Ultimate Catfighter 2: Rachel Apache vs Queen Samantha

It's that time again; it's time for the Ultimate Catfigher Tournament. This year, 20 girls will be drafted into two teams of 10 and compete in the tournament, while training and living together. Because there are 20 girls instead of 16, the last 8 girls picked (last 4 pick of each team) will fight in 4 matches just to make the final 16, but all 20 will live and train until the finale, regardless of who loses.

Justice
5'5" 120 lbs, long fiery gold dreadlocks, green eyes, honey skinned African American from Washington, DC
Story Reference: "Poetic Justice"
Who is She?: Justice is the young poet who became a professional wrestler after watching Gemma Rox win the Ultimate Catfighter finale. Justice chose to enter a sport of violence due to being surrounded by violence and watching her brother get murdered. Justice grew up in the ghettoes of Washington, DC and has been competing on smaller circuits, looking for her big break and to make her deceased grandmother and brother proud. She's a strong, passionate woman who demands respect and takes herself seriously, but has a sweet and contagious spirit. Justice's wrestling and striking skills have improved greatly since her debut.
In Her Own Words: I am eager, eager because I feel this is my destiny, eager because I will let no one get the best of me, eager because anyone who tries to test me will see. I am eager, eager because the weight of nineteen other girls who come from all over the world will try to deny me this prize, but they will discover I am more fighter then lover and this destiny is mine to realize.

Wildcat
6'4" 220 lbs, long stringy whitish blonde hair, blue eyes, Pomona, California
Story Reference: "Wildcat" (still working on this one)
Who is she?: Wildcat was the most popular wrestler in one of OPW's competitor federations, but once her manager betrayed her and turned her in for steroid abuse, Wildcat, who's character borrowed heavily from Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior in moves, ring attire, and speeches about staying clean, did some time in jail. With her reputation shattered, she resorted to alcohol and got into many barroom brawls. Wildcat is now 50 years old, is still very much fit and prone to mood swings and drunken rants, but, much like Mickey Rourke's character in "The Wrestler," or old Beowulf, Wildcat is looking for one more big shot and is training her body for this opportunity. Wildcat is a very brutal fighter who doesn't care if she permanently injures her opponents. She only cares about the glory.
In Her Own Words: I need this and none of these youngling cxnts are gonna stop me getting it either. I've been to the top of the mountain; I've been jet flying, womanizing, whatever. No one is gonna stop me from getting back to the top. I'm the oldest bitch here, but I'm also the biggest and the baddest. I'll snap one of these little bitches like a twig.

Hitomi/The White Tiger
5'6" 125 lbs, long orange/red hair, blue eyes, Chinese/American
Story Reference: "The White Tiger"
Who is She?: Hitomi struggles with something similar to what W.E.B. DuBois defined for African Americans as "double consciousness" or "twoness." As a biracial woman, she struggles with dual identities and feels rejected by both her American heritage and her Chinese one. Hitomi is a master of Gold Hand Kempo, the style of fighting her father created and as The White Tiger, the second most popular female wrestler in Japan. After the tsunami, what Hitomi believed was a simple visit to the USA to fulfill some dates with OPW became a long stay. Hitomi has entered this tournament to earn her place in this new world of fighting. Her biggest rival, Black Widow, was already signed to OPW.
In Her Own Words: I only wish to compete and to prove myself. I will honor myself and I will honor my opponents. But I will not be disrespected by anyone. I have been on a mission of self-discovery and it has rewarded me and punished me all the same. I will do my best.

Victoria
5'10" 140 lbs (so she says), short black hair, blue eyes, German/American from who knows where
Story Reference: "Bully Beatdown"
Who is She?: Vicious Victoria was the bully who ultimately was beat down. Victoria repeatedly physically and sexually assaulted young Alice and after being defeated by Marie B., surprised Marie and beat her senseless until Alice found the courage to nearly kill Victoria, instead leaving the black haired sadist tied up for Jessika. Victoria has been subjected to Jessika's training methods and is now more dangerous than ever as Jessika's latest apprentice. It should be noted that Jessika has had success with training fighters with mean streaks and a tendency towards sexual aggression... Kayla, Seka, and Dawn were all trained by Jessika.
In Her Own Words: Ha ha ha ha... I'm coming here for more than just a dumb ass fighter tourney. I'm coming to fuck these bitches and get me some new girlfriends and slaves. I've been broken in by Jessika and trained to destroy. I mean, you're telling me I get to live in a house with 19 other pussies and fight them too? That's a fucking dream cum true... with a capital "cum" Ha Ha!!

Girl Wrestler Joanne
5'6" 120 lbs, shoulder length slightly curly blonde hair, hazel eyes, German/Lebanese by way of Scranton, Pennsylvania and Trenton, New Jersey
Story Reference: "Bad Girl Diaries: Girl Wrestler Joanne" and "The Devil Made Me Do It"
Who is She?: One of the most popular and most requested fighters here at FCFs, Joanne comes from a sisterhood of wrestlers, but may be destined to be the greatest of that group. The Queen of Facesitting, Joanne combines striking, wrestling, scissor hold submissions, sexfighting and face-sitting into a very unique style that gives her pleasure and punishes her opponents. Joanne has a lot of potential and is willing to admit that she is still a work in progress, just like the others girls she'll be competing against, but also points out that Gemma Rox was a work in progress too... and she won Ultimate Catfighter last season.
In Her Own Words: I am totally ready for this to start! I'm here with my bestie, Laurie Breeze, but I'm focused and determined to win the whole thing. It'll be nice to beat up on Shawna, Praggy, and Katrina, and this Bully Brit bitch too!

Lucy Thunder
6' 180 lbs, long straight black hair, blue eyes, from Greenwich, Connecticut
Story Reference: "The Strong One" and "Triumph"
Who is She?: Lucy Thunder is the Xena looking wrestler who mourned the loss of her father and ultimately, fought his new wife at the gathering after his funeral in "The Strong One." Lucy grew up in very rich, but was a tomboy and left to try and make it on her own after being rejected by her father. Lucy is the strong and silent type, but has a big time temper, especially when others aren't being treated fairly. She has entered the tournament after her best friend and tag team partner, Lara Lightening, was injured in a car accident and is on her way to a full recovery. Lucy dedicates her performance to her partner, the only woman who can keep Lucy's temper and emotions under control. With Lara not around, how will Lucy deal with nineeen other girls with varying attitudes, some of them with reputations for starting trouble? Lucy is a seasoned fighter and has had success in both wrestling and mixed martial arts.
In Her Own Words: I'm doing this for Lara. I was going to wait for her to get well and go on as a tag team, but she told me to enter this tournament. I'm the type of person, I keep to myself, but some of these girls just make me sick. They are too full of themselves. You've got vicious girls, and snobby girls, and girls who haven't done anything in the fighting world, but act like they're 13 time champions. I can't say I'm not wanting to punch somebody in the face right about now.

Brittany "Bully Brit" Bullworth
5'1" 99 lbs, long blonde hair, blue eyes, from Providence, Rhode Island now living in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Story Reference: "Bully Brit"
Who is She?: Brittany was the young lady who took advantage of Marie B.'s popularity surge to start her own series of internet videos, going out, picking fights, and beating up girls much larger than she. But ultimately, she wound up getting beaten up by a woman who she mocked at the gym for being overweight. Brittany is a black belt in karate and is extremely fast, with her striking and with her mouth. She's improved greatly since losing that fight and is entering the Ultimate Catfighter house with the intentions of winning the tournament and skyrocketing to even bigger fame.
In Her Own Words: Fuck these bitches!! All of them are garbage and worthless. I'm a black belt in karate and any bitch who wants to try me can bring it on!! Fuck Girl Wrestler Joanne. Bitch, you keep on getting your ass kicked, you suck!! Fuck Laurie Breeze... why are you here, bitch?! Look, all you bitches can kiss my ass!

Elizabeth "Baby Liz" Taylor-Lakota
5'9" 140 lbs, long black hair, hazel eyes, biracial White/Lakota Sioux Indian from Des Moines, Iowa now living in the Badlands
Story Reference: "Bad Girl Diaries: Baby Liz"
Who is She?: The ever popular and memorable Baby Liz has gone through many struggles in life, with depression, a very difficult drug addiction and a struggle to find her own identity as a person who's been taught by her late mother to hate her Sioux heritage, but is living at a Sioux reservation. Liz fought Winona, one of the reservation's young, highly intelligent, spiritual women, but I believe the highlight fight of her story was her loss to Laurie Breeze. With Winona's help, Liz got clean, but by her own admission, she does do drugs before her fights to give her an extra rush. Liz hasn't fought that difficult a level of competition, but is known enough to enter the house. Questions about her mental state and work ethic are in play. Not to mention, Liz is yet another in a list of natural troublemakers entering the house and the tournament.
In Her Own Words: People have been saying that I'm not a hard worker, but I'm undefeated. Laurie Breeze winning a fight against me was a fluke and I don't really give a shit if people don't believe me. I was a different person and she wouldn't be able to beat me in the cage or the ring. When I win this thing, when I'm the Ultimate fucking Catfighter, nobody's going to be saying anything about how I am. And I'm off drugs too. ;)

Wilma "The Geek Freak" Watson
5'8" 135 lbs, shoulder length brown pigtails, brown eyes, from Portland, Oregon, now living in Seattle, Washington
Story Reference: "The Toughest Girl in the World"
Who is She?: Mandy Maxim may have been the focus in this story, but Wilma's presence was definitely felt as the new attractive, but chronically geeky and inappropriate friend of Nathanial, the man Mandy fell in love with. Mandy considered herself to be the best fighter, but Wilma, an accomplished student of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, a submissions machine, beat Mandy up and submitted her in front of Nathanial. While Mandy was interested in entering this tournament, she got engaged to Nathanial and is pursuing other things. However, Wilma has gone on to become somewhat famous in the MMA world and is entering the house, bringing her terrible sense of humor and passion for bringing up disgusting and depressing topics at wrong times with her.
In Her Own Words: Well... I don't really know what to say. I hope the house is clean because there's that Malaysian bacteria that killed like, three thousand people and like, even if you wash your hands, you can still get it. I'm the champion at 135 lbs and I'm not worried about anybody else in the house because they're all kinda, you know, lame. I have a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and my striking is better than any of these girls. I just hope they don't bleed on me, because last week, there was this guy who bled on this girl and she got like, these mothball bubbles of puss on her face and it was really gross, you know.

Laurie Breeze
5'1" 111 lbs, shoulder length curly brown hair, blue eyes, biracial White/Lakota Indian from the Badlands
Story Reference: "Bad Girl Diaries: Baby Liz," "Bad Girl Diaries: Girl Wrestler Joanne," and "The Devil Made Me Do It"
Who is She?: Laurie is one of the nicest and sweetest people you can meet, but by her own admission, she's a trash-talker and asked to be a part of this tournament. Laurie is best friends with Girl Wrestler Joanne and is learning more about wrestling from her bestie; however, it is possible that Laurie and Joanne will find themselves on different teams and may end up fighting each other. Laurie is an unknown to the fighting world, but she is a cult favorite of those who watched her come from behind defeat of Baby Liz on video sharing sites around the world. Don't underestimate Laurie's heart or her willingness to learn. While Laurie has expressed no interest in professional wrestling and doesn't know that much about MMA, she also admits that she's got to learn those skills in order to be successful, as trouble tends to find her... or the other way around. This scenario does some a bit familiar. Short, friendly fighter with an attitude who is mentored by a sexy fighting upstart with a passion for passion in the ring... yup; Laurie and Marie B. do have something in common, and Marie did pretty well for herself in the fighting world.
In Her Own Words: I'm here with my bestie, Joanne, but I'm serious about this and I'm going to give it a shot. People think that because I said I'm not into wrestling or mma that I'm just treating this like it's a joke, but that's not true. This is a dangerous sport and I'm not the most experienced girl, so I'm going to train that much harder and don't be surprised if I'm the winner in the end. I've got a lot of heart and I'm going to fight to win. I'm just saying...

Dana "The Girlie Grim Reaper" Black
5'8" 140 lbs, shoulder length dyed black hair, silver contacts, from Los Angeles, California
Story Reference: "Christmas Carol"
Who is She?: Dana Black is one of the top 140 lb cage fighters in the world now, but she is known here as the Salvation Army worker who stuck up for her friend Ray after Ray was being harassed by the Target Team Leader from Hell, Carol. Dana has drawn comparisons to Gina Carano because of her pretty looks and hard strikes, but unlike Gina, Dana has a ground game and doesn't have issues making weight. Dana has become very, very popular, but remains down to earth. She has entered this tournament and intends to win it; she brings a fair attitude that walks on both the gothic and girlie sides.
In Her Own Words: I'm not the talker that some of the other girls are because I'm really trying to fly under the radar. I am one of the more experienced girls here, but I'm not here to get into any outside of the cage drama. I'm here to fight and if I make some friends and help some folks along the way, that'll work too.

Katrina
5'7" 150 lbs, long nearly black brown hair, brown eyes, light skinned African American from Alexandria, Louisiana now in Houston, Texas.
Story Reference: "Bad Girl Diaries: Katrina Beats U"
Who is She?: Katrina already has defeated Girl Wrestler Joanne, pounding her stomach and humbling her, forcing the usually cocky Joanne to admit defeat on the boards for all to see. Katrina is one of the most dominant wrestlers and fighters in the South's smaller promotions and gave Marie B. a horrible beating when the little blonde came to the promotion to sharpen up her skills after an injury. Katrina smashing of Marie has put her in the zone as a very dangerous fighter with a take no BS attitude and a hotheaded temper. Katrina loves to fight, but she loves to win and like several of the other women entering the Ultimate Catfighter house, she loves to punish and humiliate her opponents.
In Her Own Words: If anybody fucks with me or my stuff, I'm going to fuck them up before we even get in the cage. I'm a thick Black woman from the south and to be where I've been and do what I've done, you have to be tough. They don't make women like me anymore and all these bitches are in trouble. Nuff said.

Lucky Star
5'5" 135 lbs, long curly dark brown hair with light brown highlights, blue eyes, from Detroit, Michigan, now living in Fort Worth, Texas
Story Reference: "Becky's Getting Married: Fuck The World!!"
Who is She?: Lucky Star didn't have any lines in the story, but the "Material Girl version of Madonna" looking brunette did get a lot of attention from Becky, who was determined to bury her former tag team partner and ultimately was defeated and sent out of FTW by Gemma Rox. Lucky Star is known for her cocky but sexy personality, and for a rough but exciting ring style that borrows from Shawn Michaels, Rob Van Dam, and Ravishing Rick Rude. There's a heavy attractive factor behind Lucky, who does seem to be lucky, just like the attraction to Madonna. Lucky's mouth is sure to piss some of the other girls off, as she never seems to feel as though she's in any danger.
In Her Own Words: I know I'm beautiful and I will use it to my advantage. I am a much better fighter than any of these girls, but the best strategy to winning this tournament as to not become a target. You will have to fight, no doubt, but if you can use your natural sexiness and abilities to your advantage, you'll have an easy trip to the finals. I'll show you how it's done.

Dynamite Quinn
5'1" 120 lbs, very short platinum colored hair, silvery blue contacts, light brown skinned woman with two Egyptian parents, but born in London, England
Story Reference: "The Happy Punch" and "The Mighty Quinn"
Who is She?: Dynamite Quinn is the reigning Olympic World Champion in the 121 lb class of Freestyle Wrestling and Fighting (remember, in my universe, women's wrestling, mma, and other fight sports is just as popular as the men's, if not more). Quinn did some jail time after attacking a prissy classmate who was bullying her, but she had a different experience from that of Shadow in "Faith No More" or Wildcat in "Wildcat." Lucky learned how to fight in jail and became very popular and loved. She's a true story of a girl who went from the slums of London to fame and some fortune. But she carries a great deal of bitterness with her as well, though that bitterness motivates her more than anything else. She enters the house on a roll and ready to fight.
In Her Own Words: Well, bloody fooking well! I'm gonna keep it short and bloody sweet. Dynamite comes in small packages. I've been to jail for assault and I've won a gold medal in fighting. I don't think anybody wants to fook with me.

Kathy Oasis
5'10" 140 lbs, long auburn hair, light aqua blue eyes, tanned skinned Caucasian American from Sunnydale, California. Looks exactly like Kathy Ireland.
Story Reference: "Writer's Block" and "The Search for Gemma Rox"
Who is She?: Kathy is the formerly undefeated fighter who broke away from a very protective promoter who had her fighting tomato cans and has beens in Japan. Known for her excellent kickboxing skills, her swimsuit model looks, friendly and somewhat "happy all the time" personality, as well as her ability to come back and win fights after taking an early beating, Kathy had a bright future in the sport and got a tune up fight against Tyler "The Silver Fox." Unfortunately, Tyler knocked Kathy out viciously in a matter of seconds and if you've read "The Search for Gemma Rox" or even "Hell In a Cell," you know how dangerous Tyler is. Kathy is entering the Ultimate Catfighter house hoping to better herself and win the tournament.
In Her Own Words: Oh!! It is so good to be a part of this tournament! I am looking forward to meeting and training with the other 19 fighters and I really hope that I win. It would be sooooooo special if I won, even if I don't want to hurt anyone too badly. I am not a vicious person or a vicious fighter. Fighting is a sport to me, so I can fight without being mean to people. Wish me luck!

Praggy
5'6" 120 lbs (curvy hourglass, but fit build), long black hair, brown eyes, extremely long black hair. From India.
Story Reference: "The Devil Made Me Do It"
Who is She?: Praggy is one of the most popular members of FCFs, but also, one of its most challenged. Praggy is proficient in body punching; she's got a far better than average ground and grappling game thanks to her training in the Indian fighting styles of of Kushti wrestling and Kalari fighting, and she's the champion of her boyfriend's wrestling promotion. Praggy has won some and lost some, but recently, she's been involved in a long war of words with Girl Wrestler Joanne and when Joanne's bestie, Laurie Breeze, was drawn into the conflict, Praggy found herself in a cage against Laurie. Praggy beat Laurie in a vicious back and forth fight, using her wrestling skills to get the much smaller Laurie on her back and pound her out. Praggy loves to humiliate her opponents, is very frustrated with the lack of respect she has been shown, and is looking forward to being in this house.
In Her Own Words: No one has been as disrespected as I have been leading up to this tournament. Girl Wrestler Joanne and Laurie Breeze talked so much shit about me, but I humiliated Joanne and beat Laurie to a bloody pulp. Both of those bitches will be in this tournament and I cannot wait to laugh in their faces and humiliate them again, or anyone who gets in my way.

Nikky Smalls
5'6" 140 lbs, shoulder length blackish brown hair, brown eyes, African American by way of Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Story Reference: "Allison vs. Siena and Nikky vs. Rachel," "Nikky Smalls vs. Allison Payne," and various OPW stories.
Who is She?: A pretty big surprise that Nikky Smalls is joining the cast of "Ultimate Catfighter" because Nikky is already well accomplished and well established. In fact, Nikky Smalls has two distinct connections to Rachel Apache and Samantha, the two fighters who will be coaching on the show. Nikky Smalls is the first woman to ever fairly beat Rachel Apache in a sanctioned match. Nikky Smalls is also the woman who taught Samantha the Philly Shell defense that she uses to frustrate the hell out of her opponents. Nikky is a three time Gold Medalist in boxing and a three time World Champion in boxing. Nikky lost her 140 lb title after being knocked down four times against Allison Payne back in 2005, and now, Nikky wants to expand her knowledge and make it big in the world of female fighting outside of the huge boxing star she already is. Nikky is the Sugar Ray Leonard of the women's boxing world; she's extremely fast with her feet and her punches and has a million dollar smile and a cool personality. Nikky has been coached by her father for her entire career. Her father got her into boxing to keep her off the streets and out of several of Milwaukee's female gangs. How will Nikky do in the sport of mixed martial arts and how will she do when she's being coached by the she beat or the one she taught?
In Her Own Words: I'm happy to be here and I'm going to train hard and listen to my coach. I have the biggest target on my back because I am a three time gold medalist and a three time world champion in boxing. I am the most famous person on this roster and I'm sure beating me would really be a feather in these girls' hats, so that's why I'll have to train and learn these new techniques like never before. This is a new experience for me; I've done some training with my friend Glory, but I'm still learning the other aspects of wrestling and mixed martial arts. Hopefully, it'll all go well, but I'm not going to pretend that I'm super great at this. I am a fighter, though, and I take those instincts with me.


Shawna
5'5" 120 lbs, shoulder length black hair with reddish highlights, brown eyes, from Osaka Japan, now living in Seattle, Washington
Story Reference: "The Devil Made Me Do It"
Who is She?: Shawna has bragged quite a bit about her defeat of Girl Wrestler Joanne and is not afraid to state her dislike for Joanne and Laurie Breeze. Shawna is very proficient in aikido and judo, but has no problems hauling off and punching, kicking, or kneeing her opponents below the belt or in the chest and enjoying every moment of it. Shawna says that she hates happy people, hates smiling faces (with the exception of her own), hates blondes, and intends to inflict a great deal of pain and humiliation on anyone she faces. She really has no allegiances in the house and is coming to win.
In Her Own Words: I am not this honor and love girl, first of all. I like to beat my opponents; I will fight dirty and I love to humiliate girls who try to fight me... just ask Joanne. So, if you were thinking that because I'm Asian, you're getting another White Tiger or Shinobi, you're wrong. I'm good at what I do and what I do is beat your ass until you cry and run away naked, but with enough bruises on your body that you don't look naked at all.

Rumor Winfield
5'9" 140 lbs, long nearly black hair, blue eyes from Pretoria, South Africa
Story Reference: "Rumor Has It"
Who Is She?: Rumor Winfield is the very cocky but very good fighter who was inspired watching fellow South African Kayla on television. Rumor trained by wrestling and fighting naked in a dirt pit and went as far as winning a silver medal in the first ever Female Fighting games in Cairo, Egypt. Rumor is not a fan of listening to authority and has been even vilified in her own country after she beat legendary fighter, Sheba The Great. Rumor is determined to win Ultimate Catfighter and has stated that she doesn't care who's in the house with her. She has guaranteed victory. Rumor is a great striker and has exceptional skills in submissions and wrestling, but many say she has an attitude problem and her inability to listen to the advice of others will cost her. Rumor, like Kayla, has no problem going for the crotch either.
In Her Own Words: I guaranteed that I would win and I'm not backing away from it. I do believe I am the best fighter here by far and there isn't anybody on the list who impresses me or worries me. I see a bunch of girls with flaws, not only in their skills, but they're either distracted with finding themselves or they're distracted with some dumb feud with other girls or they're distracted by something else. I'm here to fight and people have talked shit about me, but I don't really care. I have a silver medal that I earned by FIGHTING. People who wrestled in bingo halls or sex shops shouldn't be telling me anything.

"Perfect 10" Porsche Green
5'10" 150 lbs, long reddish brown hair, green eyes, biracial American girl (Black father, White mother) from Hope, Arkansas, now living in Dallas, Texas
Story Reference: "Perfect 10"
Who Is She?: Porsche tried to hide her biracial heritage and pass for White, but found herself mistreated and discriminated against anyway. But after abandoning her father and losing her mother to an illness, Porsche set out to understand who she is as a biracial woman. After being beaten up in Jena, Louisiana by three racists while doing a story, Porsche gave up her career of journalism, and in a strange twist, became a fighter. Porsche is one of the most popular fighters in the south now; she is undefeated, but she really has little experience in fighting and is still learning. Porsche is the nicest and most down to earth person you could meet, but uses her in ring persona "Perfect 10," to come off as a cocky fan favorite.  Porsche is looking to improve her skills and prove herself by winning this tournament, but she will certainly have a huge target on her back because of her popularity and inexperience.
In Her Own Words: All the other girls may be good; they may be pretty; they may be tall or short or strong or whatever... but you know what I've got on them that they can never be? I'm PERFECT. I've accomplished more in a short period of time than they've accomplished their entire careers. I've beaten every fighter I've faced and now, I'm one of the most popular fighters in the world. Who can compete with that? I know I have a target on my back because of my popularity, but I'm not worried about it. I'm going to train; I'm going to fight; I'm going to win... isn't it obvious?

And there you have it... coming up next: last year's Ultimate Catfighter winner, Gemma Rox, will give her opinions of each of the girls on the roster. And later, Rachel and Samantha will make their picks for the two teams and the girls will get situated in their house. What will happen when all 20 girls are together for the first time, considering all the jabs they've taken at each other and the fights that have taken place before the show even started?

As my character was last years winner of the Ultimate Catfighter series Howard Kindly asked me to write up a review giving Gemma Rox's opinion on the new list of fighters fighting for her throne... the following is the interview! I hope you enjoy!


after Gemma's Recovery interview... (see Samantha vs Gemma Rox for that story)


Gemma's interview with Frankie about her fight with Sam just finished and now the camera crew start to pack up their gear

Siena - Hang on a minute guys... How you feeling Gemma?

Gemma - you know... pretty good right now! This was a good idea! Seeing all the clips on ESPN was really starting to irk me... if I have to watch myself get power bombed off the top rope down to the arena floor then see their smug reporters beam "Is this the end of Gemma Rox?" one more time I swear I'd scream! Hopefully they'll change the record now

Siena - that's great! So.... As you're feeling so good how about we shoot your talking head for the Ultimate Catfighter roster?

Katherine - Are you kidding me?!?!?! Didn't you hear a damn word I said earlier? Nothing too stressful! Nothing too heavy! ONE interview!!! In and out!!!

Katherine squares off against Siena the way only a woman with no clue about the professional fighting world wood... Frankie looks stunned but Gemma's pretty calm. She knows Siena is much to smart to beat up one of her most expensive investments and she knows Katherine isn't capable of froming a punch. This is just power play.... Who can come off on top and so far? Through the last 2 months of Gemma's recovery? Dr Katherine Kelburg has ALWAYS come out on top

Siena - hey... it took me a month to get you to ok this damn interview! WHICH is a bit rich seeming as I'M the boss here!

Katherine - I'm a contractor... you don't own ME Siena... NOBODY does! You want me to go? The NFL phone me every week pleading for me to jump ship! Is that what you want?

She throws that down as her ace in the hole... her Germanic lilt clipped and sharp yet with a softness that belies her formality and prim nature

Siena - Ok!... ok... I get your point... Katherine the great is her own boss... I get it! But do me a favour here... the shows starting in a few weeks! And it's part of Gemma's contract to do the follow up PR.. If she doesn't? well... that's a breech of contract

Gemma can't help but smile here. She knows exactly what Siena's doing... she knows Siena spotted the closeness between them and now she's using that closeness to get what she wants... using Katherine's natural protective instinct to her advantage... 'sneaky little bitch' Gemma smiles to herself... maybe this time Katherine the Great is going to finish second?

Katherine - you... you wouldn't... you couldn't!

Siena - hey! It's not me honey! I may be the face but we have an awful lot of board members who only care about green... now I NEED to make sure they never forget Gemma's worth! I can't do that if she's nowhere to be seen... you want to help Gemma? You need to let her breath a little... make her own decisions... what do you say Gem? You up for a little more shooting?

Both sets of eyes turn to Gemma... Each willing her to take their side...

Gemma - Oh crap... don't you put this on me! No way I'm stepping in front of THAT bus!

Siena - never took you for a chicken Rox... afraid you'll upset your girlfriend here?

Katherine - Wha... what did you say? I.... that..... That's.... that's a totally unacceptable accusation! You have no right...

Katherine starts but is soon cut off

Siena - oh relax would you? It's just a figure of speech! Jeez! You Swiss are so up tight

Katherine - I... I'm German

Katharine retorts flustered and wrong footed

Siena - whatever. All I'm saying is calm down! It's just a turn of phrase honey... I know you'd never get involved with a patient! You're probably the most professional person I ever met to do a stupid thing like that

It takes all the will in the world for Siena to hold back the smile she's got inside... Katherine has turned bright red and has no clue what to say while Gemma just holds her head in her hands knowing Siena's never going to drop this until she gets what she wants...

Gemma - OK!!! Enough already... GOD! it's like watching divorced parents bicker over their kid! Look... I think it would help to get it out of the way.... Do the Ultimate catfight interviews and get ready for the first show, Hell... that even gives me a goal! A timeframe of a few weeks to complete my recovery, you always say having a goal is important, right Katherine? But how about we do it after lunch? Get a little rest before work takes over, Care to eat with us Frankie?

Frankie - I'd be honoured

Sienna - then it's settled! Food then shoots! You see? That wasn't so hard no was it Katherine the Great?

Katherine - don't call me that...

Gemma - ok... lets all shut the hell up and eat! I need a steak bad...

The meal goes along pleasantly enough, Katherine tolerating Sienna's little digs and pokes at her, all done out of humour of course. Sienna knows she's got a good thing with Katherine.

Siena - Gem's... every time I've ever eaten with you, you have steak... don't you ever eat anything else?

Gemma - truth is I hate steak

Siena - what? Well why the fuck do you eat it then?

Katherine - she has a serious Iron deficiency

Siena - You're shitting me...

Gemma - no, it's true., always had it. I used to black out all the time. Had no energy, spent most days crashed out on the sofa until I got diagnosed. Even after that I still suffer.

Siena - well I gotta say that spun me... I've seen you take some hits that would floor most buildings and you still find the energy to get back up. I thought you were a freak if I'm honest... now you're telling me you did all that with no energy?

Gemma - well... not exactly. In a fight? It's pure adrenaline. It's like I'm running of instinct. I'm not trained from childhood like Rachel or yourself.

Siena pulls a twisted face as Rachel's name is mentioned... the issues between those two women run pretty deep...

Gemma - but in that ring? It's like I burn up everything I have and a lot I don't. Quite often after a fight I'll go back to the locker-room and pass out, the only time that doesn't happen is when the adrenaline is still pumping though me... after I beat Dawn last year? I don't even remember getting to bed. It's all a blur I was so spent

Siena - so why don't you just take pills or something?

Gemma - I do. But nutritional release is different to vitamin release. Steak and spinach? It'll release slowly and constantly over a few hours. Keeps me level.

Siena - you really are a freak Rox... you know that?

Gemma - thank boss

Siena - and why do you always call me Boss?

Gemma - It's you name on my checks boss. I could call you a whole lot worse if you like...

Siena - good point. Boss will do just fine

Katherine actually cracks a little smile, maybe the first time she ever has in Siena's company

After a lovely meal Frankie and his crew set up again and they get ready for the interviews. Gemma gets out with a wince and walks over to the chair

Katherine - Gemma please!

Gemma - it's fine Katherine... don't worry! My backs feeling really good honey. I think we can do away with the wheelchair altogether now.

Katherine looks on with concern but respects Gemma's decision

Gemma - ok Frankie how's this going to go?

Frankie - Lets just roll wit hit! I'll name a fighter and you give us your view, sound good?

Gemma - Ready when you are

Frankie - Thank you for joining us on the Ultimate Catfighter preview show Gemma.

Gemma - Thank you for having me

Frankie - now we all know you won it last year so I'm sure the there are a whole ot of fighting fans out there who are keen to know what your inside view would be. After all you lived in the house... you've seen the pressures first hand so lets go through the roster... How about we start with Justice?

Gemma - I... uh... I like her. She's got a real soul about her, one that's born out of darkness sure, that girls seen some rough shit but she's come through it, you know what I mean? I don't know if I could live through what she has... If you get through that kind of hurt it forges you, makes you stronger. It's going to take a tough girl to take her out.

Frankie - ok, Gemma says she's one to watch ! What about Wildcat?

Gemma - This girl is tough... I mean like psycho. She's a killer. A stone cold break you in half and leave you on the mat brute. Not only that, she wouldn't give a shit about breaking you either. She ends your career? No big deal, just as long as she gets one step higher up the mountian. I'm kinda hoping someone puts that old warhorse down for good. She's got no business in there with bright young stars. That being said if Rachel gets the first choice? Well... I'd have her high on my list of picks, who knows... maybe Rachel can bring out the fighter and put down the beast?

Frankie - Strong words... no doubt she'll have a come back for that... ok, onto Hitomi or 'The White Tiger' as she's also known

Gemma - this girl excited me. She's got some ferocious moves and isn't afraid to go all out. Sure there are elements to her game that need work, but she has that spark... that ability to pull out a hail mary out of nowhere and make the entire stadium scream! What this space people... The White Tiger is going to hunt. The only worry I have for her? House life. You have a lot of strong personalities... stronger than hers if I'm honest and it's easy to have your head wrecked in there...

Frankie - You heard it here first, if she can get over the house she's going to fly! So onto Victoria

Gemma - no

Frankie - er.... Wha... what?

Gemma - I'm not talking about her.

Frankie - well... we kind of have to Gemma...

Gemma - Look! Jessika is a fucking meanace! Seinna shouldn't let her NEAR an OPW event!!! Just look at her track record? She's trained Kayla - the dirtiest bitch in the game and then Seka.... A complete fucking PSYCHOPATH! A bitch that's not even in it for the glory! She just wants to kill people! And now this? She's been aloud to train ANOTHER psychopath? Fuck this shit!!! Victoria had NO PLACE in this fucking competition! None what so ever!

Frankie - ok..... Moving on swiftly how about Joanne the GrlWrestler?

Gemma - She's an odd one.. We... er..... We had a few run in's and well... I like her, but she doesn't like me too much I think. He skills? She can do a lot. She can play it sexual and grind you out through orgasmic assualts that leave you gasping and fucked out of energy, she can wrestle you and put some serious hurt on you to... but her main strength? Knocking you out... she's a sleeper queen. She can pull out a smother or a sleeper from nowhere and you just KNOW when she's got you, she's loving every second. But... when she loses? She loses bad. Real bad. There's no inbetween. She'll either fuck you up or fuck it up. I hope she does well but she needs to work on consistency to survive in there

Frankie - some interesting views there, right. On to Lucy Thunder

Gemma - Hahaha! This girl? I think I'm going to like... cxnts like Victoria try that bullying shit in the house? She'll flat out murder them! And what's great about her? She's good enough to do it. She can fight, she has fought. She's not a new blood like I was, she's got the skill. But maybe that rage will overcome her, I don't know. She needs to ballence it all out. Now I know that's hypocritical coming from me but there it is. Learn from my mistakes Lucy

Frankie - interesting... so the house could be her signature strength and her weakness? OK... next up is Brittany "Bully Brit" Bullworth

Gemma - If her fists were as fast as her mouth she'd be a killer. As it stands she's a scrub

Frankie - A scrub? She's a black belt in Karate!

Gemma - I know 13 year olds who are black belts in Karate! Truth is the art of combat has evolved since 1980... Mr Miyagi isn't a force to be reckoned with any more. If she wants to be the force she CLAMS to be, she needs to work on her ground game, her BJJ, her wrestling... and her shitty attitude.

Frankie - Very strong words there. Ok.. What about Baby-Liz?

Gemma - Great... another fucking attitude in the house... look... maybe she has some skill. Maybe she can throw a few punches. But really... what the fuck has she got? I mean people slammed me and Jonica for our lack of experience but we PROVED we were good enough! Hell... I won the fucking thing and Joni's the FTW Champion right now! And that didn't come out of thin air... we fought two OPW champions in one of the dirtiest, brutal show downs possible. Baby-Liz? She lost to Laurie Breeze and STILL goes around saying she's undefeated. Grow up little baby... a loss is a loss. Accept it and move on, maybe then I'll respect you

Frankie - Well you're sure showing some favouritism towards the good girls. Some of the bad girls in this line up are taking some heat it seems!  What about Wilma "The Geek Freak" Watson?

Gemma - Well she's certainly confident. Dangerous too. The girls got some harsh MMA skills... her striking? Formidable, her Ju Jitsu? Lethal. She could go all the way... that is unless the girls in the house don't get sick of her and lock her in a cupboard...

Frankie - something tells me that's a possibility... now onto another girl you're familiar with... Laurie Breeze. I understand you two had a confrontation in a locked room once.

Gemma - yeah... bitch had beef. She walks up to me, a key in her hand and says "two of us walk in, one of us walks out" and yeah... it was brutal. But I walked out. With her bikini to haha! I doubt she's forgiven me but hey... don't start shit if you can't finish shit. All that said though she's came on a long way since we tangled. She's not the same fighter. I hear she's became a sweet lil thing. All charm and smiles but a fuck tonne of heart. She might not know a back breaker from a boston crab but that heart of hers is a massive boon for her.

Frankie - wow... a nice girl you don't like?

Gemma - I didn't say I didn't like her, we've just had a run in that's all... it's nothing personal. As soon as I walked out of that room it was history for me, I'm just saying she might well hold a grudge

Frankie - ok, onto the "Girly-Grimreaper" Dana Black

Gemma - she's good. REAL good. Her skill alone could see her go to the Semi's maybe even win the whole thing! But her downside? Her ignorance. Now I'm not talking about the fighting side. She's keen and sharp there, I'm talking about the house. She thinks she can keep her head down and stay clean? There's constantly mud getting thrown in that environment and to think you can just duck it all is foolish... admirable for sure! I respect her, but it's foolish. The mouthy bitches will see this and be all up in her. I'm interested just as much by how she deals with the house as I am with how she does in the cage

Frankie - you make it sound like the house is the devil's playground

Gemma - I think that for a reason honey... a damn good reason.

Frankie - well lets move onto Katrina

Gemma - Girl is tough! She doesn't fuck around and she REALLY Doesn't take any shit! I think of all the girls there? She'll handle the house bull shit the best. I can't see ANYONe dumb enough to fuck with her in the house... well... maybe Wildcat. Something about 2 tough bad bitches makes me think they're gonna have a clash. Maybe I'm wrong but if those two get it on? Bloods gonna flow

Frankie - but do you think she can win the tournament?

Gemma - well... truth is I don't know how good her technique is. A mean scowl and a bad attitude will only get you so far. Not every fighter you face will be a brawler. Girls like Jo she may well steam roller but girls like Wilma? Might make her tap in under a minute.

Frankie - Hmmm... interesting. Ok, onto Lucky Star

Gemma - Well... I hear that in the wrestling federation she was in Becky was trying to buty her out of fear she'd get overshadowed byt Lucky... well, I beat becky and now this is Lucky Star's chance to shine. Now, whether that cocky attitude is real or just a persona is hard to know. But the thing with ring personas... you can't keep it up 24/7. In thst house we'll see the REAL Lucky Star. I just hope she's not a complete twat

Frankie - a Complete?.... Well.. Ok...... how about Dynamite Quinn? What are your views on her?

Gemma - Girls had a tough time and made the best of it. can't really beat on a girl for that. I respect the hell out of her abilities and her midframe. She's likable but not in that suck up kinda 'PLEASE LIKE ME' begging sort of way. She's just 'like me of fuck off' and you just can't help but like her! Haha! Plus it would be fun to see another Brit win this thing

Frankie - next up we have Kathy Oasis? She took a heavy loss to Tyler "the silver fox" but has a massive heart. Opinions?

Gemma just sits there, her jaw wide open for a few moments....

Gemma - she.... I'm sorry... who did she lose too?

Frankie "Urm... a girl called Tyler. Lots of tattoo's, British I think. Startling Silver hair... you haven't seen that fight?

Gemma - no... can't say I have

Turning to an assistant off camera

Gemma - could you... could you get me a copy of that fight honey?

Assistant - urm... sure thing Gemma

Silence hangs in the room for a long while, Gemma's head in the clouds with a look that seems to mix deep concern with building rage

Frankie - Urm... Gemma?

Gemma - Shit! Sorry... yeah, Kathy. Good fighter but she was sheltered for too long. I hope beyond hope she proves me wrong and takes some names, Nobody would be a more noble and proud winner than her but truth is? I'm not sure she can hang with the big dogs in that roster.

Frankie - I'm a little surprised... I thought an experienced fighter would have more of a chance but you're the fighter, not me. Next we have Praggy

Gemma - Well she's certainly out to prove something. She fucked up Laurie and humiliated Joanne yet still they talk trash about her. Maybe they've learnt from their mistakes and can take her now? The Laurie fight was a lot closer than it should have been... a fighter with Praggy's unique Kushti Wrestling experience should have really dominated a fighter like Laurie but I think she'll go as far as she gets lucky draws.

Frankie - what do you mean

Gemma - if she gets someone like Laurie, maybe she'll put her down agians and move onto the next round... but against Wildcat or the Whit Tiger? I can't see her winning to be honest

Frankie - The nest up is a big surprise to all - Nikki Smalls

Gemma - She's gonna win

Frankie - wha... what?

Gemma - She's gonna win. Enough said. Nobody can match her experience. She's been top of the world and has lost none of that drive. With a good wrestling coach behind her, that lightning speed and massive striking ability. People can say her ground game is sorely lacking well fuck that! You think she's been sitting at home waiting for this to start? No babes... a fighter like that would have been trainign the moment the idea came into her head. She's a world champion. Who can match that? She's going to win.

Frankie - I;m not sure I completely agree with you but I'm loving the prospect of the media storm that's going to hit after that haha! I know 19 girls who'll violently disagree with you

Gemma - fuck them. They know where to find me

Frankie - well put, now we have Shawna next

Gemma - Bitch has an attitude... BUT... she can back it up... to a degree. I don't think she;s as good as she says she is but hey. Time will tell. You want my opinion? If she gets a weak pick she'll get through the first round hard! I can see her humiliating a lesser girl but as soon as she comes up against real skill her shits gonna stink and she'll be put on her arse

Frankie - well I know Shawna's going to want words with you after that, how about Rumor Winfield?

Gemma - Well she certainly thinks she can win. Personally I have mixed feelings. I'm not denying she's got skills but who has she really fought? So you idolise Kayla? Just means you're a fucking idiot... now... you beat Kayla? Then I'll take notice. Bitch is just another girl with a mouth

Frankie - and finally we have "Perfect 10" Porche Green

Gemma - I like this girl! She's not the bitch she plays in the ring, she;s really sweet! But she's got no skill. She's never been tested in a real outfit. Then again... that's why girls enter this competition... but this year? The competition is just too good. As mych as it pains me to say it I can't see her getting past the first round.

Frankie - well I think that's about it! So you heard it here first folks... Nikki Smalls is the favourite in the ruling champs eyes but keep a keen eye on Wilma, The White Tiger and Wildcat among others... Will she be right? We all know anything can happen in the cage, tune in soon to find out!

Kayla - the dirtiest bitch in the game ...

Hmm, I'll take that as a compliment - cumming from the 'cleanest' bitch in the game; GEMMA! Tee hee!  ::) ;D ;) :D

Love ya, G!  :-*

Hugs
Kayla
P.S. Looks like an interesting line-up: at least that's what the RUMOR is! LOL!  ;D :P

Wow!

Great job, Gemma!! The draftings will be coming up soon. I'm thankful for the support I get for this thread. I would never have finished the first one without the support of the wonderful people here because it is going to be a long one, just like last time.

Quote from: Gemma Rox on September 15, 2011, 03:06:05 AM
As my character was last years winner of the Ultimate Catfighter series Howard Kindly asked me to write up a review giving Gemma Rox's opinion on the new list of fighters fighting for her throne... the following is the interview! I hope you enjoy!


after Gemma's Recovery interview... (see Samantha vs Gemma Rox for that story)


Gemma's interview with Frankie about her fight with Sam just finished and now the camera crew start to pack up their gear

Siena - Hang on a minute guys... How you feeling Gemma?

Gemma - you know... pretty good right now! This was a good idea! Seeing all the clips on ESPN was really starting to irk me... if I have to watch myself get power bombed off the top rope down to the arena floor then see their smug reporters beam "Is this the end of Gemma Rox?" one more time I swear I'd scream! Hopefully they'll change the record now

Siena - that's great! So.... As you're feeling so good how about we shoot your talking head for the Ultimate Catfighter roster?



Frankie - now onto another girl you're familiar with... Laurie Breeze. I understand you two had a confrontation in a locked room once.

Gemma - yeah... bitch had beef. She walks up to me, a key in her hand and says "two of us walk in, one of us walks out" and yeah... it was brutal. But I walked out. With her bikini to haha! I doubt she's forgiven me but hey... don't start shit if you can't finish shit. All that said though she's came on a long way since we tangled. She's not the same fighter. I hear she's became a sweet lil thing. All charm and smiles but a fuck tonne of heart. She might not know a back breaker from a boston crab but that heart of hers is a massive boon for her.

Frankie - wow... a nice girl you don't like?

Gemma - I didn't say I didn't like her, we've just had a run in that's all... it's nothing personal. As soon as I walked out of that room it was history for me, I'm just saying she might well hold a grudge

x G x

I was asked my opinion of Gemma's comments about me.....

Well, Gemma is right about a lot of what she said about me. Yes, we had a brutal war inside that locked room....'n yes she walked out with my bikini. Wait. She didn't 'walk' out. She 'limped' out. She beat me but she knew she was in a fight. Do I hold a grudge? She took my damn bikini after she beat me. What do you think?

She also said I changed after that fight, that I became a 'sweet lil thing'. That's not altogether true. That's the way I was before the fight, that's the way I am now, that's the way I'll always be. I'm me. I'm not gonna change who I am.

The other fighters 'n the coaches 'n probably the fans think being nice is a weakness. But ... BUT ... when I'm in a fight, I'm NOT nice. I'm not that 'sweet lil thing'. I fight to the very end. Keep knocking me down, as long as I have strength I'll keep getting back up again. I'll fight NHB, I'll throw the rule book out the window, I'll do whatever I have to do. Sure, I'll smile 'n flatter the other girls in the house....maybe I'm just playing with them, messing with their minds, lulling them into a false sense of security. I want them to underestimate me, I honestly don't mind if I'm the last girl picked.

Gemma said that I have a ton of heart? Wow....Coming from her, that's like the 'ultimate' compliment. I have to have heart. It wasn't easy being the shortest girl in the schoolyard, I've dealt with bullies my whole life. I got my ass kicked by those heifers more times than I care to remember but I never ran away, I never backed down. Cowards run away. I earned their respect by standing up to them. I have Lakota Sioux blood in me, I'm fighting for my ancestors 'n my heritage, running away is not an option.

Look, I know I'm a longshot....I think someone called me a 'dark horse'. I know I don't know a 'backbreaker' from a 'Boston crab'.... hell, I've never been to Boston, how would I? I'd be worried if this was Ultimate Wrestler. It's not. It's Ultimate Catfighter 2. I'm a catfighter, I never said I was a wrestler. Wrestling is over rated. I don't need to know that shit.

News flash: I beat Baby Liz. I gave Praggy a fight she won't forget for a while. I survived a war with Gemma Rox. So yeah. I belong in the house. Just sayin'!

Laurie xoxo

18 girls are standing with their bags and gear with the Hollywood sign in the background. Conspicuous by their absences are Baby Liz and Victoria. Many of the girls present are a good distance away from one another, others are moving nervously from side to side... there's a lot of tension in the air, as three black limousines pull up.

(Praggy- I'm ready. All those people have said so much shit about me. I saw Joanne and Laurie and they smiled at me... I just shook my head in disgust.)

