Every Rose has its thorns- Zetta vs Rose!

[SubtleRoar]

Zetta hadn't been too thrilled with the way her previous bout unfurled, resulting in a humiliating loss to someone she considered far beneath her. However, despite this, The Phoenix Queen picked herself back up and decided that the best way to take her mind off of things would be to continue participating in her most cherished hobby: Wrestling. Dawning her unique, vibrant mask that concealed her forlorn countenance Zetta threw on her jacket and stormed down the hallway, weaving in between miscellaneous jobbers along the way. Finally reaching the darkened curtain, the easterner nervous hopped on the balls of her feet, trying to diminish as much of her anxiety as she could before her music finally started.*

*As she crept into the spotlight, the audience reminded her how loved she truly was in their eyes, receiving a humungous pop the instant she appeared. This coaxed her into dipping her slender body towards the ground, striking a martial arts pose that showcased her flexibility. Maintaining this position for a few seconds, Zetta felt the flashing lights surround her. It was quite the mesmerizing sensation, but she knew her overzealous fans were incredibly grateful to photograph her.*

*Finally deciding to make her way towards the arena, Zetta's feet shivered just a bit as they kissed the steel steps, but in an instant she was coasting through the air, landing square on the platforms of her feet before twisting around and facing the walk ramp. Popping her diminutive body upwards, Zetta lifted a solitary leg by her face, curious to see her opponent try and top her introduction.*

As the introduction to Roller Coaster Love began playing, the crowd erupted into cheers as another fan favorite began making her to the ring, the former idol Rose dancing in tune to the song as she greeted the fans with a bright smile.

As she reached the ring, she climbed the ropes and gave the front row a little row as she swiveled her hips before entering through the ropes. Spinning to the center of the ring, she posed to the crowd and then repeated the motion to Zetta in front of her as as a slight dig to her opponent's flashy entrance. Once the entrance was finished, Rose began taking off her hat and accessories while walking to her corner in preparation to the match.

*Finally removing her ornate mask, Zetta caught a glimpse of her approaching opponent- Her ensemble rivaled something out of Kieda's closet with how elaborately designed it was, even causing The Phoenix Queen to blink in disbelief at how intricate it appeared to be. However, she was instantly rubbed the wrong way once Rose decided to taunt her grandiose introduction. That was something she always invested a significant amount of passion into, and witnessing this pompous stranger try to mock her was enough of a reason for Zetta to automatically dislike her.*

*After both participants had been given a sufficient amount of time to prepare, the bell suddenly rang with a sonorous* "Clang clang clang!" *And Zetta would waste little time in establishing her dominance right out of the gate. Dashing towards her foe, Zetta suddenly lunged through the sky and launched a roundhouse kick aimed for Rose's dome to try and set the pace of this brawl!*

The bell had only rung when Zetta decided to rush towards the idol. Rose barely managed to roll out of the way to avoid the kick and lunged towards Zetta, looking to deliver her Thunderstruck cutter early to finish the match.

[SubtleRoar]

*As the fleet-footed Phoenix executed her snapping kick to Rose's cranium, she was astonished at how agile her adversary was, somehow managing to completely evade her impromptu kick and escape unscathed. Zetta, however, maintained her constant level of vigilance, which immediately paid dividends as Rose would attempt to prematurely finish the fight with her signature move!*

"Hmph!" *Retaining her taciturn form, Zetta dropped her petite frame and escaped what could have potentially been an untimely end to the brawl, instantly popping back up to retaliate with an attack of her own. Taking a powerful step forward, the aerodynamic easterner attempted to shoulder tackle Rose from behind, slamming her shoulder into the woman's backside!*

Rose thought that she had the over-zealous Zetta where she wanted her, but the martial artist proved to be a bit smarter than Rose originally thought as she felt her hands grab nothing. The former idol suddenly felt a force slam against her back and Rose was pushed towards the ropes chest first. Not wanting to give up on this exchange however, Rose quickly opted to counter attacked and looked to do so with a pele kick.

[SubtleRoar]

*Having propelled herself forward to try and knock Rose off of her feet, The Phoenix Queen was shocked to discover that her foe was far more resilient than she had given her credit for, retaliating with a discombobulating kick that smashed directly into her skull!* "Gggguhh!" *Her body staggered backwards before finally collapsing against the canvas, stretching her arms downwards to try and catch herself to mitigate the fall.* "Hhhnhh" *Zetta hummed aloud, visibly reeling from the move.*

Rose turned to see that Zetta was downed, firmly gaining control of the match. She quickly grabbed a handful of hair and pulled Zetta to a standing position. She'd then pull Zetta into a facelock and looked to snap a quick suplex to further weaken the martial artist.

[SubtleRoar]

*While lingering against the surface of the ring to try and recuperate, Zetta suddenly felt herself being lifted off the ground and high into the sky. While this sensation was something she had become well acquainted with years ago, there was little The Phoenix Queen could do to counter, given her fatigue. As she was hoisted upward, Zetta eventually felt her backside smash against the canvas, forcing her to release a* "Nnggaah!" *Of a scream that sent a blast of anguish throughout her backside!*

Seeing the success of the suplex, Rose quickly floated over to a later press and hooked the inside leg for the quick pin.

"ONE!"
