3 Of A Kind - Fumi Inari vs Alice GASTER vs Aurora Estrella "The Galaxy Cat"

[winner3]

Triple Threat Elimination Match: Victory decided via pin fall, submission, or knockout. Anything goes. The last woman standing will be declared the victor

Backstage, LAW's newest technicolored lightweight luchadora clenched her fists against her kneepads as she rested in a seated position, waiting for her cue. Aurora breathed heavily. She was scheduled to take part in a Triple Threat Match up against a fellow up and comer, and against the hardcore sister of LAW's renowned Shadow Lord. Her mind raced as she spaced out. Her feet tapped and she leaned forward. A member of the production crew approached her from behind. An interviewer lady with a microphone tapped the masked Galaxy Cat on the shoulder as her afro puff swayed from side to side.

"Oh! Hello." Aurora greeted the woman and cameraman. The video was being broadcast on the titantron, just moments before the match was set to take place.

"Hey, Aurora. Sorry to bother you before a big match but we wanted to get your thoughts. Some of the other wrestlers say that you've been trembling nervously backstage when normally you're rather confident. Do you have any fears or anxieties about taking on both Fumi and Alice
, tonight?"

Aurora turned her head to the side and thought for a moment before answering. "Hmmmm, honestly, not particularly. I think it's anyone's match.....it'll probably come down to whichever one of us is the most opportunistic. Sorry if I concerned you or anyone else." The ebony luchadora would pop up to her feet and perk up. She'd flash a wide, confident smile before patting the interviewer on the back. "For what it's worth, you should know, I'm not nervous. I'm trembling with excitement for the match!"

With that, The Galaxy Cat dashed off. She'd arrive at the entrance ramp just in time for her theme song. Having wrestled competently in another match recently, the audience was already privy to the costumed fighter's signature appearance and upbeat attitude. Fans cheered Estrella as she galloped down the ramp and towards the ring, high fiving as many fans as she could before sliding under the bottom rope. With more wrestlers present than usual, management saw it fit to keep the entrances brief. Aurora would quickly hop onto the middle turnbuckle and throw a peace sign gesture yo at the audience before jumping back down to the canvas. She adjusted her gloves and brushed her translucent skirt to her side as she eyed the entrance ramp in anticipation of her opponents' arrivals!

In an interesting showcase for the LAW crowd, the company decided to pit 3 of their still relatively fresh wrestlers in their Lightweight division against each other in a 3-way match.

Alice didn't think much of it. Not every match of her's could be a hardcore brawl, since those required money to both set up, and heal up the wrestlers taking part in them...so she had to use her skills to earn her keep in LAW in other ways.

As she sat backstage, looking at the TV set as this week's episode of LAW TV rolled on, she scrolled her phone to find some info on Aurora and Fumi...but both ladies were so fresh to the roster, there still wasn't much available. In a weird twist, Alice was the most veteran LAW wrestler in the match...not that that effected anything...just that it was funny to think about...especially since she was still the shortest Lightweight in the match.

As the tv showed Aurora's short interview, the Galaxy Cat's entrance into the ring was shown, doing typical nice wrestler stuff like greeting and high-fiving people in the crowd. Well that told the Pale Rider everything she needed about one of her rivals tonight.

Mid-entrance, she recieved a knock on the locker room door, letting her know she was up shortly. Alice stood up, picked up her kendo stick, and walked towards the Gorilla Position.

"Painless" by Fozzy played on the titantron as Alice Gaster walked onto the stage, pointing her stick into the crowd...and then into the ring as she made her way to the ring with a serious look on her face, rolling into the ring silently, as she pointed her stick at Aurora...thinking that the masked wrestler looked rather cute.

She dropped her stick outside the ring before the ref could ask about it, and left for her side of the ring, keeping her eyes on Aurora: "Sorry if the mask gets a little bloody by the end..."

Letting out a pleasurable sigh as she stretched out backstage, Fumi Inari was getting ready for yet another match that the promotion had planned for her, the fox reflecting on the opportunity she had been given. Fumi was still relatively new to LAW, though she had been through a few matches after making quite a name for herself in her debut, and now she was presented with a chance to take on two other relative newcomers and cement herself as a force to be reckoned with!

