Twisted Tag Match: The P.D.S.M vs the Champions!

Like the fiend she was, Selina snuck up on the two squabbling teammates just as their argument was beginning to reach a new peak! Daisuke had actually begun to shove Lita, causing a surprised look on not only her, but Lina and Sion as well. It actually made Selina a bit sad to see such good friends begin to turn on one another in such a brutal fashion. It made for a good show, one Selina would have loved to sit back and enjoy. However, with her own partner down, and their reputation on the line, business would have to come before pleasure this time.

The best opportunity came as Lita actually shoved Daisuke back, but about three times harder! The poor woman actually stumbled and fell through the ropes! It would have been a rough landing, were it not for Sion quickly darting away from the announcement table and diving in to catch his darling team mate. The entire audience seemed shocked at the infighting between the champions, seeing such a famous team at one another's throats. It seemed only the referee had their mind on the match at hand. Lita would get a rather nasty shock herself when she suddenly felt Selina’s excited grip slip between her legs and hook onto her waistband! Suddenly, the world would flip upside down, and she would be rolled up for a pin!

“1! 2! 3!”

And just like that, the PDSM had snatched victory away from the Champions! It happened so fast, half the audience didn’t even see it! All they saw was Lita on the floor, and Selina jumping up to her feet, retreating back to her corner to help collect Día before the enemy forces could regroup.

“Hey Lita~ Thanks for your help! We would’ve has a much harder time without you, Sweet Heart~”

As if to rub salt into the wound, Selina would blow a kiss towards the fallen Champion before hoisting Día over her shoulder. With that, Selina would roll out of the ring and quickly make a retreat towards the back, letting the enemy team cannibalize each other with their anger and ire.

"No way! No fucking way!" Lina exclaimed when the match came to it's official end, not only at the result, but also how it happened. Lita had another reason to feel heated, having felt her wristband was illegally grabbed during the pinning process, though her argument was ignored by the referee, who felt it be wise to powder out while she was still in one piece. The ref did remain ringside and attempted to raise the winning team's arms up before they could make their get away, if that wanted it to happen of course.

Regardless if that happened or not, Sion slid in and checked on Daisuke, who was still on her butt and in shock. Lita fuming as she saw PDSM leaving, and demanded they get back in here for that parting gesture. As Lina was processing what all happened in that short period of time, Lita went back to her verbal jarring of Daisuke, adding blame for what just took place. Daisuke heard enough and was about to attack, but Sion got between them. He called out to Lina "A little help here?" To which Lina snapped out of her current mindset and quickly slide in to aid Sion in his attempt at keeping the peace.

Daisuke and Lita took turns calling each other out each other's faults, until Daisuke called Lita to the real weak link of the group after Lita hinted that Daisuke was just that. Lita was about to drill Daisuke upside the head, but Sion grabbed Lita's arm. Lita stopped her wind up and looked at Sion. Sion had a look on his face that told Lita he'd snap her arm like a twig if she went through with it. Not that he was defending Daisuke because of their relationship, but because he wanted this moment to end. He looked at Lina to get him three chairs. Without questioning him about it, Lina looked under the ring, and as luck would have it she managed to find three chairs. After she set them up in the ring, Sion told both Lita and Daisuke to sit, he did as well.

Sion talk them to start talking if they had something to say. Lita couldn't really think of anything else to add to what she already did, but she began to understand the severity of the situation. Daisuke was in the same boat, though Sion had something on his mind about things. While he doesn't blame either of them for what happened, he sees validation in both ladies' comments. Lita has struggled in tag matches, yet at the same time he has noticed sometimes Daisuke thinks too hard and it hinders her performance. He does not see those as weaknesses, however. He then asks Lina to bring him the belts, both of them. When handed them he takes long hard look at them before addressing those sitting with him. While officially Lita is not a holder of these belts, he does see her as someone who has the qualities of a champion. At last check, being a champion doesn't mean one's perfect. There's always room for improvement, and as she and Daisuke are aware, both he and Lina have had their own battles to overcome, both in and out of the ring. As far as Dai goes, no matter the fight, Daisuke's never been one to back down. While sometimes that has come back to bite them, he can honestly say there is nobody in this promotion's history that match her fighting spirit, nor match the respect this sports deserves that being called a champion requires. He then dares anyone in the locker room feels different to step through these ropes and say it to his face. All four of them have been through a lot, and as far as he's concerned, this is nothing they can't handle.

