Chapter 131 (Match)

Applause and cheers filled the Xtrema arena as the show began. They all awaited for their beloved women to come out and fight for higher rankings and notoriety.

"This is it, everyone! We've come to another special night of wrestling between our beautiful and mighty ladies! We've got quite a match card of brawls tonight, including the Yin-Yang Tournament finals for the face bracket and the heel bracket. Whoever wins each gets to face each other in the next pay-per-view, Dynamix! Let's see what our night has in store!"

Amazon Aqua vs Cleopatra

At the sound of her music played, Amazon Aqua took the entrance stage and marched to the ring. On the way, she waved to the crowd, and once she entered the ring, she flexed her biceps. Once she was done, Cleopatra made her entrance along with the sound of Egyptian music. She wore her traditional Egyptian royal attire, but she removed them once she got in the ring leaving her with her Egyptian-style two-piece wrestling outfit and her boots.

"Starting us off tonight is the final face-vs-face battle for the Yin-Yang Tournament! These two have fought their hardest to get here, but only one of them can move onto the championship match! Will Amazon Aqua's size and strength overpower Cleopatra or will the Pharoah of Submissions use her flexibility and strong holds to beat the Queen of the Seas?"

DING-DING!

Amazon Aqua and Cleopatra circled each other at the center of the ring. The Egyptian was admittedly very cautious considering how much stronger her opponent was, which was why when the Queen of the Seas reached out for her, she ducked and rolled underneath her arms before standing up behind her. She then landed a dropkick right at Aqua's back. She was pushed forward, but she didn't fall. She kept her stance solid as she turned around.

Amazon Aqua stomped forward to intimidate Cleopatra and it worked. The Pharoah of Submissions backed up until her back touched the corner of the ring. By the time she realized where she was, Aqua quickly moved in and grabbed her by her arms. She held her up and tossed her overhead sending her flying across the ring. She bounced once before landing at the other corner. Cleopatra picked herself up and rested at the corner already looking tired.

Seeing her chance, Amazon Aqua ran at her for an avalanche splash. However, Cleopatra dropped her act and jumped up to the top rope letting her crash to an empty corner. She then grabbed Aqua by her arms and jumped over her. She carried her over and successfully slammed her in a sunset flip. She stayed there for the referee.

1…

Aqua kicked out of that and returned to her knees. However, she didn't have the chance to stand all the way back up before Cleopatra launched a kick that pushed her into a seated position. She then followed it up with an abdominal stretch applied to her while she was sitting. Aqua gritted her teeth feeling her arm and neck stretched. However, it didn't last long. Aqua managed to power out and shoot an elbow right at Cleopatra's face. The Egyptian was stunned just long enough for Aqua to stand back up and attack her with a strong lariat.

Amazon Aqua picked Cleopatra up and launched her to the ropes. When she ran back, Aqua picked her up and slammed her down in a scoop slam. She hooked her leg after that.

1… 2…

Cleopatra managed to free herself from that. She rolled underneath the ropes, but she didn't get off the apron. She stood back up with the ropes while standing on the outside. Amazon Aqua approached her and attempted to grab her. Suddenly, though, Cleopatra grabbed her arm and slammed it onto the ropes. Aqua grunted and felt her stinging arm while Cleopatra climbed back into the ring. She ran as fast as she could right past Aqua. She bounced off the ropes and ran back to the Queen of the Seas. She shot her knee right into Aqua's stomach and actually got a pained reaction from her. Amazon Aqua groaned falling to her knees before Cleopatra knocked her down with an axe kick to her head. She was left face down on the mat.

Cleopatra looked around and found the nearest corner before climbing from it. Once she reached the top, she displayed herself to the crowd with a regal pose. Once she took in the applause, she turned her attention back to Amazon Aqua who was still lying on the ground. She soared off of the top turnbuckle and landed both her knees right on top of the Queen of the Seas' back. Amazon Aqua gasped loudly before collapsing. The Pharoah of Submissions turned her over before hooking her leg.

1… 2…

Amazingly, Amazon Aqua kicked out. Cleopatra was astounded, but not surprised. She wanted to end things by showing the Queen of the Seas why she's called the Pharoah of Submissions.

Turning Aqua back facedown, Cleopatra sat on her back and lifted her arms to be placed over her legs. She then grabbed Aqua's head and pulled it back harshly trapping her in the Sphinx's Riddle. Aqua yelled out feeling a submission hold more painful than anything she felt so far.

