Chapter 114 (XAW Singles)
*Hotrina vs Bunny Bomber*
The crowd made wolf howls and blew whistles with their fingers at the women who came to the ring. First came Hotrina, who showed off her curves and brushed her hands on them for everyone to see. She strutted to the ring shaking her booty left and right.
Once Hotrina had settled herself in the ring, her opponent came, a woman with just as big a bust as Hotrina. She had pink hair on top of her head with white bunny ears sticking on top. She was dressed in a one-piece playboy outfit, black, fingerless gloves, white wristbands, and black boots with pink and white outlines and bunny drawings. Like Hotrina, she also put on a sexy show by shaking both her butt and her boobs for the crowd. She entered the ring across from Hotrina.
"Oh, boy. This is going to be a hot one, right here. Xtrema's sexy superstar, Hotrina, is taking on a former model and boxer who recently joined the world of wrestling, Bunny Bomber. These bombshells are squaring off in a bra and panties match."
"Not exactly, my fellow announcer." Sayuri said. "Bra and panties matches end when one of the ladies has been stripped down to their underwear. For this special match, I've added a stipulation that pins and submissions count for a win, but only after the losing opponent has been stripped down. I'm not letting a match end with just a wardrobe malfunction, especially on this night."
"Understandable, Ms. Rogue. Still, it sounds like there's going to be more fanservice here than we thought. Can't wait."
DING-DING!
Hotrina and Bunny Bomber met up with a collar and elbow tie-up. Hotrina pulled Bunny closer so their breasts would be pressed against each other and excite the fans. During the tie-up, Hotrina reached behind Bunny's playboy outfit and grabbed onto the laces keeping her costume together. Bunny noticed and broke the lock-up and pushed Hotrina away. She then hopped up and brought Hotrina down with a dropkick.
Hotrina was about to get up, but before she could, Bunny hopped up above her and stomped both her feet onto her stomach. Hotrina gasped in pain and clutched her stomach hard. While she was stunned, Bunny grabbed her by her hair and stood above her locking in a standing headscissors. Hotrina was stuck, but Bunny moved on with grabbing the laces on the back of her opponent's top and quickly untied it. She released her scissor hold to let Hotrina's top fall off of her chest.
After losing her top to the floor, Hotrina returned to her feet while the crowd stared at her hot pink bikini. Still though, she wasn't fazed. She instead looked at Bunny Bomber with a face that made her second guess herself. Hotrina took advantage of her guard down and speared her to the mat. She straddled her waist and used her knees to pin her arms down.
"You made a big mistake, cow." Hotrina said raising her hand up. She shot it straight across Bunny Bomber's breasts making the playboy bunny gasp with each slap.
Hotrina kept slapping Bunny's boobs until she stopped. She then lowered herself and planted her own boobs on top of Bunny's face. She turned the both of them over and used her arms to keep Bunny's head in her giant breasts. She used one hand to hold Bunny's top laces again and untie them. It didn't take long before Bunny was undressed in nothing but her purple bikini.
Hotrina released Bunny's head and stood up above her. Bunny breathed heavily with a blush over her face which quickly turned to anger.
"Already down to your undies." Hotrina taunted.
Bunny growled and returned to her feet. "It's not over yet, bitch! Once I'm done with you, I'll be one step closer to my goal!"
"Your goal?" Hotrina asked.
Bunny didn't follow up. She just ran forward and tackled Hotrina. Much to her surprise, she kept pushing until Hotrina's back collided with the corner turnbuckle. Bunny stepped back and held up her fists. She showed off her boxing skills by sending several punches to Hotrina's face and puts her down in a sitting position. Bunny changed to a mischievous grin as she turned and shook her ass. She stepped back and rubbed it roughly onto Hotrina's face.
The referee called for Bunny to release Hotrina. She held on until she was one count away from being disqualified. Hotrina's flustered face burned hot red as Bunny pulled her to the ring and flipped her over. It was easy for her to take Hotrina's bottomwear and remove it from her leaving her with nothing but her skimpy panties.