"Hmmmm... as long as these two losers aren't working together, this is gonna be easy..." Fumi mused to herself as she finished up her stretches, her body feeling limber as usual, putting a smile on the masked woman's face.

From there, she would make her way out of the locker room and down to the entrance to the ring, waiting for just a moment with a bored expression as the backstage crew made sure everything was okay for her to head out. And finally, they would give the fox her signal, and Fumi would step through the curtain out to the entrance ramp with a self-important flourish, all eyes on her!

Spoiler

Walking down to the ring with a smirk on her face, Fumi ignored the frosty response that the crowd gave the known heel, instead quickly slipping into the ring and eyeing up both of her opponents, starting with Alice!

"...Hmph." Fumi looked over her foe with a seemingly bored look on her face before finally letting out a short noise of dismissal, acting as though Alice was beneath even addressing. However, the other woman in the ring would get more of a reaction from Fumi, the girl's eyes narrowing through the eyes in her mask as she looked at Aurora.

"Cat..." Fumi hissed, as though the word itself left a bad taste in her mouth, spinning and heading over to an unoccupied corner to await the bell, noticeably glaring daggers at the feline wrestler that was across the ring!

[winner3]

Having just now met both of her opponent's, Aurora could tell that she was in for one heck of a fight, tonight. Her eyes kept darting back and forth between Alice and Fumi. Her mind raced with thoughts and variables that factored into this match. Alice brought her kendo stick to the ring. Did she always do that? Was it just for this match since it's triple threat rules? Fumi seemed to have it out for her. Were they both going to gun for the Galaxy Cat, tonight? Was this premeditated? Are they in cahoots!?

Aurora thought all these things to herself. But rather than allow herself to be overcome with nerves, the lightweight catgirl let out a deep breath and resorted to formalities: namely a cordial introduction. The bell was going to ring any minute, so she figured she might as well.

"Hey you two. I'm gonna try to not judge books by their covers and play nice. I'm LAW's Galaxy Cat and I'm trying to earn my keep here, same as you. Good luck to you both!" Estrella said with a forced smile. She could feel the mal-intent radiating from Fumi - the propensity for violence emanating from Alice. But none of that meant that Aurora had to get uptight about it. She accepted that they were all there to win and have fun. It's just that some of them wanted to do it at other wrestlers' expense.

[Vc0m]

"Hmm...", Alice let out as Fumi made her way down the ramp. She was feeling, in a way, the odd one out in the match, as the only competitor not wearing a mask. Even her sister would've made a good replacement for her with her character in terms of consistency between 3 competitors in this match.

This was only something funny she figured out between the 3 of them, still fully intent to kick both women to the curb.

At Fumi addressing her (or rather, trying to not pay attention to Alice at all), the Brit simply shrugged. If she thought she wasn't anything special, it would feel a ton more satisfying defeating the fox-girl...who had much more hostile reaction to the feline competitor in the ring.

"Foxes are canines, right? Cats and dogs...heh...", Alice would chuckle to herself.

Aurelia, on the other hand...was a lot more kind to her 2 opponents. Alice couldn't hate girls like that, in it to both win it and have fun: "Heh..."playing nice" is relative, especially in a no disqualification match, kitten..."

The ref would start asking the girls in turn for if they were ready to begin, Alice positively nodding, as she awaited reply from Fumi and Aurelia...

[ADarlingDucky]

After taking a moment to acknowledge both of the women that she was up against tonight, Fumi would quickly step back to one of the unoccupied corners, turning to face towards the center of the ring as she reclined against the turnbuckle. The fox had seemed to already make judgements about her two foes, her attitude towards Alice making things clear that the two saw each other as foes and nothing more, both getting eager to wipe one another out, while she clearly bristled at the site of the feline wrestler, seemingly quite in character with her canine persona.

Listening to Aurora's cheery greeting, Fumi was made all the more annoyed by the feline wrestler as she greeted both Fumi and Alice at once, the canine luchadora rolling her eyes as she leaned against the turnbuckles. As the referee approached her to check if she was ready, Fumi would give her a simple nod and a dismissive wave of the hand, sending her off to go check on Aurora!

