Marzia Servelli vs. Chigusa Yuuki

[CaptainL]

Marzia, having spent her energy, couldn't do much more than sit and watch as Chigusa celebrated her win. She raised her head and brought her hand up to slick some sweat off of her brow, shaking herself to try and clear the cobwebs out of her mind. But after the match she had just fought, she wasn't too shaken up about the results. It had really tested her to her limits, and right now, everything that had just happened in the past few minutes was a haze.

Still, she looked back up at Chigusa, seeing that the purple-haired woman was extending a hand to her. That was a relief, Marzia thought - it seemed she wasn't the type to gloat, and that was something Marzia could appreciate. She didn't like dealing with bullies, outside or inside the ring, and Chigusa looked like a good sport. "Y-Yeah...yeah, I should be fine," she answered. "That was just...quite a match..."

Taking Marzia's hand, Chigusa would help her to get back on her feet, showing the spirit of sportsmanship which earned her the approval of the crowd. After watching quite a thrilling match, the crowd decided that this was a nice wrap up for both Chigusa and Marzia. "Good to hear. You're pretty good," Chigusa said, smiling as she patted Marzia's shoulder.

Then, she would step back and give the Italian girl a bow. "Let's meet again someday. I'm looking forward to face you in the ring again in the future," she said before she made her way out of the ring, heading over to the exit where she could finally have her rest for tonight. After a hard-fought victory, it's only proper for her to give herself a good rest for the night.

Even if she had lost, Marzia found herself starstruck, standing back in the ring as Chigusa departed it. The former Wrestle Angel said it herself - Marzia was pretty good! And that was coming from an established wrestler with plenty of history behind her career - though, granted, Marzia wasn't an expert on that subject, but she had picked up enough locker room talk to recognize that Chigusa was a big deal. A smile spread its way across her face, with a blush soon following. Even if Marzia hadn't managed to secure many wins...if there was one thing consistent about her performance, it was that she always secured results and gave it her all, and it left her opponents wowed by her efforts. And now, Chigusa respected her well enough to look ahead to their next meeting. Marzia couldn't wait herself, after making such a bond.

After a while, though, Marzia picked up on the most obvious fact - that she was still in the ring, and the match was over. The ref girl started to clear her throat, just as the thought came to the Italian girl. "Er, right-! Of course!" she said, before going to head out of the ring. She hoped, though, that she might run into Chigusa later, so that she might be able to thank her.
