The Wolf vs. The Amazon

Alaina groaned as she got up, seeing Manami stalking her. Alaina was also cautious as she circle back looking over Manami as well as getting a lay of the hallway. Alaina noticed something a bit further down behind Manami that she wanted to make use of and make us of it now! Alaina stepped in and reached out with both hands trying to grab two fistfuls of her opponents hair. With a loud cry Alaina spun around looking to get Manami airborne by a hair toss!

However, right behind Manami in the flight path if things went smoothly was a large vending machine! If Alaina was able to enact her plan without a hitch, she would be tossing Manami right into the hard edge of the machine back first or side first! There was room for error of course. Manami could get Alaina and Irish whip her into the machine or toss Alaina by the hair if she countered this somehow but this was a gamble Alaina had to take to get back in the fight and get on top in the matchup!

Somewhere in the back of her mind, Manami knew Aliana wouldn’t stand for all that punishment. Hanging back and allowing the Wolf Girl to plan her next move would only spell danger for her opponent. A former champion would have to know that better than anyone. So, it was no surprise to the wolf that the Amazon came forward to seize the opportunity. The woman was a tad faster this time around, and, despite the wolf’s preparation for it, the woman’s strength was simply too much to take head on. Had to think of a new strategy in the future.

The Amazon blew through her defenses and grabbed a couple clumps of hair, sending an intense pain through her scalp as she was sent flying through the air. Her flight came to an abrupt, painful stop when her back slammed into the corner of a vending machine.

“Gah!”

She fell to her hands and knees, coughing harshly against the impact until she noticed the machine rocking behind her. Some primal instinct lingering in the back of her mind took over, as the wolf deftly scrambled on all fours to the other side of the heavy machinery, giving it a firm push and sending it falling down towards Aliana!

Alaina saw Manami crash and crawl, and the machine rocking. As Manami pushed Alaina was moving her way and braced herself. She brought her arms up to catch the machine and guide it down in front of her, exerting a good deal of effort but managing to avoid getting smashed by the machinery! It landed with a loud crash in front of her rolling from her push and coming to a stop resting face up, the front glass cracked.

"Nice try Manami, but I have more in store for a little wretch like you!" Alaina said as she stepped over the machine to make her way to Manami. Alaina again grabbed Manami and this time gave her a hard shove against the wall behind her. The amazon stepped in to a few hard body punches on the wolf before sending a hard right to her jaw trying to daze her!

If successful Alaina bent down to grab Manami between eh legs and around the shoulder, intent on scooping her up and spinning around to slam her back down right on top of the glass front of the vending machine now laying on its back!

She caught that? She...caught that.

“Well, now…”

Manami had to admit, this was defying her expectations a tad. She’d expected the Amazon to go barrelling Not this time. She preferred to stay true to her namesake, catching the massive machine in her hands. That was perhaps a good, let’s see, five-hundred pounds she was handling? Certainly more considering it was freshly-stocked with condiments. Impressive. Most impressive. So much so that she’d forgotten to keep her eyes on the woman.

Aliana came barrelling towards her, slamming her into the wall and sending rough punches into the wolf’s gut. A bit of spittle left her mouth by the last one, but it was the shot to the jaw that gave the former champion the leverage she needed. Manami was lifted up, spun about, and sent right into the glass. The crack burst apart, sending jagged shards into her back and riddling her flesh with tiny, sensitive cuts. She felt the warm liquid running down her back.

Hm. Getting thrown around like this was coming across as just a tad insulting. She gritted her teeth behind pursed lips, intent on ripping the woman limb from limb. She placed her foot down, falling down to the floor, getting up to one knee, and-. Wait…

She gave her back a pinch, letting the blood flow down and into her palm.

“W-wait! Wait!’ She held up a hand towards the Amazon. “Please. Y-you’ve made your point. You are...too strong for me. I’ve never met someone with such resounding strength in my life. There is no equal. I...apologize for my actions...Aliana.”

Alright, that seemed to be enough. The blood pooled into her palm, making subtle waves with even the slightest shake. All she needed was a bit of time to steady her aim. Inhale, exhale. Focus. With one quick flick, Manami shot the vicious material straight towards the Amazon’s eyes. In the next instant, the Wolf Girl would shoot her leg out and pivot on her back foot, looking to take the woman down with a leg sweep!

