The Real Training Session

[deezcastforms]

Sitting in a corner of the ring, Tiki toweled off a lot more sweat from her body than she had been expecting to when she came through the doors today. And the water she drank had that extra kick of refreshment that only hit when you really needed it. Even the veteran's breath was still a bit heavier than normal, even if she wasn't gasping for air anymore.

Tiki was pleased, and even a bit proud when Niko so enthusiastically took to her post training assignment. As well as amused when she saw the look on her student's face when the instructor said that they weren't calling it a session yet. "Give me a little credit Niko. You've dealt me worse personally," said Tiki, deciding to have a little fun teasing the already flustered pinkette.

Tiki raised her eyebrows a little when Niko asked for lessons on submissions. Considering what had just happened, Tiki wasn't sure what to think of Niko wanting to go right back to putting Tiki in submission holds. "Well alright," she said with a chuckle. "Guess I better make sure I only show you things I can submit to."

"If you don't mind me indulging myself in a bit of payback, I can show you something really painful and humiliating, almost impossible to escape, and practically a surefire match ender if you lock it in properly..." Tiki paused before flashing a mischievous smirk before continuing. "Provided that you're at least roughly the same height or outright taller than your opponent. It's still an okay hold if you're smaller, but it really just isn't the same. Now I'm not so petty as to make you go through with this if you don't want to Niko. The look on your face is plenty."

In all honesty Tiki only wanted to be sure to give an answer to Tiki, she didn't even really think about what the woman had just gone through and how close she came to passing out. Not till after at least, when Niko immediately worried if she had said the wrong thing or maybe upset Tiki. Thankfully the fears would be assuaged as Tiki spoke and suggested a.. compromise to the situation that would involve Niko taking some pain herself, but she did sorta ask for it.

Entering a thinking pose Niko would hum before looking up at the green haired woman. "Well... It does seem fair. Just don't go full force ya know?" The pink haired girl said as she already began to roll her neck and shoulders in preparation for whatever hold Tiki was talking about. Because going off the description it wouldn't exactly be fun for her to deal with.

Tiki smiled when Niko allowed herself to be subjected to the veteran's submission hold for demonstration. "Don't worry Niko," Tiki said in response the the pinkette asking her to avoid going all out. "I happen to like you being this invested in your training, and I don't plan on ruining that by beating you up for no reason. Although I will warn you, I will have to crank the hold up a bit at the end for the final part of the demonstration. But I obviously will let up when you tap."

"Alright Niko, sit down, with your legs a little bit apart," said Tiki. Once Niko obeyed, Tiki would walk right up behind her. "This move is called the Split Toe Hold, and as I said before, it's especially effective on opponents your size or smaller. Most moves are, of course, but this move gets an especially large boost. Now I recognize that you aren't very tall, so this shouldn't become any sort of go to move for you. But I consider this move so effective at putting away foes your own height or shorter that I still think it's worth it for you to learn as a sort of trump card in those specific matchups."

"First you step both legs over your opponent's shoulders, One foot should be placed back next to their hip, and the other needs to be placed against the back of their knee," said Tiki, slowly performing the steps of the Split Toe Hold on Niko as she explained them. "Then you use your lower leg to pull their leg out and back as far as you can while still keeping a solid, balanced stance. This is the first reason that height is relevant to this hold: balance. And with balance comes far greater difficulty to escape. Your legs pin their arms back in an awkward position, which prevents them from pushing or pulling your leg forward to take it out. But if you aren't tall enough, their shoulder and upper arm will be close enough to the back of your thigh that an opponent could push up into your leg to destabilize you."

"As it is now, you still probably could use that exact tactic to escape. So I'm going to perform the next part of the hold to better illustrate the point," Tiki continued. "You want to do the last part and this part in quick succession. Even better if you can partially overlap, or even do them both at the exact same time if you can get proficient enough with the maneuver. You lean down over your opponent's head, reach down, grab their leg, and pull it as far back as you can. But you should at least be getting their leg straight up. Then grip the ankle and twist with both hands once you've pulled it in reach. Which not only creates an Ankle Lock effect, but puts additional strain on the entire rest of the leg as well since you're pulling it even further when it's already stretched to the point of significant pain."

