If the right one doesn’t get you, the left one will.
Props to Marcella, she actually did much better against his combination than he would’ve guessed, actually managing a decent block against his first hook. It might not have seemed like much, but in his experience so far, most people in LAW were the best strikers, an advantage he was happy to employ over them in situations like this. He was honestly curious where she’d trained and how she got into wrestling in the first place - she definitely had the form to do damage in different rings, if she wanted. Carmen would’ve loved her in the gym. Probably would’ve loved her for a few different reasons, honestly…
But, while, she wasn’t bad with the strikes, she wasn’t good enough to avoid the followup, and that body shot tore straight through her. Army felt the ribs on his impact, knew it had to hurt like fire on the bones, and her cry confirmed it. She would be feeling that one for days, he could tell her from experience.
But that didn’t keep her from giving as good as she got. A solid shot slammed on Army’s upper back - a slow, sloppy hit, but enough to knock a grunt out of him. More importantly, it was enough to keep him low for the hit she undoubtedly wanted more, as she brought her leg up and drove her knee into his stomach.
Army clenched his teeth hard, keeping his own cry of pain stifled, but there was no ignoring the pain running through him, as it felt like someone had thrown a brick into his abs. He stayed standing, but with considerably less wind than he would’ve liked, and no time to summon much more. He needed to press this, needed to keep hammering her before she could capitalize.
Instead of pulling away, Army reached out and wrapped his arm around her body, pulling her against him, tight with his head against the side of her chest. He planted his feet, then drove forward, full speed, as he attempted to smash her back up against the nearest railing.
