Welcome to LAW! Allie Lee vs. Kodama Yuki [D]

[CaptainL]

With Kodama's head serving as a useful handhold, Allie was able to circle behind her opponent - and with that, she could bring her arm in lower, locking it around the brunette's throat as she pulled backward to drag the girl into a sleeperhold! A satisfied smirk came to her face as she brought her in against her body, her breasts massaging up against Kodama's back from how tightly she pulled her close. Kodama tried to struggle, throwing herself back and forth as she rocked and bucked to try and loosen her opponent's hold, but so far, Allison held firm. However, she could go a step further. She wasn't worried about her hold being compromised - but if Kodama thought she could get away with fighting back, Allie needed to give her a reminder to bring her back into line!

"Oh no, you don't!" Just to make matters worse for the newcomer, Allie would throw her legs around Kodama's waist, giving it a firm squeeze to try and drain the air from her lungs as she compounded her hold with a bodyscissor!

[deezcastforms]

Kodama really tried to fight back against Allie's Sleeper Hold, but she just wasn't strong or skilled enough to escape. The blonde's body was enough to keep the brunette trapped against the mat, and Kodama found herself running out of options as quickly as she was running out of air. Not that she truly was without a means to escape, but any that would work were beyond her knowledge.

Allie deciding to wrap her legs around Kodama's waist and squeezing only made things a million times worse. The rookie was wheezing now as she tried to somehow intake air, her tongue now completely out of her mouth as her saliva began to coat the mat below her. Kodama would be tapping out right about now, if she had remembered that was a thing she could do. But instead, she'd either get knocked out here, or Allie would let her go on her own and extend the match.

[CaptainL]

The crowd was cheering louder than ever now. Allie had her arm firmly in place around Kodama's throat, wringing the breath from her lungs, and she was steadily growing stiff and limp in her arms - in just a moment, she thought, she'd surely be out like a light. And that was before Allison threw her legs around her opponent's waist, squeezing it tight to compress her lungs from either end! As the strength steadily drained away from Kodama, and she began to crumple against the mat, the grin on Allie's face would only grow wider. Was she actually about to do it!? She had never been quite this close to actually winning a match! Now, it seemed, at long last, she was about to get that victory she'd waited for for too long!

But then...Allison paused, bringing a finger to her chin in thought. This didn't feel quite as satisfying as she had expected it to. After all, the match had just begun, and Kodama had barely put up a fight. Sure, she could take that as an indication that she was just that good...but after all the punishments she had faced at Veyle's hands, a win this easy didn't seem like it would be enough to make up for it. But if things were this easy so far, that meant the Floridian wouldn't have anything to fear if she let Kodama loose. She could just as easily keep this momentum going, and Kodama wouldn't be able to stop her!

Letting go of Kodama just before she could pass out, Allie rolled over to the side, getting to her feet and taking a bow. "All right, everybody! Seems like Kodama's had a bit much...but I think we can go further than that! I say, she deserves an encore for all her hard work, so I'm gonna give her another chance to beat me! What do ya say?" Allie pumped a fist in the air - and, her energy as infectious as it had always been, the crowd echoed that with a loud cheer. Allie grinned wider - this was perfect! She'd get to dominate Kodama all over again - and the crowd would get their money's worth!

[deezcastforms]

Kodama felt herself fading, she knew she was beat. But suddenly, air finally reentered her throat, travelling down through to her lungs, and then back out as breath was supposed to be. "Wha?" she muttered. "Did I lose?" Kodama was still regaining her wits as her re-oxygenated mind started to come back. So her question was too unclear and quiet to be heard.

But Allie could be heard very clearly, and by the sound of what she was saying, the match wasn't over yet. At least that's how it sounded to Kodama. The rookie got up, legs shaking and wobbling, but she kept herself from falling. Pretty sure she was okay to keep fighting without getting in trouble, Kodama would lunge forward, trying to wrap around Allie's hips and drag her to the mat. If it worked, Kodama would get to her knees, straddling the streamer's stomach, but freeze with a moment of uncertainty. Eventually, Kodama would settle on clasping her fists above her head before trying to slam them down onto Allie's chest for an Axe Handle Strike.

[CaptainL]

Allie could have easily ended things there. Kodama's strength was already starting to fail her, and she wasn't going to budge if she stayed a moment longer to sink in the smother. But then, a victory this early just felt too easy. The match had barely begun, after all, and after all the punishment Allie had endured at Veyle's hands, she wasn't going to feel like she had been paid back her due. The feeling of power this had given her was exciting and emboldening - and she wanted more. This match wasn't going to be over just yet! And if she could spin this as her giving Kodama another chance out of the kindness of her heart, so be it!

Allie saw that Kodama was teetering back and forth - it seemed like a stiff breeze would be enough to push her over. But even still, she was ready, sinking into a stance and raising her hands. She tried to ready a guard, but before she was prepared for it, Kodama swept low, grabbing her around the waist and throwing her to her back. Allie landed with a thump against the mat, her hips rising into the air from the impact. The landing had driven the air out of her lungs, causing her to cough and gasp, and for a moment, Allie was dazed - too dazed to ready a defense. But when she did collect herself, she saw Kodama kneeling above her and raising her fists, prepared to bring them down on her like a hammer!

