It was the last round before starting again at the top of their lists, the clash between the two presidents. The Kappas felt demotivated, but still cheering for their leader to pull out at least one more win. The Gammas were confident. They knew the work that Kayla had put in the last few weeks, and knew she had other skills that would help her win.
"Steve and Kayla, come on up." Quinn called out.
Kayla stood tall and proud, her impressive 5'9" frame amplified by her toned, athletic physique. Her fiery red hair cascaded down her back, setting the perfect backdrop for her emerald green eyes. She exuded confidence and grace, her charisma and wit equally matched by her intimidating disposition. As the president of her sorority, Kayla was used to taking control. She was confident she could outfight Steve, and Cassandra's training had given her more confidence in her sexual abilities, and the ability to dominate the mind of an opponent.
Kayla wore a white lacy top that exposed her flat stomach and showed plenty of her full breasts, with a see-through white skirt and thong underwear for the bottom. The skirt came down to mid-thigh, showing off her long, toned legs.
As she readied herself for the match, she couldn't help but feel proud of her sisters and how well they'd fought. She and seven other sisters remained, against only Steve and Brian for the Kappas. Even if she lost, they still had Lisa, Cassandra, Katherine, and more to fall back on. But, she wanted to win this match. Steve had started this whole mess months ago and then belittled them when they took up the challenge. She was going to take him down.
Steve was a tall, lanky man standing at 6'1", weighing in at 180 lbs. He had a wild head of curly hair, and a mischievous glint in his eye. His friends knew him as the resident prankster who loved to make people laugh and have a good time. He was always up for a challenge, and he was never one to back down from a fight.
Steve wore a pair of simple black shorts, preferring to fight bare-chested. He entered the ring and stood in the corner, deep in thought. His team had already had quite a day, and he was going to fight his hardest, but there was something he needed to do first.
Steve stood in the center of the "Kayla, before we start, can I have a word?"
Kayla looked at Cassandra, who was ringside with her. Cassandra shrugged, and Kayla joined him in the center of the arena. "What is it?"
"After what happened with Dylan, I've been thinking about how this all started, with a Kappa spiking your drink. I think everyone here knows that I love a good prank, but the more I think about it, the more I realize it wasn't funny. It was actually pretty fucked up.
"I don't regret that we had this event..." Steve looked at John, Brian, Dave, Christina, Stephanie, Natalie. "I think our houses are going to be tied more closely together because of today, and you lead a house of truly remarkable women. I'm excited to see what happens next. But I do regret that it started because we took away your agency. Separate of any other apology we make if we lose, I want to apologize, personally, to you for what happened. I will see that the other people involved also write you apologies, and I will take steps to stop this from happening in the future.
"I'd like to clear the air between us so our houses can work together better, but I understand if this is too little too late. Let me know if there's anything I can do to make things better.
"That's all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening."
Steve turned around to go back to his corner, when Kayla said, "Hey."
Steve turned back around, curious. "Thank you," Kayla started. "That's what I wanted from the start."
She took a step closer to him and smiled. "But... I hope you understand, I've got a few months worth of frustration to work out on your hide. So here's the 'anything' you can do. Put up your best fight here. Afterward, regardless of who wins or loses, the air between us will be clear. Agreed?"
Steve put out his hand. "Agreed. Thank you."
Kayla looked at his hand, then stepped forward and gave him a hug. She leaned up to whisper in his ear "I'm gonna kick your ass, though, Mister President."
Steve took a step back and smirked. "You're welcome to try, Madame President."
Kayla and Steve both walked back to their corners.
Cassandra leaned over. "You two are going to be such a great couple. That's what, three tonight?"
Kayla laughed. "Unlikely, you incorrigible matchmaker. Still, something strange is in the air here. I never thought I'd see Steve apologize until we beat it out of him. And he is right... I think we are going to be seeing a lot more of each other." Kayla leaned over to whisper in his ear, "Maybe if he can fuck..."
Cassandra put her hand to her mouth and giggled. "Speaking of beating it out of him... uh, not like... anyway, he doesn't have any martial arts experience that we could find. You know what to do."
Kayla nodded. "Thanks again, Cassandra... for all your help today"
Cassandra smiled. "Go get 'im, Madame President."
Quinn blew the whistle to start the round. Kayla and Steve both walked towards each other, and Steve took up a defensive crouch. "Good luck, Kayla."
"Good luck to you too, Steve."
They circled each other, with Steve looking for an opening to strike. Kayla seemed to have no intention of attacking, instead keeping her distance and waiting.
Finally, Steve lunged forward with a powerful punch aimed at her chest. Kayla turned around to the side, the punch missing her by inches, as she smoothly wrapped her hand around his wrist, and with a subtle, circular movement, threw him to the floor while holding on to his wrist.
Steve gasped in pain while she held him pinned on the floor with her wristlock. "Of course you know Aikido..."
"A woman has to be able to defend herself from brutes like you," she said. "But, here's where it gets more interesting..."
In a smooth, practiced move, she straddled Steve's back, then rolling to the side, she wrapped her long legs around his midsection, letting go of the locked arm but grabbing his other arm and whipping her hips to the side. In the end, she had him immobilized in a tight body scissor with one arm trapped under her, lying on her side, his body tight in her lap, her ankles crossed on the other side.
