Caroline Brookes vs. Lucy Stone

Caroline was feeling frustrated as she whirled around in the ring and stomped towards Lucy with the intent to confront her again. The redhead had taken a pretty big hit and still managed to break her pin, so Caroline needed to hit her with something more severe. Maybe a slam that could continue pounding her spine and hurt her knees all in one go, open her up to a leg submission if the next pin attempt failed. Yeah, that could work.

Stepping forward, the blonde rookie swung around Lucy's side to stand back to back with her, interlocking her own arms around Lucy's as she went. Taking a deep breath, Caroline hoisted Lucy up and pitched her weight forward slightly, trying to hoist the Demon off her feet and leave her stretched across Caroline's back, her boots hooked into position over Caroline's thighs. Legs and abs burning from the effort, Caroline would complete the move by reaching up to grasp Lucy's head beneath the chin, before hopping up a short distance and falling to the ground to drill the redhead into the canvas with their combined weight in a widows peak!

Lucy was groaning out as she had managed to kick out but she wasn't feeling all to great despite that. Her back was in a world of hurt and she doubted that Caroline had any intention of letting up. No instead she would try and push the redhead up to her feet and turn them around so that they were back to back. Feeling how she tried to interlock their arms.

Gritting her teeth, Lucy would try and roar out and in effort try and pull forward! Looking to use those interlocked arms to try and lift Caroline up onto her back instead! Stomping a few steps forward before she'd try and throw her foe back and attempt to slam her down with a Gory Bomb! Looking to reverse Caroline's move in her own favor!

Caroline's stomach dropped as she felt herself pulled tight against Lucy, who executed the exact maneuever she'd planned before she could! A sturdy heave from the Demon took Caroline off her feet, which swung with the momentum and got caught in the crook of her attacker's thighs, leaving her draped over Lucy's back with no leverage to escape.

“Ahh, nooo!” Caroline howled in protest, but Lucy's counter was over as quickly as it started. She bucked Caroline off of her back, sending her face down to the hard canvas, unable to even shield her face in time. She hit the mat with a thud, audience members cheering and wincing with sympathy in equal measure. From her lowly position, starfished on the mat, no one would see the blush on Caroline's face, ashamed of how easily Lucy had outmaneuvered her.

Huffing out as she would push herself up to a stead position, she arched her back a bit as she looked over her shoulder down at Caroline. Rolling up to her feet again, the redhead would try and turn around and grab onto that blonde mane of hair, aiming to try and yank Caroline up into a seated position.

Lucy would then try and pull Caroline's head in under her armpit and pull her into a dragon sleeper hold, looking to lock that arm tight around that neck and bend backwards, but she didn't stop there. Lucy would fall down onto her butt and into a seated position right behind Caroline, before she'd try and kick her legs up around that waist of the blonde! Looking to lock her right into a Dragon Sleeper and Waist Scissor combo!

Or as Lucy had coined it, The Wrathful Leviathan. Aiming to lock in one of her finishers in hopes of making Caroline squirm.

Caroline was just starting to shamble her way up when Lucy decided to help her up, in her own way. The blonde gave a soft cry of pain as Lucy seized her hair and pulled until Caroline was sitting up, wobbling a little thanks to her exhaustion. As her head was forced back, Caroline sensed impending disaster as the Demon wrapped herself around the hapless rookie, pinching Caroline's midsection between her legs and clamping an arm around her head to cinch in the dragon sleeper!

“Hnk, n-no!” Caroline wheezed, suddenly silenced as the Demon's bicep pressed her throat shut. Panic came quickly for the new girl as she realized how limited her options for escape were. She didn't know if the ropes were close enough to angle for a break, couldn't even see them with her head forced skyward, only seeing the waterfall of Lucy's crimson hair cascading down from her head. All she felt able to do was struggle, thrashing and tugging at Lucy's arm with her own, but the Demon had a very intimidating hold on her, squeezing hard enough to make the blonde shudder in her embrace as every surge of strength from her muscles racked Caroline with greater pain.

Powering out of the hold seemed impossible, but Caroline had to try. She was already getting light-headed from the loss of oxygen, and soon she wouldn't even have the strength to struggle!

