She leapt up high and spun with one leg forward and one behind, bent ready to kick. Time seemed to suspend while she was in the air. Her hair flew behind her, her arms bent delicately like wisps of smoke. The full moon shone brightly behind, silhouetting her graceful figure and illuminating a fiery look in her eyes.
His breath caught in his throat. He watched as her spin gained momentum— it looked almost like she glitched in mid-air— and let her kick all three men in one strike. She was tiny compared to them, but her kick looked extremely powerful. Two of the men fell back while the middle one staggered back several uneasy steps. She barely landed before she was in action again, moving in a blur around them, kicking off trees and lunging for their heads. She began walking towards me before the three men’s bodies even hit the ground.
