Aarna Mehta vs. Sakura Hagiwara

[Dubski]

Mehta landed hard on that leg, precisely where she wanted! The yells of pain and Sakura's immediately descent into panic made the Transcendent a lot more confident in her game plan now, but as Sakura tried to tug her leg away, the Indian girl wasn't about to let her get away quite yet. "No-no! I'm not done quite yet, sorry!" The silver-haired girl did offer a brief smile of sympathy before huffing in a deep breath.

Then, Aarna would think it was time to really bring the pain to that leg as she attempted to bring Sakura's leg close. After that, she would attempt to drop back with it, hoping to wrap her slender legs around Hagiwara's injured leg in an attempt to lock in a Knee Bar with the express intent to wrench at her leg and try to further injure it and--if she were lucky--get an early tap out from her ailing opponent!

Sakura grunted and cried out in pain after the hard impact with her opponent's knees to her leg. The entire limb felt like it was on fire from the sheer pain pain circulating through it as she tried to sit up and pull her leg back and towards her. But she wasn't so lucky, or more accurately she wasn't faster than her opponent who was quick to grab her leg once more and pull it back!

Immediately recognizing the danger she was in Sakura tried to sit up to protest it only to be too little too late as the girl dropped down, locking Sakura in a "Aghhhh!"vicious knee bar! Screaming in pain from the hold Sakura tried to sit up only to be forced back down, trying to endure the painful and wrenching hold on her knee as she struggled and thrashed in the Indian girl's clutches! The only thing Sakura could do being to try and drag herself backwards in a effort to try and reach the bottom ropes!

[Dubski]

Aarna Mehta seemed absolutely proficient at submissions, biting her lip as she held onto the Knee Bar tight! "Would it be too much... If I asked you to just tap?" asked the Indian girl with a slightly hopeful smile. Still, she kept on the submission, torquing that knee as much as she could.

And then she could see Sakura making movement and Aarna shook her head as her opponent was touching it out to drag them both towards the ropes. "No-No!" said Mehta as she tried to keep it locked in tight, tugging on further until finally the idol had grabbed hold of the bottom rope.

Exhaling, Aarna let go of the hold and rolled back after the referee declared the rope break. She watched her handiwork for a moment, but knew she had to keep on Sakura if she wanted to maintain an advantage here. When she was on a roll, that's when Aarna felt most at peace with her matches as well.

And so she went to Sakura, hoping to lift her to her feet against the ropes with the intent to send a stinging chop directly against her chest!

[Bare]

Sakura was in total agony right now. The vicious kneebar that was locked in by Aarna leaving her without many options other than making the long crawl backwards to try and grab at the ropes. "Not... Happening!" Sakura said in response to the call from Aarna to just tap out. After all Sakura was anything but a quitter, not anymore.

Luckily for the idol though she was able to successfully make it too the ropes, grabbing them and keeping a tight grip of them to force a rope break from the submission. Immediately upon feeling the limbs of her opponent leave her own Sakura sighed in relief.

Only for her to be immediately under attack one more as the girl reached down, grabbing hold of Sakura and lifting her up against her will! "Ngh.." Grunting in resistance as she was, the idol was unprepared for the chop that connected to her chest!

"Gah!" Screaming in pain from the impact Sakura would grit her teeth as she looked up at the woman across from her. Holding onto the ropes for support with one hand Sakura would lift her other up before bringing it down, trying to send a chop of her own in retaliation straight to Aarna's own chest!

[Dubski]

The chop rained out and Aarna looked satisfied with herself for a moment. She wanted to keep Sakura on the ropes, literally in this case, and she was so far being effective at it. She would go after that leg again when the time was right, but for now the Indian wrestler was content to just wear her down more.

But then Mehta got hit with a chop from Sakura now that echoed into the arena. "Yow!" screamed out Aarna, turning slightly as she held her chest. She supposed it was a fair balance, but not quite one that the Transcendent was about to allow. "Okay... That stung!" she declared the obvious to her foe.

Wincing from the pain, Aarna would then fire back, trying to hit Sakura with another chop, putting even more strength behind it this time!

