Demonic Villainy (Reiko and Arachne)

[dlamp]

Reiko was forgetting something, but she couldn't remember what.

Just as she finished up her private training session with the Young Lionesses she had a shaking suspicion that she had one more thing left to do. Something of importance. "Tch, why didn't I stick it in my phone." Not that doing that would help much, she kept her phone in her locker. Plus, most of her schedule was already in her phone. "Uh... Maybe I had to help Makishima-sensei with something? I don't think she on duty at the gym today though..." LAW staff had been pairing the two together every now and then, but she didn't think they'd have anything today, at least not together. "Something in the medical wing...?" That sounded about right given the time of day, a lot of gym-goers sometimes peeked their heads into the medical section for check-ups and updates on how their training went, but that didn't seem like the case either. "Hmmm..."

"Oh well! Guess it wasn't important!" Throwing up her hands in mental defeat, she moved to find a decent spot to practice a few katas before calling it a day. Maybe I'll DM Makishima-sensei to be sure after my katas...

[dddybee]

As Reiko was practicing her katas in the gym, a certain mischievous arachnid was looking for her. Arachne and Reiko had met on Twitter, after the ladder offered a spar and the spider eagerly accepted. Reiko had DM'ed her gym times to Arachne and the spider-girl was on time, but the demon-girl was no where to be found. Amano was practicing her martial arts, in an obscure area of LAW's gym. And with the demon also forgetting about their planned spar, Arachne and Reiko had simply missed each other.

Arachne, for all her silliness, was a surprisingly patient girl. She figured Amano was simply running late and would amble in the gym any moment now. Ms. Spyder couldn't help herself but to use this opportunity to play a little trick on her upcoming sparing partner. She would ambush Reiko as soon as the demon came through those gym doors, in order to kick off their spar! As naughty as Arachne was, there was no malice towards Amano on her part. They were planning on fighting anyway and Arachne didn't care about trivial things like where exactly in the gym spars should take place.

Arachne's Causal Theme

"HehHehHeh. Maybe this will teach her to be here on time." Arachne snickered to herself, hiding behind a weight machine adjacent to the gym doors. However, there were two big problems. One, Arachne didn't know what Amano looked like outside the ring. While at LAW, Arachne could be frequently found in her wrestling attire, regardless if she had a match or not. She assumed Reiko was the same way, but that was not the case. Two, even if it had been the case, Reiko was already in the gym. Arachne just hadn't found her.

The spider had a false gut-feeling Amano would be the next person to enter the gym. "MWAHAHAHA!" Arachne cackled, as she pounced on the next person without checking, putting them in a painful leg split hold! "Greetings, demon! I-" When she realized she had the wrong, screaming person, she let them go, but not before snagging a cookie from their pocket. She tried again with the next gym goer and the same thing happened, but this time Arachne stole a watch. This process would repeat for a good bit, with Arachne taking various items from innocent people for craps and giggles. The spider was clearly taking advantage of what started off as somewhat of a mistake.

"Oh, this is just perfect!" Arachne snickered, from behind the cover of the weight machine. She now had a group of stolen items stored in her Thorax Backpack. "The longer the demon takes to get here, the more Arachne commits harassment and thievery! This is so hilarious! Hahahahaaaaaaa!" It seems Reiko forgetting about the Villainess of the Spider Web was costing the gym goers quite a bit!

Arachne's Appearance

[dlamp]

"Hah! Seiya! Yaah!" A straight punch, a chop at the throat, an uppercut. She went through each movement with fluidity, her shouts gaining a few eyes, but nothing more. Since her official new job of assistant trainer most gym goers were used to the girl's kiai shouts and routine at this point. It was a small relief to her. And with this being the last step in her training she could call it a-

"Gyaaaaaaa!"

-day...

...

...

Or... maybe not.

The scene Reiko saw looked like something straight out of a morning anime. A woman in full wrestling gear striking, assaulting, and then nicking things from practically every person coming into the gym to train, forcing them in some embarrassing hold before letting them go. And another... and another... and- wow, that was the fifth person she just assaulted.

