Chapter 136 (Halloween Special)
*Eris and Platinum Mask vs Vanessa Slayer and Sister Justice*
The crowd turned their attention to the titantron which showed four women standing face to face in the middle of a convenience store. On one side stood Eris (who wore a long, black wig and a purple dress like Eris from the Sinbad movie) and Platinum Mask (who's outfit was entirely purple to match her partner's signature color. The other side had Vanessa Slayer (who was dressed as a pilgrim) and Sister Justice (who dressed in a sexy nun costume with a black mask covering the lower side of her face).
Jessica's voice called from the intercom inside the convenience store. "Coming up next is a special little two-on-two brawl inside this convenience store. Representing Xtrema, we have a team known as the Pantheon, consisting of Eris and Platinum Mask. And representing Hardkor, we have Vanessa Slayer and Sister Justice, two women with pretty intense methods of fighting monsters. Well, let's not waste any seconds longer. Remember, knockouts and submissions declare the winner."
DING-DING!
"I'll take the Helsing wannabe." Eris said. "You take the Catholic."
Platinum Mask nodded and rushed forward to tackle Sister Justice. While they were rolling on the floor for control, Eris and Vanessa Slayer locked up and made their way to the dining area by the bistro. Vanessa grabbed Eris' head and dropped it on the table. Eris grabbed Vanessa's head and did the same to her, but harder making her let go. Eris then kicked Vanessa to the bistro and hit her with a kick so hard, it sent her flying over the counter. Eris jumped over the counter and picked Vanessa up. She brought her to the food trays that sat steaming under the heat lamps of the counter and shoved her face into it.
"Consider this the appetizer, baby!" Eris shouted.
Back at the other fight, Platinum Mask and Sister Justice returned to their feet where the former punched her opponent's arms off of her shoulders and shot a kick. However, Sister Justice caught it and turned her over quickly in a dragon screw. She then gripped onto the foot tightly twisting it into an ankle lock. Platinum Mask yelled out catching the ear of her partner/master.
Eris removed Vanessa Slayer from a bowl of mashed potatos and held her up. "Sorry, babe. Gotta save my worshipper. But hey. Here's one for the road." Eris slowly scraped her tongue on Vanessa's face slowly licking the mashed potatoes off her face before slamming her to the floor. She then rushed to Sister Justice and speared her until they hit the far end of a store aisle.
Eris bashes her head on Sister Justice's face before slipping behind her. She hooked her arms around her's and held her back while Platinum Mask got back up.
"Get her, servant!" Eris commanded.
Platinum Mask nodded and held her fists up like a boxer. She threw punches at Sister Justice's stomach. She kept up the pace until Vanessa Slayer stepped in. She grabbed Platinum Mask from behind and turned her around forcing her to face her. Sister Justice took the chance to raise her feet up and kick Platinum Mask's back pushing her toward Vanessa while she pushed Eris back to the aisle. The grunt made her release Sister Justice while Vanessa grabbed Platinum Mask and throw her down into a belly-to-belly suplex.
The Hardkor girls passed each other and picked up different members of the Pantheon. Vanessa held up and trapped Eris in a side headlock while Sister Justice did the same with Platinum Mask.
"I've got the false goddess." Vanessa said.
"And I've got the backstabber." Sister Justice said.
Together, the two ran towards each other and slammed Eris and Platinum Mask's heads together. Once they both fell, Vanessa headed to the gardening aisle and returned with a garden hose which she proceeded to wrap around Eris' neck. Meanwhile, Sister Justice lifted Platinum Mask slightly and locked her in a steiner recliner. While she had her there, she grabbed the back of her bask and started unlacing.
"Time for the world to put a face on your treachery." Sister Justice said.
Platinum Mask widened her eyes panicking at her predicament. Before Sister Justice had the time to finish, Platinum Mask powered out of the hold and grabbed her by her wrist before Irish whipping her to Vanessa Slayer. After getting hit by her own partner, Vanessa released Eris letting her cough out some air as Platinum Mask helped her return to her feet.
"I knew you cared." Eris said to Platinum Mask.
"Let's just demolish these two." Platinum Mask said.
Eris took the lead as she approached the Hardkor girls as they were trying to get up down the aisle. She grabbed candy from the shelves and tossed them at her opponents trying to stop them. It didn't do much, but Eris got close enough to send a strong kick to Vanessa Slayer's face.