After recovering herself, Hotrina turned to Bunny Bomber and confronted her. Their breasts were pressed against each other as they looked at each other's eyes with hatred.
"Guess we're even now, aren't we?" Bunny asked.
"Oh, no. Even implies we're equals," Hotrina said, "And we are nowhere near equals, funbags?"
"You're calling me funbags? Have you looked down lately?"
"Pig."
"Slut."
Hotrina ended the exchange of insults with a slap across Bunny's face. She was stunned enough for Hotrina to pull her in for a side headlock. She pulled Bunny in closer covering half of her face with her right breast.
"Doesn't your face feel good against my boob?" Hotrina taunted before throwing Bunny to the ropes. When she ran back, Hotrina brought her down with a lariat.
Hotrina grabbed Bunny's hair to pick her up, but the playboy bunny elbowed her in the chest and escaped the hold. She then picked Hotrina up with a bearhug.
"Don't give up, sweetie." Bunny said before following with a belly-to-belly suplx. "I'm not done yet!" She stopped to pose for the crowd. She took in the cheers that came from the whistling fans.
All the while, Hotrina was picking herself up. She charged at Bunny, but the playboy cover girl surprised her with a kick that hit her in the stomach. She then lifted Hotrina up readying for a powerbomb, but Hotrina managed to evade and counter with a roll-up pin.
1… 2…
Bunny kicked out, but after that, Hotrina ran at her and struck her with the knee. She covered her again.
1… 2…
Once again, Bunny kicked out. Hotrina slapped her opponent to stun her and lifted her up for a powerbomb of her own. But like before, Bunny struggled to reverse the hold with a sunset flip. However, unlike before, Hotrina grabbed Bunny's legs and hung her over her back with her head between her legs. Bunny had a frightened expression right before Hotrina dropped to her knees. She shot her down with a cradle belly-to-back piledriver. She kept ahold of the legs for the pin.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"And there you have it! These half-naked girls fought their hardest, and in the end, Hotrina managed to outsmart and outmaneuver her opponent!"
"No kidding. That's not to say that Bunny didn't put up a hell of a fight. There looked to be a kind of determination in her eyes, one that doesn't come from her fame."
After her victory, Hotrina kissed Bunny Bomber's forehead. "Looks like we both know who the better woman is. If you still haven't learned, stick around. I'm happy to show you up just like I do everyone else." She stood up and presented sexy poses to the crowd.
All the while, Bunny rolled out of the ring and grumbled angrily. "Damn it! I was close too! Well, I'm not giving up! I will get my payback!"
*Sam Hamilton vs Alex Duncan*
The first person to step up to the ring was Sam Hamilton, who dressed like an evil luchadora. She even had on a sinister expression. Next was Alex Duncan, who had on a superhero costume complete with the letters CF on the middle of her top. When she entered the ring, she locked eyes with Sam.
"So… they're pretending to be characters in a comic book."
"Correct. Alex's comic book to be exact. The author herself is playing her titular wrestling superheroine, Captain Fabulous, while Sam Hamilton is playing her archenemy, Dark Mask."
"So this is a make-believe fight?"
"Oh, no. Absolutely not. Sure, the story is made-up, but both Sam and Alex have assured me that they are going to give it their all in this match."
"Well, as long as the match gets exciting, let's see where this goes!"
DING-DING!
"So Captain Fabulous, we meet again." Sam said in character. She circled around the center of the ring with Alex who replied in turn.
"Surrender now, Dark Mask, and no one gets hurt."
"No one gets hurt? But that's half the fun. Case in point…"
Sam grabbed Alex by her head and judo flipped her over. While Alex was stunned by her surprise attack, Sam took the opportunity and flip her over before trapping her in a Boston crab. She stretched hard, but was quickly thrown off by Alex who turned to her back and pushed her off with her foot.
The two of them returned to their feet and faced each other again. Alex managed to grab Sam by her arm and Irish whip her to the ropes. When she bounced back, Alex jumped up and caught her between her legs. She flipped over backwards sending her down with a hurricarana. She then covered her.