She knew the attacker the second she saw her. Arachne, a extremely outgoing and villainous wrestler with a knack for flair. And... that was all Reiko really knew. All her interactions with the woman were passing glances backstage and a few twitter interactions where she DM'd Arachne her-

Shit! That's what I forgot!

That's right, Reiko had made plans to have a spar with the woman. And... she completely forgot to also send a photo of herself in training attire. But... taking that out on everyone else... Forgetting something like a spar was a dick move on Reiko's part, but... this was just too over-the-top. And as much as it had to be stopped... Reiko had the shaking suspicion the entire gym would be up in arms if they knew she was the cause of Arachne's assaulting frenzy. Okay... how to fix this... Standing around watching victim #7 wasn't going to help, so... "Hey!" Reiko quickly jogged over to the scene, putting on her best serious expression. "If you wanna' pick a fight, how about taking on someone your own size!"

[dddybee]

Arachne was filled to the brim with chaotic energy, that had been left unchecked, due to Reiko forgetting their spar. So now the villainess was having quite a fun time practicing her skillful submission moves, on unwilling gym goers, all for her own personal enjoyment. And she loved the naughty feeling of swiping various items from these suckers as well. The spider munched on the stolen cookie from the first victim, before waiting for the next unfortunate gym goer! "Time for victim number seven!" Arachne giggled. "Out of twenty...five......THOUSAND!"

However, the spider's sparing partner had finally noticed the mischievous bug and remembered what they had planned! Opting to stop Arachne's bad behavior, Reiko at last appeared and confronted her sparing partner. Amano arrived right on time to save what would've been victim #7, as Arachne turned her attention towards her, rather than the seventh person entering the gym. In contrast to Reiko's serious expression, Arachne grinned from ear to ear, as she approached the demonic woman.

"Well, well, well...Looks like Arachne has finally summoned a demon from the chaos realm." She snickered. "You must be Amano. I assume you initially forgot, hmmm? But no worries. Ms. Spyder's had a blast killing time, trapping a bunch of random insects in her web, snagging a bunch of items. And then storing them, into my Thorax Backpack of stolen, private property! AAAAHAHAHAHAAAA!"

"Don't worry. They don't need any of these things......probably." One of Arachne's pervious victims was stumbling around in the background, demanding a crazy spider girl give back his glasses, before he bumped into a gym wall. "Ooopsie." The villainess giggled, pulling out a pair of stolen glasses. She then put the glasses from victim #4, as well as the now half-eaten cookie from victim #1, back into her spider-themed backpack.

Arachne then got into a fighting stance, squaring up with Reiko. "Perhaps you are a good demon. You wanna stop Arachne here and now? Bring it on, Amano!" The spider of course didn't know the demon's outside of ring name, just as she hadn't known Reiko's outside of ring appearance until now. Regardless, the villainess motioned for her sparing partner to make the first move, eager to get this spar underway! Ring or no ring!

[dlamp]

Part of Reiko had hoped Arachne would just see Reiko as a random gym-goer wanting to stop the madness, but she had to give it to the woman, she sniffed Reiko out pretty fast. Not that the fighter really hid her face or anything, but... it would had been nice to not feel the glares from the several gym-goers as they put two-and-two together to realize Reiko's hand in this villain's spree of assault and theft. Ah shit, she just had to say it. So much for doing this incognito, but at a flashy fight might make take everyone's mind off things and keep her reputation somewhat intact.

Plus, she wasn't one to turn down a challenge given to her.

"Kehe..." Reiko grinned, rolling her shoulders before settling into her own stance, legs apart and arms raised to her chest with open palms. "You're on, Kumo-chan! I'll show you what kind of demon I am!" Given all the submissions she saw Arachne used going for a grapple wouldn't be wise. So, Reiko rushed forward for a quick and dirty headbutt against the Spider's skull.

Why would demon fight fair against a villain after all?

[dddybee]

Arachne indeed had guessed correctly, that the tomboyish girl who had confronted her was indeed Amano. Naturally, this caused Arachne's six victims to glare at both of them with disdain, given the circumstances of the spider's villainy. However, they certainly wouldn't mind seeing Arachne knocked down a peg or two, not that Widow planned to grant the onlookers their wish.

