Serafina Kunisada vs Daisuke Takeuchi

Rules: Standard Pro wrestling rules
Victory Condition: Submission or KO only

In the midst of his busy schedule, one could ALMOST forgive the wrestling prince for not holding up to his promises. However, Daisuke had certainly not forgotten about his challenge to a particular person he met in the Gym not too long ago and he certainly had not forgotten about his promise to make her submit in front of the live Tension crowd and make her bow down to his feet, finally acknowledging him as the prince of wrestling.

It did take a while for him to get everything official especially since this being a cross-promotion match, but the prince managed to pull in a few strings and call in a few favours to make this happen and now finally, he was going to get his hands on....Serafina.

Daisuke:

"Tch, think she's something huh? Well, I'll show her tonight the consequences of crossing paths with the prince of wrestling" he said to himself with his nose held high whilst looking at himself in the mirror, adjusting his briefs. With that, Daisuke would make his way out of the locker room towards the arena. His music cued and he made his way out to the arena, straight away making his way down to ringside and sliding into the ring from underneath the bottom ropes. Daisuke would then quickly get up and bounce off the ring ropes, doing a few short sprint laps in the ring before settling in the middle of the ring, stretching his body and limbering up.

By tonight, Serafina Kunisada's brain could have used a break from Daisuke Takeuchi.

Why? The fault was purely the Latin Ninja's own. Since she had run into him at the gym, successfully tricked him up and gotten him to issue her a challenge to a real submission match, Sera hadn't been able to get her mind much off of him. Not that he would have been super charming, all that handsome or a great character, no. In fact, the reality had been quite the opposite. He had been brash, annoying, condescending, and....a hunk. But even the latter, not necessarily in a good way.

But La Liana Azul still knew that she was going to be facing him in the Tension ring soon, and there had been no time better spent than preparing to face him. Checking out all the info that she could get out of him, his history in AFW or his fighting style...whatever she could find. And it was all running circles in her brain.

One reason for that was that what she had found out wasn't exactly all that reassuring. He indeed had history at AFW. A lot of history. So claiming to be the "Prince" probably hadn't been too far-fetched at all. He had obviously battled so many ladies before that he must have been quite a legend in Tension by now. Combining that info with his size advantage and his muscular form - a rookie ninja girl like Serafina may not have been exactly the perceived front runner tonight.

Then again, Sera had managed to fool him already at their first encounter, and proven that it wasn't impossible to handle the guy. If she just was confident, acted smartly and thought clearly, she must have had a chance to beat him, right? Besides, while doing her research, La Liana Azul had run into quite a few pictures of the Prince having gotten defeated...

Well, there was only one way to find out.

Serafina Kunisada - La Liana Azul:

As the mystical tunes of La Niña del Volcán triggered some rather considerable murmur among the crowds, many could not figure out who was going to be appearing to face the Wrestling Prince tonight. This was La Liana Azul's singles debut after all, and compared to Daisuke's fame she was practically a nobody.

"Hopefully not after tonight though..." Sera thought to herself as she finally made her appearance, gracefully walking down the ramp with her eyes fixed onto the middle of the ring. Daisuke's trained form becoming increasingly sizeable in her eyes, the Latin Ninja kept her sight firmly on him all the way until she was by a turnbuckle. Finally climbing up onto it, she turned her sight to the crowds' direction, and bowed in the typical Japanese manner to each side before jumping down into the ring in a Somersault and setting her sight to Daisuke again.

Instead of standing still or going to meet him in the middle of the ring, Sera began to walk wordlessly in broad circles around him, in constant movement and looking him with a great degree of suspicion. On the other hand her goal was to make him feel at least a bit intimidated, but on the other she also tried to mask any uncertainty that may had still been running though her brain.

