Lisa slowly walked towards Hronn; being precise with her movement.  Finally, The Punisher made it up to
The Nordic Nightmare; the competitors locking eyes with each other.

LISA:  Ripping the shirt into submission earlier was a nice trick, but ripping me into submission?  Get real!

Hronn did not respond in any way; the cold-hearted blonde just continued staring at Lisa.  A 'U.S.A.'
chant began to vibrate around the United Center.  The ex-Marine turned her head to the left side of the
arena and smiled at the fans before turning her head to the right and flashing another smile.  Lisa turned
her attention back to Hronn, who showed no signs of being irritated by the chant.

LISA:  You hear that? You're in my country and my warzone!

With that, Lisa laced Hronn's left cheek with a hard slap; the sound of it could be heard from the cheap
seats.  The Nordic juggernaut head turned to her right and stayed like that for a couple of seconds.

DAWN:  Has Lisa lost her mind?
LISA:  How did you like that welcoming to America?

The Nordic Nightmare began to slowly turn her head at Lisa, but was attacked by a barrage of right
hands; each punch causing her budge.  After the sixth punch, Hronn went for a haymaker right hook that
would knocked Lisa's head off, but missed.  The Punisher ducked under and waited for her opponent to
turn around.  Once the wait was over, Lisa exploded on Hronn with a devastating clothesline; the impact
bringing the dangerous blonde down with great force.

JAIME:  If Lisa wants to win this, she has to stay on Hronn; she can't let her get any type of breather.

The Nightmare cleared her head with an irritating look on her face as she made it to her feet.  Hronn
turned around to face Lisa, but was booted in the stomach.  The kick doubled her over long enough; that
Lisa was able to bring her down to mat with a quick swinging neckbreaker.  As Bickels rose up, she
turned her attention towards Heidrun, who was giving her sister some encouragement.  The sexy ex-
Marine pissed off the United States Champion by flipping her off; the disrespectful finger gesture causing
Heidrun to shake the cage out of frustration.

DAWN:  Lisa better keep her eyes on Hronn before she gets killed.
JAIME:  Agreed!

Lisa grabbed a handful of Hronn's hair before bringing her up to her feet. The Punisher brought her
mouth towards the blonde's ear so she could talk some more trash.

LISA:  And they call you the nightmare, if so; then how am I not afraid of you?

Bickels began to run towards the cage wall in front of her, looking to throw Hronn's face into it. At the last
second, the heartless Icelandic beauty put her hands out and grabbed the ropes, bringing a stop to
Lisa's throw.  With a look of shock on her face, Lisa went to bring Hronn's head back so she could smash
her face into the steel, but was backed off by a hard elbow to her stomach.  The Nordic Nightmare slowly
turned around to face Lisa and rocked her jaw with a running forearm smash.

The Punisher held her jaw as she was being brought to her feet by Hronn.  The dangerous nightmare
locked her hands behind Lisa's neck and began to bring her knees up into the Punisher's ribs with knee
strikes, each shot causing her to gasp for air.  After the fifth knee strike, Hronn wrapped her right arm
across Lisa's chest and with one quick motion, swept her leg to slam her into the mat with an impactful
STO.  The proud American arched her back up in pain while she was on the mat.

JAIME:  I know it's early, but Hronn seems like the wrestler that once she's on offense; the match is
basically over.
DAWN:  So Lisa has already lost this match; right?
JAIME:  We'll see if she can make a comeback.

Hronn brought Lisa to her feet and whipped her into the corner; the ex-Marine's back bouncing off the
turnbuckle with authority.  Lisa held her back as she staggered out of the corner, towards her opponent.  
The Nordic Nightmare wrapped her hand around her opponent's throat, ready to deliver
THE ICE
STORM
[consecutive chokeslams].  But before she could lift Lisa into the air, the American beauty
slammed a karate chop to the side of the blonde's neck, stunning her for moment.  The moment allowed
Lisa to wrap her arms around her opponent's waist, lift her into air, and slam her into the mat with a bone-
shivering belly-to-belly suplex.  As Lisa stood on her knees, she placed her hands on her hips and took a
deep breath before standing up.

