By the time Namasui got her on her
feet, Wonder Warrior was fully
awake, though still trembling in shock, and horrified by her foe's
despicable tactic.
A badly battered Amazon Champion, unaccountably facing her first defeat, wavered in a seeming trance, quivering in pain. The diabolical, ultra high pitched sonic waves continued to agonizingly bombard her senses. Uncertain of the means, she only knew the Dragon Lady had unleashed some terrible, unseen force to temporarily neutralize her near miraculous, Amazon abilities. As Namasui reached for her again, Wonder Warrior experienced a sudden unprecedented dread of a foe's brutality.
Grasping her now defenseless foe
in a brutal bear hug, Namasui lifted Wonder Warrior's large formidable
body clear of the floor. Wonder Warrior gasped in alarm. The helpless
Amazon's futile struggles were no more than an inconsequential
annoyance, that only amused Namasui.
Namasui'e
apelike arms tightened inexorably, crushing Wonder Warrior's battered
middle, with intensely painful, frightening pressure.
Caught in the
bear trap of
Namasui's mighty arms, Wonder Warrior
wriggled in feeble desperation. The terrible, relentless pounding in
her
head negated all possibility of resistance, leaving her remorseless foe
free to squeeze the life from her. Wonder Warrior had faced many
appalling dangers before today. She had been in many perilously tight
spots, that would have overwhelmed a lesser being, yet undaunted, she
always emerged victorious. But no other foe ever reduced her to
such horrifying helplessness, awakening in her shapely bosom fears
she never knew.
The awful pulverizing pressure
inevitably took its toll on the gallant Amazon Princess. Her glazed
eyes rolled, and her magnificent
body slumped limply, dangling powerlessly from the dwarf's tree like
arms.
A disillusioned Yetta half turned
away. A worshiper of strength and
success, she had little sympathy for weakness and defeat.
Yetta had never rooted for an underdog in her life! Unsympathetically,
Yetta wondered if her
extravagant reverence for the mighty Amazon Heroine had been
misplaced! Was her revered heroine a weakling doomed to defeat?
Yetta feared the answer!
Namasui loosened
her arms, and dropped her nearly unconscious foe. Wonder Warrior,
unknowingly stumbled in a half circle.
Namasui caught
her disoriented foe from behind, gripping her luxuriant ebony hair in
both hands. She wrenched Wonder Warrior from side to side, triumphantly
twirling her about, as though the mighty Amazon was a rag doll, than
effortlessly flung her to the floor.
