Star Clash | Star Power vs. Kathleen Hendricks

[TickTock]

Standard Match
Standard rules apply. Match can be won by pinfall or submission

Kathleen was playing the role of rookie courting once more. It wasn't a role she was shy to, or one that was foreign to her. It was one that she had delved in a few times now in her time in LAW. And now, it was her task once more, this time to a young lioness by the name of 'Star Power', a strong-headed rookie who wanted to challenge the toughest competition she could to make herself better. A cute little strategy, but ultimately one that was foolish. A woman of her size and her skill-set didn't stand a chance against the Queen of Domination, and the only lesson she'd learn was to never punch so higher outside of her weight class, so to speak.



As her music hit, the crowd began to boo. They had seen this woman decimate too many fan favorites to have any sort of liking of her, even out of irony or mockery. It was just a chorus of hatred and dislike, and that suited Kathleen just fine. She walked out from behind the curtain, sleek and slim muscles glistening in the arena light, and her perpetually hate-filled gaze peering out into the thousands in attendance. They all wanted to see her lose, and she wasn't going to allow them the pleasure.

Walking down the ramp, the Queen ignored the jeers and mocking calls from the hideous idiots in the front row, her dirty paws reaching to try and get a grasp of her immaculate form. And she continued to pay them no mind, reaching the apron and climbing up, stepping inside and taking residence in one of the corners of the ring. Her arms slung over and back resting against the turnbuckle, her calculating glare then looked out towards the stage, to see her opponent enter. Kathleen actually hadn't even seen her opponent prior, or did any research.

Why should she? As if this rookie could give her a challenge.

Spoiler

Kimiko was overwhelmingly exhilarated by just the thought of her debut match starting in only a few moments! She didn't expect to get a match so soon after entering LAW. Her body was still sore from the past few days of intense training, but she couldn't even feel it now. She did a little research on her opponent, Kathleen, moments before she started preparing for the match. "She's more experienced, but I have strength and youth on my side." She assured herself. "If I want to win I'll have to wear her out. I can take whatever she can dish out!". She began to get nervous as she walked to the entrance, her heart beating faster and faster! The excitement and rush of the muffled roar of the crowd was making it difficult for her to stay still. She just knew this was the beginning of her rise to the top!



Her music began to blare throughout the stadium and the crowd dramatically livened in response after Kathleens's entrance. Kimiko ran out onto the walkway waving to all the audience. Everything was like a dream in that moment as she worked her way to the ring. She felt an immense pressure from the crowd, this was definitely overwhelming all her senses. She was self-conscious about how she looked, she knew her outfit was too tight and rather revealing for her tastes in that moment as eyes were everywhere on her. She felt on display but also oddly at home with the admiration. Energized, she climbed up the steps and vaulted herself into the ring! She kept jumping and waving to the crowd. Once she embellished in working the crowd, Kimiko turned around to face her opponent and her demeanor instantly changed ever so slightly.

Kimiko knew Kathleen was a decade older, but she didn't look like it. Kimiko couldn't help but stare at Kathleen's wrestling attire showing all the intricacies and curves of her form. She knew Kathleen was cut from the pictures she saw of her before the match, but in person it was a completely different story. Kimiko trained her body at the gym, but she even thought her form looked pathetically marshmallow-soft in comparison to Kathleen's dark skin and intimidating steel-cut bulk. Kimiko snapped herself out of her tranced staring at Kathleen's body. "C'mon Kim, get your head in the game! You're gonna do great, she's just another fighter on your road to champ! Remember the strategy!" she thought to herself. Kimiko became confident and upbeat once again. But she just couldn't shake the ominous feeling from Kathleen's cold gaze.

Kimiko's Appearance

[TickTock]

Kathleen's expression didn't waver as she witnessed Star Power burst out. Already, she had the air of a rookie merely in the way she made her entrance, waving all around to the crowd and her eyes sparkling with awe. Which was understandable in her position, but when you had a calculating Queen eyeing her every move, it was just made blatant how new she was, that the sight of the crowds would make her so captivated. Even more so in the way she then looked at her opponent.

In LAW, you got rather used to seeing women half naked, if that. Kathleen had seen more boob windows and cameltoes than she particularly cared for in this ring, and the swelling breasts of Star's ready to burst out of her suit and navel pushing against the thin fabric did absolutely nothing for her. While the Queen's own form seemed to hypnotize the rookie, if only for a few moments before she noticed how blatant she was being. That just made the hatred in her gaze glimmer even further, toned arms flexing some. Kathleen knew that, in wrestling here, she'd be ogled.

