Rematch: Megumi Vs. Seraphim- A decisive battle!

Standard Match

Win by Pin, Submission, or KO

Megumi Mutoh, the wrestler idol, was riding a wave of success. She recently signed on to voice the lead role in a big upcoming anime, her new single hit the top of the charts, and she recently had several victories in the ring. Now she was going to face someone she knew she had to face. Seraphim Harmonia, the woman who crushed her in the ring then shamelessly raped her, the woman who saved her life. It was odd really; Megumi didn't think of the match as a grudge, though it certainly felt as if it should be. Instead, she felt as if it was a chance to prove herself and her worth, and to make Sera accept her and like her. Yes, Megumi could feel flutters of love in her heart, she knew it. She hadn't felt this way for anybody since Chigusa, and she certainly hoped Chigusa would understand her feelings. She didn't want to turn her oldest and bestest friend into an enemy.

Megumi checked her appearance in the full-length mirror, adjusting her skirt and her stockings so that they were completely even. She had to make sure she looked good in front of the crowd, even though when she started fighting she doubted she would keep her good looks. Seraphim did quite a number to her in their previous match, and Megumi knew that this one would probably be worse. She shook her head and sighed. Why must things have happened this way? Why couldn't Sera understand, or why wouldn't she understand? It was odd to Megumi, a girl who had followed her heart wherever it led her since day one.

Megumi walked onto the ramp in silence. No music played to signal her entrance. She didn't even make any sounds. Then, a spotlight shined upon her, illuminating her completely. She raised her hand, a red microphone in it.

"This is a song for you Seraphim," Megumi said, as she began to sing her new song "Futari no Yakusoku". Her voice filled the entire arena, a song about a promise made and kept. By the end of it, Megumi had tears in her eyes. She put away her microphone and walked down the ramp while her fans cheered and rained confetti upon her. She remained stoic, even as she entered the ring and waited for Seraphim's response.

"Love me, hate me, it's all the same in the end. Do whatever makes you happy."

Those words... they were the last ones that Seraphim heard from Megumi weeks ago, and yet even so, they were as fresh in her mind as if she had just heard them. Seraphim Harmonia was about to start her rematch against her declared rival, and yet for some reason, the thought of stepping into the ring had made her feel... empty, like she still wasn't ready for this. Her mind was still washed up in a confusion of emotions, and it didn't help that all of her recent troubles with other things were piling up, making it even more difficult for the young woman to deal with. However, even if she wasn't ready for this promised match, it still seemed like the best course of action. After all, Seraphim's mind was filled with confusion, and when she had such a thing, she solved it in two ways: violence and anger, and here in the ring, it was the perfect cure.

A lot had occurred for the rising star since the two last met. From the training she had been offering to several kawaii's, her conflicting 'relationship' with Phoebe, her deal with Sarah Gatt, the winning streak she kept up, and most importantly, the soon to be formed organization; White Gale, which was going to put a stop to the Era of Hell. Overall, Seraphim Harmonia had really made a name for herself now, and people weren't even viewing her as a Heel anymore, but someone who was starting to find the light and may even soon be declared as a Face. After all, despite the disrespect she had for fans, Seraphim still treated the other wrestlers with respect, and had shown that despite how cruel she could be, the woman had a heart of gold, and even tried making this League safer for others to enjoy.

But today.. none of that mattered. It was just Seraphim, Megumi, and the ring. The white haired, one eyed wrestler was about to step out to the ring, but not before hearing Megumiâ€s entrance. It was strange… she didnâ€t have her usual intro music. But then, she heard something strange, there was the sound of a spotlight clicking on, and then…

”This is a song for you Seraphim, Futari no Yakusoku”

Her voice was… it was absolutely beautiful. And to have a song dedicated to their promise, and the two of them… it almost moved Seraphim to tears. The girl was as tough as nails, but to receive something so special before their match, to know that Megumi still cared after all those things she said to her last time they met, it took Seraphimâ€s breath away.

When Megumi finished though, her own music had cued, but it certainly wasnâ€t the same as before. No swearing or heavy rock, in fact, there were no lyrics at all as a song known as ‘Under Heavenâ€s Destruction†played, and Seraphim emerged to the platform. She was garbed in her usual fighting attire, only instead of a vest it was a rather simple, gray sleeveless shirt. However over it all, she was wearing a large, white flowing robe that draped to the ground and a flock of about a dozen white birds flew off through the entire stadium, truly revealing that Seraphim had taken a change. She acknowledged a few fans on her walk down the platform, a soft smile on her lips as her crimson eye gazed up ahead, spotting Megumi awaiting her.

