Re: Getting ready for the royale (For Wamts)

Eliza was busy just....looking at the mat, what just happened there? Lia's move was just...blink and you missed it. And Eliza was paying the price right about....now.

"Wahh!" Eliza yelped out as she was tackled to the ground in a rather reckless fashion. Her head connecting with the ring mat, making her face wince in pain and force her eyes closed.

"Ooooo..." Ms Harenwood groaned out, she was stunned for the time being. Enough for Lia to do whatever she intended to do, it was clear that Eliza needed to sharpen up here.

"Oww..." That was kinda not safe. For both girls, Lia's head throbbed a little, but it was clear that Eliza had suffered the brunt of the attack. Well, no time to take a break now, Lia got up, making a grab for Eliza's legs. "Sorry if it hurts, but gotta practice everything!" She pulled up on the leg, grabbing the foot with her other hand and tried to get Eliza into an ankle lock!

Not too hard of course... Lia didn't ACTUALLY want to get either of them hurt.

Eliza's eyes bugged out their sockets, she felt one of her legs rising up into the air. The shift in it forced the ballroom girl onto her back, she had heard of this hold before. But had yet to encounter it, the ankle lock. It could certainly be a dangerous move for her, considering that 80% of Ms Harenwood's moves were based with her legs.

But Eliza did know how to do a few things with her hands too, so the girl placed her upper chest up with her hands. And would start to attempt to inch her way forward, she wasn't paying much attention to the fact that Lia didn't have the hold applied as well as it could have been. But it was still enough to put the ballroom girl on notice.

She started pulling herself forward, but Lia would pull back, to keep her in place, away from the ropes. Of course, it was a bit awkward for Lia too, this was one of the first times she'd put this hold on anyone, even in a sparring session, so she certainly didn't have a great hold of Eliza's foot, and the heel was starting to slip loose without Lia noticing.

Deus001 wrote:Eliza grunted out, the ropes being moved further from her. Ms Harenwood had the feeling Lia would do that, and she knew that if Lia worked on her legs. Then it could soon become problematic for the regal girl, this called for some fancy footwork. And Eliza was feeling daring.

Moving on her hands, so that Eliza would do a handstand on them. She could feel the hold being somewhat loose, and Eliza had a leg that was free. So Ms Harenwood would use her free leg to strike at Lia's hands, to free her held leg and walk forward on her hands briefly before rolling forward. She hoped to gain some distance from the albino girl before doing anything else.

TheWamts wrote:Ok, Lia seriously needed to keep in mind that Eliza was very very nimble. Nimble enough to pull of a handstand in a position like this, and then kick her hands off her legs. "Oowww... nice move!" That was really impressive, and it probably wasn't even that big a deal for a dancer like the ballroom girl.

Lia wouldn't chase after Eliza, she was pretty sure that she couldn't catch her if she tried anyways. Instead, she'd just wait near the centre for Eliza's elegant counterattack.

Deus001 wrote:Eliza had finished her moving handstand and roll combo away from Lia, so long as Eliza had one leg free she could be counted on doing some fancy acrobatics. Years of ballet training had allowed her to perform those feats of dexterity, and the ring was her ballroom.

Ms Harenwood turned around and faced Lia after escaping, allowing a small smile on her regal face. And intended to try and bring the attack to the albino girl. Eliza would stand up and then take a few steps forward, before suddenly flipping backwards on her hands. Which allowed her legs to bounce off the ropes.

After performing this Eliza would go along with the motion, as she stood back up the momentum allowed her to go into a cartwheel. After standing up from that she'd have her back to Lia and would try to fire out an elbow to her akin to Tajiri.

Eliza was so agile, Lia couldn't help but just be impressed, watching Eliza's acrobatics. The dancer neatly backflipped, catching the ropes with her feet and propelling herself with the doubled momentum, cartwheeling into the impressed Lia.

If only she had been more focused on herself - Eliza bounced onto her feet, bringing an elbow to Lia. "A-agh!" the albino immediately reached around, trying to catch Eliza's elbow in her hand to prevent another such attack.

Eliza didn't notice that Lia had just stood there, awestruck with her dynamic moves. It was like fluid poetry that was moving, no wonder she was nicknamed Tension's classiest girl. And well the ring was her ballroom.

Ms Harenwood had crashed into Lia with her flying back jumping elbow attack, and the pair had been knocked down with the ensuing momentum. And Lia had suddenly come back into Earth, as she had grabbed hold of Eliza's elbow.

No doubt trying to keep the dancing passion grounded, the ground game wasn't Eliza's forte. She knew a few submissions but not much else, so Ms Harenwood would try to scramble out of Lia's grasp because if she didn't then the albino could gain the advantage.

If she could keep Eliza down, Lia's chances would be a lot better, and Eliza knew it too. Ideally, she'd put Eliza in some hold just now, but she was struggling too much, and getting a better handle on her nimble sparring partner was proving impossible.

With Eliza slipping out of her grip anyways, Lia let go, holding on would be pointless, there wasn't anything she could do with the grip anyways. Instead, Lia tried to get on top of Eliza before she could get onto her feet, if could keep Eliza down on the mats, the snowy-haired Canadian would definitely have this!

Eliza was used to having a tempo in battle, ingrained in her from years of dancing lessons. And when it just stopped was when she could flounder, lose the pace of the fight and go on defence. Defence was one weak part of the dancing passion, even more so on the ground. If it was about strikes or standing grapples, then Eliza could often use her agility to deal with the threat and respond swiftly.

But Lia had just gotten onto the chink in the ballet girl's armour, and that was not good for the dancing passion. Eliza thought she could get away in time, only to be cut off by Lia mounting atop her. The ballroom girl fell back to the mat with a resounding thumping noise, in which Eliza made a grunting noise in response.

"D..damm." Eliza muttered out, she couldn't much right now at this point but try to brace herself for what could come next.

Lia finally managed to get Eliza down, and now was her time to strike! With her legs on each side, Lia would wrap her arms around the back of Eliza's head, pulling her face into her body. Yes, it was an embarrassing move, but there weren't exactly many other options she had short of straight up hitting Eliza's face, which was not something she planned on doing.

Squishing the girls face against her stomach, Lia hoped to just drain and outlast Eliza from here on out.

Eliza groaned out as she was being kept pinned down, Lia had her in an interesting position. Ms Harenwood tried to bring her legs up, but Lia's head was out of range for her deadly swords. The dancing passion had an idea of what Ms Harrison was attempting, to no doubt wear out the British aristocrat.

Ms Harenwood had been sweating a bit, enhancing her features more. Eliza pounded her legs briefly on the mat as she thought of a plan, that's when it hit her. It was desperate but Ms Harenwood couldn't think of anything else at the moment.

Eliza rotated her arms so that her palms were on the mat, and at the same time got her legs so that the soles of her feet were grounded. And with that Eliza tried to push upwards into Lia, using her flexible body. If Lia could put a stop to it though then she might be able to put the ballroom girl down.
