Lilliana Reynolds Vs. Atalante Pallas

The speed of Atalante did seem to take Lilliana off guard, as she tackled her down with that spear to her gut, though it seemed as if the Captain was quite resilient, taking the brunt of the spear with stride as she was knocked down onto her back but she managed to wrap her arms around the head of the Grecian. Wincing out a bit as she was locked into that Guillotine hold, ending up on top of Lilliana.

Those legs then snapped around her waist and with it Atalante would release a grunt, the green-blonde woman would move her hands up to grab at Lilliana's arm, trying to pry it off of her neck as she could already feel that same amazing power that Lilliana had used against her in the test of strength, those legs squeezing harshly at her waist.

Lilliana had managed to get the most out of a situation that looked really dire for her, drawing the disadvantage away. Being honest, Atalante showed quite the prowess and speed when she launched her body at the American in a quick and powerful spear, but Cap still had a lot of endurance in her, enough to withstand the hit and use the momentum to catch her rival’s head in a guillotine chokehold.

No matter that Lilliana was the woman in the lower position while both of them were lying on the mat, the one with a predicament on her hands was the Greek, as the guillotine was a very draining kind of move, one of Lilliana’s favorites. If not broken in time it can render even the strongest of oponents out of commission after just some time of oxygen deprivation.

But Atalante wouldn’t go down that easily, the Greek woman grabbing Lilliana’s arms and trying to pry them open. Against a weaker rival Lilliana would have managed to maintain the hold for some more time, but the cat-eared woman was a powerful rival. After some struggling Cap noticed her grip faltering. Seeing no point in keeping the guillotine locked she gave up that part of the hold while still squeezing Atalante with her legs, using her now free arms to protect herself against any upcoming strike.

Atalante would struggle and shifts about a bit as her hands would grab at that arm of her Lilliana as she struggled to free it from the grip of said arm, struggling and squeezing her hands tightly around the limb as she would start to pry that arm off of her head, after a bit of a difficult time doing so, it finally worked!

Gasping out and pulling her head up, now all she had to contend with was the legs of Lilliana which squeezed tightly upon her waist. Gritting her teeth as she felt the pain on her body...

Deciding to take a hold of Lilliana's shoulders, forgoing any strikes. Atalante would use her own strong legs as she placed her soles on the canvas and would lift the woman off of the mat! Rising to a full stand before she'd try and drop forward and slam Lilliana down on her back, trying to go for a makeshift spinebuster type move in the hopes that it would coax Lilliana to release her waist.

A guillotine chokehold was a quite draining movement, and Lilliana was satisfied she was able to lock it even if it lasted a very short time. She knew that no matter what that kind of movements took their toll on the rival’s body, and as the match would stretch over time there should be a moment in which she would take the fruit that particular movement bore. But for the moment the American was just trying her best to maintain her legs wrapped around Atalante’s waist, squeezing as best as she could to keep softening her rival.

But Atalante was a true fighter and wasn’t willing to accept that treatment without some retaliation. The first thing the Greek did was securing Lilliana’s shoulders to prevent her from striking further. Then, with a remarkable display of strength and pain tolerance, Atalante pushed with her legs in order to lift her body and carry her rival all along with her!

When Lilliana noticed her back not being against the floor her eyes widened in surprise as she had an idea of what was coming for her. She tried her best to clench her muscles and her teeth, to prepare for the upcoming hit against the mat. But when it happened even the remarkably resilient Lilliana had to admit it was a brilliant move coming from Atalante. The former soldier unwrapped her legs as soon as she hit the mat and pain coursed all over her lower back, her body rolling over and her hands cupping her pained back as she suffered the outcome of the move. The worst part of it was that while she was relenting her rival would be completely free, the tables turned once more.

Atalante used primarily her great leg strength to haul Lilliana up off of the floor and then with a deep breath taken she'd throw her down flat on her back, the impact was enough to get the crowd to cheer as the Huntress slammed down the Captain into the canvas. She would pant out a bit once those legs unwrapped from her waist and fell off of her, watching the pained Lilliana for a moment.

Though after a moment of reprieve she would quickly try and lean forward, looking to slip up next to Lilliana's head, scurrying with catlike agility as she'd then try and grab a hold of that head, raising it off of the canvas a bit before she'd try and lock her strong legs around that head of Lilliana's head. Trying to lock in a scissor hold of her own, in this case a headscissor, as the former sprinter would try and use her own strong limbs to try and crush the resistance out of Lilliana's skull.

Atalante was proving to be a much more than worthy opponent. The Greek was strong in her strikes, fast in her advances and capable of cunning and inventive strategizing, a challenger Lilliana was very happy to face since unlike her debut bout this match was actually driven by the rules of fair play and sportswomanship. Both wrestlers were exploring the best way to overpower the rival, but up to that moment the combat had been pretty even, to delight of the public who was happy with the show so far.

