Death to the Old Guard

[Fairy Dragon]

As her music played, the infamous emblem of the Belly Queen appeared on screen, letting the crowd know she was making her appearance again. Fresh off her victory over Kate at We Are LAW in what many hoped would spell her doom only for the Belly Queen to surprise her challenger in the closing minutes. Kate had fallen and Kyoko rose for the 10 count to declare her the champion still meaning they had to get used to hearing her gloat even more. What was worse was that her gloating started to have less merit in their eyes, at least at first she was winning without any doubt that she was the better woman, but the use of her group was starting to make people question if Kyoko even believed her own words or had confidence in herself anymore. What couldn't be denied was that she was as cocky as ever and the big smile on her face when she appeared carrying both belts made it clear how she felt.

As usual for her entrances the belts were around her waist, at the same time. Giving the crowd little of her prized abs to look at as she came with her hands raised proudly and a cocky strut to the ring. Unlike most of her entrances more people came out with her, including one face that no one would've expected in her former arch-nemesis Da Xia.

Spoiler

Da Xia stayed to the right of the Belly Queen while her left side was also occupied, this time by her long time ally, one who had been working with Kyoko since the wargames match years ago in Tara Jaegar. Wearing the Knight themed gear that she used to visually pledge her allegiance to the Belly Queen, and she'd proven herself to honor that vow now after helping Kyoko defend her belt twice.

Spoiler

Finally behind them was one more member of the group, and the one who'd become more known recently due to her constant presence around the Queen, she'd been removed from action for a little bit after the fight with Akane, but that ended when she arrived unexpectedly after Tara's fight with Kate and again when she also assisted Kyoko in dealing with the Combat Wombat. Wearing some new gear that seemed to tell everyone she was fully committed to Abdominion.

Spoiler

The quartet walked down to the ring and stopped right in front of the apron. Kyoko would take off her belts and hand one to Tara to hold, then passed the other to Da Xia to do the same. Then she'd point to the ropes, making Kirie move and enter the ring before she'd sit on one rope and pull open the other, making it easier for the 3 more seasoned veterans to enter with less hassle. Kyoko would follow and do the same for her subordinates until they were all in the ring, taking a mic that a crewmember passed to them before Kyoko spoke. "Not that you deserve it, but I think it's time I addressed what happened at We Are LAW and what's been happening for the past few months. You've probably been thinking about this since what happened with Akane and especially after Kate. I'm here to clear the air because I want too." Kyoko said already getting boos just for talking. Even louder ones than usual after everything that happened. "When my dad, one of the greatest to ever do it wrestled, he did so by fighting injustice, making alliances to keep people from being hurt and fighting all of the growing stables and shoguns of wrestling all for you fans. That was tragically one of the biggest wastes of time he ever did, ever fighting for you're sake but his idea did have some merit. You see it's no surprise that wrestling is full of evil bitches and bad actors, some who take after my worthless grandmother and try to play with the rules or disrespect this great sport. They don't care for fairness or the thrill of a good fight they care about lining their pockets and taking every shortcut to the top. Thanks to my dad he stopped some of that and he did it by making pacts and vows of honor with men as noble as him, when one of them was in danger they would ride to their defense, they looked out for one another and made sure none of them were ever outnumbered in a fight. Not because they needed the numbers! Oh no, they could've dealt with those problems by themselves but they knew that it was pointless, the only way you make people learn their lesson is to not just fend them off but crush them with overwhelming force. My dad was a visionary! And I of course followed his example." Kyoko said turning around to Tara.

"Tara needs no introduction, the Belly Stretcher who can make any girl in this world tap out and with thighs that can kill! Look at those things!" Kyoko joked before giving Tara's thigh a nice slap. "She's a star who will one day be a champion in this league and any league she sees fit, and she was one of the first to agree with me that people like us needed to band together before we got jumped because we don't kiss the right asses or pretend to be anything else than who we are. No one in this company has had my back more than this ass kicker. We fought in the first Wargames together, we train together, when I won the title she was the first one to acknowledge me as the champion which makes her better than everyone else in this arena who's not in this ring!" Kyoko shouted, getting a hostile reaction right back that she embraced without a single problem. "Certain people will call her a sellout, or a pawn but let me assure you Tara is her own woman and unlike most of your fake heroes, she has ambition, real ambition. She wants what I have, and when she feels she's ready to take it, she'll face me and say 'Kyoko! I want to go one on one with the best wrestler in LAW, please grant me this honor' and I'll do it because she's a woman with real standards and she deserves it." Kyoko finished before she turned over to Kirie.

