Kasumi Tsuji Vs. Lynne Steinwich

Kasumi was a bit surprised when her elbow got blocked. She tried to retreat, since now she was vulnerable, but it was too late. Lynne suddenly grabbed her arm and kept her in place. Then, Kasumi felt Lynne's knee slam into her gut, knocking all the air out of her small body. She gasped in pain, doubling over and holding her stomach with one hand.

Content with the result of her strike, Lynne kept her grip on Kasumi's arm. She grabbed it tightly with both hands, and then her whole body spun around. She would drag Kasumi with her by the arm, trying to irish whip her into the ropes.

Unused to wrestling moves, Kasumi had no preparation for the Irish whip. She was easily thrown out, her small size giving her very little resistance to such power moves, and slammed her back into the ropes. She leaned against them for a moment, breathing hard while trying to catch her breath. She raised an arm, wiped the little bit of spittle out of the corner of her mouth, and stood back up.

"Very interesting," she said, "So wrestling is like this."

Lynne stood in place, smiling a bit confidently while Kasumi catched her breath. She didn't press her advantage, feeling it would seem cowardly to beat down someone smaller than her. However, her curiosity was enticed. "Is this your first time wrestling? I mean, in your whole life?" She kept looking at the kawaii, waiting for her answer.

Kasumi was glad that her opponent was giving her time to recover. She caught her breath, then got ready to fight again. "It's my first time in an actual ring," Kasumi said, "I mean, I've practiced before, but it is my first time facing a wrestling specialist." She settled into her fighting position again, raising both her hands in front, protecting her body.

"I've never lost a fight though," Kasumi said, "So watch out!"

Lynne heard Kasumi's words with interest, then prepared to resume the fight when Kasumi got into her stance again. "Well, I'm no specialist, but if you want I can show you some of my wrestling moves!"

Lynne would start running towards Kasumi. She would extend her right arm, looking to nail te kawaii with a running clothesline.

Kasumi saw Lynne's running clothesline coming at her choosing her moment to dodge carefully. At the last moment, Kasumi ducked underneath the clothesline, then quickly spun around to face Lynne. Then, she threw out an open-palm strike at Lynne's exposed back, not trying to hurt her so much as knock her off balance.

Lynne was unable to turn around in time to see Kasumi's blow coming. As it hit her, her balance was broken, and she staggered forward before grabbing the top rope that was now right in front of her. She'd use them to regain her balance quickly, then face Kasumi again.

Kasumi, after breaking Lynne's momentum, began her own assault. She moved right in as Lynne grabbed the ropes, and then turned around. Kasumi gathered up all her strength, preparing to launch a powerful attack. Right as Lynne turns around, Kasumi would use her powerful Shin-Ryu-Ken punch right into Lynne's gut.

When Lynne spun around, she was promptly greeted by Kasumi's fist, not having the opportunity to react. The Shin-Ryu-Ken dug into her stomach and drove the air out of her. Stunned in pain as well as surprise, Lynne gasped and hunched over, clutching her gut where Kasumi had hit her.
