Akino Sanada Vs. Chloe Ruiz

The current situation was by far from a favorable one, so far the match had not gone on for very long and it seemed like it was being a constant back and forth between the two relative newcomers to AFW. It was clear to the crowd that both of them were putting on quite an awesome show for them and there was probably a lot more to come as this was still very early in the match...or at least they hoped, they did of course not want this match to end so soon...but judging from the current predicament that wasn't an impossibility.

Chloe fought and clawed against the mat, struggling and wiggling her frame in the sort of inverted type of boston crab which Akino had locked in on her. She could already feel how the grip was slipping and how things were starting to look a bit more in her favor for now. Sadly for her it didn't take too long before Akino figured that keeping the hold as it was, was not a smart idea. As such the blue haired girl began to change her hold, and Chloe was too slow to do much about it.

With Akino's legs wrapping around her own leg and soon having the girl drop down onto her back, pressing her frame down against the back of the tan skinned girl. Her arms soon wrapped around the white haired head and an STF was locked in tightly. Pulling back on Chloe's back and her neck in a painful manner which caused the red clad wrestler to groan and whine in the hold.

She had to fight out of this hold and find a way to combat Akino. Chloe grit her teeth as she bore the pain of the submission hold, pressing her hands down against the mat as she tried to press her free knee down as well. From there Chloe would try and use what power she had in an attempt to flip the two of them over, so that Akino was on her back against the mat, with Chloe on top of her. Following which the Brazilian would attempt to clench her fist on the opposite side of where Akino's head was located and attempt to send it over her frame above her shoulder to try and smack Akino in the face with a flurry of wild punches, attempting to fight her way out with and explosive barrage.

Akino heard the crowd's clearly approving response to the back and forth action that had occupied the match to this point. Though for the moment, the pendulum of momentum had swung to Akino's side, as the Japanese woman transitioned from her modified boston crab into an STF. And the timing couldn't have been better. Another second or two in the previous hold, and she no doubt would have completely lost her grip on Chloe's legs and given her a chance to escape.

She squeezed her legs around Chloe's trapped limb, and pulled her arms back on the woman's head, cranking up the pressure on the hold to inflict as much damage as she could with it. And if the groans that came from her foe's lips were a sigh of anything, it was that her hold was working to perfection.

However, the clever Brazilian suddenly managed to roll aside and onto her back. Akino's STF was still securely locked in, but now Chloe was the one on top with Akino underneath her. For a moment, the blue haired woman was unconcerned. That was until Chloe's fist then flew up and smacked right into Akino's face.

"Agh!" she grunted out, her head flinching in reaction to the hit. And from there Akino could already tell where this was going. Maybe she could keep the STF locked in from here until Chloe tapped out, that is, if Chloe's wild punches didn't mess her head up too much first. And considering the chances of making Chloe submit this early were not particularly high anyway, it wasn't worth the risk. So after three or four punches found their mark on her face, Akino abruptly released her hold and kicked Chloe aside. She then rolled aside and pulled herself up to a knee, keeping a cautious eye on her foe. "Hmph. Not bad…"

Chloe's struggles started to pay off as she was soon enough able to roll the two of them over, it was but the first step to fight against this skilled submission user. Chloe didn't think it was too wise to try and out wrestle Akino on the ground right now, the blue haired girl had already shown that she was quite skilled when it came to submission holds...this was after all the third hold she had been trapped in and the match was only just starting. As such Chloe opted for going a more rough and hardcore route, fitting for the match type and all.

After a couple of wild punches from the Brazilian, the Japanese girl was soon forced to let go of her and force Chloe to role off and away. The girl quickly rolled further and pushed herself up to her knees, glaring back at Akino as she did. When she heard Akino's words and watched the maid clad wrestler move up towards her feet, the tanned girl would do the same.

The red clad wrestler would shake her head as she moved her hand up towards her neck and rub it slightly. " Heh, what are you talking about ? We haven't even started yet!" Chloe shouted out as she'd proceed to start and rush towards her fore. Seeming as if she was going to go for a tackle or spear of sorts. However, in the last moment she would attempt to slide at great speed through Akino's legs, feet first and attempt to grab onto Akino's ankles with her hands as she came through in order to try and pull them out from under the girl and have her trip and fall onto her front down against the mat.

If she was successful then Chloe would attempt to quickly jump up to her feet and try to rush off towards another side of the ring, rushing at great speed like a rocket in motion. She'd attempt to bound of the ropes to add to her momentum and come back running towards what was hopefully Akino's downed body. In the run she'd attempt to jump forward and flip over in a front flip attempting to then come crashing down with her rear down on the small of Akino's back, attempting to crash down on Akino's frame.

