Black Canary VS Black Widow Black Canary POV I move into the large office and manage to retrieve the information Oliver wanted me to get for him. I put the disk in my pocket and prepare to leave the office As everything goes well I suddenly notice someone is here and I am no longer alone. "Black Canary, how predictable that you showed up here." I turn around and a woman with fiery red hair walks into the office. She is clearly in fantastic shape and she wears a suit that tightly covers her slender frame. Instantly I see the belt around her waist with a variety of weaponry. She must be the one they call Black Widow. "I already expected you to show up here. Surrender now and I will not have to bruise that pretty face of yours." She speaks with a confident voice while posting one hand on her hip. "Not going to happen Widow. If you want me that badly you will have to impress me." I say with a slightly playfull and flirty voice. "I kinda hopend you would say that." She replies and then draws a police baton from her belt. I instantly draw my two collapsible batons and with a flick of my wrists I extend them. As she moves towards me I put together my two batons to create a bo staff and block a hit from her police baton just in time. She pressures forward with some swift strikes, clearly trying to overwhelm me early. >>From the way she moves I can tell she is highly trained and amazingly agile like someone who has spent an entire life training Ballet. However my training with the League made me a formidable fighter and I am quite sure I can match her. I fend off her aggressive attack and then force her back with some strikes of my own. I perform a high swing which forces her to raise her baton to block, as she does I turn around and jab the other end of the staff towards her stomach. I see her grunt in pain as I strike her straight in the solar plexus. As she is clearly in pain I swing the staff again and manage to knock the baton out of her grasp. With both hands I swing the bo staff at her to knock her down and decisively end this fight. However as I do she suddenly ducks underneath my strike and before I can react she spins around and nails me right in the face with her heel in a perfect spinning hook kick. The impact causes me to stagger backwards and for a moment I see stars explode in front of my eyes. Another lightning fast kick knocks the staff out of my grasp and disarms me. I underestimated the redhead and she used that to turn the tables on me in a moment's notice. One second I almost had defeated her and now I am on the verge of getting defeated myself. Just in time I manage to recover and avoid the leaping punch aimed at my jaw. I manage to parry her flury of perfectly performed punches and kicks. I rely heavily on my Wing Chun training to deflect her blows as I manage to recover from the kick to my head. She leaps in the air with a perfect front flip and performs an axe kick, slamming her heel down at the top of my head or shoulders to either crush my skull or shatter my collarbone. I just barely manage to avoid the destructive kick with a swift sidestep. A moment after she lands on the floor from her missed axe kick she drops to the ground and delivers a sweep kick that hits me right behind my ankle and causes me to tumble to the floor. As I hit the floor I try to use the momentum off my fall to roll away. However I underestimated the speed of my opponent and before I can get up she crashes down on me. I get pinned on my back and she traps my neck between the crook of her knee while basically sitting down on my face. With my head trapped like it is stuck in a vice she seizes my left arm and tries to twist it into a keylock for a shoulderlock. I feel the massive power of her leg as she squeezes down on my head and neck while trying to dislocate my shoulder, however with a ton of effort I am able to wiggle my head free and spin out of her hold. We grapple intensely and I realize is highly skilled and nimble in groundcombat. She nearly is able to trap me in a kneebar but I manage to slip free, get behind her and wrap my arm around her neck, attempting to apply a sleeperhold. I have some trouble trying to get my arm under her chin and she keeps struggling to stop me. Pulling at my arm to create some space she suddenly bites me, sinking her teeth into my arm. As I try to pull my arm free she uses the back of her skull to hit me right on the nose as my grip loosens. Dazed from the impact she slips free from my grasp and we both get back to our feet. I move forward with a roundkick aimed at the side of her head, however while I do this she spins around and counters me with a spinning back kick, her heel crashing into my stomach like a battering ram and nearly folding me in half as the air gets knocked out my lungs. My stomach is spasming and for a few seconds I feel like I am unable to breath anymore, I resist the urge of my body to double over and collapse to the floor. Trying to buy time to recover I stumble backwards and she proceeds to execute another series of well timed punches and elbow strikes trying to overwhelm me. Somehow I am able to parrie and block her flury of strikes. As I suck air in my lungs I see my opening three seconds later and as her right cross is flying at my chin, I deflect it by throwing my left elbow upwards and across. Once the punch has been deflected, I extend my arm into a backfist. She takes the hit against the side of her head but immediately responds with a right cross which I trap and lower