AV 14 Entropy Title Match: Silver Ace (C) Vs. Gwendolyn DuPont Bettencourt

"MFFFFM!"

The last thing Ace was expecting was for Gwen to sudden leap onto her back, stuck on the ladder as Gwen attached herself too her, grinding against her and nibbling her earlobe, outright stealing one of Ace's known moves for its distracting ability.

Worst of all was the gloved hand pressed against her face. With one arm, she couldn't pry it off and stay on the ladder, and the smell coming off of it told Ace right off the bat that it had in some kind of chemical on it. After all of this, the hardest fight possible, this bitch was trying to drug her!

Mentally, she quickly ran through her options. Gwen was locked in tight, and her arm was trapped, she couldn't pry the girl off of her. She could have let herself fall back off the ladder and try and squash Gwen....but it was too risky. She doubted she would have the strength to attempt to climb the ladder again, and if Gwen managed to escape getting crushed between herself and the mat, it would just give her an easy win.

Left with only one option, Haley pressed forward, the crowd chanting her name in near perfect unison, just under 10,000 people cheering her on as she grabbed the next rung and pulled herself up another step...and another...and another. It took a couple minutes, with Gwen's added weight making it harder, Ace even having to stop at one point and adjust herself to avoid falling.

All the while, the chemical on Gwen's glove was invading Ace's body, forced to breathe it in as it started to make her head fuzzy, her limbs starting to feel heavier as the drugs began to take effect. She couldn't take much more of this, but was so close...

Reaching the top of the ladder, Ace reached up, the crowd screaming its loudest as she touched the belt, Gwen's grip tightening harder against her as Ace pawed at the title, trying to undo the clasp and take the belt down....but she couldn't. She fumbled and groped at it, but couldn't get the grip needed with just one hand...and her time had run out.

Vision blurring, head buzzing and feeling numb, Ace weakly pulled at the belt above her, before her arm finally dropped, letting out soft whimpers of protest as her body started to go limp, about to pass out from the drugged glove!

Despite Ace’s steady ascension towards the hanging Entropy title belt, Gwen maintained her vice like grip all throughout Ace’s harrowing climb. She knew that if what Yayoi said was true then the more Ace struggled against it the quicker it would take hold, breathing heavily and enabling the noxious scent to run it’s course throughout Ace’s already fatigued body.

The harrowing sight of Ace single-handedly scaling the ladder with the heiress weighing her down brought the audience to an uproar over what they hoped would be a miraculous resurgence and inspiring scene of triumph over insurmountable odds!!~...which...was not to be, falling tragically short, a hair’s breadth away.

Feeling Ace’s movements become steadily more lethargic until eventually falling limp, Gwen reached out with her other arm to clasp onto the metal step before they would both be sent tumbling down. Gwendolyn’s gloved grasp was all that kept Haley from her literal and metaphorical fall from grace, opting instead to maintain her pernicious grip and hug her lifeless body even closer to her own, speaking softly into Ace’s nibbled ear in an affectionate, almost passionate tone.

“Surely...you must have known that this was the only possible outcome, Ace. As if there were any depths I wouldn't sink to ensure my victory...Now~...” Gwen clenched her tighter to the point where Ace could feel her lips tap against her ear as she continued her heated whispers. “…it’s of vital importance that you stay awake for this last part Haley, a front seat observance to my illustrious coup...and in that moment, when you're lost in the shadows from my brilliant radiance, acknowledge how truly pathetic you are…Ta~…” Gently loosening her grip Gwen allowed Ace to unceremoniously flop to the ground, simultaneously letting the air out of the crowd who at this point slumped back into their seats.  

Wiggling her fingers 'goodbye' once Ace had crash landed, Gwen turned back around and climbed those final steps until the glittering trophy was just over head. Methodically snapping it off clip at a time until the belt disconnected from the hook and now hung in the new champions grasp!! The beaming heiress arched back with her new accessory hanging behind her, a euphoric smile over her face with blue and white confetti and streamers cascading over the entire stadium as her theme blared over the speakers!!

“Your winner…and NEW!!!...AFW Entropy Champion…GWENDOLYN…DUPONT…BETTENCOURT!!!!!!”

The announcer’s bombastic declaration signaling the end of the match echoed throughout the stadium, heralding a new championship reign none in the audience were seemingly pleased to witness take place, boos and cries of foul play raining down and threatening to spoil the heiress' victory parade.

