L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

This was the day. It had came faster then the fans, the other wrestlers and the Superstars themselves had thought and still here they were. The Main Event on the LAW PPV. Two years ago Harmonia Edelstein had been a small light, a talented young girl but with the burden of having a former career as a model. No one had taken her seriously when the blonde celebrity from the Alps had tried to get into the business. She was booked as skimpy, sexy Catfight Bimbo against all kinds of other newbies or Young Lionesses. No one had taken her seriously and some of the bigger names she tried to have a match against simply denied her. So Harmonia had to wait, frustrating the ambitious young woman who wanted nothing more then to prove herself, showing of her true colours.

But help came in the most unexpected places as after a match against Toni Ashford, the daughter of the legendary Dana Ashford had been asked by Harmonia where she could become stronger. And Toni had heard her plea and sent her to her mother. There Harmonia had become the personal student of Dana, living in the dorms of Shadow Fortress, having her body bent and stretched in every direction, always on the verge of breaking. But Harmonia never gave up and soon she became the Top Student of her class. She broke all records and was only surpassed by her sensei. Harmonia did'nt just graduated from Shadow Fortress she became it, she got stronger, faster and more determined then ever.

And finally all her work paid of as she beat her longtime friend and rival Amirah Prince at last years FIGHT THE LAW clean. From there it was an upstart for the Austrian that no one could have forseen. And something else changed in her life when Harmonia Edelstein met Molly Forster. After an exciting date and a dramatic christmas party the two europeans finally were sure about their feelings for each other and became a couple. From then on Molly became Harmonias Manager and when the Austrian had her big Gimmick Change, becoming " The Superstar" she suggested to Molly to build a team together, leading to the formation of "The Superstars". After Harmonia had built up Molly from a talented but naive midcarder with a not so stellar record to something that had always been in her.

Molly too had gotten the Shadow Fortress Treatment and when they debuted at their first match, both women appeared stronger, matured and uncomparable to what they had been. Their love dor each other and their dedication for the sport had led them right to the top and now they aimed for gold. This was the biggest match in both the two lovers career so far. They had trained their bodies into shape, had spent preparing and now they stood there, waiting for their cue, waiting to get on their big stage, to the crowd that wore their colours, their glasses, hats, hairbands...
Harmonia was proud and when they both reached the entrance to the deck of the ship were the ring was prepared, Harmonia turned to Molly. "Thank you Molly. Without you I would'nt be standing here now.", she began and put both her hands on her girlfriends shoulders. "You showed me my real worth, what I really am capable off. And you always believed in me in good and bad days.",she smiled, putting up her glasses to her head so Molly could see her eyes. They were filled with tears but also with pride as she pulled Molly closer to embrace her, their bodies, like two pieces of a puzzle, connecting.

" All I want from you today Molly is to do your best. And whatever happens it will be ok. If we win then we have to work hard and if we lose, well then we get another chance and will worker even harder. Be as it be this here Molly will put our name on map for good. Jjst promise me not to overdo it, know your limits but still do your best. And remember, I am always behind you. I will always protect you what ever it will cost." Harmonia said and softly pulled away, both looking at each other again. The last year had shown Harmonia the truely important things in life. Family, friends, love. What was a victory if you have to share it alone. If people you love get hurt. No. Harmonia and Molly would give the Cats the fight of their life but if they prove better then they would take no risk. "Whenever it seems dire, whenever we are in pain, tired, on the last rope... Remember, we are here to look out for each other, because we are a family, because you are my friend, because...", she kissed her forehead. "... because I love you my Superstar."

And with that their theme began to play and Harmonia turned to Mollys side, taking her hand in hers.

"Let's make this fucking evening ours!", she said when they both went out as the red and white fireworks went off and they stood before the biggest crowd they ever had. Wherever Harmonia looked there was white and red next to Cat Masks. The warmth of the evening, the cool seabreeze and the evening sky made it even more special as the two Blondes greetes their fans excitedly. They stopped for selfies, shook hands, hugged, kissed cheeks, leaving some lucky people with the expensive red lipstick Harmonia had bought just for this evening. And when she turned to Molly she had to blush a little as her lips could be seen prominently on Mollys forehead.
Harmonia stopped and held Molly to wipe it off with her glove before she took it off and threw it into the crowd.
Then they descended to the ring, loud, strong and proud as they jumped the ropes right to the refrain of their song.