"That's for the hose, bitch!" Eris shouted before turning to Sister Justice. "And as for you…"
Eris grabbed the vigilante's black bottoms and yanked them up. Sister Justice cried out in a loud shriek as Eris pulled the wedgie harder and laughed as she did so. Vanessa Slayer was about to get up to stop them, but she was pulled away by Platinum Mask who held her in a sleeper hold making her watch her partner's humiliation.
"I'm curious," Eris said, "Can these undies stretch far enough for an atomic wedgie? Only one way to find out!" She pulled up harder making Sister Justice scream louder.
Vanessa's eyes flared up. She moved her way to Platinum Mask's arm and sank her teeth into it while stomping on her foot. The Kasparian princess yelled before Vanessa hit her with a right hook. She then opened a freezer door and pushed Platinum Mask in before taking a rake and using it to bar the door shut.
With Platinum Mask out of the way, Vanessa was free to save her partner by running to Eris, grabbing her head, and hitting her with a natural selection. She helped Sister Justice recover before they both turned to Eris. They grabbed both of her arms and sent her running down the aisle right to the cash register counter. Sister Justice grabbed Eris by her waist and held her upside down ready to hit her with a piledriver. While she did that, Vanessa Slayer climbed to the top of the counter. Once she jumped off, she grabbed Eris' feet and pushed them down just as Sister Justice dropped down to her knees. Eris head impacted the floor and she fell over.
"Is she out?" Sister Justice asked.
Vanessa Slayer knelt down to examine the Goddess of Chaos. "No. But she's close."
"Then let's finish her." Sister Justice said. She headed back to the gardening aisle and returned with a large shovel in her hand. She raised it up ready to strike it down on Eris' head.
Suddenly, Platinum Mask finally broke the rake that locked her in the freezer and she busted out. She didn't hesitate to rush over to the Hardkor girls as fast as she could. She ran right towards Sister Justice, but before she could grab her, the vigilante turned suddenly and struck her shovel right on Platinum Mask's head instead. The impact caused her to drop right onto her back as Sister Justice landed another hit on her with her shovel to knock her out. But she wasn't done. She returned to Eris and knocked her out with the same shovel.
DING-DING!
"Well, that's it, folks! Our two evil-fighters, Vanessa Slayer and Sister Justice, pulled off a brutal win over the Pantheon handing Eris a rare loss in the process! Guess these two are craftier than anyone gave them credit for!"
*Viper Takagi vs Ashley "A.I." Irena*
Back in the ring, two women stood. One was Viper Takagi, who wore a jungle-print cavewoman costume which complimented her height. The other was Ashley "A.I." Irena, who wore a fullbody robot costume that made her look similar to one of the robot twins from Atomic Heart. As they stood in the ring, a cage was lowered onto the ring apron and sparked once it locked.
"This here is an electric match, folks… literally! It's an electric cage match where the two women, Viper Takagi and A.I. must wrestle inside of a cage with electric bars. Standard winning standards apply."
DING-DING!
The two of them met at the center where A.I. walked up and looked up at Viper without a sign of fear.
"Why don't you go back to the cave where you came from?" A.I. asked.
Viper growled. "You really are asking for it."
"I'm begging for it! Who's gonna give it to me?!"
Viper caught her by surprise with a sudden punch to her stomach. She then picked her up and tossed her to the cage wall where an explosion of electricity sparked upon impact. Viper reached down to grab her, but A.I. rolled out of the way and countered with a punch to her side. Viper groaned loudly not just because of the surprise punch, but because the punch sent a jolt of electric shock to her side.
Viper dropped to her knees as A.I. struck her face with her knee, which also hit her with electric shocks. A.I. then straddled her and gripped the sides of her head with her hands. Viper yelled feeling a continuous surge of electricity burning at her head before she finally let go.
"You like it? It's my latest design." A.I. said showing off her suit. "I knew we were facing each other in an electric cage match, so I designed this suit to absorb electricity which I can then use in my attacks. Observe."
A.I. walked over to the cage and placed her hands on the bars. Electricity shot out, but it didn't bother her. She just continued to take it in as her robot costume began to light up glowing blue. She finally let go of the bars and showed off her suit to the crowd proudly. While she did that, Viper slowly returned to her feet.
"You see?" A.I. continued to gloat. "Brains will always beat your stupid, pathetic strength any day!" She headed over to deliver a right hook to Viper, but she Japanese Amazon dodged and countered with a clinch.
