Three warnings: It took place in 2015, itis long, it is brutal.


This rematch was already a stark difference from their first fight. Katie and Janet drove in together. The closer they got the less they said. Both Janet and Katie got out of the car and stayed there hands on the roof and head between the arms.
Last time was brutal, the fighting was brutal the recovery was worst. Even as the survivor of the fight Janet had trouble sleeping thinking of the pain Katie put her through. It was on her face for months, it was the longest she went without working.
Katie had fought harder in that fight than all her other fights combined, she threw harder punches to Janet than any other time but she lost. Now they were to fight in front of a room full of people again and she could potentially lose to a woman that when they were fighting she hated but she adored at all other times.
Janet heard about the brawls Katie got into she was there when Katie fought Michelle Trachtenberg. Michelle used to have a great reputation but she hadn’t fought since Katie knocked her out cold. The fight Katie had with Carla McGlynn was hard but in the end it was Katie standing atop McGlynn and she had two more very tough fights with Rhona Mitra and Jennifer Morrison. None were like the personal woman vs woman supremacy of the Plaza war or outright hate of Rose Leslie. Or the reason they were here the fight with Emma Watson which has got them in each other’s line of fists
“Should be you and rose here, she went too far.”
“Cost me my fight with Aubrey but we waited long enough. We’ve always known we’d have to do this again.”
“You and Rose will fight straight up one day and I’ll be there to cheer you on.”
They walked in to the fighting pit and stopped just before the crowd was completely silent as the two stood shoulder to shoulder outside a opening. They looked straight ahead and there was Erin Richards hands on the rail, knuckles bloody. Katie and Janet looked back at each other neither were a fan of Erin and her attitude towards them but this wasn’t about Erin. It wasn’t about Rose, it wasn’t about Emma. It was about a rematch that the celebrity catfight world demanded and they were going to do it in England where it belonged.
Janet refused to look over at Katie and surveyed the crowd. She followed Erin recently on twitter and respected her attitude but did not like how she handled herself when it came to inserting herself into a feud she had no part of. Through DM on twitter they agreed that she would fight the winner of her fight with Rose. She saw Sigourney Weaver in the back a woman who long held a belief the two had not fought.
Katie looked around and saw Sigourney she and everyone there knew this was a rematch. There was Angel Coulby who begrudgingly agreed to watch the rematch standing next to Sigourney. Angel was already near tears. Every English celebrity but Rose Leslie was present. This was a lot of pressure to win the fight.
Katie had to win this fight, she barely lost the first marathon fight and could not be known any longer as being so close to winning but losing. Janet had to win because everyone needed her to teach Katie a lesson after Katie hurt Emma Watson. They both had to fight because of how close the first fight was, they always knew a day would come where they HAD to fight again and today was the day.
“Ladies come to the center.” They kept their heads down refusing to look at each other and they had no clue who was asking them to come to the center. “This is a rematch for you two, you go until one quits or one can simply no longer fight. You both agreed to no rules.”
That got both their attention as they only agreed to it as they felt the other wouldn’t ask for it. They then looked at each other and now the look was different. Now they were back on Merlin in the pit. Hating the sight of the other, ready to demolish the other. The crowd actually went silent but they didn’t notice anyone now just the other. It stopped being about Emma Watson, it stopped being about the first fight, the friendship was forgotten in the middle of the British Fighting Pit right now.
“You want no rules, fine but remember you asked for this.” Katie said
“Irish, I have no restrictions on me now so I’m going to end you quicker. You’re not wanting rules guarantees that fact.”
Katie went for a short right hand but it was blocked and Janet came for her own but Katie blocked it. Both did the same counter bringing their left hand up and outwards allowing the forearm to hit the wrist of the other woman stopping the punch.
Katie was tad quicker than and got her left hand behind Janet’s neck and pulled. She moved aside and whipped Janet into the railing. Janet’s back hit hard but she moved when Katie went for her throat ducking low and moving to her right
Janet got back to the middle “Come on then.”
Katie turned slowly and smiled “Oh I will.”
Both had their hands up tight to their faces and elbows doing the best to protect against body shots. They tried to make targets smaller and focus was laser like on the other. They stepped in and then out after a punch was thrown. Each barely landing their punch, they knew what the other was capable of more than any other woman alive these two knew what the other was capable of in a fight.
Janet threw a jab and Katie backed up a quick step but Janet had a feeling she would and wanted to show a difference in this fight from the last. She threw a right kick aimed at Katie’s thigh and connected with a thud.
Katie’s eyes opened. Their first fight they had those heavy skirts on and it made the fight so kicks were used but not effectively by either woman. This time Katie had known it would be different but she wished it was she who showed that to Janet and not the other way around.
Janet faked a kick and Katie flinched and she was hit with a jab and a big step forward right that put Katie McGrath down. The impact and technique caused Janet to fall forward and she put her hands on the bannister. The crowd was cheering and Janet was face to face with Erin Richards “Whatever” Erin said.
“You’ll see.”
Katie had crawled away a few feet and Janet turned her attention back “Down so soon.” Katie then kicked her in the stomach and she got back up
“Oh I’m ready now.”
They walked around the pit and then went to the middle hands down and started trading right hands. After ten each they tied each other up as much for a chance to recuperate as it was anything.
The cheering on crowd meant they still had to do something so they were taking turns on stomping the others right foot.
They pushed apart and Janet threw a punch which Katie ducked and hit a counter under Janet’s arm then stepped and hit a back elbow to the back of Janet’s head. Janet was dazed but not down and Katie grabbed Janet by the arm turned her around and hit a punch that put Janet down. She walked away and looked at Erin Richards “I can’t wait to see you two fight but you never had a shot against me…” Someone else took Katies attention; Eva Greene was in the house.
She heard Janet getting up and turned but Janet was already up and hip tossed her to the ground “I’ve been in enough fights to know how to get up silently.”
Katie hit a kick to the top of Janet’s head.
McGrath spun onto her stomach and got on her knees and looked up. She could see Janet and right behind her was a smiling Eva Greene. Janet had Erin watching her and she had Eva watching.
Both were bobbing and weaving. Throw a punch and it got dodged from some tremendous upper body and head movement. They both went for a single leg take down to the right leg but ended up down on a knee where they spun and backed away quickly knowing the power the other possessed.
They both tried to get inside and ended up tied up and went around in circles and Katie actually got outside Janet’s hip and lifted her and was able to throw her to the ground but Montgomery was going for her hair and flipped Katie over her fallen body.
