Nekketsu Championship Tournament: Round 1: Stone vs Syd

”So, how is the stoic and silent Stone feeling?”

”Shut it.”

”Is the stoic and silent Stone ready for her biggest challenge yet?”

”It wasn’t funny the first time. It’s way less funny now.”

”Will the stoic and silent Stone advance to the semi-finals?”

”Oh, dear God.”

Stone let out a long, drawn out groan and continued to tape up her fists, finishing up her match prep. She and the other Valkyries were hanging in the gorilla position, waiting for her match to start - usually a boring, annoying process, lots of sitting around and waiting, but Devine had taken it up herself to get some enjoyment out of it by poking fun at the way Stone had been introduced for this whole tournament. Despite the front she was putting on, it wasn’t bothering her all that much. Her friend just liked to tease, and it was a good way to loosen the nerves, which Stone was desperately needing right about now.

Mako, on the other hand, was all pins and needles, pacing in front of Stone and cracking her fists. Odd, considering she wasn’t even the one who was supposed to be fighting today.

”Mako, will you-” Stone had just started to speak when Devine leaned her way with that goofy smile of hers and gave her a pinch on the cheek. With an exasperated groan, she gave the Brazillian a shove away, along with the smile she was no doubt fishing for, then turned back to Mako. ”Will you just sit down already? Relax. This isn’t that serious.”

”The fuck it’s not.” Mako spun her way and pointed a finger right at her. ”This our shot. Our shot. Finally getting some gold for our gang, after what? Three years here.” She thumbed at the curtain. ”And we’ve got those Red Nation bitches in our way to, so we’ve got to send a message. A big one, here and now.”

That was a consideration, Stone realized that. The Red Nation had built up a rep as a group not to be fucked, and even though the Valkyries had missed them up until now, it was only a matter of time before their paths crossed and blows came. It seemed like now was the time for the opening salvo.

”Just remember why you guys are here, all right?” She stood up and dusted herself off as she moved towards the curtain, with Mako and Devine following close behind. ”Straight and narrow, just like the boss wants it. If the Red Nation doesn’t pick a fight, we won’t pick a fight. Simple.”

At least, Stone wanted it to be that simple. She wanted a clean win. She wanted to earn that title the right way, and show that the Valkyries were on the mend. She wanted a lot of things, but whether or not she’d actually get them…


Out came the Valkyries as Stone’s personal theme, with AC/DC barely able to blot out the crowd’s cacophonous boos. Nothing too surprising, but today was going to be the rare day where the fans had a choice on who to jeer - it wasn’t like the Red Nation was all that popular, either. It was kind of nice to share in the hatred for once, really.

Eager to get things started, Stone rolled into the ring and popped to her feet, as her teammates made their way around the ring and waited behind her, looking to establish the battle lines before the Red Nation came out. Best to make sure everything was clear from the start.

Sydney Sykes:

The Backup:

"...What?" Syd asked in response to what Linda just told her. Standing inside the locker room were Sydney, Linda, and Jessica. All three of the women were already clad in their tight, red one-pieces.

"...Well the Valkyries are good girls now. I mean that's what I heard. They lost to Blue Thunder and now they do what he says...and since he's basically 'Captain Boyscout', they are too." Linda said, although she was quoting her sources for the most part. Apparently Blue Thunder was a superhero...although she was definitely not an expert about that. Syd, however, was visibly upset and looked pretty bummed out after hearing this. She was expecting a huge, wild, brutal, and no holds barred fight. If they were going straight, though, would Stone be able to give her that?

"Ugh! Who cares? If they're not playing dirty like they're used to then they'll be easier to beat. But if that's not the case, then you get the kind of brawl what you want...its a win/win...just make sure YOU actually WIN the match. We've gotta make a mark on this tournament. So please...no matter what...give it your all and don't screw up..." Jessica would say, butting in to get things back on track. She seemed a little weird, though. Sure she was coming off as a bitch for the most part...but it didn't seem very malicious. Almost as if the co captain wasn't trying to be a bitch. Which was unnatural to say the least.

Still, Sydney didn't even bother pointing this out. She was too preoccupied thinking about her match with Stone. Plus, she was just going to listen to suck it up and listen to Jess for once. Not because the woman told her too. Syd knew that she was right, and she agreed with the shorter woman. Still, whatever was up with Jess bothered the she-monster. So she'd fix her attitude before heading out. "Ok lets go do this." Syd would say while swatting Jessica's ass as she walked past her.

"HEY! WHAT WAS THAT?!" the woman said, her temper immediately showing. "Hehe! What? This is normal. I'm just getting us pumped up! Didn't you watch football back in the state, short fry?" Sydney lied as she snickered at her leader before swatting Linda's strong ass to prove her point. Both women had great backsides. While Jessica's was plump, soft, and yummy...Linda's was firm, strong, and just as thicc. As Syd's palm hit Linda's ass, she yelped a little but just endured it. She knew Syd was a complete perv, but overall she could live with it. At times, she even enjoyed the she-monster's sexual antics.

