Alcippe kicked off her sandals so as to enhance the speed of her movement. She wasn't exceptionally tall for an amazon at 5 feet 11 inches and weighed in at around 185 pounds. However what could not be seen was the high degree of skill that she had attained in the unarmed combat arts through which she had moulded her entire body into a single unified unit. With deceptive speed and grace she danced forward easily avoided the massive fist aimed at her face by side stepping to the right. Hercules' missed punch made him step forward slightly as he was off balance. Alcippe's small compact fist snaked out with blinding speed and struck the mighty man of power and muscle on the side of the neck sending a surge of nerve induced fire scortching into his brain. The blow stopped him dead in his tracks and his strongly muscled legs almost buckled. Before he had chance to recover Alcippe followed through with two palm strikes. The first sunk into his vunerable solar plexus causing him to grasp desperately for air and making his torso jack knife forward from the impact. This set him up for the second, which struck neatly him under the nose jerking his head back. Then Alcippe nimbly moved out of his range to access the damage she had do thus far.