JAIME:  Even though Lisa was able to stop Hronn's offense, did it really do any damage to Hronn?  
Because Hronn has not shown any sign of pain; it looks like she ignores the pain.
DAWN:  Hronn is unbeatable Jaime; she shows no sign of mercy or pain, she is just cold to the core.

Lisa hauled Hronn up by her wrist and went to whip her into the far corner.  Hronn reversed the whip,
causing Lisa to go into the corner.  With evil in her eyes, the Nordic Nightmare charged into the
Punisher's direction, but charged into her elbow; the blow causing Hronn to hold her jaw.  The Punisher
wrapped her arms around the merciless heel, lifted her up in the air, and delivered a sickening inverted
atomic drop that sent a shock through Hronn's crotch before she fell to one knee.  Lisa quickly grabbed
the ropes behind her and climbed up on the second rope. Another 'U.S.A.' chant began to go around the
arena before the proud American leapt off for a double axe handle.  At the last second, Hronn caught
Lisa by the throat.

JAIME:  Oh no!

Hronn gripped Lisa's throat tightly before lifting her up in the air for
THE ICE STORM [consecutive
chokeslams].  But as Lisa found herself up the air, she broke free and landed on her feet behind Hronn.  
Before the blonde nightmare could turn around, the Punisher wrapped her arm around her opponent's
neck with an inverted facelock and drove the back of her foe’s head into the canvas with
THE BUNKER
BUSTER
[Scorpion Deathdrop].  The crowd stood on their feet with excitement as they felt the match was
over for Hronn.  Bickels sat up and began to laugh before standing up and turning to the crowd for
approval.  She soon went over to the side where Heidrun was and taunted her.

LISA:  This was supposed to be a challenge, Heidrun?  That was nothing but a warm-up.  Why won't you
get in this ring, so we can have our match?

JAIME:  Go for the pin Lisa, turn around and go for the pin!
DAWN:  I'm all in for taunting, but this is stupid.

Heidrun’s eyes sparkled with anger as she listened to Lisa's taunting.  When the champ turned her eyes
to look at Hronn, her expression changed to an arrogant smirk.

LISA:  You find something funny?  I'll show you something funny!

Lisa ignored the crowd's warnings, but turned around towards The Nordic Nightmare; ready to send
Heidrun a message.  When the ex-Marine turned around, she was shocked to see Hronn on her feet like
nothing ever happened to her.  The Nordic Nightmare eyes turned deep cold and waved her finger in a
'no' motion.  The gesture angered Bickels and against better judgment, she charged towards her foe.  
With alarming speed, Hronn extended her elbow up into Lisa's throat; the blow stopped the ex-Marine in
her tracks as she held her throat with her hands.  The Icelandic beauty slowly brought her elbow down
and carefully walked towards her opponent, who was coughing violently.  The Punisher saw her foe
coming closer and went to strike but telegraphed the blow.  Hronn quickly blocked it with her left forearm
and forced her right hand into Lisa's rib with a punch.

The proud American quickly fell to her knees as she held her left ribcage.  The Nordic punisher slowly
walked around Lisa and finally stopped at her left side; she slowly lifted the blonde's arm up and with a
quick thrust, stroked her ribs with her knee. The battered Punisher howled in agony as she fell on all
fours; her ribs were stinging with pain.  Hronn moved Lisa's arm away from her injured ribs and delivered
a punt kick to them; the kick causing her to roll away from her merciless opponent.

JAIME:  It's like a switch was turned on in Hronn's head and now she is deadlier than she once was.
DAWN:  I've heard that when she goes in this mode, she is very dangerous and basically unbeatable.

Heidrun applauded her sister's work as she watched.  Hronn moved behind Lisa and brought her up by
her hair before she pushed the ex-Marine into the corner and began to unload on the Punisher's
abdomen with body blows.  After the fifth blow, Lisa slowly fell to her knees and tried to suck in some air,
but couldn't; her ribs were in too much pain to get air for them.  Hronn knelt down, locked on a front
facelock and brought her blonde opponent up to her feet and into the corner.  The Nordic Nightmare
bent down, grabbed the ropes, and drove her muscular shoulder into Lisa's bruised core.  

