Despite the chaotic ending at the end of their match to get a title shot tonight, Clara and Alice were finally in California, for Summer Splash. Alice's actions resulted in animosity being raised much...much higher against the elder sibling's will, Clara very much giving Alice a very dirty look all the way towards their trip for the PPV.

It seemed to the Shadow Lord that the road to her PPV matches could not start without any drama.

But, by the time they got changed into their ring attires, and awaited their match, it finally hit Clara.

Despite her failures for so long in AFW, she was finally here, in a title match for a major Japanese promotion, with her younger sister prepared to fight with her against another team to prove that, despite a few shortcomings they had in their matches as a tag team, they were ready for those belts, ready to prove that the two of them were ready for big time.

Clara would be sitting down on a bench in the locker room, slowly inhaling and exhaling to calm her nerves. Alice, much more confident about their chances, would be standing up, doing a few stretches prior to the match. She wasn't fearful at all of the match. Clara and her learned from each and everyone of their losses, and made sure to enforce everything they learned from their wins. With the preparation on their side, she knew they had the match in the bag, and there was no need to worry about anything...

A few moments later, a crewmember would knock on their door to let them know: "10 minutes to your entrance"

The reason for the long while was obvious - the cage was being lowered for their title match.

This wouldn't be a traditional tag match. This was, very much, enforced tornado match. All 4 competitors were in at all times, and could be pinned at any time. This allowed for a ton of teamwork and combo moves between both teams, something Clara and Alice worked very much diligently towards during the few weeks of their training they had.

Once the cage was lowered, Alice would walk towards the exit to the locker room:

"Ready to kick ass, and take names?"

Clara would nod positively, put on her mask, and join her sister as SAS walked towards the Gorilla Position...

Warriors by Imagine Dragons blared on the titantron, as the slight darkness enveloped the entrance ramp, and a spotlight shown right onto the middle of it, where Alice and GASTER walked out, the Pale Rider with her usual cocky smirk and kendo stick, pointing everywhere around the arena before focusing onto the cage and the crowd, and GASTER, with her trademark maniacal laughter. Reaction for them was mixed at best, the California fans booing the duo after their actions against Blazing Blizzard just a few weeks prior, seeing them as the proper villains in the encounter, hoping the duo would get their comeuppance...something that, despite her playing the role of the villainess in her matches, didn't sit well with Clara.

Spoiler:

Spoiler:

Alice, was dressed in her usual t-shirt and tights attire, while GASTER wore her leotard + sports bra combo, still feeling very new on the Shadow Lord as she made her way down the ramp, the slightly revealing attire even cause mild pops around the crowd.

The duo would soon reach the cage door. Alice would try to walk in first, Kendo Stick in hand...

...before she felt her sister tug her on her arm. Turning to her...

"What?"

GASTER would roughly yank her stick out of her hands, and break it over her knee!

"What the fuck are you...?!"

"Mwahahahahahaha! My little general, we don't need silly weapons to become the lords of this realm tonight! Our powers would be enough!", GASTER would shout, which was, in Alice's mind, a code for: "For what you did last time, we will do things fair and square tonight".

Grumbling, Alice entered the cage through the door, followed by her sister. Despite the little episode outside of the cage, the two still posed to another round of mixed reaction from the crowd, GASTER posing with her arm crooked like a mad scientist's, and Alice, simply with her fist up in the air.

The two rested next to the ropes opposite the entrance ramp as they waited for the champions to come out...

Chelsea was all too ready to get revenge for the embarrassing debacle that had plagued her since last time they had fought the the siblings. Well not necessarily right since it was a singles match but it was still an embarrassing situation nonetheless one she wanted rectified now and one she would do anything to clear up. To that end Chelsea was here to beat down both girls and show that she was the undisputed champ of the tag team division alongside Belinda. Though she knew the Northman women was eager for that as we’ll chelsea wasn’t about to let herself be upstaged even by her own partner which is why she had a fun little thing at everyone’s expense.

Shortly after there entrance started playing Chelsea came out looking stunning and strutting out to the ring but me thing that surprised all of them was what she had on her face. For once Chelsea was wearing a mask and it looked like a red version of the mask GASTER wore. “S.A.S! You think yourselves clever to use such underhanded tricks to attain a minor victory but all you have done is brought the full weight of my power to bear and crush you for your folly! The Bright Lord of the Blazzing Blizzard and my chilling companion Belinda Northman will see you burn in the Summer sun never to be heard from again!” Chelsea screamed at the top of her lungs with a mic in hand. Her reasons were her own and while many found the act entertaining some just found it odd.

Belinda was rather confused as to why Chelsea was wearing a mask, having stepped out in her usual manner behind her tag partner, she would simply nod her head, as Chelsea began her little special entrance for tonight. The blond would shake her head a little, it was quite the stunt, though it seemed as if she was considered the Bright Lord's chilling companion. Chuckling a bit at the thought of being called chilling, Belinda would place her hand on Chelsea's shoulder.

Tonight was a payback match, so Belinda was extra fired up. She was ready to take on both GASTER and Alice, her plan was to give it her all to defeat the pair alongside her partner Chelsea and show the two sisters that Blazing Blizzard was the most dominant Tag Team around!

After Chelsea was done with her talk, Belinda would start to head down towards the cage. This was by no means going to be an easy match, but she was prepared and she was sure that Chelsea was too! Heading into the ring along side her opponent, she would step in through the cage door and head up into the ring, bouncing on her feet as she was ready and rearing to go!

"..."

"...wait..."

Slowly but surely, Clara's blood began to warm up, before it started to simmer and boil with anger at Chelsea, as the, now masked, tag team champion walked onto the ramp wearing her mask. Throughout the crowd, some were confused by the act, and some were finding it funny.

