Description

Naoko made the most of her burst of stamina, repeatedly flinging dragon-print leather Esmeralda’s way with a series of rapid, pecking attacks designed to harass and keep La Rosa off-step. Lithe, the police officer slipped in, snapping off a crisp one-two to Esmeralda’s cheek and eye, two quick pops before the hulking Spaniard could reply. Gradually, she was forced back under Naoko’s continued pressure. Taking a step back, Esmeralda attempted to shift gears, focusing on protecting herself. Raising her black gloves to her chin, Esmeralda followed Naoko’s swift movements, tracking the smaller woman who temporarily fell back as she prepared her next strike.

Patient, Esmeralda waited, ready to answer Naoko’s move. A couple tense seconds passed as neither woman budged. Right before she went into action, Naoko’s eyes narrowed very slightly, and she nodded her head subconsciously by only a couple degrees, almost imperceptible, as though she’d figured something out. As the Senshi dashed in behind a high step-in jab, Esmeralda internally fought her desire to cross-counter, instead shooting her gloves up in front of her nose to ward off the incoming snipe. As the jab collided with the block, the boxers locked eyes. Somehow, Naoko's facial expression almost seemed to suggest that she actually expected her attack to be blocked. Knowing full-well what would be coming next, Naoko bit her mouthguard preemptively and braced herself as she watched Esmeralda slide in low, around her outstretched left arm.

“…Mnn!”

A moment later, Naoko moaned in pain and winced as a battering ram of a left smashed into her midsection, the force of the blow knocking her back a couple steps. Through the pain, she maintained a stoic visual lock on her opponent, carefully taking note of the most minute of Esmeralda's movements the entire time. The bodyguard pressed inward, following the reeling Sniper with aggressive, stomping footfalls.

“…Hggk!

With a feral growl, Esmeralda capped off the succinct combination with a violent right uppercut that shot upward, flinging a shower of sweat and spit into the air as Naoko’s head snapped back.

I love your style! Not too exaggerated, and you really capture the impact of the punches nicely.
