Green Flame

"Tch...", Melody let out as her leg didn't connect, trying to pull it back and move away before Chelsea had a chance to counter attack...

...only for her Chelsea to move into the range, and swing her leg straight for the taller woman's head, Melody having no chance to block!

"AAAH!", she screamed, dropping to a knee as she heard loud ringing in her ears, Chelsea getting her good with her attack!

Her kicks connecting with a solid thud Melody was clearly reeling as she dropped to her knees in front of her. Taking a step back she would line up her shot and go for a side kick to the girls face looking to keep on rattling that girls brain and try to bring her full you the floor. If they were in a spar she figured she could try something that she was still getting used.

With the girl on the floor she would try and grab her legs and pull them up and closer to her as she tried to hook around them and lock Melody in a figure 4 leglock. Trying to force the girl to get out of a pretty tough submission hold while she felt out how to secure the hold.

With her dropping to her knee, Melody couldn't effectively fight back against Chelsea's oncoming attack...unluckily for her, the redhead simply continued to press her advantage, launching her leg into the side of the greenette's head to further daze the woman!

The brutal kicks elicited a growl from Navi, hoping her friend would come bouncing back...

Once again, no such luck, as Chelsea would grab both of Melody's legs before locking it into the Figure 4 Leglock! Had Melody been somewhat aware, had her senses not been scrambled, she might've been able to fight back...sadly, Chelsea's kicks rattled her this badly...

...and the hold would snap her right out of her headache!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!", she let out a loud scream, feeling massive pain in her left leg!

...but, she would be undetered. Snapped out of her daze, Melody would try and quickly remember how to escape the hold from her lessons with Navi...and, 10 seconds later, once she did so, would attempt to turn on her stomach, to force Chelsea to turn with her...and in addition to that, turning her own Figure 4 hold against her!

Bending the Greenete's legs in the hold Melody looked to be in as bad a shape as Chelsea figured the hold would do to her. With the redhead in control for the moment she mostly focused on getting a feel for the hold. Though even then Melody wasnt interested in remaining idle as she tried to turn as fast as possible before eventually getting them t turn around...which suddenly caused a lot of pain in her legs instead.

"Aggghh..." Chelsea screamed out shaking her head as she pushed up and tried to hold out as her legs felt the pressure of the hold turn against her. Trying to push up, Chelsea looked for some measure of safety to help her get out of her own submission hold.

Thankfully, Melody was quick on her wits, quickly reversing Chelsea's hold against her. Lesson one Navi gave her on doing holds was simple - all the ways one could counter a simple Figure 4 Leglock, a move that, while powerful, has developed quite a few weaknesses over the years...as well as quite a few variations.

Untangling her legs from the redhead's, Melody quickly tried to get to her feet, hissing in pain as she felt sharp pain through her right leg, the move doing a semblance of damage to impact her speed. Still, the tide had turned in her favour, and she wanted to keep it that way until the end of the battle.

Waiting for Chelsea to rise up on her feet on her own power, Melody would firmly ground her hurt right leg...

...and once Chelsea would be up, she would rotate on her leg, wincing in pain over exerting pressure on it, and launch her left leg straight for Chelsea's jaw for a Super Kick!

Stuck in her own submission hold the girl attempted to move towards the ropes before Melody untangled her legs from her own as the two separated. Chelsea felt her own legs burning from the pain while Melody seemed to struggle getting up as well. Both girls slowly got back up to her feet as Chelsea made a move to turn around right into Melody's superkick.

"AAuugh!" Chelsea dropped like a sack of bricks down to the mat from the kick floored for a second as her head was rattled by the move. Her hands went to her face as she curled up and tried to defend herself even as her face felt like it had been stomped in.

With Chelsea down from a hard kick to her face, Melody realized that this was a perfect opportunity for her finishing hold. In her mind, she believed she worked over the redheads leg enough for her to tap out to the move she waited to try out the whole match.

Grabbing her right leg, Melody would cross it with Chelsea's worked over right leg. She would put her foot through the loop before turning the redhead on her stomach, harshly driving her own right leg into her left with an Inverted Figure 4 Leglock!

Laid out by the kick Chelsea was stunned but not completely out of it. At least not yet but she still didnt like the position she was in at the moment. Trying t recover n the floor as she moved around her Melody instead grabbed her legs and tried to turn her in and around in a different hold. While she was trying to get loose she felt the girl twisting her legs and turning it into the Inverted figure 4 leglock that started t seriously twist her legs.

"AAaagggh!" She screamed out her body shoottng upward as she arched and struggled in the submission hold refusing to give up but not having anywhere to go in her current situation. Chelsea shook her head and tried to turn or crawl in a direction as she attempted to find some means of getting out.

Melody felt the pain from the hold from Chelsea's screaming. Smirking to herself, she knew there was little chance that the redhead wouldn't tap out...

...but it would turn out that this chance would still happen, as Chelsea was managing to crawl towards the ropes!

Melody increased the torque on the move, while Navi, smirking at Chelsea, would remark: "Ready to quit, Red?"

The hold was agonizing to say the least but not so much she was going to be calling it quits. At least not now when she knew she could reach the ropes soon enough. Even if she had to drag Melody across the ring to do it she was gonna keep fighting. Her arms slowly reaching out for a ropebreak once more.

"N-No.." She muttered and shaking her head as she pushed towards the ropes. She knew that if she didnt she was in serious trouble and hopefully with one more push she would find her freedom.
