Beauty and the Beast

[Teenwrestler]

It was not too long ago that Ryu Hiroshi had decided to mentor a young wrestler who wanted to make a name for herself in LAW. That meant that she would have to do her initiation as a young lioness before even coming towards the main roster. She showed some good potential and the Dragon was more than happy to pass on his knowledge and experience to those who sought it. She showed good progress and while she was still quite green, Ryu thought she had good potential. That is until one day, her confidence was left shattered when she met Reika Ichigaya in the gym who interrupted her training. The young girl tried to stand up to the might of the former Wrestle Angel but it was a true mismatch in size, skill and experience. In the end, the conversation ended quickly when Ichigaya dominated her in a short spar.

When Ryu got to know of this, he of course, wanted to confront the former Wrestle Angel star about her actions against a young rookie wrestler. He wanted to help this young wrestler but now her confidence was left shattered and he was going to be the one who would stand up to a fellow veteran wrestler. If she was not going to help someone, than the least she could have done was to stand out of the way of those veteran wrestlers who did wanted to give back to the business what it gave to them.

Having just heard about this incident while training, the Dragon would leave his training session midway- still sweaty and a bit tired. He heard that Ichigaya was around, doing some fancy photoshoot but he was not going to wait until she was done. The Dragon would make his way towards the photoshoot area, looking around for the sight of the blonde until he found her. "HEY! Ichigaya-san....we need to have a word. You think you can just bully other wrestlers without any consequence? Well, why don't you pick on or step up to someone your own size and experience" he roared, crashing her shoot.

Despite living a very very privileged lifestyle, even Reika Ichigaya was bound by responsibility and duties to the Ichigaya conglomerate. Reika had always been a public personality, be it for better or worse. This made things insanely easy as she was the target of many promotional campaigns. Despite so many fans disliking Reika Ichigaya, their words rarely matched up with their actions. Seeing how Ichigaya merchandise always was one of the higher selling ones. Still there had been some other detractors that wanted to take a more “personal” approach with Ichigaya. Just now doing a photo shoot for a new line of swimwear, Ichigaya is reminded of some young rookie wrestler who seemed misunderstand who she really was. Honestly Ichigaya remembers very little of the wrestler, as the matter was solved so swiftly.

Miss Ichigaya it is time for the next set of photos One of the cameramen said to get Ichiagaya’s attention. Ah yes, my apologies I seemed to have lost myself in thought. Ichigaya said as she prepped herself for the photo shoot. The set was supposed to mimic a beach, but using state of the art camerawork and cgi, they were able to replicate something similar. Not that it mattered as Ichigaya would be the focus of the photo shoot. Yes, just like that, now move your hand to the side. Perfect. Now maybe a different pose. Stunning, truly stunning the lead cameraman instructed as he mixed in his praise. Unbeknownst to them though, Ichigaya had made a new enemy today.

Spoiler

It was hard to not find Ichigaya as she was surrounded by thousands dollars of equipment. It was this giant Japanese man fuming in anger, and apparently Ichigaya was the cause of this. Ichigaya’s expression would sour as the photo shoot would be interrupted. Even before she could get a word in the Japanese man was quick to vent his frustrations.

SIGH Ichigaya would let out as she stood up, sizing up to the giant man. I’m sorry, I am told I have a short patience and my memory can be somewhat scattered. Who are you? And what is this about bullying other wrestlers?

[Teenwrestler]

He wasn't aware that Ichigaya was in a middle of a photoshoot and quite frankly, at this point, he did not care. She had tried to intimidate and bully one of the wrestler's he was trying to train and now that wrestler's confidence was shattered all because of this so-called veteran of the ring who instead of leading by example would be a gatekeeper of the business, not allowing younger talent to shine. Wrestle Angel or not, Ryu was not going to allow Ichigaya's ego and fame in the wrestling business to shadow those who wished to reach to the top.

He barged over towards the set, for a second he hesitated because there was quite a few people around there, and the fact that she was clad in a stunning bikini. No doubt she had earned the name "Beauty" in Ichigaya and the woman was beautiful, imposing and extremely fit. Still, Ryu's resolve would not falter and he would approach the stand to make quite a fuss. The blonde would approach the male, sizing up to him. She would play dumb, as expected, asking who he was and what was the reason for all the commotion.

