Isabella Brandt Vs. Minerva Darque -Through Fire and Shadows (Apex Qualifier Match)

[Devastated]

The Flame Tyrant stepped forward and performed what many might see as a cruel move, as she would kick at Minerva's hurting leg. Isabella was after all a firm believer in what she considered a true battle. Which meant that she was willing to exploit her opponents weakness when she found one, or if she had made one. That was how you truly honored an opponent, by using whatever you could which was still within the confines of the rules in order to win. That was how Isabella saw it.

When she was on her knee, she was easy pickings for that kneeling DDT! Isabella laid back for a second as she looked over at the laid out form of Minerva. The prideful blonde would move up to her knees and attempt to roll Minerva over onto her back, trying to then drag Minerva over towards the center of the ring, where she would try and raise the head of the Goth Blonde, Isabella sought to wrap her pale white limbs around that head of Minerva's. Trying to cross one leg over the other as she aimed to lock in a Figure Four Headlock on the fellow ringlet blonde.

"You seem out of depths, Miss Draque. Weren't you going to humiliate me?" Isabella mocked as she would flex her thighs and begin to squeeze rather harshly upon that head.

With a leg in quite a lot of pain, Minerva was quickly taken down to one knee from the strike that her foe threw at her leg, just to be set up in position to have her head drilled into the canvas for a nasty DDT, scrambling her thoughts and leaving her laid out on the canvas! And Isabella wasn't done just yet, as she would get down next to the goth blonde, taunting her as she wrapped her legs around the neck of the stunned woman, Minerva letting out a gasp as she was yanked into a figure four headlock, letting out a hiss as Isabella began to squeeze her neck!

"Ggghh... nnnnngh!" Minerva gasped, face turning red as her eyes shot open wide, reaching up and grabbing at Isabella's limbs as she tried to pull them off, finding herself getting choked out by her foe as she was trying to recover!

[Devastated]

The legs of the wrestler from Verona would start to tighten, coiling around the neck of Minerva like a python, They'd constrict and squeeze. Flexing as the blonde tried to put the Goth through one hell of a submission move. She would feel Minerva squirm and struggle, those hands of the Goth came up and pried at her legs...but Isabella wasn't about to let up! Not this easily.

She would prop herself up a bit, moving her hand behind her back as she would start to lift her hips up a bit. Aiming to make the hold even more painful and frustrating for Minerva to deal with. After a few more seconds of this, the referee would move in next to the two battling blondes and ask if Minerva wanted to submit.

" Yes, how about it Minerva Draque. Do you concede?" Isabella would almost command of Minerva.

Folded over on the floor after the DDT, Isabella was quick to capitalize on the weakened state of her opponent, getting down on the mat and behind Minerva in order to wrap her legs around the goth's neck, quickly locking in a figure four headscissor, one that left her poor Minerva's face turning bright red! She hissed and gasped and pawed at Isabella's legs, but having the air squeezed out of her really made it hard for her to gather any strength to get up and fight her off, and her blonde foe knew that was the case as she cockily asked for a submission!

"Ggggghhh... Nnnnngh! Guuuhh..." Minerva groaned, unable to even get words out at this point, her body twisting and turning wildly as she tried to escape, running out of steam fast!

[Devastated]

Isabella was clearly not showing any mercy tonight, as she wrapped her legs around Minerva's neck and began to squeeze. The dazed Goth was trapped and her strength was being sapped by the Flame Tyrant's hold. Isabella would feel how Minerva weakly pawed at her legs and struggled, shifting and twisting from left to right. It all served to make the Figure-four headscissor a rather difficult one to keep locked in. It forced the currently dominant blonde to click her tongue a bit, and she began to weigh her options.

After a few seconds more of having Minerva trapped in the hold. She would decide to unwrap her legs. She'd push up to her knees and then try and reach for a handful of Minerva's blonde locks, trying to pull the Goth up towards her feet. Looking to guide her to a stand, facing the red and black dressed wrestler. Isabella would try and wrap her arms around Minerva's body and then try and lift the slightly bigger wrestler up and spin them around, looking to drop the Goth down with a Belly-to-Belly suplex!

