Cecilia Lombard vs. Natalia Dominique - Apex Qualifier Match

[CaptainL]

This was just what Cecilia liked to see. Her hold was locked in place, and Natalia was all but powerless to do anything about it! Grinning wider, she bent back more and more, putting the pressure against her opponent's vulnerable spine as she pressed more of her weight down against her vertebrae, while at the same time forcing her upper body back further to twist her into an arc. She was hearing the crowd boo her for such a cruel punishment of the fan-favorite, but Cecilia gave it no heed. All she did was look down on Natalia with a chuckle at her expense. She was winning, and that was all that mattered.

But Cecilia decided she wasn't done just yet. All of a sudden, she let go, dropping Natalia so that her face would fall forward and slam against the mat. If Natalia thought she was being released, however, she was sorely mistaken. Cecilia only wanted her to think that for a few short moments before she stood back up, this time driving the heel of her boot against Natalia's lower back - and grabbing her by the wrists to pull back on her arms into a surfboard hold!

"Let's show all these people just how loud you can scream, shall we?"

"aggggghhh AAGGGH!" Natalia groaned in pain as Cecilia punished her back and neck with the vicious submission hold stretching her spine mercilessly while Natalia could do little more than kick her feet in the mat in frustration. Then, without any form of warning, Cecilia simply let go of Natalia, and The Dream's pretty face and perky breasts smashed against the canvas as her body returned to its normal position.

"owww owwww" Natalia whined a bit, rubbing her cute nose that had hit the mats pretty hard when she was released. With her other hand Natalia reached her back, trying to rub it to make the pain go away, but what little relief she could get from it was very short lived as Cecilia continued her assault, stomping on Natalia's sexy back to make her scream in agony once more. "AAAAAAIGH!"

And then Cecilia captured Natalia's wrists and began pulling them back, once more lifting Natalia's chest and face from the mats while Cecilia's foot sunk deep between the blue-eyed cutie shoulder blades. Once more Natalia could do little other than scream in agony and kick her boots on the mats. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

Going straight from the camel clutch to a surfboard hold, Cecilia was taking her time with tormenting her opponent. She felt like she could afford it, after all - she was so convinced that Natalia could pose no threat to her that she was willing to enjoy herself a little. Cecilia wasn't just trying to hurt Natalia, though of course she was content to do just that. She also wanted this to serve as proof of her dominance - that she could so effortlessly twist her opponents into one painful position after another, and that they would be helpless to stop her! And, so far, it was working!

"No, I don't think we've had enough with you!" Cecilia taunted, grinding the sole of her boot even harder against Natalia's back as she pulled at her wrists to inch her back further and further against the pressure she was exerting. "And I don't think you want to give up now, do you?"

She added one other note in a low whisper, just loud enough for Natalia to hear. "If you know what's good for you, you won't." Cecilia had grown cocky, assured that Natalia couldn't escape, and she wanted to make sure she served as an example! If she had any say in it, she wouldn't let her opponent cut things short!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Natalia continued screaming in pain, kicking her feet on the mats, as Cecilia kept taunting and torturing her. But despite how much it hurt and how intimidating Cecilia was trying to be, Natalia had no plans to give up. She was a very tough girl, despite not looking like it, and she continued enduring the surfboard while waiting for her chance to escape.

Natalia's spine was bent horribly with her chest puffed forward much to the enjoyment of the fans and it looked like she was completely helpless, a plaything in Cecilia's hands, until finally Natalia felt Cecilia's grip on her right wrist slip a bit and she knew it was her chance. She pulled her arm as hard as she could, slipping her hand free from her opponent's hand. Landing on her right boob on the mats was not a nice experience, but Natalia rolled on her shoulder and quickly turned around to lay on her back. Bringing her new freed hand up, Natalia grabbed Cecilia's arm holding her left wrist and now using the power of both arms she pulled as hard as she could, trying to unbalance Cecilia and send her crashing to the mats.

Cecilia had only one thing to say in praise of Natalia - the girl was tenacious. She had the sole of her boot wedged firmly against her spine as she pulled back at her arms, bending her further and further under the pressure of the surfboard hold, and she wouldn't even crack. She was lasting far longer than she was expecting her to, especially for a model-turned-wrestler who seemed to get most of her attention from her good looks and upbeat attitude. If anything, Cecilia was starting to grow frustrated. Her eyes narrowed in a glare as she pressed the sole of her boot harder against Natalia's back, twisting her foot back and forth. She hoped that would help to put her over the edge - surely, she couldn't be that implacable!

But just then, with a sudden pull forward, Cecilia felt one arm pop free of grip. In trying to hold on, she had to exert effort on her own - and Natalia had decided that rather than try and get out, she would simply wait until Cecilia couldn't hold on any longer. Now, she looked down with a gasp as she saw her fingers dangling freely, with Natalia lying to one side beneath her. "What the..!? How-!?" she spat.

Still, Cecilia was quick to remind herself that she couldn't lose track of her goal. Gritting her teeth, she sucked in a breath, twisting harder at the wrist she still had caught to transition to a wristlock. Natalia's little escape, she told herself, wouldn't mean anything if she still forced her to submit anyway. But Natalia would continue to surprise her, as she managed to flip herself over on her back, much to the cheers of the fans - and to the shock of Cecilia! And as Natalia went on to grab at her other hand and pulled down, she was able to swing her overhead, flipping her to her back!

Cecilia's spine met the canvas with a loud thud as she swung through the air in an arc, landing flat with enough force to kick her legs in the air. She had no choice but to let Natalia go - though she would still roll herself forward in an attempt to get more distance between her and her opponent before she climbed to her feet and dusted herself off. This girl was definitely putting up more of a fight than she'd bargained for!
