Cecilia Lombard vs. Great Luvia

[CaptainL]

Cecilia was down, Luvia had the pin in place, and the clock was ticking. Everyone looked on in rapt anticipation, sure that the end of the match was upon them - and that Cecilia would at last face a long-overdue comeuppance for her dirty tricks. She seemed out of it enough as it was, laid flat underneath her opponent; her chest rose and fell with labored pants, and her eyes were glazed over. It seemed as though Cecilia wouldn't have enough strength left in her to break out of Luvia's clutches - and, as the count grew closer and closer to three, it was looking like the Finnish woman had this in the bag.

But just like that, at the last minute, Cecilia struck. She might not have had the strength to kick out of the pin properly - but she wasn't quite done with those dirty tricks of hers. She was perfectly willing to put them to good use now, as she grabbed onto Luvia's leotard to wedge it upward into her body - and against the pain and shock, the blonde had no choice but to release the pin!

As Cecilia sat back up, a few of the fans booed her for her tricks, while others couldn't help but send cheers and wolf-whistles at the sight of more of Luvia's body being exposed. The American climbed to her feet, shaking out her arm as she panted for breath, and the ref girl stepped closer to issue a warning. But Cecilia didn't give it the slightest hint of concern; her face remained as steady and stoic as ever as she shoved at the referee's shoulders to push her aside. Then, she turned back to where Luvia was still wincing from the pain - and she knew just how she was going to follow up on her advantage.

She leaned closer, throwing her arms around Luvia's waist to lift her off her feet and into the air. Then, Cecilia would drop her down onto her raised knee, going for an atomic drop! While the move was technically legal, as it targeted the tailbone rather than the groin, Cecilia knew that it was still close enough to the area for her purposes, and hopefully, the pain wracking her foe's body hadn't quite gone away just yet!

[Devastated]

The humiliating wedgie had certainly done its job in breaking Luvia's concentration and hold on Cecilia.She was forced to drop onto her side and tend to her private parts as she quickly tried to pull it free from any sensitive areas. She was able to get her outfit unstuck and was able to soothe her nether region. Though as she was busy doing that, Cecilia had moved in right behind her, unbeknownst to Luvia.

The blonde pushed up to her feet and the second she did those arms of Cecilia snapped around her waist. Luvia's eyes grew wide as she felt herself being pulled up off of her feet, half expecting a German Suplex she braced....but that wasn't what Cecilia had in store for her. Instead she was brought down, tailbone first onto that knee of Cecilia's! Hit with an atomic drop, the blonde gasped out, she practically jumped off of Cecilia's knee and began to stumble forward on her tippy toes. Her hands reach back to her rear...trying to soothe the pain. Leaving herself quite vulnerable at the moment.

[CaptainL]

As much as the sight of Luvia's backside being all but exposed as the back of her leotard disappeared between her cheeks garnered a fair few wolf-whistles from the crowd, humiliating the blonde had never been Cecilia's intentions. No, she was only trying to go after a weak spot in order to get herself out of a tricky situation. And as far as she could tell, it had worked wonderfully! It wasn't the most graceful or honorable of manuevers, but Cecilia had never been the type to care about that. Her only motto was to win at all costs. And if it took fighting dirty in order to do that, so be it.

Sure enough, Luvia had been left staggered by the sensation of the material riding up into the crevices of her body, and she needed some time to correct how her outfit had ridden up. That gave Cecilia those precious few moments to strike. Luvia could barely see it coming as she was lifted off her feet and dropped down onto her opponent's knee - and it couldn't have done her any favors when the brunette had targeted her groin just a moment before! Sure enough, she staggered forward off the impact, practically losing her balance then and there. Cecilia chuckled to herself, placing her hands on her hips to survey her handiwork. But she knew she was far from finished. After all, Luvia hadn't even gone down yet - she needed to give her that extra push!

Cecilia stepped up behind Luvia, swinging her knee forward in an attempt to strike her right in the spine - hopefully with enough force to unseat her from her balance. But she wouldn't be allowed to fall. Should her blow land, Cecilia would be ready - she would catch her head under the crook of one arm and one of Luvia's arms with her other, tightening her grip on her throat as she attemped to pull her backward. Not only would this put pressure on Luvia's skull, it would also stretch her back over Cecilia's still-raised knee, twisting her spine with a dragon sleeper!

[Devastated]

On unsteady feet following that atomic drop, the blonde had to find some way to recover but the sudden dirty actions of Cecilia had left her quite the vulnerable prey for the raven haired girl. There was no mercy either, no time for Luviagelita to even find proper footing as she stumbled forward after that Atomic Drop. Cecilia instead stepped in and drove that knee of hers right into the back of the Finnish Ojou!

Luviagelita cried out in pain from the impact and was forced to arch her back and start to drop down onto her knees...but as she was in the process of falling, her head was grabbed and pulled back in under Cecilia's armpit! Her feet were forced to tippy toe as she was leaned backwards and brought down into that dragon sleeper hold! Her hurting back stretched over Cecilia's knee as that arm of her foe was wrapped tightly around her neck, the arms of the blonde began to flail about. She cried out in pain and began to twist from left to right, practically writhing on top of Cecilia's knee.

