The mad melody: Karina vs Seraphim (Hardcore)

What made it worse for Seraphim was how after she slammed the bat into Karina, it splintered further, cracking the bat in half, as it hung by just a few chips on one end as nothing more than a flimsy hunk of wood. Blinking at her work, Seraphim gave that awkward smile like she knew she was in trouble, before tossing the bat aside, causing it to slide out of the ring and completely break in half when it fell to the concrete floor. Weaponless, Seraphim quickly assumed a defensive boxing stance, getting a moment to be ready when she saw Karina sputtering and coughing from the blow to her gut, Seraphim poised herself, not even going for a weapon, as she awaited for what her crazed opponent had next in store for her.

“Come on, weâ€re just getting started. Fight like a real warrior and use something else!” Seraphim said in disappointment. It was one thing to use a weapon, but the same one over and over was getting old. And after being hit by it, Seraphim had a good feel of what she was working against; quite literally. When Karina spun with her guitar, trying to slam it into Seraphimâ€s face though, she saw it coming, the girlâ€s actions slower and more predictable. ‘Gotcha!†Her fists ungripped and with open palms, she caught the guitar coming at her, just inches from it colliding into her face as Seraphim realized it was a little too close. Still, the feeling of taking such a risk was thrilling, and she was loving this!

Nor releasing the guitar just yet, Seraphim started to spin a bit now as well, forcing the girlâ€s unwillingness to let go of the guitar to be a problem for her, as Seraphim started to thrust her away, spinning with the guitar to force Karina to move, before letting go after she starting swinging her enough. As she let go, it would send Karina to the ropes, or in this case, the three rows of thick, steel chains.

The guitar once again was met with a sudden stop but this time from Seraphim's hands, which made Karina blink innocently. Seraphim managed to catch it while other's don't even want to try to block it, this girl had skills, skills that could only make Karina smile though she did not show it, too angry to even think about her normal routine though she suddenly hissed out lowly.

" Don't... Touch.. My.. Guitar. "

Karina however couldn't put in a decent action from her warning as she was forced to move with Seraphim's spinning, refusing to release her guitar so Seraphim could have it and all of a sudden Seraphim had released her guitar and almost catapulted Karina backwards towards the strong chains of steel, her back slamming against it thanks to her rapid stumbling and she released a soft cry of pain, her back almost immidiatly feeling like it was on fire while her body gave in and she fell upon her knees, almost letting go of her guitar but still her hand remained strong around the handle. Karina brought one hand up to her back and gently stroked her lower back up and down, making sure she could atleast try to soothe the pain back deep in her body where it couldn't hurt her nor annoy her in later attacks.

Slowly but surely, Karina would get back upon her feet, using her guitar as support and stood up straight to feel her back and the muscles within it, it wasn't that Karina was already down to her last strength, she was still far from that, it was still that the pain will always delay certain moves and she had to make sure it wouldn't do anything like that for her guitar swings though for the moment.. She didn't attack.

“Damn… that really burned more than I thought.” Seraphim said after throwing the girl, holding up her two palms as she shook them a little. The gloves she had on helped a bit, but she found her palms to now be pulsing with a stinging sensation, like she had just been slapped hard, but that same pain was on her palms right now. It was well worth what she had done though, and Seraphim was even smiling a little at herself, acting like this was almost a sort of game to her for a moment. This was just a foolish guise though, as she simply wanted to frustrate Karina more, knowing the mockery and lighthearted attitude Seraphim had would only make her hate her more. Thatâ€s what she wanted; the more reckless she was, the easier it had been for Seraphim.

After the girl collided into the chain, Seraphim found herself gaining a ping of enjoyment in the wrong kind of way. She enjoyed a fight, sure, but she also felt a tingle run down her spine when she heard that surprisingly soft, almost adorable cry of pain Karina made. Seraphim tried shaking those urges off, knowing all to well she was trying to avoid being that cruel women she once was, but she found Karina to be cute to begin with, and seeing her in pain as she was on her knees brought a little pleasure to Seraphim, as she tried not to think about it. Proving she was once again a better person, she even let Karina get up, giving the girl the time needed to get to her feet, while Seraphim even rubbed her own side some, taking the time to let the pain in her ribs and head to subside, feeling like they were just superficial, and sheâ€d be over it.

Once Karina got up though, Seraphim also took the time to arm herself, hoping she could find a whip or something, but found that the item was far on the other side, outside the ring, so she made note of it for later. Instead, she grabbed the nearest thing she could, which happened to be a pipe, thick and already bent a little, certain it would last a little better than the bat for defense. “Hey, itâ€s a nice guitar, what can I say?” Seraphim said once again in a manner that was a small tease. She normally didnâ€t mock her opponents so much, but she liked using it against Karina, as long as it gave her the advantage. “Now whatâ€s the matter? You were trying to ‘destroy†me earlier, get that spirit back, Iâ€m just getting warmed up.”

