Standard Tag-Team Match
Victory Conditions: Gained by either pin, KO, or submission from the opponent.
Normal rules apply.
Both Bethany and Cynthia were once again teaming up for a tag-team match tonight. The two of them didn't really have a good record here in LAW, but they had been trying very hard to give a good showing in the ring despite their performance. Tonight, they got this opportunity to show what they were made of. The sisters made their entrance as their music was played, and like always, they were wearing matching outfits that looked similar to their mother's. Jaeger Sisters
Despite their not-too-impressive performance in this company, the sisters still had a huge following, and both Bethany and Cynthia were determined to show their fans what they were made of. Soon, they reached the ring, and after posing for a bit, they entered the ring before they waited for their opponents to arrive. They did some warm up and light stretches to get themselves ready for the match. All the while, the two of them were looking at the direction of the entrance to see the other team.
As she waited for her name to be called, Yukino Fuyumi stood in front of the mirror in the locker room, her head down and her eyes shut. She took slow, deep breaths, doing her best to focus. She couldn't deny, she was a little scared. The last time she'd been in a match, it had led to her being dominated, humiliated, and stripped in front of the whole crowd. Yukino had only been wrestling a short amount of time at this point, but it was still the most devastating loss she'd been dealt thus far, and she was having a hard time imagining how it could possibly get any worse. She didn't want this match to test it - and the thought of going back out, in front of thousands of people around the world who had seen her naked not long before, made her heart sink.
But when Yukino looked back up at her reflection, her eyes narrowed with a growing confidence. After that match, she would have considered retiring from wrestling altogether...were it not for her best friend, Nashi Dragneel, who vowed to stand by her side no matter what happened, and who wouldn't let even Yukino's defeat there mean the end of their team, which had carried them through their idol career into the world of wrestling. Nashi still believed in her, and she believed she could bounce back from such a loss. And tonight, Nashi would be in her corner - not just for moral support, but as a tag team partner! Seeing her unshakable atitude gave Yukino hope - she always had a way of cheering people up, and bringing out the best in them; that would surely be the case here. With Nashi on her side, this might not be so bad after all.
Furthermore, she was willing to turn that defeat into a step forward into a new beginning. When Yukino had started wrestling, she had worn the same outfit she'd worn to her concerts. After Kira had destroyed it, though, Yukino now had the chance to debut an all-new outfit, one that would show the world she was moving forward not just as an idol, but as a wrestler. She looked herself over in the mirror, making sure everything looked right, and she nodded her head as though in agreement. The only thing left now, though, was for Nashi to arrive on the scene...

Nashi knew what was going on with Yukino. After her previous match, Yukino considered retiring but Nashi couldn’t do that especially after they teamed up again.
Tonight not only would Yukino wear a brand spanking new outfit but also Nashi as well! She came out to show it off and asked”how do I look?, uou cut you’re hair out of me loosing mine so why don’t I return ?” she said with a cheeky smile walking up to her friend. Spoiler
Nashi went to wrap her arm around her’s to interlock and asked”you ready to go out there and sing!?” she asked holding out a microphone so they could sing they’re entrance!

When the two of them were preparing for this match, Nashi had told Yukino she wanted to surprise her. Now, as she stepped up to take her partner's side, the white-haired girl could finally see what she meant - and when she did, her jaw dropped. Yukino wasn't the only one debuting a new outfit in this match. Nashi had gotten one of her own to match! As Yukino looked her up and down, her smile grew wider and wider. She knew the two of them would only look even better at each others' sides when they both had their new, fully-fledged wrestling outfits to show to the world. Yukino might have doubted before if she would ever live up to Nashi - but that didn't matter now that they had a fresh start, together. Now that they were building their fame in front of a new crowd, in a new world, it was their chance to forge a new image for themselves, and Nashi was taking the first step. And that image was one where they complimented each other perfectly; at last, they were the tag team they always needed to be! "Oh my god-! Nashi, you look amazing...but you didn't tell me you'd get a new outfit! You didn't need to..."
