Ali Al-Mansour vs Phoebe Vermillion

Phoebe wandered back and forth outside the dining area, not sure what to do about her match against Ali. Yona sat on top of one of the tables, chugging down a glass of beer; Iris' influence beginning to get to her. In her drunken state, she rubbed Phoebe's shoulder, the blonde soon calmed down into sitting next to her. Yona had offered to fight him in her stead, but Phoebe knew this was her fight. She had to do this for the man's honor, the blonde thinking too much about the situation. On one hand, Phoebe boasted that she could surely persuade the man, like she persuaded Yona during their first date, but then she'd have her gimmick revealed to be nothing but a sham. Yona surely knew, so she felt a bit relieved, nuzzling her drunk brunette's cheek gently, hoping that someday she'd reciprocate her feelings.
She was prepared to walk over to the stadium to get the match over with, but Yona quickly snatched her hand and danced with her. Phoebe was incredibly confused, but went with the flow, the blonde now being the target of the other's charm. A soft smirk formed on her face, the two leading from table to table, giggling like school girls. After minutes passed, Yona eventually stopped, switching suddenly to let Phoebe know she, in fact, had been in a perfectly stable mental state the entire time, but perhaps Phoebe wasn't. She had a match to win, she reminded her; somehow such motivating words to push her to both take her first solo match seriously, while also calming her nerves. Yona was quite the weird leader, but she seemed to be a far better one than she could ever be.
The two shared a glance, and a smile, Phoebe eventually running away into the dark hallways ahead of them. Phoebe stumbled inside the stadium, and once again, just like another other time, pretended to be a nervous little nobody. She shyly switched to walking down the ramp, carefully entering the ring. Internally, her heart was racing, unable to hide the self-doubt that was more than real. She leaned her back against the ropes, breathing in a few times to composure herself before the match.