(Dynamite- I really couldn't give a fook about any of these girls. I am here to win.)

(White Tiger/Hitomi- I am here to prove myself and many of these ladies look tense. I am very nervous at this point, but I have trained my life for this and I must prevail.)

(Shawna- I see all the usual suspects... Joanne, Laurie Breeze, the stereotype White Tiger, the blonde bitches like Brittany and smiley faced Kathy. I want to beat them all down.)

(Dynamite- When the limos pulled up, I knew it was them. Bout fooking time.)

The 5'5" 140 lb OPW owner and the most controversial and influential figure in the history of female fighting, Siena Blaze, with her Marilyn Monroe meets Dick Tracy-era Madonna looks, her curly short whitish blonde hair and crystal blue eyes, steps out of the middle limo wearing a blood red buttoned up blouse, a pair of black pants, and black heels. Out of the first limo, the 5'9" 144 lb Samantha, with her long curly red hair, aqua green eyes, and honey skin steps out next, smiling broadly in a fiery red armless blouse, emerald green pants, and open toed red heels. With her is OPW CEO and Siena's estranged daughter, the 5'7" 140 lb Christina Munoz, with her shoulder length curly black hair and blue eyes. Christina has the usual "don't fuck with me" look on her face. Out of the last limo, Gemma Rox limps in a red tank top, some blue jeans and some black boots. The next person out of the limo is Rachel Apache. The 5'11" 150 lb Rachel has her shin long wavy black hair flowing in the wind, her midnight blue eyes are covered by sunglasses with very dark purple lenses, and she's wearing a long white silk button up shirt, a pair of white pants and white shoes. Rachel has a stoic expression on her face as Samantha looks her way and smiles. There's absolute silence as the girls look at the coaches.

Siena- Well shit, I expected to roll up on you guys and see a battle royal breaking out. Okay, we're gonna skip the bullshit and get right down to it. Welcome to Ultimate Catfighter. You're wondering where Baby Liz and Victoria are, I'll tell you. Victoria spent the night in jail after a brawl with some fans, and Baby Liz is running late. I'm going to act like I like this, but anyone who's followed my career knows I was in my share of brawls and jails and I wasn't exactly the most punctual pugilist either.

(Laurie- Baby Liz is late? What a surprise. She is probably getting high.)

Siena- Your coaches for this season, in case you've been living under a rock, are Rachel Apache and Samantha. While I haven't exactly had the best relationship with these two ha ha, and we know they hate each other--

Samantha- I don't hate anybody. They hate me.

Siena- Ahem. They will be your coaches and they will take care of you. I don't pick people to coach this show who can't do the job, so I think you guys will be okay with them.

Christina- Just like I said last year, none of you are worth a shit and you haven't done anything if it's all led you to right here. You need this, so you better fucking get your shit together and train like you want it. I don't like people fucking with my money and when you fuck around, that's what you're doing. I don't really give a fuck who you like and who you don't like. I don't care if you fight in that house or fuck one another or whatever the fuck you plan on doing.

(Lucky Star- I'm looking at these other girls... I am definitely seeing some possibilities for fucking in the house. I will get laid in this house.)

(Kathy- Christina was going over the rules and I didn't really understand her. She started out saying we should work hard, then she said that she didn't care what we did.)

Christina- When you get in the cage, you better bring the A game, or you will get fucked up. This year, we've got 20 girls, so eight of you are going to have to fight five times if you're going to win this, instead of four.

Siena- We're going to get right on with the draft. Rachel won the coin toss and she has decided to pick first. That means Samantha will pick the first fight once we get to 16 girls. We'll all get together and determine the matches for the eight of you who have to fight in the prelim round. Okay, Ms. Apache, it's time to make your pick.

Rachel steps forward and removes her sunglasses.

(Samantha- And I thought I was a drama queen...)

Rachel- White Tiger.

(Samantha- What a big surprise! Rachel takes White Tiger with the first pick. So? I knew that was going to happen a month ago and I don't think she's the best girl here, so I was happy to see that happen.)

(Rumor- White Tiger? Who? I don't know why she would waste a pick like that. Just because a girl can dress up like a pussy cat, throw some punches and kicks and do some flips doesn't make her a fighter.)

Samantha- I'm taking Dana.

(Dana- I was hoping to end up on Rachel's team, but I'm fine with being on Team Sam. I'm not looking for drama unless it's in the cage.)

(Rumor- The "Girlie Grim Reaper?" Is that the stupidest name in the sport or what?)

(Samantha- Dana is a solid fighter and like I said, I'm here to pick girls who I feel are going to win. She was probably high on Rachel's list, but do I give a fuck? No.)

Gemma whispers something in Rachel's ear and the tall Persian's eyes narrow.

Rachel- Nikky Smalls.

(Bully Brit- What a stupid pick!! They say Rachel is the smartest and greatest fighter of all time, but how can she pick a girl who's just a boxer?)

(Samantha- Gemma fucking Rox!! Thank you!! Thank you, Gemma!! Thank you for talking Rachel into taking Nikky with the second pick. I like Nikky; she's helped me with my defense a lot and she's going to be an asset to that team because she's a good person and like having another trainer on the team. I would've drafted her too, but not that early.)

Samantha- Dynamite Quinn.

(Samantha- I wanted this girl from the beginning. And people may say, "but she's just 5'1" 120 lbs!" Yeah, but she's strong as shit and she's won a gold medal. She's not someone who has to be taught much; she's very polished and she's got the attitude where she's not here for any bullshit.)

(Wildcat- THAT little girl was picked over ME? I'm the biggest one in the fucking house... maybe that I brought a beer with me had something to do with it. Fuck it.)

Siena- Your pick, Rach--

Rachel- I know that.

Christina- Then make your fucking pick!

Rachel- Speak to me in that fashion again, and you'll be picking yourself off the ground... again.

Christina moves towards Rachel, but Samantha blocks her and whispers in her ear. Siena covers her mouth and turns her head as she laughs.

Rachel- Wilma.

(Brittany/Bully Brit- The Geek Freak? Really? Really? I'm a black belt in karate and Rachel picked the Geek Freak?)

(Rachel- Wilma is an odd one. But she holds a legitimate title at 135 lbs, she has a black belt in karate, as well as a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I don't think her personality is anything that we can't handle. I wanted Dana, but once she was picked, I decided on Wilma.)

Samantha- Katrina.

(Samantha- Yeah, I decided to go safe here. I have some concerns about this girl's ego vs. her work ethic, because she's got this belief that she's invincible and I don't know how that's going to translate into training, but I do know that she beat the little Canadian blonde bitch and she beat Joanne very easily. Out of the "bad girls," Katrina is the one who Rachel was most likely to take and I wanted her, so I knew I had to get her.)

Rachel- Lucy Thunder.

(Rachel- Lucy has a lot of potential. I studied each of these ladies from what I could find, and I am impressed with Lucy's work. I believe we can mold her into an even better fighter than she is now.)

(Rumor- I hated that Lucy Thunder was picked ahead of me. She talked mad shit about me and I'm not happy at all. I want to kick her ass.)

Samantha- (smiling) Rumor.

(Bully Brit- And now, a bitch named Rumor?)

(Gemma- Good. Now we get to train the girl who's going to shut that bitch up. A perfect pair, Samantha and Rumor... matching mouths.)

(Samantha- Kayla and I have had issues in the past... but, Rumor's a pretty good fighter and she's got a chip on her shoulder and the desire to do well. She probably hates me, but I'm not why she's here. I was always going to pick her, but I wanted to let her stew a bit and light a fire under her ass.)

Siena- Eight picks down.

Rachel- Wildcat.

(Rachel- I don't like this pick. I am being honest. Gemma Rox wanted this... woman... on the team because of her strength. She had better be right. I know all about Wildcat and her steroid enhanced strength. She challenged me while in prison. I wanted no part of her then, and I want no part of her now.)

(Samantha- I thought Wildcat was going to be my problem, but when Rachel picked her, I was glad and sad at the same time. Wildcat is really strong and a big woman with no fear. The problem is that she's not easy to control. I mean, she showed up here with a six pack of Bud and a cigar.)

(Joanne- Wildcat is 6'4" and she's 50 years old. She was looking at my ass the whole time and I totally didn't like it!)

Samantha- Justice.

(Samantha- I thought Rachel would've grabbed her, but she didn't. Justice is young and undefeated and she's got a vibe that I really like. Plus, she was my safest bet at this point. Shawna was still out there, but you've got to do more than beat Joanne.)

Rachel- Praggy.

(Rachel- What can I say about Praggy? I see a lot of potential, but not a lot of honor and not a lot of heart. I took Praggy because she is the most polished of the remaining girls and the least damaged as well.)

Samantha- Shawna.

(Samantha- So, I had the last pick before we started picking girls who would fight in the extra round or however the hell that was going to work. I knew I had to pick somebody tough. Shawna was really my only option because despite her big wins coming over Joanne, we scouted her and she's got a lot of skills. She wants to win and that works for my "no bullshit needed" campaign.)

Siena- And there you have it, kids. Now, the coaches, Christina and I will talk about the eight of you that remain and who will be fighting for a spot in the tournament.

After about 10 minutes, they return.

Siena- I like making matches and that took less time than I thought it would. We have the four matchups and let's go ahead and get the announced so that you guys can go and see where you'll be living.

Perfect 10 vs. Victoria

Siena- Rachel will be coaching Perfect 10 Porsche Green while Samantha will be coaching Victoria.

(Siena- I like this one. Brutal, vicious Victoria against the undefeated but unproven Ms. Green. Victoria may be brutal, but she seems to get off on pain and likes to pick on shorter girls, which Porsche is not. Porsche has the swagger, but she doesn't really have much of a moves arsenal, yet she's beaten every girl she's faced. Pressure makes diamonds, and we'll find out something about both these girls)

Grl Wrestler Joanne vs. Kathy Oasis

Siena- Samantha, you've got Joanne; Rachel will be training Kathy.

(Siena- Joanne was on a winning streak, but she's really fallen off. The girl has gotten beaten by three of the girls here, but still, she's here and she claims she's here to win. Kathy, I had very high hopes for her. She's the comeback kid, she starts off slow, but she can pull off victories because she's got a hell of a will... and then, Tyler knocked her the fuck out before she could start her comeback. I made this match because I have to wonder about the psychological effects the losses have had on both women and whoever wins may be revitalized.)

Laurie vs. Bully Brit

Siena- Rachel, you've got Laurie Breeze and Sam has Bully Brit.

(Samantha- So... I've got a girl who's idolized Kayla, a girl who was trained by Jessika, and a girl who got her gimmick from Marie B... oh, I'm just so fucking lucky, huh?)

(Siena- This was the easiest match to make, though we thought about having a Liz and Laurie rematch. Bully Brit said that she wanted to punch Laurie Breeze in the face and now, she gets to do it. Laurie has been yapping and feels like she needs to prove herself while Brit is acting like she's the best, but she got beat by a fat girl at her gym. Laurie has taken an interest in the world of female fighting and Brit is going to bring it and try to take Laurie out. Plus, they're both 5'1"... so speed kills.)

Lucky Star vs. Baby Liz

Siena- Rachel, you'll be getting Lucky Star; Samantha, you've got Baby Liz.

(Samantha- I wanted Lucky Star. Liz is a drug addict and her nickname is "Lazy Liz.")

(Rachel- I would've taken Liz over the other one. I do not like the way this Lucky Star uses her sexuality during her matches. It disgusts me.)

(Gemma- I'm glad we got Lucky instead of Liz, no pun intended. We don't need any babies on this team.)

(Siena- So, in Lucky Star, you've got a girl who's been held back, but has the talent and the star power. However, she's very much about putting on a show and rubbing her crotch on her opponent. Then, you've got Baby Liz, who didn't even show up for this because she's probably somewhere doing dope. But when she's fighting and motivated, she's really, really good. Both these girls need to get their heads out of the clouds and a fight against each other may bring that out. None of the girls in the bottom eight should be surprised that they're there. It makes perfect sense to me.)

Siena- Ladies, there are two buses that are coming to pick you up and bring you to your new home. Your coaches will specify when you'll train. Good luck to all of you.

Christina- Don't fuck it up.

Team Rachel
Wildcat
Porsche "Perfect 10" Green
Hitomi aka The White Tiger
Praggy
Laurie Breeze
Kathy Oasis
Lucy Thunder
Wilma "The Geek Freak" Watson
Nikky Smalls
Lucky Star

Team Samantha
Dana "The Girlie Grim Reaper" Black
Dynamite Quinn
Justice
Rumor Winfield
Shawna
Baby Liz Taylor-Lakota
Katrina
Brittany "Bully Brit" Bullworth
Girl Wrestler Joanne
Victoria

NEXT: The ladies move into their new home... and all hell breaks loose very quickly as old feuds are rekindled and new feuds erupt. Both teams begin their training as Rachel and Samantha introduce the girls to their all-star teams of trainers, but will some of the girls be willing to even be trained. And what happens when Baby Liz and Victoria arrive at the house? And the first preliminary fight happens when "Perfect 10" Porsche Green takes on the vicious rape fighter turned Jessika's apprentice, Victoria! Who will be the Ultimate Catfighter?

Walking to the gym...

Gemma - Are you sure this is the right move?

Rachel - It was your idea

Gemma - Exactly....

Rachel - you don't think you're up for it?

Gemma - you know I am!

Rachel - I know you're 'up for it'... you always are. That's your problem. What I mean is... are you PHYSICALLY up for it? Can your body deliver what your mouth is promising?

Gemma - I think so. I mean... I've been sparing and I've been training hard... taken some heavy knocks too but nothing's came close to stopping me getting back up...

Rachel - ok then. Now all we need is for one of them to bad mouth you

Gemma - haha yeah.... Something tells me that's not going to be a problem...

Rachel and Gemma make their way into the large gymnasium which currently houses the 10 fighters Rachel has been tasked with training on the current series of Ultimate Catfighter. Rachel strides is as she strides into every room. With confidence, an assured step and the knowledge that she's the best fighter in the room. She's dressed in a purple tracksuit with her wrestling gear under it. Gemma on the other hand hobbles in looking like a bus just hit her... she's in some blood red lycra shorts and a matching lycra top. The surgical scars on her lower back are still a deep pinkish colour and her left hand is taped up. Her right however isn't...

Rachel - Welcome all. Now as you know we've got a lot of work ahead of us here... some of you are hardened fighters and even world renowned champions... but despite all your different backgrounds you're all here to prove something. You're here to prove you can stand toe to toe with the best in the world... no matter the style, no matter the weight, no matter the odds... you want to prove you belong. Now I can help you with this. I can make you all better fighters, better warriors. But as much as we're going to work together as a team, marching forward in a united front, only one of you will win.

She pauses to let this all sink in for a moment

Rachel - but rest assured when I say this... one of YOU will win. Team Samantha? They don't count for naught. You're training under me now. And I do not train losers.

This last line comes across less s a statement and more as a threat... an unspoken vow that anyone who doesn't pull their weight will not be tolerated

Rachel - Now, I'd like to introduce one of my Trainers who'll help me shape you into the champions you so wish to be. Last years Champion... Gemma Rox

The 5'8" 135lb submission machine Wilma "The Geek Freak" Watson put's her hand up with an odd expression on her face. Confusion mixed with doubt...

Rachel - what is it Watson?

Wilma - Look... I don't want to doubt your methods right from the get go or anything? But... ur.... wouldn't it be better if.... Well...... what I mean to say is... if your trainers weren't so.... Urm...

Praggy - Crippled?

Praggy shouts out forcing a stunted chuckle from the few of the girls

Gemma - Crippled? That what you think huh girl?

Praggy - well... yeah!

She answers cocky and aloof

Praggy - look... I know you won last year and all but this is a new year, a new breed of fighter! The sports always evolving and well... maybe you're not the best person to be teaching us? I mean... what are you gonna do? Show us how to take a beat down?

Lucky Star chuckles aloud at that last line while Gemma raises an eyebrow

Gemma - Honey... if you could take as many hits as Lucky's taken cocks you'd be a world champion by now...

Lucky scowls at Gemma, the air in the room changing drastically

Gemma - What? You think because you're taller than me, you're bigger than me that makes you better than me?

Praggy - You're just lucky I don't beat on cripples or I'd show you how wrong you are about me... You're all hype Rox. You fluked the win last year and you got your ass kicked ever since. If you were in THIS season? I'd roll right over you!

Gemma doesn't answer back, she just hobbles to the mats. Every step looks awkward and ripe with pain

Gemma - Let's go girl... you like running your mouth off so much? Let's see how you like it when I shut you up

Praggy looks over to Rachel almost laughing aloud. Her eyes seem to say "Are you serious?" and Rachel answers with a shrug. Turning back to Gemma,

Praggy - ok... guess you really like wheelchairs...

She sprints out at Gemma! Extending her right arm for a clothesline as the others huddle around to view the impromptu brawl but a split second before Praggy lands her hit  Gemma steps in hard! She lifts her left hand gripping Praggy's right wrist and throws her right shoulder forward! Praggy hit's her smaller foe like she just hit a brick wall! Their chests slam together and her throat smashes against Gemma's right shoulder causing the bigger girl to gasp, her eyes widening almost comically.

In a flash Gemma wraps her arms around her foes waist and lifts!!! She spins backwards hurling the bigger girl through the air until they come crashing down on the thin mats! Praggy's back slammed into the floor with Gemma's weight fully on top of her! The perfect belly to belly suplex!

The impact shocks Praggy and stun's her but Gemma doesn't stop for a second. She's spun around, locking Praggy's right arm in a scissors then gripping her opponents wrist she leans back in a cross arm breaker. Praggy's face is a mask of pain! The sudden jarring and wrenching motion in her shoulder and elbow is agonising as her legs and free arm kick and thrash uselessly at the mats. After about 15 seconds Gemma see's Rachel's nod and drop's the hold.

As soon as her arm is released Praggy rolls away nursing her aching limb. Although her pride took a hit, no lasting damage was done. Gemma, laying on her back does a backwards roll into a hand stand press then she lands on her feet. The amassed  fighters all look on stunned and open jawed. All except Rachel

Gemma - As one of Rachel's trainers I consider it an honour to be able to teach you your first lesson...

She booms out like a drill sergeant, striding back an forth

Gemma - When weak, feign strength.... When strong? Feign weakness.... In this game what you see in front of you might not always be what it appears to be... A boastful powerhouse could turn out to be a scared little girl... and a cripple might just beat the shit out of you...

Praggy's head drops at this last line, anger smouldering inside her but it's smothered by her own humiliation

Rachel - You all thought Gemma was weak? That's because she wanted you to think that. I expect you to take that demonstration and learn from it because I don't repeat myself. I look at you all now and I see a lot of strong women... all of you with your backs straight and your head's held high... your chests pushed forward like a soldier on parade but what does that tell me? It tells me you're weak... that you feel the need to compensate for your inadequacies with mindless shows of bravado and pompous flair. THAT ENDS NOW.

The group of fighters all seem to shuffle uncomfortably, as if they were being dissected by Rachel's stern glare

Rachel - now... partner up, we're going to do some warm ups before we get into the swing of things...

As the girls all split off and form into groups Rachel whispers in Gemma's ear

Rachel - how are you feeling?

Gemma - like I'm gonna cry...

Rachel - You hurt yourself?

Gemma - nothing I can't take, but thanks for asking

Rachel - well it worked perfectly

Gemma - I'm just glad it wasn't Wildcat who called me a cripple... seriously! I could hug Praggy for Saying it first!

x G x

This looks like it will be just as much fun as the first season!  Great job by both of you so far!  Can't wait to read more!

PS..I'm going to go with Laurie, Shawna, and Bully Brit.  ;D

Meanwhile... Team Samantha's eight present girls arrive at the spacious mansion the twenty girls will share, but a fight has already broken out on the bus.

(Dynamite- So, I'm just sipping some fooking apple juice, and the one with the blonde hair, Girlwrestler Joanne, she goes over the back on my seat and lands next to me with Shawna on top of her, squeezing her tits. I couldn't give a shit about that, but if one of them had made me spill a drop of my apple juice, I would've bodyslammed both of em.)

Shawna- Still talking shit, Joanne? Didn't I tell you I would own you over and over again? You can't beat me Joanne!

Joanne- Ahhhhhhhh!!!! You bitch!!! Fight fair!!

Shawna- Life isn't fair, bitch! And neither am I!

(Katrina- I didn't know too much about Shawna, but I was glad she was beating up Joanne. Ha ha! I've been there before.)

Dana- Let her go, Shawna.

Shawna- And just who the hell are you?

Dana- It doesn't matter who I am, but I know where you'll be if you don't let her go.

Shawna- And just where is that?

(Dana- I didn't want to get involved and I didn't know who started it, but my instincts just kicked in. These two have been talking online and having secret fights... I didn't feel like allowing their feud to ruin our first day.)

Dynamite- You're all gonna end up on your asses if you don't get the fook away from me!

Justice- Ladies!! Ladies!! You are ladies, aren't you?! Chill out!!

(Rumor- It was hilarious... they're wasting their energy being stupid and fighting on the way to the house. What a bunch of fools.)

(Shawna- I decided to let Jo baby go. My purpose here is to win, but I enjoy every moment or tormenting that stupid blonde bitch. She keeps coming at me and she keeps losing. I know all of her weaknesses and soft spots. Now, I could put crosshairs on Dana and Justice, but since they're on my team, they could wait... just like Joanne.)

(Justice- So, after Dana and I separated Shawna and Joanne, we pull up at the house and it was huge. You know, I grew up in the projects of Washington DC... I'm not used to this. I was humbled by the house and shocked when I got inside.)

(Brit- The floors in some of the room had gold in them. Fitting for someone like me.)

(Dana- There was a bathroom with a solid gold toilet. The pool was large and we had an indoor gym and a kitchen on all three floors. I've never seen a house like this, and I'm from right here in LA.)

(Katrina- Who would want a solid gold toilet? You could bust that up and sell it and buy an ass that won't shit with that money. I liked the house, but it didn't make a big difference to me. I'm here to fight.)

(Rumor- One thing I liked was that we got here first while Team Rachel went to training, so we got first dibs on the bedrooms.)

(Dana- I wanted to have my own room, but I ended up rooming with Katrina. She's no nonsense so far, so I don't think we'll be having tea in the morning or late night conversations, but I know she won't bother me and I won't bother her. And she's clean too.)

(Dynamite- I got a room with Rumor. We don't know each other that well, but we competed at the Female Fight Olympics. I fought for England; she fought for South Africa; I got a gold and she got a silver, but we didn't fight each other.)

(Joanne- I find a room and there's a girl sleeping in one of the beds and she's tall with big boobs and short black hair. I know who Baby Liz is, so I assume this chick is Victoria. She was totally knocked out, so I just left her where she was.)

(Brit- Justice came up with this idea that we should wait for Team Rachel to come back from training so that we could all decide on rooms. I wasn't waiting for them and Justice was getting on my nerves. It's like she comes her ass in here with her airy poet voice and her orange and yellow dreadlocks and tries to act like she's in charge. Fuck her. I wasted some M&Ms on the floor and she was telling me to pick them up.)

Brit- Bitch, do you know who I am? I'm Bully Brit!

Justice- I don't know who you are, but I know what you are... you're messy. Clean it up.

Brit- Or else?

The doorbell rings just as Justice moves close to the shorter Brittany. Justice opens the door and Samantha walks in. Samantha is wearing a red tank top and a pair of jean shorts with red and gray sneakers.

Samantha- Everybody meet me in the living room.

The girls gathered in the living room, including Victoria, who comes down in black jeans and a black bra.

Victoria- Whoever woke me the fuck up better not admit it.

Samantha- Ladies, we're going to training. Rachel's team is already doing it and I'm sure she's training them hard. I'm a bit different. I don't think we're going to train that much today. This is going to be more like an orientation.

Victoria- I don't want to go.

Samantha- Then stay home.

Victoria- Are you sure you want me to do that?

Samantha- I don't know what Jessika told you about me, but one thing you're gonna learn is that I don't care. If you don't want to train with us, if you think you can do it on your own... then fine. Run solo, babe. I have nine other girls I have to worry about. Ladies, let's go. And by the way, we're going to be jogging to the gym.

(Samantha- I don't have time for the bullshit. It's a win-win situation for me. If she had come to training, she would've learned something. If she's home, when Rachel's team gets there, she'll annoy the fuck out of them. But one thing that was pissing me off... where the fuck was Baby Liz? And then, she shows up.)

Liz is wearing a black tank top, blue jeans and flip flops.

Samantha- Baby Liz... I've heard all about you, babe. You know what you are, Liz? You're a HAM.

Liz- What the fuck is that?

Samantha- A Hot Ass Mess. We're jogging to the gym, and you stink of marijuana and rum. Let's go.

The girls jog to the gym, but a couple of them, Katrina, Justice, and Liz are brining up the rear. Samantha jogs back to confront them... and Liz stops and starts walking, even vomiting.

(Samantha- Katrina's pace was good; she was just behind the other girls. I could excuse that because she is thick. God gave her some really nice assets and they will weigh her down. But she's good at fighting and that's what counts. I read she has good endurance, and she wasn't huffing and puffing.)

(Katrina- I was holding my own. BUT-- I came here to fight, not to jog.)

(Samantha- Justice was a little ahead of Katrina.)

Samantha- Why are you going so slow, dreds?

Justice- I don't want to leave them.

Samantha- Aw, that's sweet... but you might have to fight them later.

Justice- Then what's the point of being on a team then?

Samantha- You got a smart mouth, Justice. I hope it translates into a good fighter.  Come on, Liz!!! What the fuck are you doing?!!! Pick up the pace!!

(Samantha- Liz was pathetic; the bitch was trying to smoke, drink water, and jog. This girl is an undefeated mma fighter? And I'm an astronaut.)

Samantha sprints passed Liz in the opposite direction, runs up behind her, and shoves her.

Liz- Hey, quit it, bitch!

Samantha- Or else what? Girl, I'd drop you like a bad habit, like all those bad habits you've got already.

Liz- I'm in control of myself.

Samantha- Look at you. You can't even jog and you want to be a fighter?

Liz- I already am a fighter. I'm undefeated.

Samantha- (jogging backwards and staring right into Liz's eyes) I heard you lost to Laurie Breeze. It's on the internet.

Liz- That was some time ago. I wasn't even a professional fighter y--

Samantha- Then you're not undefeated, Liz. Duh; you're not undefeated. See these cigarettes and the pot and the drinking? I know women who could do that shit and could beat up anybody they face and that's because they're that fucking good. You? You can't even run a mile on a cool day in Los Angeles because you're strung out.

Liz- You don't know what you're talking about. You're just a rich bitch with a mouth. What did you ever have to--

Samantha- Don't you fucking go there with me. You have no idea what I've been through. You better get your shit together, Liz. Remember, I'm not the one who's gonna be in the cage getting my ass kicked. You will.

Once the girls arrive at the gym, Samantha leads them in and the 5'8" 140 lb Justine Credible, with her long lemon blonde hair and hazel eyes is waiting with a smile on her face and is dressed in her blue and gold dragon designed wrestling gear with snakeskinned gold wrestling boots. The 5'3" 135 lb Katora Sanchez, with her Cuban brown skin, her long curly black hair, and her blue eyes and round face is in her white gi and has her arms folded, staring at the girls. And last, the Haitian Sensation, the 5' 110 lb mocha skinned Karma, with her long black hair is dressed in a black and gold wind suit and is leaning against the apron of the cage.

Samantha- Gather around, ladies. I want to introduce you to my team.

(Samantha- I didn't see the point of changing anything or trying to do it all myself. Christina can't help me with this for obvious reasons, but I can have my training team with me.)

Samantha- Justine Credible has held every major title in OPW at least once and has won the Queen of the Ring tournament. She's had every kind of match you can imagine. But what you may not know about her is that she got her start in the minor federations. She knows what it's like to wrestle in a funky gym with a torn bicep and no padding on the floor, then only get paid twenty five dollars for an hour long match. And do you know why she did it? Because she gave a fuck. Katora has a black belt in five different martial arts disciplines and if you watched the last season of Ultimate Catfighter, you saw the judges rob her of a fight she won against Misty Storm. Kat is one of the best strikers in the game, but what you probably don't know is that she used to be homeless and she came to Miami on a boat from Cuba. You know how she got to where she is today? She gave a fuck. Karma is my girl; she's one of the best fighters in the game and she's become one of the best trainers, strategists, and nutritionists in the game. I've got her and Typhoid Tina helping me with my diet. Karma's got submissions out of this world and she's got suplexes galor. She's like the female version of Taz, but you wouldn't know that she was raised by nuns and lost practically everything after that earthquake. She could be doing something else with her knowledge, but do you know why she's here? Because she gives a fuck. I want you each to tell me in one sentence why you're here.

Rumor- To win. That's the point.

Justice- To learn to be a better fighter.

Samantha- Wrong answer, Justice. If you're not here to win, then you're not here, honey. Rumor gave the answer I would hope you all would've given, but I already see that some of you aren't thinking that way. I can tell you this; Rachel isn't taking it easy on the girls she's got. She will push them, and some of them will probably break. Me? I'm only gonna push you as far as you push yourselves. You saw that with Victoria. If you don't want to be here... there's the door. I'm not your momma; I have a daughter, just like Rachel does. At the same time, I will respect who you are and I will give you freedom. I am not going to force you to do anything you don't want to do, but you can't hang around here if you won't do what we say. In other words, we have a routine and we have training methods we want you to do. But, if you have a routine of your own that you want to practice, if you want to go work on your own or however you want to do it, I don't care. You can even use this gym to do your private workouts. It will not offend me at all. Just make sure your asses are here when I tell you to be here and you do what we tell you to do during our training time. And that's another thing. Anything we ask you to do, we will do it with you. Notice that I wasn't in a car with a megaphone screaming at you to pick up the pace. I was right there jogging with you. I will work out with you; I will spar with you; I will run, swim, whatever. If you want to wrestle naked or fight dirty or whatever works for you, I don't care... but wait, I'm not wrestling naked. Christina told you all that you aren't shit if you're here, but at the same time, you're here for a reason. You had to do something right to be in this position, and I don't want to change that. But if your way doesn't work... we're gonna do it my way. That being said, we've got some work to do now. Any of the trainers have anything to say? Anything I forget?

Justine- We want to win just as badly as you guys do. Because it's Rachel, it's personal.

Samantha- Thank you, Justine. Look... you all already know that I don't like Rachel Apache. I don't like that bitch at all because she thinks she's better than everybody. She doesn't think I'm worthy of fighting her again and she doesn't think any of you are worthy because she didn't pick you. I want to beat that bitch. And you should want to beat her too. Gemma Rox and I have had a rivalry; we don't like each other at all. And when you look at Gemma limping around and spitting her stupid ass remarks... remember that I'm the reason why she's all fucked up. I put her in a wheelchair. Sage and I ain't cool... shit, Rachel may bring in her Canadian dwarf friend to help too. I've got a lot of enemies over there, so I've got to train you to be your best for the reputation of the other trainers here and myself. Now, we've got some tests we're gonna put you through, and then, we'll let you go home for the day. I told y'all that we're not doing that much today. But tomorrow, it's gonna get really real. So be ready.

NEXT: The drama continues and the first fight takes place.  8)

PS..I'm going to go with Laurie, Shawna, and Bully Brit.  ;D

Thanks Joni! I won't let ya down! I can't say the same for the other two bitches you're going for, specially when they get in with me! Bully Brit is gonna be my first victim 'n Shawna better be watching her back! They're gonna come in thinking they're up against a 'little breeze' but they're gonna get hit full-on by a nasty mini twister! Just sayin'!

Gemma said she'd work with me 'n teach me a few of her 'special' moves, I don't think I need her help but if it means another chance to tangle with her 'n pay her back for our last fight, well, I'm all for it!

Laurie (GG4L!)

thanks, Laurie! I'm thankful to have Gemma Rox helping me with some of this because I really haven't been feeling well at all. I think that working on this helps me ignore the pain, but sometimes, like yesterday, it was so bad that I could barely type.

Gemma's done a fantastic segment featuring you, Laurie and you'll see it when she's done with it. She's a fantastic writer and a great friend.  :)

Yes, she is  a fantastic writer & great friend 'n SO ARE YOU!!!

She 'n I have been kinda brainstorming on the segment....Well, I'm throwing in personal Breezy touches 'n I know the finished product will be terrific!

Howard, I'm praying 'n hoping the pain lessens, I know you told me there's nothing that can be done about it....Stay strong, know that we all love you 'n care soooo much for you, we're here for you....you are a very very special part of FCF, just sayin'!

huggggzzzzz 'n xoxoxo   :) ;) :-*

~Laurie~

Laurie that means a lot. I've been here since late '04, I believe, and I haven't read those sorts of words towards me very often, but when I have read them, they've meant the world.

Nothing in life is hopeless as long as we continue to live with a desire to help others. I cannot change the past, but I can make a difference in someone else's future and that's what I live by.

Thanks  :-*

I'd like to give a big BIG thank you to Laurie your help and input in this part and of course Howard for your guidance and allowing me to help in your project :D you both ROCK!



2 hours into Team Rachel's training session...

Rachel - Gemma, I know you've had a thing with Laurie Breeze in the past but do you think you can look past that and work on her wrestling skills? I've been watching her all session and she just looks like a fish out of water here...

Gemma - Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm not sure she knows what sparring is. To her there's fighting and there's not fighting. I don't think she knows how to throw a punch with anything less than 100% power! You see the hit she gave Wilma?

Rachel - no but I heard it, then I heard her screaming after Wilma put on an ankle lock as payback

Gemma - yeah... that was kinda funny

Rachel - no it wasn't. I'm all for training hard but if every swing she throws in here is a knock out blow she's either going to put one of our girls out of action or aggravate them so much they take her out... I'd like you to go over there and train with her. Maybe some one to one coaching is what she needs.

Gemma sighs and looks over at Laurie, she's on her back getting pounded by Wilma "the Geek Freak" Watson but her defence is more akin to something you'd see in a cheerleaders locker-room catfight than an MMA fight... she's got a whole lot of heart and as Wilma picks her shots and pounds out Laurie, she just keeps on trying to scramble out of it to no avail. Gemma nods at Rachel then jogs over to the two of them

Gemma - Hey Wilma, good pace so far, go see Rachel she'll set you up with a new routine, I think she mentioned some sparing with Nikki

Wilma - sure thing Gemma

She get's up offering Laurie a hand but the diminutive brunette declines and gets up on her own power. Her left cheek is already a little puffy and red from a heavy shot she took and her nose has dried blood under it

Wilma - *laughing and snorting* I wouldn't want to pull you up anyway. Your hands are sweaty and germy and I don't like bacteria and fungus...

(Wilma- Laurie Breeze... you know, the wind carries bacteria and e-coli and all kinds of flesh-eating diseases. Kind of like Laurie, but I guess my chokehold and ground and pound was the vaccine, ha ha ha *snort*!)

Gemma - look Laurie... we need to work on your ground game

Laurie - Why?

Gemma - because you don't have one

Laurie - so I won't go to the ground, big deal

Gemma sighs hard, feeling like she's talking to a brick wall

Laurie - don't you fucking sigh at me! I'm giving it my all damn it!

Gemma - oh I know that Laurie! I mean DAMN! don't you know how to pull some back? These girls are your team mates! You should be learning from each other! Bettering each other! Not trying to knock the fuck out of each other!!!

Laurie - What... what do you mean? I'm givin' it my all ain't I? I'm training as hard as I can! Not a single girl here has gone at it as hard as I have!!!

She growls out defensively

Gemma - you're one dumb fucking bitch, you know that? Yeah you work hard, but you don't work smart! You'd spend 6 hours punching a hole in a brick wall to get to the other side and by DAMN you'd succeed! That heart of yours would make sure of it... but if you JUST listen to someone's advice, you'd realise there was an unlocked door down the wall and you could have saved yourself 6 fucking hours and a bloody hand!... you hear what I'm saying?

Laurie - oh don't worry Gemma... I've heard every word you've said about me

She scowls, her eyes narrowing as she recalls Gemma's pre season interviews

Laurie - and I've said before, this is Ultimate Catfighter not Ultimate Wrestler! I've done just fine up to now without wrestling skills....I survived a war with you in that locked room...I took your best 'n gave it right back....I know just as much now as I did then. You beat me but that had nothing to do with me knowing little about wrestling. You just had more fighting experience.

Gemma sighs again and rolls her eyes knowing Laurie would bring up their previous violent encounter...

Gemma - FINE! You don't want any help? Then get your arse laid out by Bully Brit! We'll spend our time training the next girl to do what you'll fail to do! But do me one thing... just go easy in sparing would you? You keep trying to take peoples heads off with every swing and you're going to damage Rachel's fighters or yourself for that matter

Laurie - well we got a problem then... 'coz I don't hold back, no way, no how! Besides, how can I be sure I can trust them to hold back on me? Most of 'em are bigger than I am. No way I'm taking any chances, I'll take them out before they can do it to me... but I see your point. Tell you what... if you're so worried I might injure one of your precious heifers, how about you spar with me? After all... nobody really cares if you get hurt do they?

Gemma - *sigh* fine... we'll go for three minute rounds, just here on the mats, but do me a favour? Just try and hold back a little biUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!

Gemma grunts as Laurie's knee slams her low in her stomach, closer to her womanhood than her abs... as she doubles over Laurie grips her hair and fires three fast knee's into her face stunning her and causing a lot of blood to flow... Gemma grunts with each brain rattling impact and drops to her knees. Laurie steps back, ripping at Gemma's hair as she does and that sends her sprawling face down on the mats. In an instant Laurie spots the 4 month old scars on Gemma's lower back and drops a hard right knee down across it

Gemma - FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!!

She screams out, her face in total anguish. By now all the other fighters have crowded round and are watching the brawl take place. Rachel, noticing this, makes a gesture to them.

Rachel- Don't stop. Continue working. Do not allow yourselves to become distracted. You will have your time as well.

Porsche/Perfect- Ms. Rachel or Master Rachel or Mrs. Apache-Thunderhawk, may I have a word with you?

Rachel- What is it, Green?

Porsche notices that Rachel stresses "Green" when she speaks, almost as if to send a message about Porsche's lack of experience. Porsche has heard this before from other fighters, but it feels differently coming from the greatest of all time.

Porsche- Please don't take it as me questioning your training methods, but—

Rachel- But you are about to question my methods, right Green?

Porsche- I'm just concerned because Gemma is the other trainer and she's spending a lot of time with Laurie Breeze and I know they have a past.

Rachel- And how would you know that... Green?

Porsche- I researched it.

(Porsche- She was mocking me; she was trying to break me and she was winning. I wanted to call her "purple" for her making fun of my last name like that. But I knew she was trying to toughen me up. Knowing her, if she was annoyed, she wouldn't have let me talk or she wouldn't have talked to me at all.)

Porsche- Look, I'm concerned that other girls are not getting that much personal attention from her and I know you're overseeing and you can't—

Rachel- Don't tell me what I cannot do.

Porsche- I have a fight coming up against Victoria. She's vicious and she fights dirty and I'm very concerned about this.

Rachel- But you are... what do you call yourself? You are Perfect 10.

Porsche- That's not who I really am. I know you know that.

Rachel- You don't know what I know.

Porsche- I wish I did.

Rachel- You acknowledge that this fight will be difficult. Acknowledging the problem is the first step to solving it. Gemma is doing much more than I've asked her to do; she is extending herself and performing beyond the call of duty. But she will not be the only trainer coming here. And perhaps, Green, when the other trainers get here, you will wish you only had Gemma and me. In the case of one of the trainers, I know you will, because she will be harder on you than Gemma ever could be.

Porsche- I would just like some more attention, that's all. I recognize that I am one of the least experienced girls here.

Rachel- If you want it, you shall have it. But remember, you asked for it. For now, you're sparring with Wildcat.

Porsche- gulp!

Wildcat approaches White Tiger/Hitomi. The 6'4" Wildcat towers over the shorter Hitomi; she's nearly a foot taller than the Asian American and looks down, smiling.

Wildcat- So, you're the hotshot from Japan, huh?

Hitomi- I wouldn't consider myself a hot—UNNNNHHHH!!!

The slap comes hard and knocks Hitomi off her feet and in the air. Hitomi flies about six feet back and lands on a bench, banging her head against the wall.

Lucy- Hey bitch! Why don't you try picking on somebody more around your size.

Wildcat- Don't mind if I do. You're a bingo hall wrestler; I've been to the mountaintop. You're a snack for me.

Rachel- Stop it.

Lucy- But she slapped—

Rachel- I said stop it. Go back to your training, Lucy Thunder.

Wildcat- You know, Rachel, there's something I've been meaning to do to you for a long time.

Rachel- And if you try to, I'll make sure you no longer compete in this competition.

Wildcat- What? You'll try to have me kicked out? Such a bitch move, Rachel.

Rachel- No... I will break both of your arms. And if you scream and it annoys me ears, I will break your legs. Go back to training. Do it now.

Wildcat sneers at Rachel as Nikky Smalls sort of chuckles. Rachel leans over White Tiger and Hitomi rubs her jaw and lowers her head.

Rachel- You disappoint me.

Hitomi- I was being respectful to you, Gemma Rox, my fellow team mates, and the dojo.

Rachel- Being respectful is not the same as being a pushover. And this is not a dojo.

Hitomi- I apologize, Master Rachel.

Rachel- You will run laps around this gym, and when you finish each lap, you will do twenty chin ups. You will not stop until training is over. If you are the White Tiger, then that is who I expect to see in this gym and who I expect to see in the cage. If you have to wear your ring attire and mask to training, do so.

Hitomi- Yes, Master.

Gemma - AAAGGHHHH!!! UUUGGGGGHHHH!!! OOOHHHH SHIT!!! FUUUUUUUUCK!!!!"

She roars out four more times as Laurie proceeds to batter fists and elbows into Gemma's lower back. She's like a wild animal, no real form so to speak but vicious instincts and merciless drive.

Laurie - See? Who needs wrestling, Gemma? I've got you on the mat like a pathetic bitch!

As she readies to slam another punch in, Gemma rolls. Laurie's hand hits the mat hard and forces a shocked yelp of pain from her. Gemma spins, her right hand snapping out like a whip, CRUNCHING into Laurie's jaw.

In a heartbeat the tide turns, one precise hit robbing the aggressor of her senses and whereabouts... her eye's look glazed and her jaw is a little slack as Gemma spins around her and locks in a rear naked choke

Laurie - Aaaaaaaggggkkkkkk!!!!!

Her eyes widen as Gemma locks in the hold

Gemma - look... if you knew more about wrestling you could learn to counter holds like this! You wouldn't be such a victim! You could fight the fight the way YOU want to! Just let me teach you!!!

Laurie - Uuuugghhh!!! Ff...... Fuck you!... uuurrrgggkkkkkk........

Gemma - Look damn it!!! My legs aren't locked around your waist, you have plenty of opportunities to get free, you just have to let me show you!

Laurie - eeeeggggkkk........

Laurie's eyes are panicked but she snaps shut her mouth. Despite the worry showing on her face all can see and realise the stubbornness in her and they can she'd rather pass out with pride than bow down...

(Nikky- Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Laurie Breeze struggling against Gemma. I've sparred with Gemma and I know how tough she is. Laurie's seems like a sweet girl, but she was really acting out... and she was paying for it. Trainers are here for a reason; she has to know that she is not going to beat Gemma or Rachel and if she doesn't listen to them, she's going to get killed in there. It's serious business.)

Gemma - Fine... have it your way...

Gemma keeps the hold locked on and after about 20 seconds Laurie's struggles cease as she passes out.

Rachel- Everyone stop. Gather around.

Gemma let's go immediately and addresses the crowded fighters.

Gemma - look... you might not always agree with some of the things we have to say or some of the methods we chose to employ but rest assured... if you don't listen? If you really wanna do things your own way? Then get ready to be knocked the fuck out!!! Maybe you'll get lucky and end up like Laurie here... knocked out in the gym. But more than likely you'll get knocked out in that cage in front of millions watching on their TV screens at home... and trust me... the last thing you want to see for a week straight is replay's on ESPN of your arse getting beat down... now get back to work!!!

Rachel- Resume your training.

(Lucy Thunder- I'm not used to being yelled at like that, but I understand where Gemma's coming from. Laurie was being hard headed, getting ahead of herself. I know that cage will change you. You've got to put yourself in that mindset to go to war, but you've got to know the difference between sparring and a fight.)
Wildcat- Ha ha ha!!! The little wittle Laurie Breeze from Badlands... what a fucking phoney!! She got knocked out!!

Lucky- Rachel, I'm thirsty. May I have a drink of water?

Rachel- You may. I do not have patience for brownnosers.

Lucky- Excuse me?

Rachel- When you return, you'd best be giving a better account of yourself instead of what you're doing.

(Lucky- I wrestle a certain way. I'm very sexual, very in tune with my body, but I'm undefeated. I just... I guess she doesn't understand me.)

(Praggy- Gemma Rox annoys me. I don't know what kind of team I am on. They try to beat on us and try to bury us. How are any of us going to fight if the trainers are slamming us and choking us out? If someone tries to hurt me, I will take matters into my own hands.)

(Kathy- I really felt sorry for Laurie. She's such a polite girl and she's so sweet, but I wasn't going to speak out against the trainers and Laurie didn't seem like she wanted to talk or be helped up. When I tried to suggest to Praggy that she be more respectful, she cursed at me... and nobody likes being cursed at.)

Gemma strides over to the water cooler, hiding the agony in her back right now and Rachel walks over to talk to her

Rachel - that's hardly what I meant Gemma...

Gemma - I... I know... I'm sorry. Maybe I'm not cut out for this? I mean... you're one of the few girls in this world who doesn't want to kick the crap out of me... and even you beat the shit out of me once!

Rachel - look. I wouldn't have requested you here if I didn't believe you could do this. Can you teach them more about fighting than me? Of course not

Gemma - Thanks for that...

Rachel - but you lived what they're going to live through. You put up with the house, the bickering, the comradeship, the back stabbing... you can maybe get through to them in a way I can't. you can relate to them.

Gemma - are... are you saying I can do something better than you?

Rachel sighs and rolls her eyes

Rachel - You... have skills and applications that.... I can appreciate. And I recognise you're a good resource to us. We're working together so your successes are ultimately my successes.

Gemma - You make me sound like a tool...

Rachel cracks the faintest of smiles

Rachel - not my choice of words but appropriate

Gemma - you can be a pretty big tool yourself sometimes

Rachel - just go wake up breeze...

Gemma - sure thing boss

Rachel- Don't call me that

Gemma - OK Captain

Gemma fills up a plastic cup with ice cold water and walks over to Laurie and throws it on the girls face

Gemma - come on Breeze... round two... let's go

Laurie - wh... wha... huh?

Gemma - oh? That fighting spirit got put to sleep with you maybe?

Laurie - ooohhh holy crap on a cracker!.... my head.......