IT'S THE SAME OLD DESIRE, NOTHING HAS CHANGED, NOTHINGS THE SAME, BURNING LIKE FIRE, DON'T YOU EVER TAKE MY NAME IN VAIN, OH YEAH!

Harmonia and Molly pumped their fista in the air as all four turnbuckles started to spray red and white fireworks, while their song told a story of never giving up and reaching out for what you wanted. Nothing could be more fitting. This evening here was pure, perfection and when Moni turned to Molly she gave her a thumbs up, a big grin on her face. They were together. Everything would work out...

Spoiler

Molly Forster, too, had come from a place of humble beginnings and gone on to achieve greatness. To think, just a few years ago, her biggest claim to fame was her career as a professional cosplayer, who considered a few likes on her photoshoots and a couple of photos with celebrities at cons to be the peak of her accomplishments. But no one could have expected the rise to the top that she had seen. It had all started when her sister had taken to a new life in professional wrestling, and Molly, excited by the prospect, couldn't help but beg her way into letting her train her and to become her tag team partner. They'd had a modestly successful career on the British indies, but when they came to LAW, they found they just weren't up to the standards of the competition. Even when they saw the biggest moment in their team run when they took on the Carnival Girls at We Are LAW, they had still fallen short, with a loss in what was a long string of losses for them - and one that they'd struggled to bounce back from.

But as it turned out, all Molly had needed was a little bit of help from a place she could never have seen coming. When the British Bunnies had taken on the Edelstein sisters in a Capture the Flag match, no one could have expected it to become such a pivotal piece of LAW history. What had started out as an impromptu matchup had kick-started a harrowing blood feud between Chelsea and Finella - and a budding romance between Molly and Harmonia, who had hit it off after the match, seeing the determination in one another and the potential that deserved to soar high. Harmonia knew that Molly had bigger things on her horizon than being the weaker and less experienced link of a midcard tag team. She knew that with her high-flying talent and her will to wow the crowd in anything she did, she had all the makings of a star. All it took was a little training to bring that out of her, but if Harmonia could be shaped into a main eventer, so could Molly - and she took to every lesson and every spar with the fullness of her heart, eager to reach her true glory.

Now, at last, they had their biggest match to date - one that would see the two of them facing off against Kat Hart and Tracy Canon, the SWAT Cats themselves, and the LAW Tag Team Champions! Whether they won or lost, nothing could take this moment away from them - that they had made it this far, and achieved so much, was worthy of pride in and of itself. But if they did win, then...

Molly could hardly believe it was all happening to her. It seemed like just yesterday, she was still Molly Forster of the British Bunnies - a little naive, a little inexperienced, with her good looks and welcoming disposition being what stood out about her the most. In so short a time, she had seen so much growth, and come so far. But this was it. Tonight, she would be main eventing one night of Fight the LAW - and going into a match where she just might make it to a championship. As she hung backstage, Molly's whole body tingled with excitement, and she could barely sit still; she was vibrating from head to toe. Of course, when Harmonia came closer, that was enough to ground her - to bring her back to reality, and to remind her that she was ready to face the future. She wrapped her arms tight around the Austrian, and she let out a soft sigh of contentment as she leaned in at her side.

"Mmm..." Molly looked up to face Harmonia, and when she saw the tears twinkling in her eyes, her expression was just a bit, moving into a frown. There was some primal instinct in her that stirred, seeing Harmonia cry and wanting to do something about it. But that was just a reflex. And when she thought about it more...she realized these could only be tears of joy. Harmonia had come this far. She had made it. And Molly had been there the whole way through. In fact, it was thanks to Molly, and how she had encouraged Harmonia to reach for the stars, that this opportunity was even happening at all - but it was also thanks to Harmonia, and the eye for PR that could only come from her having been a supermodel, that they could have achieved the hype that shot them straight to the title scene.