As Lisa slumped in the corner, Hronn brought her shoulder back and went to repeat the attack.  At the
last second, Lisa shocked everyone and brought her knee up into Hronn's jaw, causing her to straighten
up and back up a couple of steps.  Bickels held her ribs and let out an aggressive yell before taking her
dangerous opponent down with a powerful clothesline.  The Punisher stumbled forward before falling on
her knees.

JAIME:  What a clothesline!
DAWN:  Yeah, but I believe that hurt Lisa more than it did Hronn.
JAIME:  You may be right.

While Lisa used the ropes to bring herself up, Hronn sat up with a cold look in her eyes.  Lisa slowly
turned around to face her opponent and got in position for
THE BICKELS BLAST [Spear]. The Punisher
grimaced in pain before she charged toward Hronn, who was beginning to turn around.  The ex-Marine
brought her shoulder down to crush Hronn, but the merciless nightmare moved to the left and brought
her knee up into Lisa's jaw as she did.  The Punisher crashed to the mat in a heap; the bruised blonde's
bottom lip bloodied as she lay on the mat.  

Hronn slowly brought her blonde foe up to her feet; the cold heel easily scooped Lisa onto her shoulder
and backed a couple steps away from the cage wall.  Hronn ran at full speed into the cage with Lisa,
causing the ex-Marine's head to bounce off the metal links of the cage.  The Nordic Nightmare kept the
proud American on her shoulder and repeated the maneuver; after this one, she dropped Lisa onto the
mat.  Bickels was under the bottom rope and next to the cage wall.  A horizontal cut was on top of the
Punisher's forehead as blood began to flow from the cut.

JAIME:  It's sad, but I said there would be blood; Lisa Bickels is busted open, people.
DAWN:  She should have listened to Mavi; because now she needs help.

Hronn slowly reached through the rope, grabbed a double handful of Lisa's hair, and pulled her up to her
feet.  The dangerous blonde turned around and began to grind her foe’s open cut into the steel cage;
the ex-Marine’s screams could be heard around the arena as her forehead was being torn to shreds.  
Hronn finally stop with the grinding, but was not done with the torture.  She turned the ex-Marine toward
the cage and wrapped Lisa's arms around the top rope; the blood began to stream down the ex-Marine's
face as her head hung against her chest.  

The merciless Icelandic destroyer backed a couple of steps away from her opponent with a dangerous
look in her eyes.  She soon ran towards her trapped foe and leapt in the air with her knee up high; the
attack caused Lisa's face to smash into the cage.  Hronn soon freed the Punisher's arms and allowed
her to fall onto her left side.  Heidrun walked over to side of the cage where Lisa lay next to.

HEIDRUN:  Foolish girl!

The Nordic Nightmare reached under the ropes to grab Lisa's hair and pulled her from under the ropes.  
Hronn brought Lisa up to her knees and measured her up before coming down on her open cut with a
right punch.  The deadly sadist slowly brought her right hand back and came down on the Punisher's
forehead again with her fist; the blood from Lisa began to stain Hronn's taped fists.  The Nordic
Nightmare lowered the ex-Marine's head before kneeing her in the head; the blow causing her head to
snap back.  The dangerous grappler lowered her opponent's head again before repeating the same
bone-crushing attack.  Hronn let go of Lisa's hair, which allowed her to fall to the mat face-first; her blood
began to make a puddle under her face.

JAIME:  Hronn has not gone for one pin.
DAWN:  She's just wearing Lisa down.
JAIME:  What match are you watching?  Lisa is already worn down.

Hronn sat on Lisa's back and placed her arms on her thighs.  Instead locking on a camel clutch, the
Icelandic sadist held Lisa by her hair and began to slam elbow after elbow onto The Punisher’s forehead,
opening the cut even more.  After the eighth elbow shot, Hronn relented and pushed Bickels’ face into
the mat before she stood up.  The Nordic Nightmare then bent down and pulled the bloodied ex-Marine
up by the hair.  

