Season Eleven – Episode Five

The FFW logo flashes across the screen as we see rain soaked streets as we a man head down down a dark alley when “Ugly” by The Exies begins to play. The camera spins around as we see a woman following him down the alley with a barbed wire baseball bat, that being Kanna Haroshi before she takes a swing, causing him to spin around and show the redheaded Lollipop swing with a pair of brass knucks. He spins back, and a ninja wielding a katana in Velvet Raven is shown advancing. He takes off and turns a corner to find a shrieking woman holding a goblet that shatters at her voice in Helga before the lens on the camera breaks and he’s off and running again. From there, he runs into the petite redhead in Leah O’Quinn with a brilliant smile waving and signaling for the man to get behind her as someone taps your shoulder, causing you to turn as a camera goes off in your face held by Lana Star before she lobs the camera at his head. The man ducks and runs off, straight into a police officer with a sigh of relief before he points behind him at what he saw as the officer begins to pull off a mask, revealing the smirking form of Marla Lee. The man takes off away as the women begin to follow him as rain begins to pour as he runs past Fiona with a grin on her face. He runs past her into an abandoned building with the Future Shock Season 11 logo painted on the wall.

The first image we see is footage captured earlier in the evening where we find Lollipop doubled over a driver’s side window of a car with glass shattered into pieces on the pavement as medics begin to extract her and work on her before we cut to the live broadcast inside the Future Shock Arena as Mark has a grim look on his face.

Mark: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fifth episode of Future Shock’s eleventh season. What you just saw took place earlier tonight when Lollipop was found thrown through a car window by persons as yet unknown. We don’t have a lot of details on what took place other than the obvious, but Lollipop will not be cleared to compete tonight and as a result, she has been eliminated from Future Shock. The fan vote this week will not have any elimination as a result.

Mark glances to the side as he is joined by the reigning FFW Future Shock Champion Casey Atherton.

Mark: This week, I am going to be joined by Casey Atherton as we get ready to call what is likely to be one of the most brutal matches we have ever seen in Future Shock. Our thoughts and well wishes go out to Lollipop, and I hope we will find out more about what happened earlier tonight.

Casey: It’s always sad to see an elimination due to someone being unable to compete - for whatever reason. And this has to be a pretty brutal attack, look at some of the things Lollipop went through to get to this stage and still got back up afterwards. If she knows her attacker then I wouldn’t want to be in there ring boots when she goes looking for revenge.

The camera heads towards the ring in the Future Shock Arena, where we see the cage is already set up with various weapons hanging from the interior wall and reams of barbwire covering the top of the cage as well.

Mark: There you see it, folks. One of the most insidious cages I’ve ever seen. No doors, the only way out is over the top of the cage and to the floor, but as you can see….that’s no easy trek to make.

Casey: You’re right Mark. It’s a pretty safe bet that whoever leaves this match as the winner will have shed blood to do so. I don’t think I’ve seen such a malicious looking structure.

The fans around the ring watch intently as all three women are already inside the cage. Referee Melinda Davis calls for the bell. All three women eye one another as Lana makes the first move, darting across the gap and catching Velvet with a dropkick to the knee that stumbles her slightly. Star begins to unload with straight right hands, taking her down to the mat before bouncing off the near side ropes and landing a bulldog. Star hops back to her feet, jerking a kendo stick off the wall. And as Raven starts to sit up, she cracks it across her back with a loud snap! The ninja falls forward as Lana mounts her back, pulling the stick under her neck and pulling back with it in a choke. Meanwhile, Marla shrugs her shoulders and begins to head for the cage wall to make her ascent.

Casey: Lana’s showing a real vicious streak with that Kendo stick and the Ninja is getting the full force of her fury.

Mark: And Marla Lee is already heading for the top of the cage. Lana better keep her head on a swivel here or this could be over before it’s barely started.

As Marla began to climb, Lana let go of the choke with the kendo stick and immediately made a beeline for her. Lee spotted her coming and dropped back to the mat before Lana struck it across her back just the same. Lee spun around in pain before Lana went for a head shot with the stick. But the Liar of Liars caught it under her arm and jerked her forward into a clothesline. Lee picked up the fallen stick and tossed it aside before retrieving a leather strap hanging on the wall. She snapped the leather against itself with a bit of a smirk on her face before she lashed it across Lana’s back violently. The stinging of the leather against her back was clearly audible as Star’s body froze in pain before Marla lashed it again with a vengeance. Lana dropped to the mat as Marla began to tie the belt around her neck and shove the buckle through to lock it.

Casey: Marla’s used the belt to good effect there and she’s going to be able to pretty much control Star here - unless Lana comes up with something to get the actress off of her.

Mark: I don’t have a clue what she is looking to do, but Star has that strap leashed around her neck. And Marla does nothing without reason!

