Chapter 96 (Xtrema Against the World TAG)
The day has come. After weeks of anticipation, Xtrema's most anticipated event yet was about to begin. The crowd that filled the seats of the Hinata Tower Stadium was ten times bigger than any crowd on an normal Xtrema show. Sayuri Rogue herself sat at the commentary table with the announcer.
"Welcome, everyone, to Xtrema Against the World!" the announcer declared. "This is just the first night of an epic event! The female wrestling organization, Xtrema, has offered an open challenge to anyone who wishes to take on her roster! And sure enough, their challenge was answered! Joining me tonight is Sayuri Rogue, the founder and CEO of Xtrema and the creator of this epic event. Thanks for being here!"
"Of course." Sayuri said. "Those are my wrestlers."
"Well, I'm sure that we're going to have a great show!" the announcer cried out. "Now, for tonight only, we go through the tag team matches! Xtrema's teams of two, both official teams or just close friends, will be competing! There are twelve tag team matches awaiting us, so let's get started!"
*Scarlette and Clover vs Azumi and Death Carpenter*
Since this was an Xtrema event, the Xtrema wrestlers make their entrances first. And that's what Scarlette and Clover did. Scarlette reveled in the applause wearing her red jacket while Clover flexed her massive arms while wearing her TV Championship belt. They marched to the ring and posed for the crowd.
Once the red masked wrestler and Clover were done, the Heat logo appeared on the titantron. Suddenly, two female wrestlers showed up. One was a girl with short, black hair and a white two-piece outfit with tassels on. The other girl ore a head scarf, waistcoat, and cargo pants as black as her long, slim hair. She also carried a pipe over her shoulders as she made her way to the ring with her partner.
"Oh, boy!" the announcer declared. "This right here is quite a kickstart to the event! Representing Xtrema, we have Scarlette and Clover, who the public likes to call Crimson Waste!"
"Is that really our official team name here?" Clover asked her partner.
"Just go with it." Scarlette said.
"And representing Heat, we have its top competitor, Azumi, and their top heel, Death Carpenter! Now, before we begin, let's see what my fellow announcer has to say about it! Ms. Rogue, you have the floor."
"Well, this is certainly a good match. Scarlette was once Xtrema's TV Champion and her partner, Clover, is a rookie who just earned the same championship. They may not seem like it, but they actually make a good team. Then again, let's not discount the skillset of their opponents. Azumi is a highly-skilled wrestler and her partner, Death Carpenter, is one of the biggest heels in Japan."
"Couldn't agree more." The announcer said. "Right now, let's not delay this first match any longer. It looks like Scarlette and Azumi are starting off for their respective teams, so let's begin!"
DING-DING!
With Clover and Death Carpenter in their corners, their partners began Xtrema Against the World with a traditional collar-and-elbow tie-up. Scarlette gained the advantage when she pulled Azumi in for a side headlock and tossed her to the ground while keeping it on. Azumi managed to break out by launching a knee strike to the back of Scarlette's head.
Once she was free, Azumi got up and launched a kick at Scarlette. The masked wrestler tried to dodge it, but the knee grazed her face. Scarlette was disoriented until Azumi grabbed her face and dropped her in a facebuster. She then tried to roll Scarlette over for a pinfall.
1…
Scarlette kicked out very quickly and just as quickly got up. Azumi went to the ropes and attempted a clothesline. But Scarlette slipped behind her and hit her with a German suplex. The impact made Azumi roll over to get up on her knees, but Scarlette sent her back down with a kick to her chest. With the Heat ace down, Scarlette grabbed her legs and rolled her into a Boston crab. She had a tight grip and a solid center of gravity, so Azumi couldn't do much but try to endure the hold.
"Azumi, do you give up?" the referee asked. But Azumi shook her head no.
Scarlette held on tighter, but was then taken by surprise. While the referee had her head down to Azumi waiting for her submission, Death Carpenter went into the ring with her lead pipe in her hand. She swung it like a baseball bat right at Scarlette's face sending her off of Azumi. Death Carpenter returned to the apron with the referee none the wiser. After being free, Azumi needed time to recover, so she went and tagged her partner in.
"Just leave her to me." Death Carpenter said. "I'll have her red in places her dumb costume doesn't cover."
"Just don't get us disqualified." Azumi said. "In short, leave the pipe."