When she finally got Lisa up to her feet, Hronn scooped her up horizontally before dropping to one knee,
slamming the Punisher's back onto her other knee. The cold-blooded blonde stood up with Bickels and
repeated the bone-breaking maneuver; the move caused the bloodied ex-Marine to scream out in pain.  
Hronn stood up again and repeated the backbreaker for a third time.  The Icelander stood up for the
third time and began to back up; the living nightmare backed up until her back was touching the ropes.  
The sadistic Icelander leaned backwards as she threw Lisa over her head, over the ropes.  Lisa's back
slammed into the cage wall before she fell onto her side.

JAIME:  Oh My God!!!  Hronn just fall-away slammed Lisa into the cage wall.  Just go for the pin Hronn or
just walked out the door.

Hronn turned around to face Lisa and reached through the ropes to grab her.  The sadistic blonde
turned away from Lisa and reached back to pull her opponent’s head over the ropes. Hronn fell down to
one knee with a rope hung hangman neckbreaker hold.  For the first time in the match, Jenny had the
chance to ask Lisa if she wanted to quit.  With her neck being wrenched back across the top rope, Lisa
slowly said "no".  With that, Hronn relented.  The ex-Marine fell on her knees before she fell onto her
side.  The Nordic Nightmare bent down, grabbed Bickels by the wrist, and pulled her into the middle of
the ring.  The living nightmare soon turned Lisa onto her stomach and sat on her back.  She then
reached under the brutalized blonde's throat and locked on an inverted facelock.  Hronn pulled back with
her submission finisher,
THE NIGHTMARE CHAMBER [Dragon Sleeper, Camel Clutch combo].

JAIME:  THE NIGHTMARE CHAMBER is locked on; this is not even called for.
DAWN:  Why is it not?  Hronn is just trying to win the match.
JAIME:  DAWN!  Hronn is not trying to win; she is simply torturing Lisa here.

A 'LISA' chant began to rise from the crowd as Lisa reached out for the ropes with her arm; her whole
face covered in blood as she reached.

HRONN:  Quit!
LISA:  N-n-no!  I wi-will not qu-quit!

Hronn let go of the hold and walked towards the turnbuckle.  The brutal Icelander took the padding off
the top turnbuckle before she turned and walked back towards the blood-soaked ex-Marine.  Hronn
hauled Lisa onto her knees and moved behind her.  The Nordic Nightmare locked on a double chicken
wing before she lifted the bloodied blonde into the air.  The Icelander ran towards the cage with her
trapped foe, causing Lisa’s face to smash into the cage wall.

Sigurdardottir turned around and ran towards the far cage wall again; the Punisher's face bounced off
the cage with impact.  Still, The Nordic Nightmare held the ex-Marine aloft.  Deliberately, Hronn walked
over to the exposed turnbuckle and dropped Bickels face-first onto it with
THE NORTHERN VIOLATION
[Double Chicken-Wing into a Facebuster].

JAIME:  ALRIGHT! THIS MATCH IS OVER!

Hronn pulled the destroyed ex-Marine to her knees by the hair and held her right hand up high, signaling
for the finish.

HRONN:  Say America is weak or I break you!

A blood drenched Lisa slowly brought her left hand up and stuck her middle finger up at Hronn. The cold
Icelander shook her head and went for
THE ULTIMATE STRIKE [K.O. Punch]. Surprisingly, at the last
second, Lisa was able to bring her right fist up into Hronn's crotch; the surprise attack causing her to turn
away.  The ex-Marine slowly made it upright; her feet and legs shaking.  

The Nordic Nightmare turned around to face Lisa and was hit with a right hand from The Punisher; the
blow caused Hronn to back up.  Bickels showed her heart as she hit the dangerous blonde with another
right hand; the blow having the same effect as the first one.  The Punisher went for another, but Hronn
grabbed her by the throat, lifted her in the air, and slammed her into the mat with a resounding
chokeslam.  Sigurdardottir kept hold of Lisa's throat, pulled her up, and repeated the maneuver; Lisa
being slammed on the mat with
THE ICE STORM [Consecutive Chokeslams].