The referee knelt down to Aqua. "Amazon Aqua, do you give up?"

Aqua just shook her head, no matter how many times the referee repeated the question.

After a minute of being trapped, Amazon Aqua built up enough energy within herself to begin fighting. Her opponent was both shocked and nervous when she was beginning to shift herself into a standing position. It was a slow process, but it was really looking like it until Cleopatra kicked her legs to stop her. But as Aqua returned to the ground, she used her momentum to throw Cleopatra off of her. As she did so, she grabbed her by her wrists and pulled her back to her with a vicious headbutt.

After stunning Cleopatra again, Amazon Aqua grabbed her by her wrist and Irish whipped her to the corner. She ran at her with another avalanche slam, and this time, it connected knocking the air out of Cleopatra. Aqua then picked her up and set her in a position sitting on the top turnbuckle. Finally, she readied herself beneath her and grabbed the Egyptian by her legs. She stepped forward and slammed her hard onto the mat with her finishing Tidal Wave. Once the ring stopped shaking, Aqua hooked her leg for the pin.

1… 2… 3!

DING-DING!

"Congratulations! Amazon Aqua managed to overpower Cleopatra and win the entire face bracket of the Yin-Yang Tournament! Now, she will have to face either the Skunk or Mercy for the title! Let's see who it'll be!"

The Skunk vs Mercy

The Skunk was the first to make her entrance. As she took the stage, she swayed her hips around swinging her rear end to every general direction before sashaying down the ramp. She climbed up the ring and shook her rear one more time for everyone to admire. Once she was done, Mercy came in at the sound of military music. She stood at attention before military marching to the ring. She didn't lose her composure as she entered the ring and readied herself for the upcoming fight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we've seen the winner of the face bracket of the Yin-Yang Tournament! Now, we move on to the heel finals! The Skunk certainly made her mark in this tournament by handing Eris her first ever loss, but Mercy has vowed to win the belt no matter what! She clearly doesn't want to be anyone's stepping stone anymore! Let's see who takes the win tonight!"
DING-DING!

The Skunk and Mercy started with a collar-and-elbow tie-up. The two of them vied for control until Mercy pulled the Skunk in with a side headlock. She then proceeded to throw the Skunk to the ground and keeping the headlock on. She squeezed tight until the Skunk reached out her legs and wrapped them around Mercy's head. She forced her off easily and transitioned herself to sit right on top of Mercy's face. She wiggled her ass on her while planting her legs on Mercy's shoulders.

1…

The pin didn't last long. Mercy got her shoulders up, but it wasn't enough to push the Skunk off her sitting position.

"Oh, you want more, do you?" The Skunk asked. "Well, I'm no kink-shamer. So I'll give you a big one."

The Skunk lifted herself off of Mercy's face letting her take a big breath. She then dropped herself down to slam her butt on the soldier, but Mercy managed to slip out before the Skunk's butt could connect. The Skunk was stunned enough for the Combat Specialist to slip behind her and lock in a headlock from behind her. While she did that, she used her free hand to sent repeated punches to the Skunk's ribs. The Stinker gasped and grunted with each blow to her side.

After the tenth punch, Mercy forced the Skunk to her feet and Irish whipped her to the ropes. She was about to clothesline her, but the Skunk turned the tables by jumping, turning around, and thrusting her hips backwards to deal a blow at her. While she was down, the Skunk grabbed her legs and turned her over applying a Boston grab. Her big hips provided extra leverage to the submission hold.

"Mercy, do you give up?" the referee asked.

"No!" Mercy answered through her gritted teeth before using her strength to push herself up and power her legs out of the Skunk's hold.

Mercy returned to her feet and turned to face the Skunk. The Stinker stepped forward to fight her, but Mercy surprised her with a backhanded punch. Mercy then tackled the Skunk before straddling her and sending a rain of punches down at her. Once she had reached her fifth, the Skunk managed to grab onto Mercy's wrist, but that didn't stop the soldier. She returned to her feet and carried the Skunk over her shoulders. She spun her around before slamming her down with a Michinoku driver. She grabbed onto the Skunk's leg for the pin.

