Blink and You'll miss it! Hinoka vs Candice

[pikazard]

If Candice wasn't more concerned with the pain she was about to dish out to Hinoka she would definitely have given some choice words to the hecklers in the audience who laughed at her as she used the kendo stick to pull herself up. Candice intended to knock the redhead out right here and now, but Hinoka likely sensed the danger and rolled so that she would be struck in the back instead, leaving her with a nasty mark and a lot of pain "Ugh stop wriggling around, worm!"

To ensure that Hinoka would in fact stop moving Candice would roll her over so that she was lying on her front. She would then attempt to sit on Hinoka's back and slip the kendo stick under Hinoka's throat, making sure her position was secured. If Hinoka did not stop her then Candice would lift the stick up, pressing it against her throat and choking her while also wrenching her back in a make-shift camel clutch. Candice wanted nothing more right now than to hear Hinoka scream and beg.

Candice would have received a few more taunts if they weren't concerned about the next phase of the match. Hinoka dealt with a few shifty figures using weapons before, but they only ever used it as an object of fear so disarming them was a less than difficult endeavour, however a trained opponent who didn't cower from a single misstep was another story. "...Just a scratch!" ignoring Candice's orders and continuing to sway a little because of the recent kendo strike.

Like a teacher armed with a ruler, Hinoka was forced to comply and be forced onto her stomach. She gasped from the sudden weight lying on her back and even opened her mouth to let out some air. Just before Hinoka would attempt to buck the fellow wrestler away, the weapon was pressed against throat and grinded against her skin. It was somehow possible to make the redhead's voice sound even more gravelly according to the choking noises. Bodying being forced into a U-shape coupled by lack of oxygen, but she didn't want to surrender and instead shuffled to fight through. "Get off of me!" sounding almost unrecognisable by the throat. In the mean time, Hinoka slowly raised her legs vertically until they would hook Candice's shoulders. She then tried throwing the heel backwards and dislodge the kendo stick in the process.

Hinoka did not resist as Candice forced her into the hold, much to the delight of the heel. Candice wrenched back on Hinoka's neck with the kendo stick, choking the redhead while also stretching out her spine like a camel clutch. Hearing the choking noises coming from Hinoka's mouth put a smug smirk onto the face of Candice, satisfied that things were finally going her way again after Hinoka's significant lead from before. When Hinoka yelled at her to get off Candice would laugh and start to mockingly parrot her voice, not realising what the redhead was up to until it was too late "Get off of m-WAAAAH!!!"

With a high pitched scream of shock Candice was be thrown backwards off of Hinoka's back, dropping the stick in the process. Candice climbed up to a sitting position, cheeks burning slightly from the way she had screamed just now, and glared at the back of Hinoka's head. Choosing that as a target Candice would look to get up faster than Hinoka, and if she was able to she would start to run at Hinoka from behind. Assuming Hinoka had not turned around, Candice would jump up and try to stomp on the back of Hinoka's head, intending to introduce Hinoka's face to the floor in an extremely painful manner.

[SwordSavior1]

It was clear, this might be the first person in LAW that Hinoka genuinely disliked. The only thing more irritating would have been actually looking at Candice's face while the choke-camel clutch was applied. She felt like her body would split in half if any action wasn't enacted in time. The only move that seemed appropriate to deal with this sort of affair would be 'going with the flow' and stretching her own body. Therefore her concentration when it came to raising those legs was less affected at least until further taunts. This persuaded to throw Candice off with even more forced like an enraged mule.

However no matter how furious she was, Hinoka couldn't just shrug off being suffocated for at least a minute, so she remained on her knees and massaged the reddened part of her throat and simultaneously letting out coughs that sounded as if she was wheezing. Everyone was in suspense as it seemed only one wrestler was actively moving and that happened to be the unfavourite. "Look out!" a fan warned. This forced Hinoka to direct her attention to an oncoming threat. There was only one possible source so she twisted her lower body to perform a roll and barely avoid the stomp. She took a second to gaze at Candice's figure and thrusted her left leg slightly to potentially trip Candice over in a bid to buy time.

Candice charged at Hinoka, eyes zoomed in on the spot on the back of her head she was going to kick her. Her foot was raised and posed to strike, but at the last moment Hinoka would be able to roll out of the way thanks to a fan warning her of the danger. Candice grit her teeth in anger and turned towards the audience, pointing an accusing finger at the masses "Who said that!?! Which one of you dead motherfuckers said that!?!" Before Candice would get the answer she demanded, that she wasn't likely to get anyway, Hinoka would kick the back of the heel's leg, pushing it out from under her and causing her to fall back "Waaaah!!!"