[Bare]

Sakura was determined. Anyone that even knew of her instead of being fans knew that about the idol turned wrestler. Out of anything it was probably one of the most stand out attributes about the singer. As such despite taking some major pain to her leg and taking a chop, her first instinct was to fire right back with a chop of her own to Aarna's chest in return!

But despite her determination her body still had limits, and right now her leg was working against her, spiking in pain from the action. Not only that but her opponent wasn't done yet too and instead returned fire with a second chop to Sakura's chest! "Agh!" Yelling in pain from the stinging chop as well as the pain in her leg Sakura had to hook both arms over the ropes to keep herself from falling. But she was definitely unable to respond in kind like before and was in fact helpless to what Aarna would try next!

[Dubski]

Aarna had placed a lot more power behind this second chop, the impact cracking louder for the crowd in attendance. Mehta was a bit surprised at herself for how hard she had hit Sakura, but pleased at it, because it had sent any fight away from the blue-haired girl.

With her opponent clung to the ropes, Aarna gave a thought to consider her options. Then, Mehta gave Hagiwara a firm yank to Sakura, yanking her away from the ropes! "Let's... See how this goes!" exclaimed the Indian girl briefly.

And then, she would hook the hurt leg of Sakura and hold it tight before attempting to hoist her for up for Fisherman's Suplex, hoping to land the move and keep a bridge and that hurt leg hurt, thinking she could get a quick pinfall!

[Bare]

Despite her best attempt to stay in the bout so far Sakura now found herself on the backfoot, hard. Between the damage to her leg and literally being against the ropes she was unable to do much in response beyond the initial revenge chop she got off. But both of the chops that Aarna had delivered to Sakura had already left her chest a soft shade of red and nearly falling over had she not held onto the ropes.

But that was a position Aarna was not willing to allow Sakura to remain in. Feeling herself grabbed by the woman Sakura was forced from her sanctuary! "Ngh no!" She squeaked out in response, her leg and chest stinging in pain as she was forced to move.

Worse yet however was when the Indian girl hooked Sakura's hurt leg making her wince in pain as her head was forced down before..."AGH!" Screaming in pain as she was slammed into the mat with a vicious fisherman's suplex as the ref dropped down to count the pin.

ONE!

TWO!!

"NO!" Screaming in exertion Sakura twisted her whole torso to the side while kicking her good leg out in a effort to get her shoulder off the mat and break free of the pin attempt!

[Dubski]

Up and over Sakura went while Aarna kept that knee held in tight. With her toes on the mat, adding to the bridge, the Indian girl held on as tightly as she could, face scrunched up as the referee began her count... and then suddenly, her body was dislodged from the bridge, with Hagiwara having kicked out, leaving Mehta sitting on the mat. "Uggggh...!" groaned the Transcendent, throwing her head back.

She thought this might actually get her the win, but she presumed she needed to wear down Sakura even more as she glanced over at her. Aarna knew she'd fight this hard, so it was no surprised her opponent would too. Then, Mehta grabbed hold of Sakura's hurt leg, huffing a sigh of exertion. "Here goes..." she murmured.

Then, Aarna would attempt to do a flip up and over Sakura while holding that hurt leg, hoping to snap it and hyperextend it, really hoping she could take even more fight out of her resilient opponent with a well-placed attack to her weak point!

[Bare]

Sakura panted softly as she laid on the mat following the kick out attempt. Taking all the damage to her leg as she had it was exceptionally difficult for her to do. 'This isn't good, I need to do something quick or I'll be taken out before I can do anything.' Sakura thought to herself as she looked up, seeing Aarna grab her leg and lift it up.

Eyes widening Sakura knew she couldn't let the silver haired woman do whatever it is she had planned. "I don't think so!" Sakura yelled, using Aarna's grip on her leg to try and pull the girl towards her.

If successful in doing so Sakura would use her good leg to pull back before extending it out, kicking Aarna in the face as she pulled the Indian woman in! "You got too predictable!" Sakura would yell defiantly if the attack was successful in pushing her opponent away from her.
