Queens of the Ring
For as long as they could remember, pro wrestling was their dream.
Unfortunately, that dream isn't unique to Yuiri and Nana. So it's up to them to prove to everyone that their dream is the strongest.

Prologue: The Dream Begins
"There's no way she's kickin outta this one! After 30 grueling minutes, Double Matsui hit the 'Dead Center'! This is their chance to finally win the tag team titles! Are we gonna have new champions?
1! 2! 3!
They've done it! Matsui Jurina and Rena are the tag team champions! Hollywood Jurina and the Nagoya Dragon have made WIP history!"
It was a moment paused in time, Yuiri and Nana stared at the screen in awe. The two had been wrestling fans since they were little girls and had seen the titles change hands several times throughout the years. However, something felt very different about watching Double Matsui (specifically Jurina) finally earn the gold.
"Yuuchan… I wanna be a wrestler."
Yuiri nearly spilled her drink upon hearing her utter those words, "What?! Are you crazy?! We just watched people get their heads kicked in for 30 minutes!"
"Hollywood Jurina is no older than us. She is living proof that achieving your dreams is possible."
"Was being a wrestler a dream of yours?" Yuiri raised an eyebrow at the other girl.
"Wasn't being a wrestler your dream too?"
The response caught Yuiri off-guard. It WAS her dream at one point. She thought back to her younger self, imagining the roar of the crowd. Naachan at her side holding a matching tag team title belt of her own. The sold out arena chanting their names. Two queens in the center of the squared circle.
A smirk broke out on Nana's face. "I know that look."
"What look?"
"The same look I had when I saw Double Matsui get the three count. Sometimes I just drift off and think of the roar of the crowd with you at my side holding the tag team belt…" Nana noticed Yuiri staring off into space again, getting caught inside the same daydream that she had just broken her out of.
Nana never had a talent for persuasion, but in this instance she didn't need it. Yuiri had already sold herself on the idea. She just didn't know it yet.
"So tomorrow we're going to the gym!"
Yuiri snapped out of her thoughts once more, "Huh? Gym? What for?"
"I wanna put some muscle on those pathetic noodle arms of yours Yuuchan!" Nana grabbed Yuiri's skinny arm and wiggled it around. "You think you can throw an elbow with these?"
"Stop it Naachan, I'm not gonna be a wrestler. I wanna go to medical school and–"
"Yuuchan! Yuuchan! Yuuchan! Yuuchan!" Nana mimicked the sound of the crowd chanting her name. Followed by a poor attempt to recreate the sound of a cheering audience.
"You're serious aren't you?"
"Would I ever lie to you?"
Yuiri let out a sigh. "Okay fine. I'll be a wrestler. Only because I dont want you to be alone when you make stupid decisions."
"Face it Yuuchan, you wanna be a wrestler just as bad as I do."
Yuiri rolled her eyes, "if you wanna get in the ring so bad, you're gonna need to know how to get out of a headlock."
"Huh? What are you talking about—ACK!" Nana couldn't finish her sentence before Yuiri pounced and wrenched her into a vicious headlock maneuver.
"Cmon Naachan, you should be able to break out of this. Didn't you just say I have pathetic noodle arms?" Yuiri's spat venomously. The hold only lasted for about half a minute before the struggling girl tapped out. "Eh? You tapped to a headlock? Poor show, tsk tsk tsk."
Once Yuiri released her hold, Nana immediately hit the ground and rolled over as she attempted to catch her breath.
"Also Naachan, being a wrestler means no junk food." She crouched down and picked up candy wrappers off the floor, "Were still hitting the gym tomorrow right?"
Okada was determined to be the future star of the ring, she struggled to stand up and propped herself on one knee, "You'll learn soon enough Yuuchan. That Naachan never gives up!"

A/N: I have not abandoned Adventures in Art School. I've had this idea of starting a Tofu Pro Wrestling fic for a while. I haven't seen one on this site. So I'd like to be the first. (And only lol)
