Taking Flight! Kaguya Hojo vs Valkyrie

[Bare]

Kaguya grunted softly as she tightened and pulled on Valkyrie's leg, twisting and pulling the limb to try and amplify the pain that was surely surging up the girl's limb now as a result of the submission. In truth Kaguya didn't know much about her opponent other than her name or style, so her unintentionally targeting the limb that had issues in the past would be a total surprise to her later. Either way as is Kaguya's whole focus was on maintaining the hold!

Something that admittedly became a bit more difficult as the girl across from her thrashed and struggled about. That in and of itself wasn't too bad however. What was an issue was starting to send kicks Kaguya's way in a effort to make her leg go! "Ngh! Agh!" Kaguya grunted as the strikes connected, making her grunt and grit her teeth as a bit of water started to build in her eyes. 'Gotta thing of something and fast!' The idol thought to herself as she pulled on the hold despite the pain loosening her grip somewhat.

Despite the pain however Kagua would come up with something within a few moments.. and a few more kicks. However Kaguya would, while holding onto her opponent's leg, undo her own from Valkyrie's. So by getting her feet under her Kaguya would look to try and roll her opponent over onto her stomach before bending back, trying to pull her opponent's leg down with her in a bid to transition the hold into a single legged boston crab!

[Valkyrie]

While the hold Kaguya was working put Valkyrie in considerable amount of pain, she was still rather fresh, hence make it relatively easy for her to fight back and at least attempt to break free from the leg bar she was in. A couple of kicks made Kaguya’s hold a little more loose and forced her to reposition. Unfortunately for Valkyrie, however, forcing her opponent to transition to a different move was going to prove even more painful for her already damaged leg.

In fact, Kaguya expertly kept control of Valkyrie’s left leg and simply forced her to turn her body to the side, to then trap her in a prone position. Kaguya got a firm hold of Valkyrie’s left leg, as she trapped her shin underneath her armpit, while squatting down in her one piece suit and putting some real torque on that left leg, in what’s called a Single Leg Boston crab in wrestling terms. The move got a solid reaction from the crowd in the first row, with a few clapping sounds emerging from the surroundings.

Valkyrie was now bullied in a very dangerous predicament as her opponent seemed to have put a bullseye on that left leg. “Damn it… this is not good” she muttered to herself. She couldn’t blame Kaguya for going right after that limb. After all, Valkyrie was a notoriously quick and agile wrestler, as her size would have suggested to even the least knowledgeable of her colleagues. Taking out one of her legs would have severely hindered her movements and made it considerably harder for her to connect with her highflying offense. The referee was right on top of the action and immediately asked Valkyrie if she was okay to continue. She firmly said yes… but now she had to figure out a way to escape that predicament… and possibly do so before Kaguya were able to put too much damage on her exposed leg.

The at first unintentional targeting of Valkyrie's leg had turned into a big boon for Kaguya in her debut bout. Locking in leg based hold after hold Kaguya was intent on taking the girl's speed and agility away from her, giving Kaguya a massive advantage as the match would continue, in turn also pushing Kaguya's budding submission knowledge to its limits as she continued to pull on the girl's leg with the single legged boston crab.

However Kaguya knew that Valkyrie wouldn't take this hold sitting down. Nor would she be able to hold it forever, all it would take was the girl getting too used to any one hold or managing to climb her way to the ropes for a rope break. So Kaguya intended to keep the holds changing as much as possible to keep Valkyrie from getting too used to anything she was doing, and the next one the idol had in mind would also be perfect for keeping the girl under her locked down for longer.

Getting up with her opponent' leg in hand Kaguya would step between her opponent's limbs and wrap them around her own leg. As she did so Kaguya would fall backwards on top of the woman's back, putting intense pressure on both girl's legs as she did so! But that wasn't it. As she did so Kaguya would reach forward, wrapping her arms around Valkyie's face and locking her hands in a tight, secure grip before pulling backwards, aiming to bend the girl's neck backwards as she locked in a painful STF hold to really make the idea of tapping out as appealing to the girl as possible!

[Valkyrie]

Kaguya had Valkyrie nice and tight in the single leg Boston crab and she was definitely enjoying her control of the match early on. Valkyrie did not have a lot of room to maneuver and was stuck in a very uncomfortable and painful predicament as her left leg was being jerked left and right by the young grappler. Kaguya definitely had to realize her strategy was being effective the way Valkyrie was panting and grunting from the pain, despite it being still early on in the match.