Gemma sits down next to Laurie and smiles

Gemma - yeah, those headaches are a bitch... I've felt them more times than I care to admit. But wouldn't you like to be the one inflicting them for a change? I... I'm not asking you to change who you are Laurie.. I'm just... I'm just trying to help.

Laurie - well... maybe I was a little aggressive... Maybe...

Gemma - You punched me in the spine!

Laurie - well... I figured you'd tap out or something!

Gemma - hahaha... yeah... I kinda figure you would too. Maybe we're not that different after all?

Laurie - hehe, guess not... look... You were right.... I was w-wrong. I see that now. If that offer's still open, I'd surely like to learn how you did that. Maybe it would come in handy... just sayin'..... but this doesn't mean we're pals or nuthin' after this is done? I think me and you need to settle a score...

Gemma - ok... I would say you're being childish and pathetic but I have about 7 scores I'm just itching to settle myself, I think I know where you're coming from. And for what it's worth? I'm sorry for what I did to you... and I'm sorry for what I'll do to you when we're finished with all this, but for the time being.... truce?

Laurie - Truce.

The two of them hit the mats with a more organised form from then on. Laurie even proves to be quite the apt student, taking to these new disciplines and techniques whole heartedly. Grappling... scrambling... mount control and defence... she throws herself into all aspects. Of course after 2 hours she's no pro, but at least she'll be able to defend against the basics. After a while she even starts developing her own moves and holds, re-working techniques she's applied in street fights and cat fights.

Gemma was left howling in pain in Laurie's version of a surf board. Rolling Gemma over onto her stomach she traps Gemma's ankles under her arm pits while at the same time pulling back on her wrists placing her feet behind Gemma's head, torturing her neck at the same time. Laurie calls this one 'Hanging Ten'

The hours pass and Rachel walks over to them

Rachel - Come on both of you, good session today but we only have 30 minutes before the other group turns up

Laurie - Do you mind if we just knock out another 10 mins or so? I think I've almost got this komora down

Gemma - Agh!... It... It's pronounced Kimura honey...

She stammers out, Laurie struggling to put the complex arm lock on her

Rachel - Make sure you're out of here before the others team shows up

The two of them carry on, Gemma offering herself as the human punch bag for Laurie's assault. Occasionally she punishes Laurie, spotting an obvious gap or weakness and attacking. The first few times Laurie takes the hits and growls but sure enough after a while she adapts and tightens her posture. At the moment Laurie's arms are up high, holding Gemma down on her back as she grapples with the Kimura she's trying to trap Gemma's left arm in. Suddenly Gemma slams right hook after right hook into Laurie's ribs

Laurie - Aaaaghh!!! Uuuggghh!!! Oooggguuuuhhh!!! OK!.. Ok... you got me! How the hell am I gonna block those hits when I need both hands to lock the hold in?

She groans, sitting up and rubbing her ribs. Gemma sits up too smiling.

Gemma - It's all in the timing honey

Laurie - Timing?

Gemma - yup, you need to lock that hold in faster! You get a good Kimura locked in? I'll be way too busy tapping and begging you to stop to even think about punching you

Laurie - Riiiiiiight... I got ya. It... it's just a whole lot to take in, ya know?

She say's worriedly, the full scale of what she's gotten herself into finally hitting her

Gemma - I know honey... better than you realise. When I came here? I didn't know jack. I was a good boxer and I knew some wrestling moves, hell... I'd go as far to say I had some pretty awesome moves! But when you know 20 moves in a sport that has hundreds? Well... it's easy to feel like you've got no chance.

The two of them sit there in silence for a little while, recovering their breath. Laurie's head seems to sink down as in her mind, her chances of winning get smaller and smaller until Gemma puts her arm around her shoulder

Gemma - hey, don't you go getting down now! I mean... I won this last year! And I knew fuck all! Haha, look... you might not know wrestling or BJJ or karate or kick boxing... but here's the thing, they don't know that! You're not a world renowned righter like Rumour or Nikki Smalls, you're an unknown quantity and that scares people! All they really know is that you're training under Rachel Apache! Maybe THE greatest fighter the sport has ever known! Rest assured that in their heads, they'll be taking nothing for granted.

Laurie - thanks Gemma, I really needed to hear that

The two of them hug when the doors burst open....

Samantha - well isn't that sweet... you see how hard Team Rachel train girls? That's some forward thinking shit going on there. I mean this is fighting 101 right here! Step 1? How to defend against a sweet little cuddle.

Justine- Team Sam in the motherfuckin' houssssssssssssssssssse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A lot of her girls start laughing but Gemma just curses, regretting letting the time slip away

Gemma - Laurie, you go grab your bag, time we get out of here

Kat walks over to Gemma as the two girls get up

Katora - What are you doing here Gemma? This is disrespectful.

Gemma - whoa... whoa now! Calm down girl! We just lost track of time is all, we'll be out of your hair in a second

Katora – Then get out. You more than anyone knows the rules. A fighter staying behind to catch up on some training is one thing... but a coach on the opposing team? That's out of line.

Gemma - Jeez Kat! I said we were going, I'm sorry! Ok?

Samantha - It's cool Kat, I got no beef with a fighter working overtime, nothing they see here is gonna help them in that cage anyway. Dynamite plans on coming in here at 2 am because that's how she rolls.

Katora- Gemma, take your friend and leave. We have training to do.

Samantha- I think you better do what she says, Rox.

Gemma looks slightly puzzled at Sam's tolerance... if anything she expected to get a sympathetic ear from Katora, not Samantha...

As Laurie packs up her gear, Gemma hobbles over to Sam, re-enacting her little girl hurt routine so Team Sam don't clock on the full extent of Gemma's recovery...

Gemma - look Sam... we.... We need to talk...

Samantha - I did all my talking in the ring when I kicked your ass, you got something to say? Say it at a press conference

Gemma - look... I'm sick of this shit! You speak to a reporter, half of what you say makes it on air, then I retaliate and you end up reading a fraction of what I spoke about... can't we just meet up? No camera's, no press, no bull shit?

Samantha - You make it sound like you've got something I want to hear Rox? I heard all I want from you already. Screaming, tapping, crying, hurting... that's all I want to hear from you and I heard enough 4 months ago to give me the warm fuzzies all year long. You got nothing I want Gemma Cocks... nothing.

Gemma - Fine...

Gemma growls out before taking a deep breath

Gemma - congratulations by the way... you beat me fair and square. You... you're the better woman

Samantha - Gee... thanks for telling me something I already knew. And thanks for the fake rape accusation too, Gemma. That was really classy. If I raped you during the match, I guess the handshake you gave me afterward was just a bad reflex.

Gemma shrugs, shakes her head and starts limping out of the gym. As she hobbles away Sam sighs for a moment and then calls back out over her shoulder

Samantha - Rox?..... I'll think about it.....

Gemma - come on Laurie, let's get out of here before the shit really hit's the fan...

Baby Liz- Hey Laurie, you've put on weight.

As Laurie turns to respond to her old nemesis, Liz, the 5'1" 120 lb Dynamite Quinn bumps her going by.

Dynamite- Watch where the fook you're going!

Laurie- Why don't you watch where--- HEY JOANNE!!!

The two friends hug as Joanne is changed into her gear and Gemma looks around impatiently.

Katora- Joanne, you can do all that at the house. They've got to go; you've got work on the pads.

Laurie and Gemma reach the outside of the gym.

Laurie- Golly... Dynamite Quinn is a bitch, huh?

Gemma- She's really tough, and she's dangerous. But she's my kinda tough.

Laurie- You know; she said she approached you about training with her a year or two ago, and you told her to "fuck off." (see Howard's story "The Mighty Quinn")

Gemma- Funny how I don't remember that.

Laurie- She said you were drunk.

Gemma- Ha! Figures.

x G x

Thank you HOWARD 'n GEMMA for letting me be part of this awesome experience & for letting me add my own personal experiences & 'lil breezy' touches to it! BIG HUGGGGZZZZ TO YA BOTH!!!

Later that night, still feeling the effects of the workout, my whole body sore as hell, muscles I didn't even know I have screaming in pain, I lay on my bed, eyes closed, running everything that happened over 'n over in my head like a movie. I still don't like Gemma, that much won't change, but she gave me a LOT to think about. Gawd, it killed me to have to admit to her face that she was right 'n I was ... I was ... wrong! But she was, damn it. I have to admit that now. I do need to learn from her 'n Rachel. They're on my side, I've got to learn to trust them if I'm ever gonna be the fighter I know I can be.....Owwww, holy crap on a freaken cracker! I just hope Gemma bitch is as sore as I am right now!

~L~

Well Laurie, I'm glad you're enjoying it and I'm glad you want to be an active part of that journey. I am always open to suggestions and Gemma has done such an outstanding job too! Our minds are always going and she's always coming up with great ideas. I'm glad I was strong enough to add some stuff into that segment she just posted. This is going to be a pretty long journey, and hopefully, it's as exciting as the last one.  :)

Good luck against Brittany. She's no slouch lol  ;) and be safe in that house too...  :o

Team Samantha training session...

Bully Brit is dancing around the cage in her pink sports bra and pink lycra shorts, throwing combinations of punches and kicks while Katora watches. Victoria has once again decided not to come to the training, so the other eight girls are paired up and sparring. Dana is with Joanne; Rumor is with Katrina; Quinn is with Liz; Shawna with Justice.

Brit- I'm confident! I'm fucking awesome! I'm better than the best! I'm faster than the speed of sound!

Rumor- Not according to my ears.

Brit- Mind your own fucking business, Rumor!

(Katora- The girl has a mouth on her, but you know, I hang out with Samantha, so I'm used to the girls with big mouths. She needs to back it up, though.)

(Samantha- How are things with Team Samantha?... yawn. I think I picked well; we've got a great team and everyone brings something different to the table, but there are definitely some concerns. Bully Brit is very fast and she's got great striking, but she's overconfident and we're trying to stress to her that she's going to have to bring her A game, regardless of how inexperienced Laurie is.)

Katora holds the pads while Brit works them with punches and kicks. Katora takes swipes at Brit and the little blonde dodges them and responds with combinations and to the paddings on Kat's hands and the giant padding she's wearing on her chest and waist.

Liz- AHHHHHHH!!!!! FUCK!!!!!

Justine Credible- What the hell?

Samantha- Great.

(Samantha- So, Dynamite Quinn and Baby Liz are sparring. Liz takes a cheap shot at Quinn while she's adjusting her mouthpiece and Quinn ducks, lifts Liz up like she's nothing and slams her on the point of her spine. Now, Liz is down hurt and Quinn is trying to go to mount.)

Liz- You crazy fucking bitch! This is sparring!

Dynamite- You took a fooking swipe at me; what the fook did you expect me to do, Baby?

Samantha- Alright, alright... break it up.

Dynamite stands and looks at Samantha.

Dynamite- This fooking bitch has been slacking and jerking off the whole fooking time. She won't engage me and she doesn't want to be here. Waste of my fooking time.

Samantha- Okay Quinn. You want action. You're the only other 5'1" girl I've got here other than Brit. Brit's opponent is 5'1", so she'd benefit from some sparring with you.

(Samantha- My girl, Dynamite Quinn. Ha ha ha ha! She's only 5'1" 120 lbs, but that girl is tough and she's not afraid to show it. She's like an Egyptian platinum haired Wolverine with a British accent. Everybody makes jokes about that girl, but nobody says it to her face ha ha.)

(Justine- Dynamite Quinn doesn't call the wrong number; you answer the wrong phone.)

(Rumor- Dynamite Quinn uses paper to cut scissors.)

(Dana- Dynamite Quinn has already been to Mars. That's why there are no signs of life.)

(Samantha- Dynamite Quinn doesn't flush the toilet; she scares the shit out of it.)

(Joanne- Dynamite Quinn put the "laughter" in "manslaughter.")

(Katrina- Dynamite Quinn... who the fuck is this little girl with her light skin and platinum hair in here trying to be tough? I'm not saying she's not cool. She's a cool chick, but she's a little too small to be acting like that. One day, she'll run up on the wrong one.)

(Shawna- Dynamite who? Oh the other little one with the short hair. She's okay... I guess. I don't really pay attention to the other girls unless I'm sparring with them or they're talking to me. I'm here to win, so I don't have time to be friendly with these bitches.)

(Samantha- There are some girls who I'm naturally going to expect a lot from because they come in with reputations. But there are some dark horses and some girls who I had a hunch would be pretty good. Shawna really impressed me. She was giving it to Justice; she had Justice against the cage most of the time and she was getting these tricky shots into her chest and the ribs. She hurt her with a knee to the stomach and I saw Justice look at her and exhale and Shawna poured it on.)

(Justice- Wow, she wore me out. I slammed her a few times and I got mount on her twice, but she was hitting my privates and doing a bunch of illegal moves. I was looking at Samantha and she said that it was fair. Shawna got me in the stomach and she was taunting me the whole time, but I rocked her with a left hook and she was hurt.)

(Samantha- Shawna got staggered back and I saw the look on her face and she was stunned. Justice bolted on her and slammed her down and almost got her in an arm triangle, but Shawna slipped behind her and put her in a body scissors, then started hitting her in the chest from behind. But Justice got Shawna's arms, pulled them forward and threw her own head back and bloodied Shawna's nose. Then Justice turned over and mounted her, but Shawna kicked her off. It was a good little scrap.)

Samantha addresses both girls when they break.

Samantha- You both have the same problem. Justice... chances are, you're gonna face somebody who's going to foul you. That's a strategy and it can't be ignored. You look at the ref and you're gonna get knocked out... just ask Victor Ortiz ha ha ha. You've been through all kinds of shit, J... you know that. This shit shouldn't phase you.

Justice- I just expect fairness. No; I demand fairness.

Samantha- Girl, I know a little about your story. When the hell has anybody been fair to you?.... Exactly.

Justice- I'm not fouling anyone back, Samantha.

Samantha- I didn't ask you to do that. I said don't look for help when it's being done to you. There you go with that mouth of yours again, J. And you, Shawna... when she caught you with that hook, you sure did get buggy eyed.

Shawna- Buggy eyed?

Samantha- I could see that once your strategy stopped working and you got hurt, you couldn't adjust. You didn't know what to fucking do. I was impressed with both of you, but you girls are gonna have to learn to adjust to changes in the match. Not every girl you face is gonna be Joanne or some big fat ass female wrestler. Some of them are going to know what the fuck they're doing. You're gonna have to be up on it and be ready. Shit, you can't come into a fight expecting to not get hit. That's stupid.

(Samantha- They just looked at me. I didn't know if they understood what I was saying or not.)

(Katora- Dana was sparring with Joanne and I notice that Joanne makes these sexual noises when she gets hit, you know? I don't know if that's a strategy or something, but she starts off well, then she takes a few body shots, and she starts acting like she's waiting to lose.)

(Dana- I was really holding back on Jo because I like her, and because I could tell that she's not as experienced as I am with striking. She's got some submissions and a ground game, but on her feet, she's not very good. I was just going to her stomach and ribs and she was doubling over and yelling, "Ohhhh, you totally got my weak spot!! Uggghhh!!" I took her down and her arms flailed up like she was in a romance novel with Fabio or something and got slammed on the bed.)

(Joanne- Dana is hot, and she's strong. She totally beat me in sparring. I couldn't use my face-sitter on her because her ground game was too good and she kept getting me in my weak spot... my tummy from the bellybutton on down. She knew I use my legs and she got me with so many leg kicks and I could barely move, then she wrapped her arms around me and took me down on my back. I struggled to free myself, but it was too easy for her and her punches were digging into my tummy. Then she put me in an ankle lock. It was totally painful.)

Dana- Are you okay?

Jo- Ugghhh... wow, you won that one.

Dana- I don't consider that winning, Jo. We're just sparring, so I didn't win.

Jo- You hit my weak spot. You figured out that my tummy is my weak spot, and so are my ankles.

Dana- (pulling Jo to her feet) Maybe you shouldn't say that too loudly. Look, you've got a fight coming up against Kathy and they paired us up so that I can help you. I'm down for that. I want you to win.

Samantha- Joanne, you're in the ring with me. Dana, tell Baby Liz to take the icepack off her back and she's sparring with you.

Joanne and Samantha walk to the ring, which is a few feet away from the cage.

Joanne- Samantha, I know you and my bestie Laurie have had some problems.

Samantha- Joanne, don't even start that with me. Laurie Breeze predicted Gemma Rox would kick my ass and she was wrong, then the bitch wasn't woman enough to even admit it. I don't give a fuck about Laurie Breeze other than that she's a girl we're going to knock out of this tournament. So, unless you want to help with the strategy, and I'll only believe so much of what you tell me anyway, don't talk to me about Laurie Bitchin' Breeze. You're on this team and you're supposed to be here to win this tournament, not lick Laurie Breeze's asshole.

Joanne- Well, that's kinda a fucked up thing to say.

Samantha- (looking at Joanne) You must not know too much about me, huh? Look, you're fighting Kathy. She's tall, she fights on the outside, uses her reach and her kicks. She's about my height. So, we're gonna get in the ring, and I'm going to simulate her fighting style. You're gonna try to kick my ass, Joanne. And I'm gonna go easy on you, but if I see you starting to do that weak ass shit like you were with Dana, I'm gonna really take you apart. You're thinking too much about Laurie; the other girls told me how you wanted to be on a team with her and how you're upset because Gemma's around Laurie and you're stuck with Shawna and Katrina. I know you're upset because Laurie goes to bed early now and is too tired to stay up with you. Well, guess what? I don't give a fuck. Does that piss you off, Joanne? Huh "girl wrestler?" The that make you want to punch me, huh? Well, you're about to get your chance.

(Justine- So, I'm watching Katrina and Rumor... what a fight that was. It was like watching Hagler vs. Hearns. Rumor is taller; she's got good movement and a good right hand. She was sticking her right into Katrina's stomach over and over again and moving.)

(Rumor- Kayla's got a good straight right to the belly. She developed it from her days with Abbyfights and I saw enough tape of it to take it as my own. You don't know how many hours I spent practicing that right hand. And I took some of her kicks too.)

(Karma- Katrina was taking some punishment... but that girl got heart. She got mad heart because she kept coming and those gut shots started bending her, but she got Rumor's back against that cage and she started hammering her ribs and Rumor was groaning and moaning and grabbed her, then Katrina flung Rumor across the cage like a rag doll.)

(Katrina- We were fighting toe to toe and as soon as she gets hurt, she wanna grab me? Uh uh, bitch... I tossed her right on her ass.)

(Rumor- She threw me down, like that was supposed to do something. All it did was get me out of harm's way of her punches and I got right back up.)

Katrina- You can't fuckin hurt me!

Rumor- Wanna bet? Come on, Katrina; come on, thick and juicy.

Katrina- Bitch, you're gonna pay for--- OOOOOF!!!

(Rumor- She came right at me and didn't even see my foot when it went up and got her right below her navel. She doubled over and I hit that bitch with a right cross to her jaw and a left hook to her right eye and she was up against that cage with her arms up, covering up, so I just kicked her thighs and kept that right hand ramming her gut.)

Rumor- You look and sound hurt, bitch!

Katrina- Nah bitch, that ain't nothing but a rumor!

(Katrina- I dropped my arms and once she threw that right hand up top, I weaved under it and got her with a left hook to her liver. She made this wimpy noise and buckled and touched her side. I scooped that bitch up and gave her a sidewalk slam right on floor of the cage. The air went out of her and I tried to mount her, but she got her legs around me and squeezed, but I was punching through it.)

(Rumor- That bitch kept on hitting me. I'm thinking that this is sparring and she's losing control of herself and that's bullshit! She's supposed to strike with controlled force. So I decided to buck my legs and when she lifted up a bit, drove my knee up and into her cxnt. I rolled her on her back and I started punching her face while her arms were down.)

(Katrina- She got me with about five good shots and that shit only made me madder. I pushed her off of me and I tried to kick her in the jaw, but she moved and swept my legs out from under me, then she tried to dive on me, but I caught her and slammed her down again. I was trying to mount her, but she was getting me in my belly and below and she caught me in the jaw. But I was on her and once I'm on you, I'm not getting off.)

(Karma- They started really throwing at each other and we had to break it up because it was getting heavy. We had to separate them and they both were pissed off. It's all good though; somebody gonna get fucked up by one of them... hell, some bodies gonna get fucked up by both of them ha ha!)

(Samantha- All and all, I think we had a good session today. Joanne and Liz are really bugging me and they're going to be fighting soon. Liz is lazy and out of it and Joanne puts up a fight, but once she gets hit, she acts like she wants to lose. By the way, Bully Brit got owned in sparring with Dynamite. Dynamite beat that girl's ass; that's why we didn't even show footage of it. It was one-sided. Once Quinn got her arms on Brit, she owned her. Brit said she's been working on her submissions... fuck no. I don't know what Rachel's doing with Laurie, but Brit's gonna have to get her head out of her ass and take this shit seriously because she's not gonna be able to throw a few punches and win this fight. It's not gonna be that easy. We want striking and movement. We want her to attack those legs and that soft ass Laurie Breeze body. Once Laurie gets her arms down, BANG... kick to the head and Breeze is dead on her back. Brit's gonna have to use what she's good at. On paper, there's no fucking way Laurie should win this fight. But the girl didn't come here for a vacation. Fights like these are the most dangerous of all.)

Coming up: Bully Brit vs. Laurie Breeze

Humorous chatter in between the training - looking fwd to the series!  :D ;)

Hugs
Kayla

I can't sleep. For like the hundredth time tonight I look over at the clock. 3:37 AM. I wanna fall asleep but my mind is racing. So damn much to think about.

Like the e-mail I got from Jonica earlier:


I know you're worried but I think you can really do well in the house. Listen to Gemma. She's a skanky bitchwhore but she can teach you. You need to learn some wrestling holds. We're a lot alike. Like me, you have a low center of gravity so we have to rely on our legs and speed. I'd say you would do well with leg scissors and chokes. Plus you can pretty easily learn basic traditional holds, nothing fancy or complicated....say armbars, hammer locks, full nelsons, etc. Stay positive!!!

Joni


On top of that, I'm still hearing Gemma's voice from our training session:


"No, you stubborn idiot! You fucken want to go toe to toe and bang with Brit?! That's her game! Strikes and stand-up! She'll tear your stupid head off and shit down your neck! Take her down and you have a fucken chance!"

"But my wrestling sucks! You saw what happened when you took me down."

"That's why I'm here with you now, you dumb shit! But you gotta work with me. Stop being so damn stubborn and open your thick head to new ideas!"

"My stand-up is good, Gemma. It got me this far. I think I can beat her at her own fucken game."

"Oh, really? She's fast, a hard striker and you think you can beat her at her own game. I expect that coming from a dumb Breed like you."

"What did you ... Shut your mouth, Gemma!"

"A sawed off munchkin who thinks she's a fighting Injun because her great grandfather sneaked into a fucken tepee a long time ago and banged a Sioux squaw."

"I'm warning you, bitch! Shut the fuck up!"

"I'm sick of hearing about your Lakota Sioux pride! It's worth shit here at Ultimate Catfighter!"

I lost it, totally snapped my cap. One minute I'm charging at Gemma ready to knock her into next week. The next minute I'm sitting on my ass on the floor, rubbing my jaw.

"Lesson Two, Laurie. Brit loves to taunt and trash. She'll say shit even worse than what I did to get you to do just what you did. Rush in, not thinking, madder than cat shit. Then she'll knock your ass out. Still think you can bang with her?"

"Okay, fine. You made your point. What do I do to beat her?"

"First, you have to listen to what I say and stop fucken butting heads with me. Think you can handle that?"

"Yeah. I guess."

"Good. You're smartening up. Finally! Now we can move on. But it's getting late. Time to wrap it up for the day. Tomorrow we work on your wrestling."

"It's still early. Why can't we -- ?"

"No. I have things to do. We'll pick it up tomorrow."


I can't sleep. Can't wait. Grab my cell.

"Gemma, it's me ... Laurie ... Sorry, I ... Yeah, I know what fucken time it is! I was ... I'm sorry, I didn't mean ... Damn it to hell, will ya stop cussing at me for like two seconds and please listen to what the fuck I have to say??!! Please? ... Look, I know it's late. I'm sorry I woke you up. I need some wrestling practice. Now. I want this, Gemma. More than I ever wanted anything in my life. I am scared shitless right now that I'm gonna make a total ass of myself in front of millions of people ... Yeah. I'll listen to you. I swear. No butting heads. Okay, I'll bring you coffee ... I don't know if anyone sells crumpets around here but how about an English muffin?"

~Laurie~

Laurie and Gemma, you guys are doing a great job in my absence. I am honored by your contributions. Thank you, Kayla, for your wonderful comments.  :)

I'm coming off a hard work week that had me in pain from my condition worse than usual, and also had birthday parties for both my wife and my sister. Now, I'm battling the flu. So... hopefully, I'll be back soon or try to work my way through all this. You guys are great and I'm looking forward to Gemma posting the "Laurie Breeze vs Bully Brit" fight.  8)

Howard, thank you for letting me contribute! Your inspiration, encouragement 'n guidance, along with Ms. Jenn Peccavi, Gemma, Jonica 'n Stormbolt, have gotten me writing again...something I haven't done very much of since school! I'm in awe of all your talent 'n nowhere in your league but you've inspired me to give it a try! My small contribution to your epic story is a great way for me to not only get my feet wet, but to jump right into the deep end (lifeguard humor!).

Please please take care of yourself, rest up, battle the flu 'n kick its butt!!! All of us care so much about you 'n we're praying for you!

hugggzzz 'n xoxo  :-* :-*

Laurie

Laurie, believe me when I tell you that the pleasure is all mine. I don't know if everybody is wishing me well lol, but I'm glad the people who care are and I certainly know who they are.  ;)

Slowly but surely, I'm getting myself back to health. I thought I be able to do some writing today, but I had a bad night full of sweating and sneezing. I'll be back because I have to occupy my mind and my students have their assignments for the week because I've taught these classes before and don't deviate too far away from the format I used in previous semesters lol.

Thanks for you concern. I'm glad you're writing again because you write beautifully. Oh, the sleeping giant we've awakened in you. The board has not just gained a quality respondent and a true friend, who brings such positive energy, but we just got another great writer. Kudos!

Howard, I think that has gotta be the VERY first time anyone has ever used the word 'giant' in a sentence about me!  ;) ;D 8)

Lots of 'get well' hugggzzzz 'n xoxoxo for ya!  :-* :-*

~L~

Two hours before fight time... Baby Liz, Victoria, and Wildcat are sitting on the front deck of the huge UC house. The three women are downing beer after beer after beer as Wildcat goes on and on about her former glory as a wrestler, before she was busted for steroids. Liz lights up a pipe that's stuff with marijuana.

(Victoria- This old bitch just doesn't shut up ever. I was thinking about ripping Bully Brit's clothes off and fucking her on her own bed, but when Wildcat's around, it's all about Wildcat)

Wildcat- Any of them bitches... Rachel, Glory, Samantha... I'd rip em up!! I'm still in my prime and bitches can't fuck with the pythons baby!!

Victoria- I'm going inside. You're fucking up my daydream, and you're spitting on me.

Wildcat- Hey, fuck you. I heard you didn't go to Jessika to get trained. I heard she fucked up while you were tied down and teary eyed until you accepted.

Victoria- Any time you want to come try to fuck me, you come try. But I'm not into old washed up bitches like you. And I'll get you when you least expect it.

Wildcat- (laughing) Yeah, because you're a bully, right? You're a fucking bully. I'm sitting right here; you can fight me right now. But you're too scared. Bitch, I don't have to sneak up on you. I'm big time and I'm bigger than you (standing up so that her full 6'4" towers over Victoria's 5'10")... but you like picking on little blonde girls. You're a poptart, Vicky; you're soft in the middle. If I wanna fuck you, I'll come in your room and fuck you and you'll take it, just like you did with Jessika. I can see right through you. I spent years in jail, bitch; YEARS of my life was spent with bitches a lot harder than you trying to fuck with me. And you know what turns me on, Vicky? A bitch who acts tough on the outside, but she's just a scared little girl on the inside.

Victoria- (walking away) You old crusty bitch.

(Katrina- I look out the window and I see Wildcat drunk and smoking a cigar, but I see two of our girls out there too. Liz and Victoria, tweedle dum and tweedle dumber, out there drinking and smoking weed. They have some stupid bitches in this house. Wildcat doesn't have a fight yet; she's already in the final 16, but Liz and Victoria have fights coming up, and they're letting that old bitch get them drunk and high. I like to get my drink on too, but I sure wouldn't be doing it if I have a fight in a day or two. I didn't tell them anything; if they lose, that's two less crazy bitches I have to worry about fighting... not that I would be worried anyway.)

(Justice- I saw what was happening outside and I went to the phone and called Samantha. I felt like she needed to know about this.)

Katrina, Dynamite Quinn, Dana Black, and Rumor are all sitting at one of the tables in the spacious dining room, having a lunch of BBQ chicken, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, and a bunch of other stuff.

Wilma- So, umm Katrina... I see that you're eating those BBQ chicken pieces and getting the sauce on your fingers and then, you're licking them.

Katrina- Yeah, that's what people do when they eat BBQ, you dumb ass geeky ass bitch.

Wilma- But you're mixing the sauce with the germs in your mouth and then, the germs in your fingers. You know chicken eat their own feces. It's true.

Dana- Look, we're eating lunch, so please take the "Debbie Downer" stuff elsewhere.

Wilma- Oh... Dana, you speak after all. You know, I know you dye your hair black for your fights and you put on grim reaper make-up, but a lot of those dyes and make-ups are tested on rabbits and are made from whale blubber.

Dynamite- If I lose my fooking appetite, it's gonna take the bloody jaws o'life to remove my foot from this bitch's ass.

Rumor- This is a Team Samantha meeting, so Wilma, take your ass back to Bedrock.

Wilma- It doesn't look like a meeting... it looks like you guys are just having lunch.

Katrina- BITCH, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

"Come on then, bitch!! Come on!!"

Rumor- What's that all about?

Dana- It sounds like Laurie Breeze.

Dynamite- I'm eating my meal. If bitches wanna fight, let 'em.

In the next room over, Laurie is being restrained by the 6' 180 lb Xena looking Lucy Thunder. Laurie appears very, very upset as she tries to get around the much larger women to Baby Liz, who's standing up with only a black tank top on and her black panties.

Liz- Let her go, let her go. That bitch couldn't beat an egg.

Lucy- Shut up, Liz.

Liz- Laurie, you telling everybody that you beat me? Bitch, you and a bunch of other people jumped me. You telling people I got no pride? You're a fucking coward, Laurie, just like your friend Wynona and just like your blonde bestie nestie falcon's crestie Joanne.

Laurie- Liz, I'm going to knock you out again!

Nikky Smalls walks in and immediately goes to Laurie. The 5'6" 140 lb Black girl, who is by far the most well known fighter on this roster, whispers in Laurie's ear.

Nikky- Whoa, whoa, whoa. You've got a fight in less than two hours. She isn't worth it. You have to focus on Brittany Bullworth. Hey! Hey! Look at me. You have a fight in less than two hours. Stop it. Brit isn't going to go easy on you just because you got wound up in here. You have to focus. Be a professional.


Liz- Laurie, how about this... you say I have no Lakota pride. Fuck the Lakota, and that's my last name, bitch. And fuck you too.

Lucy- (to Nikky) You got Laurie?

Nikky- I got her. (Kathy walks in as well and hugs Laurie tightly while Liz pulls a chocolate moon pie out of her bag and quickly shoves it in her mouth)

Kathy- I've been told that good ole hug and a friendly tickle always eases the mood.

Lucy walks up to Liz, who is still holding a bottle of beer and is staring at Lucy with her cheeks completely expanded like she's either got a mouth full of air, or a mouth full of something.

Lucy- You're gonna learn some respect around here and--- uggghhhh!!!!

Liz claps her hands onto her cheeks and sends the moon pie debris right in Lucy's face.

Liz- Aha... ha... ha... AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Lucy pulls some of the chocolate from her hair and looks at it... she's twitching... her mouth turns to a sneer and she jumps on Liz, grabbing her by her throat with both hands and choking her.

Lucy- You fucking bitch!!!!!

Nikky- Somebody come help!!!

It takes Nikky, Kathy, Dana, Porsche, Justice, and White Tiger to pull Lucy off of Liz. Liz gets back to her feet.

Liz- Alright bitch, let's fight.

Lucy- Let me go before this bitch tries to cheap shot me.

Liz- Whatever.

Liz looks at the girls and turns, falling on her bed and dropping the bottle. Laurie walks out, only to find herself having to restrain Joanne, who's in an argument with Praggy, while Shawna is off to the side laughing.

Praggy- Keep talking, you overrated blonde bitch! I heard Lauren Hall kicked your ass! I hope I fight you; I'll beat you like I beat Laurie!

(Rumor- What the fuck is a "Lauren Hall?" That sounds like the name of a college dormitory. Doesn't surprise me that Joanne lost to her, even though I don't know who she is. Joanne loves to lose.)

Joanne- I'm so gonna beat both you bitches!! After I beat Kathy, I'm so totally gonna beat your asses!!!

Kathy- What? I'm not saying I'm going to beat you. I don't have anything against you; I just want a fair fight? Why are you so mad at me?

Shawna- I've beaten you twice, Joanne. Both times, you walked away humiliated and stripped naked with your juices running down your legs.

Kathy- I hope it was apple juice... but that would be sad because that would mean Joanne tried to fight while drinking apple juice and she wasted it.

(Porsche- This house is an insane asylum.)

Justice- Laurie Breeze, your ride is here.

Laurie gives her hugs to her teammates and a hug for Joanne as she heads to the gym to get some preparation in before her fight. Bully Brit has been there for much of the day with both Katora and Karma. Team Rachel is next to leave and when Samantha arrives for her team, Liz is still in bed.

(Samantha- If it isn't one thing, it's always another. I knew I might have a problem with some of these girls, but you just have to check them. Let them know that you care, but let them know that you won't tolerate any bullshit. Victoria got in the van this time, for some reason. I walked upstairs to Liz's room and this bitch is lying on her stomach on her bed and the room smells like beer, weed, and pussy.)

Samantha- Bitch, get the fuck up right now!

Liz- (sleepy) I don't wanna go. Fuck it, it's not my fight.

Samantha- You're acting like you've got a choice.

Samantha grabs Liz by her shirt and twists the back, causing Liz some discomfort and the tall black haired Liz rolls onto her back, sort pulling Samantha off balance, then Liz sits up and grabs Sam around her waist.

Samantha- Bitch, you must be losing your fucking mind.

Samantha turns with Liz's momentum and sweeps the black haired girl's legs out from under her, sending Liz down on her butt. Samantha puts her hands on her hips and looks down at Liz, but Liz throws a punch right below Samantha's navel and Samantha bends and backs up with an "OUGH!"

(Samantha- She got me. I left myself open and she took advantage of it. I was more surprised than hurt; that's a very sensitive area.)

Samantha- Come on, swing. Swing, bitch.

Liz stands up and Samantha springs forward, nailing Liz's chin with a right cross. The black haired girl hits the floor unconscious. Samantha throws Liz, who is just as tall and weighs only four pounds less, over her shoulder and carries her down the stairs and out of the house.

Both teams slowly file in to the gym and start filling out the bleachers. The first fight of season two of the Ultimate Catfighter is about to kick off with the Badlands scrapper Laurie Breeze from team Rachel taking on Karate expert Brittany "the Bully Brit" Bullworth from team Samantha. The tension in the air is a curious mix palpable and nonchalant... Although a good measure of the amassed fighters are watching the cage with intense interest and nerves as they will their teams fighter on there are a handful who simply couldn't give a fuck...

(Wildcat - Lets be honest... this is a scrubs fight. You got two bitches in the cage who were so fucking pathetic they didn't even make the first draft. Bottom line is I'd break either one of those two sluts in half)

(Victoria - I don't even know why Sam dragged me out of bed to watch this shit...)

There's one girl in particular who finds herself torn... eerily silent where she's normally one of the most vocal girls in the room

(Joanne - The thing is like... Laurie's my BFF! I couldn't like, go shouting out for Brat Bully... but then like, I can't go shouting out for Laurie either because she's on the other team and Sam would like totally trash me in training later... this is totally harsh...)

The 5'1" Laurie walks into the cage, but right now she just looks like 111lbs of nerves. Dressed in a dark green and brown edged shorts and sports bra she's hoping back and forth, stretching out readying herself...

Brittany on the other hand is bouncing on her toes full of determination and a vicious glint, not a sign of nervousness in sight. She's the same height as Laurie at 5'1" but it a little lighter at a slight 99lbs. She's dressed in white Karate Gi pants and a pink sports bra with yellow trim, showing off her toned, defined abs and small outie navel. Despite the twelve pound weight disadvantage many consider her the favourite here. She's toned, hungry and resolute.

Brittany - Looking a little soft around the tummy there Laurie, bad day to wear shorts by the look of it

(Gemma - Right from the get go Brit starts off with her trash talk shit. We knew that was coming but the fight hadn't even started yet)

(Wildcat - you know, that Brat girl was at least mildly entertaining. Truth is I didn't really pay attention to the fight. What's the point? Have you seen the size on those two? The only way they'd hurt me is if I tripped over their midget asses...)

Brittany - And wow... Green and Brown? Really? You know this is going out on TV right?

(Rumor- It's a little more than ironic that Laurie Breeze was dressed in green and brown... two colors that are commonly associated with shit.)

Laurie - Shut your damn mouth Brit...

Brittany - oh right! You're a Cherokee or something right? Me lighting fist! You jelly belly!

(Rachel - a part of me really wishes that Brittany was on my team. I'd like to see her try those lines with me standing over her...)

The bell rings out and Laurie flies at Brit!

Laurie - UUUGGGHHH!!!!

Like a bolt of lightning Brit ducks down low and fires our a hard straight right fist into Laurie's soft belly! With Laurie's momentum she effectively impales herself and staggers back hurt. Brit straightens up and chuckles, seeing the hurt in Laurie's eyes. She casually starts to circle her foe

Sam - DAMN IT BRIT!!! FOLLOW UP FASTER!!!

(Samantha - this was my biggest worry when it comes to Brit. I just don't know what her motivation is. She says she wants to be a great fighter, the best even. But the best don't mess. We see a girl hurt? We pile on more hurt. All this teasing and goading? I mean how the fuck can someone be a black belt in Karate and still lack discipline?)

(Rachel- I found it slightly amusing that 'Coach Samantha' was upset with her fighter for taunting and not following up. Samantha does it all of the time.)

Laurie circles Brit, her hands held high but Brit starts to tease and taunt with her posture, her hands down low and swaying her head. Laurie steps in with a heavy right hand looking to take that head off Brit's shoulders but the girl is too fast, dipping to her left and throwing a wide counter hook liver shot that buckles Laurie before backing off.

Laurie runs in again and yet again get's punished by a lightning fast strike from Brit. This time it's a straight right, just below the solar plexus and just like before she backs off leaving Laurie to gasp while she smiles and dances away

Samantha - Damn it Brit!!! You're not gonna win throwing one fucking punch at a time!

(Rachel - this was a hard one to gauge. It was clear that Brittany had fallen into her old ways of humiliating and teasing her opponents. Like a cat toying with a mouse you could say... the suffering is far more important than the kill. Against any other of my fighters I wouldn't be concerned, they'd rally and pound that cockiness out of her, but against Laurie? Well, she doesn't strike me as the most confident girl I know and this kind of humiliation could start to get to her head. She needs to land some hits and quickly)

Brit - what's wrong tubby? Out of breath?

Laurie - Fuck you Brit! I'll shoOOMMMPPPFFFF!!

Brit leaned in with a high left hook but at the last second pulled her arms back before thrusting her foot out fast! The momentum shift caused her heel to slam into Laurie's stomach so hard it knocked legs from under her and she landed in a heap face first a metre backwards

Laurie - oouuuugghhhh.....fuck.......

Laurie gets to her knees clutching her stomach. That was one hell of a shot to take and you could see the agony written all over her. But the tide seems to be shifting. The whole crowd are shouting and baying at Brit who just stands there waiting for her opponent to get up. At first she's bouncing and smiling, full of confidence as she waits for the winded Laurie to rise but as soon as the shouting and the chanting start she get's uneasy... even frustrated...

Brit - Hey... HEY!!! SHUT UP!!!! This is MY FIGHT!!!!

Rumor - What the fuck are you doing?!?!?! Get her back!!! Choke her out!!!!

Shawna - Kick her fucking ribs in!!! hit her you stupid cxnt!!!!

Samantha - For Fuck Sake Brit!!! DO SOMETHING!!!

(Samantha- People are going to say that I fight with taunting and moving. But I know what I'm doing. There's an obvious method to the madness and if you don't know how to fight that way, you're just wasting rounds and giving your opponent opportunities. You can only let a fish swim with a hook in her mouth for so long. It was time to real that fish in.)

Gemma can be seen whispering to Wilma and then, Wilma starts shouting out...

Wilma - HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *snort!* You're right!!!! She doesn't know what to do! BWAH HAHAHAHAHAAAA! *snort!* She's got no ground game!!!!

Brit - HEY! I... I so DO have a ground game! Shut the fuck up!

Wilma - Or what? You'll beat me up? All I have to do is lay down to beat you! Hahahahaha! *snort!*

(Lucky Star - I'd lay down with Wilma.... I've had all of my shots)

Wildcat - The geek's right! This bitch got no game!!!

Brit - I'll show you a fucking ground game!
She stomps towards Laurie who's on her knees doubled up still in agony when

Brit - AAAUUUGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Laurie slams a hard elbow right into the pit of her stomach then scrambles to her feet fast and rams a knee into the still doubled over Brit, raising her clean off the floor! Gripping the gasping blonde's hair she steps back then jumps! Falling down fast she lands into a seated position but keeps a hold of Brits hair tightly, effectively dragging her down with her and slamming her face first into the solid floor!

Brit - Uuuuuggghhhhhhh...........

(Samantha- Laurie Breeze uses a facebuster... one of my moves against one of my fighters. It really didn't sit well with me.)

Laurie shows a little inexperience here and rolls Brit onto her back. Gemma can be heard screaming from cage side, telling her to get her back and slip on a choke hold but Laurie's in her own world now... payback firmly on her mind. She mounts the smaller girl and sits down HARD! Forcing an 'OOMMPPHHH!!!' from her lips before she slams fist after fist into her face! Brit, in her defence does a good job covering up but that's all she can do as hit after hit is rained down upon her. A slicing right hook cuts her left eyebrow then a thunderous left hammerfist breaks through her guard and cracks her nose.

The ref is moments away from stopping it until

*DING DING!*

The bell rings saving Brit for the time being. Laurie gets up, hate in her eyes but fire in her heart while Brit on the other hand staggers back to her corner, ashen white and on shaking legs

Rachel - ok Laurie Breeze, that round didn't start out too well but you finished it strong. Your opponent landed less than a hand full of punches. But that being said, she was in control most of the fight and I never leave anything to chance. An official's judgment cannot be trusted. Trust your fists and end this fight. You say you have Lakota blood in you. Show me.

Laurie - oh jeez Ms Apache... that kick really hurt...

Gemma - then all the more reason to not let her land another one

Rachel - Gemma's right. You need to take this fight down to the ground. She didn't have any answers for you when it went to the mat. She's cut, she's shaken and she's shocked. Now you need to finish her. As soon as the bell rings this is what you do....

Meanwhile in Brit's corner...

Samantha – Are you happy now? You see where all your showboating has got you? Look at you all busted open! Why the hell didn't you follow up when you had her stunned?!?!?!

Brit - I... I don't... oh god it hurts... OUCH!!! Would you be careful!

Katora - You want me to stop the bleeding or not?

Samantha - Hey! You pay attention to me and you do it right now! It's pretty damn clear you're about as much use on the mats as a dildo in a nunnery! You need to keep this fight standing, you got me? If she takes you down, you scramble! You're smaller, you're pretty damn strong for your size, use it! She's not a natural grappler, you should be able to break away! And when the fight goes standing? I swear to god you better throw more than one punch at a time or I'll climb in there and knock you out myself! You wanna showboat? That's fine... but do it AFTER you've knocked her the fuck out!

(Samantha- This is a timed fight and a different format. You don't have time to throw a couple of rinky dink punches and then, dance around. Judges judge on not only the action, but on something called "ring generalship." That's control and you ain't controlling shit when you're doing what she was doing)

The ref clears the ring of the corner staff and coaches and with a wave of his hand, round two starts!

*DING DING!*

As soon as the bell is run Laurie charges in like a bull! Brit staggers like a rabbit in a head light until they SLAM together and Laurie's momentum sends then crashing into the cage wall! Laurie wraps her arms around Brit quickly and lifts her up in a bear hug

Brit - AAAAAGGGHHH!!! G... Get off me you fucking pig! UUGGGHHH!!! OOUULLFFF!!! UUGGNNN!!!

Samantha- Sweep and take her down. Bring you right leg inside and around her left one and lean forward. What the fuck are you doing?

(Rumor- It was hilarious.)

Laurie starts slamming her back into the cage over and over again, each hit knocking the air out of her faster and faster but 20 seconds into the bear hug it's clear that Laurie's energy is draining... swapping tactics she turns and falls forward quickly! Smashing Brits lower back into the floor in a vicious spine buster slam!

Samantha- Get up!!! You've gotta get up; bring your legs up and block the mount!!

Brit - AAAAIIIIIIEEEEE!!!!

Laurie scrambles over her stunned opponents thighs and gets into another full mount but before she can start raining down more punches Brit bucks and thrashes wildly. Desperate to escape she tosses and turns, all panic and no form until she's spun herself face down... Laurie thinks fast....

Leaning back she tucks Brit's ankles under her armpits, locking them in tight... then moving her position so she's sat on Brits bum she reaches forward and grips Brit's wrists, taking one in each hand until the hold is locked then she leans back... Laurie's lethal take on the surf board hold!

Brit - Fuck... fuck! AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

As Laurie leans back Brits whole upper body is wrenched off the floor, her spine arched viciously as her shoulders are jarred backwards agonisingly!

Laurie - 4 minutes on the clock girl... you're going nowhere! GIVE IT UP!!!

Samantha- Relax! That move doesn't even hurt that much. Pull back on your arms and start to rock left and right!. You need to get her off balance. Buck yourself out of that!

Katora- She is not listening. She is just not listening.

Justine- What the fuck, man? What the fuck?

Laurie screams, rocking back and forth harder and harder. Each movement forcing a shriek from the tortured Brit, Her spine already numb from the slam and bear hug she took earlier doesn't help things either... soon despite the cries of encouragement and support coming from her team mates, tears form and fall from her eyes, the pain just too much to bare

Brit - I... I give up!!! I give up!!! Get this bitch off me!!!!

The ref rushes in to break the hold and raises Laurie's arm in victory as Brit limps off dejected

Ref- The winner by second round Submission and advancing to the Next Round... Laurie Breeze!

Gemma - Win by Submission? don't I remember some stubborn bitch telling me they couldn't wrestle?