Split Toe Hold

Tiki would then let Niko's partially leg back down. "I'll let up a bit so you aren't in too much pain to listen," said the teacher. "As you can probably tell, your body is now firmly enough under my control that the vertical separation between your shoulders and my thighs is too great for you to push up into them. You should be able to get enough separation for this as long as you are at least the same height as your opponent. And you can usually get away with being a couple inches shorter and do this as long as your opponent's legs aren't particularly short compared to the rest of their body."

"And now for the second reason as to why height is so relevant to this hold. This is the part that's going to really hurt, so be ready," said Tiki."I'm going to explain in full before I do anything so that you don't have to try to listen through the hold. Firstly, you can't just be the same height as your opponent for this to work. You have to be tall enough such that while you are standing and your opponent is sitting, the top of their head does not come up to the bottom of your own crotch. Which if you were to look up, you would see is the case here. Everybody's body is different, so there's no exact number, but I wouldn't recommend trying this unless you are 3 or 4 inches taller than your opponent. Which I do understand isn't going to be a lot of people for you. But if you do get that kind of matchup, what you do is bring your hips forward, while keeping your legs back. You can bring them forward a little if you need to, but they're still needed to keep the opponent's arms pinned back. Next, once you've brought your hips enough forward, you drop your crotch down on top of your opponent's head, and just let the weight off your body come down onto them. It will exert an immense pressure on the neck and spine as their body is crushed between your own body ant the floor."

With Tiki's explanation on how to perform the hold complete, the teacher gave one last warning to her student, "I'm going to apply the hold in its entirety now. It will be very painful. You're free to tap out right away once I've locked in the hold as demonstration, or you can try to last as long as you can, or even try escaping. It's completely your choice. Just know that I will let you go when you ask." On those words, Tiki made her move. Pulling and twisting Niko's leg up all the way, and forcing the Lightweight's body to bear the brunt of Tiki's bodyweight.

Tiki would first and foremost assure Niko that she'd take things somewhat easy on her in this upcoming hold. Something that was honestly, genuinely appreciated by the pink haired girl as she nodded. "Right ok, I got this." Niko said before shifting her body to be in a position necessary for the hold to start. As she did so Niko would wait patiently as Tiki took her place behind the pink haired girl and placed her legs on either side of her head. Nodding in conjunction with what the woman said Niko would nod softly as Tiki explained the hold, trying to come up with ways she could use the hold that maybe didn't rely on height so much, after all Niko could count on her hand how many times she had been in a match with someone shorter than her.

However what Niko made sure to pay special attention too was what Tiki said about escaping the hold. After all with Niko's height this move would be a obvious one for people to use against her that were versed in it. "Gotcha." Niko saidt to show she was following along while Tiki continued to demonstrate, a bit of pain entering her voice as the woman grabbed her leg and pulled up gently, not enough to hurt, but enough to definitely make her feel just how effective this hold would be if she could manage to legitimately manage to get an opponent in it.

Nodding to Tiki as she warned the pink haired girl about the holds pain increasing soon Niko would brace herself, waiting for the inevitable while listening and doing her best to take in the information from the woman, not speaking in fear of doing so would break her focus from preparing for the hold. Sure enough just as Tiki had said the pain of the hold ramped up massively, the older woman's weight bearing down on Niko's shoulders while her leg was pulled to its limit! "Ngh! Aghhh!" Niko yelled out in pain, trying to last in the hold, but very quickly tapping out on Tiki's leg to signal to the woman to let go.

[deezcastforms]

Tiki wondered how well Niko understood what she was about to be in for. The busty pinkette had certainly been on the receiving end of enough of her teacher's full powered attacks to know what Tiki was capable of. And Niko certainly seemed to be bracing herself for what was to come with a bit of nervousness. Once Tiki reached the end of her explanation, it was time to apply the hold and see how Niko responded.

When Niko gave in almost immediately, Tiki wasn't surprised, nor was she let down. The Split Toe Hold was sheer agony when performed at it's full capacity. Niko had exceeded all expectations and showed great potential, but this was just another level beyond right now. The teacher did feel a little extra sorry for her student however, as Niko had resisted tapping long enough for it to be clear that she Had actually made an attempt to last in the hold, yet still was forced to tap very quickly.