"Unless you can't hit me." Viper said before lifting A.I. up and slamming her to the mat. After that, Viper grabbed A.I. by the front of her costume and held her up in a military press before slamming her back down with a Samoan drop. She looked down at A.I. who was struggling to remain conscious.
"You know, if you had actually trained instead of working on your outfit like a fashion diva, you might actually be a threat to me." Viper said lifting her opponent to her feet. "It's people like you who give wrestlers a bad name. So I'll make this quick."
Viper Irish whipped A.I. across the ring and to the ropes. When she bounced back, Viper extended her arm for a clothesline, but A.I. ducked under it and continued running to the other ropes. She bounced again and dropkicked Viper from behind. As usual, electricity made it hurt more. Viper fell to her knees as A.I. regained her momentum and raised her leg before hitting Viper with an electric axe kick. She then jumped up and landed both her feet on Viper's back sparking at impact.
"How's that for a bad name?" A.I. asked mockingly as she straddled onto Viper's back. She raised her charged up fists and used them to punch Viper repeatedly at the back of the head. "Oh. And there's one more feature to this suit I forgot to mention…" She pulled Viper in and held her in a STF. "I can release all my built-up energy all at once at a given time. Such as…"
A.I.'s suit glowed brightly before releasing a great jolt of electricity causing Viper to scream out in pain. It lasted a few long moments before the lightning ended. A.I. stood up with a proud grin and flipped Viper onto her back. She then planted her foot on her chest.
"A pinfall on the first attempt. My kind of match."
1… 2…
Much to everyone's surprise, including A.I.'s Viper thrusted her shoulder up to stop the pin.
"What? How… You know what? It doesn't matter!" A.I. turned to the cage and grabbed onto the bars. "I'll just get some more juice to finish you off with."
A.I. felt the electricity flow into her suit while Viper slowly got back up to her feet. She shocked everyone getting up pretty quickly. She especially surprised A.I. by wrapping her arms around her waist and pulling her away from the cage. She threw A.I. back and landed her in a German suplex before picking her back up and hitting her with another one.
"I'll finish this all right." Viper growled as she picked A.I. up and trapped her in an strong bearhug. She even trapped her arms within her own so she wouldn't hit her. Desperately, A.I. hit Viper with her knees, but even with the electric shocks, the strikes were too weak to do any real damage. She just kept tightening the hold harder and harder hearing A.I. cry out in pain until…
"I GIVE UP!"
DING-DING!
Viper dropped A.I. to the mat and planted her foot on top of her. She raised her arms and flexed for the entire crowd.
"In a battle of brains vs brawn, it looks like Viper Takagi came out on top! A.I. certainly had an advantage with her modified costume, but even lightning wasn't enough to bring down this amazon! Now, onto the main event!"
*Queen Bee, Thunder Mana, Scarlette, Clover, and Jasper Jones vs Fiona Fangs, Kassidy Klaws, Rahn, Zombie Girl, and Number 42561*
The last match took place in a prison courtyard that was nearly empty. The match started with two women facing each other in the yard. One was Clover who wore a white dress and white paint over her skin that made her look like Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil, but her dress was torn from the bottom so she would use her legs. The other was Number 42561 who, along with her orange jumpsuit, had on a mask like Mankind from WWE.
At the end of the courtyard were two teams in cages. One cage had wrestlers from Xtrema. Queen Bee had on a Wonder Woman costume. Thunder Mana wore a blue, furry costume that made her look like James Sullivan from Monsters Inc. Scarlette was dressed as a vampire with a red cloak. Lastly, Jasper Jones looked like a Roman gladiator.
In the other cage, Hardkor wrestler eagerly awaited their turn. Fiona Fangs was dressed as a werewolf. Kassidy Klaws had a gorilla suit. Rahn didn't bother changing costume and kept the veil over her face. Lastly, Zombie Girl was covered with moss and dirt making her look more zombie-like than usual.
"Ladies and gentlemen, for our main event, we have something called the WarGames prison style! In this courtyard, two teams of five will face off in a no-holds-barred battle for supremacy! Every two minutes, the prison doors will open letting another member of the teams out that alternate! The winner will be whichever team makes the first pin or submission! They don't count until every member of the teams are here! Now, a coin was flipped earlier to decide which team will send out a member first! And so, it landed on tails, which means Hardkor goes first! Good luck, ladies!"
