L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

"M-Miss Saitou, are you okay in there..?"

"Yes, yes, coming-!"

It came as no surprise to anyone that after their match together, the newly-debuting Young Lioness graduate Sanae Saitou and up-and-coming LAW icon Alizeh Midori would meet again soon. While they had been put up against each other by a matter of chance, they found that their upbeat attitudes, fiery determination, and eagerness to push the envelope were reflected in one another - and they brought out the best in each other, encouraging each other to keep going a step further beyond and outdoing both what their opponents did and what they themselves had done last. It had led to a thrilling and unpredictable two-out-of-three-falls match, and even though Sanae, rookie she was, had lost, it had been a closely fought battle that looked like it could go to anyone even to the end. She had the chance to display her high-flying prowess and her strength that belied her small size, and she had endeared herself to many, including her opponent. Considering Sanae had only joined LAW in the hopes of leveraging it into an idol career, it was, all things considered, an enviable debut. And with how she and Alizeh had become fast friends by the end of the match, many were speculating how they would find each other next. Rivals? Tag team partners? Lovers? All anyone knew was that they wouldn't have seen the last of each other!

But the impetus for this meeting had come from a comment Alizeh had made on an old photo Sanae had posted on her social media, proposing the two of them get together for a swimsuit photoshoot. To Sanae, it seemed perfect. She was sure there would be plenty of fans eager to see more from her after she had made such an impact in her match, and with the debut of the newly-launched LAW Magazine, it couldn't come at a better time. The publication was looking for features that could catch the attention of their readers, and offering exclusive photos of some of the company's hottest stars - in whatever sense of the word - only seemed natural. Sanae was honored to be considered for the role, knowing that her match had put her on the map. But she was even more eager to meet up with Alizeh again.

"It's just, we're ready whenever..."

"Yeah, I'm here, I'm here-!"

Sanae burst from the dressing room, clad in a white bikini that flattered her curvaceous frame - and certainly caught the attention of LAW Magazine interviewer Takeda Ryoshi, who had been standing outside the door waiting for her. He stumbled back, his eyes wide as his gaze settled somewhere south of her face. "Bwuhhh?"

"Sorry! I hope I'm not late for anything!" For better or worse, Sanae seemed oblivious to his reactions.

"You're...you're fine. C'mon, let's just get you over to the cameras..." Heading back down the halls, he made his way to where the photographers were set up, with Sanae following close behind.

”Eeeey! I can’t believe that comment worked! Thanks LAW Twitter!” Alizeh said to herself as she giddily slipped on a bikini in the dressing room assigned to her by the magazine staff to get ready in. Securely fastening the the straps for her hips and back Alizheh smiled at herself in the mirror as she did a spin. “Hehe their gonna love this.” Alizeh thought to herself knowing she was ready. Leaning against the table in the room she allowed her mind to wander a bit while letting herself get used to the bikini. Although admittedly it wasn’t all that different from her wrestling gear.

It was no surprise to her that after her explosive battle with the debuting Sanae that the fans of LAW were incensed about where and how the two would meet next. A discussion that admittedly Alizeh had added fuel too with that last minute kiss after winning. But she certainly didn’t mind since it got the fans talking, and talk they did. Alizeh had spent quite a but of time exploring the LAW message boards and social media. Reading and giggling at some theories and ideas people proposed for where the two green haired wrestlers would go from here.

Admittedly Alizeh found the more... erotic centric ones a little too fun to read, but in truth they were all fun to get a look at. Ranging from them being friendly to unfriendly rivals, to tag team partners, etc. Honestly though Alizeh wasn’t quite sure where they’d go fron here on out, but this swimsuit photo shoot with the two as the stars was definitely a good place to start. One she was sure the fans would appreciate once the next issue of LAW magazine came out and the fans were able to see.

Ms.Midori we’re ready for you.” Turning from the knock on the door and following call Alizeh would look up from her thoughts with a smile. “Coming!” She called out as she pushed off the table and went to the door opening up and standing proudly before the female staff member who immediately blushed. ”R-R-Right T-Thank you for you’re punctuality ma’am! This way!” The female staff member stuttered out before gesturing for the giggling Alizeh to follow her to the area where the pictures would be taken, where Sanae was as well.

Following the reporter, Sanae would soon arrive at a photo studio set up for the shoot, with spotlights in place around a large backdrop depicting a clear summer sky. The space around it was cleared for the two girls to work their magic, while a crew of photographers hung back at their cameras set at various angles, trying to get the right shots. Sanae was on her way to take her place in front of the backdrop when Alizeh entered the room - and her interest was soon diverted.