Death Carpenter rolled her eyes and groaned as she dropped her pipe and entered the ring. She then grabbed Scarlette by her head and repeatedly bashed it to the mat. The red masked wrestler grunted at each time her head made impact. Death Carpenter then lifted Scarlette up on her feet before locking in an abdominal stretch. But she wasn't done with that. To add onto the pain, she sank the fingers in her right hand onto Scarlette's ribs and the fingers in her left to her face. Scarlette screamed at the perilous predicament she was in.
"Scarlette, do you give up?" the referee asked.
"N.. N.. NO!" Scarlette refused with a great strain in her voice. Death Carpenter wrenched the hold one last time before letting go.
Death Carpenter lifted the sore Scarlette up to her feet and bent her down readying for a power bomb. However, Scarlette reversed the situation by lifting Death Carpenter up before sending her down with an Alabama slam. Finally getting a break, Scarlette moved on toward her corner where she tagged Clover in.
Death Carpenter rose on one knee before Clover grabbed her by the head and tossed her across the ring. The heel slid at the corner, where she attempted to lift herself up using the ropes. Clover charged forward and splashed her body on her opponent's body. After she fell, Clover covered Death Carpenter for the pin.
1… 2…
Death Carpenter made Clover break the pin by reaching her hand up to her face and raking her eyes. Clover yelled out as she got off of her opponent's body. With her distracted, Death Carpenter returned toher feet and sent a strong kick to the back of Clover's calf sending her down on one knee. Death Carpenter then went in front of Clover and hit her in the chest with repetitive kicks. The last kick was caught by Clover who then lifted Death Carpenter up overhead before slamming her back to the mat. She then covered her for the pin.
1… 2…
Azumi ran in and kicked Clover off to get her to break the pin. She returned to her corner just as Clover picked Death Carpenter up. She then lifted her from the ground, wrapped her arms around her, and squeezed her body in a powerful bearhug. Death Carpenter tried to break out, but she had no luck.
Eventually, Death Carpenter did what she could do. She grabbed ahold of Clover's head and pressured in her own squeeze in a vice grip. Her fingers were gripping, so Clover released her bearhug and fell to her knees. That's when Death Carpenter delivered a strong knee strike to her face. After that, Death Carpenter spat at Clover and tagged in her partner.
Azumi climbed up the top rope and gave praise to the fans who then gave it back. After that, she jumped up to land a fierce elbow drop on Clover.
"Clover, tag me in!" Scarlette cried out reaching her hand into the ring.
Clover heard her partner and rolled over trying to tag her in. She reached out, but before that could happen, Scarlette felt a tug at her foot. Death Carpenter grabbed her from ringside and pulled her down landing her chin onto the apron. Disoriented, Death Carpenter took advantage and Irish whipped her right to the barricade. The throw was so strong, it sent her crashing right through.
Back in the ring, Clover was shocked seeing her partner disappear. She gripped her fist and stood back up to confront the Heat champion. Clover charged forward and actually landed strong punches across Azumi's body. That's when she began to set up her finishing move, the double-handed uppercut. She balled up her hands and launched them upwards.
BAM!
The crowd gasped at what they saw, and it wasn't Clover's finisher landing. Azumi dodged it and countered with her strongest knee strike right at the TV Champion's face. A few drops of blood dripped out as she fell on her back. Azumi proceeded to cover Clover while hooking her leg.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"And that's the end of the match, everyone!" the announcer cried out. "Sayuri Rogue, the first match of the event, and Xtrema representatives have lost. Do you have any negative feelings about this outcome?"
"Well, I'm not proud of it, but I shouldn't be surprised. Azumi's a wrestling prodigy and Death Carpenter is the living embodiment of hardcore wrestling. If it was anyone else, I'd be worried about them beating the Crimson Waste. But if this is what it took, then I consider this a good start to the event. Besides, one loss doesn't mean Xtrema is doomed."
Death Carpenter went into the ring and took the win with Azumi. Scarlette returned to the ring to help her friend up. But before they left the ring, Azumi reached her hand out toward them.
"Just wanted to say good match." Azumi said.
Death Carpenter rolled her eyes. "Only you would congratulate losers."
Scarlette sighed and returned the handshake. "Thank you."
"Good luck with the rest of your time here." Azumi said as she left with the other girls.
*Atlantis Force vs the Super Pirates*
Oceanic and exotic music echoed from the entrance stage. Amazon Aqua and Calypso arrived on the stage. Calypso danced while Amazon Aqua flexed her muscles. The two of them made it to the ring and awaited their opponents.