Lilliana was also feeling good with this fight. No matter the final outcome, the American felt lucky to have met someone so close to her level, pushing her beyond her comfort zone and taking her to the limit of her abilities. When Atalante showed her prowess and outsmarted Lilliana in order to break free she just had to admit her rival's talent.

But getting freed from Lilliana's guillotine wouldn't be the end of it as the American's eyes widened in surprise when her head got trapped in between Atalante's legs in a headscissors! Lilliana coughed from the sudden squeezing, her lungs running out of axygen fast. This was bad, she had to use these first seconds before she would start feeling tired and became unavaliable of escaping. She would try to get her arm between her rival's legs in order to get some leverage and try to pry them open, her coughs and gasps for air becoming more frequent as seconds passed by.

Atalante was very impressed with Lilliana so far, she was a talented woman with a strong build and seemed to have very a very strong foundation as a fighter. Already she was proving herself to be a quite the challenge, and much like those old Greek heroes she was often said to be a second coming of... Atalante strove to overcome great challenges.

Sliding up with a certain agility and grabbing a hold of the brunette's head, raising it up off of the canvas just enough for Atalante to snap her lethal legs around that cranium. She would quickly squeeze, flexing the well toned legs of hers. Atalante was far from a big woman, she was built lean...but underneath that lean build was well toned muscles, strength concealed by economy of size.

As those legs started to squeeze the contours of of her thigh muscles could more clearly be seen. Lilliana tried to slide her hand in between those legs of hers, the quick thinking of Lilliana managed to get that arm up before Atalante was able to fully close her legs tight around that head, even so the green-blond Grecian would try and use her incredible leg strength to keep tightening as Lilliana fought against.

" Let me know if it gets too to be too much for you." Atalante would let in a vaguely cocky tone.

Sportswomanship, friendly but fierce competition, good fighting thrill and a worthy rival against who anything could happen. It was a mix made in heavens for what it was feeling like a wonderful match for Lilliana. She was getting more and more into it, her will focusing as she was in body and mind into the fight, searching for new strategies while trying her best to find that way to overpower her rival and get the advantage. It was a match more than worth having, and it was thanks to her rival’s attitude. Yes, Lilliana felt that she could definitely become friends with that woman. She had a very well toned body and athletic physique combined with polite manners with just a fun speck of tease, definitely a fun rival.

But Lilliana didn’t have the luxury of time to think all those things as she was pressured to put an end to her rival’s scissoring to her neck before it was too late and she wouldn’t be able to muster the strength to do so. Atalante’s legs were well toned and her muscles tensed when she squeezed Lilliana’s neck, the American’s face mashing against her rival inner thighs as she pawed in search for the smallest spot she could use as a leverage. Even if Atalante manageg to cross her legs in order to apply more strength to the hold, Lilliana was successful in getting her hand in between them, so she started her work to undo her rival’s scissor, using all of her strength and putting her weight as well in order to reach that end. “It won’t be that easy for you… uuuunnnngggh”

Lilliana's struggles were proving to become quite a difficult thing to ignore, Atalante's strong legs did their job as she tried to continue to squeeze the woman's head towards a submission or at least to greatly weaken the woman. However it seemed as if Lilliana was as tenacious and tough that Atalante had thought she was.

As Lilliana kept struggling, it wouldn't be too long before Atalante figured that she couldn't defeat her this early. The brunette was without a doubt a tough competitor and Atalante would give her credit for that. Trying to unwrap her legs from Lilliana's head and rolling away, pushing herself up to her feet and whipping her hair back.

" I'd hope not. I'm not here for an easy challenge."

Up to that point the match had been a very even thing, both wrestlers’ strength being in similar relative levels. Anything could happen in that match and the crowd knew that as it roared and cheered for their favorite fighter in an enthusiastic manner. Both Lilliana and Atalante appeared to have noticed that, some good chemistry brewing between them, the one that made the real difference between a forgettable combat and a remarkable one. And not only that, seeing as their personalities worked on the same page, Lilliana was sure that she could find a friend and someone to push her abilities to the limit in her current rival.

But even with all those positive thoughts on her mind Lilliana wanted a win, and the latest events in the match gave Atalante the edge as she was squeezing the life out of the American. Showing her prowess and strength of will Lilliana managed to get her hands between Atalante’s legs. She was starting to feel lightheaded, but the Greek found herself unable to keep going with the scissors and Lilliana was freed.

Getting some mouthfuls of fresh air to celebrate, Lilliana almost chokes on the sudden oxygen surplus. She gazed at her rival as she rolled over, a smirk on her face as she stood on her feet once more. “You are in for a challenge. I like it. Bring it, Atalante.”, she said while signaling her rival to come at her.
