[Standard Match] Black Crow vs Sachiko Takahashi - Yin And Yang

Almost unconscious, the Black Crow tried to find the strength in herself in order to regain control of her body. But the strength of the last movement of her rival precisely canceled out all the efforts of the Englishwoman in this match. Even though the brunette acted without a shadow of doubt, her movements were always to some extent elegant and without unjustified cruelty. This was one of the reasons why she left MMA. Too much blood and violence. She found wrestling a much more civilized sport. Although after two matches, which she successfully lost with the maximum shame for herself, she began to become convinced that this opinion was wrong. And the Japanese girl who just bled her just gave another reason for doubt.

Blood flowed in a thin stream down Lily's face, who could not bring herself to move. Only the screams of the audience now made her realize that she was still here. She even found this fact a little ironic, the loudest screams were always at the very moment when her affairs were bad. Karen received the biggest ovation just when Lily was no longer able to continue the match. And now the same could be said about Sachiko. The Englishwoman could not do anything when the pink-haired girl came up to her and grabbed her, forcing her to her feet. Lily's legs were now most like cotton wool, and her rival had to almost literally drag her to the ring.

Closing her eyes, the brunette tried to start breathing evenly in order to restore at least some strength. It was very clear to the former MMA fighter that now she would be in the ring again and then the Japanese girl would go for a pin attempt. The Black Crow's brain was desperately trying to find a way out of this situation. There was less and less time left as Sachiko had already dropped Lily's body under the lower rope. She understood that she would not be able to resist now, and this only meant that she needed to break a pin at the very last moment in order to stay in the game.

And indeed, not even a moment passed when the pink-haired girl lay down on her, pressing her to the mat. It didn't take long for the striped shirt to fall down next to them and start counting. The Black Crow's thoughts were still confused, she felt something strange. Something that she could not explain, but that something gave her strength. Lily's amber eyes widened involuntarily, and her heart began to beat faster. She began to take quick and very short breaths. The girl tried to keep her breathing even, but she could not do anything, she did not understand what exactly was happening to her. But suddenly the answer came to her.

"Ah, I know, people call it anger," thought Lily.

Although she could not feel as an ordinary person could, even she had some principles. The lack of emotion did not make her an beast, which seeks only to kill its victim. In this context, this meant that the Englishwoman did not seek to win by all available means. And right now, she felt the real feeling of anger spreading through her body. This smiling girl decided to ignore the standard match and expects Lily to just give her the victory because of this?

With a painful groan, the brunette put her hand on Sachiko's shoulder, pushing her to the side, while Lily herself jerked in the opposite direction, trying to take the distance. She didn't even keep an eye on the current count, but with a glance at the referee, who showed only two fingers, she realized that she had managed to stay in the game. The Black Crow got up on all fours, her face still contorted with pain, she could hardly restrain painful moans. She remembered very well from the days of MMA that an open wound cannot be painless, regardless of size. The girl put her hand over the cut, and then looked at her fingers, there was still blood.

She clenched her jaw to silence herself and then rose to her feet. Her head was heavy, as if someone had placed a stone inside, the Black Crow still felt the consequences of her rival's actions. It's funny. From the moment she came to AFW, Lily managed to feel only a few emotions. But this was the first time she felt anger. Lily wanted to straighten her black bow on her head, but did not find it. She glanced to the side and realized that her accessory was now lying near the place where her head collided with the edge of the ring. In a way, the Englishwoman felt naked, she always wore this bow on her head, no matter if she was in the ring or somewhere else. The Black Crow looked her rival directly in the eyes. What is it? Why does she look like she's sorry? Did she really think smashing her opponent's head on the edge of the ring in a standard match was safe? Did she really think pinning Lily with a broken head was a mercy on her part? A hypocrite.

“I hate hypocrites,” she said suddenly in a flowing and even bewitching voice.

It was the first and last thing she was going to say in this match, but even that was enough to make the spectators' faces stretch in amazement, everyone knew that the Black Crow did not speak during matches. The girl raised her fists to the level of her chin and took a protective boxing stance. Well, if her rival has no reason to hold back, then and she won't.

The pink-haired girl did not react in any way to the words of the Black Crow. It cannot be said that this somehow worried the long-haired brunette, but still, the complete lack of reaction caused her some questions. Did this mean that Sachiko just didn't care about Lily's opinion, or that she was simply do not want to talk after she failed to keep her rival down? Well, some questions remain unanswered, the Englishwoman knew that.

She also knew that she was tired of bleeding in her matches. She had no complaints about the second match, where she was beaten unconscious, it was she who chose hardcore rules that time. But she had a question for her first match when Karen bled her. Yes, of course, no one is immune from injury, Lily knew perfectly well where she came. Yet she counted on some semblance of self-control from her rivals. But it seems that neither Karen nor Sachiko had this quality. Well, if this pink-haired girl is ready to break the head of the Black Crow, then the Black Crow is ready to do the same.