"Some of you were surprised to see her show up, maybe you don't know who she is but for those out of the loop her name is Kirie Kato, a Young Lioness who I've taken under my wing, one of the most knowledgeable and hardworking trainees to ever do it. If she learned things the way you fools would want her too she'd be great in a decade, with me teaching her she'll be running over all of your favorites within a year!" Kyoko boasted, Kirie smiled and bowed, and for the first time got boos. The crowd had her back when she was faced with the evil Tia Harris but any support for Kyoko's faction after that feud went out the window with their actions near the end of it. "Wow, jealous much?" Kirie muttered, then giggled at seeing the crowd's hostile reaction, but after being thrown off an ambulance she didn't care, the fans support didn't save her then, Kyoko's training and Tara's encouragement did, so from now on that's who she was siding with. Of course Kyoko then turned her attention to the last person, Da Xia. The crowd could see some tension still lied with the former enemies, since Da was only on her side by being forced into it, they expected Kyoko to humiliate her, that was until Kyoko put an arm over Xia's shoulder.

"Here was your best hope of anyone stopping me. If I won the Middleweight championship when she was still in action she'd be first in line because here is someone who's not a coward. She's not afraid to take out whoever she doesn't like." Kyoko said, then she shocked the crowd even more when she gave Xia a peck on the cheek. "8 years ago when we met, Xia didn't give a damn about punching good, or having good endurance and taking a punch, or about out-wrestling opponents, she cared about humiliating them. Then I humiliated her...once. She lost her shit, and you wanna know what the greatest part was? She started to care about how hard she hit, how good she was at taking a punch, how well she could outwrestle an opponent. The result? She's the only person I walk into a match against where I'm not sure about the outcome, where I question if I can handle her punches. She matches me blow for blow and pound for pound everytime I get in the ring with her. My problem wasn't that she was trying to kick my ass, my problem with her was that she was being fake about it, fake smile, cheating, pretending to please you losers! I hated it, and I was prepared to do anything to expose her and I did and you know what? Now she's better than ever, because now the biggest threat to her is gone and the biggest threat to me is gone. Look at any of our matches and ask, if that's what we could do against each other, what's the worst we can do against every....one....else? If that thought doesn't terrify you, you're a damn idiot." Kyoko boasted, looking at Da again and giving her a pat on the back. "Da, I know you're still angry with me. At me and Tara for opposing you at Wargames, but one day you'll understand that it was for your own good. When you see what we accomplish together, you'll thank me, you will. We'll be unstoppable as a team." Kyoko assured, before finally turning back to the crowd and getting serious again.

"This is Abdominion's true purpose, to eradicate all the weakness and disrespect we see in this sport that we love and protect each other from facing it alone. That's why we did what we did to Akane and Tia. They thought they could use the numbers game to beat us, they thought they were meaner than us. What happened when they tried that? We showed them they were nowhere close to our level, and by the end Akane and Tia were crying and bawling as we tortured them and made them feel a real beatdown. What you called barbaric, was what we called wrestling justice. Let everyone know if you're not capable of standing up on your own two feet to win singles gold, you don't deserve it! And I could've beaten Kate by myself, let's be honest she was coughing and wheezing after my spear 4 minutes in, but I was too nice. I let her hang around because she was rocking a nice 12 pack, I have my vices I admit. I tried to get her to see that she was being disrespectful. The way she looked down on Tara just because she got lucky in their match? The way she called Kirie a lapdog? We couldn't let that stand, that's the kind of disrespect my grandmother preaches, and that loser is so outdated no one born past the 90's follows her teachings so Kate had to be taught a lesson in respect before her mouth got her in serious trouble. The worst I did was beat her up, the next group she tries that with might break a hand or a leg, and then she'll sit there crying wondering why she didn't listen to the Belly Queen's words. So Kate! You're welcome and I do hope you learned your lesson." Kyoko finished blowing a mocking kiss to the camera to a disapproving crowd as Kyoko continued to show how little she cared.