1…
It proved to be too early to pin Sam. She kicked out, but Alex didn't slow down. She grabbed Sam by her arms to pull her up, but Sam sent a chop to her throat making her chough violently. She went to grab her, but was stopped when Alex grabbed her wrists and pushed for control. The two of them fought for control, but Sam surprised everyone by quickly overpowering Alex.
"What? This is impossible." Alex said with worry. "How are you this strong?"
"Oh. Didn't you hear?" Sam asked. "Well, I stopped by Kazuto's place and beat all his girls in a match. And you know, those who I beat, I take away their powers."
Alex widened her eyes. "What? No? So…"
"Yep. Iina, Louise, Kate, Kazahana, Cossette, Filo, and Nabe. All of them now strengthen me. And soon, you'll be next."
Sam fired a kick so hard, it knocked Alex off of her feet. Sam grabbed her and set her up for a piledriver before landind on her knees. She then picked her up and tossed her to the nearest corner. She then fired a series of martial arts strikes at the defenseless Alex who couldn't defend herself. Once she was done, she grabbed Alex's wrists, fell to her back, and flipped her over with her feet. That's when she pinned her.
1… 2…
Alex kicked out. Sam stopped her from getting up with a rear naked choke hold meant to keep her down.
"Stop fighting and just give up." Sam demanded. "You can't win."
"You're… wrong." Alex hissed back. "I am Captain Fabulous! And I fight for what is right! And I will not give in to a villain like you!" She grabbed Sam's arm and struggled to pry it off.
"Hey, let go!" Sam demanded trying to keep the arm on.
Alex managed to power up to her feet until she had enough leverage to hit Sam with an elbow strike. She hit her again making her let go. Once she was free, she quickly pulled Sam into a guillotine hold before dropping her into a DDT. She rolled her over for a pin.
1… 2…
Sam kicked out and rolled away to return to her feet. She turned her angry head toward Alex who glared back.
"That's it. You're going down." Sam said.
"Same goes for you." Alex retorted.
The two geeks ran after each other. Sam jumped up ready to deliver a double axe handle. Alex raised her arms to block it, but it turned out to be a feint. Sam's real attack was a dropkick that sent Sam stumbling backwards. She almost fell, but she kept her footing.
Sam ran forward to continue her assault, but Alex stopped her by grabbing her by her waist and flipping her in a belly to belly suplex. The suplex stung, but Sam still managed to send a punch to Alex's face and turn her around to apply a bodyscissor hold form behind. And if that wasn't enough, she pulled Alex's head back and locked her into a dragon sleeper hold. Alex was losing her grip on reality being stuck in that hold.
Even while trapped, Alex didn't give up. Instead, she used nearly all of her remaining strength to pick herself up by an inch. Sam tried to tighten the hold and keep her in place, but Alex proceeded to slowly get to the ropes. She made it just close enough to put her foot on the rope.
"Rope break!" the referee declared making Sam let go of her opponent angrily.
Sam grabbed Alex's head and dragged her to the center of the ring. She then went on to climb the nearest turnbuckle. She showed off to the crowd before leaping off. She pointed her elbow aiming it right at Alex's head. However, Alex managed to roll over just in time. Sam was utterly stunned by the impact.
After avoiding the attack, Alex headed to the apron and waited for Sam to stand back up. When she did, she jumped right through the top rope catching Sam by surprise. She delivered a punch to her nose followed by a knee to the side of her face. It was Alex's finishing move, the Dynamite and Megaton Blow. After Sam fell, Alex covered her for the pin.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"I can't believe it! For a roleplay match, it was very exciting!"
"I told you. Though the story is make-believe, the fight behind it was real! These two showed great pride in their fandom, so I'm sure we'll be a seeing lot more later."
After the match, Sam and Alex laughed together backstage removing their masks.
"Oh, that was amazing!" Sam said.
"I know! For a moment there, I thought we were the real Captain Fabulous and Dark Mask." Alex said. "These costumes are spot on, by the way. That tailor friend of yours is quite talented."
"Yeah, he is." Sam said reminding herself to thank Claude later. "Hopefully, you can stick around? You can promote your comic line more if you do."
