Yuki Kazikura vs. Honoka Kobayashi

[CaptainL]

With a few more bucks and some well-placed twists of her spine, Yuki had managed to loosen the pressure on her just enough to make her move - and she threw herself forward, rolling out from beneath Honoka's weight. Even as the pink-haired girl tried to maintain her hold on her chin, Yuki had no trouble shaking it off before she straightened herself to her feet. She dusted herself off and looked around before her eyes settled back on her opponent - and Yuki soon assumed a defiant glance back at her, readying her next move while Honoka was down. While she might have had Yuki in a tricky situation a minute ago, she had no intention of Honoka getting off with the impression that she was at her mercy!

"Nice try," Yuki muttered, "but it's going to take more than that..." Hoping that Honoka wouldn't be fully straightened, Yuki swung around on one foot and kicked out with the other leg, aiming a knee into the side of Honoka's head!

[Devilish53]

Honoka had the advantage even after the clutch was broken, what with the simple fact that she didn't have any immediate agony to overcome and her positioning, and yet it was perhaps her slightly greater size, or perhaps more accurately the burdens her figure possessed, that made her rise near enough at the same time Yuki did. Or rather, attempt to rise, for the pinkette was not able to get much further than a single knee, with her hands raised for something of a lock-up given Yuki was standing with her as well. Before calamity struck.

Hit in quite the sweet spot, Honoka's eyes ever so briefly rolled at the impact to the side of her head! Body losing all strength and limbs flopping, as that massive knee strike to the side of her skull sent her flat to the ground! A moment passing, before a delayed splutter was heard from the now agonised pinkette!

[CaptainL]

For what it was worth, Yuki was agile and quick on her feet. She was all too aware that in a contrast of physical attributes, when placed next to Honoka it was clear where the two differed. But Yuki didn't want to let that fact keep her down, when there were plenty of other factors where she could shine. This was, after all, a wrestling match, not a beauty contest. She had righted herself just in time to get to her feet, even as Honoka was grounded - and she whipped back around, delivering her next strike straight into the pink-haired girl's skull!

Yuki completed her spin to rest on her feet, directly across from Honoka. She watched her fall limply to the ground. With her eyes narrowed, the brunette considered her next option. She could have gone for a pin, perhaps; Honoka looked like she was in the right position for one. But she grumbled to herself, and her brow furrowed. Somehow, Yuki couldn't help but feel like she could be doing so much more. She was frustrated, for whatever reason, and she still had to take that out on her opponent. That was why, instead, she ran for the ropes, attempting to get some alitutde with which to hit Honoka with an elbow drop as she sprung off!

[Devilish53]

Honoka was flat to the ground - had the match not been in the early stages, the referee might have motioned to the side, out of fear that the pinkette was completely out of it. After a single step forward however, she'd deem that mini-check up of hers to be adequate, as Honoka raised up an arm out of mere instinct, as if it was an attempt for the rest of her body to follow.

Sadly it would not be quite so easy for the stacked lightweight, as she simply rolled to her side with that arm jostling flat to the ground again. All the while Yuki made motions to continue punishing her, by first stepping to the ropes in quick fashion.

Barely resisting the urge to curl up and mewl, Honoka would instead look to try and force her top half up, in an attempt to rise. Naturally such an effort would be laid to waste, as Yuki finally returned to her. With momentum and then some, after near enough kicking off the ropes in order to leap up into the sky!

The result was a sharp as hell elbow coming down straight onto Honoka's torso - that raised top half of hers falling flat, as Yuki forced her back to square one with yet another massive yelp coming from the seemingly hopeless lightweight victim!

[CaptainL]

Honoka had began to rise, but unfortunately for her it was too little, too late. She wasn't able to fully get off the ground before Yuki was already descending on her, her elbow poised at the ready to make her landing - and it soon found its target, with the point of Yuki's arm burying itself into Honoka's pillowy bosom.

Even if the pink-haired girl might have had plenty of cushioning, Yuki could still hit hard - and Honoka would feel it, falling back down below her opponent. Even as she landed atop Honoka, though, Yuki grit her teeth, her brow narrowing in frustration. Somehow, she couldn't be satisfied. She needed to escalate things to even more drastic measures to prove her point. No one in the audience was going to question the capabilities of Yuki Kazikura, the girl who had faced the Lightweight Champion in a fast-paced and competitive bout. But Yuki herself had to make that same assurance to herself.

Without a moment to spare, Yuki rolled off of Honoka, taking her place on the mat beside her. Picking the prone girl's arm up, Yuki went to haul her up into a sitting position, where she would lock one arm into place behind her back and grabbed Honoka's jaw with the other. Leaning back, she would put on the pressure to force her into a seated crossface chickenwing hold!

