Red Is For Love (Io Shirai X Male OC)

Adam vs Ren

~With Kai~

Adam and I looked at each other with intensity as one of us was waiting to make the first move. We then moved around in a circle, still waiting for one of us to make the first move.

Then, we decided to go after each other, but I was quick. I went behind him and dropped him on his stomach and looked for the Fujiwara Armbar, but he managed to get to the bottom rope, making me break the hold as I had to move away.

We then circled around the ring and we locked up, but we went to a corner, where we had to break it up. After he broke away Adam started to kick my gut two times before I managed to sell them and pull him up for a gut wrench suplex and looked to perform a Dragon Sleeper, but he rolled out of the ring.

That gave me an opening to try to pull him back into the ring, but he gave me an enziguri kick to my head!

I ended up getting out of the ring too as I looked to catch my breath, but Adam threw me into the steel steps!

I was on the ground, in a bit of agony, but it was no big deal, I can manage. After that he threw me back into the ring, but I got back up on my feet and stare him down.

He was surprised to see me standing as I smiled and waited for him to bring the fight to me.

I went around him for another waistlock as I managed to lock him in a headlock and then a takedown, but Adam locked his legs around my head. I managed to kick out and grab his ankle for a lying ankle lock.

As I held on, I heard a chant that really took me out on the inside!

Crowd(singing): Oooooooh Ren Hosako! Oooooooh Ren Hosako!
Locking your arm,
Rip off your arm,
Walking in an Hosako Wonderland!
*CLAP CLAP*

It made me smile a bit in approval for the chant, but I had to stay focused. As Adam tried to grab the bottom rope, I pulled him away, locked his legs with my hand and I flipped him up, my knees pushing into Adam's spine.

It wasn't long before Adam escaped and grabbed me for an ankle lock, but I escaped and stayed on my back with my legs out, hoping he gets close to me as the fans applauded us.

Then, I got up as I grabbed his other leg and dropped him on his back, looking for a heel hook, but he blocked as I laid on his chest and flipped him over again as I looked for another Fujiwara Armbar, but he got out of the ring and I smiled again.

The crowd applauded again and I still smiled as if I'm saying to Adam, "Remember, I got this in my arsenal. You better watch yourself. I can lock you up anytime and tap you out."

As soon as Adam stepped back into the ring, I stepped forward as if to charge at him, but I laughed and joked around.

Everyone might think that I'm sadistic in the ring, but in reality, I'm actually enjoying this, both in and out of character.

Now it's coming down to mind games.

We locked up once again as Adam looked to lock me in a headlock and try to choke me out.

Now, you might think that someone like me who has a decade of experience in this sport, that at this stage, all the injuries and stiff shots that I would take from all those competitors I faced would start to wear me down, but in reality, I think I'm in the best shape of my life.

As he was trying to choke me, I manage to escape to get under the bottom rope for a tactic that my mentor would do.

Adam went to me, but before he could pull me back through the ropes, I locked onto his arm with an armbreaker, using the ropes as leverage!
