Prince meets the Ace

[Teenwrestler]

The wrestling prince, Daisuke Takeuchi was coming in fresh from a hard loss against Mae Madison. Life at LAW wasn't as easy as he thought and the wrestlers were proving to be much more of a competition than the previous promotion. Still, the wrestling prince came to LAW to wrestle the best and put his claim to be the best wrestler in LAW. After his loss to the Star Spangled Grappler, it was back to the drawing board for Daisuke. He would have to be train harder, stronger and faster if he was going to climb up all the way up to the top of the LAW roster ladder.

Backstage in the locker room, he stepped out of the shower and quickly dried himself off before putting on his CK briefs and a pair of wrestling boots. Checking himself in the mirror and adjusting his attire, he would grab his gym bag before heading out to the main gym area.

Daisuke

Daisuke was looking confident but inside he was doubting himself, he needed to pick up a decisive win against a good opponent in order to get his confidence up again. Which is why a trip to the gym was perfect, the wrestling prince would put his gym bag down a nearby bench before working his way to one of the training dummy's and began to practice some grapples and strikes.

"Grugh! Arugh" he grunted in effort, while working up a light sheen of sweat.

Misaki Toyoda was planning to do some training at the gym, and she came to the gym in her normal workout outfit which consisted of red sports bra and red bottoms. Carrying a bag which contained all the essentials, she entered the gym. Once she was inside, she considered what to do next. Shecould do some weight-lifting or just practice with the dummy.

As she considered what to do, she saw a man training hard. Well, good for him, she thought to herself. As for her, she went to tape her hands before she went to do some weight-lifting for a bit. She couldn't afford to slack off, not while she was at her peak. Working on her muscles was essential in keeping her in shape in and out of the ring.

The wrestling prince was busy doing this wrestling training with the training dummy, improving his grapple and strikes while working up a sweat. He noticed someone walk by and give him a look before walking off to do her own thing. Daisuke instantly recognized her, she was the famous Misaki Toyoda, the Ace of Berserk, one the best wrestlers around. Daisuke would stop and take a moment to catch his breath before going to his gym bag and grabbing a bottle of water and then making his way towards Misaki. He simply had to meet her, rumor had it that she and Trent did a wrestling marathon challenge in which she did a 3-0 clean sweep against the leader of the Dominion.

He would walk towards her, moving from the front so that she wasn't going to be startled. There wasn't much crowd around and he certainly didn't want to make a scene just yet. "Nice form" he complimented her whilst she did her weight training. The prince would wipe the sweat off his face and chest with the towel before hanging it around the back of his neck. "Misaki Toyoda, what an honor it is to meet the Ace of Berserk" he said, extending his hand for a handshake.

"So, I've been hearing you beat Trent in some sort of special challenge of his? Congratulations." he grinned.

Misaki was doing some weightlifting in order to train her muscles when she was approached by someone, a guy. He then complimented her form, and she momentarily stopped her training as she straightened herself up, looking at the man, who was admittedly quite a handsome specimen of man. "Ah, thank you..." she said in response to the compliment.

Seeing the man extending a handshake, Misaki saw no reason to refuse as she shook his hand. Then she listened more to him, hearing about the challenges that she had with one Trent Masters. "Well, about that... it's not like I could refuse his challenge, right?" Misaki said, beaming at the man. "And I could use some workouts too, thanks to him. Putting that aside, it seems you already know about me, but to whom am I speaking to right now?" The Ace of Berserk asked for the man's name.

It was obvious Daisuke who knew she was but the same was not true on the flip side. Everyone who had some wrestling knowledge knew who Misaki Toyoda was and despite her fame, she was one of the humble people around. The same could not be said about the wrestling prince though, if he had the same amount of fame as Misaki did, his nose would always be up in the clouds. Still, he started off the conversation with decency, complimenting the Ace regarding her form and mentioning the fact that she had beaten the leader of Dominion in a wrestling marathon.

He noticed that Misaki was checking him out, he couldn't blame her after all, he was doing the same. The two seemed to eye each other out for a bit as Daisuke even flexed his sweaty frame for her a bit as they spoke. "Ah but of course. How rude of me" he said, gently taking her hand and raising it up and kissing the back of her hand. "My name is Daisuke Takeuchi" he replied.

