Rekindled Rivalry

[Ghost]

It had been quite the week for Karina. She had been on a shopping spree to get things in order for next month, not to mention talking with old relatives about what was going to happen and if they could show up. The majority of the work week had been filled with those kinds of things, together with a match here and there but never really truly time for some training of her own, perhaps even ask someone for a spar so she could keep in shape and learn some new moves by practicing them. It was obvious that lately Karina has been trying out new things, no longer content with just spearing, slamming or engaging in tests of strengths, definitely when the latter wasn't always welcomed by her opponents whom will try to avoid Karina's strength and go for a cheap attack during it.

When she finally had time to plan some free time in the weekend, word has reached her from a very, very old rival from her school years. Looking back, currently her biggest rival was also her lover, but if she went outside of the wrestling federation, there was someone who went even beyond her starting career, who had left their last fight with crushing Karina within her arms and really make a prime example why Karina sought to get stronger. She decided against getting one of her friends to spar with her and instead she opted to go for that same girl. After all, what better way to get to know eachother again than by doing what they both still loved?

She entered the empty gym, tying up her hair in a neat ponytail so it wouldn't get in the way, though it was still quite lengthy cause of the length of Karina's hair which she still refused to cut after all those problems with hair tugging or using it as a leash. It just meant that she had to make sure it wouldn't happen again! She made her way to the ring, though opted not to get inside and instead she stood next to it, dropping her duffle bag and knelt down to open it and fetch a bottle of water, twisting the cap open and would take a slow sip. She might as well wait for rival first, wondering just how she looked like now. Mostly she remembered of Joan back then was her uniquely colored hair and hair, along with a chest that was even bigger than Karina's pair! The very thought made her twitch, though she was going to be somewhat friendly for now considering it's been so many years!

[Devastated]

As she had promised when she left Japan, one day Jeanne would reach out to Karina. Once she had made her way into the country she sent Karina word on Line to meet up. They had a brief text based conversation which had them decided that the best way to reconnect would be with a spar. It took Joan a bit to find the location as she had done most of her contracting over the phone or over the net, now she found herself looking for the LAW gym complex and while the Taxi driver could easily find the wrestling stage and all of that, but they had a harder time finding the gym complex. Though they knew the street it was at, they didn't know exactly...so Joan had to walk to around a bit to find it. She would have arrived a fair bit before Karina if that hadn't been the case, but now she arrived a few minutes after her old rival.

She stepped into the gym complex and heading to the locker room right away. She changed into her workout attire and stuffed her clothes into a dufflebag. She removed a water bottle from her bag alongside a towel which she slung over her shoulder. Walking out to the gym, she would scan the area...there was almost no one around. In fact it was dead, it seemed as if Karina had picked a perfect time of the day for the two of them. The purple haired woman began to head towards the ring, seeing a woman she could give an educated guess was Karina. It had been a little over 6 years since they saw each other, but she recognized that strong bod and beastly aura anywhere.

Dropping her dufflebag in front of Karina, Joan would smile and give Karina a hug. " Hey Rina. It's been a while." Joan let out as she gave Karina a firm hug, releasing her rival as she would take a step back and then look Karina up and down. " Wow, you've certainly been keeping in shape."

Karina's head tilted up the moment someone joined her in the gym, it didn't take long for Karina to register who it was, mainly because of the color. That bright purple combinations of eyes and braided hair, which now many could even pull off with fake coloring. She would straighten herself back up onto her feet, taking a rather tall stance while the woman approached and moved in to wrap those arms around Karina, pulling her into a nice, firm hug which Karina responded with a tight hug of her own. Well, a full body to body press wasn't exactly what she expected so soon.. But it didn't feel to bad despite it coming from an old time rival.

" That is has.. Seems you never stopped training either.. Nor developing. " Her eyes trailed down to the woman's chest, then further down to her tummy and thighs. Joan definitely was a looking despite the sport she was training in, not to mention she had quite the chest on her! She would wrap her own arms underneath her chest, nodding to herself as she waited until Joan had settled in before she would speak once again. " Seems we'll have a good time. " She teased, her eyes coming back up to properly face Joan.

[Devastated]

After the hug, Joan would notice that Karina was checking her out. Seeing those eyes trail down and become fixated on her chest a bit. Joan would clear her throat and then straighten up a bit. Tilting her head to the side, Joan would smirk, then turned around. Climbing up onto the ring apron and then into the ring. She'd back up a bit and give Karina room to enter the squared circle.

" I'm sure we will. After all, if you're as strong as you look then maybe you even have a chance of beating me." Joan joked as she gestured for Karina to enter the ring. " Though I plan on squeezing you into submission just like last time." The purple haired newcomer confidently spoke as she placed her hands on her hips.

[Ghost]

Karina knew her targets, though there was definitely envy when it came to certain features. She would bring her gaze low as Joan turned and climbed the ring, sighing out of frustration and shaking her head before she would make her way to the ring and would roll underneath the bottom ropes, getting inside with her old rival and pushed herself up onto her feet. This was going to a spar, yet she knew that when it came to certain people, even friendly fights were going to be a example of both their strengths and skills.. This was definitely going to be one of them.