[ADarlingDucky]

Choked by her prim and proper foe, Minerva hissed and squirmed within her grasp, but there was nothing that she could do as the energy was quickly leaving her body, but Minerva would finally find some relief when her foe would suddenly release her from the hold, freeing the goth before yanking her up! Minerva, quite winded by this point, was able to be easily yanked up by her opponent, and despite her want to fight back, it seemed Isabella was too fast, wrapping her arms around Minerva's waist as she began to recover to swing her up and over with a belly-to-belly suplex!

"Waaah! UUGH!" Minerva yelped as her feet left the canvas, before she was swiftly returned to it, landing hard on her back and nearly bouncing from the impact, left lying breathless as her foe suplexed her with great ease!

[Devastated]

Pulling the Goth up towards her feet, the blonde wrapped her arms around her blonde opponent's body and then threw her down. Slamming her onto the canvas with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex! A smirk on her face as she would remain on top of Minerva for a second or two. She'd reach up and take a handful of that blonde mane of the Goth's and then rise up, looking to turn pull Minerva up to her feet and then turn her so she was facing away from her.

Isabella would then try and wrap herself up with Minerva from behind, arms snaking their way around her head and then looking to bend Minerva to the side, trying to stretch the goth girl's belly out as she sought to lock in an abdominal stretch!

[ADarlingDucky]

Minerva was quite a mess when Isabella would yank her up to her feet, before wrapping her arms around the goth woman's waist and swinging her up and over, slamming her to the mat with a belly to belly suplex! The impact knocked the air right out of her lungs, and she was left breathless when Isabella approached her to pull her up again, only a low groan signaling her resistance, but she was back on her feet before she knew it! And of course, Isabella was quick to wrap her body around Minerva's, yanking on Minerva's head to fully lock in the hold and twist her core, sending waves of pain shooting through her body!

"Aaaaaaahhh! Let... go!" Minerva yelped as her body was stretched out in a awfully painful way, her free hand flying down to pry at Isabella's legs and arms, doing her best to get the woman off of her, though it wasn't going well so far!

[Devastated]

Isabella was firmly in the driver's seat of this match, as the prim and proper knightess of Verona had the goth blonde under control. She pulled Minerva up to her feet and began to lock her up into that abdominal stretch! Pulling and stretching out that core of the fellow blonde. A slight smirk on her face as she heard the yelps and screams of Minerva.

The hands of her opponent reached down and pried at her limbs, but the attempts were weak. Isabella decided to punish Minerva for trying to break free with the proper determination. Increasing the stretch a bit, Isabella would try and cause even more pain to Minerva's core.

" You're going to have to try harder than that, Miss Draque. After all, you said you'd humiliate me...but that doesn't seem to be going your way now, is it?" Isabella mocked her foe. Feeling more than a little confident in how well she was keeping control over this match.

[ADarlingDucky]

If things hadn't been going her way before, they were only getting worse and worse now, as Isabella had trapped Minerva in a tight abdominal stretch, one that she continued to crank ever tighter, stretching out the goth blonde's core each second that passed! Minerva whimpered in pain as the blonde woman cruelly continued to stretch her, ignoring her attempts at escape and only tightening her hold to make it even harder for the trapped woman to get her way out of it! And as she mocked Minerva, the goth's tough exterior would continue to deteriorate as she was forced to bend even further, knowing that she needed something desperate to get herself out of Isabella's clutches!

"Nnnnngh! Aaaahh... enough!" Minerva cried, before balling up a fist and raising her arm into the air, only to bring it down into her opponent's thigh as hard as she was able, to give her a nasty elbow! This was hopefully how she'd free herself from the hold, because if this didn't work, she was beginning to run out of options, and that meant bad things for her!