"GRRRRRRRRRRRR! Just...keep your dirty hands to yourself! Jess snarled, knowing full well that she was being lied to. Syd just laughed a bit more as the three of them left. And along the way Syd would keep teasing Jess, who'd just bark back at her.

The song Red Nation played as the trio made their entrance. Normally they got boos. Most of which were aimed at Jess. Of course, since Linda and Syd were actually popular overall, they got more cheers than jeers. The fact that Jess was following from behind them seemed to help as well since the two towering amazons basically eclipsed her. Approaching the ring, Syd would fearlessly grab the ropes and pull herself right up onto the ring apron. Immediately after, she'd step through the ropes and get into the ring. Finally looking straight at her opponent, Stone, the man-eating she-monster would instinctively smirk and punch her palm with her own fist. Her knuckles were tapped up like always. She continued to stare anxiously over at Stone with a wild look in her eyes. However, something to the side caught her eye. It was the former leader...Mako...standing on the sidelines.

"HAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA!!! OH MY GOD!!! Their leader's a shrimp too! I can't believe it! She looks just like you Jess!" the woman shouted out, all of the blood lust she had built up had been erased. She just couldn't help but laugh out loud at how similar Mako and Jess looked. Meanwhile, Sydney's teammates had already covered their faces in embarrassment. Linda was just using one hand as she smacked her own forehead with her palm. While Jessica was covering her face entirely with both hands just to hide her embarrassment and to hold herself back from screaming death threats at Syd. The she-monster would stop laughing a little before the bell sounded. Raising her taped up hands in the air, the towering beast readied herself to charged at Stone as she light hopped on her toes. Sydney was looking very eager to get her hands on the big ass biker chick. And she hoped that Stone felt the same about getting a hold of her.

”Who the fuck are these cunts?”

Stone didn’t bother looking Mako’s way as she reacted to the Red Nation, instead just standing there and grimacing. She’d brought them along for insurance, knowing her opponent wouldn’t come down to the ring alone, and she’d  hoped that might be enough to keep both sides at bay. Maybe a sort of mutually assured destruction.

There was just one problem, though - Mako was Mako. Shortfused, easily aggravated, perpetually irritated. She could be kept quiet, so long as their opponents did the same, and it seemed like they had little interest in doing that. Things had started so well, with the woman coming into the ring looking ready to fight, the two of them sizing each other up, looking ready to lock horns. They seemed fairly even at a glance, and she was anxious to put that notion to the test.

But then Sydney had to go and switch focus to Mako, and well…

”I’m big enough to kick your ass, you lanky bitch!” Mako shouted back and slapped the apron. [color:7296=#Green]”Come out here and see how you stack up!”

At that, Stone shook her head and stuck her arm out to the side, focusing on the woman in front of her. ”Eyes Forward, Sydney. I’m the only Valkyrie you need to think about today...”

Sydney laughed some more as she was barked at by the shortie on the sidelines. Of course Stone made sure she was focused on the match at hand. Smirking wildly, Syd obeyed and have the woman her full attention. She was right, after all. The only opponent who mattered was in the the ring with her.

“Don’t worry...if I couldn’t ignore a loud mouthed shortie and fight at the same time...then I wouldn't be much use to my girls.” Syd explained, taking another shot at two short women. As soon as the bell rang, the she-monster would walk over to Stone with her hands raised. She planned to lock up with her fellow towering badass and get her hands all over the woman.

Jessica meanwhile was being loud. Apparently, Mako’s barking had pissed her off already and she was letting the bitch have it from the other side of the ring. “Hey! Shut up, fuck face! No one talks like that to her but me! Keep your jaw shut or I’ll break it! That includes you too, ya giant pervert!” Jess snarled as she beat her hand on the ring apron and pointed at Mako.

Linda looked like she was about to say something then, but the fiery shortie shut her down before she had the chance. “I’m not standing up for her, I’m just shutting up bitches who talk trash to us.” she explained, only to receive a look from Linda that radiated doubt and suspicion.

Mako was about to say something and escalate things further, when Stone turned just long enough to shot her a sharp look, shutting her down just in time to avoid bringing the conflict to a higher level. Someone had to be the bigger person, here, and she knew well that it wasn’t about to be her friend, so she had to shut the cycle down. The tiny tyrant stepped back, folded her arms, and kept her mouth shut, glaring across the ring at their counterparts. Silent and keeping the peace, for now.

With that miniature crisis averted, Stone focused forward and centered her attention at the task at hand, looking Syd over. It was clear why they’d been paired against each other, being the two biggest women in this tournament. Likely looking to put the two tanks against each other, take them to give more chances to the rest of the bracket.

FIne by her. This would be a great way to kick things off and show the people what she could really do - it was rare for her to have opportunity like this, a chance to cut loose with an opponent who could take the pace. She intended to make the most of it.

”All right, then.” She cracked her knuckles and stepped forward. ”Let’s get to it.”

The bell rang and Stone kicked it into full gear immediately, throwing her body into Syd with a lockup, trying to push her back towards the corner with a powerful burst.

