AV 13 Heroic Battle in the Falling Leaves: Tatsuki Vs. Aoi

Tatsuki remained focused and silent as she circled Aoi while keeping her eyes on and waited for her to come at her, biding her time until the right moment to counter the blue head with the perfect timing. She practically held out her right arm out more then the other as if to encourage her opponent into going for it to try and Irish Whip the young athlete, and to Tatsuki's amazement, Aoi went and grabbed her wrist. The athlete smiles as she begins her counter.

In a mere instant after Aoi grabbed her wrist, Tatsuki grabbed her opponent's arm with her left hand and then spun to her left while holding onto Aoi's arm to fall and slam her onto her front into the canvas while on the side of the girl and still keeping a grip on the blue head's arm. In this position, Tatsuki will start to pull back on Aoi's arm to stretch it, applying the Fujiwara Armbar submission armlock on the girl. "You completely fell for it, Aoi-san."

Aoi was about to grab Tatsuki's wrist but once she did she came to regret it as she was force down on the mat and her left are was jerked up "Ahh let go!" Aoi cried out as shed did her best to endure the pain and not tap out just yet. "ughh dam it" Aoi said trying to think of a way to out of the submission move which prove to be very difficult, in an attempt to get out Aoi tried putting her legs under her belly and her free arm as well. Seeing that Tatsuki was laying on her side Aoi would try to roll over.

Pushing her body to her right side hoping to use leverage and be on her side, where the blue headed girl would try grabbing TAtsukis body and push her on her back placing her in a pin "bet you didnt see this coming Tatsuki-chan" Aoi said closing one eye hoping that she could get her arm free in the process once the Ref started counting

"one!"

Tatsuki had a good grip on Aoi's arm as she pulled on it, she did her best to hold down the blue head onto the mat by her shoulder while pushing her down against the mat as she pulls. This is a very effective armlock for stretching arms back, but the main problem is keeping your opponent pinned down and with the athlete's small body it's easy for some of her opponents, particularly ones much bigger then herself, to easily crawl to the ropes as if Tatsuki was a heavy backpack loaded with school books. "I can't let you go, that would be too nice of me to do in a match." She said to Aoi who demanded Tatsuki to let go as she groans and moans in pain from the hold.

Soon the athlete begins to feel motion as her opponent is sliding her legs underneath her chest to get on her knees with Tatsuki being hoisted up slightly in the process. To try and keep her leverage on Aoi's arm, Tatsuki puts her left foot onto the ground to slightly hoist herself more to have more control of the blue head here. But she loses her balance as Aoi rolls over to the right on her side, Tatsuki slips and falls back on her chest but is then moved on her left side facing Aoi who then grabs the girl with her free arm and pushed herself on top of Tatsuki, pinning her diagonally which surprises her as she releases Aoi's arm.

"Two!"

The young athlete soon snaps out of it once she hears the ref-girl make the second count, and Tatsuki begins to squirm her body around from underneath Aoi like a fish in a fishing net to try and break the pin and get her opponent off of her. "Get. Off!" She cried out as she squirmed but her shoulders remained on the canvas, but with her thrashing, Aoi should be losing her grip on the athlete. So Tatsuki will try and slide her arms under Aoi and in front of her and then try her best to push the blue head off of her while leaning to the left to send her away from her before rolling onto her front as Tatsuki slowly get back up on one knee.

Being free of the painful armbar Aoi was glad but was more glad that she had a pin on Tatsuki, and apon hearing the two count Aoi smiled softly but just then she felt Tatsuki trashing about in her arms "hey stop moving!"Aoi said. To much of her struggles to keep the fiction girl pin Aoi was unable to keep her pin and rolled over to right side once the Tatsuki broke out of the pin

looking at the ref who said it was just a two count got Aoi abit frustrated as she was slow close to winning but she sighed softly " dam so close huh Tatsuki"Aoi said getting to her feet slowly and looked her foe breathing abit heavily Aoi tried to think of what she could do to weaken Tatsuki

Tatsuki sighed in relief as she was able to get Aoi off of her, if she had wasted another second in that pin then she would have lost. **That was too close.** As the athlete makes it back onto her feet, her expression shows that she is very serious right now. Aoi may be a Kawaii, but she is still a very tough customer with a goal to become Kawaii Champion so Tatsuki cannot really fool around here with her. "Heh!" With a sudden smirk of a grin and fierce determination in the girl's eyes, Tatsuki begins to take off the gauntlet on her right arm and then her short sleeved jacket.

"Playtime is over Aoi-san!" The athlete says as she lastly removes the hairband from her head. For Tatsuki has entered her all serious mode, she walks over to the ref-girl and hands her the things she took off and gets back into her stance which is more solid and focused now but still has an expression of seriousness with excitement and competitiveness.

To start off her first tactic in this mode, the athlete will dash at Aoi very quickly then once she got close Tatsuki will do another feint, she will dash to the right for a second to throw off Aoi and then back to the left to get around her. Tatsuki will then jump up to land on her feet onto the top rope behind her blue head opponent, feeling the need to finally do her forte style of fighting, kicks off and launches herself off of the rope backwards in the hopes to slam on Aoi with a Moonsault.