[TheManVan]

Out with Kyoko in what Da Xia considered as a Rah Rah cheer, she felt highly uncomfortable. Which was a weird situation in of itself, Da Xia had never been shy about being in front of people, numerous times she had been naked and committed acts of the sexual nature with a crowd watching only heightened her own excitement as she won. But this was different, this was entirely different.

She was not the owner of the spotlight, she was a background piece for someone else. And that someone else was someone she had hated and quite possibly still did. Kyoko Akan.

With a rich history of violence between them, she risked it all to finally put Kyoko underneath her heel once and for all. Unfortunately, her risk backfired and now she was a part of Kyoko's group and having never been a part of a ensemble, she felt radically out of place. As Kyoko spoke, all Da Xia could do was watch from behind, watching the Middleweight Champion by her back which to Da Xia had always been a sign of opportunity to strike.

Having to stand there and have Kyoko's back rather than take it only added to the to anxiousness in her.

Kyoko ran down her accomplishments since claiming the belt, who she had beaten while throwing salt in their faces before moving on to Tara and lighting her up with praise.

Then it came to Da Xia.

Her body tensed, an instinctual reaction at this point whenever her and Kyoko got within touching distance of each other after multiple ceaseless wars after another. But rather than with barbed words that she had become used to, Kyoko instead continue to use far more kinder words and even highlighted a lot of Da Xia's strengths. It also felt pretty good to hear Kyoko call her the only shot at beating her, even if it was in retrospect by this point.

A smile curled on her face, her smugness unable to be hidden with the completely unbiased praise before the aforementioned Wargames was brought up. There was a brief pause on her face, remembering how that chaotic battle turned out and one could say that's when Da Xia's fortunes completely reversed. The thought permeated in her brain as Kyoko continued to go on with her speech, blocking it out as Da Xia was left in her own devices until the end.

As Kyoko gave a kiss to the camera, Da Xia quickly approached her, snatching the microphone out of her hand before storming off where she came from. "All right. Hold on. There's things I need to get off my chest for once!" she let out into the microphone, a bit of seething with remembering all of the important battles she had lost to Kyoko enroute to Abdomination. "You and me? We have fought all over the world, in all sorts of battles and throughout all of that we never once been on the same side...until now." she said, her emotions were getting the better of her, strewn across of her face with her eyes widen and lips quivering with trying not to break out into a horrid scowl.

"Now. I've been trying to keep myself together, just trying to wrap my head around this idea...following YOU of all people! The person I've never forgiven for most of my career! And now? Now?! I have to just stand here and put on a smile just because you say nice thing? It makes me sick!" Now that she had seized her moment, she was letting out all of her pent up thoughts even if she was bounded to Kyoko by contract as she brought up her finger, pointing at Kyoko to emphasize her next statement.

"You. I hate you...So much! You're such a piece of shit!" she seethed, but her tirade came to a quick end as she took a deep breath.

"But... you are right. If we could go to war against each other, what chance does everyone else have against us? And they always say, 'If you can't beat em, join them.' Well I tried to beat you. And....I couldn't do it. So now, I got your goddamn back!" she emphatically shouted into the microphone, patting on shoulder roughly out of adrenaline rather than anything else. "So it doesn't matter who stands in your way, it doesn't matter how many stand in your way. I am going to make sure that every one of them kiss the dirt in front of you!

Tara was smiling proudly as she waltzed down the ramp along with her team mates, the elites of the Abdominion. Herself, the knight, Kyoko's right hand woman, Kyrie Kato, Kyoko's apprentice and someone Tara herself had a role in training, Da Xia, the former nemesis and greatest rival of Kyoko, and of course... The queen herself, Kyoko Akan. The middleweight Champion, the Belly Queen, and her boss, someone she was glad to call that. Entering the ring and standing proudly at the woman's side as she began to speech. Laying out the specifics of what their goals as a group were. Not only in the short term, but the long term, and the roots of said vision. Starting with Kyoko's father, but developing and growing into a vision that suited her, and the rest of them, and of course the future of LAW itself.

