Clover Rose vs Mary Clarison!

Clover refusal to give up earns her the respect and admiration of the crowd but also the pity from the very one that has her in this hold, Mary Clarison. As she begged Clover to give up while tightening up the hold. While Clover did find it admirable she doesn't want to hurt her badly and liked Mary even more because of it. But couldn't feel a bit insulted that was she being begged to give up when the match has only begun.

"Wh...While...I can...understand....Y-you really don't...wanna hurt anyone badly...But I think...you're in....the wrong line of work...if you don't wanna hurt anyone...And besides....this match has just begun and it's....far too earlier from me to give up.....!" Clover said between grunts of struggles while trying to pry Mary's arms away from her neck but isn't getting much success.

Mary had the sleeperhold locked on tight, and she could feel that Clover was losing energy rather quickly. Mary's grip was powerful and tight, almost like a snake wrapped around its pray. Then Clover told her how she felt about this.

"I'm sorry Clover, but if you want this match to go longer, get out of my sleeperhold." Mary said while tightening on the Sleeperhold further.

"Yeah...I guess I should be...more focus on that huh?...ha ha..." Clover chuckles a bit before rolling onto her stomach, then pushing up to all fours, next gets on her knees, before working up the strength to get up on her feet and then slowly started walking towards the ropes, hoping she could a rope break and make her opponent release the hold!

Mary could feel her opponent moving. She knew this was probably going to happen , it being so early in the match. Mary just locked on the Sleeper as long as she could till Clover grabbed the ropes. As soon as she did, Mary immediately let go, not giving the referee a chance to count her out.

Mary got back up to her feet, and put her hands on her knees, as she waited for Clover to get back up on her feet, ready to continue the match.

Even though she was in a tight sleeper hold! Somehow Clover found the strength to get up to her feet and walk to the ropes while carrying Mary on her back, and grabbing the ropes for a rope break! Luckily for Clover, while most would have held on to the hold until they were dangerous to the count five to cause a bit more damage. Mary instantly let her go and backed away from her.

Clover let out a sigh of relief after finally getting free from the hold but although it still left its damages as Clover would soon fall down to her knees with her hand still holding onto the rope and panting a bit heavily. But lucky again for her, it seems her opponent wasn't attacking or trying to get off the ropes despite her vulnerable position. So Clover took this opportunity to rest and recover for her strength for a few moments before getting slowly up to her feet again, turning around, and facing Mary, who was already back up to her feet. Clover lets go of the ropes and proceed to head towards Mary for round two!

Mary is never one for fighting dirty, or for causing her opponent excessive amounts of pain and suffering. With how brutal her submission holds can feel, Mary has always been worried about taking them a little too far. She always lets go as soon as the referee asks her too. Surely enough, she walked away from Clover, willing to give her fellow blue leotard wearing opponent a breather.

When she recovered. she put her hands in a grappling position, similar to the typical stance of a collegiate wrestler. It was almost an invitation from Mary asking Clover to grapple with her.

If Clover decided to accept the grapple, Mary would quickly try to wrap her hands around Clover's cranium, and lock her in  a Side Headlock, pulling her head close to Mary's chest.

If she does anything else, Mary would not have a response.
