Kurai vs Rowan (PM Match/Complete)

Submission Match
All hits allowed, but victory through submission

Splendid:
Rowan had done some prep work for this one. Standing in the wings waiting for his pyro to go off, he ran through his mental checklist on the new girl. Liked to throw down, apparently. Better not try to square off. Pretty, which he wished he hadn't noticed. Sure didn't make things any easier. Hitting a bonnie lass was one part of the whole AFW thing he wasn't entirely acclimatized to yet. Not that he hadn't done it in a match or two, but it always made him a touch queasy afterwards.

Finally the music hit. Rowan released his breath, limbering up his arms while he walked out onto the ramp; the familiar blast of smoke and blue-white-red light casting the image of the Union Jack on the wall behind him. His manager had told him to make the most of his british heritage, and so he had. Still, he'd always felt this part was a little over the top.

He made his way down to the ring, pausing now and then to adress a fan. He was still a new face in the federation, but cheeringly enough there were a few paper signs with his name on them around. Did a lot for a man's confidence. Finally he bounced up onto the canvas, springing nimbly over the top rope and turning around, waiting for his opponent.

InSaNiTyKurai:
Kurai checked herself in the locker, barely containing her jubilation, it was time for her first match up at AFW. But her brow furrowed when she remembered it was against a guy. The manager for Tension had grabbed her in his quick panic to find someone on the last minute for this match. She almost felt bad, he had no idea of what she was willing to do, regardless, she heard "Indestructable by Distrubed" play through and she made her way out to the ring.

The crowd whistled when they saw the newcomer, and she felt a blush creep up her face, but she tried to stay focused. She saw her opponent standing in his corner, waiting. She slipped into the ring and glared at him, "I really hope you're a better opponent then the last male idiot to fight me." She set herself in a neutral stance, prepared for anything as she waited for the bell.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Well, she sure was rude. File hadn't said anything about that. "I'll do my best," he said, keeping his voice light and largely conversational. He wasn't entirely sure what he'd done to deserve her being such a crank about it, but some people were just like that.

The referee went over the rules real fast, and once told to move closer Rowan stepped away from his corner, taking a few hop-steps to get his legs under him. "Alright, lady. Let's do this." The bell rang, and Rowan was immediately off to the races, sprinting towards her with a clothesline.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
After hearing the referee go over the rules, Kurai shook her shoulders, keeping her head in the game. Then her opponent charged forward attempting to catch her with a clothesline. Kurai was surprised by the sudden charge and she grunted "Gahh..." as she was dropped to the mat, but she immediately sent a kick to the back of his knee as she rolled up, hoping he wouldnt capitalize on her moment of failure.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He got her flush; his arm catching her across the chest and taking her to the ground. She was a nimble thing, though, and before Rowan had completely gotten out of her range he felt a foot catching him in the back of the knee. It wasn't really painful, but hit from the awkward angle his knee buckled, making him stumble forward onto one knee on the canvas, grunting slightly.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She smiled a bit as she felt the kick connect, one piece in a very large puzzle of how to break this guy completed. She jumped at him, trying to capitalize, with a powerful kick to the jaw, she didnt want to take any chances, as his speed had caught her off-guard once. If the kick failed, she would drop back into her original stance, unless obstructed somehow.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He managed to bring his arms up, getting something between his face and her foot, but the force of the kick still sent him stumbling backwards from his kneeling position. Well, he knew she licked to strike, this ought to not be a surprise. Time to test how smart she is about it. Rowan wasn't a practiced boxer or anything, but he had a good poker face. Springing towards her, he feinted a punch towards her face, instead throwing a side kick against her outer thigh.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Her slow smile widened as the kick hit him, even if it wasn't full on, it felt great. But it dropped as he launched himself again. Again with that speed... she thought as he looked to hit her in the face, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw his leg move, and she smirked. She hit his leg up underneath his calf, stopping the kick, then pushed it out forcing it to arc uselessly, usually she would go for the Circle of Doom, but she wasnt ready to finish this, so she settled for a kick to the chest.

If that connected she would follow through with a barrage of punches to his ribs.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
The push kick connected with his chest, making him stumble back slightly and lose his forward momentum. She was on him like a rash after that, and Rowan had to spend his time trying to block her punches aimed at his midsection. His forearms caught the brunt of the assault, but a few of them got through, driving little sounds of discomfort on his lips.

Not much time to attack, now. He had to hold her off.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Kurai pouted slightly as he blocked most of her punches, she wanted this to be fun for her. She figured he just needed some more pain, so she jumped up and aimed a dropkick at his neck, hoping to bring him to the mat.

