Ace didn't move from his spot. Not even to roll over. That impact from the Electric Drop had done more than knock the air out of him, it knocked him completely loopy, seeing spots and stars in his vision that refused to go away despite how much his blinked. He could hear the throbbing, beating pulse of his heartbeat, tasted bile in his throat, and his head buzzed like it was filled with insects. Was this what a concussion felt like? He'd never had one before, wasn't sure of the difference.
His breathing came in long, gasping, wheezes, his throat feeling stuck, like the air was choked on something and he could barely get any breath in or out of his body, his legs, once folded over his head, felt heavy and limp, like noodles more than limbs, like he had no current control over them as they were folded over his body, Angela moving between them and the referee dropping down and slapping the mat for the pin, to the sighs of a relieved crowd who were certain that things for the young teen were finally over, getting the squash they thought they would get.
"2!..."
The ref girl counted, Ace blinking wearily as he wheezed again. He was done. He knew it, Dizzy knew it, Angela certainly knew it, the crowd knew it.
He was finished.
"Thr-"
He kicked out. He had no idea how. Pure instinct, one last burst of energy, maybe Sister Lucia backstage found him cute and prayed for his divine invention. Regardless, some way, some how, he bucked his hips and threw his shoulder up, kicking out of the folding pin and rolling over to his front, where he continued to lay still, lacking the strength to even get to his feet, the crowd gasping in surprise, shock, and more than a little concern as it seemed the match would continue!
