The Tiger's Den

"I warned you it would hurt," Zero told Clye, with no degree of sympathy. As far as she was concerned Clyde was her project. "Now come." She hunkered down, waiting for Clyde to make his move but not making a move to stop him. She almost slapped her forehead again when Clyde asked which move he would use. Luckily for him he figured it out, or else Zero would have had to demonstrate it on him again.

Zero didnt resist as Clyde hauled her up in the air, and with a pained grunt her back hit the floor. It hut much worse than being slammed into the ring mats, but was nothing she couldn't handle. It was wasn't perfectly executed but it did good enough damage. ".....not bad," she said looking up at Clyde.

Looking down at Zero after putting her down on the floor with a bodyslam, Clyde would wonder if his teacher was okay. When he saw that Zero was fine and was still as dull sounding and blanked faced as ever, Clyde would finally speak.

"Damn Right I wouldnt bad!" Clyde would boast with a cheerful grin before kneeling beside Zero and helping up. "I was having a little trouble liftin ya though, you're a little Heav-" Clyde would instantly silence himself before finishing his sentence, forgetting how sensitive women were about their weight. Even if Zero wasnt the most feminine lady out there, she was still a woman, and Clyde didnt want to take any chances, having learned many times in his life that there were some things you shouldnt tell a woman.

"Now what was the next move...? Aww Yea... Sleeper!" Clyde would exclaim once he remembed, trying to get his arm around Zero's throat with a grip that was too light to really hurt but also tight enough to cut oxygen off.

If Zero tapped to the Sleeper, Clyde wouldnt waste too much time in apply the next move, which was the Abdominal Stretch.

Zero's eyes narrowed dangerously at Clyde for what he was about to say, giving him a fierce glare. It was clear that if he had finished what he was saying the lesson would have taken a much more violent turn.

Once again she allowed herself to be pulled in by Clyde so she could judge his moves accordingly. The sleeper was next, so she braced herself for a light head. As soon as it was applied lack of oxygen was immediate, as was dizziness, a sure sign that Clyde was doing it right. Grunting in pain, Zero tapped on Clyde's arm right away, not wanting to spend any more time in the choke.

As soon as she was released she found herself in the abdominal stretch, and groaned as the pain set in. Well, at least Clyde hd been paying attention.

"Either you're a good teacher, Im just a natrual!" Clyde would boast happily, patting a hand on Zero's shoulder as he twisted her body, keep his legs wrapped tightly around his teacher while he wrenched her body. While he wasnt exactly trying to hurt Zero, Clyde was having fun dishing out a small bit of payback to his teacher.

Clyde would eventually release Zero and prepare to lift her up for the ol' Torture Rack. But Clyde seemed to forget about his limited strength. Although he could lift Zero up, Clyde had a bit of trouble keeping Zero on his shoulders and would try to hold Zero on his shoulders as steady as he could, but would end up tripping and falling with Zero, landing on his stomach as Zero layed across his shoulders, probably not feeling anything as Clyde got a mouth full of the floor below.

"Maybe I shouldnt try that one...." Clyde would announce, burried in the floor.

Zero winced as another wave of pain coursed through her body, trapped in the submission with no way out. Clyde was picking up these holds pretty quickly after just experiencing them once. It seemed the Texan had just a bit of talent after all. It became that she had to tap out again to the abdominal stetch.

Just as she was released Clyde hauled her up, just as she was expecting him to, since the next move was the torture rack. She was prepared for pain once she was up in the air. What she didn't expect was for Clyde to stagger, and with a surprised blink she toppled to the floor on top of her student, who was helpful enough to break her fall. She got herself up from the heap Clyde had gotten them in, straddling his back with a sigh. "....Maybe you're right," she said. "Still....not to bad. You may just win after all."

Zero looked at the clock. It was getting pretty late. She had lost track of time since bringing Clye home with her. "....by the way," she said. "Do you have a finishing move?"

"*Ooof!* Huh..? Really? Think so?" Clyde would mutter with his chin buried upon the dorm floor. Looking up at his Teacher through the corner of his eye, wondering why she was sitting on him like this. He couldnt help but find the position he was in slightly odd and actually a bit enticing.

"Why am I always on the bottom?" Clyde would munble to himself in a low voice. Although he sure as hell wasnt complaining, he just couldnt help but wonder.

"Huh? Fishing Move?" Clyde would ask before realizing what Zero really said. "Aw Yeah! Finishing Move! Yeah I got me one of those... The good ol' Texas Piledriver!" Clyde would exclaim proudly, under his teacher, taking pride in knowing sucha move.

Zero nodded slowlt, knowing the move and its effectiveness. Cleverly named as well. "Let me show you mine," she said, right before she would follow through. First she would grab one of Clyde's arms and twist it behind his back in a hammerlock. She'd the reach forward and loop her other arm around Clyde's throat. Once all was set up, Zero would haul backwards, applying a tight dragon sleeper to Clyde while seated on his back. This was her signature Dragon's Bite finisher.

"Say what...?" Clyde would question, blinking as he questioned his teacher, thinking he misheard her. Clyde's eyes would however widen as he felt Zero clutch and grab his arms, wincing as she twisted it behind his back and as well as gagging a bit as she wrapped his arm around his own throat.

"Z! Z!!" Choked Clyde, trying to stop Zero before she actually pulled on Clyde's arms and applied that tight Dragon's Bite. His cries of pain would be silenced as he gagged from having his throat around his arms. Clyde wanted to tap, but wasnt able to since Zero had his arms, instead he mutterd. "I-...Gaaaviiive...!!!" Clyde would try to say, while enduring the Dragon's Bite.

Unfortunately for Clyde Zero did not let go as before when he tapped out, and would actually pull back on Clyde with more force. This finisher was designed by Zero for knockouts, not submissions, and that was exactly what Zero was going for. "Go to sleep now," she said into Clyde's ear. "This lesson is over for now. Have a good night." With that Zero's arm would tighten arund Clyde's throat, looking to choke him unconscious and end this little lesson.

Clyde's eyes seemed to widen with a shocked look of horror as Zero began to pull back on Clyde's arm with even more force. Causing the Texan to gag as his own arm was being used to choke himself out.

"Z-Z-Ze-*ack*!?!?" Clyde would gag out, choking as he tried to speak. He couldnt help but be confused by Zero's actions and felt like he was being betrayed more than anything. He was helpless to do anything however and couldnt only sit and take the Dragon's Bite, getting only weaker and weaker by the second until at last the Texan's struggles began to slow more and more, until at last Clyde Gastin was left out cold in Zero's clutches.