"We...really have made it, Moni. We did it. Even if we don't win this, I'm still going to be happy that we came this far at all...we'll always remember this match, and what it means. And I'm going to make sure to make this one special. For me, for you, and for all our fans out there..." Her cheeks flushed a little harder, and her arms pulled tighter around Harmonia, drawing herself closer. "But...I couldn't have done it without you, either. The Superstars was your idea. You're the one who helped elevate us to becoming the sensation we are today...and you saw the potential in me; you knew I could make it this far. Thank you, Moni...for everything."

As Harmonia leaned in to kiss her forehead, Molly purred softly. Her heart was beating a little faster - just being here, this close to Harmonia, was exciting. Even more exciting was knowing that lay ahead. And when the time came for them to make their entrance...they were going to make it one to remember.

The whole crowd united in a cheer as Harmonia and Molly took point on the ramp. Molly flashed a grin and shot a finger up in the air, using her other hand to grab for Harmonia's hand and squeeze it tight. "Hell yeah, we will!~" she cheered before she made her way down to the ring, waving for the fans and posing for photos at every opportunity - especially those who wore their colors, excited all the more by the prospect of seeing the Superstars up close. Molly did stop to blush when Harmonia wiped the lipstick off her forehead - did she really walk all the way to the ring like that, she thought? - but she shook that out of her head, smiling a little wider as she slipped into the ring. It was time to make a stand, and she was ready for it!

"ALL RIGHT, SWAT CATS!" she called out as she walked toward the middle of the ring. "You asked for challengers, and here, you've got one! We're shooting for the stars tonight...and just like with everything we do, we want to go all the way!~ So, are you ready to take us?!"

Proving oneself seems to be the theme of the day.

Recounting the journeys of each of the Three SWAT Cats individually and together as a team would be a tale and an epic long enough to be its own biopic or documentary in LAW merchandise someday. The Inaugural Tag Team Champions were in a unique position. Kat Hart, Tracy Canon, and Aurora Estrella were undoubtedly pillars of LAW and faces of the company, with each having received acknowledgement and commendation from not just the legions of LAW fans across the globe, but from management and from many other big names in LAW and in the wrestling industry. But their status and their reputations didn't push them into the same mindset and habits of many of the other active champions on the roster. Unlike many of the zealously ambitious faces and the cutthroat heels, Main Eventing the first night of Fight The LAW wasn't about adding another notch to their belt and moving on with the championship run. For Kat and Tracy, it was about their continued efforts to prove that the LAW tag division is the best tag division in pro wrestling. For Kat and Tracy, tonight was about proving themselves deserving of continuing to carry this company. For Kat and Tracy, tonight was about showcasing not just themselves in the main event, but the future torch bearers of this company in ladies like The Superstars!

That was the goal, of course. And outside in the public eye, the three luchadoras carried themselves with all the confidence and poise that everyone has come to know them for. But inside, behind closed door, they were people just like anyone else. And tonight, as the cameras zoomed in on the door to their shared cabin in the Maritime LAW ship, the air of tension was tangible. The pressure on the champions was mounting.

Kat sat on the edge of her bed. In her hand she held one of the golden tag team championship belts. She looked down at the face plate contemplatively. Tracy sat on her bed with her legs crossed. And on her lap between her thighs rested the other belt. Both luchadoras say in silence for a moment. Even all the way back here in their room, they could all feel the vibrations of the fans clamoring and cheering out on the deck, near the stage where the ring was set up. The mojito cocktail on the nightstand closest to Tracy began to vibrate more intensely, as shown by the ripples in the liquids growing more and more pronounced. The song lyrics from that refrain were unmistakable, as was the sound of Molly's voice. The challengers had just made their entrance.

"I know I usually shrug this stuff off but....you never get over it, you know? Especially with the way we've been doing this title run. The moments before you actually have to put it on the line...is when these belts feel the heaviest." Tracy thought aloud.

