SIBIL WARS

by BL

"What have I gotten myself into?"

The thought echoed into Brandi Lynn's head over and over as she got ready. Still on the comfortable side of thirty, Brandi Lynn had thought that her days in the ring were over. She had gotten married almost a year ago and thought she had left this world behind. The violence, the pain, the betrayal of professional wrestling had always been the bane of her existence.

But she was back.

It must've been what her new husband called 'the dark side' of her that missed the challenge of the ring. Now, as another new promotion called, she just couldn't refuse. Robert Jones of the USWW, United States Women's Wrestling, asked if she would be interested in joining if given a title match and she said "Hell yes, I would!!" With that, she left her ranch outside of Whiskey Flats Texas to follow her old faded dream.

Of being a wrestling legend.

So, here she was. Ol' Bobby forgot to mention that the title was tag team and her partner was somebody she never met before. The deal was turning sour before her very eyes. She went to the mirror and looked at the young lady in front of her. Dressed in her ring gear, black boots, cutoff jeans, and a black two piece top, Brandi sighed.

"What in the Hell is wrong with me? I…"

(knock knock)

Brandi turned to the door and said, "Come in." The door opened and three blonde women walked in. Two blondes had long hair and were adorned in matching white robes opened in the front. One of the girls had a red bikini with matching boots. Taller than everyone in the room, she had her hair down. The other girl was a little shorter than the first girl. She was wearing a white bikini with white boots. This girl had put her hair in a ponytail and had this sincere girl next door look about her. The last one blonde that was without a robe was wearing a Dallas Cowboy's jersey with the number 12 on it over what look to be a blue swimsuit. Her hair was cut a lot shorter than the others. She had the appearance of childlike innocence even though she probably was in her early twenties. With her hand out, the third one graced Brandi with a large smile.

"I guess you're my partner, right?" Brandi said to the one in the jersey.

"You got it, partner!!" The 'Cowgirl' said with a grin and her hand out. "My name is Stacy Williams and it's a pleasure to be teaming with you tonight."

Brandi shook the hand firmly as she thought, 'Definitely an enthusiastic gal at least.' With a careful neutral quality to her voice, Brandi said, "Nice to meet you, who are the other two that ya brought along."

"They're our opponents, Holly Dawson and Tracy Williams." If possible Stacy's smile seemed to grow as Brandi automatically shook the hands of the other two girls as the offered them. She looked over the two girls a little closer. Both a little taller than her 5'6, but not substantially. Holly was a little broader then the others, but again, not by a whole lot. Tracy, the one in the ponytail, seemed a little thinner than herself. 'Maybe I might have a strength advantage on her at least, 'Brandi thought. At 5'1 or so, Stacy seemed to be the runt in this room. Then something clicked.

"Kind of a coincidence, you two fightin' tonight both bein' named Williams and all."

Tracy and Stacy both smiled. Then Tracy answered. "Not really, Stacy is my younger sister."

Brandi's jaw dropped.

"You mean you're fixin' to fight your sister?!"

They both let out a surprising girlish giggle. Then Stacy explained. "It's a big opportunity for one of us. We've fought each other before and we will again. We both love wrestling and each other. What happens in the ring stays there."

Brandi shook her head and tried to regain her usual poker face expression. Holly, who had remained quiet to this point enjoying the exchange and look of surprise on the newcomer's face held out her hand and said, "We still have some more things to do before…we meet…so, we'd better leave you two alone. Remember, Brandi, whatever happens tonight, it isn't personal."

Brandi shook her hand and held it a minute and moved to look Holly in the eyes. "It's always personal."

Holly grinned, then she and Tracy left after each hugging Stacy good bye. After the door closed Brandi turned away and sat down on a bench. Stacy walked silently behind her.

"Something wrong, Brandi?"

"You better Damn well believe there is!! I ain't stupid, this is some sort of damn set up!! You three are closer than ticks on a hound dog and you expect me to believe that it ain't gonna turn bad for me real soon? Geez, how dumb do I look?"

Stacy bit her lip for a moment. Then she spoke.

"Brandi, I can't convince you that I'm on the level anymore than just giving you my word that I intend to do all I can for us to win the tag belts. I understand your concern. But, the reward is going to be worth the risk if you just trust me."

Brandi stared at the young girl in front of her for many moments. Then she shook her head. 'Damn, I must be getting soft,' she thought Then she stood up and held out her hand. Stacy smiled and took it. But, Brandi held on to it a little longer than usual.

