Kyoko Kobashi vs. Lily Sniper

[CaptainL]

Lily might have made a shocking recovery in how she had been able to come back swinging from the fall she'd taken - but that didn't mean that she didn't emerge unscathed. She was still dizzied, and Kyoko wasn't going to give her the chance to recover. This was just an opportunity for her to set up her next move! If the superplex hadn't succeeded, she would just have to try again - and as she slammed her fist into Lily's face, the veteran went down like a sack of potatoes, her body too stiff and heavy to get up.

Kyoko dusted her hands off as she watched her opponent collapse, but she wasn't done yet. Wanting to make sure Lily would stay down, she charged ahead forward, jumping off her feet as she got close and turning to throw herself down on top of Lily for an elbow drop!

[Arjuna]

Lily was hit by Kyoko's superman punch, and now she was on the mat, groaning in pain. She knew that now that she was on the mat, she would be even more vulnerable than before, and her opponent would certainly take advantage of this. Sure enough, when Lily was busy trying to regain her bearing, she saw Kyoko making her next move, which was an elbow drop as she jumped up into the air, aiming her elbow at her body.

Lily would force herself to move, rolling herself to the side, avoiding the elbow from hitting her body. She wouldn't be able to go far, though as she would end up on her belly. She groaned, trying her best to gather her strength while she was still down. She was hoping that Kyoko would be preoccupied with her elbow hitting the empty spot, allowing her to gather more strength for a few more seconds.

[CaptainL]

Now that Lily had gone down, she seemed vulnerable. Defenseless and unmoving, it was practically an invitation for Kyoko to seize upon - and already, she was setting up another move, now that she was sure she'd have the time to pull it off! She ran toward Lily, holding her arm up bent at the elbow as she prepared to bring it down on her as soon as she came into range!

Kyoko was stubborn when it came to victory; when Lily had kicked out of her attempt to finish this match earlier, it only made her that much more desperate to silence her, and to get the victory she deserved. Unfortunately, that stubborn nature also meant that she wasn't exactly thinking things through. And now, as she threw herself toward the former Wrestle Angel, Lily quickly rolled off to the side, leaving Kyoko's elbow to take the brunt of the impact against the mat!

She threw back her head with a scream as the canvas rumbled under her elbow, and she rolled to her side, clutching her arm and rubbing at it as she sputtered and gasped. Lily had gotten away just in time, and Kyoko had struck nothing but the canvas, the pain of the impact surging through her nerves and leaving her paralyzed. "OWww!! Ow ow...owwie..." she groaned, rubbing at her arm. She was focused on trying to dull the sensation, and in any case, it was no place for her to be while Lily was still on the warpath...

[Arjuna]

Successfully avoiding the elbow drop by rolling herself over, Lily ended up on all four, and she saw Kyoko being in pain after hitting the mat with her elbow. She knew that this was an opportunity to turn the table, so she would force herself to get up and approach her opponent so that she could grab her by her head to pull her back up onto her feet. From there, she would try to neutralize her opponent first by driving her knee into her belly, looking to have her winded from the strike.

Still feeling sluggish, Lily decided to show her opponent that she wasn't one to be fucked with. Still holding onto Kyoko's body, Lily would try to lift her up with a military press, holding her up right above her head, displaying her strength before throwing her down onto the mat with a military press slam! She was certain that the height from where Kyoko was falling from would inflict massive damage on her.

[CaptainL]

After a brush with defeat that came too close for comfort, Lily wasn't about to let Kyoko walk away with the victory. Now, she was out to make sure that the delinquent saw the consequences of trying to put one over her. Kyoko now rolled to her back, still rubbing at her sore elbow and panting for breath. As a result, she was in no condition to defend herself - and Lily, on the other hand, had plenty to say!

Kyoko hissed under her breath as Lily grabbed her head, pulling her back up. But she was weary from the effort she'd put herself through up to this point, and she teetered tenuously on her feet, her knees knocking together. When Lily next slammed her knee into her gut, it was enough to take Kyoko's footing out from under her entirely. She let out a gasp, falling forward - but before she hit the mat, she would find her motion arrested, caught up in Lily's grasp!

"Whoah, hey-!" Kyoko protested, realizing that she was now defenseless and in the clutches of an angry Lily Sniper. "What are you doing-? Hey, I'm sure we can work this-" But no amount of talk would stop Lily from lifting her even higher, holding Kyoko up high above her head! The redhead's eyes bulged and her jaw dropped. She'd just been up at the top rope for a superplex, but that hardly mattered - now, she was convinced this was the highest off the ground she'd been in in this match!

She let out a scream, knowing the impact that was about to happen wouldn't be pleasant. "WHOAH, HEY, HEY, I'M-!" she cried, flailing her arms and legs. But just as quickly as she had found herself up in the air, Kyoko was thrown down, crashing into the mat like a meteor into the earth! Another scream tore through the air as she plummeted, before she landed spread-eagled on the mat with enough force to shake the ring and bounce her off the ground a few inches before coming back down. She groaned a hoarse groan, her eyes rolling back up in her head as she settled into a daze!