"Well isn't that just the cutest! You know, fuck it! Why don't we just forget about the match and go have a slumber party instead!" Fumi said in a ditzy falsetto tone, before rolling her eyes and dropping the sarcastic voice! "Or, how about I take ugly over there and beat you with her, like she's my own personal kendo stick." Fumi replied with a nod towards Alice, clearly not in the mood to make any friends in this triple threat match!

[winner3]

Aurora was quick on the uptake. Evidentally, playing nice here wasn't going to go over well. Alice and Fumi were both born and bred fighters. A quick google search on both women made that much abundantly clear. But to say that didn't really play nice with others, especially in the ring, was the understatement of the night. Aurora visibly struggled to maintain her smile. She raised her eyebrow at Fumi's comment as the referee gave her the once over. Thinking on her feet, Aurora began to instigate, hoping to make the most of her place in this triple threat warzone.

"Yikes, I might have actually taken you up on that slumber party." The colorfully-clad luchadora replied to Fumi.

"So I know canines and felines don't really play nice together, but you're not gonna take that from this primadonna, are you, 'ugly'?" Aurora said whilst turning toward Alice, making sure to gesture with air quotes whilst saying 'ugly'. The ebony, lightweight luchadora tried to build tension between her two opponents. Before she realized it, the bell had already rung.

Itching to get started, and hoping to kick things off with a bang, Aurora's racing mind would find itself interrupted by the sound of the bell! Upon which, she'd race toward Fumi hoping to take the Fox girl down a peg right out of the gate with a Running Dropkick while she was still relaxing in her corner

[Vc0m]

Alice awaited the "readies" from her two foes. The ref approached Fumi, right as the fox girl gave a dismissive nod to the official...before blowing up at Aurelia's sportswoman-like declaration, before her attention turned to rib at Alice:

"Yeeaaaah, you wouldn't be strong enough to do that lady...", she would think to herself.

Still, Aurelia didn't seem to take Fumi seriously for now, putting the insult aimed at Alice into air quotes, the Brit letting out another quick chuckle and a smile into the Galaxy Cat's direction.

The moment the bell rung...the cat, in this case will be taken off the chain, as Aurelia rushed towards Fumi, aiming to take the foxy Luchadora off her feet with a dropkick!

Deciding not to interfere for the sake of not getting a face full of Aurelia's feet in her face, Alice stood in her corner for now to see how things played out...

[ADarlingDucky]

With a spiteful gaze on her face, Fumi's frown deepened as Aurora shrugged of her harsh words, the fox's threats being brushed aside as if they were nothing, only worsening her already foul mood. Her eyes shifted back and forth between Alice and Aurora, seeing the maskless lightweight flash the cat a grin, causing Fumi to give her a glare that spelled trouble for the hardcore fighter, though it had the unintended side effect of leaving her attention completely off of the Galaxy Cat!

So as soon as the bell rung, Fumi would hear a pounding on the canvas, her head whipping around to see Aurora taking flight, seeing the bottoms of her boots rapidly approaching, before slamming her in the face!

"AUGH!" The luchadora let out a cry as she was nailed with the running dropkick in the corner, her head snapping back and legs going weak, the hit connecting flush with her face, catching her off guard! Fumi bounced off the corner and immediately fell forwards, collapsing onto her stomach and reaching up to clutch her face, taken down just moments into the match!

[winner3]

Aurora was an honest and upright character both in and out of the ring, but she wasn't above sucker-punching someone that had it coming. But right now, the vibrantly colored vixen was trying to play smart. The satisfaction of knocking a trash-talking Fumi's block off would come second to the advantage gained from momentarily turning things into a one on one! After Dropkicking the fox girl and taking her down, Aurora would pop up to her feet and brush her translucent skirt aside before bending over to pry Fumi from the canvas. Estrella would try and prop the girl up on her feet before setting her up for an Irish Whip in Alice's direction!

"Incoming!" Aurora would yell to the third lightweight in the match if all went according to plan. She'd try and set Alice GASTER up to take Fumi down a peg, furthering the luchadora's agenda to isolate one of her foes and take them on one on one!
