Chapter 52: A Wrestler's Challenge,pt 2
Sakura smirked, suddenly leaping into the air as Alex got back into his fighting stance. As she leapt, Alex began to smirk as well. Suddenly, he threw his shoulder out and jumped up to meet her, catching her in the torso with his Large Shoulder Block. As she collided with his elbow, she was sent dropping to the ground, rolling before she hit the ground hard to avoid the damaging impact. However, Alex rushed straight at her as she regained her vertical base. Sakura's eyes widened as the large man running at her was like staring at an oncoming car. As Alex charged, shoulder first, at Sakura, she rolled out of the way, sticking her leg out to sweep him again. This time, Alex stopped short as she rolled, turning around and catching her leg with a spinning, low sweep. As her leg was stretched out, it bent outward slightly, causing Sakura to grab it and groan in pain. Her eyes winced at the sudden pain from the kick as she tried to get back to her feet. Sakura rose back, letting that leg go limp as she was now relegated to fighting on one leg.
Alex smiled, seeking this opportunity to let the fight go on his own pace. Sakura, now wincing in pain, got back into her fighting stance, keeping pressure off of her injured leg. Alex, once again, rushed in at her. However, Sakura saw this coming and as Alex approached, she struck out, her fist going into Alex's ribs. Alex's body buckled under the fist, but Alex's combat senses didn't dull during the course of the fight as he grabbed Sakura's arm. He lifted her arm over his shoulder and snapped it down onto his shoulder, flipping her over in front of him. Then, Alex stomped down at her side and kicked her in the back. Finally, he got down to one knee, wrapped his arm over her arm and pulled back, tweaking her arm. Sakura, yelling from the pain, refused to give in to his submission hold. Alex, sensing this, decided to finish the fight now.
He picked her up and prepared to end the fight with his Power Bomb. As he set her up for it, he made a cut throat sign, indicating that he was ending the fight. He picked her up as he leapt into the air, adding power behind the Power Bomb. However, as he was coming down for the bomb, Sakura regained herself, kicking off of his shoulders and landing a solid kick to his face, throwing him off balance as his body landed on the ground with a hard thud. Sakura and Alex were both exhausted now, Sakura with a tweaked arm and leg and Alex from the battle itself. Both fighters were panting for breath.
"....Seems.....like you're better than I thought.....,"Sakura said, a smile on her face.
Alex rose to his feet, panting for breath as his body was being pushed to the brink with this fight.
"...Thanks.....You aren't....bad yourself....,"he replied as he got back into his stance.
"Unfortunately..........I win this fight," he said as he suddenly flashed in front of Sakura as he attempted to launch a series of punches across her chest. However, Sakura ducked underneath the first one......
