The Street Dogs Vs. Diluc Ragvindr & Nashi Dragneel: Burning Grudges

[Deskfan45]

Tag Match
Win by Pinfall, Submission, or Knockout

Skylar sighed heavily rubbing her hands across her face. "Cecilia... I don't mean to get all high and mighty here, and I'm still gonna go out and fuck shit up like I always do, but for fuck's sake man. A girl got a win over you on a technicality, and you decide to corner her in the locker room to try and break her legs?" It was a rare sight to see Skylar Jones as the voice of reason between the two Street Dogs, but the moment Cecilia told her the backstory behind the match they were about to wrestle, the brawler needed to speak her mind. "That shit's petty and insecure, and you're better than that." She said solemnly, giving her friend some straight talk. God, those words sounded so familiar. Friends wiser than her had said it to her many times. Perhaps she was mimicking them without thinking about it. Of course, Sky had rolled her eyes every time she heard them, and she imagined Cecilia would too, but as long as they made it to her head, maybe they'd do something. Their music started, and Skylar got on her feet. "Anyway... let's make hell." She gave Cecilia a reassuring smile, offering a fist bump.

Ladies and gentleman, this is a tag team bout set for ONE FALL! Coming to the ring first, at a combined weight of 297 pounds, the team of Cecilia Lombard and Skylar Jones, THE STREEEEET DOOOOGS!!!!!"

Music

Skylar Jones

With the sound of a gunshot ringing throughout the stadium, the Street Dogs's music began as Skylar and Cecilia made their way down to the ring. The audience showered them in jeers. Sky bobbed her head left and right with a smile as she walked, middle fingers up. She entered the ring, climbed onto the middle turn buckle, and bowed, mocking the crowd as they waited for their opponents.

Cecilia grumbled to herself, her arms folded in her lap, and as she let out a long, low exhale, she let her body sink into the bench she was sitting on. She didn't take too kindly to being reminded of her defeat to Nashi Dragneel - where she had been about to claim victory, right when the referee declared that she was out of the ring one second too long, and issued a disqualification just as she was getting to safety. She knew she had unfinished business, but everything seemed to conspire to keep her away from settling it. Astrid Ostberg, acting as judge, had pulled her away from Nashi when she tried to carry on the beating after the match, and when she tried to confront Nashi again in the locker rooms it had been the pink-haired idol brat's boyfriend who got in the way. Cecilia knew she was owed victory, and she wasn't about to let it slip through her fingers. But come tonight, Nashi wasn't going to be able to run any more. They would settle it all in the ring - and nothing would stop her.

Not even Skylar, who - in a rare moment of lucidity - was chiding Cecilia about getting carried away with her desire to revenge. "This is Apex we're talking about, you know," she said with a groan - as Skylar would know herself, the idea of proving herself through making it to contendership for the Openweight Championship was important to Cecilia. She needed to show the world what she was capable of, and she wasn't going to tolerate having that cut short by an idol who got a lucky streak. "Don't act like you wouldn't do the same..."

But soon, the music started. Cecilia knew this was no time for bickering. She sat up straighter, showing Skylar a nod to signal she was ready -they might not have seen eye to eye, but at the end of the day, they were still a team. Then, she would head to the ring, following closely behind Skylar. Although Sky shot back at the same fans who booed her, mocking their jeers and throwing up middle fingers, Cecilia was more reserved in her response, walking at a brisk pace, her eyes focused on the ring in an unblinking and unwavering glare. When she stepped up to the apron, her eyes narrowed as she looked back toward the ramp. It wasn't the fans she had her special place in hell reserved for tonight.

Diluc half expected Cecilia's challenge to not come to pass, fully expecting that someone jumping others in the locker rooms would be satisfied with simple scare tactics. Now however the day of the fight came and he found himself worried. Not really about the opponents, he could handle more vicious fights but this being a tag match and his partner being Nashi meant he didn't have to worry just about his own safety.

None of this would however be easily visible on his face as he took on his usual impassive expression. Slowly getting up after he heard their opponents making their entrance. He stretched a little before looking at Nashi and saying"Ok, let's do this... And, please, try to be careful" a slight hint of his feelings now seeping through just before he heard the staff wave them over to make their entrance.

"And their opponents, at the combined weight of 325 lbs - Diluc Ragvindr and Nashi Draganeel."

Diluc

As they made their way to the ring the crowd's reaction would be more subdued, after all at least Diluc was relatively unknown to the fans. Not that it mattered to him as he would make his way down the ramp and into the ring without much flourish, already focusing only on the match itself.

