Kick Ilsa and free Meriem

Korak was on his fours. Knowing that his attacker was still behind him, he recoiled his left leg and kicked Ilsa in her belly a few yards away. Korak stood back on his feet and finished releasing Meriem. It was a big mistake. In a moment Ilsa was behind him and had her fingers on Korak’s shoulders. She pinched Korak’s large trapezium muscles in the most painful way. Korak groaned in pain and felt paralyzed by the searing pain. The pain was so strong that the apeman dropped his knife on the floor.. He could not move his arms to fight and remove the deadly fingers from his shoulders. Ilsa slowly pushed Korak down to his knees.

''Turning your back to the threat to save the woman you love. Love truly makes blind and foolish.'' Ilsa laughed as her precise fingers inflicted pain on Korak.

Korak felt the pain starting to freeze up his body. Perhaps he could shout at Meriem to run.
At least she would be saved. However he could also attempt one last attempt to escape the deadly hold of this woman.
