Rose Gold (c) vs "Galaxy Cat" Aurora Estrella - Ladder Match for the LAW Lightweight Title

[SuckerPunch]

Rose Gold's eyes followed Lexy as she slipped out of the ring to take hold of a ladder. She paid special attention to the way her old attire clung to her lover's pert backside as it was lifted and supported by the tight-fitting lycra. She pulled her bottom lip between her teeth as she thought terribly sweet and lascivious things about her. She was already planning her victory celebration. There'd be champagne. And a glass wall that overlooked all of the Tokyo Skyline. There'd be strawberries and creme. Silk sheets. But there absolutely wouldn't be, was clothing!

The rattle of a ladder broke Rose Gold's fantasy. Her head snapped to the place she'd left Aurora. The drunken grin on her lips fled, becoming something indignant and defensive. She bristled, her shoulders arched like the back of a cat. If her hair could have stood on end, it would have. Her leisurely grip tightened on the ropes until they creaked like leather.

But then the Galaxy Cat took a single step forward before collapsing back to the canvas. "Ha!" A hand slipped over her mouth as she let out a laugh. It was pantomime. But it was also to cover up the flash of fear that had accompanied Aurora somehow surviving their attack. "Ha ha ha!" Her laughter bubbled up and over, though it couldn't wash away all of the insecurity.

She hopped off the turnbuckle as Lexy set up the ladder and began to ascend. While Lexy gave Aurora no attention at all, Rose Gold couldn't stop herself from looking back over at her.

Lexy's hand came into view out of the corner of her eye. She looked over towards the Greenette and her anxiety melted away. She placed a boot on the second rung of the ladder. "Yes, let's get this over with." Her victory plans filled her head once more and caused her cheeks to go pink with anticipation. She licked her lips as if cleaning something sweet off of them. "And when we get home, I'll be taking more than your heart!" Her hand clapped into Lexy's. And she began to ascend!

[winner3]

The plan had come together! Their grand plan to see to it that this nuisance of a challenger would be overcome in short order! The lights all over the arena danced and flashed as the cameras maneuvered to catch them at the right angle! By this point, Lexy had already made her way to the top of the ladder. The scantily clad, perky greenette stood in the second rung from the very top of the metal structure! She lowered her hand down the other side and took Rose's hand in her own! Lexy's blushed and smiled with a face full of glee! She knew that in just a matter of hours, she'd have a face full of much more than that!

By now, the pair had met at the very top of the ladder! Fans reacted with a range of emotions as the Lightweight Champion and her lover looked into one another's eyes! Lexy's expression conveyed a submissive longing for her lover. Rose's conveyed the will to ravish her!

"Shall we?!" An excited Lexy reached up toward the title! Gasps filled the arena as her fingertips brushed Rose's title! But the moment it did, a sound rang out from ringside. A sound so unpleasant, a sound with such sheer dissonance that it made Lexy's eye visibly twitch!

"What....?" Alan reacted to the sound of....metal crunching against metal? That's what it sounded like to her, at least.

The lightweight title swayed to and fro as Lexy's hand recoiled. She slowly turned her head towards the ringside area. The sound had come from where Aurora had collapsed just seconds ago!

The moment her gaze passed over the ropes, there she was! The Galaxy Cat met Lexy's and Rose Gold's gaze! Hope and determination flashed in those yellow and blue eyes of hers! There Estrella was! On both feet! With a look of a woman on a mission!

The giant screen in the arena told the whole story here! In the time that it had taken Lexy to set up the ladder - during the time that it had taken Rose to hop off the turnbuckles and ascend the structure, Aurora had grabbed hold of the rings of the slanted ladder at ringside! In one quick motion, the luchadora lifted the base of the ladder and hurled it onto the barricade separating the fans from the action at ringside! The challenger had formed a bridge between the ring apron and the barricade using the ladder! She had done so after falling onto her front, seemingly still smacked senseless from taking the tandem Queenmaker! It had been some since Aurora had taken the move. Surely she didn't collapse on purpose that time...did she?