The next girls who showed up wore very similar outfits. Both women had on sailor outfits with domino masks covering their eyes. They also had on long, braided hair. One woman had the Roman numeral 1 on her forehead along with white and blue stripes on her sailor top. The other had the Roman numeral 2 and black and red stripes. They played pirate music as they came into the ring. They looked on over toward the Atlantis Force team with mischievous smirks on their faces.
"Here we are at our next bout. Representing Xtrema, we have Amazon Aqua and Calypso, also known as Atlantis Force. And here are their opponents, the independent team of scallywags: the Super Pirates! Now, Ms. Rogue, what can you tell us about these tropical titans."
"Well, tropical is what Xtrema fans call Atlantis Force." Sayuri Rogue said. "Amazon Aqua and Calypso are roommates who compliment each other with their strength and skill respectively. As for the Super Pirates, they used to be known as the Pink Pirates, and they put the 'naughty' in nautical. Once they grew, they changed their looks and rebranded themselves, but they still had their underhanded tactics on their side. One thing's for sure, these teams are going to keep each other on their toes."
"Well, let's not keep their toes waiting any longer." The announcer said. "At the sound of the bell, it looks like Super Pirate 1 and Calypso will start the match for their respective teams."
DING-DING!
Calypso started off by showing off a few dance moves to please the crowd. Super Pirate 1 wasn't impressed, so she attempted a kick. However, one of Calypso's dance moves had her bend backward to dodge that kick. She then countered with a spin kick to One's back. She then spun herself on her hands to send three more kicks across One's face until she fell down. Calypso returned to her feet and posed for the crowd to applaud to.
Super Pirate 1 returned to her feet while Calypso was posing. She attempted a clothesline until Amazon Aqua foiled her plan.
"C, look out!"
At the sound of her partner's voice, Calypso spun a dance to get around Super Pirate 1's attack. One found her chance. She managed to grab Calypso's wrist and toss her to the ropes. Once she bounced back, Super Pirate One grabbed her to lift her up and slam her down on the mat. Super Pirate 1 then walked over to her corner and tagged Super Pirate 2 in.
Both of the Super Pirates brought Calypso up to her feet. Once she was up, Super Pirate 1 held onto her arms from behind while her partner sent punches to her face and stomach. The referee warned them against what they were doing, so Super Pirate 1 let go and returned to her corner. Meanwhile, Super Pirate 2 scooped Calypso up and brought her down with a power slam. She kept her there for a pin.
1… 2…
Calypso kicked herself out of the pin. Two then grabbed ahold of her legs locking in a figure four leglock. Calypso yelled out feeling her legs getting squeezed. She used her arms to crawl backwards. Thankfully, she was close enough to the corner to tag Amazon Aqua in.
With Aqua the legal one, she wasted no time getting into the ring and stomping on Super Pirate 2 making her let go. Calypso rolled out of the ring while Amazon Aqua flexed for the crowd to adore. Super Pirate 2 returned to her feet gritting her teeth in anger. She sent a kick right at Aqua's head, but the Queen of the Ocean raised her forearm to block it. She then pushed forward sending Super Pirate 2 rolling backwards.
Super Pirate 2 took a step back trying to distance herself from Amazon Aqua, but she stopped when her back hit the ropes. Aqua smirked and charged toward her. However, that was what Two wanted. Once Aqua was close enough, Two ducked and lowered the top rope sending Aqua flying out of control at ringside.
Amazon Aqua was attempting to stand back up, but once she did, she was met by a headscissor hold from behind. Super Pirate 2 wrapped her legs around her head while holding onto the ropes for leverage. The referee counted until Two let go. She and the ref debated whether or not it was a rope break, but while they did, Super Pirate 1 lifted Aqua up to her feet and sent her crashing to the corner post. She hit her head on it a few more times before Calypso ran to her and tackled her off her partner. Aqua was still disoriented, so Super Pirate 2 grabbed her arms and brought her back to the ring. She covered her for the pin while putting her foot on the middle rope for leverage.
1… 2…
Calypso broke the pin by flipping herself forward and kicking Super Pirate 2 off the middle rope. The red-and-black pirate tried to pin Aqua again, but at that point, Aqua had regained enough focus to break out before the ref could count.