DING-DING!
The first two competitors met at the center of the courtyard where Clover took the first swing throwing a punch at 42561. The jailbird dodged and kicked a patch of dirt under her foot. The dirt flew up to Clover's face temporarily blinding her. 42561 took her chance and threw her own punch at Clover's face. She then struck her again with a backhanded fist before sweeping at her legs making her fall on her back. She then jumped over her and landed her elbow onto her collar.
"Did you forget that I'm a prisoner?" 42561 asked straddling her. "You're in my element now, bitch."
The prisoner threw another punch, but Clover grabbed her arm before she could. She then twisted it making her cry out in pain before shooting her head up and hitting her in the jaw. 42561 got off, but Clover didn't let go of her arm. She stood up with her and twisted it some more.
"Did you forget that you're not the only one who's used to hardcore rules?" Clover returned cockily.
Clover pulled 42561 towards her and hit her with a clothesline. She then stepped back a few feet before running back. She jumped and landed her back right on top of 42561's prone body. She then picked her back up and put her in a great, big bearhug. She squeezed tightly causing pain onto Clover's whole torso. She kept the hold on until…
BUZZ!
At the sound of the buzzer, Harkor's cage opened long enough for one of them to head out and join the match. It was Kassidy Klaws who looked at Clover with a condescending sneer. Clover huffed and dropped 42561 on the ground to confront her newest opponent.
"Jumpsuit there was just the appetizer." Kassidy said. "Time for the main course."
"I highly doubt you're anything like that." Clover said cracking her knuckles. She stepped forward to fight, but something stopped her.
Clover looked down and saw 42561 grabbing onto her leg and not let go. She then bit her hard in her calf making the big bruiser yell. Kassidy took advantage of Clover's circumstance and kicked her in the gut. With her in position, she placed Clover's head between her legs and dropped her facefirst onto the concrete floor.
42561 got back up and joined Kassidy Klaws into standing over the stunned Clover. They grinned as they got the same idea. First, Kassidy picked Clover up and held her in a full nelson. 42561 reached into her shoe and pulled out a set of brass knuckles which she then slid onto her fingers. She shot a hard right cross at Kassidy's face putting her in a nearly unconscious state. Kassidy proceeded to pick her up and lift her high above her head for everyone to see. She then flexed her muscles using her as a weight before letting her drop back onto the ground.
Kassidy and 4251 looked down at Clover and trampled their feet onto her. While they did that, they turned to the Xtrema cage flipping them off. Angered, they gathered.
"Okay. We've got a few seconds before the timer buzzes and it's our turn." Thunder Mana said. "Bee, you're our leader. Who do we send next?"
"Send me." Scarlette said. "Clover's my friend. I have to save her."
"No. Send me." Jasper said. "They shall feel the wrath of Barbaria the Savage Queen."
"Good pitches, girls," Queen Bee said, "But I'm choosing Thunder Mana."
"All right."
BUZZ!
At the sound of the buzzer, Xtrema's cage opened and Mana marched out. Kassidy Klaws removed herself from Clover and approached to confront her. Once the two of them were face to face, they locked their hands together in a test of strength.
"It's been a long time since I've faced a worthy opponent." Kassidy said.
"You flatter me." Mana said.
"I didn't say you were a worthy opponent. I'm just generally complaining." Kassidy mocked before pulling Mana in a side headlock.
Before anything else could be done, Thunder Mana wrapped her arms around Kassidy's waist and threw her backwards in a German suplex. She turned and saw Prisoner 42561 attempting to punch her with her brass knuckles. Thunder Mana grabbed her by her arm and punched her in the stomach to stop her. She then positioned her to stand between her and Kassidy who was just getting up. Thunder Mana ran up to them both and hit them both with a single spear crashing them onto the ground.
Once both Hardkor girls were down, Thunder Mana headed over to Clover to check on her. She was still conscious, but barely. She looked around and laid her eyes on a pumpkin. She was unsure what kind it was, but she decided to chance it. She smashed it open and held up a red ticket with the Xtrema logo on it.
"Ooh! It looks like Thunder Mana just found a free pass ticket for her team!" Jessica Jacklyn announced. "She is now free to exchange one of her teammates with another in her team's cage until she (in this case, Clover) has recovered!"
"Really?" Thunder Mana asked before nodding toward her team.
