Entry #24

(watch?v=R59-C6fZNvU)

The fast pace strumming from the electric guitar and the melody coming from the keyboard had the audience pumped up for the next female to make her entrance. The lights blinked on and off to the tempo of the music. The energy level has rose dramatically, thanks to the active beat of the entrance music. A handful of fans who recognized the twenty-fourth's entrance song were hopping on their toes and were getting pumped up.

Moments later, a twenty-one year old Spanish woman with slightly freckled skin and brown eyes appeared and bounced up and down on the stage. Her hair has been cut into a spiky crop, just reaching past her shoulders. The color is a subtle mix of dark red and black; most likely dyed due to having medium brown eyebrows. She appeared to be skinnier to the other female brawlers with smaller hips. On the other hand, she was less busty than the other female fighters.

The twenty-fourth entrant wore a red tank top with words 'VICTORIA' written on the chest area. The young woman also wore black shorts that just reaches her thighs. It had white lining, black stars at the ends and a bee on the lower left side. The Spanish woman also had black fighting gloves. Regardless of the padding they provide, she could still knock out some teeth if she were to connect a hard punch or two. Finally, she had black straps wrapped around the feet and ankles.

She pounded her fists together before dashing toward the ring.

"Another fighter from the Dead or Alive universe! It's the young and upcoming Mila, entering at #24!"

"If you remember earlier, one of Mila's inspirations and partners, Tina Armstrong, has already been eliminated earlier on! Now, it's time to see what this promising, young fighter has got!"

"Mila is an accomplished fighter in the MMA, scoring victories around the world! She currently trains in New York, while working at a part time job as a waitress! After sparring a bit with Tina Armstrong, she was invited to partake in the fifth Dead or Alive tournament! Even though she lost in the quarterfinals, her presence and abilities has captured the attention of the world!"

"Here's a fun fact, Al! The one who defeated Mila in the last tournament is in the ring right now! Hehe, that's right! It was Hitomi, the fifteenth entrant! Don't be surprised if Mila decides to go after the one who knocked her out of the last DOA tournament!"

"We'll find out soon enough, partner! Mila is determined to make her mark in this competition! And with her entering at #24, she currently has the best chances of winning the Ryona Rumble!"

The overly excited Mila entered the ring and was ready to go. The first competitor to greet her was the Delta Red officer. Cammy rotated her body and went for a spinning crescent kick to knock the freshest entrant to the ground. But Mila ducked underneath the blonde's leg and dashed toward Chun-li. The Chinese woman countered with a spinning heel kick to the freshest entrant's face.

The Spanish woman again underneath Chun-li's legs and bounced off of the side ropes. When the Interpol officer turned around, Mila had already started her attack. She began her technique by bringing her rear leg forward, seemingly going for a front kick to her opponent's midsection. Chun-li immediately reacted by placing her arms in front her body to avoid the strike. Too bad she had already fell into Mila's feigns. By snapping her kicking leg back while throwing a right handed cross at the same time, the result was an increase power behind her punch. Her fist connected against the Chinese woman's jaw. That made Chun-li fall to the ground like a ton of bricks.

"SUPERMAN PUNCH! WHAT POWER BEHIND THAT RIGHT HAND! MILA JUST JACKED THE JAW OF ONE OF THE STRONGEST FEMALE FIGHTERS IN THE WORLD!"

"I'm excited as you are, Ray! This is where raw potential of Mila beats experience of Chun-li! The world's strongest woman just... got... dropped!"

Half of the audience were in shock to see one of their favorite competitors go down so easily by a single punch. But then again, the other half were thrilled to see this MMA fighter making a huge impact. They began to cheer loudly, continuing to show the young woman their support. Mila took a moment to gaze at the crowd. She was at a loss for words. This is exactly what she felt when she first entered her first Dead or Alive tournament. Mila wished this feeling could last for a long tim...

"KYAH!"

Cammy blindside the Spanish woman with clubbing blow to her spine. The Delta Red soldier followed up the assault with more elbows to her opponent's temple. Even though it's every woman for herself, the look in her eyes told Mila that she was not happy the way she the way this twenty-one year old woman had knocked out her partner. Each elbow strike was even harder than the last.