But when Nashi explained her reasons, Yukino stopped. She reached up to feel the edges of her cropped haircut, and as she did, her smile grew wider. After Nashi had lost a Hair vs. Hair match, Yukino had cut her hair too, just to make her feel like she wasn't alone. Even now that Nashi's hair had grown out again, she still kept it, a reminder of how she had always wanted to do what was right for her friend. And now, even though she hadn't lost an Attire vs. Attire match like she had, even if she didn't have to, Nashi had returned the favor. Yukino wanted to question her for turning her back on the past that had made her famous, but she couldn't think of a question she hadn't already seen answered. She had no reason to argue. She had the only answer she needed - Nashi would always support her.
Instead, she would flash Nashi a grin, standing a little taller as she wrapped her arm tighter around the pink-haired girl's own. "...You're the best, Nashi. You know that?" She squeezed her friend's hand, just before she glanced up at the door in front of her. "C'mon, I think it's our time!"
As the announcer called out their names, Yukino would step onto the ring, still arm in arm with Nashi. She got a few cheers at the sight of her new outfit, which made her blush a little harder when she thought about how things had barely begun for their new looks and they were already a rousing success! She waved to the crowd and blew a few kisses before, with a nod to Nashi, she took the microphone and began to sing into it as she sauntered down one side of the aisle. Spoiler
Yukino's voice hit every note of the song with a well-placed grace; she hadn't slipped even a little from her days of singing on stage. With each step she took, twirling and sauntering on her way to the ring as if her entrance was a dance, she could feel her grin growing a little wider - it brought back fond memories of all the concerts she'd been in with Nashi; how much she'd enjoyed standing by her best friend's side, and how much it had sent her heart aflutter whenever she heard the cheers of all their fans rallying behind them. When she finished the song, Yukino turned around to face the fans with a bow, and already they broke into a torrent of cheers and applause. Yukino was back. For a moment, she wasn't a yet-unproven rookie coming off a big loss - she was an idol at the heigh of her stardom!
But after all was said and done, Yukino still turned to face the Hunters either way, and the wistful, nostalgic smile on her face hardened as she stepped into the ring. She still had a match to win, after all!
Nashi was excited to see how Yukino would react to her returning her favor. “I couldn’t call myself you’re best friend if I didn’t do the same thing you did for me” She smiled lightly at her best friend. Nashi felt proud to call Yukino her best friend, even she helped her out of poverty, Yukino helped her out with getting good grades and she always loved hanging out with her on holidays. Even when Nashi was destroyed by Astrid in her first match, Yukino showed how much they’re friendship meant by cutting her beautiful white/blue hair short.
When they’re arms were interlocked with one another, Nashi would look at Yukino and giggle.”Yukino…. We’re both the bests we’re equals” she flashed a bright grin and as they were leaving she said”HECK YA!” she shouted proudly.
As they came out to the top ramp. The idol duo would release they’re arms and stand back to back with their arms crossed to leave an intimidating stare at the opponents. Spoiler
They would soon lock arms again before singing a different song, the pair decided they would change they’re entrance theme every now and then to get the crowd more pumped! Nashi would listen to the crowds cheer of the new outfits and felt happy the change in attire payed off. Much like her friend the pink idol would blow kisses and wave to the crowd before picking up the microphone for her.
Nashi’s voice was still as elegant as when she was an idol. Similar to her friend she would also saunter down to the ring as if this were a dance between partners. All off these emotions and actions reminded her of when they were idols and how much fun they had no matter the exhaustion the duo faced!
Once they reached the ring they would step through the ropes and take a bow to the crowd. Nashi starred at the sisters as she removed her arm and said”Yukino want me to start us off? Or do you?” she asked her partner to see how she’d feel about all this before they’re match started!
Yukino was excited to be out there in front of a crowd again, knowing she was putting her best face forward in front of thousands and that every one of them was cheering her on, wanting to see her be the best she could be. But it was even better with Nashi at her side. They had been inseparable as a duo in their idol days, and now, it was time for them to put that teamwork to the test in the ring! When they entered together, arm in arm, Yukino felt that same sense of connection she got every time they went out on stage - which told her it would be able to carry her through! When she looked over at Nashi, the white-haired girl grinned a determined grin. With her on her side, she was sure the two of them would soar to new heights.