After some deliberating, they settled with Scarlette. Thunder Mana pulled Clover into the cage while Scarlette joined her outside. Around that time, Kassidy Klaws and Number 42561 stood back up, but they were brought back down when Mana and Scarlette kicked them in their stomachs and dropped them in a DDT.
BUZZ!
It was Hardkor's time to send someone out. Mana and Scarlette turned to see who was coming out. Much to their surprise, it was Zombie Girl who limped out of the cage and confronted them. They shrugged and Scarlette rushed to fight her first only to be thrown in a surprise judo flip. Thunder Mana ran at her, but let out a loud cough as soon as Zombie Girl punched her in the stomach. She then hit her with an uppercut to stun her before grabbing her head and hitting her with a strong headbutt.
Zombie Girl turned to Scarlette who just got up and turned to face her opponent. The two of them locked up, but Zombie Girl's superior strength tossed Scarlette aside. She rolled and landed on her knee as Zombie Girl ran towards her. Thankfully, Scarlette was faster than her, so she got behind her and grabbed her shoulder. She made her drop her back right on top of her knees.
Scarlette thought she had the upper hand, but Number 42561 surprised her with a bash to the back of her head. Kassidy Klaws followed and pressed her elbow onto Scarlette's neck. Thankfully, it didn't last long. Thunder Mana recovered from the headbutt and tackled Kassidy off of her teammate. The two of them rolled around the ring as Xtrema's buzzer rang out.
BUZZ!
Up next, Jasper Jones left the cage. She wasted no time in going after Zombie Girl. She tackled her in the stomach and threw her up into the air. She grabbed her by her neck as she returned down and sent her down in a chokeslam.
Jasper turned to Number 42561, who was the only one left on Hardkor's team still standing. She ran towards her, but 42561 brought out the brass knuckles again and hit her square in the stomach. However, much to her surprise, Jasper didn't budge. Instead, she sent her flying backwards with a strong Spartan kick.
42561 growled getting up, but stopped when she saw a pumpkin right next to her. Remembering what the last pumpkin had, she grinned as she smashed it open with her fist and pulled out a red ticket with the Hardkor logo.
"And it looks like Number 42561 found her team's ticket. The question is, who will be taking a break and who will be tagging in."
"Since I was here longest, I should rest." 42561 called out as she headed to the cage. The door opened and Rahn stepped out to take the jailbird's place.
"The crook or the mystery lady. I don't care." Jasper said. "Just as long as…"
Rahn interrupted Jasper when she suddenly appeared in front of her and hit the side of her head with a high roundhouse kick. The warrior woman stumbled until Rahn grabbed her hair. She yanked it hard sending Jasper down onto the ground.
BUZZ!
"Looks like it's our turn." 42561 said turning to Fiona Fangs. "Good luck, Fi."
"Not so fast." Fiona said. "I'm not going out there just yet. I'm the main event. You go."
"What?" 42561 asked loudly. "But I just got here!"
"Too bad. I'm the leader, and I say go before I throw you out."
Number 42561 grumbled as she left the cage. Right as she did, she found Thunder Mana and Kassidy Klaws still tussling on the ground in front of her. Getting an idea, she grabbed Mana by her hair and pulled her up. Kassidy took advantage of her opponent's pain and headbutted her. She then picked her up, pulled her ankles behind her back, and trapped her in her finishing hold, Klaws Mark. She got a yell from Thunder Mana before she suplexed her to the ground.
Inside the Xtrema cage, Clover had finally stood back up fully awake. She was still dazed for a moment to find Queen Bee sharing the same cage as her.
"Queen Bee?" Clover asked. "What happened? I thought I was out there."
"You were, but you were out pretty bad." Queen Bee said. "Don't worry. We didn't lose, but we don't have the advantage right now."
Clover looked out to see her teammates in peril. Thunder Mana was getting pummeled to the ground by Kassidy Klaws, Jasper was getting hit with furious strikes by Rahn, and Zombie Girl and Number 42561 were continuously stomping on Scarlette. Her friend's predicament was the most troubling to Clover.
"How much time is left before I can go?" she asked.
"I'd say right about…"
BUZZ!
The cage door opened, and Clover ran out to rescue Scarlette. She surprised both 42561 and Zombie Girl with a clothesline that knocked them down. After that, she helped Scarlette get back up to her feet.
"Thanks." Scarlette said.
