Thea Asters vs Renee Winters

[Misfit_Alien]

As Renee groaned and whined, the woman remained resolved to find a way out of this situation. Despite her whimpers and cries of pain and agony, the idol was undeterred by Thea's words and actions. She was about to break free from the Leg Stretch, but Thea quickly changed her game plan into a tight Single-Legged Boston Crab position, causing the idol further pain and stress as she screamed. The Frenchwoman grits her teeth, pounding the canvas furiously but not uttering a single word in response to Thea, nor giving up from the pain either. That fire in her eyes continued to burn as she steadied her breathing. Flailing around and crying wasn't the way to break free. She needed to remain calm and focused. Her exclamations of pain soon softened as a wave of serenity washed over her. She was flexible...she was cool...calm...collected...Renee attempts to use her free leg to kick Thea in the gut before the woman grabs her and locks her in another configuration of the move, hoping to break free or at least loosen the blonde's control over her.

Thea was a technical master, able to lock in holds at any moment and transition them easily, applying and multiplying pain in spades with brutal precision. A fact that was reflected in her thus far, 100 percent submission win rate. Knowledge that Thea was determined to ingrain into Renee's psyche, leaving her to wake up in a cold sweat for years remembering this night. Unfortunately though even the greatest of plans ran into their hiccups. In this case primarily in the form of Renee managing to use that free leg of hers to start battering into the blonde's stomach! "Ngh! Ugh!" Thea groaned out as the kicks connected, pushing some of the air out of her body as her knees buckled, eventually forcing her to release Renee's leg and stumble backwards while clutching her stomach with a wince of pain on her face and a glare directed towards her opponent. "Oh... you're gonna regret that." She promised darkly, pushing up and starting to circle Renee like a predator stalking its prey, waiting for the right opportunity to strike.

"The only regret I'll have tonight...is ever being considerate to someone as ill-mannered as you." Renee said with a huff, getting back up on her feet in direct defiance of Thea and her domineering attitude. The Winter Fantasy would NOT allow the woman to walk over her. She can talk all she wants and spit in the face of Renee's kind, sportsmanlike gestures...but she will NEVER break the young idol's passionate spirit. With this crowd to serve as the Winter Fantasy's witnesses, they would be the first to see the cold, bone-chilling grasp of Winter freeze, decay, and shatter the wicked machinations of Thea Asters' malevolence. "I've come too far just to be ridiculed and rejected by the likes of you...Every fighter here has tested my patience and mettle, taking advantage of my personality and positive outlook. You can try like all the rest...but you will NEVER rid this ring or these people of their winter wonder!!!" She said, rushing Thea with a flurry of kicks, flowing between each one with the grace of a ballerina as she maintained her speed and poise throughout each strike, keeping Thea on her toes!!!

Thea was not happy after Renee's little escape attempt, thwarting the fun she was having and make her promise some pain for the woman as she began to circle her once more, waiting for an opportunity. However unfortunately the element of surprise was gone, Renee was aware of her now and was on her toes. "So annoying." Thea hissed under her breath, especially once the girl began to go into another heroic speech like before. This time though before she had a chance to bite back at her Renee would come flying in before she was able to, throwing her legs up in the process, throwing a rapid fire series of kicks at her!

"Ngh! Ugh! Shit!" Thea grunted and cursed in between blocking and redirecting as many of the strikes she could, but a few connected flush and they hurt like hell. "Dammit UGH!" Thea cursed taking a kick full force to the ribs... But only so that she could try and grab onto the limb.. If successful in doing so she would glare Renee before pulling her in by the leg and throwing her knee up, intending on driving it into Renee's ribs with a knee strike to the gut!

Renee was on the assault!!! Her rapid-fire kicks demolished Thea's body and expectations as the young woman pressed her advantage with a flurry of fast-paced strikes. The Frenchwoman utilized her long, well-trained legs to attack her opponent from a distance, and it appeared to be working stupendously. However, the moment Renee gained any momentum, her opponent was there to tear her back down. Thea, now infuriated that the Frenchwoman had dealt even a modicum of damage to her, was ready to pummel the bright-eyed idol back into the canvas where she belonged. As her leg made contact with Thea's ribs, the blonde woman grabbed hold of the Winter Fantasy's limb before she could pull it back. Renee was left to balance on one leg, hopping helplessly as she was caught by surprise. The dark-skinned idol attempted to go for a sudden Jumping Enzugiri...but before she could move, Thea acted first, drawing her in close and delivering a PAINFUL knee to the idol's gut which forced her to expel some of the air in her lungs, making her stagger as she wheezed, gasping as the one leg she was standing on buckles.

