Round two

“There is one thing I’m curious about,” Wonder Woman asks.

“Just the one?”

You trade kicks, punches, and blocks. You can’t seem to get past her defense, but she’s not able to get past yours either.

“Why didn’t you use me in the sex tape? You could’ve blackmailed both of us. Not to mention having sex with both of us.”

The question surprises you enough that the Amazon is able to tag you with a left jab. Even without superpowers it’s enough to rock your head back; the lady really knows how to throw a punch! You backpedal a couple steps and shake it off.

“Are you upset at having been left out,” you say with a grin.

She almost gets you with a snap kick, but you twist and take it on your thigh instead.

“Just trying to understand,” she replies without amusement.

You try a couple kicks of your own but she dodges them.

“Well because one, fuck that bitch,” you snap.

She bobs her head to the side like that’s a valid point, while still managing to block your feint-feint-punch combo.

“Two, you were sleeping so peacefully I didn’t want to wake you,” you say with a grin.

She rolls her eyes so hard you’re able to step in and nail her in the face with your own left jab, but she gets her hands back up before you can follow through.

You circle to your left and she turns with you. “Three, it would’ve given her a reason to want the tape released. I don’t know if she’d be willing to commit career suicide to destroy your reputation, but I didn’t feel like finding out.”

That one makes her think. You quickly reverse direction and circle to the right. Wonder Woman’s response is just barely delayed but it’s enough for you to land a kick to her solar plexus, knocking the wind out of her. She scrambles backward out of range.

“And four, when I take you it’s going to be on my terms, not Veronica Fucking Cale’s.”

You move after her to press your advantage while she’s off balance. But as you throw a hard cross at her beautiful face, she catches your arm and flips you over her shoulder. You hit the floor hard and roll into the far wall.

You realize she’s intentionally dragging things out, and the longer this goes on the more she adapts to her reduced strength and reflexes. You’d better wrap this up soon while you still have some sort of advantage.
