Viper Hoshiwara vs. Sachiko - Cage Match

[CaptainL]

Even when Sachiko was down, she was still determined to fight on - and she wasn't going to let anything stop her. Viper was just about to bring the sole of her boot down against her face, only for the white-haired girl to swing her arm up to block her just in time! Just then, Viper froze, turning her head down to watch her opponent with her eyes wide and blank in shock. Even when she rarely showed any emotion, even she couldn't help but be impressed when Sachiko parried her move as if it was as simple as breathing, and while she was in a vulnerable position to boot! If she could throw herself back into the fray so soon after taking a nasty fall, Sachiko had to be tough. Viper had to give that to her. But as impressive as it was, it was frustrating to the deathmatch veteran. She was here to make Sachiko suffer, and nothing seemed to be working!

With another shove of her arm, Sachiko sent Viper teetering back. She bent backward more and more, until at last she lost her footing and fell over on the mat in a seated position. The landing rattled Viper, leaving her gritting her teeth, but it wouldn't keep her down for long. She was determined that sooner or later, she'd get Sachiko to crack. It was only a matter of time.

Viper had no intentions of sitting around where Sachiko could so easily return fire. She rolled herself backward, looking to get a safe distance away before she clambored back to her feet. But as soon as she had righted herself, her eyes locked onto her opponent, and they narrowed with a piercing glare. Viper, too, was ready to run right back into the action! Looking to use her speed to her advantage, she took off toward Sachiko was quickly as she could, trying to dash into range so that she could grab Sachiko by the head and circle behind her in order to throw her off her feet with a slingblade!

Sachiko had caught a bullet with her arm in an excellent way, although her body was clearly expressing more than Sachiko did, her body sweating and she was panting a little, pushing Viper was a chance to recover, but it was clear that she would not give Sachiko so many chances, it seemed that Viper was already starting to realize that Sachiko would not even give her an easy fight.

So then when Sachiko got up from that attack, halfway Viper would go straight at her and explode a terrible move, making Sachiko go straight to the canvas, with her head hitting the canvas and bouncing, Sachiko would let out a little whimper from all that, but she only felt her body getting wet, so she would turn her body if she could, only to realize that her nose was dripping. ... of all the things that could happen, seeing Sachiko bleed with a move like that was surprising, but that didn't stop her, so she would try to get up, though exposing herself to Viper if she had intentions to attack.

[CaptainL]

So far, this match had been at a stalemate. At every twist and turn, Sachiko and Viper had been on equal footing with one another; as soon as one took advantage, the other was quickly able to catch up. Viper had to give the white-haired girl something for how much endurance she had if she was going to stand up to her, but at the same time, she was frustrated. She didn't come here for a stalemate. She came here to feel something - either the thrill of victory, or the peril that came from having to fight for her life. If things stayed stagnant, this wouldn't be worth her time. She needed to escalate the action! Sachiko would either adapt by getting even more aggressive, or she would fall before Viper. Either way, it was a win for her.

Luckily, Viper was just as quick as she was brutal. Before Sachiko could fully get centered on her feet, the deathmatch veteran took off after her, grabbing her by the head and slamming her into the mat face-first with a slingblade! A few of the fans winced at how hard Sachiko had landed, causing the canvas to shake against the force of the impact. Viper rolled over to her knees, dusting herself off as she picked herself back to her feet. Sachiko was soon to follow - but it was there that Viper saw that she had been bloodied. That hit had gotten to her. That meant Viper was taking things further after all. And when Sachiko was still lagging in getting her guard back up...it meant things could only ramp up from here.

Viper's face remained as static as ever, but inside, she was beginning to feel some measure of excitement. This match was going places! Like a shark smelling blood in the water, she latched onto her opponent's state, and it only made her want to take things even further, growing even more brutal in her aggression. She stormed closer to Sachiko, reaching out to grab her by the hair. If she could get a good hold, she would shove down on her head to force her to bend over. And if that worked, she would ram her knee up into her face, again and again!

