Souko Kawamoto Vs Rainbow Mika - Standard Match

Trying to escape a chokehold was never easy. Even more so if the opponent is behind you, yours arms have a limited firing arc, and it gets tricky to try and land a solid hit. This was the exact issue that Souko had. She couldn't despite her best attempts land a punch against Mika. This made Souko quite angry with herself, she should have seen this coming. To make things worse, it seemed as if Mika was going to be content with leading the match again, using her advantage to lift Souko onto her feet, and transitioning into a side headlock. Souko was not exactly pleased with the position of her head though. Before Souko could react though, Mika shouted out the name of one of her signature moves. This was not good. A shower of punches came in, hitting her in the head hard. Each one causing Souko to grunt louder and louder. Each punch making her more and more dazed. As if it couldnt get worse, Mika then dived forward, throwing her face first into the canvas. Hitting the floor she let out aloud yelp, her nose hitting the canvas first. Thankfully it wasn't broken, but it was very sore. Souko would gasp and lie on the mat, her head and face in alot of pain, and her brain dazed right now. She was far to vulnerable right now, and if Souko didn't come to her sense, this match may be over far too early.

After slamming Souko down to the mat, Mika calmly sat back up and brushed the pigtails out of her face. Next to her, Souko lay facedown on the mat, badly stunned after the battering her head had recieved. Smiling and giving a thumbs up to her fans, Mika turned and dropped down across Souko, hooking one of the girl's legs while the ref girl dropped down next to them and started the countdown.

"ONE..."

Souko was far too stunned to out any sort of resistance. In this state she was waiting for Mika to prepare a power move of some sort. It made sense this early on in the match that you inflict as much damage as possible before even attempting a pin. Mika however seemed to have other plans. Mika got onto if her and hooked her leg up for a pin. She didn’t even bother flipping Souko over, she just went right for it, clearly confident that Souko was going to be far too out of it to put up any form of resistance, landing Mika an easy win.

“TWO!”

It wasn’t until the second count that Souko snapped back into things, almost like a machine waking up from sleep. She quickly bucked her body, trying to push Mika away but at the very least break the count. If it worked Souko would roll away to the other side of the ring and begin the process if clambering back onto her feet.

As Mika dropped down across Souko, she felt the count reach two before the other girl suddenly kicked out, powering up with enough force to throw Mika off of her. The Rainbow Warrior was sent sprawling sideways, thrown off by her powerful opponent. In truth, she was quietly pleased that the new girl wasn't being finished off so easily, and as much as she wanted to win, she was also quietly hoping Souko would make a good showing for herself as well.

Rolling back to her feet, Mika saw Souko clambering back up. Grinning, she tapped her butt cheeks, letting her fans know what was coming, and then burst into a run towards Souko. "Flying Peach!" she shouted, aiming to spun and slam her butt into Souko, hoping to slam her opponent hard against the ropes!

The match had not been going for long, but the skill gap between the two fighters was starting to become more and more apparent. Mika had been a pro wrestler for far longer than Souko, and the speed, agility and moveset she used reflected this. Mika had a attack for every situation and she had already gotten Souko in two dangerous possibly match ending holds. Souko was never comfortable about having Mika's friend around. It really unsettled her. She was worried that she might suddenly get involved if Souko got the advantage. So it was time to test that theory.Clambering to her feet she noticed that Mika was getting ready for something bad. Mika started darting forward but instead of just standing there and bracing, Souko ducked down and slid out of the ring.As the her feet touched the arena floor, the ten count started. Souko turned around, noticing that she had pretty much left the ring next to this woman, so now all Souko could do is watch as Mika was dashing for the ropes and noone was there now, she was behind the ropes, waiting for Mika to bounce away or stop so she could launch her own attack. Surely there was noway, Mika could avoid slipping up now. She wasn't that good was she??

Mika felt her momentum build as she ran, spinning at the last moment in the hopes of taking Souko by surprise. However, it was the Rainbow Warrior who wound up being surprised as Souko ducked! Alarmed, Mika found herself running past her, bouncing off the ropes and building even more momentum.

Nadeshiko was waiting outside the ring as Souko rolled outside, and she blinked in surprise as Souko rolled up next to her. For a brief moment, an awkward silence fell between the two women as they stared at one another. Finally, however, Nadeshiko simply frowned and folded her arms. "What?"

