One More Chance...

"Well..." Conza knew that Ye was pretty speedy and fast. He did have one bug problem that persists through all of his fights. "I don't uh...Really have the ability to escape when I'm caught in a hold or submission...And if I'm caught, then I can't use my speed."

"But you're small!" she insisted, "Use your size to your advantage to slip out of holds. Come here and I'll show you."

She gestured for him to come over to her.

Conza gives a nervous look over of the white-haired woman and her insistance that he could slip right out of a hold. Cautiously, he walks towards her. "A-Alright, whatever you say, Yuki..."

As soon as he came close enough, Yuki grabbed the boy, pulling him into a sleeperhold, her grip as hard as iron. She pulled him down with her so she held him against her while she lay on the mat.

She acted quickly towards him, spinning him around and grabbing him. Her arms wrapping around his neck in a tight sleeper hold. As she fell back to have them both laying down, he cries out and claws at her arms.

"Now think!" she said, flexing her arms to tighten her grip, "Right now you're focused on trying to pull my arms away. What else can you do?"

He cries out louder when her arms tighten around his neck. She told him that he could do something else. But what? He thought. He makes an attempt to sit up, but couldn't lif yer body up with his, so they came back down. The hold wad working, as Conza began to feel sluggish. He tries to roll them to the side.

"That's it! Keep going!" Yuki encouraged, as she felt Conza rolling to the side, "Imagine the mat is the ring. You're too small to push me off, so what do you do?"

To her encouragement, Conza continues to roll them both on their side. From there, he throws his elbow back at her side. He was doing good, but the hold was getting to him. His eyes narrow slightly, and he felt sluggish.

Yuki gasped lightly as his elbow dug into her side. She gave a grin and squeezed a bit more, "Just cause this is training doesn't mean I'm gonna go easy on you Conza."

She looked down at him, "When you are faced with an opponent bigger than you, always go for the ropes when you're in a submission hold.
