Bengal, the Blaze Tiger
Spoiler

The driver stopped on a pullout on the side of the dusty road. Bengal could see a switchback trail, leading up a wooded hill. "Uhhh...I was kinda hoping you could drop me off at the match, mate," the Tiger drawled, arching one eyebrow. "You know who I am, right?" The man's only response was to open the car door, and point grimly up the hill. Bengal pursed her lips, annoyed. "Yeah, whatever, you creep," she spat, as she slid smoothly out of her seat. "You can keep the engine running. I won't be long!"
Bold words from the Tiger. Unfortunately, her hike up the hill still took her the better part of ten minutes. Every time she thought she'd reached her destination, the trail turned around to head the opposite way, or revealed another, higher ridge in the distance. It was a hot summer day, and the air under the overhanging trees was humid and still. By the time she finally emerged into the hilltop clearing and spotted the cage, Bengal was already dripping with sweat, and badly wishing she'd brought along a water bottle.
When her manager had mentioned a "cage", Bengal had pictured what she'd seen in previous LAW matches: a grand, airy structure, with high walls that she could leap from or climb around on. But the cramped compartment in front of her looked more like something one would find at a dog kennel. There wouldn't even be room for herself or her opponent to stand at full height. The floor of the cage was filthy, covered with mud and windblown bramble. Strangely though, the fancy automated lock hanging from the door looked brand new. How long had this thing been sitting here?
Bengal wasn't sure. All she knew was, she wasn't getting into that death trap until she absolutely had to. As for stripping naked, however, that might actually be a relief, given the current weather. She kicked off her striped boots first, then shucked her arm sleeves. Her top and trunks came off next, revealing every curve of her lithe, muscular body. Bengal closed her eyes for a moment and let her arms drop to her side, letting a welcome breeze play across her exposed chest. It was only when she opened her eyes again that she noticed all the security cameras mounted in the trees.
Bengal's face flushed with surprise and embarrassment. That's right...her manager had mentioned that the match was being livestreamed, hadn't she? Of course, the marks all got to enjoy the action from the comfort of their air conditioning, while she had to hike out into the middle of nowhere. The Tiger huffed, clamping her arms across her chest instinctively, but soon realized there was no point. Anyone watching the stream was bound to see her whole body once the fight started. Better to play up her bravado, to act like she didn't care.
She forced a catlike grin. "Enjoy it, you stupid LAW-l Cows!" she called mockingly, speaking extra loud so the mics on the cameras would pick up every word. "This is the closest you'll ever get to some real pussy!" She held up both middle fingers and pointed them between her legs, thrusting her hips crudely at the nearest camera. Just then, she heard a twig cracking on the trail behind her. Bengal spun around with a snarl, claws raised, ready to face her opponent.
