[Apex Qualifier] Karina Rine vs Amy Evans

[Ghost]

Karina knew the real answer before she even mentioned her breasts. If there was something she knew attracted Amy, it was the clear view of Karina's battle hardened abs. She never considered that steely core to be a target until she met Amy, something she learned to even appreciate since she worked hard defining the features and tightening them to really show them off. She grinned wide when Amy said that part though, especially after she pushed into Amy and managed to regain the ground she had lost. Still, despite that rather eager mood she was in, there was no doubt that it was also testing the limits of her strength and the pain that had been growing underneath her reddened abs.

The woman had bruised her good with those few powerful strikes, but that didn't stop Karina from trying her old things. " Kh.. True.. You'll appreciate them more when I smother you out with them while I punish your body.. Once I make you submit to me here! " She shouted back at Amy and tried to force the woman further back and for the moment it looked like Karina's might would suffice in doing that!

Alas pain was always a main problem when it came to force your body against it and no matter the amount of adrenaline Karina had in wanting to overpower Amy, the pain was still enough to remind her that all that constant pushing was slowing working against her. It felt like she was pushing against a brick wall now that Amy was pushing back into her with a lot more strength, though slowly Karina began to lose that ground again as she tried to adjust herself to the new power Amy was pushing with, finally starting to flinch and show fatigue!

[Fairy Dragon]

The test of strength between them showed that the two were pretty close in power, Amy had been trying to bring Karina down but Karina had improved in ways that once again surprised the blonde. The two were only able to even things out between them before a deadlock set in, and the two pressed against each other trying to see what would give out first. The answer ended up being the fatigued Karina, with the two of them still feeling the punches they hit earlier, Karina started to feel her body give out due to not being used to that kind of exchange.

Amy didn't want to waste time once this moment happened and would start to press into Karina harder, pushing with basically everything she had to try and force her all the way back. She wanted the image of Karina under Amy or against the cage trapped by the Lion to be the persistent theme of their wars. Karina was tough but Amy loved beating her too much to give up on that feeling.

Power was something Karina always had at her disposal, yet her earlier trade of punishment with Amy did not reflect well when it came to this kind of contest. She had hoped Amy would be in a similar state to make this more of a test of who could endure the pain rather than pure physical strength. Alas Karina's power faltered over the pain that only grew more from all the pressure. She flinched, pushing into Amy with everything she had until finally, that fatigue paired with the pain of her bruised abs and she was starting to lose ground.

Her pushing power waned and soon Amy pushed even harder, with Karina trying to remain on her feet and force Amy to a standstill but ultimately she lost a step, then another and another until finally, she was up against the cold steel cage wall. She exhaled loudly the moment she hit it, losing the test of strength was already irritating enough, specially when it was against Amy but now she couldn't stop the blonde from trapping her against the cage wall, which caused Karina's face to redden as finally she began to breathe loudly. All that pushing power had her winded for a while now.

[Fairy Dragon]

Amy was primed and ready for the moment she could strike, she wanted to prove her point first and as the struggle between them saw Karina start to tire she knew she was close to it. She continued to push as Karina's power started to falter and kept going right up to the moment Karina's back hit the cage wall trapping her between the end of the cage and the hungry lion. Amy pushed again, she couldn't ask for a better invitation and would throw a knee up into Karina's belly.

With how red her face was Amy was going to make it even worse before she was done, trapping Karina on the cage while she slipped her hand down and started to pepper Karina's abs with punches. Wanting to completely shock the Beast and make them docile with a series of hard hitting strikes. If she started to crumble under her Amy would take the invitation to press her chest in and start smothering the beast while she was trapped on the cage, giving her no chance to breathe and recover while she had her in such a vulnerable state.

Being forced up against the cage wall was a bad thing when it came to fighting Amy. Any spot where she couldn't get away from her and not able to properly defend herself meant her abs were going to take a new beating, which was exactly what happened as the mighty woman began to sink that knee deep into her bruised abs, once again forcing the air to leave Karina's lungs and making her hunch forward, coughing the last remnants of air out before she tried to take it all in again just to supply herself in a needingly fashion.

It wasn't long before that knee strike was replaced with a fist, which wasn't really a surprise for Karina anymore knowing that Amy loved Karina's abs, specially when they were in punching range! She took punch after punch, flinching and starting to falter. Her legs buckled and she slowly started to lose her stability, which in turn angled her right at the same level as Amy's chest as it pushed against her blushing, warm face. " Mmmh! Mmh..! " She whined, already needing air but now Amy denied that as well! Every fist was more than enough to smack loudly against that bruised core, sending the sweat right off it from the mere impact of it!