Candice hit the ground with a thud, groaning in pain and holding her back. The ground outside the ring was padded, but it still hurt more than it would have if she'd fallen in the ring. Candice hissed and bared her teeth as she tried to soothe her aching back, glaring daggers at Hinoka. If looks could kill then Hinoka would be dead right now, but since they didn't Hinoka was just fine and had given herself plenty of options as to how she was going to take advantage of Candice's downed state.

[SwordSavior1]

Before her head could be pulverised into tomato soup, an unknown observer would direct Hinoka to safety. Not only she avoid harm, but managed to slip a counterattack only moments after. Both lied on the padded floor but Hinoka returned to a stand while still rubbing her neck. "I thank you stranger" giving the thumbs up not sure about who spoke in her defence. In case she better monitor the arena post-match in case Candice would take her wrath on some innocent bystander.

Directing her attention to the fallen body nearby and apron, a plan came to fruition. She picked the fellow fighter up and forced to bend while facing the ring, with Hinoka standing right in front. The redhead used her right head to reach behind for Candice's head, pulling it above her own shoulder for a three-quarter facelock. Once locked in, Hinoka ran towards the ring with the other wrestler being forced to follow. Assuming nothing would change her sense of direction, she hopped onto the apron's edge still holding onto Candice. A split second later, she would jump backwards , performing a little backflip in midair before finally landing face down driving the opponent back-first down to the mat finally forming a shiranui. Both of these wrestlers will get injured but one would definitely receive the worst of it.

Candice would writhe and struggle as Hinoka stood her up and forced her into a facelock, she fought fiercly to prevent her foe from doing what she wanted but in the end nothing she did would stop Hinoka from pulling her forward as she ran. Candice put all her focus on preparing to counter the move, clearly Hinoka was gunning for a bulldog, so Candice was prepared to counter it. What she wasn't prepared to counter was the move that actually came as Hinoka would jump off to edge of the apron and do a backflip, sending Candice falling back first onto the mat instead of falling forward onto her front like she had been expecting "Ahhhh!!!! Shit!!!"

Candice rolled on the mat in pain after taking that Shiranui, cursing Hinoka as she tried to soothe her injured back "You're gonna fucking pay for that." she would growl, grabbing onto the barricade and using it to pull herself up to her feet. She glared at Hinoka, her eyes betraying her violent intentions for the redhead. Despite that she would make no moves for now, in truth she still needed some time to recover from that blow but she wanted to try and intimidate Hinoka by making her think she didn't.

[SwordSavior1]

Hinoka did have minor difficulties putting her drawn out move into action as shown by Candice's initial struggling, but the facelock was sealed in anyway. A lone observer would have expected a classic bulldog, but Hinoka was looking to make a big step ahead in this match coupled with utilising more of her gifts. This succeeded as her opponent was left unprepared for the Shiranui leading to a massive pop from the crowd for they were just as shocked.

Due to not landing on the mat, it did take a minute for today's hero to stand up, thus allowing Candice to create some distance between the two. The redhead took a brief glimpse around and saw a few other weapons scattered outside. A folded table, ladder, trashcan and even some barbed wire. They really pulled the stops today, but those tools weren't to Hinoka's taste no matter how effective they could be. She was alerted by her opponent's call and the intimidation only goaded Hinoka into attacking. Finally with an upright posture, she simply walked up to her target and suddenly raised a leg for a simple toe kick towards Candice's midsection. Provided that she was bent over, Hinoka clutched the other woman's neck and dragged her along the arena floor towards the ring. It was time to return their bout to the mat. Will Candice be able to prevent herself being thrown through the middle ropes?

[pikazard]

Candice's attempt to play mind games with Hinoka didn't go well for her, instead of intimidating her it just spurred her on, leading her to walk over and force Candice to bend forward with a swift kick to the gut "Oooff!!" Hinoka would then grab Candice and start dragging her back to the ring. Just as they were stood by the ring apron Candice would let out a slight growl before winding her arm back and throwing an elbow at Hinoka's side. Assuming this hit she would throw another elbow before standing up straight and grabbing Hinoka by the back of the head, if she was able to do this she would attempt to push her head down so that her face smacked against the ring.

[SwordSavior1]

Intimidation would almost never scare Hinoka at best make her lose focus from anger. Strangely enough social situations were more unsettling in her eyes. Successfully striking Candice in the gut, Hinoka decided it be appropriate to take out the trash and move to an environment that she was more familiar with. Just as she was able to reel her opponent's body back, an arm flew into Hinoka's side and even pressing against the redhead's ribs. "Augh!" The shock kept her distracted long enough for the heel to turn the situation on its head literally. "Wait...hold it....AUGHHHHHHHHH!" she was unable to prevent her face being slammed into the apron. If Candice didn't support her body, then she would fall to the ring floor. Either way Hinoka was left vulnerable.