Then Kyoko turned her attention to the members that made the group, starting to praise her first. Making Tara beam proudly as she leaned back and puffed her chest out proudly, flexing her thigh after Kyoko slapped it, looking out among the crowd as Kyoko continued to sing her praises. It was always somewhat unspoken that Kyoko saw her highly and Tara knew that, but at the same time it was still nice to hear it being said aloud. Even then however her eyes still widened when Kyoko essentially said that she would grant her a title match whenever she wished it. It was... shocking to say the least, since she always assumed that challenging Kyoko for either title was somewhat taboo. But now that it was on the table.. it was something she'd consider. It naturally had a bit stunned until suddenly, after singing the praises of both Kyrie and Da Xia.

The latter of whom suddenly snatched the microphone from Kyoko. Locking back in on what was happening Tara would immediately step closer to Kyoko, fists clenched and eyes narrowed towards Da Xia. They had been enemies before, and even though they were allies now, she knew there was always the possibility that the Chinese Bully would try and double cross Kyoko, and if the woman said the wrong thing or made a sudden move... Tara would pounce. Luckily however Da Xia would soon prove her wrong. Pivoting suddenly and admitting she had been beaten and needed to join Kyoko, and that she would then back the Queen up and do what it took to preserve her reign. Smiling and nodding towards the pink haired wrestler Tara would approach her, and hold her hand out towards the woman, gesturing for the microphone and once handed it Tara would raise it to her lips.

"Kyoko... I don't want speak for you but Da.. that couldn't have been easy to admit, and while we don't have anywhere near the history with each other... I got you're back too." Tara said with a smile and nod before turning to the Queen. "Kyoko... I just wanna say thank you. Thank you for pulling me into this group and for being without question, the BEST middleweight champion of all time!" Tara yelled out to a loud chorus of boos from the fans but it didn't bother her at all. "With that being said... I will eventually take you up on that offer, but not until I'm sure that every last single disrespectful puke out there that thinks to challenge or disrespect you is put in their place.. At! You're! Feet!" Tara screamed out to more boos from the fans before holding the mic out to either Kyrie or Kyoko, if the youngling wanted to speak herself, or if Kyoko wanted to respond.

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko's boasting was eventually cut of by Da Xia getting involved and grabbing her mic, which confused the Belly Queen since she thought they were fine and she even saw her smiling when she was in the ring. She hoped that with time and praise, China's greatest export would come around and see why being on her side was much better, but the way she talked Kyoko could tell that she still held some resentment over everything the two did to one another. She sensed Tara getting ready to move in and put her hand up to halt her from doing so and to let Xia continue. She knew what it was like, it wasn't like Kyoko was fully behind it either, somedays she still looked at Da and clenched her fist remembering some injustice or another that she caused. So she wanted to give the former bully space to learn and see things her way...and smiled when it finally started to pay off. Da Xia affirmed her place at Kyoko's side and even let Tara take the mic to have her own turn at speaking. As expected of the Belly Stretcher she was full of praise for everyone here, having been the biggest supporter of the group and the one who helped Kyoko shape it into what it was now. Sure at first her morals clashed a little with Kyoko's on some things but for the most part she'd started to see things the Belly Queen's way over time and now she was prouder than ever of being involved and happy to know that she could one day be Kyoko's strongest challenge yet. That only left Kirie to speak if she wanted too, and when offered the mic by Tara she quickly took it.

