Regaining her balance, Viola tries a new tactic. She feints a leap to Astri's left but at the last moment, twists in mid-air, aiming to tackle Astri from the right.
Astri's reflexes kick in. She ducks and rolls, narrowly escaping Viola's claws. Astri chuckles after seeing that Viola tried her own strategy.
"Trying to be smart by copying me? You have to be more creative than this." Astri says, and Viola growls in return.
When Viola charges again, Astri meets her head-on, not with brute force but with precision.
She catches Viola's paw mid-swipe, twisting it in a way that forces the panther to flip onto her back.
In a blink of an eye, Astri moves in, using a combination of pressure points and holds to keep Viola pinned. The panther thrashes, but Astri's grip is unwavering.
