Asuka Hisashi vs. GASTER

[DizzyKnight]

Asuka let out a frustrated moan at feeling Gaster grab hold of her before she was even able to get back on her feet. Her opponent seemed to be pretty fast, making Asuka wonder for how long the masked wrestler had been fighting before she was matched up against the Japanese streamer.

Gaster also seemed to enjoy using power moves repeatedly, which gave Asuka some hope that maybe the girl would end up slowing down and tired far earlier than herself, with how much energy the two lightweights had to expend to throw eachother around like that.

To try and break Gaster's seemingly unstoppable onslaught and get some offense of her own in, Asuka tried to ram her fist into the Shadow Lord's belly as soon as she was dragged up onto her feet!

[Vc0m]

Just before the Shadow Lord could slam the streamer on her back, Asuka would resist being lifted by well-placed, strong punches into the masked girl's gut!

"OOF! OOF!", as a result of the attack, GASTER let go of Asuka, taking a few steps back while doubling down over the pain in her stomach, while trying to get air that was driven out by Asuka's punches back into her lungs. However, the unintentional recovery had left GASTER wide open for another attack from Asuka!

[DizzyKnight]

She hadn't really had much chance to practice her striking ability in the ring in a real match before, but Asuka wasn't going to let the chance slip by. With Gaster reeling and forced onto the defence, Asuka started to advance in a boxing stance. She threw out some quick punches towards Gaster's head and abdomen, and accompanied each one with a kick at the masked lightweight's shins or knees, aiming to bully her mysterious opponent backwards into the corner where she'd essentially treat the self-proclaimed Shadow Lord's belly as a punching bag!

[Vc0m]

With Shadow Overlord trying to recover while her opponent regained her senses, she expected to quickly get her momentum back, and maybe snap a submission move on Asuka for a good measure.

She couldn't be any more wrong with her plan. Within a moment, the streamer would let loose with surprisingly strong punches (considering her frame) on GASTER. Not reacting in time, she let a few punches to her head and abdomen through. And although she tried to block what Asuka threw at her afterwards, the earlier punches did their damage. Add to it the fact that Asuka was also targeting lower parts of GASTER's legs, and she fell victim to her foe's trap as she was quickly driven into the corner.

And Asuka didn't let up on her punches in the corner. If anything, she seized the opprotunity and unloaded an even stronger barrage of punches to the girl's belly, grunting with each punch as more and more air was driven out of her each time. She would try to shove the streamer away from her, but even if she did succeed in getting Asuka off of her, she would still be too winded down to follow up, quietly dropping to a seat in the corner instead, holding her abused and still aching stomach.

[DizzyKnight]

Feeling she had done enough damage to her mysterious masked opponent, Asuka took a few steps back to the middle of the ring and stood with both feet together and arms raised close to her chest, watching Gaster with a smirk on her face. She had to admit that Gaster could put out a lot of damage and had an incredibly formidable offense, but it seemed her awful defense made up for it if their previous exchange was any indication.

Seeing how long Gaster was taking to get back up, Asuka took the moment to brush her smooth brown hair back out of her face and look around the crowded arena for a couple seconds. The audience seemed just as large as her previous matches, perhaps a little larger, but somehow appeared to be more invested in Asuka beating Gaster, perhaps eager to see who was behind the mask.

[Vc0m]

As Asuka stopped her assault on the Shadow Lord, GASTER still sat at the turnbuckle, trying to get oxygen back to her lungs. Thankfully for her, Asuka gave her a minute to recover, as she took a look at the crowd as they cheered over the 2 fighters in the ring.

With Asuka taking her time to look at the crowd, GASTER would, somewhat, get her breathing back in order:

"OK, note to self, don't allow her to go for punches ever again..., Clara would think to herself, trying to figure out a way to get back at the japanese streamer/wrestler.

Then, as Asuka would have her back to the Shadow Lord, said Lord would figure out a way of counter-attacking against her opponent.

She would quickly rise from her seat at the turnbuckle and grab Asuka's left hand, before putting it around her back with one hand, while the other would go around streamer's neck. Once she would lock the two hands together, GASTER would trap her opponent in Crossface Chickenwing:

"Never turn your back to a lord!", she would boast if she were successful.