JAIME:  THE ICE STORM???  COME ON NOW!
DAWN:  Lisa should have listened to Mavi.
JAIME:  This is not about Mavi; this is about Lisa's health.

Hronn pulled Lisa up, turned her around, and pushed her into the ropes.  Lisa's body bounced off the
ropes, which gave Hronn the opportunity to lift her up onto her shoulders.  The Nordic Nightmare turned
her head towards the ex-Marine's head.

HRONN:  Say.. America is weak or I break you!  SAY IT!!
LISA:  Go...to...Hell!
HRONN:  You first!

Hronn wrenched Lisa's back mercilessly with a torture rack, causing her to let out a bloodcurdling
scream.  After a couple of seconds of being racked in torture, Lisa's left ribcage finally met their breaking
point; a loud 'POP' was heard around the arena before Lisa screamed at the top of her lungs and she
began to cough up blood.  The ex-Marine went limp before Hronn drove her head into the mat with
THE
NIGHTMARE'S REVENGE
[Torture Rack into an inverted Death Valley Driver].  Lisa lay on her stomach
motionless as the crowd watched in shock.  Hronn nudged the destroyed grappler onto her back with her
foot and then placed her boot on the bloodied chest of Lisa for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!

DING!  DING!  DING!

NINEL CONDE:  The winner of this match, "The Nordic Nightmare" Hronn Sigurdardottir!

Hronn stared down at her broken foe with a small smirk before she walked out the cage door. Her sister
waited for her with open arms and hugged her when the older Sigurdardottir came down the steps. The
sisters started to walk up the ramp, but stopped in their tracks as a figure came on stage; the figure was
Mavi Gioia.
JAIME:  It's time for one of our main events for tonight; it's Hronn Sigurdardottir versus Lisa Bickels in a
steel cage!
DAWN:  Don't forget that this the first ever Steel Cage Match in AFW history.  For all you idiots out there,
you can win a Steel Cage Match by pin-fall, submission, or escaping the cage.  And remember Jaime, if
Lisa finds a way to win, Mavi will reward her in a big way.  But if she would to lose, I think Mavi will reward
her with pain.
JAIME:  We'll find out out the match will turn out soon, but let’s go backstage to Shannon Elizabeth, who
is with the Sigurdardottir sisters.
EPISODE 5
LOCATION: UNITED CENTER [CHICAGO, ILLINOIS]
written by:
LISA BICKELS
HRONN SIGURDARDOTTIR
Hronn began taping her fist while she sat in a chair.

SHANNON:  I am here with the Sigurdardottir sisters, Heidrun and Hronn.  Hronn, you will be going
against a former champion in a Steel Cage Match.  Do you have any thoughts on the brutal match?

Hronn did not respond; she continued to tape her fist as Shannon waited for a response.

SHANNON:  Hronn?

Suddenly, Heidrun came towards Shannon with her newly won U.S. Championship over her shoulder.

HEIDRUN:  My sister no talk; only action, so I talk.
SHANNON:  OK. Heidrun, you and your sisters have been on a roll since coming here to AFW.
HEIDRUN:  Yes we are.  Roll good word for us.  Because us, The Lethal Weapons rolled out the ring but
Pia hurt her and I break her after.  Tonight, bring stretcher for poor Lisa; she soon rolled on one.

The Nordic Knockout patted her belt before continuing.

HEIDRUN:  When Lisa was Marine, she serve America with her skills.

A sound of Hronn's tape being ripped cuts her sister off, causing Heidrun to look down at her sister with
smile before turning to the camera.

HEIDRUN:  Lisa! Tonight, you serve America with your blood!

The Nordic Nightmare stood up, nodded to her sister, and walked off the camera; heading towards the
ring for her match.  Heidrun smirked towards Shannon before following her sister to the ring.

