Kanako Sawatari vs Ivy Aster — Charity Match

[deezcastforms]

Ivy had felt every day of dance training Kanako had undergone while she was still Rise in that Pele Kick. The Lightweight may have given up her idol career, but her kicks were still reaping the benefits of it in the ring. Kanako may be building up her wrestling brand on the smothers her breasts and butt could deliver, but Ivy would personally argue that those legs were her more dangerous weapon.

Even worse, as if Kanako wasn't convinced that Ivy had gotten the memo, she followed up her Pele Kick with a 619, rocketing around blast the Brit in the back with both legs this time. Ivy was knocked fully back into the ring, but it wasn't a clean reentry. The bottom of her chin caught on the top rope, causing Ivy to pinball down into the middle rope which her shoulders hit against, before bouncing back into the ring proper. Flat on her stomach, Ivy crawled raggedly across the mat. There wasn't a set goal or destination in mind. Her body was just trying to move on instinct, to do something rather than just wait to be hit again.

With Ivy caught against the ropes Kanako would seek to launch her back into the ring in the most painful way possible with a 619, smashing her legs into the taller woman's back. The momentum Kanako generated with her attack would send Ivy back into the ring, albeit not in the cleanest way possible as she bounced off the ropes on the way in, and see the purplette crawling across the mat. Seeing Ivy in that weakened state drove Kanako to make an impulsive decision, she needed to bring out the big guns NOW and take Ivy down.

Kanako climbed back into the ring and stood behind the aristocrat in her blind spot, stalking her like a predator as she waited for Ivy to start rising. When Ivy did Kanako would suddenly burst out into a sprint to close the distance before leaping into the air with her legs extended, hoping to intercept Ivy's ascension by dropping her leg on the back of Ivy's head so that her weight and momentum drove Ivy down to the mat face first! This move was known formally as a Leg Drop Bulldog, but when Kanako chose this move as her finisher she put her own brand on it by dubbing it the White Dwarf!

Should the White Dwarf land Kanako would immediately push Ivy onto her back and throw herself onto her, lying across the bigger woman's upper body so that her arms and shoulders were pinned down. The referee would see this and immediately drop down to the mat, slapping the mat to signal the first pin count

"One!"

"Come on... stay down...!"

Ivy knew that just crawling along that mat wouldn't accomplish anything. It would only take Kanako so long to get back from outside the ring. Only so long before she went for the kill. Ivy had to get up. But unfortunately for the Brit, Kanako already was back in the ring, stalking Ivy, waiting for her to do the exact thing the Snow Rose thought was her best chance.

"AUGH!" Ivy yelled as Kanako's thigh spiked her face into the mat. Then came the cover. Kanako wanted to end it. And she almost would. Maybe if her already powerful legs had just a bit more in them in the last three kicks, if one of Kanako's kicks landed just a little better, if Ivy hadn't been so mercilessly drilled in durability training by Tiki, the Snow Rose would have been knocked silly by the White Dwarf and laid there beneath Kanako lolling her head around until bell rang.

Instead, the blow knocked Ivy awake, sending her mind into overdrive instead of fog. After she was pinned down, as the count reached 1, Ivy swung and twisted her legs up off the mat. That didn't get her shoulders off the mat, but Ivy knew how much time she had. Only a couple moments as the clock ticked, sure, but an eternity as the body moved. Ivy's legs came up over Kanako, past Ivy's own head, twisting and rolling her upper body to not only break the pin, but reverse the position to put herself on top of Kanako.

Ivy didn't have Kanako in a pin, laying more on the smaller woman's stomach, but that was all she needed. "I didn't give you enough credit. I'm sorry," Ivy said. "If I knew how dangerous you were, I wouldn't have played any games for the sake of the match. I'd have just won as efficiently as possible. However, I won't let you have another chance." With that, Ivy would lift Kanako up and put her into a Torture Rack. But little did she know that this was only the beginning.