Laurie gives Gemma a hug as the fighters start to file out of the gym

(Praggy - isn't that fucking sweet... Laurie and Gemma lezing it up. I bet when it's my turn to fight that tattooed slut doesn't even give me a second look. I mean come on! Why waste your time teaching the girls with no hope? I can win this damn thing!)

(Rachel- Laurie did it. Brittany couldn't handle the close contact style Laurie threw out in the second round and without her stand up game she was totally outclassed. I will admit I was surprised when Laurie sunk in that submission hold... I would have thought this would end with a ground and pound but It's the best result all round for Laurie. She'll have a lot more confidence should the fight hit the mat from now on)

(Joanne - Ya know.. I saw Sam look over at me when that bitch Brit was locked in Laurie's Hang Ten Surfboard hold... everyone else was shouting out encouragement to Brit but, like, Laurie's my girl! No way I was gonna shout her down! Maybe Sam'll come at me in the text training sesh for that.. But I don't care, even if I can't be by Laurie's side in these stupid teams, I'll always have her back!)

(Rumor - that wasn't even a fight! All we saw was Laurie get picked apart by a fighter who has a little striking skill to her game and then Brit getting destroyed by a fighter who has a rudimentary knowledge of grappling. I can do it all! No way any of these bitches can touch me! I was confident before.... But now I'm fucking untouchable!)

(Wilma - I hope they sanitize that cage later. Laurie was sweating a lot and Brit bled all over the place... you know there's a blood disease from Patagonia that can rot your flesh from the inside out? Brit looks like she has a tan... I bet she's taken Vacations all over the world.... They better sanitize that cage...)

Brittany is crying, but Samantha puts her arms around the little blonde and hugs her as Brit rests her head on Samantha's chest.

Samantha- It's okay, baby. It's okay. Next time, listen to the strategy we put forth. You had her.

(Samantha- Laurie Br-Easy didn't do anything impressive in there. We had a strategy and Brit didn't execute it. I am pretty comfortable knowing that since I get to pick the first fight, I can send Dana Black or Dynamite Quinn against Laurie Breeze, and probably wouldn't even have to coach them. I told my team not to mess with Laurie; let her think she's done something.)

Rumor- Laurie, you call that fighting? That was awful. I hope I get to fight you; you're soft and fluffy like a pillow and you're as useful in a fight as a pillow too.

Lucy- Yeah, because pillows can suffocate you, bitch!!

Rumor- Lucy, we've got some unfinished business and I hope we get to it soon.

Lucy- Anytime, Rumor.

Rachel- (to Lucy) That is enough. We have won.

Samantha- But we've got a long way to go, Rachel. A long way to go.

Dynamite Quinn approaches Bully Brit, who is still crying.

Dynamite- I sparred with you for four fooking days to prepare you for this fight. I'm a fooking Olympic style wrestler, won me a fooking gold medal. I told you what to do, but did you listen? No! You wasted my fooking time! You fooking suck!! (pointing at Laurie) And you... I guess that makes us the last two 5'1" girls left in the tournament, eh? If we face each other, I hope you try to take me to the ground. I'll make ground beef patties out of your flower arse!

Next time: Samantha tries to rally her team as the next fight is announced and Team Rachel coming in high off their victory have to deal with some unexpected friction in the camp. Lucky Star makes her intentions known and two more fighters get ready to face off!

Hmm, Laurie breezes past Brit - or is that 'bully's her way past Brit? LOL!  ::)

Great writing with snazzy, teasy & sleazy dialogue!  :P :D ;)

Hugs
Kayla

hey Kayla, Gemma, Laurie and I are all working together on this, and Joanne's soon to be joining us with her ideas, so four heads are better than one I guess. If you have any ideas for the series, let us know. And hey, Samantha may just break the "cold war" between you two and call you down to meet Rumor.  ;)

An interesting contrast to the author herself. After all, when guys are around, Gemma spends most of the time flat on her back. :o

Inspired dialogue in this chapter, Gems. Great job.



Marie

Another great chapter, Gemma!  Howard and you are creating something special here!  Congratulations Laurie!  That bitch needed to be put in her place....and you didn't even need my banjo! ;)

Thank you Jonica, Pete, Jessika, and Laurie.  :D

Like I said, I'm just thankful to have Laurie and Gemma helping me. I've been sick; I've been busy; I've been tired. But they keep me motivated and Gemma and I have always held each other up. It's just good to have a friend like that on this site again. We send each other work; we merge what we've typed together and one of us posts it. It truly is a team effort and I am just so honored to have these ladies working with me.  8) :)

Howard, I'm honored to be a small part of this 'n to be able to work with you 'n Gemma, learning from you both!

My post-fight 'Talking Head Interview' will be coming very very soon, they just have to edit out the ramblings 'n put it all together in a way that it looks like I know what I'm talking about ... Don't worry, Gemma, I was nice to ya ... I think.

Anyways, the 'interview' will be 'on the air' tonight!

xoxo

~L~

POST FIGHT INTERVIEW

Back at the house, about an hour after the fight, in the Interview Room, lights and cameras set up 'n running:

"These are called, what? ... Talking Head Interviews? Hmmm, I never knew that. Cool. Like that old band, huh. That where they got the name? ... Okay, how do we start? Oh. Go ahead. Fire away.

(First off....Congrats on winning the fight against a very tough opponent)

Thanks! I made it into the house! Yay, me! It still hasn't really hit me yet. I'm just glad I didn't make a total ass of myself on tv. I mean, I was pretty confident I could beat Brit. But anything can happen in a fight, ya know? I just didn't want it to happen to me. I did what I had to do to make sure that didn't happen.

(on Gemma's one-on-one training sessions)

Hell, I probably coulda beat Brit even if I didn't get the extra training from Gemma. It woulda been a little harder but, come on, I know what I can do. Rachel thought I needed extra help. She wants a strong team, I accept that. I don't have to agree with it but I accept it. Don't get me wrong, Gemma did teach me some stuff. I didn't know jack squat about wrestling and 'ground game'. It pisses me off that I have to admit that, specially with our history, but I gotta give her some credit. This doesn't mean we're BFFs now. Not gonna happen. No way, no how.

(on being the 'undercat')

I'll always be the 'undercat'. I know nobody gave me a snowball's chance in hell. I have the least experience. I wasn't picked by either captain. I'm a munchkin, a smurf. I'm too nice. You know what? That's fine. I want them to freaken underestimate me. Brit underestimated me, look where it got her. I think I opened some eyes out there in that cage tonight.

(the first round)

Yeah, Brit is tough. She hurt me a few times. She knocked me down. More than once. I got back up, didn't I? I kept getting back up. Look. I'll come right out 'n say it. Brit's a freaken bully. A bully expects you to fall down 'n stay down. I know. I've dealt with bullies my whole life. When you get back up again, no matter how much it hurts, they don't know how to deal with that. I saw that in her eyes. That's when I knew I had her. Making her submit 'n say 'I give' was really sweet!

(on future opponents)

Dynamite 'Fooking' Quinn is already yipping at me. She knows where I am. Defnitely Shawna. Too bad Praggy is on my team, I want another shot at her. And Baby Liz, she tried to start shit with me before my fight. She's a freaken embarrassment to herself 'n anyone with Lakota blood. I'll be happy to kick that heifer's fat ass back to the reservation.

(Joanne?)

We both know it could happen. I don't wanna have to think about it. We'll cross that bridge if we get to it.

(You're right, it could happen. Are you ready to go all out against her? And who do you think would win?)

Shit, you're not making this easy for me, huh? What part of 'We'll cross that bridge if we get to it' don't you understand! Moving on.

(I think that should do it. Any ... )

Wait. Just one more thing I need to say. If that's okay? I heard about some of the comments the other girls made about me. About the way I look.

(We weren't going to bring that up. Some of that can easily be edited out.)

No, leave it in. Please. I don't mind. They were just being catty bitches. Like usual. I'll never be mistaken for a supermodel. But I'm proud of who I am now. It took me a long time to get to where I can actually say that. See, I'm a recovering bulimic. From back in high school, when I was a 4'9" freshman, the shortest girl in school, and the bigger girls would make fun of me. When they weren't kicking the crud outta me! It was hell, but I survived, I fought back, it made me strong. Now I help counsel girls back home with eating disorders through our church. Me being on this show, in this house, wearing what I choose to wear in that cage on national tv, is my way of showing those girls that they can be damn proud of who they are. If I can do it, so can they!

(and that's a wrap!)

Cool! Thanks! Let's do this again sometime!

~Laurie~

Laurie, this was a really well done interview. There was an interview with Samantha I was planning on posting yesterday, but I really wasn't feeling well, so you posting this and showing depth to your character as well as connecting her to the real good person that you are helps all the more. I commend you on your wonderful work as a writer and on your real work in your real life.

Today is Samantha's birthday... and that means there may be a fight today. I can't promise anything, but we'll see...  ;)

And now, we rejoin the Ricky Rancid Radio Show, with your hosts, Ricky Rancid and Bunny Holliday...

Ricky- So, we were talking about the Laurie Breeze interview that aired last night and we just played the entire interview. It didn't take long to get some reaction because we are now joined by Rumor Winfield, a silver medalist in freestyle fighting and a member of Team Samantha. Rumor, you said you called in to give a reaction to this interview, so we're going to just let you speak.

Rumor- Thank you, Ricky. I'm a little tired, but I've got my radio alarm and this interview is what woke me up and I'm just kinda shocked. Well, I'm not shocked by it really, I'm not surprised because Laurie Breeze says this type of stuff. I think she's been hanging around Gemma Rox too much because she's doing what Gemma does.

Ricky- What do you mean?

Rumor- Samantha said it; Kayla said it; Gemma Rox switches from being a bad ass to playing the victim. Everybody kicked her ass and she whines about it. She called me "a bitch with a mouth." Well, I know Gemma Rox couldn't close my mouth because that dumb bitch doesn't even know how to close her own. Laurie Breeze came into the house all nicey nicey and smiling and all this other bullshit, but then, she starts dropping f-bombs and acting like she's going to win. She gives this stupid interview and talks about how she knew she was going to beat Brit. She didn't know anything. She didn't do anything to win that match and if anything, she got exposed.

Ricky- Well, she did win the match.

Rumor- She won, but only because Brit didn't do shit. Let's be honest, Brit sucks. She's not a complete fighter and she cracks under pressure like an egg. We knew that; why would a black belt in karate not get picked? Because she's not that good. Laurie Breeze beat a girl who took her foot off the gas and now, Laurie Breeze is walking around acting like her shit don't stink when she fought like shit and barely survived.

Ricky- She cited her training with Gemma Rox as one of the reasons why she improved.

Rumor- Improved? God, how bad was she before that? Girls like Laurie are a dime a dozen; she wants to play in this world and she was set up against a weak ass little girl who had no business being here. Laurie is a joke. Do some sit ups and stop acting like all that fat in your cheeks is being stuffed in your ears. You are not good at all. Laurie Breeze talks about Dynamite Quinn and says, "oh she knows where to find me." Bitch, that just says you won't be going to look for her because you know she'll beat your ass.

Ricky- Now, in her defense, she has done a lot of charity work and has had a pretty rough upbringing.

Rumor- Who hasn't? There are at least two fighters in that house who have been in prison. Dynamite Quinn is one of them and she has a gold medal and a Master's Degree. There are a couple of fighters who have lost one, if not both parents. What does Laurie Breeze have? A victory over Baby Liz the Lakota Lush and a victory over an internet bimbo named Bully Brit. She talks about her background and all the stuff she does for kids. A background in community service may get you a certificate back home someday, but that and a $1.50 will get you a ride on the bus as far as being a fighter is concerned. You suck and you know you suck, either that, or they've brainwashed you into thinking you're worth a shit. Fighters train every day, Laurie; you got lucky and now, you think you're a fighter.

Ricky- We had heard that you were outspoken, Rumor, but this is really something. Thank you so much for calling in.

Rumor- I just heard this and I can't believe her nerve. And that's that whole team, really. They're a bunch of losers and wannabes. "Perfect 10" Porsche Green is a joke; her undefeated record is a product of luck. She couldn't fight her way off of her own toilet. Praggy probably has more losses than wins and most of them are by submission. How the fuck can you say you'll do well in fighting because you have a background in badminton? Nikky Smalls has gold medals and world titles, but she's a boxer and this isn't boxing. Gemma Rox is a real dumb ass to pick her to win it all. Lucy Thunder is a big dumb bingo hall wrestler; Kathy would rather bake cupcakes than fight, and Lucky Star is more interested in sucking bedposts. Wilma is okay at fighting, not great... Wildcat never was anybody anyway. That old bitch just sits around the house drinking beer and saying she could beat anybody. Prove it. White Tiger is a manic depressive. All that bitch does is play her guitar and look scared. Match me up with anybody on that stupid team and I'm to win, or anybody on my team.

Ricky- Rumor, you've guaranteed that you will win. Are you sticking with that?

Rumor- Why wouldn't I? Look who I'm fighting. Look who I'm in the house with.

Ricky- The field is really deep.

Rumor- Look, I think you guys think that because there are more girls in the house than last season, that somehow, it's a deeper field. None of those girls is the next Kayla or the next Jessika. Kayla and Jessika trained hard; they put their best into the gym so that they could be the best when they fought. As much as I'm not a Rachel fan or a Samantha fan, they are the same too. Laurie Breeze doesn't train; the most exercise she gets is when she's squeezing into her jeans in the morning. She looks like a snowman and I would tell her that to her face. She has so much shit to talk now, but she better hope she does fight her friend Joanne with that pathetic ass losing streak or somebody like Shawna who has no experience fighting on this level, or somebody like Baby Liz, who is lazy, does drugs, and doesn't care if she wins or loses... or you want to fight your friend Joanne, who hasn't won a fight in how long? You want to pad your record and try to look good by fighting other suck asses like you. I thought Lakota was a warrior tribe. You're a fucking joke, Laurie Breeze.

Ricky- Rumor, by making those sorts of comments about the women on your own team, aren't you throwing them under the bus?

Rumor- Look... I don't throw people under the bus; I speak the truth. That's how it was at the Olympics and that's how it is now. If anybody has a problem with something I say, on the radio or otherwise, like that wimpy ass bitch said, you know where to find me. And I'm on Team Samantha, but this is still a tournament and all ten girls on Team Samantha can't be the Ultimate Catfighter. That's only for one. And that's going to be me.

Ricky- Thanks, Rumor.

Rumor- It was my pleasure. Thanks for letting me vent.

Good stuff, Laurie and Howard! 

:D

"You know, Ricky, I heard all the 'nice' things that Rumor had to say about me and I just had to laugh. I mean, come on. Seriously? Seriously?

First, she says I came on national tv 'n played the 'victim'. I'd like to know how exactly. I stopped being a victim a long time ago.

Brit was a tough opponent. I didn't say that I knew I could beat her because she wasn't. I knew I could beat her because I know that no matter how many times she knocked me down, I was gonna keep getting back up until they had to carry me out. She WANTED to win, I HAD to win. Big difference. A 'victim' woulda stayed down 'n crawled away. Not my style.

I never said I was the greatest. I don't lie. I know I'm not. I may win, I may lose, but either way the other girl in the cage with me is gonna know she was in a fight. No, a WAR. I'll break every rule if I have to. It's not about WINNING, it's SURVIVING.

I know all about surviving. I got picked on, harassed 'n had my butt kicked in school by bullies. That all stopped when I stopped running away. I stood up to them. I fought back. I paid the price for fighting back but it was damn worth it. I fought my ass off to earn their respect, they never bothered me again. Would a 'victim' fight back? Ummm, do I really have to answer that?

No, Rumor, I wasn't in the Olympics like you. I don't have a gold medal, I don't have a Master's Degree like Quinn. My Dad died when I was 13 'n I had to start working to help my Mom. But, I did what I had to do. Hey, you can't go back 'n change things, you know? You take what you're given and make the best of it. A 'victim' would sit 'n bitch about her bad breaks. I finished high school, was All-State three years in freestyle and butterfly, got a scholarship, went to college, got my Bachelor's Degree, and worked the entire time.

I still swim laps non-stop an hour a day every day, switching from butterfly to freestyle with no break. In the summers when I lifeguard, I try for two hours a day. I may not hit the gym or weights 'n look like some buff muscle chick. But you know what? I'll match my workout regimen against anyone else's. You all may have it over me in the gym but come on over to the pool any time if you're feeling lucky. I'll smoke your ass right out of the water 'n that's just not bragging. That's a fact.

You want to know the REAL reason I'm not a 'victim', Rumor? I won the toughest fight of my life when I finally beat bulimia. And that's all I'm gonna say about that.

I didn't join this to win friends. I didn't come here to be nice to everybody. But I'm not gonna change who I am, not gonna strut around the house talking trash 'n starting shit. I'll treat you with respect. To a point. And even if you don't respect me now, by the time this is over, whether I win or lose, you're gonna. I'm gonna make you respect me.

Does that sound like a 'victim'?"

~Laurie~

Frankie J- This is Frankie J. and we are joined by the former OPW World Champion, the 2007 Queen of the Ring, and the current OPW Television Champion and coach on Ultimate Catfighter, Samantha. Samantha, Gemma Rox did an interview with me a while back where she said you "raped" her, and you wanted to respond to it.

Samantha- If I raped her, why did she shake my hand after the match? There's absolutely nothing you can say about that Frankie, and really, that's not why I'm here. I wanted to announce that I am returning to the ring and I will be facing Supergirl Kara Cunningham in my return match. I'm not completely healed up after the riot and the beating and violations I suffered in London, but I've been training with Team Samantha and training with my girls, and all their enthusiasm has spilled down to me. I'm ready to get back in there.

F- Why did you pick Kara? She's an accomplished Greco-Roman wrestler and is very proficient in the Russian combat style of Sambo. In fact, she is a former US National Champion in wrestling. At 6'1" she's also four inches taller than you are and she's definitely shown improvement since her time on Ultimate Catfighter.

Samantha- Hey, I'm a champion. I have to defend my title against the best, right? Kara is all of those things you said she is and that's why I'm fighting her. She deserves a shot at my title and I'm going to give it to her. She came up to me months ago, back when I barely knew who she was and wanted a crack at me... now, just like Gemma Rox, she's going to get it. I just hope that when I beat her, she won't be whining and making up excuses like Gemma is.

F- Why are you so hard on Gemma?

Samantha- Why is Gemma so hard on me? Why are all you media motherfuckers so hard on me? What do I ever do other than talk the talk and walk the walk? I get beaten half to death by a mob of racist drunks, and no one in the media expresses any sympathy for me. This bitch says I raped her and you just eat that up, Frankie. Now, I'm a rapist. But like I said, why the fuck did she shake my hand after the match if I raped her? I don't think she knows what rape is.

F- Maybe she was lost in the moment.

Samantha- Maybe she's full of shit. Did you know that last week, she was training Laurie Breeze after Team Rachel's time was up and when my team came in, she was like, "Oh Sam, you beat me fair and square and I want to talk to you when you have the time." Do you think a rape victim would act that way towards the rapist? Ask Laurie what happened. Ask Laurie if that dumb bitch didn't come up to me and try to strike up a conversation after she claimed I raped her.

F- Okay, she is referring to the point in the match where you put her in the sharpshooter and fondled her private parts.

Samantha- But I said I was going to do that. How many bitches has Kayla stripped naked and dry humped in the ring? She's praised for that. How many crotch kicks has she done? She's praised for that. Why do I always get the bad rap, huh? Because I'm biracial, beautiful, and I brag on my beauty and I back up my bragging? I said I was going to make that bitch cum and when I did, she complained and called me a rapist. But she shook my hand after the match and acted like we were friends when she saw me last week. Did I scramble her brains that much? Did I bust her ass that much? Then, I heard a rumor that she wanted me to apologize for fracturing her back... bitch, it's a fucking fight. If you didn't want to get hurt, then you shouldn't have fought me. All she's done is try to injure people. She tried to break Beth's neck; she tried to injure Becky Star; if she could've power bombed me off the top rope, she would've done it. She had it coming for all the ones she hurt. It's called karma.

F- She said you crossed the line.

Samantha- I know what she said, Frankie. She said that after I did what I did, she didn't get up and say, "good fight; you got me." She got up and hated herself. But see... she did say, "good fight; you got me" when she shook my hand. I don't know who Gemma Rox is. One minute, she's this bad ass who'll take on all comers and the next minute, she's this whining crybaby who goes into depressions every time she has to get out of her comfort zone and blames her opponents for her losses. She told you that she didn't want to talk about me, but that bitch sure did have a lot to say, huh? She is the one who crossed the line when she called me a rapist. See Frankie, I know what a rapist is. I've been raped. And it scarred me for the rest of my fucking life and for some tattooed bitch who delays fights, talks shit and doesn't back it up, and makes every excuse from being inexperienced to not having good trainers to all this other bullshit when the truth is that she wasn't good enough to beat me... for someone like that to call me a rapist for doing what I said I was going to do, something that she must not have thought was that bad because she shook my hand afterward and came up to me last week and didn't bring it up... for her to call me a rapist is disrespectful and hurtful. I respect her as a fighter... but I'll never respect her as a person. She got me with some good shots in that match; I have no problem admitting that she gave a good effort... but calling me a rapist, comparing me to the pieces of shit who altered my life and made me look in the mirror every day, from that point to this morning and question myself as a woman, question my fucking value... made me want to fucking kill myself as a teenage girl... this bitch calling me a rapist...

F- Samantha, if--

Samantha- If someone raped me in a match... if I could... if some fucking body would dare try to fucking rape me in a match!!!!! You think I would get up and shake her hand and say "You beat me fair and square?" You think I would be all nice to a fucking rapist and then, when she's not around, give an interview ripping her? I'd get the fuck up and keep fucking fighting!! She'd have to fucking kill me because I know what it's like to be fucking raped; I know what it's like to be powerless... so her spine got fucked up in a fight that she wanted!!! Fucking coward!!

F- Will you two ever fight again?

Samantha- If I said "yes," how long would she delay that one? I think she needs to figure out who she is and stop being a phony ass bitch. I've never known any fighter to make so many excuses, but try to be a bad ass. When I lose, I admit it. I always have. Dig up that little blonde Canadian bitch who comes out of her hole every so often to draw attention to herself and ask her about me, if she even dares to comment, which she won't. I always admit when I get beat and I don't whine about it while I'm doing it. The match was anything goes. I'm moving on. For some reason, Glory thinks she can insert herself as the number one contender for Rachel's World Title and that's bullshit. Glory got injured and I am the number one contender.

F- I want to ask you more about Gemma...

Samantha- It's over. I'm a rapist, remember? And I think all rapists should be executed. I don't care what anybody says; Gemma Rox is a liar, a fake, and a bitch who delays fights and makes excuses when she loses. All the tattoos in the world can't cover up all those insecurities she's walking around with. I've overcome mine. She needs to overcome hers. Until then, she'll never be anything over than what I called her.

F- Laurie Breeze gave an interview after her fight with Bully Brit. Rumor Winfield was quick to respond and now, it appears a war of words has erupted between those two. Would you, as Rumor's coach, care to weigh in?

Samantha- I don't know. Laurie Breeze isn't exactly the type of person I'd want to deal with.

F- What do you mean by that?

Samantha- Laurie is fragile emotionally. I have a reputation for saying some pretty mean things and sticks and stones will break Laurie's bones, but words will apparently make her jump off a cliff. I don't have time for that; I've got a team to coach and Laurie is on the other team pretending to be lil Miss Sunshine, but saying she'll fight dirty to win. I'm sure Rachel just loved that when she heard it. Laurie asked to be a part of this, and she needs to realize that fighters talk shit back and forth. If her feelings get all hurt about that, then why the fuck did she volunteer? Anything I get involved in, I do some research to see what I'm getting into. If you can't deal with trash talk, you're not going to be able to deal with the next fighter who gets in that cage against you. And that's for anyone in that house or in this tournament. If you can't deal with words, your feelings will get hurt and we don't have time for people who want everyone to walk on eggshells around them because they're weak. This is a fucking fight tournament and people talk shit. Get over yourself.

F- Laurie has been getting really personal in her interviews.

Samantha- That's my point. If you don't want people to talk about it, then don't put it out there for it to be talked about. I was raped twice; I put it out there. If people talk about it, then that's on me more than it is on them, if they're being insensitive and insulting. Why should anybody avoid something that has been made public domain? These people ask to be a part of something, then they want the fucking rules of engagement to change. Bullshit.

F- What did you think of Laurie's performance?

Samantha- She did what she was supposed to do. We had a strategy; Rachel and Gemma had a strategy. Laurie executed their strategy; Brit didn't execute ours. It was sloppy on both ends.

F- Are you worried about Laurie Breeze? Do you see her as a threat on Rachel's team?

Samantha- I'm not worried about anybody on that team, but I'm not looking passed her. I know all about fighting shorter girls with tons of heart and potential and I also know what it's like for people to consider me to be overrated and to look passed me. You may remember a shorter girl did that and I beat her ass three times. I'm sure that when Breeze fights again, she's going to be a lot better than she was in this fight, so the fighter who I send against her has to be a lot better too.

F- What about Rumor? She not only went after Laurie, but she seemed to badmouth some of her own teammates. She also went after Team Rachel. Do you think Rumor's comments are going to fire Team Rachel up and create friction on your own team?

Samantha- Team Rachel should already be fired up, ha ha ha ha. Rumor does stuff like that and while I wasn't happy with it, I'm not really that concerned. Rumor is very outspoken and she always has been and I'm not going to hold her accountable for speaking her mind. Rumor shows up and gives her all in training and she is in great shape. So as long as that stays the same, and I have no reason to believe it won't, I don't care what she says on the radio. She's expressing her opinion. Laurie Breeze has said a lot of stuff too; she instigated that stupid back and forth with Baby Liz. She pushes, but when she gets pushed back, she can't take it.

F- You and Liz have been having some issues and---

Samantha- I'm not talking about that. I'm not going to talk about that, so just move it on.

F- You hugged Brit after the fight and you were consoling her, but it was obvious you were frustrated with her not listening to you during the fight.

Samantha- When it's over, what can you do? I was supposed to stand there and curse at her after she lost and she's crying? She knew it was her fault; I didn't need to tell her that. I'm pretty sure she'll be listening in training now. And another thing; I want what's best for these girls and when they lose, I feel it. They are on a team that has my name on it. That means something to me and they mean something to me.

F- Dynamite Quinn got in Brit's face after the loss and even took a few verbal jabs at Laurie Breeze. How do you react to that?

Samantha- Quinn will be Quinn. We paired her up with Brit so that Brit could get some experience with a fighter with a solid ground game, but Quinn owned her in every sparring session. We knew we had to strike fast and take Laurie out, because Laurie comes back and is good at striking when given an opening and Brit gave her a lot of those. Quinn was angry with Brit because Brit didn't follow the strategy, but at the same time, Quinn is a team player and stuck up for Brit and that's why she went off on Laurie.

F- Well, we're almost out of time, last question... who's going to win Ultimate Catfighter?

Samantha- (laughing) I don't know.

F- Thanks, Samantha, and happy belated birthday.

Samantha- For once, you were nice to me. Take it easy, greasy.

Fight Day...

Samantha and her team are shown arriving to the gym. The 5'9" 144 lb Samantha, with her long curly red hair, honey skin and green eyes has money safety pinned to her blouse and she's playing with her touch screen computer and blindly walks into the gym, where Team Rachel is already there.

(Samantha- So, it's a couple of days after my birthday and what am I doing? It's a fight day and I'm really wondering why I even need to be here. The fight is Victoria vs. "Perfect 10" Porsche Green. Victoria hasn't been coming to training and shows no interest in learning anything. So, as far as I'm concerned, she's not on my team anyway. I should be out celebrating.)

The teams come together and sit in the bleachers. Samantha is sitting with her team and still playing with her computer. Siena Blaze and Christina Munoz are also there.

(Lucky- So, I see Samantha and Katora sitting with their team and I know there was some friction between her and Victoria. I get up and go tell Gemma, Rachel, and Porsche. But they told me to get out of the locker room. Gemma was especially mean to me. I was just trying to help, but they said I wasn't telling them anything they didn't already know.)

Victoria is 5'10" 140 lbs with a strong build and large breasts. She has short black hair and blue eyes. She comes out in black leather jeans and a black tank top with black boots. She's smiling and getting in the cage with no care or concern on her face.

(Victoria- I'm going to fuck her up. I don't care about training; I don't care about any of these bitches. I'm here to hurt this perfect bitch and that's what I'm doing.)

"Perfect 10" Porsche Green is 5'10" 150 lbs with long reddish brown hair, honey skin, and green eyes and is dressed in her emerald green two piece lycra outfit with gold trim and gold boots. She's smiling and strutting and in character.

(Porsche- I'm nervous, very, very nervous. I really want to prove myself to all my doubters and Rachel has been pretty hard on me in training. I've never trained like this before. Victoria is supposed to be a very dangerous opponent and I'm not going in here and thinking that I'm just going to breeze right through her, no matter what my demeanor implies. This girl can hurt me; she can beat me. I've never lost a match, but there's a first time for everything and I'm scared.)

The two fighters come together for instructions and look into each other's eyes. Porsche smiles a cocky smile at Victoria and Victoria spits in Porsche's face. Porsche reels back and Victoria kicks her full force in the crotch.

Porsche- Aaaaauuuuuggggghhhh!!!

Porsche goes down on her hands and knees and the ref grabs Victoria as Rachel folds her arms and Gemma yells angrily. Lucy Thunder has to be restrained from entering the cage and attacking Victoria.

Samantha- Don't look at me. I'm not in it.

Victoria- Come on, Porsche... Perfect 10. Are you a virgin? You won't be when this is over.

Porsche looks rattled and unsure of herself as Rachel leans in.

Rachel- You see what happened.

Porsche- She... she spit on me. She spit on me... I don't know.

Rachel- Focus. You are a better fighter than she is.

Porsche- I don't know; she's--

Rachel- Silence. At some point in your life, you have to be the thing you wake up every day and pretend to be. Now is that time, Green.

The bell rings and Victoria and Porsche both seem to come to the center cautiously. Porsche has her hands a bit lower, looking to lock up and Victoria has her hands close to her sides.

Nikky- No reflexes, let it fly.

Porsche nails Vic with a hard jab and follows it up with a right cross that staggers Vic.

Gemma- Follow up!!!

Porsche moves in for a takedown, but Victoria grabs the tall redhead and slings her into the cage wall, Porsche's back taking the impact, then Vic launches a knee into Porsche's stomach, above an inch below her navel and Porsche doubles over with an "Ugghh!!" Porsche starts to double over and raise her arms to protect her face and Victoria starts slamming lefts and rights into her ribs. Each shot hurts Porsche and her arms start to come down, but Victoria misses a knee to her face and Porsche desperately grabs the black hair woman around the waist, spins her and takes her down.

Gemma- Good, Porsche!!

Nikky- You mean "perfect?"

Gemma- Nikky, you're silly! Ha ha!!

Victoria launches her head forward and butts Porsche between the eyes, then gets her right hand between the redhead's legs and squeezes her vagina.

Porsche- AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Porsche rolls on her back and Victoria starts punching her in the face repeatedly, all the while holding onto the vagina-claw ("camel toe clutch?")

Victoria- Quit, bitch! Quit and become my slave!

Gemma- Don't quit, Porsche!!

Lucy- Lock your arms around her free arm and her shoulder and roll yourself!

Porsche takes a shot to the nose and blood squirts. She rolls on her side and Victoria releases the clutch and climbs on Porsche, throwing lefts into the redhead's stomach and forcing Porsche to a fetal position, then Victoria bites Porsche's ear.

Porsche- Ahhh!!!

Nikky- You got this, Porsche! Get up; she's barely on you!

Gemma- Get up and foul that bitch back!!

Rachel- As long as she is afraid, she isn't going to win. And there is so much time left in this round.

Victoria hurts Porsche with a shot right above her navel and Victoria hears the biracial girl exhale and go soft.

(Rumor- Porsche Green Perfect Ten... she's fucking horrible. She gets controlled on the ground and Victoria is barely on her.)

Victoria looks to mount Porsche, but the redhead slips under Vic's left arm and ends up behind her, then wraps her legs around Victoria's waist, but the raven haired girl turns and pushes Porsche back. Porsche quickly scrambles to her feet, but is clearly hurt.

Gemma- Shit! Almost had her!

Nikky- I know. She's got the talent to win it.

Porsche is eying the smiling Victoria, who moves in with her arms low. Porsche snaps a front kick into Vic's stomach and with an "ULLLFFF!!!" Victoria doubles over and Porsche's eyes get wide. Porsche runs and clotheslines the black haired woman and Victoria's head bangs the floor hard. Porsche jumps and does and flipping leg drop right across Victoria's throat.

Gemma- Yes!!!

Victoria rolls onto her stomach and as Porsche gets to her knees, Victoria throws her knuckles into Porsche's crotch. Porsche gets to her feet and staggers back, favoring her privates. Her back is against the cage right where, Gemma, Rachel, and Nikky are.

Nikky- All she's doing is fouling you. That's all she's doing because she knows she can't beat you.

Rachel- If you do not start fighting back, she will try to rape you.

Victoria moves in on Porsche and the redhead lands a left hook, right cross, grabs Victoria and knees her in the stomach, then pushes her back and circles, smiling.

(Rachel- Green does have a background in martial arts, though professional wrestling is what she is known for. In combat situations against dangerous opponents, you have to go with your instincts.)

(Samantha- Seeing Porsche sticking and moving, and using the flashy wrestling moves... it kinda reminded me of... me.)

Victoria takes a three punch combo, then a five punch combo and two kicks to the ribs, misses on the kick to the crotch, takes a shot to stomach and buckles, then gets floored with a dropkick.

(Lucy- One thing I noticed... nobody on Team Samantha was cheering for Victoria. I guess it's unanimous... she's a bitch.)

Gemma- Step up the pressure, Porsche and you can finish her in the first round!!

Victoria gets to her feet before Porsche can move in, but Porsche kicks Victoria just above her pubic mound and the tall black haired girl doubles over with a loud "AAAUUUGGGHHH!!!! FUUUUCK!!!" Porsche exhales, measures her, but changes her mind. She moves behind Victoria, wraps her legs around the black haired girl's waist and puts Victoria in standing full nelson body scissors combo. Porsche's legs are killing Vic's ribs and Victoria waves for the referee to stop the fight. As soon as Vic is out of Porsche's hold, she knees the redhead in the crotch and takes her down, but security floods the ring and separates them.

Ref- The winner by first round submission... "Perfect 10" Porsche Green.

Porsche- I can't believe I won. She had me early on; it was hard to adjust to that style.

Gemma- What style? That bitch didn't have a style; she was fucking cheating!

Victoria exit's the ring and looks at Samantha.

Samantha- Don't look at me. I'm not in it.

Siena- That was an interesting fight. You know what? I think we may as well have two tonight, in honor of Samantha's birthday and all. So teams, you've got a half an hour to get Lucky Star and Baby Liz ready because they're up next.

Samantha- What? Where's Liz?

Liz is shown sleeping on the bleachers with an empty flask and her hand down her pants.

(Samantha- This bitch looks like Shannon Doherty, and she acts like Shannon Doherty. She pisses me the fuck off, but I will not give up on her.)

Gemma- Where's Lucky?

Lucky- I'm right here, Gemma. Are you going to be in my corner? I'm kinda worried.

Gemma- Yes I am.

Lucky- The girl's tough. She may be the one to take me down.

Rachel is shown looking at Lucky and she doesn't look happy.

Rachel- You've been slacking off in training and underperforming. Now, you get the opportunity to prove your promoter friend and everyone else that you were actually buried. Because so far, all you've shown is that you are lazy and a prima dona.

Lucky- Well, I've been told I look like a young Madonna. That's where I get my name from, you know.

Rachel- Go to the locker room and put on your gear. We will warm you up.

Lucky- Are the lights going to be on? Because I sweat a lot better in the dark.

Rachel-...

Lucky- Gemma, are the lights going to be on, because--

Gemma- Lucky, just go to the locker room. (to Rachel) We've got our work cut out for us.

Rachel- That girl annoys me.

NEXT- Baby Liz Taylor-Lakota vs. Lucky Star!

YES!!!! Fuck you Vic! :D

Another win for Team Rachel! guess you can suck it Sam ;)

Awesoem story and interview as always honey! I adore your interviews! I always get a chuckle out of your verbal blasts at me! haha! Only trouble is you set the bar so fucking high I can't think of a good enough response :p

And Laurie, you've had a proper welcome to the OPW universe now :P you know you've made it when everyone starts insulting you! HAHAHA! Looks liek you'll have a nemisis in the form of Rumour... then again, it seems she hates everyone! Except Kayla... that kinda proves how dumb she is though ;D

MORE!!!! MORE!!!!

x G x

Thanks Gemma ... now I gotta back it all up in the cage. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I still need your help. Can we do some more extra training, if you 'n Rachel are ok with it?  :) 8)

~L~

Lucky Star is 5'5" 135 lbs with long curly brown hair with light brown highlights and blue eyes. She comes out in white wedding lingerie and black boots and is smiling on her way to the cage. As soon as she gets there though, her demeanor changes.

(Lucky- I've been slacking off in training and I've been flirting and playing mind games with the other fighters. I've been doing all of it on purpose because I want to appear as weak as possible. True enough, I am a sexually dominant and aggressive woman and I am damn proud of it. I don't give a fuck what anyone thinks of me, but I'll pretend to.)

(Justice- I've heard of Lucky and seen some of her matches. Everything about Lucky Star drips "seductress." The way she talks with that low voice like Madonna's, the way she tries to act all innocent, but stares at you like she wants to hump you... I don't like women like that, but Lucky Star has more going on with her than she would like people to know. Look at her eyes. She's got those dreamy eyes and that can fool you.)

Lucky- Gemma, I'm worried. What if she beats me? I don't want to be beaten, Gemma.

Gemma- Just get in there and listen to us. You'll do fine.

Lucky- Are you going to hit me, Gemma?

Gemma- Why would I hit you?

Lucky- It's okay, Gemma. I've been hit before. I just don't wanna get hurt, you know. I don't know... you just look like you can't decide whether you want to hit me or kiss me. Thanks for warming me up.

Gemma- What? Hey... I--

Lucky enters the cage and moves around a bit.

Rachel- What was that all about?

Gemma- I have no idea.

Elizabeth "Baby Liz" Taylor-Lakota is 5'9" 140 lbs, with long black hair and hazel eyes and she is dressed in a black tank top, black shorts and black grappling gloves with bare feet and black toenail polish and she looks aloof and indifferent.

(Liz- Whatever. Everybody doubts me and everybody wants to see me fail. Laurie Breeze was sitting her worthless ass right there booing me, so I flipped her the bird. Whatever. I'm the one who fought hard; I'm the one who had to put up with those old assholes on the reservation. Fuck them.)

Liz and Lucky come together for instructions. Lucky looks at the referee.

Lucky- Are you going to frisk me?

Ref- Usually, we tend not to.

Lucky- Too bad, I always do better when I'm frisked. Hello, Liz.

Liz- What do you want?

Lucky- Are you going to hurt me?

Liz- Ummm yes.

Lucky- Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry?

Katora- What's with all the talking, Ref? Get them back in their corners and start the match.

Ref- Hey, cool it!

Katora- You cool it!

(Katora- I know Lucky Star likes to use mind games and I wasn't happy with the ref, letting them talk like that. Liz is already messed up. It's stupid, you know?)

Lucky and Liz back up to their corners of the cage.

Samantha- Liz, she's awkward and unpredictable, so establish your jab and control the center of the ring. Watch her takedowns and if she taunts you, hit her.

Liz- Whatever.

Gemma- Okay Lucky, she's drunk but she's dangerous. Take it to her and watch those strikes. Get her down and she'll probably quit because she's a quitter.

Laurie- Lucky, Liz is definitely a quitter and she's just a bully with no pride. She's a joke.

Lucky- Yeah, but she might get me. I don't know if I can take her... she may take me.

The bell rings and Lucky and Liz meet at center cage, Lucky has her hand extended to touch gloves with Liz as a sign of good sportsmanship. Liz chooses to touch with Lucky, but Lucky grabs Liz's wrist and throws a roundhouse kick that slams into the right side of Liz's head, staggering her.

Samantha- Shit!!

Liz raises her arms and Lucky rushes in, ducking low and easily lifting Liz up, then spinning and slamming Liz down in a spine buster.

Gemma- Shit, Lucky is stronger than we thought.

Samantha- Get out of the mount, Liz. You're not in trouble.

Liz- Ahhhh OOH!!! Ahhhh... OOH!!! Ahhh... UNNHH!!!

Lucky is sticking her fingers into Liz's shorts and tickling Liz's "lips" and punching her in the face and stomach.

Lucky- Are you enjoying yourself, Baby Liz? Are you enjoying me?

Liz- Stop, bitch! Ahhhhh... OOOH!!

Lucky- If you want to cum, Liz, don't resist it. If you're going to lose to me, you may as well cum hard.

Samantha- Liz, you need to fucking throw some punches and get that bitch off of you!! What are you doing?

Dynamite- Looks to me like she's getting fooked.

Liz gets her bare feet on Lucky's stomach and kicks her back. Lucky swallows and lands in a seated position, touching her stomach and looking sadly at Liz as the taller girl gets to her feet.

Lucky- I guess you don't appreciate me.

Liz kicks Lucky in the face and Lucky's eyes roll back and she goes flat on her back. Liz takes her bare foot and puts it on Lucky's face, using her toes to try and pry open the Madonna look a like's mouth... Liz's notices Lucky is smiling.

Liz- What the fuck? Ahhh!!!

Lucky sweeps Liz's legs out from under her and is quick to jump, slamming her stomach across Liz's head. Lucky seems to be rubbing her stomach on Liz's head.

Lucky- Oooooooh Baby Liz... your nose in on my bellybutton... ohhhh Baby Liz... I have the most perfect bellybutton. There's a nerve behind it and when that nerve is touched, I feel an electric shock go through my body and up my spine.

(Nikky- Lucky Star took a kick to the face and shook it off. I was impressed.)

(Joanne- So, I'm thinking... Lucky Star is a total freak!! She was totally sex-fighting Liz... I wish it was a three way; I wanted some of that action)

Samantha- Liz, get that bitch off!!!

Rumor- Looks like that's what she's doing.

Lucky lays her back on Liz's stomach and the shorter girl rubs her butt into Liz's crotch while locking her legs with Liz's, then reaching up and grabbing Liz by the back of her head and pulling it down in a modified can opener.

Dynamite- She's giving up her fooking back, slap on a choke, you dumb fooking cxnt!

(Rumor- So, all Liz has to do is put her arms around Lucky's throat, and she'd have her in a choke, but Liz is too cxnt-struck to do it.)

Liz starts throwing punches around, trying to hit Lucky's stomach, but she's hitting Lucky's breasts instead.

Lucky- Uhhh... my nipples are sensitive, Baby Liz. So, tell me something... why do they call you Baby Liz? You want to get me somewhere... here... (Lucky takes Liz's right hand and puts it on her crotch and starts grinding her) Oohhhhh Baby Liz...

Rachel- Absolutely disgraceful.

Shawna- Squeeze her pussy, Liz!!! Squeeze it!!!

Brit- Do something, Liz!!

Dynamite- What the fook were you doing in your match with Laurie Breeze?

Brit- I'm not fighting, Quinn.

Dynamite- Yeah, and when the fook were you?

(Samantha- I wasn't going to tell Liz to do something dirty... but I was hoping she would. She was getting completely outworked.)

Liz brings her right arm up and brings her fist down on the pit of Lucky's stomach.

Lucky- ough...

Liz feels Lucky's body shake and hears the brunette swallow. Liz quickly wraps her arms around Lucky's throat, but Lucky scrambles to her feet before Liz can get a body scissors on. Then Lucky drops to a seated position and Liz's chin and mouth are smashed into the back of Lucky's head. Liz is stunned and backs up as Lucky turns around and now that both women are back on their feet, Lucky extends her hand to Liz again.

Samantha- Don't touch gloves with her!!

Liz sticks her hand out and Lucky nails her with a right cross, ducks low, picks Liz up, runs and slams her on her back.

Samantha- I told you not to fucking touch gloves with her!!! Liz, get up!!!

Lucky sits on Liz's stomach, folds her arms behind her head and does a wiggle, then she starts punching Liz in the face with a vicious ground and pound. Liz is trying to buck the smaller girl off of her, but Lucky is staying on, however, she allows Liz to roll onto her stomach and looks to put on a choke. Lucky gets the choke on and Liz's hair is also tangled in Lucky's choke.

Samantha- There are only thirty seconds left in the round, hold on!!!

Lucky is humping Liz and smiling broadly as she's got the taller girl. Liz finally taps the mat and Lucky releases the hold.

Samantha- Fuck, fuck, fuckity fuck!!!!!

(Samantha- Three matches so far... three losses for me so far.)

(Rumor- Baby Liz is an idiot. She didn't fight well; she didn't train well; she didn't do anything right and she had plenty of opportunities. She got beat by a used vagina.)

Ref- The winner... Lucky Star.

Liz takes her gloves off and throws them down. Samantha tries to talk to Liz, but Liz says "whatever" and makes her way out of the ring. But Samantha notices white powder residue on the gloves and on Liz's wrists.

Samantha- Fucking bitch...

Meanwhile... Lucky is celebrating her victory...

Lucky- Looks like I won.

Rachel- Your performance was disgraceful and wasteful.

Lucky- I didn't know you were a poet, Master Apache. Would you like me to be your slave?

Rachel- I would like you to put for a better effort in training and in competition.

Lucky- I won.

Rachel- ... You didn't win the way you should have.

Lucky- But I won.

Gemma- If I could just cut in here, something's going on over there with Samantha and Siena.

Lucky- Oh, Rachel and Gemma... this is for you. I guess I got lucky again. I won by a hair... or more.

Lucky pulls back on her lingerie to reveal her unshaved bush. Rachel's eyes widen and Gemma turns and covers her mouth from laughing. Gemma even starts coughing to prevent herself from laughing. Once Lucky walks off smiling, Gemma shakes her head from side to side, disapprovingly. Rachel stares at Lucky with a definite angry expression as the brunette backs up and makes her way back to the dressing room.

Lucky- You know we're gonna be friends, Rachel. You've got so much hair on your head; I wonder if the Rapunzel trait runs down below.

(Rachel- I have no comment on my exchange with Lucky Star. Okay fine... I wanted to give her a spiked piledriver for disrespecting me.)

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.naughty.com%2Fnews%2FMadonna%2FYoung_and_Naked_Photos%2Fimages%2FMadonna_Big_Hairy_Bush_photo.jpg&hash=a7dac07e69e8c3b2f4f994268d50e3b06ce8a886)

(Siena- I happened to see Lucky Star's bush and knowing Madonna's anatomy pretty well... let's say that Lucky and Madonna have a lot in common with the appearance and the attitude.)

Samantha- Siena, we need to have a meeting in the office with Liz.

