Doubts were starting to form regarding this guy's sanity.
Lien let out a pained almost-whine as Vermilion's foot connected with her stomach, as a result of it wheezing and delaying her reaction to the whip, which, no surprise, hurt like hell. One lash was taken straight on while the third she partially deflected with her forearm.
She wasn't going to go down without a fight though. Or, preferably, down at all. Whether it was in regards to being tackled or losing the fight in general. Lien whipped around her opponent's form as he charged at her, using the short length of chain she had and dragging it across his shoulder as she did so. Following up was a forceful punch to the back of his head and a foot to his back. Best case, his initial momentum coupled with her kick sent him toppling over, even if that meant taking her down after. Worst case, he just got madder. In both meanings of the word.