"Don't mention it." Clover said. "Now, let's take these bitches down!"
Clover and Scarlette spread out to help their teammates. Clover pulled Kassidy off of Thunder Mana and hit her with a double-fisted uppercut. Meanwhile, Scarlette pulled Rahn away from Jasper Jones and held her with a Scarlette Lock.
After being free from Rahn's relentless attacks, Jasper Jones took a second to breathe before heading over to the Hardkor wrestler's veiled face.
"You know, I've always wondered who this was." Jasper said raising her hand to unmask her.
Suddenly, Rahn shot her knee on Scarlette's head to make her let go. She then grabbed Jasper by her breastplate and threw her onto Scarlette getting them both off of her as she recovered. She stood back up and turned to face them both.
BUZZ!
The last buzz for Hardkor rang out and Fiona Fangs exited her cage loosening her shoulders. She checked over and fixed her eyes on Zombie Girl and Number 42561. She helped them up and pointed over at the rest of their teammates who were being double-teamed by the Xtrema wrestlers.
"Zombie Girl, you take Scarlette and Jones. 42561, you're with me on saving Kassidy… even though I would rather see her choke."
Zombie Girl nodded and headed to Scarlette and Jasper Jones who were waiting for Rahn to make a move. Suddenly, she grabbed them both and held them in headlocks with both arms. Rahn ran over to them and sent a flying knee strike on Jasper Jones' head sending her down. She turned and did the same thing to Scarlette. With both down, Rahn and Zombie Girl picked Scarlette and Jasper up respectively and attacked them. Surprisingly, they fought back.
Meanwhile, Clover was caught in a surprise clothesline by Number 42561. It didn't send her down, but it put her away from Thunder Mana and Kassidy Klaws just enough for Fiona to run over to the former and send her down with a dropkick. Fiona turned to her half sister and helped her up to her feet.
"I could've gotten out on my own." Kassidy huffed.
"You're welcome." Fiona snapped back. "Just handle thunder thighs and keep her away from me." She turned and grinned at the Xtrema cage. "It's time to settle a score."
BUZZ!
It was the last buzz of the match. Xtrema's cage door opened just as the rain started to fall. While the rest of the wrestlers were fighting in a stalemate, Queen Bee and Fiona Fangs kept their eyes fixed on each other. Bee walked out of the cage and met Fiona at the dead center of the courtyard. Their faces were merely two inches apart.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't Dull-N'-Broken." Fiona mocked calling her enemy by her old mocking name.
"Ooh. Real fresh." Queen Bee replied. "As for me, though, I never run out of insults, Fiona Freakshow."
Fiona's smile dropped. "Let's do this."
"Queens first."
Queen Bee fired her first punch, but Fiona blocked it with her arm. She then swung her leg up to kick her, but Bee tilted her head out of the way catching her ankle that was above her. Fiona grinned as she spun herself hitting Bee's head with her other foot. Queen Bee dropped in a puddle made by the rain that poured around her.
Fiona planted her knee on Bee's back and wrapped her arm around her neck. She pulled her up clutching her under her leg while Bee groaned through her gritted teeth.
"Is that all you got? Come on!" Fiona shouted into her ear. "It looks like you're still the pathetic little bug I used to squash!"
Queen Bee's anger fueled her. She thrusted her head back to hit Fiona in the mouth. She then grabbed her head and dropped her in a stunner. She then attempted a pin, but Fiona got out of it.
Queen Bee lifted Fiona up and held her above her shoulders in a torture rack. Unfortunately, Fiona struck Bee's head to make her loosen her hold just enough for her to slip out, get in front of her, and rake her across her eyes. Queen Bee yelled out in pain before Fiona grabbed her head and pulled her towards her. That's when she opened her mouth and sank her teeth into Queen Bee's forehead making her stream louder. She released Bee's forehead and looked into her eyes.
"Ready to give up yet, loser?"
"N-N-Not on your life." Bee said weakly just as a trickle of blood escaped from her forehead.
Fiona sneered as she sent a fearsome punch across Queen Bee's face. What came next was a one-sided beating in Fiona's favor. She struck her gut with her knee, send her flying up with a high kick, struck the back of her head with her elbow, and finished her with a DDT to the hard ground. She then straddled Queen Bee's back and gripped her black hair. She raised her head up and repeatedly smashed it onto the hard, wet concrete over and over until she stopped. She turned Queen Bee onto her back and hooked her finger into her left cheek.
