Amaya continued to press and twist on the hold, trying to cause as much pain as she could to Haruka and wear her down which seemed to be going smoothly as she had a sly smirk at her cry of pain. However, that smirk faded just as quickly when she felt the both of them begin to move along the canvas towards the ropes as Amaya's eyes and large eyebrows shot up in realization.
Haruka was crawling and pulling them to the ropes to try and force a rope break.
Amaya was presented with two options. Either option A, she simply keep the hold locked and try to do as much damage as she could before Haruka made it to the ropes to force a break at which point she would have to let go. Or option B, she would have to quickly break the hold herself and stand to try and grab a leg to pull Haruka back to the center of the ring to prevent her from using the rope break to escape her grasp. Given the rush of the situation she knew she had to make a decision quickly, and in that time she decided to gamble as she went to break her hold which removed the stress she placed on the leg but Amaya was quick to follow that up as she stood and aimed to grab her ankle.
"No you don't, those ropes are not gonna save you." Amaya said with a cold tone as she had a simple goal to try to pull Haruka back to the center of the ring; away from the safety of the ropes so that she could try and lock in some other, more secure submission hold in the leg lock's place.