"RRRNGH!" Lexy gripped the top of the ladder with both hands. She let out a furious bellow in the face of this insolence! And as she did, Aurora made her move!

Fans all over the arena came alive with cheers when The Galaxy Cat darted off like a gunshot! In practically no time at all, the lightweight luchadora zipped into the ring! She used her momentum from sliding under the bottom rope to push herself up to her feet! She sped past the ladder Lexy and Rose were situated on! Estrella bounced off the ropes! Before anyone could comprehend the plan Aurora had put together, she was already ricocheting off the ropes and barreling toward the deceitful duo with far more than a head of steam!

"HRAAAAAAH!" With the crowd spurring her on and with something to prove, Aurora let out a battle cry as she launched herself off the canvas and hit the hinges of the ladder with an impactful Shotgun Dropkick!

Estrella had to move with speed and urgency to make up for what she was lacking in terms of size and power! But it all came together! Lexy had kept her eyes on Aurora like a woman possessed! But that didn't stop her from tipping the ladder over with her Running Dropkick! Slowly the ladder teetered for a second or two before the fifteen-foot high structure came hurtling down towards the ropes on its side! Lexy cursed Aurora's name as she was sent down in an arc alongside the ladder! But that wasn't even the worst of it!

"My love!" Lexy called out to her lover as she went down! She extended a hand to Rose! The scene of her fall might have been something reminiscent of a Renaissance painting! But that didn't save the greenette!

What followed was a catastrophe of epic proportions! Due to her positioning at the top of the ladder, and due to Aurora's careful planning, Lexy had been sent careering in an arc down with the ladder, over the top rope, and onto the ladder bridge that Aurora had set up at ringside!

It happened so fast, the sound of Lexy falling off of one ladder and onto another took everyone by surprise! The metal frame of the suspended, horizontal ladder made fans react with shock! The ladder gave way and bent at the center! Lexy was laid out in the wreckage! Her buxom bust was partly exposed as her tiny outfit gave way along with the rest of her! Lexy Alan was laid out! She was on her back and on top of the now-bent and destroyed ladder! Her eyes fluttered before shutting completely! And as they did, a kneeling Aurora leaned against the middle rope! Aurora chants broke out all across the arena!

Contrary to her usual cool and collected demeanor, The Galaxy Cat couldn't help but feel the hype!

"You're....next..." She muttered under her breath! She held her head with her free hand. But soon, she gripped the rope with both hands and raised her voice as she trained her gaze on the LAW Lightweight Champion!

"HEY UNDERDOG....!" Aurora would point and call out to Rose Gold!

"YOU'RE! NEXT!!!" The Galaxy Cat let out a massive battle cry! It was met with a pop from the crowd! She declared her intention to leave the champion in the very same state that she had left Lexy in! And after the events that just transpired, nearly every person in the arena and everyone watching the match all across the world believed that Estrella could very well make good on her words and win this thing!

[SuckerPunch]

There was something immensely satisfying about not even having to fully climb the ladder herself. She watched her beautiful Lexy ascend, taking special care to trace the curve of her fit backside and the lines of her inner thighs from this unique perspective. "Mmmn. Good girl."

Lexy was atop the ladder. Rose Gold was half-way up it, but in truth, was already back home in their penthouse. And that left Aurora. Who was laid out with a stupid look on her-

Lexy's exclaimation cause the blonde to snap her head towards where the Galaxy Cat had been left! She was gone! The clatter of metal drew her attention towards one side of the ring!

"No!? How!?" The shock left her stunned! A convenient excuse for her inability to act. The truth was, Aurora had already slipped under the behemoth ladder they were upon! She was fast... so fast. Faster than herself!

*CLANG!*

Her shotgun drop kick smashed into the ladder! Lexy teetered and Rose Gold flailed! "O-oh God!" They were so high up!

The current Champion's head finally snapped to Aurora. Her eyes were absent the defiant fire she'd preciously met her with. That fire had been smothered by desperate panic. Her mouth open in a silent prayer to whatever god governed gravity and momentum as she held on for dear life!