Now that Daisuke had made his way into the ring, all that was left was to wait for Serafina to make her way down and the prince would finally put her in her place for disrespecting him in their gym meeting last week. When her theme cued, Daisuke would raise his eyebrow and roll his eyes upon watching his opponent make her way down to the ring. Many of the Tension faithful crowd were not privy to just who Sera was or what prompted a submissions only match but so far they seemed to get behind anyone who faced the prince.

She would make her way into the ring in a rather acrobatic fashion and would straight away make her way towards the prince, walking in broad circles around him whilst not saying a word. The prince would simply grin whilst he stood in the middle of the ring, following her every movements. "What? Are you that much of a coward so as to not even meet me face to face? Come on Sera, be a real woman and meet me head to head" he taunted her waiting for a response.

The prince continued to stand tall, flexing his muscles and rolling his shoulders in a cocky and confident manner.

Serafina was taking a good look at Daisuke, circling him and trying to find any cues of his behavior, her brain working overtime on trying to make the best possible prediction on how this match would be going. Technically, the fact that the victory conditions were submission or KO only could have actually been promising for La Liana Azul - with her submission skills - but then again Daisuke was really muscular and confident, potentially telling of the risk that he could just overpower her and knock the rookie out.

There was only one way to find out, and apparently Daisuke was already coaxing Sera into doing just so. She wasn't sure whether it was a signal of her behavior intimidating the guy or whether he was just considering it to be laughable, but nonetheless the Latin Ninja knew that she had to face him now. Besides, she felt quite ready to do so.

After his words, Sera walked right in front of her opponent, looking straight into his eyes and leaving only inches of air between them. "No, I'm not a coward, Daisuke. I just didn't think that you would be man enough to face me up so close... Or am I wrong?" While she was saying her words, Sera's head kept on calculating the best course of action to take. While she had to make effective use of her physical skills tonight, any help that she could get from the psychological side of things was surely going to be appreciated. And just to see how the psychological tone of the match would be set, as the bell rang, Sera decided to take a step back and offer her hand out for the Prince to shake, waiting to see how he would react to it.

With the proud prince stepping up to the middle of the ring, he would not take his eyes off his opponent. Whilst in the ring, he made sure to study her guard, her posture and whether just by judging her fitness level she could match him straight up in a test of strength or grapple battle. When, in his mind, he was sure she had no chance against him he would step up to the middle of the ring and demand that she would do the same to meet him face to face.

Rather surprisingly, she didn't seem to be threatened by him either and would walk up towards him until they were face to face in an intense staredown. "I guess you were wrong you peasant. A prince will always look to put his servants in place. Take a good look at your conqueror" he said. When the bell rang, Sera would take a step back and offer him her hand in respect.

Daisuke would chuckle and raise his eyebrow in disgust before slapping that hands of her away. Hoping that would cause the distraction he wanted, he would lunge in to try and wrap his arm around her head for a simple yet effective side headlock to kick start the match.

"We'll see about that."

Daisuke didn't seem to fall for Sera's taunting, nor fail to respond to her words in an equally disrespective manner. If anything, his choices of words were even more condescending. Obviously, that was nothing that Sera should have been surprised of. And she wasn't.

The Latin Ninja still had her dignity and respect though. It didn't matter if she did not appreciate the attitude of her opponent - not at least before the match had even begun. Thus, offering the hand shake was the only logical thing to do. Needless to say though, she knew well enough that all wrestlers did not always appreciate that kind of things, especially those with an arrogant attitude. Thus, having Daisuke declining her hand shake was nothing that Sera should have been surprised of. And she wasn't.

But the quick attack by the Prince that followed? That did surprise her.

What La Liana Azul was expecting was some more words from the muscled guy after he rudely slapped her hand away, but instead she was provided with a side headlock! "Nngh!" Quickly pressed firmly against her opponent's ripped body, it was obvious that the guy had managed to get a bit of a headstart. Sera was trapped, for now, but the blue-clad ninja soon began trying to unleash some chops to the guy's side, hoping that they could get him to loosen the hold - and potentially provide Sera with a chance of catching a side headlock of her own!