"Alizeh! Hiiii!~" Grinning wide, Sanae hopped up, holding her hand high as she waved to the girl. If she was being honest, she almost hadn't believed it at first when she heard that she and Alizeh would be meeting up again. Their match together had been such an explosive event, not just for Sanae herself but for all involved, that it felt like something that could only come along once in a lifetime. But on the contrary, that just made everyone all the more eager to see the two of them cross paths again - and Sanae was no exception. When she saw Alizeh there, in front of her, she knew this was really happening, and she was thrilled!

"I missed you! You look great! I can't wait, this is gonna be fun!" Her eagerness was effusive, and she came running over to Alizeh with her arms spread wide. She would have pulled her into a hug right then and there, were it not for one of the cameramen to speak up.

"Hey, careful! You're out of frame!"

"Sorry, sir-!" She stepped back, heeding the signals from the photographer until she was where they wanted her. Nonetheless, she looked over at Alizeh with a smile, waiting for her to take her place beside her.

”Oooh fancy!” Alizeh said in an impressed tone as she was led by the staff member into the room where the pictures would be taken. Fancy being an understatement given the size and well equipped room with big lights and multiple high grade cameras situated around. Sashaying her way into the shooting area Alizhe came upon arguably the best sight in the entire building... Sanae Saitou in a bikini. A very tight bikini.

Immedaitely smiling at the girl who returned her excited reaction she would wave her hand at the girl. “Sanae it’s so good to see you again you’re looking freaking awesome!” She said matching Sanae’s excitement and energy with her own as the girl approached her smaller counterpart. Seeing the girl soread her arms out Alizeh eagerly did the same, fully ready to embrace Sanae...

... Only to be stopped by the director? Reporter? The guy in charge. Yeah the guy in charge stopped them from being able to do so. Shooting a look at the man Alizeh stuck her tongue out at him. “Kill joy.” She said as she took her place next to Sanae as directed by the photographer and struck a pose with her arms behind her her and pushing her hips to the side a bit. “We’ll hang out later.” She said softly to the smaller girl with a wink as she waited for the first round of photos to be take.

"Oh gosh-!" If Sanae was excited already, hearing Alizeh praise her was making her heart soar even higher. She could barely contain herself as her smile grew even wider. The fact that Alizeh, a woman with more experience and fame under her belt than Sanae, was still willing to help her out and see her as an equal - no, as a friend - meant more to her than she could ever put into words.

Of course, that was cut short by how the photographer told Sanae to get back into the frame. At once, she stepped back with a blush, realizing her enthusiasm had gotten the better of her - but that would soon melt away as Alizeh stepped up at her side. As the photographers directed them into place, Sanae held her fists up at her sides, her head and hip both tilted toward Alizeh with a grin on her face. It might have been the right pose for their shot, but for Sanae, the eagerness it conveyed was real.

As the camera flashes went off around her, Sanae nodded her head to Alizeh as the middleweight extended the offer to hang out - as much as she could before being told to stay still, anyway. "Oh! Yeah, I'd love to! Really, though, thanks so much for getting this going...I owe you one."

"Alright, for the next shot, let's get you two back to back," the photographer directed. Sanae started moving into place, but that didn't stop her from keeping up the conversation. She was just happy to be seeing Alizeh again, after the two had hit it off so well. "How've you been, anyway? I missed you!"

Alizeh smiled happily as she heard Sanae speak and couldn’t help but let her own excitemnt and jovialness bubble to the surface of her pose. ”Haha don’t mention it. It’s like a double whammy by giving us both some exposure and letting us hang a bit.” She said in response to Sanae thanking her for putting the ball rolling on this as cameras flashed around them for the pose the two were in.

As they were told to change positions Alizeh nodded and decided to be a bit cheeky as she reached back and grabbed Sanae’s hands from behind. Pulling them forward a bit Alizeh pressed her but backwards, pressing it into Sanae’s. “Hm not something we asked for, but I like it!” The photographer said as they started flashing pictures again, obviously not ones to turn down a more sensual than neccessary pose.

Alizeh meanwhile just chuckled at the photographer’s praise before responding to Sanae’s question. “Oh I’ve been great! How about you girl? Doing good so far in LAW?” Alizeh asked back after answering. Curious as to how the former young lioness was doing thus far in her still budding career

"Mm!" Sanae nodded excitedly to Alizeh. While she was excited that the middleweight could put in a good word for her, and she was honored to be given the attention of LAW Magazine - not to mention thrilled by the thought that her fame could only grow higher from here, as her presence in the photoshoot was sure to spark the attention of fans - she was even more happy to see Alizeh again. She was sure their friendship could only grow and blossom further.

With the photographers happy with their shots, and directing the two girls to assume the next position, Sanae got behind Alizeh, tilting her head toward the camera with a smile. This, she thought, would be simple enough; just a means to compare the two side by side. However, she wasn't anticipating Alizeh to take a more daring move, pushing her hips backward into Sanae's! Feeling the pressure from Alizeh's rear, Sanae yelped as she teetered forward, and a blush came to her face. But at the same time, she didn't mind it. The photographers definitely seemed happy - and there was something oddly comfortable about being this close to Alizeh.