[DizzyKnight]

The sound of her opponent's footsteps on the somewhat squishy canvas gave away Gaster's presence to the Japanese girl. Asuka spun in place fast and brought her hands up to defend, but Gaster was just as fast, if not a little quicker. As a result, Gaster's plan half-succeeded, and she managed to catch Asuka's left hand but without the surprise she intended, letting Asuka fight back enough to turn it into a lockup, though with each girl only competing with one hand.

Asuka's other hand went around the top of Gaster's tight-fitting leggings, pulling her inwards in what might look like a sorta seductive move. At the same time, she leaned in so close that her nose touched the front of her opponent's bright yellow mask. "I didn't, because you aren't a lord of anything, miss." she teased, putting on a smug grin and a fake angry stare. Asuka hoped to catch Gaster out with her dominance, as the display left the streamer pretty open to attack from the other lightweight.

If nothing else, Asuka's showing-off managed to please the crowd, who certainly didn't mind looking at the intimate-looking struggle.

[Vc0m]

GASTER was fairly surprised with the speed and reaction of her opponent, as Asuka would manage to turn around just in time, and catch the Shadow Lord's hand that was supposed to catch her arm around her back.

Just as GASTER would try and catch the streamers hand again into a wristlock, Asuka would do something unexpected...and pull GASTER closer by her leggings.

As Asuka would tease GASTER with her taunting and expression on her face, underneath the mask, Clara found herself very flustered, and red in cheeks with the way Asuka held her close. With how Asuka looked into the mask's eyeholes, she might actually see her opponent's skin getting a tint of red on it.

However, with Asuka attempting to show her dominance to the Shadow Lord, GASTER would quickly realize her advantageous position! She would very quickly raise her knee, and deliver a strong blow into the Japanese streamer's gut!

With Asuka (hopefully) letting go of GASTER's leggings, and doubling down in pain, the Masked Lord would try and quickly get her opponent's head under her arm, and grab her leg with her other hand, as she would try and finish what she tried and failed to do earlier, and that is to deliver a harsh Snap Suplex to her opponent! What made the situation even worse for Asuka is that, if GASTER were successful, she would be driven backfirst into the corner's turnbuckles as a result of the manuever!

[DizzyKnight]

Asuka's display of dominance over her opponent was very quickly shut down, much to the audience's dismay. She became too distracted trying to get a look at her opponent's face beneath the mask, and Gaster took the opportunity to get back on the offensive with a fast knee into the side of Asuka's abdomen. The move sent Asuka back a step, making her bend forwards and wrap her arms over her belly.

As quickly as ever, Gaster followed on with more offense, pulling Asuka's slim frame forwards into a headlock and leaving the brunette wriggling and squirming in her grasp. The audience cheered for the display when the masked wrestler leaned forwards and scooped up the back of Asuka's knee with one hand, and then threw her up and over and then down hard on her back with a snap suplex.

The move blew a lot of the air out of Asuka's lungs, erupting out in a sort of "Nnnnghhyhaa!" sound from the streamer's mouth. With both girls down on the canvas, Asuka tried to re-take the initiative by twisting over and attempting to squirm her way around onto Gaster's back, where she'd attempt a sleeperhold on the other lightweight, wrapping her legs around Clara's waist if she could.

[Vc0m]

With GASTER successfully slamming Asuka onto the mat, the Masked Lord thought she had successfully turned the tide of the match to her favour, especially after the painful sound that the streamer made.

However, she quickly found out how wrong she was, as Asuka would attempt wrap her hands around the Shadow Lord's head for a sleeper hold, and her legs around her torso for bodyscissors!

GASTER would manage to keep her foe's legs at bay, to ensure Asuka won't try to try to neither push oxygen out of her lungs, nor would she attempt to crush her ribcage. The sleeper hold was the actual problem for GASTER. Although she was more or less ok with doing submission holds, she wasn't the one to endure the pain or KO capabilities of submission moves.

As such, she had to hurry and escape the headlock before Asuka would get the hold fully locked in. Although power wasn't her strongest suit either, GASTER would try and lift herself and Asuka to her feet, while holding her foe's legs in a piggyback position. Then, she would attempt and run as fast as possible towards the opposite corner, turning at the last moment to crash Asuka into the turnbuckle to try and make her release the hold!
