[Standard Match] Charlotte Ravel' (D) vs Lucy Stone - The Phantom Menace

She even ignored the question, deciding to answer with an attack instead of words. Charlotte’s first kick passed in front of Lucy’s face, the next moment was extremely tense, so you can’t be absolutely sure that the situation will turn in your direction. However, this time the game was worth it, and after the slip that was planned, the red-haired girl rushed to the attack, meeting with the complex and cunning kick that Sand Lizard prepared for her.

After the kick, the red-haired girl took a few steps back before collapsing on her back. This time the kick was clean, and Charlotte didn’t even want to think about how her rival’s headache now. But this was not a victory, so the Frenchwoman approached Lucy lying on the floor.

- Perhaps I was right, - she muttered.

Maybe this was not rash from Lucy's point of view, but Charlotte believed that the girl underestimated the power of her enemy and overestimated her own and now she paid for it. And in part, this slightly upset the pink-haired girl. She saw great potential in her rival, could not refuse thought that Lucy was not using all her abilities. On the other hand... any brilliant was once a untreated diamond.

Sand Lizard was about to grab the Demon by her right hand and force her to rise with a strong jerk. Perhaps in the heat of the fight, few will attach importance to this, but Charlotte chose to grab her opponent by the hand, and not by the hair, as many others usually did. If she had managed to get Lucy to rise, she would have bent a little to grab the red-haired girl's right thigh with right hand, while continuing to hold her rival's hand. After that, the Frenchwoman was about to straighten up to lift Lucy on shoulders letting go of hand but clasping Lucy's neck and prepare her for next move.

After all, if Lucy still could not resist after the kick to the head, then Charlotte was determined to show that she was not only the striker, but also the real wrestler. And to prove this, she was about to throw Lucy in front of her and put her right knee forward. In this case the red-haired Demon had to fall with her stomach directly onto the Frenchwoman’s knee. This signature move was named after the great monster from the Star Wars universe and called sarlacc's mouth!

Throwing the Demon on knee, Charlotte took a few deep breaths. She was not distinguished by a huge reserve of endurance, moreover, her physical strength was not a priority characteristic. Therefore, even taking into account the fact that Lucy was not the heavy opponent, such a movement as sarlacc's mouth was quite exhausting for Charlotte.

- Le succès, - Sand Lizard said quietly in French as Lucy rolled onto her back and began to cough.

However, the master of martial arts did not have the right to slow down. Taking a deep breath, she took a step forward, turning her back to Lucy. Being sure that now the Demon cannot take a full breath and feels lacks oxygen, the Frenchwoman was going to aggravate this situation for her rival.

Pushing herself off the floor, Sand Lizard was about to do a backflip and as a result to land with her knees directly on Lucy's injured stomach. Maybe the master of martial arts didn’t have the habit of attacking the same part of the opponent’s body, but this time the continuation as standing moonsault knee drop should have been a good argument in order to bring Lucy closer to defeat.

Charlotte was ready to do a back flip to make things worse for Lucy when she suddenly felt something grab her leg. Charlotte's left eyebrow rose and in a moment the Frenchwoman was down, and her shoulders were pressed to the mat. However, the joke was that the referees were far from always able to quickly respond to a quick change of scenery. But not this time, because almost immediately after Charlotte was downstairs, the referee girl was there to slap and announce:

- One!

And after that, Charlotte realized that what was happened. She began to jerk with her legs. Charlotte gritted her teeth involuntarily, and her gaze filled with anger. A fire was lit in her soul, which began to spread throughout the body, from the heels to the crown.

- Two! - the referee slammed again.

- Good trick, - Charlotte hissed, - but I hate tricks.

The Frenchwoman gathered her strength and powerfully jerked her legs up, breaking a pin and freeing herself from Lucy. Charlotte was on her back, but now she did not intend to slow things down. Anger had already begun to fill her and now she could hardly restrain herself so as not to start using it. But in any case, she intended to take revenge Lucy for this trick.

"Revenge is not the fighter way", - she remembered the words of one of her masters, but now she has overwhelmed her with negative emotions.

The Sand Lizard abruptly lay onto her left side and lifting herself with left hand. The girl was determined to send her right leg bent at the knee to Lucy's head, straightening it to increase the speed and strength of the kick. Yes, such abrupt and unexpected movements as the round kick from the ground were part of the krav maga that Charlotte used in the latter form of fight. So now she had a great effort to maintain her composure and not turn into a berserker.

A smile full of pleasure appeared on Charlotte's face as her foot slammed into Lucy's head. The chest of the Frenchwoman rose and fell heavily. Not only because she had just nearly lost the match, but also because she was angry now. The Frenchwoman always tried to act as professionally as possible, that was her way. Whatever her opponent, she always tried to show due respect. And no matter how the situation developed, Charlotte always tried to fight with honor.

But not always everything turns out exactly the way we want it. Here it is now. Adrenaline began to fill the body, but she was not ready to curb it right now. If she allowed anger to go outside, she would become uncontrollable, and Sand Lizard was not going to allow that. On the one hand, the girl understood that Lucy had not broken any rules. But on the other hand, Charlotte considered this move very dirty. She still had some spiritual problems that she could not solve. And it was her critical thinking and image of a noble fighter that made her perceive such actions extremely negatively.

“Breath. Inhale and exhale. Oxygen will calm emotions, the main thing is to continue to breathe evenly”, - the girl thought, taking a deep breath, trying to find peace of mind and prevent a bad turn of events.

Maybe she could not calm herself in an instant, but now she was obliged to act, it was as clear as day. Lucy has already shown that she is capable of not only effective, but also insidious movements. And so now Charlotte was determined to make sure that in addition to the headache and stunning, Lucy would get something else. And she was sure that the red-haired Demon would definitely not like this!

And so, to not to waste time getting up to her feet, Charlotte abruptly made a forward roll. At this time, she intended to stretch her right leg up, and then with maximum speed lower her heel directly into the navel of the Demon! Sand Lizard needed to make sure that Lucy would get an urgent need for the air that was supposed to leave her body after this sudden movement!

Charlotte’s heel hit Lucy’s stomach like a hammer on an anvil. The pink-haired girl pursed her lips when she heard the cough of her rival. But now was not the time to relax. The Frenchwoman rose to her feet and reached for the red-haired Demon. At first, her hand was directed toward Lucy's hair, but then Charlotte stopped herself and grabbed her opponent's right hand. It seems that she managed to calm herself and abandon dirty thoughts.

“Keep yourself in control”, - the girl reminded herself mentally.

The master of martial arts was determined to yank the American girl up and get her to her feet. However, after the trick with the sudden pin, Sand Lizard did not trust her rival, so, before continuing to act, she was going to send an additional knee strike to the Demon’s stomach to keep her lungs empty.

And if Lucy could not resist, then Charlotte would gladly take advantage of this. Because now the Frenchwoman was going to grab the neck of her rival with her left hand in the front facelock! Although this would be just the beginning because the girl was going to wrap Lucy's nearest arm around her neck, and then grab Lucy's nearest leg. For what?

Only in order to straighten up in full and raise the red-haired beauty above the mat in the upside down position to an impressive enough height! Maybe Charlotte did not have too much physical strength, but her opponent’s moderate weight would allow her to keep Lucy in this position for several seconds before the Frenchwoman will start to fall to slam the opponent's back into the mat with delayed vertical suplex!
