Christina had been leaning back into the arm stretch when the shift came suddenly.
Alizeh twisted beneath her, forcing Christina’s planted boot to slide off her shoulder. The brief loss of balance was all the opening the Emerald Storm needed. Her legs snapped up, hooking Christina’s leg and yanking hard—
The Fighting Filipina crashed down to the mat.
Before Christina could react, Alizeh’s hips turned sharply and her legs cinched tight around Christina’s trapped limb. Her grip clamped onto the foot and twisted.
“Ahh—!”
Christina’s body jolted as the kneebar and ankle lock combination wrenched her leg in two directions at once. Her knee was forced painfully straight while her ankle twisted outward, sending a sharp bolt of pain shooting up through her calf and into her thigh.
She clenched her teeth hard, one hand instinctively grabbing at Alizeh’s shin as she tried to relieve the pressure.
“Damn it—!”
The torque increased as Alizeh pulled back.
Christina’s back arched off the canvas for a moment, a strained groan escaping her as the pressure threatened to hyperextend her knee. She kicked with her free leg, twisting her hips, trying to shift the angle.
The hold was tight. Painfully tight.
But Christina refused to stay trapped.
Using her core, she rolled her body toward the pressure instead of away from it, turning her hips sharply and prying her leg free just enough to slip her foot loose from Alizeh’s grip. The moment the ankle came free, she pulled the leg back quickly and rolled away.
Christina pushed herself up onto her hands and one knee, breathing heavier now.
But when she tried to stand—
Her leg buckled slightly.
The damage from the hold lingered, a sharp sting running through her knee as she forced herself upright. She shook the leg once, trying to walk it off, but the momentary weakness slowed her just enough—
Leaving an opening for Alizeh to capitalize!
