A Hard Knock Lesson: Alizeh Midori vs Harukawa Reimu

[Bare]

Standard Match: Winner to be determined by pinfall, submission, or ko

Alizeh smiled softly to herself as she stretched and got ready backstage for her match. Being a woman with a lot on her plate Alizeh was usually the first to accept a new challenge on top of it all, if for no other reason than to push herself. Or in this case to push others. A week ago she had put out an open challenge on twitter for any young lioness or rookie wrestler to challenge her to a match and rather quickly it had been answered by one Harukawa Reimu, a promising candidate from the young lioness program, exactly the kind of person Alizeh was hoping would answer. So now, the match was set and Alizeh was looking forward to seeing just what this lioness could do.

Music starting and being heralded with the crackle of lightning Alizhe would come out from the back as her name was announced through the speakers, causing the fans to cheer and clap wildly for the rising star. Tonight, given it was a more casual match than her last few bouts, Alizeh had decided to sport a outfit different from the usual being her dark purple and black look. A good, underrated choice for her as far as she was concerned. Strutting down the ramp and high fiving those in attendance Alizeh would hop onto the ring apron and vault over the top rope to land in a crouching pose for the fans to cheer and clap. Getting up Alizeh would turn and focus on the top of the arena, waiting for her younger opponent to arrive with great eagerness.

Reimu knew she have to take her chance. When an opportunity opens up, she should take it. And now, with the woman who fought her friend that came into LAW before her sets an open challenge. She knew she had to answer that. And with the match being set today. She readies herself backstage. Remembering the lessons she learned, she's set to make her mark in facing one of the prominent faces in LAW. Clad in her plain white one piece outfit. She clapped her cheeks as she heard the music for Young Lioness entrance starts up.

Reimu walked out to the stage and stood there as the fans cheered for her. Taken aback slightly at the cheer, she smiled back and waved at the fans before raising her arms up and flexed her biceps to the fans. Showing her upper body strength in appearance which the fans cheered out loudly at her showing. Taking a deep breath, she then marches down the ramp. Making a steady pace towards the ringside. Reimu walks along the ringside and took the steps up to the apron. Not forgetting to slide her boots at the apron before going through the ropes and enter the ring. She turned her gaze around and bowed to the crowd before making her way to her corner.

Reimu then turned her attention towards Alizeh. Bowing down to her in respect first thing before opening her mouth. "I'm truly honored to be in this ring against you." She said with a smile. "I hope Sanae-chan is watching us somewhere, let's have a great match together!"

Alizeh smiled as she heard the entrance music of the young lionesses program startup before getting just a bit more hyped seeing her opponent come up through the curtains. Alizeh always found interest in people willing to challenge themselves and take initiative, which was a big part of the reason for her open challenge on social media. So when she learned that the girl who answered it was actually a close friend of Alizeh's friend and tag partner Sanae, well lets just say her expectations were definitely set.

Nodding at the girl as she entered and bowed Alizeh couldn't help but bashfully chuckle at the girl as she stood back up. "Hey hey no need for the formality, I'm just excited to see what you can do!" Alizeh said before smiling a touch softer. "Also trust me, I'm sure Sanae is watching this match with vested interest." She said with a nod before approaching the center of the ring and holding her hands out to the brunette.

"So lets get started with a classic yeah?" Alizeh asked eagerly with a grin on her face as the bell rang, officially starting the match, with Alizeh inviting Reimu to meet in her in a test of strength to get things going between them!

Reimu nodded with a smile as Alizeh welcomed her warmly and in a less formal manner. "Right... I'm going to give it my all." She let out as she walked to the center of the ring to meet with Alizeh. "Please don't hold back for me, Alizeh-senpai." She requested, seeing this match as a chance to prove herself against a more prominent opponent. She wanted this to be a match that she can look back fondly no matter the result.

Spreading her hands out as the bell rings. Reimu took a deep breath as she then seized both Alizeh's hands. Marching forward with a stomp as she pushes forward and put a lot of her strength to pressure Alizeh and seize her advantage. Her hands gripping onto Alizeh's strongly, intent on overwhelming the green haired woman with her strength as she pressed down and trying to force her to kneel. All the while keeping her eyes straight glaring intently onto Alizeh's.

Alizeh would smile and nod at Reimu, glad to see the girl coming out of her shell a bit after her little dash of encouragement to the young lioness. Nodding as she heard her request of not holding back on her Alizeh would bounce on her heels a bit before holding her hands up and stepping closer to the center of the ring in unison with Reimu. "I wouldn't dare hold back so no worries." Alizeh said as she approached and clasped hands with Reimu!

