Cecilia Lombard vs. Great Luvia

[CaptainL]

When it looked like Luvia was about to take back control, the arena had erupted into cheers. She'd brought Cecilia down with a magnificently performed suplex, leaving the dark-haired girl splayed out and vulnerable. Now it seemed like justice would be served - that all the pain and suffering Luvia had to endure to get to this point would all be worth something! But before the referee could even make a single count, Luvia's back failed her. And as she went toppling aside, all those cheers gave way to boos and groans of frustration. It was like the air had been let out of the band - right when Luvia needed her strength most of all, it failed her.

To Cecilia, though? This was music to her ears. Luvia had tried standing up to her, and it had come around to bite her. The poetic irony of that moment was almost enough to make the aches and bruises that came with taking the suplex a minute ago feel well worth it. When she looked up at Luvia, her grin would only grow wider. "Must be disappointing, isn't it? To have the whole crowd behind you...and then, they realize all this time, you've just been full of hot air?"

Cecilia just wanted to add insult to injury. She'd known Luvia long enough to figure out that her pride was just as vulnerable as her body, and she wanted to target that! Luvia grabbed onto her, and as she pushed herself up to her knees, Cecilia rose to meet her. But Cecilia was ready. Luvia's arm might've shot out to strike her in the face - but Cecilia would hold up her hands, moving to catch it! "I don't think so!"

If that worked, she would quickly grab for Luvia's wrist, cranking back at it to hyper-extend the joint, in a move calculated to cause the maximum amount of pain with the least amount of effort! Hopefully, that would prove enough to slow down Luvia's offense - because Cecilia's next move would be to hurl her arm straight down into her knee with an armbreaker!

[Devastated]

Luviagelita was frustrated...beyond what could be comprehended by most people. She was practically seething, she wanted nothing but to have kept that bridge going. She was certain that if she had done that then she would have been able to get a three count. She clicked her tongue, grumbling under her breath as she tried to pull Cecilia up to her knees! It seemed as if the raven haired woman had no desire to fight back in the way that Luvia had expected.

She allowed herself to get pulled up to her knees, but Luviagelita wouldn't find an easy target to bash with her forearm. Instead her arms met both arms of Cecilia's, as she managed to guard. Her words caused even more strife to the blonde after this, then her arm was gripped by Cecilia and she was yanked down, her arm pulled down along with her weight right into those knees of Cecilia!

"Gaaah!" Luviagelita gasped out in pain, as her arm was smashed hard across that knee! She hissed out in pain, and tried to pull away and hug that arm close to her body, kicking her feet down against the mat as she looked to roll over onto her back.

[CaptainL]

Cecilia saw Luvia lunge toward her, her arms cutting through the air to ready a blow - but then, she was ready for that. She managed to swing her own arms up just in time to parry the strike - and with that, the blonde was left open, ripe for Cecilia to take advantage of the opportunity! As soon as she had her arm left open, vulnerable, and unguarded, Cecilia was ready to move in for the kill, grabbing it and swinging it down into the path of an armbreaker!

Sure enough, Luvia went reeling off the impact, rolling to her side and nursing the wound. Cecilia huffed at the sight of that - it was a little disappointing to see that she didn't have ready access to her opponent's arm. But if that was the case, so be it - she'd still managed to bring Luvia low, and that left her open and vulnerable, ripe for her to take advantage! If Luvia wouldn't let her keep a hold of that arm, Cecilia would just take matters into her own hands!

"Give me that..." she growled under her breath, reaching for Luvia's wrist. If she could, she would grab onto the joint and pull it back, stretching out her arm - then, she would rise to her feet, still keeping Luvia's wrist in her grasp. If that succeeded, she would lift her foot and bring it down with a series of stomps, two on Luvia's elbow and two on her shoulder - just to torment her all the more, while at the same time twisting at her wrist!

[Devastated]

Luvia was trying to cover her arm, doing her best to protect it from further abuse after that armbreaker. She was doing her best to nurse her arm from the pain that was echoing through it. Only for Cecilia to reach for her arm and pull at it, yanking it free from her hold and taking command as she stretched the arm out straight against the canvas. The blonde hissed out in pain, kicking her feet down against the mat as Cecilia rose to her feet.

Suddenly she felt that boot stomp down on her elbow join, following by another and then a pair of stomps right onto her shoulder. Luviagelita Edelfelt was forced to gasp out in pain, grunting with each painful stomp that came down upon her hurting arm.

[CaptainL]

Cecilia knew she had done some damage to Luvia's arm already - now, she was continuing to target that same limb. She knew that every strike she landed against it would just hurt Luvia more and more, and cripple her chances of fighting back with it. She'd fight as hard as she needed to to deprive her opponent of the chance to take back control - and the sight of Luvia wincing and groaning as she hammered away at her aching joints was all Cecilia needed to see to tell her her hard work was paying off!

At last, Cecilia let go of her opponent's arm, letting the girl flop onto her face. She stood over her with her hands on her hips, surveying her handiwork - and a smirk came to her face at the sight of it. Now, she could be sure that Luvia would be in no position to fight back if she'd taken her arm out of the picture. Which meant the coast was clear to do whatever else she pleased!

