Until next Summer: Aria vs Emaline

[Ringropes98]

Being choked to the brink of consciousness only to suddenly get slapped awake was quite disorienting. So when Emaline did it to Aria, the Arabian wasn’t in any position to stop the pinkette from shifting on top of her and trapping her in a body scissors. Especially since before she did so, she gave Aria an elbow to the nose beforehand to keep her dazed and confused. Making the body scissors all the more painful.

Deciding that merely applying a bodyscissor wasn't enough, Emaline also grabbed Aria's arm by the wrist and twisted it, supplementing her scissorhold with a wristlock. "Come now." The Viper resumed speaking in an urbane manner. "Would you kindly grace my ears with your screams?" She 'requested' with a mocking smirk. "If not, begging would be an acceptable substitute. If possible, both are preferable." Regardless of how her opponent replied, she maintained both submission holds and didn't ease up on the pressure at all.

[Ringropes98]

Of course the blow to the face and the follow up body scissors wasn’t enough for the viper. Before Aria could get her mind back in order, she felt her grabbing one of her arms and twisting it into a wrist lock. Forcing a pained hiss to sneak past Arias grit teeth. She refused to answer the pinkettes taunts. Except without her mask, the pain on her face was clear to see.

[Kreydos]

"Hehe." Emaline giggled at Aria's lack of a response. "Such obstinance. How delightfully adorable." The Viper clamped her bodyscissor tighter and wrenched her wristlock for a more agonising twist. "Are Assassins not supposed to be pragmatic?" She asked with a sneer. "Surely, you realised that begging is your only option to end your suffering. Or at the very least, your best chance of it." Like before, she wouldn't let up on either of her holds no matter how her opponent answered. From that point on, she squeezed until she knocked Aria out cold.

[Ringropes98]

Aria would remain stubborn to the end, she was determined to at least do that no matter how much pain Emaline forced upon her. Sadly stubbornness wouldn’t gain her freedom, and soon enough the squeeze on her waist and the agony of the wrist lock became too much for the Arabian. Her breathing coming out in small short gasps as her strength faded away. Her body shutting down and her mind drifting as Aria passed out in the pinkettes grip. No longer capable of putting up the fight.

[Kreydos]

"Hmm..." Emaline's sadistic smile faltered slightly as Aria faded into unconsciousness from the bodyscissor and wristlock combo. Although the Viper still very much enjoyed her victim's agonised expression, she did not however, appreciate Aria's refusal to beg or capitulate or anything of that sort. Once again, the ref approached to start the count but was waved away by Emaline.

First, she flipped the Assassin's snoozing body onto her belly. Then the pinkette grabbed Aria by her hair and nestled her neck into the pit of Emaline's knee. From there, she grabbed her foot and cranked her foreleg down like a lever to choke her now trapped foe, flexing and showing off all the while. The audience reacted negatively to her needless cruelty but she heeded them no mind. Instead, she focused on rousing Aria awake via the same method used to knock her out in the first place.

Yoga-style Headscissors

[Ringropes98]

Aria would once more be put to sleep by one of emaline’s cruel holds. But it seemed that her continued resistance and stubbornness was beginning to grate on the viper. Not long after being released, the pinkette would roll the Arabian onto her belly and lock her into another headscissors. Shaking her slightly to try and rouse her from her sleep. And while it did cause Aria to wake up slightly. She was quickly re-entering dreamland thanks to emaline’s hold. The hold changing little but the crowds view on Emaline. From cheering for the pathetic underdog in the beginning, to booing the cruel heel that probably deserved everything she got.

[Kreydos]

Emaline loosened her headscissor when she felt a sliver of life from Aria so that she wouldn't fall unconscious too soon, though she remained thoroughly ensared in the Viper's leg. She gave the Assassin some time to gather her bearings before speaking up. "I hope you don't mind me asking where your voice disappeared to?" Emaline interrogated Aria in a falsely polite tone. "I somewhat miss it you see. Although the sight of you squirming about with your eyes rolling into the back of your head is quite entertaining, the experience isn't complete without your voice."

[Ringropes98]

While emaline was trying to wake the Arabian up to continue her pointless torture. The audiences boos became even louder. Not only did the pinkette cheat by using her entourage for distractions, but now she wouldn’t allow the match to end because her ego wouldn’t allow it. It was grating on the crowds nerves. And even worse, it was grating on the referees.

Narrowing her eyes at how the pinkette once again stopped the count for her own enjoyment. The girl in the striped bikini decided to take matters into her own hands and signaled for the bell. The bell rang and emaline’s theme began to play. And the referee moved to shake the pinkette off of the unconscious Arabian. ”Congratulations. You’ve won, now get out of the ring and stop wasting our time.” she said over the chorus of boos.

[Kreydos]

"Tch..." Emaline clicked her tongue when the ref prematurely declared her victory and called for the bell to ring. Soon enough, her music started playing, prompting her to drop her headscissor and let Aria crumple to the ground. Nonetheless, the Viper still sought to celebrate her win. She stood up and ran both hands through the back of her head, combing her hair. Then she kicked the Assassin onto her back and planted a foot on her cheek.

"Nice one Ema, I knew you'd pull it out in the end!" Yoro cheered for victorious friend, while Shira only made a slight smile and clapped.
Once Emaline had her fill of indulging in her own win, she set off. Just before she left however, she patted the referee's shoulder and said "you will regret that." Denying the ref the chance to reply, she rejoined her friends and together they made their way up the ramp.
