Sharpen Your Fangs, Cause It's Not The End By xxfinalatomicbusterxx@hotmail.com SFEX3 - Cracker Jack Interpol Agent and Street Fighter extraordinaire Chun Li Xiang takes a challenge from professional wrestler Rainbow Mika; F/F wrestling/fighting Just as the sun began to peek over the horizon in New York City, a white convertible BMW Z3 pulled into Ryker's Gym and Fitness Center. It was barely 5:15 a.m., yet inspector Chun Li Xiang of the ICPO and World Warrior fame was up and ready to face another day. She shifted into park, turned off the engine, and gracefully stepped out, shouldering a white and red duffle bag. Just from an idle glance, a bystander could immediately feel a sense of power and poise emanating from her 5'7'' 125 lbs. frame, which she kept in top condition to maintain her reputation as "the strongest woman in the world." Upon her feet she wore blue and yellow Adidas running shoes, ideal for catching perpetrators who foolishly believed they could escape the law. Her gorgeous legs, covered only by a pair of blue (same shade as her Alpha series outfit) biking shorts, were a sight to behold, nothing short of flawless: their musculature was perfectly but not overly defined. Many a Street Fighter had met their downfall after experiencing her lightning-fast kicks first-hand. The agent's upper body was equally impressive: her abdominal muscles were toned and showed faint outlines of a six-pack, and her full, rounded bosom pressed rather snugly against the confines of a blue sports bra. If a slight weakness could be pointed out (as far as usefulness in combat is concerned), it lay in her arms. Though they were by no means scrawny, they lacked the raw power her legs possessed. To compensate for this, Master Gen taught her everything he knew about pressure points and joint locks, in addition to his vast knowledge of Wu Shu Kung Fu. Around each wrist she wore black bracelets with rounded metal studs, given to her on they day she vowed revenge against Bison, the leader of the Shadaloo terrorist organization and also the man responsible for the death of her father, Chief Dorai. To top it off, her face was captivating enough to garner the attention of the vainest of the vain, Vega, the Spanish matador-ninja. Her brown, silky hair was tied back in two buns. Chun Li passed through the sliding door of the fitness center and flashed the desk attendant her clearance card, to which he responded with a small salute. She made her way further inside, walking past the treadmills and weight machines toward her specialty: a suspended 100 lb. sandbag. She set her bag near the wall and began stretching and gathering her chi, preparing her body mentally and physically with special breathing techniques she learned during years of training under her grandfather. Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the presence of another being. "Um, excuse me, but are you by any chance Miss Chun Li Xiang?" a hesitant female voice with a slight Japanese accent inquired from behind the Interpol agent. She turned to face the owner of the voice and was met by a somewhat imposing figure: the one who had posed the question was nearly 6 feet in stature, was probably 155 lbs., and was gifted with a body that rivaled and sometimes surpassed Chun Li's. Surrounding her legs from down to her ankles was a pair of white spandex pants. The twenty-something woman's legs were larger and lacked the definition of the Kung Fu practitioner's, but judging from her percent body fat, they could still prove quite potent in battle. Her arms resembled those of MI6's Cammy White: her biceps were larger than average for a woman, yet just missed the mark of being considered masculine. Her waist was slightly greater in girth than Chun Li's, yet it did not detract from her femininity in the least, and her ample endowments strained against the white sports bra she wore. Her facial features were distinctly Japanese, which contrasted greatly with her blonde hair (currently tied back into two ponytails of about hip-length). Before the inspector could reply, the young woman's face lit up like a child on Christmas morning and she seized Chun Li's right hand in her own, shaking it with great fervor. "Oh, I knew it was you! Allow me to introduce myself! My name is Mika Lauren Takemishi, but on the pro-wrestling circuit I'm known as the amazing Rainbow Mika!" "A pleasure," the bewildered agent managed to utter. "I've been following the underground Street Fighter matches closely via the Internet," Mika continued. "Your strength and skills are simply astounding!" Chun Li smiled