Christina- What's going on?

Samantha- That bitch was on something.

(Gemma- I don't know what happens, but Rachel, Sam, Siena and Christina go into an office with Baby Liz.)

In the office...

Liz- Whatever, man.

Samantha- What do you mean "whatever?" What is that powder?

Siena touches some of the powder on one of the gloves and tastes it.

Siena- It's cocaine. The cheap kind.

Samantha- So, you got in the cage on that shit, and loaded your gloves with it, so you could snort it during the fight and get a rush? You want to be so high that you end up killing your opponent or killing yourself? No fucking respect for this fucking sport? Is that what you did, Liz? Look at me. Is that what you did because it didn't help you... you still fucking lost.

Liz- Fuck you. You don't give a shit about me, none of you do.

Samantha- Fuck me? That's all you've been doing, you stupid bitch. Fuck me? No bitch, fuck you!!!

Samantha starts raining punches down on Liz's head and all hell breaks loose as Liz grabs Samantha, but the punches are coming way too fast. Rachel looks on with her arms folded as Siena takes a right cross to her lip as she gets between the two women and Christina grabs Samantha and pins her to the wall.

Samantha- You fucking bitch!!! You fucking cheater!!! You better be lucky they're holding me back.

Liz- Come on, bitch. You don't care about me (crying) no fucking body does!

Samantha- Let me go, I'm cool.

Christina lets Sam go, but Samantha slaps Liz right in the mouth and Christina grabs Sam again.

Samantha- Look Siena, I don't think it's fair that I had both Liz and Victoria on my team. Neither one of them was even there when we picked teams. But you stuck me with both of them and they both were almost un-coachable. I think we should do some sort of trade or something. Send one of them to Rachel's team for a fighter of my choosing.

Rachel- If I would even be open to such a thing, it would be a fighter of MY choosing who left MY team.

Siena- If you had a problem with it Sam, why the fuck did you wait until now to say something? Seems like if Victoria and Liz had won, you wouldn't be whining about this.

Samantha- You know what? You give Rachel anything she wants. This bitch pisses all over you in every interview, hating on you since she was 11, and you give her whatever the fuck she wants.

Rachel- Watch what you call me, woman. I'm not as easy as your drug addict pupil... or you.

Samantha- Oh really? Then where the fuck is my title shot? If I'm so easy, why the fuck are you avoiding another fight with me? Maybe you should be asking your drug addict pupil Gemma Rox why she got her ass handed to her by despicable me.

Rachel- Both your fighters lost tonight. Happy Birthday.

Samantha faces Rachel and Siena steps between the two of them.

Rachel- Do not touch me, Siena.

Siena- Look, it's been a long fucking day. Can we just work something out?

A few minutes later, Samantha comes out and Gemma Rox immediately meets her.

Gemma- I heard the commotion. What the fuck is your problem, huh? You're in there picking a fight with Rachel?

Samantha- Bitch, get the fuck away from me.

Rachel follows and Gemma notices that Rachel doesn't look like she's been in any sort of fight. But Gemma sees Baby Liz, looking worse than she did during the match with Lucky Star. Gemma looks back at Samantha.

Samantha- Don't say a fucking word to me.

Gemma approaches Rachel.

Gemma- What happened?

Rachel- Several things. The fighter known as Baby Liz was using cocaine during her fight. Her coach was not happy and attacked her. Then, we made a trade.

Gemma- A trade?

Rachel- We are inheriting a headache from the other team.

Gemma- Rachel...

Rachel- We will talk about this later.

Siena- Okay, there's been a trade. I realize that it wasn't fair to give Samantha both Baby Liz and Victoria when both of them didn't even bother to show up for the draft because one was in police lockup and the other one was high. So, to make things a bit more fair, Victoria has been traded to Team Rachel and Praggy is now a member of Team Samantha.

Gemma- Rachel, how could you put Victoria on our team? You know I hate Jessika and her--

Rachel- I know what I am doing and Samantha chose Victoria. I wanted to send Ms. Lucky Star to the other team, but we settled on Praggy. We are the ones in control, do you understand me? There is no one who we cannot handle.

Gemma- I don't like this one bit.

Rachel- Neither do I. But we will deal with it as always.

(Joanne- This totally sucks!! Now, Praggy, Katrina, and Shawna are all on my team! I hate all three of those bitches! And I'm fighting next!)

NEXT: How will Victoria and Praggy fit in on their new teams after the trade? What will be the fallout of Baby Liz's drug use or will there be any fallout at all? And then in the final preliminary fight, Team Rachel's kickboxing sensation Kathy Oasis takes on the ever popular Team Samantha member, Girl Wrestler Joanne!

(giving Baby Liz an extra special one-fingered wave as she leaves)

Nah Nah Nah Nah.....

Nah Nah Nah Nah.....

Hey Hey Hey.....

Goodbye!

(Another AWESOME chapter, Howard!!!)

~Laurie~

Thank you so much, Laurie! I had a lot of fun! :) :-*

What a fun read to follow!  ;D Yes, it's interesting to see a feud brewing between Rumour & Laurie ... just love the dirt banter & trash talking being flung around ... nice writing everyone!  ;D :D ;)

Hugs
Kayla
P.S. It's a bust time of the year and can only come round here once in a while, but nice to read entertaining stuff like this ...

Howard makes it so easy to contribute...Everything is so real, so detailed, all the people in the story are unique with their own personalties. The way he manages to keep all the different plots 'n stories going, yeesh, I'd need a scorecard to be able to do that! I am totally in awe of Howard 'n Ms Jenn Peccavi in her stories for being able to juggle so many characters 'n plots at the same time.

Gemma is awesome 'n fun to work with too. I had a blast collaborating with her on our stuff. I'm just happy to be able to contribute in a lil way in this amazing series!

~L~

I appreciate that greatly, Laurie! Coming from you, it really means a lot. Just keep your guard up, protect that tummy, and take a good look at the girls on the other team, because one of them is going to be fighting you.  8)

Team Rachel's training day...

It's 6am and I'm walking into the gym... for the last 4 hours I've been awake dreading this. My head is all out of shape right now. I just can't get it screwed on right... I'm throwing myself into this training gig I've been given by Rachel but it's just not enough for me... Since Sam took me out of action I've been itching to get back into a fight and last night? I fell into bad habits...

5 hours earlier...

"UUGGHHH!!... OOMMPPHHH!!!... OUULLLFFF!!!"
This big fat bitch is driving knee after knee into my abs. each one is lifting me clean off the ground. She's got me in a Thai clinch that I could easily get out of but I don't want to... there's a sickness in me you see.

A need.

An addiction.


"AAAGGGHHHH!!! FUCK!"

The bitch just knee'd me in the face. My nose is bleeding bad... SHIT!

"HEY!!! I warned you! Not the face I said! Uuuuuugghhhhh...."

She answers my angry mandate with defiant left hook. That fat, greasy, ham sized fist smashes hard into my right eye socket and I stagger back to the roar of the crowd...

"oh no.... no you fucking didn't......" I growl low, my face turning into a vicious snarl

"Bitch! I'ma do whateva the fuck I wanna do to you!" she laughs back, the motion causes the pale folds of fat on her face to wobble repulsively. She's got to be at least a foot taller than me at 6'3" and if I had to guess I'd say she's pushing 280lbs. At the start of the fight she was a nervous wreck, I mean... I'm quite well known in the fighting world after all and she's an overweight tramp who's looking to score some extra money in an underground fightclub... but I let her just wail on me for the last 10 minutes as the bloodthirsty crowd bayed and gambled away. All I told her was not the face... guess the beat down I let her put on me has built up her confidence. More fool her...

I circle her, light on my feet and she looks quiet stunned. After all, she's sweating profusely from the heavy shots she's been dishing out and now I'm bouncing like I'm fresh off the bench... she comes at me

"Aaaaaagghhhh!!! Fuck!! My... my nose! She broke my noUUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!"

She runs straight into a left jab and as she clutched her broken, pouring nose my heavy right hand levelled the fat bitch! I should point out that since that fight with Sam I had to have some major hand surgery I now have a heavy duty metal plating over my bones that helped to re-align them and as a nice little fringe benefit I've got a lethal right hand now.

"Dumb cxnt! I SAID NOT THE FACE!!!" I roar, my heart pounding in my chest as I feel my eye swell up... this is gonna be a bitch to talk off....

I leap on her back and come crashing down knees first into her kidneys

"AAAAAGGGKKKKKK!!!!" she splutters. Quickly I wrap my left arm around her throat and pull back in a camel clutch choke hold...

"I was gonna let you have the win tonight but now? Now you're getting knocked the fuck out!" I hiss as I pull back tighter... A fitter girl would have lasted a lot longer, maybe even a minute or two but a slob like this? She was unconscious in seconds... I drop her prone body and kick her hard in the ribs before storming off to grab my money and get the fuck out of there.

back to the present...

I open the gym door and Rachel see's me... her eyes flash up straight away. She of course spots my huge black eye in an instant. I could have walked in with a tiny scratch and she'd still notice. Rachel Apache never misses a damn thing...

Rachel - Hello Gemma, You'll be pleased to know we have a little help from now on

I was a little surprised... I was expecting a full interrogation and a humiliating dressing down on how a Team Rachel trainer should represent a professional appearance at all times but she seems to be ignoring it...

Love - Hey there stranger

Oh shit...

Love - long time no se... WOAH! Nice shiner you got there slugger! Don't tell me... you walked into a door? Or are you going to shock us with the truth for once?

Sage - Hey now Love... go easy on her! That's no way to... wow.... That's a big one! What hit you? A truck?

Gemma - Sage. Good to see you again

Love - Why Gemma... I'm hurt! You imply it's NOT good to see me again?

Gemma - It's always good seeing you Love! You know that. It's just not that good hearing you...

Love - Well nobody likes hearing the truth... I guess that's why you never tell it

Gemma - really? You're here for 5 seconds and you're on my back? FINE! I got into a fight last night, you happy now?

Love - Pfft... fight. Yeah right... a half truth isn't really a truth at all, you know that.

Sage - Now now girls... play nice

Sage steps in and gives me a hug... I'm a little taken aback by that to be honest. I didn't know we were on hugging terms... for those who don't know Sage is Rachel's younger sister. As smart as she is beautiful, she has something of a Jessica Alba look to her. You'd be hard pressed not to like the woman but then again... the last time we properly met we were in a match together and I made her tap out in a particularly vicious Boston Crab...

Love - I always play nice Sage. It's Gemma here who likes the rough stuff

And this is Love... Possibly the best fighter to never step in the ring. Rachel tells me just how good she is but truth is? I have no idea. She doesn't do anything but talk. We've had our differences in the past. She's taken to becoming Sage's personal angel since Sage turned pro and when I beat Sage? Well... that didn't sit to well with Love, I don't mind telling you. Truth is I could just eat up that woman! She's tall, has the perfect hourglass figure, blonde and smart with a wit that's so sharp it can cut glass but for some reason... she makes me feel uneasy

As if on queue she steps in and whispers into my ear...

Love - I know you're fighting on the underground scene again... we need to talk about that

Yup. That's why she makes me uneasy... she see's the darkness in me. And I hate her for that. Whenever she's around it reminds me of my own failings.

Rachel - come on now, we need to get this session underway

I take Rachel's queue and round up the girls. To be honest I'm happy to do so... I knew Sage and Love were going to join us on the coaching staff eventually and my heart drops a little now they have... you see... I never really got the chance to get to know Rachel. It's not as easy as it sounds. We've had lots of time together talking about the fighters, the strategies, the methods... but whenever I try to get to know the real Rachel she's always back to business. And now? With her little sister and her protégé here I'm just going to fade into the background. I'll never be a part of that clique... Maybe it's me. Maybe I'm just too standoffish to be 'friend' material...

Despite my misgivings The training session goes quite smoothly, each of us falling into the roles Rachel assigned us to perfection.

Love, with her harsh tongue and searing wit is the hate figure... she'll walk though and balk at one of the girls, laughing at their flawed technique or openly dismissing their biggest strengths in an effort to get under their skins... already she's taken the wind out of the old veteran Wildcat's sails, dismissing her stand up game with a sarcastic remark

Love - Is that how they fought in the 80's? wow... and people paid to watch you? Here, let me show you how to take someone down

The words almost purr from the sultry blonde and Wildcat of course took offence to them but 5 seconds later? She's on her arse in pain. I couldn't believe it! Wildcat gripped Love in a bear hug from behind and I swear to god I was sure Love was about to get snapped in half! Then Love just shrugs Wildcat off, reaches down between her legs and yanks the old veteran's ankles from under her! In a heartbeat Love had Wildcat tapping in an ankle lock I've never even seen before...

At that moment? I began to realise why Rachel talks so highly of her. The woman just radiates skill and ability. Now I know that the silky smooth voice and the calm cheeky smile she wears... it isn't born of arrogance... well... not entirely... it's more earned through confidence. That unwavering assurance that you can't fail. And to top it all off she did all that in street cloths no less! You see the thing with love? She's walking around in tight blue jeans and a jacket... you know why? Because she's that fucking good she doesn't need to dress for this. She put down the biggest fighter in this tournament on a whim!

Then in comes me. After getting openly diss'd by Love they're suddenly far more eager for a sympathetic ear and a caring coach. Where as in the previous weeks the fighters would shrug and do what I ask reluctantly, now they see me as being on their side, eager for me to help them over the harsher Love. I must admit... on a personal level? It's nice not being the figure of hate for once.

And after me there's Sage. She's the confidence booster, the polisher of the rough stone. She's doing wonders with Laurie, Lucky and Kathy but personally... I have my doubts about how confident Lucky really is. Sure she plays the lost little lamb, but then she steps in the cage and pounds the shit out of you.

As I walk past I overhear Sage talking to Laurie...

Laurie - again? I'm sick of grappling! I wanna hit something!

Sage - Here's the thing Laurie. You've got this amazing spirit to you! It's really quite staggering how determined you are! When you couple that with your striking, you've got a neat little package... but... then your wrestling skills, although a lot better that before, still need a whole lot of work... but we can do it! I know we can. You stick to what we say you'll be a force of nature out there! So let's hit that grapple dummy one more time, ok?

Laurie - ok, you're right. Thanks Sage

I chuckle to myself... the shit sandwich... the perfect way of criticising someone and have them not even realise it!

You've got great heart! - the Bread
Your ground game sucks arse! - The Shit
Listen to me? I'll make you a star! - The Bread

You put it all together and you can tell a girl to her face she sucks balls and she'll love you for it. Sage is a pro! She can criticise you and make you feel like a champion all in the same sentence

And finally? We have Rachel. She's the glue really. She watches, she studies, she occasionally gets involved when I try and kill one of the girls... but mostly? She's the authority. We've got a lot of fuck ups on our team but somehow? Rachel's managed to control them. Most of the time...

The day goes by pretty fast and before I know it the girls are jogging back to the house and it's just us trainers left tidying up. I'm packing up all the towels when Rachel, Sage and Love all get together and start gossiping. I knew it... this is the moment I've been dreading. It's like I'm back in fucking school! All the girls gossiping while I'm left out on the cold... ought.... I tell myself to get over it, I always knew I'd be the outsider...

Sage - Oh! We should go and meet Brandy for some dinner! There's a new place that just opened on the coast, I've heard it's pretty good

Love - the Chinese? I've had better...

Sage - there you go again...

Love? What? I'm just saying... you want good Chinese food then go to China...

Sage - I'm not saying they do the best Chinese food in the world, I'm just saying it'll be nice to have something different!

Rachel - Is that the restaurant with the olive trees outside?

Love - no, that's the new Italian

Sage - Mmmmm..... I could really go for a Pasta Al Forno right now...

Rachel - that does sound good...

Love - If you want good Italian food then you really should...

Sage - OH MY GOD! If you say go to Italy I'm gonna put you on your ass!

Love - fine... I won't say it!.......... You know I'm right though

Rachel - I'll call Brandy, let's take my car, I'm not don't want to drink

My heart sinks as I hear them all make plans so pally pally... everything I'm not... Then love turns around

Love - you coming?

I just stand there... the words registering but not really making any sense to me

Gemma - I.... uh..... Wh... what?

Love - Are you coming?

I couldn't believe it. I could cry right now!

Gemma - I..... I'm invited?

Love and Sage look at me for a second before turning to each other and laughing out loud

Sage - Hahahahaha! OF COURSE you're invited! What do you think we've been talking about the last 5 minutes!

Gemma - sorry... I uh... I just figured you were talking amongst yourselves...

Love - so what, you to good to eat with us?

Gemma - NO!!! I... I mean of course not, I... I'd love to come, thank you

I'm blushing bright red now, I can't believe what's happening... am I being accepted? Love turns to Sage and asks her to meet us outside then as Sage and Rachel leave she turns back to me

Love - look Rox, you're part of the family now, you hear me? All this lone warrior stuff? It doesn't have to be like that. You've got friends you know, you just need to open your eyes and see them.

Gemma - I.... it's just that... I never really knew if Rachel saw me as a friend or as a tool she's using to make her fighters better

Love - you are a tool...

Gemma - we already made that joke a few chapters back... But what I mean is she just seems so formal and...

Love - Robotic?

Gemma - yeah... and well you and Sage? Since that fight we've not exactly been pen pals.

Love - look... what happened in the past is in the past. For my part I'm sorry. I lost my temper on you, but I need you to be sorry too

Gemma - Sorry for what?

Love - look in the mirror dumb ass. Look at that fucking black eye you're sporting. You think that's healthy? You're recovering from a fractured spine, a fractured skull and a broken hand and you go out to underground fight clubs? You're sick Gemma... and as long as you stay sick you're going to end up hurting someone

All the while she confronts me she does so with that same silky smooth voice... her calmness and sultry manner for some reason works me up all the more...

Gemma - I know!!! Ok? YOU HAPPY?!?!?! I... I fucking know... I just...

Love - look. Rachel tells me you've been signed off to fight again and you're going to do a tour down south with OPW the next few weeks to get back to match fitness... I got a place in New Orleans

Gemma - It's ok, I'm crashing at Jonica's

Love - I wasn't offering you my crib dumbass. I'm kind, not stupid... I just meant I'll come visit you, we can shoot the shit. Give you a little down time in-between fights on the tour. I've been with Sage on some of those tours... they're pretty extreme you know. A different city every night, travel, fight, travel fight... and on top of that you're flying out here 2-3 times a week to train Rachel's fighters? That's a pretty crazy schedule

Gemma - you... you'd fly out to see me?

Love - haven't you listened to a word I said? You're part of the family now, of course I would.

She finishes with a warm smile as her right hand rises to brush some hair out of my eyes... then the tone changes suddenly...

Love - but one thing you need to know... don't betray us Gemma. don't ever betray us. You need to fix yourself and I'll help you if you want it... but this running around getting your ass kicked in fight clubs? That ends now...

With that she turns and walks out

Love - See you at the car slugger

I lower my head a little, my hand coming up to gently rub my bruised right eye... I know I need to fix myself but it's not as easy as it sounds....

x G x

A 'shit sandwich'? I'm glad I wasn't drinking when I read that or I'd have Carnation's Breakfast drink all over my laptop right now!

Another awesome chapter, Gemma!!!

I've seen your *dark side* up close 'n personal, it's not very nice. I'm glad you got the chance to work out your demons on someone else this time. ;)

xoxo

Wonderfully done, as always, Gems.

Slutty......yet effective. ;)

Wow, ummmm Laurie i heard you,what you said, you're gonna scout me too huh?, well ummmm, well, we may be besties  Laurie, but if we get in that cage together, don't expect any mercy from me!   *just sayin*    
I do LoVe you and all....but this is aside of things between us, hope you understand........
BTW.....what's the smell around here?, is Shawna near by? **giggles**  
And i'm sooooo scared about this 'Kathy Oasis'   Ooooooo   ::)............

I understand, Jo....I'm not blonde, sweetie.  ;) :D   Even tho we're on different teams, you know I've got your back when we're in the house .... But in the cage it's every cat for herself, there's way too much at stake. I don't expect any mercy from ya, don't expect any from me either!

~L~

Gemma did an outstanding job with this as always. And thank you Laurie and Joanne, as well as the people nice enough to reply to this story. I've been recovering from another bout of illness and checking papers, but Kathy vs Joanne is coming right on up. Will Joanne totally end her losing streak, or will Kathy bounce back from her horrible knockout loss at the hands of the woman who obliterated an already obliterated Gemma Rox... Tyler.

We shall see...

Glad you're feeling better, Howard!  huggggzzzzz   :-* :-*

(I'm rooting for Joanne to win this one but I'm being really really quiet about it since Tyler is on my team ;)  )

haha! Kathy is on your team silly!  :D Tyler isn't in this competition... but I'll be loking for that bitch soon.... (read 'the search for Gemma Rox' by howard and you'll learn more about that character... she's evil!)

oops....my bad....that's the price I pay for reading fast 'n then posting. I mixed up the names. I've been known to be ditzy at times, Joanne can vouch for that!

Howard does such an amazing job with all these characters, I am totally in awe of the world he's created, I'm learning so much just by reading his stories!  ;)

( I'm rooting for Joanne to win this one but I'm being really really quiet about it since Kathy is on my team  ;) )

Happy now, G?

~L~

I need a scorecard too. please post one

well, I'll say this. If I ever decide to do something like this again, I hope somebody slaps the hell out of me, if I do not slap myself first. Peace.

Girl Wrestler Joanne vs. Kathy Oasis

The fighters for both teams are gathered in the gym for the fight.

Kathy Oasis is 5'10" 140 lbs with long wavy auburn hair and aqua blue eyes and looks just like Kathy Ireland. She comes out dressed in an aqua blue sports bra, showing the slight definition in her stomach and her small odd-looking outie navel, and matching shorts with her feet and ankles taped. Kathy looks very focused and determined, but every once in a while, there's a bit of a nervous curiosity about her. Kathy is known for her super-friendly, too nice to be taken seriously personality, but Kathy is a very good kickboxing and muay thai fighter who is coming off of a brutal knock out loss to Tyler The Silver Fox.

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.cdn.turner.com%2Fsi%2Fmultimedia%2Fphoto_gallery%2F1002%2Fkathy.ireland.photos%2Fimages%2Fkathy-ireland.001096035.jpg&hash=40e1c3c45db7784ee506fbc6d6614a8851a0f063)

(Kathy- I just say a prayer as I'm walking to the cage. I trust my trainers and I trust Joanne enough to hope that she's going to fight fair. I don't know; I don't want to hurt her, but this is what we do. It's an odd feeling after my last fight when I got knocked out. I hope it goes well for me.)

Gemma- Focus, Kathy. You're gonna have to establish yourself in there and apply the pressure. You are taller and stronger than she is and you can beat the shit out of her from outside.

Kathy- Yes, ma'am.

(Kathy- Gemma curses a lot and I don't like cursing. But I listen to her because she knows what she's talking about. I just hope I can execute their strategy.)

Girl Wrestler Joanne is out next. Joanne is 5'6" with shoulder length blonde hair and hazel eyes and she's dressed in a black bikini with black thigh high boots, showing off her smooth stomach and oval shaped innie navel. Joanne looks pissed off and Samantha is walking with her, talking to her all the way to the cage. Joanne is known as a trash talker and has a huge cult following, but she's coming off of a series of losses and has followed a pattern of talking trash, getting beaten and humiliated, admitting defeat in a very humble and docile manner, only to talk trash and demand a rematch of the same person who beat her... only to be beaten again.

(Joanne- I said I'm not worrying about Kathy Oasis and I mean it. Kathy cooks for us and she's a good person, but I am totally gonna kick her nicey nice ass back to California. I can admit that my head hasn't been where it should be, but seeing my bestie Laurie Breeze, who I brought into this business, ignoring me at the house and embracing Gemma Rox, not talking to me because she's tired from training and even saying that she's scouting me... that's pissed me off! Laurie has turned selfish and I need to be that way too if I'm going to win.)

Samantha- Look... this bitch is good, but she starts slowly. Everybody is saying that you can't beat her; everybody is saying you don't have any heart. I've been where you've been, Joanne. I know what it's like to be the pretty girl that nobody is giving a chance. I know what it's like to come into the business with a bunch of hype and then, go on a losing streak. Starting right here, right now, you take what they've said about you and you shove it up their asses. Get this bitch out of here.

The bell rings and Kathy comes out with her arms raised high and her left foot out and tapping while Joanne charges Kathy and goes for a takedown, but the taller girl dances out of the way. Jo looks at Kathy and sighs as Kathy seems to be waiting to see what Jo does next.

Gemma- Establish yourself.

Kathy sticks a jab out that catches Joanne on the forehead, then steps back. Kathy lands another jab and follows up with a hook to the jaw of Joanne and the shorter blonde backs up.

Gemma- She's confused; step it up.

Kathy moves in and lowers her arms a bit, so Jo lands a left hook of her own to Kathy's jaw and Kathy's legs buckle.

Samantha- Get her!!!

Joanne rams her shoulder into Kathy's bare stomach and the taller girl's cheeks fill with air as she stumbles back, but Kathy is able to turn Joanne, lock her fingers together behind Jo's head and drive three knees to the blonde's ribs.

Joanne- Uggghhh!!! You're totally hurting me!!!

Kathy- I'm sorry, but what am I supposed to do?

Gemma- Fuck that! Knee her again, Kathy!

Samantha- Don't wilt, Joanne! Remember what I said!!

Dana- Sweep her legs, Joanne!

Dynamite- Take that bitch down!! Grab her fookin legs and take her down!

(Shawna- Fuck Joanne. With my judo and aikido, I could've helped her prepare for Kathy, beyond Joanne's simple wrestling that I was able to easily dominate in the two fights we've had. But Joanne is worthless and writes out checks with her mouth that her ass can't cash. Kathy makes me sick too with her smiling and "How do you do?" bullshit.)

(Katrina- Uggh! Ooof! Ohhh, I'm so totally weakening! That's the sound of Joanne getting her ass kicked again. Yes, we're on the same team, but do I give a damn about that bitch? Hell, no. I kicked her ass and I'd kick it again.)

(Praggy- It feels good to be on Team Samantha and not have to put up with the bitches on Team Rachel, especially the broken lovers Laurie Breeze and Gemma Rox. I don't know how I'm going to get along with the other ladies on this team, but Shawna, Katrina, and I are united at least in our dislike of Joanne. They were silent and so was I.)

Joanne pulls her head out of the clinch and Kathy takes a breath, but Joanne strikes Kathy's solar plexus with a jab.

Kathy- Mmph!

Kathy takes a moment and exhales, giving Joanne a look of pain and sadness. Joanne senses it and lands a jab to Kathy's stomach, right above her navel, then when Kathy's eyes widen and she bends, Jo throws a kick to Kathy's ribs and Kathy backs up, holding her side.

Samantha- Get on her, Joanne! This is your chance!

Joanne moves in again, but Kathy steadies herself and lands a left hook right cross combo that almost knocks Jo down. Kathy circles and lands a hard leg kick to Joanne's right leg. Jo sees Kathy's back close to the cage wall and she charges in, wrapping her arms around Kathy's waist and stomping on the taller girl's toes with her hard black boots.

(Samantha- There were some things that we worked on with Joanne. She's primarily a wrestler, but I had Dana teaching her some other techniques. Jo likes to use her legs, so Katora had her do some kicking drills too. Just stuff so that she could give a good account of herself facing Kathy's stand up game.)

With Joanne up close, Kathy can't really throw her punches or knees because she's being smothered against the cage wall. Kathy looks around confused and doesn't seem like she knows what to do, but she hooks Jo's arms, pushes herself forward, lets the blonde go and lands a jab jab cross to Jo's face and a good digging left hook to Jo's stomach.

Jo- Ugggghhhh!!!!

Joanne doubles over and Kathy loads a cross, but Jo swings her head around while Kathy's in motion and the blonde's head slams into Kathy's stomach.

Kathy- Guuugghhh...

Kathy grabs her stomach and doubles over while Joanne grabs her own neck and backs up.

Samantha- She's hurt!! She's hurt!!! Suck it up, Joanne!!

Jo- I think I hurt my neck! My neck is really hurting bad!

Samantha- You're gonna be hurting a lot worse if you blow it! Hurting because all those bitches who put you down will have been proven right!

Joanne cracks her neck and goes at Kathy, who plants her feet and throws a left hook that Joanne ducks under while landing a hook of her own to Kathy's liver, grabbing the taller girl around her waist and taking her down.

Gemma- Aw, shit.

Joanne is able to get an easy mount and starts to punch Kathy's face over and over again. When Kathy brings her arms up, Joanne starts going after her weakened stomach. Joanne is able to pry Kathy's arms apart and starts to position her legs for the face sitter, Joanne's signature move, but Kathy comes alive and starts struggling like crazy to prevent the move from being used. Once Jo sees that she can't get Kathy in the position she needs her to be in, but also sees that Kathy can't fight on her back, Jo starts tagging Kathy with hard right hands to her left side and lands a sitting knee to the beautiful fighter's stomach. Lucy Thunder can be seen groaning and shaking her head as her teammate is taking a beating on the ground. Rachel is looking at the clock.

Kathy- Ughh! Ugghh!! OOOH!!

Jo- Kathy, I'm sorry, babes, but I'm gonna have to... ufff!!!

Kathy brings her knees up into Jo's back and pushes the blonde with her arms, forcing the smaller Joanne off of her. Kathy quickly tries to scramble to her feet, but Joanne quickly tackles her, forcing the shoulder back into Kathy's stomach and dropping her down again. Joanne takes a moment to breath and Kathy grabs her and holds her in place, but it's obvious that Joanne's experience with wrestling pays off as she is easily able to slip free and slams a fist into Kathy's stomach and one to her crotch.

Kathy- Nooo!!!

Lucy Thunder- Cheap shot!!

Kathy goes to a fetal position and Jo looks to slip behind her, but the bell rings. Both women get up slowly. Joanne has a busted lip and her cheeks are a bit puffier than usual. The already puffy-cheeked Kathy is up and holding her sides and stomach and slowly makes her way back to her coaches with a dejected look on her face.

Kathy- She had me... she's really... she's really good.

Rachel- She is not good at all. She is terrible. You are allowing yourself to be taken out of this fight mentally. You cannot change what happened to you in your last fight, but you can change the possible outcome of this one.

Nikky- Stay on the outside; stick and move, Kathy. You almost knock her out every time you hit her, especially to the body.

Kathy- I don't know... she hurt me and had me on the ground and--

Gemma- Look Kathy! You don't have to go to the ground with her. You just go out there and put her on the ground with your striking.

Sage- Remember all those fights you won, Kathy? Remember how you were in trouble in each of those fights, but you came back? You're the comeback kid, remember? You can win this.

Over in Joanne's corner, Joanne is huffing and puffing.

Samantha- I thought you were a well-conditioned fighter. What is all this about?

Jo- I haven't been working out at home like I usually would.

Samantha- Why not?

Jo- Laurie won't train with me.

Samantha-... ... ... okay, Joanne. Kathy is going to be coming on strong soon. She's going to come out and try to keep the fight standing up because of her height and reach advantages.

Jo- I can't strike with her. I'll get killed. She'll totally beat me and---

Samantha- Shut up. I don't want to hear that defeatist talk. You had her done in the last round and she got up looking like she didn't want to fight anymore. Now, you come over here with this bullshit about what you can't do. Shut up; go out there and just do it. Fight your fight. Be Girl Wrestler Joanne, or get out of here and go find her.

Jo- I'm feeling kind of funny... I feel pretty hot.

Samantha- Well, do something about it.

Joanne gets up for the next round and rips the bikini top and bottom off, leaving herself standing in just her black boots. Kathy's eyes widen as Joanne smiles at her and blows her a kiss.

Kathy- What is she doing? Why did she take her clothes off like that.

Lucky- To throw you off, ha ha.

(Justice- I didn't like how Joanne took her clothes off, but she is on my team and I will root for her unless we face each other. I don't think a self-respecting lady has to take her clothes off, especially under these circumstances. It was nasty.)

The bell rings and Kathy comes out more cautiously as Joanne smiles at the taller girl and fakes a charge, causing Kathy to back up immediately.

Jo- What, Kathy? You don't want to touch me?

Kathy- No; I don't. But I will!

Kathy nails Joanne with a hard jab to her nose and a straight right hand to her stomach.

Jo- Ughhh... you got me...

Kathy- Totally!

Kathy throws a kick at Joanne's head, but Joanne is able to duck under it and grab Kathy around her waist while trapping the leg. Joanne dry humps Kathy a few times before throwing her over her head in a move that Samantha uses... the Sexyplex. Kathy is hurt, but gets to her feet, only to take a kick to her crotch from Joanne and doubling over into a DDT, the top of Kathy's head slamming into the mat as Joanne does a backwards somersault and lands in face sitter position.

Kathy- Noooo!!! Noo--mmmmpppphhhhh!!!

Rachel is seen watching with her arms folded and a very disgusted look on her face while Samantha is cautiously celebrating as Kathy, who is a virgin and doesn't curse and doesn't go out of her way looking for trouble, is getting a taste of Jo's other lips on her mouth.

Jo- Tap out, Kathy, and I'll stop. No one's ever gotten out of my face-sitter and you're not going to either.

(Shawna- Joanne is full of shit. I've gotten out of that stupid move, and I put her in it and beat her with it.)

Kathy can hear Joanne, but she's not giving up. Her arms are pinned down and she's bucking her legs, but she's on her back and her breathing is being cut off. But with one show of strength, Kathy flexes her small but defined biceps and slams both knees up and into Jo's back, knocking Joanne forward enough for Kathy to slide out from under her. Kathy tries to get up, but the lack of air causes her to only muster enough to get to her hands and knees. Joanne jumps on Kathy's back, wrapping her legs around the taller girl's waist and her arms around Kathy's neck, putting her in another Joanne finisher, and a popular one amount fighters... the scissor sleeper. Joanne's booted foot is rubbing against Kathy's crotch and her arms are tight around Kathy's neck. Jo is able to roll Kathy onto her back and Kathy's face has turned beat red, but she's not tapping out. After about three minutes of choking, Kathy's eyes are vacant and the ref calls the match.

Laurie- Yes!

Rachel and Gemma both glance in Laurie's direction, but Rachel's head never turns to the point where she can see Laurie as Rachel enters the ring, looking pretty disappointed. Lucy Thunder gets into the ring as well and shoves the celebrating Joanne.

Lucy- You're not but a cheater! Any respect I had for you just went out the window!

Joanne- Hey, I won that fight fair and square, Lucy. Chill out!

Kathy tries to stand, but Gemma tells her to stay down and offers her some water.

Gemma- You fought a hell of a fight, Kathy. Don't worry about it; we're going to keep training you and you're going be a fucking beast in the ring.

Love- Fucking beast? Isn't that who she was fighting?

Gemma- Come on, Love. The girl is hurting.

Love- Yeah... she just lost to a woman who hasn't won anything all year. Kathy, you're going to get better. Your problem isn't physical; it's mental. Sort of like you, Gemma.

Joanne- I totally won, just like I said I would. I totally kicked her ass!

(Wilma- I think Girl Wrestler Joanne is like, really stupid, *snort laugh* She won the fight, but she totally fought like crap and she was running around afterward acting like she saved the planet from an alien invasion or something.)

(Dana- Joanne won the fight, but she didn't look very good at all. A better fighter would've had her out in the first round. I sparred with her to help her get ready for this fight and she's a cool chick, but now that she's made the final 16, she's got a lot of work to put in. She's going to have to stop arguing with Shawna, Praggy, and Katrina and realize that out of those three, she's the weakest one... and they aren't who she's going to be facing in the next round either.)

(Rumor- They both suck. Kathy had no ground game and got freaked out by the sight of a naked woman, and Joanne can't fight at all. This is a crap shoot. Laurie Breeze was happier that Joanne won and she probably doesn't even know the girls on her own team because she's too busy spying on our team and being a conceited self-absorbed bitch.)

(Lucy Thunder- Laurie isn't as friendly as I thought she'd be. I heard all this stuff about how she posts inspirational quotes online and all the stuff she's been through, but I don't think she can concentrate on fighting and be that person at the same time. I guess that's because the learning curve for her is so much different than it is for the people who are more experienced. I'll still help her, but she needs to stop hating her haters and show some support for her supporters.)

(Samantha- So, Joanne beat Kathy. I was so worried about that fight, but she pulled it off because she fought her fight instead of fighting Kathy's fight. I always figured she could take a nice girl; she just struggles against mean girls. Now, we've got our eight fighters and Rachel's got hers for the tournament. We get to pick the first fight and I'm going to think about this decision for who I want to put in the cage so that my team can keep the momentum. I see Laurie and Porsche on the other team and how awful they are, but they won because they had heart and because my girls didn't. I've got Dana and Dynamite, who are solid fighters. I've got Rumor and Praggy with their suspect losses, but with something to prove. And I've got girls like Katrina and Justice, who are also solid and are ready to go. Shawna has only beaten Joanne of note, but she's been showing a lot of skill in sparring and Joanne just showed that she's improved. I have to be smart picking a girl on my team to fight and I have to make sure that we win, so that we can keep picking the fights and picking off the Team Rachel girls. I'm going to sit down with my other coaches and maybe even the girls and decide who's going to fight.)

Next Time: Praggy and Victoria make their debuts with their new teams and it doesn't take long for Victoria to rub Gemma the wrong way. And what happens when Love decides to push Lucy Thunder pretty far. Baby Liz continues her mind games, both with her teammates and with Laurie Breeze and Samantha decides which two fights will face off in the first Round of 16 match-up.

Thanks, Jo. I can't make any promises about who you, Laurie, or any one else will be facing in the next round, but it will be interesting to see how things fall into place. Thank you to everyone who has posted a positive comment about this story. Gemma, Laurie, Joanne, and I all have our real lives that we are living, and doing a story like this where so many characters have to be juggled is not easy, so we're extra appreciative of those of you with something nice to say. Thanks!

Another awesome chapter, Howard! I loved the twists 'n surprises! I always knew that Jo would resort to just about anything to win a match 'n this proves it! I never saw it coming though!  ;) :D

I can't congratulate Jo too loudly for winning, I think I've ticked off my coaches 'n teammates enough already.

Can't wait to see who fate or luck puts me in the cage against next round.

Congrats again, Howard!!!  HUGGGZZZZZ 'n XOXOXO

~Laurie~

Ten Down with Siena Blaze...

We got to sit down for ten quick questions with OPW owner, and former 11-time OPW World Champion, "The Bosslady" Siena Blaze. The 5'5" 140 lb 40 year old Siena, still looking very young with her Marilyn Monroe short curly blonde hair, blue eyes, and Madonna sexuality is wearing a red wind suit and some bunny slippers and we met up with her at her huge Beverly Hills estate.

How are things going with Ultimate Catfighter?

"Things are going fine. We've got more talent on this show than ever before. Now, I don't really know how the training is going; that's something you'd have to ask the coaches. I've got enough on my plate with OPW; I let the fighters live and fight and let the coaches coach. But I'm loving what I'm seeing."

2.    Kathy was beaten by Girl Wrestler Joanne and the last time we saw Kathy, she was being knocked out by Tyler The Silver Fox, who is now rumored to possibly have been the one who attacked Gemma Rox in London. Our sources say those two have had past dealings. We know that Kathy was previously undefeated and had a lot of hype behind her and is very marketable, but if she lost, why not have put Tyler on the show instead of Kathy?

"We approached Tyler about being on the show and she turned it down. She said that she had other ideas for getting into OPW and we respect that, but we are monitoring her progress. As for choosing Kathy, just because she lost a fight doesn't mean that she's a lost fighter. Kathy was beating girls up to that point and Tyler was supposed to be a tune up, but anything can happen in that cage. I still think Kathy has a bright future. Look at the girl who beat her, Joanne. She's had a lot of success and she hit some bad spots. You can't just go on that type of stuff; this can jump start a career and a loss can be a wake-up call.

As far as Tyler's past with Gemma and that other stuff you were talking about, I don't have a comment on that. Whatever the issue is there, those two will work it out. Would I like for it to be in a ring or cage associated with my company? Sure. Do I think it will be? Of course not."

3.   Do you have a prediction on who will win Ultimate Catfighter?

"No. Anybody can win because they're training and improving."

4.   Laurie Breeze has gotten into an exchange with Rumor Winfield where Laurie really opened up about her life. Rumor and Samantha both said that if Laurie can't take it, she shouldn't put her personal business out there. Laurie is the most inexperienced girl in the competition; do you have a reaction to all of this?

"My reaction is that while I agree with Samantha and Rumor that Laurie shouldn't get upset about people talking when she wanted to be a part of this and she put her business out there, I think that she is to be commended for having the courage to talk about that sort of stuff. She's come from a dark place, as many of us have, but she's found the light and she can really give people hope. Rachel gave an interview where she said the same thing about Laurie that I'm saying and Nikky Smalls called Laurie a 'hero.' As far as Laurie acting the way she's been acting and not being friendly, I think it would be hypocritical of me or anyone associated with this tournament to get on her about that. She's here to win, not to make friends. When it's over, she probably will make friends, but the girl is focused and you have to respect that. Smiling happy face Laurie Breeze isn't going to win Ultimate Catfighter. Focused and determined Laurie Breeze could."

5.   There was also a comment made about having a "scorecard" posted in Ultimate Catfighter by someone who you're familiar with from past dealings that fell through. Do you want to give a reaction to that?

"Yeah, I heard that ha ha. You know; I tell people that when someone makes a remark, especially a rude one like that, you need to look at who said it. We've given that woman a pass so many times because we respect her and we respect her work, but if she had looked at the first post in this thread, she'd see a scorecard with heights, weights, story references and all kinds of other shit. We've been preparing for this season since the beginning of last season. We've been setting all this stuff up and for her to say something like that when she has her own stuff full of people and maybe a hair color and a name... she's just being a hypocrite.

I don't know, man. You give people a pass. They make Anti-USA comments; you give them a pass. They insult and alienate the males with their comments about abusive men and perfect super model women in the works of those males, then they have abusive men in their own work, but you give them a pass. And that's the same person who lied to us for four or five years about a fight she was going to do with Samantha. Every time we talked to her, she said she was working on it. But it never happened and you know what? We gave her a pass on that too. We've been nothing but nice to her and please don't get me wrong. We respect her more than anyone else; we respect her work. But if she's living in a glass house, she shouldn't be throwing stones.

You just brush that shit off. I have too much other stuff to deal with; I have a life and this is fun to me, but it ain't fun when you've got to address that. To work so hard on this stuff and you would think that of all people, she would understand how frustrating it is, but people will be people. So, you just brush that stuff off. I'm not planning on addressing it again unless it comes up again. But like the saying goes, 'if you don't have shit nice to say about something or someone, don't say shit.' She didn't want to fight anybody over here and every time someone tried to put her in anything or try to ease her into this world, it fell through. We've decided that we move on from stuff like this. We're moving on; we've got Ultimate Catfighter to do."

6.   Rachel Apache was challenged by both Glory and Samantha for her OPW World Title. Is it true that there is going to be a triple threat match?

"We're talking about it. Samantha beat Gemma Rox, who Rachel had informed me that she wanted to face in her return match. We know that Seka cashed in and fought Rachel while Gemma fought Samantha. Samantha has earned the right to face Rachel, but Samantha has taken herself out of the equation for now because she's defending her Television title against Supergirl Kara. Glory has been hurt and is coming off of injury and Sam is saying that Glory should earn the right to fight Rachel, but every former champion has a rematch clause and Glory's a five time World Champion and has only cashed in two of her rematch clauses. But we're trying to do something that'll keep everyone happy."


7.  Rachel and Samantha actually got together this weekend in Miami when Samantha's Miami Dolphins played Rachel's Denver Broncos. The Dolphins were leading 15-0 with three minutes left and the Broncos came back and won. We heard there was a wager between the two women on the outcome of the game. Do you want to share what that was?

"I heard they had a positive conversation and sat next to each other during the game. They still don't like each other though. The wager was about charitable donations and the loser would make a one million dollar donation to the winner's charity; people can come together on charity. I will tell you, Rachel doesn't want to fight Samantha. I'm not saying she doesn't ever want to do it. She has told me that she would rather have a rematch with Allison Payne than fight Samantha. I told Rachel that it would make sense if we had her fight Sam at the Ultimate Catfighter finale with Gemma Rox vs. Justine Credible as an undercard fight to go along with the other matches and the tournament final and third place fight. Rachel said she'd think about it.

I've known Rachel since she was born; she's not afraid of anyone, but she doesn't want to risk losing her title to someone she really doesn't like or someone who in Rachel's own estimations, has not earned a shot. And Samantha's style would give Rachel a lot of trouble. We all know that Sam picks and chooses who she wants to fight and Rachel does the same thing. Samantha is choosing Rachel now... it's probably making Rachel wonder why, like she was wondering about Allison's challenges. Trust me; they'll be fighting at some point, probably at the finale. I'm going to make sure this one happens because it's an obvious match-up for the finale."

8.   We understand you made an appearance and you've been in talks with Gemma Rox. She's been fighting outside of OPW; she's been showing up to shows hurt and missed a few dates. In the past, you've dealt with this sort of thing in a variety of ways, from firing Fortune after the fight you had with her in her office, to allowing Rachel Apache to walk out of the arena when you two were having a contract dispute, to the infamous "I'm going home" incident involving Justine Credible and Prophecy. How do you plan on dealing with this, if at all?

"I'm letting Gemma be Gemma. She's assured me that she will be more consistent and I take her at her word. As you mentioned, a lot of these employees of mine go on hiatus and do all kinds of stuff. A lot of it does piss me off. I wish she'd let me know when she up and gets sad and wants time off or something, but that's the thing about the business. Every time she misses is an opportunity for someone else. In Gemma's absence to injury and her past absences due to issues in her life, we've had Diana Majors, Beth, several others step up. When she comes back, she's got a bigger field to contend with.

Gemma brings a lot of good to the table. She's got a great work ethic and whether she's injured or not, she gives it everything she's got. She really cares about what she brings to OPW and that means a lot more to me than the other stuff. If Gemma's here, then Gemma's working harder than most folks, and that's saying something because we've got some really hard-working people. She's talked to me about some of her ideas; her mind is a well of knowledge. I just don't think she knows it. So, I wouldn't discipline her when she's giving me extra to make up for her gallivanting and moonlight cage fighting and whatever else she's been doing. She's a great asset to us in the ring and out of it."

9.   Is it true that you're planning to face Gemma Rox in a comeback fight? We know that you stay in the gym working out and you're still training fighters, but what are these rumors that you're returning to the ring to face Gemma Rox?

"They're just rumors. I have a lot of fight left in me. If I wanted to compete in OPW, I'm sure I was be pretty successful still. That's not a knock on the girls who are there; I just know what it is to hold all the titles and I know what it is to be successful. So, sure, I look at the roster and I think about how I would fair against Gemma or Diana Majors or Sage or Seka... especially when people talk about how great they are. That helps me as the owner and as someone who wants what's best for them, but the fighter in me is like, 'I could beat her.' So, it's a paradox of sorts."