This time, Cecilia reached for Luvia's legs. Pulling back on them hard, she would turn to roll the blonde over onto her stomach - and there, she would drop her weight down onto her back, pulling her legs along with her to fold them over her own back in a Boston Crab and put down the pressure on her spine!

[Devastated]

The blonde's arm was aching something fierce, she wasn't sure how to deal with it, whenever she moved her arm just a little there was a sharp stinging pain that erupted through her whole limb and it was intense enough that it forced Luvia to stiffen up. She winced and complained in pain as she was released by Cecilia's clutches and let go, on her side with her arm hugged close to her frame she laid....

That was only until Cecilia decided to torture Luviagelita even further. Luvia felt how her legs were grabbed by Cecilia and she was forced to roll over onto her stomach! Luvia hissed out in protest but she couldn't do anything to stop Cecilia from locking in that painful Boston Crab hold! She felt the pressure build up in her hips, the pain echoing out through her back and her spine, which was still hurting from all the abuse it had taken throughout the match!

Luvia gasped and shook her head, she tried to use her unhurt arm to try and pull and drag them towards the ropes. It seemed like a fruitless effort though, it was slow...and heavy, worse draining. Her mind was filled with the pain she was in and she didn't know what to do anymore. Things were looking rather dire for the Great Luvia....

[CaptainL]

The whole while, Cecilia looked back over her shoulder, observing every moment of Luvia's agony as she struggled desperately to claw her way to safety - but, of course, to no avail. Under the brunette's assault, she simply didn't have the strength left in her to sustain herself, let alone fight back. The damage Cecilia had done to her arm was already debilitating, and even that wouldn't be enough for Cecilia's standards - no, she had to go even further! Cecilia knew that Luvia's pride was one of her greatest strengths. It was for that very reason that she had set out to break it...and from the way things were going thus far, she felt she was doing a pretty good job of that.

A smirk came to Cecilia's face as she sat satisfied with her efforts. Compared to how bold and outspoken Luvia had been at the start of this match, she was practically unrecognizable now that she was struggling meekly beneath Cecilia's weight, barely able to drag herself to the ropes. But she still wasn't giving in. Cecilia raised her eyebrow curiously to that fact - if nothing else, Luvia was certainly stubborn. But...she had her ways of dealing with that, too.

"Hmmph..." Abruptly, Cecilia got up from Luvia. "Do I still have more work to do? That's fine...I can manage." She didn't let go of her legs - and that was for good reason. Giving a sharp tug to the side, Cecilia would attempt to roll Luvia onto her back. Then, she'd grab her arm and pull it in between her legs, locking her legs into place around them. She'd finish that off by rolling Luvia onto her stomach for a Paradise Lock, her limbs tangled up in a knot - which she'd punctuate by giving a sharp stomp to her back!

[Devastated]

Luviagelita was getting desperate, through her struggles as she tried to pull herself towards the ropes. Her efforts were not going well, but she was struggling all the same. Her struggles though were thwarted as Cecilia rose off her back and then rolled her over onto her back, grunting out as she found herself staring up at the arena lights, the blonde tried to shift her gaze to Cecilia. Now she could see and feel how the brunette took a hold of her legs and folded them up as well as tying up one of her between her legs!

Tangled up like a pretzel, Luvia could do nothing as she was rolled back over onto her front, and then a hard stomp shot down on her now quite hurting back."Gaaah!" the Finnish Ojou cried out as she would shake her head, hissing out loudly in pain!

[CaptainL]

Luvia had made herself a thorn in Cecilia's side for too long. It was about time she put a stop to her, once and for all. Cecilia was out to send a message to the world - that she wouldn't be allow herself to be pushed around any more. She was someone who commanded respect and deserved to be taken seriously. And if Luvia still thought she was hot shit...she would show her where her true place was!

But, much as she had done all too many times before, Luvia was proving herself to be frustratingly determined. She wasn't going to bow her head to Cecilia's demands so easily - not even if she was tied up in her own limbs. And that was exactly what made Cecilia hate her as much as she did. She needed to break Luvia's pride and force her to admit who had beaten her. And if she wasn't doing it...she'd just have to try harder!

"I'll do it again if I have to!" Cecilia hissed through her teeth, planting her hands on her hips. She brought up her foot again, about to deliver another stomp onto Luvia's already sore back; if that worked, she would rub her heel from side to side to grind it against her spine. "You're not getting out of the Paradise Lock any time soon. So just say it! Who's won this match!?"

[Devastated]

Luviagelita's pride was what made her continue this struggle, to endure the pain and now the humiliation as best as she could...but even the overwhelmingly prideful heir to the Edelfelt family had her limits. Her back was burning with pain, her body was utterly spent, covered in sweat as she was locked up with her own limbs in this Paradise Lock!

When Cecilia's raised her boot again and stomped it down onto the base of her spine, and grind that heel in...the pain surged through her whole back! She hissed and whined from the pain. She struggled to try to free herself but there was simply no way to escape. Finally her hand would begin to tap against her own thigh!

"I-...I Give..." She swallowed her pride and admitted defeat.
