Love at Apex: Wisteria Khan vs Akari Ito III

[Bare]

Smirking as she stood up after tossing Akari away from the bow and arrow position Sheena would bend her knees a bit in preparation as Sheena went through her game plan. Targeting Akari's abs and back had been the majority of her offense. Specifically because Sheena knew Akari thrived on high energy, continuous offense, so by taking out her ability to breathe and hold air she'd limit how much the woman could do. Likewise a hurt back would make doing most of her usual moves much more difficult. While she still had a ways to go Sheena felt like she was on the road to win this whole thing. First things first though... Sheena felt she needed some payback for the end of their last match. So waiting until Akari got up and turned around Sheena would sprint forward while lowering herself, attempting to fold Akari in half with a spear to the gut!

Akari was reeling from all the damage she had endured. She felt the endless surges of pain coursing through her, constantly reminding her that her body was slowly starting to break down from Sheena's onslaught. She did her best to fight through the pain...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Akari kept that mentality at the forefront of her mind. In this hellish battle, it would come down to who had enough willpower to overcome the odds in front of them. Akari was determined to outlast Sheena and mount a comeback. She had the drive and the passion to succeed...She WANTED to win this more. Her heart burned with energy, even as her body stung all over. All she needed was the opportunity to turn things around. As she stood back up on her wobbly legs, she wiped her chin and smirked, beginning to feel that surge of adrenaline in her soul. Deep beyond the pain and passion, another side of Akari was ecstatic about all the action. Being pushed to her limits by someone like Sheena, fighting through all this pain...in a semi-masochistic way, invigorated her. The young, aspiring joshi-wrestler was keen on fighting to her heart's content. There was nothing like the thrill of performing for an audience this wild, fighting against an opponent as strong as Sheena. The Sea Turtle grits her teeth, facing Sheena head-on and taking the Spear directly. She grunts from the pain, her midsection pierced by the charging lavender-haired woman. However, Akari grabs Sheena's head and neck, catching her lover in her clutches!!! Using the momentum to lean back and spike Sheena's forehead into the canvas with an improvised DDT counter!!!

Lining Akari's body up with herself Sheena would smirk softly to herself as she charged forward, looking to fold Akari in half as a possible beginning of the end for her love to be. Sure enough Sheena would succeed in connecting with Akari's midsection, driving her shoulder deep into the woman's stomach and taking her off her feet in the process.. Only for the woman to do something surprising by grabbing the purple haired woman's head. 'What!?' Sheena thought to herself before she was pulled down and spiked hard into the mat with a ddt! "AGH!" Sheena cried out, her whole body going stock still and remaining almost frozen in the air before tilting and falling as she landed back first head next to Akari and a newly dazed haze in her eyes as Sheena tried to clear her head after getting spiked so heavily there.

It took a lot out of the Sea Turtle to endure the mighty blow to her midsection, but she managed to overcome the pain and turn the tables on her beloved ''wisteria blossom''. With a stern series of coughs, she releases a groan of pain before a satisfied smirk appears on her face. She pushes Sheena off to the side, releasing a huff as she draws air back into her pained body. Her lungs had taken quite a battering, but she was resolved to tough it out. Akari stands back up and grabs hold of Sheena. She sets the woman of her dreams up for one of her finishing moves, aiming to give Sheena her receipts back as she goes for a Straight Jacket Neckbreaker that, if successful, would send Sheena down onto the canvas, landing roughly on the back of her neck. Should the lavender-haired woman be dazed for long enough, Akari would add on the follow-up Straight Jacket Muta Lock, utilizing the same move she used to end their last encounter, her ''Sea Foam Special"!!!

Sheena was left groaning in pain and stunned on the mat, Akari's surprise counter of her spear into a ddt having rocked the purple haired wrestler and leaving her totally vulnerable. A fact that Akari was keen to take advantage of to close the distance that Sheena had put between them. Getting forced up to her feet relatively easily by the sea turtle and turned around with her arms laced around her neck Sheena's eyes widened in realization with how familiar this move was to her. Unfortunately at this point Sheena was unable to do anything about Akari's plan, things going too far too fast before she was brought crashing down to the mat with a hard impact, followed by getting rolled over and then Akari flipping her over, locking Sheena in the Seafoam Special! "Agh! Ackkk!" Sheena gasped out in a mix of pain and breathlessness, being once again choked by her own arms as Akari pulled and tightened her hold as Sheena tried her best to acclimate to the hold, refusing to let herself be beaten by the same move twice!