politely, and stole a nearly undetectable glance at her right hand. The wrestler quickly inferred her gesture and released her grip, giving the agent a shy grin. "Hehe, sorry ... . Oh! Um, I was wondering if, um Miss Xiang ... . Er ... . Willyousparwimme?" The inspector blinked, trying to pick apart the jumble of phrases that poured from Mika's mouth. The young fighter mistook Chun Li's hesitation as a rebuff, and she immediately lowered her eyes in shame. The Interpol agent immediately felt a wave of guilt as she comprehended Mika's words and body language. "Well, sure. Why not." Mika's face seemed to beam with happiness; it was all she could do to keep from jumping out of pure joy. "Oh, thank you! This means so much to me! A match with a warrior of your ability is like a dream come true!" "Well, here we are!" Mika chirped. She flipped several light switches on the wall and bade Chun Li to enter. "How do you like it?" Chun Li surveyed the area. It was about 30' by 30', and the ground was lightly padded with some sort of matting material. The temperature was very comfortable: somewhere in the lower 70s. "Do any of the other members know about this place? I've never seen it before." "Nah. After the fitness center expanded, they sorta sealed this area off. I got permission from the manager and my parents had it restored," Mika explained. "Now, me and my pals use it for private sessions." The two ladies placed their bags in a corner and walked to the center of the room, assuming their respective fighting stances at a distance of about 5' apart from each other. Not wanting to disappoint, Mika was the first to attack, lashing out with a low kick to Chun Li's shin, which the Wu Shu artist nimbly sidestepped. Chun Li then countered with a snap kick to the side of Mika's knee. Using Mika's sudden shift of weight against her, Chun Li spun so that she was back to back with the wrestler and then looped her arm around her throat. Mika was then thrown rather violently across Chun Li's hip, slamming into the mat with a loud thud. The young wrestler rolled with the force and rose to her feet, breathing hard. She definitely hadn't expected that. Chun Li advanced quickly, first letting fly a straight right punch and following through with an elbow aimed at Mika's solar plexus. The wrestler parried the first strike and successfully blocked the second. At this point Chun Li's back was turned to her opponent. She jumped into the air and rotated, aiming a spinning roundhouse at where Mika's head should have been. Fortunately for the grappler, she ducked just in time to avoid the blow. Chun Li landed with her back still turned, unable to cease her momentum. Still crouched, Mika shot out her open palms into the back of the Kung Fu artist's knees, causing Chun Li's legs to buckle. Without delay Rainbow Mika pushed down on Chun Li's shoulders, performing a somersault over the Chinese woman's head, rotating 180 degrees, and landing bottom-first directly on top of Chun Li's thighs. A sharp burst of pain shot through the Interpol agent's legs due to the fact that her calves were compressed under her thighs. Mika reacted quickly, snaking her long and shapely legs around Chun Li just below her rib cage and locking her ankles behind her back. Chun Li realized her predicament and reached out to push against Mika's thighs, but it was too late: Mika had her pinned in a front-oriented body scissors. The young wrestler rested her hands on the floor to provide leverage and began to compress her legs around the Interpol agent. Chun Li gritted her teeth and threw back her head as she felt her insides being crushed between Mika's shockingly strong thighs. Hoping to lessen the effects of Mika's scissors, Chun Li placed her hands around the wrestler's right kneecap and pushed in an effort to dislodge the bone from its correct position. The young grappler winced and countered by bracing her right arm with her left hand, driving the fingers of her right appendage into Chun Li's toned belly. The combination of the body scissors and stomach claw proved to be incredibly effective: Chun Li loosened her grip on Mika's knee and concentrated on tightening her abdominal muscles to push out Mika's digging fingertips. But in doing so she hunched forward slightly and allowed herself to be drawn deeper into Mika's body scissors. Her immediate reaction was to lean back and push as hard as she could against the inside of Mika's thighs ... to which Mika simply poured on more pressure to the claw. This action made Chun Li feel as though a branding iron were being pressed against her