Who's the Most Sadistic of Them All? The Rose vs. Cecilia Lombard

[overlordofkings]

For the briefest of moments, Rose wasn’t sure what was worse. Having her neck crushed by the arrogant silvered woman or Cecilia’s brash, overbearing taunts. The thought barely entered her head when Cecilia decided to make Rose’s life worse by adding a stomach claw!

"Yeah... this much worse," The Rose sardonically thought, still screaming... well, it was more like gurgling. In any case, it was very painful and the ex-vigilante knew she had to do something to counter it as the silver haired woman clamped down harder against Rose's torso.

In a move born out of desperation, the Rose used her own impressive capabilities to lift her right leg, and using her best guess as to where Cecilia's head was, attempted to strike her knee into her antagonist's head!

"Heheh..." The crowd was aghast at such a display of brutality from Cecilia, but she didn't care either way. She tossed her head back and forth, letting her side ponytail swing in an arc along with her. She turned her attention back down to Rose with a sly smile on her face, as she dug her fingers further into the flesh of her stomach. "Oh, I'm sure you'd have some plenty entertaining screams from this," she taunted, "if only we could hear them...but I'm not letting you go that easily, so don't get your hopes up." Just to make things all the more unpleasant for her victim, Cecilia squeezed her thighs a little tighter, putting down even more pressure.

As far as Cecilia was concerned, there was no way Rose was getting out of this. And yet, the masked wrestler had another trick up her sleeve! She looked up with a gasp to see Rose lifting her leg upward, even as she had to brace herself on one foot to do so. Rose was willing to fight against gravity itself if it meant getting back at Cecilia! "What-!?" she gasped, her mouth dropping open into a gape. She could hardly believe that Rose would be capable of such a thing - right until she received the ultimate proof, as, with a thud, Rose's knee crashed into her skull! Cecilia let go of her as she let out a scream, her hands shooting up to clutch at her temples as she fell back on her ass. The crowd, too, erupted into cheers, impressed by the degree of strength and flexibility Rose had displayed!

[overlordofkings]

"URK!" Rose gurgled as Cecilia increased the pressure of the lock. But her grimace soon formed into an awkward smile as she felt her knee meet Cecilia's face. The silver haired girl was forced to relinquish Rose as she fell back.

The ex-vigilante grunted as she knelt, taking in precious air as she rolled away after kneeing Cecilia. Despite the twinges of pain from the dual headscissor, stomach claw hold, the sadistic redhead smirked. The feeling of relief that came over when the Rose escaped Cecilia's hold was nothing compared to the euphoria of shutting the braggart up. It seemed the crowd agreed too, as the redhead heard cheers. Not that Rose cared. All she wanted to do was to put Cecilia in her place.

Once the Rose got her bearings, she would then turn towards Cecilia. "I'll admit, that wasn't entirely terrible," Rose would tell Cecilia in a faux compliment. "Too bad for you that you still screwed up." and with that, Rose would charge at Cecilia as she recovered and would once again jut out her knee in an attempt to knee Cecilia's face a second time!

[CaptainL]

Taking the blow to the face, Cecilia was at last forced to let go of Rose as she fell back, knocked off her feet. Her hand went up to her head, rubbing at her face to try and dull the pain - but when she looked back up towards her foe, through her fingers, her eyes were narrowed in a glare and her teeth were bared in a grimace. Rose might have had plenty of tricks up her sleeve, she saw - but the last thing Cecilia wanted was to be at the wrong end of them! If Rose wanted to show her up, in front of the crowd that was now cheering on the redhead's every move...then Cecilia just had her work cut out for her. She would need to show Rose, and all of her fans, just how wrong they were.

Looking up from where she had fallen, Cecilia addressed Rose as she taunted her. Even being called "not entirely terrible" did little to temper her rage, as Cecilia tossed her head back and forth, looking to loosen up. Even as she came back to her senses, however, Cecilia didn't move from where she was sitting. The reasons why would soon become apparent.

As Rose came charging towards her, Cecilia pushed her palms against the canvas, looking to roll herself forward, and aiming to go right between Rose's legs to dodge her knee and to get behind her. If all went well, she would send Rose into the ropes off the momentum of her charge. "Oh? And I suppose you screwed that up. Something about people living in glass houses, don't you think?"

[overlordofkings]

As the Rose charged at Cecilia, a malevolent smirk on her face. However, right before she can slam her knee against her grey haired foe once more, Cecilia unexpectedly somersaulted between the ex-vigilante's legs. The redhead bore a shocked countenance for a split second as she nearly tripped from having to turn and bounce off the ropes. She hadn't expected Cecilia to be this agile.

Rose's expression turned stoic as she rebound from the ropes, and ran towards Cecilia once more. And right before she got to Cecilia, she would attempt to leap and place her left foot on Cecilia's right thigh and say, "I can't say I'm familiar with that one." and if everything went right, Rose would pull up her right leg to kick Cecilia in the back of her head in a running enzguri!

