Roni Mancini vs. Aka-Oni

[Dubski]

After Roni shoved Shizuka away, the girl had seemingly backed off. She snarled as she looked up, glaring at the demon girl as her head was ringing from the punches! The Hitwoman stood back up after a moment and looked like she was ready to rip Shizuka's head off. "Oh, you're going to wish you just laid down and took your loss now, you cosplaying little twerp!" bellowed Mancini as she began to stomp her way towards her smaller opponent.

She would then move forward a little quicker and then throw a punch towards Shizuka's face, attempting to just slug her right in the jaw. No fanfare or anything--just an angry Italian powerhouse wanting to clobber her opponent!

[Arjuna]

Slowly recovering, Shizuka looked at the direction of her opponent, who seemed to be really angry at her for obvious reason. The red demon was hoping that her opponent would in turn become reckless due to her anger, which would be something that she could take advantage of. Preparing herself for her opponent, she would keep watching before releasing the rope.

Shizuka saw Roni closing in quickly, and when she saw the punch coming, the Aka Oni would try to duck under her punch, hoping to avoid being struck by her opponent. In turn, she would try to bring her hands onto Roni's legs, trying to pull them from under her so that she could fall backwards, hitting the mat with her back.

[Dubski]

Roni swung and missed, her punch whiffing because her smaller opponent was speedy enough to avoid the reckless strike! The Hitwoman nearly fell forward after throwing her weight into the punch and missing, but caught herself! "You little...!"

Then Roni let out a yell, her legs getting swept out from under her from the quick maneuvers of Shizuka! Mancini fell on her back, letting out a loud groan! Taking a moment to recover, she would leave herself open to Aka-Oni to follow up!

[Arjuna]

Shizuka's plan worked as she managed to get Roni onto her back by pulling her legs from under her. Grinning triumphantly, she would throw a fist into the air and shouted to the crowd. "Yoshaa!!!" The crowd cheered for the Aka Oni, wanting her to win against the powerful opponent such as Roni.

With her opponent now on her back, Shizuka would try to take advantage of this. She would first stand next to Roni before running towards the ropes at the side. After rebounding from them, she would return back to where Roni was laid out before leaping up, performing a flip into the air before attempting to land right onto her own back, on top of Roni with a running senton!

[Dubski]

The Hitwoman is as left reeling on her back, becoming increasingly more furious as Shizuka was already on the move. She wasn't sure what the girl was doing, nor did she care. She just wanted to kill that runt right now. Before she could get up, though, she felt the full wait of Aka Oni land on top of her vulnerable midsection with that senton!

With a loud gasp, Roni Mancini's body curled up and went slack, as she broke into a fit of coughing and groaning, laying on her back with her hands on her wounded belly.

[Arjuna]

Perfectly executing the running senton, Shizuka landed on top of Roni's body, leaving her opponent wheezing and winded. Seeing this opportunity, the Aka-Oni would try to take this advantage by keeping her own self on top of her opponent, reaching out to one of her legs, hooking it with her arm. As she placed herself on top of her opponent, she saw the referee coming over.

Getting next to both Shizuka and Roni, the referee would get on her knees and start counting for the pin. While winning this match at this point might be a stretch, at the very least it would give enough pressure to her opponent, increasing her chance to win in this match.

"ONE!"

[Dubski]

With Roni Mancini left struggling for breath from the senton, she was shocked when Shizuka went for the pin. Her eyes shot open as the referee began her count.

"One!"

"Tw--"

The Hitwoman, with a yell of exertion, would then kick out with authority, shoving Shizuka up and away from her. Her face became a deep red and her teeth were barred as she sat up, holding her midsection as she glared at the demon girl and took in a deep breath before yelling out, "You are DONE! You hear me!?" She bellowed the words, furious and ready to absolutely obliterate the girl, if given the opportunity.

[Arjuna]

Shizuka didn't expect much from the pin, though at the very least that should show it to her opponent and everyone else in this arena that the red demon had it in her to win this match. Still, as expected, Roni kicked out at two, which meant the match was still far from over. And it was clear that Roni didn't take it kindly to this pinfall attempt, as evidenced by her words after she shoved Shizuka off of her.

"You're taking this way too personally, you know that?" Shizuka snarked as she would rise back up onto her feet. Roni seemed to be extremely angry at her, which was actually fair, though she didn't have to be an absolutely jerk about it. She would step away from Roni, distancing herself from her as she would prepare herself for her next move. She didn't mean to give Roni a space to recover, it's just that she needed to pull out everything in her disposal in order to take her opponent down.

[Dubski]

Roni took the time to recover that Shizuka had inadvertantly given her, growling out loud at her retort. The purple-haired Hitwoman stood up and held an arm around her waist and shouted, "I'm going to personally take your god damn head as a trophy, how does that sound?"

Mancini would then go at Shizuka with a sudden burst of energy from outright fury. The Italian would try to pick up Aka-Oni and then hoist her up in an STO Backbreaker, known as the Shakedown! Roni wanted to break her in half, and this would certainly be the start of it if she nailed the move.

[Arjuna]

Shizuka was taken aback by the fury displayed by her opponent, and this allowed her opponent to catch her off-guard by hitting her with an STO backbreaker. The red demon got no time to react, and when she knew it, she felt sharp pain on her back thanks to her opponent's move. All she could manage was a pained cry as she registered the pain from being struck by Roni's move.

"UAGH!!!"

Shizuka thought that after getting her chance to turn things around in her favor meant that she could continue with her momentum, but now, her hope to keep things up was dashed after she was struck by Roni's attack. She showed an pained expression on her face after taking the hit, and now, she was left vulnerable before her opponent, who was calling for her blood.
