Onigashima vs. Novae - Wrestling with the Stars

Hauling another human being around wasn’t the easiest thing for a lightweight like Tatiana to do, doubly so when said human being actively didn’t want to be hauled. This was a special case, though. If she could get Yukari into their corner, she and Valerie could work away on her and wear her down to a nub, no problem. They had some nifty tag team moves that they were eager to debut, and pulling off one could’ve been the key to clenching the match.

Just a little further, and-

”Whoawhoa!” Tatiana squeaked out as she was hauled into the air, taken off her feet with a sudden surge in strength. Confused, she the only thing she could think to do in such a situation and went into a panicking fit, squirming about, kicking her leg, trying to elbow Yukari in the back of her head before she got tipped over and gravity had its way.

Lifting Tatiana up, Yukari planned to slam her down into the mat, but the lightweight managed to act fast and brought her elbow to the back of her head, staggering her. "Augh!!" This, in addition to Tatiana squirming in her arms, forced Yukari to let go of her as she would try to get rid of the pain from the elbow attack. But she didn't plan to let go of Tatiana just like that. As she was forced to let her opponent free from her grasp, she would make sure to drop her, hoping that Tatiana would land harshly onto the mat.

Shaking her head, Yukari would then look down on Tatiana considering her next option. She planned to grab Tatiana by her head, making sure to get her on her feet so that she could have her doubling over in front of her. In that position, the blue demon would try to drive her elbow into the back of Tatiana's head, bringing her down face first into the mat.

So, that worked. And it didn’t work.

It worked in the sense that Tatiana’s elbows found their mark and crashed down on Yukari’s head, clearly having some effect and hurting her...just not enough. Not nearly enough to make her stop what she was trying to do. Which meant that Tatiana’s path would lead away from her sister, away from salvation, and end up with her shoulders crashing into the mat.

She hit hard, less than graceful, and the impact left her shaking on the floor. Not for long, though as Yukari was quick to haul her up, pull her back to her feet...only to hammer her back down with an elbow a moment later.

This was the one that Belle had warned her about, right? Yeah, that figured.

Down, but not out - not yet - Tatiana rolled over after the hit and started to push her way back, grabbing the ropes for support. If she was going to fight her way out of this, she needed to be on her feet at the very least.11

Yukari drove her elbow into the back of of Tatiana's head, but it seemed that it wasn't enough to keep her down for long as Tatiana kept moving towards the ropes before she grabbed them for support. Yukari herself needed to recover first from the hit to her head earlier, but seeing that Tatiana was still there, she had to do something about this.

So, she would let Tatiana get herself back up, using the ropes to pull herself up. Once she was on her feet, that would be the moment when Yukari made her move as she would suddenly rush in, arm extended out as she hoped to nail her arm right into her opponent's head, hoping that she sheer impact would send Tatiana over the top rope and tumbling out of the ring and onto the barely padded floor outside.

Tatiana’s plan was a simple one. She aimed to get up to her feet, then make her way to Valerie and let her deal with the blue-bruiser. Easy, right? It sounded so easy. Even winded, she was still faster than this woman, could get around her, make the tag, get the rest she needed.

The main problem, though, was the fact that she’d rolled to the wrong end of the ring, and she had about twelve or so feet between her and her sister, with one extremely riled up Oni between them. That short distance seemed pretty far when you looked at it like that.

She was just starting to contemplate her next move when Yukari decided it for her, barreling her way with arm outstretched. An easy move to telegraph, and Tatiana would be able to dodge it easy under ideal circumstances...but the pain she was dealing with no was anything but ideal.

Tatiana went flopping over the ropes with an undignified squawk, tumbling to the floor below. She managed to land on her feet, but she only wound up staying there for a moment before she collapsed, flopping to the floor with her hair splayed all about.

Sending Tatiana out of the ring, Yukari saw her opponent outside, landing on her feet before falling down onto the barely padded floor outside the ring. With Tatiana outside the ring, the referee started counting for the ring out, and Yukari could just leave her outside, letting her be counted out so that the Onigashima could emerge victorious in this match.

But, Yukari decided against it, thinking that such a win wouldn't be quite as thrilling. So, after the referee counted up to two, the blue demon would slip out of the ropes, standing on the apron before jumping down onto the floor. With Yukari outside the ring, the referee started back to one.

Coming over to the downed Tatiana, Yukari would bend down, grabbing her by her head to pull her up. Smiling at her, she would then bring one arm between Tatiana's legs while her other arm would be draped over her shoulder so that she could lift her up, scooping her up and turning around in order to slam her down into the floor with a scoop slam!

Belle had told her to be careful, told her to watch out for the blue one, and yet, somehow, Tatiana still found herself in this position when all was said and done. Advice was only good if you used it.

She might’ve smacked her forehead, but she frankly didn’t need any more pain to deal with at the moment. She had more than enough to go around, and if the sound of approaching feet was anything to go by, there was still more coming her way.

Tatiana looked up in time to see Yukari reaching over to grab her, but not in time to actually do anything to stop it. She was lifted up with ease, and no amount of her squirming could get her free. ”Hey, come on, not on the floor, not on the-”

Right of the floor. Tatiana came down flat on her back and sat up right away, arching her back and hissing at her burning spine. She couldn't much besides that, either, and she got the impression that Yukari wouldn’t be the type to let that free time go unpunished.

The next minute or so was not going to be fun, she could see that coming.

Slamming Tatiana into the floor with a scoop slam, Yukari stood over her for a moment as she basked in the cheers of the crowd. Smiling, she would bend down to grab Tatiana's body, pulling her back up as she would then press her back against the ring apron. At the same time, the referee had already counted up to four, and was about to reach five. Yukari thought that she still had some time left to spend outside the ring before returning inside.

Now having Tatiana against the apron, Yukari would then try to club her forearm into her chest twice, each smack stiff and nasty-looking. She wanted to weaken her opponent some more before she could push her back into the ring, bringing the match back inside the squared circle before reentering as well. The ref would stop counting as soon as the two of them returned into the ring where the match would continue.

Okay, so, getting hammered into the floor wasn’t fun, but Yukari would probably back off now, right? She’d hurt her, done her damage, and she’d likely go back into the ring now and make Tatiana crawl back inside, which she wasn’t looking forward to. But, fine.

Nope.

Instead, she kept the beating going, drilling Tatiana against the ring apron as the referee continued her count. Each blow hit with bone-cracking force, leaving the younger Siamko groaning and aching on the floor, all too pliant when her foe hauled her up and rolled her back into the ring.

Knowing the peril she was in, her play was obvious. The moment she was back inside, she started to crawl towards Valerie with outstretched arms, clawing her way across the mat as her sister reached out to meet her. She doubted Yukari would have the grace to let that happen undeterred, though…

Right after bringing Tatiana back into the ring, Yukari would also reenter the ring, looking to bring the fight back into the squared circle. After reentering the ring, Yukari saw that Tatiana was trying to move towards her sister, looking to tag her in. Yukari could just stop her and continue the beatings, but an idea came into her mind.

Rather than stopping Tatiana, Yukari decided to wait for her to tag Valerie in, crossing her arms under her breasts confidently while her eyes were focused on the opposite team.

Meanwhile, Shizuka just sighed. Sometimes, Yukari could display such arrogance, though she hoped that this wouldn't bite her in the ass later.