Lucy's arm locked around that neck of Caroline and next came those legs of her's, snapping around that waist and squeezing both fronts on the blonde rookie. Clinching in the Dragon Sleeper and waist scissor combo that was her finisher, Wrathful Leviathan! She hear Caroline wheeze out as she clenched her arm firmly around that throat. She felt how Caroline started to struggle in her hold but she wasn't about to give an inch. Once she had locked in a hold like this Lucy refused to be pried off so easily.

Though Caroline's efforts did annoy Lucy enough to cause the redhead to bring her free arm to the front of Caroline, as she snarled out and would then try and smash her fist into that exposed belly. " Grrh...Give in you bimbo bitch!" Lucy would angrily snarl out at the blonde as she tried to hammer her with another punch, trying to make her efforts to escape dwindle at a much faster rater than the dragon sleeper alone would.

“Nnh...” Caroline moaned in despair as her wild bucking grew a little more tame, her strength failing as Lucy strangled the life out of her. The world was getting hazy, and with every passing moment, even the pain from Lucy's submission started to fade away. The redhead was cradling her to sleep, and in her delirious state, letting herself drift off was starting to feel tempting to the blonde rookie.

Lucy's colorful closing statement would have been hurtful to the kindly girl if she wasn't already at the edge of unconsciousness. What did elicit a little whimper from her lips was the thud of a fist against her undefended midsection, forcing out the little oxygen she still had as the Demon bruised her abs. The extra motivation to submit probably wasn't necessary. Caroline was no fool, and she knew she needed to spare herself the risks associated with being choked out while she still had the strength to move her arms. Without delay, Caroline raised an arm, tapping her hand against the bicep Lucy had curled around her neck to signal the match's end.

Lucy's teeth were exposed through her pained grin as she continued to squeeze on Caroline, those legs of her's tightened around that waist as her arm flexed around the neck of the blonde. She knew that she had managed to catch the blonde and she was looking to make the blonde realize that, even if she had to do so the hard way. Hammering her first into the belly of Caroline.

The whipers that escaped from Caroline served to let Lucy know that she was on the right path, soon she would have put this rookie in her place....she grith her teeth a bit harder, waiting for the moment that was soon to come, as Caroline began to top on her bicep.

The referee was quick to move in and wave her arms, calling for the bell as Lucy kept the hold locked in tight, waiting for the bell to finish ringing and the referee to start to tap on her own shoulder. Finally the redhead would release Caroline, looking to shove the blonde off of her and onto her front, as the redhead would then start to rise up towards her feet, looking to get her arm raised by the referee.

There was nothing else Caroline could do, no way to compel Lucy to release her even after tapping out. It would only be a few seconds before the ref enforced their separation, but they passed slowly, with the blonde being squeezed the entire time in the redhead's unrelenting grip. Being choked out was an especially rough way to end her debut match, and for a moment, it seemed like Lucy wouldn't let her go until she faded completely. Her body started to go limp, her tapping hand slowing down and sliding off of the bulging bicep that Lucy still had locked around her throat.

Somewhere in the distance, a bell rang, and a blurred body of black and white passed in front of her gaze as the ref urged Lucy to let her go. The ordeal was finally over as the Demon shoved her unceremoniously to the mat. Coughing raggedly, the blonde took some choppy breaths, wincing at the pain still wracking her body now that her adrenaline was starting to wear off. It was nothing she hadn't felt before, though, and when the ref came around to checking on her, she waved the woman off with a reassuring nod.

By the time Lucy's arm had been raised and her theme was filling the arena, Caroline was breathing steady and fully conscious, though she would wait a moment before trying to stand, just to be safe. While her opponent celebrated, she would try to drag herself to the ring's edge and sit with her back to the ropes, trying to keep a low profile now that she had come out the loser in this match. She was frustrated, like any woman would've been, mad that she'd allowed Lucy to outmaneuver her and steal the win. It was inevitable that some of her matches wouldn't end to her satisfaction, though. Like any other wrestler, the blonde newcomer would just have to take it in stride and work that much harder to win the next one now that she'd been broken in to the competition here at Friction's arena.
