Writing: Vassago & Archer Results: Lookout

BEFORE: All is not exactly well among the prettiest stable around the block as Willa Holland's disastrous few last weeks capped off by defeats to Emily Bett Rickards and Michelle Keegan has caused fresh tension among the junior members of the team fuelled by Sacha Pieterse's mocking "that Willa's kinda jobberish looking right now and should perhaps serve as my personal training partner for a while instead of competing at the coveted PPV events!" Then Willa accepted offer from The Wiz take extra training at his Front Street Gym. She soon found herself under the intense eye of veteran Neve Campbell.

However whenever Willa drops by the PLP gym she can count on a stream of remarks from Sasha Pieterse.

“I thought we’d seen the last of you,” is a typical Sasha remark.

“I took the offer so I could learn something without your flapping your gums at me,” Willa retorts.

“I don’t see how you expect to get anywhere if you can’t deal with my constructive criticism,” Sasha retorts.

“Please, you could care less about me getting anywhere,” Willa responded/

“I wouldn’t you getting out of here for good,” Sasha snipes.

Losing patience with the Sasha, Troian had been the first to suggest Willa just “be a pro and ignore Sasha and her big mouth, she may talk big, but she’s still just a kid—she’s not even nineteen yet. Don’t let her get to you. Stick to your training.”

“Yeah, yeah,” is Willa’s reluctant reaction, but then, the unexpected appearance of the PLP’s chief financial backer causes the conflict to take an unexpected U-turn…

KATE WINSLET'S OFFICE: (Yes, Kate Winslet herself has journeyed across the ocean from Foxfire Atlantic’s Black Swan Hall In Wales and is now occupying her newly set-up office in the PLP gym,) Fellow PLP executives Danielle Harris and Autumn Reeser can't quite believe Kate approved the internal bout without a single blink of an eye and try to filibuster the idea now that Troian Bellisario had to step back and let the front office handle the uneasy situation:

"What are you doing Kate? We have enough trouble with Adelaide Kane struggling and now you want Sasha and Willa batter each other to shreds? Where is the logic?"

"Adelaide will be just fine! Just look at Lucy Hale's rise from the ashes! We can turn her results around but what we don't need is Willa losing her focus. You know we gave her a helping hand after the Lookout reshuffle? You remember that Autumn, do you?"

"Yeah, but..."

"There are no buts here! Willa's under obvious pressure to perform. She's not like Sasha or Adelaide whom we picked into our junior team all by ourselves. Willa's burned herself before and took a whole year out which is the last thing such a delicious and talented girl should do at her age. And she fears that if she lets the Punchers down, she will be fired and won't find another job anywhere around..."

"But we won't dump her just because she lost a couple of fights.."

"No but Sasha's running her mouth a bit too much. And Willa feels the pressure. She'd rather believe fellow stablemates than the front office! That's pretty crazy logic but these girls are still freshmen in SSB terms! They don't use their brains as efficiently as we do..."

"You're losing it, Kate!"

"Be quiet there Danielle! I know what I'm doing! Sasha will get her chance to prove she's the better girl right now BUT we always have Lucy as a perfect example how you can turn things around. And we are doing a mighty fine job with our juniors so they know it's the best place for them to evaluate into serious contenders."

"Ashley supports Sasha and seems to be taking the Lucy and Shay hype uneasy too! She's helping Sasha with the fight tactics but Autumn and I made Troian work with Willa so everything is fair around here!"

"And that's the best thing you've ordered all month, Dani! Now let's see the girls in action,” Kate says briskly.

As they get up to leave Autumn whispers to Dani: “Does this mean she’s going to be coming over here regularly.”

“You got me,” Dani says uneasily, “I was a lot happier when she just using video conferencing to talk to us.”

Kate may have heard this and just smiles mysteriously to herself.

RINGSIDE: Sasha taunts the visibly nervous brunette: "Last chance, you pretty little jobber! You can always quit and we can go out for a dinner together...",

"NEVAAAAHHH! You're just a teenager who needs to keep her pretty little mouth shut! Danielle will soooo cut your wages...."

Sasha doesn't like being called a teenager and even with her recent two wins over Rose Byrne and Nikki Reed she thinks the senior girls - Troian and Shay Mitchell to be exact - are making fun of her but with Ashley Benson at her side she's convinced that Willa must suffer tonight. Meanwhile Troian shows some brunette support and settles in Holland's corner, she tries to calm the girl down but doesn't seem to succeed much as Sasha keeps giggling and making gestures over in the opposite corner.

Sasha Pieterse wears a black bikini top, white knickers and red gloves. Blonde hair in loose waves. Willa Holland wears a silver bikini top with black stripes, neon green hip-huggers and matching gloves. Light brown hair tied in a fancy bun on top. The fight is scheduled for ten rounds in the flyweight division.

