Seaside Stretches: Piper Sherwood vs Julia Hiroshi

[Bare]

Despite some initial bad luck in being forced into a body scissors almost right off the bat from her opponent Piper was an opportunist. The type of person to find anything and everything to get ahead and do so, in this case using Julia's own hold to reverse into one of her own! In this case Piper had managed to successfully reverse them into a boston crab position, one she was doing everything to make Julia feel the effects of!

Smirking as she bent backwards, pulling down on Julia's legs and bending her body in the process Piper would look over her shoulder at what Julia had said. "Hey thats the first smart thing you've said today." The blonde would say over her shoulder while giving a extra bend to her opponent's legs and body in the process. But speaking of smart... Piper noticed that despite the little sounds of pain Julia was releasing it wasn't quite what anyone would expect from this hold which meant...

'Tsk figures a bending submission wouldn't hurt her much.' Thinking to herself with annoyance Piper decided it was time to change up strategies. After all it would be foolish to just keep the crab locked in despite its ineffectiveness, all it would do is afford time for Julia to get to the ropes and earn a rope break. No no no Piper wouldn't allow that.

Instead Piper would actually step from her previous position on either side of Julia's body to break the boston crab. However Piper held onto Julia's ankle and kept a firm grip on the limb before.... "Lets see if you're joints are as flexible as the rest of you!" She would suddenly start twisting Julia's ankle aggressively to the side, effectively locking in a brutal ankle lock on her opponent!

[Noob]

While Julia was certainly uncomfortable, she wasn't close to the stretch being more than she could handle. Of course one of the benefits of being a gymnast was that her flexibility allowed for a high degree of resistance to these types of holds. She of course wasn't immune if stretched far enough but Piper wasn't bringing her to her limit quite yet. Instead to their annoyance, they were still giving Julia plenty of time to make her way towards the rope with them in tow. She made it a couple of inches further towards them until Piper decided to switch up her tactics. While Julia hadn't escaped, she seemed to have at least managed to annoy her foe which was a small victory as far as she was concerned.

Julia let out a sigh of relief as her opponent let her go for a brief moment. That sigh soon turned into a rather loud squeal as a sudden jolt of pain shot through her leg. "Haaah shoot shoot shoot!!!" She cried out, her eyes opening wide. While stretching didn't get to her, joint pain sure did! "Nnnng that huuurrrrts!!!" She whined, her eyes soon shutting tight as she grit her teeth. The effectiveness of the new move was pretty obvious much to Julia's dismay.

Luckily the bluenette had made her way close enough to the ropes before that they were already within reach. There were only a few moments of groaning and gasping before she grabbed onto the ropes tightly. As far a she was concerned though that was plenty time to be enduring the ankle lock before she could let out a sigh of relief.

Julia had certainly earned Piper's ire with her resistance to the blonde's stretch. Or would have if the bluenette didn't already tick Piper off with her smack talk before the stretching contest had begun. Luckily for Piper she had rather quickly found a weakness to Julia's seemingly overly flexible body, namely in the form of a brutal ankle lock targeting the girl's joint.

An effective means of countering a flexible opponent, something Piper knew from experience since the same counter measure had to be used on her in previous bouts given her own flexibility. But you know what they say, takes one to know one, and the former cheerleader was certainly using that knowledge to her best benefit, and Julia's agony.

But unfortunately for Piper the blonde hadn't paid much attention to how close they were to the ropes, and as a result Julia managed to grab hold of them rather quickly... Not that Piper particularly cared. Despite the girl grabbing hold of the ropes Piper continued to twist her captive ankle in the submission, not relinquishing even as the ref began counting. Holding the ankle lock for a full four count Piper waited to the last second before finally undoing the hold, throwing Julia's leg down to the mat as she stepped away from her opponent, the ref getting in front of Piper to admonish her causing the blonde to roll her eyes with a disinterested look on her face in spite of her near disqualification just now.

[Noob]

As soon as she grabbed the ropes Julia expected a quick relief. But to her dismay Piper was still happily twisting her ankle at an increasingly painful angle. "Haah hey hey! Ropes! ROPES!" The bluenette cried out. She'd look back to the referee for help. Unfortunately the slow count wasn't doing wonders for her joint at the moment. For now she'd have to just grit her teeth though until Piper finally let go. Now it was time for the gymnast to take her sigh of relief. "Heck..." She'd mumble. She glared at Piper, and then the referee who she felt did a pitiful job at helping her out. It seemed this match wasn't going to be as much fun and games as she thought.

"Cheap move." Julia huffed as she pulled herself up by the ropes. Her ankle was still quite sore from the hold and so Julia was happy to take her time getting herself up. Eventually she'd reach her feet and stand back up straight, only wincing slightly as she put some more weight on her other foot. "But whatever. Not gonna keep me from using this foot to kick your butt." The bluenette teased. She'd raise her hands and just like that was ready for round two.

While she didn't want to really make the first move, the gymnast wasn't too confident she could keep her footing if she allowed herself to stay on the defensive. And so without much of a wait she'd make her way forwards. As the referee moved out of Piper's way, Julia's body would replace them as she lunged forwards to try and and wrap her arms around Piper's waist swiftly take her to the ground.

Piper smirked confidently as she released the hold, Julia's screams of pain making each second she risked disqualification worth it. Finally dropping the hold she stood up and immediately had to contend with a angry referee getting in the blonde's face for her brazen disrespect for the rules. "Tch whatever you're job is just to count to three and call for a bell to ring so stay out of my way!" She snapped to the ref with no fear of consequence.

