April took a deep breath, her sharpened senses locking onto Vance's movements.
Every shift in his stance, every breath he took—it all painted a picture in her mind.
"You sure you want to do this alone?" Jax asked, but April stepped forward without answering.
Vance chuckled. "Brave. But stupid."
"Since you want to fight him yourself. Here's the info we know of Vancer's Gear. Which is known as the cobra," Saya's voice echoed in April's left ear where a earpiece was located.
"He's abilities are Venom strike, Serpent Reflexes, Constrictor Hold & Lethal Fang. Venom Strikes– His punches deliver a paralyzing effect upon contact. Serpent Reflexes– He moves with unnatural speed and flexibility. Constrictor Hold– Once he grips a hold of you, escape is nearly impossible so watch out for it. And finally Lethal Fang– It's Vancer's ultimate ability, rumored to be highly deadly. That's all. Now go get him, little wolf."
Then, he moved.
Fast.
April barely had time to react before he was in front of her, his fist flying toward her ribs.
Dodge.
Her body moved on instinct. She twisted, feeling the wind from his strike graze her side.
Her foot shot out, aiming for his knee—
Too slow.
Vance twisted mid-air, catching her kick before slamming his elbow down toward her shoulder.
Echoing Effect!
April sensed the attack at the last second, throwing herself backward.
She skidded across the ground, heart pounding.
"Not bad," Vance mused. "But you won't last long."
April clenched her fists. He was stronger.
Faster. But she wasn't going to back down.
She bared her teeth. "Try me."
Vance grinned. "Alright, Wolf. Let's see how long you last."
He lunged again, faster this time. The real fight had begun.