[Lederface]

Sachiko was bleeding, even if it was only a nose that would soon recover, she indirectly showed the first sign of weakness, something that in this situation it was unthinkable that Sachiko could afford, causing her to start preparing to be even better.... Or more dangerous as they say.

When she was grabbed by the hair, Sachiko preferred not to say anything, so then when she saw they were both standing she didn't wait and threw herself against her, grabbing her by the waist and would try to lift her, no matter if she ended up with hair pulled out, Sachiko would fulfill the purpose, lift and run to throw Viper against the corner and hit that back in the worst way possible.

[CaptainL]

Viper wasn't about to waste a second. Sachiko had proven herself to be an unexpectedly durable foe - almost to a frustrating degree; the deathmatch veteran had thrown everything she could think of at her just to soften her up, and she had powered through everything as though it didn't slow her down at all. The match had been neck and neck from the moment it started, with the two girls on equal footing; every move one made seemed to be countered by the other with perfect precision. Viper didn't know how much it would take to get her foe to break. But at last, it seemed like she had done something - and she was ready to keep that up.

She stormed closer to Sachiko, grabbing her by the hair to haul her up. There, she was prepared to bludgeon her already bloodied face with a few knee strikes - but just as she raised a foot off the ground, Sachiko was again ready to strike! She grabbed Viper by the waist and hoisted her off the ground; Viper tried to snatch at Sachiko's hair to hold on, but from how forcefully she'd been yanked off the ground, her fingers tore through the strands! And Sachiko had already taken off, hurtling toward the corner - where she threw Viper up against the turnbuckles with enough force to rattle the cage!

A loud smack shot out from the impact, and Viper's back twisted into an arc; she let out a scream of pain before she began to sink lower, groaning in a daze. The blow had driven the air out of her lungs, leaving her chest deflating as she sank onto her shoulders. Upside down, with her legs draped over the ropes, Viper could only look up at the world around her through a haze, where everything seemed like it was spinning. The crowd was going wild now, cheering Sachiko for such an incredible reversal in the face of the pain she was in! But for now, it was Viper's turn to be left winded and open!

[Lederface]

Sachiko used her own disadvantage in one opportunity, so then with her opponent in front of her, Sachiko took it and smashed her opponent into the corner, seeing her in that situation...... It didn't make her happy, not in the least, but it helped to move this along.

So then with Viper in the corner, unable to respond for that attack, Sachiko grabbed Viper's head, pulling her from the corner to the ropes in her midsection, where she would grab her arm to throw her into the ropes in front of her in an Irish whip, so Viper would bounce off the ropes and upon returning Sachiko would use her speed to throw her out of the ring so her head would hit the cage and send the whole cage and the place reeling.

[CaptainL]

Viper had been through a lot of hard knocks in her career. She'd been slammed onto light tubes, tangled in barbed wire, thrown off of cages, and she liked to think that a lifetime of danger was going to toughen her up. But there were always some things nothing could prepare her for - and when Sachiko had rammed her into the corner, leaving her hanging upside down from the ropes, that had hurt. It wasn't the most spectacular or gruesome bump she had ever taken, but the force with which it landed was enough to leave her head spinning, and she sank lower into the mat with a low, muffled groan. That meant she was wide open for her opponent to do as she pleased - and Sachiko was ready to take advantage!

Grabbing Viper by the head, she was able to lift the green-haired girl to her feet; she teetered unsteadily back and forth, but she was still guided up enough for Sachiko to turn and fling her into the ropes! Before she could even summon enough sensation back into her legs, Viper was already off, going charging back into the ropes and landing against them with enough momentum to bounce her back. She began to shake herself out, trying to catch her bearings - but when she looked up, it was to see Sachiko coming straight at her, grabbing Viper to hurl her out of the ring!

At the sight of such a feat of strength from Sachiko, sending Viper flying, the crowd began to burst into cheers. Both girls were definitely taking this match to the next level - and with both of them so determined to outdo one another, they could hardly imagine what would happen next! It seemed impossible to top Sachiko's daring manuever...but Viper was going to try. As it turned out, she had just enough time to catch her breath as she ran into Sachiko's clutches. The white-haired girl might have been quick, but Viper was just as fast. She had been taken by surprise to see her hurtling toward the cage...but just then, her survival instincts kicked in. She reached out to grab onto the cage, her fingers grabbing the bars just before her head could make impact!

