[Void-Effect]

Backstage, Jackie Rose was making her final preparations for her match at Havana Carnival. Dressed in her wrestling leotard, she adjusted her gear before rolling her shoulders, making sure she was ready for what was to come.

Spoiler

A No Holds Barred match was certainly something to look forward to. Without the usual restrictions, there was a lot more room to get creative with how she handled her opponent. A small smirk crossed her face at the thought.

Once she was satisfied with her preparations, Jackie would make her way toward the entrance, waiting for her music to hit. As it began to play, she stepped out onto the stage, taking in the noise of the crowd as she made her appearance. She had been in the ring plenty of times before, so the atmosphere wasn't anything new to her. Still, there was always something satisfying about stepping out in front of a lively audience.

Making her way down the ramp, Jackie would eventually reach the ring and climb onto the apron before stepping through the ropes. She'd make her way toward her corner, glancing toward the entrance as she waited for her opponent to appear.

[Over mainyu]

It was her first PPV match, and it was going to take place on top of a carcass. Even the Spirit couldn’t deny that it was, at the very least, intriguing. And this time, she made sure she wouldn’t be facing a jobber. Her opponent would be a wrestler known for her violent tendencies, not too different from Ash’s behavior, except that the Dead Race focused more on horror.

She was in her “dressing room,” getting ready in her special outfit, one she saved for occasions like this. The match was going to be a No-Holds-Barred match, which she liked because it allowed her to use her entire arsenal and terrifying strategies. Joining her in the “dressing room” were her teammates Casval, Naomi, and Mephis, who had come to support her (besides, the flight deal was 2-for-1, so the whole group came).

After making the final preparations, the three gathered to say something to their rival from beyond the grave. “Ash, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Stay calm and give it your all,” said the Silver Warrior to encourage her. “Try to make it a spectacle with every move. Grab your weapons, and don’t forget to win.” The Ace of the Skies advised her, “Tear that bitch to pieces for me, will you?” the Violet Demon would ask. “Thanks, guys. I’ll try to do everything you asked and do my best to uphold the group’s reputation.” Just then, she received the signal to enter the ring.

Ash's Theme

But instead of going up the ramp, he headed to the side of the float (yep, the “dressing room” was actually just the interior of one of the floats), where he had a gray horse waiting for him to ride to the ring float further ahead. At a slow but steady trot, looking like an ultra-tomb raider to the beat of his song, he rode toward the float containing the ring. Upon reaching one of its sides, he slowly climbed aboard.

There he encountered his white-haired rival; she was almost the same size as him and went by the name Jack the Ripper because of how violent she was. Ash simply said in his terrifying tone of voice, “Good luck trying to gut a ghost, little girl,” before heading to his corner to wait.
