Knock her out! (Requires Str 5 and Dex 3)

Athena’s far from easy to overpower, but even the strongest, fastest, toughest fighter still needs oxygen. As you cinch in the chokehold in just the right place to put the squeeze on the arteries in her throat, her chances of escape drop from slim to none.

**** someone out is always a dicey proposition; it’s very easy to hurt your target by mistake if you don’t know what you’re doing. Fortunately, you do, and you watch Athena carefully for any signs of serious distress as you finish her off.

But there are none. Only the slowing, weakening struggles of a Goddess being sent to dreamland.

When she finally goes limp, you immediately let her go and step aside to let the ref check on her. Her arm is raised off the ground three times, and each time it falls unceremoniously back down without a twitch of motion. The referee gives her a quick once-over to see if she’s all right before giving the thumbs-up, and the buzzer sounds twice to mark the knockout.

A quick glance at both corners reveals a study in duality—Aphrodite is staring at you in utter shock, still trying to process what’s happened, while Melody is grinning from ear to ear and literally jumping for joy.

You allow yourself a celebratory moment to enjoy the sight of her full breasts bouncing up and down with her as the official brusquely snaps a capsule of smelling salts under Athena’s nose. The Goddess’s eyes start to flicker open for a few seconds—and then snap to full awareness as she scrambles to her feet. A quick look at the scoreboard confirms what must be her worst fears.

“Impossible,” she murmurs, her expression a mirror of her lover’s.

“Scoreboard doesn’t lie,” you tell her smugly. “Ready for another round? I’m happy to put you out for the count anytime.”

Your team wins two points for a KO.
