The Girl in Black

It's probably among the oldest trap in the book as far as wrestling was concerned, but it worked wonders from time to time. Kuro didn't need a reminder that she didn't need to be smug. Not this early anyways. Carmen started to pull her hands away, and would succeed in doing so pretty soon, which meant she had to take action.

Releasing the hands of the boxer, Kuro would then attempt to twist herself to the side, hoping to take down the Latina to the ground and trap her in the scissor still. Maybe that'd allow her to be a bit smug.

Carmen made a mental note to ask Kuro what she was doing to keep her skills honed while she was out of the ring. Whatever the case, it worked, because she still had good fire - if this had been in front of a live crowd, they'd be cheering her on.

But Carmen had her arms free, which meant her best weapons were back in play. So, when Kuro rolled her over to the side and started to exert some real pressure, she struggled in the hold for a moment, twisting around...and then she went back to work. She wouldn't be able to get too much power in the blow, but she lashed out with two consecutive blows, targeting Kuro's stomach.

Kuro was starting to have a somewhat sadistic grin on her face as she began to squeeze Carmen some more in the scissorhold. Watching and feeling the girl's struggle between her legs excited her to say the least, although what followed after that brought her full attention back to the spar.

"Nnghh...!" she grunted as the first blow landed on her belly, her legs loosened significantly.

The second one hurt slightly more because the damage stacked, and Kuro decided to release the boxer from her hold. Not before she gave a hard shoving kick to the girl's belly to send her rolling away, though.

"Hey, hey... I said submission holds only..." the pale skinned girl protested while she rubbed her stomach.

While getting kicked hardly made her day, Carmen was more than glad that she wasn't being squeezed in half anymore, taking the opportunity to swallow some full breathes of relief as she went rolling away. She made her way to her knees and looked back at Kuro as realization came over her face.

"Oh, crap, I'm sorry." She shuffled over, getting a little closer. "I thought you meant we could only win with submissions, not that we could only use them." She thought for a moment, then opened her arms to the pale princess. "Free move? Anything you like."

"Oh well, not that it matters too much..." Kuro sighed as she slowly picked herself up to her knees. "Maybe I should have been clearer."

What she heard afterwards drew a smirk on her face, though, and Kuro would slowly approach the boxer on her knees, stopping very closer in front of the girl with that mischievous expression still intact.

"Anything? Aren't you nice..." she said before moving around to position herself behind the Latina. "Maybe I should say... foolish as well!" added Kuro as she'd attempt to snake her arms around Carmen's to lock the girl in a Full Nelson while both of them were still on their knees.

Carmen knew she was in trouble the moment she saw that devious little grin on Kuro's face. The girl could be sweet, but subtlely evil at the same time, and just that look in her eyes sent a cold shiver down the Puerto Rican's spine. Giving her a free move probably wasn't the wisest thing, but it was fair. Maybe too fair, but it was all in good sport.

She immediately began to thrash when she felt the hold get locked in, squirming about and trying to find any give - she wasn't having much luck. Not only was the hold expertly locked in, but this position didn't give him many options aside from wildly twisting from side to side. None that were occurring to her at the moment, anyway.

Kuro grinned wider behind Carmen as she tried to contain the girl's squirming. It's been a while since she had a fight, so she's going to try enjoying it while she could. The boxer being her opponent was a big bonus so she had to make sure that she made the most out of her dominant moment.

"You can do better than that," teased the pale skinned girl, blowing her breath on the back of Carmen's neck.

She'd abruptly let go afterwards, however. Part of it because she felt that it's only fair for her not to cripple the Latina with a free move, and the rest was so she could try another hold on the girl. Shoving Carmen onto her front, Kuro would attempt to straddle the girl's back so she could begin to set her up in a Camel Clutch position.

And there went Kuro's breath down her neck, tickling her hairs, making her giggle even with the pain she was going through. That was the problem here, wasn't it? There were mind games with this, and Kuro was clearly more experienced with them.

Carmen tried to get free the moment Kuro let go, but it only wound up making things worse - she actually helped push herslef ot the floor, and the next thing she knew, she was trapped in a tight camel clutch, with Kuro's hot breathe blowing her hairs away. Good hold. Solid hold. Carmen only saw one way out, and that was to crawl like she'd never crawled before, dragging her body along the floor and making her way towards the ropes with all the effort she could muster.

Kuro just smirked as Carmen tried to crawl her way to the ropes. The girl should be able to do it given her strength advantage, not to mention that she's not really stretching the boxer's form with the hold since this was supposed to be a spar only.

"Just a bit more, you can do it," the pale skinned girl sneered, making fun of Carmen's getaway attempt while occasionally rocked herself back and forth a bit to make things a bit more difficult.

When the Latina finally reached the ropes, Kuro did loosen the hold so it wouldn't really hurt Carmen anymore, but she remained sitting on top of the girl for a bit instead of letting go.

"No ref. What now?" she asked with an unseen mischievous grin on her face. "But maybe if you beg..."

It was a long, hard journey to the ropes, and Kuro made every inch of it a monumental struggle. How many times had Carmen been in a camel clutch? Twice? Maybe three times? Always sucked, but Kuro had a way of making it even more distressing, even if she wasn't pumping it with all that much pressure.

She finally reached the ropes and held on tight. And held on. And held on. Almost on reflex, she'd expected a break at that point, but Kuro seemed to have a little trickery in mind. "Serio?" She let out a long sigh and released the ropes, going back to languishing in the hold.

Even though she couldn't see it from her position, she knew her tormentress was smiling above her. "Never begged before, not sure how to do it." She bit her lip and defiantly started rocking from side to side, trying to throw Kuro off balance - if she couldn't break the hold, she could at least mess it up.
