AV 16: Kelly Conway vs. Julia Rogers

Satisfaction came rushing to Kelly as her heel bashed into Julia's jaw. "YES! YES THAT'S IT! THAT'S IT!! YOU'RE ALL DONE! HAHAAHAHAHA-snrk-HAHAHAAH!!" Cackled the crazy Conway, snorting in between her maniacal laughter as she set her foot down on the mat after blasting Julia onto the mat with the massive kick!

"DONE! Count. It!" Kelly ordered as she took a step over Julia's body and put a dainty boot on Julia's chest before flexing an arm over Julia as the crowd booed the former champ, wearing a proud sneer on her face.

"ONE!!"

A mixture of two different noises filled the arena as Kelly planted her foot on Julia's chest, though that's not to say any of them were cheering Conway on. Half were booing what seemed to quite possibly be her inevitable victory, while the other half screamed at Julia to kick out.

"TWO!!"

The hand struck the mat a second time, but still there was no sign of life from the cowgirl. It seemed this was going to be the end for her, knocked out and pinned under the foot of her family's archenemy despite all of her efforts and determination to finally make this wretched woman pay for everything she's done.

No. Not if Julia had anything to say about it.

The ref's hand came down for the final count, only for the luchadora to jolt an arm and shoulder off of the mat when the hand was barely an inch away from sealing Julia's fate! And suddenly the crowd's despair turned to deafening joy once again. This match wasn't over yet!

Julia kicked out and Kelly's eyes shot wide open as she sat up from Julia's sudden jolt! The woman had gone from near lifeless to suddenly springing up. Kelly just sat there with a face of pure disbelief as she stared forward, thinking the match was over right there after the brutal Conway Kick! But the match wasn't over! Julia was alive and kicking!

"Dammit! God damn you!" Kelly hissed as she stood up and tried to grab Julia by the hair and haul her up to her feet, not caring if the woman was a limp or noodled legged mess or not, Kelly was going to stand Julia up with two handfuls of hair, yanking the luchadora back and forth while screeching in her face!

"STAY! THE HELL DOWN!" Kelly snarled before trying to pull down Julia's head and attempt to throw a brutal knee right up into her face!

Whether it was pure resilience and determination or simple instinct that helped Julia kick out, even she couldn’t say. But the match was alive. This fight wasn’t over so long as she still had any sort of say in the matter!

Julia cringed as Kelly dragged her up by the hair once again, and offered no response when the woman screamed in her face like a maniac. And the next thing she knew, a knee was blasting right into her nose! A loud gasp escaped the luchadora’s lips and her head snapped back. She stumbled back a few steps then slumped forward, with her head and torso leaning down. Drops of blood fell from her nose onto the mat. Whether it was broken or not was unclear. But a steady flow of crimson was now coming from it.

But Julia didn’t go down.

Slowly her head raised back up to glare at Kelly. There was an excruciating throb in her skull, her legs were starting to feel weak, and in her dazed state she was seeing two of the blonde in front of her. But contrary to Kelly’s demand, Julia Rogers had absolutely no intent of staying down. And in an act of further defiance, she lunged forward and hurled a heavy forearm strike directly at her enemy’s jaw!

“NEVER!”

The crowd gave a sympathetic wince as they saw Julia's face take the brutal knee that snapped her head back from the vicious blow that had her stumbling back as blood seeped from her pretty nose.

The blonde grinned as the Lunchadora's knees were visibly weak before, causing Kelly to just stand there and admire her work before Julia lashed out! "UGHH!!" Cried the former champ as her eyes narrowed, feeling that forearm, blast her face and turn her head side ways before she gripped Julia by the hair and returned fire with a harsh forearm to the face of her own!

After her forearm smashed into Kelly's face, Julia had just enough time to take a couple big breaths before her foe retaliated with a strike of her own. "GAH!!" the luchadora yelled out as her head whipped to the side. She stumbled back a step, almost seeming as if she might collapse.

But then she took a step toward Kelly again, like she was going to try to hit her once again. However, instead of throwing another forearm, she spun while throwing her boot out, aiming to double Kelly over with a spinning heel kick. If it worked, the cowgirl felt she just might have the opening she'd need to finally put her enemy away!

Smashing Julia in the face, Kelly moved in for the kill quickly, chasing right after opponent, only to be met half way, running right into a kick that plowed into her abs.

"GOUUGH!!" She cried out, hopping up as she took the blow and nursed her stomach, staggering back as she was doubled over from the blow that visibly winded her!

The kick found its mark and doubled Kelly over. Julia knew exactly what the opening in front of her meant, and judiging by the growing cheers in the crowd, so did they!

Eyes full of fire and determination, the wounded cowgirl did her best to fight past her pain and fatigue and willed herself to run off into the ropes. She came dashing back and leapt up, stretched her right leg as high into the air as she could, then brought it back full force onto the back of Kelly's head and neck to deliver a mighty Axe Kick! The luchadora's finisher brought the crowd to its feet as it dropped the former world champ straight down to the mat! Julia then rolled her hated rival onto her back and hooked one of her legs, and the crowd counted along as the ref slapped the mat.

"ONE!"

"TWO!"

"THREE!!!!"

The building erupted with a wave of thunderous cheers as the bell rang and Julia's music began to play throughout the arena once again! The cowgirl rolled off of Kelly and laid next to her on the mat, panting while she caught her breath. She'd done it. Finally, after all this time, the witch who had plagued her and her friends for so long had finally been put down.

Slowly Julia made her way to her feet, and a surreal feeling washed over her when the ref grabbed her hand and raised it high into the air. She hoped all of her friends from the Higurashi Dojo were watching. She hoped she'd made them proud tonight.

Julia went to grab the Higurashi Dojo flag she'd brought down with her earlier, then took it into the nearest corner, climbed to the middle rope and held the flag up triumphantly. The cowgirl let the moment hang for a little while before climbing back down. She looked at her foe one last time, then slipped through the ropes and began a slow, tired trek back up the ramp, high fiving as many fans as she could along the way until she reached the stage. The tired blonde waved one last time to the crowd before disappearing through the curtain. The great war between the Higurashi Dojo and Kelly Conway was finally over. Now Julia could finally move on, and start the next chapter of her career...