The arachnid was happy to see the demon grin at her, as the two wrestlers accepted each other's challenge. The spar was on! Arachne was paying close attention, as she urged Reiko to attack first. On top of that, the spider was very fast, so she managed to dodge Amano's headbutt attack! "Haha! So close!" She taunted, dashing off to the side. "I guess those demon horns aren't just for show, but neither are these spider legs!"

Arachne would use her impressive speed to race around Reiko, trying to confuse her before attacking from behind. She would then attempt to pull Amano down onto the gym floor, while trying to put her in a leg split hold! The spider was going for the first move she had used on victim number one! A move that had been intended for the demon to begin with!

[dlamp]

"Woah-" Reiko staggered forward, her cheap shot missing Arachne by a bit. And not only that, the woman was able to slip right behind herself as Reiko started to regain her balance, snatching her up by the legs and dragging her to the ground. "Wo-!" Reiko hit the gym floor with a small thud, getting a groan from a few of the onlookers. But it didn't end with a simple trip up. Reiko could feel her legs start to split apart. Oh hell no!

"Ragh!" With a short snarl, Reiko thrashed her legs before the split could complete, trying to twist her body and break Arachne's grip on her legs and ankles. She wasn't about to go down that easily.

[dddybee]

After dodging what Reiko intended to be a surprise headbutt, Arachne maneuvered around the demon before making her first move. The spider was successful in yanking her opponent down to the hard, gym floor, before trying to preform a skillful leg split! The bug snagged one of Amano's thighs with her arms, and secured the other in her own legs, before attempting to split the demon's lower limbs apart.

However, Reiko had no intention of succumbing to the submission hold. The resident of the underworld fought back, twisting her body and snapping free of Ms. Spyder's clutches! "Huh?! Oh, so you've broken free of Arachne's web?" Arachne said, with a bit of amusement in her voice. "Luckily, I've got plenty more thread to spin!" From one trap move to the next, Arachne would try to maneuver her thighs around Reiko's head. Hopefully, before the demon could rise, the spider would attempt a classic headscissors!

[dlamp]

"Wouldn't be a fight if you got me one move, Kumo-chan." Reiko teased with a smirk. But as the woman said, the fight was far from over and there were many more moves Arachne wanted to show off. And the retaliation came fast.

Arachne slipped herself and her legs right over Reiko's neck as she sat up, the jaws tightening into an asphyxiating headscissors that immediately made it near impossible to breath. "G-Gh..." Reiko's face turned a light red as oxygen was denied, eyes narrowed as she gritted her teeth against the pressure. Unlike in the ring, these was no chance at a rope break in the middle of the gym floor, and few of the gym-goers looked inclined to play ref for this sudden bout. Alright you little spider, try this! Reiko's hands went to Arachne's legs, searching right under her knees with her thighs met with Reiko's neck and chin. It was likely the fulcrum of the hold, and the joints alone would be a sensitive. Found it! And with that target in mind, Reiko's jaw tightened.

"Hnnn!"

And her open palm moved to slam right under Arachne's legs to force her to break the hold with pain.

[dddybee]

After breaking free from Arachne's first submission hold, the villainous heel would just have to put her opponent in another one. And she managed to do just that, immediately switching things up into an air-denying headscissors! "Mwahahaha!" Arachne cackled. "Let's see you break out of Ms. Spyder's latest web! Careful now. If you don't escape, Arachne will have to inject you with venom and suck out your insides. Mmmm! You'll make a tastier treat than the cookie that I stole!"

However, during the silly bug's usual goofballing, Reiko was coming up with a plan to fight back! Enduring through a reddened face, narrowed eyes, and gritted teeth, Amano was feeling on Arachne's legs. She was looking for a good place to be able to attack the spider's joint. "Aww, I appreciate you feeling my toned thigh muscles, before you pass-OW!" With a skillful palm strike under Arachne's knee, the demon had forced the spider to release her! It was almost like Reiko was a skilled at martial arts or something. lol

Reiko's wise assessment was correct. She had indeed struck a sensitive part of Arachne's curvy legs. This caused the spider to sit up and rub the area that was struck. Groaning a bit, and leaving Reiko an opportunity to recover and attack, should the demon be quick in doing so!
