The speed was horrifying.
One moment Katerina was standing fifty meters away. The next she was on Eve, her enhanced movement leaving afterimages, her fist driving toward Eve's face with enough force to shatter bone.
Eve's instincts kicked in....her parents' knowledge surging forward without conscious thought. She twisted, felt the displaced air as Katerina's fist missed by centimeters, and created distance with a burst of succubus speed that surprised even herself.
Katerina smiled...a fierce, delighted expression that suggested the fight might actually be interesting.
"Good," she said. "You're not completely useless. This might actually be fun."
She came again, and this time Eve was ready.
What followed was brutal, technical, and beautiful in its violence.