"I'll take you at your word," Brandi said, "on two conditions. Number one, I'll feed your heart to the hawks if you betray me in any way. Cross me in the slightest and it's your ass. Do we have an understanding?"

Stacy gulped, then nodded. Brandi continued.

"Number two, you will have to be willing to do anything to beat your sister and her partner. By anything, I mean ANY-DAMN-THING!"

Again, Stacy nodded. Brandi shook her hand and then let go and turned around to find her windbreaker.

"One thing, Brandi." Stacy quietly said. Brandi turned to her. "An advantage of my closeness with our opponents is I know their history, weaknesses, and where they are vulnerable."

Brandi stared at the young girl that suddenly had her undivided attention.

"I'm listening."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brandi waited on the ramp as the crew was starting her entrance theme. Yep, this is why she was back. The anticipation, the noise always hyped her up. Brandi always felt like a gunslinger going on a walkdown. She had some of the same feelings as she imagined those Old West gunfighters did. Is this going to be the last fight. Would she come home the same as when she left. The uncertainty of it all held its allure of challenge, risk, and reward. Even her music, 'Bad Company', always lent herself to that mood. As the rattlesnake noise faded down and the music started, she slowly walked out in front of the fans that gave her an explosive reception.

"I guess they ain't forgot me after all," Brandi spoke to herself.

As she made it to the ring and raised her hand up to the fans, her partner, who the announcer called 'Stunning Stacy', came out to some type of Britney Spears-like crap. Brandi looked away in near disgust as her partner jumped over the top rope and kissed her hands to the fans.

Brandi really rolled her eyes as the tag team 'The Voluptuous Vixens' came out to the same type of teen-age garbage that Stacy had. They ran down the ramp and to the ring. Brandi subconsciously noticed that they seemed to be running with a purpose. Still she was almost alarmed when Holly hit a Stacy with a clothesline from behind that toppled her out of the ring. Brandi ducked Tracy's clothesline and kicked her in the belly when she turned back around then landed a right to Tracy's jaw. At that moment though, Holly dropkicked Brandi out of the ring.

Brandi held her hurting posterior and checked on Stacy who too was getting up and making her way towards Brandi. The Vixens moved back to their corner with their hands raised and the fans cheering in appreciation of their aggression. Brandi grabbed Stacy's shoulder and yelled over the crowd.

"Listen, they're sendin' us a message!!! This ain't gonna be pretty!!"

Stacy nodded her understanding as she climbed on the apron of the ring and Brandi rolled under the bottom rope. As she stood up, Holly was waiting on her with an evil grin on her face. The two locked up and Holly came out with a headlock. After grinding it for a couple of moments, she through Brandi over her hip and to the mat. Brandi countered by pushing her head into a scissors and pouring on the pressure. Holly kicked her legs up like a bass wriggling on the shore enough to escape the scissors hold and leaped to her feet. Holly charged Brandi who bent down and grabbed Holly by the waist and then dropped backwards clotheslining her on the top rope. Brandi's signature 'Hot Shot.'

As Holly was wheezing trying to regain her breath, Brandi grabbed her by the hair and marched her toward Stacy's corner. 'Might as well give the kid an advantage here,' Brandi thought. She tagged in Stacy and the both of them together slammed Holly's head into the turnbuckle three times before Brandi finally left the ring area.

Stacy grabbed the dizzy Holly by the hair and whipped her into a neutral corner. As Holly's back hit the turnbuckles, Stacy ran to the side ropes, jumped on the bottom rope using it as a springboard, caught Holly's head and bulldogged her into the mat. A quick pin only netted two. Stacy continued the offense by raising Holly and delivering knife-edge chops to her breasts. Then backing Holly into the ropes she whipped the tired girl to the opposite ropes only to have it reversed. As Stacy hit the side ropes, Tracy delivered a knee to Stacy's kidney crumpling her younger sister. Tracy shrugged off Brandi's glare and yelled to be tagged in.

Holly tagged her in and the two Vixens reigned heavy stomps to the younger Williams back before the ref sent Holly back to her corner. Tracy continued her attack by dragging her sister by the hair and pushing her back into the Vixen's corner. Then Tracy softened her belly by ripping fist after fist into her midsection. As the ref, backed her up, Holly assaulted Stacy with a chokehold. Brandi almost rushed in but was stopped by the ref as now both Vixens renewed their attack on Stacy. Holly kept her choke on and Tracy began throwing knees and punches into her younger sister's belly.