"I don't think I can top those speeches and I'm not going to try. Instead I'll spend my time wisely by reminding people of this. For everyone who calls me a stooge and boos me for daring to support the mean old Belly Queen let me remind you of this. You know very little about me. No one knows how hard I worked to get a Young Lioness contract, or that when I worked with the trainers at the gyms they told me I should consider other options because I didn't look ready. None of you had an eye on the fact that when Kyoko agreed to train me alongside Tara that my skills improved and I could blow those same teachers away next time I met. The only thing you saw first was me staring down that behemoth Tia while she tried to rip me apart, and cheer when I fought her and had her running scared before Akane interfered. Even then what did she do to finally beat me? She had to throw me off an ambulance!" Kirie said shuddering at the painful memory of that experience. "Despite that my dreams that day were ones of future victories, and future titles because that day I proved I could be a wrestler. That I could have you eating out of the palm of my hands any day I wanted. But when I go home it's not you who has my back, when I was in the hospital no one was sending me get well cards, not a single one of you cared the moment I was off your tv. The only people by my hospital bed was the champion you see here and Tara, so you can tell me not to support people who have my back all you want, only a fool would listen and I'm too smart to be on your level." Kirie said getting another round of boos from the crowd before handing the mic back to Kyoko. The Queen was happy to see her team united and ready to kick ass like they'd been doing.

"The one thing I'm glad is gone forever is that fake cute face you used to do, I prefer the honest Da Xia who wants to rip my head off than the smiling faker. Maybe we'll never like each other, but when everyone else is at our feet that won't matter." Kyoko said nodding her head in appreciation of Da Xia's words. "Tara, unfortunately with a task like that it means we have a lot of work to do before that happens. But it warms my heart to know you're up to it, because this belt is going nowhere and soon everyone will fall in line under Abdominion. They won't have a choice." Kyoko reached out to give Tara a pat on the shoulder and then turned and did the same to Kirie. "Kirie, sometimes you're a little too chipper for my liking but you asked me to train you and when I said yes that was the moment that I was going to do everything in my power to make you a star, and that includes having your back and making sure that you don't end up in another hospital bed, with the 4 of us we should start putting people who keep trying to test us in hospital beds." Kyoko said leaning back against the ropes. "I hope all of you are taking a good look at the future, we're the ones who are going to be running LAW from now on, and no one's stopping us." Kyoko finished, ready to clear out now that everyone had gotten a chance to speak and that the fans knew who the new rulers of the company were.

Before the glazing session of Kyoko and her posse could continue forward a new theme music would burst through the arena's speakers, confusing fans at first until the name and clips on the entrance screens revealed a familiar name with a new theme. Something that would on its own be exciting for the fans, but the fact that it was being used to interrupt a champion as arrogant and contemptuous as Kyoko? Even better. For within moments the person coming through the entrance curtain was none other than Aella Midori. Mother of Alizeh Midori, who having been one of Kyoko's past defenses meant things would surely be getting interesting, especially since Aella was dressed for a fight.

Spoiler

Holding a microphone in one hand and a metal pipe in the other Aella would rest the latter over her shoulder as she strutted down the ramp towards the ring, a calm and stoic look on her face as she did so before entering the ring smoothly from the side that was furthest from Kyoko and her lackies. Once inside Aella would raise the pipe in the group's direction to indicate she was ready if they tried anything, but she made no move to attack... Yet. Instead she'd raise the microphone up to her lips. "Well now... Sorry to disturb this... pep rally of yours? Or whatever the hell this was, but unlike you, I have important business to discuss with you Kyoko, specifically... that..." Aella said while gesturing to the middle weight title belt around Kyoko's waist with the pipe.

"Now I'd like to discuss this civilly, woman to woman, something I'm sure you understand... so if you could call the dogs back and maybe have them exit the ring, it'd be most appreciated." Aella said very intentionally taking a dig at Tara and the rest of abdominion, but showing no fear as she did so, making Tara growl and clench her fists, tempted to attack but she held herself back... waiting for Kyoko's command before acting.

[Fairy Dragon]

The new music playing stopped the celebration of the team short, leaving them to sit there and wonder what would happen next. Kyoko quickly got an answer when a name popped up on the screen making the Belly Queen angry when she knew who was interrupting her. The name Midori was bad enough, it was the other one who managed to be more annoying than her. To be fair, from the stories she heard from her mother to her endless support of Ayane she had a headstart over Alizeh in reasons to be pissed off at her. The way she entered the ring with her pipe as if that would scare them off if they attacked was almost laughable, but Kyoko raised a hand letting the other 3 know that they were waiting for now to let Aella talk. Aella didn't waste much time either, telling Kyoko she wanted the belt by pointing at it to get the crowd excited at the thought of them clashing. When she took a dig at the group she could sense their anger and had to look back to make sure they understood that they were not to attack.