However the blonde was met with near immediate karmic punishment as a result for her sheer levels of disrespect. Because the moment she shoved the zebra out of her way Piper was met with a newly standing Julia charging right into her! "Gah Bitch!" Piper screamed as she was taken down, a mix of unpreparedness combined with Julia's speed and weight leaving the blonde unable to retain her footing.

Hitting the mat back first with a "Oof!" Of pain Piper winced as she now felt a new pair of arms around her waist! "Oh so thats how you wanna play huh?!" Piper shrieked in response, her legs suddenly snapping up to try and wrap around Julia's waist. She knew she wouldn't be able to roll away Julia or punch her off. So instead she'd make the blue haired girl pay for the takedown with a vicious body scissors, as well as increase the difficulty in which the girl would have in trying to transition into any other holds.

[Noob]

Julia already knew this match wasn't going to be easy. She would prepare herself for a less than clean fight from Piper. Still she was able to take her foe down. Despite her initial advantage, Piper managed to wrap their legs around her body and squeeze painfully tight. The bluenette would grit her teeth as she tried to fight through the pain. She wasn't without a plan though, it was just going to take a bit more effort now that the other wrestler had her held back a little.

Julia would lean forwards, trying her best to get as close to Piper as she could. "Nnng...that's nothing. Do you even work those thighs out? This is nothing" She'd taunt despite a pained expression. Soon Julia reached forwards, She would try to press her arm down right onto Piper's throat. She was hoping both to silence their annoying taunts and rob them of air. She hoped they'd be persuaded to release their hold before it became too much for Julia to deal with. Meanwhile the blue haired gymnast was just as eager to drain some of the fight from her opponent. If only she could lean in a bit more and really increase the pressure. Unfortunately Piper was currently able to keep holding her back.

Getting knocked down to the mat one may think that Piper was at the disadvantage, but the blonde was nothing if not resourceful. So despite being brought down Piper had snapped her legs up, wrapping them around Julia's waist for a tight body scissors! A simple but effective counter that had left Julia gasping and huffing, unable to do much in retaliation to what the blonde was doing!

Key word being much. But Julia was apparently as resourceful as Piper herself. In particular the blue haired girl had leaned forward, pressing her arm against Piper's throat for a tight choke! "Gahh!" Gasping and gagging from the move Piper instinctively reached up clutching at the arm, trying to pull it away while putting all her focus on using her legs to keep her opponent at bay and preventing the choke from being TOO effective.

'Damn it.. gotta ditch her.' Piper thought to herself desperately while glaring up at the former gymnast. With that in mind Piper would untangle her legs from Julia's waist, bringing them around in between them and bracing her feet on Julia's stomach Piper would kick out with as much strength as she could muster, trying to kick Julia away from her and create some distance!

[Noob]

Despite having her midsection almost crushed by Piper's thighs, Julia was able to apply some solid pressure to her foe. And while neither fighter seemed to be particularly enjoying the situation the cheering crowd appreciated their efforts. "That's right, just let...go!" The bluenette said as she felt her opponent's grasp loosen on her. The moment Piper released her, Julia was able to press down pretty hard for a brief moment. However their strong legs soon kicked Julia right back.

"Waaah hey!" Julia gasped, stumbling a few feet back before falling right onto her ass. She couldn't help but giggle as she pushed herself back up to her feet. "Well that was something." She continued with a smile before turning from side to side to try and alleviate a bit of the pain from the bodyscissors. Soon enough she'd get herself ready to get back in the fray. "Alright. Back to the beatdown." She'd tease, briefly poking her tongue out at Piper before getting in close and making a quick grab for them to try and start off with a tight headlock.

[Bare]

Piper was having a harder time against Julia than she would have liked to admit. Between one of her submissions not being near as effective as she hoped, which meant her submission signature likely wouldn't work very well as well. But she was also giving everything had just to not be taken down and locked into another submission by the girl. Luckily she had been able to mostly counter with a submission of her own. But even that was quickly neutralized by Julia which forced Piper to kick the blue haired girl away from her!

As she stood up however, a look pure spite and annoyance written on her face it was the total opposite of the playful, fun loving expression of her opponent. It was clear that despite being so similar the girl's were total opposites personality wise. As Piper stood and approached Julia the blue haired girl would dart in and move first, capturing Piper in a headlock! "Gr!" Grunting from this Piper would immediately grab at Julia's waist, gripping them tightly before winding her arm back and shooting it forward for a uppercut into her opponent's stomach!

[Noob]

The only thing Julia and Piper seemed to have in common was their flexibility. A trait that they'd both have to fight around if they wanted to win. The bluenette figured her usual holds would be about as effective as Piper's earlier stretch was against her. It wasn't a problem she was looking forwards to confront. And so for now she decided to go for a headlock, attempting to squeeze the fight right out of her foe before she went in for something much more fun.

Any plans that Julia had were quickly put on hold as she felt Piper drive their fist into her stomach. "Guughh!" She cried out, a pained expression quickly replacing her formerly happy one. Almost immediately she'd abandon her grip on Piper to instead clutch her stomach. Now doubled over she'd take a few steps back until she could each back and hold onto the ropes. It took a few moments but she was finally able to take a solid breath and replace the air that had just been knocked out of her. "Nnng...that really hurt." She'd whine, mumbling more to herself than for anyone to actually hear.