As she did so however Alizeh's eyes would soon widen in shock, because the moment they began pushing Alizeh found herself nearly totally overwhelmed! Only saved thanks to her instincts Alizeh would plant her heels down into the mat, stopping herself and readjusting her strength to push back on Reimu! In truth Alizeh only pushed forward with enough strength as she thought to match a girl of Reimu's size, but that strength on display was far beyond what a girl like Reimu should be capable of!

Even now that she had doubled down on the force she was pushing with Alizeh still found herself struggling, gritting her teeth as she pushed to match Reimu's strength, only barely managing to fend her opponent off, but for how long? Because the more time passed the more Alizeh was starting to realize she likely wasn't going to overpower the lioness!

Reimu was driven to prove herself in this match. Giving Alizeh one hell of a match would prove quite well on what potential she could have! And to find herself almost overwhelming Alizeh in the test of strength. Even for a small lightweight, Reimu have quite the strength comparable to at least a heavyweight.

Gritting her teeth as she grunts out, she is determined to push Alizeh down. And so, Reimu stepped forward and starts pushing on Alizeh further, trying to force her to lean back and lower down to the canvas. Properly having a platform to showcase her strength, Reimu is going to seize this chance and making sure everyone could see for themselves. That this Young Lioness is here to make her mark!

When she accepted Reimu as her open challenge opponent Alizeh didn't know what to expect given she hadn't seen the young lioness in action before. But color Alizeh impressed once they locked up in a test of strength, only to quickly find herself on the back end, struggling to keep up in the contest of raw power, even despite the weight and size advantage Alizeh had!

As such, she started to bend back, losing the test of strength outright! 'Alright time to make the most of this.' Alizeh thought to herself, recognizing at this point she was losing the test of strength, but she was able to turnt his lemon into lemonade. As she was forced to bend further and further back Alizeh would lean her head back, bracing it against the mat before her shoulders followed after, then, immediately after Alizeh would lift her legs up, pushing them against Reimu's hips before leaning back and pushing her legs out to monkey flip the lightweight over her!

[LowDefinition]

Reimu knows she should make the most of what she have. And with her strength, this is all she could do to let the world know that she's not your typical lightweight. Overpowering Alizeh almost easily as she pushed her down onto the canvas. She haven't though on what she'd do next when she finally dominated Alizeh onto the canvas.

As such, she didn't expect Alizeh's craftiness in turning the disadvantage around as she found Alizeh's foot planted onto her waist. "Huh...?" She stopped pushing in her surprise as Alizeh started to roll back and pushes her leg forward. Prompting Reimu to let go of Alizeh's hands as she was tossed and flipped over. Landing onto the canvas on her back with a thud, Reimu raise herself up to sit as she held onto her back. "Ow... I didn't expect that..." She lamented as she lays to the side while holding her back.

Surprisingly Alizeh had gotten very, very close to losing that test of strength. Made even more shocking by the fact that Reimu was so small and lithe, not the type you'd expect to be so powerful. Luckily Alizeh wasn't so easily overwhelmed and countered with a timely monkey flip that sent the girl up and over her while Alizeh kipped back up to her feet with a grin.

Looking over her shoulder and seeing the brunette on her side Alizeh got an idea as then took off in a run at the ropes. Turning and looking to bounce off them Alizeh would go running at her opponent, dropping down as she approached to try and drive her feet into Reimu's spine with a baseball slide drop kick!

[LowDefinition]

Even though Reimu managed to surprise Alizeh and the crowd with her strength despite her small body. That advantage was easily flipped around, literally. Reimu was late to notice it and thus was tossed up to the air and flipped over. Next time she got into this, she have to make note of this for her next matches...

Planting her arm onto the canvas. Reimu slowly pushes herself up, but... even with the canvas stomps that gave it away that Alizeh was approaching her. Reimu couldn't really do something about it, and then!!!

"Gwah!!!" Reimu yelped out as she felt Alizeh's feet thrusted onto her back! The impact forced her to roll away as she reactively held onto her back again. Stopping her roll as her arm was hooked onto the bottom rope. She looked up to Alizeh, her mouth shut as she held onto the stinging pain on her back. She then pushes herself up slowly with the help of the ropes. "Amazing... So this is senpai not holding back..." She let out as she recovered back to her feet.