As the ref finally got involved in separating Stacy from the clutches of the Vixens, Brandi began to realize two things. First, that this match was basically anything goes. Second, the Vixens knew and were going to use every trick in the book. Tracy grabbed her younger sister by the hair and slammed her face first into her corner. Then tagged Holly in. The two Vixens grabbed Stacy by the hair and put an arm each around her head and hit the double suplex on the poor girl. Holly pinned Stacy, but the girl gamely kicked out at two.

Holly looked in disgust at the crumpled girl at her feet. Holly then rolled the girl on her stomach and grabbed her arms. Placing her right foot in the small of her back, she began to pull in a perfect standing surfboard. As Holly wrenched the hold, Stacy began to scream.

"Come on, Stace…give it up!!! You're not good enough to take our belts!!" Holly taunted.

Bravely, the younger Williams hung on for almost a minute as the frustrated Holly simply let her fall face first. She looked at the pitiful blonde mop at her feet and said, "You should've given up, Kid, now it's really gonna hurt!!" Holly then picked up Stacy by the hair and placed her in a standing position beside her. Ducking at her left hip, Holly lifted her up into a standing backbreaker. Holly had placed a hand on her thigh and neck and was bouncing up and down. Stacy's muffled screams were drowned out by the crowd's enthusiastic noise. But, she wouldn't surrender as Holly put more into the hold. Again, Stacy refused to submit as tears streamed down what was visible of her face. Brandi, unable to allow it to continue anymore, broke the hold with a quick kick to Holly's back. As the taller blonde fell, Stacy was released and fell hard to the mat. Brandi continued on Holly with fists to the girl's forehead as the referee tried to stop her. Finally, he intervened and began to usher her back to her corner. As Holly was slowly shaking off the affects of the assault and Brandi wasn't being sent to the corner, the hurt Stacy Williams crawled towards her corner to make the tag. She never made it halfway as Tracy got into the ring, hit the side ropes and legdropped her on the back of the head driving the girl's face into the mat. Tracy exited as the ref looked back and Holly, shakily, resumed the Vixen's attack on Stacy.

She pulled Stacy up and tagged in Tracy. As Tracy climbed to the top rope, Holly put Stacy in an over the knee backbreaker. Once on the top rope, Tracy hit a guillotine leg drop on the stricken girl. Tracy rolled her up for the pin, but Brandi, stopped the count with a boot to Tracy's head and then laid out Holly with a punch. Brandi then grabbed Stacy's arms and dragged her back to her corner. Brandi almost got there when a clothesline from an enraged Tracy leveled Brandi. Tracy began stomping Brandi back underneath the ropes. When she turned around, Stacy lunged and threw an uppercut that struck her older sister between the legs. Tracy's mouth formed a silent 'O' as she slumped to her knees. Brandi after climbing to her feet on the apron, began to cheer on the crawling Stacy towards their corner. As she reached for Brandi, Tracy grabbed Stacy's leg. A tug of war transpired as Stacy, inches away from safety was being pulled back by her older sister. One accidental kick by Stacy to her sister's face and the tag was made!!

Brandi came in and began to deliver kicks to the fallen Tracy. Kicks and stomps to her belly and breasts were softening her up. Brandi then did a 360 and struck Holly in the face. As the referee restrained an enraged Holly, Brandi turned back toward Stacy's sister. Stacy had risen to her feet and kicked Brandi hard in the belly doubling her up. One DDT later and there were two girls on the mat. Tracy struggled to move towards the Vixen corner as Brandi was pulling herself to her feet. She grabbed Tracy's left leg two feet from a tag and began to pull her to the middle of the ring.

As she pondered her options, she remembered Stacy's advice on the girls. "Holly is tough, but can lose her head if provoked," Stacy had said. Brandi smiled. 'We've done that, I reckon,' was her thought. Tracy had an injury to her left knee three weeks ago, according to Stacy. 'So,' Brandi reasoned to herself, 'that might be the place where we should go next.'

She took Tracy's leg and bent it into a stepover toehold where she could look at the hurting blonde's face. She saw the older Williams grit her teeth in pain as Brandi put the pressure to it. "You might as well give it up, or they'll carry you out, Williams!!" Brandi shouted to Tracy.

Deciding to give up the hold for something a little more interesting, Brandi released the hold. She then stomped the knee several times to weaken it up. Looking over at her corner, she saw that Stacy was up, but still not looking very fresh still rubbing her back. So, Brandi looked down towards the pain-racked face of Tracy Williams. "Looks like your sister isn't ready to deal with you, so it looks like I'm gonna have to finish ya off myself." With that, Brandi grabbed for Tracy's other leg and expertly placed both legs into a figure 4. Then, turning Tracy on her belly, Brandi leaned back.

