Apex Qualifier: Jackie Rose vs. Kaede Okatomo

[ReticentCone]

Kaede's strikes connected, sending her opponent to the ground and putting a smirk on The Bloody Maple's face. In an ill advised move, she considered mounting her to keep pounding away at her, but the moments hesitation meant that when she did go down, Jackie managed to slam both of her knees into Kaede's face, forcing Doctor Kaede to stumble backward. Before she could regain her footing, Jackie had already gotten to her feet and nailed her with a vicious spin kick to her face, knocking Kaede off her feet, to the ground and by the ropes. Jackie would not waste moment before putting The Bloody Maple's powerful legs into a figure four leg lock, clearly hoping to cause Kaede to submit, or weaken her legs.

Kaede would attempt to grab the ropes to get the officals to force Jackie to break the hold, at which point Doctor K.O. would attempt slip out of the ring and step back from the canvas and rest for a few moments.

[Void-Effect]

Jackie would quickly pull Kaede into a figure four lock when Kaede was knocked down as Jackie would go for a submission hold to weakened her as Jackie would smirk, eventually, she would saw the woman grabbed the rope before she would quickly try to stand back up as she step backward few steps as she look down at her as she watch the doctor who slip out of the ring

Jackie would spread her arms as she taunt at Kaede, with a smug smile as she attempt to challenge the doctor to make the next move as she chuckles to herself softly before she would fold her arms once again

[ReticentCone]

"1!" The made the first count towards a count out for Kaede being outside of the ring.

Kaede's was greatly annoyed by Jackie's taunting and disappointed that she didn't follow out of the ring. Doctor. K.O. was hoping to brawl with the much lighter women in the significantly more dangerous environment outside of the ring to hurt her. But if the Bloody Maple was going to get her wish, she'd have to do a better job of baiting out her foe.

Doctor Kaede would make her way closer to one of the corners of the ring and hop onto the apron, still outside of the ropes.

"2!" Went the second count.

"Come out here and fight me, you brittle bitch!" Kaede would yell while gesturing for Jackie to come toward her.

If Jackie came close enough, Kaede would attempt to suddenly yank her against the ropes, before attempting to floor outside of the ring and grabbing a hold of her leg. If she was successful at that, The Bloody Maple would attempt to slam Jackie's knee against the ring post. Finally, she'd attempt to pull the green eyed woman out of the ring entirely.

[Void-Effect]

Jackie would never run from a challenge as she smirk and proceed to hop out of the ring and follow Kaede...only meet with a yank and had her leg grabbed as she felt it slammed against a ring post as she yell out in pain before she would felt herself being dragged out as she attempt to use her other leg to kick toward the doctor as her knees are aching in pain

She would attempt to crawl toward the corner and pull herself back up by grabbing the rope and ready herself as she wince in pain before she would attempt to use her free leg to kick at Kaede

[ReticentCone]

Kaede smiled as soon as she heard foe cry out in pain from having her knee slammed into the ring post, unfortunately for Doctor K.O. it was followed by her own helping pain after Jackie's wild kick managed to catch Kaede in the gut even as Jackie fell out of the ring. As Kaede caught her breath, Jackie begun pulling herself back up, her knees clearly hurting from Doctor Kaede's deliberate targeting of them. But before Kaede could target them for another stomp, Jackie would kick out Kaede and catch her in her gut again, pushing The Bloody Maple back and taking the wind out of her.

[Void-Effect]

Jackie would pants in pain as she manage to push Kaede back, send her backward as Jackie attempt to use the rope to pull herself back into the ring and pull herself back up, while her right leg isn't hurt bad, it still enough to cause her to have to hop slightly due to the pain, she just need to took few deep breath to ready herself before she would try to turn and focus on the doctor and ignore the arching leg, as she ready herself and face Kaede, since Kaede had her wind knocked out of her, Jackie would decide on a risky moves, she would turn around and run toward the rope before bounce back, aim to throw herself toward Kaede with a dropkick as she launch herself out of the ring and toward the Doctor

[ReticentCone]

Jackie's kick's continued to surprise Kaede with their force, as she found herself catching her breath for longer than she usually did. Her underestimation of Jackie mean't that she failed to sufficently brace herself. All of this gave the white haired woman all the time she needed to leap into the ring, bounce off the ropes and dropkick the Bloody Maple, again in the abdomen. Except this time, Doctor K.O. was ready for the impact, at least to her front. Unfortunately for Kaede, the kick also sent her back first into the barricades behind her, the impact certainly audible to the fans nearby, before Kaede would fall forward onto the ground in pain, reaching one hand behind her back.

[Void-Effect]

Jackie would pants as she manage to send Kaede to the barricade, yet of course, her move is also a risky one as she also landed on front of her due to her literally fly to Kaede, so once her kick meet the doctor, she would landed on her back as she hiss in pain before slowly attempt to pull herself back up and attempt to continues the match as she heard the countdown once again...she at least got another 15 second left as she attempt to walk toward Kaede and grab her by the hair and drag her to the corner before slam her head against the ring before try to throw her into the ring as she also roll into it

[ReticentCone]

Kaede used the moments that Jackie dragged her some to recover from the impact of both the kick and crashing into the boards. Soon enough her desire to hurt the lighter woman finally overcame the pain and she placed her hands down on the ring apron to stop Jackie from slamming her head into it. Next, she'd quickly attempt to grab and slam jackie's own head into the ring and then attempt to follow that up by swinging the white haired girl back first into a set of steel steps up against one of the ring posts.

[Void-Effect]

Jackie would grunt in her as her head meet the corner, and it's now Jackie's turn to become dazed as she groan in pain and hold her head before she would felt her head being grabbed and proceed to swing into the steel step as she yelp out in pain as she landed on her back as she slide down and sit there, hissing in pain as she held on her back, she would attempt to roll away and pull herself back up by grab onto the nearby ring as she shake her head and hiss in pain