That didn't mean she had to like, or tolerate it.

"Remember what I told you, little one," Kathleen spoke, her tone even icier than her eyes, yet also possessing a sense of class and superiority. As if she was talking to a peasant atop her throne. "Your spirit will break. And beg as you might, I will not stop until I am satisfied."

*DING DING!*

[TriggerBunny]

Kimiko could tell Kathleen was scouting her out, looking up and down her body. Calculatedly stripping her. Judging her. Her gaze was like that of a wild starved wolf, ready to tear into her delicate neck. Kimiko shook it off and reassured herself that Kathleen was just another stepping stone on her way to victory. "She's just looking for weak spots" she thought to herself. "Unfortunately for her, there's nothing weak about me!"

But Kathleen began to talk. And as she did, something changed. Kimiko was beaming with confidence right up until Kathleen's final words left her mouth. "And beg as you might, I will not stop until I am satisfied" continued to echo in her head. Then a sickening sinking feeling suddenly appeared in the pit of her stomach, a primal fight or flight feeling Kimiko never experienced before. Kimiko could sense the cold foreboding feeling of doom emanating from Kathleen, almost as if she was promising to painfully end her life.

But before she could dwell on it further, the bell suddenly rang a loud reverberating *DING DING!*

Kimiko was immediately caught off guard, stuck in her own head and not expecting the bell! She shoved her concerns to the back of her head and woke up to her situation. "NO!" she violently shook her head. She suddenly started charging forward towards Kathleen, reeling her arm back for a huge strike. "YOU will be the one begging! I WILL BE THE BEST" she screamed! It was abundantly clear that Kathleen had gotten under Kimiko's skin.

[TickTock]

Kathleen would give the rookies of LAW some credit; at least they knew how to hide their fear. She knew it was inside them, deep within, yet they bottled it up and hid it. That credit wasn't something she could give Star Power. She was wearing a mask, yet her fear was all too visible in her eyes. A few words was all it took to make her heart plummet down into her stomach, and it told the Queen that this match was already over. Fear is a good motivator at times, but only if you knew how to use it. And with this being this young lioness's first ever match? There was no chance she had a single skill that'd make that terror clawing within her any sort of benefit.

And as that bell rung, Kathleen's suspicions were confirmed. Violent yelling and a blind charge in wasn't going to do her any favors. While the ring was smaller than it seemed looking from the outside, that didn't mean the masked woman's charge replicating that of a chicken without its head was taking anyone by surprise. The Queen easily sidestepped that attempt at a clothesline, getting to the back of Star, and waiting for her to turn around.

And meet the palm of Kathleen's hands crashing against her cheek for a slap! One of utter disrespect and mockery, not even showing enough respect for her opponent as to go for an actual knockout blow. "I will accept your pleads for mercy if you give them to me now--on your knees." A rare offer of mercy from the Queen of Domination after that strike, her calculating gaze staring harshly at the face of the smaller woman. Offering her one last chance at escape before it was all too late...

[TriggerBunny]

At one moment Kimiko was about to strike Kathleen, but then everything immediately became blurry. The side of Kimiko's head felt numb, but then the agonizing stinging pain struck as she stumbled away uncontrollably from the hit. The crowd collectively gasped thinking Kimiko was already out. Kimiko grasped at her face with both hands, letting out a sharp scream.

Despite it only being a slap, Kimiko felt like she was hit by something much more serious. Any harder and that sudden strike might've brought her down to the mat! It took her a while to regain her footing. She was obviously rattled by the unexpected impact, already starting to instinctively cry. She knew she was wide open with her back towards Kathleen, but was too occupied to change that. "-On your knees." she heard Kathleen say in a cold foreboding tone.

Kimiko's legs began to buckle as tears uncontrollably dripped off her face. Kimiko could tell that sinking feeling in her gut wanted to return so badly and have her fall to the mat, but she wasn't letting it. She knew she had to move. She turned around stumbling to face Kathleen. Kimiko knew that if she tried to rush in again that she'd likely end up cold on the mat if not worse. She had to fight smarter, she had underestimated Kathleen before and can't afford to do so again. "That was a lucky hit..." Kimiko said with a noticeable tinge of pain, her face a bright red from the impact. She then shifted her legs and brought up her arms, adopting a more staggered wrestling stance. "But you won't make me give up that easily!!" she exclaimed.

