Re: Honor Among Ninjas! Akiko Hoshi vs. White Tigress (for dlamp)

This girl was becoming more intriguing by the minute. So far, Tigress has determined that Akiko is a ferocious fighter with great determination, but she could get distracted by her own emotions and thoughts very easily. This could be useful to her as the match progressed. At this point, Tigress would start crouch down and go on one hand as she was observing Akiko like the ferocious feline itself. She would growl as she started to circle around her to try and intimidate her.

After a few moments, Tigress attempted to charge again and tackle Akiko to the mat. If this worked, she would grab at one of her arms and let her own legs fall across Akiko's chest and hold her down while wrenching the arm for an arm bar.

Akiko had to admit Tigress's behaving was indeed intimidating, mostly catching her off guard by her change in behavior. She was even growling like a tiger. It really sent chills down Akiko's spine. Is she seriously...? She decided to try and shake it off. Even if Tigress was acting like an actual tiger now, it didn't chance the fact she was still a dangerous opponent.

After a bit of waiting, her opponent pounced at her (not literally though, thank god), probably seeing an opening to attack. Akiko was ready for her though, and sent her arm forward to strike Tigress with her palm and stop her momentum.

"AAAUGH!!" Tigress cried out when she received a palm strike after getting closer to attack herself. She stumbled a little after that, but she wasn't going to fall back on defense just yet. She still had good range to keep striking, so she had to come up with another strike on the fly. So, Tigress would attempt to sprint from her position and dive forward in hopes of tackling Akiko to the mat.

If this worked, she would try to add two quick punches to the face to daze her before a backflip bodyslam on the stomach.

Akiko had little time to celebrate her blow. Tigress wasn't as stunned from the palm strike as she had hoped, and bounced right back. Aki didn't have much chance to react as the woman came at her with a tackle and knocking her to the ground.

"Oof!" She immediately began to struggle and squirm to get Tigress off of her the moment she hit the ground, but two punches stunned her. "O-Ow..." Jeez, that hurt... Of course, the punches were nothing compared to the bodyslam that followed. "Aahh!" That had hurt, the impact had the kunoichi coughing out spittle and and it left her body sore and motionless as she tried to cope with the pain.

With Akiko feeling the effects of the punches and body slam, Tigress could see that this girl was pretty tough both offense AND defense. She believes that the problem is Akiko could get caught up in her own excitement that it distracts her, thus making her vulnerable. She must be able to retain focus and only celebrate after the battle is won (according to Tigress that is). And since Akiko is open again, Tigress would try to grab her by the left leg and start to spin to form the legs into a 4-shape.

If this worked and it connected with each other, Tigress would also try to lock the legs in and sit down for a Figure-4 leg lock.

With the pain of the bodyslam rendering Aki defenseless, she was easily caught in a figure four lock. She knew Tigress was doing something, but her mind was in too much of a daze to fight it off or even tell what it was. Once the pain and pressure started to shoot through her legs, it didn't take long for the pain to snap her out of her daze. "Gaaah!" Akiko's hands clawed at the canvas. There were no ropes to stop the pain, and she honestly didn't know how she could get out of this hold another way. Enduring it was her best bet for the moment while she frantically tried to think of a way to free herself. And her will was running out.

by Dynamo44 Sun Sep 13, 2015 7:45 pm

Tigress would see that the figure four leglock was working based on Akiko's frantic movements and screaming. It pains her to see another fighter go through this amount of torture, but this is part of the match, so what else could she do? And besides that, the figure four is a tough one to get out of, but simple if one knows how to reverse it.

Tigress then began to twist that ankle and foot one way and then the other as she included lifting up her own body to add more pressure. She would ask, "Speak quickly! Do you yield?" If Akiko didn't give up yet, Tigress would let her go again.

Akiko's cries only rang louder throughout the ring as Tigress increased the pressure. It was almost merciless how painful her opponent was making the hold. Still, Akiko did her best to endure. She wasn't going to let herself give up this soon. "N-No!" She shouted back in defiance, slamming her fist onto the canvas to try and cope with that the pain. Though she was being stubborn, she knew her limit was being reached.

by Dynamo44 Wed Sep 16, 2015 11:11 pm

White Tigress didn't need a second reminder to let her know how strong of will and mind Akiko was. Having gone through a few submissions already, it still impressed her that her opponent is still willing to continue in spite of her state. Tigress released Akiko from the hold and rolled away to stand back up. She would wait for her opponent to have her rest before returning to fight.

In the meantime, she would say, "You are fighting with honor...not many warriors can do so when they to this point."

by dlamp Sun Sep 27, 2015 8:47 pm

Akiko was thankful Tigress released her, but she couldn't help but feel a little played with. She had a good idea of the gap between them now in terms of skill, and Tigress was probably aware of it too. Still, she was really giving Akiko a chance at least put up a decent fight. This woman... she was much more noble than Aki expected. It was a little unnerving to be honest.

She remained on the mat for a little longer before staggering back to her feet, raising her fists to get into a fighting stance. Her breath was heavy, and her legs were really starting to hurt now. "... ..." Well it's not like I'm gonna cheat after you've been fighting fair all this time. She thought, resisting the urge to roll her eyes on the comment.