"FUCKFUCKFUCK!" Okay. Perhaps the prayer wasn't totally silent.

The ladder hit the ropes and all hell broke loose! Lexy let out a cry as she toppled head over heels off the top of the ladder! Rose Gold reached out for her on instinct!

20 feet was a long way to fall. Rose flailed as she fell backwards towards the ladder! She could see Lexy above her and their hands clapped together as the lovers sought eachother's comfort as they plummeted towards the abyss!

The tables had turned so suddenly... Rose Gold had gone from inches away from victory to seconds from a hospital visit.

Rose Gold's eyes closed, a tear formed in the corner of her eyes. It ran down her cheek in a black line as it mixed with her mascara.

"I love you." It sounded like a goodbye... They were doomed, after all.

Rose Gold whipped her own body to the right, turning in the air and catching Lexy's body against her shoulder. Holding her in a tight embrace.

They turned and turned...

Until *CRUNCH!*

Rose Gold drove Lexy back first into the ladder beneath them with a rolling shoulder throw! A judo staple that she had practiced a million times.

The ladder bent and buckled and snapped under the two women's weight. But the momentum of the throw saw Rose Gold rolling unharmed onto her feet with little more than a stagger.

"HOW COULD YOU?!" She screamed back at Aurora as she called her an underdog! She stared daggers into the ring. Her arm whipped backward, extending her index finger was thrust accusingly at the body on the ladder.

Lexy Alan lay devastated within the wreckage. Rose Gold had sacrificed her. She'd used a judo technique mid-air to protect herself. Lexy Alan hadn't only suffered the fall, but Rose Gold's fall as well. And had the damage amplified by the technique ontop of that. Forget something, it would be a miracle if -everything- wasn't broken.

While Rose Gold was left with nary a scratch. Any blood on her... Was Lexy's.

"LOOK AT WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO HER!!!" And in her mind, it was Aurora's fault. What else could she have possibly done? There was no way she would have volunteered to take that damage. And risk losing the match? Her title? Ridiculous!

[winner3]

Rose Gold going out of her way to leverage her judo skills and use Lexy as a landing pad was simultaneously one of the most skillful and one of the most reprehensible displays that anyone would see throughout the course of this Fight The LAW PPV!

The commentators went ballistic at the desk! They called for the replay to be shown in slo-mo on the titantron time after time! Aurora was still hopped up on adrenaline after setting all of this up! She was sure her efforts would take both Rose and her lover Lexy out of the picture! But a quick and very highly dramatized reaction from Rose made The Galaxy Cat give pause!

"W-what?!" A bewildered Aurora squinted. She was still kneeling and clinging to the middle rope for support.

"M....my....m-my...love...." A weakened Lexy's hand trembled like the limbs of a fawn as she tried to reach out for Rose's face.

It took a moment for the doctors to arrive on the scene. The ladder beneath Lexy was mangled beyond recognition! Lexy would pass out soon after getting her mistress's attention! But before she did, she did manage to find just a few more words!

"I....I love you....too.... Please....go get her.....Do it...for us...." Alan sighed before losing consciousness! Despite suffering injuries to her back and likely elsewhere that would put most wrestlers out of action long-term, the greenette wore a smile on her face! She was satisfied knowing that Rose came out of this virtually unharmed, even if it meant sacrificing herself and being used to break the champ's fall!

Aurora's confusion would be cleared up when she finally looked up at the big screen! From her vantage point in the ring, she hadn't noticed Rose Gold blatantly flip Lexy into position in midair! As the drama between champion and lover continued, the audience began to catch on! The blatant facade that the Lightweight Champion put on in blaming Lexy's nasty spill on Aurora spurred a wide range of reactions! Mostly boos! But the tag team champion wasn't just appalled or disgusted, no! She was incensed!

"You.....YOU!" Aurora's eyes dilated with a sense of righteous indignation that no one had seen well up within her in her career!

Right away, the petite luchadora found the strength to rise up to her feet! She balled her fists! Estrella marched towards the ladder within the ring, the one that was still tilted and leaned against the ropes following Rose's and Lexy's fall. Her heterochromatic eyes locked onto Rose's yellow ones. She began to raise her voice.