Of course, Tiki released Niko immediate upon her tapping. Dropping Niko's leg and pulling her own out from the crook of the Lightweight's knee before being able to get off of Niko entirely. "Are you alright Niko? Do you need a minute?" Tiki asked of her student. She almost tried to comfort Niko by telling her that she'd get to put the greenette in that same hold, but stopped herself when she remembered that it wouldn't really be the same.

However, once Niko would start setting up the hold on Tiki, the instructor would notice something. Her student's enviable bust was practically casting a shadow of Tiki's face. When the veteran looked up, she realized her face was only a couple inches short of Niko's bare underboob. "Hold on Niko," said Tiki with slight hesitation in her voice. "I don't think I'm going to like this, but I think I might have a way to make this extra effective against taller opponents. At least significantly taller opponents like I am to you here."

"Now, I've just realized this idea myself, so bear with me a bit as I try to figure this out," said Tiki. "My idea is for you to try leaning forward so your chest goes past face head, then use your breasts to pull me back by my face, and then put your weight down on me for a breast smother that also bends my neck back and down with the weight of your chest. It won't be as much sheer weight as my version, but it may be cancelled out by the weight being focused on just the neck rather than the entire spinal cord. In fact, I think this modification will help prevent my escape too. Since I'll want to push up or forward, but you're pulling me down and back."

"Oh, wait, no," Tiki would then interject, having realized a possible flaw. "Your body would probably get in the way of your far side arm reaching my ankle. Tiki hummed and mumbled in thought for a bit before coming up with something. "Try this instead," she eventually said. "Lock the Split Toe Hold in as you would normally, with no variations, but make sure you really pull my leg back as far as you possibly can so I can't get any strength to it before you move onto the next part. Next, let your far side arm go so that only the arm closest to my leg is holding it, and see if you can keep your hold on it. Then use your free arm to pull my head back, which will also make getting the smother easier, and then once you have your chest down, you'll have a free arm to work with."

"If you can lock this in, I will try to escape in earnest," said Tiki. "This is something new even for me, so I need to test its practicality. I think the most difficult part for you will be the strain on the shoulder and arm you're going to be holding my ankle with," forewarned Tiki. "I expect its strength and flexibility to be put to the test. Once the hold is locked in, I recommend putting the lion's share of your focus on that so you don't lose it."

Getting released from the step toe hold by TIki not too long after being put in it Niko would sigh in relief as she nearly flopped backwards on the mat, but caught herself with a placed hand behind her. "Phew... wow... ok I'm ok." Niko said assuredly as the pain that had spiked through her body gradually began to recede and dampen now that she wasn't in the submission anymore.

Luckily Tiki wasn't lording it over her or disappointed with the time, or lack thereof that she lasted in the hold. In fact the green haired woman even seemed to feel kinda bad for what Niko had been through in the hold and offered to let Niko do it back. "Oh well I can try." Niko said not too sure given that she wasn't exactly taller than Tiki, but it was worth the attempt if nothing else. Stepping over the woman's shoulders and leaning down to grab the woman's leg Niko would stop as Tiki spoke and blink.

"Uh sure yeah I can do that." Niko said, shifting what she was doing to do exactly as Tiki said, shifting and grabbing at Tiki's body, biting her lip softly as she started to focus entirely on her grip and doing as Tiki instructed. It was a bit complicated for her, but she would do her best to follow through with what the woman said. "Got it." Niko said at Tiki's final warning that once she had the hold in full she'd need to put all her focus into it and that there'd likely be a bit of strain on her arms.

Nodding at this Niko would do as Tiki instructed, going silent as she went to pull Tiki's leg back and fully secure the hold! As Tiki said there was a bit of strain with how much she was forced to extend her arms to keep the hold in place, but she'd bear with it to keep Tiki locked down as best she could!

[deezcastforms]

Tiki didn't know why she was doing this. In reality she did; she wanted to help Niko's growth as much as she possibly could. But the teacher didn't understand why she was doing this right now. Actively instructing her student on how to put her into the same kind of smother submission combo that the veteran had just suffered threw a few minutes ago. Maybe Niko had just grown on Tiki enough in their short time as allies that she felt her new student was worth it.