The former MMA fighter's amber eyes flashed as she rushed forward. Her bloody face didn't make her attractive, but now she cared little about it. The fire that ignited in her soul because of anger cleared her mind of pain and now she was ready to repay her rival. And only victory will be a fair price for the fact that the pink-haired girl shed the blood of the Black Crow. Lily raised her fists a little higher, pressing her elbows to her torso, it's time to show why she rightly considers herself a great boxer.

Not having covered even half the distance, the girl began to move on her toes, making multiple, but very short steps. This allowed her to constantly shift from side to side, which, combined with constantly shifting fists, should have made it difficult for the Japanese girl to perceive. There were only two steps left and she will finally reach the desired distance.

"A crow flying with the speed of the wind," Lily told to herself mentally.

And suddenly she accelerated, closing the distance much faster, now she could make a first blow. But instead, the long-haired brunette made a pendulum motion, lowering her upper body down and then shifting it to the left. A boxing style built for impenetrable protection. Only a few people in history have been able to turn this into a weapon. The defensive style that Mike Tyson turned into something everyone feared him for. And Lily was able to reproduce it in the smallest detail. Peek-a-boo was the pinnacle of her boxing prowess.

With this pendulum movement, she was going to literally disappear from Sachiko's field of vision for an instant. And if that was enough, then she would emerge from her dive in order to turn her body to the right, sending a powerful left hook into her opponent's right ribs! It would certainly make the pink-haired girl turn to the right in order to at least see Lily. And in order not to meet the Japanese girl face to face, Lily intended to make another pendulum movement, this time in the opposite direction. And this time, if she managed to disorient Sachiko again, she would turn her body to the left, sending a crushing right hook to the pink-haired girl's left cheek! This was far from the limit of the Black Crow's capabilities, but she was genuinely interested in how well her rival could cope with at least this!

It was at such moments that Lily could remember why she even began to engage in fights and everything connected with them. Now, as her fist slammed into the pink-haired girl's face, an unusual wave went through her body. She still could not explain it, but she remembered the first time she saw all the beauty of a real fight. Those times were far behind, but something still remained with her. The fight was one of the few things that could make her start to feel at least something.

And today's match was no exception. Good or bad, but for the first time in a long time, the long-haired brunette remembered how was it to feel angry. The last emotion she experienced was deep sadness. She couldn't be angry with the girl who left her alone. Sooner or later, everyone left her alone, we can say that she no longer had the strength to be angry with such people. Karen left her, leaving her alone with a sense of loss. And now the Black Crow was grateful for the opportunity to feel something different.

That is why she was not going to stop. Her righteous anger awakened passion in her and this made her stronger. Proof of this was when she sent a second hook to another part of Sachiko's face. And it seems that the many hours trainings were definitely not in vain. The Japanese girl didn't just miss two punches from the Englishwoman, it made her stagger backwards. Lily's eyes flashed as she realized that her rival's back was pressed against the corner. From a boxing point of view, the pink-haired girl was now in the worst position possible.

Without hesitation, the Black Crow took a step forward, keeping up with Sachiko. If her opponent could continued to hold the defense, then she would surely make a series of quick punches to finally make Sachiko get lost in space. However, due to the fact that the hands of the Japanese girl were on the ropes, and her head was lowered slightly, this was not necessary. Before giving a worthy answer to Sachiko's tough move that led to the wound on Lily's forehead, she intended to weaken her opponent to such an extent that she would not have even the slightest opportunity to resist.

“Let's see how you like that…” the girl thought.

Taking a step with her left foot, the Englishwoman turned her body with the left side towards the Japanese girl. At first it might seem that this position is more suitable for a kick or something similar. But then viewers could see what the long-haired brunette was actually going to do. Her right hand was already pulled back. Amber eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the intended target.

And then her right hand began to move, perhaps it could not be heard due to the noise of the audience, however, if there was silence in the hall, then surely the speed that she put into this movement would create a whistle. Her bare fist was clenched and this fist gathered all the power that the wide angle and incredible speed could provide. Right now, the Black Crow was about to send an astounding right uppercut straight to Sachiko's chin! And if a regular uppercut could only stun strongly, then her signature version, which she called the crow's peck, should have almost ripped the head off her rival's body!

Lily exhaled loudly as her fist collided with her rival's chin. Despite the loud screams of the audience at this moment, which distracted her, it did not escape her sharp gaze that her rival's eyes rolled back. The force of the blow was so great that the body of the pink-haired girl was literally thrown aside before she collapsed onto the mat without any signs of movement.

Almost immediately, the Englishwoman turned and sank down. The Black Crow sat on Sachiko's stomach, grabbing her opponent's throat with her left hand, while her right hand raised upward, her fist pointed directly at the Japanese girl's face. Unlike the start of the match, when there was not a single emotion on the brunette's face, now her bloody face looked different. It was especially in her eyes. You could see rage in them now.