"My name is Ryu Hiroshi and there is no need to act like you're not aware of what you did, Ichigaya-san" he would say. "You crushed a young wrestler's hopes in the gym when they were simply training under my tutorage and you decided to humiliate and embarrass them in a quick spar when you know they were simply a rookie" he would say, gritting his teeth in anger.

"Why don't you pick on someone your own size if you want to wrestle. You and Me......" he proposed.

[Tiamat]

Very few would dare interrupt the great Beauty Ichigaya whilst she was in the middle of something. Those who dared must have been lacking critical thinking skills. That or they cared very little for their health. Ichigaya was in the middle of figuring out which camp this ruffian was a part of. Ichigaya’s ego was one that is hard to match, but those who did not know her. Oh she will make it a mission that they never will know her, along with that, never forget her. This man seemed to be harping over some rookie Ichigaya faced in some spar. Which in all honesty Ichigaya had no memory of. Despite what this man describing is something she absolutely would do.

Ah well you seem to be educated to know of my name. Despite that being a low bar Ichigaya said disappointedly sighing as this was another man looking for some sort of revenge. If its any consolation, I hardly remember the young wrestler you are speaking of. They can’t be worth all of this commotion if I Ichigaya can’t remember them. The Ojou said as a very bad attempt to diffuse the situation. She was hardly in any attire to be fighting, even with the way Ryu was moments away from clocking her in the face.

Wrestle you? Wait but that would mean you think that we are equal? Oh you do…how quaint Once again showing her disappointment. Not caring about the man’s very apparent anger. Why don’t you console this rookie as opposed to picking fights. What sort of sensei are you Ichiagaya said on the verge of nearly walking away.

[Teenwrestler]

He did not care that Ichigaya was in the midst of an important photoshoot. He would barge right in, getting to her face and demanding her to apologize to the poor soul that she tormented- someone who he decided to mentor. He was not going to stand by while this huge mega star would bully an up and coming rookie. She did not seem to remember anything about that interaction, that or she was so high and mighty that she did was pretending that she had no idea what he was talking about to dismiss him. Ryu was all up in her face, she was not impressed. The blonde would dismiss his challenge, she did not seemed interested in wrestling a veteran like him and even insulted him.

"You have no honor. What would you do if someone would have done that to you in your early career." he would say. He would raise an eyebrow when she would move away from him, it was clear that she was ducking his challenge. However, he did not appreciate that she was trying to walk away by saying that Ryu was not worth her time.

"I am the sort of sensei that defends his mentee. Unlike you, who ducks fight....just like the one you are ducking out of now. Keep walking and remember, never to get in my business again" he would say, watching on to see what her response would be.

[Tiamat]

This was nothing more than a small break from what was an important photo shoot. It wasn’t something that Ichigaya would even dare break a sweat over. Doing so would only mean that Ryu and this mentee of his were occupying more space in her mind than needed. Bully to start with was too harsh of a word to use. Ichigaya was a realist if anything. Most people didn’t deserve to be in the same ring as her. It’s not her fault that was the case. Everyone else just wasn’t good enough.

Ryu was beyond pissed, that was clear the see. What was also clear was that Ichigaya had been removing herself from this challenge. Quite literally Ichigaya didn’t have the time to entertain Ryu and give him a beating. Walking away she could hear the man still go on about honor and other meaningless hypotheticals. (Ah, I had wondered how long it would take before honor was brought up…As if anyone could’ve done that to me of all people. My rise to fame and skill was destiny really) Ichigaya thought as she walked away. Caring very little about Ryu and whatever vendetta he had going on here.

That was until he responded to Ichigaya on was sort of Sensei he was. Claiming that Ichigaya had been ducking not only this fight but several others. Even worse though, Ryu had managed to make himself to bigger person. Demanding Ichigaya walk away from him and never get in his business. Stopping dead in her tracks. Ichigaya didn’t say a word, but there was a particular change in the air around her. Come again? I’m sorry I am not sure I heard you correctly. Ichigaya said visibly angry as she stomped her way back to Ryu. Once again face to face with the man that started this all. Something else I had noticed talking to you. Yes it is your arrogance. How dare you look at me eye to eye like we are equals! Ichigaya said as without warning she would kick Ryu right in his stomach very hard. Hopefully doubling the man over, now physically showing her anger. Ichigaya would quickly latch onto Ryu and try to slam him face first onto the ground with a pedigree!