Karina glared daggers at Seraphim, her stance immidiatly becoming hostile, just a moment she was resting before those words once again brought out the hatred in her and that target was only becoming Seraphim once again. There was no crowd for her, no Era of Hell, No White Gale no one else but Seraphim now, and her main onbjectives was utterly destroying her right in this ring. Karina clenched her teeth, her hand squeezing the handle of the guitar, as if choking the life out of that while she took a step forward towards Seraphim, her eyes narrowing and her other hand clenching into a tight fist.

" Warmed up..? I will... ANNIHILATE YOU. "

Without a moment's thought about what she was doing she brought her guitar up high and charged straight towards Seraphim, yelling out loudly in pure rage while she held the guitar up like a katana and when she was close she'd try to slam it viciously with all her strength down towards the top of Seraphim's head, clearly giving no thought about how easy this could be avoided or what would happen if that guitar would miss and how hard it would hit the mat, it was simply all about hurting Seraphim now, hurting her, seeing her bleed, seeing her cry. Karina wanted to see it! However the moment she'd lift it up high she did feel a sort of stinging pain, as if a bee was stinging her lower back, it wasn't welcomed but Karina was not going to lose just because of it!

In the midsts of the crowd the cloaked Nha and Sha were talked silently to eachother, though Nha was talking through her cellphone and telling her leaders about the status of the match, which wasn't very good at all..

" ..She's fucking up big time.. All she's trying to do is hit Seraphim and not even caring about the blows she's taking. When do we take action? "

Nha nodded before hiding the phone in her pocket and motioned to her sister to start getting ready, though for now they'd just lurk and see what was going to happen to either of them.

That was the spirit! Hell hath no fury! Seraphim loved it! The eagerness of the oncoming attack, the fear of what would happen if this raging animal hit her, the desire to win and beat her down, the stinging pain from the attacks she received; this was exhilarating! Seeing the flared temper come back to Karina really made Seraphim feel on edge and anxious, awaiting what would be thrown at her next.

And then, after her battle cry, Karina came right at her, holding the guitar high and mighty, ready to slam it into Seraphim. The girl knew a blow like that would be a disaster, probably a one-hit-wonder on nearly any fighter, and so she focused on avoiding it, all of her attention on the guitar. With the bent pipe still in hand, Seraphimâ€s crimson eye widened a little, before she dove to the side, going low and narrowly avoiding the strike. Even now, there was no fear, but instead excitement in the girl, as she watched the guitar crash into the mat while she was off to the side, lying on her stomach for a second after diving away. Seraphim knew she had to get up quick, or roll away, but as she had the pipe still in hand, a smirk came to her when she realized what a perfect advantage she was in. Looking at the girlâ€s thighs, Seraphim casted away any lusty thoughts she had, even if she did find that Karina had a nice set of legs, and gripped the pipe tightly in her fists. Then, with a merciless swing, though a little sloppy since she was on the ground, Seraphim swing the pipe, aiming low just as she was lying there, striking her behind the knees with all the force she could muster, slamming it through the swing of the pipe, hoping to take her down before she could attempt hitting Seraphim with the guitar while she was on the mat.

Karina's guitar slammed hard upon the mat but it still managed to stand strong and not even showing a crack within it's fine material. Karina however was shaking because of the hit, her wrists hursting slightly from the hit with the mat and her legs trembling to stay standing, Karina wanted to lift her guitar back up and look around for Seraphim, since she was no longer infront of her and Karina lost track when her guitar smashed down, it was already too late when she felt something very hard and painfull slamming against the back of her knees, it was enough to topple to beast down onto her knees and then onto her side, clutching the back of one of her knees with her hand, she laid on her side for a while, vulnurable and twitching, her loud panting heard by the fans who were standing closests to the fences near the ring, Karina was in bad shape.

Unless Seraphim was going to keep attacking her, Karina would force herself back onto her feet but she was very slowly and had trouble stretching her knees, still all she could think about was hurting Seraphim more. Ignoring all her own pain, all her agony that was screaming inside of her body, it was nothing to what she was going to do to Seraphim, she even forgot about the ambush that was going to aid her.. Aid.. Like hell she'd ever want anything from the Era of Hell, they took her family and now she's going to take everything from everyone.

Seraphim had to admit, for a moment, she was scared she didnâ€t get out of the way in time, or even far enough. Fear of having her arm broken if she didnâ€t move far enough, or a set of broken ribs if Karina changed up and got a direct hit. But with a clever dodge, and a small bit of luck from angering the girl to this point, Seraphim managed to avoid completely, and now had the perfect hold on her attack, bringing the monster to her knees. She had to admit, that strike actually made Seraphim even hurt just a little, cringing just at the thought of it, as she rolled to the side, and got to her feet, still casually rubbing her forehead from earlier, as she dropped the lead pipe with a clatter.