Niko managed to get the regular version of the Split Toe Hold locked in well enough. It certainly had Tiki hurting, but she knew that it wasn't close to what she put the busty pinkette through. Here we go, Tiki thought as Niko released one hand from her raised ankle and grabbed her head and pulling it back before Niko leaned forward and dropped her bare cleavage straight down onto the veteran's face.

"Mmpfh!" Tiki groan as Niko's smother had it's intended secondary effect of bending back the greenette's neck. It was the actual smothering part of the smother that seemed to come up short. While the limit to how far back Tiki's head could go before her shoulders got in the way acted somewhat as a floor, it wasn't enough. By no means was Tiki breathing easy, nor could she move her head out from Niko's cleavage, but she also recognized that a smother performed by a woman with breasts as big as Niko's were had no business being anything short of utterly oppressive on its victim's air supply.

Tiki thought that Niko could try to use her free hand to push the instructor's head deeper into the smother, but she didn't have quite enough verbal freedom to actually articulate that idea to her student. So Tiki just had to see if Niko thought of it herself. And when she did do just that, despite now being in a trap worthy of the bust of Niko Tomiji, Tiki smiled with pride.

Tiki had said that she would earnestly try to escape, so she started fighting. Pushing and squirming against Niko's body wherever she could try to. But the veteran had already recognized that she was trapped. The Breast Smother modification to the Split Toe Hold brought no glaring weaknesses, and even help to cut off the paths to escape that one could try when in the normal version of the hold. The only doubt was whether Niko's arm would hold. Tiki could feel that the grip was a bit tenuous, but that was exactly why Tiki's leg was pulled back and twisted as far as it was. She just couldn't muster the power up through her leg to take advantage. Trying to force more power into her leg to escape only made it hurt more for Tiki. So, the veteran raised her hand and tapped three times on Niko's hip, submitting with nothing but pride in her heart.

[Bare]

Niko wasn't honestly sure if she had this hold in correctly. Was she pulling back far enough? Was her chest lowered enough? Was her grip secure enough? All these questions were plaguing Niko's mind as she executed the hold as closely to Tiki's instructions as possible, but there were definitely a lot of what ifs at play and she wasn't sure if she could do it, but she'd try!

Luckily as she locked the hold in things seemed relatively secure, granted Tiki wasn't trying in earnest to escape yet for some reason, but she at least didn't seem to want her to stop early which meant things must have been fine for right now. Yet despite that, something felt... off to Niko. Looking right beneath her Niko had to admit the feeling of Tiki's face in her breasts wasn't... right. The woman's face wasn't as deep as it could be which could be a problem.

Luckily though Niko still had a extra arm free and she could use to balance things out! Placing her hand on the back of Tiki's head and pushing the woman's head in deeper Niko would nod to herself, this feeling better than before. 'Guess there's one thing that came in handy from those past matches against her.' Niko thought to herself with a soft chuckle to herself.

Still this seemed to prompt Tiki into finally giving her all into escaping! "Ngh! Nghhh!" Grunting in effort as she felt the woman struggle under her Niko would do her best to stay on top, refusing to be thrown off easily, especially after she tapped so quickly before! Besides, if she was being honest... this felt kinda good. Tiki being under her power like this, struggling and fighting to escape, it wasn't as twisted as when the two were at eachothers throats but... Niko did sorta enjoy the dominant position. Eventually however the struggles would cease and Niko would feel a quick tap out on her hip. 'Wait really?' Niko thought to herself in surprise, undoing the hold a second later to let Tiki breathe easy once again, kneeling close behind the woman to make sure she was ok, but otherwise still too stunned at the woman's submission to really process or say much.

[deezcastforms]

The reason Tiki hadn't immediately started trying to escape was because she wanted to make sure that Niko could actually lock in the hold. Though the greenette didn't think that she could have escaped had she started trying immediately. The lackluster breast smother was the one temporary hole in the hold, but it didn't actually provide a route to escape. It just didn't restrict Tiki's airflow as much as it could've. Niko securing a stronger smother was a nail in the coffin more than anything else.

