Entropy Title Match Triple Threat! Taylor vs. Adrian vs. Lia

Taylor's satisfaction from downing Adrian was short lived. She had nowhere to go to avoid Lia's dropkick. Her feet slammed into Taylor's chest and crushed her against the turnbuckle, knocking the wind out of her. She slid down the turnbuckles and ended sitting with her knees up in front, leaning against the corner, clutching her chest with her arms.

"Well played." She rasped.

Adrian caught the dropkick out of the corner of her eye as Lia's boots smacked into Taylor's chest, caught in a mixture of smirking at the champ's misfortune and wincing at the impact. Still, opening! Main bit of advise she had gotten over the past few weeks was to not let up when her opponent was at a disadvantage.

Although she didn't put Taylor down, it was a perfect position for the cosplayer to pull herself up on the edge of the ring, then using the top rope as a sling shot she cleared the ropes and spun herself so as she fell she'd hopefully catch Taylor with a dropkick of her own at the expense of a fairly painful landing.

Great, Adrian was back already. Taylor turtled up and covered her head with her arms and braced for the incoming dropkick. Adrian's boots battered her shins, the impact knocked the wind out of her again. Her first instinct was to roll out of the ring to safety, but screw that. She was still okay.

The first things Taylor saw when she opened her eyes were Adrian's feet. She lunged at them to grab hold of her ankle and tried sliding out of the ring while pulling Adrian's ankle up over the bottom rope, switching hands so she could hold it from the outside. Keeping one of them tied up and keeping away from the other would have to do, at least until she could shake off the effects of her serial dropkicking.

Adrian should have probably checked before leaping up for the Yumi Ohka dropkick, if she had she would have seen that Taylor's knees were up against her chest, not giving her the clear shot.

the landing was not the softest thing in the world either. "Ugh..." she grunted as her back slammed against the mat, giving the champ enough time to grab her ankle and try and trap it in the ropes. "Hey! Let go!" She yelped, sitting up and grabbing the middle rope with her hands for leverage. She was in an awkward and vunerable position, trying to kick Taylor's hands off with one leg and pull back with the other to get herself de-tangled wasn't the best place to be. Especially with Lia still in this match.

After landing the drop kick, Lia hit the mat. She could see Adrian climbing to the top and was quick to roll away, getting a few feet away and rising to a tense crouch. Adrian leaped from the ropes to deliver a drop kick to Taylor, but Taylor escaped and managed to tangle Adrian up in the ropes. Rising, Lia smiled. "Hey," she called out to Adrian, "Remember that time we were all in the ring together?" She winked, a feral grin on her face, "I do!" Taking a step back, Lia charged forward. The target was too tasty to pass up and, well, she could not very well COMPLETELY ignore Adrian before the bigger threat was taken down. With all her momentum, Lia would aim a running punt straight into Adrian's midsection.

Adrian was starting to pull herself free from Taylor when Lia called out to her, colour draining from her face very quickly. She new she probably had this coming after kicking the bunny girl's head off but... "Couldn't you pick a better time for Re-GAAAH!" The cosplayer yelped as Miester's own head of security planted her foot firmly at the base of her spine, stunning her as she flopped back down on the mat. Legs still on the ropes and Taylor still on the outside.

At first, Taylor had planned on letting go. She had no interest in bending rules or anything like that, and she had half expected Lia to not go after Adrian anyway. But as long as Adrian was easy prey...

Taylor kept her hold on Adrian's ankle and leapt up to the apron. She tucked Adrian's foot under her arm, wrapped her legs around Adrian's and hooked her ankles around the bottom rope, and then fell backwards. She dangled off the apron and cranked back on Adrian's foot, straining the foot and twisting the ankle.

She thought of maybe saying something to rub it in, but then she thought it was probably already rubbed in enough.

Adrian's time was going from bad to worse, as Taylor decided to up the ante after Lia floored her with her running kick to the back by twisting and pulling on her ankle. The cosplayer hissed in pain, not wanting to give Taylor the pleasure of having her scream out. Lia was fine though she could make her scream anytime.


Which sounded a lot better in her head.


Still, she wasn't going to lie there and let the blue haired punk cripple her. She had to act quickly before the referee forced Taylor to break the hold regardless, she needed to counter, not just get a break. Trying her best to sit up she went to pull Taylor's ankles off the bottom rope, letting the punk's own weight drive her head first into the floor even if it meant falling down and out of the ring with her.

Taylor had her ankles firmly locked in place around the bottom rope, and when Adrian began to pry at them she wasn't about to make it easy for her. While she resisted, she had more time to crank on Adrian's foot.

"One! Two! Three!" The ref began to count. Taylor had forgotten about her.

Suddenly Taylor realized that while she was distracted by the ref, Adrian had pried her ankles off of the bottom rope. She lurched suddenly toward the floor as her grip on Adrian's foot began to slip. "Whoa, there!" She reached behind her to put a hand on the floor to cushion her inevitable fall, and then flopped awkwardly onto her back. She pushed off the ring apron with her feet and rolled back over her shoulder to end on all fours, and immediately looked up at the ring to keep track of her opponents.

It had hurt her a fair bit, but Adrian was out, rolling away from the ropes and cradling her foot while Taylor dropped to the floor. It wouldn't keep the punk down for long but at least she had some distance to recover: just her, the ref... and Lia.

Evidently this strategy needed a better planning stage than she had given it.