The one true Shadow Lord however, was fuming, stepping towards the edge of the caged ring that was on the side of the entrance ramp:

"Th-this is gimmick infringement! The punishment for that is 7 thousand years in each of the 7 hells! Get your own gimmick, you blazing coward!!!", she ranted at Chelsea without a mic, with the redheaded girl likely not hearing what Clara had to say in the ring.

"Regreting breaking my stick now?", Alice asked with a smirk from a corner of the ring, actually finding Chelsea's mimicry amusing.

"...a little...", she pouted, coming back to her sister's side, still upset over Chelsea not coming up with anything original to play off of her, but just ripping her off, changing very little.

The anger would be spread onto Belinda as she exit the ring alongside the "Bright Lord", GASTER angrily eyeing the opposing team as they entered the cage...while Alice had a confident smirk on her face, very eager to fight the duo and claim their titles as that of a great tag team.

The referee would enter the cage, and check both teams for their readiness. As she asked GASTER, however:

"I am ready to destroy this imposter and her servant, grind her into dust, make a jewel out of her mask...

"Ready. Got it."

Alice nodded as the ref looked at her, and with both teams ready, the signal to start the match was given, the second ref locked the cage door was locked...

DING DING DING!

...and the bell would ring to officially start the title match!

As Alice looked at her angered sister right before the bell rung, she knew what she had in mind by the time the match was ongoing, and was more than on board with what she had in mind. The moment the third bell sound rung out, both members of SAS were out off their corner, GASTER making a beeline for the "Bright Lord", while Alice took for Belinda, both jumping at their respective targets to take them down with synchronous dropkick to their chests!

That got her riled up. Watching GASTER fume in the cage screaming at her Chelsea under the red mask smiled but didn’t take it off just yet. She had planned for more fun just for her opponent and getting it over with in the first run was just too stale for her tastes. “You think me som mere gimmick but I am the embodiment of Chelsea’s vengeance. You have brought this wrath upon yourself and when you fall it will be at the hands of one who knows themselves to be better then you in all things!” Chelsea said moving into the cage and opening the ropes a bit for Belinda. Still Chelsea kept the mask once they entered waving at Alice as well but doubting that this angered her in anyway unlike her sister. She turned to ask Belinda how she wanted to start this but when she did the bell rang and before she knew it the two of them were starting to rush them. Going for duel dropkicks as Chelsea just had time to block the kick but still knocked back by the force of it.

“Aghh!” Chelsea hit the cage and dropped to a knee. Surprised that the mask stayed on her read the red copy of GASTER’s own blocking her face from view and keeping her from being able to to show any sign of pain there.

As the team of Blazing Blizzard got into the cage, Belinda would shake her head and sigh a little. Chelsea's gimmick stealing while fun was a bit embarrassing...even if it was mostly to poke fun at GASTER. She would look around at the crowd for a few seconds, as she would then turn her attention to their opponents and then to Chelsea.

Belinda had to focus though, she had a score to settle of her own, as she would throw a glare over at Alice, only to hear the bell and see them rush towards her. Belinda's chest was smacked by Alice boots as they drove into her chest, " Uugh!" shooting air out of her lungs and causing the blond to hit the cage wall and drop onto her knees as well along side her partner.

Dropping her belt to the side as the referee quickly scrambled to gather a hold the titles and remove them from the scene.

With SAS starting out things not in a traditional manner, but simply rushing out of the gate, the crowd would let their displeasure known at the champs starting the match at a slight disadvantage...but so taken with her anger was GASTER that she didn't really care for the boos. As per Alice? As long as it was some sort of reaction, she was fine with the crowd jeering her.

Prior to the match, the sisters have decided on the strategy for the match...and while originally planning to start things off slow, the out-of-the-gate approach to start of the match simply allowed them to skip step 1 (that being, one sister managing to take out one half of the champs with the powerful attack to leave her out of the proceedings for a bit), to go straight into step 2...namely, simply for the 2 sisters to work on 1 member at a time.

Upon both Gasters making their way to their feet, Clara noticed that, while Chelsea simply fell, Belinda collided her back against the wall of the cage. The blonde would be down for longer than the currently masked redhead...and in addition to that, she wanted payback for stealing her gimmick. Their target for step 2 was clear.

Motioning to Alice, the shortest lady in the ring would make her way towards the ropes opposite to where Chelsea and GASTER were, while the Shadow Lord forced her red counterpart onto her feet: "I'll show you vengence "Bright Lord"...", she grumbled, Irish Whipping Chelsea towards her younger sister...

...right as Alice came out of the ropes, outstretching her arm to nail Chelsea with an assisted Lariat!

Chelsea was covering to protect herself while attempting to avoid a troublesome situation. But it seemed the attack caught her off guard just as much as it did Belinda keeping her from being able to help her and being in an even worse position then her as GASTER grabbed her still annoyed about the Bright Lord thing. Course that was the plan but Chelsea couldn’t capitalize on that moment when she was being dragged up and thrown into the opposing sister.

“Aaaggh!” Chelsea screamed being knocked off her feet and flopping to the mat on her back. Her mask stayed on thankfully but she was now in the middle of the ring with both sisters looking over her.

Having taken a tumble back towards the cage wall, Belinda was shaken to say the least, she brought a hand up to the back of her head as she would rub it, groaning as she saw Chelsea being brought up towards her feet and then smacked down onto the floor after having been whipped across the ring and back.

Belinda would grab onto the cage as she would try to rise up towards her feet. The Swede shaking her head a bit as she would look over towards GASTER and Alice...

Not willing to let them beat on her partner, Belinda would try and charge towards GASTER, hoping she could get in behind the raven haired fighter and wrap her arms around her waist. Trying to get in a surprise German Suplex if she could catch GASTER off guard.
