Shauna O'Connor vs Johnny Higurashi

As Johnny got up, Shauna went behind him to try and grab him when he suddenly turned around and tried to punch her. The girl managed to dodge the blow but only just barely. She knew he was going to be tough until the end and had to wear him down. Otherwise he'd just keep coming at her.

Shauna responded with a kick of her own straight to Johnny's midsection.

Johnny grunted inwardly when he felt himself sail forward, missing his mark. When she spun her kick up, he felt it slam into his midsection and it put him back down to his knees as he clutched his side. "S-Shit." He growled out.

After managing to get Johnny back to his knees, Shauna grabbed onto his hair and pulled him between her thighs. She squeezed them tightly around his head to keep him in place. If he was going to use power over her, then she was going to respond with power as well. The redhead leaned over and wrapped her arms around Johnny's waist. With all her might, she tried to pull his lower body straight up into a pile driver position. It took a lot of effort with her hurting back, though, and she wasn't sure if she'd even be able to lift him.

Johnny groaned as he felt his hair tugged and when he was pushed between her creamy thighs, He blushed as he was enclosed by the tight, yet smooth legs. He dug his fingers into her thighs as he tried to test her grip but the steely thighs kept him in place. However, when he felt her bend over, indicated by the sudden pillowy feeling pressing against his back, he understood what she was trying to go for.

That wasn't something he was going to let happen. Johnny was pretty good at dead lifting and the kick, although it had hurt, hadn't been anything crippling. So as she leaned forward, Johnny merely stood up. Even with her weight, she was easy to lift, Johnny used to lifting close to twice as much as her. If he had her off the ground, it would be unlikely that she could keep him from just straightening out to a standing position where she'd be left, essentially, dangling against his back. If Johnny could score that position, then all he would need to do was get the necessary grip to try and fling her back around and snap her to the ground so she slapped against the mat back first.

Shauna pulled with all her strength and normally that would have been enough to lift Johnny despite him being so much heavier. The Irish girl was strong and she more or less knew her limitations in that field. But she didn't know just as how strong Johnny was. The moment he lifted himself up, Shauna lost all her leverage and couldn't do anything about it. As he straightened up, she held on tightly to him unwilling to fall to the mat. She wasn't about to let go of him.

But Johnny had other plans. He grabbed onto her and bent over forward in a swinging motion. Shauna flipped over him and crashed onto the mat on her back with a grunt. As they landed, Shauna's head snapped back and she gripped onto it with both hands. She rolled to her side with a groan. These power moves were really taking the fight out of her. But she couldn't give up just yet, even if at that moment she was laying down at his feet.

Johnny let out a pant as he snapped her back onto the mat. That should keep her down, but he knew full well that everything else he had tried hadn't worked. He reached down, trying to reestablish a grip on Shauna's ankles. There was something else he could do that would definitely put more strain on her already battered back, if not make her submit altogether. If Johnny could get a firm grip on her ankles, he would try and twist Shauna around onto her chest in hopes of locking her into a hard Boston crab.

Shauna kicked around at first when she felt Johnny trying to grab onto her feet. Even dazed, she knew only bad things could come from that. Despite her efforts, though, he seized control of her ankles and twisted her onto her front. He pulled back on both her legs in a Boston crab submission hold much to the dismay of Shauna. At first, the redhead screamed but she pulled herself together and suppressed the noise down to a pained groan. Her back was already in rough shape from all the slams and that one brutal fall from the turnbuckle really pushed it into a new level of pain.

The girl tried twisting and turning but Johnny was too much bigger than her to just break free from his grasp. She looked up and saw the ropes not too far away. With all her strength, she tried to crawl closer to them with Johnny in tow. Everytime she moved, it only made her back hurt worse. Nevertheless, she was determined to make it and make Johnny break the hold.

Johnny wrenched the hold hard until he felt like he was almost sitting on her back. What he needed to have her do was submit, but it seemed like Shauna wasn't going to quit. As he suddenly felt himself shuffling backwards, he turned his head and looked at Shauna. "G-Gve up, dammit." He growled to her. "You're gonna end up seriously hurtin yourself." He said as he grunted and tried to pull back even harder, his face reddening from strain. Still, if the girl could make it to the ropes, then he felt she earned it. It wasn't going to stop him from laying into her. Johnny thought the girl must be a little touched in the head for trying to endure all this punishment.

Shauna's back hurt more and more as she forced herself closer to the ropes. Finally, with one last and heroic lunge, the redhead managed to grab the ropes with her right hand. The referee girl immediately told Johnny to release the hold. The girl gripped the ropes with all her might, fully intending to pull herself free and continue to roll to the outside of the ring when Johnny released her. Her back was in a lot of pain and she really needed a break from it. She wasn't going to give up just yet. That wasn't in her nature. But she did know when she needed a break to regain her strength.

Johnny kept an eye on Shauna as she pulled herself and Johnny like a slow moving caravan towards the ropes. When she clutched the bottom rope finally, Johnny stood up and let her go. He turned and stepped away, expecting her to take her time getting up. Instead he watched as she oozed herself out intot he outside area once more. Johnny shook his head. The girl must have been punch drunk. This certainly seemed like a worse proposition for the Irish lass than taking an "extra long time" standing up from the break.

Johnny slipped through the ropes and hopped down after her. As she crawled away, Johnny lifted up his hands and attempted to slap one of his palms down hard on her back while the other reached for her long red locks. If he could seize her, he would try and swing her towards the steel steps, trying to once again make her back take the brunt of the impact.