with my left arm taking the opportunity to strike her in the throat with my right hand, I see her eyes grow wide from shock and surprise and she coughs and gags from the shot to her throat. As she steps back I follow her and use the moment to slam two short, straight punches right against her chin that reel her. Seeing her stumble on her feet I follow up with a swift stomp kick right above her kneecap. She loses her footing and collapses to her knees as she is obviously affected by my strikes. Her nose is bleeding and I see blood covering her teeth as she looks at me with a defiant look on her face. Most people would have been down right now, however she is clearly nothing like most people. I move forward but in an instant she swipes her leg out and tries to sweep me off my feet. A bit caught by surprise I just barely manage to step back in time and avoid tumbling to the floor. She moves at me again but I intercept her with a hard elbow strike across the face that knocks her to a single knee. To my surprise she comes right back up with a strong uppercut to my gut that makes me grunt in pain. As I hold my stomach she hooks her leg long leg behind the back of my knee and trips me to my back. As I fall on my back she presses her hand on my chest and suddenly her wrist starts to glow. The pain is unbearable as I feel the electricity surge through my body. I yell in pain and realize that I am about to pass out soon if I will not be able to stop this. I just barely manage to retrieve and activate my sonic device. The sonic sound rips through the air and makes the redhead tumble back giving me precious seconds to crawl to my feet and get out of here. As I make my way towards it, the cry suddenly stops. I look at it and it appears that she has managed to throw a tiny disk like device that instantly disabled it. She runs at me and as I brace myself for a kick she suddenly leaps in the air and wraps her legs around my head. In a whirling motion she rocks me off balance and propels me to the floor. I fall on the floor while she lands in perfect balance on a single knee right next to me. She follows up with a strong punch to my head intending to finish me off, but I roll out just in time. As I stand there beduffled at exactly what just happened now. She makes her way over to me and launches an agile, jumping kick. The kicks connects against my chest and I get knocked backwards and fall on my backside. She has a look of deep determination on her face. I know her work is legendary and she is one of the greatest S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives ever. A small inner voice starts to tell me that I am out of my league against this woman and that I am going to lose to her. However almost instantly I remind the countless lessons about never giving up and get back to my feet. I ignore the aching pain inflicted from her devastating blows and I find a newfound determination to end this fight. I realize she is way more agile and acrobatic than me however if I can pressure her I might be able to make her commit to an attack that I can counter. Moving like I am a bit more hurt than I actually am I plod forwards. I make my way towards her and I see the kick I was expecting. As she comes in with a right roundhouse towards the side of my head, I quickly deliver a spinning hook kick with my left leg at the same time, thud dodging her attack and landing my heel flush against the side of her head. She is not out, but clearly in pain, so I follow up with a swift round kick towards her thigh that buckles her stance. And taking advantage of my close proximity to her, execute a slashing elbow at her face. She ducks low to avoid the elbow strike however I had expected this and as she does I already set up my next move. Cupping my hand behind the back of her head I pull her head down and wrap my arm around her neck, trapping the back of her neck underneath my armpit in a front headlock or also known as a guillotine choke. Bringing my arms upwards and arching my back I apply maximum pressure as my forearm is now pressing in her throat. I throw myself backwards and wrap both of my legs around her slender waist and pull her to the ground. Using the momentum of my fall backwards I am able to roll her towards her back and end up on top, straddling her with her head firmly trapped underneath my armpit. Arching my back and bringing my arms upwards I increase the pressure on her neck and I hear her make gurgling sounds as I am choking her. She struggles hard and for a moment I feel like she is about to slip out as her strong body is twisting and bucking powerfully in all kinds of angles in order to escape. With all my power I manage to hold her and squeeze down on her neck with everything I got. I arch my back as hard as I can and clench my teeth from extertion. Slowly I feel her body shutting down as my chokehold blocks the blood flow to her brain. I hear her make a loud sigh as she slips into unconsciousness and her body goes limp. Letting go of her I gently put her head down and look down at my defeated foe who is now unconscious. "You nearly got me there Widow. I hope I will not run into you again anytime soon. This little scuffle was a bit to close." I say with admiration as I catch my breath. "That said if things would be a little bit different I would love to get to know you a bit more intimately ... .." I can not help but lean forward and place a kiss on her mouth. As I see her start to stir I quickly get back to my feet and get out of here.