In an effort to keep her opponent guessing, Kaguya transitioned nicely into a different move. She trapped and bent Valkyrie’s left leg around her own before dropping down with her weight and trying to lock into a STF variation. Despite Kaguya being rather small, Valkyrie wasn’t that much bigger and definitely felt her weigh being dropped on top of her back. Besides, that left leg was still being tormented and the pressure was surely mounting to considerable degrees.

Sensing what was about to come next, Valkyrie decided she was gonna make her opponent work for it. In fact, she had already opened the palm of her hands, ready to catch the wrists of Kaguya as they were approaching her neck, trying to get a good grip around it. If successful Valkyrie would have wrapped each hand around both of Kaguya’s wrists, effectively keeping them from reaching her neck. Her intent was to force Kaguya to reposition and potentially give up on her STF attempt, maybe to transition to a different leg wrenching move. Speaking of legs, Valkyrie’s bad knee was definitely still under a lot of pressure, being jerked and kept in position between the firm thighs of Kaguya in what was quite the awkward predicament… the crowd was loving it though! It was like a game of chess played on the mats! Neither one of them was going to give an inch to her opponent!

So far the match had gone all but perfectly for Kaguya. Their start had been evenly paced with both girls showing a good knowledge of grappling and technical skill despite each being new to the world of wrestling. In spite of that however Kaguya had managed to take the advantage with a single move that targeted the leg. Something her opponent seemed to take exception too and causing Kaguya to target it.

As she did so the idol was putting on display just how skilled with submissions and chain wrestling she was, not only managing to target her opponent's leg, but put it through the ringer with skill and flair! All that remained to be seen was how much could Valkyrie take before managing to counter or tap. Obviously Kaguya would have preferred the latter but at the same time... a part of her wished for this bout to continue further, to see more of what each of them can do!

As if hearing this wish and answering Valkyrie did just that, grabbing at Kaguya's wrists before she could fully lock in her submission attempt, blocking the girl's transition and making it difficult to maintain her current position. "Ngh..." Grunting softly it wouldn't take Kaguya long to back off of her opponent. But she wasn't going to stop her offense. After all Valkyrie's leg was the most vulnerable part of her right now. So thats what she would target.

Untangling their legs from each other Kaguya would reach forward to grab hold of the leg she had been targeting. 'Time to put this one to the test.' The idol thought to herself, holding the limb high by her opponent's foot, looking for a moment as if she was going for a ankle lock. But instead she would drop down to the side, twisting her opponent's leg as she did so, looking to slam the Swede's leg against the mat with a brutal dragon screw!

[Valkyrie]

The two young lionesses kept tussling on the mat as the match was getting more and more intense by the second. Obviously Valkyrie was on the receiving end but she still was putting up quite the fight and wasn’t willing to go down easily. As a young lioness, she still had a whole lot to learn but her heart and determination were already there. Kaguya was gonna have to put her through a lot in order to break her, but it seemed as if that’s exactly what she had planned.

Kaguya’s game plan was simple yet effective. She put a bullseye on Valkyrie’s left leg and she kept targeting it in quite a relentless fashion. While Valkyrie was seemingly able to avoid a fully locked STF, Kaguya still had control of her lower body which allowed her to keep working her leg as she wanted to. She spiked Valkyrie’s leg on the mat with a well executed dragon screw, really putting the hurt on the knee. Valkyrie slapped the mat hard in frustration as she yelled “damn it!”. Frustration was definitely building up as thus far her opponent seemed to be in the driver seat.

Valkyrie knew she had to create some sort of separation between them… and she tried to first drag herself away from her opponent and then awkwardly got back to her feet, visibly limping all the way to the nearby corner. She was struggling to put weight on her left leg, which is something Kaguya surely was going to notice and be happy about. Valkyrie would try and reach the corner, use the rope to straighten herself up and possibly catch a little break. She was fully aware that the corner was a dangerous place to be in, as Kaguya could’ve easily used the ropes to keep the leg torture going… or even the unforgiving steel post which was dangerously close. However, Valkyrie knew she had to stay close to them for as much as possible as to avoid being locked into a submission in the middle of the ring with nowhere to go… besides, if Kaguya wasn’t careful Valkyrie could’ve found a way to turn the table, maybe not right away but as soon as she had found an opening

[Bare]

'Ok wow I see why that move has the reputation it has.' Kaguya thought to herself with a wince as she heard the sound of impact her opponent's knee had with the mat below. 'But necessary.' Kaguya reminded herself. After all it obviously brought her no joy to target Valkyrie's limb, especially with the moves she had been so far. But this was her debut match, something she couldn't afford to lose no matter what. So she would do what she had too do in order to secure that victory.

