The Heir and the Heiress

[Fairy Dragon]

Hideo dropped Piper with a perfect counter to the triangle hold, thankfully it was easier than usual since Piper was smaller than most people who used the hold on him and he was still fresh enough to be at mostly full strength to stop her. Training or not, he couldn't let himself be taken out this early in his own family's training room by the new student, no matter how high Ayane was on her. Now she was on the mat and Hideo had a golden chance to show her the kind of struggles she'd have to endure if she wanted to get to the top.

He would quickly move behind Piper and grab her arms and pull her up to her feet then pull her into a Full Nelson and start to shake the blonde around. She needed to learn these kinds of techniques since the biggest problem for her future battles would be her size and strength paling compared to her opponents, in his mind it was best to use those as much as possible to counter her and force her to take whatever he did or fight back.

Piper groaned softly in pain after taking that improvised slam from Hideo, the impact still ringing out through her back even as Hideo hefted her up. 'Great, now I gotta get through this.' Piper thought to herself as she felt her arms pulled upwards in a full Nelson! "Ngh! Gah Stop it!" Piper yelled as she was swung and thrown about in Hideo's clutches. Knowing she had to put a stop to this sooner rather than later Piper would pull her legs up and hook her feet behind Hideo's legs, trying to anchor herself for a moment and stop herself from being swung.

That was just a first step however and Piper would need to do much more to get free completely. Rearing her hands backwards to clasp her hands on top of Hideo's head she would make sure to have a firm grip on his head before unhooking her feet from behind the man's legs, bracing her feet on his knees before using the purchase to push up and making use of her gymnastic training she would curl her body in and bring her legs up and over. Essentially lifting herself higher and higher while holding onto Hideo's head as an anchor so if successful she'd be completely vertical on top of the mat... Before dropping herself down behind him, slamming her knees into his back while pulling him backwards as she leaned back, trying to counter with a backstabber!

Positions like this were the only way to test Piper, the bigger and stronger opponents she would face if she went after other championships besides the Lightweight one meant that Hideo had to play up both of this advantages if he was going to help at all. He kept shaking Piper until she started to hook her leg around his own, using it to stop him from pulling her around more, so he tried to pull her up and off her feet, which she used against him by grabbing his head when he did it to lift her up and then give her the strength to lift herself over him. Before he could stop her she was rolling behind him and then dropping down by grabbing his back and forcing him to follow until she was pulling him down, dropping him back first on her knees.

"Gaagh!" Hideo screamed, bent over the knee and rolling to the side after the drop had surprised him. Piper pulled off a clever escape, and that gave her a chance, leaving Hideo to try and recover before she could do anything else.

Despite the dangerous position that Piper had been put in by Hideo she found not only a clever escape, but an exceedingly effective one as far as leveling the playing field between the two relatively even and in turn.. extremely open for Piper to strike. Grinning deviously ear to ear Piper would push herself up and move to pounce on Hideo from behind, grabbing his arms and pulling both back as quick as possible.

If successful sh ewould try and push herself against Hideo's back, and rolling forward, bringing her legs down to brace against the mat just in front of his legs, bending his spine down and utilizing not only her own weight, but Hideo's as well for a rather painful bridging wing clipper variation!

Hideo was still stunned after Piper's escape attempt, and the blonde was proving to be more like Ayane than anyone realized when she started to take advantage of that. She wasted little time grabbing his arms from behind him, holding him in such a strange way that she could then jump over his body while still holding him and bring him down while landing on her feet to bend and stretch him out.

"Ngggh.." Hideo groaned, feeling his arms get pulled back and stretched to the limit. Piper's position kept him from using his strength, and allowed her to keep him down and slowly feel the pain build up while he tried to turn and escape the submission hold.

Stunning Hidoe and getting behind him Piper was quick to capitalize and make use of her teacher's training, snapping his arms behind him and trapping him in a innovative, hard to escape submission! Smirking a bit wider as she felt him struggling Piper would give a hard tug on his arms to send a extra spike of pain through Hideo.

