Jessica Wright vs. Danika Gorski

Hardcore match: No disqualification. This match will be fought in a cage with weapons strewn throughout the ring. Win by pin, knockout, or submission.

Jessica adjusted the cufflink things she had on her wrists. This was the first time she would be debuting this new costume and she wanted to look good. It wasn't as if the fans marked her for her sartorial excellence but she still wanted to look nice. This new red, black and gold outfit wasn't quite as daring as her old one was but it was still pretty showy. Her boots were zipped and she dusted them off. These were new ones- Jessica had worn her old ones for as long as she could remember as they brought her luck.

Her luck ran out against Avery and she decided to change everything. More time in the gym, more time at home studying. It had paid off in Jessica's estimation- she was noticeably more muscular and had a few more holds that she had practiced and honed. A technically good and strong Jessica had become technically better and stronger.

Jessica bounced up and down and sent a few punches into the nothing in front of her. She finally had her own dressing room, a sign she was moving up in the world. But she had still not made it yet. No one really bought Jessica Wright t-shirts, no one would chant her name when she entered the arena. She bowed her head.

She was told that this would be a cage match, no disqualification, and there would be weapons. Good. No bullshit, no promos, no nothing. Just violence. Just what the Violent Violet needed to get back into the world of AFW. Pure unadulterated violence. She regarded her opponent tonight as little more than a sacrificial lamb, to be roasted on the altar of AFW. Danika was her name. From some shithole in Eastern Europe and a jobber by Jessica's lofty standards. She raised her head. She was ready.

Jessica stood in the entrance room like she was on the precipice of some cliff.

Little sister there's blood on the tracks...

Her haunting intro song filled the arena and Jessica strode in. Just like she predicted, no one chanted her name. A few echoes of DEFCON 1 were heard but they were mild. Whatever. Tonight was about her, not them, and Jessica was going to give them a show. Her head was high as she walked down to the cage and hopped in. Lots of toys were on the floor. And she was going to play tonight.

Jessica leaned against her corner and waited for her opponent to come down.

Danika found herself in another hardcore match. Surely this would go better than her debut against River Styx did. Her time was now. Her music played as she walked down the ramp and entered the cage, glaring at this tall muscular woman before her. She lost her second match to Misaki as well.... that would not be the case this night.

"Hmph, you are big but that means nothing to me. You will do well not to take me lightly." Danika said as she stared up at Jessica. "These weapons level the playing field nicely, no?"

Danika was focused and ready, she wouldn't let Jessica or her reputation intimidate her.

Jessica eyed Danika up and down. She looked even less intimidating in person which Jessica honestly didn't mind. Tearing through some little girl is what Jessica did best. The referee closed the door to the cage shut. Now it was officially go time. Electricity crackled throughout the audience and Jessica tensed. This little punk had the temerity to start throwing out insults.

"It's not level." Jessica raced forward, intent on murder. "It will never be even." Her boots hit the mat with force as she dashed towards Danika- she wanted to get this match of started right. The Violent Violent leaped into the air and aimed a missile drop kick right at Danika's gut.

As she left her terrestrial bounds, she was filled with some emotion that she couldn't quite pin down. Not quite redemption, not quite joy. But it was something good. It was something that urged her to be the best damn wrestler in the whole league. Jessica's purple eyes were solely on Danika as she extended her legs like a viper extending. If it connected, it was going to hurt.

Danika ran up to reach for a weapon off the bat... but instead she caught a powerful flying dropkick to the chest! She could have sworn that the kick caved in her ribcage! Danika flew back and hit the mat, clutching her chest with both hands. "B-bitch...." She cursed. She was quickly beginning to think that this might go the way of the River Styx match but quickly dismissed such doubt.

She had to stay focused and get back into the match! Danika rolled onto her stomach and began to crawl a distance away before working her way back up to her feet to take on this muscular powerhouse of a woman.

The Violent Violet had only hit one move and her opponent was already crawling. A bitter, derisive laugh came from Jessica's mouth and her eyes twinkled with a mean sort of mischief. Tonight had the potential to get ugly. Very ugly. The walk over to Danika came slow. She wanted the little European girl to recognize her impending doom and that doom lingered. The crowd cheered her on. They came her to see something awful and something awful is exactly what Jessica wanted to give them.

"Should have stayed home tonight, sweetheart." Jessica spat as she launched a massive right hook at Danika. If that connected she would be spun around and from there Jessica could hit a German suplex. With all the nasty weapons strewn around the ring, her plummeting down to the mat would hurt quite a bit. But it would surely hurt this bitch quite a bit more.

If nothing else Danika was fast and could always rely on her kicks to get her out of trouble. Trouble was looming as Jessica stood over her.

Danika would duck low and sweep kick at Jessica, looking to trip up the bigger woman and send her to the mat face-first! Danika then wanted to line up a soccer kick right at her opponents head! "I will not be going down so easily my big bitchy friend!" Danika shouted as she put her plan into motion!

Jessica felt like she was this big badass and she was ninety percent of the time. Taking too long to wreck Danika might have looked nice in a movie, but it sure as hell wasn't a practical way to go about the match. Jessica paid for it with a low sweep that literally got her off her feet. "Ugh!" she cried out in surprise as she tumbled down to the mat.

Jessica tried to bounce back up immediately to get back in the fight. The sweep was a minor set back but that didn't mean that the Violent Violet was out of the fight yet. She brought herself upright and tried to find her bearings.

Danika got to her feet right as Jessica got to hers. Danika figured one successful kick deserved another, and as Jessica was recovering Danika ran up and aimed a fast high kick right at Jessica's jaw! "You overconfident, lumbering American fool..." Danika taunted as she readied herself to deliver more punishment to Jessica.

Danika didn't have anywhere near the power of Jessica, however speed also factored into momentum. Danika banked on that to provide the force needed to hammer Jessica... and the fact that her boots were steel-toed didn't hurt one bit either...

Look, you're good. Better than your brothers. Jessica's dad's voice came to her as if conjured up by the kick. But there will come a time when you get you get smacked. We call it getting your clock cleaned. Try to avoid getting your clock cleaned, but if it happens keep going. Jessica failed to heed the advice about avoiding it and similarly failed to heed the advice about carrying on. The kick slammed into Jessica's jaw and rattled a few of her teeth and she dropped like a bag of hammers.

Jessica moaned and rolled around on the mat. River told her about steel toed boots and how much they hurt and how useful they were in matches like this. The Violent Violet resolved to listen to her friend more, especially in matters of extreme violence but alas, here she could to little more than groan in pain. Jessica tried to push herself up and get back in the fight.

Danika looked down at the fallen giant. At 5'10'' she towered over the 5'4'' Danika. However, Danika was still standing which more than evened things out. "Not so tough now are you?"

Danika jumped up, bringing her knees as high into her chest as she could before quickly extending her legs straight down, looking to hammer her heels right down onto Jessica's abdomen! Danika cackled like a little witch as she jumped into the air and landed, trying to hammer Jessica hard enough to knock the wind out of her! As soon as she landed, she twisted her whole body to the right as hard as she could... including her dug-in heels!

Danika jumped off Jessica, laughing as she looked at the aftermath of her attack. "Heh, you aren't so big and bad now are you? Clumsy over-grown slob..."