The staredown was brief but it served its purpose. Neither of them was even a little bit intimidated by the other nor was their taunting going to phase each other either. From hereon now, it was only going to be their wrestling ability that would prevail and prove to the other who truly was the more skilled wrestler. After all, this whole argument between them was to see who was better in the ring.

After the two parted ways, Daisuke refused to shake hands with his opponent and used that moment to lunge in to trap her in a side headlock. His firm biceps bulged around her head whilst he had her face pressed against the side of his pecs. His hips would buck into hers and he seemed to be in control of the situation.

Until, Sera would make her move by delivering a few chops to his side which made him grunt in pain and was enough for him to loosen up the hold. That was all the woman needed and she slipped out of the headlock and trapped him in a headlock of her own.

"Mmff! Tch, damn you" he hissed, looking to wrap his arms around her waist and squeeze her for a brief moment before looking to use said grip to try and whip her into the ring ropes and attempting to free his head in the process.

Daisuke's side headlock was strong and tight, and how his biceps and pecs felt against her head clearly signalled the newcomer that his strength was nothing to take lightly. There was real power inside the Prince, most likely way more than the Latin Ninja had herself, but Sera knew that she had her own set of skills that could overcome all his power, if used wisely.

The headlock was a prime example of prime example of that, and so was the way Serafina found her way out of it! Her chops did the trick, and even so well that her plan of applying a side headlock of her own worked very well! And to say that the Latin Ninja was happy about it would have been an understatement...

Obviously Daisuke wasn't happy though, and soon initiated his efforts of shoving his opponent towards the ropes! And while Sera did enjoy having the headlock, she wasn't actually all that against of gaining some distance to her opponent. In fact, the Latin Ninja was quite confident that it could actually serve her well...

Thus, eventually it was rather easy for the Prince to send La Liana Azul right where he wanted her. And Sera wanted to stay exactly there... Taking support from the ropes, she turned facing the guy, and was getting ready for any of his attacks. She was hoping for Daisuke to actually be coming straight at her, so that she could then shoot both of her legs up in the air, and try to deliver a kick with both of her feet up to the guy's pecs to soften them up!

The two started off with energy, each trading headlock submissions of their own to each other. Daisuke's was probably a bit more firm than hers but that didn't mean hers was anything to take likely either. That much was obvious from his moans and his eagerness to escape said submission. Daisuke would wrap his arms around her waist and squeeze her in retaliation before using his grip of her waist to whip her into the ring ropes whilst freeing himself.

Expecting Sera to bounce back and come towards him, the prince readied himself for a shoulder block to take her down but what came instead would catch him off guard. As Daisuke lunged forward with his shoulder sticking out to catch her chest, Sera would leap up in the air and drive her boots into his chest for a picture perfect leg drop, knocking the prince down on his back.

"Ouufff" he cried out and fell down on his back while wrapping his arms around his chest and rolling over onto his belly.

Serafina knew that her chosen method of defence had the potential to backfire, but to the Latin Ninja's delight, her plan worked just perfectly instead! The mighty Prince had no idea of what was coming at him, or rather what was going to happen as he was coming at her, and Sera's kick was delivered spot on to the guy's chest! And not only did it stop him in his tracks, but swiftly sent him down to the mat as well!

Extremely happy of the results, Sera jumped forward away from the ropes, watching as the reeling guy turned over onto his belly. Now, the situation was just way too good to lose... If she had already gotten Daisuke down, that's exactly where she had to try to keep him!

Wanting to give no mercy to her opponent, the blue-clad ninja then jumped up, wanting to land a knee drop right in the middle of Daisuke's back! But if that ended up just as she planned it to, it was only going to be the beginning... What really was her ultimate goal was to gain a dominant spot above the guy's back, and then pull his arms into a tight Camel Clutch hold!
