Battle of the Immortals: Daughters of Athena vs Divine Stars

[MrBrightside]

Nate made no move to get off of Korina after dropping his body down on her. Instead he continued to lay on top of her, hooking her leg and putting his arm across her face in an attempt to pin her. As the referee slid into position to make the count, Xenia stood by on the apron. She knew Kate was staring daggers at her ready to intercept her should she try to break up the pin. Xenia didn’t feel that was necessary though. She knew her sister had much more fight in her and was confident in her ability to kick out on her own.

Korina had been rocked by the offense she had taken, but she was far from done. The disrespect Nate had been showing her only added more fuel to the fire. The referee’s hand came down on the mat and they counted one. But before they could come back down again, Korina got her shoulder up off the mat.

Seizing one of Korina's legs, Nate would lift it as he anchored his weight on his fellow Divine. He would see the referee get in position and start the count. The referee hand slammed the canvas, indicating the one count. His heartbeat would start to rise from the excitement and thrill of the count. The official would raise their hand and begin to lower it for the two-count. But Nate would feel his position being broken before the hand slammed. The count had been broken at a quick one. It was a bit frustrating, but the match hadn't been going for too long. Plus, surprising opponents with a pin would keep them on their toes.

"Oh, well, that much should be expected from a divine." remarked Nate with a cocky tone.

Repositioning himself, the male wrestler would attempt to wrench Korina's arm with his two hands before attempting to ensnare it with his two legs, trying to place her in an armbar. If successful, he would start to pull back, ramping up the pressure quickly. If he managed to lock this in, he would be in the perfect spot, the center of the ring, further from the ropes!

Kate, during this time, had been watching everything unfold. It seemed that Xenia hadn't made a move, not that it was needed. The female Divine Star would then observe as her partner attempted an armbar submission. "Come on, Nate, show them what you are capable of." barked Kate as if she were a drill sergeant who was encouraging their own troops.

While it was still early in the match, kicking out of a pin attempt at the count of one made a statement. By doing so Korina was telling her opponent that he’ll have to do better than that if he wants to take her down.

But just because she kicked out of a pin attempt didn’t mean she was no longer in danger. Nate was quick to go back on the attack, grabbing her arm and attempting to wrap his legs around it to trap her in an armbar. Thinking fast, Korina grabbed the wrist in his grip with her other arm and pulled it close to her chest to prevent Nate from locking in the hold. Then she attempted to use her legs to move her body until she was out from under his legs. From there she would bridge up and stack her opponent so she would be in a better position to retrieve her arm. If she managed to free her arm then she would then fire back with a kick aimed at his head.
