>>20443757But Cassie isn’t done yet, and stands over Kanako as she lays prone. She grabs both her arms from behind, and pulls her up so her face is roughly two feet away from the mat, before stomping down on the back of her head, landing a brutal Kade Krusher.
“Oh no! Kanako, you poor girl!” Lexi exclaims, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Cassie, Cassie, can I do the thing? Please? Please, please, please the fans will LOVE it. They’ll take so many photos, record videos… I’ll be trending, I just know it. And Kanako will be in a world of hurt! It’s win, win, love.”
Cassie grins and answers Lexi’s request without a word by dragging Kanako’s limp body up, and propping her against the ring ropes. Lexi squeals with glee, before suddenly bursting into an explosive sprint toward the ropes on the opposite side of the ring, which she launches off of at full speed, bounding directly toward Kanako. As she draws closer she leaps, and the crowd gasps as Lexi’s shoulder strikes Kanako’s midsection, sending her flying back through the ropes with a BRUTAL spear.
There is a metallic clanging as both women hit the cage, causing the panel to promptly collapse, and the crowd goes wild as Lexi and Kanako tumble to the outside. Cassie watches as Kanako lies unmoving, having endured the worst of the impact, while Lexi springs to her feet, laughing maniacally. “FUCKING HELL, MATE! WHAT A RUSH!” she exclaims, before grabbing a shoulder gingerly. “Ouchie… worth it though!” As she notices fans starting to take photos, Lexi strikes a seductive pose.
“Get me a mic,” Cassie orders.
For the briefest of milliseconds, Lexi narrows her eyes at her cousin. She wasn’t used to being ordered around like this, especially not in what should be HER moment. But if she learned anything from her first encounter with Cassie in Japan, it’s that her cousin is not a woman to be crossed. Besides, earning her trust by following orders would have its benefits. She just had to play the long game.