Nashi was getting ready for her first ever tag match without Yukino. In retrospect while it was with the man she loved…. It didn’t feel the same to her. Nashi was putting her hair into a ponytail while stretching. She turned over and saw Diluc looking in the distance. She couldn’t tell if he was lost in thought or worried about the upcoming bout. When he stood up and heard what he said she whispered back”don’t worry we can handle these two jerks” She gave him a confident look before they walked to the entrance ramp.


Nashi would come out to the top ramp with the red haired boy and gave him a kiss on the cheek. She would hold his hand before they got into the ring. Once in Nashi would turn and wrap her arms around his neck”go kick some butt knight of justice

She teased him before giving him a kiss on the lips. Then Nashi would step outside the ring and let Diluc start it off.

Skylar paced around the ring as her and Cecilia's foes arrived. Some dumb ass pop princess and her boyfriend who wore a bra for some reason. She burst out laughing. "This, combined with the woman who is legally named Ducky? You got beef with the weirdest people." She said to Cecilia, not taking her opponents seriously in the slightest. She was gonna tear these clowns to pieces. When Diluc joined her in the ring, she flashed him a wicked grin. What was that his girl just called him!? My fuckin' god! She snickered at the nickname. "Ay there, Knight. Ready to go?" She said mockingly, cracking her knuckles.

DING DING DING!!!

The bell rang, signalling the two teams to tear into each other. Sky stepped towards Diluc, putting up her arms for a collar and elbow tie up. If her opponent locks up with her, she puts all her force into pushing him back. She wanted to see which of the two of them was stronger, and if that were her, she had the full intention of humiliating Diluc!

[CaptainL]

Cecilia couldn't help but smirk, crossing her arms and settling into her corner. It seemed as though Skylar had just as little respect for their opponents as she did, and she couldn't blame her, given how nauseatingly sweet the two of them were being. "Knight of Justice?" She had to gag just thinking about it. That being said, when Skylar teased her about her penchant for getting into feuds with weird people, she let out a groan. "The name isn't her fault, but...can't exactly disagree." She rolled her eyes, glancing off with a huff. She had to give that one to Skylar.

When the bell rang, it was Skylar who seemed the most eager to enter the match, and Cecila wouldn't get in the way of it. After all, Sky was her secret weapon, and the very threat she had held over Nashi's head. Now, it was time to let her do the dirty work, while Cecilia would hang back and watch. Her turn would come, she was sure.

Diluc could bearly stop himself from rolling his eyes at both how strangely excited Nashi seemed to be and their opponent's response. "right... Cause, you two are such great examples of normalcy..." passed through his mind as he waited for the two to be done talking. "If you two are done wasting breath, then let's get to it." He said rolling his shoulder and getting to the center.

Seeing how Skyler offered a lock-up, he would accept the challenge, feeling the push against him, he would shift his legs and stay put before trying to push back at his opponent.

[Deskfan45]

Skylar laughed at Diluc's comment. Ohhhhhh, even if he and his girl were undoubtedly the good guys here, it was gonna be so much fun to hurt them. A question was on Sky's mind, one that put a a malicious smile on her lips: How much punishment would this Knight of Justice have to take before it became too much for him, before Skylar could force him to tag out, throwing his girlfriend into the line of fire to save his own skin?

The two combatants locked up in the middle of the ring, Skylar gripping the back of Diluc's neck tightly as she put all her strength into pushing him back. For the time being though, they seemed to be equal in raw power. Skylar's muscles strained against the redhead's own, determined to prove herself the stronger of the two.

[ThatPolishDude]

They continued to struggle, both tensing against the other with all their might but no inch would be given in either direction. It started to be clear that they would be getting nowhere by just continuing like this and so Diluc decided that a change of plans was in order. He would retract some, bending his legs before giving Skyler a shove to break them apart. Then he would raise his right hand and bring it down in a chop aimed squarely at her chest.

[Deskfan45]

Skylar was a very strong woman. She was near the top of the middleweight division, and was one of, if not the most powerful women in the weight class. She had proven herself capable of tossing around heavyweights, and rumors spread among the LAW locker room that she had once been seen bench pressing 700 pounds. In reality, it was only 70 pounds, but it was quite the flattering tall tale. Even still, with all of Sky's exceptional raw power, Diluc seemed to match her perfectly, neither wrestler able to so much as move the other! Sky grunted in frustration, gnashing her teeth. As if in mutual agreement, the two shoved each other back, and Diluc gave Skylar a hard chop to her chest!

"GRRRRGHH-!" Sky groaned in pain, focusing her eyes on Diluc. "That the best ya got, Knight!? HUH!?" She roared, pressing her forehead into his before leaning back and returning the favor, putting all her might into a wicked chop of her own, aimed squarely at the man's chest!