"Maybe." Alex said. "Anyway, thanks for helping bring Captain Fabulous to life."
*Mantis vs Yuri Ora*
For this next match, the jumbotron showed an entirely different setting. Instead of a wrestling ring, there was a large, stone platform with various weapons at the perimeter. There were steel chairs, tables, ladders, kendo sticks, stop signs, and baseball bats. In the middle of the ring were two women. One was Mantis. The other was a Hardkor wrestler, a young looking girl with black, bowlcut hair. She wore nothing but a black martial arts gi and a black belt. She stared at Mantis with emotionless eyes.
"Here we are with another special match, one that features another member of the rising Hardkor organization. Her name is Yuri Ora, who spends her training time out in her travels rather than in the gym with the others. And her opponent is none other than Xtrema's most vicious martial artist, Mantis. Looks like quite a show, right, Ms. Rogue?"
"You bet, especially with this special match type. Since these women are both martial artists, we thought the most appropriate type of match would be a match from the World Martial Arts Tournament where the famous fighter, Hercule Satan, won in multiple years. To add in some more Hardkor elements, we have allowed the use of weapons, which are available around the ring. There are only three ways to win this match: by knockout, by ring out, or by submission. I can tell how eager Mantis is, so let's get this match going."
DING-DING!
Mantis grinned under her face cover. She quickly rushed to the side and pulled a kendo stick into the ring. "And what will you be using, Cobra Kai?"
"Nothing." Yuri said raising her bare fists.
"Huh? You mean you're not going to take advantage of the weapons?"
"My fists are more than adequate. After all, you wouldn't kill a fly with a missile, would you?"
Mantis growled at the disrespect and rushed forward. She swung her sword, but was quickly blocked by Yuri's wrist. The Hardkor martial artist then fired a palm strike at Mantis' hand making her let go. She then jumped up swinging for a kick. During the spin, Mantis noticed a strange black glow surrounding Yuri's foot. She didn't have much time to process though before she got sent backwards by the attack.
Already, Mantis was feeling sore and almost exhausted, but she wasn't about to give up. She stood up and faced Yuri. "Fine. You don't want to use weapons? That's fine. It'll be more fun to tear you to pieces!" Mantis jumped forward to fire a flying drop kick, but Yuri blocked it with her forearm.
Mantis was getting frustrated. She proceeded with a lightning-fast array of chops, kicks, and punches, but Yuri managed to dodge them all. The scariest part is that during all of the blocks, Yuri hasn't budged a single step or even looked at what she was blocking. She just kept her eyes fixed on Mantis who kept getting madder and madder.
Mantis leaped backward to gain some distance and catch her breath. She gritted her teeth in sheer anger towards Yuri Ora. In a blind fury, Mantis rushed forward to attack. However, she was stopped when Yuri extended her open hand jabbing Mantis hard in the chest. A rush filled up Mantis' body and she collapsed to her knees in front of Yuri. She somehow lost all will to fight.
"This… This is impossible." Mantis said. "No one can be this strong. She has to be cheating somehow."
Yuri grabbed Mantis' chin and held it up to make her look at her. "Listen, I respect your ferocity. However, I have orders from Yami to show no mercy. So I have no choice but to go all out on you until she is satisfied."
Mantis shivered in fear before Yuri balled up a fist. She threw her first punch which started the brutal one-sided beatdown.
For the next five minutes, Yuri went on a full assault on Mantis sending her around the ring with strong kicks and brutal punches. She sent Mantis to one corner of the ring only to get there first and kick her to another. She did so again and again until all four corners were struck from. Yuri sent one last kick to Mantis sending her back to he center of the ring.
Yuri picked Mantis up by her hair and tossed her up. When Mantis fell back down, she was met with an uppercut from Yuri. Yuri grabbed Mantis by her ankle and pulled her in only to strike her down with an elbow shot strong enough to make her leave a dent in the ring. Mantis knew she was basically a rag doll at this point.
Yuri looked up at Jessica Jacklyn, who smiled and gave her the thumbs up. That was Yuri's cue. She dragged Mantis to the edge of the ring and stood her up.
