Kaethe Savela vs Blossom Fields - New Bloods

[MatMaestro]

Kaethe's cheeks flushed with a mix of adrenaline and satisfaction as her slap made its mark, sending Blossom spinning with a look of stunned surprise. Amateur, Kaethe thought, smirking at the sheer perfection of her execution. She could hardly believe Blossom had practically announced her move before making it.

But Blossom's dazed expression lasted only momentarily before her resolve hardened. The cheerfulness seemed to fade from her face, replaced by a steely determination. Kaethe watched uninterested as Blossom composed herself, a hint of anticipation flickering in her eyes.

Then, in a flash, Blossom lunged. Kaethe barely had time to brace herself as Blossom's arm sliced through the air with a knife-edge chop aimed squarely at her chest. The impact forced the air from her lungs, and Kaethe staggered back, her boots scrambling for purchase on the mat.

Kaethe's grimace slowly morphed into an expression of mock awe. She turned to the crowd, gesturing towards Blossom as if to say “Can you believe this?” Recovering her stance, she called out to Blossom, her tone dripping with condescension. "Oh, sweetie, are you sure you want to play that game?" Kaethe would barely give Blossom a chance to respond before her arm sliced through the air, delivering a sharp, echoing chop of her own against Blossom’s chest. Not stopping at one, she unleashed a rapid succession of chops, aiming to land each one landing with increasing ferocity and push her opponent back a little further.

Hm. That was a lot more satisfying than Blossom had anticipated. She was way more of a suplex and slam sort of girl, and while she had trained to use strikes and chops, she didn’t like to fall back on them too much, what with being shorter than most of her opponents and all. But she had to say, there was something about cracking her forearm across Kaethe’s chest that really sung to her soul, especially as retaliation for that slap. Blossom liked to play nice, but that didn’t mean she was going to let herself get pushed around - no, she’d stopped being that kind of person a long, long time ago.

It seemed to have a real impact, too, driving her opponent back a few steps, really hurting her. She knew it wouldn’t go without a response, though, and she braced herself for the return. ”You bet I-”

Blossom was just moving in for another chop when Kaethe cut her off at the pass, using her superior speed and reach to land a chop before she even got into position. Another one landed, and another and another, each of them having a resounding impact on her flat chest, driving her back to the corner. She wound up staying there, too, withering against the pads while the onslaught continued and the referee came over to sound a warning.

Kaethe reveled in the impact of her flurry of chest chops, each one driving Blossom back with greater force. Her arms moved like a rabid machine, each strike delivered with precision and ferocity. Blossom retreated further and further, ultimately finding herself against the corner pads.

The goth girl was so engrossed in her offensive onslaught that she barely noticed the meddling referee lingering over her shoulder. She shot the official a nasty glare, refusing to relent on her merciless series of meaty chops before the referee finally intervened to separate them.

"Pfft, calm down stripes! Just giving the people what they paid for." Kaethe scoffed as she pivoted on her heels, making a show of wiping her hands on her wrestling gear and feigning casual indifference as she backed away toward the center of the ring.

But as soon as the referee allowed the match to continue, Kaethe shifted her focus back to Blossom with a malicious grin. She mockingly pointed a finger gun at the girl, still reeling in the corner, before darting forward with her signature burst of speed. Having already left her chest stinging, Kaethe now set her sights on Blossom’s midsection, aiming to devastate her with a powerful running knee strike to the abdomen!

[BlackAkuma]

”Ow, ow, hey, crap, stop, ow-”

Blossom yelped with every strike, as Kaethe lay into her, battering her blow after blow. She’d pegged the gothic terror as the faster one between them; that wasn’t a surprise, but she was getting a firsthand taste of it now, and she found it far less than pleasant. The woman was relentless, lashing into her body with hellacious strikes, each one stinging more than the last. By the time she was done, Blossom was left to wither in the corner, while Kaethe paraded about and soaked in the moment.

But Blossom wasn’t done. Not just yet.

Hurting as she was, Blossom was still very much aware of her surroundings, enough to see Kaethe setting up for something big. She gritted her teeth and shook her head, knowing she’d have one shot at this. Just had to wait for the right moment…

That moment came when Kaethe came rushing forward, closing the distance with hurried steps and leaping in and shooting a knee into her stomach. The hit its target and made Blossom gasp, the air knocked clean out of her, but she years of crunches had prepared her for this sort of thing better than most, giving her a rock solid core. Instead of just sagging back and taking the blow, she wrapped her arm around Kaethe’s leg and kept her from bringing it back down, keeping her close as she stepped out of the corner and lifting her clean off the mat with ease.

Blossom draped her other arm over Kaethe’s shoulder, pulled her in tight, then jerked up and sent her flying towards the corner she’d just stepped out, looking to nail her with an…

”Exploder Suplex!”
