Karina, Raiye and Serizawa Vs. Team Eclipse

Even with her dropkick blocked Chigusa was satisfied, since it dealt quite a bit of damage anyways. Serizawa was going to be feeling the pain on her arms later on. As she was getting up though, Serizawa struck back. The sweep kick knocked Chigusa's unsteady legs out from underneath her, making her fall onto her bum. She moved quickly, rolling to the side out of the way, while getting up to her feet in one smooth move.

Serizawa stood back up straight and back into her stance, waiting for the girl to get back up and stand ready, the smirk on her own lips never fading away. She was really going to enjoy this match and decided she had to attack. She suddenly ran straight towards Chigusa and extended her arm when she was close enough, trying to clothesline the girl back onto the ground.

Chigusa saw Serizawa running at her, arm stretched out ready to clothesline her back onto the mat. She wasn't going to let Serizawa land such a big hit on her this early in the match, while she was still fresh. Chigusa ducked underneath Serizawa's clothesline, quickly rolling forwards out of the way. She ended up right behind Serizawa.

"Take this!" Chigusa shouted, springing straight up at Serizawa and attempting to tackle her from behind in her lower back.

Serizawa tried to turn in time when she missed, wanting to keep her eyes on CHigusa but instead she was tackled onto her stomach, her arms and legs sprawled out for a second or two before she realizes she was on the mat, big problem for Serizawa since she was very inexperienced with ground work, quickly trying to struggle as hard as she could to get Chigusa off her. " Oh no you won't! "

Chigusa wasn't particularly skilled with grappling on the ground either, so when Serizawa began to struggle beneath her, she quickly let go and rolled away, trying to get onto her feet before the fierce blonde could. Despite the fact that she held the initiative so far with her speedy attacks, Chigusa wondered if they were even having any affect on her opponent. Serizawa didn't even seem to be fazed by the moves she's taken.

Chigusa was quickly on her feet, settling into a defensive stance. No doubt Serizawa would be up too at this point, if not already attacking.

Serizawa got up a little slowly, when she applied alot of weight on her arms she could feel them ache, blinking a few times, she should've been more careful, looking over at Chigusa and grinned at her. " Not bad! " She then rushed over towards her again, extending an arm to make it look like she was going for a clothesline but when she was but a few steps away from the girl, she ducked low and jumped, trying to spear her to the ground instead.

Chigusa wasn't about to be a sitting duck for Serizawa to attack. She saw the girl charging at her, deciding to hold her ground. It seemed as if Serizawa was going for a clothesline again, so Chigusa decided to try and duck under like before. But then, Serizawa surprised her when she sprang forward and tackled Chigusa hard in the gut.

"Guh!" Chigusa grunted, it certainly caught her off guard. She got smashed onto the mat on her back with Serizawa on top.

Serizawa finally got a good hit on Chigusa, looking down at her while she thought of how to attack her next though Karina's shouting got in her way " Beat her face in! " She said, though Serizawa was not that kind of person, slowly lifting herself back up and tried to force Chigusa to stand up aswell, if she was able to do so she'll immidiatly try to wrap her arms around Chigusa's body and go for a tight bearhug.

Chigusa grunted when Serizawa began pulling her up, still a bit too stunned to immediately respond. "Chigusa!" Megumi yelled from the corner, "Watch out!" That and the bearhug Serizawa put her in certainly woke her up. "AH!" Chigusa gasped when Serizawa began to squeeze down on her thin waist, crushing the air out of her body. Chigusa pushed and struggled, trying to force her way out of the hold.

She decided on a counterattack that was a bit unorthodox. Grabbing Serizawa's hair on the sides of her head (the two tufts that look like a fox's ears), she pulled Serizawa in for a powerful headbutt, hoping that it would stun her enough to let go.

Serizawa put on a tight squeeze, really trying to wear the girl down as much as she could. " Whatcha think huh?! I'm not really good with submissions but I suppose this one is simple! " Serizawa squeezed rhytmatically though she blinked when the long points of her hair were each grasped, looking straight up at Chigusa and then recieving the powerfull headutt, making Serizawa gasp out and release Chigusa, immidiatly bringing her hands to her face while she backed away.
