The 'Love' Letter

Rose walked into the locker room, and started to take off her cowboy hat. She sighed softly, deciding to take a shower for now, having worked up a nice sweat a while back. She starts to fiddle with her corset, groaning as it was always a royal pain in her rear, and worse to get it back on. She stood in the middle of the doorway between the lockers and the shower stalls, struggling with the ties of her corset. "Grh.. stupid.. thing.." She grumbled.

Akshi was marching through the locker room with a scowl on her face. She was a woman on a mission and held a crumpled letter in her hand so tight that her hand was white and shaking. She was searching for the author, one Ms. Rose Deltora and she was looking to shove it right back in that bitches face.

She came upon a scene of the cowboy trying to undo her corset and fumed. "Gaijin!" She yelled out to get her attention. "I read your fucking note." She whipped it at Rose. "Anytime!" She yelled. "And since you're so keen on fighting dirty I'll fight you in a hardcore match! Bring those damn knuckles! Falls count anywhere... Submission or knockout only. And the submission has to be accepted by the opponent. You hear me? I want it as rough and dirty as you can bring it. I'l play your game and beat you! And I won't be satisfied until you're out cold or begging me!"

Rose didn't turn around as Akashi was barking at her. Oh, she heard everything all right. She knew how steamed she got her, and that's why she didn't pay attention, until after she felt the woman was done yelling. It was then that she finally looked back at her over her shoulder.

"I'm sorry, you were saying something? Kinda having a problem with my corset, so I didn't really hear what you were yapping about." She replied, as calmly and as casually as she could muster, just to get further under the sumo's skin, wanting her so mad that she starts tripping over her own feet metaphorically.

Akashi narrowed her eyes at Rose's rebuke. It certainly made her madder, but she suddenly grinned and slid towards Rose. She would try and reach out and snatch away the corset strings and then pull them as tightly as she could. "How rude of me, let me help!"

Rose felt Akashi grabbing the strings of her corset, and gagged as the corset was suddenly pulled super tight. "GHaakk! ..Not... how.. you take off.. corset.." She says in a strained tone, and tries to throw an elbow backwards at Akashi's head. If she let go of the strings after, she would continue with her comeback. "I would think knowing how to take off a corset would be common knowledge to whores."

Akashi let go when she saw the elbow and ducked back. She wasn't looking for a physical altercation of that kind at the moment. "Oooooh. You needed help taking it off!" She said feining ignorance. "Sorry... But I thought corsets were for whores. I tie my Yukata in the back, thank you very much. Now you going to give me my match or do you just want to call names like children at school?"

"They are if you don't know how to wear em right. You see an inch of skin exposed on me?" She asked, motioning to her body and how it was completely covered in clothing. She then decided to give the woman an honest answer. "And you got yourself a fight." She replied. "Just don't be upset when you're fucked up so bad you'll need a stretcher." She added casually.

"Tch. Covering up doesn't mean anything. Some geisha are completely clothed and they still spread their legs for the right price." She smirked. "At least a common whore doesn't pretend to be something she's not." She then narrowed her eyes. "I've been in that position before. I'm hardly scared." She said with a serious tone. "I just hope you can handle it when I'm doing it to you."

Rose raised an eyebrow when she insinuated that she was pretending to be something she wasn't. "I beg your pardon?" She asked, narrowing her eyes at her.

Akashi smiled at Rose's sudden outburst. It felt good to get a rise out of her. "You must really not be good at paying attention." She said. "I said... You can dress up a whore all day long but in the end she's just a whore!"
