Izumi took a deep breath while bouncing from heel to heel in preparation for her match tonight, the semi final match in the double or nothing tournament with just this upcoming opponent and one more after her being in the way of victory in this tourney. It was thrilling to think that she was so tantalizingly close to her first major accolade in LAW and there was no way in hell that after the hellish bouts she had gone through so far that she'd fall now.

Stopping on both feet and taking a final deep breath to focus Izumi would then begin to make her way forward through the backstage halls to the entrance ramp. Once there Izumi would look down and clear her thoughts before her music began to echo through the arena, finally stepping forward and making her entrance for the fans!

Coming out from the curtain and immediately kicking her leg into the air Izumi would smile softly as she held the limb aloft for a moment as the fans cheered loudly in response for her. Granted Izumi had been popular before her entry into the Double or Nothing tournament but her performance thus far had definitely helped to amplify how well liked she was. Especially given her particular choice in tight azure blue attire.

Lowering her leg down to the mat Izumi would then begin to make her way down to the ramp, a noticeable sway to her hips as she further enhanced the cheers and wolf whistles she got. Leaning around Izumi would high five fans on her way down to the ring before hopping onto the ring apron. Turning around and smiling out at the crowd Izumi would hold her arm out, posing for the fans before leaning back onto the middle rope and reclining back, smoothly entering the ring before heading to the center of the ring and turning, watching the entrance ramp for her opponent.

"Nope. Nuh Uh. That ain't real. Gimme that..." Allison sported a look of disbelief. The coin sandwiched between her index and thumb seemed very real, with the sturdiness and sheen of a metal. She still took a closer look, squinting her eyes to see if she was being deceived, but everything checked out. Leaning against the wall near the entrance of the lockers, Allison's attention was currently captured entirely by this shiny, round currency.

"But...you didn't have anything in your hand. And I didn't feel this coin behind my ear when you pulled it out..." The raven-haired woman mused, her light-grey pearls shifting from the stagehand who dazzled her with the magic trick, and the coin which she pulled from behind Allison's ear.

"Heh...you know what? That was a fluke" She straightened herself up, arms folded under the shapely bust as she declared with absolute surity. "I bet that was just dumb luck. You won't be able to repeat it a second ti— Whoaa!!!" This time, Allison was left dumbfounded, her widened pupils and the exclamation of astonishment being the consequence of the trick being repeated. But this time, the stagehand decided to go one step ahead, pulling a chicken nugget from behind her ear!

Before this show could go on any longer, another member of the backstage crew barged into the interaction to remind the raven-haired woman that the reason she was dressed in her wrestling layers, the match that required her participation, was about to commence.

Allison's fit

"This isn't over, lady. I shall be back later to dig deeper into this!" Allison poked at the lady's shoulder as she passed her by, making her way to the Gorilla Position.

This was the Quarterfinals of the Double-Or-Nothing tourney—a unique competition where one got a second chance to get back up after going down. Till now, Allison hadn't had to go down that path, instead sailing into the crunch part of the tourney pretty straightforwardly.

But whatever twist in the tale was in store for Allison, it was bound to happen from now on.

Izumi Tachibana. Next up to face her. That last name held a huge legacy in this federation and beyond. Allison was about to throw down with the sibling of the company's hentai royalty.

She watched on intently as the cute Bluenette strutted down the ramp and nodded with an appreciative smirk, seeing that pronounced sway in her gait. The Bluenette, from the looks of it, certainly wasn't averse to playing the audience, who, as expected, were captivated by her opponent's energy.

It was now her turn to enter the curtain. Rolling her shoulders and wrists as she approached the curtain, Allison nodded to the crew and emerged to a rousing reception for her. She remained still for a few moments, taking it all in and scanning the crowd, the signs, the chants and whatnot, before making her way down the ramp. No haste or hurry. She strolled with leisure, bumping fists with a few, and high-fiving others, until she neared the ring.

Allison mounted the steps while gazing around and made her way onto the apron, where she hooked her arms over the top rope to lean back in a sensual arch to accentuate her torso and abs, topping it off with a wink. The spotlights did their job, hitting the curves just right. A final treat for the frenzied fanatics, after which she made her way in, where Izumi awaited.

A customary handshake was going to be initiated by the raven-haired woman. "Cheers to making it this far. Didn't expect anything less from a Tachibana" Allison nodded in acknowledgement.

"Let's give these people a fight worthy of a Quarter-Final, yeah? But before that..." Allison would look to reach for the tiny horns on Izumi's head to poke, just to make sure they weren't real.

"Hmm...real or not, they're cute for sure..." Her lips formed a lopsided grin, stating that while awaiting Izumi's response...