If this succeeded she would sit on his back, straddling him as she tried to pull his arms over her knees in preparations for a Camel Clutch.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He managed to get an arm up against the dropkick, but a wrist was little against the sheer thrust of both her legs. He was sent sprawling to the canvas, a little winded after her punches and startled by the power of her dropkick. As he felt her plant her butt down on the small of his back he tried instinctively to get away, but he wasn't fast or coordinated enough in a ground war, and soon his arms were being pulled back up above her knees, resting across her thighs.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Her smile was in full bloom now, the dropkick had been a hit, not a perfect hit, but a hit all the same. He offered resistance as she pulled his arms, but it looked like the ground wasnt his specialty. Making a mental note of that, she grabbed his chin, and wrenched back, her arms not quite as powerful as her legs, but hopefully enough to lock in the Camel Clutch. If he was able to stop it, she would push down on his head and leap as she attempted to knee him in the back to make him less resistant.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He pushed back against her, grunting as he did, using his back and legs to offer what resistance he could. It went well, to a point, but when her knee slammed into his back he ended up flat on his front, her legs back atop him, the girl straddling him as he lay out of breath on the canvas.
_______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
While he was able to break the initial hold, Kurai had already been in motion, and the knee drop had worked perfectly, now she pulled back on his chin begining the Camel Clutch. "This is disappointing, cant you give me a better fight?" She would mockingly pout. Kurai wanted to see what would break first, his body, from the hold, or his will from the humiliation.
_______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He was in trouble. The thought occurred to him a scant second before her hands around his chin began to yank back, and the strain shot through his neck and back like a thunderbolt. "Gnh!" he grunted, his arms scrambling across her thighs. "D-damnit!" He wasn't an experienced grappler, and he was struggling to find a way to get her off of him.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She knew she was in control right now, with his grunts of pain, and Kurai pulled back some more, hoping to get a better reaction, but then she felt his struggling hands move up her skirt and she blushed furiously "Where do you think your putting that hand?!" she yelled as she pulled her hands away from his neck to get his hand away from her. Inexperience seriously showing, she actually removed both hands for this task.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Sometimes you just caught a break. Rowan felt the tension ease around his neck, and when he realised her arms had left his neck he bucked back hard, using both hands to grab one of her legs and try to shove her off of him. He knew he would be at a serious disadvantage on the ground, and though the camel clutch was off she was still on top of him.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Having successfully pried off the man's hand, she went back to reapply the Camel Clutch but all of a sudden, she could only she the turnbuckle behind her as she was bucked off of him. Luckily enough for her opponent, she landed on her head, giving him either time to recover or capitalize as she sat there, dazed.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He felt her fall off, and he bounced back onto his feet in a matter of breaths, standing crouched with her behind him. She wasn't making any further moves against him, and he tried to bring his foot around in a circle kick, spinning half a full circuit aimed at where her head ought to be. His back still wasn't entirely in it, though, and his aim was thrown off, his foot instead coming towards her shoulder.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
As Kurai's vision cleared, the first thing she saw was akick coming straight at her. It landed on her shoulder as she tried to get up "Ungh" she grunted as it pushed her back down. She would try to roll off to the side to give herself time for the drop to her head to stop throbbing.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Okay. Good. That was something. He pushed himself away, not trusting his back entirely yet, and he moved back up onto his feet. He felt a bit sore after being stuck in her submission maneuver, but it was better than being on the ground. He took a deep breath, re-focusing.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Kurai sighed with a bit of relief, as her opponent backed off to recover as well. Getting to her feet, she lost no time in attempting to mount an offensive, launching a punch to his chest. If that failed she would attempt to drop into a defensive stance. She did not like where this match was going, she knew in a battle of indurance, she would probably lose.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Her punch was a little too predictable, and he sucked in his breath as he followed her forward momentum. It was time for something a little riskier; bit more of a crowd-pleaser. He moved back, and in only one or two long steps his back was against the ropes, pressing back and using the slingshot-like spring to launch himself forward, leaping into the air and trying to grab onto her head for a Tornado DDT.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Kurai had been in plenty of fights before, but not with anyone like this guy. He dealt with her punch with ease, then he used the rope to get her with a Tornado DDT. Having never seen the move before, there was no way Kurai could fight it.

