Japan vs England! Chika Igarashi vs Chelsea Forster

[Vc0m]

The count was on, and Chika had a bit of time to put the hurt on Chelsea! Picking the woman up by her hair, the Raven Knight would wrap her arms around Chelsea's torso:

"<Ready to go on a ride?>", Chika would ask in her native language, as she lifted her foe up into the air, and aimed to bring her right back down on her neck, shoulders and back, executing a perfect backdrop on the outside floor of the ring!

"Four! Five!", the referee would shout, her count continuing...

[CaptainL]

For Chelsea, everything was a blur. Going out of the ring was one thing, spilling out onto the unforgiving floor was another - but having Chika come crashing down on top of her with a high-flying, hard-hitting moonsault was enough to scramble her senses and leave her head spinning faster than she could possibly hope to calm down! She crumpled below her opponent, her breaths coming in ragged pants as she tried to draw the air back into her lungs, but she looked up with her eyes glazed over, unable to focus.

Certainly she didn't see Chika's tactics coming as the Raven Knight grabbed her by the hair, dragging her back to her feet with a hiss as she winced from the pain in her scalp and stumbled over to her side. By the time Chika was getting her arms around Chelsea's waist, the Englishwoman was starting to realize what was going on, but by that time it was too late! She looked down just in time to see herself hurtling toward the floor, and the backdrop landed so hard her spine buckled, her body practically hopping off the ground from the force of the collision!

"Six! Seven!" The referee's count continued, undeterred by the action that was erupting outside the ring. The crowd, though, were just left wondering how Chelsea was going to get out of this!

One person who was left wondering just as much, as a matter of fact, was Molly Forster. She saw that her sister was in a difficult situation - and she wasn't going to stand by it! Now that they had gone outside of the ring, no one could stop her, and she came running up to the action, looking to tackle Chika off of Chelsea!

[Vc0m]

With Chika doing a solid bit of damage to Chelsea on the outside of the ring, and the count from the ref getting into critical numbers, Chika would once again pick up her English rival off the floor by her hair, planning to shove her back into the ring to do further punishment on the woman there...

...but, just as the ref turned to see the ringkeeper send some message to her via signs, Chelsea's sister would strike. Molly would shove the Raven Knight off her sister to protect her and get her an advantage!

"Ooof! Why you...", Chika would growl as she got back up to her feet, planning to give Molly a little bit of retribution for inserting herself into the match.

[CaptainL]

Once again, Chelsea felt herself being raised painfully to her feet. Chika might have been looking to get her back into the ring, but doubtlessly that wasn't going to end her dominant streak. Chika had the Englishwoman where she wanted her, and as long as Chelsea was still dazed from her collision with the outside floor - something that didn't seem to be wearing off any time soon - the Japanese lightweight would have free reign to do as she pleased, without even the threat of a disqualification by count-out to worry over. It looked like there was no hope for her to make a recovery - by herself, at least!

But what Chelsea had on her side was a manager, one who happened to be versed in wrestling herself, and who was as loyal to Chelsea as their familial ties would suggest. Chika wouldn't even see it coming as Molly came charging in, slamming straight into the Raven Knight with a spear that forced her and Chelsea apart!

Freed from Chika's grip, Chelsea fell back against the ring apron, shaking herself out as she caught her breath. "You go back in," Molly said, "I'll take things from here!" With a nod, Chelsea, still groggy from the backdrop but in a considerably better place than she would be otherwise, rolled through the ropes to take her place in the ring. As she braced herself in the corner, she smirked to herself, pleased with how things were turning out. With Chika distracted with Molly, she would have some time to herself to recover...

[Vc0m]

"Mghhhh..."

Chika groaned as the air was still out of her lungs after the powerful spear from Molly. She slowly came back up to her feet as the referee, who simply assumed Chelsea countered Chika, would continue the count: "EIGHT!"

The Raven Knight would be quickly back up to her feet. She turned to Molly, eyes blazing with anger: "I am going to...", she let slip in English, forgetting the little joke she was pulling on Chelsea earlier...right as the ref's voice let out:

"NINE!"

"Urgh..."

The retribution against Molly would have to wait till later, Chika realized. She was not losing this by count out. Paying little attention to the manager, she dove back into the ring with little thought - perfect opportunity for Chelsea to strike!