Super Pirate 2 furiously picked Amazon Aqua up and put her at her team's corner. She tagged Super Pirate 1 in and they both sent kicks to Aqua until Two was forced to the apron. She wasn't done yet. She put her arms around Aqua's arms while her partner prepared for a dropkick. However, just as she got off her feet, Aqua broke out of Two's arms and dodged One making her kick her partner instead. Super Pirate 1 was so surprised, that Amazon Aqua got her chance to grab her from behind and throw her in a German suplex.
"Hey, A!" Calypso called out. "I think it's time!"
Amazon Aqua nodded before tossing Super Pirate 1 to the Atlantis Force corner. She sat One up to the top turnbuckle before tagging Calypso in. Calypso climbed up and held Super Pirate 1 in a guillotine hold while Amazon Aqua grabbed her wrists. It was like Calypso was setting up for her High Tide finisher while Amazon Aqua was setting up for her Tidal Wave. Sure enough, it worked. Amazon Aqua used her sheer strength to launch Super Pirate 1 to the mat while Calypso added in the force of her DDT. Once it connected, Calypso held Super Pirate 1 on the mat with a leg split pin.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"Did you see that?!" the announcer shouted in excitement. "That move they did?"
"Yes, I did." Sayuri Rogue said in amusement. "I've seen those two practice it at the gym ever since XAW was announced. They call it the High Tidal Wave, a combination of their moves."
"Well, it certainly did the trick! I wouldn't be surprised if these two would be Tag Team champions very soon!"
While Atlantis Force celebrated for their fans, Eris and Platinum Mask watched from the locker room. Eris smirked while her slave frowned.
"Now, now, princess. Don't pout." Eris said. "Let's just go and prove our strength."
"Yes, my goddess." Platinum Mask said blankly.
"That's a good pet." Eris said. "In fact, let's add some incentive. If we lose and my undefeated streak is broken, then I'll start blabbing who you are. The whole United Nations will be at your country's front lawn for this illegal action."
Platinum Mask wasn't surprised at the threat. Rather, she was furious. She hated being Eris' slave, but she didn't have a choice. She stood back up and heading out following her partner.
*The Pantheon vs Mighty Yukiko and Bomber Kishima*
Eris and Platinum Mask to the entrance stage. The Goddess of Chaos gave sexy poses to appease the crowd. Platinum Mask, however, looked as stoic as usual as she followed Eris to the ring. Eris wore her traditional purple helmet and cape with gold rims, and when she got in the ring, she removed them and kept them at ringside.
The next duo that got in the ring were highly anticipated by the crowd. One was a girl with long, pink hair, a blue one-piece that matched her wrist-cuffs and boots, white knee pads, and a small yellow jacket. She jumped energetically for the crowd. Her partner was an amazon-tall woman as big as Platinum Mask. She had short, purple, spiky hair, red and yellow two piece, white elbow pads, and red fingerless gloves. They made their way to the ring receiving the love and admiration from the crowd.
"And now, we are at our third match of the night!" the announcer declared. "Representing Xtrema, we have our undefeated Goddess of Chaos, Eris, and her mighty, mysterious follower, Platinum Mask! And their opponents are none other than representatives of NJWP, Mighty Yukiko and Bomber Kishima! Ms. Rogue, what do you think about this match-up?"
"Well, Eris alone is strong having an unbroken winning streak since day one. But ever since she somehow convinced Platinum Mask to join her, they've been an unstoppable force called the Pantheon. Then again, their partners are no pushovers either. Mighty Yukiko and Bomber Kishima have been known as the strongest tag team in NJWP. It's possible that they might be the ones to end Eris' streak tonight. Only one way to find out though."
"Good point." The announcer said. "So let's see these titans throw down!"
DING-DING!
"You take this one." Eris said to her partner as she got in her corner. Mighty Yukiko did the same. Soon enough, it was Platinum Mask and Bomber Kishima who faced each other to start the match.
Platinum Mask and Bomber Kishima met in the center of the ring and began the match by gripping each other's hands. Both of them pushed for the advantage, neither of them budged an inch. During the test of strength, Platinum Mask looked back and saw Eris tapping her wrist as if she was touching a watch.
Platinum Mask groaned and looked at her opponent. "Sorry about this, but I can't afford to lose."
"Wha…" Kishima began to ask. She was cut off by a knee that was shot right to her stomach. She tanked it, but Platinum Mask picked her up before slamming her down. She then landed an elbow drop on her stomach.
"Ooh! Ooh! Tag me in!" Eris cried out like an excited kid raising her hand up. Platinum Mask sighed before tagging her in.