A textbook Texas Cloverleaf.

The screams from Tracy could be heard from all areas of the arena. She yelled, but she didn't submit. 'Damn, she's a tough bitch,' Brandi thought. 'Most gals would've tapped out long ago.' Brandi looked over at Stacy who was smiling. Then the smile faded and she bent down to come into the ring. About that time, a sledgehammer hit Brandi in the back of the head. Actually, it was a clothesline, but it felt the same as a hammer. Holly nailed Brandi and then ducked a weak punch from Stacy and grabbed her by the waist. Holly lifted her up in a bear hug for a moment, then dropped her on her knee for an atomic drop. She then turned to Brandi as the ref tried to get her out of the ring and speared her. Both Holly and Brandi tumbled through the ropes. The ref went after them to break them up as Brandi and Holly began to slug it out on the floor.

Stacy and Tracy both stumbled to their feet, Tracy limping badly. As Stacy lunged Tracy caught her with a knee to the belly doubling her younger sister up. The problem was Tracy couldn't put any weight on her left leg and she went down too. From her knees though, she hit Tracy with a punch to the forehead decking her younger sibling. As Tracy struggled to her feet she grabbed her younger sister's legs and spread them. Looking into her sister's horror stricken face, Tracy just snarled, "Okay, you little whore, payback's are a bitch!!" With that she slammed her foot into Stacy's crotch. Tracy released her legs and started to look for Holly to tag out.

Finally, the ref was able to break Brandi and Holly up. Brandi tried to enter the ring, but the referee kept her from entering. He was content with the Williams sisters being the legal girls in the ring. Brandi yelled every cuss word she knew but it didn't do any good as he allowed Tracy to grab Stacy's hair and limp to Vixen corner and slam her punch-drunk sister into the corner. She then tagged a fairly rested Holly and the two went to work with knees in the back of Stacy. Finally, he forced Tracy to leave and Holly drug Stacy away from the corner. Holding Stacy by the hair so that they were eye to eye, she yelled at the hurt girl, "Do you want to see a real suplex, Stacy!!" She then picked Stacy up in suplex position and, after some moments of minor adjusting, suplexed her back first on the top turnbuckle. Stacy rolled off and landed belly first in a heap. Brandi winced at the impact of the move.

Holly took her time and slowly got up. Smiling brightly at Brandi she rolled Stacy over and went for the cover. One…….two……Stacy put her foot on the ropes before three. Holly can't believe it and kneeled beside Stacy and stared down at her in total frustration. After a moment, She reached down and grabbed the girl by the hair and pulled her to her feet. Across the ring, Tracy yelled to Holly, "Put her in the BACKBREAKER, Hol!!" Holly smiled and then lifted Stacy like a baby and held her for a moment. Then, with a war scream, she slammed Stacy onto her outstretched knee. After pressuring Stacy's chin and thigh for a moment, she began to yell at her. "Give it up, Bitch!! I'll put you in the f*cking hospital if you don't give it up now!!!"

Brandi saw enough. Four strides and a front snapkick to the head were all it took for the hold was broken. As Holly rolled around dazed, Brandi noticed the gimpy Tracy trying to enter the ring. Brandi dragged her all the way in, pushing the ref out of the ring, and proceeded to kick and stomp and the injured knee knocking the elder Williams to the mat. As Brandi was torturing Tracy's knee, Holly had got up and was about to attack Brandi when Stacy tackled her by the knees slamming her face first to the mat. Brandi noticed the action and took her attention off Tracy's leg to hit a legdrop on the face down Holly. Brandi then dragged her up and looked outside the ring. 'What the Hell, it worked for them, why not us?' she thought. So, she threw Holly over the top rope and out. She looked over at her partner Stacy, who had placed Tracy's leg on the bottom rope and was beginning to slowly knee drop it and decided that Stacy had it under control.

Brandi rolled under the ropes and was met by a fist in the belly by Holly. As Brandi doubled over, Holly grabbed her head and slammed it to the mat. She then noticed Stacy stretching Holly's leg out and hitting a guillotine leg drop on it. Holly tried to scramble into the ring but was stopped as Brandi grabbed her right leg and pulled. Holly's face hit the mat as she fell down off the apron and she crumpled to a heap at Brandi's feet. Brandi saw Stacy pull Tracy's left leg into a stepover toehold as she pulled Holly up by the hair.