[Fairy Dragon]

Amy attack was focused on breaking Karina completely, the Beast breaking down from the focus on her abs which had improved but Amy's attention to them started to wear them down. When Karina was down low enough it made smothering her much easier and forcing her to endure the lack of air even as she was being pressed down. Amy didn't stop there, grabbing Karina's arm while keeping the smother and forcing Karina's arms up near her head. Kneeing her again while grabbing her hair and trying to use the Beast's long hair against her.

Forcing Karina's hair to be used like rope, Amy would secure it around Karina's arms and secure it to the cage by threading it through the cage links to trap Karina in a way that kept her on her feet and her arms out of the way. Once she pulled it off she would pull off to give Karina room to breathe and get a good look at her while she was trapped by Amy's plot.

[Ghost]

Being driven against the cage wall and forced to endure Amy's constant barrage of fists were quickly wearing Karina down, not to mention not being able to regain the air she was grunting out into Amy's chest only made things worse! She was getting light headed, eyes becoming unfocused until finally Amy started to focus on something else, though still did not allow Karina any time to breathe thanks to that chest enveloping her face, having her weakened arms pinned above her head while a knee sunk in deep into those now more visibly bruised abs.

She felt her hair being used in a way it had been used similar when it was someone else in private, which didn't turn out well for Karina and this was definitely going to be similar, having her arms trapped with the use of her own hair, it would leave her body completely exposed! She didn't pass out thanks to Amy pulling away and allowing her to gasp for air, trying to gulp it all in! The sweat was dripping down her body and she was slowly getting her wits again, though it was obvious that she couldn't get anyway and Amy made sure to turn the cage wall in a prison thanks to the use of Karina's hair!

[Fairy Dragon]

Karina's predicament went from bad to dire as her long hair was just good enough for what Amy had in mind for it, trapping Karina in a way that made her presentable for Amy's antics. It was a cruel act to subject Karina to this so early on in the match, but it basically guaranteed Amy would take the first fall of the match. Her grin grew when she stepped in towards her gasping Beast, trapped to her whims as Amy would bring her hand to tap Karina's cheek.

"I like you Karina, but you do play around too much. Now we get to play a game, one that involves your pride. How many hits can you take before you're willing to verbally submit?" Amy said and with a wink she would go right back to working on Karina's abs. Throwing a series of punches to the body before she backed up and ran back at Karina to throw a knee into the Beasts chest! She didn't stop after that and went right back to the abs by bringing her hand to them and clawing away at her body, if Karina wanted to tease her with an improved belly she would soon have it tested to the finish.

To be bound by her own hair was not something on her list of things she aimed to happen in this match, though after fighting Amy for so long, she might have seen it coming. If she couldn't cuff Karina against the wall or a punching bag with the use of chains or handcuffs, then Karina's hair would make a suitable alternative, specially since her own struggling would just hurt her more thanks to her hair being pulled around in the process.

She flinched as the woman made sure that Karina would remember it, even tapping Karina on the cheek as if she had already tamed Karina. She played a dangerous game, but so did Karina. She knew that she had to swallow her pride in order to get free, stubborness did not work in this position where her opponent had free reign over her body.. Course she wasn't going to instantly surrender, wanting to see if she could free her arms from her bonds somehow.

Soon her attention shifted back almost instantly to her abs as they were under a new assault, one that could not be defended against as Amy began to ram into her with those powerful fists, leaving Karina breathless and panting while the woman retreated.. Only to come back and target Karina's chest! " Gaah! " She whined out as that knee smacked into those orbs, sending them into a series of wild bouncing and swaying before calming down, though soon the pain swapped back to her abs as that hand dug into those abs with a claw hold, causing Karina to tense and flinch.. Starting to considering surrendering!

[Fairy Dragon]

Karina trapped figure soon became a massive target for Amy, striking at her body and chest with focused strikes both to the chest and belly. Karina was tough and was trying to escape while taking them but it was difficult to escape your own hair when any tension you put on it hurt your scalp and Amy refused to stop attacking her. She could see the pain in her eyes and knew Karina was close to swallowing her pride, Amy just had to give her the right incentive and the claw was the best bet to follow that on.

"So do you have anything to say Karina? Or do we go until those eyes stay shut?" Amy asked her. Fingers digging deep into the bare abs of the Beast while she watched her fruitless struggle. She pressed her arms in as hard as she could wanting to feel her abs suffer from the claw and find Karina's breaking point by grinding them into dust.
