Victory via pinfall, submission, KO, count-out, or disqualification
Location: Standard ring on a beach
Outfit: Bikini
Now this sucked.
Sure, on paper this had been a decent idea. It was July. The middle of the summer. The beaches were the hotspots of the season. The LAW arena's air conditioning bills were surely out of the roof. So why not take a ring into the middle of one of Tokyo's most popular beaches for a Bikini wrestling event?
Well, a couple of days ago a typhoon had passed near Osaka, and it brought quite some rains with it. Lots of rains. And even if Tokyo hadn't been on the direct path of the storm, it was still rather windy and raining here. No, the weather wasn't dangerous. It was simply unpleasant. But was that a reason to cancel or postpone the event? Apparently not.
Isa let out a sigh as a member of the crew gave her the signal to enter the ring. No, she wasn't really happy about this. But was that something she should have expressed to the audience? Certainly not! This was just a bullet she had to bite, and put on as good of a show for them as possible. The rain wasn't their fault.
Besides, she was from Iceland. This weather wasn't unheard of. And it wasn't that cold.
Isa's Attire (without the cape)
Appearing from beneath the shelter of the canvas, Isa made her way as gracefully as she could down the rubbered "ramp" towards the ring. And damn, it was even windier and wetter than she had thought. She couldn't even make out any of her music from the loudspeakers - if they were even palying it at all. All the sound was muffled, so it could have been something completely else as well... At first, she hadn't been too bothered about a bikini match - when leaving her cape behind, her wrestling attire surely fulfilled the requirements anyway - but she immediately started questioning her line of thinking when feeling the cold rain on her skin.
Climbing up gracefully inside the ring, Isa proceeded to make her usual entrance procedure, climbing on opposite sides of the ring to sit gracefully on the top rope and wave at the crowds - who werent' really there. Sure, there were some individuals, and a couple of groups who had taken out their rain gear and braved their way into the rain to watch the match live, but Isa was fairly sure that had this event not been recorded and televized, it surely would have gotten cancelled.
Despite the low number of audience, Isa proceeded normally towards her corner. Settling there, it was finally time to shift her thoughts towards who would she be facing today... The Icelandic blonde actually didn't know, and the fact hadn't even appeared that relevant to her so far considering the peculiar setup for today's match. And she was going to find out soon enough anyway...
For a moment, Isa stayed still in her corner... But soon she had to start pacing between her own corner and the one next to her, simply for the sake of trying to stay warm in all the wind and the rain. And it was a good way to notice that the mat was getting soaked and rather slippery as well...
