[Pendant Match] Tables: Adrian Kytes Vs. Raiye Amikura

Fortunately for Raiye's desire to actually have a fight, the cosplayer was just playing dead after that punch in order to get her breath back and when the Phoenix grabbed Adrian by the hair to pull her up, she took the opportunity to grab Raiye's head and jump down to her knees, trying to rattle her opponent with a quick jawbreaker. No that was definitely not it, but if she wanted to underestimate how stubborn Adrian could be in a fight, then she was totally free to do that, 'cause that'd be great.

Raiye was certainy that Adrian was pretty much out of it after that punch, the girl didn't seem like she could last against a powerhouse like Raiye. However, Adrian once again surprised her when she was suddenly pulled down instead of forcing Adrian up, brought down upon upon Adrian's hard head chin first, it actually forced Raiye to fall and onto her side before she quickly rolled away from Adrian and onto one knee, glaring over at Adrian and rubbed her jaw softly. " Tch, this is getting annoying. "

Adrian let out a pained smile as her jaw breaker took Raiye down, the top of her head stung a bit but compared to the Phoenix, the cosplayer was in a much better position and set to take advantage. Springing back onto her feet she took a running step and launched herself forward, trying to strike the brawler with a running knee attack.

Raiye glared over at Adrian, who came running towards her, she waited until she was sure she knew in what way Adrian would attack her before she jumped forward, allowing Adrian's knee to attack her chest rather then her face as the phoenix rose up, taking a hold of Adrian's body as she tried to spear Adrian in the chest to send her down onto the mat again.

"Ha-ARGH!" Adrian let out as her knee to a kneeling opponent's head became a knee to a charging opponent's chest. And that wasn't going to be enough to stop either person's momentum. With the cosplayer shooting up as well as forward, she took the Phoenix's shoulder just below her tiny breasts and rolled over the top, gasping for breath on the mat as she felt like she had just gone through a tornado or something.

Managed to take Adrian down with her to the mat with Raiye even getting ontop of Adrian, it was time to teach this girl a lesson in respect. She took a hold of Adrian's arm and swung herself around to lay across of Adrian and try to pull Adrian's arm into an armbar where she could start punishing the cosplayer for even remotely thinking of fighting back against the phoenix.

"Ughhh..." Adrian groaned as she lay on the mat, that spear had hurt a lot while her knee had done practically nothing. Now the phoenix was trying to put some real hurt on the cosplayer, who grabbed her own arms to try and stop Raiye stretching her out in an armbar. With no rope breaks, submissions or even knock-outs there was nothing to stop her from just breaking Adrian's arm outright so she tried to hold on for dear life until the white haired brawler got bored and tried something else.

And boredom did struck Raiye when it seemed that Adrian wasn't going to get free from this submission hold, releasing her arm and getting back upon her feet. Maybe she overestimated Adrian's capabilities to face her yet it didn't really matter to her, she was going to defeat this girl and claim the money presented to her. She leaned back down to take a hold of Adrian's hair and force her back onto her feet. She would then switch her grasp to Adrian's throat to try and lift her up by it and then slam her down onto her back again in a chokeslam.

"Owww..." Adrian groaned, even though she'd tried her best to stop getting stretched out her arm was aching after that, and Raiye wasn't by any means done with the cosplayer. Pulling her back up to her feet the cosplayer staggered a bit before the Phoenix's hand wrapped around her throat. "Akkkk!" Adrian choked out as she tried to hold on to her own sanity while she was lifted up by one hand.

Scrambling for a way out, she swung her whole body around while trying to jab her thumbs in the side of Raiye's wrists to get her to release the choke mid-air and send the cosplayer twirling out behind her, landing on her feet before rolling to the outside and putting as much distance between herself and the Phoenix. How am I supposed to make a dent in her... she thought to herself, bent over to catch her breath, telling Lukretia to "Shut up." preemptively while she looked around. Raiye was an order of magnitude stronger than her, but strength had it's limits, even Rebecca had hers and she could take the hardest uppercuts from champions without moving back. Grabbing a pipe from under the ring and trying to hide it from view, she waited to see what Raiye did in response.

Raiye couldn't complete the chokeslam when Adrian jabbed against the side of her wrist, which caused the Phoenix to release her prey and allow her to escape the ring. Raiye rubbed her wrists while keepin an eye on Adrian, a displeased look on her face that could only be satisfied with Adrian's defeat. So far the cosplayer had managed to worm her way out of the devastating attacks that Raiye wanted to do and she was not happy with it. She watched as it seemed that Adrian was looking for something under the ring, which made the the Phoenix remain in a passive stance, deciding not to get out of the ring to follow Adrian when the tables were inside, she knew she would win if Adrian was going to chicken out.
