KOVember 2024, Starring Nato

<PREV - HERE - NEXT>

This was it. The final day. One final match for not one, but two beloved jobbers to get through their KOVember expeditions. Nato and Kimiko were never this excited to have a boxing match against someone evenly matched with their quirks and determination. The orange liger and "Star Power" have fought tooth and nail through some nasty knockouts whether at the hands of a rival with a lot of grievances or someone on a level many times higher than them. This month meant so much to them as it gave them experiences that they wouldn't forget and the golden opportunity to prove themselves as far more than anyone's punching bags. They have faced the entire KOVember straightforward with no holding back, taking every defeat with honor, one that takes a lot of talent to withheld. It didn't matter how much hurt they were in the dozens of fights they got themselves dominated in because they showed their opponents clearly that they will fight until their last breath, and this final fight was no different...

The match we all been waiting for, on both of our KOVember heroes' sides, exploded with a banger first round that had everyone see the two exchanging leather and not letting up. And following that first round? More rounds that served as bangers, more moments of Nato and Kimiko punching away at each other, and more knockdowns (quite a few were silly) scored by both. Kimiko at first was the one to take the fight by charge, as Nato was looking worse than her thanks to the star-powered punches she was giving out. But it was when a spark of hope transcended from Nato's friends, Rosa, and his family that reminded him that he has taken too many defeats as someone wanting to honor the undefeatable spirit of his home country and that this Kimiko is easy as pie for him to strike back at. He cannot lose this time, even with those eyes badly blackened. Hanging in while Kimiko began taking the match less seriously, Nato in the later rounds crated impact on Kimiko's head, ruining that popstar makeup and giving payback as he successfully bruised those eyes good while demolishing those cheeks! Eyes for eyes! But just as the match was seemingly going out for Kimiko, she heard support from Fuyuki and even their Mei that kicked killer instincts into the female job- female with one job to do. With Kimiko in a pinch, the fight madly intensified and both jobbers were over their limits near the end of this outstanding battle.

Nato was starstruck to be finding himself in a fight that was slowly putting him on the pedestal finally. At last, he found an opponent he can relate to who had a similar journey, and not just that, that opponent gave him perhaps his greatest match ever. (Even if it's not wrestling) The boy, having as little HP as Kimiko in the verdict round, swung while so exhausted, beaten and nearly out. Kimiko kept refusing to go down, yet she too was fatigued as all Hell, and the superstar was shooting her last comets that were striking Nato good. In fact, those last punches were seconds away from knocking Nato out and giving Kimiko the win as they chipped at his face and belly. Hope has not unlit on Nato as he bided then surprised Kimiko with a powerful jumping uppercut to the chin that put star out of power!! Her makeup-ruined eyes shut after so much stress keeping them open, her mouthguard shot like a golf ball, her KO boobs jiggling as she landed on the ground unconscious and drooling, all those dazing stars preventing her from getting up an inch... And with the referee counting all the way to 10, it was over.

The winner by knockout, owning KOVember with an official record of 1-29....

NATO NEKOZOMI!!

Hardly able to breathe and stand, Nato wearily smiled knowing momentarily that he has become the one to score the knockout this time. Though, barely any celebration could be presented as Nato collapsed onto the ground. Even though he was reasonably out and crushed as well, he could not help but dream of this incredible achievement and happy ending to his month-worth of training. While Kimiko only partaken in this meme-like knockout month strictly for Fuyuki's entertainment (which resulted in the OCs outside Bunny Wrestling to join in on beating her), Nato took the challenge because he wanted to get stronger, and he wanted to also meet the many wonders of the fighting world knowing they can all build him a newer Nato as prestigious and noble as his boxing cousin, and his legendary luchador father. Nato was brave enough to face some of the meanest women to ever show their faces to the world, and all the humiliation he suffered that still rings his head, they were able to transform into the power that he needed to be on top. If it weren't for all those fights, Kimiko would've won this by a mile or two. And no worries, Kimiko can still win! Her journeys as "Star-Power" have been as thrilling, if not more than Nato's, and her first win will absolutely rock everyone once the chase is over.

With all that out the way, thank you EVERYONE who has been enjoying this KOVember spectacular starring our boy, Nato! I had a lot of fun doing these and featuring OCs from so many great people and friends on here!! Definitely will do this again next year, maybe with a different character and/or them dominating this time... Heheheh... Nato will certainly be ready for another adventure ANYTIME!

Stay tuned for the epilogue~