[Devilish53]

Little was done from the small, busty pinkette as she recoiled in pain from that flying strike of Yuki's. Clutching where the arm had made contact, her legs would kick the canvas in pained fury, before she finally after what was a long moment, looked to roll onto her sides, in search of a rise.

Only as she did, she could not lock eyes with Yuki - for she was no longer in her field of vision! Registering what was transpiring far too late for her own good, Honoka turned her head just as Yuki's arm clutched at her. Her flapping arm easily grabbed, only a shriek was heard as Honoka was pulled back, blanketing the small lightweight with her warm, soft body. Before all at once, the pain came to her!

"AHHHHH...!" Honoka's voice went as high as it could, with her eyes shutting tight and feet kicking to the canvas this time without end! Body rocking left and right through her lively, energetic motions - ones given purely in the desire for freedom, as she looked to aggressively wiggle free!

[CaptainL]

While Honoka had recoiled in pain, she was forced to take her attention off the ring. And a moment Honoka wasn't watching her was a moment Yuki had to strike - and a moment she knew she couldn't waste. She darted behind the pink-haired girl, and just as Honoka began to roll to the side, Yuki got her by the arm and the chin alike, pulling her back into a position she could control.

Her teeth clenched and her eyes narrowed as Yuki tightened her grasp. She was determined now to prove herself by any means she could, and she wasn't going to give out, no matter how much her opponent fought against it. Yuki hissed under her breath; Honoka was writhing around quite a bit, and it was making it hard for her to hold on. She tried to ignore the softness and warmth of her body, with Honoka's spine pressed against a chest that, as Yuki was all too aware right now, did little to cushion it. No, Yuki told herself; she had to focus. She had to make it count.

But while Honoka's thrashing wasn't going to get her free directly, she was gaining ground. With each passing moment Yuki was finding it harder and harder to hold on, her strength draining from her and her grip steadily slipping as she tried to keep Honoka restrained. So too, Honoka was dragging herself across the ring, and soon she was tantalizingly close to the ropes...

[Devilish53]

Honoka may have wiggled free had she continued at it. Hell, she might have even reached the ropes, given the girl was akin to a bucking bronco, if in reverse given her 'rider' was below her. But the fact that Yuki was indeed below her gave her an idea, even if it were a desperate one.

With the colour fading in her cheeks, and her eyes struggling to stay open, Honoka had no choice but to bank on it.

"R...REF!" She'd cry out, in tandem with a strong push of her feet against the canvas. For the usually air-headed lightweight had a moment of clarity - her free hand pushing to the canvas alongside said push, as she looked to force all her weight back on Yuki's top half. And force her shoulders to be flat for a pin fall!

[CaptainL]

Yuki's teeth clenched and her eye twitched, as Honoka dragged herself closer and closer to the ropes. She was drawing on all her strength to try and secure the position, but there was only so long she could hold things for. The fatigue was beginning to set in, as her arms started to grow sore from the exertion, and the thrashing of Honoka's body atop her didn't make things any easier. Soon, Honoka was growing closer to the ropes - but rather than go for the rope break, her next move would take Yuki by surprise.

"Huh-!?" Yuki was baffled as to why Honoka would be calling for the ref just now, but it would be less than a second until she found out - as Honoka threw herself backward, bringing her upper body to bear against Yuki's and holding her shoulders to the mat! It was a clever move, making use of what was available to her, and one that Yuki would have commended if she wasn't the one at the mercy of it. But she was, and as the referee began to count, that was enough to remind the raven-haired girl of the position she was in.

"One! Two!"

Yuki's survival instincts kicked in, and she knew she would have to act. She clenched her teeth, shaking the cobwebs out of her head. Summoning all the strength, she flailed her limbs, going to kick her leg up in an attempt to shove Honoka off her!

[Devilish53]

It wasn't the most glorious means of escape, but close to passing out, Honoka hardly cared! Her arms still flailing as her legs did all the work, Honoka took the heftiest gulp of air she could given what little was provided to her, as she balanced her figure and pressed down as if her life depended on it. And it bared fruit!

Hearing the calls of the referee, Honoka even came damn close to winning there and then!

Only to feel Yuki's grip loosen up at the last second, with both sets of limbs from her foe coming to her back and side. To heave Honoka off her, as if she was a unwelcome blanket - sending the stacked pinkette into something of a roll before she stopped. And naturally, clutched her squeezed neck as tightly as she could, as if to soothe it!
