L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

Valerie’d done it. She’d beaten Alaina Sanders. It seemed almost impossible to believe, but as she lay there, with her body draped over her mentor, she could feel the energy in the woman’s body, or the lack thereof. There was no way she would kickout, simply no way-

And she kicked out.

Despite herself, Valerie couldn't help but let out a long groan of frustration as she was flung away, feeling the frustration mount, but she did her best to push past it. That was close, so close. Maybe the Amazon wasn’t finished, but she had to be on the borderline. Just a little more.

Reaching over, Valerie rolled onto her back and pulled Alaina in by the wrist, as she tried to get legs around the woman’s head and shoulder - she was going for a triangle hold, her Neo ValleyLock. If she couldn't make the woman give up, she’d go for the nuclear option and just suck the fight right out of her.

Alaina was down and looking up at the lights as Valley grabbed her hand. She had survived butnthst was only going to prolong a defeat if she thisnkept up.

Alaina felt the touch on her wrist and pulled away, yanking her arm free as she rolled to her side. She needed distance and now. Alaina was trying to roll to the ropes looking to use them to rise back up to her feet feeling every bit the desperate woman she was in between these ropes.

Desperation was starting to sink in, and not the regular kind. This was the raw, pleading desperation that comes from having something you want so close, so teasingly close, and having it slip through your fingers no matter how many times you grasp it, again and again, until it drives you batty.

What more did she need to do? What else was there?

She tried to get Alaina in the submission hold, but the woman slipped away before had the chance, showing her keen instincts. Valerie let out a frustrated grunt, then pushed up and gave chase. She reached out and wrapping her arms around the woman’s waist as she tried to pull her back, hoping to get her over towards the center of the ring once more.
