[Nomo & ...Someone New?] Whale of an Entrance ----- [5 Days after Nomo's first Championship Win] The newly crowned champion of the HSL, one smug sumo by the name of Nomo, relaxed in her residence. It had been a looooong week for her, with all the parties and press and just the excitement of achieving her dream. She had even lost a bit of weight... well not *all* of it, this casual size she was currently at still had a sizable gut, perfect to stuff with all the celebratory snacks she could ever want! She was just about to turn on the TV to see what was on, when her phone buzzed. "Huh, who's textin at this hour?", she muttered as she grabbed her phone. There was a simple text there from the receptionist at the front desk of the stadium. Recep: "Hi Nomo! So uhhh a bit of unexpected news, but you have a visitor!" Nomo: "Yea sure lol, I've got time for company." Recep: "Alright! I'll give her the visitor key." Some time and a few chips crunched later, the door to Nomo's residence swung open! "Ack!" Nomo jumped a little, "Could have knocked..." The mysterious figure stepped into the room and chuckled, "Heh, what's the matter? You did give me the key after all." Standing in the large foyer of Nomo's place was someone Nomo hadn't seen around the stadium before. The mystery person was a strong and stoic looking woman, a good handful of inches taller than Nomo was. Her body was wrapped in a beautifully designed teal kimono, with patterns of the waves of the sea adorning every inch of the fabric. Her dark hair was done up in a topknot, with strands sticking out that seemed to make it resemble the shape of a... Suddenly, something came to the front of Nomo's mind. Whispers she had heard around the food court, conversations she had with fellow competitors, and the tiiiiny bit of research on the history of HSL's Champions at like 11:30pm to get more intel for her match 5 days ago. They were all related to a former champion, before the one Nomo had just defeated. A champion known as... "You..." Nomo stuttered in a bit of shock, "You're the Whale Empress-" The now identified visitor scoffs, "Please, just call me Kujira. And you must be Nomo?" "C-correct, your... uh... highness?" despite being a celebrity herself, Nomo had never been more starstruck in her life. "Well it's good to know you know some of my history." Kujira cheekily turns her waist, causing her large chest to wobble, "Would you like a crash course?" "I... uh... I feel like I've heard all I need to know from the others. You're like... the former heart of this whole league!" Nomo glances towards her table, "Would you... like a snack?" Kujira giggles again, still standing in that open space, "I'm good, I had a whole buffet's worth of sushi before I got here." "Ok..." Nomo breathes a sigh of reflief, before a couple of things strike her as odd. "Why are you just kinda... standing in my foyer?" "I mean, that's an easy question. What I want to ask you is... what's it like being the most unique sumo I've ever seen?" Kujira asks with a curious glint in her eye, "Your outfit is so unlike anything else I've seen from the sumos here, I mean is that belt even a mawashi?" Nomo seems a bit flustered, "Well now that you mention it... I didn't realize how unique my outfit is." she glances down a little, "Sorry if that's like... a bad thing-" "Well, though I would never wear something like that in my life, it is the kind of fresh bit of innovation this sport needs..." she says this with a tiiiiny bit of teasing pridefulness, "But if you want to be remembered as a TRUE champion and see more people wearing your silly little outfit then you'll need to conquer royalty~" Nomo's gone from starstruck to intimidated, "Well... I would enjoy a battle with you-" "Then get a load of this!", within a few seconds Kujira reaches behind her kimono and unties the knot at the back. She then grabs hold of the kimono and tosses it away... For a second, there is silence, and then... BLOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMPPPPHHHHHH!!!!! The once small samurai sudden balloons in size! Nomo was expecting compression, but she didn't expect a sumo as big as this! Kujira's gigantic gut wobbles the most after being freed from the robe, which especially stands out because of a LARGE tattoo of a tidal wave adorning it. The room also feels a few degrees hotter in the presence of such immense fat. Kujira doesn't seem as fazed by her size change, "Oho~ You realizing the implications?" Nomo freezes up, looking right at Kujira's titanic body, "BUH- I- You're... I don't think I've EVER gone THAT big before." "Oh I know~" a devious grin grows on Kujira's face, "I do know a lot about you remember? Including..." She reaches up to the sky, getting a big stretch for her whale sized body, and then bends forward. With a BOOM her fists and chest hit the ground, completing her getting into a pre-match squat, something which Nomo LOVES doing. This also gets her face to face with the little in comparison Nomo. "This here pose~ This is your specialty right? A bit of a distraction before a hard match?~", With a very audible WOBBLE and CLAP she sways her oversized hips. Nomo, called out, tries desperately to keep her composure. "You're... you're really focused on me huh? You even know my secret tactics?" The smug Kujira responds, "Why yes, as royalty of the sport I tend to scout out my new rivals~" "NEW RIVAL???" Kujira nods, before doing a loud STOMP and standing up back to full height. "THAT'S what I came here to tell you, and that's what I'll leave you with~" Then as quickly as she had ballooned to full size, she swiftly picks up her kimono and slips it back on with surprising ease. "I- Wait-" "My re-debut is in two days, I'll see you then, Blossom Blimp~" on that final note, Kujira swiftly turns and heads out the door, cheekily waving goodbye. Nomo just... stands there for a minute, before flopping back down onto her couch, "Oh my gods that was NUTS I was about to pass out..." Seems like her work as champion won't be too easy, especially with a whale of a rival now waiting for her to step up~ [The End... For now >:3]