1… 2…

The Skunk kicked out, but Mercy wasn't done. She grabbed the Skunk's forearms and pulled them back in a surfboard stretch hold while pressing her knee onto her back. The Skunk yelled, but refused to give up. Soon enough, she broke out by swinging her head backwards impacting onto Mercy's face.

Once she was free, the Skunk swung her hips to bludgeon Mercy's head sending her down. She then dragged Mercy to the corner and propped her to the bottom rope. Now was the moment she was waiting for. She turned herself around, shook her butt to give Mercy a sneak preview, and pressed it right at her face. She shook her ass at Mercy's panicked face while taunting her.

"Another one bites the dust! Or in this case, another one kisses the ass!"

"Skunk, get off!" the referee warned.

"Fine." The Skunk said removing herself. She pulled Mercy away from the corner and covered her. "Count it, ref."

1… 2…

Mercy managed to muster up enough strength to kick out. The Skunk was surprised and furious. She stood up and forced Mercy's head up between her legs. She then pressed them against the sides of Mercy's head applying a standing headscissors.

"Just lose already! It's either passing out or tapping out!" The Skunk shouted.

Mercy chose neither. She shot her knee up and made it impact onto the Skunk's stomach. The Stinker grunted before letting go. Mercy then returned to her feet and put up a boxing stance. She sent a series of jabs at the Skunk pushing and forcing her to the corner where she then grabbed her arms and turned her over in a monkey flip. Mercy then climbed up to the top rope and jumped off of it. She successfully splashed onto the Skunk's prone body and pinned her.

1… 2…

The Skunk kicked out. Both women were exhausted at that point. They returned to their feet and faced each other with heavy breaths.

"What's wrong, army brat? You tired?" The Skunk asked.

"I'm not tired. You're tired." Mercy replied. "I can do this shit all day."

"We'll see about that." The Skunk said before throwing a punch right at Mercy's exposed face.

Mercy took the punch and returned with one of her own. They kept exchanging punches until the Skunk couldn't stand anymore. She fell to her knees. She would have collapsed, but Mercy wouldn't let her. Instead, she grabbed her by her arm and wrapped her legs around her with a triangle choke hold. It didn't take long for the Skunk to go limp. The referee checked on her before calling the match.

DING-DING!

"It's over! The Combat Specialist, Mercy, won the heel bracket of the Yin-Yang Tournament! This weekend at Dynamix, it will be Amazon Aqua versus Mercy for the Yin-Yang Championship Belt!"

Mercy scoffed as she stood up and planted her foot on the Skunk's unconscious body. "Looks like you shouldn't have gotten involved in this tournament. Next time, don't interrupt Eris and N-Bomb. Any one of them would have been a better challenge than you." She removed herself and headed backstage.

Viper Takagi vs N-Bomb

After the last match, Viper Takagi made her entrance known. The crowd cheered for the Japanese Amazon as she headed to the ring. After coming in, N-Bomb made her entrance. She stomped on the stage like a sumo before heading down the ramp and going into the ring. She looked over at Viper who exchanged a heated glare back at her.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are graced with a splendid match tonight! Tonight, the Japanese Amazon, Viper Takagi, makes her first appearance as an official member of the Xtrema roster! But don't think it's going to be easy! Her opponent, N-Bomb, is one tough woman, and after her last match was interrupted abruptly, she has a lot of pent-up aggression saved up for this very match!"

DING-DING!

N-Bomb wasted no time in going for a shoulder tackle. Viper couldn't prepare in time to avoid it, but she asserted her strength by planting her feet and stop moving back after a few feet before she hit the corner. Viper then forced N-Bomb into standing straight so she can headbutt her. To show off her strength even more, Viper attempted to lift N-Bomb off her feet, but the fat wrestler wasn't lifted. Instead, she countered by grabbing Viper from behind and launching her backwards in a German suplex. She then covered her for a pin.

1…

Viper kicked out. N-Bomb picked her up and threw her to the corner. She ran at her for a splash, but Viper managed to dodge out of the way allowing her to hit the turnbuckles. She was so stunned, Viper proceeded to use her legs to trip her over and make her fall on her face. She then grabbed N-Bomb's ankle and hold it up twisting it.

"N-Bomb, do you give up?" the referee asked.

"Never ask that question!" N-Bomb shouted before reaching out for the ropes. Once she grabbed it, the referee ordered Viper to free her opponent. N-Bomb returned to her feet and gave a confident grin at Viper. "You idiot. I'm all blubber. Submission holds have no effect on me."