"Yeah...." Katherine answered.

"Each and every time we go out there, it could be our last time going out there as champs. The Superstars are a good team. I don't think that anyone doubts that they have what it takes to win...."

"They absolutely do!" Aurora walked exited the bathroom and walked in on her tag partners.

"But so do you, right? There's so much doom and gloom here. I get it. There's a lot to lose and there's a lot that's expected of us but....well, we're The SWAT Cats, right? The only reason we're in a position like this, a position where we have so many expectations to live up to, is that we've done such a good job of surpassing everyone's expectations and settings the gold standard in the first place." Estrella would close her eyes and smile.

"Say no more, fam!" Tracy would hop up and bounce off of the bed before landing on her feet on the floor, title in hand! The Circus Cat would swing her hip into Aurora's lightly bumping it.

"That yacht party ain't gonna hold itself after all, right?" Tracy was all perked up. But some concern crept onto her expression and onto Aurora's as they turned to Kat and found that The Super Kitty had zoned out a bit.

"Kat?"

"Kat, you okay?"

"Ah, yeah! I heard you! Sorry, guys....I've got a lot on my mind...."

Tracy would lean in and hug Kat from the side. Aurora would take a seat next to the heavyweight and place a hand on her thigh. Kat would let out a deep exhale before hugging Tracy back and reciprocating Aurora's gesture by placing a hand on the lightweight wrestler's shoulder.

"Dana wants me for Apex...." Kat said in a solemn tone.

"Her top student and that student's girlfriend are going to throw everything they possibly can at us to prove themselves in the main event today....I have to main event again on night 2 against Alaina Sanders and Astrid Ostberg. The two very best heavyweights opponents I could be wrestling in this company. Just like Aurora, I could be a double champion when Fight The LAW is all over....And at any point during all of that, I could suffer one the biggest losses of my career. There's so much on my plate...."

"And we'll get through it all together, Kat! Starting with this match! Let's give The Superstars the best tag match of their careers!" Tracy would wink.

"Here-here! If anyone can succeed through everything you've got lined up, it's you, Kat. To me, that's what always made The Super Kitty "Super"." Aurora would smile.

"Trace, you make sure you leave them star-crossed for me out there, will you?"

Tracy would respond to Aurora with a finger gun gesture. And as she did, Kat giggled to herself. With the support of her tag partners, Hart had found the drive to stand up and see this through!

The image of the door to their room appeared on the monitor above the entrance ramp near the ring. The door swung open as Tracy kicked it! The Circus Cat would point to the camera as she began to pass it by! Kat soon followed Tracy. Hart could be seen waving to Aurora as she made her exit. Kat would wink to the camera on her way out.

"Oh we'll go all the way with you guys! You better be ready ~!" Canon would tease as she and Kat ran down the port side areas of the ship and made their way to the deck! The cameramen tried to keep you at first, but eventually lagged behind! And as they did, The SWAT Cats theme song would blare on the speakers!
Fans all over the ship would sing along to the catchy tune as the song played! Whether they were wearing Superstar glasses and hairpins or SWAT Cat masks and tee shirts, the arrival of the champions seemed to spur positivity an cheers all over the naval vessel!

The next image of Kat and Tracy that would appear on the monitor would show them at the back of the crowd, still quite a ways from the ring. The pair would place their palms just above their eyes at the right angle to judge the distance. They were still quite a ways away! They would speak to each other for a moment, nodding and gesturing to the crowd of fans in front of them to huddle together. Their words would be inaudible amidst all the singing and cheering.

Kat and Tracy would fasten their belts around their golden belts firmly around their defined waists. They both took a few steps back. Fans and viewers would look on in awe as the two luchadora's got a running start and dove right into the section of fans in front of them! It only took a moment to see The SWAT Cats reappear! Fans broke out into cheers once more as members of the crowd worked together to ferry the champions to the ring! And as they did, the announcer got up and did his job!

"Ladies and Gentlemen! This is your MAIN EVENT of the evening!!!!"