NINEL CONDE:  This next match is a Steel Cage Match!  The only ways to win are by either pinfall,
submission, or by escaping the cage and having both feet touch the floor.  Introducing first, accompanied
to the ring by Heidrun Sigurdardottir, hailing from Reykjavik, Iceland, and weighing one hundred thirty
three pounds; she is The Nordic Nightmare, Hronn Sigurdardottir!

The silent blonde came on stage to some effective jeers from the AFW fans, but their jeers did not affect
her at all.  The blonde juggernaut's younger sister, Heidrun emerged from backstage. The U.S.
Champion patted her sister's muscular shoulder with a look of confidence before following her down the
ramp.  The lethal Icelander came down the ramp wearing a black sports bra, matching gym shorts, black
ankle length wrestling boots, and tape wrapped around her fists.  

As the Nordic Nightmare circled the steel structure, she made it to the center of the cage, she stared a
hole through it before stepping up the steps and going into the ring.  Hronn stood in the middle of the
ring, facing the entrance ramp and waited for opponent while Heidrun placed her arm on her sister's
shoulder.

The opening of Limp Bizkit's Rollin came from the arena speakers, causing the fans to come to their feet.
 Lisa came through the curtain, which made the crowd become even more unglued to their seats.

NINEL CONDE:  And her opponent, from San Diego, California, and weighing one hundred thirty
pounds; she is The Punisher, Lisa Bickels!

The ex-Marine took the crowd's approval in and pointed at the fans in the upper deck before walking
down the ramp. Lisa came for war wearing a camouflage bandana, matching halter top, camo briefs, and
black wrestling boots.  She looked through the cage as she came down the ramp and saw the sisters
staring at her; Hronn with a cold stare and Heidrun with an arrogant smirk.  The Punisher shook her head
arrogantly before going up the steps and then into the ring.  

When Lisa got into the ring, she took of her bandana and threw it in the air, behind her, and over the
cage as the referee motioned for Heidrun to leave the ring.  The Nordic Knockout actually listened and
walked towards the door while staring at Lisa with the same arrogant smirk she had before.  The
Punisher watched as Heidrun left and shook her head with a smug look on her face before she turned
towards her cold-hearted opponent.
JAIME:  Uh-oh! The Nordic sisters could be in trouble.

Mavi had an ice cold look in her eyes as she came down the ramp.  Heidrun and Hronn got in position to
fight, but was surprised when Mavi walked passed them like they were not even there.

JAIME:  What the hell?

The Black Widow walked up the steps and into the cage.  Mavi stared down at Lisa while she walked
towards her; the ex-Marine starting to stir again.  The blood soaked Punisher brought her head up and
saw Mavi.

LISA:  Ma-vi. (extending her hand) He-help me; pu-pu-please.

Mavi just continued to stare down at the broken blonde.  Lisa struggled to push herself off the mat and
onto her knees.

LISA:  Ple-please; help me u-up.

Mavi slowly crouched down in front of Lisa's face with that same ice cold stare and stroked the
ex-Marine's hair.  Lisa tried to speak, but Mavi placed her finger on her lips.

MAVI:  I'm sorry, but you brought this on yourself.

The Black Widow stood up and turned towards the cage door, leaving Lisa on her knees broken hearted
and wracked with pain.  The Goddess of Destruction soon turned around, rushed forward and almost
knocked Lisa's head off with
THE CEMENT BOOT [Running Boot to Face]; the blow caused Bickels to
crumble on the mat and the crowd to boo the hell out of Mavi.

JAIME:  AH! COME ON! SHE'S BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH!
DAWN:  Mavi did what she had to do; Lisa did not listen too her, so she had to be broken by her.

Mavi stared down at Lisa's broken body with utter disgust before she walked out the cage door. The
hazel eyed villain ignored the crowd's jeers as she walked up the ramp.

JAIME:  Can we please get some help for Lisa!
DAWN:  Alright; calm down, help should be on the way.
JAIME:  This is just sad!

The cage began to rise as medics began to run down the ramp and into the ring for Lisa.

JAIME:  Thank God! I hope Lisa is OK; we'll be right back people.
