Dirty Dancing

Author's note: I kind of lost interest with this chapter, but I decided to finish it to see just how well I can choreograph a battle. Don't expect much of the witty dialogue I usually have. Please review and tell me how well the fight is portrayed.

You might remember last time how our heroes all went their separate ways. Well, it doesn't really matter because this time it's a whole different cast in a different local. So if you don't remember the last story, then don't worry.

It was a dark and stormy night. Or maybe the skies are clears. Actually I don't know because I'm inside and frankly, I don't give a damn. Actually right now we're in a dank, dark boxing arena in a rather unsavory neighborhood in Echidnaopolis, on the floating island. The arena was packed so tight that there wasn't even any standing room left. Tonight was the biggest underground fight of the year. Its none other than the 'Echidnaopolis Underground Female Tag-Team Anything Goes Fight Tournament' or the E.U.F.T.T.A.G.F.T. The crowd was rowdy in anticipation for the fight.

As the clock struck 7:00 the lights dimmed and a spotlight flowed across the audience. Suddenly the announcer could be heard over the loudspeaker.

"Welcome everyone to today's fighting tournament. I'm Taro Yamada, today's special guest announcer. Joining me is my good friend, Hiroko"

"Fortunately, You didn't come here to listen to us run our mouths. So get ready for our first fighting team."

The spotlight settled on the entrance at the end of the runway leading to the ring

"Ladies and horn-dogs, please welcome the away team and our first fighters. They're trouble consultants for the 3WA and have the codename 'Lovely Angels', but are better known as the Dirty Pair!"

Kei and Yuri walked out towards the ring as 'Ru-Ru-Ru-Russian Roulette' played. The crowd was not happy. After all they wanted to see their hometown heroes, not some foreigners. They booed as Yuri flipped them the bird.

"And now folks" said Taro, "the pair you've all been waiting for. They fight for freedom and the right to bare skin. Its Julie-Su and her time-traveling daughter Lara-Su!"

With this the mostly Echidna crowd erupted in cheers as the mother/daughter pair ran down the aisle and somersaulted into the ring in unison.

Now it might confuse some readers as to Lara-Su's presence, since she is from the future. Well if Sailor moon's daughter can time-travel without the history changing paradoxes, then so can Lara-Su.

Now that that's out of the way lets return to the fight.

"Ok, girls, "said the referee," I want a clean fight…"

"Get lost!" yelled a voice from the crowd.

"…with no illegal moves. Now send your partner out of the ring and go to you're corner."

Yuri and Lara-Su left the ring while Kei and Juli-Su moved to the corners of the ring. A moment later the bell sounded and the announcer yelled 'FIGHT!'

Kei lunged at JS in an attempt to grapple her. As she grabbed her Julie slid down and between Kei's legs. As she stumbled forward Julie spun around and swept her leg across Kei's ankles, causing the already off-balance trouble consultant to fall over. Julie jumped up and tried to land on Kei, but she rolled out of the way just in time, and JS fell on the empty mat with a resounding 'Splat'. Kei spun on the mat and grabbed Juli's leg, twisting it back.

"Give up!"

"Never!"

Julie reached out and just barely managed to tag her daughter. Kei let go and rolled out of the ring as Lara vaulted over the ropes, landing a foot right in Kei's face, knocking her back. She was able to roll over backwards and recover. She followed up with a left roundhouse which Lara blocked. She grabbed her outstretched leg and countered with three strait jabs, causing Kei to go over and land on the ropes. She tagged out as a hard right landed on her jaw, causing her to become disoriented. Yuri jumped into the ring as Kei fell out.

"Well folks, "said Taro," it looks like this fight is in full swing. After only two and a half minutes in the fighters have used dozens of intense moves"

"Yes, "agreed Hiroko, " this is what a real fight looks like. Our competitors are giving it all, but it looks like Kei won't make it past this round."

"This could mean trouble for the Dirty Pair."

Lara-Su rushed Yuri, but she sidestepped and landed a high kick to her back. Lara bounced off the ropes and into Yuri's outstretched arm, which Caused her to rebound off the mat. Yuri climbed onto the prone echidna, rolled over, grabbed her ankles, and pulled her outstretched legs over her head.

Now Lara was on top of Yuri. Her legs were stretched out and everyone could see her groin very well. Cheers and whoops came from the audience, along with several wolf whistles and quite a few camera flashes.

"Damn, this is embarrassing." Thought the exposed echidna. "AAUGH! And painful, too! Time to turn this around."

Lara flipped over backwards, causing Yuri to loose her grip on the echidna's sweaty fur. Yuri rolled away from Lara and got to her feet just as Lara did the same. They starred at each other for a moment before they both charged. Lara gave Yuri a strong right roundhouse to her side, but Yuri had seen it coming and countered with a right snap-kick right between her legs. Being off-balance as she was the roundhouse threw Yuri across the ring instead of breaking her ribs. She decided to tag out anyways. Lara hadn't fared so well. That kick was the second shot at her lower region today, and it landed hard. So hard, in fact that its upward force had caused her feet to leave the ground. It almost made her throw up. She rolled around and out of the ring as she tagged her mother.

"Damn…I hope…that… doesn't…bruise." Was all that Lara-Su could manage to get out over the excruciating pain.