stomach. Every few seconds Mika would tighten her grip on both holds a little more, eliciting a gasp of anguish from the inspector. Beads of perspiration began to break out on the exposed portions of the two fighters: foreheads, tops of breasts, and stomachs soon shined with a film of sweat. Unfortunately for Mika, this caused her to lose her grip on the claw. But from the ashen look on the Wu Shu artist's face, one could plainly see that a decent amount of damage had been done. Just when Chun Li thought that the pressure of Mika's remaining hold could increase no more, the Japanese wrestler sucked in a large gulp of air and squeezed as hard as she could, hoping to obtain a tap out from the Interpol agent. The sudden jolt of pain combined with the soreness she felt in her abs was too much for her to bear, and Chun Li cried out in agony. "Aaaaaaaaa-oooooooohhhh!" For nearly three minutes Mika held her in that vice-like grip, wringing the life out of her. When the grappler finally relaxed a bit due to the fact that her muscles were becoming exhausted, Chun Li sprang into action: she wrenched at R. Mika's legs, unhooking them and effectively breaking the scissor hold. The Kung Fu practitioner then pushed Mika's legs upwards as hard as she could, rolling the wrestler backward and off her lap. Without any haste, Mika kip-upped to her feet, ready to resume her offensive. Chun Li pushed herself up, attempting to match the young wrestler's pace, and she was assaulted by a number sensory relays: her abdominals, ribs, and lower back called out in dismay as she straightened her body. "M ... Miss Xiang?" Mika tentatively called out when she saw the Interpol agent cover her belly and forehead with her hands. "Can you continue?" "Y-yes," she replied, swaying her head slowly from side to side, visibly trying to break through the pain. "Whenever you're ready." Keeping her weight on the balls of her feet, Mika warily circled her opponent. In her mind she ran through all of the possible maneuvers she had at her disposal, all the while analyzing her foe's strengths and weaknesses. Quite suddenly, the grappler advanced with a simple but brutal shoulder charge, hoping to tackle Chun Li and possibly set up another hold. With all the skill that her training had imbued in her, at the last possible moment Chun Li crouched and swept Mika's feet out from under her. The inspector pressed her advantage and executed her Senenshu, whereby she performed a forward flip on her hands and slammed one leg down in an axe- like motion. Mika, still recovering when she saw the incoming attack, had no choice but to attempt to block from a ducking stance. Chun Li's potent technique broke through the wrestler's guard, leaving her open to the Chinese detective's famous Spinning Bird Kick. The agent speedily stood on her hands and spread her legs out in a full split, whirling aggressively and smashing her feet three times into the side of Mika's body. Before the pro wrestler even had the chance to comprehend what hit her, the ICPO officer pushed off the ground with her hands and drove feet first into the surprised woman's gut. "Whooof!" The wind flew from her lugs just before she began to tumble head over heels across the floor. In a move characteristically unlike herself, Chun LI faltered before following through and persisting her offensive. That tiny bit of uncertainty was all that Mika needed to mentally set up a trap for the unsuspecting detective. At a dead sprint the Interpol agent closed the gap between the two, gathering her chi with her hands cupped near her solar plexus. Mika held her ground, anxiety beginning to build like a cold ball of ice in her stomach. 5 feet ... 3 feet ... 1 foot ... . At virtually point blank range Chun Li brought her hands around, ready to unleash her devastating Kikou Shou technique. However, Rainbow Mika had other plans. Just as a huge orb of blue swirling energy nearly 6 feet in diameter burst into existence in the palms of Chun Li's hands, Mika grabbed the Interpol agent by her wrists and pushed her arms up and away. This action directed the brunt of the blast at an angle high enough so that the grappler barely felt anything except a strong gale of wind. A look of complete shock crossed the World Warrior's face as a great deal of her chi was expended in a fruitless effort. After a few seconds went by, the attack faded into nothingness, leaving Chun Li temporarily weakened and her defenses at a minimum. Without a moment's delay, Mika yanked Chun Li by her wrists, sending the Wu Shu practitioner's skull on a crash course for her