Tammy Naga vs Haruko Hitamura

For the moment, Tammy had lost almost all of her focus on the match. She couldn't help herself though, she was so excited, she got to meet her first Neko! This was a day that the depressive girl could never forget, especially because of the smile and how excited it made her feel. She hadn't felt this way since the day she decided to start wrestling,

With her hands still tightly around Haruko's waist, practically snuggling her from behind, Tammy actually gave a loud cheer, practically giving off a high pitched squee before her right hand shot right for Haruko's ears, making haste in fulfilling a desire she had, as her fingertips glided up along to tickle just behind Haruko's right cat-ear. She was extremely pleased to have permission to do this, not even bothered with thinking about a fight at all right now as her soft fingers gently rubbed behind her ear, not even her nails seeming to scratch to hard, as she had a very careful but surely pleasing rub for the Neko's ears.

Haruko cringed at the high pitched squee in her ear, but thankfully it was short lived. She started to smiled a little, and leaned up into the stroking. "This... this actually feels nice.." She admitted, and started to purr a little, content with a small break in the match.

Now she was purring~! It was all too adorable, and Tammy; the once emotionless, blank girl who never wore a smile, was now grinning from ear to ear, her worry about her pain, the match, or anything else by now simply washing away as she got caught up in the moment, enjoying her time with the Neko. "I never thought I'd really meet a real cat-girl." Tammy said softly, her enthuisiasm still there, but managing to maintain it by now as she hugged the girl from behind still with her one arm, keeping herself pressed into the girl's back and enjoying her company. Her other hand continued to scratch her ear, but even Tammy seemed to relax some, nearly closing her eyes as she kept Haruko close to her. She wasn't sure what else to do, she had dreamed of meeting a Neko for so many years, and now that she had, she didn't know what she should do or say.

Haruko leaned her head up to the ear scritching, closing her eyes and smiling softly. "Well... as enjoyable as this is... I think maybe we should continue on with this match. You've already had more than a break right now." She chuckled. "So.. could you get off me and we could continue this match evenly?" She suggested politely.

The moment Haruko spoke about the match, reality snapped back into Tammy, and she blinked a few times as those golden eyes scanned the area, looking like she was dazed under a spell. How could she forget!? This was a match, and here she allowed herself to become completely lost in her little fantasy of having one of her personal goals fulfilled. It would have to wait for later, because now was most certainly not the time!

Suddenly, Tammy moved her hand away, only then realizing that she was smiling, and quickly released Haruko, backing away. "Ah.. u-um... y-you're right. I'm sorry about that." The girl actually had a little bead of sweat trickle down her forehead as she smiled nervously, a little embarressed with herself after that. She had been flooded with so many little emotions right now, and after holding them back for so long, they were coming out in buckets after her encounter with a Neko.

Still, now wasn't the time for her little joyful moment, and as she was reminded of her exhaustion, Tammy took a deep breath and tried to regain her focus, casually slipping back into a grappler stance as she suddenly felt a twinge of pain in her arm, reminded of what she had gone through earlier. Despite this all though, as she remained defensive, Tammy was still smiling, determined, but certainly smiling. And for a girl who bottled up her emotions, her soft face with those golden eyes and gently flowing, long black hair, the smiled seemed to really fit her, it was a lot more precious than the scowl she always carried on her face.

Haruko couldn't help but giggle a little at her realize what she was doing.

"It's ok.. lets just continue." She said, moving back into her grappler's stance, and started to approach her carefully, and would try to lunge in to grab for her arms.

Okay.. back to the fight. She had to stay focused, she couldn't let her little fantasy in being able to snuggle, pet, and hold a Neko in her arms get to her head. She had a match, and she needed to keep herself thinking about it, and nothing else. But.. how could she? Practically a dream of hers had just come true, and although she had always kept this hidden desire of hers a secret, she couldn't help herself from just pouring out all her feelings about this.

However, as she entered her stance, both hands out in open palms and her body bent forward, she was slowly getting a grip on herself, and tried to keep calm, seeing Haruko's approach. Tammy wasn't quick enough to back away, but did manage to shift herself a little as she only got one arm captured by Haruko. And unfortunately, it was her arm that already had been in pain from the submission, causing Tammy to grit her teeth and bite down as she tried to hide her pain, cringing as she tried to pull away with a frusterated growl, swinging her other arm witha wild backhanded slap to Haruko's face, hoping to shake her off.

Haruko kept hold of that arm and saw her other hand coming for her and tried to duck down to avoid her backhand, and at the same time manuever behind her to trap her up in a basic hammerlock submission, but it would no doubt hurt a lot more than it normally would due to how sore Tammy's arm was already.

Losing her balance in the swing, her tired body causing her to be a bit more sloppy with her attacks, Tammy clearly missed her target, only to throw her hand in a more vulnerable position as Haruko took hold of it with deft expertise. Tammy yelped out and tried to struggle herself free, bucking her hips and trying to move her body out of the submission, but she found herself caught in Haruko's hold, barely able to tolerate it as she cried out in pain. Her smile was gone, and her eyes opened wide as she yelled, stomping her feet into the mat as she tried to tolerate it all as best as she could as she was helpless in the hold.

Haruko felt a twinge of remorse trapped Tammy in this move. Despite it being a basic submission, it was really putting her opponent in some pain. She felt her trying to struggle, and leaned in towards her ear.

"Please submit... I don't want to have to make this any worse.. I'm worried enough as it is." She whispered.
