24 - Breathless

A blast of sweat was thrown into the air as Valerie’s uppercut landed cleanly against Jessica’s jawline. With a pained grunt, the Nova Striker took a step back, stunned and clearly rocked. Valerie wasted no time and zeroed in, assaulting Jessica’s unguarded nose with a speedy one-two. Jessica took both hits square, and struggled to will herself back into the fight as the Ripper accosted her.

As she did her best to fight off the encroaching haze, Jessica managed to sling an emergency jab of her own at an incoming Valerie. The blonde was coming in hot however, and didn’t bother guarding as the jab bounced off her cheekbone. In return, Valerie slipped into point-blank range, slamming home a hard right into Jessica’s stomach. The raven-haired warrior went wide-eyed as the hit doubled her over, knocking the wind from her sails. Alarm bells started going off in Jessica’s head, and in a dire attempt to stifle her ravenous aggressor, Jessica reached out with both arms, trying to wrap them around Valerie.

Rather than step back, the Ripper welcomed the clinch with a wry look. Just before Jessica made contact, Valerie raised her right arm, snapping it securely around her victim’s muscular shoulders. Jessica latched on, and although she couldn’t pin down Valerie’s right arm, she did manage to constrict her left arm a bit. However, as Valerie took note, not enough, as she could still get some movement in the lower arm. Without missing a beat, Valerie pulled Jessica in as close as she could, and with a fierce roar, thrust her left glove forcefully into the nurse’s core.

The Nova Striker cried out loudly as another burst of perspiration was thrown from her. Leaning in, Valerie brought her crimson lips close to Jessica’s ear.

“Mmm…” Valerie whispered softly, accentuating her taunts with further blows to Jessica’s trapped midsection. “…Howzzat feel, luv? Enjoying the massage? How are those chiseled six-pack abs of yours holding up?”

“Oough! Ah-haugh!”

Each hurt sound Jessica let slip fueled the Ripper to continue to torture her, drove her to attempt to elicit another one, louder and more agonized than the last.

“Gotta…get her…off me…”