"How...dare..." And amidst her rage, even with her fist shaking and her eyes filled with anger over the mere thought that a champion and representative of a weight division at LAW would dare pin this on her....she found some semblance of clarity.

This anger Aurora felt was the same indignation and folly that so many of Rose's past "challengers" had fallen victim to. Even with the crowd hyping her up to set the Sinister Siren straight, even with everyone in the arena remarking on how downright reprehensible the underhanded champion was, Aurora did her best to find her cool!

The Galaxy Cat gripped a wrung of the ladder. She stated deep into her opponent's eyes. The medical crew was already beginning to move Lexy onto a stretcher. And while this was happening, Aurora Estrella found her center by reminding the champion and everyone else precisely what she was here for tonight!

"I stand by everything I've said to you, Rose..." Aurora would say solemnly before she began to tug the ladder towards the center of the ring!

"If you get in this ring with me.....you'll be next! There won't be a sacrificial lamb for you to use next time!"

With those words and with both ladies' actions speaking for them tonight, Aurora would look to center the ladder in the middle of the ring and begin climbing her way towards righting the wrongs and atrocities Rose had sullied the lightweight division with! She'd begin climbing her way towards becoming LAW's first Double Champion!

[SuckerPunch]

Rose Gold pushed to her feet, unscuffed and uninjured. Lexy Alan had done her job beautifully... As she always did. There was no better valet in the wrestling business. A beautiful woman who was willing to give her all for her partner. And give it all she had. She was a husk in a bed of bent steel. Barely conscious and badly beaten... She'd never looked more lovely.

"I'm right here. I'm right here Lexy." She spoke softly, taking hold of her hand to guide it to her cheek. She nuzzled against it, letting Lexy's chilled hand feel the warmth of her cheek. She held it there as Lexy spoke. She held it there as the medical staff arrived. She held it there until she succumbed to her injuries and went still. She couldn't find the words to answer her back...

The medical staff began to load her onto the stretcher, but the Lightweight Champion glared at each of them as they moved her. A silent warning. Screw anything up, and she would find them. She crossed Lexy's arms gently over her chest and stepped back to allow them to lift her up and carry her off. Her fanfare was a cacophony of boos.

Rose Gold closed her eyes as Aurora barked at her from the ring. The weight of the moment appeared to weigh on the cruel blonde. She listened to Aurora's threats and for once was wordless. Her head hung as she flexed her right hand, empty without Lexy's within it. Aurora had moved the ladder to the center of the ring and was beginning to ascend. And if the audience looked closely at Rose Gold they'd notice a single... Quirk of her lip as it curled.

She whipped around to face the ring. Aurora was halfway up the ladder. She leaped onto the canvas, grasping the ropes. Aurora was ascending quickly. Rose Gold bent her knees, and then jumped, landing upon the top rope. She sprung off of them, soaring through the air towards the ladder in the center of the ring. She landed gracefully upon the ladder like she'd done it a hundred times! Her hands braced upon the top cap of the ladder, fingertips touching Aurora's.

They'd arrived at the summit at exactly the same time! Eye to eye. Nose to nose. "Oh honey, they don't matter. There are always more lambs." So close that it was impossible for Aurora not to notice her self-satisfied grin. She was happy with what she'd done. No, it was more than that. She was proud of herself. She could see it in her eyes. In the infinite universes, there was not a single one where Rose Gold wouldn't have sacrificed Lexy Alan. And she'd do it again. A hundred times.

She stood up, straight back. Staring Aurora down at the top of the ladder. Her left hand reached out to take hold of Aurora's hair, grasping the base of her fro. Her smile widened into a shark's grin. So wide that she could see the evil woman's pointed canines. "It's really the wolf you ought to be focused on."