[CaptainL]

Cecilia hadn't even allowed Luvia to get her bearings for a moment. Just a second later, she had swept her arm around her head, pulling her right back into her clutches with a dragon sleeper! A smirk came to her face as she looked down to see the helpless blonde writhing in her clutches, trying to break free but never making any headway. After all the scorn she had received from her foe, the opportunity to take her down a peg couldn't come soon enough. But now, at last, Luvia was powerless to do anything in her defense. Cecilia had outwrestled her, and she had her exactly where she wanted her - something, she was sure, that could only weigh on her ego.

The crowd booed her for her cruel treatment of the blonde, but Cecilia couldn't care less - she flippantly tossed her hair from side to side, as though shrugging off any ire thrown her way. The sight of Luvia desperately struggling to get free was well worth it - the only thing better would be if she could bring her to swallow that obnoxious pride of hers and tap out. But Luvia was proving frustratingly stubborn. Even when Cecilia had her locked down, she refused to give in, and she was fighting against the hold with everything she had in her! Cecilia hissed through her teeth, glaring down at her. That was fine. If that was the way Luvia wanted to handle things...she'd just take things harder!

Clenching even tighter around Luvia's throat with her forearm, Cecilia would attempt to lift up with her hips and shoulders, attempting to raise Luvia higher into the air. If she could, she would just as soon sink back down to slam her back against her raised knee! And if Luvia didn't stop, Cecilia would only keep up with the punishment!

[Devastated]

Gagging a bit in the hold, Luvia was trying desperately to get air into her lungs. She could feel her throat being almost clenched shut from Cecilia's painful hold! She shifted lightly from left to right, trying desperately to find a position that was easier to deal with than the one she was in now. She grit her teeth, as she was being tortured! Truly tortured! Her body was being put through a whole host of pain and she had little she could do about it!

Her body shivered, her eyes watered a little by the corners. She felt how Cecilia began to rise a little and then drove her right back down! Popping her down onto that knee back first yet again and another gasp of pain shot out of Luvia's mouth! "Gruah!" She cried out, her body rocking a bit from the impact as she scrambled around with her hands, as if desperately trying to reach for something, like the ropes or well..anything. She wasn't even sure what she was reaching for, the ropes were too far away.

She began to contemplate tapping out...she didn't know how much more of this that she could take...but the Finnish Ojou had one more thing she could try. She would try and bring her arms upwards, looking to grab at the back of Cecilia's head and in a desperate act try and shoot kick her right leg up and fold up her own body. Aiming to smack her knee into Cecilia's face in the hope of breaking out of this hold!

[CaptainL]

Luvia's endurance was frustrating - Cecilia could admit to that. She'd tried as hard as she could to try and break the blonde's will. She knew that for such a proud woman, to bring her to submit to Cecilia, admitting she never stood a chance at besting her, would be an even more crushing defeat than merely overpowering her would be. Luvia could brush a pin or a knockout off as a fluke. But if she submitted? That would send a message that Cecilia was her better. There was no way she could make excuses. It would shatter her spirit just as much as her body, and teach her a lesson she wouldn't soon forget.

That was what Cecilia wanted, anyway. But Luvia was just too stubborn to give up! Even the pressure of the Dragon Sleeper didn't seem to get through to her, and so the brunette just had to innovate when it came to finding new ways to torment her. Keeping the dragon sleeper in place, Cecilia bobbed Luvia up and down, each time driving her back down harder and harder against her knee. She could hear her scream, but even that didn't bring her the satisfaction she was after - not when she was still struggling desperately, trying to fight back. All Cecilia could do was to keep a close eye on Luvia, her eyelid twitching and her teeth clenched, as she waited for the moment she would break. "Nngh...come on!" she grumbled. "Give up already!"

But Luvia wasn't going to give up. Quite the opposite - she still had one trick up her sleeve, and she was going to put everything she could into it! Suddenly, her arms shot up, grabbing Cecilia by the head. Even now, when Cecilia was brutally punishing her spine, Luvia still had the will in her to resist! The sheer tenacity on display was enough to cause Cecilia to gasp. And it meant she was open just enough for Luvia to swing her leg upward in an arc, flipping herself into the air to slam her knee against her opponent's face!

The force of the blow sent Cecilia's head snapping backward with a crack as she let out a pained moan, and she had no choice but to release Luvia. The crowd burst into cheers, both at the sight of such an impressive counter from the Finnish woman and for her refusal to back down in the face of danger! But all Cecilia could do was stagger back in a daze, her head lazily rolling back and forth over her shoulders and her eyes glazed over, before she fell off her feet and came crashing to the mat below!

