Hikari has a nervous look on her face. This is the first time she doesn't have her mother giving her advice tonight before her match.
But she feels confident going into this matchup against her fellow young lioness competitor, some young blond that goes by Nico or whatever... The only thing that she is focused on is winning tonight's match and making her mother proud of her.
Music plays over the speakers, as she bounces onto the stage twirling her braid in her hand. That cocky smirk on her face as she makes her way down to the ramp before sliding into the ring.
Raising her arm and doing her good girl pose with a smile on her face, the crowd cheers her on since she is one of the newer baby faces and is the daughter of a former champion. 'Can't wait to see what my opponent is like so I can win.'
Nico stood behind the gorilla position hopping up an down,her usual ball which she shot as a present to the crowd , hopping on her head with her. "un, dos, tres, quatre...",she said and thought about her first matches. She had beaten Tanner who looked really threatening but was good at heart, Nico really took a shine to her afterwards, Teuila easily became a close friend of the Katalonian after beating her in a hard fought match. Nico hated nothing more then people don't liking her so she would see to it that Hikari and her would become friends too. The Blonde was here to wrestle and getting stronger, but she also wanted to make a lot of friends and have the best time of her life here at LAW! Reny, Tanner, Teuila...that was a good start and she really had placed them close to her heart. So she smiled when her theme the "Cant del Barca" began to play.

The Blonde walked out to a cheering crowd who already knew her cheery, energetic personality and her unusual but intense fighting style called "Cardona Method", a mix of Football, Flamenco and Keysi, a spanish martial arts style used in "The Dark Knight" for example.
The european walked down the ramp, kicking her ball around, doing tricks with it, balance it on her head and just having a lot of fun.
"Hola LAW! Com estàs?", she smiled and waved around while balacing the ball on her head.

The blonde Katalonian opted for a yellow Barcelona dress this time that wrapped itself tightly around her forms, her breasts and cute butt, jiggling all the way while she walked up to the ring and put her ball between her ankles before jumping up to the canvas and over the ropes.
"Wooooooh!",she cheered and looked around before grabbing her ball, setting it down and shooting it into the waiting crowd.
Then she turned to Hikari and got a big grin.
"Holaaaa...I am Nico! Com estas?", she smiled and reached for Hikaris hand before reminding herself that Hikari was japanese, so she bowed instead.
"Uh-uhm- I ... I hope we have a good match and can become friends after this! I...I saw you playing with your beyblades! I really enjoy that too ! Maybe we can have a match some time?", she said and her green eyes looked cheerful onto the japanese girl.
Seeing the blond woman come to the ring in a soccer kit was something Hikari didn't expect, especially the blond woman's body jiggling and bouncing everywhere with every step she takes before jumping into the ring.
Giving a nod of approval of showing off some of her athleticism while still holding the ball between her ankles, before kicking the ball into the crowd with a grin on her face.
Hikari smiles seeing the small blond hold her hand out before pulling back and bowing a bit, before doing the same by bowing her head to her opponent. 'Thank you... I hope we have a good match and you can see my collection later after the match.' Hikari says as she steps back into her corner, eager for the bell to ring to start the match off between the two rookies.
Nico grinned wide as Hikari seemed to be really ok and so Nico just got so overexcited that she shot forward, hugged her new friend and gave her a big kiss on the lips.
"Mwwwwah! For good luck!", she chuckled with a wink, the crowd cheering and shoutint before the Catalonian jumped back into her corner.
She looked at the confused Hikari and smiled.
"Forget it Hikari, it's Chinatown!", she shouted out of context and the bell rang.
And suddenly something changed, Nico started to hop up and down from one leg to the other, raised her arms in a flamenco pose and shielded her face with them before she started to circle her fellow student.
"Time to learn the Cardona Method! OLE!", the blonde shouted and lashed out, kicking Hikaris legs from under her if possible and if she made that she would follow with a pele kick into Hikaris chest to get her down on the ground for good!
Hikari was stunned... she figured that Nico must be from some different country compared to herself as she would link and stare at being kissed by another woman, what worse is it was her first kiss ever.
Her face turning red as she presses her hands on her cheeks starting to mutter and shake her head from side to side at this disaster that just happened to her, having her first kiss stolen by a girl of all things. 'OMG... She stole it... Does this mean she is the one for me?... what is mom going to think about this...' those thoughts are running through Hikari's head as she is frozen even when the bell was rung for the match to begin the match.
