Damsel is also tougher than she looks.

Every time Sunee punched her, Damsel's vision blurred and pain lanced through her head. But she bravely took the blows, letting Sunee fall into a predictable rhythm. Then, when the slave catcher got a little bit complacent Damsel twisted hard with her stomach and pushed up with her forearms. Somehow she managed to knock the asian girl off and spring to her feet.

Her head was still spinning and there were black spots in her eyes. Through more luck than anything, she managed to throw her arm out and clothesline Sunee on the way through. The slave catcher hit the mat with a yell of pain but jumped to her feet again.

Both girls were seriously woozy now. Warily they moved in to grapple each other.