When Tiki eventually tapped out, Niko dropped down to check on her teacher, but Tiki could tell how stunned her student was that she had succeeded. "There's a reason the Split Toe Hold is so powerful," Tiki began to explain. "Even still, the fact that you made that work was impressive. You even realized you needed to adjust the smother on the fly without me being able to tell you. Good thinking, Niko."

Tiki then started to chuckle as a bit of a realization occurred to her. "You know Niko, you seem to have some kind of way with smother submission holds," said Tiki. "Between this hold and the last one, maybe you should make them your specialty. Win by forcing people to either submit in pain from your holds or in suffocation from your smothers. Obviously you should win by the most reliable method available, but it might be a nice option to try focusing on," said the teacher.

"On that train of thought then, let me show you some more basic types of those holds," said Tiki. "I know you know how to perform a Grapevine Breast Smother, the most basic of these holds, so I don't need to show you that. But how about... Lie down on your back Niko, and I'll show you a Facesit Armbar."

"Of course, you start by sitting on your opponent's face, but I'll just sit next to your head so you can actually listen to me explain the trick part," Tiki said as she settled her butt down on the floor next to Niko's head. "Now what you do is you slide one leg under their elbow, and your other foot over their wrist, and pull the arm up towards you a bit. The foot of the leg underneath the elbow should be over the knee of your other leg. It may sound counterintuitive, but your legs should look like they have been set up for a Figure Four Leglock. Once you have it set up, push up on the elbow and push down on the wrist to complete the Armbar."

"Then there's one more thing you can do to really destroy your opponent. You can but them in a Double Armbar," Tiki said. "But do know that if you do this to an opponent, you'll probably won't be waiting for a submission, but for your victim to pass out in agony. But what you do is you lean back towards their other arm, and it's the same concept as before but done with your arms. One under the elbow, one over the wrist, grab your wrists to secure the hold, then you start pushing. Up on the elbow, down on the wrist. The same as any Armbar." As it had always been before, once Tiki was done demonstrating, it would be Niko's turn to practice. "Before I forget," Tiki would quickly say. "If you do the Double Armbar, then I'll use my foot to tap out. Please look out for it."

[Bare]

After making sure Tiki was ok following the split toe submission Niko would nod in relief before Tiki began talking, or rather praising her once again. Especially for her tightening up the smother hold mid way through the submission. Blushing bashfully Niko would nod at the praise with a smile. "D'aww.. thanks it's just easier for me to pick up on I guess." Niko admitted before looking up with a renewed interest as Tiki mentioned using smother based submissions as a specialty for herself.

"That's... Not a bad idea." Niko would admit, not at all against the thought, in fact now that she thought about it, smothers had always kinda been a go to for her due to her assets, so in a way this was just like a natural progression of that. Something that really sounded good to her the more she thought about it, and TIki seeming interested in pressing it decided to teach her a hold that would work in such circumstances! "Gotcha!" Niko said enthusiastically as she laid back and prepared for Tikki to start demonstrating this new hold.

Looking to the side at where Tiki's but landed next to her head Niko would nod along, listening intently to Tiki's words as the woman began slide her leg under her arm while reaching out to grab her wrist. Nodding Niko could get how this worked. It wasn't as complicated as the last hold and with the addition of the arms being in much closer proximity to her while facesitting someone, it would be much easier to hold onto.

Even better though was what Tiki said about doing a double arm bar. "Oooh." Niko said with vested interest, the name of that sounding similar to other, more brutal holds Niko had seen used by other women in the company. Soon though it would be Tiki lying on her back, waiting for Niko as the pink haired girl would nod as she got up in order to perform the hold herself. "Right." Niko said first and foremost to what Tiki had said about tapping wit her foot given the circumstances of the coming hold.

'Aright start with the easy part.' Niko thought to herself as she took a seat on Tiki's face firmly, getting slight goosebumps from the, at this point, almost familiar feeling of TIki's face under her rear. Not wanting to get distracted however Niko decided to get right to work, sliding her leg under Tiki's arm while grabbing her wrist as and connecting her legs in the figure four shape before pushing up on the elbow and down on the wrist. Giving it a second to make sure she had it Niko would then lean over, capturing Tiki's other arm and manipulating it between her own till she had it caught as well, and from here she'd just wait for Tiki to either try and break free or tap out with her foot!
