"Match Start!"
Killian received a rude awakening.
The girls closed in immediately as the command rang out. Kia's leg slammed against Jane's raised right hand, the block already in place like she had been predicting the attack.
The audience fell completely silent as the match already had its first move within the first second. No pacing. No conversations.
Killian leaned away from the wall. He had been concentrating when the first attack happened but it was only a blur to him.
He had been very wrong about that. "They are faster than I thought…" His words trailed off as he watched.
Kia didn't jump back after the first kick. She hooked her leg on Jane's arm, twisted her body, and sent another kick from her free leg towards Jane's side.
Gasps erupted from those watching as Jane stumbled back only three steps. Her hand lowered slowly.
