A Spiritual Showdown...Yōkai vs Goddess: Chie Akiyama vs Kaelara Tripathi

[Misfit_Alien]

Kaelara was an admirable foe, and a skilled one at that. To think that she was this talented at such a young age...well, young compared to Chie...Still, it was proving difficult to match at times, as she blended her charms with those exquisite maneuvers of hers, each one like another step in a long-winded dance, precise and with little waste between movements. Even as they came together, Chie could tell that Kaelara was willingly giving up more and more leverage, but even so, the foxy woman wouldn't be able to counteract Kae's sharp pivot in time. Her moves were just too quick. Even a half-step made a difference in a fight, and Kaelara proved that she could work with any opportunity. It all happened in a blur, as Chie felt her feet leaving the mat before the arena spun around her, only for her entire world to go from vertical to horizontal before she hit the mat.

"GH-" Chie grunted, her shoulder hitting the canvas as she was forced down in the blink of an eye. Kaelara's swift movements were proving quite troublesome. Still, the white-haired woman had to keep a level head, lest she fall into another one of Kaelara's traps. "Well, I do try to impress-..." She said, her cheeks warming up as she felt Kaelara's breath along her ear. Chie would shudder in response, feeling a few goosebumps forming on her arms as a tingling sensation ran down her spine. "I sound like a broken record by now, but-...You're rather skilled yourself. So many surprises...It's rather annoying how you make such textbook movements look so grandiose." Chie said, chuckling under her breath. "I ought to be ashamed, allowing such a simple takedown to work on me, perhaps I'm starting to get shabby-..." She mused sarcastically.

She began to struggle slowly, trying to inch her way toward escape as she nudged and wiggled her body around, checking to see where the weakest link might be in Kae's hold. She'd attempt to buck her hips and kick her legs, looking to scramble however she could by utilizing her MMA experience. With no leverage on her side, she had to aim for the ropes, as Kae's body was bearing down on her, with one arm wrapped tightly around her, leaving Chie with little room to move. Left with no other options, the kitsune-themed wrestler thrashed about, trying to scoot her body around and close in on the nearest set of ropes to force a break. "As fun as it is to lay beside you, 'goddess', I'm afraid I cannot allow myself to be taken advantage of so easily-...you might have this fox in a trap, but I'm far more sly than you could ever give me credit for-..."