Now it was Juli-Su vs. Yuri. After seeing her daughter take that shot she wasn't about to go easy. She pulled out every move that she had. Yuri gave a left strait jab. But Lara moved left so that the punch missed. She immediately grabbed the outstretched arm, pulled Yuri past her, and spun her left leg around, giving her a hard kick to the upper back. This was all that LS needed. Yuri stumbled to the ground but rolled over and started to get up

"Haya! Got you now, bitch!" Yelled Juli as she gave Yuri (who was still on her knees) a snap-kick to the chin, causing the human to go flying over backwards. As a disoriented Yuri laid on the mat Lara climbed on the corner post and launched herself into the air, spinning her body as she did so. She landed a kick right to the solar plexus. Yuri let out a resounding 'OOF' and grabbed her mid-section. Lara immediately ran to the opposite end of the ring and started to cartwheel towards the wheezing girl.

"See Ya!" yelled Lara as her heel came around and landed on Yuri. In doing so she landed a perfect split.

"Yuri is out!" Yelled the referee. Kei climbed in as the medics hauled off her partner.

"Don't worry, partner," called out Kei, "I will avenge you!"

"She's not dead, you kn.." Juli was cut off by a foot that had almost magically appeared against her stomach.

"When…did…you…"

She could pearly speak. Suddenly a barrage of punches landed on her face. Kei was moving faster. She had gotten her second wind.

Lara stood there for a second, disoriented and a little dizzy.

"Her comes the good part," thought Kei, "embarrassment city."

"Hey, look over there!" Said Kei, pointing to somewhere behind Julie-Su. She turned her head to see what she was pointing at.

"Gotchya!" yelled Kei as she landed a hard right on her face. Juli stumbled back and out of her stupor. Unfortunately she was feeling quite weak, and it showed in her legs. Kei noticed.

"This is for my partner!"

Kei grabbed Lara, spun her around, and put her arms around her as if she was going to put he into a full nelson. Instead she grabbed a hold of the purple echidna's tattered tank top and tore it off! Julie's hair stood on end and her face turned Ferrari red as she slapped the humans hands away. The crowd erupted yet again. Juli instinctively covered her boobs and spun around to face her nemesis , at which point Kei gave her the world's loudest bitch slap.

Now that she was thoroughly embarrassed Kei moved in for the kill. She gave her punch after punch. The topless echidna tried to block but she was way too weak for it to be effective. Now juli-Su could barely stand. Kei ran to the opposite end of the ring, bounced of the ropes, and shot towards the wavering pile of fur at the other end.

"ITS NO USE!" She yelled to Juli as she launched herself into the air and landed a flying roundhouse to the echidna's chest. Juli flew backwards against the rope and collapsed.

"Juli-Su is out!" yelled the ref as she too was removed by the medics. As she was the bell rang.

The 15 minute round was up.

The remaining fighters took a moment to hydrate and rest, but after a minute they were back in the ring.

Now it was just Kei and Lara-Su.

"Don't think ripping my shirt off will distract me," said Lara-Su, "cause it won't."

"Not ashamed of our womanhood, are we." Replied Kei.

"Hardly. I'd fight buck-naked if I had too."

"Do you think you've got a chance of wining?" Asked Kei.

"Hell, even if I lose, If I can manage to bitch-slap you, It'll be a victory in my book."

"Well, you'd better start praying, cause it's the only victory you've got a chance at today!"

DING!

With that the second round was underway.

The two came at each other with their fists raised. Kei managed the first hit, a strait jab to Lara's nose, which started to bleed. Lara landed a right to her jaw but Kei held on to Lara to prevent her from putting any distance between them. Lara needed this distance so she gave her a nice head-butt to the nose, causing her to let go (one has to wonder why they even have a referee if there are no illegal moves). Lara stepped back and let out her triple kick special. First was a right to the gut, then she spun around halfway and gave her a left to the chest, then she spun around completely, switched feet, and used the momentum to give Kei an extremely powerful kick to the solar plexus. So powerful that it threw her across the ring. Kei hit the deck and ended up in the corner. Lara grabbed the ropes for balance and gave the girl several ground stomps before being pulled off by the ref (I knew he had a purpose).

Kei pulled herself to her feet and managed to regain her composure while her furry competitor argued with the referee.

Lara had turned her back on Kei, so she had time to set herself up for a powerful move. She ran up to Lara, planted her feet, and kicked Lara in the back. Fortunately Lara started to turn, so the kick only grazed her. She managed a right punch before Lara got her head back in the game. She blocked the next one but Kei landed two more to her gut. Lara backed away and bounced off the ropes. Kei misjudged her speed and punched too soon. Her fist found nothing but air. Lara grabbed that outstretched arm and pulled Kei towards her as she punched her in the gut. Lara held on to kei as she let off a barrage of rights.

At this point it was all over. Kei could barely stand. She was stumbling around. As much as Lara wanted to embarrass her it just wasn't practical. She would have to be content with just smashing her face in. Lara grabbed her shoulder and gave her three lefts to the face and one to the gut.

The crowd was chanting 'FINISH HER! FINISH HER!'. Lara-Su obliged. She grabbed Kei's head and slammed it down on her upcoming knee. The last lovely angel went flying over backwards as blood spurted from her nose. She landed on the mat, unconscious.

"Team Echidna wins!" Yelled the Referee.

"Woo-Hoo!" yelled Lara-Su as she pranced around the ring, striking poses and doing cartwheels.

"Take that, lovely angels!" yelled LS.

With that she was presented with the championship belt.

"Well that was an amazing fight, don't you think so." Said Taro.

"Yes it was… uh, Taro?"

"Yes?"

"I just realized that this entire time we've been broadcasting, we forgot to turn on the microphones."

"Oops"
