The rep had been built. She was the next big thing. And while the Filipino Phenom still had the ability and strength to reach the top, and the moxie to send Portia to the perpetual showers, something apparently was missing. For when the brightest spotlights shown on her, the title-related tumble was sure to follow.
Close but no cigar and bridesmaid were now associated more with $uguitan, Incorporated than up and comer and can’t miss. Still, the powers that be seemed to understand they have a commodity for the time being and tonight’s show of support might be the last available to the copper-skinned, destroyer-class beauty.
The flawless exotique waited at “gorilla”, bouncing from one foot to another, battle gear perfectly positioned on her flawless form. Retiring Portia VanBuren had ceased to become a resume builder and was now evidence of one-hit wonder status, particularly if the FAWNatics saw her fail again against a Church member they desperately want evicted from the World Title.
The crowd was plunged into darkness and Suguitan could feel her heart nearly beat out of her chest with the chance to reclaim her once powerful momentum and jump to the top of the organization in one fell, three-second swoop.
The FAWNtron showed a quickly shifting montage of metropolitan skylines from around the world; Chicago, New York, London, Paris, Sydney, Los Angeles, Rio and ultimately Orlando, with the FAWN arena on prominent display. The speakers kicked in as those assembled cheer long and loud, the volume of the former more than loud enough to make sure everyone heard the opening to Fall Out Boy’s ‘Centuries’.
Some legends are told,
Some turn to dust or to gold,
But you will remember me,
Remember me for centuries.
Light returned in time with the first verse, revealing that each side of the ramp was lined with half a dozen burly secret services types in black suits. Backs to the roaring throng, they keep their eyes trained on the entryway, where the usual curtain had been replaced with a set of frosted glass double doors emblazoned with a name grown quite familiar to the Orlando faithful.
$UGUITAN
And just one mistake,
Is all it will take.
Go down in history,
Remember me for centuries.
The CEO of $uguitan Incorporated kicked the doors off their hinges and stormed into view with her arms raised high, a war cry emanating from her lips. Surprised by the show of emotion and perhaps frustration from the usually icy Penthouse Panther, the FAWNatics offer some hopeful applause, though not the ovations to which Alexis had become accustomed.
ALEXIS SUGUITAN:
Noticeably shaken by the less than forceful support, Lexy nevertheless brought both hands to her waist and ‘strapped’ an invisible belt in place. She locked her eyes on the ring and started down the aisle as the Announcer began.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for our Main Event! This match is scheduled for one fall with a sixty minute time limit and is for The FAWN World Championship. Introducing the challenger, hailing from Manila in the Philippines, she stands five feet and eight inches and weighs in at one hundred and thirty-four pounds. She is the Penthouse Panther, the Filipino Phenom; she is ALEXIS SUGUITAAAAAAAAN!”
For tonight’s high stakes battle, the CEO sported a gleaming white two piece that almost glowed against the mellow copper of her complexion. The pro-style trappings continued with matching knee-pads and shin-high boots, the former adorned with the same stylized ‘$’ seen on the double doors. Last but not least was a voluminous sleeveless mink coat, an accessory that would look just as appropriate at a red carpet premiere or adorning the shoulders of some warrior queen as she strode into battle.
Suguitan was all business, passing on slapping hands with the crowd. She ascended the steps and slipped through the ropes to claim the center of the ring as her own, offering senior official Nick Castle her arms and legs for the usual check.
Afterward, the challenger turned from the official and asked Castle to assist in carefully slipping the mink off one shoulder then the other at Alexis’ urging. Its absence revealed one last detail, a glittering golden ‘$’ stretched taut across her sculpted backside, the only remaining reminder of her time as Baby’s number one head hunter.
Alexis doffed off her shades and handed them to Castle. While Nick delivered the fur and the Ray-Bans to a FAWN attendant, the catfighter extraordinaire backed into her home corner to await the Champion and any other members of her loathsome congregation.
“And introducing her opponent--”
“Is someone infinitely more qualified, you puling heathen.” Vitriol rose from the FAWNatics in an almost tangible cloud as the Deacon of Despair, Miranda Wainright stepped into view atop the stage. Dressed in an *almost* immodest purple and black skirt, a gray example of the new ‘Hell is Empty…’ tank-top and her ever present round black hat, Wainright let the miserable wretches tire themselves out before she raised the mic again.
MIRANDA WAINRIGHT:
“At Mayhem my Weeping Angel silenced the forked tongue of Eliza Bliss once and for all. As for Summer Swelter,” she turned her attention to Alexis and offered her a malevolent smile, “tonight this so called Penthouse Panther will be reduced to nothing more than a whimpering rug for the floor of our glorious Mesonoxian Cathedral!”
More boos rained down, but Wainright simply basked until they faded away again. “Now heathens, hold your breath and avert your gaze! Because now I bring to you a woman that hails from Oxrun Station, Connecticut. Who stands at five feet six inches tall and weighs in tonight at one hundred and twenty-five pounds. She is the Daughter of Darkness, the Queen of Nightmares and last but certainly not least, YOUR FAWN World Champion! Drop to your unworthy knees and BEG for the mercy of ADELAIDE BREWSTER!”
The lights died as her name reached the rafters and the speakers answered the call with the soft, eerie opening of Lorde’s ‘Glory and Gore’.
For a moment there was nothing but darkness and pinpricks of cell phone light, then a few lights on either side of the stage ‘whoomped’ on to reveal Miranda waiting in a carpet of ankle deep fog. Still no sign of the third Churchgoer and that was the way it stayed until a cold blue light illuminated the gloomy recession leading to the curtain. A figure swung down from the ceiling of that narrow throat, a figure hanging by her knees from a bar suspended just out of camera view. Arms crossed over her chest, Adelaide Brewster opened her eyes, then twisted loose and landed on her feet just as her anthem warned ‘Now we’re in the ring and we’re coming for blood.’
ADELAIDE BREWSTER:
Flanked by the Messiah of Misery, Adelaide reached to the small of her back and undid the clasp that held the World Title in place. Raising it to shoulder level, she extended her tongue and sloooooooooowly licked the glimmering faceplate, much to the disgust of those in attendance. Brewster paid them absolutely no mind, focusing instead on a brief conference with Wainwright. When it was over Miranda disappeared into the dark and Adelaide started down the ramp with the title slung over one shoulder. For her first title defense the ballistic brunette wore a gleaming black two-piece done in crushed velvet that showed off the power in her hips and shoulders in almost agonizing detail. The look was accented with a clunky black belt complete with a buckle done up as a snarling wolf’s head and matching black boots and pads.
Reaching the ring quickly (because no one quite dared extend a hand) Adelaide slunk under the bottom ropes, pushed to her feet and took possession of the center. Eyes locked on Suguitan, the Daughter of Darkness raised the title to the rafters, threw back her head and ‘FWOOOOOOOOSHED’ a cloud of Crimson Mist into the air. It was still pattering down in fine droplets when the lights came back on, so Castle held his distance until the air was clear.
“You always make such a big deal of elbows and knees, arbiter.” the champ said after she’d handed over the golden prize. “Aren’t you at all concerned about my TEETH?”
“Not as long as they stay away from my neck, Adelaide.”
Brewster licked her lips as she backed into the far corner. “No promises, heathen.”
Alexis didn’t have the closest relationship with the FAWNatics despite her association with the Dangerous Dame, but that didn’t stop her from nodding appreciatively when someone shouted, ‘WHOOP HER ASS, ‘LEXIS!’ just after the opening bell. Adelaide heard it too and smiled, the freshly minted World Champion clearly amused by the encroachment of the Penthouse Panther into her dark domain. Eyes narrowing over the apparent lack of respect, Suguitan rolled her shoulders and stomped out to center ring with every intention of reigniting the spotlight that went out when Eliza Bliss fell to darkness at Mayhem.
Brewster noted the direct approach and matched it with one of her own, Miranda’s Deacon of Destruction strolling straight at her insolent opposition. Considering her penthouse bona fides she’d expected Alexis to greet her with a handful of hair or a hard slap, but the CEO of $uguitan Inc. only raised her hands to chest level and began to circle.
“Can’t lie, I might’ve cheered a little when you folded Blissy in half.” the challenger said. “And I might’ve cheered even louder when you chomped on the side of her neck. But it’s nothing compared to how I’ll celebrate when I show the world you’re nothing but a one and done World Champion.”
Adelaide licked her teeth, making a show of running her tongue over the points of her canines. “You were one of the first to fall in the so called ‘Summer of Bliss’. As I recall, she humbled you en route to her victory at last year’s ‘Mania. So if you couldn’t beat her when she wasn’t even a champion--” The Weeping Angel chested into Alexis hard enough to rock her back on her heels. “How do you expect to beat the woman that stripped her of the gold?”
Alexis caught her balance then got all up in Brewster’s business, the pair of hardbody brunettes going nose to nose amidst a chorus of ‘ooooohhh’s’ form those assembled. “I could tell you.” she said softly. “But I’d rather show you.” Suguitan stepped back and raised her left hand overhead. “If you’re not too scared, that is.”
The Champion didn’t even hesitate, she simply placed her right hand against Alexis’s left and began to squeeze. “You’re the one that’s going to learn the value of fear, heathen.” She raised her other hand, forcing Suguitan to answer the challenge this time around. “By the time I’m finished with you the Penthouse Panther will be twined around my feet, quite domesticated and utterly harmNGH!”
Alexis pressed her free hand against Adelaide’s mouth and swiveled her head with a rude pie-face before hooking onto the Test of Strength. Eager to capitalize on the distraction, Suguitan thumped her chest against the Churchgoer’s before she pushed onto her toes and bore down as hard as she could.
Brewster grimaced as her wrists rolled backward, but she held her ground and eventually negated the challenger’s advantage by wrenching their arms down to three and nine o’clock. Returning Alexis’s chest thump with one of her own, Adelaide added to her foe’s troubles by slooooooowly forcing her arms back at wide, unpleasant angles. “You’re out of your depth, heathen.” Brewster cooed to the straining Filipino. “This is no mere tussle in your underwear for the amusement of bored executives, this is a war for the most important prize in all of FAWNNNGGGHHH!”
Alexis hit her with a short Headbutt to the bridge of the nose, yanked their arms all the way back to high noon and finished with one, two, three Kneelifts to the tummy, the last of which dropped the champion to one knee. Now possessed of an undeniable height advantage, Suguitan went up on tiptoe and pushed down like she meant to snap her opponent’s hands off at the wrists. “Go ahead, bytch.” she chided. “Tell me I’m not ready. Tell me how I’m not ready to beat your ass and take that World Title. But do me a favor, try to tell me to my face!” She pushed down again, the force of her efforts sending a noticeable tremble through Brewster’s forearms and biceps. Content to plant her feet flat now that Adelaide was enduring an unwanted penance, Alexis flipped some hair off her face and waggled her hips directly in front of the champ’s nose. “Looks like you’re going to need a new faith when this match is over.” Suguitan teased over the whistles and catcalls. “Luckily I’ve got an altar in need of a few new worshippers. Why don’t you get started with a little kiss?” She dipped her knees and thrust her hips forward, the challenger blatantly disrespecting her adversary.
Of course Adelaide only twisted her head to one side and kept fighting to regain her footing, which Alexis didn’t appreciate in the slightest. Going up on her toes again, she ‘smecked’ the coppery plank of her tummy against Brewster’s cheek half a dozen times as she demanded, “Do it now or later, doesn’t matter to me. Either way you’re going to worship your new HNGH! HNGH! HHHHGGGHHH!”
The Queen of Nightmares repelled Suguitan’s abdominal encroachment with a series of three quick Headbutts to the belly and she would’ve followed it up with an equally hungry bite if she hadn’t seen Castle lurking close to the action. But the pressure on her arms slackened considerably even without her toothsome extracurriculars, so Brewster got to her feet and immediately wedged herself deep into the challenger’s personal space.
“You aren’t woman enough to even test my faith, let alone break it.” she told the Ferocious Filipino. “And if one of us is destined to play the role of supplicant,” Adelaide spiked a Kneelift into Alexis’s waistband just below her navel. “It’ll be you, kittNNOOFFHHH!”
Suguitan punished the True Believer’s tummy with a Kneelift of her own, not quite a Low Blow, but plenty stiff enough to put a shimmy in Brewster’s buttocks. “Wrong again, slut.” Alexis hissed in her foe’s ear. “But after I win the title I’ll put it on backwards so you’ve got something to look at while I’m riding your facNNNGGHHH AAAAARRRRHHHHHH!”
Adelaide spiked the challenger’s navel with a second Kneelift, then nuzzled close and buried her teeth in the side of Suguitan’s neck! “BITING!” Alexis wailed and stomped her feet as Brewster made her a pre-midnight snack. “DIRTY BYTCH IS BITING!”
“Tattletale.” Adelaide cooed in Alexis’s ear after Castle tapped her on the shoulder to warn about the gnawing. The Penthouse Panther started to reply only to let loose with a pained wail when the other brunette slammed a heavy knee between her thighs. “Didn’t I say you’d make a wonderful supplicant?” Adelaide smirked as Alexis crumpled to her knees. “I believe I did. Just as I believe you’re ready to pay tribute right now, unfortunately I’m not about to have my first title defense end in a three minute squash because my opponent is a sniveling quitter.”
“F*ck you, succu-bytch. We’ll see who’s sniveling when I get my chance to rummage around inside those tacky trunks of--”
Brewster tossed away Suguitan’s left hand, switched her Knucklelock for a Wristlock and used it to yank Alexis forward while simultaneously blasting her right knee into the Filipino’s chin! There was a low THUNK followed by a much louder ‘oooooooohhhhhh!’ as Suguitan flopped onto her back with both arms stretched high overhead. Despite earlier statements to the contary, Brewster dropped down and hooked the far leg in a Back Press that Nick blessed with a…
KNEE STRIKE:

ONE…
TWO…
Alexis kicked free simultaneous with ‘TWO’ and turned onto her side to avoid a follow-up pin. Adelaide didn’t bother, she only leaned over the woozy exotique and cooed, “Your blood is sweet, my nasty little kitten. But I bet your fear is that much sweeter.” Eager to find out, she filled her hands with Suguitan’s hair and started scraping her off the mat.
Brewster yanked the wobbly Phenom to vertical, snuggling in close from behind. With her arms wrapped tight around Suguitan’s midriff, Adelaide cinched, dipped and heaved Alexis up and over with a ring-rattling German Suplex. The Filipino’s head and shoulders SLAMMED into the thinly-sheathed plywood, the Churchgoer holding onto her challenger.
But Brewster didn’t stack the increasingly glassy-eyed exotique on her shoulders for a count. Instead, the brunette twisted to the right, dragging Alexis along with her. The Penthouse Panther was forced to her feet once more and it took no more than a split-second of verticality for Adelaide to RIP Suguitan off them with another German, this impact getting more of the back of the raven-haired wrestler’s noggin planted.
The brain-scrambling impact made forcing Lexy up a third time more of a chore, but it’s one the champ was more than up to, plucking the copper-skinned beauty up to another captured stance, further from breaking free of Adelaide’s Bear Hug than ever. Showing some wear of her own, it’s a struggle for the titleholder to lift and deposited Suguitan a third time, but into the partial backflip Alexis was sent, RAMMING to an echoing impact.
Brewster kept the Panther stacked this time, taut ass pointed to the rafters as Alexis folded atop herself. Lexy’s legs flailed weakly, most of her senses driven free from the consecutive impacts. The Queen of Nightmares maintains Portia’s former protégé mat-bound for the…
ROLLING GERMAN SUPLEXES:

ONE…
TWO…
The Filipino struggled free of the bridging Brewster, the purveyor of Eternal Midnight leaving a crack of light open as Alexis flopped to her side. Suguitan pushed to all fours but then seemed frozen, her gray matter jostled by the threesome of Suplexes.
Beside her, a smirking Adelaide ran her tongue over the upper half of her perfect pearlies.
“I love a little heat to my meals,” she snarked.
The champ grabbed for Lexy’s neck and Suguitan tried to spin out of trouble, shifting from hands and knees to a seated position from which she could safely rise, but Adelaide skillfully wrapped her arms around Alexis’s throat from behind, clamping on with a Rear Naked Choke. The Churchgoer nuzzled close, tightening her grip, whispering sweet nothings into Suguitan’s left ear before fastening her choppers into the tawny left nape of Lexy’s neck.
Torn between the lack of blood flow to her brain via the choke and the stinging bite, Lexy sparked to life. She forced her way up despite Brewster’s best efforts to keep her challenger seated. Removing her canines and incisors, literally leaving an impression, Adelaide rattled her grip, sending a shimmy through the rubbery stems of the challenger. Alexis managed to stumble to the strands and fall into them, curling her arms around the top cable.
Nick called for the break and, at FOUR, the Churchgoer relinquished her submission, backing away no more than a step after releasing.
Mustering awareness from somewhere, Alexis swung a back fist toward Brewster’s temple but Adelaide ducked under the unexpected effort. The spin left Suguitan face to face with the World Champion. Adelaide wrapped her hands behind Lexy’s neck and leapt into a tuck, pressing tight to the catfighter’s chest. The Damsel of Darkness let gravity do the rest, tugging the challenger into a bosom-flattening Inverted Lungblower that rocked $uguitan, Inc. to its foundations.
INVERTED LUNGBLOWER:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEm3GvgkqAM
Alexis would have ended flat on her back if she hadn’t been sent flying into the buckles behind her. A limp arm on either side was laid atop the uppermost cable, Lexy’s chin sagging to her bruised breasts. Racing toward the staggered challenger, Adelaide leapt and spun into a combination Back Elbow and Splash that took the remaining starch out of the beleaguered Filipino.
As the Churchgoer bounced away from the flaccid Lexy, the raven-haired contender tottered out of the buckles, making it a few steps before she took a header, planting to the canvas right between her dark, cloudy eyes. Alexis absently rolled to her back after the collision, the Penthouse Panther declawed and becoming Exhibit A in Adelaide’s declaration of superiority over all of FAWN.
Languidly, she moved beside the pummeled and prostrate Panther. Brewster sprang, extending her legs. She CRASHED down across coppery midriff with a Senton. Alexis’s eyes bulged as she jackknifed under the gutting impact before settling back to the canvas underneath the champ. Adelaide reached behind her to a hook a leg as she reclined across the breathless Suguitan for the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOOO!
The somewhat lackadaisical pin led to a less than convincing escape from the reeling, nearly bankrupt $uguitan, Inc. The challenger rolled to her chest and slithered along the canvas, trying to sneak out under the bottom rope. Alexis’s body was halfway under and out before an unconcerned Adelaide passed on grasping an ankle and tugged her foe back to the center. Instead, the champion slipped through the ropes, dropped to the floor, and slapped the taste out of Lexy’s mouth with a head turner of a bytchy open hand.
“Don’t even TRY to leave Church early,” the purveyor of Eternal Midnight recommended in cheek-stinging terms and indeed Alexis was convinced enough to roll away from the blow and back into the squared circle where she slowly pushed to her feet while Brewster moved to join her.
Stumbling toward the opposite side of the ring, Alexis had her left shoulder snatched from behind. The Churchgoer spun the Penthouse Panther to face off and, as she did, she bent Lexy’s right arm back at the elbow to clear a path for some cardiac fibrillation, the Queen of Nightmares cocked and ready to deliver a Heart Punch to put the Filipino into a coma.
But before Adelaide could deliver, Suguitan used her free hand for a message of her own. The catfighter showed she’s not quite ready for Mass to be over, raking a set of nails across the big dark eyes of the World Champion.
Brewster screeched in pain, turning and staggering away, rubbing furiously at her peepers. Sensing Alexis’ approach from behind she pirouetted into a blind swing-and-miss right cross, Suguitan’s recovery effort from the beating she’s been taking, saving her from a fist to the chin. Instead, the teary-eyed Churchgoer wobbled sightlessly into a brutal Spin Kick to the back of her skull from the challenger.
SPIN KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dyj3F58jKk
Still, the champion remained upright, calling on some higher or lower power to keep her feet rooted to the deck. The Penthouse Panther proceeded to sink her digits into the thinly-covered bosom of the Churchgoer, gashing and squeezing with a pair of Breast Claws like only the Filipino catfighter could apply.
With her foe’s palms clenching and twisting the tender tissue, the champion winced through the pain to raise her arms to either side of Lexy’s skull. Before Adelaide could ring some ears with a clap of her hands, Suguitan released and LAID into the nape of Brewster’s neck with a wicked series of Mongolian Chops. Alexis managed a half dozen to each side before the battered Brewster melted to her haunches, kneeling before her copper-skinned idol.
“Yeah, that’s right bat-skank,” Suguitan huffed as she filled her hands with the zealot’s dark hair, “get on your knees and stay there until I say otherwise.” Too stunned from the Chops to offer anything cogent by way of reply, Brewster remained silent until the challenger reeled her into a Standing Headscissors and began to squeeeeeeeeze!
“Errrhhh gnnnnhhhhhh!” Adelaide swatted, then raked at Alexis’s strong stems to little effect.
Pleased by this hapless wriggling, Suguitan sent several more pulses through the champ’s trapped noggin before she leaned forward and cinched both arms around her waist. Smirking as she gouged her knotted hands into opposing tummy, ’Lexy set planted her feet and chided, “Just pretend the ring is your heart… and your head is a stake.”
With that she dipped her knees and muscled Brewster upsidedoNO! Adelaide kicked her legs wildly and though she wasn’t able to escape the Scissors & Waistlock the resistance was more than enough to return her to terra firma. Not about to abandon such a dominant position, Suguitan broke the handhold, placed her fingertips just above the line of Adelaide’s togs and raked the World Champion all the way to her shoulders, not just once, but fully half a dozen times!
The Weeping Angel protested each and every one of these stinging striations, alas mere mewls alone weren’t enough to free her from the talons of the Penthouse Panther, in fact Adelaide’s discomfort spurred Suguitan to put even more ‘ooomph’ behind successive swipes. Returning to the Waistlock once she’d broken in her new scratching post, Alexis squeezed harder than before when she gathered her reserves and muscled the other brunette ass over teakettle. Or at least she would have if Adelaide hadn’t paid her back with a well timed rake across the back of her attacker’s thighs.
“Ok bytch, that’s how you want it? That’s how you’ll get it.”
Breaking the Waistlock following the strongest constriction yet, she knotted her hands into a single fist, raised the makeshift club overhead and THWHUMPED it into the small of Brewster’s back once, twice, thrice! The heavy force of those shots brought Adelaide’s arms up somewhat, so Suguitan slipped her hands under the Churchgoer’s biceps, however instead of simply locking her hands a third time she hooked her fingers into the leg-holes of Brewster’s velvet briefs and yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanked until they were far more immodest than Adelaide (or Miranda) would’ve preferred.
The wedgie got an appreciative roar from the FAWNatics as it so often did, yet Alexis knew trunk-work alone wouldn’t bring home that ten pounds of leather and gold, which was why she used her salacious grip to hoist / flip Brewster onto her shoulders in the stall position for a Powerbomb. Just like that she cinched her arms around Adelaide’s thighs and dropped to her tush to THAWHAM the champ down full force courtesy of the Panty Peeler. Scootching in close to ensure her tummy was snug against Brewster’s hurtin’ back, Suguitan hooked her legs over the other brunette’s biceps to keep her down for the…
PANTY PEELER:

ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOOO!
The Queen of Nightmares jerked loose with half a second to spare which would’ve irritated Alexis more if Brewster hadn’t immediately flopped onto her tummy to better pluck at that savage wedgie. “What’s the matter, all the mysterious powers of midnight can’t help you fix a damned wedgie?” Suguitan taunted as she hauled Adelaide to a seat with a double handful of hair. “Then I guess it won’t be able to help you with this either.”
Left knee posted on the mat, she sidled the right in against Adelaide’s back, all the better to bend her backward over the posted joint. Brewster didn’t just sit there and take it of course, she immediately scrabbled and pushed at the challenger’s chin, so Lexy cupped her left hand over the other woman’s chin and pushed down to add another layer of discomfort to the hold.
NECK & BACK STRETCH:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUpehlGHkgI
Noting the strain in Brewster’s neck and back, Castle strode over and asked, “How you doing, Adelaide? Need me to--”
“Don’t bother to ask her just yet.” Alexis chirped. Once she had Nick’s attention, she fashioned her right hand into a spade and raaaaaaaked Adelaide’s exposed abdominals before securing a Collins-level Belly Claw. Eyes sparkling as Brewster wriggled and groaned, Alexis said, “NOW you can ask her.”
“What do you say, Adelaide?” the zebra repeated, uninterrupted this time. “Need me to call it?”
“Never!” the Daughter of Darkness barked. “It’ll take more than a low-rent catfighter to take that title from AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHH!”
Suguitan shifted her focus south with a white-knuckled grip centered on her rival’s briefs. “Watch your mouth, bytch.” she growled. “Or I’ll tear you into so many pieces not even Miranda could resurrect your sorry GUUURRRHHHK!”
Brewster reached up and grabbed Suguitan’s throat hard enough to make her eyes bulge. It was patently illegal, something Castle would’ve ended with a count, but Alexis had no desire for official assistance so she punched the champ’s trunks twice, then helped herself to a double handful of hair and hauled them both to verticality. This arrangement didn’t last long for Brewster, as the challenger promptly drilled a knee into her fluttering tummy and laid claim to the stooped stunner’s wrists, which she pulled tight beneath Adelaide’s chin in a sort of squashed ‘X’. “I don’t have a real straightjacket on hand,” Suguitan muttered as she twisted them so they were standing back to back, “but this should still be enough to put your crazy ass away.”
The last word was still on her lips when she sat out and THWHUNKED Brewster’s noggin against the point of her left shoulder with a beautiful Straightjacket Neckbreaker. Bounced onto her back by the whiplash force of Alexis’s offense, Adelaide clutched her aching skull and offered little by way of protest when the Penthouse Panther slid into a Crossbody and hooked the far leg for…
STRAIGHTJACKET NECKBREAKER:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=paVfzjAd3nM
ONE…
TWO…
The champ kicked out right at ‘TWO’, earning Castle a dirty look from the challenger. Nick just shrugged, so Suguitan peeled her prey off the canvas and walked her to the nearest corner for a little snuggle time with the ring post. “Don’t seem so scary now, do you?” Alexis’s hands were filled with the zealot’s hair, meaning Brewster couldn’t turn away when her tormentor mounted the second rope to treat her to a faceful of tummy. “Yeah, you’re just another bytch with a gimmick.” she teased in the midst of scuffing Adelaide’s face against her belly. “And chicks with gim--”
“What’s YOUR gimmick these days, Suguitan?” Brewster growled. “Portia’s flunky, Veronica’s sidekick or all purpose wash-NNNNGGHHH!”
The Filipino Phenom smashed a punch into her foe’s hairline and followed it up with several more, each tolled by an appropriately dutiful crowd. ‘TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE!’
Pausing to go back to the hair-holds, Alexis wrenched Adelaide’s head back and leaned in close. “My gimmick? Easy, slut. It’s World ChampAAAAAARRRRRHHHH!”
The Red Mist rose more like a fountain, catching Alexis square in the eyes! Slipping through the other brunette’s posted legs like a cool, evil, breeze, Adelaide reached back through, seized hold of Suguitan’s right wrist and pulled, thus forcing the white-clad stunner to double over with the back of her head wedged tight against the top turnbuckle. With Alexis oblivious to the tragedy headed her way, Brewster pointed her right shoulder at the challenger, then hopped forward and THWHACKED that foot off Suguitan’s defenseless chin.
TURNBUCKLE TRAPPED SUPER KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwpb1ALgWKc
The Super Kick hit hard enough to free Lexy from the awkward position while keeping her mounted on the middle rope, just as Adelaide had hoped. Stomping in behind the stunned battler, the Queen of Nightmares grabbed hold of Alexis’s waistband at her left hip, then reached through those parted stems to secure a vindictive underhanded claw grip on the exotique’s crotch! Suguitan wailed and instinctively grabbed for Adelaide’s intruding hand. She managed to clamp on right about the time the Champion stomped backward out of the buckles to THAWHAM Suguitan down on the back of her head and shoulders with a callously augmented Teardrop Suplex!
MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE TEARDROP SUPLEX:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKgAzKAjbRM
Arrogance reasserting itself the moment the heathen’s suffering began in earnest, Brewster grabbed hold of Alexis’s wrists and pinned them overhead while forcibly grinding a knee against her chest and baring reddened fangs for the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOO…
The partially blind Penthouse Panther couldn’t break her pinned wrists off the canvas, but she used the crown of her head as a base to bridge her shoulders off them despite the knee on her chest.
Appearing somewhat startled by the counter of her pin, Brewster nonetheless reacted quickly, moving to a forward straddling mount of her foe. She had to surrender Lexy’s wrists to do it, and Suguitan flailed them wildly once loosed, but Adelaide delivered a forearm shiver to the Filipino’s jaw to quiet her challenger’s struggles and dropped her flat once more.
“Such a mess,” the Churchgoer hissed, mist dribbling over her lower lip and down her chin before dropping to puddle in the cleft of Alexis’ bosom. “But you play the victim well.”
The champion pressed down on the right bicep of her foe with her left palm, not for the start of a pin-fall attempt but to keep $uguitan’s right arm clear from defending. Adelaide loaded a right fist and fired a Heart Punch into the mist collecting on the sternum of her foe, the breastplate unable to stop the blow from sending an arrhythmia through the challenger’s chest.
Eyes going wide amidst a red mask, Alexis’s body shuddered as her blood pumper skipped a beat or two. The panicked Phenom rocked Brewster from her haunches, nearly spilling the World Champion to her side. The Daughter of Darkness rose to her feet next to the quaking coppery frame of Suguitan and enjoyed the show her signature fist has prompted.
Adelaide found the nearest camera lens. Smirking, she flashed a canine and a wink, undoubtedly to the leader of Eternal Midnight, as if to say ‘mission accomplished’.
The champion dropped to genuflect on the gulping tummy of the still quivering flesh of Alexis. Statement made. A destroyer class threat who many considered a favorite to emerge from the match as FAWN’s top talent left a ‘bloody’ trembling shell through the…

Using the arrogant pin as an escape hatch, Lexy shoved a shoulder up once more, rolling to her chest and pushing to all fours, her heart apparently coming back into rhythm just in time. She wiped rosy spray from her face with the back of a forearm as best she can, trying to regain the better part of her sight.
For her part, the Churchgoer seemed something approximating impressed by Lexy’s survival, but was a long way from concerned. She strode to Suguitan and stood in a forward straddle over the challenger who’s on hands and knees. The brunette dropped her backside into the lower spine of the Filipino, flattening Alexis to her chest, the Penthouse Panther mewling and reaching for the base of her backbone, teeth clenching in pain.
“You will learn humility, heathen,” Adelaide informed. “And humiliation.”
Brewster backpedaled to Suguitan’s boots and plucked the right one off the canvas with both hands, immediately wrapping and twisting like the Churchgoer was trying to remove foot from leg with a vicious Ankle Lock.
Alexis howled in anguish, yanking at her own long charcoal locks, red highlights provided by the champion.
“I suggest you say the word,” Adelaide advised. “You can return to the world of wannabes meekly and modestly.”
Howling, but not surrendering, Alexis twisted from side to side, finally forcing a violent barrel roll that sent the Panther to her back and whipped the startled Brewster into a front flip, the Churchgoer CRASHING to her spine. Showing she still had something left in the tank, the former Associate of VB&A pushed to her feet and hobbled to a corner to collect herself. Meanwhile the Queen of Nightmares defied the challenger and gravity by kipping to her feet and gazing at her injured prey as if Alexis would soon be lunch.
Suguitan limped to the right and the champ cut off her exit. She shuffled to the left, but was halted again, Brewster eliminating the escape route. Closing methodically, predatory smile emerging, perfect pearlies stained pink, Adelaide shot a lightning Toe Kick toward the tummy of her foe, but Suguitan managed to pluck it before the boot sole hits home. Stuck bouncing on her remaining grounded stem, the Churchgoer was forced into a U-turn as the Filipino steered out from the buckles, tugging the captured limb with her.
Throwing the leg to the side, Alexis forced Brewster into a pirouette. She leapt as Adelaide spun toward her and swung a nasty Savate Kick that found its target, boot SLAMMING into the brunette’s temple.
SAVATE KICK:

The stubborn succubus remained upright, drunkenly stumbling but on her feet. The Daughter of Darkness reached a corner, entering back-first. She dropped an arm over the top rope on either side, nearly collapsing between. Before she could recover, Suguitan barreled in, dipping a shoulder to drive it THROUGH Brewster’s gut. However, the sinewy champ vaulted her legs and torso into the air and let Alexis pass under, her foe’s attack finding the unforgiving steel ring post rather than her aching abs.
The sickening ‘THWOCK’ drew an empathetic ‘ooooh’ from the crowd for Lexy. As Adelaide popped to a seat on the top buckle, the challenger pulled away from the impact, grimacing and cradling her damaged limb. She turned to enter full retreat when Adelaide wrapped her legs around Lexy’s neck, clamping down with a Scissors before the Panther could make her escape.
But the maneuver quickly proved a mistake when the powerful Panther wrapped her arms around the calves of the catfighter and hauled Brewster off her perch, the brunette quickly left draping down Alexis’s back as Suguitan walked toward the middle of the ring.
Reaching center stage, Lexy showed off her power, leaning forward, drawing Adelaide with her, and forcing up and over, sending the Churchgoer CAREENING to the canvas with an Inverted Alabama Slam.
INVERTED ALABAMA SLAM:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4bIIRGta7Y
Brewster’s face and chest CRASHED to the deck in ring-rattling fashion, the crowd roaring for the first time in ages. Adelaide absently rolled to her back, but Alexis passed on a pin attempt, instead plucking the Daughter of Darkness off the canvas by her noggin.
Suguitan drew the champion to her feet, going side by side with the title holder, the women headed in opposite directions. Leaning Adelaide backward into the makings of a Dragon Sleeper, Alexis instead lifted her slightly then DROVE her down to the deck with a vicious STO Driver.
STO DRIVER:

Lexy leaned her back into the flattened Brewster, reaching for a hook under the knee of Brewster’s far leg. She curled the champ into a cradle and waited for her first title reign with the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOOO!
Suguitan groaned with the rest of the FAWNatics when Adelaide kicked out, though her reaction was a combination of irritation over the champion’s durability and disquiet with regards to the unpleasant jolt of pain the escape sent through her left shoulder. Knowing damned well the errant Spear would become a huge liability sooner rather than later, Alexis grit her teeth and made a show of plunging both hands into the zealot’s hair before she peeled her off the mat. “The only one getting cast down tonight is you, bytch.” Suguitan rasped in the midst of switching over to a Wristlock. “And I hope you hit every goddamned rock on your way back to the bottom.”
Brewster made a weak play for her hair so Alexis shunted a Kneelift into her belly, then stepped back and sent the Weeping Angel on her way with a rough Irish Whip. Head clearing somewhat as she raced toward the far corner, Adelaide slowed just enough to spin around in a half circle, thus letting her back take the brunt of the impact with the buckles. This proved a perfect example of what folks called a ‘mixed blessing’ as the softened blow to her back was exchanged for a perfect view of the challenger as she charged in and THWHACKED her right heel off Adelaide’s chin with a vicious Yakuza Kick!
CORNER YAKUZA KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_uYdO46E9c
Knees unhinged by the blow, Brewster would’ve tumbled into a facedown sprawl if Suguitan hadn’t caught her in a weary Bear Hug and muscled her back against the buckles. “Stay right there, bytch.” Alexis ground her good shoulder between the Churchgoer’s breasts for emphasis. “I need to show you the view from the Penthouse.” Adelaide didn’t have much to say to that, so the CEO dipped her knees, stuffed her right shoulder against that fluttering tummy and muscled the other brunette into a seat on the top turnbuckle. The effort sent another lick of pain down her left arm, Alexis shook it off before she started to--
“AAAAAARRRHHHHHHH SHHHHHYYYYT!” Suguitan howled in anguish when Brewster snatched her left wrist, pulled that arm up and away from her torso, then shifted to a seat on the ropes just beside the post and dropped backward into the void. Hooking her legs around the challenger’s exposed shoulder in a makeshift Cross Armbreaker, Adelaide poured every bit of her considerable power into shattering Alexis’s will on the spot.
ROPE HUNG CROSS ARMBREAKER:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIYydjanqjE
“SCREAM LOUDER, KITTEN!” Brewster bellowed over the roar of the crowd. “SCREAM AND MAYBE I WON’T BREAK YOUR ARM!”
Alexis answered with a hateful albeit inarticulate scream of rage. Cogence came from Nick Castle, who swatted Adelaide’s knee and barked, “Let her go, Adelaide! ONE! TWO! THREE! FO--”
Surprise from the ref, the fans and especially Brewster when Suguitan hooked onto her attacker’s elbow pad with her free hand and used it to slooooooooooowly power the Queen of Nightmares from six o’clock all the way to, well, midnight. Setting her back on the top buckle before the strain ruined her protesting shoulder, Alexis curled her right hand into a fist and made absolutely no effort to disguise the fist she buried between Brewster’s thighs.
Alexis enjoyed the sound and feeling so much she delivered two more punches before she climbed to the middle rope and stuffed the champ’s head under her good right arm. “You may be a goddamned vampire bat.” she snarled after securing Adelaide’s wings in a tuff Double Underhook. “But bats still go ’crunch’ when a Panther bites down.” With this bit of wisdom delivered she dipped her knees and dropped back for a plunge through the aether that tore Brewster clear of her moorings and deposited her halfway across the ring with canvas-shivering THAWHAM! Bounced to the seat by the power of the Filipino Butterfly, Adelaide had already sprawled to her back by the time Alexis hustled over and collected both legs for an emphatic Back Press good for the…
FILIPINO BUTTERFLY:

ONE…
TWO…
THRENOOOOOOOO!
Brewster popped her hips hard enough to break Suguitan’s S-Grip with a whisper to spare, something the challenger KNEW wouldn’t have happened if not for her damaged left shoulder. “Don’t you dare f*cking quit on me.” Alexis snarled at the protesting joint as she rolled it as best she could. “Not when I’m this close!”
Satisfied it could hold out long enough to contribute to what came next, Suguitan indulged in a fistful of Brewster’s dark hair and slowly forced the both of them to boot leather. A Toe Kick bent Adelaide over double and let Lexy secure the Churchgoer’s noggin in a Front Facelock. This was done with her wounded arm but it didn’t bother Suguitan in spite of the concerned murmur from the crowd. Slinging the champ’s near arm across her shoulders, she reached down and hooked Adelaide’s left leg behind the knee and yanked it off the mat in an exceptionally strong cradle. Elevator primed to take these ladies in opposite directions, Alexis dipped her knees and muscled the Daughter of Darkness high into the NO!
Adelaide’s right hand, which had hung limp and loose through the challenger’s golden ablutions, suddenly clamped down on her foe’s left shoulder and squeezed with all the hatred of Eternal Midnight! Wailing as the Facelock disintegrated, Suguitan instinctively drew her left arm tight to her chest, Brewster was in no mood to let her recuperate and she seized the challenger’s wrist and folded it over and behind Suguitan’s head.
Groans of displeasure from the FAWNatics when the Heart Punch mushroomed Alexis’s left breast with a hateful little PWAAAK! On her feet by nothing less than a grim effort of will, Lexy reached for her opponent’s throat, but Adelaide spun around behind to secure a Cut-Throat with Suguitan’s throbbing left bicep snugged against the hollow of her own throat. Hooking her other arm between the Phenom’s stems, Adelaide muscled the Alexis up across her shoulders in the modified Torture Rack that was a precursor to Blood & Black Lace. Brewster often made a show of turning in a circle tonight however she’d barely finished the lift before she laid out on her side to THWHUNK the back of Suguitan’s head and neck into the unforgiving canvas.
BLOOD & BLACK LACE:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggQhjXPD_fA
Sprawled facedown in the aftermath of the hellacious landing, Alexis couldn’t prevent Adelaide from rolling her onto her back, nor could she stop the zealot from collecting her left arm. Knelt down behind the challenger, Brewster stuffed Suguitan’s left wrist under her right armpit and cupped the exotique’s elbow with her other hand. Gripping her own left wrist for extra leverage, Adelaide stood up and CRAAAAAAAANKED the hold hard enough to force Suguitan to her knees.
“AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH FAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!” Alexis shrieked in the midst of Brewster’s latest torture. Free hand braced against the mat, she could only shake her head ‘no’ when Castle came to check on her.
“What do you say, Alexis? You ok? Should I call it?”
“NO!” she said after an emphatic shake of her head. “NO, I DONEEEERRRRRRRRRRHHHHH!”
Adelaide wrenched her arm again, Alexis’s poor elbow almost pointed directly overhead. “Surrender heathen.” the Queen of Nightmares sneered. “Surrender or you will not return to this ring for a very long time!”
Suguitan barked another refusal, gathered her reserves and forced her other hand off the canvas to send it in search of Brewster’s -- Adelaide planted her feet between the challenger’s splayed legs and neatly dropped to her back, thus bending Alexis’s spine over her posted knees at a terrible angle! Careful to keep her own shoulders off the mat, the Weeping Angel jostled her legs and reefed on the Armbar all while maintaining blistering eye contact with her trapped adversary.
DARKEST DUNGEON:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJkddlflmRI
Locked in the depths of Brewster’s Darkest Dungeon, Alexis fought and writhed for more than fifteen seconds before the agony in her left arm grew too great to endure. “Submit.” she whimpered just loud enough for the champion to hear. “I submit, you bytch.”
Brewster bared her teeth in delight, though she didn’t actually push Suguitan away until the bell sounded and the Announcer confirmed, “Ladies and gentlemen, your winner via submission and STILL FAWN World Champion… ADELAIDE BREWSTER!”
Nick had the strap and offered it to the victorious brunette but Adelaide ignored him until she’d regained her feet, one of which she promptly placed on Suguitan’s neck. Accepting her prize without so much as a murmur of thanks, Adelaide snapped the leather and gold around her waist, then turned to the nearest camera.
“Panthers rend with tooth and claw… yet Midnight comes for one and all.”
She ‘PFWOOOOOSHED’ another cloud of Red Mist into the lens and when the angle changed Brewster was gone, leaving a whole host of FAWNatics and a single wounded Penthouse Panther as the latest tributes on the menacing altar of Eternal Midnight.
Close but no cigar and bridesmaid were now associated more with $uguitan, Incorporated than up and comer and can’t miss. Still, the powers that be seemed to understand they have a commodity for the time being and tonight’s show of support might be the last available to the copper-skinned, destroyer-class beauty.
The flawless exotique waited at “gorilla”, bouncing from one foot to another, battle gear perfectly positioned on her flawless form. Retiring Portia VanBuren had ceased to become a resume builder and was now evidence of one-hit wonder status, particularly if the FAWNatics saw her fail again against a Church member they desperately want evicted from the World Title.
The crowd was plunged into darkness and Suguitan could feel her heart nearly beat out of her chest with the chance to reclaim her once powerful momentum and jump to the top of the organization in one fell, three-second swoop.
The FAWNtron showed a quickly shifting montage of metropolitan skylines from around the world; Chicago, New York, London, Paris, Sydney, Los Angeles, Rio and ultimately Orlando, with the FAWN arena on prominent display. The speakers kicked in as those assembled cheer long and loud, the volume of the former more than loud enough to make sure everyone heard the opening to Fall Out Boy’s ‘Centuries’.
Some legends are told,
Some turn to dust or to gold,
But you will remember me,
Remember me for centuries.
Light returned in time with the first verse, revealing that each side of the ramp was lined with half a dozen burly secret services types in black suits. Backs to the roaring throng, they keep their eyes trained on the entryway, where the usual curtain had been replaced with a set of frosted glass double doors emblazoned with a name grown quite familiar to the Orlando faithful.
$UGUITAN
And just one mistake,
Is all it will take.
Go down in history,
Remember me for centuries.
The CEO of $uguitan Incorporated kicked the doors off their hinges and stormed into view with her arms raised high, a war cry emanating from her lips. Surprised by the show of emotion and perhaps frustration from the usually icy Penthouse Panther, the FAWNatics offer some hopeful applause, though not the ovations to which Alexis had become accustomed.
ALEXIS SUGUITAN:
Noticeably shaken by the less than forceful support, Lexy nevertheless brought both hands to her waist and ‘strapped’ an invisible belt in place. She locked her eyes on the ring and started down the aisle as the Announcer began.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for our Main Event! This match is scheduled for one fall with a sixty minute time limit and is for The FAWN World Championship. Introducing the challenger, hailing from Manila in the Philippines, she stands five feet and eight inches and weighs in at one hundred and thirty-four pounds. She is the Penthouse Panther, the Filipino Phenom; she is ALEXIS SUGUITAAAAAAAAN!”
For tonight’s high stakes battle, the CEO sported a gleaming white two piece that almost glowed against the mellow copper of her complexion. The pro-style trappings continued with matching knee-pads and shin-high boots, the former adorned with the same stylized ‘$’ seen on the double doors. Last but not least was a voluminous sleeveless mink coat, an accessory that would look just as appropriate at a red carpet premiere or adorning the shoulders of some warrior queen as she strode into battle.
Suguitan was all business, passing on slapping hands with the crowd. She ascended the steps and slipped through the ropes to claim the center of the ring as her own, offering senior official Nick Castle her arms and legs for the usual check.
Afterward, the challenger turned from the official and asked Castle to assist in carefully slipping the mink off one shoulder then the other at Alexis’ urging. Its absence revealed one last detail, a glittering golden ‘$’ stretched taut across her sculpted backside, the only remaining reminder of her time as Baby’s number one head hunter.
Alexis doffed off her shades and handed them to Castle. While Nick delivered the fur and the Ray-Bans to a FAWN attendant, the catfighter extraordinaire backed into her home corner to await the Champion and any other members of her loathsome congregation.
“And introducing her opponent--”
“Is someone infinitely more qualified, you puling heathen.” Vitriol rose from the FAWNatics in an almost tangible cloud as the Deacon of Despair, Miranda Wainright stepped into view atop the stage. Dressed in an *almost* immodest purple and black skirt, a gray example of the new ‘Hell is Empty…’ tank-top and her ever present round black hat, Wainright let the miserable wretches tire themselves out before she raised the mic again.
MIRANDA WAINRIGHT:
“At Mayhem my Weeping Angel silenced the forked tongue of Eliza Bliss once and for all. As for Summer Swelter,” she turned her attention to Alexis and offered her a malevolent smile, “tonight this so called Penthouse Panther will be reduced to nothing more than a whimpering rug for the floor of our glorious Mesonoxian Cathedral!”
More boos rained down, but Wainright simply basked until they faded away again. “Now heathens, hold your breath and avert your gaze! Because now I bring to you a woman that hails from Oxrun Station, Connecticut. Who stands at five feet six inches tall and weighs in tonight at one hundred and twenty-five pounds. She is the Daughter of Darkness, the Queen of Nightmares and last but certainly not least, YOUR FAWN World Champion! Drop to your unworthy knees and BEG for the mercy of ADELAIDE BREWSTER!”
The lights died as her name reached the rafters and the speakers answered the call with the soft, eerie opening of Lorde’s ‘Glory and Gore’.
For a moment there was nothing but darkness and pinpricks of cell phone light, then a few lights on either side of the stage ‘whoomped’ on to reveal Miranda waiting in a carpet of ankle deep fog. Still no sign of the third Churchgoer and that was the way it stayed until a cold blue light illuminated the gloomy recession leading to the curtain. A figure swung down from the ceiling of that narrow throat, a figure hanging by her knees from a bar suspended just out of camera view. Arms crossed over her chest, Adelaide Brewster opened her eyes, then twisted loose and landed on her feet just as her anthem warned ‘Now we’re in the ring and we’re coming for blood.’
ADELAIDE BREWSTER:
Flanked by the Messiah of Misery, Adelaide reached to the small of her back and undid the clasp that held the World Title in place. Raising it to shoulder level, she extended her tongue and sloooooooooowly licked the glimmering faceplate, much to the disgust of those in attendance. Brewster paid them absolutely no mind, focusing instead on a brief conference with Wainwright. When it was over Miranda disappeared into the dark and Adelaide started down the ramp with the title slung over one shoulder. For her first title defense the ballistic brunette wore a gleaming black two-piece done in crushed velvet that showed off the power in her hips and shoulders in almost agonizing detail. The look was accented with a clunky black belt complete with a buckle done up as a snarling wolf’s head and matching black boots and pads.
Reaching the ring quickly (because no one quite dared extend a hand) Adelaide slunk under the bottom ropes, pushed to her feet and took possession of the center. Eyes locked on Suguitan, the Daughter of Darkness raised the title to the rafters, threw back her head and ‘FWOOOOOOOOSHED’ a cloud of Crimson Mist into the air. It was still pattering down in fine droplets when the lights came back on, so Castle held his distance until the air was clear.
“You always make such a big deal of elbows and knees, arbiter.” the champ said after she’d handed over the golden prize. “Aren’t you at all concerned about my TEETH?”
“Not as long as they stay away from my neck, Adelaide.”
Brewster licked her lips as she backed into the far corner. “No promises, heathen.”
Alexis didn’t have the closest relationship with the FAWNatics despite her association with the Dangerous Dame, but that didn’t stop her from nodding appreciatively when someone shouted, ‘WHOOP HER ASS, ‘LEXIS!’ just after the opening bell. Adelaide heard it too and smiled, the freshly minted World Champion clearly amused by the encroachment of the Penthouse Panther into her dark domain. Eyes narrowing over the apparent lack of respect, Suguitan rolled her shoulders and stomped out to center ring with every intention of reigniting the spotlight that went out when Eliza Bliss fell to darkness at Mayhem.
Brewster noted the direct approach and matched it with one of her own, Miranda’s Deacon of Destruction strolling straight at her insolent opposition. Considering her penthouse bona fides she’d expected Alexis to greet her with a handful of hair or a hard slap, but the CEO of $uguitan Inc. only raised her hands to chest level and began to circle.
“Can’t lie, I might’ve cheered a little when you folded Blissy in half.” the challenger said. “And I might’ve cheered even louder when you chomped on the side of her neck. But it’s nothing compared to how I’ll celebrate when I show the world you’re nothing but a one and done World Champion.”
Adelaide licked her teeth, making a show of running her tongue over the points of her canines. “You were one of the first to fall in the so called ‘Summer of Bliss’. As I recall, she humbled you en route to her victory at last year’s ‘Mania. So if you couldn’t beat her when she wasn’t even a champion--” The Weeping Angel chested into Alexis hard enough to rock her back on her heels. “How do you expect to beat the woman that stripped her of the gold?”
Alexis caught her balance then got all up in Brewster’s business, the pair of hardbody brunettes going nose to nose amidst a chorus of ‘ooooohhh’s’ form those assembled. “I could tell you.” she said softly. “But I’d rather show you.” Suguitan stepped back and raised her left hand overhead. “If you’re not too scared, that is.”
The Champion didn’t even hesitate, she simply placed her right hand against Alexis’s left and began to squeeze. “You’re the one that’s going to learn the value of fear, heathen.” She raised her other hand, forcing Suguitan to answer the challenge this time around. “By the time I’m finished with you the Penthouse Panther will be twined around my feet, quite domesticated and utterly harmNGH!”
Alexis pressed her free hand against Adelaide’s mouth and swiveled her head with a rude pie-face before hooking onto the Test of Strength. Eager to capitalize on the distraction, Suguitan thumped her chest against the Churchgoer’s before she pushed onto her toes and bore down as hard as she could.
Brewster grimaced as her wrists rolled backward, but she held her ground and eventually negated the challenger’s advantage by wrenching their arms down to three and nine o’clock. Returning Alexis’s chest thump with one of her own, Adelaide added to her foe’s troubles by slooooooowly forcing her arms back at wide, unpleasant angles. “You’re out of your depth, heathen.” Brewster cooed to the straining Filipino. “This is no mere tussle in your underwear for the amusement of bored executives, this is a war for the most important prize in all of FAWNNNGGGHHH!”
Alexis hit her with a short Headbutt to the bridge of the nose, yanked their arms all the way back to high noon and finished with one, two, three Kneelifts to the tummy, the last of which dropped the champion to one knee. Now possessed of an undeniable height advantage, Suguitan went up on tiptoe and pushed down like she meant to snap her opponent’s hands off at the wrists. “Go ahead, bytch.” she chided. “Tell me I’m not ready. Tell me how I’m not ready to beat your ass and take that World Title. But do me a favor, try to tell me to my face!” She pushed down again, the force of her efforts sending a noticeable tremble through Brewster’s forearms and biceps. Content to plant her feet flat now that Adelaide was enduring an unwanted penance, Alexis flipped some hair off her face and waggled her hips directly in front of the champ’s nose. “Looks like you’re going to need a new faith when this match is over.” Suguitan teased over the whistles and catcalls. “Luckily I’ve got an altar in need of a few new worshippers. Why don’t you get started with a little kiss?” She dipped her knees and thrust her hips forward, the challenger blatantly disrespecting her adversary.
Of course Adelaide only twisted her head to one side and kept fighting to regain her footing, which Alexis didn’t appreciate in the slightest. Going up on her toes again, she ‘smecked’ the coppery plank of her tummy against Brewster’s cheek half a dozen times as she demanded, “Do it now or later, doesn’t matter to me. Either way you’re going to worship your new HNGH! HNGH! HHHHGGGHHH!”
The Queen of Nightmares repelled Suguitan’s abdominal encroachment with a series of three quick Headbutts to the belly and she would’ve followed it up with an equally hungry bite if she hadn’t seen Castle lurking close to the action. But the pressure on her arms slackened considerably even without her toothsome extracurriculars, so Brewster got to her feet and immediately wedged herself deep into the challenger’s personal space.
“You aren’t woman enough to even test my faith, let alone break it.” she told the Ferocious Filipino. “And if one of us is destined to play the role of supplicant,” Adelaide spiked a Kneelift into Alexis’s waistband just below her navel. “It’ll be you, kittNNOOFFHHH!”
Suguitan punished the True Believer’s tummy with a Kneelift of her own, not quite a Low Blow, but plenty stiff enough to put a shimmy in Brewster’s buttocks. “Wrong again, slut.” Alexis hissed in her foe’s ear. “But after I win the title I’ll put it on backwards so you’ve got something to look at while I’m riding your facNNNGGHHH AAAAARRRRHHHHHH!”
Adelaide spiked the challenger’s navel with a second Kneelift, then nuzzled close and buried her teeth in the side of Suguitan’s neck! “BITING!” Alexis wailed and stomped her feet as Brewster made her a pre-midnight snack. “DIRTY BYTCH IS BITING!”
“Tattletale.” Adelaide cooed in Alexis’s ear after Castle tapped her on the shoulder to warn about the gnawing. The Penthouse Panther started to reply only to let loose with a pained wail when the other brunette slammed a heavy knee between her thighs. “Didn’t I say you’d make a wonderful supplicant?” Adelaide smirked as Alexis crumpled to her knees. “I believe I did. Just as I believe you’re ready to pay tribute right now, unfortunately I’m not about to have my first title defense end in a three minute squash because my opponent is a sniveling quitter.”
“F*ck you, succu-bytch. We’ll see who’s sniveling when I get my chance to rummage around inside those tacky trunks of--”
Brewster tossed away Suguitan’s left hand, switched her Knucklelock for a Wristlock and used it to yank Alexis forward while simultaneously blasting her right knee into the Filipino’s chin! There was a low THUNK followed by a much louder ‘oooooooohhhhhh!’ as Suguitan flopped onto her back with both arms stretched high overhead. Despite earlier statements to the contary, Brewster dropped down and hooked the far leg in a Back Press that Nick blessed with a…
KNEE STRIKE:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Yeogri0z8w
ONE…
TWO…
Alexis kicked free simultaneous with ‘TWO’ and turned onto her side to avoid a follow-up pin. Adelaide didn’t bother, she only leaned over the woozy exotique and cooed, “Your blood is sweet, my nasty little kitten. But I bet your fear is that much sweeter.” Eager to find out, she filled her hands with Suguitan’s hair and started scraping her off the mat.
Brewster yanked the wobbly Phenom to vertical, snuggling in close from behind. With her arms wrapped tight around Suguitan’s midriff, Adelaide cinched, dipped and heaved Alexis up and over with a ring-rattling German Suplex. The Filipino’s head and shoulders SLAMMED into the thinly-sheathed plywood, the Churchgoer holding onto her challenger.
But Brewster didn’t stack the increasingly glassy-eyed exotique on her shoulders for a count. Instead, the brunette twisted to the right, dragging Alexis along with her. The Penthouse Panther was forced to her feet once more and it took no more than a split-second of verticality for Adelaide to RIP Suguitan off them with another German, this impact getting more of the back of the raven-haired wrestler’s noggin planted.
The brain-scrambling impact made forcing Lexy up a third time more of a chore, but it’s one the champ was more than up to, plucking the copper-skinned beauty up to another captured stance, further from breaking free of Adelaide’s Bear Hug than ever. Showing some wear of her own, it’s a struggle for the titleholder to lift and deposited Suguitan a third time, but into the partial backflip Alexis was sent, RAMMING to an echoing impact.
Brewster kept the Panther stacked this time, taut ass pointed to the rafters as Alexis folded atop herself. Lexy’s legs flailed weakly, most of her senses driven free from the consecutive impacts. The Queen of Nightmares maintains Portia’s former protégé mat-bound for the…
ROLLING GERMAN SUPLEXES:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjzlsxuAGQ4
ONE…
TWO…
The Filipino struggled free of the bridging Brewster, the purveyor of Eternal Midnight leaving a crack of light open as Alexis flopped to her side. Suguitan pushed to all fours but then seemed frozen, her gray matter jostled by the threesome of Suplexes.
Beside her, a smirking Adelaide ran her tongue over the upper half of her perfect pearlies.
“I love a little heat to my meals,” she snarked.
The champ grabbed for Lexy’s neck and Suguitan tried to spin out of trouble, shifting from hands and knees to a seated position from which she could safely rise, but Adelaide skillfully wrapped her arms around Alexis’s throat from behind, clamping on with a Rear Naked Choke. The Churchgoer nuzzled close, tightening her grip, whispering sweet nothings into Suguitan’s left ear before fastening her choppers into the tawny left nape of Lexy’s neck.
Torn between the lack of blood flow to her brain via the choke and the stinging bite, Lexy sparked to life. She forced her way up despite Brewster’s best efforts to keep her challenger seated. Removing her canines and incisors, literally leaving an impression, Adelaide rattled her grip, sending a shimmy through the rubbery stems of the challenger. Alexis managed to stumble to the strands and fall into them, curling her arms around the top cable.
Nick called for the break and, at FOUR, the Churchgoer relinquished her submission, backing away no more than a step after releasing.
Mustering awareness from somewhere, Alexis swung a back fist toward Brewster’s temple but Adelaide ducked under the unexpected effort. The spin left Suguitan face to face with the World Champion. Adelaide wrapped her hands behind Lexy’s neck and leapt into a tuck, pressing tight to the catfighter’s chest. The Damsel of Darkness let gravity do the rest, tugging the challenger into a bosom-flattening Inverted Lungblower that rocked $uguitan, Inc. to its foundations.
INVERTED LUNGBLOWER:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEm3GvgkqAM
Alexis would have ended flat on her back if she hadn’t been sent flying into the buckles behind her. A limp arm on either side was laid atop the uppermost cable, Lexy’s chin sagging to her bruised breasts. Racing toward the staggered challenger, Adelaide leapt and spun into a combination Back Elbow and Splash that took the remaining starch out of the beleaguered Filipino.
As the Churchgoer bounced away from the flaccid Lexy, the raven-haired contender tottered out of the buckles, making it a few steps before she took a header, planting to the canvas right between her dark, cloudy eyes. Alexis absently rolled to her back after the collision, the Penthouse Panther declawed and becoming Exhibit A in Adelaide’s declaration of superiority over all of FAWN.
Languidly, she moved beside the pummeled and prostrate Panther. Brewster sprang, extending her legs. She CRASHED down across coppery midriff with a Senton. Alexis’s eyes bulged as she jackknifed under the gutting impact before settling back to the canvas underneath the champ. Adelaide reached behind her to a hook a leg as she reclined across the breathless Suguitan for the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOOO!
The somewhat lackadaisical pin led to a less than convincing escape from the reeling, nearly bankrupt $uguitan, Inc. The challenger rolled to her chest and slithered along the canvas, trying to sneak out under the bottom rope. Alexis’s body was halfway under and out before an unconcerned Adelaide passed on grasping an ankle and tugged her foe back to the center. Instead, the champion slipped through the ropes, dropped to the floor, and slapped the taste out of Lexy’s mouth with a head turner of a bytchy open hand.
“Don’t even TRY to leave Church early,” the purveyor of Eternal Midnight recommended in cheek-stinging terms and indeed Alexis was convinced enough to roll away from the blow and back into the squared circle where she slowly pushed to her feet while Brewster moved to join her.
Stumbling toward the opposite side of the ring, Alexis had her left shoulder snatched from behind. The Churchgoer spun the Penthouse Panther to face off and, as she did, she bent Lexy’s right arm back at the elbow to clear a path for some cardiac fibrillation, the Queen of Nightmares cocked and ready to deliver a Heart Punch to put the Filipino into a coma.
But before Adelaide could deliver, Suguitan used her free hand for a message of her own. The catfighter showed she’s not quite ready for Mass to be over, raking a set of nails across the big dark eyes of the World Champion.
Brewster screeched in pain, turning and staggering away, rubbing furiously at her peepers. Sensing Alexis’ approach from behind she pirouetted into a blind swing-and-miss right cross, Suguitan’s recovery effort from the beating she’s been taking, saving her from a fist to the chin. Instead, the teary-eyed Churchgoer wobbled sightlessly into a brutal Spin Kick to the back of her skull from the challenger.
SPIN KICK:

Still, the champion remained upright, calling on some higher or lower power to keep her feet rooted to the deck. The Penthouse Panther proceeded to sink her digits into the thinly-covered bosom of the Churchgoer, gashing and squeezing with a pair of Breast Claws like only the Filipino catfighter could apply.
With her foe’s palms clenching and twisting the tender tissue, the champion winced through the pain to raise her arms to either side of Lexy’s skull. Before Adelaide could ring some ears with a clap of her hands, Suguitan released and LAID into the nape of Brewster’s neck with a wicked series of Mongolian Chops. Alexis managed a half dozen to each side before the battered Brewster melted to her haunches, kneeling before her copper-skinned idol.
“Yeah, that’s right bat-skank,” Suguitan huffed as she filled her hands with the zealot’s dark hair, “get on your knees and stay there until I say otherwise.” Too stunned from the Chops to offer anything cogent by way of reply, Brewster remained silent until the challenger reeled her into a Standing Headscissors and began to squeeeeeeeeze!
“Errrhhh gnnnnhhhhhh!” Adelaide swatted, then raked at Alexis’s strong stems to little effect.
Pleased by this hapless wriggling, Suguitan sent several more pulses through the champ’s trapped noggin before she leaned forward and cinched both arms around her waist. Smirking as she gouged her knotted hands into opposing tummy, ’Lexy set planted her feet and chided, “Just pretend the ring is your heart… and your head is a stake.”
With that she dipped her knees and muscled Brewster upsidedoNO! Adelaide kicked her legs wildly and though she wasn’t able to escape the Scissors & Waistlock the resistance was more than enough to return her to terra firma. Not about to abandon such a dominant position, Suguitan broke the handhold, placed her fingertips just above the line of Adelaide’s togs and raked the World Champion all the way to her shoulders, not just once, but fully half a dozen times!
The Weeping Angel protested each and every one of these stinging striations, alas mere mewls alone weren’t enough to free her from the talons of the Penthouse Panther, in fact Adelaide’s discomfort spurred Suguitan to put even more ‘ooomph’ behind successive swipes. Returning to the Waistlock once she’d broken in her new scratching post, Alexis squeezed harder than before when she gathered her reserves and muscled the other brunette ass over teakettle. Or at least she would have if Adelaide hadn’t paid her back with a well timed rake across the back of her attacker’s thighs.
“Ok bytch, that’s how you want it? That’s how you’ll get it.”
Breaking the Waistlock following the strongest constriction yet, she knotted her hands into a single fist, raised the makeshift club overhead and THWHUMPED it into the small of Brewster’s back once, twice, thrice! The heavy force of those shots brought Adelaide’s arms up somewhat, so Suguitan slipped her hands under the Churchgoer’s biceps, however instead of simply locking her hands a third time she hooked her fingers into the leg-holes of Brewster’s velvet briefs and yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanked until they were far more immodest than Adelaide (or Miranda) would’ve preferred.
The wedgie got an appreciative roar from the FAWNatics as it so often did, yet Alexis knew trunk-work alone wouldn’t bring home that ten pounds of leather and gold, which was why she used her salacious grip to hoist / flip Brewster onto her shoulders in the stall position for a Powerbomb. Just like that she cinched her arms around Adelaide’s thighs and dropped to her tush to THAWHAM the champ down full force courtesy of the Panty Peeler. Scootching in close to ensure her tummy was snug against Brewster’s hurtin’ back, Suguitan hooked her legs over the other brunette’s biceps to keep her down for the…