That wouldn't do at all! Just as Kodama began to throw her fists down onto her, Allie would reach up with both hands, trying to catch them in mid-descent. If she could block the path of Kodama's strike, she could hopefully hold her arm steady, and then roll her weight over to the side, trying to throw her onto her side with her. Then, if that worked, she would pull at her wrist, trying to put pressure on the joint with a wristlock.

[deezcastforms]

Kodama really hadn't lost to Allie yet, the fight was still going on. The rookie wasn't exactly sure how, but that was not something she was concerned about at the moment. Kodama was more concerned about pressing her attack, because she had been able to take the American down to the mat so hard that it took her breath away. This was Kodama's chance.

But it turned out that Kodama's indecisiveness and uncertainty were her undoing, as her follow-up attack came too slowly. First, Allie caught the Ake Handle Strike meant for her cleavage. Next, the blonde was able to shift and roll hard enough that the brunette was thrown off. Then worst of all, Allie reversed the position into a submission hold on Kodama's wrist. Forcing her to moan in pain and helplessness, as her best idea to escape was just trying to tug her arm free.

[CaptainL]

Without any trouble, Allie had managed to intercept a blow that was coming straight for her, using the leverage on Kodama's arm to roll her over to the side and lock in a tight grip on her wrist. The brunette was hardly even fighting back! As she wrenched her arm back and forth and around, Allison could feel a grin beginning to spread its way across her face. All things considered, that was a surprisingly skillful move on her part, and the world was eager to see her do it. That, she realized, meant they believed in her - and that meant she had the attention of the fans, and that her star was only rising even higher! Maybe, she thought, becoming a full-time wrestler wasn't going to be so hard after all. She already seemed to have a decent foundation underneath her! And if she was going to get this much hype around her, she might as well reach for it!

Of course, a large part of that success came from how she was up against someone just as clueless as she was. Allie's wristlock wasn't as tight or as efficient as a trained wrestler's would have been, and with a little more effort, Kodama was able to pull it free. The Floridian huffed, but as she began to sit back up, she narrowed her eyes on her foe. If she wasn't going to stay down, she'd just have to try harder!

"Oh, I'm not finished with you yet!" Allie taunted, planting her hands on her hips as she glared at Kodama. "Take this!" Looking to apply some new moves - and encouraged by the cheers she had been getting for them thus far - she took off running at Kodama, grabbing for her head and kicking off the ground as she came near to try and slam her head into her shoulder for a stunner! At least, as best a job she could do with a stunner!

[deezcastforms]

Kodama moaned and struggled in Allie's Wristlock until she finally managed to muster enough strength to pull her arm free. She got up, shaking and holding her wrist, and was then immediately put back on the defensive as the streamer came charging at her. "Aah!" Kodama cried as she shut her eyes, turned her head, and shoved her arms out in front of her to try to stop Allie's attack.

Somehow, Kodama's desperate attempt to defend herself worked, as she shoved Allie's shoulders and stopped her forward momentum. "Oh? Ah!" Kodama chirped when she realized her defensive "tactic" actually did the job. The rookie would try to counter back with a hook to Allie's jaw, a belly punch, and then an uppercut to the American's chin.

[CaptainL]

Allison had only had Kodama in her grasp for a short while before the brunette managed to yank herself free of her clutches, but it would be enough. She was pretty sure she had still been in position long enough to inflict some damage, and that damage would be enough to set Kodama back. She was just as eager as ever when she sprung back to her feet, a grin on her face - if she had scored one blow against her opponent, the next was soon to follow. And, as she took off in a charge toward Kodama, she was aiming to keep that momentum up!

However, with the streamer in motion, if Kodama wanted to counter her charge, all she really needed to do was to hold her hands out - and Allie came crashing into them! "W-WHOAH..!" she yelped, skidding backward a couple of steps as Kodama shoved her away. It seemed the newcomer still had some fight left in her, more than Allie was prepared for! She needed a moment to catch her breath after that. But that was a moment Kodama wasn't giving her - as she threw a punch straight into Allison's jaw!

"GUH-!!" Letting out a cough, Allie's head snapped to the side as she sputtered and spat out a few gasps. By that point, though, Kodama was already going after her with her next move - a blow to her gut that caused Allison to bend over with a wheeze, driving the air out of her lungs. There her teeth tightened in a grimace from the pain that rippled through her body. Her knees began to knock together as she teetered in place, her balance threatening to give way. But Allie knew that Kodama was picking up some momentum of her own, and she couldn't let her run with it much longer. After all, this should've been her moment to show off what she could do, and she couldn't let Kodama take that away from her! Looking up with a glare, Allie went to bring up her hands to grab Kodama's arm by the wrist as it came at her again; if that worked, she would swing her weight to the side to try and upend her with an arm drag!

[deezcastforms]

Kodama's defense worked, and now her offense looked like it was going well too. Punching was easier than grappling, or at least it was easier to get the hang of because it was a lot less complicated, so the inexperienced fighter felt a fair bit more comfortable throwing hands from a standing position. She snapped Allie's head to the side with a hook, and then she doubled the streamer over with a gut shot.

Next came the uppercut. Kodama would send Allie flying in the air and flat on her back like an anime. But when she threw the punch, the American caught her by the wrist, and then yanked her down to the floor. "Uuuugh," Kodama moaned. "And I was going good, too." Now that she was the one on the ground instead of Allie, Kodama figured that she was probably the one who was gonna get smothered now.