Then, she looked back at their opponents, sizing Bethany and Cynthia up and down. Certainly they looked less imposing than Kira Kusangi or Alaina Sanders, and that was enough to make her breathe a sigh of relief - but of course, Yukino knew it would be a costly mistake to underestimate them, and she needed to give this her all all the same. When Nashi spoke up, Yukino looked back at her - and, thinking back on her painful and degrading loss to Kira, she bit her lip. She might have had a promising start, but it had all come crashing down in the end, and she had never felt as hopeless and as she did afterward. But she wanted to build herself back up - and now that she was with Nashi, in her new outfit, that task didn't seem quite as daunting. This, she knew, was her chance to set the matter right. She had to do it, and she wanted to start things off on the right foot!
"I'll take this one," Yukino said, nodding her head to Nashi. "I have to. I don't want anyone out there thinking I don't have what it takes!"
Nashi enjoyed the crowds applause from them, despite the losses they had in singles they knew when they work together nothing can stop them! As the pinklette saw their opponent’s she to felt relieved they weren’t giants but lightweights. While Nashi was happy about the matchup, much like her partner she had to keep up her guard just in case!
When Yukino offered to go first Nashi immediately knew why it would be the case”Absolutely Yukino! Now go get’em tiger! Or go get’em dragon ” the firey idol playfully teased as she stepped through the ropes and stand outside by the turnbuckle if Yukino needed a tag out.
Both Bethany and Cynthia watched as the other team made their entrance. They then looked at each other, nodding to each other grimly. This match might look difficult due to the other team looking rather formidable, but the sisters weren't going to give up just because the other team looked strong. They were determined to win this and improve their standing in the promotion.
"Lemme go first, sis." Cynthia told Bethany as she would slip through the ropes, looking to face the other team. It seemed that the one whom she would be facing from the other team would be Yukino. Bethany gave Cynthia an encouraging pat on her shoulder as she would wait at her corner. The pink-haired Jaeger sister got into the ring to face Yukino.
Waiting for the match to begin, Cynthia stood before Yukino. "I'm sorry, but we need to win this." She said, looking determined. Soon, the referee would start the match, calling for the bell to be sounded. Now that the match had started, Cynthia would get into a stance, raising her hands while bending her knees slightly, cautiously looking at her opponent as she would wait for her to make her move.
Yukino wasn't going to pretend she wasn't nervous. She was - she was still getting used to the ring, and she hadn't had the best luck with her matches thus far. But she knew that running away, and shying away from danger, wasn't going to help anyone. She needed to apply herself, and to show the world she was as capable as anyone - that she belonged in this ring. Sucking in a breath, she stood a little taller as she entered the ring, locking her eyes on Cynthia. Inside, her heart was beating nervously, but she took in a few deep breaths to steady herself. She wouldn't falter when she needed it most. She saw that her would-be opponent was just as determined to win as she was, and that could only push her to step up her game all the more to match.
"I hate to break it to you," Yukino muttered, "but Nashi and I are in the same boat." She wouldn't back down - placing her hands on her hips, she stepped even closer to Cynthia, until they were all but in each others' faces, the edges of their large busts grazing against each other. This was her chance to show the world she wouldn't be afraid, and she had every intention of making good on it.
When the bell rang, Yukino too dropped into a stance, mirroring every move that Cynthia made. She would lean in closer, attempting to narrow the distance as she grabbed for Cynthia's wrists and pushed back at them to enter a test of strength. More than anything else, Yukino wanted to prove she wasn't afraid, and the best way she could do that was putting a strong front forward from the start of the match!
Both Cynthia and Yukino were having a staredown before the match started. Soon, the match started, and the two of them began with a test of strength. Gritting her teeth, Cynthia would start applying her strength in the test of strength, hoping to be the one at the top in terms of pure strength.
"Nnnnghhh..."
While locked up with Yukino in the test of strength, Cynthia looked into her eyes and gave her a determined look, making it clear that she wasn't one to be defeated easily. While the two of them were trying to overpower each other, Cynthia would then spread her arms, forcing Yukino to do the same before she attempted to slam herself chest first onto Yukino's front to put her under pressure.
