The Heartbreakers vs The Flying Cherry Bombs - 3 on 3 Tag Team Match

[TheSuitedOwl]

For Rabbit there was nothing like feeling the wind press against her skin. Be it from a run, a jump, or a fall its cool breeze always calmed her. She never knew why but as she soared high above the ring aiming a kick at Kyoko. She couldn't feel more at peace, this was her home and it all crashed and burned when her boot slammed into Kyoko's head! Though Rabbit wouldn't know (not for sure at least) as she would continue her momentum by cushioning the fall with a roll and as she came to a stop. She would spring back to her feet, run towards Misako, and attempt to punch her in the gut! Before she would suddenly spin on her heels with a closed fist aimed where she assumed Sachiko's head would be.

Though whether or not any of these attacks would land truly wouldn't matter to Rabbit because just as quickly as she had come in she was gone. With her already running back towards Kyoko until she was close enough to execute a baseball slide that would end with her foot in Kyoko's gut. Which she assumed was the safest option considering how quickly she tended to recover.

Meanwhile outside Cannon would already be waiting by her corner when Rabbit had sprung out of her roll. "You think she'll ever learn to dial it down?"

"who can say? So what do you got to report? Did her boobs feel amazing?" Phoenix replied with a grin.

"Why don't you tell me. She's right there." Cannon answered rolling her eyes with a slight blush to her checks.

"Alright, Alright let me hear it. Whatcha think of them?"

Her head still throbbing from the impact of Rabbit's roundhouse kick, Kyoko was bowled off her feet, going sprawling to the canvas. With a groan, she reached for her head, rubbing at her temples to try and dull the pain as she curled up on her side. But Rabbit was far from done. Kyoko was only the beginning - she stayed in motion, giving the rest of the Heartbreakers a taste for what she could bring to the table!

Blindsided by the girl's speed, Misako and Sachiko could barely react before she closed in on them, rolling away from Kyoko and heading toward her teammates' corner. She shot a punch at Misako's gut that sent her doubling over forward with a cough, then whipped a fist around to clock Sachiko in the side of the head, causing her to stumble. As she slid back to plant her foot in Kyoko's stomach, the crowd was going wild! They saw the Cherry Bombs were standing up to their opponents, and with Rabbit's agility as effective as it was spectacular to behold, they were sure they would turn the tide!

The air was driven out of Kyoko's stomach as Rabbit planted her boot against her gut, and she deflated against the mat with a groan. Back in the corner, Sachiko rubbed at her head, glaring at the scene before her. "No way she's that good! That's not fair!"

"I don't care if it's fair or not," Misako cut in. "Fair isn't how we roll!"

Sachiko chuckled, giving Misako a slap on the shoulder. "Eheh...that's my girl~"

"Just watch." Hoping to catch Rabbit by surprise, Misako climbed into the ring, then leaned back against the ropes to draw on their momentum. She took off straight toward the lightweight, looking to grab her head and spike it down into a bulldog as she got close!

Dead in her tracks Rabbit could feel the excitement in the air. As it build over the roaring crowds and compelled her forward like nothing she had ever experienced. Though not because she had never been in the spotlight before. In fact, she was already accustomed to it in derby and for the most part considered a local celebrity.

However unlike her former battlegrounds these crowds weren't cheering for her team, they were cheering specific for her and it struck her with such awe. That after hitting Kyoko she would sit up and throw a fist in the air. Just in time to hear a loud "Behind you!" from her corner.

Of course she knew what it meant but had she not been so caught in the moment. She could have processed the warning much quicker and could have dodged before her head would suddenly snap forward and hit the ring mat with a satisfying BANG! Then after slumping over onto her side she would give out a low groan of pain.

Meanwhile Cannon would curse out loud and try to jump in but before she could. Phoneix would grab her and shake her head. "Nah she gotta learn the hard way. We'll jump if it gets rougher." Phoneix explain. To Cannon's annoyance who would click her tongue but nonetheless obeyed as she gripped the top rope with tight fingers.

A moment ago, the crowd had been riding off Rabbit's highs, cheering her on and clapping for her to put the Heartbreakers in their place with her well-practiced command of speed and agility. However, the air would soon be let out of the moment, and just as quickly the crowd's mood would take a turn. Misako came charging into the ring, grabbing Rabbit by the head and falling back to drive her skull into the mat, and with a loud thud from the impact, her body went still. The fans greeted the Heartbreakers' meddling with boos, chiding them for their cheap tactics - after all, Misako hadn't even been the legal woman when she saw fit to interfere. But she met it with a huff, rolling her shoulders as she stood over the downed lightweight and brushed some hair out of her eyes.

"C'mon, I'll take it from here," Misako said, helping Kyoko to her feet. The redhead eagerly nodded to her, slapping a hand against her side to tag her in. As Kyoko slipped through the ropes to get to her teammates, Misako stormed back toward Rabbit, bending down to wrap an arm around her throat and pull her back while holding down a sleeperhold!

"Phoenix?"

"Have a little faith. She didn't pick the most dangerous position in derby for nothing." Phoenix answered. Though honestly she wasn't sure if she believed it herself. Rabbit might have been a good roller derby player and she could still take a nasty bump like a champ. However, they weren't playing roller derby and Rabbit wasn't indestructible. Regardless though Phoenix wouldn't interfere just yet.

Wrestling was different than derby, here when they were in the ring they were more alone than any roller derby jam, and whether she liked it or not they couldn't bail each other out whenever they liked. So mistakes like what Rabbit had pulled couldn't be tolerated. They needed to learn them fast and if that meant watching her best friend get choked out so be it. Still though she couldn't help but feel the decision weight on her. As she hanged her head and arms over the top rope and watched with difficultly as Rabbit struggled to stay conscious.

