Serena’s desperation pays off (for Clockwork samurai)

[DarknessMaster]

Serena would stumble back, trying to keep herself up before trying to tackle Tianhuo again, even though she wasn’t exactly shown to be successful last time

[ClockwerkSamurai12]

Tianhuo would step out of the way before nodding her head.

Tianhuo: If you keep running aimlessly, you won’t be able to stay on target.

[DarknessMaster]

Serena would then end up turning around and immediately run at Tianhuo full speed, attempting to land a dropkick on the woman's back while she was distracted, using the ropes to bounce off and increase her momentum

[ClockwerkSamurai12]

Tianhuo dodges it with ease.

[DarknessMaster]

Serena would immediately panic as her attack was dodged without difficulties by the woman, she would land on her ass and almost slide out of the ring, before grabbing the ropes and crawling back in

”how are you so good a predicting my next move?”

Serena would ask in a soft voice, taking her time to take a few deep breaths, trying to regain her bearings

[ClockwerkSamurai12]

Tianhuo: I have spent years of training under the Longma’s tutorage, you will not be able to hit an opponent if you rush blindly without a plan of attack.

[DarknessMaster]

”trying to fake you out kinda...was my plan”

Serena would say, a bit embarrassedly, before getting back into her feet and trying to think of something else, clearly running at Tianhuo again and again wasn’t going to work well for her

[ClockwerkSamurai12]

Tianhuo: Then perhaps you need a change in strategy..

[DarknessMaster]

"okay, maybe I should do something different, faking her out isn't working, running straight at her isn't working...hmm"

Serena thinks to herself for a second, trying to figure out what she can do

[ClockwerkSamurai12]

Tianhuo waits for Serena to make her move.
