Your side

The latex covered woman elogantly sways beneath your clothesline, and goes for the obvious counter. Expecting her to go for the bodyblow early as she had against the Panther, you quickly move your looped rubber swatter to ensnare the cane blow you are expecting. This both works and fails, as you do feel the immense sting of the thrusting weapon into your side, almost winding you in the process, but it strapped through the loop opening as well. This allows you to twist and pull the overextended cane, disarming the suprised woman. She finally stops her smug smile, and regards you seriously.

Your side hurts immensely, and the sharp body blow seems to have slightly affected your breathing. But through the sacrifice you took away the Trainers best offense... and you think you know how to deal with her defense. You’ve noticed that while she can often easily sidestep around any attack, she seems to arrogantly sway even when it is unnecessary. And you know the flaw of swaying as defense... and will soon make her pay dearly for it.

You start with controlled swings, jabs, and grabs. None of them are all that powerful, and your main purpose is to observe and be certain when she will sway. On her end, she skillfully side steps, sways, or redirects your attacks with an open hand. She seems to be trying to make her way to her cane on the ground, but you stay in between. After a slightly harder than anticipated swing, she sways and returns a vicious backhand to your cheek, stunning you for a moment, and giving the gothic beauty back her smug grin.

Ahh... parallel attacks she has swayed back to get under about nine out of ten times. That means your next one will be where you execute your plan.