Aoi got into her stance as well watching Tatsuki as she took off her gear and hearing her words Aoi would smile softly " yeah i guess your right Tatsuki-chan!"Aoi said Befor she saw Tatsuki rush at her almost surprise by the athletes tatic, deep down though Aoi knew Tatsuki had an other plan but she couldn't tell what it was. In no time Aoi found Tatsuki was right on top of her as she fell for her faint Aoi was about to intercept but seeing the athlete had turned back to the left catching Aoi off guard. what happened next Aoi didn't see coming at all as she found Tatsuki flying at her in a moonsault landing on top of Aoi "ughh damn"Aoi groaned hitting the mat hard.

"nnghhh " Aoi groaned as she felt Tatsuki on top of her she was still dazed but not enough to let the athlete bulldoze over her and would wrap her arms and legs around Tatsuki

Tatsuki was able to catch Aoi off guard with her double feint to throw her off and was able to sneak around her to jump off from the ropes to Moonsault the girl. The athlete was grinning real widely from doing an Aerial Strike finally, especially if it was the Moonsault which was one of Tatsuki's favorite Aerial Strikes and planned to perform another one as soon as she got up.

While trying to get up from on top of Aoi, she feels her waist being wrapped by her opponents arms. "Wha-hey!" And by instinct, the athlete knew that the legs were coming as well. Once they came up to try and wrap Tatsuki's upper body, she quickly grabs them then holds onto them tightly. "Not bad, but let go of me!" To try and reverse this against Aoi and free herself, Tatsuki will try to roll over so the blue head is on top and then try to push herself forward to try and bend Aoi's legs backwards in a Boston Crab manor. "How's this Aoi-san?"

Aoi held on tightly to Tatsuki knowing that she needed to ware her down more but Aoi didn't expect the athlete to roll them over and try sitting up as she held onto the blue headed girls legs " ugh no im not going to let go!" Aoi yelld but soon she felt her lower back bend in a boston crab manor " Ugh n-not bad" Aoi cried and squirmed in the hold as she slammed her fist onto the mat " L-let go of me!" Aoi said doing all she can to be strong and not tap out, reaching for the ropes thinking she couldn't find a way to break out of the hold .

As Aoi crawled she was starting to lose her strength to keep going she went threw a bit but she was against someone in fiction reaching for the rope again Aoi hoped that she could grab it and think of a way to get back into the match

Despite pushing down on Aoi's legs like a Boston Crab who refused to let her go of the athlete's body, the blue head just refused to give up which is commendable but for how long? Tatsuki kept bending them down to include the pain and pressure on her opponent to try and force her to say uncle. Soon enough Aoi did let go of the athlete's body but still refused, since she let go Tatsuki can release her herself, but with this being a slightly effective hold she thought she can hold onto it. "Careful with that fist slamming, the ref-girl might get the wrong idea if you keep doing it." Tatsuki said to her pain squirming opponent while she tried to keep her in place.

It wasn't long until Aoi started to crawl towards the ropes to do the rope break to force Tatsuki to release the girl, when honestly there was no reason to grab the ropes to do so. Since Aoi was on top of Tatsuki and not vice versa with nothing else other then her legs holding her, her crawling is actually making her move OFF of the athlete while Tatsuki stayed in place. As she crawled away, Tatsuki was losing leverage to hold onto the girl's legs so once she crawled far enough, the athlete let go of the blue head's legs and stood back up and walks to the nearest corner.

Tatsuki still wants to do aerial tactics and if Aoi remains laying down on the mat this will be a perfect chance for one. The athlete climbs up on the turnbuckle and turns her head back to look and get a good view of Aoi's position. Turning her head back, Tatsuki turns herself to face at the blue head and then jumps off of the turnbuckle to try and slam her elbow onto Aoi's back with a Diving Elbow Drop. While this is a good aerial attack, it's also dangerous to the user should her opponent move out of the way or counter it somehow, so Tatsuki hopes that Aoi can remain still long enough for the attack to make contact.

Aoi groaned as she was still laying on the mat she was hurting still but she was recovering as much as she could, seeing Tatsuki on the corner made her worry as she knew that Tatsuki was planing something still laying on the ground Aoi simply watched her foe climb the turnbuckle now knowing whats on the athletes mind Aoi waited for the right to dodge the athletes attack. Smiling abit once the athlete jumped Aoi would move out of the way so Tatsuki would hit nothing but the mat "dont... th-think .... im out....yet" Aoi panted knowing she didnt had much left to fight anymore.

moving in as fast as she could to pull Tatsuki up Aoi would Knee her once to make her double over befor placing her right around the athletes head setting her up for a DDT but Aoi wasn't planing on a DDT, as she grabbed Tatsuki's right leg and with what ever strength she had up hoisted the Athlete up staying like that for a few seconds befor dropping back down .