[Devastated]

Luvia's spine was nearing it's limit, and so was her lungs from the dragon sleeper...there was one thing which still had enough in to keep fighting. Pride. Luvia was a prideful woman, and her pride didn't allow her to give in here. She gnashed her teeth as she performed a rather miraculous comeback, swinging her leg up and nailing her knee right into Cecilia's face!

The blow was followed with a chorus of cheers as the raven-haired wrestler released Luviagelita Edelfelt, dropping the great one and stumbling backwards! The effectiveness of the blow and the thunder boom that was the roars and cheers from the crowd gave Luvia enough energy to roll over onto her front and push up to her hands and knees. She halted there for a moment, the stinging pain running through her spine forcing her body to stiffen. Though the sight of Cecilia toppling over and crashing down onto her back....made Luvia's eyes widen!

She saw a chance now! Gnashing her teeth together, the blonde forced herself up. Rising through the pain, as she would stumble her way towards the downed Cecilia! She tried to grab at Cecilia's arm and yank her up towards her feet, trying to swing her around so that she was facing the back of the American girl. She'd try to move one arm in under Cecilia's arm and slide her hand up to grasp at Cecilia's neck, and then do the same with the other! Trying to lock her foe into a full nelson....but she didn't mean to stop there! She'd try and heave Cecilia up and swing herself backwards! Trying to go for a Dragon suplex! Specifically one of her signature moves - Sapphire Suplex! Trying to go into a bridge following the move...though a short-lived bridge as the pain in her spine would force her to drop flat on her back after the move should it hit.

[CaptainL]

With Luvia driving her knee up into Cecilia's face, the dark-haired girl found her skull rattled. Everything around her blurred, and she had no choice but to let her hold on her opponent drop as she went stumbling back, just before her balance at last gave out and she fell to the mat with an unceremonious thud. It seemed like just a minute ago that Cecilia had the blonde at her mercy, and that she was just about to cement her comeback with a victory over a foe who deserved to be knocked down a peg or two. But Luvia still had some fire left in her, and she wasn't about to let Cecilia get away unpunished. Now, she'd freed herself from Cecilia's clutches at the same time she'd delivered a hard-hitting blow, and with her head still spinning, Cecilia was feeling the consequences; she lay there heavy and motionless. To Luvia, this looked like the perfect opportunity to turn things around!

Storming after Cecilia, she was able to catch up to her foe, grabbing her by the arms and lifting her to her feet. Still dazed as she was, Cecilia could do little more than rise to an unsteady footing - and moments later, Luvia got her arms trapped, stretching them out to the sides with a Nelson hold! The fans were cheering louder and louder by the minute, eager to see Luvia take back the dominant position and put Cecilia in her place. And those who truly knew Luvia were getting all the more excited at the unmistakable setup to the Sapphire Suplex - which Luvia would soon deliver on, swinging Cecilia overhead and hurling her straight into the mat!

Cecilia's head and shoulders were the first to make impact, and a groan was ripped from her lungs as a tremor shook her body. Her legs kicked into the air for just a moment before her body went slack, sagging over forward into a C shape under her own weight. Her head was spinning, and she could barely make out what was in front of her when the whole world wavered. When Luvia went to bridge her back, and the referee moved closer, the cheers in the arena were reaching a fever pitch! This, it seemed, was it - this would bring Luvia the victory!

Or at least, it seemed that way - but seconds later, Luvia was forced to abandon her attempt at the pin, thanks to the pain in her back. The cheers that had lit up the stands abruptly went silent, and everyone looked on at the ring wide-eyed and aghast. Just when it seemed like Luvia was about to finish things off with a bang, her strength had failed her. Cecilia slumped over to lay flat on her face, where she lay for a time groaning under her breath. But soon, she was able to prop herself up on her elbows and to lean her head back, shaking out her hair. And when she saw Luvia lying there helplessly, a smug grin broke across her face. Just when it seemed like Luvia was about to win it all, the pain had caught up to her - and now, Cecilia had her splayed before her, helpless and vulnerable.

[Devastated]

The crowd cheered loudly, the entire arena seemed to have been enraptured with elation at the sight of Luviagelita Edelfelt nailing Cecilia Lombard with that signature suplex of hers! Driving her down and arching her body for that bridging pin! Everyone seemed certain that this would be the end, that Cecilia had been defeated and Great Luvia would walk out of the ring as the victor! That good would triumph over evil!

Though that did not come to pass...as the pain in her back didn't allow her to keep the bridge even long enough for the referee to drop down and slap their hand against the canvas. Luvia's body gave in and she fell flat onto her back, her generous rack heaving with each breath that she took...

She soon pushed and rolled herself over onto her front, forcing herself up onto her hands and knees. Panting and with sweat dripping down her face onto the mat, she raised her head and glared at Cecilia. Trying to force herself up as she caught the raven haired girl's gaze. She looked to get up to her knees and tried to guide Cecilia up with her, aiming to nail her in the face with a forearm strike! Luvia was hurting...she was tired....but she was damn well going to do everything she could to fight Cecilia!