"You seem to be under the mistaken belief you can make any requests or offers during my State of company address. Especially when you stand among those of us who are Queens and future champions, so let me make this clear and tell you now that no one's going anywhere. Anything you can say to them you can say to me." Kyoko said backing up her team before she smiled. "I'd like to say that this is where Alizeh got that arrogant ego of hers to do or think the same, if I didn't know that it came from a certain old hag that you still worship. How is Alizeh by the way? I'd hate to think I scared her off too early, Tara and Kirie both wanted the chance to kick her ass after she tried to help Kate steal my belt. Right girls?" Kyoko said, getting a laugh from Kirie. "That's right. Her and Kate would be great practice before I take on a real star." Kirie said while Kyoko would grab the Middleweight belt from her waist and raise. "Now about this. I don't know what makes you think you have what it takes, I already proved the old generation was beneath me when I beat Alaina in those challenges. Woman of the past such as yourself wouldn't beat me in your prime, now you have too much mileage to even be seen from my rearview mirror once I burn past you so why even embarrass yourself by asking?" Kyoko asked, taunting Aella and trying to take away her confidence.

[Bare]

Having entered the ring and making her intention known Aella remained on guard just in case, knowing that Kyoko and her posse may not be able to contain themselves for long with her challenging them. But Kyoko kept a tight enough leash on the girls to keep them from attacking her.. yet. But Aella wasn't foolish enough to drop her guard just in case. Lowering the pipe as the Belly Queen made it clear her stable wouldn't be leaving the ring she would give a lackadaisical shrug in response.

"Very well, if you don't feel confident enough to talk with me without them nipping at your heels I understand." Aella said casually in response before allowing Kyoko to finish her statement. One in which she insulted many people and ideals close to Aella and while she didn't show it on her face she was definitely getting angry, but she would channel that anger in a way that would be beneficial.

"You know... I always thought it funny how much you talk badly about your grandmother and vice versa how disappointingly Ayane talks about you in turn, as if you're such polar opposites when in fact, you're JUST like eachother." Aella said in a slow, calm gate, walking side to side as she spoke before continuing. "Just as cruel, just as tenacious, just as driven and ambitious but you know, there is ONE big difference... and that's how damn sloppy you are Kyoko." Aella said her tone going from a light casual as if she was bantering with friend to a rigid and cold.

"Say whatever you want about Ayane, she lied, she cheated, she was cruel, many things... But she was focused, calculated, and even when she used help to win she was smart about it. She knew when to use help, better yet she was smart enough even manipulate and use former rivals, which kudos, you took that lesson to hear at least." Aella said, gesturing to Da Xia in particular before continuing.

"But you're so damn reckless with them and already so damn dependent on them to win that they had to get involved in most of you're matches." Aella said with a almost disappointed shrug."Which is sad, cause I know you're capable of doing it without them, or at least, being smarter about it, but I think perhaps the pressure of defending the title got to you, maybe you're very near defeat at my daughter's hands caused you to lose some confidence, who knows." Aella said mockingly with a shrug before continuing.

"What I do know... is that regardless of me being in the old generation or not... I'm certainly capable of kicking you're ass and ripping that title out of you're hands, ESPECIALLY if its just you and me, understand?" Aella said while taking a few steps closer to Kyoko until they were eye to eye. "Besides... I have a more personal reason to beat you into pulp besides just wanting to add a title to my collection." Aella breathed out into the mic with enough heat to mimic dragon fire as she glared just as heatedly into Kyoko's eyes.