"You know you can end this any second now Hideo ~" Piper cooed out in a breathy whisper, bouncing her torso up and down a bit to cause some more pain. "Besides, wouldn't you rather be getting dinner with me than getting beaten by me? Choice is yours." Piper would add with a flirty smirk.

[Fairy Dragon]

The pain Piper was putting Hideo through was enough to make him consider submitting, he still had a few idea on how to escape but he had to start working on them now or he'd be calling this match off earlier than he planned. He didn't like the idea of conceding until he tried everything and would slowly pull against the hold to at least ease the pressure up a little while he would try to get his legs up and try to sit up and lean back to pull Piper out of the hold.

"You'll get used to working for meals training with my grandmother, consider this an early start." Hideo joked, relieved to stop the pain of the submission while trying to finally free his arms and pull her back, if he could do it he'd try to then hook her waist and pull her into a sleeperhold. If it worked he'd have Piper trapped and forced to work from a position where she had no advantage.

Piper smirked confidently as she pulled and tugged on Hideo's arms, confident that she could secure the win with this innovative little submission of hers. After all it was quite difficult to escape under most circumstances and if anything the thought of giving up HAD to be in Hideo's head somewhere. Unfortunately however he was as stubborn as his grandmother and refused to do so. Worse yet unlike both Piper and Ayane he had the raw strength necessary to pull his arms together, weakening her hold and allowing himself enough room to get back up.. turning the tables on Piper in the process!

"Hgk!" Piper gagged out softly, unable to respond to Hideo's words as he began choking her out with, given the height difference could very well be a match ending move! But Piper was on a mission to show she was just as determined and skilled as any Akan or Yamamoto. Grabbing and clawing at Hideo's arm in what seemed like frantic clawing she was trying to loosen his grip just a bit.

All so she could suck a breath in and push up with her legs to jump straight up and if able, she'd try and bring her feet back and behind Hideo's hips to hook her feet over them while also using the extra few inches to reach behind herself and grab at Hideo's hair before leaning forward, trying to pull him with her down to the mat with a wheel barrow which if successful she would try and pop back up into the air before coming back down with a double stomp on Hideo's ribs with a double stomp!

Hideo was pulling Piper down for a submission that his strength made a big threat for the smaller Piper. The blonde struggled and writhed in the hold while Hideo tried to pull back to make it tighter. The submission was getting close to being too much for Piper when she started to claw at his arms a little and force him to turn them to try and adjust, making it light enough that Piper could turn her head and roll back, using her legs to kick her body up and behind Hideo like she was going for a pin! He was ready to turn when Piper instead grabbed the back of his head and rolled forward again making them wheelbarrow across the ring to free herself and throw Hideo off enough that she could get back to her feet and jump on top of him.

"Agggh!" Hideo gasped screaming out when Piper stomped down on his chest and winded him. All he could do after that was turn and try to start breathing normally, his breathing more like coughing at the moment after feeling all of Piper's weight on her chest.

Piper was successful in escaping from Hideo's submission hold, rubbing her neck still with how sore it was in the wake of it but she most certainly paid Hideo back for it in kind. Plus he was clearly winded giving Piper a golden opportunity to try out something special she's been working to perfect. Getting up fully and walking over towards Hideo she use foot to turn the man over onto his back.

Giving a quick wink and even blowing a kiss down to him she would then proceed to put her foot on his stomach, right where she'd stomped him not long before and then put her full weight on his body as she walked over him towards the corner.

Once there she would grab the top ropes, lift herself landing feet first on the middle ropes, bouncing up to get on the top then leaping backwards, rotating twice through the air with a pilfered, but stylistically improved version of a rival's double moonsault finisher that she now dubbed the Sting of Saturn! Should Hideo not move from where he was she would give him a taste of it by coming down full force onto his body with the new finisher!
