Amanda wasted no time- she leapt to her feet.  If she could just hit his chest again she'd finish this battle before it got started.<br/><br/>Nova didn't try to rise instead he rolled over onto his back- an easy target!<br/><br/>"Let's see how much of you is man" Amanda snarled and drove her foot down hard towards the mechanoid's torso."<br/><br/>With a graceful twist Nova rotated his body out of the way of her attack-  her foot smashed down onto the concrete with more force than the floor could withstand.  hairline cracks flickered out through the stone.<br/><br/>"What?" She spat, alarmed by his speed.<br/><br/>It was a simple matter for him to grab her wrists and lock them tight in his steel grip.  A yank had her stumbling right into the path of a mighty kick.  There was nowhere for her to go as his foot connected with the side of her head.    Even her augmented, toughened body couldn't shrug off such a mighty blow.<br/><br/>She sagged to the floor- still locked up by Nova's hands.  A trickle of blood ran from the corner of her mouth as she desperately shook her head to clear it.<br/><br/>She was in trouble now- she had to break free!<br/><br/><br/>The announcer called out his verdict<br/>"Amazing- and that's why Nova 7 cost umpteen billion dollars to develop!<br/>Odds on Amanda to win 10:3<br/>Odds on the Mechanoid 5:1"<br/><br/>The crowd roared- those in favour of Nova 7 high fived and whooped while those who had bet on Amanda shook their fists and howled<br/><br/>"Get up you bitch- fight- break him- don't give up"<br/><br/><br/><br/>
