The woman parried his arm with excellent precision, Batman was caught off guard, especially as her leg came down to axe kick his left arm and thrust ut down to his side. With his body's momentum suddenly shifted he was thrown off balance and before he knew what was happening his ankles were being taken out from under him. Batman felt his feet get completely swept as his body was in the air for a few brief moments as his back tilted toward the ground and landed hard with a solid thud.<br/><br/>The air was thrust from his lungs immediately upon impact, and gaining it back was going to prove challenging because the black cat-like woman was on top of him in a flash. In spite of the protection his suit offered, joints had to be flexible so as her knees dug into his elbows Batman winced slightly from the pain. He was still gasping for air when her hand wrapped around his throat. He could tell her claws were one good swipe away from opening his cowl up and shredding his handsome face. The best course of action for now was to play along and be at her whims.<br/><br/>As the woman hissed at him he flinched in his eyes, afraid of what she might do to him. This was a perilous, and erotic, situation to find himself in and it was not a common thing to be at the mercy of a woman for Bruce Wayne, especially when he was Batman. "How dare I? You challenged my authority, said I was welcome to try. Gotham is my burden to bear and no one is going to change that. Perhaps you just need that can of tuna and some milk you were talking about." Some of the gruffness of his voice had disappeared, but he still had enough to mask who he really was. Batman wanted desperately to reach into his utility belt, but her knees had him pinned effectively and while her claws were at his cowl he was not going to try use any of his grappling knowledge to get her off of him, the risk was too high.