THRNOOOO!
The Queen of Nightmares jerked loose with half a second to spare which would’ve irritated Alexis more if Brewster hadn’t immediately flopped onto her tummy to better pluck at that savage wedgie. “What’s the matter, all the mysterious powers of midnight can’t help you fix a damned wedgie?” Suguitan taunted as she hauled Adelaide to a seat with a double handful of hair. “Then I guess it won’t be able to help you with this either.”
Left knee posted on the mat, she sidled the right in against Adelaide’s back, all the better to bend her backward over the posted joint. Brewster didn’t just sit there and take it of course, she immediately scrabbled and pushed at the challenger’s chin, so Lexy cupped her left hand over the other woman’s chin and pushed down to add another layer of discomfort to the hold.
NECK & BACK STRETCH:

Noting the strain in Brewster’s neck and back, Castle strode over and asked, “How you doing, Adelaide? Need me to--”
“Don’t bother to ask her just yet.” Alexis chirped. Once she had Nick’s attention, she fashioned her right hand into a spade and raaaaaaaked Adelaide’s exposed abdominals before securing a Collins-level Belly Claw. Eyes sparkling as Brewster wriggled and groaned, Alexis said, “NOW you can ask her.”
“What do you say, Adelaide?” the zebra repeated, uninterrupted this time. “Need me to call it?”
“Never!” the Daughter of Darkness barked. “It’ll take more than a low-rent catfighter to take that title from AAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHH!”
Suguitan shifted her focus south with a white-knuckled grip centered on her rival’s briefs. “Watch your mouth, bytch.” she growled. “Or I’ll tear you into so many pieces not even Miranda could resurrect your sorry GUUURRRHHHK!”
Brewster reached up and grabbed Suguitan’s throat hard enough to make her eyes bulge. It was patently illegal, something Castle would’ve ended with a count, but Alexis had no desire for official assistance so she punched the champ’s trunks twice, then helped herself to a double handful of hair and hauled them both to verticality. This arrangement didn’t last long for Brewster, as the challenger promptly drilled a knee into her fluttering tummy and laid claim to the stooped stunner’s wrists, which she pulled tight beneath Adelaide’s chin in a sort of squashed ‘X’. “I don’t have a real straightjacket on hand,” Suguitan muttered as she twisted them so they were standing back to back, “but this should still be enough to put your crazy ass away.”
The last word was still on her lips when she sat out and THWHUNKED Brewster’s noggin against the point of her left shoulder with a beautiful Straightjacket Neckbreaker. Bounced onto her back by the whiplash force of Alexis’s offense, Adelaide clutched her aching skull and offered little by way of protest when the Penthouse Panther slid into a Crossbody and hooked the far leg for…
STRAIGHTJACKET NECKBREAKER:

ONE…
TWO…
The champ kicked out right at ‘TWO’, earning Castle a dirty look from the challenger. Nick just shrugged, so Suguitan peeled her prey off the canvas and walked her to the nearest corner for a little snuggle time with the ring post. “Don’t seem so scary now, do you?” Alexis’s hands were filled with the zealot’s hair, meaning Brewster couldn’t turn away when her tormentor mounted the second rope to treat her to a faceful of tummy. “Yeah, you’re just another bytch with a gimmick.” she teased in the midst of scuffing Adelaide’s face against her belly. “And chicks with gim--”
“What’s YOUR gimmick these days, Suguitan?” Brewster growled. “Portia’s flunky, Veronica’s sidekick or all purpose wash-NNNNGGHHH!”
The Filipino Phenom smashed a punch into her foe’s hairline and followed it up with several more, each tolled by an appropriately dutiful crowd. ‘TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE!’
Pausing to go back to the hair-holds, Alexis wrenched Adelaide’s head back and leaned in close. “My gimmick? Easy, slut. It’s World ChampAAAAAARRRRRHHHH!”
The Red Mist rose more like a fountain, catching Alexis square in the eyes! Slipping through the other brunette’s posted legs like a cool, evil, breeze, Adelaide reached back through, seized hold of Suguitan’s right wrist and pulled, thus forcing the white-clad stunner to double over with the back of her head wedged tight against the top turnbuckle. With Alexis oblivious to the tragedy headed her way, Brewster pointed her right shoulder at the challenger, then hopped forward and THWHACKED that foot off Suguitan’s defenseless chin.
TURNBUCKLE TRAPPED SUPER KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwpb1ALgWKc
The Super Kick hit hard enough to free Lexy from the awkward position while keeping her mounted on the middle rope, just as Adelaide had hoped. Stomping in behind the stunned battler, the Queen of Nightmares grabbed hold of Alexis’s waistband at her left hip, then reached through those parted stems to secure a vindictive underhanded claw grip on the exotique’s crotch! Suguitan wailed and instinctively grabbed for Adelaide’s intruding hand. She managed to clamp on right about the time the Champion stomped backward out of the buckles to THAWHAM Suguitan down on the back of her head and shoulders with a callously augmented Teardrop Suplex!
MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE TEARDROP SUPLEX:

Arrogance reasserting itself the moment the heathen’s suffering began in earnest, Brewster grabbed hold of Alexis’s wrists and pinned them overhead while forcibly grinding a knee against her chest and baring reddened fangs for the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRNOOO…
The partially blind Penthouse Panther couldn’t break her pinned wrists off the canvas, but she used the crown of her head as a base to bridge her shoulders off them despite the knee on her chest.
Appearing somewhat startled by the counter of her pin, Brewster nonetheless reacted quickly, moving to a forward straddling mount of her foe. She had to surrender Lexy’s wrists to do it, and Suguitan flailed them wildly once loosed, but Adelaide delivered a forearm shiver to the Filipino’s jaw to quiet her challenger’s struggles and dropped her flat once more.
“Such a mess,” the Churchgoer hissed, mist dribbling over her lower lip and down her chin before dropping to puddle in the cleft of Alexis’ bosom. “But you play the victim well.”
The champion pressed down on the right bicep of her foe with her left palm, not for the start of a pin-fall attempt but to keep $uguitan’s right arm clear from defending. Adelaide loaded a right fist and fired a Heart Punch into the mist collecting on the sternum of her foe, the breastplate unable to stop the blow from sending an arrhythmia through the challenger’s chest.
Eyes going wide amidst a red mask, Alexis’s body shuddered as her blood pumper skipped a beat or two. The panicked Phenom rocked Brewster from her haunches, nearly spilling the World Champion to her side. The Daughter of Darkness rose to her feet next to the quaking coppery frame of Suguitan and enjoyed the show her signature fist has prompted.
Adelaide found the nearest camera lens. Smirking, she flashed a canine and a wink, undoubtedly to the leader of Eternal Midnight, as if to say ‘mission accomplished’.
The champion dropped to genuflect on the gulping tummy of the still quivering flesh of Alexis. Statement made. A destroyer class threat who many considered a favorite to emerge from the match as FAWN’s top talent left a ‘bloody’ trembling shell through the…
ONE…
TWO…
THRENOOO!
Using the arrogant pin as an escape hatch, Lexy shoved a shoulder up once more, rolling to her chest and pushing to all fours, her heart apparently coming back into rhythm just in time. She wiped rosy spray from her face with the back of a forearm as best she can, trying to regain the better part of her sight.
For her part, the Churchgoer seemed something approximating impressed by Lexy’s survival, but was a long way from concerned. She strode to Suguitan and stood in a forward straddle over the challenger who’s on hands and knees. The brunette dropped her backside into the lower spine of the Filipino, flattening Alexis to her chest, the Penthouse Panther mewling and reaching for the base of her backbone, teeth clenching in pain.
“You will learn humility, heathen,” Adelaide informed. “And humiliation.”
Brewster backpedaled to Suguitan’s boots and plucked the right one off the canvas with both hands, immediately wrapping and twisting like the Churchgoer was trying to remove foot from leg with a vicious Ankle Lock.
Alexis howled in anguish, yanking at her own long charcoal locks, red highlights provided by the champion.
“I suggest you say the word,” Adelaide advised. “You can return to the world of wannabes meekly and modestly.”
Howling, but not surrendering, Alexis twisted from side to side, finally forcing a violent barrel roll that sent the Panther to her back and whipped the startled Brewster into a front flip, the Churchgoer CRASHING to her spine. Showing she still had something left in the tank, the former Associate of VB&A pushed to her feet and hobbled to a corner to collect herself. Meanwhile the Queen of Nightmares defied the challenger and gravity by kipping to her feet and gazing at her injured prey as if Alexis would soon be lunch.
Suguitan limped to the right and the champ cut off her exit. She shuffled to the left, but was halted again, Brewster eliminating the escape route. Closing methodically, predatory smile emerging, perfect pearlies stained pink, Adelaide shot a lightning Toe Kick toward the tummy of her foe, but Suguitan managed to pluck it before the boot sole hits home. Stuck bouncing on her remaining grounded stem, the Churchgoer was forced into a U-turn as the Filipino steered out from the buckles, tugging the captured limb with her.
Throwing the leg to the side, Alexis forced Brewster into a pirouette. She leapt as Adelaide spun toward her and swung a nasty Savate Kick that found its target, boot SLAMMING into the brunette’s temple.
SAVATE KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=095wR9stgCM
The stubborn succubus remained upright, drunkenly stumbling but on her feet. The Daughter of Darkness reached a corner, entering back-first. She dropped an arm over the top rope on either side, nearly collapsing between. Before she could recover, Suguitan barreled in, dipping a shoulder to drive it THROUGH Brewster’s gut. However, the sinewy champ vaulted her legs and torso into the air and let Alexis pass under, her foe’s attack finding the unforgiving steel ring post rather than her aching abs.
The sickening ‘THWOCK’ drew an empathetic ‘ooooh’ from the crowd for Lexy. As Adelaide popped to a seat on the top buckle, the challenger pulled away from the impact, grimacing and cradling her damaged limb. She turned to enter full retreat when Adelaide wrapped her legs around Lexy’s neck, clamping down with a Scissors before the Panther could make her escape.
But the maneuver quickly proved a mistake when the powerful Panther wrapped her arms around the calves of the catfighter and hauled Brewster off her perch, the brunette quickly left draping down Alexis’s back as Suguitan walked toward the middle of the ring.
Reaching center stage, Lexy showed off her power, leaning forward, drawing Adelaide with her, and forcing up and over, sending the Churchgoer CAREENING to the canvas with an Inverted Alabama Slam.
INVERTED ALABAMA SLAM:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4bIIRGta7Y
Brewster’s face and chest CRASHED to the deck in ring-rattling fashion, the crowd roaring for the first time in ages. Adelaide absently rolled to her back, but Alexis passed on a pin attempt, instead plucking the Daughter of Darkness off the canvas by her noggin.
Suguitan drew the champion to her feet, going side by side with the title holder, the women headed in opposite directions. Leaning Adelaide backward into the makings of a Dragon Sleeper, Alexis instead lifted her slightly then DROVE her down to the deck with a vicious STO Driver.
STO DRIVER:

Lexy leaned her back into the flattened Brewster, reaching for a hook under the knee of Brewster’s far leg. She curled the champ into a cradle and waited for her first title reign with the…
ONE…

THRNOOOO!
Suguitan groaned with the rest of the FAWNatics when Adelaide kicked out, though her reaction was a combination of irritation over the champion’s durability and disquiet with regards to the unpleasant jolt of pain the escape sent through her left shoulder. Knowing damned well the errant Spear would become a huge liability sooner rather than later, Alexis grit her teeth and made a show of plunging both hands into the zealot’s hair before she peeled her off the mat. “The only one getting cast down tonight is you, bytch.” Suguitan rasped in the midst of switching over to a Wristlock. “And I hope you hit every goddamned rock on your way back to the bottom.”
Brewster made a weak play for her hair so Alexis shunted a Kneelift into her belly, then stepped back and sent the Weeping Angel on her way with a rough Irish Whip. Head clearing somewhat as she raced toward the far corner, Adelaide slowed just enough to spin around in a half circle, thus letting her back take the brunt of the impact with the buckles. This proved a perfect example of what folks called a ‘mixed blessing’ as the softened blow to her back was exchanged for a perfect view of the challenger as she charged in and THWHACKED her right heel off Adelaide’s chin with a vicious Yakuza Kick!
CORNER YAKUZA KICK:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_uYdO46E9c
Knees unhinged by the blow, Brewster would’ve tumbled into a facedown sprawl if Suguitan hadn’t caught her in a weary Bear Hug and muscled her back against the buckles. “Stay right there, bytch.” Alexis ground her good shoulder between the Churchgoer’s breasts for emphasis. “I need to show you the view from the Penthouse.” Adelaide didn’t have much to say to that, so the CEO dipped her knees, stuffed her right shoulder against that fluttering tummy and muscled the other brunette into a seat on the top turnbuckle. The effort sent another lick of pain down her left arm, Alexis shook it off before she started to--
“AAAAAARRRHHHHHHH SHHHHHYYYYT!” Suguitan howled in anguish when Brewster snatched her left wrist, pulled that arm up and away from her torso, then shifted to a seat on the ropes just beside the post and dropped backward into the void. Hooking her legs around the challenger’s exposed shoulder in a makeshift Cross Armbreaker, Adelaide poured every bit of her considerable power into shattering Alexis’s will on the spot.
ROPE HUNG CROSS ARMBREAKER:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIYydjanqjE
“SCREAM LOUDER, KITTEN!” Brewster bellowed over the roar of the crowd. “SCREAM AND MAYBE I WON’T BREAK YOUR ARM!”
Alexis answered with a hateful albeit inarticulate scream of rage. Cogence came from Nick Castle, who swatted Adelaide’s knee and barked, “Let her go, Adelaide! ONE! TWO! THREE! FO--”
Surprise from the ref, the fans and especially Brewster when Suguitan hooked onto her attacker’s elbow pad with her free hand and used it to slooooooooooowly power the Queen of Nightmares from six o’clock all the way to, well, midnight. Setting her back on the top buckle before the strain ruined her protesting shoulder, Alexis curled her right hand into a fist and made absolutely no effort to disguise the fist she buried between Brewster’s thighs.
Alexis enjoyed the sound and feeling so much she delivered two more punches before she climbed to the middle rope and stuffed the champ’s head under her good right arm. “You may be a goddamned vampire bat.” she snarled after securing Adelaide’s wings in a tuff Double Underhook. “But bats still go ’crunch’ when a Panther bites down.” With this bit of wisdom delivered she dipped her knees and dropped back for a plunge through the aether that tore Brewster clear of her moorings and deposited her halfway across the ring with canvas-shivering THAWHAM! Bounced to the seat by the power of the Filipino Butterfly, Adelaide had already sprawled to her back by the time Alexis hustled over and collected both legs for an emphatic Back Press good for the…
FILIPINO BUTTERFLY:

THRENOOOOOOOO!
Brewster popped her hips hard enough to break Suguitan’s S-Grip with a whisper to spare, something the challenger KNEW wouldn’t have happened if not for her damaged left shoulder. “Don’t you dare f*cking quit on me.” Alexis snarled at the protesting joint as she rolled it as best she could. “Not when I’m this close!”
Satisfied it could hold out long enough to contribute to what came next, Suguitan indulged in a fistful of Brewster’s dark hair and slowly forced the both of them to boot leather. A Toe Kick bent Adelaide over double and let Lexy secure the Churchgoer’s noggin in a Front Facelock. This was done with her wounded arm but it didn’t bother Suguitan in spite of the concerned murmur from the crowd. Slinging the champ’s near arm across her shoulders, she reached down and hooked Adelaide’s left leg behind the knee and yanked it off the mat in an exceptionally strong cradle. Elevator primed to take these ladies in opposite directions, Alexis dipped her knees and muscled the Daughter of Darkness high into the NO!
Adelaide’s right hand, which had hung limp and loose through the challenger’s golden ablutions, suddenly clamped down on her foe’s left shoulder and squeezed with all the hatred of Eternal Midnight! Wailing as the Facelock disintegrated, Suguitan instinctively drew her left arm tight to her chest, Brewster was in no mood to let her recuperate and she seized the challenger’s wrist and folded it over and behind Suguitan’s head.
Groans of displeasure from the FAWNatics when the Heart Punch mushroomed Alexis’s left breast with a hateful little PWAAAK! On her feet by nothing less than a grim effort of will, Lexy reached for her opponent’s throat, but Adelaide spun around behind to secure a Cut-Throat with Suguitan’s throbbing left bicep snugged against the hollow of her own throat. Hooking her other arm between the Phenom’s stems, Adelaide muscled the Alexis up across her shoulders in the modified Torture Rack that was a precursor to Blood & Black Lace. Brewster often made a show of turning in a circle tonight however she’d barely finished the lift before she laid out on her side to THWHUNK the back of Suguitan’s head and neck into the unforgiving canvas.
BLOOD & BLACK LACE:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggQhjXPD_fA
Sprawled facedown in the aftermath of the hellacious landing, Alexis couldn’t prevent Adelaide from rolling her onto her back, nor could she stop the zealot from collecting her left arm. Knelt down behind the challenger, Brewster stuffed Suguitan’s left wrist under her right armpit and cupped the exotique’s elbow with her other hand. Gripping her own left wrist for extra leverage, Adelaide stood up and CRAAAAAAAANKED the hold hard enough to force Suguitan to her knees.
“AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH FAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!” Alexis shrieked in the midst of Brewster’s latest torture. Free hand braced against the mat, she could only shake her head ‘no’ when Castle came to check on her.
“What do you say, Alexis? You ok? Should I call it?”
“NO!” she said after an emphatic shake of her head. “NO, I DONEEEERRRRRRRRRRHHHHH!”
Adelaide wrenched her arm again, Alexis’s poor elbow almost pointed directly overhead. “Surrender heathen.” the Queen of Nightmares sneered. “Surrender or you will not return to this ring for a very long time!”
Suguitan barked another refusal, gathered her reserves and forced her other hand off the canvas to send it in search of Brewster’s -- Adelaide planted her feet between the challenger’s splayed legs and neatly dropped to her back, thus bending Alexis’s spine over her posted knees at a terrible angle! Careful to keep her own shoulders off the mat, the Weeping Angel jostled her legs and reefed on the Armbar all while maintaining blistering eye contact with her trapped adversary.
DARKEST DUNGEON:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJkddlflmRI
Locked in the depths of Brewster’s Darkest Dungeon, Alexis fought and writhed for more than fifteen seconds before the agony in her left arm grew too great to endure. “Submit.” she whimpered just loud enough for the champion to hear. “I submit, you bytch.”
Brewster bared her teeth in delight, though she didn’t actually push Suguitan away until the bell sounded and the Announcer confirmed, “Ladies and gentlemen, your winner via submission and STILL FAWN World Champion… ADELAIDE BREWSTER!”
Nick had the strap and offered it to the victorious brunette but Adelaide ignored him until she’d regained her feet, one of which she promptly placed on Suguitan’s neck. Accepting her prize without so much as a murmur of thanks, Adelaide snapped the leather and gold around her waist, then turned to the nearest camera.
“Panthers rend with tooth and claw… yet Midnight comes for one and all.”
She ‘PFWOOOOOSHED’ another cloud of Red Mist into the lens and when the angle changed Brewster was gone, leaving a whole host of FAWNatics and a single wounded Penthouse Panther as the latest tributes on the menacing altar of Eternal Midnight.
