Alex felt the slam to her chest like a ton of bricks.  As she swung there, she coughed and gulped air the pain almost as bad as the pain in her skull.  She opened her eyes and saw the hunter and Liz going at it and she had to be impressed with Liz.  She also realized she couldn't just hang here and doing nothing.  She began to make the rope swing trying to grab hold of the nearest tree.  If she could free herself, maybe the two of them could overpower the hunter.  She managed to catch hold of a branch and she pulled herself to it.  Stupid thing was, now that she wasn't upside down, the blood draining back into the rest of her hurt like hell.  She grit her teeth and hauled herself up and draped her body over the branch.  Arms and legs hanging, she had to rest.  Between the pain and her blood recirculating, she was exhausted.
