Crimson Legacy vs. Bambi and Thumper - Odd Man Out

[BlackAkuma]

Got him.

Arthur didn’t know exactly what Alex would do when he moved away, but he figured the setup was good enough for her to work with. They’d been working together long enough that he had a good sense for what she could and couldn't take, how long she would need to recover in any given situation, and he felt that one was timed out just right.

With Kyo being floored, Arthur looked on with folded arms and his best shit-eating grin, trying not to look as satisfied as he felt. Alex was already moving on, grabbing him by the hair and forcing him to stand as the referee poked her head under the ropes to chastise them, but he had to get a few words in.

”Eyes on the prize, boyo.” He leaned in. ”Didn’t your old man teach you to focus?”

Alex wouldn’t give him the chance to reply, even if he wanted - in the next moment, she spun about and sent him rolling into the ring, then hopped up on the apron and promptly followed after him.

Kyo was wheezing now. That forearm, he noted, had done just enough to knock the air out of his lungs. That, of course, was a bad thing: though a lot of people didn't realize it, being able to regulate one's breathing was one of many keys to fighting effectively, even outside of just potentially being knocked out by things like sleeper holds. He focused and regulated his breathing, but by that point Alex was already yanking him by the hair. He winced as he was yanked up to his feet...at which point the man said something absolutely snide...

...about his dad? Wait a damned minute, just who the hell was this guy?

He was still wondering that as Alex sent him rolling into the ring. Grimacing, he began to push himself to his hands and knees, slowly recovering his strength...and biding his time for whatever came next...

In you go.

Alex tossed Kyo back into the ring, just as the referee was starting to get dangerously high on the count, ending their little escapade on the outside of the ring. She threw a quick glance Arthur’s way, and saw him looking ridiculously pleased for a man whose sole accomplishment in the past five minutes was standing in the right place at the right time. Typical.

Back inside. She slipped under the ropes and came after Kyo, grabbing him by the arm while he tried to rise. She was about to continue her assault when she heard a quick whistle coming from her side and looked up to see Betty waving her way. ”Over here, let me get a little piece!”

”Coming right up.” She gripped Kyo by the wrist, pulled him through, and tried to Irish Whip him towards their corner, pushing against his back as she went for some added effort. The moment he hit the pads in their corner, Betty would be waiting to greet him, grabbing the ropes and swinging her leg up to try and hit him in the head with an enziguiri.
