"Aargh! Grooargh!" he gasped, dropping the torch back in his pocket, while his opponent lifted him off the ground.
"Do you think you're the only one who's that strong?!" Jennifer giggled, throwing Layon forward and slamming him against the wall next to the bathroom front door.
Soon after causing him damage, the Koinobiont charged towards him, moving her arm down and loading a blow: the claws of her right hand crawled on the metal floor and etched sparks that helped make her subsequent attack more difficult to intercept.
Covering his eyes from the sparks with one arm, Layton failed to dodge Jennifer's claws and was hit in the middle of the chest.
A slash destroyed his white shirt and part of his jacket, which being open, did not suffer extensive damage, unlike his chest, on which a claw penetrated his flesh about an inch deep.
"Aargh!" Layton screamed, taking a step back and bending slightly forward after suffering the blow.
