Chika Igarashi vs. Valley Doll III - Hardcore Matches For Dummies

[BlackAkuma]

Breathe. Just…breathe.

From the floor, Valerie blinked and did her best to get her breathing under control, trying to focus through the mounting pain. It should’ve been simple enough, but it turned out to be one of those things that worked better in theory than in practice. The truth was that Chika was doing an exceptional job of keeping her on the backfoot throughout this match. She’d have thought that she could withstand the smaller woman’s onslaught, even if things went outside the ring, but the plain truth was that she was simply not built for taking damage in this sort of way. Chika had her number.

So long as she could keep things outside of the ring, anyway.

Inside, Valerie was certain she could start turning things back around, and she did her best to push up, trying to will herself back into the fight. She started to sit up, curling off the ground-

She saw Chika at the last moment, just as she was coming down from on high. Soon enough that she could process what was about to happen, too late for her to actually do anything about it.

The smaller woman’s body came down on her like an avalanche, hitting with enough impact to make her fly off the floor for an instant. Valerie opened her mouth for a cry, but only this weak, wheezing noise came out, before she flopped back down . Sucking in air, deep lungful, trying her best to keep her whits about her, even though it felt like her chest was about to cave in.

With a flip to the outside of the ring, Chika drove the air out of Valley Doll's body as she slammed into her with a Moonsault. Getting up, Chika did find the main issue with keeping Valley outside the ring - she had to get inside to actually win the match. Paradoxically, if she chose the moment wrong, and Valley recovered once she got inside the ring. Chika needed one more attack, powerful enough to keep the blonde down for good...

A section of the crowd, despite seeing a very impressive and athletic display with Chika's moonsault, would give Raven Knight an idea however:

"WE WANT TABLES!"

"WE WANT TABLES!"

Chika chuckled at the crowd answering her own question, as she turned towards the ring, lifting the apron to find exactly what she was looking for.

Leaving Valley to her own devices was risky, but this was a risk she was willing to take to defeat the blonde for good.

Once the table was out, Chika took a quick moment setting it up onto it's legs, before turning her attention to Valley Doll. Grabbing the young woman by her head, Chika planned to march Valley for a table, planning to end the match with her next move...

Valerie didn’t want tables. The absolute last thing Valerie wanted at the moment was a table. What she wanted, more than anything, was to get up, get back in the ring and bring this match to her level, put it on a playing field where she was comfortable. That, however, didn’t seem to be in the cards at the moment.

The good news, though, was that setting up tables took time. Important time. Time that Valerie could use to catch her breath as the Raven Knight worked, recovering from the beating she’d taken. Instead of getting up, she lay on the floor and sucked in lungfuls of air, knowing that she wouldn’t be alone for much longer.

Sure enough, Chika came back, reached down, and pulled her back up by the head, beginning the march towards the table. What she planned to do when they got there, she had no idea. And she didn’t much want to know, either.

She waited until they were close enough, then rushed forward, pushed at the smaller woman’s back, and attempted to shove her against the steel steps, throwing her whole body into the effort for some added momentum, some extra ‘oomph’.