This was it... the day she waited for.

Removing her robe, Seraphim adjusted her black leather eyepatch before stepping into the ring, fans cheering for her wildly as she entered the ring, approaching the center as her smile faded. She was speechless, her once confident expression slipping to a soft frown as her eyebrows curved up and she looked at Megumi with a small frown. “I… didnâ€t think you still cared.” She finally said, barely above a whisper towards Megumi, not even sure of the reaction Megumi would have, actually a bit afraid she may disprove of something. For once in her life, Seraphim not only cared about how someone else thought about her, but she could feel that deep inside, if Megumi had even the slightest bad thing to say about her, it would wound Seraphim deeply.

...Since when did she care about Megumi this much..?

Megumi watched Sera carefully as she came out. She couldn't make out Sera's face as she walked down the ramp, but she knew something wasn't quite right. Sera usually exuded an aura of confidence, and now she seemed to lack that. Not only that, the white robe she wore seemed at odds with her persona. Had Sera changed to much in such a short time? Megumi wondered what had happened. She didn't have the time to follow the matches going on at AFW, but she knew that Sera had become quite famous in a short amount of time, and that her heelishness was disappearing. No doubt Sera was still quite a brutal fighter in the ring, but she did not seem to be too much into hurting other people, and had even saved quite a few, like Megumi.

But this wasn't going to be a merciful fight. Megumi intended to settle things here. Though she felt attracted to Sera, she wasn't going to go easy. She was going to prove her strength by beating the only person who had defeated her to the ground. She met Sera's gaze with her own, though it was a soft gaze. She was a little taken back by what Sera said.

"I do care Sera," Megumi said, "And I want to show that to you." She paused, looking Sera up and down. "You've changed," Megumi commented, "It's odd, but you seem kinder." She smiled.

Keeping her calm and maintaining focus as best as she could, Seraphim let out a long breath, her hands falling to her side and easing out from being fists. Overall, she didn't seem to have the same reckless and fierce outlook like she usually had, but at the same time, her proud calamity and confidence seemed less outwards than usual, it almost seemed like she didn't want to be here.

However, when Megumi said that she still cared, Seraphim's crimson eye closed slowly, and she tilted her head down, as if her word struck deep. There was a brief silence, but slowly, a light grin creapt to Seraphim's lips, beore finally she nodded slowly and opened her eye again, looking at her. In those few moments, she regained a bit of her normal demeanor, and actually looked... happy for a change. "Thank you.. Megumi-chan." She said with a peaceful tone, even after what she said next. "But I'm afraid that kindness still refused to enter the ring with me." The way her eye sparkled and the smile she carried, it seemed like she wasn't making a threat, but more like she just gave a warning, leting Megumi know that despite her condition right now, she still planned to give it her all. With Megumi, there was nothing but her best to give, and she had planned to do that once again, knowing she could defeat her again like the first time.

Megumi smiled as she saw the old confidence, and the old Sera she knew return. Indeed, Sera even looked happy, and it wasn't the usual terrifying joy she had when she was beating someone to a pulp. "There we go," she thought, "That's better. There's no point in fighting someone who has no will to fight." Her smile turned into a grin. She raised one of her hands and pointed at Sera.

"It won't be fun if you decided to go easy," Megumi said, "And you won't beat me again. I'm gonna have fun with you tonight Sera-chan. You do remember our bet don't you? I hope you're ready to serve me."

It seemed that the two of them were carrying a strong confidence by now, both looking only to win, and willing to put in everything they had by now. Seraphim could feel the anticipation rising in her, thinking about nothing else but the match. Her training with Tammy and Minerva, the formation of White Gale, her worries about the Era of Hell, her.. complications with Phoebe, and even Alison and her own personal issues; none of that mattered today. Right now, it was all about the two of them, and Seraphim intended to give everything she had today, never forgetting the promise, and planning to make Megumi be the one who was begging. She wanted to hear the girl cry out her name again in desire, just like last time.

"Of course you will." Seraphim said with a sarcastically sweet tone, giving a somewhat deviant grin as she did. "You're certainly going to have fun being my servant." Getting a soft laugh from that, it was obvious that Seraphim had her own intentions, but then again, the two had plenty of time to think about their bets they made with one another, so she had planned out so much for this day. In fact, Megumi's 'costume' was already secretly stashed under the ring just in case~

Still... Seraphim couldn't hide her feelings forever, and even when she did win, she didn't intend on abusing Megumi, she... she really did care about her, and she wouldn't dare to anything to truly hurt the girl outside of this ring.