[CaptainL]

Chelsea was still centering herself after the beatdown Chika had unleashed on her, but Molly had bought her some time, and soon she looked up from where she was resting against the ropes. She glanced back at the referee and noticed the count was still going - something that pleased her, knowing that the officials didn't suspect a thing. A smirk briefly came to her as she stood up straight, prepared for her next move.

At the same time, Chelsea could have sworn she heard someone say something, and it didn't sound like Molly. "Eh..?" she turned in that direction, confused as to where it could be coming from - but she soon shrugged it off. It wasn't enough to distract Chelsea from the fact that the match was still going on - and that right now, Chika was about to dive back into the ring!

Chelsea was ready for her then - and she wasn't going to pass up an opportunity when she saw one! Just as Chika came through the ropes, the blonde swung her foot out in front of her, aiming to connect with a boot straight into the Raven Knight's face before she could rise! If that hit, Chelsea would storm closer, jabbing a finger down toward her opponent. "Oi! Dun ye go thinkin' I'm through wi' ye, like! I'm not done 'ere!"

[Vc0m]

The moment Chika entered the ring...she got a face full of Chelsea's boots, the English Englishwoman successfully kicking the Joshi into the ropes!

"GUAGH!", she cried out as she was forced back against the ropes, sitting as she tried to shake the daze from her eyes. The kick got her good...so good that she was seeing double of the blonde when she looked at her, unable to discern what she was saying...

[CaptainL]

Chika might have stepped back through the ropes, but she wouldn't go unhassled for long. Chelsea had waited for the precise moment at which to strike - as soon as Chika had recentered herself on solid ground, she would be greeted by a swift boot to the face! Many of the fans shuddered at the thought of how much it must have hurt to take a kick head-on from an irate Chelsea. Chika certainly didn't seem to be handling it well, as she had fallen against the ropes stunned. All the better for what Chelsea had in mind.

Storming closer to her opponent, Chelsea reached in to grab a handful of Chika's hair, violently pulling her off the ropes. Not giving her a chance to rest, she would turn and whip Chika across the ring, throwing her toward the corner. Chelsea only looked back over her shoulder long enough to confirm if Chika had landed - if she had, she would next glare back toward the crowd, shouting for their attention.

"Listen up, yous 'alf-wit wankers! You're gon'ter keep cheerin' 'er and grovelin' at 'er feet, like? You're gon'ter act like she's de best around? Before she's even done anythin' worth a damn? Well, FOOK dat! I'll show yous lot de way I feel about 'er..."

To the predictable chants expressing the fans' confusion, Molly addressed the crowd. "She says she doesn't have faith that Chika's worthy of praise, and wants to say what she thinks of her!"

[Vc0m]

This was a very western, quite villainous strategy - getting yourself chased inside of the ring, while attacking the foe entering it. This strategy slowly went out of style, as people caught on to it...but in Chelsea's and Molly's case, the two of them managed to turn Chika's opportunity of beating down her foe outside of the ring on it's head, forcing her to come back swiftly, or lose the match.

Chika was paying for that now, being booted in the face and violently hair whipped towards the corner, Cheslea successfully manhandling her as she regained control of the match...and got a moment to speak. Chika's pounding headache from multiple blows to her head now caused her to barely hear Molly's translation of her sister's thick accent.

[CaptainL]

Chelsea looked back over her shoulder, and her face lit up with a smirk. Chika still hadn't moved. Chelsea's strike had knocked her better sense out of her, and she had been laid against the corner stunned - and wide open for what she was about to do. All the frustration the blonde had endured in order to get to this point was about to be vindicated - now, she had Chika right where she wanted her.

"Yeah, that's rite!" she barked, now addressing Chika herself. She was convinced the Raven Knight couldn't understand her, but she didn't care - this was more of a power trip for her than anything else. "Ye think you're gon'ter be so serious, like? Maybe it's time ye got knocked down a peg 'er two!"

"She thinks Chika's too serious, and wants to humble her," Molly began to explain - but it would hardly be needed. Chelsea's intentions came across perfectly clear in her actions - she grabbed the ropes to either side of her, and, in a move designed to put her disrespect for her opponent on full display, she leaned in backward, pushing her behind right up against her foe's head to perform a stinkface! With a grin, she ground her hips back and forth, wedging her foe's head even further between her rear and the turnbuckles!
