealed much to Tirol's shock that she stopped walking and looked at Ajidaa who in return continued walking in their destination "I don't know what kind of attachment your folks seem to have towards the Goddess clan religion but there's no use fighting over it we're both Carnivore's we eat meat to sustain our health and strength including that of humans."

"Um what does the Goddess clan have to do with this?" Tirol asked.

"Wow I knew you were dim-witted and stupid but even you have to know that the humans of this world are either under the supremacy of the Goddess clan where they act as their loyal druids or the Demon clan where they act as their cattle" Ajidaa revealed.

'Then what of him?' Tirol asked with widened eyes as an image of Miyuki appeared on her mind.

"Hurry up and pick up the pace we need to get to Lois and I'm not taking the scolding by myself" Ajidaa complained snapping Tirol out of her thoughts as she started catching up.

A/N: Well if you can tell I decided to only write the main event the reason for that is to save time and not take the readers off track by writing things that they may consider filler for the overall plot. I originally thought about writing all the matches but I decided against it for the reasons I just pointed out please don't flame me ahem I meant to say hopefully you guys found this chapter exciting I know I was when writing this. Thanks for reading and have a nice day.
