Sayuri vs Valkoinen

Sayuri's eyes bulged and she let out a hoarse cough as her throat was punched by the mercenary. She stumbled off of Valkoinen's foot clutching her neck. Sayur had taken a fair amount of punishment there in her last match, and it was still quite sore. Ugh...what is it with these people and throats? she thought. She straightened herself up again, and would ready herself against Valkoinen again.

Valkoinen also stumbled back, dazed momentarily by the twin blows to the skull. Crouching she let out a soft sigh and narrowed her eyes. She brought her fists up and looked up and down Sayuri's body and began to make a circling motion around Sayuri. Advancing once more, she kept one hand up and tried to aim a forearm strike into Sayuri's stomach/side.

Sayuri slowly circled with Valkoinen, watching her hands for any suspicious movements with the skilled eyes of a ninja. When Valkionen moved, so did Sayuri, grabbing the elbow attack and then swiftly twisting her arm behind her back. She'd then slip behind the Fin, and wrap her arm around her throat in a chokehold as well.

Valkoinen's jaw shifted sligtly when her arm was grabbed. It wasn't entirey unexpected. As she felt Sayuri begin to pull her arm aeound, She spread her legs a bit and tried to throw her free elbow back into Sayuri's face.

Sayuri's progress with her grapple was interupted when Valkoinen shifter her weight, and Sayuri's eyes widened when the second elbow came at her. She reacted quickly though, her second arm coming up to catch the blow, now holding both on the merc's limbs. Moving quickly, Sayuri would cross both of Valkionen's arms, turned her back on her, and tried to use her arms to flip the smaller girl over her shoulder.

Valkoinen's eyes widened slightly when her elbow was caught and her arms pulled behing her back. Sauyuri was pretty good but Valkoinen didn't mind. She would show her the strength of the combined might or the Finnish Spec Ops, the KGB training and the torture she endured and make her earn everything. Sayuri would be able to execute her throw if she could withstand Val throwing her headback to try and slam it intotthe ninja's nose or face

Sayuri let out a pained grunt as Valkoinen's head slammed into her face, but it would not stop her from completing the throw. As a ninja, Sayuri was trained to deal with all types of pain, and although she had not yet completed her training she could handle a simple headbutt.

After flipping the small girl Sayuri would keep hold of Valkoinen's arms afterwards. She'd then let one go, and quickly wrap her legs around the merc's neck and arm, putting her in a kind of backwards triangle choke.

Valkoinen's eyes widened as she was flipped. She grunted when shelanded and felt herselfing u in chke hold. Gritting her teeth, she tried not to squirm and attemptedf to use her free hat and strike at Sayuri's already attacked knee to try and get trelease th hold.

Sayuri wrenched the hold in, her legs ever tightening around the mercenary's neck. If she had her way, she would have choked out Valkoinen then and there, but the Fin had other plans. She winced as her already hurt knee started to get hammered upon, and she knew she couldn't keep the hold in for long. After some prolonged squeezing and hitting on Valkoinen's part, Sayuri would release the girl and roll away from her. She would wait for Valkoinen to rise again, and then she'd attack, her middle and index fingers stabbing like a knife straight into Valkoinen's kidney.

When the hold was released, Valkoinen rolled away, panting softly from the choke. From her position on her hands and knees, she couldn't counter, but she tried to push herself forward, knowing she might drive herself into the attack to try and reach out and wrap her arms and legs around Sayuri's injured leg. "Nnnn..." She growled, clenching her teeth at the pain. She would try and once more bend and twist Sayuri's leg painfully