[winner3]

Even as she was tended to and carted away on a stretcher by LAW's medical staff, Lexy's belief in Rose- her love for the woman she believed to be at the top of world never waned. The referees and staff whom Alan had spent the better part of her run as Rose's manager abusing and badmouthing were now huddling around her to offer medical support and attention. And in Lexy's mind, as she lay there hurting, barely able to perceive what had just happened, barely able to register the raucous cheering of the crowd and the wreckage of the steel and debris around her - in Lexy's mind, each and every one of these staff persons could shove off!

"Annngh! Rar! Ungh!" In her pained stupor, Lexy grunted while swatting weakly at the doctor's and production crew that approached her. But as she lay there half naked, writhing on pain, caramel bust nearly popping out of her tight top, the hand of her lover found her own!

Instantly, Lexy's breathing slowed. She let out a cute and audible gasp. The greenette stayed her hand. She was soothed by her lover's touch.

"R-R-Rose...." Alan chirped ever so softly. Pain was evident in her tone of voice.

"I love....." Her sentence trailed off as her lips moved, but no words left them. Lexy's eyes glazed over before fluttering ever so slightly. After a quick succession of blinks, she slumped onto her side amidst the wreckage of the vent ladder. To the two of them, this was a tender moment. But Aurora's words, the crowd's reaction, the commentators at the desk, they chimed in all too soon as Lexy was hauled to the back! The Lightweight Champion willingly, on a dime, literally made her lover take the fall for her! And yet she held Lexy in her arms ever so tenderly now, before helping deposit the show hostess onto the stretcher.

Lexy lay there with her eyes still occasionally fluttering. Rose slowly and gently folded her arms. As if there was some silent understanding between both women that things had to be this way! That it was better this way!

The whole charade actually managed to draw ire from The Galaxy! A trait seldom seen from the luchadora! Not for one moment did Estrella or anyone else buy into the idea that the champion treasured the hostess who was now a casualty in this match! No, in Aurora's mind, she knew the one and only thing that mattered to Rose Gold! And right now, she was climbing up after it! As the cameras focused in on Lexy, who would be taken out of commission for who knows how long, the tag team champion made her way up the ladder in the middle of the ring, just as she said she would! And it didn't take time for Rose to meet her there!

Fans everywhere gasp at Rose Gold's sudden burst of agility! The Lightweight Champion vaulted onto the top rope with a burst of speed! She springboarded off the top rope and onto the ladder! Rose did this with such grace and such poise that the ladder barely rocked at all. It was darn near one fluid motion! The Sinister Siren had the skills to back countless boasts, even now in the heat of the moment with her lover on the shelf! Her fingertips touched Aurora's! And her words made the masked lightweight's brow furrow with indignation!

That twisted smile. That countenance that screamed she would do it again in a heartbeat. This was the woman that meant to proudly represent LAW's Lightweight Division as its champion! This was the woman who claimed to succeed in spite of others despite using and abusing anyone and everyone in much the same way she just did Lexy!

Rose's slight height advantage was even more pronounced at the top of the ladder. With evil intentions in her piercing, golden stare, she grabbed the hair tie at the base of Estrella's afro! Her grip forced Aurora's head and neck slightly backward, forcing Aurora to lock eyes with her! The Galaxy Cat grit her teeth as she stared into the the depths of Rose Gold's depraved soul! This woman stood alongside Aurora, herself, as a champion in perhaps the greatest wrestling promotion of all time! And the two of them couldn't be any more diametrically opposed to one another if they tried!

"You call yourself a wolf.....?!" Aurora growled through clenched teeth! She forced her head closer to Rose's, fighting against the grip Rose had on her hair!

"When really, you're just slime!!! Utterly spineless!!!" Aurora's forehead would meet Rose's own! Once to make her point, and a second time to try and knock the champion off balance with a Headbutt!

If Estrella's blow connected, she'd take a step higher on the ladder! And with every bit the same skill and quickness Rose moved with seconds ago, Aurora would look to step off the top rung of the massive steel ladder and flip over the Lightweight Champion! Aurora would look to grab hold of Rose's waist on both sides to try to send her hated rival back down to the canvas with a Sunset Flip Powerbomb! Much to the crowd's approval!
