Giovanni Zeppeli vs Kasumi Kaneko - Foxes and Horses

[Deus001]

It almost hurt Gyro there just as much as it hurt Kasumi there, to damage a sweet little thing like that who Gyro would probably be drinking with were they not in the ring. But the Italian Stallion wasn't a stranger to getting flirty eyes from the fillys back home and knew he was still fighting to win here and the cowboy didn't have no place in his heart for some floozy that tried to mooch off natural looks.

"Sorry there tesoro, might make it up to you later~" Gyro said with his Italian accent on clear display.

Still in close proximity with the foxy lady Gyro would then try to rebound her to the ropes, whereupon Gyro would to catch her on the rebound with his arms and attempt an over the shoulder arm drag to attempt to send her to the mat. Still it required letting his foxy adversary go and who knows what she might attempt when let off the leash~

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi still felt the blow dealt to her by Gyro's knee in her gut. Of course, this left her stunned for just enough for Gyro to grab her and cause her to rebound off the ropes. Then, Kasumi felt him grab her for a shoulder arm drag that would send her crashing down onto the mat. Now, she still felt quite a bit of pain from the knee strike, but she was able to react in time when Gyro attempted to slam her on the mat.

As Gyro managed to grab Kasumi and throw her over the shoulder arm drag, Kasumi used the momentum to immediately perform a cartwheel. This was a set-up for one of her other moves, called the "Ninetail Roll". It was a good move to get out of a throw or slam, as it used the momentum the opponent used on Kasumi to allow her that cartwheel motion.

As Kasumi rolled for the cartwheel, the kitsune would retaliate with a dropkick aimed for the collarbone area of Gyro's chest; intending to knock him over or at least knock him back.

"Alright, but you better know where a place that has the best whisky." Kasumi said cheekily to Gyro, after pulling off the "Ninetail Roll".

[Deus001]

Gyro was going to admit that Ksaumi was a wily and rather foxy lady but he reckoned that in this stage of the bout he was taming her quite nicely, maybe once he wrangled the fox he could then make it up to her and see what moves she had outside the ring. The cowboy was kinda letting his mind wander a bit as he let her go, it was like doing a Texan dance in a way like in those bars.

But Gyro got complacent in his thinking and it allowed Kasumi to take full advantage of the situation, because the next thing the Italian Stallion knew she was executing a cartwheel on him and then she exploded out the gate with a swift dropkick! That was like a shotgun blast to the chest and suddenly Gyro knew what Johnny felt that day they went out together.

"Guack!" Gyro yelled as he was sent barrelling across the ring, before being reduced to a crumpled heap on the mat pondering just where the heck did that foxy momma learn to step like that!

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi was able to knock Gyro around with that one. Her "Ninetail Roll" managed to catch Gyro off guard, as she showed that she was able to escape from mat slam attempt that Gyro tried, which was then followed up with her performing a drop kick that knocked her opponent down; sending him crashing onto the mat.

Now, Kasumi could've kept going, but she decided to tease Gyro a bit. She didn't want the match to end just yet. The crowd was cheering so why should she end the fun there.

She posed in the middle of the ring and letting Gyro see her.

"Don't tell me you're down not." Kasumi teased Gyro as she gave him a chance to get back up.

Alright Gyro was going to be sore by the end of this match and he knew that going in, Kasumi though wasn't hitting like some gal in a bar. Nah this fox knew what she was doing and it was driving the Italian Stallion wild with both interest and annoyance, almost made him wonder more about what she had outside the ring to boot. He was expecting some more acrobatics from her but instead the cheeky fox decided to sway and taunt him a little, to which he actually gave a little smirk as he rolled backwards and got into a stance and flicked his long blonde hair back.

"The sight of you can invigorate anyone, La mia Signora Volpe." Gyro said letting his native Italian charm slip out before he then sprinted right at Kasumi, the cowboy always tried to keep things moving after all. As he bolted at Kasumi he'd try to grab her by the arms......to seemingly lead her into a sort of mock tango dance, only to then pivot his hips and try to swiftly hip toss the fox right onto the mat following his distraction!

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi listened to Gyro and smirked at her opponent using a bit of his charm and flirting with her. She decided to humour Gyro as she let him lead her into a mock tango dance, then going for the hip toss.

As Kasumi was tossed, she was able to quickly recover from it and landed gracefully.

"Was that your way of trying to ask me out to dinner?" Kasumi teased back with a smirk.

[Deus001]

Gyro was thinking that if he managed to get Kasumi slammed down he might be able to start high flying and styling on her ass while she was crumpled down on the mat, but the wily fox could roll with the best of them as Gyro soon discovered as even his creative feint proved to not be enough to catch her off guard as while the toss connected the fox slipped away from him as he moved to try and grapple with her.

Still Gyro kept a smirk on and said "I'm hoping to after all this, if you'd let me Signora~" this lady was something else if she could keep slipping out his grasp, might have been too much lady for most guys but not the Italian Stallion. He would sprint towards her and try to launch out a series of kicks that alternated left and right and put those horse riding legs of his to good use and see if he could tag her a bit in this exchange.

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi smirked in response to Gyro's comeback as she saw him come at her with a series of kicks. For the time being, she worked to avoid and dodge the kicks that Gyro made. The goal for the time being was to have Gyro exhaust some energy a bit before she would decide to counter attack. This caused her to back up a bit into a corner. She would then make a taunting gesture that showed off her looks, but was to make Gyro charge her.

Spoiler

If this taunt worked, she would have Gyro charge at her, only for her to side step him and have him collide into the corner.

[Deus001]

Okay Gyro was thinking he had this kitsune's mindset written down now, he was just gonna need to stay on the offence and try to overwhelm her with his acrobatics. The cowboy was bouncing on his feet as he tried to make sure his eyes were staying up there because if he wanted to get with a lady well Gyro had to make sure he was showing respect, even if they flaunted what they got.

Then Kasumi had to shake it for him, okay if she was gonna be a tease then Gyro was off to the races as he lunged in trying to nail Kasumi with a clothesline. Only to fall in the trap that the kitsune had laid out for him and stumbled right into the corner, Gyro let out a loud grunt and staggered in the corner open to whatever whims that Kasumi had in store for him!

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi made that taunting gesture that was to goad Gyro to come at. And of course, he took the bait; hook line and sinker. He was now charging at her.

Having fallen for her trick, Gyro was not anticipating for what came next. Just before Gyro got in range of Kasumi, the kitsune sidestepped him as he ran past her.

There was a resounding *THUD!* as she smirked at seeing Gyro crashing into the corner.

Wasting no, she ran in to ram him with a quick back body splash to further stun him. Once that landed, she would roll back and out of reach of Gyro should he not be stunned.