Round 1:
Sasha checks out Willa's agility with aggressive jabbing and spikes her gloves aside and targets the neon top before switching high and menacing around the temples. Willa's too stiff and slow in approach and allows the blonde to work the high tempo drills and seems happy just to block her off before responding with single overhands. Sasha keeps giggling from behind the guard before spiking over the top and connecting with the brunette's ribs and dekes another mediocre response; Holland fails to find her rhythm and wobbles a couple of times with Sasha steadily building her lead with repeated jabs on the body. Troian looks as nervous as her fellow brunette friend and Ashley high-fives Sasha after the bell.

Round 2:
More of the same in the second, Willa's too afraid to engage and allows Sasha to land solid strikes from point blank range. Blonde keeps hassling in close range and whips heavy leather on the mouth and snaps Willa's head back, switches on the ribcage and pummels a cumbersome looking rival back to the turnbuckle where more breadbasket drilling has Holland sagging and trying to clinch. "Not so fast!", Sasha drives her right hand on the navel and whips Willa against the ropes, finds a quick uppercut on the nose and shoves the brunette back to center of the ring; Willa just wobbles around and bounces off the ropes, eats a crunching left hook on the eye and staggers back towards her corner as Sasha shows some PLP integrity and let her survive the round instead of pressing home for the touchdown. "More fun to come", the smile couldn't be any bigger for the blondes as the brunettes struggle to embrace the action thus far.

Round 3:
"What are you doing? You're getting beat up by a TEENAGER!!!", Troian urges Willa to finally attack the dominant blonde and suddenly Pieterse's hair flies back at the start of the third with Holland bouncing into her cheeks and smacking the temples from close range. Sasha got clumsy in approach and paid the price as she's forced to slug it out with the visibly improved brunette and barely comes out on top despite leaving the exchange with a couple of lumps on the left cheek. Willa drove her jabs clean on target but earned a fat lip for her trouble with both girls circling back for a respite, the furious exchange lasted almost a full minute and Holland didn't tail off and actually stalks the blonde's guts thereafter; Sasha doesn't smile anymore but keeps her leather on target and adds more straight jabs to the mouth inside the last twenty seconds to nick the round.

Round 4:
Willa's finally more confident out there and the two lumps she gave the blonde teenager are enough for both Ashley and Troian to get excited as well; suddenly more furious punches mark the in house contest and it's Sasha's head snapping backwards as she wades in close range but gets whooped on the mouth and just sags on her knees with Will breathing serious venom right into her pretty face. Sasha starts to wilt as the brunette matches her intensity and has more precision, a couple of hooks to each temple spin Pieterse to the side and make Ashley groan in the corner; Willa charges in and clips the blonde's jugs to throw her right against the turnbuckle and force Benson off the ropes as the action enters phone booth territory and Holland punishes Pieterse's guts in fine style until the bell to finally secure a round on the cards.

Round 5:
Sasha's really angry about that last round, she wanted to completely dominate her struggling friend and Kate Winslet seems more happy than most of PLP's front office now that Willa's arrived at the races. She indeed picks up more steam and outworks the blonde in close range, leaves Pieterse aching in disgust rather than pain before clubbing straight jabs and tagging the nose. Sasha just retreats now as she tries to find a Plan B and checks with Ashley in the corner but the fellow blonde looks equally perplexed and Willa chases her down with jabbing frenzy and catches on the guts late in the going again; the blonde's ribs really take some fine beating and Willa's making it personal as she shouts at Sasha after the bell: "Those teenagers will never learn! The dinner's on you tonight!"

Round 6:
Sasha finally riffles some leather on the brunette's face but Will's too stubborn to quit now and catches a second wind in her sails, more CW try out bashing that has Troian and Ashley glancing over the fighters' heads at each other like saying, "these guys are for real?", frenemies at best display and Willa sags Sasha with a hook to the guts the blonde just didn't anticipate in a frantic tirade; Holland oozes the breakthrough now as she whacks the blonde on the chin and sends her reeling onto the ropes; Pieterse all over the ring down the stretch in pure avoidance and lack of commitment. But Willa doesn't gas out and still reaches out after the teenager's face and clubs an aching Sasha on the temples to spin her with a loud whimpers straight into Ashley Benson's arms. Bell.