Of course, inside the ring, the would have to hurt one another, that was the intention all along, at least physically anyway. And so, Seraphim stepped back, slipping into her dangerous stance as she was close to the turnbuckle. Her legs arrange in an offensive Maui Thai stance, and her fists close to her body in a defensive boxing style, Seraphim was ready and waiting for things to start, already feeling her blood pumping with excitement.

Seeing Sera getting into her stance, ready for the fight to begin, Megumi settled into her defensive stance as well. "That's only if you win," Megumi said in response to Sera. The bell rang, signaling the beginning of the match. "And I don't plan to let you!" Megumi yelled. She charged forward, running at top speed, hoping to catch Sera off guard. She hoped that the rushing attack she was doing would surprise Sera enough to create an opening. She didn't count on it though.

"Take this!" Megumi yelled. She leapt into the air and pointed her feet at Sera in a powerful dropkick. It wasn't an opening move that Megumi used normally, however after seeing Chigusa always use that move to start off her matches, and seeing how effective it was, Megumi decided it had to be worth a try. If anything, she hoped it would be a surprise to Sera, just how aggressively she was fighting.

This was going to be great, she could feel it all over, the desire and anticipation, it was coursing through every one of her veins~! Th white haired wrestler stood her ground at her f and a half feet height, keeping herself defensive for now as the bell rang, wanting to see what Megumi would throw at her. It had been a long time since they faught, and the girl might have any surprise awaiting for her, so Seraphim wanted to be ready. In fact, she wanted Megumi to throw the first blow, just so she could see what she would expect.

The bell rang, and Seraphim let herself loosen up so she could react quicker, suddenly noticing the charge Megumi was taking. Even seeing her run was lovely.. watching her bosom roughly bounce around, damn it was almost distracting.. Seraphim kept her focus though, her one crimson eye watching Megumi closely before mounting her defensive. Since she already had herself prepared to recieve a blow, Seraphim had been able to take it with minimal damage, crossing her arms in front of her as her muscles took in the brunt of Megumi's boots unleashing such a force, blocking it impressively. Seraphim was certainly surprised to see such an offensive so early on, but she guarded it with the best of ease. If Megumi was going to be reckless, then that made things easier. Most of the pople you fight in back alleys in prisons had no style and just charged at you like that, so Seraphim was more than skilled at such brawling, that was for sure.

"Damn, violent today, arn't ya?" Seraphim asked after blocking, trying to shift to the side while Megumi would get up, getting a peak up her skirt too, but mostly trying to move away so she wasn't cornered into the turnbuckle, and instead putting Megumi near the corner as she went around her.

Megumi's dropkick struck Sera's crossed arms, doing some damage but not as much as Megumi would've liked. But that was to be expected. To get hit by a dropkick like that would be shameful, since Sera had plenty of time to react. Megumi quickly rolled and got up, smoothing out her skirt as it had gotten flipped up and gave Sera a nice look at the tight black panties she was wearing. She saw Sera moving off to the side, and found that she was going to get cornered against the turnbuckle. Megumi wasn't going to let that happen.

She took the offensive again. Megumi knew Sera's main weakness was that she was blind on one side, and so she was exploitable. Megumi dashed to her left, which was Sera's blind side. She hoped to get in her blind spot and throw a punch or two at Sera, to make her back off a bit and to prevent herself from getting cornered.

Never giving Megumi the chance to find an opening, Seraphim watched her over like a hawk, waiting for even the slightest of movements before mounting a defense. She had to find the right moment, the perfect oppurtunity, and then she would strike. It was one thing to mount an offense, but to do it the moment the opponent's defense was at it's lowest by missing an attack, the most damage always occured. "Still wearing black I see." Seraphim said wih a smirk, commenting on the girls panties she had caught a glimpse of, but never losing her focus. She was hoping to get the girl flustered, it was another good way to crush someone's spirit.

When the next punch came, Seraphim saw the strike coming, but due to her missing right eye, she couldn't see exactly where the punch was going to land, and felt it hit hard into her side, just above her hips. It stung, and it was certainly something she would feel later, but Seraphim was always known to have a remarkable stamina, enough so to fight through the pain, telling herself now that she should mount her own offense before getting struck in her blind spot again. And so, despite cringing in pain, Seraphim bit back against it and unleashed her own attack after the first one hit her, rising her knee up quickly as she hoped to rise up and hit it right in Megumi's chin, hoping to blindside her as well since the attack came from below so suddenly, and hoping to stop another attack.