Next, the Delta Red soldier Irish Whipped her opponent toward the other side of the ring. When Mila bounded off of the ropes, Cammy got in position to unleash another powerful kick. She threw her leg toward the young woman, looking to connect with a Cannon Spike. But thanks to her experience in competing in the MMA, the Spanish fighter caught Cammy's leg, which made the fall on her back.

Mila quickly took advantage by getting on top of the blonde in a mount position, trapping Cammy's arms with her legs so she could not fight back. Finally, the twenty-fourth entrant unleashed a flurry of punches to the British woman's exposed head. Powerful hooks connected against the defenseless jaw and cheeks of Cammy. As much as she wanted to protect her head, Mila's legs and hard punches prevented her to do so.

"How do you like that? Mila has only been in the ring for less than a minute! And yet, she has already took out the likes of Chun-li and Cammy at once! Most impressive!"

"Mila is fearless! You can tell by the way trains, and the way she expresses her emotions during competitions! Let's hope that she doesn't get too overly-excited because it will cost her the match!"

The Spanish woman's sixth punch was the one that knocked Cammy out cold. She got off of the blonde, so she could eliminate her from the competition. Too bad Mila never got the chance to do so. From behind, Reiko Hinomoto appeared and wrapped her arms around the twenty-fourth entrant's waist. She then arched back, looking to form a German suplex on her opponent. Despite the amount of abuse she took since she was in the match, Reiko had enough strength to hoist Mila upward.

But the fresh entrant countered Hinomoto's throw by rolling with the momentum so she could land on her feet. Upon completing the landing, she did a double-leg takedown on the Zero Fighter. Like she did with Cammy, Mila delivered another flurry hooks and punches to Reiko's face. The Japanese wrestler put her arms up to protect herself. But the Spanish fighter kept striking the areas that Hinomoto wasn't protecting. Each hit to her beautiful face would knock Reiko in a daze.

Next, Mila flipped on her back so that her opponent was on top. It's a good thing the Zero Fighter was still groggy after all of those hits she took to the head. She had no idea what the MMA fighter had in store for her. First, Mila took hold of her opponent's wrist and pull her arm out away from you to the side. She then slid her leg under and over Reiko's partially outstretched arm and angled her leg so the side of the Japanese wrestler's neck is pressed against your hamstrings. Mila then rose her other leg up and placed it over her angled leg in a figure four shape.

Reiko's head and right arm was trapped in between the MMA fighter's legs. With no leverage on her side, the Zero Fighter could escape the Triangle Choke. Even with her left arm aimlessly swinging all over the place, it did nothing to loosen the potentially lethal hold. She could feel her strength depleting. Obviously, there were no submissions in the Ryona Rumble match. But despite her toughness, even Reiko couldn't endure the chokehold much longer.

But the Zero Fighter's suffering has only begun. She felt someone grabbing both her legs. Nina Williams stepped over with her left leg and crossed Reiko's right leg over her left. The Irish woman then lean back and pulled as hard as she could, ruthlessly applying more pressure on the sharpshooter. Mila could see the blonde applying a second submission hold on Hinomoto. But she remained on her back and continued to choke out her opponent.

By now, Reiko was tapping the mat furiously. The pain to her back and legs were unbearable. Any longer and she could potentially suffer permanent damage to her spine. Not only that, but she was also on the receiving end of one of the most dangerous submission holds of all time. With Mila compressing her neck, Reiko could feel her consciousness slipping away. Despite her muffled moans and taps on the mat, neither of her opponents showed any mercy by releasing their holds.

"That's gotta hurt, Al! Reiko cannot last much longer! The Sharpshooter and Triangle Choke are two of the most lethal holds in history!"

"You can see the Zero Fighter tapping furiously on canvas! Again, there are no submissions in this match! However, this is a perfect strategy to wear down someone who poses as a legitimate threat to win the Ryona Rumble match!"

"It's about wearing down your opponent so you can eliminate them! It's only a matter of time before Reiko's run comes to an end!"

While Mila and Nina Williams continued to make Hinomoto's life miserable, Michelle Chang was back on her feet. She decided to go after Sakura Hagiwara, who was still lying flat on her face after the double team move she took from Cammy and Chun-li. The sixteenth entrant had a hard time getting the seventeen year old girl on her feet. When she did get her on to a vertical base, Sakura would collapse to the mat again in an unconscious state.