"And yes, I have heard that about you- that you rarely turn down a challenge. Something I admire of you but really, Misaki, you should be wrestling more tougher opponents, one that can be worthy of your presence in the ring" he said with a smirk.

Misaki smiled at Daisuke as he introduced himself. "It is nice to meet you, Takeuchi-san." She raised an eyebrow when the man took her hand and kissed it as they shook hands. She didn't think too much about it, though, thinking that it might be one of his quirks. After all, this was LAW, and there was no shortage of quirky people here in LAW.

And then, Misaki gave Daisuke a questioning look when he mentioned that she should fight those who were tougher, those who were worthy to be with her in the ring. "Well, about that..." She scratched the back of her head. "If I were you, I wouldn't be so quick to judge someone's worth based on their in-ring skills. With enough hard work, I'm sure everyone can stand victorious in the ring..." She recalled that she also started out from the bottom back then when she began wrestling after quitting being an idol, and she only went up from there.

Chivalry was not dead, at least to the prince. Doing justice to his wrestling prince persona, he gave her the royal treatment of kissing the back of her hand as a greeting gesture. Misaki seemed unfazed by this and simply raised an eyebrow and didn't seem to comment on it. She didn't like it nor hated it and simply passed it off as an odd quirk.

However, Misaki was quickly catching on to the arrogant prince who seemed to believe that their is a higher class of wrestlers in LAW which stand out from the rest. To his credit, he did put Misaki in the bracket of the elite class wrestlers but the more humble Misaki didn't seem that was the case, much to the disappointment of the wrestling prince.

Daisuke would grin as he eyed Misaki from head to toe before continuing, "Ah, is that you think Misaki-san? Interesting" he said tapping his foot on the floor. "Well, I believe that you are either born a great wrestler or you just are a common filth. It's just an innate thing you have. Luckily, both of us do have the innate ability of being elite wrestlers"" he said with a light chuckle.

"Elite level wrestlers such as ourselves should stick together, Trent wasn't in your league" he added.

[PrinceArjuna332]

Misaki narrowed her eyes as she listened to what Daisuke was saying. From the sound of it, it seemed like Daisuke was the kind of elitist wrestler who looked down on the others. "Is that so?" Misaki mused as she looked at the man. "In that case, I have to disagree. If you think that we are either born talented or untalented, then I am entirely against what you stand for..."

She gave Daisuke a determined look. "Unlike what you thought, I am not talented. I had to endure countless losses at the beginning of my career, because I had nothing in me. But I strove to improve myself, and it brought me here..." She held out her arms as she then gestured to herself. "It is not my talent that brings prestige to me. It is my hard work. And I can't accept what you said earlier, Takeuchi-san..." she said.

[Teenwrestler]

It seemed as if Daisuke had misjudged the great Misaki Toyoda after all. She spoke of hard work and determination over natural born talent. He would glare at her as she spoke of those values, even giving him a determined look while mentioning that it was hard work that had gotten her to where she was today. The wrestler would would rub his chin, not looking impressed at all by her words despite his initial impressions about her. He would pause for a bit, then sighed in disappointment before continuing.

"You don't have to pretend about all that infront of me, Misaki-san. However, if you really mean all those things then perhaps that means I was wrong about you" he said, glaring into her eyes. Daisuke would then slowly step forward, looking to press into Misaki for a heated head to head staredown, looking right into her eyes, wanting to see her reaction.

"If you had suffered countless losses before, then perhaps you would care to add another loss to that?" he grinned, speaking softly. He would remain infront of her, pressing his forehead into hers before continuing, "how about we have ourselves a match here? You and me? your values versus mine and we'll see whose right. Should I win...I expect you to crown your prince by kissing my feet and admitting I am the better wrestler" he said, raising the stakes.

[PrinceArjuna332]

Misaki didn't flinch as Daisuke went to invade her personal space, pressing his forehead against hers. She had seen this kind of person before, and she was sure that this wouldn't be the last. "Well, I didn't say I'm actually looking to lose, you know? Alright, you get the match. But, if I win..." She smiled at him. "You get to help me out doing gym workout here for a week. After I rub my butt all over your face, that is..." She giggled after saying that.

She would step back, stepping away from Daisuke. "So, what kind of match do you want? Do you want to do this in the ring or in a mat?" She asked.