10.  Beth has gone on a winning streak and is gaining a great deal of popularity in OPW. She's getting a strong push, as is Diana Majors. The landscape in OPW is always changing, but the mainstays like Glory, Rachel, Samantha, and Jasmine are still at the top, despite all four suffering injuries in the past year. That leads me to this question, Beth's 4'11" 92 lb twin sister got a huge push a few years ago and was even a part of the creative, but she hasn't really been around lately, unless it's to address particular people. What is her status with OPW?

"You'd have to ask her that. She comes around and treats us like we don't exist. She was a very close friend of mine. I mentored her; we trained and worked together. We shared secrets and talked about life. So, it really hurt me when she started flat out ignoring us. But I've gotten over it. Sometimes, I do want to tell her that if she can't address all of us, then don't address any of us. Every time she comments, it's a slap in our faces because if you don't like me or you don't like us, then why are you coming into our world to address somebody else who we're working with? It's gotten too blatant and too obvious, but like you said, Beth is coming up and she's doing well. We've got this tournament going on and that's making great stars and it must be pisses some people off because of the stupid things they've said. You want to know what her status is; I'd welcome her back with open arms if she addressed us one time. But she probably doesn't care about us and isn't going to do that. So, we can't care about this and have to roll with the people we've got. I really wanted us to at least make some sort of peace and respect between us, but the statute of limitations with that has passed for me."

Bonus Question: When are you going to debut the very, very popular, Marissa "The Fighting Honor Student" Simmons?

"Soon. She graduated from high school and she's currently in Dallas, working on her technique. She was supposed to team with Triumph, but they've had a falling out ha ha. She'll be getting the call up very soon."

Thanks, Siena.

"You got it, man."

ooohh.... lot to think about there! I love how the rosta is SOOOOOO deep that you can pull perspectives from one of dozens of characters! And using Siena's perspective is great as it's good to get the view of somebody who has nothing to lose in all of this!

And the prospect of a war with Justine Credible? I'm up for that bitch..... ;)

Can't wait for the next update!

x G x

The interviews were always a wonderful way you had of setting background and giving depth to your characters. I have often read them first and then the rest of the story. You let your characters loose in the interviews.

And the interview above is a good example.

"Supergirl" Kara Cunningham vs. Queen Samantha: OPW Television Title Match at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Many celebrities and figures from the fighting world have packed into the MGM Grand for this fight. A shot is shown of several notable people in the audience, including Gemma Rox looking rather calm in street clothes and drinking a beer, the entire cast of 20 girls from Ultimate Catfighter are there, looking very uneasy in their seats. Allison Payne is there with her trainer General Cutter, sitting with her arms folded and looking at the ring. Glory gives a wave to the camera from her seat between Jasmine Raheid and Nikky Smalls as the fans chant her name, but Siena Blaze gets the biggest reaction from the crowd when she is shown.

"The Final Countdown" by Europe hits, and the fans erupt as Supergirl Kara Cunningham comes out. The 6'1" 150 lb Kara with her long blonde hair, round face, and deep blue eyes is from Minnesota, has the figure that is somewhere between fitness model and swimsuit model, and is a national champion in Olympic Wrestling and has won several Sambo tournaments, but is noted for her run in last season's Ultimate Catfighter, beating Jonica in brutal fashion, only to lose to Athena in the Quarterfinals after knocking the Greek champion down several times.

Kara has since made a big splash in OPW, defeating Dawn Rankin, Vixxxen, Tito Blaze, and winning several tag team matches with Beth B., as well as having a thrilling match with Justine Credible that ended in a disqualification when Vixxxen interfered. Kara has on blue cut off top with the S symbol on it in red and is wearing red lycra shorts and red boots. Kara looks very serious as she makes her way to the ring to a great ovation. Kara entered OPW with a violent rage to match her incredible strength, but since working with Roxy Powers and doing some training with Glory, Kara has calmed down a bit and has even taken Roxy's theme music. She bounces around and raises her arms.

"Dancing Machine" by The Jacksons begins to play, and Samantha comes out to many, many boos, but many cheers as well. The 5'9" 144 lb Sam has long curly red hair, honey skin, and aqua green eyes and is dressed in a black collared armless top that is tucked into her black bell bottomed shiny pants. She's wearing the blue and silver OPW Television Title around her waist and she's got black flame designs all over her outfit that are outlined in white and black grappling gloves with white flamed knuckles to match her white boots with black flaming tips. Samantha is staring right at Kara, even as the fans are really yelling and screaming at her. The last time Samantha fought, she beat Gemma Rox in a violent Hell In a Cell match and was severely injured in the riot afterward. This is her return to active competition and she enters the ring, hands the belt to the referee and continues to stare at her larger opponent.

The bell rings and Kara comes out with her fists raised, while Samantha surprises Kara by coming right at her. Kara takes a jab to her chin, a right hand to her jaw and a knee to her ribs, but grazes Sam with a winging right hand to her chin. Sam stumbles and Kara moves in to take her down, but the redhead is ready and deliberately falls into the ropes, holding Kara and tangling them both in the ropes. Kara pushes hard and Samantha backs off to the center of the ring smiling, while the tall blonde comes after her. Samantha throws weak jabs out there that Kara avoids and ignores, but once Kara comes in for a takedown, she gets cracked with a hard right hand and takes a follow up left hook to the pit of her stomach, bending her slightly. Samantha looks to grapple with Kara and Kara smiles; this is her game, but Sam quickly slips behind Kara and slams a hard right hand to the blonde's kidney, forcing a pained yelp from Kara and staggers the blonde with a roundhouse kick to her ribs on the right side.

Kara- Uhhh!!

Samantha moves in as Kara folds over and throws a combination of punches... two left hooks to the ribs and one to the side of the head, a right hand to the ribs, a left uppercut to the nose, a right uppercut to the left eye, a short winging right to the ear, then Kara gets her arms around Sam's waist and left arm, lifts her up high as Sam places her right hand behind her head, and slams the redhead down hard on the mat, as the fans shout their approval. Sam is able to free her left arm and Kara begins to rain down the punches as she has Samantha almost on her back. Sam takes several hard shots to her chin, before rolling more to her side and Kara attempts to force Sam on her back, but the redhead slips free.

Kara's game is grappling and wrestling and while she's a great striker as well, she knows that as long as she has Sam on the mat, she has the advantage. She grabs the redhead's legs and locks on a heel hook, forcing Sam to wince, but the redhead grabs the ropes and Kara decides to stand and pull Sam by her foot to the middle of the ring. Kara bends down to apply another leglock, but Sam kicks up with her other foot and catches the blonde flush in the mouth.

Kara- Mmpphh!!

Kara is stood up by the kick, but quickly looks to resume the leg lock, however, Sam gives her a kick low in the stomach, slightly below Kara's large deep oblong shaped navel and the blonde gurgles and staggers back, doubled over. Glory can be seen folding her arms and sighing as Samantha gets to her feet and lands two hard leg kicks to Kara's left leg, dodges a right hand, then lands a jumping knee to Kara's nose. Kara is near the ropes and Sam lands two hard hooks deep to Kara's belly, forcing the blonde to lower her arms, then a right cross to her left eye, opening a cut. Kara groans and charges, throwing a combination of power shots, but Sam backpedals and crosses her arms, rolling her shoulder in the Philly Shell and tagging Kara with a left hook to her jaw, turning the blonde's head and knocking her off balance before landing a straight right hand to Kara's navel, bending her slightly.

Samantha hits Kara with two jabs to her nose and drops her arms, circling the blonde who now has a bleeding nose. Sam's back is near the ropes and Kara charges in, throwing another hard combination of strikes, but Sam's Philly Shell shoulder movement and arms are enough for those punches to graze her or miss. Samantha shakes her head from side to side at Kara to indicate this, before nailing her with a jab to the nose and a jab to the stomach and avoids the left hook right cross combo Kara attempts.

Glory- Grab her, Kara!!! When she's near the ropes, grab her and take her down!!

Nikky Smalls- I taught her way too way. She fights backing up almost as good as I do.

Glory- I know.

Samantha hears what Glory is saying and raises her arms, daring Kara to try to grab her.

Gemma- Come on, Kara!!! Knock that bitch out!!!

Samantha gestures at her chin and Kara fires a left hook... and it lands. Sam's legs turn to jelly and her eyes widen as the crowd goes wild and Kara grabs her around the waist, spinning her and slamming her in a belly to belly suplex, 1,2, Sam kicks out.

Glory- She went for the pinfall way too early. She should've gone for the mount.

Jasmine- She's young; she will learn.

Nikky- I'm taking notes, ha ha.

Kara pulls Samantha to her feet and goes for a short armed clothesline, but the redhead ducks it, puts Kara in a full nelson and throws her backwards in a Tiger Suplex, 1,2, Kara kicks out.

Gemma- Did she really just do that?

Hood- Yes; she did. You should know what she can do by now.

Samantha stands over Kara and stomps hard on her stomach.

Kara- OUGH!!!

Sam grabs Kara's legs and goes for a sharpshooter, but Kara kicks Sam with both feet to her chest and Sam is sent into the corner. Kara immediately gets up and charges, slamming a clothesline into the redhead. Kara sees Sam's eyes roll back in her head and her legs buckle, so the tall blonde sits Sam on the top turnbuckle, climbs up there with her, but Sam pushes her, grabs her by either side of her head and jumps off, slamming Kara's face and stomach down on the mat while landing in a seated position... super face buster. Samantha's spine took an impact on that move and she goes on her side holding the small of her back instantly. The crowd is stomping as Kara slowly starts to come around, wiping the blood from her face.

Glory- Stomp her while she's down, Kara! You've got to take away some of her energy!

Kara goes for a stomp, but Sam quickly slips out of the ring. Kara sees Sam's back to her and immediately grabs the redhead by her hair and yanks her up on the ring apron, but Sam hooks Kara's head from behind and tries to give her a modified stunner, but Kara shoves Sam and sends her to the floor while Kara's neck is still jerked hard. Samantha gets to her feet in time to see Supergirl flying over the top rope and crashing down on her, mashing Sam into the steel barricades. Fans chant "HOLY SHIT!!!" as Kara pulls Sam up and lands hooks and winging right hands to her ribs and doubles her over with a shot just above the navel.

Sam- Ohhhh!!

Kara grabs Sam by the back of her head and throws her at the ring post. Sam turns, but her left shoulder takes the impact and she's clearly hurt, but dodges Kara as the blonde's foot goes right by Sam's head and gets stuck between the bottom rope and the ring apron. As Kara pulls her foot free, Sam nails her flush with a hard sidekick to her chin, dropping the tall blonde to the floor.

Sam- That's not just the coolest, that's not just the best, that kick was taught to me by Justine Credible! Whoooo!!!

Sam lifts Kara up and rolls her into the ring, placing her head just outside of the ring apron and standing with one leg on either side of her body. Sam jumps and drops both feet on Kara's already aching stomach, forcing another "OOOOF!!!" from her, then grabs the top rope and flips over, dropping her crotch on Kara's face in her move, The Moneymaker. Samantha lands on her feet outside the ring and runs forward, smiling in Gemma Rox's face, who is seated on the front row.

Sam- I'm the Queen, bitch!

Samantha quickly slides into the ring, covers Kara by folding her arms around her head and laying back on Kara, using the blonde's stomach as a pillow, 1,2, Kara violently kicks out. Samantha sits Kara up, then slides behind her, bringing her legs under Kara's armpits, over her shoulders and crossing them behind her head and laying back... this is the submission hold Sam calls The Miami Vice. Kara's neck is under an amazing amount of pressure, but Kara has come way to far to give up now. She knows she's good and she knows she's only had a few good moments in this match. She's bleeding; she's hurting; she's angry and disappointed in herself, but she gets her strong legs under her and leans back. The result is that Sam's shoulders are down and she's in a pin, 1,2, Sam lifts her shoulders up, but Kara stands with Sam still on her, then drops to a seated position. Sam's head and back bang the mat hard and Kara is easily able to pull free of the hold as the crowd goes wild.

Samantha gets her legs around Kara's waist as Kara attempts to lock her arms around Sam's neck and left arm in an arm triangle, but Sam starts firing those elbows of hers into the top of Kara's head down to her forehead and eyes. Kara sits up in the mount and starts throwing punches down on Sam, but the redhead brings her legs up and grabs Kara's arm, looking for a triangle hold that Kara easily powers out of. Kara is bleeding badly now and is laying on Sam, trying to set up a submission hold, get a pinfall, or drain her energy. Kara has Sam's right arm extended and nails Sam with a forearm across the face.

Sam- Ooh!!

Kara lands several short right hands to Sam's stomach, but avoids trapping her own arm between the redhead's legs. Sam responds with three hard short hooks to Kara's right side and liver and Sam hears Kara exhale. Kara sits up again and Sam hits her with a rising forearm across the stomach.

Kara- Oooooh!!!

Sam releases the body scissors as Kara puts her right forearm on Sam's fat left cheek and starts punching the side of her head with right hands. Sam puts her knee on Kara's stomach, stopping the blonde from laying on her and slams a right hand just below Kara's left set of ribs. Kara exhales again and Sam hits her in her bleeding nose with a right hand that makes Kara sit up a bit and when Kara leans back down, Sam brings that knee up into her stomach.

Kara- Uggghhh...

Kara's hand goes to her stomach instantly as Sam slips out from under her and Kara quickly tries to get her back down, but Sam gets to her feet. Kara grabs Sam around her waist and lifts her up for a slam, but Sam hooks her legs into the ropes and the ref tells Kara to break the hold, so Kara yanks Sam off the ropes, but loses her balance as Sam forces more momentum and cross bodies the blonde to the mat, 1,2, Kara kicks out. Both women get to their feet as Sam sees Kara is getting a bit of a second wind, but is bleeding badly and hurt. Once again, Samantha has her arms dropped near her sides. Sam lands a quick jab to Kara's stomach and moves back as the blonde bends and swallows. Sam steps in with a jab to Kara's nose and two hard fast right hands that nail Kara's cut left eye and a left hook to her right cheek with another one to her liver followed by a right hand to her navel, then moves away with her arms low.

Samantha raises her right hand and makes a "come on" gesture with it, before firing it into Kara's head and snapping it back, blood spraying from the blonde's nose as she cries "Unnnhhh!!!!" right before Sam kicks her in the pit of her stomach, forcing a "Guuuggghhh" from her as she doubles over. Sam bounces off the ropes and lands her signature axe kick to the back of Kara's head and the blonde goes down hard, then Sam windmills herself to her feet (wrestler Booker T. does this and it's called the Spinarooni). Samantha rolls Kara over and climbs the top turnbuckle; while facing Kara, Samantha backflips, but propels herself forward and lands across Kara's stomach with her Shooting Star Press, 1,2,3! QUEEN SAMANTHA HAS DEFEATED SUPERGIRL KARA CUNNINGHAM TO RETAIN THE OPW TV TITLE.

Kara is given a loud applause as she leaves the ring, holding her stomach and Frankie J. enters the ring to interview Samantha, who raises the belt over her head and drops to her knees.

Frankie- Samantha, clearly this an emotional moment for you, coming back from so many injuries during the riot in London, and making a successful title defense.

Samantha- (eyes shedding tears) It feels good to be back. We trained so hard and my team kept telling me don't give up. They helped me overcome all the haters and all the shit talkers and all those people out there who were wishing that mob had killed me in London. But we did it... IQ's for LIFE, Skeleton Crew for LIFE... I'm just like... what? What? They said I couldn't beat her; I beat her with my shoulder hurt; I beat her and I'm nowhere near one hundred percent. I stopped a Suuuuuuuuuuupergirl.

Frankie- Well, you're certainly not any less arrogant.

Samantha- You know what, Frankie? Fuck you. You don't ever give me credit for anything. You always have something smart ass to say to me ever since I kicked you in the balls three years ago. I beat them all, Kayla, Marie, Jessika, Jonica, Gemma, Rachel, Kara... you can't say shit to me. Supergirl Kara told me a year ago in New Orleans that she was gonna destroy me. Well, who got destroyed? I just wish I had fought that bitch in Minnesota so her family could've watched me kick her ass.

Frankie- I notice you fought with her hands down for most of the fight. Was that because you didn't respect her power and quickness?

Samantha- No. If she's out of range, I don't need to hold my arms up. Plus, we knew she was going to try and take me down, so I kept my arms low. But once she started feeling my power and my body shots... and I have really, really good body shots, she couldn't handle it. She can fight with a lot of those girls back there, but I'm one of the smartest fighters in the game and all that destroying and running people over may work with those brawlers and one dimensional types, but you ain't beating me with that bullshit. I've trained with Glory too and Kara ain't Glory.

Frankie- Speaking of that... what's next for you? I know you're coaching on Ultimate Catfighter, but there's been a lot of negotiating going on and rumors are out that you may face Rachel Apache for the OPW World Title at the UC finale, or you may face Glory for the right to face Rachel, or Rachel may fight Glory while you fight the winner of the Allison Payne/Jasmine match or Serenity when she fully returns, or Rachel will defend the World Title against you and Glory in a triple threat match.

Samantha- I want Rachel at the finale. I think it's obvious that I'm the number one contender for the World Title. Glory hasn't had a match recently because of her injuries and she can't just slide in and get a title shot. She needs to wait her turn, and I don't care how many rematch clauses she has saved up over the years. How many main events has Glory been in with the World Title on the line? Those should have counted. I want a match with Jasmine and I've already fought Allison twice. She beat me both times and I don't see why we need to fight again when I'm the number one contender for the World Title, but Rachel The Coward Apache wants to duck me like she ducked Allison. I want Rachel and after I beat her fake purple pussy ass and take her title, Glory's big lipped, big mouthed big bitch ass will be next.

Frankie- Thank you, Samantha.

Samantha- Fuck you, Frankie. Oh, and one other thing... we've decided that for the first fight in the round of 16 in Ultimate Catfighter, my girl Dana "The Girlie Grim Reaper" Black is going to fight "Perfect 10" Porsche Green. I'm the Queen, bitches!

NEXT: Training resumes as Porsche and Dana prepare to face each other...

Congrats Howard!!!  :) ;) ;D Another wonderful chapter of the series! The fight description was so detailed, intense 'n graphic ... like always, you put us right there up close to the action!!! Can't wait for the next UC2 training sessions 'n fight!!!

huggggzzzzz

~Laurie~

Hail, Samantha; she's proven herself Queen again, and again! Winks!  :D ;)

Hugs
Kayla

Awesome story Howard ;D and as it features my one of my more intense rivals Samantha... I thought I'd give my rerply in the form of a mini story :D

Can't wait for more! GO TEAM RACHEL!!!!

Frankie, Hood and Gemma Rox are stood at ringside, the arena is closing down and the crowd are starting to leave. The loud rustling hubbub of the exiting masses fills the air as Gemma sinks the last of her beer and smiles at Frankie. She has the playful giggle of a girl who's on her way to blissful inebriation

Frankie - I'm here with Gemma Rox and Hood who was sat ringside during 'Queen' Samantha's victory over 'Supergirl' Kara

Gemma - Hey Frankie! Hehe... you're looking good! Don't know how I never noticed that before...

Gemma Giggles as she plays with an increasingly embarrassed Frankie's tie

Hood - damn... you go for men? I always thought you were super gay...

Gemma - Hahahaha! I'll go for anything with a pulse! You doing anything later?

Hood - You're drunk! Sit down before you fall down

Gemma - I'm not drunk! I'm just a little happy is all!

Frankie - Erm... yes.... Well, lets discuss the match tonight, Gemma, you've had your run in's with Samantha in the past. What was your take on the action tonight?

Gemma - You know Frankie... I know the journalist in you is hoping I lash out at her but as pissed as I am right now I have to give credit where it's due! She fought one hell of a fight, to dominate against a fighter of Kara's calibre is something else, you know? Not many girls on the planet could have imposed their will on Kara like Samantha did. So yeah... Congratulations are in order for one hell of a fight

Frankie - I must be honest it's surprising to hear you praise Samantha like that

Gemma - look, just because she's a cxnt doesn't mean she can't fight! I don't have to like the bitch to respect her prowess in the ring.

Hood - and the truth is... as much as she plays the villain there must be something more to her than that. I mean, she wouldn't have had fighters like Nikki Smalls train her if she was an utter bitch. And hey... we hung with Katora during the first season of Ultimate Catfighter, that's one cool girl, ya feel me? She wouldn't be in Sam's camp if she was all bitch all the time.

Frankie - are you implying that Samantha is being less than honest with her persona?

Hood - hey now... don't you be spinning shit! All I'm saying is maybe the crap the media circulate isn't the whole picture is all. Who knows what she's like behind closed doors

Gemma - well she's always been a bitch to me behind closed doors...

Hood - Anyway.... We can all agree she fought one hell of a fight

Gemma - And we can agree that Frankie is one hot lil piece of ass... Hehehe!

Frankie - well... Urm.... Er.... That's all from us at ringside, back to the studio

x G x

Terrific updates from both of you!  This series rocks!

:D

Howard Cosell is shown backstage with the 6'2" 170 lb biracial (Black father; Puerto Rican mother) mocha skinned marauder and former 5-time OPW World Champion, to name a few of her accomplishments, Glory. Glory looks like actress Rosario Dawson, has her glasses on and has her long black hair down and is smiling in a stunning navy blue dress with open toed blue heels with gold trim.

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gotceleb.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fcelebrities%2Frosario-dawson%2Fshape-magazine-august-2011%2FRosario%2520Dawson%2520in%2520Shape%2520Magazine%2520August%25202011-01-560x964.jpg&hash=55585c9177b53d09e239bc1a1d7b127e5711fccb)

Howard Cosell- Thank you, young Frankie. This is Howard Cosell here with Glory. Glory, I must say, for a woman with such ferocity in the ring, you look stunning outside of it. Your hair is down from the usual Mohawk; you have on a dress instead of her silver one piece with black thigh high boots, and I see you're wearing a lighter shade of lipstick from the brutal blood red.

Glory- Well Howard, there's business and there's pleasure. The way I'm dressed now means this is business.

HC- I understand, heh heh. Tell the viewers what you thought of the fight.

Glory- I thought Kara gave a good account of herself, but she didn't fight the right fight. You've got to be willing to take that punishment to give it. She's a great striker and Sam is very, very defensively sound. Kara played into Sam's hands and she should've fought her fight.

HC- So, if that was you in there against Samantha, the outcome would've been different.

Glory- No question. Kara is still learning the transition from her style of fighting and how it applies here, but I don't see too much she needs to fix. I feel like next time, she needs to impose her will on Sam and not let Sam dictate the pace of the fight. You have to fight your fight.

HC- Now, the question comes about the World Title picture. You and the champion, Rachel Apache, have expressed a mutual interest in a third fight between you two for the World Title. However, Samantha has stated that she's the true number one contender and that you should wait your turn.

Glory- I have title shot clauses that I earned. She's saying that I didn't earn the right to fight Rachel, but she's forgotten that before Seka injured me, Rachel and I were close to signing a contract for a fight. While I've been hurt, Sam beat Gemma Rox, (rolling her eyes and speaking sarcastically) Justine Credible, and Kara, but that doesn't mean that she can take my spot. She's the one who needs to wait her turn.

HC- She also said that you would be next after she beats Rachel.

Glory- Well, first of all, I don't think she can beat Rachel. I've trained with Samantha four years ago; I've taught her a lot about wrestling and I think she's just learning how to fight with heart. Only until these recent matches, she's folded in big moments. She had the cage match against Rachel won and she blew it. She got her ass handed to her by Allison Payne. I still don't know if she's got heart. She was expected to beat Gemma and she was expected to beat Kara. She's never won a fight she wasn't expected to win. She cherry picks her opponents now and we haven't really seen her tested against an opponent who she's not already favored to beat. We know she won't be the favorite when she faces Rachel.

HC- But you have to admit, Glory, four years was a long time ago and she's improved greatly. She's not my favorite fighter or person, but she's gotten a lot better.

Glory- She has. But I have yet to see the warrior in her.

HC- Why do you feel you deserve a title shot more than she does?

Glory- Look at my resume and look at hers. I am a former 5 Time World Champion, a People's Champion, TV Champion, Tag Team Champion, 2000 Queen of The Ring and I've won the Battle Royal six times out of seven attempts. I am the only woman in OPW history to hold all the major titles, be Queen of the Ring and the Battle Royal winner at the same time in the same year (it should be noted that Rachel Apache held all the titles simultaneously in 1996 and 1998, winning the Battle Royal in both those years, but was Queen of the Ring in 1995 and as is the custom, once you win the tournament, you don't reenter it).

Glory- In 11 years of being a fighter, going all the way back to 2000, when I debuted as a green 15 year old girl, I have only three losses in my career and they come to Allison Payne, Lady Jasmine Raheid, and Rachel Apache, the best active fighters in the sport not named Glory. Who the hell is Samantha? One reign as OPW World Champion off a sneak attack and then, her reign didn't last five full days. Tag Team champion back in 1999 and that run was so pathetic, she doesn't even acknowledge that she won the title; Queen of the Ring in 2007 and still acting like she is now, and a second reign as TV Champion, now cherry picking her opponents. This is a no contest. I'm not saying that she hasn't earned the right to fight Rachel for the title. I'm saying that I have earned that right many many times over and Sam needs to step to the left and wait her damn turn.

HC- Okay, I'm getting word that we have Samantha joining us via videoconferencing in the locker room. Samantha, what is your response to what you are hearing here?

Samantha- It sounds to me like two people who really don't know what the hell they're talking about.

HC- I'm sorry?

Samantha- I SAID it sounds like two people who really don't have a clue what the hell they're talking about.

HC- Okay Samantha, the floor is yours. What would you like to say about this? And congratulations on your victory tonight.

Samantha- She's saying I don't have any heart. I just beat a National Champion wrestler and a girl who's won multiple Sambo tournaments. I beat the Ultimate Catfighter winner to a bloody pulp, got stomped on in a riot, and came back before I was close to being fully healed. I can't help it if I'm that good. But don't question my heart. I think when people start talking about other people's hearts, then those people need to look in the mirror.

Glory- What people are you talking about? If you're talking about me, then say it.

Samantha- Look, I don't have to talk to Glory because Glory is a non motherfuckin factor. I want to talk to Rachel Apache, the champion I have earned a shot at. Glory was sitting at the commentator's table nursing her knee and she wants to just come back and get a title shot. That's bullshit. I'm the number one contender; I didn't have anything to do with Glory getting hurt.

Glory- Seka hit me with Samantha's sledgehammer.

Samantha- Like I said, I didn't have shit to do with that. Seka and I don't go out for burgers and fries. She got it somehow and hit Glory. But if Glory had been watching her own ass, she would've seen that coming. But that's what Glory is. She thinks she can just do whatever she wants to and when somebody hurts her, she wants to bully her way back to the top. Fuck that. You have to earn a shot.

Glory- You know what, Howard? When this girl came to me--

Samantha- I'm not a girl; don't even play that game with me. I'm older than you are. I'm 32; you're 26.

Glory- Yeah, and look how much more I've done in fighting than you have. Shut up. Like I was saying, when this GIRL came to me and asked me to help her with her wrestling, she couldn't wrestle her way out of her own bed. Now, she acts like she's the greatest of all time. She wants to call me a bully? Seriously, Sam? That's what your insult is? You're nothing but a damn hypocrite and a poser.

Samantha- How am I the poser? You come to the ring all made up yelling and talking all this crush, kill, destroy bullshit... look at you now, like all mild mannered. You're not a superhero. You don't have a secret identity, you phony ass bitch. Don't go there with me, Glory. I will talk about the real Glory.

Glory- You can say whatever you want, Sam. I'm an open book. And while you're at it, you can tell everybody how you pulled out of fights with me on four separate occasions going all the way back to 2007 when we were supposed to fight in Manchester, England and you pulled out of the fight. You knew I was going to beat you and you let the fans down every time.

Sam- Hold up. I had issues with the security in England. And look... I was right. What happened to me in London, dumb ass? You were there.

Glory- You're the phony. Glory shows up and Glory fights whoever dares stand in front of her. Don't sit back there with your friends and try to act bad. You've never wanted to fight Glory.

Sam- Oh Lord, here we go. You know you're angry now; you're doing that dumb ass third person shit. When I beat Rachel and take her title, you can have the first shot, you big lipped, Chihuahua in drag looking snaggletooth bitch.

Glory- I've been voted the sexiest fighter in the world three times, so calling me ugly isn't going to help you, Sam. This is exactly why Rachel doesn't want to fight you. You're a bitch and you haven't done enough to deserve a title shot over me. So, you had a winning streak. I was undefeated for six years.

Sam- That's the past; this is the present. You know Glory, you talk about me being a phony. You're on all this bullshit about how you're celibate, but I've seen your big ass pussy. Glory used to walk around the lockerroom butt ass naked with her big ass pussy hanging out and she'd even make jokes about how big it is. You know you did, Glory. Don't front.

HC- This has certainly taken a turn.

Glory- (smiling) Oh, you want to go there, huh? We clown around a lot in the locker room and girls do walk around with no clothes on. I am celibate, but that doesn't mean I don't like to have my fun and everyone who knows me knows that. (to Cosell) Whatever Sam saw, she liked. She can't act like I'm Herman Cain and I sexually harassed her, because she was getting more ass backstage than Justin Beiber.

Sam- AND you smoke weed. Glory smokes marijuana, Cosell.

Glory- I don't smoke marijuana where it's illegal. I've given interviews about that and how it helps with the condition I have with my eyes.

Sam- You are so full of shit. Glory and Nikky Smalls both smoke weed. And marijuana probably gives you a competitive advantage over your opponents, you fucking pothead.

Glory- Girl, you are really trying to stretch it, aren't you? Let's get back to the main discussion here. We both have a problem because we both want to fight Rachel Apache for the World Title. I will be willing to do a triple threat match, since you just have to be involved.

Samantha- I don't want you involved at all. I could beat both of you the same night, but I want Rachel one on one at the finale and you can kiss my ass because when I beat her--

Glory- Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. I'm next, just like you said before and pulled out of our fight four times with crappy excuses. Okay, big mouth, I have an idea because your cowardly ass keeps saying that you're the best and I don't think you can beat me. So, lets do this... at the next OPW Pay Per View, you and I fight in the first match of the night. The winner fights Rachel for the World Title in the Main Event the same night. Put your money where your big ass mouth is, your highness.

Samantha- I'm not doing that. That gives Rachel an advantage. I'm not going to spend energy kicking your ass and then fight a fresh Rachel Apache. That's stupid, but it's so like you.

Glory- (to Cosell) Didn't she just say she could beat us both on the same night. She doesn't want to fight me.

Samantha- Look, I'm getting off this stupid video now. Let me close with this. Glory, you're just a big ass jealous ass bitch. Every time somebody comes along and does well in OPW, whether it's Kayla or me or Seka or anybody, you always have to open your mouth and try to get back in the spotlight. How many cards have ended with you giving the winner of the main event the Rock Bottom and standing over somebody like you're still the best? It's my time and you can't fucking deal with it, then fuck you plus tax, bitch. Wait your turn.

Glory- Girl, you're lucky you're not in here with me, because I'd show you the difference between us. Whether you like it or not, if you want the kingdom, the power, and the glory, you're going to have to go through Glory to get it. Glory out.

HC- Now, Glory has taken off her earpiece and has stormed off. Wait... it's my understanding that we were able to get Rachel Apache, the OPW World Champion on the phone. If the other two hadn't left, we would've been able to have all three available at the same time. Good evening, Rachel. Are you there?

Rachel- I am here. But not for long. This better be important. I do not appreciate being called this late at night to give a reaction to the foolishness I just watched.

HC- Sorry to disturb you. We promise we will be brief. What did you think of the match tonight? Was Samantha's performance impressive?

Rachel- No.

HC- What about her does impress you?

Rachel- Nothing.

HC- Glory said she would be willing to face you and Samantha in a triple threat match for your title, do you--

Rachel- Glory is not the OPW World Champion. I am.

HC- I don't believe I understand.

Rachel- (soundly calm, but increasingly angry) Glory does not tell me what to do and who to fight. I will decide that myself.

HC- Well, what about Siena Blaze?

Rachel- (irritated) What about her?

HC- She's the owner and the booker and she would have some say in this, don't you--

Rachel- She is an instigator and a pitiful excuse for a businesswoman. Who is Siena Blaze to imply that I don't want to fight someone else in that stupid interview she gave? She of all people should know that Rachel Apache fears no one.

HC- Rachel, you sound pretty upset.

Rachel- What do you care? I was having a nice, quiet evening with my family and you call me in the middle of the night, just to get my reaction to two fighters with no say in my decision making process who are arguing over what I will ultimately decide.

HC- Okay, Rachel, I'm just asking questions. I didn't know you would be called; I don't make those decisions.

Rachel- Look. Rachel Apache will fight who she wants, when she wants. And when I do fight again, I will win. I am the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. You tell those two misfits you had arguing that I said that, in case they've forgotten.

HC- Samantha announced that Dana Black would be fighting your fighter Perfect 10---

Rachel- We will train Porsche Green to win the fight. I have to go. Tell Siena Blaze that if she ever bothers me when I am spending time with my family again, I am going to put her through a wall. (hangs up)

HC- Well, that was certainly an interesting set of exchanges. I can't wait to see how this World Title picture is going to be sorted out. In the meantime, tune in to the next episode of Ultimate Catfighter as Team Rachel and Team Samantha resume their training. There's even a rumor out there that Siena may surprise the girls and the coaches with two fights in one night. This is Howard Cosell, telling it like it is. Take care.

Put her through a wall... HAHAHAHAHA! :D I like that side of Rachel!

awesome as always Howard!

x G x

once again the interviews (both yours HC and G Rox's) are wonderful, they are so good for building the scene and the characters. Bravo!

Thank you, everyone!!  :)

The Los Angeles training facility that hosts Ultimate Catfighter... it's just after lunchtime in the evening, just a couple of hours before Team Rachel starts their training for the day. Usually, Rachel's team trains in the morning, but Samantha has given her team the day off, so Rachel set training for later in the evening after the drive back from Las Vegas. At this time, in a small office, Rachel, Samantha, Gemma Rox, Glory, Siena Blaze, and Christina Munoz, as well as the redheaded freckled OPW intern turned board member, Tracy, have gathered to make an attempt at ending the World Title squabble.

Glory has her long black hair up in a ponytail and is smiling in a white blouse with narrow blue stripes, a pair of blue pants and blue flats. Samantha is dressed in an aqua green blouse to match her eyes and black pants with black shoes. Gemma is dressed in a red tank top, black jeans and black boots. Rachel Apache has her extremely long wavy black hair down and is dressed in a purple button up shirt, a small black jacket over it, black pants and black boots, while Siena is dressed in a red business suit and Christina is dressed in a black tank top and black jeans with black boots with her curly black hair in a ponytail.

Siena- Okay... I have several contracts on the table and we've provided you a copy of each. I want to make this as smooth a process as possible. I asked Gemma to be here so that she can observe the contract negotiations and because I have a proposition of my own for her.

Gemma- Really?

Siena- We'll talk about it soon enough.

Rachel- I don't have time to sit here and go over these materials. I will tell what I am willing to do. I will defend my title against Glory in New York City. I will consider defending it against Samantha at the finale.

Glory- You won't have it at the finale. Let's sign it and get it done.

Samantha- Wait a minute. You guys can't do that to me. I have earned the right to a title shot; I am the number one contender. I should fight Rachel either at the next event or at the finale.

Glory- There was never an official announcement that you replaced me as number one contender. Sorry, but you're wrong.

Rachel- I have stated what I am willing to do.

Samantha- This is not fair. These two always get their way, no matter what. I'm not taking step aside money and I'm not taking a step aside match. Glory is the one who should be fighting for the right to fight Rachel.

Glory- And Glory offered to fight you with the winner fighting for the title. But you turned that down last night.

Samantha- It's not about you. You're an non factor in this. I don't even know why you're here.

Rachel- Siena... I'm growing impatient with this.

Siena- Like I really give a shit.

Rachel stands and removes her sunglasses. She stares at Siena with a coldness in her eyes as Siena sits back in her chair and stares back. Glory looks at Rachel and smiles with curiosity as Sam and Christina look at each other and grin while Gemma touches Rachel's arm as if to try and calm her down.

Siena- You should know by now that your little pouty faces don't frighten me. And as far as putting me through a wall, (standing up) you've got four to choose from.

Rachel and Siena are staring at each other while Glory is chuckling at them both and Samantha is looking on, drinking a Cherry 7up with a straw.

Siena- Since none of you can agree on anything, Gemma, what do you think? Put yourself in my shoes and tell us how you'd resolve this.

Gemma- You're asking my opinion?

Samantha- Great, another self-absorbed egotistical me me me person chimes in.

Gemma- Fuck you, Sam!

Samantha- Speak your mind, bitch.

Gemma- Thanks, bitch. Siena, well.... Sam's current performances I think put her right into the title shot, if I'm honest. And Glory? She's earned a title shot a dozen times over, coming off an injury or not, she's one of the best in the world. So... you got two contenders? Your head instantly says Triple threat. Now as a fighter, I don't like the triple threat match. Not one bit... this is the world championship and I don't think it's fair that a champion can lose her belt without ever getting pinned or submitted. But... at the same time, we've got to look at the bigger picture. We fight because people spend their hard earned money to be entertained. And as much as I hate the idea of a title fight going to a triple threat, the fans would probably love the idea of these three in a ring together.

Rachel- Gemma, you can't be serious. I don't only fight for the fans. I fight for legacy. I fight for honor. I fight for glory.

Glory- Thanks, Rachel. I didn't know you cared.

Rachel- (angry) Silence.

Glory- (smiling and winking) Violence.

Rachel- And you will no doubt get your fill.

Gemma - I'm sorry Rachel... I know it's not fair on you, but I was asked my opinion and this is it. We should be fighting for the people, not for ourselves. It's the World Championship and the fans want to see the best in the world fighting for it.

Samantha- And because you fight for the people and not for yourself, that is why you will always lose when it counts. You're the most self absorbed fighter I've ever met. You try to make everything about you and play tough, then play the victim. You challenged me and then, you took so long to make the fight, a snail with arthritis going through peanut butter in the middle of January would've fought me sooner.

Rachel- (sighing and losing some sternness) Fine. But there will be stipulations if I am to defend my title in such a match and take this sort of risk.

Siena- And those are?

Rachel- I will only agree to do this under these circumstances. If somehow, one of these two pitiful excuses for contenders walks out with my title, I get the first shot in a one on one match.

Glory- I agree to that. I have my own stipulation though. If you win, I get the next shot at you.

Samantha- That's still not fair to me. If I win, I should be able to defend the title against whoever I want to. That's what you two have been doing for years.

Glory- That's not true. Glory has faced all comers.

Samantha- What about Serenity?

Glory- She was my friend, or so I thought.

Christina- Sam is right. Rachel, you've got to agree to fight Sam at the finale, with the World Title on the line if you still have it. If Glory wins it from you, either in the Triple Threat or in the one on one match, you have to fight Sam at the finale, but win or lose, Sam will still get a shot at Glory.

Rachel- ... Fine.

Siena- So, I guess that settles it then. Rachel will defend the World Title against Glory and Samantha in a triple threat match at OPW Chaos. At Armageddon, Glory and Rachel will fight, title or no title in New York City. Then, at the Ultimate Catfighter finale, Rachel will fight Samantha.

Rachel- But if Samantha wins my title, she cannot defend it until the finale when she faces me.

Siena- I don't know about that one. I can't see having Armageddon, our biggest event, and not having the World Title defended.

Samantha- I'm not doing that. If I win, I'm going to defend the title.

Rachel- No. If she loses the title, I may not get another shot at it. I need more incentive.

Siena- How's this for incentive... win and you don't have to worry about it.

The contracts are passed around and signed. Glory smiles, pumps her fist and takes her leave, wishing everyone well, but stops at the door and turns around, sensing some tension. Rachel stands facing Samantha and staring coldly into her eyes as the redhead looks back with a bit of a confused look on her face while Glory smiles and widens her eyes. When Rachel speaks, it's almost a whisper, but everyone can hear her.

Rachel- You got your wish. You have been insulting me and calling me a coward and I've heard all of that before. But I've also been hearing something else, over and over again. Every talk show I go on, every fan I meet... the same question. When is Rachel Apache going to shut Samantha up? I have allowed you this much space and this much of a career. Now, you are on my radar and I am going to get you in the ring... (very, very softly) and I am going to beat the living shit out of your weak ass.

Samantha's eyes widen and she gulps; she looks genuinely intimidated, as Glory's smile get wider and toothier. Glory whispers to Gemma.

Glory- Rachel never curses unless she's really angry.

Rachel- (turning and looking at Glory) And you... you're going to be an appetizer. We will end this feud and I will prove that while you are talented and you are strong, you are not my equal.

Glory- Well baby, you better get your Pepto Bismol ready because Glory doesn't go down easy. Glory out.

Glory leaves and Samantha and Christina start out as well. Gemma can hear Sam and Christina talking as the door takes its time closing.

Samantha- Did I look scared enough?

Christina- Yup. You deserve an Oscar for that.

Samantha- You know what, though? That bitch is intimidating. She has really good breath too. I don't know what kind of toothpaste or mints she uses, but she's like ambrosia... to bad I'm going to fuck all that up.

Christina- You will be ready for her. I'll see to it. (door shuts)

Rachel- I gave up too much... far too much.

Siena- You did just fine, kid.

Rachel- Don't call me that. Don't you ever again call me that.

Siena- Oh yeah, only your husband calls you that, ha ha. How's Angelo anyway?

Rachel- How's Hadrian? Is he still cheating on you with his many women around the world?

Siena- We have an open marriage. But that's the thing we have in common. We both cheat with women, ha ha.

Rachel- You're disgusting.

Siena- I know. That's why you love me. Gemma, let me tell you about my idea.

Rachel- (to Gemma) I'll be outside.

Gemma- Okay.

Siena- Gemma, I've been impressed with your work. I think you have a lot to offer to OPW from the creative standpoint as well as from being a superstar in the company. I know that you've got some things with Tyler going on that you're going to want to resolve. That's fine... but I'm interested in giving you an opportunity to face the biggest name in OPW and have the biggest match of your career.

Gemma- You want me to fight Rachel?

Siena- No.

Gemma- Glory?

Siena- I'd like you to fight me.

Gemma- What?

Siena- You're my kind of fighter. You've got an edginess and good boxing and wrestling. You've got a lot of power moves for a girl your size and you've got a great personality for this business, though your inconsistencies do annoy the hell out of me.

Gemma- Boss, I honestly thought you were retired.

Siena- I haven't had a fight in a few years, but I'm always kicking ass at the gym... and in the bedroom. My name has a lot of value, as you know. You see how much they love me here in my city and in the western US. Everywhere else, they hate me ha ha. So, why not fight me? We could have a great match between us and you'll make a lot of money, whether you beat my ass or I beat yours. But understand something about me, I don't train to lose. I'm gonna seriously fuck you up, ha ha.

Gemma- Well boss... I guess I can't argue with that. I'll fight you.

Siena- Good. Tracy will draw up a contract and I guess you better train hard. I'm gonna get ready to get out of here.

Siena and Gemma shake hands. Gemma goes outside and finds Rachel has kicked one of the heavy bags off its chain and to the floor.

Rachel- What was that about?

Gemma- She wanted to fight me at a future event, so I agreed.

Rachel- Hmmph. Anything for her to get back in the spotlight. You have very little to worry about.

Gemma- Rachel, I'm sorry about the negotiations. I was asked a question and I--

Rachel- Don't be. This is on me and me alone. I came into those negotiations and my objective was to get a match with Glory signed. Nothing more than that. Now, I am tied to three matches. I am to blame for this. I can't believe how much I gave up to them.... What is wrong with me today? ...We better start going over what we'll do in training. Love and Sage will be here soon too.

NEXT: Training with Team Rachel by the wonderful Gemma Rox!

awesome stuff as always! and now I'm fighting the boss of OPW?!?!?! well... who doesn't wanna punch their boss ;)

Love how the world of OPW keeps on spinning! you're a master of yoru craft honey!

x G x

Really! The plots thicken! I see a whole lot of drama ahead!   ;D :) ;)

Awesome chapter, Howard!!!  hugggzzzzzz

xoxo

~L~

Thanks, y'all. Gemma's doing the next part, so I know it will be great.

Rachel Apache's Training session

The moods pretty tense in the gym. The amassed fighters of team apache watch as Glory walks out of the office and goes over to say hello to her best friend, the 5'6" 140 lb boxer, the brown skinned, brown eyed, Nikky Smalls.

Glory- What's up, baby girl?

Nikky- What's going on, big sis?

Glory- Negotiations, like I was telling you last night on Skype. Seems like I'm the only one happy with the way things turned out. Oh well.

Nikky- We've got to do lunch. Hang around.

Glory- I will; that was my intention.

Glory and Nikky hug each other and get into small talk while the other fighters watch, some a bit surprised to see Glory there, and others, able to deal with it better. As soon as the angry looking Rachel comes out, Glory smiles at Nikky, pops her eyebrows up and down while hiding a laugh, and makes her way over to the bleachers. Rachel comes out second and with one monstrous kick launches a heavy bag off its chained bindings and crashing to the floor. Some of the girls look away awkwardly, unsure of where to turn while others like Wildcat and Victoria just chuckle at their trainers' obvious annoyance. Sensing the uncertainty in the air Rachel addresses her fighters

Rachel - Sage and Love will be arriving soon, go to the mats and start warming up

Soon after Samantha and Christina make their way out of the gym then a few minutes later Siena and her aide leave with Gemma wandering over to Rachel a little bemused

Rachel - What was that about?

Gemma - She wanted to fight me at a future event, so I agreed...

Rachel - Hmmph. Anything for her to get back in the spotlight. You have very little to worry about.

Gemma - Rachel, I'm sorry about the negotiations. I was asked a question and I...

Rachel - Don't be. This is on me and me alone. I came into those negotiations and my objective was to get a match with Glory signed. Nothing more than that. Now, I am tied to three matches. I am to blame for this. I can't believe how much I gave up to them.... What is wrong with me today? ...We better start going over what we'll do in training. Love and Sage will be here soon too.

(Gemma - That moment struck me. I've never seen Rachel anything less than perfect, you know what I mean? Now don't get me wrong, I know she doesn't walk on water and despite the persona she wears, I always knew she must make mistakes. But to question herself in front of me? That's a first. Maybe Love was right and I really am part of the family now...)

Gemma - ok... but I am sorry. Wait... I have little to worry about? That almost sounds like you're complementing me!

Rachel - I wasn't

Gemma - thanks boss...

Rachel - Don't call me that.

Gemma - Sure thing Cap'

Rachel's protégé Love and her younger sister Sage walk in soon after leading to Rachel amassing her team of fighters and addressing them all.

Rachel – Listen, I know you normally train in the morning as the other team gets the gym in the evenings but they will not be using the facilities today. I've chosen to take this late session. The reason for this is you are getting stagnant. You're doing the same routines and the same workouts day in and day out. Your bodies are adapting and the workouts are becoming too easy.

