GASTER vs Gallium Heart - Growing Frustration

Clara sat by herself in the locker room, pondering about her upcoming match up...and about her AFW career up until this point.

Recently, she had been on the end of very humiliating losses to people like Alaina Sanders and Cicilia De'Reighnhardt, losing to them with very little...or no offense whatsoever.

She did have some wins to her name, but 1 came from a tag match with Alice...when it came to her singles record to AFW, it was easy to see that the Brit was definitely cemented as a jobber to the AFW fans...someone who gets booked to make others look good. Her other, her sole singles win against her rival, Triin Liiv, was not enough to sway people's minds of her, people calling the win off as a fluke.

Lo and behold, Clara was facing a lady who was in a similar predicament - Gallium Heart. She had hardly a win to her name, and more often than not, ended up on the end of brutal squashes from stronger wrestlers.

It wasn't difficult to see where AFW management was going with the match, especially since it was slam dunk in the middle of tonight's show, in between 2, seemingly more exciting matches for the crowd.

Needless to say, the Shadow Lord wasn't really excited to wrestle tonight...but work was work, she was here now, and no matter if she won or lost, she would still get a good check for the match...

Giving a deep sigh, the Shadow Lord put her mask on, and would go to the gorilla position, to await the start of her entrance.

Her theme song began playing throughout the crowd, as she would exit to little fanfare (the management even asking whether they could cut the fog for tonight, not wanting to waste resources). Not even in the mood to do her trademark laugh, GASTER would just walk down the ramp, with clenched fists. Even if her emotions were masked, the frustration was clear to see in her body language.

She would quickly roll into the ring, and take off her hoodie, not even in the mood to do her usual promo routine, with even the ref being surprised at how down she was tonight. She settled in the corner, and awaited Gallium's arrival. While not excited to wrestle, victory was still on her mind, and if she didn't want to further go down in the fans' judgement of her skills, she HAD to win tonight...

In the back, Gallium Heart stood naked, stretching and making sure she was nice and limber for her match, before she slipped on her tight, form fitting one piece, and checked herself out in the mirror. She loved the outfit really. Sure, it could tear sometimes, and the way it clung to her butt and small, yet firm breasts made it leave little to the imagination...but she liked that. Thoughts of entering the hentai division again flew through her head, though she shook them away, and made her way to the entrance area.

It had been nearly a year since Gallium was last seen in the AFW, her last match being a Hardcore Title Match at Summer Splash against the far bigger and scarier Juno. Gallium had lost, of course, big surprise, but she had shown heart, as was her namesake, making Juno bleed and landing several big hits of her own in the process.

Indeed, the cute pink haired girl, originally just known for being Silver Ace's rookie, was developing a reputation of sorts, being daring, or just crazy, enough to punch far above her weight class and do some crazy things to try to win, though non of it had worked so far. Ace had tried to talk her out of doing such things, and, given her record, even not wrestling anymore, but Gallium persisted. She could win. She knew she could, and she was going to prove it.

Her music started, and she made her way onto the entrance ramp, getting a decent reception, not an uproar or anything, but a polite applause as she stepped onto the ramp. Tonight, she was excited. Sure, her opponent was known as "the Shadow Lord" or something, but from what she heard, the girl was her size, if not a bit smaller, and had almost a bad a record as she did. Finally, an opponent who didn't completely outsize her!

She rolled into the ring, bare feet hitting the mat as she stood up, and quickly gave a polite wave to her masked opponent, noting that she had a good couple of inches in height on the other girl.

"Hi there! I'm Gallium! It's nice to be facing you today!"

As Gallium made her way down the ramp, Clara was actually surprised by how cute her opponent looked. Innocent face, adorable smile...slightly taller than she expected...she couldn't help but blush a little as she made her way into the ring, and rolled in.

Her opponent's energy actually managed to get her a bit more excited for the match, as she cutely waved and smiled towards her.

"...hmm...eh, why not? Let's give it a bit of a show!", she would think before speaking to Gallium:

"Mwahahahaha! Foolish mortal! There won't be any niceties about facing me today, for you are in a nightmare of your life!", she would say towards Gallium with her usual excitement of playing the Shadow Lord character!

Well...that was different. This must be that "Shadow Lord" thing she had heard about.
Though, granted, still better than the usual reception she got. Normally she got people twice her size screaming about breaking her in half.

Still, couldn't hurt to play along. She stood tall, hand on her hip, pointing her finger out at the smaller girl in the mask. "Oh yeah? Well...I'm gonna...um...I'm gonna end this nightmare by putting you to sleep!"

That was good right? She hoped that was good. Either way, she got her arms up in a classic wrestling stance, eager for the bell to ring so they could start!

"Mwahahahahahahaha! You cannot make this nightmare go away so easily!", GASTER would reply back to the pinkette, getting into a grappling position, right as:

DING DING DING!

The bell would ring to mark the beginning of the match!

The Shadow Lord would carefully circle the ring with her foe. It wouldn't do to underestimate even a weak foe.

If neither of them executed any rash moves, the two would meet in the middle of the ring, carefully entangling with each other in a Collar and Elbow Tie Up!

Was Gaster trying to be adorable? Because Gaster was kinda being adorable. The whole "Shadow Lord" thing, the theatrics, it was hard for it to be intimidating coming from a girl her size. Still, must be fun to do.


"Alright Shadow Lord, lets see what you got!"


Gallium declared, before meeting Gaster in the middle of the ring and locking up with her, the two small girls pushing against each other.



Feeling more confident than in any of her other matches, Gallium would shove hard against her cute opponent, trying to push her back towards her corner!

With the two engaging in a tie up, GASTER would attempt to push at Gallium with everything she had, trying to push the bigger girl into a corner!

...however, no matter how much she tried, she was unable to even budge Gallium towards the corner! Quite the contrary, it seemed like GASTER was the one getting overpowered!

" N-noo! Grrrrrrrrrrh!!!, she would growl, trying to push forward with all her might, believing she could overpower the pinkette!

It was going well so far, the pinky pushing Gaster back, despite the girls attempts to push back...until the masked woman pushed back with everything she had, stopping Gallium from pushing her back, and, to the taller rookies surprise, actually making the girl take a couple steps back.

"Uh oh, she's pushing back. Quick, brain, what do!?"

Brain: "Do the thing!"

"What thing!?"

Brain: Do the flippy flip!"

Following her brains idea, Gallium stopped pushing against Gaster and let her momentum push her forward...while she fell back, pulling Gaster down with her and getting her slim leg up and pressing her foot against the masked womans stomach, trying to roll back and throw her overhead with a monkey flip, fueled by Gaster's own momentum!

"A-ha!", GASTER would happily think in her head, as she managed to overpower her pinkette rival, believing she could easily overpower her all the way towards the corner!

...but just as suddenly as she pushed Gallium forward, the cute wrestler would figure a way around the Shadow Lord's strength, using it against her as she flipped onto her back, and threw the chuuni backwards with the force of her push for a Monkey Flip!

"AAAAAAAAH!", GASTER screamed as she impacted the canvas!

Success! With a simple throw, she had planted Gaster on her back with ease! But that wasn't all! With a quick back roll, Gallium planted her knees on either side of the smaller womans body, her butt landing firmly on the other girls waist, before she quickly pinned her shoulders down, leaning her face down to smile as the masked foe!

"Ha! Pinned ya!"

she yelled, as the ref girl dropped down and slapped at the mat, counting out "ONE!"