Marla began to drag Lana towards the cage with the belt around her neck like a dog before she began to ascend again and almost to the top before she slid the other end of the strap through the chain link and tied it off. Lana literally hung with her feet dangling and the belt around her neck inside the chair. Lee grinned as she looked at her, only to have her amusement interrupted by the sound of the kendo stick striking her across the back. Lee’s body froze as she fell backwards to the mat. Velvet snapped the kendo stick into two pieces over her knee and began a series of furious strikes all over Marla’s body when she tried to sit up. At least fifteen shots rapid fire hit their targets!

Mark: Marla left Velvet too long, and she’s using that broken kendo stick like a pair of nunchuks. The Liar of Liars is getting beaten like a dog! And Lana Star is being hung from the cage!

Casey: The match hasn’t been going for that long and I’m very happy to be on this side of the desk. These three are just getting warmed up. Put the kids to bed, if you haven’t already.

Lana managed to catch her feet on the top rope, causing her to be able to gain some balance as she unlatched the belt from around her neck and dropped to the mat. Star coughed violently as Velvet glanced over her shoulder at Lana with a nod of her head. The ninja moved to the far side of the cage and reached up, pulling down a lead pipe that had been attached to the wall. Lana began to sit up as Velvet moved towards her, raising the lead pipe over her head before Lana caught her with a low blow that dropped her to her knees. Star quickly grabbed the pipe, fighting to her feet and delivered a swinging shot to the side of Velvet’s head! Raven hit the mat like a sack of bricks as the fans booed around the ring. Star glanced over to see Marla still on the mat and headed towards the wall to begin her climb. Slowly but surely she made it to the top of the cage, and seemed to be looking for an opening in the barbwire.

Casey: If Lana wants to win then she’s going to have to bite the bullet and go through the wire. The longer she takes about the more likely she’s going to be dragged back down into Hell.

Mark: I...I don’t think she’s hesitating….

Star reached up and wrapped her hand around the wire, blood seeming from her grip and dripping to the canvas beneath her as she beamed with glee. She reached up with the other hand and grabbed another section of it and dropped down to the mat, pulling the razor sharp wire down with her to hang into the cage as well. She looked at her cut hands with a smile on her face.

Mark: Look at her hands, they are lacerated and she looks like she is having the time of her life! The wire is hanging down on that side of the cage, you know she pulled it down for a reason!

Casey: I’ve seen that look on other people’s faces before and it’s rarely ever good news. Someone’s going to get hur...more hur...very very very badly hurt with that wire.

Lana moved towards Marla, wrapping her bloody hands around her face to pull her to her feet. She grabbed her by the back of the head and took off towards the exposed wire. Lee stopped just short of contact, planting her boot against the cage wall to stop herself. Spinning to Lana, she swept her feet out from under her and used her as a human catapult, firing Lana into the cage wall! Marla moved in behind her, grating her face against the steel before jerking her backwards, causing the wire to pull and tug at her clothes and flesh before she hit the mat. Star was bleeding profusely!

Casey: That backfired hugely. I hope theres a couple of pints of blood with Stars name on it somewhere.

Mark: Star’s body and clothes are lacerated! She is bleeding like a stuck pig! This match should be sponsored by the Red Cross.

Marla glanced around, retrieving a baseball bat from the wall and laying it against the cage. She reached into one of her boots and removed a pair of gloves from each side and began to slide them onto her hands, thick leather gloves at that. And with a smirk, she picked up some of the loose barbwire and began to wrap it around the baseball bat. She then dragged Lana’s body close to her as Marla raised the bat over her head like a guillotine. And as she was about to strike, Raven caught her with a brogue kick to the chest! Marla fell backwards into the cage wall behind her, causing the wire to attach itself to her back. She shrieked in pain as Velvet pushed her head between her legs and hoisted her up with a devastating powerbomb, jerking more of the wire down with her that was still attached to her.

Mark: Marla’s back...has to be shredded! The barb wire is ripping flesh left and right, and Lee still has some of it caught on her clothes!

Casey: Holy…..this is definitely turning into the blood bath we all expected here. Velvet’s got an excellent chance to escape and end the match though.

Velvet looked up to the top of the cage where the wire had been pulled down to the mat. She saw a gap at the top of it, nodding her head before she began to climb up, careful to avoid the wire as she stepped over it.

Mark: The wire on that side has been pulled down to the mat, and Velvet Raven….she’s got a clear path over the top of this cage!

Casey: Between them Lana and Marla have given her a safe path up and over the top

The ninja began to ascend towards the top when a steel chair crashed across her back, causing her to fall to the mat. Standing tall with it was the lacerated and bloodied Lana Star. She raised the chair back up and crashed it across Velvet’s back with a sickening smack before tossing the chair down and heading for the cage wall. She climbed up a good five or six feet before Marla had managed to get up. She set the chair up and got underneath Lana, grabbing her legs. Star looked down, trying to kick free of her grasp.

Mark: Star’s trying to get the hell out of here, and I don’t blame her! But wait a...don’t do it!

And with one fluid jerk, Marla jerked Lana off the cage and powerbombed her through the chair! The fans began a “HOLY SHIT” chant as the chair lay warped on the mat, while Lana couldn’t even lay still, her body writhing on the canvas.

