The agile pretty boy vs the queen of spears (Torra shinjiro vs jade urushi)

[torra shinjiro17]

Torra thought the kick would make her stop pulling his hair but no...... literally like 5 seconds later she began pulling his hair again, but even more painful. "Enough.... with.... that!" He used his free hand to grab her arm to make her stop. "I'm starting to think you have a thing for my hair...." he said as he kept at it Torra may not look like it but he has a iron grip when it comes to holds like this.

Her second hair pull attempt also ended in failure, and now Torra was grasping her arm to make it unusable for the time being. To make matters even worse, the ref admonished her for her cheap tactics, threatening to disqualify her immediately if she attempted to pull his hair again. It wouldn't matter, though, as Jade was practically at her wit's end by this point. She had no energy left to get out of this, and no other options to escape either.

She had done all she could, but now she was fading, and her eyes slowly closed. Her limbs went limp, and soon she was unmoving.

[torra shinjiro17]

Torra kept on squeezing more and more until he felt her go limb then he got on top of her for the ref to count 1 2 and 3. "Ok.... I got her." The ref helped Torra up and sat by jade to make sure she's still breathing and Torra sat on his corner waiting for her to wake up. "Whew.... that was too close, I was afraid that my hair pain would of gotten too overwhelming."

[FinyBoy]

Jade was completely spent after that choke out. Even if she had wanted to kick out, there was just no more fuel left in the tank. The ref counted to three, and the bell rang to signify the end of the round. Now, the score was all tied up at 1 apiece. This fall would decide who was going home the winner, and who would be the loser.

Jade would lay on the canvas and begin to wake up from her short nap. She knew what had happened. It was an unfortunate turn of events, but it was too late to change that now. She struggled up into a sitting position, continuing to take her time getting back to her corner. It was clear that she was in a bad way right now. If she started the next round like this, then she would most likely lose.

She needed a plan of attack, a strategy, something to get her into the advantage immediately. But how? What could she do in this state? Was she already doomed to fail? Maybe she should have just tapped out early and saved herself for the third fall? There were plenty of questions, but practically no answers.

She finally made it back to her corner after nearly a five minute waiting period. The crowd booed her for taking so long, but their approval was hardly very high on her bucket list. She did what she needed to do to win. Spending this time recovering was crucial to that. Now, and she leaned into her corner, she looked across the ring to her opponent. She needed to make a decisive strike right away. That was the only way she was going to pull this off...

Score: 1-1 Tied

[torra shinjiro17]

Torra and jade circled each other, both looking for a way to attack first, but Torra wanted to say something. "Hey before we finish this, there's something I want to say, after fighting you so far, I'm fascinated but also shocked by you, your a skilled fighter and you value honor and was disgusted by my actions.... but I'm kinda disgusted by you too, you were willing to throw away your honor just so you could win? I may not be as skilled as you and i may not know honor that much but I never went in for a cheap blow, I didn't punch you in the crotch, or chest area, or even pull your hair, but no you almost got disqualified cause winning is everything. I feel sorry for you cause winning isn't everything, I fight cause I enjoy it, i like pushing myself and finding new people as I fight you should let loose and enjoy life and the people you meet every now and then. Well that's all I have to say, lets continue" he said as he got into a stance, also during this whole match he couldnt help but stare at her well toned legs, hopefully she didn't notice.

[FinyBoy]

Jade sighed as he told her of his opinion of her.

"Perhaps you may be right. However, you do not understand me, nor could you hope to. I do value honor, but I value the honor of my trainers and predecessors more. Perhaps that sounds the same to you, but it is not to me. I do not expect you to understand. You have your values, and I have mine. My actions speak for my values, and I have no intention of wavering in them. How you view them is ill concern to me."

She was not much for long speeches, but this was giving her valuable recovery time. She took what she could get.

Jade did not notice Torra's glace down at her legs, but it wouldn't matter soon. She knew from the first round how weak he was to them, she she was planning to take full advantage of that in this round.

As soon as the bell rang, she sprinted up to him. She wasn't playing around this time. She pushed off the ground with her feet, intending to catch him in a head scissor from a standing position!

[torra shinjiro17]

Torra listened to everything she had to say. *hm I just remind myself to never become someone like her, ever* he thought to himself as the bell rang, but before he could do anything she ran at him and pushes him down with her feet, but before he could fall down she had him in a standing head scissor.

This made torra blush deeply and he runs his hands at her legs, trying to break free.

[FinyBoy]

Jade's legs wrapped around his neck as she locked them into place. Naturally, he tried to fight out of the hold, but he would have to do so on the ground. Once Jade secured her grip, she shifted her body weight to pull him down to the canvas. Should she be successful, she would tighten her grip around his neck.

As before, she would make no taunting remarks towards him. She simply focused on the move she was executing. It seemed as though she was honorable to some degree, but clearly abided by her own definition of honor. What that entailed was not something anyone else in this arena would know.

[torra shinjiro17]

Torra kept on trying to escape, but soon enough his struggles died down when she moved down with him, tighting her grip on him. All Torra could do now was run his hands on her legs like he was massaging them.

[FinyBoy]

As Jade brought her opponent down to the mat, she continued to clap down on his neck and head. She was determined to end this quickly, and she was in prime position to do it! She wasn't happy that she couldn't use her favored spear to end the bout, but winning was more important right now. She held on to the grip, as it seemed as though Torra was weakening with every second.