He points to the runway that the opposition left from, saying they, referring to the other team, may have won the battle, but should their paths across again, WE will win the war. It doesn't matter if it's those freaks, Kyo and Makie, if UKE comes out of retirement, any other tag combination or solo act, no one, and he means no one, comes into their house, and pushes them around. He then asks who's with him.

Daisuke and Lita look at him before looking at each other. While they both feel that they made need to talk more about this, Sion said enough to get through to them to kill their respective rage. Lita put her hand in, but there was some hesitation on Daisuke's part. Sion looked at her with concern, as did Lita. Lina asked her what was the matter. Daisuke hesitated a moment before telling Lina she's not putting hers in if Lina doesn't, grinning as she was making note that Lina was very much part of this as they all were. Daisuked then reached in, as did Lina.

Their hands soon went from being on top of one another to holding on together, to throwing the held hand pile in the air, holding it in the air until their theme music began to play, and held it in place for a few seconds or so before letting go. Sion tossed Daisuke one of the championship belts before each took to a corner. The battle might have been lost on this day, but as the group was displaying, they did not lose the war.

Heading up the runway, Sion mentioned something to the others about getting food somewhere and talking the rest of this out. No arguments here. They stopped on the stage and looked out towards the crowd, who despite seeing them blowup at each other, was still with them. Lita noticed the referee was close by and flashed her a quick grin. Lina looked at the others and motioned for hands again. They reached out, as the song was nearing it's conclusion "in". They locked up on "to", and threw them up unified on "sin", and held them there until the final note was hit, breaking off before disappearing behind the curtain.

It had been a few hours or so after the match between the P.D.S.M and the Champions was over. Rhein Kazahana had been too busy to actually keep track of the fight itself, as it managed to be scheduled right on top of a meeting she had made months prior. It was located downtown, and by the time she had gotten there and then came back, the whole thing was over. While she was interested in learning about the results of the match, her desire to get ahead on her workload far outweighed her curiosity.

She had been working for quite some time, so much so she didn’t even notice the time that had gone by. It was only when Rhein heard a gentle knock on her door that she even noticed more then two hours had passed by.

“Come in…”

The door quietly opened, and soon the doorway had Selina’s shy expression peeking through the crack, followed by Dia’s forgettable expression. A terrible thing to say, but somehow a thought that peeked into her head nonetheless.

“Ms.Rhein...we came to...tell you about...our match…”

Selina was always so quiet out of costume. Sometimes it was hard to hear her over crowds, but thankfully Rhein had a room all to herself. That and Dia usually spoke up for the both of them.

“Well, isn’t that thoughtful.” Rhein said with a smile. The two women entered her office and politely sat down in the chairs in front of her desk. Judging by the quick glances Selina was giving her and the smile on Dia’s face, Rhein had guessed it was probably good news.

“Well, why don’t you tell me what happened?”

“We won! Selina rolled up Lita quick and easy, then got the pin on her! Happened so fast they didn’t have time to think.”

“T...they got into...a fight, and I thought...maybe I could get in fast and easy…”

“A fight?” That wasn’t expected. Rhein had spoken with both Lina and Sion beforehand, and they seemed to be so focused on the family aspect of their group. She even got a call from Daisuke, in such a short time. They were clearly close knit in terms of relationships, but sometimes those were the ones that harbored the deepest grudges.

“How did that happen?”

“Lita...did something...to Daisuke…”

“Daisuke was winning, but Lita tagged her out in the middle of her “big push”. She must not have liked that.”

“They started to...push each other. Lita knocked Daisuke over, and then they started calling each other...names.”

“They really got vile, too...I thought they were going to tear each other apart.”

Rhein could only sigh as her team described some of the obscenities their foes screamed at one another. While Rhein was happy for the P.D.S.M’s victory, it was a bit disappointing to learn the Lina’s team was squabbling with each other. A decent rivalry would have made both teams marketable, and Rhein had planned on using this victory as a pathway to accomplish such a competitive spirit between the two teams. If there was infighting, knowing them, it was going to be a while before they were in any truly competitive form.

“Well, I am proud of you two and your win. You really gave it your all, and walked away with a win. I’ll call the Champion’s manager sometime soon and discuss with her how we should proceed, but for now, feel proud of what you two accomplished today. You made your mark in the company roster today, and that's no easy feat. You two should celebrate together if possible.”

The team seemed happy with their manager’s praise, and nodded their heads enthusiastically. With her permission, the two quickly began to make plans with each other to go out to eat somewhere, and possibly see a movie. Rhein sat back in her chair, smiling towards her team while trying to figure out how best to move forward and deal with Lina.