"Introducing first, the challengers in the ring! At a combined weight of 270 pounds! The team of Harmonia Edelstein and Molly Forster! THE SUUUUUPERSTAAAAARRRRRS!"

A pause was given to allow the crowd the chance to cheer the challengers!

"And their opponents....crowd surfing their way to the ring....! They are two thirds of The Inaugural World Tag Team Champions!!!! At a combined weight of 327 pounds! "Super Kitty" Kat Hart! "Circus Cat" Tracy Canon! THE SSSSSSSWAAAAT CAAAAAAATS!"

When it was all said and done, the pair of champions would finally be hauled to the ringside area. Kat would slide onto the apron on one knee. She'd widen the gap between the middle and bottom ropes to allow Tracy the chance to dive between them and into the ring! Tracy would roll forwards before popping up to her feet and raising both hands high to show that she stuck the landing! Kat would soon duck through the ropes to enter the ring! The pair would hand their belts over to the referee before turning the attention to the challengers!

"Sorry we kept you waiting! I hope you ladies are ready to give us your very best! Matches like these can make entire careers! And win, lose or draw, we'll definitely make tonight worth talking about for years to come! For all of us!" Kat would say in a spirited tone of voice!

"Man that was SO much more insightful than what I was gonna say. I was just gonna say that I'll probably be fashionably late to the yacht party, too" Tracy would giggle.

Harmonia crossed her arms under her impressive bust and grinned as Molly took the stage, calling out the Champs. She got reminded that someone had called Molly a "blonde little firecracker", hence her energy and determination inside the ring and Harmonia again could see that this was no overstatement as her girlfriend and manager stood there in the middle of the ring. Ready for a fight.

If the SWAT Kats thought that this would be a challenging fight then they would be mistaken, The Superstars had all intentions to make this their hardest and most grueling fight to date. This was their chance to show what they really could do and neither Moni nor Molly would miss it. They had trained and sculpted their bodies until the last minute of this match, Harmonia showing off more muscles then she ever had and even Molly who always had been a rather thin, mobile and agile wrestler sported muscles on her toned body where there had'nt been ones before. Harmonia was sure, if this Molly and the Chelsea from last PPV would face the Carnival Girls today they would outright obliterate them in mere minutes.

And what was the point were they got stronger, when they started to become so much more that they ever were? When they fell in love. Love was a mighty feeling and when it was about your true love and you sharing the ring together it meant that they had to be strong enough to look for each other and Harmonia and Molly did. They had fought the team of Irish Oldschool with Molly being able to bodyslam a woman wide out of her weightclass, a spot that since had became so legendary that Harmonia had used it as print for Shirts, mugs and many other things. If Harmonia had one talent next to wrestling it was her keen business sense and according to many Superstar Shirts that showed Molly bodyslamming Lauren on the front and Harmonia crucifix powerbombing Honie at the back, it was clear that their beloved fans ate it up.

The Theme of the Cats started to play and when Harmonia saw her two opponents arriving to massive cheers of everyone on the deck she was quite positive about it. The Cats were the Champs and they also were good ones, they cared for each other and their fans, they were massively talented and you just had to love their energy and spirit as they got literally carried by their fans, crowdsurfing right to the ring. Harmonia threw her head back and laughed. It was pretty epic sight but also really funny, seeing Tracy ride her fans with a big grin. So these were the women they would face?

Harmonia smiled and got out of their corner, meeting the Cats with Molly at her side in the middle of the ring. "Good evening, Kat, Tracy.", she smiled and shook both their hands. "I am so glad we finally meet in person and in the ring for a PPV no less.",she smiled and looked at the belts that were given to the referee who held them up for massive cheers.

"They are beautiful. Thanks for cleaning them for us, means much to us.", Harmonia quipped and then looked at Tracy. "Fräulein, when we have beaten you, you will work at my yacht!", she grinned but her genuine smile showed that all of this was in good fun. Harmonia put an arm around Molly. "Alright, no holding back. We give each other everything we have. May the better team win. I think, Fräulein Hart, it would be fitting for us as Teamleaders to go in first, if you like that?", Harmonia smiled while squeezing Mollys shoulder.