"We'll see about that." Viper replied before rushing for a clothesline. However, N-Bomb countered by quickly lifting the Japanese Amazon up over her shoulders. She then spun her around before tossing her out of the ring.

Viper groaned trying to get up, but N-Bomb didn't give her the chance to. She climbed over the ropes before jumping off the apron and landing her whole body onto Viper crushing her at the ringside floor. After that, N-Bomb returned to her feet and presented herself proudly slapping her chest like a sumo wrestler. She then lifted Viper by her brown hair and attempted to throw her to the barricade, but Viper managed to reverse her momentum and throw N-Bomb to the barricade instead. After that, Viper turned around to return to the ring. N-Bomb recovered and did the same. By then, the referee had already counted to eight.

After getting back in the ring, Viper took back control of the match. She grabbed N-Bomb's head and slammed her to the mat with an impactful DDT. She followed it by turning N-Bomb over and hooking her leg for the pin.

1… 2…

N-Bomb kicked out. Viper then grabbed onto her legs and twisted them around hers. She forced N-Bomb to turn around and apply a cloverleaf. N-Bomb grunted harshly before replying.

"You idiot! I already told you, submissions don't hurt me!"

"Yeah?" Viper asked tightening the hold. "Then why are you gritting your teeth?"

N-Bomb growled angrily before managing to power out of the hold. She returned to her feet just as Viper approached. The fat wrestler managed to surprise N-Bomb with a swift headbutt to her face. She grabbed her head and struck it with her own again and again until she had enough. Viper staggered and fell on her back. N-Bomb ran to the ropes and bounced off. She returned to Viper and splashed right on top of her. She stayed on top for the pin.

1… 2…

Viper kicked out and angered N-Bomb, who then picked her up and slammed her down with a Michinoku driver. She kept her there for another pin attempt.

1… 2…

Once again, Viper kicked out. N-Bomb grabbed her hair again and forced her up her feet to confront her face to face. "All right, you bitch. It's time for the ultimate punishment."

The referee was about to order N-Bomb to let go of Viper's hair, but she didn't have to. She Irish whipped the Japanese Amazon to the corner before charging at her with her finishing splash, Detonation. The attack connected, but something unbelievable happened.

The audience felt hurt watching the Detonation splash on Viper's body, but they became more surprised when they saw Viper's hands circle around N-Bomb's body and grab the back of her outfit. Even N-Bomb herself was surprised before Viper forced herself forward out of the corner and slamming her opponent down on the mat. The crowd cheered with excitement seeing N-Bomb's finisher backfire on her.

Viper took in heavy breaths as she turned N-Bomb over and applied a Boston crab. What came next was something unprecedented, something that the audience didn't think they'd hear from N-Bomb… She screamed. In the hold, N-Bomb cried out feeling her legs get strained.

"Give up?" the referee asked.

"NO! I DON'T GIVE UP!" N-Bomb shouted. She tried to go for the ropes, but Viper used much of her remaining strength to keep her in the center.

"No one is immune to submissions. Not even you." Viper Takagi said. "It's time you learned that the hard way."

Viper pulled N-Bomb's chubby legs even more causing her to yell out some more. N-Bomb tried to fight it and power out, but nothing she could do worked. After a full minute of enduring the painful Boston crab, N-Bomb surprised the audience by tapping out on the mat.

DING-DING!

"What an amazing result, folks! For the first time in her career, N-Bomb has tapped out! And it looks like the submission came from none other than our newest addition to the roster, Viper Takagi! If she's looking to make a name for herself, she is making a great start!"

After being released, N-Bomb left the ring and headed backstage. She made it to her locker room where she huffed angrily.

Scarlette and Clover confront the Daughters of Darkness

After a brief blackout, the lights came back on in the arena and Midnight stood at the center of the ring with Electra Sinders beside her. They both held up the Tag Team title belts for everyone to see. After that, they waited for their future PPV opponents. Scarlette and Clover left the entrance stage and entered the ring to confront the champions. Clover had the TV Championship belt hanging over her shoulder.

"Well, well, well." Midnight said. "I'm surprised you two are still here. I thought for sure you'd quit by now."

"We don't quit, Midnight." Scarlette said. "At Dynamix, Clover and I will grind you and Sinders in the mat and take your championships."