"I've been doing great!~" Sanae cheered to Alizeh, looking back at her over her shoulder with a grin that the photographers were quick to capture. "I even won my first match not too long ago! I really think I'm going places! Of course," she added with a chuckle, "I'm probably still not on your level..."

”Alright good stuff! Next up lets do something with you two side to side, maybe with you’re arms arond each other since you two seem to be pretty friendly.” The director after the mytiad of shots were taken of the previous pose.

Nodding to Sanae with a grin Alizeh was happy to continue talking as they were guided into the next pose. “Hey that’s great I knew you’d do well.” She said brightly in response to the girl’s news that she had her first win not too long ago. However at the second bit of the girl’s words Alizeh playfully gave Samae a light punch to the shoulder. “Nonesense you did really well against me, especially since you’re so new to the sport. I’m sure you’ll just keep getting better.” Alizeh cheerily as the arm she used to playfully jab at Sanae than snaked up over Sanae’s shoulders gently.

Pulling the girl in close Alizeh would toss a peace sign to the camera while the aspiring idol was tood to wrap an arm around Alizeh’s waist. “Although the fact our ring styles gel really well.” Alizeh said with a chuckle as tbe cameras around the room primed, getting ready to start flashing once the two were ready. Meanwhile a sudden look of realization came over Alizeh’s face. “Oh that reminds me, offer still stands if you want me to show you some stuff.” Alizeh said rextending her offer to tutor Sanae with a bright smile on the older girl’s face as she waited for the younger one’s reply.

Sanae briefly took her attention off her fellow wrestler for long enough to look toward the director. With a smile on her face, she eagerly nodded. "Okay! Sounds good!"

Ordinarily, Sanae would be head over heels about being photographed, let alone appearing in a magazine. It meant whatever she was doing out there was good enough to catch people's eyes, and they had deemed her worthy of the attention. The thought tickled her. But right now, her attention wasn't on the photoshoot - save for the occasional moment where she was called to look a certain direction or stand a little straighter. She was just happy to be here with Alizeh again, and to have a casual heart-to-heart.

Getting around to Alizeh's side now, she leaned against the girl, letting her weight relax against her side as she slung one arm around her waist and mirrored Alizeh's gesture of a peace sign with the other. As she did, her bust brushed up against Alizeh's own with the motion of Sanae pulling herself closer, ccausing her to feel the warmth and softness of their close contact. "Alright, great! Hold that!" the director called, and a few more camera flashes followed. She did, however, blush a little harder as she felt Alizeh punch her shoulder, her cheeks flushing red as she cracked up with a short giggle. "Oh-! Thanks, really! A lot of people tell me I've got a natural talent for this...but still, don't sell yourself short, okay? I don't think I'd have ever wanted to put forth such an effort against you if you didn't give it your all too. I knew I wanted to reach your level."

Her eyes went a little wider when Alizeh went on to offer to tutor her. In fact, she let out a gasp as she looked toward Alizeh with a grin on her face, one that was inadvertently captured on the next photo. "Hmm...alright, we'll keep that one. It works," the director muttered with a shrug. But Sanae tuned him out - she was far too honored by the thought of training under Alizeh to let that matter. "Really!? You really mean it? Of course! I'd love to!"

Alizeh giggled softy at Sanae’s words as she spoke. The girl was definitrly heartfelt that was for sure, and Alizeh really appreciated it, as well as the other compliments the younger greenette bestowed on her. But Alizeh was always one to call it as she saw it. ”Haha trust me I ain’t selling myself short. That’s just how awesome you are. I’m just glad I could bring that out of ya.” Alizeh said with a smile down to the girl while squeezing jer shoulders gently as a gesture to show how serious she was.

Then as Sanae turned to her, obviously ecstatic at the offer, Alizeh would chuckle and wink at the girl. “Of course! I’d be happy to teach you a thing or two. Bet after a few lessons we’d be unstoppable.” Alizeh said deliberately using the word we instead of you. Implying the two as a unit. With another wink she brushed back some of Sanae’s hair just in time for another picture.

“Alright girls we’re gonna do something a bit different. Think of it as a... what if.” The director said as the snapping lights stopped. ”Sanae there seemed to be a lot of interest behind you nearly winning, so Alizeh lay down and Sanae pin her as if you were about to win, but try to add some... spice to it.” The director said, obviously having a bit of a lecherous look in his eyes at that last direction. Rolling her eyes slightly Alizeh didn’t oppose the idea. “Hehe reminds me of comic books.” Alizeh said removing her arm from Sanae’s shoulders, but smacking Sanae’s but once before turning and lowering herself on the floor, waiting for Sanae to get on top.
