Shizuko vs. Suzumi: Tarot Card Incident Battle

Suzumi had been surprised a few times in her career inside the ring. She had not been surprised by the level of skill Shizuko had shown so far but as they grappled and Suzumi was pushed back to the ropes by virtue of only having one good leg her jaw nearly dropped as Shizuko spoke. If it was true, then awesome. If it was a tactic to get Suzumi to drop her guard or be so stunned she couldn't act.... well it had worked!

"Ngh....w-wha? I mean.... I get it I am an uncoordinated airhead outside the ring and all and bump into lots of things accidentally..." Suzumi barely stammered back as she shook her head, struggling to push herself back off the ropes but failing to do so, as her leg was still too hurt to push off of. Suzumi was stuck and being powered around by the tarot card reading clairvoyant!

Perhaps the middle of a match was not the most ideal place to bury multiple hatchets and come to consensual agreements...or perhaps, it was the perfect place to do so. Shizuko having worked out the majority of her festering aggression to the point where her feelings of animosity towards Suzumi had dimmed dramatically, where she finally started listening to eachother's dialogue and began processing just how silly they were acting.

"...I...I suspect we were both at fault than, over all of this. Though I see now that you meant no ill will. But come, that doesn't mean we don't have matters to settle..." Shizu huffed out in the grappling pin against the rope, before abruptly positioning one of her arms between Suzu's smooth thighs for a grip on her backside. The clairvoyant overpowering the Tsunami further by hoisting her upward and away from the ropes for an attempted powerslam right back in the middle of the ring.

Suzumi was still in shock as she struggled in vain against Shizuko. "Ngh.... y-yeah totally.." Is all she could muster before being picked up and brought crashing down hard to the canvas in the middle of the ring! Shizuko packed hidden power and the tsunami paid the price for not seeing it coming.

"Arrrggghhhhhh!" Suzumi groaned after the thunderous landing leaving her writhing and kicking flat on her back. It was clear that she was in quite a bit of pain and completely on the defensive, reacting to Shizuko as best she could although as of late she was a rag doll in the hands on the tarot card reader!

Whether they were reconciling or not...the match was still ongoing and the fires of competition were not ones easily quelled. Shizuko was now fervently deadset on outperforming the Tsunami and showcase that she could do more than mere submissions. Her seamless powerslam maybe not having as much jarring force had some of the more gargantuan competitors pulled it off, but it did the job of centering Suzumi back into the middle of the ring. Wherein Shizuko would begin positioning herself around Suzu's legs, and begin intertwining them with her own in an attempted application of her Figure Four submission, The Chariot...

Suzumi was down and putty in the hands of Shizuko as the woman began to wrangle her legs and twist them about. Suzumi knew all too late what was coming and as the figure four leg lock was set in she howled loudly in agony! "AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The tsunami's shrill cry filled the air and she began to scramble, thrashing and swaying side to side!

It looked like she was in a panic but Suzumi knew if she could force them to roll over the pain of the hold would switch and it would be she who had Shizuko stuck! Suzumi was doing all she could to use her momentum to get them to roll over although it was far easier said than done. Still, Suzumi kept trying to pull off the roll and the pressure reversal!

Knowing full well just how much damage Suzumi's legs had taken up until this point of the match thanks to the psychic's deliberate targeting, she assumed that her opponent was in no position to endure anymore strenuous submissions centered solely on them. Shizu remaining calm and composed in direct contrast to the flailing agony of her opponent...that is until she realized it was far more intentional than she thought, Suzu turning them over so the angled pressure was on the clairvoyant's leg joint's. "Aaaahh!!!" Shizu wailed out while while balancing herself on her trembling arms, shaking her head "No" to the referee's asking for a submission. One more rolling twist landing them on their side, but allowing the psychic to unfasten their legs and allow them both time to breathe as she remained sprawled out on the canvas.

Suzumi felt the two roll over again but this time the hold was released leaving both women able to recover. Suzumi tried to get up but the damage done to her legs cause her to stumble and fall back over in a heap. She was hurting but she knew she had to rise back up in order to get back in the fight. She knew Shizuko would soon rise so Suzumi once again pushed herself up and while the rise was slow she did make it back up to a vertical base.

Suzumi took a deep breath and moved towards Shizuko attempting to hold her hands up for a grapple before spinning around, raising her leg as she tried to smash Shizuko across the abdomen with a spinning kick!

Although not as weathered and battered as her fated adversary, there was no denying Shizuko's own fatigue as she flopped across from Suzu and started climbing upward at her own stilted pace. A veritable submissionist's duel on display as they exchanged limb torturing manuevers and airway inhibiting chokeholds, both of their endurance levels being tested with the Tsunami proving herself to be just as proficient a technical grappler as the clairvoyant.

"...*pant*pant*..." Shizuko wheezed deeply once she was back on her weary feet. Standing tall faster than Suzu, but opting to take her time recuperating rather than taking the fight back to her immediately. Regrettably approaching her with grappling intentions only to have her breadbasket caved in by Suzu's spinning kick. The psychic huffing out the air in her lungs through her puffed cheeks with a hunched over cradling of her stomach, her thick rump jutted outward as the top of her head tapped Suzu's abdomen.

Suzumi had managed to halt Shizuko and she had to act. With Shizuko's head right nearby Suzumi opted to grab it and smash her knee into Shizuko's face to further stun the woman. Suzumi then tried to wrap her arm around Shizuko's head and fall back planting her to the mat with a DDT! Suzumi wasn't trying to be fancy she was going for fast, simple, blunt effectiveness at this point. She needed to soften this woman and wear down her endurance before trying to put her in a gauntlet of submission holds, doing all she could to fight her way back into this match.

Breathless and wheezing out what little air she had in sputtering coughs, Shizuko hugged her abdomen tenderly after being stopped dead in her tracks with a stomach pummeling spin kick even the psychic didn't anticipate. Though while breathing deeply to process the pain with panic stricken eyes, her misfortune would continue upon the Tsunami bashing her knee against the clairvoyants face. A quivering shudder trembling through her arched over frame as her arms went limp like wet noodles immediately upon impact, complicit with a dulled over listless to her half-lidded eyes before having her head snagged once again into a cranium implanting DDT right into the ring canvas. "......" Shizuko remained silent throughout, although the image of her being balanced on top of her head with her plump ass in the air and legs spread to the side painted the portrait of her pain well enough before she eventually slumped to her side in a rattled daze.