"Hey! Eyes forward, Stone...I'M the only monster you need to focus on~" Sydney said as her opponent turned to snap at her back up on the sidelines. As soon as the woman turned back to face her, the she-monster would wink playfully at Stone to tease her. It seemed that Stone was more than ready to rumble as she cracked her knuckles and stepped forward. It wasn't long after that the bell rang officially and they'd lunge at one another.

As fast as the big ass biker bitch was to attack, Sydney matched that speed pretty well. Normally she wasn't this fast. Thankfully her own eagerness was giving her a short term boost to start things off. Then, as their body collided, there was one hell of a bang. Not only was the impact loud, but it was pretty powerful as well. The ring shook bit just from the force being exerted with their boots digging firmly into place. The whole time Syd would be staring into Stone's eyes with a wild grin. Gritting her teeth as they struggled, the red clad behemoth gave her all to be the one who forced her opponent back. Large, powerful muscles straining visibly on both sides as they fought for dominance, the two fighters seemed to be stuck in a complete stalemate for a while. Even as Syd pressed her own forehead against Stone's to push with everything she had, neither side seemed to gain an inch.

Then, after what seemed like an eternity...Sydney actually took as step back...

"...GGRRRRRRRR! Hah...hah...Damn it..." Sydney would growl out as she became the first one to be forced to backwards. Her smile never faded, though, it might have actually grown a bit more intense. "OH COME ON! DON'T BACK DOWN FROM THIS BITCH!" Jessica screamed from the sidelines as she witnessed Syd's first step back. Then, she watched as the towering she-monster took another, and another one after that. "FUUUCK!" the shorter woman cried out. Linda, who was watching silently, wanted to tell Jess that this was far from over. Honestly, a breakdown like this made it seem like the outcome was decided. The bulky woman made sure NOT to criticize her leader, though. Mostly because she worried just how loud the woman would get IF the outcome became decided in their opponent's favor...

”She’s going to go for a headbutt.”

[color:b7ed=#Green]”Nah, the knees. She’s been working on her knees.”

While Makoto and Devine argued about which move Stone would open up with, Stone herself was a little bit busy trying to actually do anything, as she found herself struggling against Syd. Right away, it was clear what sort of match this would be - a pure power battle. This was probably the first time she’d found herself struggling against a female opponent, pushing and not being able to force her all the way back. The Red Nationer’s strongwoman was fit for her role, that she expected going in, but expecting and experiencing were too different things. This woman was a threat, a serious threat.

Stone hadn’t been this excited in a good while.

It took some doing, some real effort, as much power as she could muster, but Stone was able to start pushing Syd back, step by hard fought step. It felt like Stone had an edge here - a slight edge, but an edge all the same. Still, that wouldn’t mean much if she couldn’t capitalize. How to do that, how to do that…

Stone broke away from the lockup, stopping her push and turning it into a sudden pull. She yanked Syd her way, shot her leg up, and aimed a stiff knee towards her opponent’s breadbasket, looking to fold her in half and seize the first real advantage of the match.

On the sidelines, Mako snapped her fingers and shot a cocky glare towards Devine, as the Brazilian shock her head and tsked. ”Told you.”

Despite the fact that she was getting overpowered, Syd was still having so much fun right now. The she-monster didn't care if things weren't starting off in her favor. All she cared about was how strong Stone was and how great their fight would be. The badass biker didn't just try to overwhelm the mean-eating woman with her strength, though. Suddenly, Sydney would be pulled in by her opponent. Whose knee drilled itself into her midsection, intently stunning Syd, who's tolerance for pain was pretty damn high.

Grunting out as air shot from her lungs, the towering woman fell forwards, but remained standing since she grabbed onto Stone's shoulders for support. This position was bad, but it had a sliver lining. As she used Stone to help herself stand, Syd helped herself to a face full of rack. The big ass biker had a pretty huge pair of tits. And leaning against the woman gave Sydney the perfect opening to press her face right into them in all their softness. She didn't even bother to make it seem accidental by laying the side of her head against that large bosom, though. Syd pressed her whole face straight into the woman's big, cushiony breasts...immediately infuriating Jess...who knew her teammate's 'interests' by heart.

"YOU STUPID...BIG ASS...PERVERTED...FUCK!" Jessica snarled at Sydney despite Linda's attempts to keep her quiet and calm. Eventually the bulky woman had to restrain her leader as she tried to charge the ring. Linda wasn't sure if she'd jus get pin the apron...or actually go in...but she did not want know badly enough to leave it to chance...

And now Stone had a face in her tits.

She shouldn’t have been all that surprised and she knew it - while she wasn’t super familiar with the Red Nation, she knew that they had a history of sexual antics, not known to be the most chaste of Tension women. That was fine, Stone’s best friend was a stripper, and while she’d never wanted to do anything hentai-ish in her matches, she wasn’t opposed to it on principle. Just not her thing.

But here she was. Here they were. She supposed it had just been a matter of time.

More annoyed than anything, she decided to just make the most of it. With Syd close, Stone reached over and pulled her head away from her chest and under her arm, keeping it nice and tight with a front facelook. ”Keep your head in the game.”

She brought the other arm over her shoulder, hammered her feet down, and lifted her opponent up and over with a sudden Snap Suplex, whipping her back hard into the mat from on high.