Round 7:
We're suddenly dead even on the cards but Willa has the momentum and Sasha looks dismayed as she watches Troian and Willa giggling to each other. That's the first time Holland put a smile on her face and she swings right at the blonde but gets nailed with a dramatic response; the blonde just charges and loses all her focus, tries to drop kick Willa to the canvas and it works briefly as she bats away and gives the brunette a couple of cuts under the left eye. Holland squeals at first but is urged to pay the favor back... and another phone booth exchange ensues with both girls bashing away in frenzy and aching badly down the stretch... WILLA FINDS THE SOLAR PLEXUS and stops the blonde in her tracks; Sasha screams out and sags on her heels as she struggles to find her breath.. "Oh no, you don't!", Benson knows what's coming next and it ain't pretty... HOLLAND NAILS THE ACHING BLONDE ON THE CHIN... and PIETERSE IS DOWN... the proud teenager just crumbles to her back and there's noise everywhere now... Danielle Harris is the most shocked of the observers but Kate Winslet just claps her hands in approval and nods back to her entourage, "Told you Willa's not done here yet!".
Back in the ring Ashley almost loses her vocal cords screaming at the blonde to get up and a visibly aching Sasha eventually does so at eight... she hugs her breasts and has to lean against the ropes as Willa truly rocked her with that shot. The brunette sides with Troian and sports a bigger smile than Pieterse before but shows enough sympathy to the fellow stablemate she refuses to attack anymore in this round and only circles around the misty-eyed blonde who's suddenly gone very silent and unwilling to mock the brunette anymore.

Round 8:
Holland thinks she broke Pieterse with that knockdown but suddenly eats a barrage on the ribcage and has to retreat with a swollen faced blonde still trying to turn the tables on her one more time. Willa's in a much better shape though and the aching lungs pull the plug on Sasha on the minute mark with the pretty actress moaning and yelping all the time now and struggling to keep a resurgent brunette at bay. Willa pummels through on the chest and clips the breadbasket but more import_antly shrugs off the clinching efforts and sags Pieterse with a vicious hook to the jaw. Sasha just reels back to the ropes and although she bounces off them with a flying hook, she's too slow to make it happen and Holland tears into her mouth with a zipping left/right combo that just slumps the head on the blonde's shoulders. Willa pounds away to glory and harpoons the exposed navel now, nails Sasha with five straight and that proves too much for the pretty South African.. DOWN GOES PIETERSE on her knees and Willa's really giving her the hard time now... Pieterse's just unable to fight back the tears of pain as she launches herself upright at seven and can barely see a cheerful brunette tandem. Troian calls for Ashley to throw in the towel but before the senior blonde can do it, Willa just crashes into Sasha's face and pounds her without any reply, the blonde simply tails off into and eats punches all over her pretty face, the arms dropped to the side and unable to raise anymore.. Willa refuses to destroy Sasha's face and the PLP front office has enough brain cells to finally call this one before anyone gets hurt, "Let it go, Willa! She's had enough!", Holland looks around and sees Troian and Ashley now reunited and Kate Winslet making gestures from the stands.. she turns back at Pieterse and the blonde's almost out in her feet but there's still one last punch on the boobs to sink her into a moaning wreck.... IN GOES THE TOWEL FROM BENSON... TKO8 Willa Holland!!!

AFTER: Willa doesn't try to hide the smile but still looks on with professional sympathy as Sasha just slides on her backside and tries to somehow catch her breath! "Hopefully you'll be fine for dinner, Sasha! We wouldn't want to leave without you!", Sasha looks up and tries to withstand the brunette's steely eyes before bursting into a small laughter, "Save this for Selena Gomez! I hear she's coming to town, isn't that right Ash?", "Stupid rumours, I haven't signed anything yet!",

"Girls, girls, girls! That was a great show!", Kate Winslet joins their two junior members in the ring and lifts a banged up Pieterse off the canvas... "Good job Ash, we wouldn't want to see one of our pretty little girls getting mauled too much, right! Yeah, yeah, you will get the extra money for this one... and Sasha dear do you know now you shouldn't call anyone a jobber around here?"

"Grrr... I don't know what are you talking about", Willa bumps her in the chest and whispers something that makes the blonde look at her in disgust

"You wouldn't! No way!", "You gonna bet some cash on this?", "Gotta be kiddin'... and may I get an ice pack, please? Troian, stop fooling around with that phone! Need some assistance here!", Sasha's close to boiling over but she eventually receives the ice pack to heal the banged up cheeks and nose... "I'm only buying you a pizza guys! We are NOT going down to that French restaurant where the meal is worth half my weekly wage! You hear me? It's pizza or fries and chicken!"

”Gosh, Sasha, I had no idea you were so tight with a buck,” Willa jabs.

“It is when it comes to paying for your meals.,” Sasha growled.

“Now, now,” Kate said, “I think we’ve had enough fighting for one day. You two at least be polite or I might not like it.”

(The way she says this and the firm look in her eyes make Willa and Sasha quickly nod, though they can be seen exchanging secret dirty looks as they all go out).

So all is not exactly all sweetness and light among the pretty punchers... well even a good thumping hasn't stopped Sasha from having the last word at least when it comes to the team dinner. And was Kate Winslet correct to make this bout happen in first place? There are surely no complaints right now but every day brings something new and PLP aren't only the prettiest girls around but also the moodiest and most inconsistent bunch north of El Paso... and that always provides exciting match-ups everywhere around the country!

Final result: Willa Holland def. Sasha Pieterse TKO8.