Even the same fans who had cheered Sachiko a moment before couldn't help but applaud such courage and quick thinking from Viper. For a moment, she hung from the bars, panting and groaning to collect herself after what had been a whirlwind of adrenaline. But Viper knew that when she was on the cage, she had the height advantage. And she was going to use that - she hurled herself off the cage with a backflip, prepared to slam onto Sachiko chest-first from the air with a swanton bomb!

Sachiko used the cards the right way, Viper was now in her hands, and when she turned against her and Sachiko grabbed her and threw..... Sachiko's eyes could see what she would call the desire to live....

Seeing her cling to the cage to avoid the blow was something Sachiko took too long and let Viper do, now Sachiko was in a bind, Viper had the height advantage and still retained the advantage in stamina, but when she jumped and could see what she would try to do, a war instinct would awaken at that moment, and without thinking she would raise her fists to cover her head, putting her feet somewhat behind her to receive the energy of the impact, the whole audience was waiting to see which strength would overcome the other in a moment that could be key in the fight, Viper's attack strength, or Sachiko's fierce defense.

[CaptainL]

It had only been by a narrow stroke of luck that Viper had stopped herself from coming crashing into the cage - at the last minute, she reached out and grabbed a hold of the chain links, leaving her suspended high above the ring. Now, it was her turn to strike next. And as her eyes wandered over the ring beneath her, they were quick to zero in on her target. Viper had made up her mind - she was going to use her altitude to deliver her next attack with brutal force! It would surely be a risk, throwing herself from the cage into a plummet even steeper than one from the top rope, and using herself as a projectile to bowl her foe over. But Viper had no qualms about that. She lived for the sense of danger - it was one of the only sensations that could make her feel alive. She was willing to throw caution to the wind, and there were no lengths she wouldn't go to dominate her opponents!

A fair few fans gasped as Viper kicked off the cage, hurling herself down toward the ring, and prepared to crash into Sachiko. If the white-haired girl got out of the way, the impact would have stunned Viper - but the deathmatch veteran didn't appear to give that any concern at all. It was a risk she was willing to take. But Sachiko wasn't dodging, even when she had plenty of time to get out of the way. What was, perhaps, even more surprising than Viper's means of attack was how her opponent responded to them. Even when Viper was coming toward her like a cannonball, with all her momentum behind her...Sachiko was ready to tank it, putting up her arms and hoping for the best!

Since Sachiko had been able to raise a guard, her forearms were able to absorb some of the impact. But even if the swanton bomb hadn't landed at full force, it was no less powerful! As the two fighters collided, Sachiko would find herself bowled off her feet, thrown to her back by the force of the landing. Viper didn't even care that she had gotten her guard up; all that would do was prolong her torment. Grumbling with frustration, she rolled over to prop herself up on her hands and knees, shaking the cobwebs out of her head as she assumed a mounted position on top of Sachiko. And from there, she would start raining more punches into her face! If Sachiko was going to try and resist, Viper would just fight harder!

[Lederface]

Sachiko could so easily have taken off and gained a free attack opportunity from Viper, but if she wanted to give him a message, she had to show him that fear did not exist in either of them, and clearly when Sachiko was hit, Viper and she went straight to the ground, although clearly she had avoided %70 of the damage she could have received, she was still a little hurt and her arms were a little damaged, but the biggest punishment was that Viper got on top of her, and at that moment her arms would have to do Sachiko a big favor.

Soon Viper began an endless wave of blows for Akiko, and almost instantly was that the white-haired girl put her arms together near the face, covering the blows, but of course this defense would only be temporary, it was almost impossible to withstand too much at that pace, so Sachiko would count in her mind, until a blow came, and she would open her defense to take it and bring Viper closer to her, if her plan worked, an elbow against Viper's nose by her other arm would try to hit at full speed, the risk was never a problem for Sachiko, even when it seemed that she was losing.
