But she closed her eyes and braced for the impact. And she even grabbed onto his collar with both hands, because if it knocked her down, she'd either stay upright with her handholds, or even manage to pull him down with her.
Luckily, she managed to stay upright, but her cheek stung now-- that would become a bruise she'd feel for days, if she didn't put a Cure on it. But putting a Cure on was the least of her priorities. Her priority right now was putting this man on his back, so she could hit him more without him retaliating with a lot of momentum. She understood now that he was strong, and she was going to adjust accordingly.
So she kicked at his leg and tightened her grip on his shirt, attempting to push him down onto the mats.