Akino’s proficiency with submission holds had already come in quite handy in the early goings of this bout. She’d managed to lock a few different holds in on Chloe, and even if no large amount of damage was apparent yet, she knew her work thus far had been a good starting point to move from. But still, Chloe was clearly a tough customer. The woman’s confident words were evidence enough for that, in addition to her readiness to jump right back into action after escaping yet another of Akino’s holds.

“Is that right? Well then, show me what you’ve got!” Akino replied with a grin as she got back to her feet, watching as Chloe did the same. The Brazilian then made a dash right toward the dress-clad woman, and Akino’s instincts immediately told her to prepare to counter some sort of reckless, head on tackle. Wait until she lunges, then grab the arm as she makes contact and... she started to think to herself, but her planning was quickly derailed ad Chloe went with a completely different tactic altogether than she expected!

Instead of charging right into Akino, the white haired woman dropped down and slid between her legs, grabbing a hold of her ankles and pulling her feet right out from under her. “Oomph!” Akino gasped as her chest, stomach and face all simultaneously fell forward and crashed onto the mat. Unable to react in time to put her arms up and ease her landing, the impact drove more air out of her than Akino would’ve liked. And unfortunately, Chloe wasn’t done there.

As Akino had just placed her palms on the mat and begun to push herself back up once again, her foe had already gone into the ropes once again. And before she could get any further past that point, Chloe flipped through the air, and a sudden weight crashed down on Akino’s back and drove her front right back onto the mat. “Agh!” she shouted out as her body was sandwiched between Chloe’s rear and the ring.

" You asked for it." Chloe let out after she had managed to take Akino down onto her front in such a manner, perhaps it was a bit too humiliating a way to take the blue haired girl down as no doubt the crowd got a bit of a thrill in how easily the trip had looked for Chloe to pull off. For someone so used at fighting on 5th gear constantly in full speed when need be and with such a swift acceleration it was not a difficult task to take people by surprise.

The best way to describe Chloe's speed was simply not in pure top speed but also in acceleration. The ability to go from 0-60 as fast as she did was something that caught many people unaware at times. Hopefully it would keep paying off as Chloe had already decided that she didn't want to be trapped in many of those submission holds of Akino's. When she ran off towards the ropes and came running back at Akino, she was just as fast and before the girl had even managed to push herself up Chloe was there and crashed down right onto the girl's back. Crushing her between the mat and the momentum of Chloe's falling weight.

This was a great moment for the red clad Brazilian to go for something a bit more impressive of hers. As such the white haired girl quickly jumped off of Chloe, standing at the side of the girl as she'd attempt and send a swift but strong kick towards her side and attempt to have the girl turn over onto her back, so her front was facing up towards the arena lights. " Brace yourself, fool!" Chloe shouted out as she then quickly would sprint off towards the ropes, as fast as a rocket just like before. In the run she'd jump up and try and catch her feet onto the middle ropes, attempting to bounce off of them to jump up further into the air and backwards. As she did the high flying Chloe would try and flip backwards and come crashing down towards the maid clad wrestler for a impressive lionsault! Attempting to sandwich Akino between the mat and herself yet again only this time with even more momentum and gravity behind the drop.

Akino was certainly not pleased that Chloe had managed to trick her and take her down with such ease, but it wasn’t quite enough to be considered embarrassing or humiliating. After all, she was aware how speedsters like this tended to work, and quick, innovative takedown like this were not exactly uncommon. Still the fall had given Chloe just the opening she needed to crash down onto Akino’s back almost immediately after. Unfortunately, the Brazilian wasn’t satisfied just yet with her offensive.

As soon as she lifted herself of Akino’s back, the maid clad woman quickly attempted to force herself up as well, only to receive a big kick right to her side before she could do so. “Ugh!” she gasped as the impact pushed her over onto her back, instinctively bringing an arm to cover the spot her foe had struck. And while she tried to recover as quickly as she could, Akino was in perfect position for Chloe to continue her assault.

The white haired woman made another dash toward the ropes, and the next thing Akino knew, Chloe was already flipping back through the air toward her with a lionsault! Not noticing in time to react, the Japanese woman could only move her arms underneath her oncoming opponent and slightly ease her fall to reduce the amount of damage she was about to take. It didn’t help much though, as Chloe’s torso crashed down right on top of Akino’s, driving the wind out of her. “Gwah!”

Not only had she managed to take Akino down but the proceeding actions of smacking her frame down against the blue haired girl had served her quite well. The following actions seemed to flow just as naturally as Chloe managed to get up without any problem and then proceed to send that hard kick down against the side of Akino, forcing the bustier girl to roll over onto her front and be right open for the Brazilian speedsters next move. She darted across the ring and near flawlessly jumped up onto the ropes and bounced off of them, it didn't look as if she had done it a million times though, it was more a look of her simply discarding any fear of it might be going wrong, and as such is had just happened to be a perfect success...even though she had probably done it a few hundred times before in matches.