"Any last words?" Yuri asked.
"H-H-How…" Mantis asked weakly.
"I'll demonstrate." Yuri said dragging her bare feet so Mantis could see. Once again, she saw a black glow, but it emitted from the Hardkor martial artist's bare feet and it was darker than before.
Yuri dropped down to her back and fired both her feet at Mantis sending her flying out of the ring. It was enough force to send Mantis very high in the air, but Yuri wasn't done. She jumped up from the ring and hovered above Mantis. She readied her black, glowing feet again and delivered a strong dropkick down at Mantis. She dropped like a bullet and fell right into the ground. She impact was so hard, Mantis laid in the center of a crater half-dead.
DING-DING!
"That… That was… What the hell was that?!"
"I guess that's another one-sided victory for Hardkor. Nothing left to say other than Yuri Ora is the winner by ring out. Also, someone needs to get Mantis to the infirmary."
After defeating Mantis, Yuri headed backstage where Jessica Jacklyn waited for her with a proud smile.
"Well done, Yuri. Just got off the phone with Yami, and she says you were quite a powerhouse."
"She has my thanks." Yuri said before walking off.
"Where are you going?" Jessica asked.
"I already won my match. I'm no longer needed here. So I'm going to continue my training. You have my number if you find me another match." Yuri went on to continue her disappearance into the darkness leaving Jessica confused.
"I can never read that girl."
*Xtrema Shorts*
The crowd welcomed not only Chibi Monica Everly, but also Chibi Poison. They sat aside from each other.
"Hello, everyone, to Xtrema Shorts. I'm your host, Monica Everly, and today, we have a special guest from the world of Street Fighter and Final Fight, Poison! Thanks for coming back, Poison."
"Glad to be back." Chibi Poison said. "Just happy I no longer have to be saddled with that ogress, Diaz."
"Well, it's great to see you moved on. Now, onto the questions. We have general questions that we ask everyone followed by personal questions asked by our readers. You ready?"
"Give me the questions."
"Okay then. First question… Who was your debut opponent?
"Well, if you had read, I was in a battle royal against other newcomers, such as Zelda Logan, Jasper Jones, Sam Hamilton, Platinum Mask, and Clover. I had the brilliant strategy to hide myself until I only had one exhausted opponent to deal with. I would have won too if it hadn't been for Platinum Mask's refusal to lose. I swear, that woman is like a tank. No wonder Eris got her on her side."
"What's it like facing Kaito?"
"You mean that wimp? I'm not going to dignify that with a response."
"What do you think of Sayuri Rogue?"
"She's cool, I guess. Still, she's a bit of a stick in the mud, which is why I enjoyed making her mad with Diaz."
"Who's the easiest opponent you've ever faced other than Kaito?"
"You mean in Xtrema or in my life. In Xtrema, I liked how Diaz and I squashed those girls from Team Spirit. Before all that however, back when my wrestling promotion was having hard times, I thought I'd excite the crowd by taking on two of my men at once. They were basically paper people, which disgusted me."
"All right then. Onto the personal questions by Awesome ax10. Who are you currently targeting to manage now?"
"That's a good question. I know there are some ruthless members of Xtrema I can work with. Maybe N-Bomb, or perhaps Liza Surkova. Or perhaps I can wait until we get our next batch of newcomers. Lord knows that after Xtrema Against the World, we're going to have a bunch of sign-ups."
"Do you plan on staying in Xtrema for long?
"That's the plan. I have a long-term contract back when I thought Diaz and Poison were a permanent thing. Sure enough, I was mistaken, but I plan to take full advantage of my contract, especially now I don't have to deal with Diaz anymore."
"Is Hardkor a potential new pasture for you since Roxy is there?"
"Perhaps. Roxy and I go way back, so I'll take her word for it if she said that I would fit in there. Still, the ladies there give me goosebumps, and not the good kind. Right now, I'm still on the fence. I might join if I can't get a good partner."
"All right then. Thank you for your time, Poison. And as for you, readers, if anyone has a question to ask don't hesitate to. Any and all comments are welcome."