"This is the biggest Fight the LAW yet and we should make this main event as unforgettable as others beforehand. So, Ladies do we have a deal?", the blonde Austrian said and reached out her hand together with Molly to shake hands before the match started.

After making her announcement, Molly took a step back from the center of the ring, watching for when the champions would react. There was a pause after she'd made the call, and a silence had fallen over the arena. But it wasn't an awkward, questioning silence. If anything, everyone in the stands was holding their breath with rapt anticipation. They knew that the SWAT Cats took themselves seriously as champions - that they wanted to elevate the belts, and the tag division as a whole, with every time they got in the ring. It wasn't like them to back out of a match, especially not one as publicized as this. No, everyone was sure that the Cats would arrive soon enough - Molly was, and so were the fans. The real question on everyone's mind was about how they were going to arrive. The one thing everyone knew was that when the time came, they were going to make a splash - and the Cats certainly didn't disappoint, surfing over the fans on their way down to the ring to the sound of thunderous cheers!

At the sight of it, Molly let out a gasp, her eyes going wide with excitement. "Whoah-!" she exclaimed, before looking back at Harmonia. "Moni, do you think we could do that some time?" But then, seeing that their opponents had entered the ring, Molly knew that she needed to get serious, and she cleared her throat, taking a step back. "Erm, as I was saying..."

She took her place at Harmonia's side, looking on at the Cats with a grin and a polite nod. As much as she was determined to win, she was willing to show respect for her competitors. She saw Harmonia was willing to go first, which she nodded to as well. "All right, Moni...just know that I'm right behind ya, okay?" And when Harmonia extended a hand to Kat, so too did Molly look Tracy in the eye and hold her hand out as well, smiling as she readied herself for what was sure to be an exciting bout. When these two teams were involved, there was no way it could be anything but.

The Cats had made their entrance in style! The announcements had been made! The main event was about to begin!

For all the good vibes and the fanfare of The Champs leaning on their fans literally and figuratively to make their way to the ring, the reality was setting in. The pressure was on The Superstars to deliver. Championship opportunities like these didn't come by for just anyone. Against champions like The SWAT Cats, the opportunity for the gold and the opportunity to showcase themselves in the main event of a pay-per-view was not to be taken lightly.

Similarly, the pressure was on the champions to continue showing off why they were deserving of being the faces of this company. Each and every defense was a chance to be taken off guard and lose the gold. Each and every defense was another test to prove that they deserved their spot. Moni and Molly made no bones about this. They had every intention of defeating The SWAT Cats and leaving The Maritime LAW as newly crowned champions! And as Katherine and Tracy handed their golden belts over to the official, as Moni laid eyes on the champions and their titles, all of this came to a head!

"Mmmmwah~!" Tracy kissed her belt before handing it over to the female ref presiding over the match.

"You're welcome, Harmonia! And lucky you! Today I found time on my schedule to clean these belts AND to clean your clock!" Tracy would boast as stepped forward to shake the hand of Molly that was extended to her.

"Easy, Trace." Kat calmed her partner. The Super Kitty wasted no time taking Moni's hand in her own. She looked the woman in the eye with a look of seriousness and anticipation. Kat's presence wasn't unnerving, but it was plain to see that she did mean business. And they communicated that much in response to The Austrian.

"On the record, The SWAT Cats don't have a team leader. We're equals and we treat each other as such. Despite this gimmick and this getup, I'm actually it quite as catty as much partner is here, if you couldn't tell." Katherine winked.

"We feel the same way. We expect you two to hold back absolutely nothing. And we expect to be able to steal the show with The Superstars standing across the ring from us. Harmonia, if you want me, you've got me. It's just like you said, may the better team win. Good luck!" Hart would smile before turning around to head back to her corner and fist-bump Tracy.