Ace hit the mat with a sick sounding smack, spots appearing in her vision, though she somehow didn't pass out, though she would have preferred that as opposed to seeing what came next.

Laying on her front, face on her side, Ace could only watch out one eye as Gwendolyn, with ease and sheer delight, took the belt down, the bell ringing to signal her victory. Just like that, it was over. Everything she had worked for, everything she had fought so hard for...had been stolen away.

She had failed. Her first ever title defense, her first main event match...and she failed. Valley, Angel, the fans...anybody who had ever believed in her or given her support, she had let them all down, herself included. God, she could just hear Taylor Parker giving her shit for it now.

That glove...it was drugged, it must have been. Nothing else could explain how she ended up like this, just seconds away from victory. One of Gwens entourage must have had it stashed on her somewhere. Damn it...the match was hers and Gwen and her bitches still found a way to cheat her.

Anger and disappointment filled Ace, as Gwen celebrated with her confetti and streamers, one small bit landing on Ace's bloody face and sticking to her. All the while watching Gwen hold up what was her title while the defeated Ace's battered and nearly broken body lacked the strength to even get up.

*Mère ... Père ... je espère que vous regardez ...* Gwendolyn shut her eyes to the shining spotlights made even more incandescent due to her elevated stance atop the steel ladder, as if Heaven itself was shining down upon her. All of her detractors and naysayers who doubted her place in this league had all been silenced in one fell swoop, the heiress believing wholeheartedly that this victory was the result of her own natural wrestling acumen and nothing more~….

The swirling downpour of blue/white confetti fluttering all around her complimented the iconic imagery of the heiress basking in this moment of sheer bliss, peeling her fingers off the steel ladder one by one until she fell backwards…

...into the waiting hands of her now recovered entourage who had snuck into the ring and were perhaps the only ones in attendance who joyously for the exuberant heiress. Hoisting her up to sit on the opposite shoulders of two members of her four man squad, her crew happily paraded their humble employer around the ring from corner to corner. The shiny accessory slung over her own shoulder while she waved and blew exaggerated kisses towards the soon to be rioting audience members.

Soon after their first victory lap around the confetti strewn ring, Gwendolyn glanced downward towards the lifeless slump that was ‘Silver Ace’, now covered bloody head to toe in Primol colors. A growing sneer crept over mouth, remembering a promise she made to Haley when she first made the mistake of challenging Gwen. Hopping off their shoulders, Gwen snapped her fingers and pointed towards Haley before pointing her index finger up. Her entourage gladly obliged, still harboring animosity towards Haley themselves for her earlier bowling act. Two of them would grab Ace by her arms and raise her up to her knees before the new Entropy Champion, who was now on one knee and face to face with the pitiful former champion…

“So…do tell, ‘Silver Ace’….how did it feel, to be left staring upwards, while I grab MY title belt…” During her piercing diatribe Gwen would lift Haley’s head up by the chin and warmly peel off any confetti sticking to her blood soaked face. “How much of a blow is this to your ego?...Because quite honestly, I still can’t imagine it~...” Gwen smiled while she reversed everything Ace had predicted during their fateful promo back towards her, clearly delighting in rubbing this win in with immense glee.

“One final parting thought, Ace…” Gwen leaned forward to press their cheeks together so Haley could hear what she had to say loud and clear. “...This entire course of events befell you for one reason…your misguided attempt to stick up for that insufferable wretch, Cassie Elliot. Putting your title on the line to defend her honor has left you a miserable, disfigured eyesore in front of millions of people. A selfless act she hardly acknowledged, not even caring enough to be by your side at this moment. Food for thought~...” Gwen punctuated her final point with a lite peck on the Haley’s cheek that had somehow not been touched with blood.

Once standing upright Gwen’s pleasant facade collapsed into a wild-eyed sneer as she arced her right leg up and slammed it on the back of Haley’s head!! Her entourage members released their grip on Haley’s arms as Gwen would gleefully grind her boot into Haley’s crimson-soaked cranium, forcing her to bow before the heiress as per her own promo predictions.

Ace had never been more humiliated than in that moment, Gwen taunting her while her servants held the limp ex-champion up. Luckily she didn't have to suffer long, as Gwens boot came down and sent Ace into the blissful peace of unconsciousness.

Once she was dropped, AFW medical trainers came out, bringing a stretcher out and rolling Ace's body onto it, carrying her up the ramp and backstage, leaving Gwen alone in the ring to continue celebrating her moment.
