A Life of Its Own

by T. Trolley

Liz was a 5-4 and 120 lb. brunette from Cinnaminson, NJ. She and I dated for about a year back in the 80s. At first glance, she wasn't a super attractive woman. Her face wasn't all that great. But she had a very attractive body and a very nice tan. She was in her early 20s and was working as a secretary.

At first glance, Liz looked kind of nerdy. Glasses, somewhat short hair, very quiet -- she looked a lot like a librarian who couldn't hurt a fly. But Liz also had a certain spunk in her that for some reason was very attractive to me. Her legs were in great shape. And when crossed, she would stand up for herself in no uncertain terms. I always had the feeling that there was a certain physical strength within her that would reveal itself if the situation called for it. In other words, if necessary, this seemingly mild-mannered, librarian-type secretary had was strong enough to turn into a modern-day version of Batgirl if need be -- displaying physical power that would astound those around her who would be shocked to find out that this mousey-like woman was much more physically adept than they realized!

Liz didn't talk very much at all. In fact, this librarian yet very athletic type girl talked so very little that it was impossible to break her out of her shell and get to know her. She thought I was the smartest and kindest guy to walk on the face of the earth. But she had Liz had a cute little figure.

Karen, on the other hand, was a 5-7 beauty with long blonde hair and a very cute face as well as a drop-dead gorgeous body. She was a part-time model and
very sweet and innocent. She weighed about 123 lbs. and was a cross between Denise Richards and Julie Love Hewitt. She and was a vivacious, yet at times quiet, woman who could be very outgoing one minute and very introverted the next. Her long blonde hair and gorgeous figure allowed her to pose as a part-time model in some circles.

We were at a local gym where Karen had just showed off her arm strength by beating a girl by the name of Cheryl in arm wrestling and was telling me about her victory when Liz overheard us. She happened to mention that "maybe you could beat Cheryl, but you couldn't beat me!"

I knew that Liz was pretty strong as well in her arms so at first blush I thought the two would end up arm wrestling. I believed that it would be a real good match, though I was of the opinion that Karen would probably come out on top.

As far as I was concerned, seeing these two pretty woman arm wrestle would have been just fine. To see these attractive woman put aside their stereotypical pretentions and pit muscle vs. muscle to see "who was the better woman" would have been just fine, as far as I was concerned.

But this would turn out to me much more than just an armwrestling match as the confrontation between these two women soon would take on a life of its own.

Then someone overheard us and said, "Hey, forget the arm wrestling! Why don't you two just plain wrestle each other?" Several others then got into the flow and began to urge the women to "get it on!"

There was a boxing ring set up at the gym and somebody yelled, "Do it in the ring! Do it in the ring!" Since both of the women were there to work out, they were already in very short shorts, tennis shoes and harness tops -- so they were dressed for the encounter!

The two stared at each other -- and suddenly I saw this intimidating like glare from each woman. It was really something to see these cute little women stare each other down as it was something you'd never expect to see!

And then, without saying a word, both women actually began to step into the ring!

I quickly took on the role as ref! The two women continuted to glare at each other in their corners! Then someone imitated a bell, yelling, "Ding ding!
The two women then slowly moved toward each other! They were going to do it!

Both women lock up, then Karen used her size and strength to push the shorter Liz into the ropes with her long, strong arms! Liz bounces off and as she's about to go into Karen's arms, turns slightly and catchs her with a mulekick to the stomach, causing the taller part-time model to groan and fall to the mat due to the momentum! Liz quickly fell to the mat and tried to end it quickly, pinning Karen with a cross body pin!

I quickly hit the mat with my hand twice next to the beautiful Karen's shoulders! One! Two! But the beautiful long-stemmed rose named Karen managed to use her long, strong legs to bridge her body up and caused Liz to roll off of her at the last second!

Both women stand up! Liz goes for Karen's long, soft hair with both of her hands and tries to pull her down to the ground face first, but as Karen is forced over she grabs Liz by both legs and pulls them out from under her! Liz falls on the mat, hitting the back of her head hard!

Liz groans in pain, and goes for her head, wincing in pain. But then she quickly rolls over onto her belly, still hurting but trying to avoid getting pinned!

Seeing her opportunity, Karen quickly goes to the mat, sits on Liz's back, wraps both of her long arms around Liz's left leg around the shin and twists it --hyperextending the knee with a kneelock! I couldn't believe that Karen had that little bit of meanness in her, but it was obvious she wanted to beat Liz and was going to give no quarter!

Where Karen got the knowledge to put a knee lock on Liz, I don't know. Neither Karen nor Liz knew anything about wrestling, so it was obviously a situation where necessity was the mother of invention. But it was obvious as soon as Karen twisted Liz's knee that Karen's strength and leverage was on display as she forced Liz's knee and leg in a very, very awkward position!

In a matter of a couple of seconds, Liz quickly squeals in pain and fear, "Oh, my knee! Give!" and slaps the mat, shocking everyone as she verbally submitted to Karen -- in just over 30 seconds!

Those watching the match were shocked! They couldn't believe a sweet, innocent girl like Karen had it within her to actually twist a submission out of Liz -- and do it so quickly! The crowd cheered and hooted Karen's accomplishment as Karen released Liz's leg and stood up, raising her right hand in victory over Liz!

As Liz lay on her stomach, slowly bending her knee back and forth to make sure it was OK, while Karen stood over her, Karen for just a moment looked like a beautiful gladiatoress hovering over her defeated prey following her hand-to-hand victory over her adversary in the Roman Coloseum!

I had a watch that I was using to time the match. I looked at it and, to my disbelief, Karen had actually forced Liz to surrender in exactly 36 seconds! Just 36 seconds! Karen was now smiling widely at me as I announced to the crowd that Karen had forced Liz to give up in that amount of time! Those in attendance hooted and applauded loudly Karen's destruction of Liz!

What a huge, impressive win for cute Karen! But, at the same time, it was a humiliating, embarrassing loss for the quiet, obviously weaker and overmatched Liz! Liz was still feeling it as she finally began to slowly get up. She looked at me and was obviously embarrassed with her performance, realizing that Karen had proven that she was stronger than her in obvious fashion by forcing her to submit. Liz's head was bowed and I noticed a tear in one of her eyes!

Karen came over to her and asked, "Are you OK?" Without saying a word and still looking down, Liz simply nodded -- even though she was still bending her knee back and forth. Liz began to walk around and was limping slightly, but fortunately for her she had given up soon enough and Karen had released her early enough to prevent Liz from being seriously injured by the knee lock.

Both women left the ring -- Karen with a huge smile and continually lifting her arms in victory while Liz left, limping slightly and still looking sadly downward, trying to avoid looking at anyone as she left the area.