"You never had a chance with me, and you never will." Fiona taunted. "As much as I'd love to pin you, it'll be much sweeter if you just submit to me and call me your queen. So… give up?"
"N-N-No." Queen Bee replied trying to stay awake.
Fiona growled angrier hitting Bee's head on the ground again. "Why not?! You've got no chance!"
"Oh, I don't know about that." Queen Bee chuckled. "After all, I kept you distracted, didn't I?"
Fiona's eyes flared and she turned to see the rest of her team. Most of them were still on equal footing, but Clover managed to raise Number 42561 up and throw her far across the yard. She hit Zombie Girl during her battle against Scarlette. The red masked wrestler then got on top of the prisoner and put her in a Scarlette Lock.
"NO!" Fiona shouted. She got off to try and stop her, but Queen Bee grabbed her by her leg and made her trip. Furiously, she kicked at her trying to get her to let go, but it proved to be in vain. By the time Fiona had freed herself from her rival's grip, 42561 already tapped out.
DING-DING!
"Wow! What a match! It looks like Queen Bee just outsmarted the Hardkor ace while her teammates took home the win!"
"What?!" Fiona asked as the rest of the Xtrema wrestlers headed over to Queen Bee to help her up. "You… You played me? Like a violin?"
Queen Bee smiled and gave a pained chuckle. "No, Fi. Violins are hard to play. I played you like the cheap kazoo you are. I've always wanted to say that."
Fiona growled and wanted to attack Bee, but her Hardkor wrestlers held her back. The main event was over. It was finally time for the MVP selection.
*MVP*
After getting bandaged up, Queen Bee joined the rest of the winners on the stage. An hour passed after the fans turned in their votes. Jessica Jacklyn took centerstage with an envelope in one hand and a microphone in the other.
"All right, you Halloween celebraters! We've had an intense, scary night, but now, it's time to pick the top woman of All Hallow's Eve! But first, let's take a moment to acknowledge our winners!
"First, we have Ryona Kuno, who pulled off a surprising win against Kaito Marx in the opening match. Next is Jintana Mookjai, who took home the win in her first blood match in spectacular fashion. Poison got Xtrema's first win of the night in her Trick or Street Fight. After that, we have Clementine Cirrus, who managed to trample and choke out Stampede Steele. Hotrina used her wits and her opponent's lustful desires to win the blood wrestling match. And let's not forget Cerberus getting one over the Daughters of Darkness with their unique talents. Vanessa Slayer and Sister Justice pulled of a good win at their convenience store, but it was Viper Takagi who pulled off an electric win. Finally, Queen Bee and her team successfully won the main event in a way no one saw coming. Good work.
"And now, without further ado, let's look at our winners." Jessica opened her envelope and read from it. "Our third place winner is… Ryona Kuno!"
"Well, bronze ain't so bad," Ryona said, "Even though I deserve the gold."
"Our second place winner is… Ursula!"
"Me?" Ursula asked.
"Well, you did save the rest of us." Destiny said. "I say take it."
"And last, but certainly not least, our first place winner is… QUEEN BEE!"
Queen Bee smiled proudly as her teammates congratulated her and she was given the check by Jessica Jacklyn.
"Well, that about wraps up the Xtrema vs Hardkor Halloween Special! Come back next time when things get a bit more… festive."
Author's Note: Happy Halloween, everybody. I hope you enjoyed this special. I'll be honest, I was having such a hard time with it, I almost decided to be late. But nope, I pulled through just in time.
Now, I'd like to make a little announcement. Like my friend, Awesome ax10, I have decided to take a break from this Xtrema story and come back when it's time for the Christmas Special. And since it's the first Christmas Special in two years, I wanted to make this extra special. I thought hard about what to do here, and I came up with a solution. This December, our Christmas Special is going to consist of nine matches between... Xtrema and WWE.
That's right. Xtrema is going to celebrate the holidays by duking it out with the female superstars of WWE. If anyone has any match ideas, I'd like to hear them. Just a few things first. First, this has to be Xtrema vs WWE. That means Xtrema characters must face WWE characters and not each other. Second, the WWE wrestlers featured here must be female. They can be current superstars or alumni, but they cannot be dead. That's where I draw the line.
So with all that settled, I'm looking forward to what comes next. Have a Happy Halloween. Any and all comments are welcome.
