Try again another night?
Stage another mugging
Middle of the night, dark alley, blond taking a short cut, sinister figure, yadda yadda. The woman screams, loud and high pitched, echoing off the walls. You advance backing your victim up against the wall...
Suddenly a figure drops out of the sky, landing in front of you – you take a startled step back. “You should know I have very little patience for men who think a gun gives them the right to prey on women,” Wonder Woman says is a voice devoid of pity, as the would-be victim lets out a relieved sob.
Feigning surprise, you raise your pistol and fire several shots at both women. Your ‘victim’ lets out another high-pitched scream and presses up behind the heroine, as if the closer she gets the safer she’ll be. Wonder Woman looks almost bored as she easily deflects your bullets.
But it distracts her just enough that she doesn’t notice what your friend Carla is doing behind her back. As the revolver clicks on an empty chamber and Wonder Woman lowers her arms, an arm snakes around her waist and another around her neck, pressing a cloth over her face!
Startled, the Amazon gasps in a breath before she realizes what’s happening. She struggles in Carla’s grip, but her movements are already slower and weaker. Looks like the rumors are true – she is especially vulnerable to chloroform!
You step forward, dropping the gun and pulling out your own soaked cloth. But before you can close the distance Wonder Woman throws herself backwards, slamming Carla into the brick wall. Carla loses her grip on the heroine and slouches against the wall, the wind knocked out of her.
Yeah, you knew things were going too smoothly.
The warrior princess staggers forward, shaking her head to clear it, as you launch yourself at her and slam her back against the wall. Which unfortunately means slamming her into Carla again but omelets, eggs, etc.
Diana shoves you off her, and even weakened there's no resisting that kind of strength directly, but you manage to twist sideways so the force mostly goes past you. The sudden lack of resistance throws her off balance and she stumbles a step.
Which gives you the opening you need to grab her and press your cloth over her mouth. She tries to move away but trips over Carla's feet and you both fall to the ground. Diana lands on her back on the pavement, while you land on top of her - which is pleasant in its own right, but more important it forces the air out of her lungs so she has to take in another big chloroform-filled breath.
Her eyes go unfocused and she can't stop herself from taking one more breath of the sweet-smelling fumes. She grabs your arm and she's still strong enough to force your hand back from her face, but you let go of the cloth and leave it lying over her mouth and nose. She shakes her head trying to dislodge it, but the movements are slow and dreamlike. Her free hand reaches for the cloth, but by that time you've gotten ahold of her lasso. You loop the golden cord around both her wrists and force them up over her head. She lets out a small sleepy "Nooo" as you pin her wrists with one hand and grab the cloth on her face with the other.
