Holding out for a Hiro: Helen Andronike vs. Hiro Takahashi

[ScylliasExoter]

Helen paused her kicking. In part because he went to a knee and she no longer had a good angle to kick him with. She remembered him catching her previous kicks after all. But also him siding with her against the crowd. He truly was kind and she felt awful for being so angry with him. There was a moment’s hesitation. “Maybe you’re right…” Then she steeled herself. She was in a match and she was in it to win it. She would fix things with him after if that was still possible. Helen charged Hiro and would attempt a single leg takedown. If successful, she would lock in an ankle lock like Kurt Angle.

When Hiro started to rose to his feet Helen went for a single leg takedown!

"Nani!?" Hiro tried to stay balanced with one leg but Helen was resilient and eventually got the Japanese star on his back.

Hiro's first instinct was to get right back up but with the Spartan holding onto his right leg she would turn Hiro on his stomach and lock his right leg in an ankle lock!

"Gaaaaaaaaggghh! Hiro roared in pain as Helen caught his weakened leg! All he can do now is struggle and try to move to the ropes to break the hold!

[ScylliasExoter]

Helen didn’t like the sound she was hearing from Hiro, though she didn’t show it. ”TAP! Damn your pride!” Hiro was resilient and showed he had the heart of a Hiro. Helen was strong, but Hiro had a stronger upper body. So while his legs were useless, he was able to slowly but surely crawl to the ropes. Maybe it was mercy and empathy from being an Olympic athlete terrified of injury. Or maybe it was simply a desire to keep the pace going. Either way, Helen let go as soon as Hiro grabbed the ropes. She readied a superkick for when he would get to his feet.

Hiro made it to the ropes and the crowd sighed in relief as there "Hiro" was still in the match. After escaping the ankle lock the Japanese kickboxer got to his feet thanks to the ropes and his face was riddling with anger.

When he got up to face Helen he could see the kick coming and as he expertly leaned back and dodged the kick as if he was Anderson Silva. When Helen had to place her leg back to her stance Hiro was quick to come to her and land a mean gut punch!

"This is for my leg! WATATATATATATATA!! WAAAAATAAAAAAA!!" Hiro went bezerk and nailed Helen with a fury of body shots and would attempt to end the combo with an Uppercut!

Helen came to the realization she had poked the bear too much as Hiro nailed her with a flurry of blows. The air left her body as he gut punched her repeatedly and then she went down on the canvass with a thud after Hiro’s thunderous European uppercut. Helen was knocked for a loop and moaned and writhed on the canvass.

The crowd cheered loudly when Hiro landed a huge combo as he knocked Helen down with an European Uppercut! The crowd stomped on there feet demanding more as Hiro would run to the ropes and attempted to deliver a Hulk Hogan Leg drop right at her neck!

[ScylliasExoter]

Helen laid there starfished staring up at the lights. She was thinking she made a serious mistake. Suddenly a dark form blocked out the lights and she was then in a world of pain as Hiro delivered a standing leg drop onto her chest and neck. Helen cried out in pain but had no voice, as the air had left her body.

[Weonna]

Hiro landed a legdrop which got the crowd cheer out loudly! Hiro began to lay on top of his downed opponent with his belly on top of her's and began to lift one leg up for a pin attempt hoping to end this match once and for all! The ref began to slid and hit the mats to begin the count!

1!

2!!

[ScylliasExoter]

THREE! yelled the crowd!

But the ref did not call for the bell. He had stopped inches from the canvass on the count of 3 and was pointing at Helen’s free leg touching the bottom rope. The crowd went berserk. Helen couldn’t lift Hiro off of her, so she just lay there cackling maniacally.

[Weonna]

"Dammit..." Hiro was forced by the ref to break the pin. He got up and looked down at Helen.

"You should've stayed down...i don't want to keep hurting you..." Hiro had enough with the Spartan as he felt like he already let out his anger on her.

"Helen...I've up now or else things might get ugly...you know that your outmatched..." he stood over her with his arms crossed.
