L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

For Mary... this moment was something new... after years of only fighting underground, finally with a fight in her hands ready to show the world what she was really made of, would her moment to shine begin here... and with a song that would accompany her well, it would be heard by the whole world

Theme Music

And so, finally, with her theme song playing, she would make her appearance, advancing through the venue, without much fanfare or grand gestures... just being herself, with confidence in her body and a toughness that was evident in her walk... so finally in the ring, she would climb up the corner, reaching her corner and then, with a glance around the entire ring, she would wait in the corner for the arrival of her first opponent.

Began playing soon after Mary Allen settled in the ring. She waited a few moments to build suspense, before walking out from out if backstage and to the top of the arena ramp. She stood for a few moments flexing allowing the fans and her opponent to take in the physique in front of them.

Spoiler

Of course, her opponent in the ring wasn't short by any means, but she was shorter and while she muscular, Sophie was more muscular. If this was doing to be a battle of power, 'Solidarity' was certain that she'd win it. But she knew far better than to underestimate a smaller opponent. If being bigger was all it took to win she'd have gone through life essentially undefeated, but she hadn't. She'd need to apply skill, which she had plenty of

Sophie made her way to the ring with casual confidence, not even bothering to use the ring steps and instead choosing to climb on to ring apron, to flex some more for the crowd before stepping in. It might well have speed like an opportune time to Mary to ambush her before the bell rang.

Finally seeing her opponent enter, Mary's face betrayed a moment of doubt. Just by looking at her, she knew the situation was stacked against her; physically smaller, she would have to compensate for that with more skill.

Seeing her finally enter the ring, Mary waited to see her arrive, and once they were both in the ring, Mary would say to her seriously

Listen carefully, it's my first time here, so it's good for you to know: I don't plan to go slow with you, or with anyone really, but I have one rule: if you ask me to stop, I will, so you can recover and continue or stop. But you'll only get 1 chance

Mary would say, before hesitantly offering her hand, still not fully understanding the gesture.

Sophie found this 'offer' insulting. It presumed that she'd ever need it and that she'd even want it. No, she'd rather lose then ask for mercy from anyone in a ring. If for no other reason than they'd expect her to return the favor and she had no intention of ever giving anyone such a favor. She accepted the handshake, but got a little closer before leting go. She didn't exactly tower over her opponent, the top of her head was just around her eye level, but she was significantly wider.

"Ask for mercy? I don't think so, Mary. I'd prefer to just even. But if we're going to exchange 'rules', let me give you one. I go into every match trying to break and dislocate arms and legs. If I have one of your limbs in a submission hold, I will try to snap it. So you better get out or tap before I do if you don't want that. Be quick, I try not to give my opponents a chance to submit."

Okay, in that case, we've already decided...may the best one win

Mary would simply say, with a smile on her face, she would walk to her corner, and although her face would turn serious, she certainly wouldn't be able to stop thinking about what she said... Did she really do that in every fight? If so, she'd have to prepare... And so she could just wait for the bell to ring, while Mary signaled that she was ready, her mind focusing on one thing: Not to fall...

Sophie could see the discomfort in Mary's face. It looked like what she said made the impression that she wanted to. She to went back to her corner andd waited for the ring bell to ring. As soon as it did, she brought her fists up for a high guard, orthodox stance, left foot forward as she shuffled to ward her opponent.

The first thing she would do is step her left foot back and forth, linging multiple times while feigning left jabs in front of her face, trying to keep her distance. But one of those feigned lunges would instead be a stiff leg kick targeted Mary's right knee. If that connected, Sophie would step forward to drive a right handed shovel punch into her foes' abdomen to bend her over.

The fight is starting, and finally the The bell rang, and Mary prepared herself to meet Sophie's position, leaving Mary unsure how she would fight it. So, as she approached, She would be surprised by a kick to her knee, making her groan, and soon she would see a blow approaching her abdomen, so Mary, though in pain, would put up her arms to protect herself, falling on her backside to the mat from the attack on her leg, looking at Sophie with doubt... realizing that his fighting style was unfamiliar to Mary

Sophie's punch was obstructed by Mary's block, but her opponent ended up on her backside on the ground anyway. Trying not to waste the opportunity, Sophie would lunge forward and attempt to slam her right knee square into Mary's face to knock her flat on her back.

If that was successful, she'd attempt to use the opportunity of a dazed opponent to continue going to work damaging her right knee. She'd lean over to grab the blonde's right foot to lift it up off the canvas and hold it place as slammed her right knee into the side of her opponent's right knee.

The incoming knee was too fast. Mary tried to scramble up, but Sophie’s knee crashed hard against her head, sending her flat back onto the canvas, dazed and seeing stars. Her vision swam, and for a second, she couldn't make sense of the roaring crowd.

However, the sudden surge of pain when Sophie grabbed her right foot jolted Mary’s survival instincts back online. She knew what happened to people who got their limbs snapped in the underground. Before Sophie could execute the brutal knee drop onto her joint, Mary used her free left leg to swiftly launch a desperate, heavy kick directly aimed at Sophie’s chest or arms. Mary struggled wildly on the mat, twisting her body to break the powerhouse's grip on her foot, refusing to let her rookie debut end with a broken leg.
