Battle of the Redheads: Akiko Takamiya vs. Volcanica (for k0hryuu)

"Nngh...confound it..." Volcanica moaned out as she rubbed her own neck and chin from that hold earlier. She did manage to escape for the moment, but she didn't get out without pain. But hey, you don't feel pain, you're hardly moving forward in life...or something like that.

All Volcanica needed was a few brief moments of recovery before standing back up straight (though with a little rubbing on her neck). As she got to her fighting stance and started walking forward to Akiko, she would say, "OK. That does it! Now, I'm really fired up! As soon as I get my hands on you, you're going to bloody burn down like Shakespeare's Globe Theatre!"

She wasn't really familiar with that reference, but Akiko still had a pretty good idea of what it meant. Still, given Volcanica's serious demeanor seemed to have cracked, it meant she had managed to deal some good damage, plus the larger girl would probably be acting a bit more sloppy and reckless now.

"So scary~" Akiko chuckled, attempting to goad Volcanica on, "Why don't you come and try it?"

"Don't mind if I do," says Volcanica as she kept getting closer and closer to Akiko. Her fingers curled back and forth as she was eager to get at the locks of the other redhead. She aims to grab Akiko's hair and start to punch her in the face before throwing her around a bit.

But given how angry she is, it might even work against her. Akiko may have an open window of opportunity if she can time another attack just right.

As expected, Volcanica's intentions were pretty transparent, and fortunately Akiko's fairly short hair was easy to keep out of reach. Leaning her body back to evade the larger girl's grasp, Akiko grinned cheekily as she simultaneously snapped her leg forward and up, hoping to stop Volcanica cold with a surprise low blow.

Volcanica was trying to reach for Akiko's hair to pull, unfortunately and unlike her own, it was shorter and it was hard to even grab hold. She was so focused on getting to the hair that she didn't see her opponent's leg coming up and hit her right between the legs! "AAAAUGH!!" the Brit cried out in pain as she immediately doubled over to grab at that area.

Volcanica is now vulnerable for another attack and it won't be pretty coming from Akiko.

Akiko grinned cheekily, having so easily lured Volcanica into that trap. "Oops, sorry did that hurt?" Dirty as it may have been, there were no rules, and she had to make up for her physical disadvantage some way or another. Looking to follow up quickly, as no doubt the bigger red-head would be very displeased, Akiko grabbed her by the hair as she was hunched over and brought her knee upwards towards Volcanica's face.

Volcanica was still holding her stomach and huffed in and out to try and regain some air when Akiko went forward to grab her by the hair. She cringed and gritted her teeth in pain from the feeling, but that wasn't the only thing she was about to feel. "ARGH!" grunted the fiery redhead as she got kneed to her face.

Volcanica wanted to get out, but as of now, she can't focus and still in Akiko's grip.

Still holding Volcanica by her long, blazing locks, Akiko spun around, attempting to fling the larger woman to the ground. If successful, and with Volcanica hopefully still reeling from the blow, the tricky red-head would go for another ankle lock, hoping to put some more strain on the same leg she had earlier.

Volcanica exerted a few cries in pain as she was flung to the ground and landed quite harshly on the mat. She held her head in pain from all that hair pulling, but Akiko just wasn't done yet. The flaming-haired girl would find this out when she suddenly felt the same leg being taken and twisted in another ankle lock. "NNNNNNGGHH!!!" Volcanica groaned through her teeth as she clenched her fists in trying to resist tapping out. But with the pain now added to the same leg, trying to go for a rope break was becoming more difficult.

Tightening her hold, Akiko did her best to maintain the ankle lock. Volcanica outclassed her pretty handily in terms of physical strength, and so Akiko needed to do what she could to even up the score. Relying on dirty tricks was a bit of a specialty of hers, after all. "If it's getting rough, feel free to submit!" Akiko goaded, hoping to keep Volcanica angry and unfocused.