Once Eris got in the ring, she noticed that Bomber Kishima was trying to stand back up. Naturally, she pushed her down onto her back with her foot and knelt down beside her. She licked her own palm and raised it up.
"Pink belly!" Eris yelled before slapping Kishima's stomach. The purple-haired wrestler gritted her teeth in response to the embarrassing sting. "Pink belly!" Eris slapped again. "Pink belly!" She did it one more time before standing back up. She headed to a neutral corner and climbed up to the top rope. She stood up and posed for the crowd. "How you like me now?"
Eris landed back to the mat only to get tackled to the corner by Bomber Kishima. Eris dropped to the ground in a sitting position where Kishima grabbed her by the ankles, lifted her up and slammed her down with an alley oop bomb. She then covered her for the pin.
1… 2…
Eris kicked out. Bomber Kishima picked her up and wrapped her arms around her in a bearhug. She squeezed hard making the Goddess of Chaos grit her teeth.
"How you like ME now?" Bomber Kishima asked.
Eris struggled to say something. "H… H… Harder, mommy."
"WHOA!" Bomber Kishima yelled out letting go of Eris. Immediately after release, Eris sent a strong slap across her opponent's face.
"Bomber, tag me!" Mighty Yukiko called out reaching for her hand. Bomber turned to Eris who simply nodded and proceeded to tag Yukiko in.
"Well, well, well. You must be the Losing Warrior." Eris snickered.
Mighty Yukiko replied, "It's Blazing Warrior."
"I know what I said." Eris yelled.
The Goddess of Chaos ran forward for a lariat. However, Yukiko ducked under and tripped Eris making her land on the middle rope. She then hit her with a tiger feint kick before leaping off the rope for a splash. Unfortunately, Eris managed to roll out of the way making Mighty Yukiko drop onto the mat. Eris then got on top of Yukiko locking in her famous Chaos Lock. She gripped tightly making Yukiko grunt.
"Yukiko, do you give up?" the referee asked.
"NO!" Mighty Yukiko yelled out as soon as she began crawling over to the ropes. Eris held on tighter, but Yukiko kept on crawling. Eventually, she managed to grip her hand on the bottom rope. The referee was almost done with her count before Eris released the Blazing Warrior. While Mighty Yukiko took a second to breathe, Eris headed to her corner and tagged Platinum Mask in.
"Finish her." Eris said.
Platinum Mask focused her attention on Mighty Yukiko who struggled up to her feet. The princess approached her, but was attacked with Yukiko struck her repeatedly with her forearm. She hit her five times before Platinum Mask struck with her own attack. Yukiko managed to duck underneath and jump on Platinum Mask's back putting her in a sleeper hold.
Platinum Mask struggled to get Yukiko off. She took steps left and right to avoid falling over. Finally, she ran backwards to the nearest corner. Mighty Yukiko saw it coming and released her at the last second.
Platinum Mask was stunned after hitting the corner. Mighty Yukiko ran back to her and jumped up landing herself right at her shoulders. That's when she began to punch her in the head multiple times. That however lead to Platinum Mask catching her by surprise. She grabbed Mighty Yukiko's head, ran a couple of steps, and landed on her knees hitting the Blazing Warrior with a muscle buster. With Yukiko stunned on the mat, Platinum Mask grabbed her legs and spun her around with her Platinum Force giant swing. They spun around for a few seconds before Platinum Mask let go. Mighty Yukiko crashed to the mat.
Platinum Mask put her foot on top of Mighty Yukiko's body for the pin. Meanwhile, Bomber Kishima was about to run right in. Unfortunately, right as she went through the ropes, Eris stopped her by tripping her over. Not only that, but Eris unlaced Bomber Kishima's boot slipping them off of her feet. Once the boot was off, the referee went to count.
1… 2… 3!
DING-DING!
"And that's the match! Once again, Eris keeps up her undefeated streak with her tag team victory with Platinum Mask! Not only that, but Eris seems to have gained a little souvenir! One day, will Bomber Kishima try to recover her old boot and will Mighty Yukiko try to make up for her loss?"
"Who can say?" Sayuri Rogue asked. "But I do know that as strong as Yukiko and Kishima are, Eris and Platinum Mask are going to be in for quite a challenge for each of them when they face off against their singles opponents. Well, let's look more into the next match!"
*Xtrema Shorts*
Chibi Monica Everly graced the stage blowing kisses to the applauding crowd. She sat down right next to a Chibi version of Willow Powell, who filed her nails during the whole thing.