[Fairy Dragon]

Aella stayed where she was, but couldn't force the group to leave since this moment was about them while the green haired bitch tried to make it about her and her desire for what Kyoko had. The more she talked the more Kyoko started to regret telling Tara to back off, since if anyone needed to get a beating it was starting to sound like it was her. She was trying to imply that her and Ayane were a lot alike, something that would probably make the both of them hurl, and then she said worse by implying that Ayane was better than her due to not being sloppy. As if the Belly Queen was careless or did anything recklessly, she hammered that point by claiming that she needed her girls to help her all the time, claiming that Alizeh spooked her into needing others for help like some...coward! Kyoko was seconds away from telling her team to attack until Aella got close and made Kyoko reconsider, she wouldn't need their help yet and if she asked this bitch would martyr herself and try to use it as proof of what she was saying instead of it being the justified ass kicking that came from being an Ayane puppet.

"I can see my grandmother's brainwashing really stuck to you if you think she was focused, I'm starting to see why Alizeh was so stupid, with a mother like you being her guide she didn't stand a chance at growing a proper brain." Kyoko said staring Aella down while the rest of the stable stayed away for now. "Let me remind you that the first time I ever got help in a match was when someone thought they could use help of their own, if you expect me to treat losers and cheaters with fairness like before you have another thing coming. The days of tolerating people like her are gone. Unlike Ayane who embraced those kinds of people and used her cheating to overcome one foe who actually could kick her ass..." Kyoko said refuting the idea that she was anything like her grandmother. "The fact is no one's capable of kicking my ass, so why don't you get out of here and stay behind everyone like the rest of the older generation should. You had your time, and you have no place at the top when I'm around anymore. Especially ones like you." Kyoko spat, staying close to Aella to remind her that she was dealing with the best Middleweight champ that has ever been and ever will be.

[Bare]

While Aella didn't take her eyes off Kyoko she made sure to not also lose sight of the ladies flanking her. At any moment the Belly Queen could give a signal for them to attack or they could simply lose patience and disobey they're leader. Either way the Queen of the Skies wasn't going to take any chances as she focused back on Kyoko as she began trying to rebut Aella's words, with the older woman doing her best to not roll her eyes at the impudent and disrespectful nature but at this point she knew that was just who Kyoko was. But she was going to be the one to humble her.

"You say you aren't like her but every word youn speak, you only show how similar you two are... Only you inherited all of Ayane's WORST qualities. But at this point that's neither here nor there... The fact of the matter is you cheated my daughter out of a title, you beat her down and you intended to do worse... then you tried to do the same to her fiance..." Aella said in a low voice while the crowd waited with baited breath as she calmed herself down.

"Me and Alizeh have had an agreement, not to interfere or get involved much in each other's business in LAW, to let each other be independent and do as we liked... But I can't and won't let what you did to her go unanswered. So let me be absolutely clear Kyoko.. yes I want you're title, and yes I want to humble you a bit... But I want to beat you for what you almost did to my family more than anything, age or generation be damned! I don't care if its my time, or you're time, I.. am going... to make.. you... hurt Aella said with a glare while now fully in Kyoko's face as she stared the woman down.

[Fairy Dragon]

Kyoko could've gone on forever about the ways Ayane was different from her, for one the fact that she was treating anyone who learned under her with any respect was big enough. She never heard the words good job once int he several years she was working with that witch so for some outsider to pretend she knew her own grandmother better than her made her want to rip the bitches head off and punt it in her daughters face. But what she kept going and then she really made her laugh. "Your daughter only got that match because of me. All the time she's been here and she only gets a title shot because I personally named her, no one cheated her out of anything I was just better than her. And Kate. So instead of trying to call me a cheat like your future dumb daughter-in-law maybe you should do what you do best for my granny and start kissing my ass and thanking me. At least I would actually be worth the praise." Kyoko spat back annoyed at Aella. Annoyed at her family really, she already knew Aella as the women who bullied her mom growing up and now she was trying to preach to her so she could get a title shot. It made her unreasonably angry.

"Last I checked you already had a chance, it wasn't at LAW true, but the fans here know enough about Gold Rush to see that you were one of 4 participants who tried to take what I had, and failed like everyone else does. I'll continue to do what I need to do to make LAW the place it needs to be and you can continue to work your way back up because like the rest of your loves ones you're in the back of the line Aella. You have to earn second chances." Kyoko said, smirking at Aella as she made it clear any chance of her winning gold or fighting Kyoko again was next to zero.