Kat would stretch in her corner. She made use of the top rope, rotating her torso and keeping a grip on the rope to stretch her upper body and keep herself limber. There was no doubt that the challengers would be making any needed last-minute preparations and game planning in their own corner. By now, Kat and Tracy had so much experience together that they didn't need to discuss anything before a match. They were constantly in sync and they planned to keep that up here! Before anyone realized it, the referee had already called for the bell! The sound rang out! And when it did, Kat would slowly circle the ring with Moni, locking eyes with The Superstar! The brawny, busty luchadora would let the anticipation mount for a moment before rushing in for an Elbow and Collar lockup to kick things off by trying to outmuscle her legal opponent and push her back toward one of the neutral corners of the ring!

Harmonias smile grew wider and wider and no one would miss the longing looks the Superstars would give the belts of the Champions when they handed them over to the referee.

When hearing Tracy talking about cleaning their clock she smiled. She knew that Tracy was the more nochalant one of the group. And she was a middleweight which already sparked Harmonias natural rival instincts. She took a few steps forward and met the other woman face to face. Their big breasts pressed against each other as they stared each other down, none of the two backing away.

"Let's see who cleans which clock today, Circus Cat. After we sent Kat to the shelter I am gladly taking care of declawing you.", she chuckled and a challenging grin appeared on her face. "Whatever happens tonight, I am sure we will meet one on one and can talk things out, all personally...", the Blonde said and bent forward, their foreheads touched as they still stared each other down.

When Kat went on, Harmonia left Tracy and walked back, but giving her a playful wink as she met the Superkitty in the middle of the ring.
Harmonia nodded to the taller woman. "May the best team winy Fräulein Hart.", she smiled and got into position...

DING DING DING!

It was on. The big evening, the most important one in Harmonias and Mollys career by now had started and Harmonia and Cat started with a lockup. The two women struggled with each other, trying to overpower the other one until, not surprisingly, Kat would take advantage, getting Harmonia backwards. Step by step they went back and when it seemed that Miss Hart had all the aces in her cards, the walk stopped.

Kat would surely try to move Harmonia but the Superstar stood like a rock against the waves as she chuckled. "Let me demonstrate you what the Shadow Fortress and the Superstars are all about.", Harmonia whispered and with a swift maneuver, turned to Kats side, grabbing her head into a headlock.

"Hold still and it won't hurt.", Harmonia said and brought her leg between the Swat Cat. If everything worked as planned she would try to take Kat down with a russian legsweep!

There was a healthy sense of competitiveness between the two teams and playful banter to go along with it. But everyone in the ring and everyone in the boat watching knew that the time for all semblances of playfulness was about to be over. The anticipation of the sound of the bell was palpable. Tracy gripped the top rope before her with excitement and anxiety. Kat let out a slow, soft exhale. The fires of this hotly anticipated main event title match would either forge new champions or temper the current ones! When the bell finally rang, The Super Kitty took the initiative!

"Hngh!" Grunts of effort escaped the heavyweight luchadora's lips as the powerhouses of both teams stomped their way around the ring, push each other in the lock-up, vying for control by pitting strength versus strength!

There was a brief struggle in the opening of the match after the bell, but eventually, Kat decided to dig her heels in and stop feeling Harmonia out! The heavyweight's back and biceps budged as she pushed as she visibly pushed forward to try and muscle Harmonia into the corner, and much to everyone's surprise, somehow some way, Edelstein did. not. move!

"What?!" Hart reacted with a look of surprise.

"Seriously?!" Tracy called out with a wide-eyed look from the ring apron!

"Girl ate her Wheaties today!" Kat answered Tracy, glancing at her before returning her focus to Harmonia.

It was quite common for Kat to hold back in the early goings of her matches, particularly against underdog opponents. But this...wasn't the case here! Just one look at Kat and Harmonia's struggle was all it took to show that even if it was for a few moments Edelstein really was stonewalling Kat! And that was no small feat! Kat wasn't just the heaviest hitter amongst The SWAT Cats, her strength rivaled even the strongest heavyweights in LAW's heavyweight division! To see Harmonia more than match her here earned cheers from the fans in spades! And moreover, it shocked Katherine!