Some of the fighters look a little confused at Rachel implying their workouts are too easy

Rachel - You see... your body, your muscles, they have their own memory. Look at it this way, when you first start a new routine, an exercise regime in this case... you start off slow, your body aches afterwards, your muscles tire out easily. But two weeks later? If you do the same routine in and out? It becomes simple. The same moves you did before, you fly through with ease. This is called muscle memory. Your body cheats; it gets stronger and finds the easiest way to complete the tasks you set it. This is detrimental to any professional athlete. If you want to be the best, you need to push yourselves to the limit. That pain in your muscles? Those are tears you've caused in your muscles' re-knitting and renewing, becoming stronger, better, harder. Today? We mix it up. I want a total body shock from you girls. I want you to leave every drop of sweat you have on the mats today and prove to me you want this.

(Victoria - this bitch Rachel was giving us the big drill sergeant routine and I had to pinch myself to stop me from falling asleep. Fuck these idiots! The only energy I'm gonna lose is the energy it takes to give you the finger)

(Lucy Thunder - Rachel was talking a lot of sense today, I never really saw my workouts from that angle before)

(Wildcat - I couldn't believe this shit... Rachel Apache is telling ME how to work out? I'm the biggest girl in this room for a reason damn it! I should have squashed that runt right there)

(Lucky- The lights were on and she wants us to sweat, but I sweat a lot better in the dark...)

Rachel - Now today, we'll be spending a lot of time with you Porsche Green in preparation for the fight against Dana Black, but we will be going around and working with you each individually in time as there is the possibility of having two fights at the next meet. I want all of you ready. Now start doing laps with Love. Green? To the front.

(Porsche - Truth is, I've been looking forward to this moment and dreading it with equal measure... Rachel's a pretty scary woman and I don't think she thinks much of me so far... the fact that she keeps calling me Green is a dead giveaway)

Gemma - ok Porsche, what we've decided to do is try and work in your Pro Wrestling background for this fight. The truth is Dana's good... REAL good. She's a world champion at 140lbs in MMA so that pretty much takes the ground game out of reach for us. When it comes to striking you're a black belt in karate so I'm guessing it's 50/50 but you'll have to be VERY careful when you kick, she'll be looking for that takedown so when you let your leg go you better be sure she's in no shape to react

Porsche - How am I going to do that?

Rachel - If you'd be quiet and listen, Green, you might learn.

Porsche - I... yes. I'm sorry, Ms. Apache.

(Sage - I thought Rachel was being a little harsh there truth be told but hey... it got Porsche's full attention)

Rachel - Professional Wrestling is nothing like the ground wrestling she's used to. You've amassed an... admirable amount of wins with mediocre skills... now it's time to step it up.

Sage - You see... Dana can trade with the best of them, you don't want to square off and trade hands unless you KNOW she's going down and how do you do that? Shock tactics.

Porsche – I do have a black belt in karate.

Rachel- Who doesn't? She also has a black belt in karate and two more disciplines, Green. A black belt does not make a fighter any more than a degree makes a scholar. It is how you achieved it and how you apply it that matters.

Porsche- Yes, Ms. Apache. Okay, shock tactics?

Sage - Exactly! She's used to getting punched, but how about taking a suplex? A power bomb? A drop kick? Can she take a pile driver? As you well know, there's an art to taking those devastating hits and surviving them, the way you flatten your body out in a suplex so the force of the blow is spread out over your entire body instead of focused entirely on your lower back, the way you tuck your head in so a pile driver doesn't blast through your neck and shock your whole spine... things like that. We're hoping she's inexperienced enough to be caught out with these moves

Rachel - And hoping you're good enough to execute them... Green.

Gemma - So today, I get to be your grappling dummy... lucky me! Thankfully, we're using the thick mats so I'll be able to take any slam you want to throw safely enough.

Porsche - I think I understand now, that seems like a strong plan.

Gemma - Don't go resting easy though, it all depends on how fast you can execute. If you hook up a throw or a bomb and you hesitate for just a moment? I'm going to tag you harder than you've ever been tagged, you got me?

Gemma, Rachel and Porsche get to work on the slam mats while Love and Sage walk through and pair up some of the other fighters. While Sage discussed some grappling techniques with Lucy Thunder, Love gets distracted by a scuffle behind her, as she turns she see's the 6'4" 220lb Blonde veteran powerhouse Wildcat lift Laurie Breeze up into a torture rack and bends her viciously across her shoulders

Laurie - AAAGHHHH!! FUCK!!! LEMMIE DOWN!!! AAAGGHHH!!!!

Wildcat - but I thought you could wrestle little girl? You seemed so tough after you got that submission! All I'm doing is teaching you some more moves! hahaha

Love - WILDCAT! Put her down right now...

Wildcat - Or what LoUUUGGGKKKK!!!!

Love slams her right palm forward low into Wildcat's solar plexus and winds her viciously. The bigger girl drops Laurie down and staggers, trying to breath with a shocked look on her face.

Love - you know why you can't breath? Your diaphragm. You see... everyone thinks it's your lungs that make you breathe but that's bull shit. It's that little wall of muscle contracting that makes your lungs work... stun it? And your fucked.

Wildcat - Aaaagkk!!! Uuuggggg!!! I... I can't.... oh shit!!!

Love - now you wouldn't be in this situation if you listened to me. I gave you a whole second to put Laurie down, that's one second more than I normally give...

With another lightning fast strike, Loves left hand flies out low and pounds deep into Wildcats abdomen forcing the older woman to drop down to her knees coughing and spluttering... but behind all her gasps and retches she could at least breath again

Love - I've just popped your diaphragm back to work again. Your welcome.

(Laurie - I got no idea what in the hell Wildcat was playin' at! She just walked up to me and asked if I'd like some wrestling' tips an before I knew what was happenin' she had me all stretched over her shoulders! I swear to god she was bendin' me so hard I thought my back would snap!)

(Wilma - *snort* haha, could you believe it? Laurie in trouble again? She tried to brake my ribs in sparing before I tapped her out but this time... I think she actually was the innocent party in all this. That Wildcat girl is a menace. Plus she doesn't wash enough. Who knows how much bacteria is crawling over that old leathery skin... I read about this one bacteria that eats away your skin and forms welts and pustules... she better not touch me...)

White Tiger/Hitomi approaches Wildcat while the larger woman is getting to her feet. The 6'4" Wildcat towers over the 5'6" Hitomi, but Hitomi bows to her.

Hitomi- I hope you are learning your lessons.

Wildcat- What's it to ya, runt?

Hitomi- I have always dealt with people like you and Victoria in life. I've dealt with your bullying intimidation tactics here in the United States, in China, and in Japan. I have longed to fit in wherever I've gone, but ignorance is everywhere, even here, where honor should be.

Wildcat- Who gives a shit what you think? All you do is play your guitar and sing sad songs at the house. You're a fucking wallflower.

Hitomi- I just want you to know that you disgust me.

Sage meanwhile was ignoring the ruckus and talking to Lucy Thunder

Sage - So how's your training going Lucy? Anything you want to go over?

Lucy - Truth is I feel like I'm in the shape of my life! Like I could tear through any girl put in front of me... I just want to get the call you know what I mean?

Sage - Yeah... I think I know. Look... you got the body for sure, you're a power player in this thing and there's a certain confidence that naturally comes with being the bigger girl in the fight, but I'm worried about your head, honey.

Lucy - What... what's that supposed to mean?

Sage - It's good to be hungry for a fight, but I think you're actually looking for fights...

Sage turns her head and looks across the gym at Gemma for a moment, her face turning concerned and serious

Sage - I've seen what can happen when someone lets go to violence.

Lucy - Look... is this because there's been a few scuffles in the house? I mean... that's just how it is, right? You put 20 fighters who are in competition with each other in one mansion and there's going to be bust ups! There are some girls in that house who will pick a fight with me even when I am keeping to myself. And girls like Laurie, who aren't as experienced fighters, I have their backs.

Sage - You telling me that's it? That you're not looking for trouble? And ask yourself if Laurie has your back. I know we want to build a strong team, but sometimes, you have to keep to yourself.

Lucy - I'm in control. Alright? Ok... sure. I'll admit I have a short fuse and certain people in that house seem to have their heart set on lighting it but I'm dealing with it. My best friend, my tag team partner is in a hospital learning how to walk again and I'm doing this for her. I've always been the strong one; I've always kept my feelings on hold, but it's hard to do that now, knowing what I'm fighting for.

Sage - Ok. If you honestly say you're in control, then that's good enough for me. But make sure you're not kidding yourself, because if the girl you're fighting gets in your head? All the power in the world isn't gonna help you then...

Lucy stares at the floor for a moment, breathing in deeply as she takes in Sages advice

Sage - Now less of this head talk; you think you can rip through girls? Show me on the mats.

Meanwhile, back with Rachel, Gemma & Porsche....

Porsche - AAAAGGGHHHH!! OK! OK!!! GET OFF ME!!!

Gemma has Porsche tied up in an ankle lock on the mats and releases the hold as Porsche starts howling

Rachel - *sigh* You're not getting this at all.

Gemma - Come on Porsche! You knew I was going to charge in low! Where's your counter?

Porsche - I can't see how I could counter that? I've won my matches, but it's kind of hard matching up with you. You're Gemma Rox.

Gemma - You're 5'10" 150lbs and toned like an athlete... use it! Look... come at me like I just did...

Porsche and Gemma get up and circle until Porsche scrambles low and grabs for Gemma's ankles but as she ducks in and leans forward Gemma strikes! Her left hand smashes down on the back of Porsche's neck forcing her to double over even further then in one fluid motion she wraps her arms around the bigger girls waist and hoists her upside down.

Porsche - AAAIIIIIEEEEE!!!

A split second later Gemma throws herself down fast! Slamming Porsche's head into the thick mats in a brutal Piledriver! After the blow, Porsche sits up rubbing her head, although the mats stopped the full force of the blow, she's still going to feel that for a while...

(Glory- One thing I'm noticing about Team Rachel, in particular with Gemma Rox and Love... they are hurting their own fighters. You're not going to win anything if your fighters are constantly being buried by trainers who want to show off and or hurt you to make you learn. I would do it differently. Why did Gemma have to piledrive Porsche? She could've just put her in the position and let her back down; she didn't have to hurt the girl. That's the thing about Gemma I don't like. I respect her and she's a cool chick, but she takes it too far sometimes when it doesn't need to go there. When she fought Beth in the locker room, she was trying to break Beth's neck and slam her on the floor. She goes out of her way to injure her opponents and sparring partners and that's wrong. I've gotten carried away and I will hurt you, but this is training, not a real fight.)

Gemma - You see? Sometimes the best defence is a good offence

Rachel - And nobody is more offensive than Gemma Rox.

Gemma - thanks for that

Rachel - I was, of course, describing your fighting style.

Gemma - suuuure you were..... Anyway... you're so worried about what I'm going to do you give no thought at all to what YOU could be doing! Grappling is 1 part skill and 9 parts will. It's all about imposing yourself onto your opponent and forcing them to fight the way you want to fight! That's what Dana's going to try and do! But imagine if you hit her with that? Sure on the mats you can't really feel much

Porsche - Then why am I seeing three of you...

Gemma – Well, imagine the pain she's going to be in when you drive her onto that cage floor! You'll either knock her the fuck out or she'll be too shocked to dare try and grapple with you again.

Porsche - Right.... RIGHT! I got it now! Ok.. Get up! I think I have a move that could work well!

Rachel - That's more like it Green, come out fighting hard. Don't show any mercy.

Gemma - slow down boss... she's hitting me not Dana...

Rachel - Feel free to aim for the mouth, Green... I'm going to spar with Lucy Thunder for a short while. If I can't hear Gemma scream from over there, then you're not trying hard enough.

(Gemma - Suddenly I feel myself wanting to join Team Samantha....)

The 5'10" black haired Victoria approaches Nikky and White Tiger.

Victoria- Nikky Smalls, huh? Nikky fucking Smalls... the three time, Olympic gold medallist in boxing, the three time world champion in boxing, the first woman to beat Rachel Apache, the second woman to beat Siena Blaze... you ain't shit.

Nikky- Thanks, Victoria.

Victoria steps in closer.

Victoria- We sleep in the same house, Nikky. You want to get raped, bitch? I'll fuck you til you love me.

Nikky- Riiiiiiight. Anyway, I've got to get back to work. Peace.

Victoria- This bitch really thinks she's tough... you don't walk away from me like that.

Kathy approaches as Nikky turns around and faces Victoria. Victoria finds herself facing Nikky, Kathy, and White Tiger.

Kathy- I think you need to mind your manners. We are a team and you came from a team that wasn't really a team because you didn't participate in the activities with the team.

Victoria- What?

Kathy- You're a meanie.

Hitomi- We realize that some of you throw your weight around the house and act as if you can bully others, but some of us 'nice girls' aren't going to stand for it. Master Rachel Apache challenged me to be the White Tiger I call myself. You will learn you place.

Victoria stares at the three women with a very angry look on her face.

Nikky- And anytime you want an autographed picture, I'll be more than happy to sign one for you.

Victoria storms off.

Nikky- I just love a bully, ha ha!

Meanwhile in the cage...

Rachel - You're relying too much on raw power and not thinking out you moves well enough...

Lucy charges forward and Rachel sidesteps, slamming her knee into Lucy's mid section, doubling her over before wrapping her arms around Lucy's waist

Lucy - AAAGGHHHHH!!! Oommpff.....

Lucy cries out as Rachel flips her head over heels in a gut wrench suplex. The 6 foot tall 180lb warrior crashes down heavy on her lower back

Rachel - Why aren't you listening? Your power is a great asset; we know that, but so does your opponent. You need to refrain from charging head long and out think your opponents. You have all the skills to be great in this competition. I know of your professional wrestling abilities as well as your undefeated record in mixed martial arts, but you seem unfocused. Whatever the distraction is, remove it or use it as motivation.

Rachel motions 'come on' with her hands, inviting her student to try again and Lucy is quick to get back up and pressure Rachel, side stepping and advancing but not actually getting any real hits in. Rachel, moves around the cage, her mind wandering slightly as she noticed in the distance Porsche nailing Gemma with a DDT in their practice. Gemma get's up and shakes off the hit before looking back and noticing Rachel's stare.

Lucy - ok... point taken... it was stupid to rush you in the middle of the cage... I should have done THIS!

Lucy flies out suddenly, the distracted Rachel having no answer for her onslaught as the powerful fights slams her chest with a shoulder barge and slams her against the cage wall! She's quick to follow up with a barrage of blows! A hook to the liver, an uppercut rocks Rachel's jaw then...

"Uuuuugggghhnnnn......"

Rachel's eyes widen and she doubles over; her Persian brown skin turns a little pale as Lucy SLAMS a monstrous underarm punch just below her navel, her fist driving hard into the soft layer of fat Rachel has below her solid abs.

"Uugghh... uuhhnnn.... that... that was better... using your footwork to make... the charge count. Good work, Thunder, now work on your ground game with Wilma for a while."

Gemma watched the whole episode with a look of confusion on her face.

(Gemma - I've seen Rachel take shots but I've never seen a reaction like that before)

Rachel exit's the cage and makes her way silently to the office

Gemma - Porsche? I'm gonna take 5, you start knocking the shit out of the heavy bag, ok?

Porsche - Haha! Taken too many hits have you?

Gemma - Well look who's discovered her confident side! Tell you what, after I 'recover' me and you glove up and test your stand up, ok?

(Porsche - I knew I shouldn't have been so confident...)

Sage- I have a better idea. Tiger! You're sparring with Porsche. Gemma, you could use a break.

Gemma- Why'd you break that off, Sage?

Sage- White Tiger is an accomplished pro wrestler and she's got a strong background in martial arts. She's wrestled in front of much, much larger audiences than Porsche has; there's a lot Porsche can learn from her, and they're both dealing with the duality of being biracial. It seems like a perfect match to me.

Gemma- Okay, fine. Did you see what happened with Rachel and Lucy?

Sage- Nope.

Gemma quickly makes her way to the office where she see's Rachel is doubled up gasping for air

Rachel- Damn...

Gemma - Shit... what the hell, Rachel? Are you ok?

Rachel - I... I couldn't breathe.... I'm ok now.... *gasp* I'll be fine...

Gemma - I've never seen you react to a shot like that before...

Rachel - I guess I'm only human after all. I'll be fine.

Gemma - Putting up that wall again?

Rachel - What is that supposed to mean?

Gemma - Look... I've always felt like an outsider but as of late I... I don't know. I guess it feels like we're getting close and then something happens and you close up. You can talk to me you know

Rachel- Well. I never saw it like that Gemma. You have been in my company enough to know that there are things I talk about and things I don't. You are the same way, I am sure. So, you should not question me that way.

Gemma- It's just that sometimes, I wonder if there's a human side to you beneath all the... I don't know.

Rachel- What do you want? A 6'1" 180 lb woman punched me in the stomach. I admit that I got caught with a very hard shot in a very sensitive spot. I left myself open watching you and Green sparring and... I was thinking about something else. Is that human enough for you?

Gemma - About something else? What on your mind?

Rachel- Why is that your concern?

Gemma- Because I care. Can't that be enough?

Rachel- Can't my explanation for what happened be enough?

Gemma- For once, I just would like to see a little more of the Rachel your sister Sage talks about. Just this one time, you can stop being so stoic.

Rachel – Oh, so you would like to play psychiatrist with me? Gemma, there are levels to my personality that would astound you.

Gemma- I'm sure there are, otherwise, I don't think you'd be married... sorry, couldn't help that one. Well, then again, you are a tall, gorgeous woman with long black hair and blue eyes and large... assets, and you're a gazillionaire with houses all over the world and A list celebrity status and--

Rachel- Life. Life is what's on my mind, if you must know. I just turned 32; I'm still in my prime, but I've been a professional fighter since I turned 15 and I'm beginning to understand what my husband told me back when I started, about living and enjoying life instead of being so concerned with accomplishments and accolades. Angelo wants another child, by the way... and so do I. There's pressure bearing down on me from within and without. I am married with a beautiful daughter and a whole host of responsibilities in addition to being the OPW World Champion. My 7th reign as champion, in case you were wondering.
Gemma - haha! How very modest of you to bring that up! And yes, I know... I've seen every fight you've done that's been recorded remember?

Rachel - I love being a wife and a mother and I love both my lives, but I can't do both forever. Skill-wise? I've lost nothing. But... in the past, being and staying the number one fighter in the world was my goal... but now? I am the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. I am the greatest female fighter of all time. And the hunger for more is still there. The hunger to prove myself against this new generation of fighters is still there, but I am not alone in this anymore. I'm a wife; I'm a mother. And I can feel the target on my back. I was once the hungry one and I still am, but how hungry can I be when I lie to myself and say I have something to prove when I know that I do not? I'm trying to pick my spots and balance my career and my personal life but... I'm feeling the pressure now. This triple threat match will be hard. Glory will be harder. Samantha will be harder. Then what? A rematch with Allison Payne? Another up and comer to put down, like Seka or Isis Jones, or Diana Majors? When this tournament is over and I am champion, I will have to fight the winner. You say you've seen all my matches and now, you've seen inside of me... you'll cash in your title shot and come for me as well. That is the nature of the beast whose belly we live in. I don't see a way out and I am confused.

Gemma - Is that what you think? You think I'm here to catch a step on you? To get inside the great Rachel Apache and take you down?

Rachel - You can't take me down. But no... I don't think that's why you're here but you must admit, it is a fringe benefit. Here we are talking after all, tearing down the walls and getting to know the Rachel nobody else sees and you will one day cash in that title shot with me... but no. that's not what earlier was about. I'm just feeling the pressure right now.

Gemma - Come on Rachel... we all feel pressure, especially living in the public eye like this.

Rachel - I see where you're coming from but with all due respect, for me it's different. Being Rachel Apache and living up to the standards I set and the bar I raised... isn't always easy, Gemma. But... it's my legacy... I dare not fail.

Gemma - *sigh* ok... I see where you're coming from. Look...

Rachel - we need to get back to training. Are we done here?

Gemma - sure... sure. We're done. But if ever you want to get anything off your... assets? You can count on me.

Rachel - Noted. Now work on Lucky's game

Gemma - Sure thing boss

Rachel - don't call me that

Gemma - ok skipper

Gemma and Rachel leave the office and as Rachel instructed, Gemma goes over to the 5'5" 135 lbs, long curly dark brown haired Lucky Star

Gemma - ok Lucky how's it going?

Lucky - well I'm sweating just like Rachel said but maybe you could help me sweat a little more?

Gemma - haha! Cute, but how's your game going? Any area's you feel you need work in?

Lucky - You think I need improving? don't you like what you see?

She purrs her answer back in a sultry tone then pirouettes on the spot although... she looked less like a gymnast and more like a pole dancers as she wiggled and flaunted her impressive body for Gemma

Gemma - I... ur... well yeah. Who wouldn't like that?

Gemma blushes back, looking over her shoulder paranoid but she see's that nobody in near enough to hear what's being said

Gemma - you know... it's wholly inappropriate for you to flirt with me like that. I'm your trainer after all.

Lucky frowns a little, her smile fading fast as she folds her arms. Irate at Gemma's rebuttal to her advances

Gemma - and the truth is I've seen a lot of holes in your fighting style. I think you need a lot of work if you want to be a competitor girl. I think we should stay behind and work on some of that

Gemma leans in to the increasingly frustrated looking Lucky and whispers in her ear

Gemma - of course... if we stay behind I'll be off the clock and so I won't be your trainer any more... maybe we can work together and see about filling those..... Holes....

Lucky's eyebrows pop up in shock for a moment before a dirty smile flushes on her face

Gemma - Holes in you fighting style I mean... of course...

Gemma finishes with a wink

Great chapter, * G *!

Gemma ROX!!!  :) ;) ;D :-*

The fighters are gathered and notice that the gym and cage are in a Thanksgiving theme, complete with a turkey dinner.

(Samantha- I decided to give my team a light workout yesterday. Everyone pretty much knows what her role is and as long as I have control of the fights, we're good to go. I see no need to push these girls too hard or break them down mentally. I try to work with them on what they do best, and add other dimensions to it. Porsche is very unpredictable; we learned with Laurie Breeze that it's the unpredictable girls that we have to look out for and that's why I'm sending my most consistent fighter in there. I thought about having Dana take out one of Rachel's better fighters, but after what I saw from Porsche against Victoria, I'm just ready to get a win.)

"She's A Beauty" by The Tubes plays, and out comes "Perfect 10" Porsche Green with Rachel and Gemma flanking her. The 5'10" brown haired, green eyed Porsche is smiling as she makes her way to the ring, dressed in a cut off lycra tank top of emerald green and gold, with matching lycra shorts and gold boots. The biracial Porsche looks like a combination of Jessica Biel and WWE superstar Eve, which I guess would make her a dead ringer for Pilar Montenegro lol.

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fstatic.betazeta.com%2Fwww.ferplei.com%2Fup%2F2010%2F11%2FPilar-Montenegro.jpg&hash=5ad5b1955b42d3de0d9fbfbb34ae9bf73defcbe3)

Porsche enters the cage styling and profiling and fitting her Perfect 10 persona. The truth is; for all Porsche's cocky attitude, she's really about as nice a person as you could meet.

(Porsche- Dana is a really talented fighter; she's got a lot of advantages over me. She's undefeated; she's a great striker and this octagon cage is her world. I'm more used to a wrestling ring, but I'm going to go in there and win. I'm undefeated and I don't want to know what defeat feels like. I trust my coaches and I plan on executing their gameplan and beating Dana Black.)

"Planet Caravan," Pantera's cover of a Black Sabbath classic, plays and out comes Dana "The Girlie Grim Reaper" Black, the recognized best fighter in MMA at 140 lbs. Dana is 5'8" 140 lbs, with shoulder length brown hair that is now dyed black and is wearing silver contacts. She's dressed in a black hoodie cut off, similar to what Gemma Rox wears, and fitting her Grim Reaper persona, she's got the hood pulled up. Underneath is a black tank top, black shorts and she's barefoot with her toenails painted black. Dana looks a lot like MMA fighter turned actress, Gina Carano, but while Carano was good only to get crushed when she met major opposition, Dana has beaten every opponent she's faced with little trouble.

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.desktopexchange.com%2Fgallery%2Falbums%2FGirls_Wallpapers%2FGina_Carano_2.jpg&hash=3ab0bce49529d164e169eb4791383e85a241a59b)

(Dana- Porsche, I love you, baby. You're a cool chick... but I didn't come here to lose. We're friends before and we're friends after, but right now, I'm gonna kick your ass. I'm all business when I get in that cage; Samantha and Katora have trained me for this fight and I'm not going to let them down. Porsche is a sweet girl, but when I look across that cage, I see the enemy.)

Dana gets in the cage and removes the hood to reveal that she's wearing white face paint with black running tear effects, similar to The Crow and similar to the wrestler Sting (who was ripping off The Crow lol). Dana is pacing back and forth, staring at Porsche, who gives a cocky smile before looking at Gemma and Rachel with a concerned expression. The two women come together for instructions and they touch fists.

Gemma- Remember the plan, Porsche. Go in there and use your pro wrestling skills. She's not used to that.

Nikky- Do what you do best, Porsche. Be Perfect 10.

Meanwhile, in Dana's corner...

Samantha- I don't have to tell you how to fight, Dana. The girl has skill, but she isn't you.

The bell rings and Porsche comes out with her hands high and dancing a bit as Dana comes out with her legs bent and fists up and tight. Dana fires a hard leg kick that smacks against Porsche's left knee and Porsche hisses and backs up. Dana catches her with another leg kick and Porsche throws a right hand to Dana's face, but Dana's guard blocks the punch and she slams a hooking right into Porsche's left set of ribs. Porsche instantly grabs her ribs with her left hand and backs away from the shorter brunette before throwing a head kick that Dana blocks with her left hand before throwing a right hand that hit's the point of Porsche's chin and staggers her into the cage.

Sage- Relax, Porsche. Set up your grapples with your strikes. She's not going to hit you with anything you didn't take in sparring.

Porsche throws a jab at Dana, but Dana blocks it again and throws a hook that hits Porsche in the stomach about a half an inch above her navel.

Porsche- Gough!

Dana seems to be walking Porsche down, but Porsche charges forward with a flurry of punches and Dana stands her ground, blocking them and landing a crushing left hook to the taller girl's jaw, a right cross to her left cheek, and hooks Porsche's left arm with her right arm, pushing Porsche back and ramming several hard lefts into the taller girl's stomach. Porsche tries for a side Russian legsweep from this position, but Dana is strong enough to force both woman forward when Porsche falls back, then resumes the punishment to the taller girl's stomach. Dana turns to face Porsche and the auburn haired beauty is able to nail the shorter girl with a knee to her stomach.

Dana- Mmph...

Porsche grabs Dana and attempts a DDT, but Dana pushes her back hard and as Porsche goes back at her, Dana throws a savage overhand right that smashes against the side of Porsche's head and sends her down.

Gemma- Get up!!! Get up!!!!

Porsche gets to her feet quickly, but is clearly on rubbery legs. Dana's overhand right is noted for being the best in the business and Porsche is barely able to block a roudhouse head kick, but can't block the left hook to her stomach that follows as she stumbles back, her eyes and mouth wide open.

Nikky- Come on, Porsche! Heart of a champion, girl!!

Dana comes in quick, but Porsche is able to hook Dana's arms and spin her to where Dana's back is against the cage wall.

Gemma- Yeah, Porsche! Work in there; use your wrestling!

Dana has her arms around the taller girl's waist, but Porsche is able to get her arms around Dana's waist and applies pressure in a bear hug to Dana's back. Porsche has Dana against the cage, but Dana is able to get her arms between Porsche's arms and her body, pry herself free, slip down, grab Porsche's legs, and take her down in one continuous motion. Porsche quickly bucks her body and crosses her legs around Dana's right leg, but Dana is already starting to throw punches down on the taller auburn haired girl's face. Porsche covers up, so Dana places her left hand covering Porsche's nose and mouth and starts tagging the taller girl's left side with hard right hands.

Porsche's groans are beginning to get louder from those body shots and this is right in her corner, so Gemma is yelling at her to fight back. One forearm smash comes down right across Porsche's mouth and she's bleeding. Dana gets a full mount and starts raining down punches in bunches and Porsche is covering up, but taking some heavy shots. Dana is looking at the referee, thinking the fight is going to be stopped, but the ref doesn't stop it, even after Dana lands a right hand that sends Porsche's Perfect 10 mouthpiece flying. Dana easily wraps her arms around Porsche's left arm and neck while wrapping her legs around her waist in a body scissors arm triangle combo. Porsche can't get out of the hold, but will not tap out. Dana applies enough pressure to make Porsche pass out and doesn't even hold on any longer than is necessary. As soon as the fight is over, Dana kneels next to Porsche and starts helping in the effort to wake her up. DANA BLACK ADVANCES TO THE QUARTERFINALS.

Porsche is pretty out of it, and when she finds out she's lost, she's very sad. This is the first loss of her career and Perfect 10 is perfect no more. Porsche fights back the tears, but Dana gives her a hug and thanks her for a good fight. Porsche makes her way back to the locker room and Sage follows.

(Samantha- In case you didn't know it yet... Dana Black is the real deal.)

(Rachel- I expected this. We... tried. I don't... *sigh*... it's hard. Green is a good person and this is a sport where good people lose and it's... hard. Her opponent is a very talented fighter and I wish we had more time to prepare for this but, we didn't. I don't like to lose. I really, really do not like to lose. I don't know what else to say.)

Siena- So, I told both teams that we probably would have two fights tonight... well, I'm not going to delay it anymore. Samantha, your fighter won, so you maintain control over who fights who. You have ten minutes to announce the next fight.

Samantha- I'm not going to waste anybody's time either. We're going to have my girl Dynamite Quinn go up against... (looking at Laurie Breeze and smiling)... Wildcat.

Siena- That's interesting. One of the three shortest girls in the house going up against the tallest, largest, and oldest fighter in the house. I'm looking forward to this one; both teams have 30 minutes to prepare their fighters and then, we meet back here for the second fight.

NEXT: The 5'1" 121 lb Gold Medalist wrestler, born in London, England to two Egyptian parents, The Mighty Dynamite Quinn face the 64" 220 lb 50 year old legendary wrestler who spent time in jail for steroid abuse and is back looking to make it big once again, the wicked Wildcat!

Fantastic MMA school there! playing off two obvious 'good girl' characters can always be a toughie as the reader never truely knows who's side their on but here the action is so high paced and in your face that you don't have time to care! you're buckled into the roller coaster and are enjooying the ride :D

Great work honey!

x G x

"Paint It Black" by The Rolling Stones plays and out comes the 5'1" 121 lb Dynamite Quinn, with her short platinum hair and blue eyes. Samantha and Katora are walking right behind Quinn, who is dressed in a two piece silver outfit with the UK flag on both. Dynamite is a dead ringer for model/celebrity girlfriend Amber Rose and looks pissed off, as usual as she storms to the cage.

(https://s4ck.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fmediamrs.com%2Fmain%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F02%2Famber-rose-.jpg&hash=9004635d039a75e4e0f30a500e6c983c3684fdda)

(Dynamite- I'm not here for any fooking games. I'm gonna fook her up; the bigger she bloody is, the harder she'll fooking fall.)

"Real American" by Rick Derringer plays, and out comes Wildcat. Rachel's face gives away a near confused look as Wildcat is dressed in her red and yellow Hulk Hogan like wrestling gear, along with her Ultimate Warrior red and yellow face paint. She runs down to the cage and climbs in ala the Warrior, then proceeds to do the flexing and posing and putting her hand to her ear ala Hogan. Wildcat stands 6'4" 220 lbs and has long stringy blonde hair and blue eyes. She walks over to where Dynamite is and stairs down 13 inches to Dynamite's face.

Wildcat- Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!! This is what I'm gonna be fighting? I little silvery haired cxnt like you? Mighty Mouse? Haha hahahahaha-- OUGH!!!!

Wildcat doubles forward from a hard kick to her stomach, then Dynamite places the much larger woman's head between her legs, flips her up and powerbombs her hard to the mat.

Dynamite- That's what you get for being so fooking fresh!

Gemma- Holy... shit. Wildcat, get your arse up now!!

Wildcat- Shut up, runt! I know what the fuck I'm doin'!

Dynamite- Then get the fook up then!

Siena calls for the bell to be rung.

Sage- Siena, we didn't even get to give her instructions for the first round.

Siena- She initiated contact, so it's a go.

Wildcat gets to her feet and stalks the much smaller Quinn.

Wildcat- You got lucky that time, Mighty Mouse. This time, I'm gonna take ya, and I'm gonna break ya.

Dynamite- That's what you think.

The two women lock up and Wildcat is easily able to get Quinn in a side headlock.

Wildcat- This is how we do it, Wildcat style, baby yeah!! Feel the power of the pythons, bitch!! I've been training hard, saying my prayers, and eating my vitamins, and all I got to say is whoooooooooooooAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

Dynamite lifts the much larger woman up and falls back, dropping her on the back of her neck, then immediately rolls into a full mount, raining down punch after punch after punch until Wildcat shoves her off.

Dynamite- Why're you backing up, eh? I thought you said you wanted to fight!

Wildcat- I'm gonna rip you in half and have the first half for breakfast and the second half for lunch!

Dynamite- Then come on and do it, ya fooking coward.

Wildcat tries a running clothesline, but Quinn ducks under it, grabs the bigger woman from behind and throws her onto her head in a German Suplex and goes for the mount, but Wildcat puts her feet on the shorter girl's chest and kicks her off.

Wildcat- I'm gonna kick your fucking ass!

Dynamite- I don't think you want to fight me. You keep pushing me away. What's the matter? The big bad lioness is afraid of a wee little mouse?

(Shawna- What is with this little bitch's accent? She's got two parents from Egypt and she was born in London... so why is she talking like she's from Ireland?)

Wildcat angrily charges Quinn, and instead of grappling the shorter girl, she shoves her against the cage and starts hammering her with punches to the sides of her head, but the shorter girl gets her arms up. Dynamite attempts a takedown, but Wildcat slams a knee into her stomach that lifts her up and mashes her against the cage.

Dynamite- OUGH!!! Fook!!!

Wildcat scoops up Quinn and spins, then body slams her down on the mat. Quinn is on the bottom, but locks her arms around Wildcat's right arm and her legs around her left arm and extends them both, causing Wildcat excruciating pain. Dynamite leans in and whispers in the bigger woman's ear.

Wildcat- She's biting me!! This little bitch is biting me!!!

Wildcat slams her head into Quinn's ribs and stomach a couple of times, loosening the crucifix. Quinn swings her legs around to where Wildcat is on top and Quinn brings them around the larger woman's neck, then pulls her head forward with her arms in what I can't spell, but what is pronounced as an ooma-plotta.

(Samantha- One of the things about Dynamite is that she's a powerful wrestler, but for our training, we've given her more options with her jiu jitsu. We know she's got a lot of submissions, and she's got a great deal of boxing ability too. So like I said before, we add another dimension and that's the jiu jitsu with Karma training her. Quinn is a very flexible girl and it helps and she's a great student.)

Wildcat gets her arms under the smaller girl and starts to pick her up, but Quinn's legs are squeezing tightly and the bigger girl taps out.

(Rumor- Wildcat is such a big shit talker, but she got submitted by the shortest girl in the house. What a joke! That's what she gets for picking a fight with Dynamite Quinn.)

(Rachel- I hate losing. She did not listen to the strategies or the methods we developed in training... she... can we stop? I'm not in the mood to discuss this anymore.)

Rachel looks at Gemma, Sage, and Love and the look is not a good one, but it's not a look that implies Rachel is upset with them about what happened. Rachel enters the cage and looks down at Wildcat, who is still nursing her neck.

Rachel- You have two choices. You will either begin to accept the advice we give you and our training methods, or you will continue to be beaten like the old crushed prune casserole that you've been up to this point. I am so disappointed in you and I shouldn't be, because you have been nothing but a pain since you were drafted.

(Gemma- So... I was wrong about Wildcat. But I said Quinn was a really good fighter.)

Dynamite- Fooking well right!!! Ya bloody fooking well right!!! Fook all of you!!! Hey Gemma... remember ya told me to go fook myself? Well, fook you!! Fook you too!!!

Siena- So, Dynamite Quinn has advanced to the quarterfinals and Team Samantha is up 2-0 on Team Rachel. Training will resume tomorrow, as always and Samantha, you have a couple of days to let us know who'll be fighting next.

Samantha- I already know who's fighting next and I'm giving my team tomorrow off. I'm going to have Shawna fight Lucky Star.

(Gemma- I'm thinking that's actually a very favorable match-up for us. Lucky is a really good wrestler and Shawna's only credible victories have been over Joanne, who loses very very badly and can be controlled and dominated. I think we've got this one, especially with Lucky and I about to start our private training sessions.)

(Samantha- Well, it's put up or shut up time for Shawna. I did consider having Quinn fight Lucky or having Dana fight Laurie Breeze, but I think that I can save my big guns for guns who are guns, but not that big of guns. I know that doesn't make much sense, but I think if Shawna fights her fight and doesn't fall for Lucky's bullshit, then we've got another win. Plus, Shawna's got her own mind games, ha ha.)

NEXT: Training resumes!

WOW! I never saw it going that way! awesome job of keeping us on our toes! Question is... will Wildcat carry on being the big windbag she is? or will she listen? and How's Gemma going to make it up to Rachel? Wildcat was Gemma's recomendation after all.....

Since there's going to be a Katora/Misty rematch anyway, I've decided to repost their first fight, which was one of the quarterfinal matches in last year's Ultimate Catfighter, that Gemma Rox ended up winning. Very controversial fight lol.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The girls are gathered in the gym awaiting the first fight of the evening.

"The Cure" Katora Sanchez is from just outside of Havana, Cuba, is 5'3" 135 lbs with long curly black hair, mocha skin, blue eyes, an hourglass figure with large breasts and butt, but a short waist and long thick but strong legs. She's wearing a white gi (martial arts jacket and pants tied with a black belt) and is barefoot. Her toenails are polished blue and she enters the cage looking very focused, as usual.

(Katora- I don't play around when I am fighting or sparring or training or whatever. It's no joke in the cage, you know? Misty is somebody I've wanted to fight for a long time; she tries to act honorable, but she's just another cocky bitch. Samantha's my friend; Misty beat her and talked all kinds of junk, but now, she's got to fight me. We have business between us and I'm gonna have a conversation with her in that cage. I'm not gonna say that she's not a good fighter; she is really good, but I fight for mi familia; I fight for Dios... God, my family, my friends. I fight because I have no choice; the hate is too great in me.)

Misty "The Perfect" Storm is 5'7" 130 lbs with her curly black hair in a ponytail, her blue eyes looking determined, and her own light brown skin shining with a hint of sweat as she is warmed up and ready to go in her black tank top with red trim and matching shorts pulled slightly above her navel and matching black and red boots. Misty is biracial, with her father being half-African American and half Native American and her mother being Mexican. Misty enters the cage, showing off her impressive figure and stares at her shorter opponent.

(Misty- I'm going to hurt her and I'm going to fight her with everything I've got. She asked for this and she's going to get it. Nothing she has said to me or about me has harmed me; it's only motivated me to beat her. She's not good on the ground; she showed that in her fight with Lisa and I have to question her conditioning. I have great respect for her as of fighter, but if I am to win this tournament, I have to beat her. There is nothing more to say; if you want to be the best, you have to fear no one and fight everyone who matters. Katora matters, so I have to fight her. It's nothing to do with personal stuff because that's all in her. This is another fight for me against a very dangerous opponent.)

The two women come together for introductions and instructions. Katora is staring hard at Misty, but Misty in her usual way, is staring at the ceiling. Misty extends her gloved hand to touch with Katora's, but the short Cuban backs to her corner without doing so. Misty backs up as well and looking at her face, one can tell that she's bothered by what Katora did.

(Katora- This is what I'm talking about. She wasn't even respectful enough to look me in the eyes. How am I supposed to touch gloves with someone like that?)

(Misty- At the fight announcement, she hugged me. I thought that all the bullshit was over between us, but I could see then that she was going to act this way. Rachel Apache, when she was in her mid-teens, would stare up at the ceiling during fight intros because she didn't want to have mercy on her opponents if she looked them in the eyes. I picked up that quality when Siena Blaze was training me and told me about it. Katora knows that, but she thinks it's disrespectful... so? I'm not going to stop doing it because of what she thinks.)

The bell rings and two women come together. Misty's bouncing with her arms raised and Katora is proceeding quickly to meet her at center cage, her legs bent and her arms raised with elbows in. These two are both known for being fast starters and the question of who would throw the first punch is answered with Katora firing off a left hook that Misty moves out of the way of before throwing a right hand that catches Katora's gloves, but Misty eats a straight right while landing a left hook to Kat's ribs and backs up, taking a left hook to the jaw and a high kick to the temple that she partially blocks, but is staggered. Misty smiles and grabs at Katora, who bangs hard lefts and rights to the taller girl's ribs, pulls her head down and nails her with a knee to the nose, but Misty pulls her head up as soon as the knee makes contact. Katora fires another vicious left hook to the side of the head as Misty leans in and Misty is clearly stunned and is trying to move to Kat's left, so Kat nails her liver and nails her jaw again with two brutal left hooks.

Athena- Misty, back off of her!! You're moving into her punches!

(Marie- I trained with Misty, and I'd never seen her legitimately hurt until that moment.)

Katora moves in on Misty, but the taller girl stops Kat for a split second with a right hand to her raised gloves. Kat moves in again and Misty's back is close to the cage wall; Misty fires a hard leg kick that smacks against Kat's left thigh, then lands a right hand to the raised gloves and bangs a hard left hook to Kat's right side. Kat angrily responds with an uppercut to Misty's chin, a right hand to her stomach, a left hook to her jaw, a right cross to her jaw and a knee to the solar plexus that forces Misty back. But Misty comes back at Kat with a left hook that gets around the raised arms to the side of her head, a right hand that crashes into Kat's left side and bends her a bit, a sweeping kick to Kat's right side, but Kat backs out of range as Misty misses the second kick. Kat takes a deep breath and the two women stare at each other, getting their air and slowly moving towards each other. As if on instinct, the two start throwing punches again. Katora is first to land a right cross that grazes Misty's chin as she tries to move her head out of the way, but manages to land a right hand to Kat's nose and a hard left hook to Kat's head. Katora smiles and keeps coming forward as Misty misses a left hook to the ribs and eats a hard front kick to her face. The kick backs Misty into the cage and Katora moves in, firing a lightening fast combination to Misty's ribs and forcing the taller girl to cover up.

(Katora- I got a good chin and I got tons of heart. I took her hook and I smiled and I winked. It was a good shot. But you hit me, I'm gonna hit you back.)

Misty raises her right leg to protect her right side from the vicious series of lefts hooks it's taking. Misty is positioning her head above the top of Katora's and has a hold on Kat's right arm. Katora starts hammering Misty's raised leg while Misty is trying to bend that right arm and look for a standing kimora, but she's nowhere close to having one.

(Jessika- The thing that separates Misty from Katora is that Misty has great submissions. Anyone who's trained by Siena Blaze knows how to submit you from a bunch of positions. Misty's a true mixed martial artist, but she really had a bulldog in front of her. Katora can really get inside and hurt you and she can smother taller opponents.)

Misty brings her right leg down on Kat's left foot and Kat yells an "Aye!" Misty lets go of Kat's right arm and hits her with a left hook to her side, then Misty is able to get her get her arms around Katora's waist and spin her around to where Kat's back is against the cage. Katora is landing short punches to Misty's head, making sure not to hit the back of it while Misty is kneeing Kat's thighs and stomping down on her bare feet. Misty ducks low and tries to take Katora down by going for her legs, but the shorter Cuban spreads her legs and shifts her weight and Misty, who is a takedown specialist, can't complete the takedown. Instead, Kat cracks her with a downward elbow across Misty's right eye and upper lip.

Misty- Mmph!

Misty shakes from a hard left hook to her right side, but hits Kat with a digging right hand to the left side of her stomach, about two inches from her navel. Kat's eyes widen a bit from the shot and both fighters look at each other angrily as Katora comes off the cage and nails Misty with a straight left straight right combo to her head, but Misty takes the shots, ducks low and tackles Katora, but Kat throws herself back against the cage and does not go down. Instead, she starts elbowing Misty's shoulders, but winces from a hard shoulder thrust into her solar plexus. Misty seems content to keep Kat's back against the cage, while Kat looks up at the clock. Misty stands up and rams her shoulder and body into Kat's; the shoulder hitting the shorter girl in the face a few times, before Kat starts throwing short punches to Misty's ribs, but takes a hard left hook to her own ribs in return and lets out another "Aye!"

(Kayla- Misty had Kat up against the cage, but Katora was winning the fight, in my opinion, because Misty wasn't able to get a take down yet and was taking more punishment.)

Katora starts to push herself off of the cage and as soon as there's a little space between the two, they start teeing off on each other with punches again. Katora nails the side of Misty's neck with a left hook and thrusts an underhanded punch to her solar plexus, but Misty snaps Kat's head back with two hard uppercuts to her small nose, and when Katora brings her arms up, Misty digs to her body with a right left right left to her sides, but Katora fires a leg kick and Misty winces and backs up. Katora lowers her arms for a moment and smiles at Misty, who immediately fires a right hand that hits Kat's quickly raised gloves, but lands a left hook to Kat's side while Kat nails Misty with an overhand right, buckling the taller girl again and tagging her with a left hook to her jaw. Misty backs up and Katora moves forward.

(PJ- All the years I've known Misty, she's taken more shots in this one round than all her fights combined probably. I've never seen her get hit this much and I've never seen her hurt, but it's not her. Katora is really, really good and it was showing.)

Katora lands a hard leg kick to Misty's left thigh, a two jab combo that hits Misty's chin and gloves, a right uppercut that snaps Misty back, but as Kat moves in, Misty ducks low and nails her in the stomach with a hard right hand that hit's a little below the belt on Katora's gi and probably landed just above Kat's navel.

Katora-Ughh! Aye!

Katora instantly straightens up and raises her arms, so Misty lands a hard straight right that lands between the gloves to Kat's nose and snaps her head back. Kat lets out an "uhhhh!" and goes back a bit, but snaps off a wild left hook that Misty avoids, landing another straight right to Kat's open left side and a hooking left into the middle of Kat's stomach, pushing the knot of the belt into her and bending her. Kat is backing up towards the cage wall and Misty is stalking her. Kat fires off a kick that hits Misty's calf as Misty grits her teeth in pain coming in with a left that hits Kat's stomach, just above the belt and forces another "Aye!" from the shorter Cuban as she bends and gives Misty a pained look. Misty throws two jabs at Kat's head and moves in with a straight right that hits Kat's cheek just as Kat is landing a left hook to Misty's side. Misty stops and touches her side, and Kat explodes on her, cracking her jaw with a left hook and snapping her head back with a right hand to the chin, then landing another left hook to her aching side.