With Sheena slammed onto the canvas and locked down, Akari had full rein to choke the breath out of the love of her life's body. She held the submission move as tight as she could draw it, trying to keep her legs as steady as possible. However, the real challenge was the bridging maneuver that she forced herself into. To keep the submission at its firmest and tightest squeeze, Akari had to arch her backside and flex her abs to stabilize her midsection as she propped herself up. Her well-trained legs were ready for the task at hand, but after taking so much damage to the body, the Sea Turtle began to waver as she struggled. Her grip hadn't loosened yet, but it would only be a matter of time before Sheena had a little more leverage and after that...the hold would be broken entirely. Akari risked a lot in hopes that Sheena would give up and tap out or fall unconscious. However, just as Akari felt she was on the cusp of drawing the last bit of air out of Sheena's body, her stomach region flared up in pain suddenly, with her spine following along shortly after. Her grip slips, and she loses the structural integrity of her submission finisher, giving Sheena's neck a much-needed break. Now recoiling in pain, Akari could only choose to roll away and recover quickly while Sheena was down.

Sheena was in a extremely bad spot right now. Akari's own skill and fortitude shining through as she managed to withstand the Akan's assault and then dropped her with the same finisher she won with in their last match! Only able to grit her teeth and endure the hold for now Sheena knew Akari wouldn't be able to hold the submission for long with the damage she had sustained thus far. Even then however the choke itself was the most dangerous aspect of this hold, forcing the life from Sheena's lungs as Akari pulled and choke. "Ngh... ugh..." Gasping and choking things were starting to go dim and dark, and for a split second Sheena thought this may be the end, but luckily right at that moment Akari's body gave out and the pressure eased. "Haghhhh." Gasping in relief and taking in some air Sheena's hand would immediately go to her neck, rubbing the sore area as she pushed herself up one arm in a rather weak state not unlike Akari who had rolled away, but Sheena would definitely not be able to capitalize since she'd be too focused recovering herself before even daring to try anything.

After that brutal exchange, the Sea Turtle finally had a moment to turn things around. She had the perfect opportunity to seize to overtake Sheena and claim victory...but her lover's assault before Akari's sudden and explosive comeback left her too battered to finish the job. Sheena knew Akari's style. She knew some of her weaknesses at this point. She was keenly aware of how to limit the Sea Turtle's flow, crippling her with every single move she landed to prevent her from fighting at full gear. Now Akari was stuck pondering over the moment...her failure looming over her. She gripped the ropes, pulling herself to her feet. She shook her head and stomped her foot down loudly, trying to hype herself up as a few audience members clapped along to her beat. This was no time to stew on what did and didn't work...what was important was that she had Sheena on the ropes!!! All she needed was to do all that again...Sheena was weaker now, left on the back foot, tired and gasping after being choked out. Akari could use that...this was Sheena's weakness. If the lavender-haired love of Akari's life chose to play the stamina game, Akari would do the same with her own methods...The Sea Turtle stands tall and walks toward Sheena, attempting to grab her and Irish Whip her into the nearest corner.

Falling down onto the mat after nearly being choke Sheen'a first priority was immediately taking a few stangled gulps of air, trying to restore the oxygen supply in her body while simultaneously cradling her throat and neck. Truthfully the only thing that had saved Sheena there was her forethought and planning with how she had been attack Akari throughout the match, devastating her abdomen and back as much as possible knowing full well that a majority of Akari's more high octane offense relied on it, including the Seafoam Special.

Of course that didn't mean the moves didn't still hurt, as shown by Sheena's current state, but they wouldn't be able to be used for near as long or as effectively. Still Sheena was definitely down, not out just yet, but definitely down. Akari for her part while not at all fresh, wasn't quite done yet either and would approach the down Sheena forcing her up to her feet before turning and throwing the purple haired woman towards the corner! "Ugh!" Sheena groaned out in pain as her back hit the corner, arms instinctively grabbing the top rope as she looked up wearily, far from ok, but with at least enough sense to keep an eye on her foe, knowing she had something planned.

With Sheena partially winded, Akari had the chance to mount her comeback. However, she noticed that Sheena had a bit of stamina and determination in her eyes. If Akari went for the wrong move here, she'd be back at square one...She HAD to maintain the offensive. She focuses herself, steadying her body and legs before blitzing Sheena with another charge. She winds her fist slightly, preparing a devastating strike aimed at the lavender-haired woman's jaw...BUT IT'S A FEINT!!! If Sheena were to dodge at the last second, Akari's plan would come to fruition. Should Sheena move out of harm's way, the Sea Turtle would only pick up the pace, faking a whiffed strike before she would run into the corner, hopping up and planting her foot down on the turnbuckle before twisting around with a sudden flash kick aimed at the temple of Sheena's head, trying to catch her lover off-guard with a Triangle Springboard Enzugiri!!!