As she would take a few steps forward before stopping and realizing that she kissed a girl and didn't like... 'Hey you're going to pay for that...You took something very important for me.' Hikari screams out and walked right into kick to the legs that sent her stumbling before a Pele kick sends her to the canvas on her back.
Nico did'nt care that much. In Europe and especially in Spain a kiss was'nt that big of a deal. Her Mama, her Abuelos, her aunts, uncles etc kissed and hugged each other frequently so Nico saw this as more of a "really nice greeting", then everything else, totally forgetting what a kiss in Japan, the land of stuck up people, meant. And she did'nt even realized it now as Hikari blushed and told it to her. "Gee,I don't even remember my first kiss! So be glad this is on international TV right now!", she grinned and did'nt mean bad...she just did'nt understand what she did to Hikari. If she did she would have apologized immediatly but for now, the cultural misunderstanding went on and Nico started to hop on her feet, throwing her arms up in her signature Flamenco/Keysi pose, covering her face and clapped.
"OLE!"
Hikari seemed eager to get this fight going and Nico would'nt dissapoint her new friend! In fact she would give everything to make up for the loss she faced against one of her best friends, Teuila Masina in her second match! She would not fail, this was for her and for Barcelona and all of Catalonia!
"Barcelona es mucho más!, she shouted and got a kick from Hikari that made her tumble back, but the second one, Nico saw coming and she greeted it with a kick of her own and with a sickening thud both of their shins rammed together.
"Grgh..."
Admittedly, not the best of Nicos ideas but at least she stopped Hikari in her tracks and stunned her for the moment too as the pure force of both of their legs sent shivers of pain through each Lioness body.
But being a football player, Nico was accustomed to such situations and with a loud shout she would raise her other leg, sending a knee into Hikaris chin if all went through!
"AAAAIIIAAAAH!"
Hikari smacks the canvas after taking the Pele kick, but it was more of a glancing blow that stunned her for a little. It stung more than anything, as she would quickly get back up to her feet.
Her frown does not leave her face after hearing her opponent come back about having her first kiss taken on television like this, and knowing that her mother is watching this and upset as well as she can picture her mother wanting to come down to the ring and give the little blond a piece of her mind. As she quickly got to her feet by kip up and to land a kick right to her opponent that sent her backwards a bit, but trying to follow that with another kick led to her missing it completely due to Nico countering it with a kick of her... the loud crack sound of shin hitting shin made some people winch in the crowd from hearing bone hit bone with a lot of force behind it.
'AAAHHH' Hikari screams out, staggering backwards before falling to her knee clutching her leg. But it only left herself wide open to Nico slamming a knee right to her chin, forcing her onto her back again, seeing double from the impact of the move.
If Nico would have known how much her "Innocent little kiss" had hurt Hikari, she immediatly would have apologized to her. She was'nt accustomed to the "stuck up" japanese attitude of "less body contact as possible", Nico wanted to kiss, hug and cuddle everyone in her way as a sign of her fiery spanish blood pumping through her veins, wanting to spread her love all over the place. But Hikari did'nt seemed to want something of that particular love the cocky catalonian had to give, in fact, she was rather furious. But Nico did'nt understand why, sure Hikari said something about "stealing her first kiss", but that was so helplessly japanese that the european girl could hardly follow.
It just seemed that her opponent would'nt become her friend in the near future, something that Nico wanted to change after the match! So she decided to win the Beyblade Queens heart by giving her the best fight imaginable! "Ole!", she shouted as her knee connected with Hikaris jaw and the blonde cutie backed way, raising her arms and clapped her hands, going back into position and starting to circle her friend. When she reached the girls midsection , the catalonian would turn around, jump and deliver a standing moonsault on the body of the japanese woman under her!
Her head is ringing from taking that knee shot to the face. Letting out a low groan as she rubs her jaw, making sure that nothing is broken at all, but sadly that left her open to whatever the smaller blond had in store for her. As she doesn't know where Nico is at until it is too late when a weight comes crashing down onto her stomach, driving the air out of her body from a moonsault.
but that just helped her out in the long run as she was able to grab hold of the smaller woman and with a feat of strength is able to sit up with Nico across her chest... before Hikari gets to her feet with the smaller blond in her arms. 'I told you don't joke around with something like this now you're going to find out the hard way,' she screams out before tossing her opponent overhead with a fall away slam. Showing off her crazy strength and trying to hide the fact that her head is still hurting from the knee.