[Teenwrestler]

When it felt as if she was not interesting in his challenge, he would at least make sure that he would give Ichigaya a stern warning and make it so that she would be the one who shied away from his challenge. She had turned her back to him and was looking to exit the scene, he made sure to ruffle her feathers one last time. It seemed that he did struck a nerve in the end, the blonde would stop dead in her tracks and then move back towards the Dragon. Storming over towards his direction, he would remain steadfast and stand his ground when for a second she thought she heard him wrong.

"You heard me. You run away from a challenge when you know you can't overcome it" he would say. She would cut him off, reminding him on what he had said to her earlier about being equals. It seemed she had taken an offense to that and would suddenly raise her foot up into his belly. "GUUGHHH" he cried out, bending over in front of her. She would grab his head, looking to place it between her thighs but the Dragon would stop her, grabbing her thighs and pushing her back while freeing himself.

He gritted his teeth, she decided to pick this fight and now he was going to end it. He would look to charge her, trying to lunge and spear her to the ground.

When it came to all of the things that Ichigaya should be praised for, her patience was something of note. Ichigaya believed that she had the patience of a monk. Any other ruffian would have struck Ryu instantly. Ichigaya showed restraint for as long as she could, but even the strictest of monks would be tested by Ryu’s insolence. Not true at all To Ichigaya it seemed that the man would only respond to one thing and one thing only. After all who was Ichigaya to deny someone a trouncing by her hand.

Cutting the man off, Ichigaya was going to show Ryu where his place was exactly. On the floor beneath her, it just so happened Ichigaya was going to do so very violently. Yet it seemed that Ryu’s figure was not for show after all. The kick to the stomach was not enough for Ichigaya to acquaint Ryu to the concrete. Initially shoving Ichigaya off of her him. Nearly falling over from the shove off her legs, Ichigaya was off balance. All helping Ryu as he came and tackled the Beauty Ichigaya to the ground! GAH! The woman let out as she was completely taken off her feet and tackled towards the ground. Leaving Ryu on top of her and with the advantage!

[Teenwrestler]

The verbal altercation soon turned physical. Ryu came to Ichi to challenge her to a match but instead of a wrestling match, a brawl ensued and the two veteran wrestlers ended up in a fight by Ichi's photoshoot. She kicked him in the gut, trying to set him up for a pedigree but the Dragon was ready and he was not going to allow the blonde to simply face plant him on the floor. He would break away from the grip, shoving her away from him before lunging at her like a mad man and slamming her shoulderblade against her abdomen to tackle her to the ground!

Ryu's body lay across Ichigaya's who laid there under him, sprawled out with the wind knocked out of her. The Dragon would roll off her, grabbing her hair as he tried to push her up to a seated position before trying to wrap his arm around her neck and legs around her waist for a body scissor and sleeperhold submission. "If you do not tap, I will knock you out" he whispered into her ear.

[Tiamat]

This all should have been a simple matter to solve and fix. Ryu comes in here demanding something of Ichigaya, and Ichigaya shuts him up by slamming him face first into concrete. So why is it that Ryu is fighting back?!? How dare he! Does he not realize who’s presence he is in? Suddenly this fight became something more serious for Ichigaya. It was her right to put Ryu in his place, right where he belongs. Beneath her, though first Ichigaya would have to get herself up. Taking into account her current position, Ryu was not going to make it easier.

With both of them on the ground now, Ichigaya had taken the brunt of the tackle as they crashed onto the floor. Instead of opting for something more what Ichigaya expected out of him. Ryu instead grabbed onto Ichigaya’s perfect hair and lift her into a seated position. Loocking the woman in a body scissor and sleeperhold combo! Ichigaya’s eyes suddenly shot open as the hold was locked in tight. Matters were worse as she was seated. Ryu would once again stroke Ichigaya’s anger as he gave her a ultimatum. Being knocked out or taping out and admitting defeat. Both meaning basically meaning death to Ichigaya. So she silently growled as she grabbed onto Ryu. Forcing herself and the man up slowly, it’d be faster if Ryu wasn’t so damn heavy! Once Ichigaya found herself standing, Ryu would be able to feel her tense each and every muscle. With each second utilizing her precious oxygen. So limping a few steps forward towards a technology table. Ichigaya with Ryu on her, would shift to the side and slam Ryu first onto the table. Shattering it and every valuable piece of equipment on it as well!