Seeing the state Karina was in, the way she panted for breath, the occasional twitch, the look of a girl in pain and agony, Seraphim felt a small ping of pleasure run through her, actually shivering slightly as she found the site of the girl adoring to behold. It made her seem less like a beast, and more like this cute young woman that Seraphim was starting to get ideas about. She once again told herself she shouldnâ€t do anything to her, but she decided that maybe, it would be in her best interest to do something. Seraphim would get a bit of joy from it, and it would assure her that she wouldnâ€t get attacked from the guitar. So, as Karina was about to get up, standing to her knees, Seraphim decided to reach down, grabbing the girl by an arm, forcing her to stand despite how much her legs were probably hurting right now. Wanting to make her really feel the pain there, she decided to give Karina a bit of ‘exerciseâ€, putting a hand behind her back for a moment. For just a second, Seraphimâ€s hand slid slowly down the girlâ€s back, almost in a comforting manner, oddly like she was trying to comfort the girl some. But, as her hand rested on her lower back, the other hand still holding the girlâ€s wrist, she would send her through an irish whip, curious if she could even run at all, as she thrusted her hard to the turnbuckles.

Karina was forced back upon her feet by Seraphim, growling weakly at her, gripping her guitar and was about to lift it up to hit her when she felt the hand going down to her back in a slow manner, which was enough to make Karina's eyes widen and her body shivver against Seraphim's for the moment, the feeling was unusual and new to her but it was enough to prevent her from attack, which she should've done when she was whipped to the turnbuckle, stumbling and almost falling onto the mat again but instead she managed to hit the turnbuckle with her chest, crying out softly in pain as she rested against the turnbuckle, panting loudly for air while her legs were starting to tremble and having trouble supporting her weight, her eyelids starting to close as she could feel her body in some serious pain though it's mainly because she just couldn't support her weight any longer..

Karina turned to rest her back against the turnbuckle so she could look at Seraphim with a soft blush on her cheeks, the stroking had definitely confused her and weakened the reason to hurt Seraphim further.. Though she still wanted to hurt her, trying to stand up straight on her trembling legs before Seraphim would close into her and make it even worse. Karina still held tightly upon her precious guitar but still.. She refused to defend herself, she had to press on the attack and keep on fighting, unleash all her anger and hatred at Seraphim but as Karina was sweating from the warmth of her own body, it wasn't going to last long like this without properly defending herself..

As the girl rested weakly against the turnbuckle, Seraphim felt her body fill with the urge to hurt her more. To gain pleasure from her pain, to break her apart, and maybe have some fun with her. But Seraphim told herself again and again that such a person was the old Seraphim, the same one who faded over the course of her matches, and became a better and stronger person. One who was purer, and had an intention to protect the league from cruel fighters like the AFW. Sure, heels were needed, and there would always be fighters who took things too far, and Seraphim understood that, it was what made wrestling exactly what it was. But people like the Era of Hell were different… they took things too far, and she planned to stop them.

However, she had to focus on the here and now, not even aware she was actually fighting a member of that league, and just figuring it was an opponent who she was beating. Watching the movements from her, the way she was letting out small cries of pain and the sweaty, tired mess before her, Seraphim nearly found her hands wandering, before she shook those thoughts away, and looked at Karina with a soft smile at the girl when her crimson eye met Karinaâ€s when she turned around. She found it amusing how the girl had a small blush on her, and as dark and dangerous as she was at first, Seraphim found her to be kind of cute in a way, a slight lust in her that she continued to try shaking away, finding the small blush from the girl to make Seraphim even more curious. “I know you can do better than that.” She beckoned, wanting to see some more fighting spirit in her. “Donâ€t tell me all you have is a bad temper, a guitar, and a cute look on ya.” Seraphim said that last part with a bit of emphasis, just to confuse her further. Sure, she had Megumi, and she would be damned if something happened between them, but there were times Seraphim still had a little fun with another girl or two. But, there was never anything quite like what they had between herself and Megumi, she may play around here or there, but she never got too serious with another girl. Though… she would admit, Seraphim was certainly having some ideas about the girl, and decided to wait and see how she would react, standing in the center of the ring as she faced the kimono wearing wrestler.

Karina brought her guitar down and rested upon it, glaring at her opponent who was smiling at her.. It disgusted her and took it like her opponent was looking down at her, something she would certainly NOT allow. Karina took a single step forward to get in a rushing stance, her legs trembling but it didn't matter to her anymore, it was going to be over soon and she was going to cross every line of her body to try to beat Seraphim down completely, listening to her and brought her guitar up so she would no longer depend on it for helping her stand, yelling back at her, with an angered yet cute voice.

" Who do you think you are! "

Karina immidiatly rushed painfully towards Seraphim but it was hardly noticably, not allowing herself nor Seraphim to take a break any longer, when she was cose enough she'll spin her body around and once again swing her guitar with all her power towards the side of Seraphim's head, having the position and the efect of a baseballer and Karina was obviously stronger then one that such a hit would certainly create a wound on Seraphim if it lands solidly. Karina once again showed no signs of being able to counter nor defend herself after such a hit and with all her strength and balance within the swing, would she miss Seraphim she would definitally start spinning around and fall flat on her rear infront of Seraphim.
