Plan Interruptions

She wasnt expecting to get tackled in the waist like that. But Juniper was very adaptable to her opponent's odd tactics. When he wrapped his arms around her waist, she grins wide and raised her arms above her head for a double axe handle to his back. It was about to come down when, he suddenly swings her!

"Ack! Nooo--Ugh!" She was quickly pinned and he counts to one. Sabre was a bit shocked with hat speed. Be for she could even help Juniper, Shidohad taken her down...

He let go of the pin and got off of Juniper. She lays there for a moment.  "G-Geez..Youre a fast one. But this is submission! Make us tap, nit flustered with those silly pins!" Juniper says. Meanwhile, Sabre was slowly moving towards him to lock up.

"S-sorry!" Shido answered Juniper. He was surprised he was able to go with what he planned so far, yet he was also genuinely apologetic, as he viewed the two women as friends and didn't want to annoy them.

He was able to floor one opponent, but he really hadn't planned much of anything after that. All he could think to do was turn his attention to Sabre and try to face her one on one for as long as that would work out for him. He knew this was very dumb of him, at least on paper, but with no other clues as to how to go about this, Shido would move to approach Sabre and lock up with her, as it seemed she was looking to do the same.

He knew that if it was a contest of strength, Sabre could womanhandle him with little effort. He'd lock up with her regardless, asking "So how bad an idea do you think this was?"

Whether he did it on purpose or not, he knocked Juniper down a peg with that slam. She was a bit sluggish to get up. 

Sabre locked up with Shido and pushed on his hands. She was asked by the man if it was a dumb idea of him to do something. Was it taking on both women?  Or taking Sabre on in a one on one? Either way, the snarky woman in Sabre would have agreed. But th warrior that Sabre currently was tilt her head. "No idea is dumb..."

Shido wasn't aware of how soon Juniper would get up. He already made the mistake of losing track of her before and being restrained and he knew every second that he could use to fight one on one mattered. But he also knew he wasn't going to overpower Sabre.

Shido would attempt a standard technical wrestling maneuver and try to grab Sabre's hand or forearm, spin around behind her, and twist her arm behind her back for a quick hammerlock. If this worked, he'd try to transition into a headlock and take the powerful woman down to the mat with him!

Sabre wasnt going for that. She watched Juniper get grounded by Shido in almost the same way he was trying to ground her. The cave girl moved forward to the and shove Shido a bit. But she wasnt going to let go. Sabre let out a Liu yell and tries to lift Shido off of the floor with strength alone!

Juniper was on one knee now, looking and assessing the situation.

Shido had tried his best to keep both women occupied without letting them catch him, but he knew it was going to happen one way or another. He found himself lifted clear off the ground. He certainly couldn't hope to turn the tables by gaining footing and lifting her, instead, as her herculean strength would simply deny him!

His only hope seemed to be to counter somehow once he was sure of what kind of move Sabre was going for, but it didn't look like that was a distinct possibility for him. It seemed that his luck was running out.

Sabre was looking ready to throw Shido clear across the ring! But before she could do that, Juniper took a step closer. She smirks and nods to the redhead. Juniper then giggles and looks up to Shido. "Look...You didnt think you'd win this, did you? If you did then that was a bit dumb of you...How about to make up for your loss, we show you our....Finisher" She purposely took a pause to add a bit of an exciting suspense to the mix.

Shido smiled at Juniper before being tossed across the ring like a sack of potatoes. There was a thud as he hit the mat, but he tried as best he could to use the momentum to roll and get himself on all fours.

Whilst getting slowly rising up to his feet, Shido retorted "As stoked as I'd be to see your finisher, I have to say it's hard for me to take that claim seriously. If you do have a finisher, you'd best be prepared to use it." He became more serious and took a fighting stance, going on to say "You guys wanna beat UKE, right? Then I'd suggest coming at each opponent full force, including me. I mean, imagine what it would do to your rep if people heard you guys took it easy on a newbie....people like...Cecelia Northman"

Shido, personally felt that he was going too far with this taunt. He was only able to keep his composure by reminding himself that it was coming from a good place. This was the first time that June and Sabre teamed up and Shido was determined to try to make them exert themselves and practice working as a team. He had hoped that they'd see it that way, too.

Sabre almost took that taunt. She was ready to charge right into Shido and rip him to shreds, leaving him in a hospital bed. Except one, that was bad (Obviously) Two, Shido was a new guy who knew no better. And most importantly, three. Sabre was able to make him pay with their tortuous finisher. Sabre still runs at Shido with a good amount of speed, hoping to catch him in her arms again and raise him up. However, the Cave woman wouldnt try to toss him across the ring again. No...She would put him in a move she herself knew all to well. A torture rack.

Shido expected Sabre to come at him full force. He didn't know if she'd honed her skills recently to become a more technical fighter, but he assumed as as she demonstrated with those punches earlier that made his side ache to this very moment.

He was hoisted up rather effortlessly into her torture rack submission. It only made sense given the size different and Sabre's frightening strength. His spine stretched across Sabre's shoulder and his chin and leg being pulled down, he grunted tried to look around to see if the rope was nearby so he could grab it before he sustained any serious damage.