"But I don't remember some saying about lemons and lemonade," she'd taunt with a smirk.

[CaptainL]

Cecilia was confident that she had managed to secure the advantage, as she rolled between Rose's legs to get out of the way of her strike. As she looked up from the ground, a sinister grin lit up across her face, as she slowly raised her head from where she was facing the floor to stare straight ahead at her opponent. With a chuckle, Cecilia tossed her ponytail back over her shoulder, baring her teeth to Rose.

She expected that if reversing Rose's move on her wouldn't be enough to demoralize her red-headed foe, her mind games would definitely make her falter. But Rose shone through both of those things; she was perfectly willing to adapt on the fly, and she was ready to prove that to Cecilia! As she looked up to see Rose coming barreling back toward her, her expression changed from one of smug superiority to shock as Rose was undeterred - and as she proceeded to swing around, delivering a powerful blow to the back of Cecilia's head! Coughing and sputtering, the silver-haired heel dropped onto her hands and knees, the impact having dazed her!

[overlordofkings]

In her former life, Rose had been a fan of classical music. She loved listening to the greats of Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. And yet, the music all of these artists made paled in comparison of the sound of her foot hitting Cecilia's skull. The redhead's evil smirk grew as she heard Cecilia cough and sputter when as she got up and stood before her silver haired foe.

The redhead put her heads on her hips, as though she were a mother scolding her child and then attempted to place her right foot under Cecilia's chin, expertly balancing herself on her left leg. If this went off without a hitch, she'd then take in the delightful sight as she'd say, "What? No more proverbs? No more bravado?"

And if she was able to get this taunt off, she'd take her foot off Cecilia's chin and swing it to side before bringing it back to smash her sole on Cecilia's cheek in a brutal roundhouse!

[CaptainL]

Cecilia usually had some sort of quip or one-liner to taunt her opponents with. She lived for seeing her foes broken down before her eyes, and to grind the lesson into their skulls until they knew, once and for all, that she was no one they would want to trifle with. And yet, there were some moments when Ceclia found herself so blinded by rage and the desire for retribution that she had no talking to be done, save for what she could do with her fists. This was one of such occasions, as she prepared to strike back and to lay Rose low...

But she was a little too late for that, as, still recovering from the crippling blow she had taken, Cecilia was unprepared for the next trick in her opponent's arsenal! She was taken to the ground by the blow to her head, falling to the ground, as Rose got into a position to taunt Cecilia from where she stood. Cecilia hated being humbled in this way, against an opponent who had no business in saying such things to her. "Shut...up..." came her response, tempered by her frustration, but still making her feelings towards Rose quite clear; her sentiment could hardly be called a charitable one!

Rose took her foot out from under Cecilia's chin, going to swing it to connect with her opponent's head once again. This time, though, Cecilia intended to be ready for her. Seeing that Rose had already taken one foot off the ground, the silver-haired woman intended to target her balance by moving to grab her leg as it came near her again! If she could pull that off, Cecilia next intended to take Rose to the ground in a dragon screw, whipping her off her feet!

[overlordofkings]

The sight of her silver haired foe at a loss for words (well, relatively speaking) was something at the Rose would rank up against any sunset. Smirking as she withdrew her foot from Cecilia's for what looked like to be the final blow of the match. "Why don't you make-" Rose began as she was about to bring down her foot.

..Only for Cecilia to catch it!

"...Me?" The redhead haplessly finished as Cecilia then spun in the air, forcing Rose to do the very same and land painfully on her right leg. "AARRRGGGGHHH!" The ex-vigilante cried as she clutched her right leg in an attempt to alleviate the pain.

[CaptainL]

Cecilia was sore, and even her fury and desire to show up her opponent wouldn't abate the dizziness she was feeling now. Rose was a hard hitter, and taking blows to the head never did anyone any favors. She knew that if she took another strike to the head, her chances of recovering, let alone winning this match, wouldn't be good ones. Instead, she needed to avoid it - and, in the process, to turn things back against her masked foe!

"Oh, I will, all right..." Cecilia snapped in response to Rose's challenge, as she caught her foot before it could land, proceeding to kick up from her place on the ground and hurl Rose against the canvas! The mats shook under the combined impact of the two women, but Cecilia wasted no time in pushing herself back up to her feet. Against an opponent like the Rose, she couldn't afford to.

Bending down with a snarl, Cecilia went to grasp Rose by the hair, attempting to shove her forward so that she would land on her face. "But then again...we might as well get to hear you beg for mercy." Cecilia would then move in closer to stand above her foe, going to grab for her legs and bend them towards her as she bent at the knees to apply pressure in a reverse Boston Crab!