This time, Michelle helped the groggy teenager to her knees position. The forty year old woman then wrapped her arms around Sakura's waists before lifting her opponent up so that her stomach was lying on her shoulders. The sixteenth entrant then casually walked backwards toward the ring ropes. With Hagiwara out like a light, Michelle Chang should have no problems eliminating the competitor who has been in the ring for almost fifty minutes.

But just before the sixteenth entrant could reach the ropes, Sakura reacted on instincts and reached out, grabbing the top ropes with both of her hands. This was enough to save herself from elimination. Michelle Chang tried to hoist her opponent over the top rope, but Hagiwara would not go. She held on to the cable like her entire life and career depended on it. Half of the crowd were rooting for Michelle to eliminate the next competitor, while the other half were cheering for Sakura to hang on.

Realizing that this wasn't getting anywhere, Michelle Chang made her made back to the center of the ring. If there was still much fight left in Hagiwara, then she needed to inflect more damage to get her out of the ring. The forty year old competitor first dropped down to her knees, forcing her opponent's stomach to impact her shoulder. The gutbuster drop made cough for air, thus further damaging her injured ribs.

By then, Michelle's daughter was already there to join her mother to complete another double team move. With Sakura's midsection still on the sixteenth entrant's shoulders, Jaycee went around the back and wrapped her right arm around Hagiwara's head in a front face look. Michelle Chang gave her partner the signal before the pair dropped down to the mat, driving the Japanese wrestler's head and stomach into the canvas. The Delayed Flapjack/Elevated DDT got the audience excited once again.

"Oh my Lord! What a tag team move on Sakura Hagiwara!"

"That's the Snapshot, Ray! Years ago, the tag team of MNM from WWE made used that same move to finish off their opponents and become decorated Tag Team Champions! A very effective and devastating maneuver indeed!"

The last double team move has left Hagiwara unconscious. She was flat on her face with her arms and legs spread out wide. Now that she was out cold, Jaycee and Michelle Chang glanced toward one another and agreed that now would be a good time to eliminate the teenage idol. They both grabbed one of Sakura's arms and helped her to her feet. The mother-daughter pair then moved toward the ropes, ready to eliminate the seventeen year old girl.

"WE WANT MORE! WE WANT MORE!" chanted crowd, aiming their cries toward Jaycee and Michelle.

The fourteenth and sixteenth entrant came to a halt the moment they heard the audience screaming at them. Apparently, they wanted them to some more double team moves on Sakura, despite the shape she's in. Michelle and Jaycee felt a twinge of guilt for the teenage idol. She had already been on the receiving end of some of the most hellacious beatdowns. One more devastating double team move and she could be sent to the hospital on a stretcher.

Sadly, Jaycee and Michelle could not ignore the pleads and demands of the sellout crowd.

The masked luchadora started off the combination by putting her head in between Hagiwara's legs. She then used her strength to lift the on her shoulders, setting her up in an electric chair position. Meanwhile, Michelle Chang took a few steps back. The moment she saw Jaycee falling backwards, the forty year old competitor dashed in and wrapped her arms around Sakura's head, falling along with her daughter. The ring bounced when all three wrestlers hit the canvas, with the Japanese teenager taking the worst of the fall. The Electric Chair Drop/Reverse Neckbreaker combination was precisely what the audience had wanted.

"ONE MORE TIME! ONE MORE TIME!" Again, the people chanted.

By then, Jaycee and Michelle Chang had cared less about eliminating their opponent. They were now focusing their attention on other ways to please the crowd. After all, they had received such an ovation by executing unique and devastating double team moves. The mother-daughter team had already had more destructive and combinations in mind and ready to execute. Although the fourteenth and sixteenth entrant felt bad that all of this will be at poor Sakura's expense, the crowd paid good money to see this kind of stuff.

Michelle helped the young wrestler to her feet before delivering a front kick to her ribs, forcing Hagiwara to bend over. With both of her arms around the Japanese teen's waist, the forty year old woman hoisted her opponent up so Sakura's back was resting on her shoulder, with the Hagiwara's head pointing in the direction that the Michelle was facing is facing. As the sixteenth entrant kept the helpless teen in place, Jaycee picked up some momentum by bouncing off of the ropes. When she met her mother on the rebound, the masked wrestler grabbed Sakura face in a three-quarter facelock and dropped to the mat. At the same time, Michelle Chang dropped to a seated position and threw her opponent down to the canvas. Everyone in the arena felt the hard impact of the Inverted Sitout Side Slam/Running Cutter combination.