(Misty- She was hitting me... she really was hitting me with some hard crisp punches. I knew this wasn't going to be easy coming in. This was going to be a night of me standing toe-to-toe with her, and that wasn't my strategy. I knew I had to get her on the ground.)

Misty's back is against the cage, but she bucks herself off, grabs Katora by the back of her head in a muay thai clinch, and starts kneeing her ribs and trying to get to her stomach. Most of Misty's knees are into Kat's thighs because Kat is pushing her knees down with her arms, so Misty nails Katora with a combination of right hands to her face while holding the back of her head. Kat nails Misty with a right hand to her stomach and a left hook to her liver.

Misty- uggghhh...uggghhh...

Misty grabs Katora and tries for a guillotine by hooking her head under her arm, but Katora runs and pushes Misty hard against the cage wall. Misty slides to her left and hurts Kat with a knee to her stomach that makes Katora squat with an "whoooosh," but pop right back up, so Misty lands a knee to her raised arms, then a knee to the side of her head and Katora staggers away, but Misty bends, reaches, and fires two punches that hit Katora's crotch. Katora winces immediately and Misty stops fighting, looking at Katora with concern. Katora extends her glove to Misty and nods and the two touch as a sign of sportsmanship.

Misty looks at Katora and raises her eyebrows and Katora nods and raises her arms. Misty hits Katora with a right hand to her stomach, right above the belt, and Katora buckles and backs up. Misty moves in and lands a jab to Kat's stomach to the same spot and Kat lets out an "ooooh, Madre!" and buckles again.



Misty jabs Katora hard in the pit of her stomach, forcing the belt down a bit and Katora makes a sound like she's about to vomit and almost goes down, but backs into the cage. Misty is cautious approaching, but once she sees Katora doesn't come forward, she explodes in on her, getting in low and going with hard hooks to Kat's stomach, and digging right hands while Misty is pulling the belt lower down around Kat's hips and slamming a right hand deep into the pit of the shorter girl's stomach buckling her forward with an "OOH! Oooh..." While she's in low, Misty tries to take Katora down again, but the Cuban once again stuffs the takedown. Misty sighs and Katora sighs as well; the two make eye contact as Katora raises her arms and Misty starts pounding away at her stomach and ribs. Katora winces from the shots to the ribs, but every shot that lands to the stomach forces an "oooh!" or an "aye!" from her.

(Jessika- Katora is very top heavy; she's got a great big set of tits and one of the best asses I've ever seen, but a girl like that has that softness in the stomach and sides and Misty was busting that belly up. She was making me proud because it was the best exhibition of body punching I'd seen since the great Steel Kitten. What happened to The Steel Kitten, you may ask? She retired... and she became me, tee hee!!)

(Katora- So, Misty hit me twice low. They were really hard shots, you know. But I'm a trooper and I took them; I don't think she did it on purpose, so I kept going. But when you get hit there, your coochie sends a message to your brain that you're in pain, then your brain sends the feeling back down, but it gets to your stomach and stops, so there's another message to your brain and that one gets sent back your cooch. So, that's why there's a delayed reaction when somebody gets hit there; your stomach and your crotch are hurting, and mine was. And she kept hitting me in the stomach, you know. She wasn't going to let me off easy and I wasn't getting my air.)

(Misty- Katora's belt is in an interesting spot because it's right across her waist, but it's a thick wide belt, so it's covering a good bit of her soft spots, though most of her soft spots are below her waist because of her shape. So, I was pulling it down to get my shots in. She's got a great defensive stance and she protects herself well, but she's soft underneath her guard and I had to figure out a way to get the turtle to come out of her shell. I didn't mean to hit her low; I was leaning in. The moment I hit her, I felt sorry for her and I waited until she let me know she was okay.)

Misty puts Kat into another muay thai clinch and starts firing knees into her body again, but Katora pushes Misty's chest and comes off the cage, hurting the taller girl with a hard kick to her ribs on her left side. Misty leans in, going for a quick takedown, but Katora rams a hard knee to her nose.

Misty- UNNHHH!!!!

Misty staggers back and shakes as Katora takes a deep breath and comes forward. Kat fires a kick to Misty's right side, but Misty blocks it with her arm; the kick cracks across Misty's forearm and Misty instantly holds her arm and backs up.

Misty- AHHHH!!

Misty is bending over and Katora starts firing punches into Misty's face and starts slamming hooks into her stomach, doubling Misty over even more as it is clear something is wrong with her arm. Misty goes down from the punches, but gets up using only her legs just to take a grazing kick to her face that lands right across her nose. Katora has fire in her eyes as she continues to hammer Misty as the bell rings to end the first round. Misty goes back to her corner and Jessika and Athena want to take a look at the arm.

Misty- It's broken... it's broken. Shit.

Athena- You can't continue with a broken arm, Misty.

Misty- I want to continue. I was in the fight.

Athena- We have to stop this, Ms. Jessika. We can't--

Misty- Shut up, Athena! Don't act like you give a damn about me or anyone else here! I want to finish the fight and I don't think you Jessika, of all people, are going to tell me that I can't.

Meanwhile, over in Katora's corner...

Kayla- Good job, Kat.

Marie- You clearly won that round. She had her moments, but you really had her dead to rights.

Katora- She's really good, but I think I broke her arm; I felt it crack. I'm not sure though; she may be playing opossum. Ohh... she got me with some really good body shots... really good.

Kayla sticks her hands down the front of Katora's gi pants and starts massaging her stomach. Katora starts letting out faster "oh oh oh oh oh"

(Kayla- Katora and I weren't friends back in the Samantha vs. Kayla days. She kicked the crap out of me several times, but it really felt good to stick my hands down her pants and rub her silky belly. In fact, I kinda felt like I had complete control over her, tee hee!)

Marie- Does that make you feel better?

Katora doesn't answer. She stands and pulls off the jacket to her gi and reveals a white tank top and her large breasts in their black bra, which can be seen through the white tank top (because the bra is black... duh!). Misty stands and the bells rings to start the next round.

(Jessika- I sent Misty out there because she's an adult and she can make her own decisions on how hurt she is. Her arm was definitely broken, but she wanted to continue. Every fighter who steps in the ring risks his or her life and that's as much a part of being a fighter as the environment you fight in or the opponent you're facing. She came from Siena's camp, and they're known for continuing to fight, even if they're injured.) 

The two women come together and Misty extends her left glove; Katora extends hers and the two touch and nod. Misty immediately fires a right cross at Katora, who moves under it, slamming a rising left hook to Misty's jaw that staggers her with an "Unnhh!!" Misty starts trying to bounce away from Katora, but Kat keeps the pressure on, slamming hard hooking shots into her ribs and forcing the taller girl to cover up. Katora throws a vicious combination of hooks and rights to Misty's stomach and ribs as Misty tries to cover her face, then cracks her with a left hook right cross combo to the jaw when she lowers her arms before a high kick to the left side of her head drops Misty to the mat. Misty springs back on her feet and tries to circle Katora, hitting her gloves with three quick jabs and getting in a nice leg kick to Kat's right thigh, but Katora explodes on her again, landing a lead uppercut to Misty's chin, but Misty grabs Kat around her arms and shoves her back, then lands a hard right hand to her stomach as she's going back.

Katora- Mmm!! Aye!

Katora walks into a right hand while ducking in on Misty. Though the punch grazes her forehead, Kat manages to bang Misty's right side with a left hook and slam a right cross into her solar plexus, but Misty grabs Katora's head with her left arm and yanks her forward, digging a knee deep into her stomach and forcing a loud "OOH!!" from the shorter girl. Misty secures the muay thai clinch and starts slamming those knees into Kat's stomach and sides, doubling the hourglass of kick ass over and forcing Kat to bring both arms around her stomach, leaving her face open to a series of hard left uppercuts that sting her as she backs up. Misty rams a straight right into Kat's stomach and the shorter girl bends, letting out an "Aye!" and smiling at Misty who shakes her arm and sheds tears from the excruciating pain.

(Misty- The first thing I needed to do with my right was throw it to show her that I wasn't going to lay down for her. It was broken; there was nothing I could do about that. So, I just needed to let her know that I was going to fight her with a broken arm and that I still had all my other parts in working order. When the blood started flowing from my nose, I just dealt with it. She's not abs of steel down there, so I could use my right hand to hurt her middle and take away her legs.)

Katora bends from another right hand shot to her stomach with an "Aye!" as Misty moves in and tags Kat's right cheek with two left hooks then forces the air out of her in an "Ooosh!" with a front kick to her stomach.

(Katora- We could see the other girls yelling and I could see Kayla and Marie shouting instructions, but truth is, I couldn't hear a thing but my breathing and her breathing. We were looking in each other's eyes and I was just trying to get my wind, but she was catching me when I was breathing in. She's an expert striker; I knew that years ago, but I knew if I put together a few good shots, she would be out of there, but the girl is tough, you know. Every time she threw her right hand, she would look hurt, whether it missed or not.)

Katora stands and covers up as Misty moves in and lands a left uppercut to the chin, a right uppercut to the chin, two left hooks to the nose, a right hand to Kat's left side, two hard left hooks to Kat's exposed vertical slit looking navel that buckle Katora and a right cross to her jaw that staggers her close to the cage wall. Misty grabs Kat with the muay thai clinch and starts backing her up with knees to her stomach; one particularly low knee, maybe a decimeter above Kat's pubic mound doubles her over coughing. Misty immediately goes for the takedown, but Katora stuffs it by spinning Misty into the cage and firing a combination of punches to Misty's head that miss or graze her face while Misty digs a hard straight right into Katora's stomach.

Katora- Uggghhh.... guuuuhhhh... hurgghhh...

Katora places her hand across her stomach, looks weakly at Misty and slowly starts backing up. Her mouth is wide open and her hands are low, so Misty snaps her head back with two hard jabs two her nose and a hard kick to her left leg. Misty goes for another right hand to the stomach, but Kat blocks it, moving away from it. Katora and Misty both look gassed and out of breath. It seems to hurt Misty's arm more to throw it and miss than when it actually lands because she's throwing it with so much force. Misty jams another straight right into Katora's belly and the Cuban is backed against the cage. Misty comes in quickly to attempt another takedown, but Kat knees her in the nose and blood sprays and Misty staggers back on wobbly legs. Katora comes forward, winging hooks at Misty's jaw, but Misty ducks low, picks Katora up and tries to slam her, only to have her shorter opponent land on her feet again. Misty is moving Katora all over the cage trying to get her on the ground, but Katora won't go down.

(Kayla- At the pace they were fighting, I knew neither one of them could last the whole three rounds. It was impossible.)

Both fighters are sweating and Katora's groans are getting louder and louder as they both jockey for grappling supremacy. Finally, Misty, who on paper is the superior grappler, slams Katora's back into the cage wall and doubles her over with a knee to the stomach, forcing another sick "OOH!! Aye!!" from her and an "UHHH!" from her as her head is turned from a hard right hand to her fat left cheek. Katora immediately rolls with the punch and comes off the cage while Misty is shaking her right hand, then nails Misty with two hard leg kicks to either thigh, a left hook right cross combo to her chin, a hard left hook to her stomach, forcing Misty's arms down with an "oof!" and a hard double kick to her left side and to her left leg, knocking Misty down. Misty is up immediately as the two fighters stare at each other and work towards cage center, both breathing heavily.

(Spud- My throat was sore yelling to Misty every time she would hit Katora. I ended up losing my voice. I hate Marie and I hate Katora. They both turned their backs on me because Katora wanted off of our team and I wanted Misty to punish her and beat her curvy ass for leaving and joining Marie.)

(Misty- I couldn't hear anything because I really wasn't trying to. It was hard enough blocking out the pain; I was hurting all over and every time I hit her and thought I had her on the verge of being done, she'd surprise me and fight back. But I knew she was running out of gas.)

The fighters both take in deep breaths as they both look at the clock and then, at each other. They come together with Katora moving in and Misty steps in and drives a straight right hand into Katora's stomach, right on the navel.

Katora- Huhhhh... uhhhhh... ahhhh...aye...aye...aye...

Misty's yells out in pain and grabs her arm, but Katora bends, squats, and goes down on her hands and knees from the punch. Misty dives on Katora, but the shorter girl tries to fight Misty off. Misty gets the mount and starts raining punches on Kat's face; when Kat covers up, Misty starts driving elbows deep into her stomach, even yanking Kat's shirt up and battering her abs, which were getting softer and softer with each of the eight shots. Katora wraps her legs around Misty's left leg and tries to secure it, so Misty scoots up and starts looking for an arm triangle by putting her arms around Kat's neck and left arm. Kat and everyone else knows Misty is a great submission artist and has one of the best ground games in the business. Being on the ground with Misty isn't where Katora wants to be, especially after Lisa controlled her on the ground during their fight. Katora bucks and bucks and bucks, grabs Misty by the back of her head and starts elbowing her face and eyes relentlessly. Misty is bleeding badly from two cuts above each of her eyes now and the blood is really running onto Katora's white tank top. Misty pops her leg free and gets the full mount, raining down punches on Katora's face while Katora squirms to get out from under her. Katora ends up rolling onto her stomach and Misty looks for a choke as Katora's body seems to settle, but Katora was only saving her energy for one big buck and the slippery bloody Misty is bucked off of Katora, as both women rise to their feet.

(Jessika- Misty had Katora on the ground... that's where Misty dominated. With a good arm and not so much blood everywhere, Kat would've been choked out.)

(Katora- She definitely had me when she was on top of me. I was hurt and I couldn't get out from under her, but you don't stop fighting until you hear the bell ring and I wasn't gonna submit to her. She was going to have to knock me out, and nobody ever had done that. The knockdown took so much out of me. I could handle her head shots; they hurt, but they didn't slow me down. It was her body shots... I was like "oooh" every time she hit me. And I just said to myself that I gotta hit her back even more.)

They come together again and Katora fires off a quick kick to Misty's left side and Misty backs up, clearly hurting from the shot. Katora jumps in, nailing Misty with a series of six uppercuts, before Misty attempts another takedown, which Katora spins out of and sends the taller girl down on her butt. Misty pops back up and moves towards the shorter girl; Misty winces as she misses a right hand and gets nearly floored with a hard head kick from the hourglass of kick ass. Misty is up against the cage again and bleeding badly as Katora rushes in to finish her off, but the bell rings, ending round 2.

Meanwhile, back in Seka's locker room, the 5'9" 140 lb mocha brown skinned South African with her beautiful body and naturally blue eyes is stretching in her gold bra and gold panties, scratching her smooth silky brown stomach with it's small football shaped innie navel and yawning. She walks barefoot to the grappling dummy, speed bag, and punching model and smiles. Then she jumps as a slap hits her large ass.

Dawn- Hey, sexy girl.

Seka- Get out of here, Dawn. I've got to prepare for my fight.

Dawn looks Seka up and down and licks her lips, flapping her long black hair to one side and narrowing her green eyes. Seka maintains eye contact with Dawn, but notices that the raven haired tan skinned girl isn't wearing anything but her wrestling boots.

Dawn- I figured I'd come and warm you up, sexy girl.

Seka- Stop calling me that and get out. This is the last time I'm going to tell you; I have a fight in about a half an hour and I need to focus on that. Go play with your other whores.

Dawn- So... is that all you thought you were to me? Just another one of my whores? I love you, Seka. I'd--- uurrkk!!

Seka grabs Dawn by her throat and pushes on to where Dawn is bent back onto the medical bed.

Seka- Look bitch, I fucking said leave. I don't want to hear anything from you about that.

Dawn- Go ahead, Seka, choke me out... come on, Seka, show me how brutal you are. Oh yes, Seka, fuck me fuck me Seka, fuck me hard Seka, ohhhhh Seka, nnnngggggghhhhhh!!!

Seka lets Dawn go and takes a step back.

Seka- You're sick, Dawn.

Dawn- And that's why you can't hurt me. Because as much as you don't want to admit it, you've still got feelings for me. And you're a marshmallow.

Seka- What did you call me?

Dawn- Seka, I've known you a looooong time. I've let you fuck me; I've fought with you and against you.

Seka- And you've never won.

Dawn- True, but one thing I noticed about you... you're soft once you really get to know someone. You've got a soft, very sensitive body. It's like every part of it, if touched right, turns you on, huh? How many people know that, Seka? Does Mommy Jessika know? You've also got a soft mind, you're too loyal and you can't hurt the ones you love. And you love me, don't you, Seka?

Seka- I don't have time for this.

Seka turns to the dummy, but Dawn slips behind her, wrapping her legs around Seka's waist and rubbing her stomach. Dawn tries to stick her hand down the front of Seka's panties, but the mocha skinned girl grabs Dawn's wrist and twists it, turning and facing her.

Seka- Do you have a problem?

Dawn- Yeah, I want to fuck you.

Seka- You never will; I wear the dildo; I fuck you. Always have; always will.

Dawn- Well, I think it's time for a change.

Dawn breaks free of Seka's grasp and shoves her near the speed bag. Seka lets out a high pitched "uhhh!" and Dawn presses her hand against Seka's pubic mound, applying pressure and sending her up on her red polished toes with an "EEEEE!" Dawn grabs Seka's wrists and before Seka knows it, she's looking down at the speed bag while her wrists are now tied with the chain that the bag was hanging from.

Seka- Let me go, Dawn!

Dawn has a whip in one hand and a dildo in the other. She runs the whip down Seka's face, around her round, soft left breast with large hard nipple, down the middle of her smooth stomach and circling her navel, and goes around and smacks her ass with it. Dawn whispers in Seka's ear and strokes her soft cheek.

Dawn- How would you like it if I fucked your asshole with your own dildo and you could feel it all the way up to that sensitive nerve behind your navel? I'd make you cum over and over again, taking all the woman out of your young ass, breaking you the way you've broken so many, the way I've broken so many, and making you my prized fuck slave and then, teasing your pussy with my fingertips, getting those little weak moans I hear from you late at night when I pretend that you're in complete control and I move my body a certain way and feel you weaken, dominating you and not letting you know that I am. How would you like that, sexy girl? How would you like it if I took control?

Seka- You've got three seconds.

Dawn- Look at you. You don't know if you want to hit me or kiss me. You can't hurt me, Seka, not anymore. When I met you, we had a fight, and you beat me fair and square. Every time I've tried to fight you, you've beaten me. But it doesn't matter, because I have these little moments like the first time I ever hit you in the belly and saw you double over or the first time I pinned you down or the first time I saw a romance movie with you and watched you cry... or like right now, when I have you tied up and could do so many things to you and you wouldn't be able to stop me. And if we meet in the finals of this tournament, what I'm doing to you now is exactly what you can expect.

Dawn lets Seka down and Seka slaps her lover's face so hard, Dawn hits the floor flat on her back. Dawn gets up and rubs her cheek.

Seka- For the last time... get out.

Dawn- Whatever you say, sexy girl, tee hee!

Back at the cage, Misty and Katora rise as the bell rings for the final round. The two come together and actually touch gloves, but also hug, which surprises everyone. They back up, and explode on each other. Katora lands a hard right hand to Misty's cheek, turning her head and sending sweat and water everywhere, but Misty lands a left hook to the point of Kat's chin. Misty nails the shorter girl with a right hand to her solar plexus, just as Katora hits Misty's nose with a hard left hook. Misty comes forward, looking to take Katora down, but the Cuban kick boxer sprawls, sends elbows down on Misty's shoulder and slamming short right hands into her left cheek, forcing Misty to pull out and back up.

(Misty- I'd never had so much trouble trying to get someone on the ground. And I could stand on fight with her; I was proving that, but I really wanted to take her down and beat on her. That would put an exclamation point on this fight.)

Katora and Misty seem to be pacing themselves a bit, circling and watching each other closely before Katora jumps in with a right cross that misses, but as she turns to throw it, she nails Misty with a kick to her left side. Misty tags her with two jabs to her nose and Katora smiles, then Misty nails her with two more jabs to her nose, a left hook to the side of her head, and throws in a knee to her solar plexus, but Katora blocks it and knocks Misty down with a leg sweep. Katora looks up at the clock and backs up, putting her hands on her hips, breathing heavily and letting Misty stand back up.

(Katora- I had made up my mind that I wasn't getting on the ground with her. I was winning the fight standing up and even if I knocked her down ten more times, I wasn't going to give her the chance to use her ground skills against me.)

(Misty- My nose was gushing blood and I didn't touch it and I had to breathe out of my mouth, so I spit out my mouthpiece while I was down. I knew my nose was broken and I was buying time. My left eye was closing and I was looking at Katora and she was looking at me and I knew this was it. The referee was looking at me and I was just thinking that he better not stop the fight. I just need a little more time, just a little more time.)

Katora and Misty come together and Misty is firing straight punches in a fury at Kat's head; Misty lands about ten hard shots to Kat's arms and the sides of her head, backing the shorter girl against the cage. Misty grabs Kat by the back of her head in a muay thai clinch and starts working her stomach with two solid knees that buckle the shorter girl.

Katora- Aye!! Ooh!!

Misty gets Katora's right arm lowered, jumps and wraps her legs around Kat's arm, right shoulder, and neck, going for a standing armbar, but Katora shifts and slams Misty on her back, then backs away, allowing her to stand up while wiping her curly hair out of her face. Misty looks disappointed that her submission attempt didn't work and comes at Kat again, but Kat gets her with a hard sidekick to her stomach.

Misty- Guuuugggghhhh!!

Misty backs up and doubles forward, as Katora comes forward, but Misty rams her head into Katora's belly, forcing an "OOH!!" from the shorter girl as she jumps. Misty staggers Kat with a rising left uppercut under her chin and Katora raises her arms to protect her face and is forced to lean on Misty, who targets Kat's right side with two hard left hooks, then turns and buckles her with two left hooks to her stomach, forcing a gasp. The third hook lands just below Kat's navel and the hourglass of kick ass tumbles backwards and goes down on her butt with an "ooooh!!"

Misty moves in quickly to mount Katora, but the shorter girl staggers Misty with a kick to her chin as Misty tries to get on top of her. Misty is hurt, but isn't going to let Katora get up and dives on her sideways, trying to spread her arms out in put her in a crucifix. Katora starts kneeing Misty's left side with repeatedly vicious shots.

Misty- Ahhhh!! Ahhhhhh!!!!

(Misty- Broken arm, broken nose, and broken ribs. I was hitting her with cleaner, harder shots and I had knocked her down twice; I just wasn't able to take her down and she was so slippery from my blood and from the water on both of us. It was hard getting a grip on her. If we weren't so wet, I would've submitted her or she would've been choked out. There is no way she could beat me on the ground and that's why she kept letting me up.)

Misty keeps Katora down, but isn't making any real moves, so after about a minute, the referee stands them back up. It takes more time for the referee to put Misty's mouthpiece back in her mouth because the taller girl spit it out again.

(Katora- I knew she was buying time with the mouthpiece stuff. I was hurting, you know. But it's a fight; I'm gonna hurt and I'm gonna bleed, but I'm gonna win. Time was running out because of all these delays and she couldn't do anything with me on the ground. I needed to close the show. I knew her arm was broken and I could see how messed up she was, but I couldn't think about that because if you concentrate on one thing too much, you take your foot off the gas or you leave yourself open to a counter or something else. I had to keep doing what got me in the position I was in.)

Misty's arms are lowered; Katora's arms are still high, but as Katora comes forward, Misty nails her with a straight left to her mouth, knocking her back. Misty steps forward and hurts Kat with two hard right hands to her stomach, buckling her with an "Aye!! Aye!!" Katora doesn't back up and as Misty looks to put on another muay thai clinch, Katora hits her with an uppercut/left hook hybrid punch that slams into her mouth. Instantly Misty backs up and spits out a good amount of blood as Katora looks at her with a disgusted expression. Misty wipes her mouth and it's visible that the punch broke the mouthpiece and a part of it went through the skin just above Misty's upper lip and is showing. Misty still comes forward as we come down to the last seconds of the fight. Misty lands a left hook to Katora's liver, buckling her, but Katora nails Misty with a head kick that is partially blocked by Misty's broken arm. Misty screams a loud "AHHHHHH!!" and bends, grabbing her arm as Katora moves in.

Misty hurts the shorter hourglass girl with a shoulder thrust to her stomach, forcing another "Aye!" from Kat as she folds forward, but Kat fires off several lefts and rights to Misty's face just as time expires. Katora continues to hit Misty after the bell, tagging her with three left hooks, two to the ribs and one to her jaw, but Misty sends a sweeping kick to Katora's stomach, forcing out a loud "OUGH!!" from her and rearing back to throw that damaged right hand, just as security, Marie, Kayla, and Jessika pull them apart.
(Katora- Neither one of us heard the bell.)

(Misty- I couldn't hear anything. There were so many people yelling; the whole fight sounded like a long siren.)

Misty drapes her left arm over Jessika's shoulder and Jessika helps her to her stool, while Katora instantly raises her arms and drops to her knees, saying the Hail Mary as Lisa enters the ring and hugs her. Despite the differences and fights Katora and Kayla have had, Kayla even comes over and hugs Katora.

(Lisa- It was the greatest fight I've ever seen.)

As the judges turn in their scorecards, Misty, who's arm is in a sling, approaches Katora and hugs her, whispering something in her ear. The two exchange a few words in Spanish and then stand on either side of the referee as OPW commentator, the Ryan Seacrest looking Frankie J. enters the cage to read the scores.

Frankie- We go to the scorecards. Judge one has the fight 30-27 Katora.

(Misty- I know Siena said these she wasn't going to give away the identity of the judges for some of these fights, but Judge One was clearly blind. There is no way Katora won all three rounds, especially not the second one.)

Frankie- Judge two has the fight 29-28 Misty.

(Kayla- I said to myself that if Katora loses this fight, I'm going to lose my temper.)

Frankie- And Judge three has the fight 29-28, for your winner, still undefeated and moving on the semi-final round to face the winner of Gemma and Dawn... MISTY "THE PERFECT" STORM!!!!

Lisa- Bullllllllll-SHIT!!!

(Lisa- Misty

Jessika's face gives away a slight smile as she looks at Siena and shrugs her shoulders.

Siena- That's the business.

Katora is shaking her head from side to side as Misty sits on her stool and cries, raising her left arm in victory. Frankie approaches Misty.

Frankie- Wow, Misty, that was truly a remarkable performance, but clearly a controversial decision. Do you feel as though you won the fight?

Misty- Yes I do. I may not look like I won, but I dominated the second round and I knocked her down a couple of times and dominated on the ground. She probably hit me more than I hit her, but my punches were hurting her more.

Frankie- Your arm, nose, and ribs are broken. Do you plan on fighting in the next round?

Misty- If it's up to me, I will fight. But I have to be realistic... Frankie, I'm not in any condition to even think about that right now. I came to win this tournament and I gave this fight everything I had, and I won. But if I can't continue, then I'm going to be very upset because I don't want my time in this tournament to end like this.

(Kayla- If Misty can't participate in the Semi-finals, then Katora should take her place because Katora really won the fight and it's not fair to her if someone else got that spot.)

(Jessika- I had my doubts about Misty being able to finish the fight, but she did it. As far as the semi-finals, Misty is on my team, so a fighter from my team should take her place. That makes perfect sense, but knowing that girl, she would probably come off her death bed for a fight. She really showed us all something about her.)

Frankie- There's been a lot of back and forth between you and Katora leading up to this fight; the fight itself was back and forth, but you two showed a lot of good sportsmanship during the fight. Have you buried the hatchet?

Misty- We're fighters and she doesn't have to like me and I don't have to like her, but we respect each other as fighters. She said we would have a conversation in the cage and we had one that neither of us will soon forget. But I did beat her with a broken arm and that has to mean something to me because we did have a lot of problems between us. I'm really hurting, Frankie; I have to go get some ice on me.

Katora approaches Frankie and Misty and Misty looks at Kat. Misty is clearly in tears and she puts her left hand on Kat's fat right cheek.

Misty- Look... I just want the bullshit to be over. I don't want to go on talking shit with you and you know I have always respected you as a fighter and as a person.

Katora- (hugging Misty) I'm not going to think about the stuff with us right now, Misty. It's too soon to reflect on that. It was a good fight; go get yourself looked at.

Misty leaves and Frankie turns to Katora.

Frankie- Well Katora, how are you feeling about the judge's decision?

Katora- I know I won. You know, I just... I don't know, man.

Frankie- Did you feel like you dominated the fight, or did you feel it was close going into the third round?

Katora- Uhm, you know, I was kicking her ass the whole time. She couldn't get me on the ground; she couldn't outstrike me; she kept spitting her mouthpiece out, so I knocked to where it wouldn't come back out. Near the end of every round, I had her out on her feet, a few more punches and she's done, but the bell would ring... I won, man. Anyone who goes back and watches this again will see that. I think what happened was when she broke her arm and kept fighting, the judges were giving her extra credit for continuing. They stopped watching the fight, and they starting watching Misty.

Frankie- I can tell you're very upset. She may not be able to continue in the tournament; if you could, would you take her place?

Katora- I won the fight, so I should be in the semi-finals anyway. I don't know, man. This is a real letdown for me, but I'll just go back to the drawing board and see what happens. I think with the finale, I wouldn't mind fighting her again. And this time, I won't leave it up to the judges; I will knock her out.

Katora leaves and the cage is cleared as we prepare for the next fight.

Poor Dawn. :'(

Another great chapter, Howard!  This series is still the benchmark of the genre.

:D

Yup, those were the days. Nice to know a fight from more than a year ago can still get a reaction. Thanks, Joni. And why feel sorry for Dawn? She did scribble that marker writing on you, remember? ;)

Tidbits...

With the Battle Royal and Triple Threat match for the OPW World Title just mere days away, to be held in Miami, Florida, there's been plenty of multitasking going on as OPW prepares for the huge event and continues Ultimate Catfighter, while preparing for another big event, and Armageddon at the end of the year.

Rachel Pranks Samantha and Glory

Apparently, Rachel Apache's camp let some footage of Rachel "training" leak in emails sent to Samantha, Glory, Allison Payne, and the OPW website over the Thanksgiving holidays, perhaps in response to Glory's popular workout videos that have been released in the past. The footage wasn't of Rachel preparing for a fight, but of Rachel in the studio singing tracks from her upcoming album, which has been described as "Billie Holiday meets Amy Grant meets Sade meets Barbara Streisand." While Glory said that she laughed at the video and thought it was "cool," Samantha wasn't impressed. "This bitch wants to play with people with her dumb ass. The video starts with her talking about determination and being the best, and then, she's in a studio singing a dumb ass Christopher Cross song? Is this a fucking joke?" This reporter must wonder, with Glory being a bassist in the band Steel Windows, and Samantha having a pretty successful singing career of her own, will the triple threat match suddenly turn into an episode of "Glee" with fighting?

Gemma Rox To Go One on One with Kimberly Chaucer

It was announced that Gemma Rox has agreed to sit down and be interviewed by Kimberly Chaucer. One has to wonder if this interview will turn ugly, as Kimberly does not hold back in her interviews and this is Gemma Rox we're talking about here. Kimberly has stated that she will ask Gemma about everything, including Tyler The Silver Fox and she may have a surprise guest or two for Gemma. Stay tuned...

Kayla vs. Athena in Greece

Ultimate Catfighter runner-up Athena will go one on one with former OPW World Champion and former coach on Ultimate Catfighter, the ever popular Kayla Rankin in Athena's hometown of Athens, Greece.

Samantha Looking Forward, Not Backward

In the same interview in which she badmouths Rachel's prank and praised several of the members of her team for their amazing stamina and work ethic, Samantha was asked if she has any regrets, having not faced Jenn Peccavi or Stacey Simmons. Samantha said, "The only reason why anyone even knows who Jenn Peccavi is, is because she fights girls who she knows she can beat. Every time she stepped up and fought someone with a pulse, she lost. She said she didn't want to fight me after I beat Kayla and that was after she promised me a fight for years. She's the most overrated fighter in the world and she's not relevant to me. She made that crack about needing a scorecard, but we would need a scorecard to keep up with the no names she's beaten.

Stacey? Who's that? Another fight I was promised that fell through because of some stupid reason. They didn't fight me because they knew I would win and their handlers didn't want them to lose to me. Well, nobody knows who Stacey Simmons is now, huh? So, just like with the little blonde, the only time I care is when you guys bring it up. Right now, my focus is on training these girls and on this triple threat match for the World Title in my home town, Miami. I want to be a two-time OPW World Champion and to fight the best out there. That means beating Rachel Apache, facing Seka, Shinobi, Glory, Diana Majors, Lady Jasmine... they are all on my list. I want to show the fake fighters of the world how a real fighter does it."

Is Gemma Rox Getting Lucky?

Rumors of the private training sessions between Gemma Rox and Ultimate Catfighter Team Rachel participant Lucky Star are that the two are spending less time training and more time having sex. Several Team Rachel members complained that the gym had a rather unique smell to it when they arrived the next morning and Gemma Rox was said to be beat red when the topic was brought up to her. "It smelled like two pussies fucking," said Wildcat, "I'm 50 years old and I know that smell. They're using the gym as a whorehouse and nobody told me." Rachel Apache was said to be furious with Siena Blaze that the gym smelled the way it did, especially the locker room. Siena did release this comment, "Rachel Apache must not be getting any at home. I guess her child was an immaculate conception. Bitch." One has to wonder what Team Rachel member Laurie Breeze, who asked for more one on one training with Gemma, thinks of Lucky's alleged new starring role in Gemma's life. I guess we'll see how well the training goes as Lucky Star is set to face Shawna in the round of 16.

Beth B. Is on the Rise

The 4'11" 94 lb blonde haired blue eyed Beth B. is really going on a winning streak in OPW, thanks to her push and has a very large fan following. With Supergirl Kara, Shinobi, Seka, Diana Majors, Gemma Rox, Jonica, Marissa The Fighting Honor Student Simmons, and Beth, just to name a few, OPW may have the deepest "rookie" class in their history, though most of those girls have been fighting for quite some time. Beth is the twin sister of a former two-time OPW World Champion and former Television Champion, which Beth has held, and Beth is determined to show OPW that she belongs.

OPW owner Siena Blaze, made this comment about Beth, "We wanted to capitalize on her look and her back story. The girl fought in Mexico with a mask on, but she was also an agent for the US and has survived a torture camp. She's a hero in a lot of ways, but she's fucked up in a lot of ways too. The other girl, her sister, she didn't make a full commitment to being the best she could be. She liked to lose too much and it cost her. Beth wants to win." Many do wonder though, with Beth's attacks on Gemma Rox and Gemma confirmed to return to full time action, will the two make peace or will the feud continue...

New Hall of Fame Inductees

The Female Fighting Hall of Fame will be having it's induction ceremony soon in Chicago. The new inductees include Too Sexxxy, Alicia Christmas, General Cutter, Your Majesty Sophia Jackson, and the late Charlie Champion, as of right now. The card is still being considered, but the theme is "The Enemy of My Enemy" as two enemies of a given fighter will face each other. Expect Rachel Apache to defend the OPW World Title against Gemma Rox, and for Samantha to defend the OPW Television Title against Beth B. One match that will definitely be on the card is Allison Payne vs. Lady Jasmine. Alicia Christmas will also face Diana Majors in a special match with a great deal of symbolism to anyone who read "Dina Majors' Story" and knows about the history between Diana's mother Dina and Alicia Christmas. Glory will face the 2011 Queen of the Ring and the woman who injured her, Seka. The rest of the card is still to be determined.

The List of Participants in the Battle Royal is released

The over the top battle royal, which will determine who will go on to challenge the OPW World Champion at OPW Armageddon has been released. Here are the participants, but the order will be picked at RANDOM. Who will face the winner of the Rachel-Samantha-Glory triple threat match for the OPW World Title...

awesome stuff!

x G x

Why feel sorry for Dawn?  Look at her!  Everyone should feel sorry for her!  ;D

Battle Royal, huh?  I probably won't last long, but if I can eliminate that midget Beth B, it will be worth the effort.  >:(

Can't wait for more, Howard!

:D

Wow, me against Athena in Athens! I'm getting butterflies - it's been a while since I've been in the ring, but looking fwd to it eagerly!  :D ;)

P.S. Jonica, you're welcome to kicking Dawn's butt!  ;)

Thanks for the love, guys! I could really use it. Hugs!

Changes to the Tribute Show Line-Up

After much debate and deliberation, Siena Blaze announced today that there will be some changes to the line-up for the Female Fighting Hall of Fame show in Chicago, Illinois. Siena seemed a bit irritated when she made the announcement...

"Fuck it. We decided that we're going to put Marie B. in the Female Fighting Hall of Fame. And people are going to ask about her in-ring accomplishments and how they may be questionable and all that other shit and how she's acted towards OPW as of late, but history doesn't erase itself. Some people will say that's a huge gesture from us; some people will say we're beating a dead horse. I say we do whatever the fuck we want to do. The girl was a huge creative force behind the product for a few years, so we can only honor her, as many times as we've done it in the past and gotten no reaction from, with the highest honor. Some of the people in our crew were against this; things ended on bitter terms and there's this Cold War thing going on with us and her, but fuck it. The show will sell out and she's going in. Whether she chooses to acknowledge that is up to her. I don't give a shit one way or another, but she will have one more match on that card. She's going to face Gemma Rox, who is the most appropriate opponent for several obvious reasons to both of them, and with Samantha having feuded with both of them, it fits into our "Enemy of My Enemy" theme. I know they're gonna beat the living shit out of each other. It's not about trying to get her to respond; it's about doing what's right and that's the right thing to do. We put it to rest some time ago, but since we're expecting to move on in a serious way and a new direction very soon, loose ends from the past have to be tied up.

Some of you are probably wondering what that does for the World Title Match between Rachel and Gemma. Well, and I know Rachel isn't gonna be happy about this, but Gemma is out of that match and Rachel's youngest sister, the 2008 Queen of the Ring, Sage is in. So, Rachel will defend the OPW World Title against Sage. I have another announcement, Samantha won't be defending the Television Title against Beth. Samantha's going to be facing her bestie, Justine Credible... in a Ladder Match for her Television Title. Beth B., my rising star... I have something special for her. The last time we did a Hall of Fame show, Jessika fought Jasmine in a No Holds Barred match that ended up being one of the greatest matches in our history. This time, Beth B. will face the 2010 Queen of the Ring Jolene Rictor... in a Barbed Wire Match. I want Beth to get a taste of what is to come if she's going to keep rising in the ranks... and this is the best way to do it. This is going to be a super card."

Rachel Done In 2012?

Rachel Apache has stated that she may be retiring in 2012. Rachel is said to have her husband Angelo looking at possible opponents for Rachel to face so that she can secure her legacy as the greatest female fighter of all time. With matches against Glory and Samantha already signed and secured, rumors are abound that Rachel wants to face Serenity, Gemma Rox, Diana Majors, Shinobi, and even have a rematch with Allison Payne. Said Rachel in an interview prior to Siena's announcement...

"When I finally walk away from the sport as a fighter, when I retire and stop being the best there is, I want to leave no doubt that I am the best there was and the best there ever will be. To do that, I must face the best available opposition."

Rachel is already considered by many to be the greatest female fighter of all time, but she realizes that even at 32, which is still relatively young, she has been competing in OPW for 17 years and wants to expand her family while concentrating on other pursuits. Rachel has an album coming out and also has bought a portion of OPW and will promote an upcoming fight card that with have the rematch between Misty "The Perfect" Storm and "The Cure" Katora Sanchez as the main event and will also feature Michelle Angel, an extremely talented fighter, taking on Ultimate Catfighter blonde bombshell "Bionic" Karin Cunningham.

"The sport of fighting will always be with me, though I will not be fighting forever. I want to continue to give exposure to new and upcoming talent. Misty and Katora are already well established in the fighting world, and their rematch is a suitable main event. We've got several excellent match-ups to go along with it and I may consider drawing from my team on the reality show to get in some work as professional fighters."

When asked about the upcoming Ultimate Catfighter Round of 16 match between Team Samantha's Shawna and Team Rachel's Lucky Star, as well as Gemma Rox's alleged sexual relationship with Lucky, Rachel said...

"I'm not going to get into the rumors. I do not find them appropriate and I won't address anything of the sort. As far as 'Lucky's' training, that is something to be asked of Gemma Rox. She has taken primary responsibility for... (sarcasm) Lucky. I haven't spoken to Gemma in a few days. I've been preparing for the Triple Threat Match and spending time with my family. I am sure Lucky is in good hands."

When asked about the Triple Threat Match, Rachel responded...

"It is a difficult situation to be in because I do not have to be beaten, pinned, or submitted to lose my title. I hate that, but it only means that I must beat Glory and Samantha senseless and retain my World Title. As for the Battle Royal winner getting a shot at Armageddon, I have been the winner and I have been the defending champion. I have never lost at Armageddon and I do not expect to lose there this time either. I will win the Triple Threat Match, go into New York as the OPW World Champion and retain my title against the Battle Royal winner."

Meanwhile, we did ask Siena Blaze about the Battle Royal order...

"We drew the names randomly and I've seen them. It's going to be interesting to see who comes out on top. I will say this though... expect the unexpected. You saw that list... that doesn't mean that just those people are in it, ha ha ha."

Expect the unexpected? What could possibly be next??? Oh yeah... Ultimate Catfighter continues!!

Great teaser there. Rachel vs Sage should be a challenging write and a wonderful read and Gemma Rox vs Marie B? I'm gonna honour her with a trip to the hospital :D

x G x

thanks, Gemma. It's all going to be challenging. So much to do in such a short amount of time...

Soldier Field, Chicago, Illinois...

On Marie B. ... a video montage is shown...

Siena Blaze- She was yelling at me because I lost to Allison Payne, and I was like, "Who is this little blonde Sarah Michelle Jennifer Love looking thing yelling at me...

Rachel Apache- She was standing at my front door, saying that she wanted to spar with me. My first impression was that she was short and that I would break her in half with my stare alone. The rest was, as they say, history.

Glory- I was the OPW World Champion and she didn't want any part of me, but I was a bit more... umm, angry back then... haha, and I, I kinda felt like she playing in a woman's world and I threw her over that barricade during my match with Jessika and the little girl ended up walking out of the arena with my World Title belt... hahaha. I still laugh when I think about that to this day. I wrestled her and she never beat me, but she body slammed me. That little 4' nothing girl body slammed me.

Jolene Rictor- We feuded and she was always my favorite wrestler. I had this sort of crush on her, this mean crush. I wanted to beat her so bad. From the creative pov, she had me coming out in a white leotard. Everybody knows I don't wear that, but she always had me in one. But every time I wore it, I won. It's kind of become my lucky outfit haha.

Candace Spud- I'll never forget my Marie!!!

Allison Payne- I honestly thought this girl was out of her mind calling me out for a fight after she lost to Glory and Kayla and was getting beaten up by actresses and no name fighters outside of the ring. I respected her as a fighter and from the creative side of things, but I always felt like her mouth got her into way more trouble than she could handle.

Lady Jasmine- I always found her to be very polite. She hit me in the head with a chair once... I went and had a talk with her about it and she understood. She was also offered the chance to face me and she said that I would beat her easily, so there was no reason for us to fight.

Samantha- I can honestly say that she did more for me than any creative mind I had the pleasure of being used by except one, and he's obvious. Marie featured me in 9 matches and she helped build me up so much. Our feud was real; it went beyond just matches and stories and you know, a lot of people blame me as the villain in all that. She knows her role in it too. But I won't deny what she did for me and if she really was pressed, she knows how much she benefited from our matches and from her time in OPW. I like to be honest, so I can honestly say that there wouldn't be a Queen Samantha without Marie B.; does it mean that I like the girl? No.

FCFs member howardcosell- I'll never forget how she was there for me when my cousin, best friend, and creator of many of the characters I use died. She helped me get through it and no matter how things are now with us, we're not friends; we don't communicate... whoever is her friend is benefiting. We could've been nicer to each other; we could've spent more time laughing and less time arguing about dumb stuff. But that's how it is sometimes and you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. But I wish her all the best in all that she does and I'm delighted to give her this honor before I move on and everything else moves on with me. So, she may never read this and she may never respond to it, but from the bottom of my heart to her, and for the last time, "Thank YOU."

The 5'5" 140 lb owner of OPW, with her short curly blonde hair and blue eyes, Siena Blaze, walks up to the podium.

Siena- Marie B. ... what can you say about her? She was a mediocre fighter. She won two OPW World Titles and an OPW Television Title and she didn't actually pin or submit the champion in any of those matches to win those belts. In a lot of ways, she burned this company and she turned her back on me personally, and on the fans. But... one thing I give her... she was upfront. If Marie couldn't do something for me or OPW, she told me. If she didn't like something, I didn't have to fish for answers; she told me. When it came to creativity and completely the work she did with OPW, she told me that there are 24 hours in a day and that she would always have time. She just changed her mind a lot and had a hard time sticking with one position in a conflict. Like Echo. You make an amazing character with so much talent, appeal and potential, and as soon as she's getting hot, you run her off. I couldn't understand that, but that was a part of who Marie was. Marie suffered an injury to her back and she still came back and performed for us. She inspired so many small girls to compete and be the best they could be, even when she wasn't. She was a dear friend; she was a backstabbing friend... she was like a daughter to me. She was like my daughter Brandy in her excellence, like my daughter Helena in her bluntness, like my daughter PJ in her sense of humor... and like my daughter Christina in that Marie hated me sometimes, and we fought on four separate occasions and only two of them were in the ring. We hurt her feelings, made her cry, made her laugh. We got to know the real Marie and we know what the B stands for too. She was with us during some of our darkest times and helped give us some of our brightest moments.

(Crowd Chants "MARIE B")

Siena- She always accused us of holding grudges, but she's the one who isn't speaking to us after a few years have gone by. But when she was here and working, she was amazing. Her mind was brilliant and she did a lot of things that pissed me off back than, and I laugh at them now. She helped build the superstars who are filling the void that she's left and while we don't hear from her anymore, I know she peeps in from time to time. So, I can go on and on about her, but let's go ahead and put her in. I, Siena O. Blaze, induct the Lucky Loser, the Tiny Dancer, The Gymnast Jimminy Cricket, Superfly Marie B. or Marie_B. into the Female Fighting Hall of Fame for her creative contributions to OPW and to female fighting in general. Usually, when people get in, they give a speech, but if I know anything about Marie B. the writer, she's not going to express any sort of emotion other than humor, and she probably isn't even going to react to this at all because it's us doing it. In any event, Marie the fighter is here tonight and will be competing next against an opponent who has no problem showing her emotions.

Thank you, Jo. I'm trying to keep as much of this stuff condensed as I can. I don't want a ton of threads on the same issue flooding the board, out of respect for the other authors here. So, I'm keeping much of it in here.

As always, thank you for your support.

Hhmm, Marie B vs Gemma - now that's a hottie to look fwd to!  ;D :P :D ;)

Hugs
Kayla

and we hope to make it memorable too, Kayla!