Electra snickered. "Is that really what you believe? Poor Scarlette. Poor Clover. You two claim to be best friends, yet you want different things. After all, Scarlette was the TV Championship before and was about to get it again until her so-called 'friend' threw her out of the ring for that belt. So much for friendship."

"Exactly." Midnight said. "Friendship has its limits. But Electra and I are the Daughters of Darkness, sisters of evil bound by a dark oath. We will carry these belts until the shadows cease being cast."

"Ah, shut your yaps!" Clover retorted. "You actually think that this thing with Electra is a good thing? She's just a stand-in. I bet that if Azraella Bloodstone wasn't in the hospital, then she would be here instead of this rock star."

"Well said, Clover." Scarlette said.

"I ain't no one's stand-in!" Electra snapped. "In fact, I bet neither of you could take us on your own."

"Well, unfortunately for you, it doesn't work that way." Scarlette said. "This is for the Tag Team titles, so this has to be a tag team match. Nothing can be done, I'm afraid."

"Actually, there can." Midnight said taking everyone's curiosity. "There is a way we can either prove our individual strength or put you in a most threatening position. For our match at Dynamix, we hereby challenge you… to an elimination tag team match!"

Scarlette raised her red eyes. "Excuse me?"

"You heard me." Midnight said stroking her finger across Scarlette's chin. "An elimination match. The match isn't over until both members of a team are defeated. That way, once we eliminate one of you, then the other one will have to face the Daughters of Darkness on her own."

Scarlette and Clover exchanged looked before the latter nodded to her partner, who then turned back at the vampire and the goth rock star. "Fine. Elimination rules, it is. See you at Dynamix."

The Daughters gave evil smiles before exiting the ring. They left the crowd in a state of excitement for the upcoming match.

Xtrema Shorts

The audience cheered once the show began and Chibi Monica Everly sat in her chair on the stage. Right next to her was Chibi Jun Juli, who extended her legs for the whistling admirers who watched her.

"Welcome to Xtrema Shorts, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Monica Everly, and today, we have a special guest here to answer our questions. She's hot. She's tough. She's got legs for days. She's Jun Juli!"

"Great to be here, Monica." Chibi Jun said. "I understand you've got questions for me?"

"Well, me and pretty much everyone who reads this story." Chibi Monica said. "We'll ask you the standard questions first before we get to the personal questions asked by the readers, mainly Awesome ax10. Are you ready?"

"Hit me with your best shot."

"Good. Now, first question… Who was your debut opponent?"

"Well, as everybody knows if they read chapter 53, my debut opponent was Kyoko Natsumi. I intended to win to help Candy Pair feel better after losing their title match at GWM. The match didn't turn out the way I expected, but either way, Milk and Mint felt a whole lot better, and I guess it worked out anyway."

"What's it like facing Kaito Marx?"

"I feel like this question needs to be updated now that Kaito's out of his slump. But to answer your question, I guess it depends on where he ends up. He's tougher now than he was before, so in a match between him and me, it could go either way. But if I ever catch him in a side-bodyscissors, it would be a little difficult to make him tap out thanks to that tough back of his. It's a whole different story, however, when it comes to a scissor hold from behind."

"What do you think of Sayuri Rogue?"

"Pretty cool boss. I mean, not as cool as Mr. Matsuda, of course, but she's pretty okay."

"Who's the easiest opponent you've faced other than Kaito?"

"Hmm… I'd say it would have to be Charlie Hart. That's just off the top of my head.

"Okay. Now, let's move onto the personal questions. First… Did the restaurant business improve at all after Xtrema Against the World?"

"Well, sort of. I mean, it would have been better if I won my match, but I did get a couple of fans who liked my performance."

"Will you be open to the free bird rule in case Candy Pair needs you?"

"Me? I would have thought that they'd reserve that third spot for Spring Tiger. I mean, she kinda already implemented that rule in her debut. But if they ever ask me, sure. I'd gladly fill in for either of them."

"What do you think of Spring Tiger?"

"She seems cool. A little green and rough around the edges, but if Milk and Mint like her, that's okay with me."

"Well, thanks for your time. It's good to be back. If anyone has any questions they'd like to ask our wrestlers, feel free to ask either in the comments or PMs. We'll see you all next time. Any and all questions are welcome."