Renee's barrage of kicks coming in at Thea was definitely a problem and even with her managing to block a good few of them her arms were definitely feeling the force of the blows with how sore they were. But as the saying went where there was a will there was a way and Thea had managed to find a way by grabbing onto Renee's leg, albeit from taking a full frontal kick, but now Thea had Renee all vulnerable, especially after delivering a knee to her gut. Smirking lightly as she did this Thea would suddenly tug on Renee's leg, pulling her forward while releasing the limb, looking to take advantage of that buckling leg to force the wintery idol into full split!

Not done yet though Thea would raise her leg... before placing her foot on Renee's shoulder before pushing down, looking to force Renee face and chest first into the mat while in the split, held down by Thea's boot! "Hah! Bow before the queen fool!" Thea snapped out mockingly as she dug her heel into Renee's back, looking to deal some more humiliation rather than pain to Renee despite having the opportunity for the former, and while this was satisfying for the blonde... it was hard to say if it was the correct decision.

Renee coughed and gagged as every sliver of progress she made was immediately cut back down by her malicious, arrogant foe. Thea Asters' cruel and methodical ways of destroying Renee both physically and mentally were starting to form cracks and chinks within the wintery idol's armor. It was a style befitting of someone who desired to be called the 'Queen of the Ring'...It wasn't enough to just beat your opponents. You had to CRUSH them. That's likely what Thea believed. The ends justify the means. As long as she wins, what does it matter? Whatever it takes to accomplish her goal...but to Renee, she could see through it. It was nothing more than malice and malcontent. It was FAR from what a queen should be. Not a force wielding malice, torture, or humiliation as her tools but a symbol of dedication, talent, and radiance.

Renee would prove Thea and her ideals wrong. She would NOT break...Not for her, and not before all of her fans who still cheered her on!!! Even as Thea forced her to the canvas, prostrated before Thea in a humiliating split with her face meeting the canvas, Renee refused to budge as she grits her teeth, planted her hands to the mat, and defiantly bucked against Thea's firm boot, shoving free from the sole of the blonde, tyrannical woman. If Thea was distracted or shaken up for even a moment, the Winter Fantasy would use this opportunity to her advantage. No matter how small the window, the dark-skinned Frenchwoman would take this chance to FIGHT. Renee rises to a single knee, wasting no time trying to tackle Thea to the ground, wanting to pin the blonde to the mat so she could work her over with some technical wrestling.

This was how things should be for Thea, at least in her mind. Standing tall and proud, grinding her heel into the back of a would be obstacle to her ascension to prominence. All was right for the world in Thea's view and she would do everything in her power to insure it remained that way, starting with continuing to further her opponent's defeat. Unfortunately, and while she wouldn't admit it herself, Renee was going to be far more difficult to put down than she would have liked and Thea's own intent to embarrass her was starting to bite her in the ass in turn as Renee suddenly bucked the blonde up and off her forcing her to stumble back a bit! "Ngh! Bi-Agh!" Thea cried out at first in surprise, then anger and finally shock as well as pain as she was then tackled off of her feet and down to the mat with Renee on top, the breath knocked from her lungs by the tackle, leaving her temporarily unable to react!

[Misfit_Alien]

Renee rushed forward with the fury of a thousand bone-chilling winters!!! The frosty idol was determined to make the woman pay for her cruel injustice. If Thea wanted to break Renee's spirit, she'd need to be far more brutal to do so. The dark-skinned Frenchwoman had fought through a painful hell just to QUALIFY for this tournament. She had been put through the wringer making her way to the finals, and she had shed blood, sweat, and tears over this event. She was NOT going to disappoint her fans. She was NOT going to fail. She would NOT be defeated. Certainly not by the likes of someone such as Thea, who was recoiling fiercely from the tackle as she gasped desperately for air that would enter her lungs. Seeing her foe dismantled and off-guard, Renee quickly transitioned, using her technical prowess as intended as she went for a Bridging Hammerlock to wear Thea down some more!!!

Despite holding control for much of the match that control was beginning to slip away and it was certainly not the way the blonde wanted this match to go. But there was nothing she could do! That tackle from Renee had driven the air out of her, leaving her stunned and unable to do anything as Renee rolled her over onto her stomach and her arm was grabbed before it was pulled back with Renee swinging over her, bridging and securing a agonizing hammerlock submission hold putting immense pressure on the limb in the process! "Aghhhh!" Thea screamed out in pain from the hold, kicking her legs against the mat wildly, seemingly hurting for the first time in the match and signalling a chance in the tides all at once!