own. The resulting headbutt left Chun Li stunned and literally seeing a galaxy floating through her brain. Mika maintained the upper hand by executing her famous self-styled Flying Peach assault. After leaping through the air, Mika sailed buttocks-first into the ICPO agent, sending her reeling into one of the four walls. Before Chun Li could slide down to her feet in a pain-induced stupor, Mika bent forward a bit, wrapped her arms around the Street Fighter's slender waist, and pulled her in closely for a bear hug. "And now for the clincher," the grappler whispered, barely audible to Chun Li, who was just beginning to fathom what was in store for her. "What's hap-? Oooh, nooo!" the detective thought to herself as she tried to find some way out. A distant memory of a fight between a sumo wrestler and herself resurfaced suddenly, bringing with it a sharp reminder of the extreme amount of torture that a simple bear hug could cause. Mika positioned her arms so that they were pressed against the small of the Interpol agent's back. Gradually, the pro wrestler straightened up, pulling the shorter woman to the tips of her toes and finally completely off the ground. Already Chun Li could feel her diaphragm being compressed, making something as uncomplicated as breathing a laborious task. As Mika began to squeeze her opponent, she took in a number of details on Chun Li's body that aided her in calculating the possibility of a submission. The grappler could feel Chun Li's shoes connecting at first solidly with her shins, but these kicks gradually grew weaker in force as Mika wore down the other fighter. She deduced correctly that Chun Li's sides and back were still suffering from her combination body scissors/stomach claw hold, and this fact most assuredly boosted Mika's chances for a win with this particular technique. She considered the odds of Chun Li's being able to power out of the hold by forcing her hands in between her own body and the grappler's arms, but she quickly ruled the likelihood of it out. Mika calmly ignored Chun Li's attempts to free herself: the World Warrior pried uselessly at what felt like two iron bands curled around her waist, and in a futile exertion to alleviate some of the intense pain she arched her back. Mika risked a glance up at her opponent to complete her evaluation. Chun Li's rounded chest heaved irregularly as she tried to take in air while not compounding the agony she felt in her spine. The wrestler saw Chun Li's face, now bathed in sweat and contorted into a look of complete defeat: her shapely mouth was pursed into a thin line, clearly trying to keep herself from screaming at the top of her lungs. Her cheeks were now a deep shade of red, and her eyes were clamped shut. "Wow ... she's as good as gone," Mika thought to herself. "Time to end this." The pro wrestler pressed her forehead against the exposed portion of Chun Li's breasts and then channeled all of her power into her arms. A series of pops and snaps filled the air, followed by a shriek from Kung Fu artist. Mika was dangerously close to crippling the World Warrior, and Chun Li knew it. The quantity of pain emanating from her back was absolutely unreal. Chun Li herself couldn't understand why she hadn't passed out by now: unless she was hallucinating, the feeling in her legs was disappearing and breathing was now impossible. In what could only be described as a last ditch effort, the Wu Shu artist extended her arms out and then slammed her palms into the wrestler's temples. At full strength, this blow would surely have sent any normal person into a comatose state, but at her present condition it merely increased Mika's resolve. Chun Li lightly tapped the grappler's right elbow three times to signal her surrender. In one fluid motion, the wrestler relinquished the crushing embrace and scooped one hand under Chun Li's legs while keeping one behind her. Gently, she lowered the Street Fighter to the ground. She carefully rubbed Chun Li's lower spine until the dazed look in her eyes cleared away. "Oh, Miss Xiang, I cannot thank you enough for this opportunity," Mika offered while giving Chun Li's hand a tiny squeeze. "You were wonderful." "I should be the one thanking you," Chun Li spoke finally. "You showed me that I still have a great deal to learn. If possible, I'd like to fight you again later on." "I would be honored," the wrestler replied. Mika then guided the Interpol agent to her feet and slipped one of Agent Xiang's arms over her shoulder. Together they walked to the parking lot, said their good-byes, and drove home to get ready for work.
