Amanda remained still, waiting for a moment. She had to play it all out just right in her mind. [quote] Surge forward, fake left punch, cut right into a lower leg sleep. Trip her up, making her fall onto her back. Follow it up with a spiral into a downward jab, left arm up to deflect any incoming attack, shielding face with fist. Right jab forward into diaphragm, knock the wind out of her. Summary; surprise attack using fake left jab, tripped onto back, substantial shock would stun her to make initial attack easy to counter. Block with left, jab using right hook into diaphragm, leaving her stunned and winded. [/quote] In a split second, Amanda surged forward then, sprinting at a high velocity before taking a large step, shooting her left arm forward halfway but then stopping, pulling back and then using her forward momentum to drop low and sweep at her opponents legs. Something metal was felt, Amanda's shin bone as it was, which added to the attack as it knocked both legs out from under the other woman. Then, she spiraled around with her continued momentum, shooting up her left arm, elbow down and hand up to cover her face to block any incoming attack, and then shot her right arm forward inbetween her foe's legs, and into her diaphragm.

[i]Amanda's did work but something was made quite clear as she had kicked at her shins knocking Xexa's legs out from under her but with a loud ping a that leg hit metal clear it wasn't visible. Xexa may had the wind knocked out of her but it didn't stop her from lashing out with hard enough kick to the gut to knock so she could quickly get back to her feet. [/i]

Amanda's arm blocked the blow for the most part, although it made her grunt from the force, although there wasn't much pain. Snapping her right arm down then, she grabbed her foe's ankle, and then rolled backwards onto her back, locking her leg around it and pushing it into a painful position
