Queen Bee graced the stage ready to take on her opponent. She marched over to the ring and entered with a confident smile on her face. She raised her arms and flexed them for the world to bask at. She then awaited for her opponent.
Artemis Creed did some shadow boxing while she was on the stage. This slim, but fit, tanned woman had her brown hair tied into a ponytail. She wore a red sports bra with black outlines, black shorts with red stripes, and red gloves with black outlines. She continued striking the air at lightning speed until she got to the ring. She climbed up and entered the ring raising her fists into the air.
"Now, this is a real battle of the titans here! Queen Bee, a former indie wrestler from America, will represent Berserk while her opponent will represent Miyabi. Artemis Creed was a former boxing champion from Puerto Rico until Jackal Tojo defeated her in a boxing vs wrestling match. Now, Artemis has joined the world of wrestling to hopefully have a rematch against the World Champ. But first, she has to face against the Queen of Pro Wrestling."
"Boxing?" Queen Bee thought to herself. "Well, that takes me back to that one time I tried a boxing gig. True, I did go down easily, but thankfully, this is a wrestling match. I am the one with the advantage here. I just need to hit her with my best."
DING-DING!
Artemis raised her fist like any good boxer and Queen Bee smirked at that. The wrestler ran right at her to land a clothesline. However, the boxer caught her by surprise by lowering herself and launching an uppercut straight at Queen Bee's stomach. Queen Bee gasped out a loud breath as she felt her air blast out of her body. She stumbled back which gave Artemis the opportunity she needed. She shot a couple of jabs at Queen Bee's face before hitting her a right cross hard enough to send her down to the mat. Knowing that this was a wrestling match, Artemis hooked Queen Bee's leg for the early pin.
1… 2…
Queen Bee kicked out, but she was clearly surprised how the referee counted to 2 this early in the match. She got up to face Artemis. The boxer ran at her with another cross, but this time, Queen Bee grabbed her arm and spun her around. She then locked a full nelson on her. Artemis struggled, but Queen Bee held her tight.
"Not so tough when you can't punch, are you?" Queen Bee taunted.
Artemis grunted. "It's no picnic. But then again, this is a wrestling match, not a boxing match. Which means I can do this!" She stomped on Queen Bee's foot and made her loosen her hold. She then pried her arm free and elbowed her opponent in the gut. Once she was completely free, she sent a swift hook across Queen Bee's face making her spin and lean on the rope.
Queen Bee was getting a little upset over being at a disadvantage in this match. She turned to Artemis and stayed on the ropes ready for her. The Puerto Rican charged at her with a big punch ready, but Queen Bee sidestepped out of the way letting her bounce off the ropes. Queen Bee took advantage of this and quickly put Artemis Creed in a headlock. She then immediately followed with a bulldog.
Queen Bee rolled Artemis Creed onto her back and trapped her in a cross armbar. She was working on making Artemis' arms unusuable. Artemis used her free hand to bash at Queen Bee's legs. Sure, it did damage to the Queen, but she was determined. She kept pulling until Artemis yelled out in pain.
"Creed, do you give up?" the referee asked.
"NO!" Artemis yelled out.
Queen Bee pulled her opponent's arm some more making her yell again. Artemis gritted her teeth as she began using her power in her hips. With great difficulty, the Puerto Rican boxer powered into a sitting position while the armbar was still locked in. She leaned herself down on Queen Bee pressing her shoulders on the mat.
1… 2…
Realizing the referee's count, Queen Bee released Artemis Creed and pushed her off of her. As she stood up, Artemis also stood up feeling her sore arm.
"Damn. I'm going to have to give this thing a bit of rest." Artemis thought to herself. "That means I'll have to continue this match with only one hand. It won't be easy, especially against this girl."
Queen Bee ran to Artemis and tried to go after her sore arm, but the boxer used her free fist to backhand her away. Queen Bee grabbed that arm and threw herself backwards with Artemis on top. She wrapped her legs around Artemis' head and arm in a triangle choke. Once again, Artemis gritted her teeth. This time, though, she wasted no time in trying to get Queen Bee's shoulders on the mat.
1… 2…
Queen Bee let go and pushed her away again. She got back up and decided to end this match. Before Artemis could prepare, Queen Bee ran right at her. She swung her leg and struck her hard with the Queen's Sting. Artemis fell before Queen Bee covered her.
1… 2… Thre…
Much to everyone's surprise, Artemis got her shoulders up. Queen Bee was the most surprised considering how no one ever kicked out after her finisher. Out of frustration, Queen Bee turned Artemis around and put her in a surfboard stretch. She pulled the boxer's arms way back making her grit her teeth trying not to yell.
"Creed, give up?" the referee asked again.
Like before, Artemis refused to surrender. Even with her sore arm, she used a lot of muscle power in her arms. Queen Bee tried to keep hold, but Artemis managed to power her arms back forward pulling the American close enough for a reverse headbutt. Artemis slammed the back of her head to Queen Bee's face making her let go.
Once she was free, Artemis stood back up and laid herself on Queen Bee's body in a boxer's clinch. Queen Bee was about to push her off, but Artemis stopped her with a few stunning jabs to her ribs. Queen Bee broke free from the clinch, but she was vulnerable to what came next.
Artemis Creed raised her fists and sent a seemingly endless amount of jabs, hooks, and crosses fast as lightning right at Queen Bee. The American was helpless to defend against every strike at her head, chest, and stomach. The fans were at the edge of their seats seeing this display.
Artemis Creed tapped both her fists together before throwing one last right hook. Thankfully, Queen Bee saw it coming and ducked down. Artemis couldn't stop her momentum and turned herself around. Queen Bee saw her chance and grabbed her from behind. She then launched her backwards in a German suplex. The impact echoed throughout the room. Queen Bee hooked Artemis' leg to the mat.
1… 2… Thre…
Once again, Artemis kicked out at the very last nanosecond making Queen Bee very frustrated. Tired and exhausted, Queen Bee creeped to the corner post. She slowly climbed up to the top turnbuckle before turning to Artemis.
"Even you won't kick out after this." Queen Bee said before jumping off. She readied her elbow to slam down, but in her long path to the corner, she gave Artemis enough time to recover. The boxer shot herself back up and surprised Queen Bee with a fist aimed right at her stomach.
After the punch made impact, Queen Bee sprawled on the mat covering her stomach. She struggled so much with trying to breathe and trying not to throw up at the same time. Sadly, Artemis didn't give her enough time to. She forced Queen Bee up to her feet and propped her up. She then spun her right fist around until she launched it upward. It made impact with Queen Bee's head and the uppercut sent her flying across the ring and landing on her back. Artemis slowly made her way to Queen Bee and covered her.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"WHAT A MATCH! Both naturals in their fields gave it their all! Queen Bee's raw strength against Artemis Creed's powerful speed made a spectacular match! In the end, Queen Bee fell to
Artemis Creed's boxing skills! That ties up the two gyms once again!"
Artemis didn't bother getting up. She stayed there until the referee and ringside officials helped her and Queen Bee out of the ring.
SCORE:
Berserk—2
Miyabi-2