[Arjuna]

Displaying her sheer strength by lifting Kyoko up in the military press, Lily then slammed her down with a military press slam, and she knew that the move should've inflicted massive damage on her opponent. Huffing as she stood over the downed Kyoko, Lily would then bend down so that she could grab her opponent to pull her up. She was far from done with her opponent, and she wanted to show it to everyone that she wasn't one to be screwed with.

Holding Kyoko by her wrist, Lily would then send her running towards the ropes with an Irish whip, looking to have her rebound from those ropes and return back to her. From there, she planned to hit her with a massive lariat. She wanted to see if she could flip her in the air with the lariat and this display of power would be another instance that one should never fuck with her.

[CaptainL]

The aftershocks of Lily's military press were still going through Kyoko's body. Her spine was bent into an arc; it was too painful for her to lay flat, and she was still struggling to consciously register her surroundings. But then, Lily, not satisfied with her efforts, decided to make lightning strike twice. Before Kyoko could find her feet, she was already pulled back up, her head spinning as her glassy-eyed gaze idly circled around the ring. If it wasn't for Lily supporting her weight, Kyoko would surely have fallen over. But Lily wasn't done with her yet.

Slinging her across the ring with an Irish whip, Lily sent the delinquent on her way. Kyoko stumbled and nearly fell over as she was run into the ropes, doubling over at the waist, but she hit her target nonetheless, the motion slingshotting her straight back toward Lily. And when she got to where the veteran was waiting, she was hit by a blow that caused her to flip straight off her feet before coming crashing to the canvas below!

Kyoko landed with her arms splayed out around her, gazing up at the lights. She winced and clenched her teeth, laid out on her back as a low groan escaped her throat. Lily was certainly making her point clear.

[Arjuna]

The lariat was a show to behold as Lily managed to make Kyoko flip off her feet after hitting her with her arm. Now that the point was made clear, Lily decided that it was time to bring this match to its eventual conclusion. Holding out her arms, deciding to get the crowd fired up by what she was about to do next, Lily would circle around Kyoko's downed body once before she stopped next to her, bending down to grab onto her body before hoisting her up onto her shoulders, putting her into a fireman's carry.

Once she brought Kyoko up in the fireman's carry, Lily would parade her around, displaying her strength before she got herself to the center of the ring. Standing tall, she would then jump up and fall to the side, looking to bring Kyoko's head down into the mat in order to execute the death valley driver which she called Sniper Driver!

[CaptainL]

If the crowd had been whipped up into a frenzy before, the excitement they had shown paled in comparison to what they were doing now. The whole arena had gone up in cheers as fans clapped their hands and pumped fists in the air, rooting for Lily's every move. She was making an impressive comeback, after it had looked as though she was down for the count. But not only that, she was doing so in a manner so impressive that no one could possibly doubt that, even after so many years, she hadn't lost what marked her among the stars of Wrestle Angels.

Now, Lily circled around Kyoko, who still lay dazed on the mat. She groaned, her body rolling limply from one side to the other as she tried to arouse any feeling in her crumpled form, but she could hardly make it work - her chest rose and fell as she panted for breath, and her eyes stared out at the distance in a half-lidded gaze. She couldn't find the strength in her to get back on her feet - and the next thing she knew, Lily had already bent downward, scooping her up and placing her proudly on her shoulders!

The crowd let up another cheer, seeing everything was lined up perfectly for Lily to make a come-from-behind victory. It was thanks to all the noise, coupled with the time Lily had taken to parade around the ring and show off her catch, that Kyoko began to stir back to her senses; she groaned under her breath, shaking her head before blinking a few times to collect herself. But once again, it was too late. By the time Kyoko had realized where she was, Lily as about to perform the Sniper Driver!

In an instant, Kyoko's eyes snapped open wide, and a shrill scream split the air as her body shook in Lily's arms. Her cries accompanied her as she was swung downward in an arc, with Lily dropping to the side with her in tow. But then, the blow landed, and the mat rumbled underneath the collision. Kyoko's shoulders struck the canvas, and her legs kicked up in the air before she fell flat below Lily, once again on her back and knocked senseless! Her arms and legs fell heavily at her sides as a gasp escaped her throat, the air forced from her lungs!

[Arjuna]

Bringing Down Kyoko with her Sniper Driver, Lily knew that it would be next to impossible to actually get up from that. The sheer power of the move should've inflicted such a massive damage on her opponent, and after sitting up, she looked at Kyoko and decided to bring this match to an end. She would get herself on top of Kyoko, reaching down to one of her legs and hooking it up. At the same time, she looked at her face as she listened to the referee counting for the pin. If Kyoko somehow had enough strength to kick out, then she would be very disgruntled, though she honestly believed that this would be the end for her opponent.

"ONE!"

"TWO!"