The tanned girl flipped in the air and once again came crashing down hard upon the blue and white clad girl. From which the red and black one smirked at the impact, her frame driving down into Akino's and getting that loud yelp out of the girl as all that air was driven out of her. Chloe's hands moved down to the mat and she quickly tried to push herself up and take a step back. Looking down upon the frame of Akino for a second before the speedy high flyer would attempt to charge off towards the nearest corner and quickly try and scale it.

Jumping up on the ropes and getting herself up onto the top as she'd stand on the top two ropes with confidence and an arm held up high into the air. " Quebre o céu!!" The girl would yell out, resorting to her native tongue as she often did when she was fired up. As she remained on the top ropes she waited for Akino to start to move up from her downed position before the red clad wrestler would attempt to jump off towards her opponent. Aiming so her feet were on a trajectory towards Akino's side or back as she came flying down the girl would try to curl up her legs against her body in order to attempt and shoot them back out as she neared Akino, attempting to have her feet smack into Akino not only with just the momentum and weight from the jump but also with the pushing power of her legs, as she tried to come in hot with a loaded shotgun dropkick.

Following Chloe’s successful lionsault, Akino panted as she lied on the mat, her body fighting to regain the air that had been driven out of it. Her instinctive, last second move might have prevented something more serious from happening, like a rib being cracked or broken, but the impact had still served its purpose quite well. And from the corner of her eye, Akino watched as her adversary quickly moved to go climb up the turnbuckle.

The thing with high flyers like this is, as their momentum increases, their caution tends to decrease. The Brazilian had managed to unleash a quick, but effective flurry of offense on Akino, with each move becoming riskier than the last. But she also knew that the riskier these moves became, the higher the reward when they hit. And as Chloe ascended the turnbuckles, the blue haired woman knew she needed to make sure whatever her opponent was about to try didn’t hit, whatever the cost.

And so she began to pull herself up, grunting and keeping a hand over her stomach as she went. “Ugh...” Soon Akino was up to a knee, and right as she started to push herself up further, she watched as Chloe leapt into the air and kicked her feet out at her. But at the last moment Akino stepped to the side and out of danger, quickly swiping a hand against the side of Chloe’s leg to tilt her body back a bit more in the air, intending to send the high flyer crashing and burning back first onto the canvas.

Things were going well so far for Chloe as she had managed to get in a few really good hits upon the blue haired maid clad wrestler, one trip, two drops and one kick. If things kept going like this then the Brazilian could assure herself that this match would certainly be in her favor, now that she had the momentum going there felt like if there was no stopping the red clad rocket of a wrestler. With her heart racing and her body fired up as it was she was ready to get on with the show and hit some more high impact moves upon her foe.

However, as she sent herself down towards the girl she found that perhaps that was not the case. When Akino had gotten up to her feet the girl quickly stepped out of the way of her shotgun drop kick and instead swatted those legs of hers away, and act which only threw Chloe off course and made it so there was no way that she could catch herself now. The Tanned wrestler crashed down onto her rear and back against the mat. " Yeow!" She yelped out in pain as her move had crashed and burned worse than a comet, or at least so it felt...there was no time to just lie there though.

Chloe quickly tried to roll away from Akino, attempting to try and create as much distance as she could and perhaps reach the ropes. She knew there was no rope-breaks in a hardcore match like this, but without a doubt she was sure that if need be she could escape through those ropes, if only she could make it there in time.

As Chloe was sent crashing onto the mat, Akino stumbled over to the nearest set of ropes, then rested against the top rope as she took a moment to catch her breath. And as she glanced over, she saw her foe was now rolling over toward a different set of ropes, no doubt to create distance between them so she could recover as well.

If she wanted to head outside the ring, that was just fine with Akino. In fact, the blue haired woman suddenly ran toward Chloe before dropping down and aiming a sliding dropkick at her midsection, aiming to send the Brazilian toppling onto the floor outside the ring. And once Chloe was outside, Akino would move to an adjacent side of the ring before sliding out under the bottom rope as well.

"I think it's time we start getting to the 'hardcore' part of things." she muttered to herself, crouching down and reaching underneath the ring to see what sort of lovely toys were waiting for her there. The crowd began to mutter in anticipation, which picked up as Akino then emerged holding a kendo stick seconds later.

Keeping an arm over her aching midsection, Akino held the kendo stick in her other hand while walking back to where she had left Chloe. She would then stand right behind the white haired woman and waited for her to get back up, taking the kendo stick in both hands and holding it like a baseball player getting ready to hit a home run. And the second Chloe was up enough to put her torso within striking distance, Akino swung for the fences, aiming to slam the weapon right into her back.
