Antonina vs Chigusa

Because of all the effort put into concentrating in the fight, Antonina didn't think that maybe Chigusa was trying to be friendly. She already knew that this wrestling federation wasn't of the cleanest sort, and since her first match her suspicions had been strenghened. It was simply safer not to trust anyone at a first glance, other fighters included.

But she wasn't going to dwell in meaningless thoughts anymore. She had Chigusa trapped in the corner, and was going to use that opportunity to find out her fighting style. Not wasting any time, Antonina sent a hard knee directly at Chigusa's midsection, wanting to check whether the idol would be able to counter that.

Antonina was too close now, too close for Chigusa to effectively block any incoming attack. "Guh!" Chigusa grunted when Antonina's knee slammed into her gut. She bent over slightly from the blow, gasping to try and get her air back. This is why she disliked lockups- it's not her style.

Still, she had to fight her way out before Antonina did any real damage. So she raised both her hands, and swung them inwards at Antonina's head, aiming to clap her on the temples and stun her long enough to break free.

As Chigusa didn't counterattack right after the knee strike, Antonina spent one second to analyze how she had taken the hit. She was only a bit winded, so she wasn't a total amateur, at least. Maybe it would be good to keep close contact with -

*whack*

Chigusa's hands moved rapidly, both smacking the sides of Antonina's head at once. The sudden attack had taken her by surprise, and she gave one step back shaking her head. Chigusa was quick. However, after a moment, Antonina had already shaken away the initial shock. By then, Chigusa was already moving away from the corner. Trying to stop her, Antonina kicked at Chigusa's passing leg. If she was lucky enough to hit her knee, maybe Chigusa would fall down, but if she missed the kick entirely, she would be momentarily defenseless.

As Antonina seemed momentarily stunned by the counterattack, Chigusa took her chance to slip away. But her opponent recovered faster than she thought. Antonina's kick caught Chigusa's ankle and tripped her, making her fall clumsily onto the mat, her butt poking into the air and her white panties exposed.

"Ohh..." Chigusa moaned as she got up, smoothing her skirt out behind her. It had happened so many times already that she was used to it. If Antonina doesn't interefere, Chigusa would get up. but that wasn't likely to happen.

Antonina nodded to herself in silent approval as her blow struck true. She turned to face Chigusa, ready to continue fighting whether she had fallen or not; it was the revealing, white vision that made her stop her attack for a moment. The panties themselves weren't embarassing to see - she cared little about that - but Chigusa was down in such a clumsy, yet appealing way that it made her think. "Better not to strike her while she's down. She's way too vulnerable like this."

Of course, this didn't mean that she wouldn't take advantage of the opportunity, but in another way. Antonina moved around her opponent while she got up; then, she swooped down on her precisely when she was on one knee. Crouching behind Chigusa, the Russian swiftly put her on a full nelson; because of their low position, Chigusa shouldn't be able to kick about so much.

Chigusa knew how vulnerable her position was, which was why she tried to get up as quickly as she could. She couldn't give Antonina such a big advantage so early on. But she wasn't fast enough. Antonina managed to get behind her and put her in the full nelson before she even knew that was going on. Chigusa grunted in surprise as Antonina cranked her arms behind her back.

Chigusa couldn't let Antonina lock in the hold tightly. She would struggle hard, twisting left and right, seeing if Antonina would let her go.

Antonina concentrated solely on keeping the recently-locked submission hold on. For every motion that Chigusa made, Antonina responded with an opposing torque, so that Chigusa couldn't build up enough strength to escape. It didn't matter how fiercely Chigusa thrashed; she would keep latched on to her, as a bulldog biting an unlucky intruder.

Antonina didn't play around when it came to fighting; so, at every second, her grip got a bit tighter as she tried to push Chigusa's head down further.

Chigusa found her struggles countered at every turn, and herself getting increasingly trapped in the submission. Antonina wasn't holding back either, cranking Chigusa's neck and shoulders painfully. Chigusa knew that she didn't have long before the hold started weakening her beyond the point of recovery. So she needed to counter.

Chigusa leapt backwards, pushing all her strength and force into Antonina. She was going to drive the both of them into the ropes, and hopefully break the hold with the shock!

Although Antonina held Chigusa's arms tightly, she had no control over her torso or legs, and therefore could not stop Chigusa's jump when it suddenly came. As both of them were forced backwards, though, the Russian was able to spin around on one foot; she had Chigusa's weight with her as well, so a half-turn was impossible, but what she managed was enough to avoid getting trapped between the ropes and Chigusa's body.

In the end, the two had the ropes driven into the sides of their bodies. As Chigusa had touched the ropes, it was technically a break, so Antonina let go of her and stepped back, nursing the sore spot on her side. "Not bad..."

Even though Chigusa managed tog et out of the hold, she had still been hurt in the process. The ropes slammed into her side painfully, knocking the air out of her for a second. Chigusa grabbed onto the ropes as Antonina let go, holding onto them to keep her standing.

"Thanks... I guess," Chigusa muttered. She got up off the ropes and settled into an attacking position. She quickly gaged the distance between her and Antonina, and decided now was the time. She ran forwards a few steps to build up momentum, and would attempt to dropkick Antonina in the chest.
