Miranda Tomi vs Rosie Knuckles

[Fairy Dragon]

Mira was actually in control and loving it. Showing her mentor that she could go in the ring just like she needed to, not that Rosie seemed to be a fan but who would like getting beat up even if it was to help someone? Still she felt her leg being grabbed and Rosie trying to pull her down, Mira had a moment of panic as she lost her balance before she would try and rectify that by suddenly jumping and looking to bring her leg down with a leg drop onto rose as well rather then let her successfully upend her.

"Still..sure about that." Mira asked though if her move hit Rosie wouldnt be able to answer for the moment. But Mira wouldnt stop there and instead go for a pin after the leg drop. Placing her chest down on Rosie and attempting to lift her leg up for the ref to see that she was down and start counting the pin.

Rosie had made increasingly more desperate attempts, the last one included. While her tug had managed to offset Miranda, she pulled her fist back as she saw the rather erratic way that the girl was coming at her. Before she knew it, Tomi's leg was coming right down on the Pink-Haired Pugilist, landing and taking her right back onto the mat!

Landing hard, Knuckles let out a yell as she was sandwiched back to the mat, and she heard the retort of Mira and felt her body go over top of her and her leg hooked now. She was going for the pin, and Rosie was still smarting from the current onslaught from the now gutsy Mira Tomi.

"ONE!"

"TWO!"

"TH--"

Rosie shot her should her, using enough force behind her to flop over onto her front! Burying her face in one of her arms, she grimaced on the mat. She was trying to teach Mira a valuable lesson, but it was quickly coming back at her hard. At the same time, deep down, Knuckles was very satisfied that Miranda was coming back at her like she was. She always did love a good challenge, even if she had to pry it out of the girl at this point. But she hated losing, and she wasn't done quite yet.

[Fairy Dragon]

The pinfall was so close and Mira thought she might have had it, but she wouldnt have been someone Mira sought to get help from if she was going to be stopped like that. Rosie's kickout emphasized that she still had a lot of fight left and wasnt going to be taken down anytime soon. But that just meant she would have to show her more of what she could do to bring her down.

"Yeah guess someone tough like you wasnt going to go down like that. Alright, well maybe this can help keep you down." Mira said before she would attempt to throw a kick to Rosie's side before moving to try and press down on her back, then grab her arms to pull back on. "Or at least make it harder for you to get back up." She added pulling on Rosie's arms and stretching her out.

[Dubski]

Rosie had opted to simply lay there for now. She had just gotten out of the pin and probably could have used the breather, frankly. Eventually, she began to pull herself up off the mat, only to be kicked in the side, making her topple back over with a frustrated grunt. "Yeah, someone as tough as me is going to tear your head off in five se--Yow!"

The brawler then had her arms taken, and as she tried to fight herself free, she felt a boot in her spine! With an even louder yell, most of it coming from frustration as she felt her body bend way more than it was used to, her small but tough body on the mat, kicking her feet as she tried to thrash her away out of the hold, Rosie Knuckles could only think to keep running her mouth. "You damn wuss... You can't even face me like a real woman! Just like you to be too scared to get in my face!" taunted the pig-tailed pugilist, continuing her thrashing, hoping maybe her insults could trigger something else in Mira right now!

[Fairy Dragon]

5 seconds later and she was still not getting her ass kicked despite Rosie's declaration and because she knew that she had her for at least a minute. Watching the cute pink haired bruiser struggle in the hold Mira was smiling and actually feeling pretty good all throughout until Rosie suddenly accused her of being a coward about not facing her directly. That managed to give her pause before she wondered if this was part of her testing. Deciding to act on it just a little she would ease up and let her go.

"Wuss? This wuss brought you down there before, Ill do so again. Dont think so then get up and let me show you again!" Mira would say grabbing Rosie and forcing her up to her feet. Risky? probably but this match was as much about showing Rosie she meant business as it was about winning.