"Ah!" Hart gasped in surprise as The Superstar turned towards Kat's side and secured her in a Side Headlock!

Kat placed her gloved palms on Harmonia's waist and prepared to fend her off, but Edelstein had already grapevined her leg and set her up for a Russian Legsweep!

Kat didn't react verbally, but she was more than ready for the move! When Harmonia swung backward to bring them both down to the canvas on their backs, Kat crouched, lowering her center of gravity and softening the impact! When they both went down, Kat swung her leg upwards! With Harmonia's leg in front of her own, Kat looked to force them to roll backward such that the two of them would end up on all fours!

From here, Kat would look to complete her reversal by securing Moni around her waist and hoisting the smaller woman up for a Backdrop Driver, bringing Edelstein down hard onto her neck and head! If Kat managed to counter this way, she'd end up on her back. The Super Kitty would lift all her limbs for a second before rolling back onto her shoulders and kipping up off the canvas, enlivening the crowd with her technical and athletic display! Tracy would pump her fist in the air repeatedly and join in on the cheering! And Kat would turn toward a reeling Moni.

"I think you'll find that I'm a few pegs up from your old sparring partners at Shadow Fortress, yeah? You're strong, Superstar, real strong. But you're not the total package yet." Kat would bring straighten her fingers in one hand gesture by forming a right ankle between her fingers and her palm to communicate levels.

"If you asked most folks, I'm on par with your old sensei, Dana. But if you ask me..." Kat would raise her hand up high.

"I'm a notch or two past even her. I mean, she couldn't take these belts from us. So if you wanna do what even she couldn't, you'll need to give me everything you've got and then some." Kat would make things abundantly clear if she managed to regain control!

Harmonia heared the reaction of the fans and Mollys cheers as she stopped Katherines onslaught. The Kats were'nt stupid, surely they made their homework and knew that Harmonia always had been exceptionally strong but to see it in action, to experience it, to feel it. To see the sexy body of the Ex-Model built with muscles, holding her ground against a bigger and stronger woman still had to surprise the champs.

And Harmonia did just that as she heard Tracy and Kat commenting on her breakfast. "Oh only, two black coffees and an egg.", she quipped as she had Kat in the headlock and followed it with a russian legsweep attempt but when Harmonia moved her leg she noticed that something was off. Kat was'nt surprised but ready and she transitioned the move to them getting down on all fours.

For a second they looked into each others eyes and Harmonia gave Kat an appreciative nod. This fight would be her hardest challenge yet, that much was true. But maybe the Superstars could make this the most challenging fight the Kats ever had, too?

The Super Kitty on the other hand was on the move again, completing the reversal by grabbing Harmonias waist and sending her backwards with a backdrop driver and sent the Blonde crashing into the canvas.

Harmonia had seen something like that coming and even if she was unable to stop Kats attempts she at least could position her body right to make the impact less painful and effective.
Her shoulders took the most of the attacky having lifted her head and neck at the right time. Of course that hurt enough and Harmonia knew that this pain she felt now was the one she had to face when tussling with the big girls of the company.

Harmonia dropped to her side clutching one shoulder as she heard Kat talk. Two years ago Harmonia would have felt belittled and throwing a tantrum but now she knew that she had Harts attention and the talks about Dana and the Shadow Fortress were pep talk.

Of course it was true, Dana had no significant victory against the Kats in her pocket but that was'nt Shadow Fortress fault or anything. Danas victories and losses were hers and Harmonia did not compare herself to anyone else. Not even to her sensei.

She heard the Cats working the crowd and smirked. She could not argue against that. Harmonia looked up and got on one knee before getting up. "Are we here to talk or wrestle, Fräulein Hart? I know you want to keep your shiny belts a little longer but a minute of talking hardly counts to your reign that ends tonight. Except you want to talk for a day... ", Harmonia said and cracked her neck before jumpstarting at the Super Kitty. An obvious attack yes, all signs pointed to a spear and when Kat got into positon, Harmonia dropped to her knees, landed before the Champs feet and performed a doubleleg takedown!

If that one was successful she would follow it with something special...