[TickTock]

This display might've been the most pathetic Kathleen had ever seen. One slap to the face, not even the hardest one that she could throw, and the masked woman was sent stumbling and screaming. It looked as though that was a devastating attack, when it was meant to be an entirely disrespectful one--not something that had her seeing stars. The Queen saw those legs buckle and those tears began to fall down from her face, and snorted. It seemed that this starlet had highly overestimated her skill-set, and upon seeing that red face turning to face her, she was expecting the most earnest of apologizes...

... but that isn't what happened. This bitch, practically sobbing after a single hit, was wanting more. Her stance was honestly sad to look at, and the Queen--with a massive amount of mercy--didn't engage once again. She merely stared a hole through Star, to question if this was truly what she wanted. And if Star didn't back down... "Very well. It's your funeral."

Rather than engage that stance with a grapple, Kathleen instead ducked herself down and charged in. Her shoulder aimed to slam against the soft belly of the shorter foe for a tackle, and shove her backwards until her back hit one of the ring's corners! "I will accept no pleas now. I hope you're prepared for what that entails," the Queen snarled, backing up after that charge to leave Star in the corner, before running back in, and swinging her arm for a clothesline across her chest.

[TriggerBunny]

Kimiko witnessed Kathleen suddenly bolting for a tackle aimed at her midsection! Kimiko expected to bait out a charge from her opponent, but Kathleen's sudden and incredible momentum even caught Kimiko off-guard. She panicked trying to dodge, but her weak legs just couldn't move fast enough! Kimiko knew she was going to get hit, and it was going to be brutal. She regretted not begging for Kathleen's mercy. Too little too late.

Kathleen slammed her hard shoulder into Kimiko's soft unprotected stomach, burying it so deep into her gut it practically touched her spine! As it connected, Kimiko experienced that terrible feeling of incredible pain from the blow combined with exhaustion from having all her air ripped out of her lungs. Her body was forced to contort around Kathleen's unyielding steel body, Kimiko's legs being forced off the ground. The way it tore up her insides, Kimiko might as well have been rammed by a truck. Kimiko was launched back, she slammed into the turnbuckle. The collision was so violent that her body bounced off from the impact! It felt like Kathleen mercilessly tore apart her delicate unguarded insides. Kimiko was in unbearable pain, more harsh than anything she'd experienced in her life, and would've screamed her lungs out at that moment if she had any air left in her. Overwhelmed by agonizing pain, Kimiko's eyes rolled to the back of her head as she fell towards the mat.

But the Queen of Domination had more in store before Kimiko could hit the ground! Out of nowhere, Kathleen landed a devastating clothesline across her chest and forced her entire body to violently crash once more against the turnbuckle. Kimiko's pillowy soft breasts were effortlessly crushed to a pulp against Kathleen's thick arm! Kimiko somehow found the air to let out a scream of pure agony: "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!~". Slightly hunched with unstabl crossed knees she cupped her damaged chest with both arms, which were immediately starting to turn red and bruised. The hit was so vicious that it almost tore apart the thin stretched fabric of her suit covering her chest. Kimiko couldn't help but cry from the pain, tears now streaming down her face. She couldn't believe this was happening on her debut in front of the whole world. "Y-y-yy..." she tried to spit out, gasping for air. She looked up at Kathleen with fear and pain in her teary eyes "Y-you'll pay f-for th-that!..."

[TickTock]

Terror is to be expected when facing off against the Queen of Domination. Pain is to be expected. And both were racking poor Kimiko, as she was realizing rather quickly in that ring that she was nowhere close to ready to face someone the likes of Kathleen. She wasn't known for her strength, more so for her cruelty and unrelenting hatred driving her to inflict harm on her opponents in anyway she can. But against someone as frail and pathetic as this rookie, Kathleen's use of power was devastating. Her shoulder slammed against that hilariously soft stomach, providing absolutely no resistance to that charge. And then when the veteran slammed her opponent against that corner, the crunch that came from Kimiko's body meeting the turnbuckles was sickening.