The White Dwarf was the best move in Kanako's arsenal that didn't require her to climb the turnbuckle, and she was confident that it held the firepower she needed to put Ivy out of the match for good as she pinned her. But that confidence may have proved to be her undoing as she was taken completely off guard when Ivy's legs shot up and snaked around her body, and before she could try to break free she would find herself getting flipped onto her back with Ivy now lying atop her. Out of instinct Kanako would shoot a shoulder up off the mat, but much to the brunette's confusion Ivy wasn't even trying to pin her, she merely wanted to keep her in place so she couldn't slink away like last time.

Ivy would then admit that she had underestimated Kanako and apologise for not treating her seriously, a sentiment that Kanako might have appreciated had she not been preoccupied with having so suddenly been hauled off the mat and onto the Brit's shoulders "Ngaaaaagh!!! L-let go!" Kanako screamed as her lithe body was bent over Ivy's shoulders, her reaction this time was far more genuine than it was the last time Ivy "had" her in a hold. In a rush to escape Kanako would start writhing in Ivy's grasp, trying to jostle the woman underneath her and disrupt her balance enough to find an opening to escape. Maybe if she just had enough time she could reach over and grab Ivy by the hair to disrupt her, but it was hard to co-ordinate her attempt while being subjected to such a painful hold.

Ivy certainly wouldn't get an easy time locking in her Torture Rack from Kanako, but at the end of the day, she was considerably bigger and stronger than the brunette. The Snow Rose was eventually able to settle her opponent's writhing with the power of her grip well enough that she could call it stable. Now, it was time for something the world had not yet seen before.

Ivy Aster possessed mastery of both aerial and submission techniques, but considered herself an aerial specialist first and foremost. However, wrestling, or really physics, by its very nature, demanded that one spent more time on the ground than in the air. Aerial specialists with nothing else to fall back on had to put their bodies at risk fighting against the laws of the universe itself as much as their opponents in order to force a match to mold into the shape of their choosing.

Unlike those so dedicated to aerial combat that they were dependent upon it, Ivy had her submissions to fall back on, as well as her raw strength and speed. She could mitigate the risks of aerial combat by using her other skills to handle the bulk of matches and selectively choose only the best times to take flight. However, this led to Ivy's aerial talent being overshadowed, considered a secondary talent compared to her submissions, contrasting her own self-evaluation. That was especially true in this match, which had been as much show wrestling as real, as aerial moves were far more difficult to fake than submissions, especially considering Ivy had no practice faking moves.

But from the shadow of submissions, would Ivy's greatest new aerial technique emerge like the sun, blasting shadows away until you could never tell they were there.

Carrying Kanako in the Torture Rack, Ivy would sprint to the ropes and leap as high as she could, pulling her legs up like trying to clear a hurdle, before driving them down to slam her feet into the top rope. The women's combined weight and the force of Ivy's landing would predictably turn the top rope into a slingshot firing upwards. Ivy would crouch as her slingshot finished loading, then jumped with its launch, giving her as much height as possible. Only sacrificing as little as she had to in order to ensure she moved backwards to land inside the ring, rather than forwards into the crowd. She would also twist her body as she took off, causing her and Kanako to spin like a corkscrew. As Ivy reached the peak of her ascent, she would slide Kanako headfirst off of her shoulders, positioning her for a Piledriver.

It was relatively easy to reasonably name this hold based purely off the techniques used. Spinning was an obvious inclusion, as well as Avalanche, since this was a slam on a victim who was carried up onto the ropes. Combining the Torture Rack and Piledriver aspects of the move, considering how painful this would doubtless be, Torture Driver made more sense than Rack Driver. Yes, Spinning Avalanche Torture Driver. Though this mental exercise was irrelevant, as no wrestler with any semblance of sanity or respect for the sport would not give a move this powerful a special name to signify a signature technique. As for Ivy, she only needed a single word:

"CATACLYSM!"