Rabbit on the other hand, was having a bad time. The bump on her head had left her dazed and when she felt Misako pull her into a sleeperhold. She would jump back to life with almost no sense of direction. As she kicked frantically and pulled hard against Misako's arm to no avail. Though her panic really wouldn't set in until she had seen the grim looks on her friends faces and understood what it meant. She was left on her own and while she didn't understand why she had pretty good guess in her head. As she tried to get away one last time by sending a series of elbows into her opponents ribs. Each one weaker than the last but with the speed she was sending them she prayed that she could break the hold.

[CaptainL]

When Misako got her arm locked around Rabbit's throat and pulled back into a sleeperhold, she let everything else fall away. She clenched her teeth to steel her nerves, arching her back as she attempted to pull her opponent in close against her body. She didn't care for what was going through the minds of the other two members of the Flying Cherry Bombs, as long as she could focus on pulling ahead and claiming a victory for her team.

But with Sachiko and Kyoko on the sidelines, the two of them were free to taunt the opposing team about the lightweight's misfortune. With a smirk on her face, Sachiko leaned in closer, jabbing a finger in Phoenix and Cannon's direction. "Haw!~ You guys see that? It was your idea to send her out there, and look! She couldn't stand a chance against us! She's gonna lose you the match! How's that feel, huh?" She threw her head back, laughing with eager excitement. "You dumbasses! You sealed your own fate!" In truth, Rabbit's entrance had been quite unannounced, but Sachiko didn't care, as long as she got to taunt them over it.

It was then that Kyoko began incessantly tapping her superior's side. "Uhhh...Sachiko?"

Sachiko looked back at her. "Yeah?"

Kyoko merely needed to point at the action in the ring to show Sachiko what was going on - Rabbit had hit Misako with a few well-placed elbows to the ribs, and eventually the assault grew too much for her to bear! With each shot that landed, Misako's grip on Rabbit's head began to slip more and more, until at last she was forced to relinquish her hold, going staggering backward. She bent over at the waist, panting for breath, as an irate Sachiko slapped her hand against the ropes. "Oh, goddammit-!"

[TheSuitedOwl]

"I'm gonna rattle her."

"Easy." Phoenix muttered. As she steadied her friend, Cannon, from acting prematurely. Though luckily for her it wouldn't be for very long as all attention would return back to the ring. As Rabbit managed to elbow her way out of Misako's grasp. "You can do it Rabs! Tag out! Tag out!" Phoniex suddenly yelled with an stretched out hand and had begun to wave frantically to catch her friends attention.

Who at this point had begun to crawl towards a random direction from her opponent but away from her teammates! Luckily though once Rabbit had heard her friends call out to her, she would sluggishly correct her course but with the wasted time she had spent and the distance she had to cover. Her chances of tagging out only seemed to grow slimmer and slimmer by the second. "Come on! Where's your need for speed!"

[CaptainL]

It would take some concentrated effort, and a good few well-placed strikes, on Rabbit's part, but eventually Misako couldn't hold onto the lightweight any longer and was forced to relinquish her grasp. Stumbling back, she let Rabbit slip away from her hold, rubbing at her sides as she tried to catch her breath. With how much the Flying Cherry Bombs boasted of their speed and mobility, Misako was sure that she had lost her chance to keep the pressure up on the smaller girl, and that she would be heading back to safety before she knew it.

To her surprise, however, Misako looked up to see that Rabbit wasn't back at the ropes after all. She had lagged behind, slowed down by the fatigue she'd been under when Misako was holding down her throat. "Heh...guess I did something good, there," Misako muttered to herself. But she wasn't here to flatter herself. She knew that she had her chance, and that she couldn't let Rabbit make the tag!

Closing in on Rabbit, Misako got down into a stance, charging after her foe. She knew she would need to cross the ring quickly to catch up to her in time, but she was prepared for that. As she ran forward, she ducked down into a sommersault, rolling straight toward Rabbit, where she would suddenly jump up with a punch aimed at her back!

[TheSuitedOwl]

After her escape against Misako. Rabbit wasn't doing so well as she staggered forward. One hand in front of the other she crawled painfully slow. As she blinked away the few remaining black spots from her vision and carefully moved towards the sound of Phoenix's voice. Which she could tell was coming a little bit away from the left side in front of her.

And while she wasn't sure how much longer she needed to go. She could at least guess it wasn't too far off before Misako had managed to lay her flat, face first, onto the mat with a solid punch to her upper-back.

[CaptainL]

Rabbit might have pulled herself away from Misako, but the sleeperhold she'd been under had still drained her stamina, and she couldn't rely on the speed and mobility she and her team had used to make a name for themselves. Misako saw her chance, and she was ready to take it - before Rabbit could get to her corner, the delinquent closed back in on her, throwing a punch to her back that sent her toppling onto her face!

The crowd booed at the sight of Rabbit deflating into the mat, her efforts thwarted in their tracks. They had hope that the Flying Cherry Bombs could make the save, but the Heartbreakers were determined to keep that hope at bay. Misako looked down at Rabbit with a glare, her arms crossed. Just for good measure, and looking to stop her from getting away, she swung a kick into the lightweight's ribs, hitting her while she was down.

"I'll be taking this, thank you," Misako grumbled. She reached down to grab Rabbit around the waist, going to throw herself backward to slam her head against the mat with a German suplex! In the process, she aimed to bring Rabbit closer to her team's corner, hoping to isolate her from her allies and making it harder for her to call on them for aid.