Back in the ring, Mika bounced off the ropes again, and saw Souko standing outside the ring. Huffing, she ran to the ropes and suddenly did a running leap, vaulting over the ropes and hoping to hit Souko hard with a drop kick!

Souko smiled when she saw Nadeshiko. She was tempted to strike her, to up the ante and make it a handicap match. But Mika was proving to an already devastating challenge, no need to make it harder. Speaking of her, Souko turned to see if Mika was on the floor, but suddenly as she turned Mika was running at her. In a show of rather impressive talent, Mika had done a double Irish whip and bounced back towards her, then she leapt over the ropes and dropkicked Souko right in the face. They say, there is a moment in every match, where yo can when it should have ended. It did seem to the fans that this was that point. In one fell swoop, Souko was knocked backwards and down onto the cold hard arena floor. Her face already slightly black from the high speed impact she had received. TO make matters worse crashing into the ground was no fun, Letting out a feral scream of agony as hitting the floor made Souko realise the amount of pain she was in. It was not going to get any better though, Mika managed to land ontop of her, her weight crushing down on her ribs and and torso, driving all the air out of her body. The fans loved it, everyone loved it, except Souko.

This was a standard match though. And that meant ringout rules applied. The ref had gotten to two by the time that Souko had gotten hit. While Mika had the full time, Souko had only 7 counts left once she hit the floor, and in the dazed, damaged state she was in now, it looked like getting back into that ring was going to a challenge.

The crowd let out a collective gasp as Mika's aerial assault hit home, her drop kick slamming hard into Souko and sending the new girl crumpling down onto the arena floor. Landing lightly on her feet, Mika raised her hands outwards. "Ta-daaa!" she exclaimed, basking in the applause of her fans after executing that dizzying acrobatic maneuver. Next to her, though, Nadeshiko simply folded her arms and looked sternly at her tag partner.

"Now you're just showing off," she grumbled.

Frowning, Mika turned to Nadeshiko. "Ehhhh, why you gotta be such a spoilsport, Nadeshiko-oneesan?" she pouted.

Nadeshiko sighed. "Look, I'm not going to tell you how to fight your match, but..." she gestured down to the prone form of Souko "...don't you think you're being a bit disrespectful to the new girl by showboating like this?"

Mika opened her mouth as though to protest, but thought better of it. Like it or not, she knew Nadeshiko was right. Sighing, she grabbed a hold of Souko's arm and pulled her up, moving to roll her back into the ring. If she did that, then she would waste no time in crawling on top of her, her generous bosom pressing down on the other girl's chest as she hooked a leg for the pin.

"ONE..." the ref girl counted.

The gap in skill and experience was becoming glaring apparent. Souko could try her best, but Mika was knocking her down at every time. For many fans watching, Mika had won this, and not only won it, but won it by a mile. Souko had hung on bravely but it was time to give up. Accept, Souko was ready for that. It took her a while to get her focus back, Mika had afterall knocked most of the life out of her. By the time she had come back around mostly thanks to the cheering of the crowd, Mika had already pinned her and the count was underway.

"TWO!"

The words of the ref snapped Souko well and truly out of her dazed state. She had to do something. Desperate to break the pin, Souko bucked her body, lifting her shoulders and non pinned leg to prove that she wasn't out just yet. Sadly Souko lacked the strength to get Mika off her though and while her strength was recovering, it was going to take a while for it to come back to a level where she could keep up with Mika. It was right now she had wished she had acted like a bigger heel and just bashed Mika into the canvas at the start. Trying to act honourable and trying to fight like a submissionist had not worked well for her. Souko would lie back down, knowing that she had only delayed her defeat by breaking the pin.

Mika held her breath as she wrapped Souko up for the pin, hearing the ref girl continuing her countdown. So far, so good, she thought. It wouldn't have surprised her if this was it for Souko: not many people could remain standing after being hit by so many of Mika's super combos in a row. The new girl had fought well, but she had been outclassed in this fight.

Outclassed though she might have been, Souko wasn't done yet: the new girl suddenly twisted, arching a shoulder up at the last minute and breaking the pin. Kneeling up, Mika stared down in amazement at her foe. "Ehhh? You're real tough, aren't you, Kawanamoto-san?" Theatrically wiping her forehead, she grabbed at Souko's head and pulled her into a sitting position, before wrapping her up from behind in a rear naked choke. "Nnnh...no shame in tapping now, though!"
