Makie vs Makoto - Makie's big match.

Makie would be able to get her in this hold. Makoto growled angrily.

"Let me go!"

"No way," Makie hissed, leaning back to add more pressure to the stranglehold. An angry, determined look was on her face as she kept a tight grip on Makoto's arms, keeping the stranglehold locked for all it was worth.

Then, abruptly, she released Makoto. Stepping back, she jumped up, aiming to nail her in the back with a drop-kick before rolling away.

Makoto barely had time to react before she was dropkicked in the back. She cried out and rolled onto her side.

As Makoto rolled sideways, Makie sprang back to her feet and followed her. Grabbing the other girl by the arm, she hoisted her up, moving to squeeze her head against her side in a headlock, while using her free arm to grab the back of one gi-clad thigh, setting her up for a suplex.

Makoto was a little furious that this upstart was giving her such a fight. Makoto would desperately try to fight back one last time. She attempted to bring her forearm up and back as she was pulled up for the headlock and try to strike Makie in the faae to rattle her.

If this worked she would back up into her as if jostling her but the duck down to grab at the ankle of the leg she worked on earlier planning to roll Makie down onto the ground on her back in a rolling leglock ending in a knee bar hold.

Makie was taken by surprise as Makoto suddenly struck her in the face. "AUGH!" she cried, releasing Makoto and staggering back. The next thing she knew, she was tripped onto her back, leaving her vulnerable and unable to defend herself as Makoto locked in a knee bar. "D...dammit," Makie cursed, trying to kick out at Makoto with her free leg.

Makoto started to hug makie's leg close to her to set her hamstrings on fire but then makie was able to kick herself free.

Breathing heavily, Makie rolled away from Makoto, trying to roll back up to her feet as she clutched her hurting leg.

Makoto pushed herself up slowly.

Slowly, Makie staggered to her feet as well, wincing as she put some weight on her hurting leg. Glaring at Makoto, Makie kept her distance, waiting to see what the judoka would do.