" ..I'm all about strength, which is something you will find out when I am slowly overpowering and bringing you to your knees, Joan. " She replied, moving to the center of the ring and taking a moment to stretch and roll her shoulders, though that last part definitely struck a nerve, bringing her full attention back to Joan and gave her a rather irritated glare! " ..Thanks for making it certain how I am going to make YOU submit. Time for you to be tasting my bearhugs. " With that, she would do one last stretch and waited for Joan to get ready.

[Devastated]

Joan smirked a bit as she seemed to have riled Karina up. It was 100% intentional. She remembered how much fun it could be to get Karina worked up, all those memories came flooding back of their previous bouts. Joan was certain that this was going to be a fun spar, but she also knew that she would have to give it her all or Karina would just run right over her. With how strong Karina seemed, she figured they'd be about as even as they were back in those old high-school days...though she could only judge that based on their physique.

When it came to skill, she would have to see if Karina had kept up with her. Smirking a bit as she would bounce on her feet. " Hah, you want to try beating me with a bearhug?" Joan asked as she raised and eyebrow. She would walk right up to Karina as she stretched out a bit, when she reached her so their large busts were touching. The British woman would nod her head, "Then why wait?" She'd wrap her arms around Karina's waist and pull her in for a close hug, bust to bust, and abs to abs. Though she didnt squeeze yet. " Let's see who's got the best bearhug." Joan said with a wink of her eye, waiting for Karina to accept her challenge.

[Ghost]

After one last stretch, she noticed Joan coming closer and it wasn't long until something that almost seemed like tradition for Karina, would happen. She brought her arms back to her sides when the woman just pressed right up against her, confident as always that Karina would perhaps back down from the body pressing, though Karina would press right into Joan to make sure those breasts would bulge, which was certainly not the only time it would happen in this spar. She would wrap her own arms around Joan, giving her a glance when the woman proposed to start things off with a bearhug, something Karina was rather confident winning.

" Fine with me. Not letting you think you can beat me at my own game. " She replied, keeping a firm hold around Joan's body to keep her close, waiting for her rival to get ready so they could start the squeezing contest. That said, being so close to her and getting ready for a mutual bear hu was going to take a bit to get used to, her face turning a slight shade of red that she was trying to ignore! Her hand locked around the other wrist and she nodded. " ..Ready when you are. "

[Devastated]

Joan certainly was surprised at her old rival. As she stepped right up to her and pressed their generous racks together. The Karina she knew from the past would usually shy away from such a position, but right now it seemed almost as if her old rival was embracing it. Raising an eyebrow, Joan had to say that she was impressed that Karina had grown. She couldn't wait to actually get to wrestling with her...excitement was building up.

The glance that Karina gave her, caused Joan to smile a bit. She felt the arms of her rival start to wrap around her and now that they were both in the right position for this little duel that Joan had proposed. The English woman would catch the sight of a faint tint of red on Karina's cheek when they were hugging each other, maybe Karina hadn't fully grown out of it, letting out a soft sigh, Joan would nod her head. " Ready."

She waited a second or two before she would start to squeeze. Her arms flexed as she pulled Karina's body in closer to hers, squeezing upon it as she started their bearhug duel. Forcing their generous breasts to mash up tightly against one another as their abs pressed together.

[Ghost]

To have Joan pressed up against her already was going to be a little distracting, at least until the actual match between them would happen. It was a spar but when it came to Joan, a rival whom she hasn't faced off for a long while, it also meant she still had to show off her strength in any form possible, which was going to be a bearhug this time, something Karina was almost unrivaled it were it not for the person she was applying it to.. Had defeated her in the past in one.

Things were going to be different today and once Joan was ready to begin and applied pressure, Karina would answer in kind, tightening her arms around Joan's body to started squeezing Joan even closer against her, really pitting the fronts of their bodies together and quickly making it turn into a heated experience between the two. " ..Feel free to give up whenever it's too much. " Karina still replied with a tease while she cranked up her own pressure to start digging into Joan with a lot more power than before.

[Devastated]

Joan had anticipated Karina would have trained and grown a lot since their last encounter. After all that was quite a few years ago now. Judging by Karina's physique she was in the best condition she could be. That only spurred Joan on though, she wanted to duel with her rival again, in this bearhug contest which she had put forward. She wanted to see if she could still match Karina, if she could still beat her.

When the contest started, their bodies pressed firmly together. Pushed right up against one another as those generously sized breasts mashed together. Mushrooming against the other's pair. Abs began to push and rub together, all the while the arms of Karina and Joan began to flex. Clicking her tongue a little, Joan felt Karina begun to ramp up the pressure, and she had no intention of being outdone. The purple haired woman would begin to squeeze tighter and tighter, matching Karina beat for bear. Until she would began to ramp up more, she herself trying to squeeze harder and show Karina what kind of power she had to bring to the table.

" You as well dear..."