"Welcome to Xtrema Shorts! I'm Monica Everly, and first of all, we'd like to apologize for this late update. Epiclot214 isn't used to doing chapters that only covered tag matches, so they had to write them twice as long. That, and they had to deal with some weather that made them feel a bit lazy. If any of our future chapters come a little late, we apologize in advance.
"Now, as for today, we'll be going through our interview with the Apocalypse Ring star and Xtrema superstar, Willow Powell! Welcome back, Willow."
"Call me either Ms. Powell or Willow Powell. Only my friends call me Willow, which makes me happy I don't have friends."
"Right. Well, you know the drill."
"Oui, oui. You ask me some standard questions followed by some personal ones asked by our readers, who we all know is just Awesome ax10. Seriously, we've all seen ze number of views our story gets. Why is he ze only one who asks us anyzing?"
"Well, actually, we've got something new." Chibi Monica said. "First, we've got some new standard questions to ask all our characters. And second, you've got other personal questions besides from Awesome ax10. These questions are from MasamuneNoirPrime."
Chibi Willow raised an eyebrow. "Really? Well, what are we waiting for. Give me ze questions."
"Right. First of all… Who was your debut opponent when you first joined Xtrema?"
"Ms. Rogue has seen fit to pit me against Kyoko Natsumi. Said a couple of stars like us would be quite an attraction for ze crowd. Personally, I wouldn't call a stage-hogging bodybuilder like her a star. Anyway, she beat me, but only because no one told moi about her log-size limbs."
"What's it like facing Kaito?"
"Facing him? Zat weak worm was practically ze world's best stress ball. He was my second opponent on Xtrema and I was still upset over losing to Natsumi. Zankfully, he managed to help me relieve my stress."
"What do you think of Sayuri Rogue?"
"Not really my idea for a boss. Should have made moi ze ace, but I digress. In any case, I'll play ball wiz her until she leaves her desk. Hopefully, she names moi as her successor."
"Who's the easiest opponent you've ever faced other than Kaito?"
"Sakura Hagiwara easily. Just a handful of moves at my disposal, and she gave up nearly instantly. Just wait until I get my second shot at her when it comes to my singles match."
"Okay. Now, we move on the personal questions. First, from Awesome ax10, when you promoted movies, did you ever get into hot water like censorship?"
"If I did, zen it was most likely zat my lawyers took care of zat."
"Did the actor you hurt sue you? And how did the trial go?"
"Sue me? Hardly. I told her zat if she tried to take me to court, I'd counter sue and guarantee zat my million-dollar lawyers would win. Zat harlot would rather be shamed zan bankrupt."
"Why do you think Queen Bee is a brat?"
"You're kidding, right? She's so overrated and gets more credit zan she deserves. I mean, just one month after she joined, she was given a title shot against Nyx which she won. After zat, she was offered promotion deals zat she didn't deserve. And all because she's got a stinger ze size of Paris."
"Right. Now, for the personal questions by MasamuneNoirPrime. We all know about your movie, Apocalypse Ring which made you switch career paths. Can you tell us of any other movies you acted in prior to that? If so, what were they about?"
"I've already answered zat question ze last time I was interviewed back at Chapter 58. But to answer you, my first movie acting experience was a low-budget, generic love film called Le Jour D'Amour. It's about zese ten different people looking for true love in one day. Let's just say ze DVD was only allowed on ze shelves for two months. I only stayed around because one of ze male actors was hot. Anyway, my next movie was called Reign, a direct-to-DVD film about an alien invasion. I played ze role of the overlord's strategist. Zero Tune came next, and zat was when I started to gain some notoriety. It was about a deaf serial killer and I played his girlfriend. The Dark Side of Earth was a good one. It was about an eclipse that drove half of ze Earth insane splitting them into seven tribes, each representing a different deadly sin. I naturally played ze leader of the Lust tribe. Finally, I got my first lead role at Apocalypse Ring, which was about a dystopian warrior named Maria Mercedes, who had to fight and take over a pro wrestling arena in order to survive. It got a lot more praise zan you'd think."
"Can you name any high profile movie directors you have worked with?"
"Well, most of my former directors didn't last long after my films were made. It had nothing to do with me, mind you. Although, I can tell you ze name of my Apocalypse Ring director, Jules Dubois. He's actually ze only director I was able to tolerate."