But the impact of the last double team move left poor Sakura flat on her stomach and nonresponsive.

"Man! Talk about huge! I've never seen a combination like that before!"

"I believe that's the Thunder Express! That's one of the Motor City Machine Guns signature tag team moves!"

"Sakura Hagiwara's out like a light after that! But then again, that's what happens when you're on the receiving end on three double team moves in a row!"

Now that the teenage idol was knocked out, the fourteenth and sixteenth entrant can now eliminate the Japanese wrestler with no problem. But before either Jaycee or Michelle Chang could help Hagiwara off of the canvas, another competitor came from the masked wrestler's side and barraged her with hard forearms to the face. The Delta Red soldier was back in the fight, using her strikes to get her opponent stumbling toward the ropes.

When Michelle Chang noticed that her daughter was in trouble, she threw the unconscious Japanese girl to the ground and made her way toward the twelfth entrant. The forty year old veteran grabbed Cammy by her pigtails to get her off of Jaycee. After the luchadora shook the grogginess out of her head, she went back on the attack, barraging the British woman with her own punches and kicks.

Next, Jaycee grabbed one of Cammy's legs in attempt to hoist her over the top rope. Michelle also helped out by trying to lift the Delta Red officer's other leg off of the ground. In order to save herself from being eliminated, Cammy wrapped her arms around the ropes and held on tight. Things got intense when the mother-daughter pair had the British woman's body parallel to the canvas. The audience were on their feet, anxiously waiting if they're bound to see another elimination.

Speaking of which, the Glamazon had returned to a standing position and also had eliminating another competitor in mind. The closest woman to her was the unresponsive Chun-li. By using her raw strength, Beth Phoenix yanked the Interpol agent back to her feet and shoved her to a nearby turnbuckle. The sixth entrant then grabbed Chun-li's thigh and tried to lift her opponent out of the ring.

When the Chinese woman regained consciousness, she immediately noticed that someone was trying to throw her over the top rope. She tried to fight back by throwing double axe hammers on the Glamazon's back. But sadly, Chun-li's comeback was cut short when Gail Kim delivered a running dropkick to the Interpol agent's head. The Korean wrestler then assisted the WWE Diva by grabbing Chun-li's other leg. The eleventh and twelfth entrant pushed as hard as they could, trying to get the Chinese woman out of the ring.

"Look at this, Al! Are we about to have another elimination? Because Chun-li and Cammy are literally hanging on as tight as they can!"

"It's going to be close! Chun-li's got her hands full trying to fight off Beth Phoenix and Gail Kim! On the other side of the ring, Cammy very close on being eliminated! If Jaycee and Michelle Chang can get that final push, then Cammy will be the next one to leave!"

Meanwhile, Poison was already getting bored using her riding crop on Hitomi's neck. The pink haired woman stood up and gazed at the young brunette, who was coughing her lungs out. The twenty-first entrant again had that huge smirk on her face. She threw her arms up in the air to show off in front of the crowd. Instead, the audience rained loud jeers and boos. But Poison didn't care if the people detested her. Her smug grin remained on her face.

The twenty-first entrant then picked Hitomi off of the ground and lifted her on her shoulders. Poison then dashed toward the ropes, ready to throw the twenty year fighter out of the ring. But before she reached the edge of the squared circle, Hitomi quickly got off of Poison's shoulder, turned her opponent around and barraged her opponent with punches, hooks, uppercuts and knees. The fifteenth entrant targeted Poison's head and midsection. The power in each strike represented retaliation after the humiliation she had endured, thanks to this woman.

Poison tried to defend herself by covering her head and her body with her arms. But Hitomi's punches, kicks and knees had a lot of impact in them. The transfer of energy to Poison's arms was too much. The pink haired woman dropped her defenses when the bruises on her forearms were too much. That gave Hitomi the opening she wanted. With nothing stopping her, the brunette continued the assault, plastering Poison with devastating blows.

The fifteenth entrant gave the pink haired woman a big uppercut, which knocked the twenty-first entrant flat on her butt. Hitomi then shot a quick glance at the titantron. Once again, the countdown has begun for the twenty-fifth entrant's arrival. The audience screamed and cheered as the numbers approached zero. The ring is already filled with the world's best and strongest fighters. The crowd can only wonder who's coming down that ramp, and if she can make a big impact to the match.