"If you've decided that you can break my head, then why can't I turn your face into a bloody mess?" thought Lily.

Her fist began to drop and at that moment some of the audience even screamed. This was not surprising, it was not the first time something like this could be seen in the AFW ring, even the Black Crow watched several matches when one of the wrestlers beat the other until he lost consciousness, even despite the referee's attempts to stop it. She would never have allowed herself this in any other situation, but she was not an ordinary person. She didn’t know how to control anger because she almost never felt something like that. What was common to others was something unknown to her.

The Englishwoman's fist stopped a few centimeters from Sachiko's face. Lily's hand was trembling and the exact same trembling could be seen on her lower lip. Her mouth opened and she began to gasp for air. The long-haired brunette had no idea why she had stopped. It was only somewhere in the depths of what people called the soul that she knew that anger was not the feeling she really wanted to awaken. And that even if such a smiling person as her rival is ready to go to cruelty, breaking Lily's head, this does not mean that she should do the same.

“Damn…” she muttered barely audibly, showing her voice for the second time.

Instead of hitting the pink-haired girl, Lily slid off her, lying across the Japanese girl, pressing her breasts against Sachiko's. She intended to grab Sachiko's far leg and pull it to her opponent's chest in order to close the classic pin. The referee girl, who was sure that now she would have to drag the Englishwoman away from the pink-haired girl, did not even immediately find out what had happened. And only Lily's look made her fall next to the girls in order to start counting.

"One!"

On the one hand, it was like a drug. Few were able to understand this, however, for Lily, who for most of her adult life did not feel absolutely anything, any emotion was something like a dose that makes her brain go crazy. What was the absolute norm for any person was the most incredible for the Englishwoman. Emotions covered her so rarely that she too quickly forgot what it was like to feel this or that emotion.

And even now, she has not yet completely let go of the urge to succumb to anger. It was a negative emotion, but it filled the void inside the long-haired brunette. And she wanted to do everything possible to prolong this moment as long as possible. She wanted to smash her rival's face for such a tough and dangerous step she attacked the Black Crow's head. It was not revenge, it was not retribution, it was banal anger that gripped Lily.

And only a distant voice of reason stopped her now, suggesting that she should not act as Sachiko did. Lack of emotion doesn't mean you have the right to be cruel. And this meant that even in a fit of anger, she should not turn into a monster. Perhaps she has robbed herself of victory right now. After all, if she had sent a dozen punches to the head of the pink-haired girl, she probably would not have been able to continue the match. Well... she'll find out soon enough.

The Black Crow lay across the Japanese girl, grabbing her leg. She wasted a bit of time, but she still had the hope that her last uppercut was powerful enough. She wanted to end this match, which so far has not brought her anything good. Yes, she liked to feel something, but anger was definitely not her favorite emotion. So now the Englishwoman wanted to hear three claps. Especially considering that the first clap was already done.

"TWO!!"

Lily squeezed her opponent's leg even tighter. One more clap and it'll be over. The brunette even held her breath. This was not her main goal, but still she wanted to get the first victory. And now she had such an opportunity, because she saw the referee raise her hand for the third time. The Englishwoman was sure that this was her moment and that this match was over at the moment when the hand of the striped shirt began to drop.

"What?" thought Lily.

Suddenly and without any warning, Sachiko jerked her shoulder to the side, straightening her grasped leg. The pin was broken, which was confirmed by the girl referee, who raised her hand, showing only two fingers. Lily sighed wearily. She was really tired. The girl put her hand on her face, the blood almost stopped flowing from her wound above her eyebrow, but almost the whole face of the Englishwoman was covered in blood. The match is not over yet, which means that there can be no question of rest. She looked at her rival, who refused to surrender and decided to continue this confrontation. This was very unusual. At first, the Black Crow thought that her rival looked too sweet, too innocent. But now, when she not only broke the Englishwoman's head, but also broke the pin, Lily began to understand that there are a lot of devils in the still waters. Lily once again regretted not hitting her opponent one more time before the pin attempt.

"In that case, I won't accept any complaints," thought the brunette.

With a quiet, but tired groan, the Black Crow was about to rise to her feet, and then grab the hand of the pink-haired girl. If she really did intend to continue the match, then Lily was not going to hold back any longer. and if this time she really has to break the face of this unusual girl, then she will. Although for now she decided to do it a little differently. Lily was about to jerk her opponent up, forcing her to her feet. And if she hadn't had a problem with that, then she would have let go of Sachiko's hand. But only in order to turn around on her own axis. The Black Crow wanted to get the impulse, and then channel it into her straightened palm in order to cut Sachiko's ribcage with a spinning knife edge chop!