Casey: MY GOD!! Her back’s got to broken. Look at what she did to that chair!! I don’t know about shortening careers this might have ended it before it began!!

Marla glanced back up to the top of the cage, beginning to make her ascent yet again. Meanwhile on the canvas, Velvet had begun to sir. She crawled away from Marla towards another cage wall to pull herself to her feet. Blood dripped down from cuts on Marla’s back caused earlier by the barbwire as Velvet pulled a steel chain off the wall. Lee continued towards the top when Velvet staggered back towards her, grabbing her foot. Marla glanced down to her, shaking her leg to try to cause her to lose her grip but Raven wrapped the chain around that foot instead. Marla caught her with a kick to the face that sent her backwards before she began to climb again. Velvet got back to her feet and moved away from Lee. She grabbed the other end of the chain and yanked it with all her might! Marla’s head smacked the top of the cell as she was jerked down into a faceplant on the canvas!

Casey: Straight into the steel and all the way down to the floor. That’s going to smart. Hope Marla stocked up on the aspirin.

Mark: From the cage to the canvas! Lee could be out cold, and think about it! These women are destroying to make it to the damn Thunderdome in the finale!

Raven stood tall, laboring as she began to wrap the chain around Marla’s feet. Tying it around and around and around several times, she moved towards the cage and began to wrap the other end around the top rope until there wasn’t any slack left and Lee’s feet hung upside down with her body still on the mat.

Mark: Velvet Raven is using that chain like a rope, and she’s tied Marla upside down with it! I don’t think Lee even knows where she is right now, much less what Raven’s done to her.

Casey: It’s pretty safe to see Lee’s not going anywhere while she’s all tied up like that. It’s a two horse race. Lana and Velvet.

Velvet glanced over to the opening again as Lana staggered to her feet behind her, blood dripping under her like a faucet. Velvet moved towards that wall as Lana moved in behind her in a bloody mess. Star scooped up the warped chair from earlier, trying to fold it back shut. As she closed the gap behind her, she went for a shot to the back of her head. Velvet ducked down and the chair hit the top rope instead. Lana spun around, only to catch a spinebuster into the barbwire from Raven! Star’s body writhed and spasmed in pain as Velvet dropped to her knees on the canvas, obviously the worse for wear herself.

Casey: Velvet’s gotta have eyes in the back of her head!! Lana missed and in this sort of environment you make a mistake and you pay BIG!

Mark: You’re damn straight! Look at Marla Lee, I don’t believe it!!

Marla had begun to stir on the canvas, sitting up and trying to get to the chain wrapped around her ankles. Velvet turned back to the cage with the exposed opening at the top and began to climb. Lee saw her and began desperately lunging for the chain! Raven made it to the top where were was no wire as Lee finally grabbed the chain around her feet and began to unravel it.

Mark: Velvet’s up top, and Marla’s desperately trying to get that chain untied! I don’t even know how she’s able to move right now.

Casey: It’s simply unbelievable. The resiliency of these women. And you can tell from the way they are soaking up all this punishment and keep on coming back just want it means to each of them to make it to the Thunderdome!

Velvet straddled the top of the cage as Marla managed to finally free her feet. The Liar of Liars rolled to her feet, jerking the warped chair up and hurling it like a boomerang! Raven glanced back and caught it on top of the head and dropped like a rock off the top of the cage to the floor below. The referee called for the bell as Marla collapsed back to the mat in the ring.

Mark: Raven took a header of the steel when Marla launched that chair for her head! You gotta believe she was hoping she’d fall in the other direction!

Casey: Most definitely - but you’ve got to wonder, if she had how much did Marla have left in the tank to capitalise on it? Academic now as Raven picks up the victory, though she doesn’t look much like a winner.

The cage was immediately begun to be deconstructed as medical personnel rushed the ring, tending to both Marla and Lana inside while others went to assist Velvet Raven. Davis pointed to Velvet and signified her as the winner.

Mark: Velvet Raven has won the most bloody and brutal cage match in recent memory! I’m very glad we had medical assistance waiting, because you knew they were going to need it before this one was through.

Casey: It’s been an absolutely brutal match. An absolute bloodbath by any definition.

The camera watched as the medical team assisted all three women as the camera went back to the hosts.

Mark: Fans, it’s up to you now. There’s no elimination in the votes this week, but who did you think was the best in this carnage? As we stated, none of them look like winners to me, just survivors! Casey, who gets your vote after this?

Casey: Oh boy. It’s a hard task to separate these three women out after what we’ve just witnessed. Velvet showed a lot of smarts to tie up Marla. Lana was like the Rolling Stones - hit after hit after hit and kept on coming back again and again and again. While Marla fought right to the very last moment with every fibre of her body and was incredibly aggressive whenever she had the opportunity.

Mark: We hope to get an update on what happened to Lollipop soon, and these three women have moved onto the final challenge before the Thunderdome! Good night from the most brutal Future Shock I’ve ever seen!

The cameras go back to the three women receiving medical help before the show fades off the air as the FFW logo flashes across the screen.