"Aggh!" She yelled as she went face first into the mat. Completely stunned, she lay there trying to catch her breath.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
That's what you got for fighting flashy. Sometimes the practical option was the expected option. People just didn't predict you going into the air and spinning around in a wrestling match. Her head hit the mat with a very satisfying thud, and though a little disoriented Rowan managed to roll back onto his feet. He kept his momentum as best as he could, turning rapidly into another run. He hopped, planting his feet against the middle rope, and when it came rebounding back he launched, catching air and turning it into a long moonsault back towards her. A full body press.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Panting, Kurai tried to get up, only to find a huge weight come crashing down on her. The full body press crushed her body inbetween his and the ring. "Ahhh!" she screamed in earnest now, the press hurting her. She would try to push up with her arms in hopes to get him off of her.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Another clean hit. This wasn't so bad after all. He was a little surprised when she immediately began to struggle, and in what might've been a hasty decision he tried to grab onto one of her arms, trying to position himself for an armbar. He was a little awkward in his way around a submission hold, and he knew that, but on the other hand she wasn't in the best of conditions at the moment.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Her struggles were rewarded with him trying to lock in an armbar, but at last Kurai had a moment to counter; his setup was slow, and she yanked her arm out of it as she rolled to the side, hopping into her stance, anger flush in her face that her opponent had been able to catch her for that long. She would attempt to fake a punch to his face, but she would go for a kick to the chest, followed by a flip into a stomp on his legs. She was determined to get back in this.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
She slipped out of his attempt at a submission, and while a curse was still forming on his lips she reared back for a punch at his nose. He brought his arms up, and when she changed it into a kick he was ill prepared. It blew the breath out of his chest, his curse dying halfway. She was a pretty gal, but a ruthless one. Then her heel hit his leg, and he cried out as he pulled his leg up, drawing the injured limb closer reflexively.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She saw him pull his leg into his body, but no smile this time, she was done playing with him. While he pulled his leg in, She would aim two swift kicks at his head, hoping to disorientate her dangerous opponent.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
First one didn't work, but the second one sure did. Rowan brought his arm up to cover one direction, but from the other her kick hit him flush, striking his temple and sending him into a state of momentary dizziness, trying to find his bearings on the ground, temporarily out of it.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
The dangerous smile crept up again now, as she attempted to sit ontop of him and nail him with punch after punch. She wanted to make sure that he would not be causing anymore problems before the real show got started.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Most of the punches hit. He raised his arms to try to get some of them off, and one or two hit the canvas to his side, but repeated impacts to his cheeks and jaw were beginning to dizzy him, his resistance weakening a little bit.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
Good. She felt the punches connect, and she intended to make in pay for the earlier attacks. She would switch it up now, pulling her dazed opponent to the turnbuckle, where she would attempt to brace herself on the middle rope and arc back off the floor, kneeing him in the chest repeatedly
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
The grin was disconcerting. She seemed to be having just a little too much fun with this. Regardless of Rowan's feelings, though, he was in no condition to stop her. Her knee rammed into his chest repeatedly, his breath being methodically blasted out of his chest before he slumped back, grabbing onto the top ropes.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
"There we goo~" Kurai purred, finally having the reaction she was looking for. She let him slump back before delivering a deadly hook kick to his head. If it connected, she would not let him fall off of the turnbuckle, she would hoist him back up and rinse and repeat twice more.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Good cardio on the girl. She had lovely legs, though Rowan was a bit less appreciative of the aesthetics of what was going on when her foot hit the side of his head, blowing it to the side. Then he was pushed back up for round two, and round three, making him stumble to the side, slumping down face down on the canvas.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
As he slumped to the side, she cocked her head to the side, and said mocikingly "Aww, is the little boy out of juice?" Not waiting for a response, she would push off the ropes attempt to elbow him in his lower back, attempt to bring the match to a close very soon.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
He grunted at her mocking, but as her elbow hit his back he had bigger worries than trying to shrug off some taunts. Her elbow was sharp as all hell, and he groaned in pain as it struck him in the small of his back. Rowan was in bad, bad shape.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She felt her elbow land prefectly, and now she was ready. Hopefully for the last time, she would pull Rowan up, and strike him twice: in the solar plexus with her left, in his temple with her right, and she would begin to sweep his feet from under him. If all went well, she would kick him in the head as he was falling, turning the boys ankle so she could begin a Boston Crab. "Bow to Buddha!" she would yell as she executed a new variation on her finisher.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
It was an impressive sequence of attacks. Rowan was in trouble from when the first hit connected, and when she finally spun him around and twisted down into a Boston Crab he only realised what was happening when he felt her - albeit lovely - rear plant down against the small of his back and his legs being pulled back up under her armpits. "Nnnngggghhhh!" he groaned, his arms grasping at the canvas.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She purred in satisfaction once more as her move connected. Kurai grabbed his legs, and locked them in so she should begin the Boston Crab, ignoring his flailing arms she pulled. "Are you ready to surrender little boy?~" she asked politely as she pull harder and harder on his legs.
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
"Aughhnh!" he groaned, trying to crawl towards the ropes with little to no success. His fingers clenched, and he squeezed his eyes shut as he was doing his best to get to the ropes. "Fuck!" This wasn't going well. He was in real trouble here.
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
"Hmph" Kurai pouted. This guy was being way more stubborn than she liked, but he was still locked in tight in the hold. Kurai smirked as she began to lower her rear towards his back, increasing the the pressure as Rowan is bent into a U-Shape
______________________________________________________

Splendid:
Okay, that was that. As she leaned back further he finally tapped out; rapping his hands against her leg as she sat atop him, his back slowly being twisted into a painful U shape. "Okay... f-...! I give!"
______________________________________________________

InSaNiTyKurai:
She lets go of Rowan at the feeling of his tapping, and she drops onto her butt as she begins to pant, the satisfaction wearing off and the fatigue kicking in. She turns towards her opponent "That...wasn't too...bad...for a guy." Kurai panted begrudgingly. She stands up and looks him in the eye before resting herself against the rope. The crowd cheered in the finale, and they clapped for both sides for giving them a good fight.