[Dubski]

The brawler writhed on the mat in the hold until it seemed like Mira Tomi had finally started to relent. With a gasp of relief, Rosie felt all of the pressure leave her as she flopped back onto the mat entirely, releasing an annoyed groan and moved an arm to her spine. She didn't get a lot of time to recover though. Mira had taken her taunts to heart and was grabbing her by the head to bring her back up to her feet. Wincing from the pain it took to even stand upright at this point, Knuckles looked like she might fall right back over again.

"Maybe you aren't a little chicken shit..." muttered Rosie on bow legs, flashing a quick smirk. And then, even quicker, she would then fire with a surprise headbutt towards Mira's nose, hoping she could hit her hard enough that she could buy herself time. If she could nail that, she would then turn slightly and attempt to hit her with a quick follow-up side elbow strike as well to knock her down! Rosie had some slick tricks up her sleeves, and regardless of the outcome, she would immediately collapse back down to her knees, the exertion enough forcing her to take a breather. She just needed to hope that Mira had let her guard down enough to fall for it.

[Fairy Dragon]

Mira was blissfully unaware of the constant conflicting interests of Rosie, she knew she shouldn't be focused on what she said so much if it wasnt outright advice but she felt she could handle whatever Rosie tried. For a moment she thought she got something of an actual compliment from her but before she could actually make anything of it Rosie threw her head forward and bashed it against Mira's skull.

"Haagk!" Miranda screamed backing up from Rosie as her arms came up in some rather flimsy defense of herself before Rosie tried to knock her down with another hit that her arms took the brunt of. Regardless Mira was still in a daze and even seeing Rosie lower herself took some time to really process. "Geez...You dont mess around do you.." She muttered before trying to get closer to her opponent again, being cautious.

[Dubski]

Rosie's headbutt had hit Miranda rather hard. She had become practiced at making sure how to nail it just right, fortunately. But less fortunate for her was her not having the energy for her swift elbow strike which backed Tomi up as she blocked it. The pink-haired fighter, however, had already collapsed to her knees and nodded. The pain in her back was stinging. The rest of her body throbbed from the rest of the punishment she took in the match. As she used one hand to prop herself up, she heard what Tomi had said to her while she grabbed hold of one of her ribbons on her pigtails and yanked it out. "Nope..." was the only response she got immediately as she took out the other ribbon, allowing her hair to fall in tangled curls behind her head.

With effort, she brought herself back to her feet. "But I'm going to knock you the fuck out," said Rosie, giving Mira a rather cold look. "Because I couldn't live with myself if I let a loser like you beat me!" And with that, Knuckles would then rush directly at Miranda, attempting to grab her and then run her back into the nearest turnbuckle, finding her own second burst of adrenaline. She wanted to get Miranda in the corner so she could try taking control of this fight again.

[Fairy Dragon]

Mira knew she was being pushed to get her angry, it was part of what Rosie's strategy was making up to this point, and yet her anger was still boiling especially because she was stopped by a desperate headbutt, her head a bit dazed while Rosie was getting ribbons out of her hair before rushing her she took a step back but was pushed the rest of the way.

"Yaaggh!" Mira screamed slowly driven back until she hit the corner back first, trapping her before she had a chance to counter. She would try to push back but after the abrupt collision she was for the moment lacking in any real power.

[Dubski]

Rosie's second wind had given her the strength she needed to pick up and ram Miranda square into the corner! Rosie wouldn't let up after that. She couldn't. "Take it!" yelled Rosie in the brief moment she allowed herself to prepare for yet another onslaught on Tomi.

She would then rear back and then attempt to jam her shoulder straight into her brunette opponent's midsection repeatedly, trying to completely wind her and hurt her already battered belly further. It was Knuckles' hope that if she could keep her hard of breathing, Miranda couldn't really back. And while she had her in the corner, it was the perfect opportunity to keep her to get her licks in now!