Getting up Kaguya would watch as her opponent crawled away to the corner, using it as an aid to stand back. Just fine for Kaguya as the idol was already thinking about what offense she would string together next. 'Really sorry about what I'm going to do to you Valkyrie.' The dark haired girl thought to herself as she waited patiently for the blonde girl to get into a standing position. THe moment she would is when she would act. Dashing forward Kaguya would pick up as much speed as she physically was able too. Then the moment she got close enough Kaguya would leap upwards, attempting to land a massive drop kick against her opponent's stomach to hopefully break through any defense she would try to put up and knock her down to a seated position! At least... as long as the girl didn't move from the corner.

[Valkyrie]

Kaguya watched as Valkyrie retreated in the corner. Maybe a little hesitation in seeing her fellow rookie in so much pain, or maybe it was something else. Either way, Valkyrie got enough time to get in the corner and straighten herself up. Kaguya then sized her up and ran towards her trying to connect with a running move in the corner and possibly put an exclamation mark in her already convincing performance.

Valkyrie had other plans however. Sure, the work on the left leg had been effective and she was softened up good… but she still had a lot of fight left in her. Besides, she was struggling to stand… but dropping down to the mat wasn’t that much of a difficult stunt to pull off. In fact, it was easier than standing still for the way her leg was banged up. And so she dropped to the right, trying to time her evasive maneuver right so that Kaguya went flying ass first down on the canvas.

Ideally, if the evasive maneuver was pulled successfully, it was safe to assume Kaguya landed somewhere in the corner, ass down on the canvas and staring at the lights. Perfect position for Valkyrie to follow up… she would try and close Kaguya in the corner before she could stand. She’d try to get a good grip of the top ropes to get a good base to stand and corner her opponent, to then use her good leg, the right one, to stomp a hole in Kaguya. More specifically, Valkyrie would try and target her midsection to potentially soften her up for some scissors later on… but either way she needed to stop her momentum a little and this was a good opportunity if things went as planned

[Bare]

Valkyrie was helpless up in the corner, Kaguya was sure of it. All she had to do was keep up the non stop offense she had started and press her advantage until she managed to get Valkyrie to submit or weak enough to pin. Charging forward Kaguya intended to do just that as she leaped up, soaring through the air in a effort to try and land a massive drop kick on the girl!

Unfortunately for Kaguya however it appeared as if she had taken too long and as a result Valkyrie managed to duck low, avoiding Kaguya and causing the girl's eyes to widen softly as she crashed into the turnbuckle feet first before collapsing on the apron with a soft groan of pain Kaguya would slide down onto the mat before shifting, trying to sit up in the corner at least to make it easier to stand... Only to walk into her opponent's trap.

"Gah!" Crying out in pain as Valkyrie's foot connected with her stomach the Idol immediately clutched her stomach, only for more kicks to follow to the very same spot! "Ngh! Gah! Agh!" Crying out in pain with each kick there wasn't much Kaguya could do, the pain alone was intense and rough to deal with. In fact it took all her focus to grab onto the bottom ropes for the one thing she could think of. Namely using them to roll herself out of the ring and outside, now holding onto the ring apron to keep herself up right as she planned her next move if she was successful.

[Valkyrie]

Valkyrie somehow managed to turn the tide of the match a little and at the very least get some offense in. Kaguya was down on the mat while Valkyrie was methodically and systematically carving a hole in her tight belly. The plan was simple enough yet effective. Besides every second Kaguya didn’t spend working her leg, was a second Valkyrie was using to recover some of the strength of her injured limb.

Her opponent was not going to just stay there and take it though. Kaguya used her smaller frame to her advantage to quickly roll out of the way before the referee could even get in on the action and separate the two for being so close to the ropes. She quickly rolled out of the ring as Valkyrie sighed in frustration… “Damn it.. I can’t allow her to recuperate… I need to stay on her now…” Valkyrie muttered to herself. But how?

Despite her limited mobility due to her leg injury, Valkyrie tried to roll out the ring along with Kaguya, possibly stalking her from behind and hoping she would not notice she was right behind her or in the case she did notice, Valkyrie hoped she was stunned to the point of not being able to do anything about her. Still limping and shaking her left leg to feel it a little, Valkyrie’s plan was to get a hold of her opponent while she was folded over the apron and possibly shove her against the nearby steel steps, ideally making her collide belly first against the unforgiving steel. Obviously it was a bit of an ambitious plan who could’ve backfired in so many ways… but Valkyrie was hoping to pull it off, maybe by helping herself with a good grip of Kaguya’s tight one piece attire. The only way her bodyscissor was gonna be effective was having that midsection softened up enough… and that was exactly the plan she was going with.