"Your partner's about had it, Holly, of course you ain't gonna see it!!.'" With that, Brandi turned her around until she had Holly in a reverse headlock. Then she dropped down in a reverse DDT on the padding surrounding the ring knocking Holly unconscious. Brandi had just executed her famous 'Boothill DDT'.

Brandi smiled at the unconscious figure at her feet. She then turned her attention to the ring as Stacy released the leglock and motioned to Brandi. As Brandi entered the ring, ignoring the ref's protests, she grabbed one leg and Stacy grabbed the other and on the count of three they pulled Tracy's legs in opposite directions like a wishbone. As Tracy's eyes went wide in pain, the ref after threats of disqualification was finally able to escort Brandi out of the ring. Brandi checked on the sleepy Holly, who still hadn't moved, and finally went with the ref. While the ref's attention was taken, Stacy grabbed both of Tracy's legs again. Smiling she said, "Looks like the boot is on the other p*ssy now, isn't it, Big Sis?" As Tracy begged her not to do it, Stacy stomped her twice in the crotch. Then, Stacy, snarling said, "Time to end this, Bitch!!"

Stacy grabbed Tracy's left leg and spun it around in a toehold. Then, Stacy, picking up her sister's other leg, placed it under the left leg in a figure four position. Then Stacy stayed there, looking at Tracy with a grim look. Then as her sister pleaded with her, Stacy smiled then fell back in a perfectly cinched figure four leglock.

The cries of anguish were incredible.

Tracy's injured knee screamed in pain as her younger sister lifted her butt off the mat to inflict even more pain. Stacy had developed a rhythm of increasing then decreasing the pressure. Tracy had developed a rhythm of screaming and then sobbing depending on what Stacy had done to her legs. Stacy began to taunt her by saying, "Looks like I'm about to be the champ of the family, Trace. You'd better give it up, or the next sound we hear might be your leg snapping!!"

"Please, Stace, let me go !!!" Tracy whimpered, "You're breaking my leg!!"

"Give up, Bitch!!! Give up, or I will break it!!"

Stacy had her face in a determined look that was far different then the smiling face she had and giggling her and her sister had shared before the match, Brandi noted. She looked like she could and would break Tracy's leg if she didn't give her the match. Brandi also noted that Holly had began to stir and was kneeling beside the ring.

Finally, after a cry of complete defeat and anguish, Tracy screamed, "Okay, you win, I give up!!"

As the referee went to ring the bell, Stacy said, "Beg me to release you!!"

Tracy crying, "Please, Sis, let me go!! I can't take anymore!! Please!!!"

The bell rang and Stacy released her hold on Tracy after getting some help from the ref. Holly, who had tried to drag herself in the ring, stopped when Tracy conceded and was laying face down in tears. Brandi who was leading the cheers for Stacy stepped in to help her partner to her feet. "Good job, Kid!! Way to make her squeal!!" Brandi gave her half hug as Stacy kept watching her sister roll around on the mat. Holly had crawled over to Tracy and was checking on her. While Stacy kept her vigil, the referee brought the two belts to the new champions and the crowd began to raise the roof in appreciation. Brandi, while waving at the crowd, noticed that Stacy hadn't quite gotten in the spirit of the celebration out of concern for her sister. She also didn't know if it was appropriate to go to her after possibly maiming her or worse.

Brandi stopped waving as Holly helped the wounded Tracy to her feet and the crowd slowed down their loud cheering to see what was about to transpire now. As Tracy limped to the new champions very slowly and not putting any weight on her left leg, Holly stood behind her. The arena was very still as the two teams stood face to face. Finally, Tracy, with a smile gave her sister a hug. The crowd standing made the largest racket of the entire night. Then Tracy came to Brandi, who offered a handshake. Tracy ignored it and hugged her instead. Brandi, not much for affection, kind of half returned it as Holly was also hugging Stacy. Tracy said to Brandi, "Thanks for taking care of my little sis." Brandi was amazed at this as she watched Tracy limp away and Stacy quickly run to help her ailing sister with the belt around her shoulder.

Brandi noticed that Holly was standing nearby looking at her. Turning to Holly, Brandi offered a handshake to her.

"Nothin' personal, right?"

Holly looked at the hand. Took it and looked at Brandi.

"Damn right it was," Holly said. Holly then smiled and followed the two sisters. Brandi watched the three women exit the ring and walk back up the ramp. Her amaze and wonderment though was reserved for Stacy and Tracy Williams. The two that had entered Hell together as enemies and now were leaving Hell together... again as sisters.