It was likely that if her body was allowed to fall to the mat then, Kathleen could've easily pinned her. The whites of her eyes being the only thing visible made that seem likely, but the Queen saved her from such a fate with that hard clothesline. Squashing her tits against her own chest and slamming her back against the corner once more. Now, the rookie was reduced to wobbly legs and a sobbing face as she barely stood there, looking as helpless as a young rabbit looking up into the jaws of a hungered wolf.

"You wanted this," was the cold reminder that Kathleen gave Kimiko, as she reached out and got a handful of that flowing black hair. When dealing with a foe so frail, she knew she'd have to find a way to deal as much damage as she could without outright knocking the poor thing out. Giving that hair a yank, the Queen began to drag the stumbling rookie into the center of the ring, away from the sanctuary of the ropes, where she had to stand all on her own merit. "I want you to remember that. In every dream you have of this moment, in every passing thought, just know this--" Kathleen growled, her other hand coming up to grab the face of the masked woman's, fingers tightly pushing against her cheeks as her jaw rested in her palm. Eye to eye, a most heinous and vile stare. "--it is all. your. fault."

[TriggerBunny]

Kathleen just walked up and took a handful of Kimiko's raven hair in her grasp, and there wasn't a thing Kimiko could do about it. Kimiko stumbled to the ground as Kathleen dragged her like a child to the center of the ring, kicking and screaming in pain. "You wanted this" she said in a chilling tone continuing to drag her. Kathleen forcefully picked up Kimiko by the hair to match eye level. Kimiko had to muster the strength in her weak delicate legs to stand with Kathleen's pull in order to keep her hair from being ripped out. Kimiko's arms were still tenderly hugging her battered breasts, which were at this point starting to turn a bright swollen red, almost spilling out of her tight thin suit.

"Just know this--" Kathleen spoke in a low foreboding tone, looking at her directly in the eye. "It is all. your. fault."
Kimiko's heart stopped. Her vision went blurry as her eyes wandered. She retreated into her own head. "She's right..." Kimiko thought to herself. She knew she couldn't take on someone like Kathleen. She made a terrible foolish mistake. She started internally scolding herself "I acted like a DAMN ENTITLED BRAT! And for what?! To be dragged around and humiliated in front of the whole world at my debut?!?! Am I just abandoning my dream??" She stopped. That sinking feeling in her gut returned even stronger than before. "Am I?" Kimiko thought. Her knees began to buckle as tears involuntarily streamed down her face. "Just give up... submit... you're no match..." she coaxed herself, and she believed it. She gave into her desire. Her body fell limp, only held up by her head. Her arms left dangling helplessly at her sides.

Everything went silent. At that brief moment something snapped inside of Kimiko. "Am I seriously abandoning my dream?? My destiny?!" she thought. "From just a couple hits from a sadist bitch?!" Her mind started racing and overflowing with an absolute rage that was unbecoming of the mild-mannered Kimiko. Kimiko felt something deep inside of her, even deeper than her sinking feeling boiling up. Kimiko had one final thought "I won't give up... NO. MATTER. WHAT!"

Her fists suddenly clenched. But before Kathleen had any time to react, a sudden and powerful left jab impacted into Kathleen's core, rippling through and bending her toned exterior. The impact was so loud that it could be heard throughout the stadium like a gunshot. The audience went dead silent. Kimiko's fist impacted right under Kathleen's sternum, crushing her diaphragm and burying itself deeper. deeper... deeper... Kimiko could've sworn Kathleen had an astonished look on her face moments after impact, but she couldn't tell as it was quickly replaced by a powerful right hook to her jaw. She could feel Kathleen's strong jawbone warping around her fist and the sound of her teeth uncomfortably scraping against each other. Kathleen's grip of her head was released as she was sent stumbling, but Kimiko was already standing on her own.

Not moving from her position, Kimiko stood up straight. Looking down at Kathleen in a dead stare, Kimiko just coldly repeated what Kathleen said "Remember... You wanted this."

It was silent.

Then the crowd roared with thunderous applause! Kimiko's expression immediately changed, like she changed back into her usual innocent self. Kimiko's knees began to buckle again and her arms went uncontrollably limp, falling helplessly at her sides. Kimiko didn't know what came over her just then. She didn't even know she had punched Kathleen until she saw it with her own eyes. It was as if her body was acting on instinct or someone else was in control of her body. Was that her second wind or her last breath? Kimiko would have to figure that out later as she could barely move and it looked like Kathleen was angry. However, she knew one thing for sure: she wasn't giving up. no. matter. what.