Alaina saw Manami groaning and struggling up, and heard her words. Alaina raised an eyebrow and doubted their sincerity. She had good reason to do so, and this reason was quickly justified as Manami flicked blood at Alaina's face! The former nurse in her was appalled at this woman's clear disregard for the threat posed by blood borne pathogens, but more importantly in terms of the match Alaina was now paying attention to wiping off her face.

Her disregard of Manami proved to be her downfall as she was now falling backwards, landing hard on her back thanks to a well timed leg sweep! If Manami could get up from the slam onto a vending machine Alaina knew she could get up from this... even if her vision wasn't so great.

With the desperation evident in her movements, Alaina bang to sit up, trying to work her way to her feet before Manami could do anything else!

It was a tad surprising to her that Aliana had actually lowered her guard for that. As if a few shards of glass That being said, the slam into the vending machine wasn’t without its consequences. Her nerves were starting to feel the shock. If she were to apply a hold now, it would be torture on her own body. That wasn’t even factoring in her opponent’s incredible strength as the Amazon went to break free. No, this wasn’t the way to go.

She had to be smart about this.

“Idiot.” She snickered.

Manami would run forward as Aliana attempted to rise and shoot a knee strike straight towards the center of her face. Hopefully, that would plant her adversary back down on the ground, buying the wolf enough time to scamper away down the hall and towards the closest door. A closet. She’d throw the door open and disappear into the darkened space, slamming the door shut behind her, laying in wait in the shadows.

Alaina scrambled up, but her face was lower than usual, not to mention Manami's rush was fast and furious! Alaina took the knee to the face, howling as she covered her face in her hands and fell back like a slain giant. She landed hard on the concrete and groaned as she shook her head, trying to get up and unbar her vision. She saw Manami scamper away and around a corner.

A vengeful, angry amazon rose to her feet. She wanted to hammer Manami, pound her into the ground so when Alaina finished Manami wouldn't get getting up quickly, or at all. She would keep that damn wolf down. Alaina lumbered in pursuit, looking around and trying to figure out where Manami went. She kept her head swiveling back and forth, moving slowly as she began to seek out the wolf.

Manami kept her eyes trained on the door as she heard footsteps approach. Her fists were curled, ready to strike from the shadows at a moment's notice.

Her breathing steadied when she heard Aliana continue her search elsewhere. The wolf clicked her tongue, pulling the last shard of glass from her back. This was becoming incredibly frustrating. The Amazon was far stronger than she'd anticipated. Seems she was going to have to rely on more unconventional methods. Just as she thought that, her eyes aligned with something tucked away on a high shelf that made her smile from ear to ear.

Manami peaked out the door, looking left and right for her adversary. And there she was. Searching high and low like the bumbling oaf she was. Not bothering to close the door behind her, she’d traipse her way over to the Amazon, keeping the iron cylinder steady as she walked. The instant she managed to get close enough, an evil leer would appear across her face. Standing upright, she’d intentionally bang the metal as hard as possible against the adjacent wall, making the loudest sound imaginable to capture Aliana’s attention.

The moment the woman turned around, she would already be staring down the nozzle of a fire extinguisher held up by Manami. It would hold still for but an instant, a few inches from the woman’s striking face, before the Wolf Girl would pull the trigger, letting out a heavy burst of ice point blank at her opponent.

Where did this woman scamper off to? Alaina had a few questions racing through her mind, but that one was at the forefront. Alaina had a few things in mind she wanted to do to Manami once she got a hold of her. Alaina was the hunter in her mind.

She was quickly proven very wrong.

Alaina turned as she heard a noise behind her and before she realized what was going on the cold foam sprayed her! She tried to shield her eyes as best she could, but she stumbled back in blind shock as a result of Manami's calculated surprise attack!

The amazon was the prey now and the wold had a golden opportunity to lash out and strike back at Alaina!

Manami did her best to hold back a childish giggle as her adversary was met with an ice-coated punch to the face. Even after the Amazon turned away from the nozzle, she kept the pressure on, aiming low to whip the floor around as more and more of the lubricant fell from the woman’s robust form. It was in her best interest to turn the terrain against her.

But the sight of Alaina dripping from the head down, her face absolutely plastered like a paper mache art project, was just too amusing to resist laughing at. Certainly, the audience at home would be getting a kick out of the oh-so-proud woman. It was the little things that really brightened her day up. Now for the cherry on top of this whipped treat.

The Wolf Girl raised the iron cylinder high with both hands, then brought it down hard over Alaina’s head. If there was one thing that could really complete this picture, it was the woman forced down on all fours, wallowing helplessly in the muck.
